Chapter 429: Take the county lightly
The Jizhou Assassin History Department is located in Yecheng, but Yecheng is located in the southwesternmost location of the entire Jizhou, close to the location of Sili Prefecture and Yuzhou, which is conducive to the Assassin History to go back and forth between Luoyang and Jizhou in peacetime, but at this time Yuan Shao is plotting Han Fu's territory, Han Fu in order to prevent Yuan Shao led several more trusted subordinates and 100,000 troops stationed in Hejian County's governance - Lecheng.
Due to the progress of the game, it has not been long since Liu Fu changed the assassination history to the state pastor, although the position of the assassin has increased a lot with the decline of the Han family, but its rights are much more difficult to obtain than the state pastor, and this is the case with Han Fu, the assassin of Jizhou.
Relatively speaking, although Jizhou is relatively solid, and the strength of the counties and counties is not weak, but at this time, Han Fu was not able to fully integrate these forces and achieve the Cheng dΓΉ of his arm, which is also the main reason why Han Fu did not have enough confidence to deal with Yuan Shao.
However, it was said that Yang Rui and Han Fu had already exchanged letters several times, and Yang Rui naturally knew the situation of Han Fu's commander soldiers and horses stationed in Lecheng County, Hejian County, so he made the decision to attack Yuan Shao.
Of course, it would be best if there was a chance to persuade Han Fu to act with him, but Yang Rui also knew that the chances of such a situation were not very high. As for Pingyuan County to face the attack of Yuan Shao's army, Yang Rui had already been mentally prepared to temporarily lose some cities, and his bottom line was to keep Pingyuan City from losing.
With Cheng Yu and others stationed in Pingyuan City, Yang Rui was very relieved, believing that Yang Rui's harassment in Bohai County would appear as soon as it appeared. In addition, Yuan Shaojiu could not attack the plain city. His army will no longer be advancing further into the southern part of Plains County. Otherwise, Yuan Shao really didn't care about the safety of his nest.
In order to meet each other just in case, Yang Rui still arranged his Ge boat and sailors on Jishui to prevent Yuan Shao from threatening Jinan and other counties in Qingzhou south of Jishui. Compared with the already vast surface of the Yellow River, Jishui is even wider than the Yellow River in this section, which is more conducive to the fleet to block Yuan Shao's possible river crossing operations.
"Cheng Yu, Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Wu Anguo, Chen Lin, the safety of Pingyuan City will be handed over to you and a few others, and at the same time, you don't have to care about the gains and losses of other counties in Pingyuan County, as long as there is Pingyuan City. He Yuan Shao can't sit still! β
Taking advantage of the fact that Yuan Shao's army had not yet reached the border of the plains, Yang Rui ordered Zhang Ning to temporarily command the cavalry, and he drove the Daofeng Flying Carpet back to the plain city, and explained to Cheng Yu and others again.
"No!" Cheng Yu and others responded in unison.
In fact, even if Yang Rui does not participate, there should be no problem for Cheng Yu to deal with the situation at this time, but the relationship between Cheng Yu and Yang Rui at this time has reached the last level, in fact, since the end of the plot of the Yellow Turban Uprising, Cheng Yu and Yang Rui have already followed the relationship, and dealing with Yuan Shao's attack is a potential subjugation task for Cheng Yu to completely submit to Yang Rui!
It is for this reason that since Yang Rui arrived in Pingyuan County, Cheng Yu has hardly helped Yang Rui plan a strategy. At most, it was just a reminder to Yang Rui from the side, and he did not independently provide Yang Rui with any forming strategies.
Of course. Yang Rui is not clear about the potential subjugation task, just like Cheng Yu's original potential follow-up task, Yang Rui is also unclear, and he doesn't even know that Cheng Yu is already in a follow-up relationship with him at this time, but he just thinks that Cheng Yu should not leave lightly.
After placing the rear in place, Yang Rui returned to the county seat of Qixian County in the north of Pingyuan County, and merged with Zhang Ninghui to lead more than 15,000 cavalry to the county seat of Xiuxian County, Bohai County. After Yang Rui's investigation, at this time, the cavalry of Yan Liang and Wen Chou of Yuan Shao's vanguard department was about to enter the territory of Pingyuan County.
It is undeniable that Yan Liang and Wen Chou do have extraordinary strength, and even when Yang Rui appeared on the Daofeng Flying Carpet, he was discovered by the other party, Yang Rui noticed that one of the leading generals had surrendered his gaze to himself on the Daofeng Flying Carpet several times, but it was not clear whether that person was Yan Liang or Wen Chou.
Previously, when Yang Rui returned to Pingyuan City, he also asked Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, and Wu Anguo, if they appeared in front of them with the Dao Wind Flying Carpet, if they were careful, they could also find the target in time, but if the distance was too far, or if they didn't focus on observing, there was also the possibility of missing it.
From what Gao Shun said, Yang Rui also generally has a certain understanding of the strength of Yan Liang and Wen Chou, when he was discovered, the distance should still be more than 500 meters, which is not close, so it seems that the strength of Yan Liang and Wen Chou should be higher than Gao Shun!
Therefore, before Yang Rui left, he also specially told Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, and Wu Anguo not to act alone with Yan Liang and Wen Chou until they had to do it, and to ensure their own safety if they really wanted to do it! If the territory is lost, it can be snatched back, if a few generals are lost, it will be irretrievable, at present, Yang Rui only knows that the soldiers can be resurrected, but he has never obtained the news about the resurrection of the generals
"My commander 3,000 cavalry soldiers went to the north gate to make noise to attract the attention of the other party, and you took the opportunity to release the Heavenly Spirit Fire Rain skill at the south gate, and after the city gate was lost, the commander of all the remaining cavalry rushed into the city and took the city!"
Before arriving at the county seat of Qixian County, Yang Rui used the Daofeng Flying Carpet to investigate the situation around the city in advance, the security level of the city is not very high, combined with the situation detected by Cheng Yu and others before, there are about 20,000 soldiers stationed in the county seat of Qixian County. So after Yang Rui returned, he divided labor with Zhang Ning, preparing to seize the county seat of Qixian County in one fell swoop.
Although the cavalry is not suitable for siege, as long as it has the powerful skill of Zhang Ning Tianling Fire Rain, the problem is not very big. Even under the opponent's city, the casting distance of the Heavenly Spirit Fire Rain will generally be much farther than the range of the bow and arrow, as long as the Heavenly Spirit Zhang Ning casts the Heavenly Spirit Fire Rain skill and lasts for a period of time, no matter how strong the city gate is, it will collapse!
Unless it is an imperial city like Luoyang City, even ordinary bows and arrows can cover the casting distance of the Heavenly Spirit Fire Rain with the help of the tall city wall, so that the archers on the city wall can balance Zhang Ning's Heavenly Spirit Fire Rain skill, and it is obviously not possible to use a small county like Qixian County, which is also the main reason why Yang Rui brought Zhang Ning with him.
The county seat of Qixian County belongs to the most southwestern prominent corner of Bohai County, almost completely sandwiched between Pingyuan County and Hejian County, so it was in a state of martial law from the beginning, but after a long time, Yuan Shao's soldiers who guarded the city would inevitably have some slackness, and these soldiers did not even expect to be attacked actively.
"Kill!"
"Those who sacrifice the city will not die!"
ββ
After Yang Rui led the crowd around the gate of the north city of Qixian County, there was a commotion, but there was no substantial siege, and all of them stood at a safe distance from the city wall, but this sudden situation still attracted the attention of the guards in the city of Qixian County.
"There is a situation at the north gate, hurry up to help!"
"Concentrate all and head to the North Gate!"
"Go to the North Gate to see how it goes"
ββ
Perhaps because he had never been attacked and harassed, Yang Rui's clamor outside the north gate of Qixian County had a good effect, not only the reserves in the city were quickly attracted over, but the soldiers on the other sections of the city wall were also attracted to the vicinity of the north gate.
"Whoosh"
"Crackle! Boom"
"Ahh
"Run! Yes! β
ββ
At this time, Zhang Ning was commanding more than 12,000 cavalry soldiers to arrive outside the south gate of the county, and after standing in a protective formation, Zhang Ning released the Tianling Fire Rain skill on the south city gate tower without saying a word, and soon the south city gate and the city wall on both sides were affected by a burst of chickens and dogs, and the soldiers guarding the gate in the city gate were directly simmered by the sudden fire!
"Don't harm innocent people, don't damage houses and property, and violators of orders will be dealt with by military law! Kill! β
"Kill!"
"Rush!"
ββ
Zhang Ning's Heavenly Spirit Fire Rain skill only lasted for about a quarter of an hour before he stopped, because at this time, the South City Gate had already collapsed in the fire, and after the flames in the corridor behind the city gate gradually disappeared, Zhang Ning waved his army into the city of Qixian County.
Due to the lack of infantry to attack the city, Zhang Ning led more than 10,000 cavalry soldiers to attack the city city one after another, and did not control the city wall or attack the inner city of Sanfu, but attacked back and forth in various parts of the city to kill Yuan Shao's soldiers, and Zhang Ning himself led a part of the cavalry to kill directly to the north gate, and put Yang Rui and another 3,000 cavalry into the city.
Although the number of Yuan Shao's guards in the city is more than 20,000, but the average level is only about 4 orders, and the sudden occurrence of the incident and the lack of a general commander, it is difficult to resist the cavalry commanded by Yang Rui and Zhang Ning.
Seeing that the general trend has gone, soon the county order of the county of Qixian also raised the white flag and took the initiative to dedicate the inner city of Sanfu, so far the county was taken down by Shun, Yang Rui and Zhang Ning led the crowd to clean up the battlefield without mentioning, after rough statistics, the total number of Yuan Shao's troops killed in the first battle of the county exceeded 10,000 people, and Yang Rui's own loss was only more than 500 people, and he was soon resurrected by Yang Rui using plot points.
Of course, Yang Rui also found more than 30,000,000 gold coins, more than 50,000 units of food, and a lot of various equipment and other items from the inner city of Sanfu County, but these items are a little worthless compared to the annihilated Yuan Shao's soldiers, after all, the main purpose of Yang Rui's trip is to eliminate Yuan Shao's living force and cause chaos in Yuan Shao's rear!
So after taking the county seat of Qixian County, Yang Rui did not stay long, and then took advantage of the situation to pounce on another nearby county seat in Bohai County-Dongguang County! (To be continued......)
