Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Two days later, Sun Ce's army set off for Wu County, and Yang Tian sent nearly a hundred Sea King transport ships to send them there. At the same time, Yang Tian received good news, Gao Shun had led his army to the outskirts of Wu County. The final battle between Baiyun City and Wu County is just around the corner.

Although the area of Wu County is not half the size of the original Huiji County, if you want to occupy the whole county, it is not something that can be done in just ten days. The only reason why the two sides were able to fight a decisive battle so quickly now was that Wu County was in the center of Wu County, very close to Haiyan County. In order to solve the battle in Wu County, Guo Jia did not let the army advance on all fronts, but took a straight line assault and went straight to Wu County, which was naturally much faster.

According to Guo Jia's plan, it would only take five or six days at most to conquer Wu County, and now Sun Ce and the others would rush from Baiyun City to only three days, and Sun Ce's army would also participate in the final decisive battle, which would be very beneficial to reducing the losses of the Baiyun City army in the siege battle.

However, Guo Jia was not too optimistic about this battle, he was not worried about what big waves Xu Gong could make, but someone else.

……

At this time, another expeditionary force in Baiyun City also arrived at its destination, Guo Jia led Zhao Yun and Da Niu to lead a million troops in Yanzhou. This speed may be very slow compared to the flying troops, but if it is relative to the cavalry, it is definitely a god speed, after all, the ship and sailors are sufficient, and the three teams of men and horses take turns to sail, so that the fleet travels more than 10,000 kilometers per day, which is the flying class. It may not be possible to achieve it, after all, the flying class also needs to rest after flying a certain distance.

Guo Jia's army marched up the Yellow River and landed in the eastern county of Yanzhou. Although the Yellow Turban Army proclaimed itself a righteous army, after losing the three leaders of Zhang Jiao, this righteous army has become a chaotic army, from top to bottom. Hunger is everywhere, and eating is vividly reflected here. Although there are no natural disasters in Yanzhou at this moment, the weight of ** is still worse than natural disasters, almost all villages and towns are occupied by the Yellow Turban Army, and the Yellow Turban Army at this moment has no long-term vision. They only see immediate benefits. Burning, killing, looting and looting are all evil, and in this environment, no one can work with peace of mind and look around. All the fields were barren.

See this scene. The members of the two legions also felt a great sense of emotion in their hearts. At the same time, it also made them have a stronger desire to maintain Baiyun City, if there was no Baiyun City, maybe their current situation would not be much better than these people in front of them, right? Even if they can keep it on their own. But what about your own family? What about loved ones?

Of course, although people like Guo Jia, Da Niu, and Zhao Yun do not have the same understanding as those ordinary soldiers, standing at their height, they can see farther than these soldiers, and they know that only by breaking the current troubled times can they return peace to the people of the world. And this process needs them to achieve.

Although he had landed now, Guo Jia did not immediately let the army continue to advance, but camped in the same place, and then sent flying cavalry to the south to scout. Although they can continue to stay on the ship, wait until the target of the attack is determined before getting off the ship to raid, but after all, the ship is not as stable as the ground, after more than ten days of sailing, many of the soldiers' mental state is not very good, this is also due to the fact that they are all southerners, if they change to the northern landlubbers, sit on the ship for more than ten days, it is not certain whether they can stand up. Moreover, it was already afternoon, and even if they accelerated their march, it would be impossible for them to reach the nearest city.

The flying cavalry moved very quickly, and in less than two hours, they returned one after another, and they brought Guo Jia the latest situation within a radius of 1,000 kilometers, which also gave Guo Jia and the others a general understanding of the situation in Yanzhou.

Although Guo Jia had learned from Yang Tian that Yanzhou had been occupied by the Yellow Turban Army, the news was not comprehensive, was it completely occupied? Or is it mostly occupied? Although these seem to be trivial matters, they have a great impact on Guo Jia's next arrangements. If all of them are occupied by the Yellow Turban Army, it is very simple, directly command the army to push it in the direction of the most densely populated population, and then rescue the people who were enslaved by the Yellow Turban Army, and their goal will be achieved. But if there are still official forces guarding some towns inside, then Guo Jia will have to consider some influence. Whether these people are persuaded or intimidated is a question worth pondering. But one thing is certain, that is, it is absolutely impossible for any group of people to shine into their sight, these will be the population of Baiyun City!

And now, Guo Jia has determined one thing, that is, the current Yanzhou has indeed completely fallen into the hands of the Yellow Turban Army, at least in the Dongjun in front of him, because none of the towns that the flying cavalry who went to reconnoiter saw that war broke out, but every town was in chaos. The only explanation for this is that these towns have all fallen into the hands of the Yellow Turbans. If this were not the case, the Yellow Turban Army would never allow a town of imperial power to exist in this piece of land, and a siege by a large army was inevitable.

After Guo Jia thought about it for a while, he had a plan in his heart, called Zhao Yun and Da Niu to his side, and after giving them a few words, he went back to the camp alone to rest. If Guo Jia is the most tired person after these days of sea sailing, it is naturally the best to be able to sleep peacefully now.

Guo Jia went down to rest, but Zhao Yun and Da Niu couldn't rest, because Guo Jia had already arranged a task for them just now. Each of them led his best army and hurried into the distance as dusk approached. However, they did not travel in the heart of Yanzhou, but along the Yellow River in two different directions.

This is naturally due to Guo Jia's arrangement, and the reason for this is naturally because there are many villages and towns along the Yellow River, although the population of these villages and towns is not as large as that of the cities, but the combined number is also very considerable. The most important thing is that the kamikaze fleet is still on the Yellow River, and the huge Sea King transport fleet is still waiting to transport a large number of people! In terms of efficiency, it is only possible to plunder the population from the villages and towns along the Yellow River. And when these transport ships were full of Yanzhou people to Yizhou, it was not so convenient for Guo Jia and others, and it would take a lot of time to transfer the people to the shore of the Yellow River to board the ships.

Of course, the purpose of Zhao Yun's two teams is not only this, their final destination is the two cities. Although the flying cavalry had detected the general situation around before, the detailed information could not be found by flying around the sky twice. When they arrive at these two cities, they will conduct a detailed reconnaissance of them to see if they are worth attacking. The value in their eyes now is naturally not how much wealth or population there is in the city, but whether the city is suitable for defense after being captured. If he can hold it, Guo Jia doesn't mind building a temporary stronghold in Yanzhou.

Having a stronghold in this place naturally has great advantages, although it is temporary, but this is just Guo Jia's own definition, as long as the city is occupied, the system can not care whether this is temporary or not, the most important point is that the teleportation fee can be determined by itself. You must know that within a state, the minimum teleportation fee can be adjusted to one copper coin, although now Yanzhou and Baiyun City have stepped out of the range of a week, and the minimum teleportation fee has also been greatly increased, but it is only a hundred copper coins, that is, one tael of silver, which is definitely much lower than one tael of gold across the border. In the past, when he was fighting in the Wa Kingdom area, it was limited by this minimum teleportation fee that Yang Tian had to give up the idea of transferring the Wa people on a large scale, after all, Yang Tian was absolutely unwilling to exchange one million taels of gold for one million people, and now if he could exchange one million taels of gold for 100 million people, Yang Tian would wake up laughing when he fell asleep.

However, it is not easy to occupy a city that can be teleported in the chaotic Yanzhou, because once attacked, the city's teleportation array will strike, which is a bit unreliable for the population transportation task that requires very high stability, which is why Guo Jia will bring hundreds of Sea King giant ships when he sets off.

Although it is difficult, Guo Jia has no intention of giving up, compared with ship transportation, teleportation is definitely much more convenient and fast, a primary teleportation array can transmit nearly a million people every day, although the hundreds of Neptune transport ships can transport nearly 10 million people each time, but the time required to go back and forth is nearly a month, and its efficiency is less than one-third of that of the primary teleportation array. Therefore, as soon as Guo Jia arrived in Yanzhou, the first thing he did was to find a city suitable for transporting people.

Not long after Zhao Yun and the others set off, it was completely dark. And as they set out, the kamikaze fleet on the Yellow River and the massive transport ships also split up, although they advanced together. In less than dozens of minutes, the two teams of Zhao Yun and Da Niu encountered a battle.

It is not very accurate to say that it was a battle, because it was a battle that they took the initiative to provoke.

Zhao Yun's target is a third-level town, this town will not have a population of more than 10,000 under normal circumstances, but now it is obviously an abnormal phenomenon, because this is a town that is regarded as a stronghold by the Yellow Turban Army, there are four or five thousand Yellow Turban Army in the entire town, and the people who have been abducted by them here have reached as many as 30,000, and these people are all the population of the surrounding nearly ten villages and towns. It's just that now the population of this town has skyrocketed, but it is completely a bleak atmosphere. Although there are tens of thousands of ordinary people, they dare not resist the oppression of these thousands of Yellow Turban Army, their strength is not good, resistance is equivalent to suicide, no one does not cherish their lives, so they choose to forbear.
