Humane Yongchang

Chapter 239 A Pot of Porridge
Soldiers are very fast.

Chen Sheng led a rapid march for three days, and in the early morning of the fourth day, Chuantuo County entered Liang County without any repairs, and directly attacked Yan County.

With a single drum, Yan County was broken!
Chen Sheng entrusted the army to the commander of the first regiment, Chen Qi, and personally led [-] elite soldiers, carrying only three days of dry food, and took it directly to Shangqiu, the county town of Liangjun!
Early morning of the sixth day.

Chen Sheng's troops arrived in Shangqiu, and while Liang County still did not know the information about the entry of the Red Army, they sent [-] warriors to infiltrate Shangqiu City in batches.

In the evening, before Shangqiu closed the city gates, Chen Sheng suddenly led his troops out, and they cooperated with each other, and took Shangqiu in one battle!

The process is as easy and smooth as digging into a bag!

This is the end.

The news of the entry of the Red Shirts spread like wildfire. Liang County was shocked and Yanzhou was shaken!
Meng Tian's troops stationed in Dangshan, then the whole army set out, and rushed to Shangqiu City in the starry night!
Just as Chen Sheng can see the importance of Liangjun to the Yanzhou war situation.

Meng Tian can also see it!
Moreover, Xuzhou Ren Xiao's soldiers had already taken the opportunity to enter Shanyang County in the northeastern part of Liang County and also belonged to Yanzhou County when Chen Sheng divided his troops to attack Chenliu and Yingchuan.

Today, the existence of the Dangshan Camp is only to restrain Ren Xiao's army from left and right with Zhao Tuo's troops, and it has long lost the significance of resisting Ren Xiao's army from entering Yanzhou!
There is a saying that the two evils are the lesser of the two evils. Compared with containing the soldiers of Ren Xiaojun, it is of course more important to prevent Chen County from annexing Liang County and cut off the back road of Dangshan Camp!

Evening of the seventh day.

Chen Qiling led the main force to Shangqiu.

Chen Sheng released a large number of exploration horses in the direction of Dangshan, preparing to face Meng Tian head-on!

And just when Meng Tian's troops left Dangshan, a group of troops entered Pei County from Renxiao's camp in Shanyang County, turned to Jiyin County and Chenliu County, and went straight to Handan City, north of Chenliu!
The original situation of the enemy and the enemy was still clear in the Yanzhou battle situation.

Since the Red Army officially set foot in the central part of Yanzhou, the chaos has turned into a pot of porridge!

You have me I have you!
It is difficult for the commanders of all parties to analyze the overall battle situation, even with the battle reports from various troops and horses.

……

Taishan County, Yanzhou Prefecture Barracks.

"Report!"

A messenger rushed into the tent with a quick step, holding a scroll of silk in both hands: "Report to General Qi, Liang Jun has an urgent report!"

Lu Zheng, who was sitting at the desk above the handsome tent and reading the military situation, waved without raising his head, "Bring it up."

"only!"

The messenger stepped forward, presented the silk book to the shore with both hands, and bowed down.

Lu Zheng grabbed the silk book and opened a quick scan of ten lines at a glance.

only one glance.

He couldn't restrain his anger, and raised his palm to slap the case in front of him.

It was only when the palm of his hand was about to fall on the table that he restrained his anger with great difficulty, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm down.

It's easy to get angry.

Difficult to control anger!

Wei Liao, who was working in the first office on the left side of the tent, saw his terrifying appearance with red cheeks and blue veins bursting out from his head.

It's not hard to speculate!

Xuzhou Ren Xiao and Meng Tian fought for seven or eight months, but failed to break through Meng Tian's line of defense.

Right now, even if Ren Xiao made a comeback and attacked Liang County again, it would be difficult for him to defeat Meng Tian's army!
And even if Meng Tian was defeated and Liang Jun fell into the hands of Ren Xiao, Lu Zheng would not be so rude.

Because before again, they have deduced a variety of trends in response to the situation in Yanzhou.

Among them is the speculation that Ren Xiao broke Liang County and united half of Yanzhou's territory...

Remove any arrogance.

There are still soldiers and horses around Liang County that are capable of attacking Liang County, and only the Chen County Red Army is left!

As for the Yangzhou Yellow Turbans...

Since last year's defeat at the hands of Chen Jun's Red Army, he has yet to breathe a sigh of relief.

Coupled with the fact that the Bolang Army is steadily recovering the lost ground in Yangzhou, Yangzhou Sima Yan is too busy to take care of himself, how can there be any spare energy to attack Liang County?

But that doesn't make sense!

Wei Liao rubbed the bamboo slips on the table, her eyes flickering and fell into contemplation.

Based on his previous analysis of Chen Sheng, after this person took Chen Liu and Yingchuan, he would either squat and watch the tiger fight, or attack Qiao County as a buffer zone for fighting against the waves.

In terms of winning Liang County and Chen County, although the benefits are far less than the disadvantages.

Judging from the past behavior of Chen Sheng's son, he should not be so short-sighted...

Not as he expected.

After Lu Zhengping calmed down, the first sentence he said was: "Chen Jun's army has invaded Liang Jun and has already descended to Shangqiu!"

Wei Liao nodded thoughtfully, and after narrating his own analysis, he concluded, "I'm afraid there's no secret about this matter!"

"What else is there to say?"

Lu Zheng sneered coldly, and said angrily: "This son has great ambitions and plans, and he must want to take advantage of the opportunity of my king's division and the Taiping Road rebellion to swallow my Yanzhou to become self-reliant!"

Wei Liao pondered for a few breaths, then nodded reluctantly, expressing his approval of his statement.

In their position, although Yanzhou is large, they know it like the palm of the hand. Just by looking down at Yanzhou's enemy and our situation, it is very easy to analyze Chen Sheng's strategic intention to capture Liang County and use it as a bridgehead to swallow Yanzhou's territory!

But even so, Wei Liao was always suspicious that there was something else going on in this matter!

Because Liang County is stationed by Meng Tian's troops, it is far better to take Liang County than to take Qiao County, which is empty of troops!

No matter how bad it is, it is easier to turn around and attack Yuzhou, which has just lost [-] soldiers, than to visit the muddy waters of Yanzhou!
Wei Liao is trying to find the thread at this time.

However, the more Lu Zheng thought about it, the more unpleasant he felt, and he whispered with a gloomy expression: "Duke Wei, in your opinion, can Meng Tian be able to stop the army of Chen Jun's thieves?"

Wei Liao glanced at him, feeling a little hesitant, but after pondering for a few breaths, he shook his head slightly and said, "It's hard to say, Meng Tian's military use is calm and airy and has the style of everyone, but Chen Jun's troops are backed by Yingchuan, Chen Jun, In the three counties of Chenliu, there is no shortage of reinforcements and food, but Mengtian's food supply is cut off, making it difficult to fight for a long time!"

"In my opinion, Meng Tian's victory over Chen Jun's soldiers is easy! It's difficult to completely defeat Chen Jun's soldiers!"

When Lu Zheng heard this, his expression became even more gloomy.

Once Liang County is lost, Jiyin County will no longer be able to protect it. In addition, Shanyang County and Pei County, which have been captured by Ren Xiao...

The huge Yanzhou, in the hands of their father and son, is less than two or three out of ten!

The position of state shepherd lives in name only!
Seeing his gloomy expression, Wei Liao couldn't bear it, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, for today's plan, the only way is to protect Meng Tian's troops and horses first, then go north to merge with Wang Jian's troops, and slowly plot it..."

In all fairness, Lu Zheng did nothing wrong.

During the Taiping Road uprising, three soldiers and horses besieged Yanzhou. It was he who took up the responsibility of defending the land. He devoted himself to dealing with the three soldiers and horses of Taiping Road, so that the people of Yanzhou would not be poisoned by Taiping Road.

Wei Liao witnessed how many all-nighters.

Wei Liao has never missed many early mornings that are so sleepy at night.

Lu Zheng has done all the duties of a courtier.

Even his responsibilities are far beyond his power!

But if the manpower is not as good as the number of days, he can do anything.

Lu Zheng pondered silently for a long time, and finally shook his head bitterly: "Since your father has handed over the responsibility of defending the land to me, then I shall live and die together with Yanzhou!"
