The Three Kingdoms: Steamed Buns and Pickled Cabbage, I Became the Emperor

Chapter 96: Tao Qian's Two Armies Enter Guangling
Cheng Yu heard the number Ye Chen reported.

My jaw dropped in surprise almost hitting my instep.

He originally thought that there was not much black gunpowder, and couldn't help but feel it was a pity.

No wonder the lord didn’t take out such a good thing before.

but.

You think so.

There can't be many of these divine objects.

The idea of ​​using this to sweep away all the princes is probably impossible.

Who would have thought.

There are so many.

but.

Cheng Yu thought it was too much, but Ye Chen didn’t think it was too much at all.

Doesn't he want to get a bunch of black powder?
But I really can’t do it!

One is the source of black powder.

It can only be obtained randomly by relying on special items from the reputation mall.

Now he only has ten tons of black gunpowder in his hands.

It sounds like a lot, but it’s really not enough!

The black powder in his hand was more powerful than TNT and high explosives of later generations.

A hundred and eight thousand miles away.

In this era, there was no white sugar, so it was impossible to increase the power.

The only way to increase the power is to increase the dosage.

The one that just exploded.

The content of black powder in it is as high as ten kilograms.

In modern society, ten kilograms of black powder would have probably caused an earthquake.

But in the Eastern Han Dynasty, due to technological reasons, it could only have such great power.

"My Lord, you told me this thing because you are going to use it against Tao Qian next time, right?"

Cheng Yu calmed down and thought of the purpose why Ye Chen brought him here.

This kind of magical weapon is definitely a magical weapon to deal with Tao Qian.

"Well, Zhongde, as an important strategist under my command, there are some things you need to take into consideration when making your plans."

Ye Chen nodded. Cheng Yu guessed correctly. This was the purpose of bringing him here.

Cheng Yu had to take black gunpowder into consideration when thinking about countermeasures.

Maybe it will work wonders.

--------

The second year of Chuping, the beginning of the first month.

Tao Qian of Xuzhou ordered his general Cao Bao to lead 30,000 soldiers and horses to rush all the way from the direction of Jianling and station the troops in Quyang.

Also.

He also mobilized 30,000 troops from Pengcheng, led by General Zhao Yu, and stationed them in Huaiyin.

at this time.

Tao Qian's 60,000-strong army was stationed on the edge of Guangling.

Xuzhou city.

Mi family.

"Brother, it seems that Tao Qian is really going to take action against Ye Chen this time!"

Mi Zhu's face was full of worry.

This time.

Tao Qian dispatched a total of 60,000 troops, including 20,000 of the most elite Danyang soldiers.

The army was led by Tao Qian's trusted general Cao Bao.

It can be said.

Tao Qian was about to reveal all his secrets.

Highlight someone who comes with bad intentions.

"In my opinion, it's hard to say."

"Tao Qian may not really attack Guangling County!"

Mi Fang expressed his speculation.

This time.

Tao Qian seemingly dispatched an army of 60,000 to threaten Guangling.

But it is hard to say whether a real fight will break out next.

Zhang Chao previously had 30,000 troops.

They were completely wiped out by Ye Chen in one battle.

Ye Chen now has 50,000 armored soldiers under his command.

Tao Qian wanted to capture Ye Chen with his 60,000 troops.

It's a bit whimsical.

Cao Bao was Tao Qian's trusted general.

But his ability to command troops is average, and his martial arts skills are mediocre.

Compared to the powerful generals under Ye Chen.

Far worse.

and so.

Combining the above information.

Tao Qian was probably just making a gesture for Ye Chen to see.

Tell Ye Chen not to go too far and not to push his luck further.

simply put.

It's just to show off his muscles to Ye Chen.

Tell Ye Chen.

Brother, I'm not someone you can easily mess with.

Don't bother me if you have nothing to do.

the other side.

Xuzhou, Chen family.

"Tao Qian is really old, he has lost his ambition and can only play some tricks!"

Chen Gui saw Tao Qian’s various arrangements.

Smiling disdainfully.

He could also see Tao Qian's general intentions. He stored troops in Quyang and Huaiyin.

It seems that if we advance we can take Guangling, and if we retreat we can defend Xia Pi!

in fact.

It's just a paper tiger, just for show to Ye Chen.

He wasn't prepared to take action at all.

Use 60,000 troops to intimidate Ye Chen.

It seems that Tao Qian is really afraid that Ye Chen will beat him.

Chen Gui was a leading figure from a local aristocratic family in Xuzhou.

Tao Qian's methods are too clear.

When the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out.

Tao Qian therefore made important use of local noble families and others.

Relying on the power of local noble families, he suppressed the Yellow Turban Army.

At the same time, he used huge benefits to recruit Zang Ba and others.

After he has secured his seat in Xuzhou.

Zang Ba and others were directly sent to guard Kaiyang, the gateway to Xuzhou.

Simultaneously.

They are a local family in Xuzhou.

Also suffered suppression.

All the key positions in Xuzhou were replaced by Tao Qian's direct descendants from Danyang.

Tao Qian is still good at playing some conspiracies and tricks.

It can be said that he is a master in this field.

Once the fight really starts, it will be a matter of strength.

He still doesn't have the courage.

Just like this time.

It seemed that he was going to defeat Ye Chen with the force of thunder.

in fact.

It’s just to show Ye Chen my strength.

If a real fight broke out, he still didn't have the courage to start a fight directly.

"hehe!"

"Sooner or later, such people will hand over Xuzhou to others!"

Chen Gui shook his head and looked at Tao Qian with disdain.

Engage in these ridiculous conspiracies and schemes.

It’s okay for their family.

after all.

Their family has no soldiers.

But if he really were to face Ye Chen, he would suffer a great loss.

This person is not one of them, a descendant of aristocratic family.

He is a member of the Yellow Turban Army.

The Yellow Turban Army had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under its command.

Tell you a story? ?
How could it be so easy to make Ye Chen surrender easily?

Tao Qian, you still think things are too simple.

He really thought so.

Is Ye Chen a Tibetan tyrant?
Just as everyone was analyzing the situation in Xuzhou and Guangling.

A team of fast horses galloped through the city of Xuzhou.

Brought the latest battle report.

Countless people saw this scene.

Everyone was speculating what had happened.

Guangling.

Let’s go back two days.

Guangling County, County Magistrate's Office.

"My lord, Tao Qian has gathered 60,000 soldiers and is heading towards Guangling. He is so aggressive!"

Gu Yong said with a smile.

Although he sounded serious, he didn't look worried at all.

It was obviously a teasing to Tao Qian.

Wang Can and others sat down with Ye Chen.

Hearing this, he laughed.

Zhao Yun, Taishi Ci and other generals.

His face was full of excitement.

He looked eager to try.

after all.

The battlefield is their destiny.

The battlefield is where they achieve success.

"Zhongde, what do you think?"

Ye Chen sat in the top seat and glanced at the direction of Quyang and Huaiyin on the map.

He looked at Cheng Yu with a questioning look.

Tao Qian when he was fighting with Zhang Chao.

Don't send troops to ask for benefits.

Wait until Zhang Chao is killed by himself.

After he occupied Guangling.

But we have to send troops to attack.

I have to say, it's very funny.

"My lord, Xuzhou is a place of war on all sides."

"In addition to facing Qingzhou, Gunzhou, and Yuzhou!"

"We also need to release Guangling County."

"After all, our Guangling County is in the south of Xuzhou. If we go one step further!"

"After occupying Yangzhou, Tao Qian's door is wide open!"
