Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 516 Consecutive Victories 2
A few days later, Gongsun Xu drove the captives and civilians in Anping City to other cities again. As for Anping, he left his confidantes to guard it. He had already attacked two of the big cities in Hebei. The enemy troops who are about to fight to the end will be surprised.

"My lord, the latest news." Zhang Fei rode his horse to Gongsun Xu's side to salute and said, "Yun Chang has repelled the Bohai garrison twice. The enemy general Han Rong tried to attack Yun Chang, but he was seriously injured by Yun Chang. Among them beheaded the enemy's general Han Meng, and Junyi led the cavalry to defeat the high-ranking army, and now they retreated again.

Wenyuan successively attacked four enemy grain transport teams in Le'an and Leping, burning countless grains and grass.The enemy's reinforcements in Qingzhou have not yet set off.Zilong and Ziyi are approaching us now, and they will be able to catch up before our army reaches Qinghe. "

"You just said that Zhang Liao burned countless grain and grass?" Gongsun Xu asked, "Who sent the news?"

"Uh, it's from Zhang Liao." Zhang Fei replied, "What's the matter? Is there a problem? Could it be that the news is fake?"

"Hehe, Lu Bu is dishonest." Gongsun Xu said with a smile: "In my opinion, he must have secretly led the army to join the battle. After capturing the enemy's food and grass, he sent someone to transport the food and grass back. How could this guy let go Let’s pass this kind of opportunity. Besides, Zhang Liao is a smart man, so he probably wouldn’t be so grandiose as to burn down the enemy’s food and grass, hehe, Lu Bu is really worthless.”

"So that's the case, what do I say?" Zhang Fei replied: "Before the division of troops, Zilong once said that he would try his best to seize food and grass, so it turns out that Wen Yuan is not reliable, so does this count as a trick to us. "

"Forget it, it doesn't count." Gongsun Xu replied: "Nowadays, only Lu Bu sends troops to help us, and we must give them some benefits. Besides, isn't this a common thing in the grassland? Forget it, it's Yuan Shao's anyway. Let him snatch things, as long as it's not too much.

However, I have to mention him. Order Zhang Liao to stay in Qingzhou to attack the enemy's food delivery team. If it is not necessary, don't enter Jizhou. Also, the aristocratic families in Jizhou should not move around . "

"The general understands." Zhang Fei nodded. Of course he knew that many aristocratic families in Jizhou had vital interests with him. His reputation is not very good, and he likes to plunder local people and aristocratic families the most.

The army continued to advance, and the next stop was Qinghe, and then Pingyuan. As long as these two cities were captured, the land of Jizhou would basically fall into the hands of Gongsun Xu, and it would be fine if they didn't attack Yuan Shao.

The army in northern Xinjiang was in a state of invincibility. Yuan Shao's army basically didn't dare to go out to fight in the field. Even if a small group of troops came to sneak attack, they were all beaten back. Gongsun Xu was determined to win Jizhou, so naturally it was impossible to give the opponent a chance to attack him.

Ten days later, Qinghe, Pingyuan and other places were captured, and now only Bohai, Julu, and Leling are left in Jizhou. Gongsun Xu has broken the enemy's plan to fight together and stick to the end.

The remaining three places are fighting on their own, and there is no momentum to guard the corners. Gongsun Xu does not have to worry that the enemy will unite to attack him. Next, he will concentrate his forces to attack Bohai. As the base camp of Jizhou, as long as the Bohai Sea is captured, the entire Jizhou basically has little to do with Yuan Shao.

Qingzhou, in Beihai City, Yuan Shao cursed people righteously, lying in Jizhou's elaborate arrangement was to slow down the pace of the Northern Xinjiang Army, so that he could spare time to annex the fruits of victory in Qingzhou, as long as he can fully control Qingzhou, he will then With the potential to confront the northern army.

But who knew that the Northern Xinjiang Army's progress would be so rapid that there was almost no chance for him to fight back.

"What's going on in Chang'an." Yuan Shao looked at Guo Tu in front of him and said, "We haven't done anything until now, do you want to watch us be beaten to death?"

"My lord, don't be angry." Guo Tu replied: "Chang'an has already sent [-] cavalry to march towards Bingzhou. This is a plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao. When the time comes, Gongsun Xu will definitely lead the troops back to rescue. My lord now only needs to gather a large army to prepare for a counterattack."

"Where is Cao Cao?" Yuan Shao asked, "Is he still unwilling to do anything? Could it be that he also wants to see me defeated and killed? Hmph, Cao Mengde, I think you want to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. Don't take my words seriously, and I will drag you into the water when the time comes."

"Don't worry, my lord, Cao Cao will definitely help us." Guo Tu said: "Lu Bu has also promised us not to interfere in this matter now. Our army has given him enough food and grass. If he is not sensible anymore, we will leave this matter alone." Disclose it to Gongsun Xu, and then we will see how he ends up."

"Lu Bu is just a reckless man, I can deal with him when I have my hands free." Yuan Shao said angrily, "What the hell is Yuan Shu doing now? No matter what I say to him, I belong to the same family. He even helps outsiders and refuses to help me. If I'm not here, what great things can he accomplish by himself, can't he even understand this truth?"

"Well, my lord, I don't know if I should talk about something at the end." Guo Tu replied: "The things in Yuzhou are not easy."

"If you have anything to say, what will the prodigal son do?"

"Yuan Shu is now occupying Yuzhou, Yangzhou, and Jiangdong. At this time, he is busy recruiting troops and hoarding food." Guo Tu replied: "From the situation, he is preparing to attack Xuzhou. I want to take the opportunity to expand the territory.

Moreover, I heard that he has already sent someone to contact Lv Bu, and Lv Bu seems to have obtained a large amount of food and grass from him. It seems that they have reached an agreement, which should be aimed at Xuzhou. "

"What? What does this guy want to do." Yuan Shao said in shock: "He has already occupied such a large territory in the south, and now Liu Biao in Jingzhou is also being suppressed by him. He is already the master of the south. Is it possible that he still wants to take Xuzhou? no.

What's going on in Jiangdong? Has that boy Sun Ce already taken over the land of Jiangdong? If that's the case, then Yuan Houfang has no worries, and he can attack Xuzhou freely. Unexpectedly, he developed so fast. "

"Sun Ce is rectifying the forces in Jiangdong." Guo Tu replied: "It is said that Yuan Shu has adopted a tacit attitude towards his independence, but Yuan Shu has a request that Sun Ce attack Liu Biao. Combined with Yuan Shu, he has promised, and now Sun Ce and Liu Biao are facing each other on the banks of the Yangtze River, and both sides are hoarding food and mobilizing troops."

"No wonder, no wonder." Yuan Shao shook his head and said, "I said that this prodigal son has refused to do anything until now. It turns out that he has his own plan. This guy really has a big appetite. If he is allowed to take Xuzhou, he will be killed that day." His territory is the largest, and he will still be adjacent to Qingzhou, even if I own both Qingzhou and Jizhou, Haihuasi will not be able to compare with him."

"My lord, this is a critical period. We should unite with all possible allies." Guo Tu said, "Yuan Shu probably wouldn't do anything to you. He won't be so stupid. Although he has a good relationship with Gongsun Xu, that It's all about interests.

After Yuan Shu's power increases greatly, Gongsun Xu will target him. The early bird is always the first to be shot, and the lord can take the opportunity to develop his own power and try to overtake Gongsun Xu. "

"That's right, that's exactly the reason." Yuan Shao nodded and said, "The one who laughs last is the winner, let them be proud for a while, and after my strength has greatly increased, I'll see how they fight with me.

How is the contact with those aristocratic families in Jizhou? Are you still waiting and watching? Hum, they were just hypocrisy at the beginning. Now that I'm not in Jizhou, do they think it's okay?I have their handle, even if they are willing to surrender to Gongsun Xu, it will be useless.As long as I send this information to Gongsun Xu, I don't believe that Gongsun Xu can tolerate them. "

"My lord is wise." Guo Tu said flatteringly, "Don't look at Gongsun Xu's current situation, how can he know the lord's strategy, even if he can win Jizhou, so what? If we counterattack back, we will quickly regain Jizhou. Hmph, Gongsun Xu is just a boy, he is good at marching and fighting, but this guy is just like his father, he only knows how to march and fight.

Those who achieve great things, who will not play tricks, Gongsun Xu is too young.If you give him a few more years to grow, I'm afraid he will be difficult to deal with, but now, hehe, the lord must be stronger than him. "

"Hmph, Gongsun Xu." Yuan Shao snorted coldly: "I have suffered so much from him deliberately in the past few years, in order to let them think that I am the kind of person who is difficult to become a master. It will definitely not be in vain."

At this time, Gongsun Xu had led the army to Bohai, and the city of Bohai was still so strong. These days, nearly [-] defeated troops fled into Bohai City. This was a negligence of Gongsun Xu.

After he captured other cities, he never expelled the defeated army, but recruited them all as civilian husbands. Who knew that the last few small cities fled without a fight, and all the defenders fled to the Bohai Sea with all their weapons and supplies.

At that time, Gongsun Xu was busy attacking the plains, so he couldn't spare his hands to solve this matter.Gao Gan sent a large army to attack Guan Yu at the right time, and finally took these defeated troops into the city.Now there are as many as 7 defenders in the city, and Gongsun Xu's army outside the city is only more than 6. If you want to capture Bohai, you may have to increase your troops.

However, Gongsun Xu is now gathering heavy troops, hoarding food and grass, and has elite soldiers at hand. He is just waiting now. Although there is enough food and grass in Bohai City, it will be exhausted one day. Besides, he is waiting now. Be patient and wait for Yuan Shao to send troops to rescue.

Siege battles do require a lot of troops, but in field battles, Gongsun Xu's [-] cavalry are enough to withstand Yuan Shao's [-] or even [-] troops. This is where Gongsun Xu's confidence lies and the advantage of the Northern Army.

The princes of the world are not idle. Ma Chao has already fought against the rebellious army in Chang'an in Sanfu, Sun Ce wants to cross the river to fight, Yuan Shu is busy expanding his territory, and Liu Bei is preparing his troops for war at this moment. It seems that the world is indeed very lively ah.
