Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 811: Marquis Wen Breaks Out 1
Two days later, in Xuzhou, Lu Bu, who retreated to Xiapi, was finally forced to break through.Cao Cao followed the advice of his counselors and sent Cao Ren to lead an army to store water in Yishui and Sishui, preparing to use the force of the flood to break down Xiapi.Lu Bu, who had been hesitating to break out of the siege, immediately ordered the whole army to prepare after hearing the news. After all the horses and dry rations were ready, Lu Bu ordered the three armies to prepare to go north to Bingzhou.

Cao Ren took away part of Cao Cao's elite, causing a shortage of troops surrounding Xiapi. At this time, Yuan Shao, who had originally planned to send troops to support the Xiapi battlefield, actually ordered the army in the north of Xuzhou to be shrunk and ignored. The battle in Xiapi could be regarded as a trick for Cao Cao. If Yuan Shao hadn't personally promised to send a large army to help attack Lu Bu, Cao Cao would not have sent Cao Ren to store water under such a pretentious name, let alone make Xiapi There is a hole in the encirclement circle.

In fact, how did Cao Cao know Yuan Shao's current difficulties? In such a big Qingzhou, only half of Yuan Shao's territory is left now.

"My lord, Cao Jun is catching up." In the wilderness, Lv Bu led his cavalry and ran towards the north, and Zhang Liao caught up behind him and reported: "The enemy general Xia Houdun and Xia Houyuan led [-] cavalry to catch up with the rear of our army. If they entangle you , our army will definitely slow down."

"A mere Xiahou, what can I do?" Lu Bu said angrily, "Wen Yuan, you just open the way ahead, and I will kill these two people. Remember, go to Mount Tai and announce that you are ready to pick us up at Mount Tai. As soon as we arrive at Mount Tai Rest in the territory for a day, and then forcefully break through the enemy's defense, our army can enter Jizhou safely, and Cao Cao will have to weigh it if he wants to continue to pursue."

"The last general understands." After Zhang Liao took the order, he immediately led 1 elite cavalrymen under his command to accelerate forward. His task was to open the way for the army. If [-] people are equipped with the northern Xinjiang standard cavalry equipment, I am afraid that thousands of people will have to be sacrificed in order to break through the defense of Xiapi.

Half an hour later, Lu Bu led his army to catch up with the large army. Xiahou Dun and the others almost caught up with Lu Bu's rear army, but at the critical moment, Lu Bu led five thousand cavalry to kill them. Within half an hour, more than 20 school lieutenants and more than 200 soldiers of the enemy army were killed. Xiahou Dun wanted to entangle Lu Bu with his bravery, but he was almost beheaded on the spot.

Qingzhou, Beihai territory, Zhao Yun and Tai Shici led 7 cavalry to meet Gongsun Xu here. At this moment, there are more than [-] gathered in the northern border of Qingzhou, and the cavalry is no less than [-]. The large army that has been eyeing Yuan Shao is now confronting Yuan Shao's army in the north of Chengyang.

"Pease the people in the city and surrender the nearby towns." In the big tent, Gongsun Xu looked at the generals in the tent and said, "Yuan Shao has occupied Qingzhou for several years, and he is deeply rooted here. Yuan Shao's minions are all over Qingzhou, and it is still a bit difficult to take Qingzhou completely in a short time.

Many aristocratic families in Qingzhou have a lot of misunderstandings about our northern border army. I don’t want them to come forward to oppose me at this time. Ziyi, you are from Qingzhou and have a good reputation in Donglai. I will appease Qingzhou. I leave it to you. If you really encounter stubborn resistance, I hope you can deal with it as soon as possible. "

"The general understands." Tai Shici nodded and said, "Our Northern Frontier Army has never been soft-hearted."

"Yuan Shao retreated to Chengyang, and there are still more than [-] troops under his command. They are gathered in Chengyang, Langya, Donghai and other places at this moment. That is to say, Yuan Shao still has the power to counterattack at this moment. If I give him a chance to breathe, I'm afraid it will cause too much trouble for us to win Qingzhou. I will send an order to the affirmative to let him send his troops south and push Chengyang.

In addition, Guo Jia was ordered to send the [-] troops assembled in Jizhou to the south immediately to support Zhengfang. The soldiers are very fast. Yuan Shao is now in chaos. Our army must take advantage of the victory and pursue it. "

The generals in the army immediately went down to do business after receiving orders. After Gongsun Xu arranged the affairs in Qingzhou, he picked up an urgent letter on the table. Lv Bu, who once shocked the vassals of the Kwantung region and was invincible all over the world, is now a bereaved dog. Alas, but it’s interesting that you tricked me into bringing disaster to the east. Do you want to use the strength of my northern border army to force Cao Cao back? Haha, you The timing was good."

Gao Shun led a [-]-strong army, and with the cooperation of [-] front-runners, they captured Le'an, Jinan and other places one after another. After receiving the order of Gongsun Xu, they gathered [-] reinforcements from Jizhou, and then continued southward to approach Chengyang. In order to defend the last line of defense in Qingzhou, he also deployed [-] troops in Chengyang. The Xinjiang army will move south quickly.

The battle in Xuzhou is now coming to an end, and Cao Cao has achieved the expected results, but what he didn't expect was that there was a change in the middle, so that Lu Bu almost fled to Mount Tai, but fortunately, he had already made arrangements. At this moment, there were only less than [-] cavalry left under Lu Bu's command. Even if they entered Mount Tai, they would be exhausted. As long as Lu Bu was stopped at that time, the battle would be completely over.

On the southern border of Mount Tai, Lu Bu once again led his cavalry to repel Cao Cao's [-] pursuers. During the scuffle, Lu Bu also lost a lot of troops. If it wasn't dark enough for large-scale battles, I'm afraid this battle will have to continue.

Zang Ba led 1 people under his command to support Lv Bu, and the two armies converged into the territory of Mount Tai. However, at this moment, an army has already marched from Shanyang to the north of Mount Tai, and it happened to block Lv Bu's way to the north. Lv Bu wanted to continue If they go north, I am afraid there will be a very difficult battle.

In Le'an, the Beijiang army built several large camps by the sea to protect the docks on the seaside of Le'an. The Beijiang navy continuously transported Youzhou soldiers and horses from the sea to Qingzhou. After Gao Shun took charge, he came here to handle military affairs.

"My lord, is he still hesitating?" In the big tent, Guo Jia looked at Gongsun Xu's back and said, "Whether he is dead or alive depends on the lord's thoughts."

"If I kill him, I'm sorry for the old friendship, and the soldiers and horses under his command may all be confiscated by Cao Cao." Gongsun Xu nodded and said, "If I don't kill him, I'm afraid there will be endless rumors, and Cao Cao and others may take this opportunity to forget about themselves. Splashing dirty water, it's really a bit of a crisis now, hehehehe,,,,,, "
