Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 472
At the end of February, Liu Xie's army finally marched to Puyang.Due to Yuan Shao's cross-cutting, the entire battlefield in Yanzhou was simplified, and with the transfer of several families, it gradually became clearer.

The two armies of Xun You and Jia Xu retreated to Juping to wait for Liu Xie.After the merging of the three armies, with Cao Cao's tacit cooperation and unimpeded sphere of influence, they traveled all the way to Puyang, East County.For this reason, Liu Xie couldn't help but want to give Cao Cao a compliment.

Send troops to fight a battle?
Stop Liu Xie's army in Xuzhou, so that it cannot join forces with Lu Bu?

Don't be kidding, let's not say that the army of the Han Dynasty has more than [-] people, not counting Liu Xie, Sima Yi, Xun You, and Jia Xu, two great men who have been tempered by troubled times and are well-known in the world, just talk about the lineup of generals There are also three generals, Zhao Yun, Xu Huang, and Tai Shici, and Li Yan, Zhang Xiu, Zhou Cang, and Liu Pi can only be reduced to the second tier.

Moreover, the Han army's food, grass and supplies were donated by the big bosses in Xuzhou. Their pockets were full, and they rushed all the way with high morale.

Let the hungry soldiers whose eyes are starting to turn green confront this elite army, let alone whether they can win the battle, even if they win, what good is it to contain them at the border of Xuzhou?
Staying on the border of Xuzhou, the Han army can easily get funding from Xuzhou, and once there is an incident in Yanzhou, they can still move around, making Cao Cao hard to guard against.

Therefore, for this kind of battle that is destined to be lost no matter whether it is won or lost, Cao Cao simply chose to be blind and shy.All the Cao troops acted as if they hadn't seen this army, allowing the Han army to swagger on their territory, hoping that these soldiers would quickly enter Puyang, which was already in a mess, and the chaos would increase.

As for Liu Xie, he also thought about stationing on the border of Xuzhou, so as to achieve the situation of being a horn with Lu Bu and making Cao Cao suffer from the enemy.But after listening to the opinions of Xun You and Jia Xu, he could only give up this very good strategy and rush to Puyang to join Lu Bu as soon as possible.

After all, Liu Xie's roots are in Chang'an and Guanzhong, and he cannot be detained in Xuzhou forever.Moreover, what Lu Bu did in Puyang already made Liu Xie feel a little panic.He had no choice but to once again embark on the road of being a nanny and Dinghaishenzhen, using his unique status as emperor to quickly suppress and smooth out the internal disturbances in the chaotic Puyang.

As a result, Yanzhou, which was chaotic and disorderly, became clear in an instant after Liu Xie's force was dispatched: the power of the Han Dynasty was concentrated in Puyang, while Yuan Shao lined up in the north of the river, waving the flag and shouting, Cao Cao's nest In the easternmost part of Yanzhou, become a hungry red-eyed wolf, always ready to bite back and take back his Yanzhou.

In this way, Yanzhou's combat power suddenly returned to the situation before the Yanzhou Great Change, and became the Han Dynasty VS Cao Cao.

Because, as soon as Liu Xie arrived, Yuan Shao's military deterrence pressure was reduced too much.The reason for this is that the vulgarity cannot reach the worst vulgarity: No matter how intimidating Yuan Shao is, Yan Liangwen Chou would not dare to fight Liu Xie with real swords and guns.Because, he is the son of heaven, the most legitimate boss of the Han Dynasty!Unless, Yuan Shao also personally went to the sideline and yelled out that he would betray the Han Dynasty.Otherwise, the role of those two armies would be very embarrassing.

But the real situation is not as simple as it appears on the surface.

As soon as Liu Xie stepped into Yanzhou, Yuan Shao also actively changed his strategy.The two troops of Yan Liang, Wen Chou, began to sneak into Cao Ying, and successively, food, grass and luggage continued to flow into Cao Ying: although they could not fight Liu Xie openly, they have now been stripped of Yanzhou Mu by the Han Dynasty. Cao Cao has become a hob meat, and he has long since put on the skin of a rebel in troubled times, and he fought a mess with the Han Dynasty.

As a result, when Liu Xie's army really arrived in Puyang in early March, the situation in Yanzhou still became a Han army VS Cao Cao and Yuan Shao that a fool could understand...

As soon as he took the first step into Puyang, Liu Xie saw a scene that made him furious.

From the battle reports of Xun You and Jia Xu, Liu Xie already knew that Puyang, which was once regarded by Cao Cao as the governor of Yanzhou, was still in disarray by Lu Bu who was determined to go his own way.But when he really stepped into Puyang, he suddenly realized that he had returned to the time when Dong Zhuo's soldiers from Liangzhou wrecked Chang'an when he first crossed.

There are barren fields and starved corpses everywhere along the way. People are so hungry that they peel bark, dig grass roots, swallow mud balls and even start to eat dead people. Surrounded by hunger and death.

Wherever the army passed by, the counties and counties were either abandoned cities or closed their gates and refused to accept them.At first, Liu Xiegang thought that the common people were shocked by the rebellious soldiers, and they didn't even dare to recognize the Han army, but then he discovered that these cities were defended by the Han army!

It was a gloomy afternoon, and Liu Xie, who was on the march, suddenly heard a report from a scout that there were sounds of fighting three miles away.He immediately ordered Xu Huang to restrain the troops, and took Zhao Yun, Tai Shici and Li Yan's more than [-] five-sense guards to rush forward to investigate.

Walking to the front, Liu Xie's eyes were covered with blood red, half of which was stained red by the profuse blood on the ground, and the other half was filled with extreme anger!

I saw about [-] cavalrymen wearing the uniform armor of the Han army, looting a village downstream.Three dismounted soldiers carried out a small tank from a house, smashed it with stones and saw the yellow grains scattered down, those soldiers who looked like demons immediately let out earth-shattering cheers.

"grandfather!"

A boy with long hair got out from the haystack, cried and ran to an old man, shaking his bloody body desperately.But the old man could never wake up. Just a moment ago, the old man hid his grandson in the haystack.A soldier came on horseback, and a sharp spear mercilessly tore open his abdomen.

The cry of the boy attracted the attention of another cavalryman, and he turned around and galloped in an instant.Immediately after, a cold light passed by, the boy's cries stopped abruptly, and the young body collapsed limply, lying next to the old man's body in a pool of blood...

"Help!"

A woman ran wildly with disheveled hair, and behind him was a soldier laughing wildly, flapping the steel knife in his hand indiscriminately.The woman ran towards Liu Xie's direction, but when she saw more than [-] troops rolling in front of her, she seemed to lose all strength in her legs and collapsed on the ground.

"Your Majesty, that's Lu Bu's Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry!" Li Yan immediately recognized the identity of this troop, and galloped forward to rescue the woman.

However, Zhao Yun and Tai Shici's movements were surprisingly consistent, they drew the bow and drew the arrow at the same time at the same speed.At the same time, the two bows and arrows, like shooting stars chasing the moon, pierced through the soldier's eyes and shot out!

However, even if the two archers under heaven shot at the same time, the woman's life was still not saved.Just before the bow and arrow shot into the soldier's eyes, the spear in his hand had already penetrated into the woman's back...

Liu Xie saw with his own eyes that although the woman was terrified, at the moment before she died, her face was like a rock carving, full of numbness, hollowness, and lifeless ashes. Her black pupils seemed to contain hatred and anger. All the strength of anger has been lost, and there is only grief and helplessness for this world.

Looking at the frenzied massacre and the horrific tragedy, Liu Xie felt as if a big stone had been pressed on his chest, and then burst suddenly: He admitted that in this troubled world, he firmly believed in a cruel fact, that a person can even kill When you are not responsible, you will feel very happy!Human beings who have lost their moral shackles and indulged in their desires are demons more terrifying than wild beasts!

He didn't even blame those Bingzhou wolf riders, because the long-term troubled times made them suitable for plundering and slaughtering as their way of life.At the same time, he also knew that moral preaching alone would not be able to solve the problem at all. As long as this troubled world existed, he would not be able to completely save them from their sinful lives.

The only way to end this era of chaos and evil is to use your relatives to help the world!

There must be absolute strength first, and the law and the land can restrain the animal nature, bring the beast back on track, and then gradually use moral teaching to subtly influence it.

"Your Majesty, are we going to just watch like this?" Tai Shici, who had recovered from his serious injury, suddenly turned red on the face of Bronze facing this scene.And Zhao Yun, who has always been very measured and low-key, now also has a hint of urgency to attack.

Liu Xie, whose eyes were already red, suddenly felt an indescribable relief after the anger broke out in his chest: he can forgive those Bingzhou wolf riders who have turned into demons, but at the same time, he also admits that since he has become a demon, he will Should have the consciousness of going to hell!

So, he shouted loudly and roared with an anger that seemed to shock the world: "Attack, kill them all, I will take the heads of these Bingzhou wolf riders to Puyang to meet Lu Bu!"
