Chapter 314 Landing in Qingzhou, a detour in the back road
At the same time, various departments of the Navy received the letter from Feige.

After Zheng Chenggong chased after the remnants of the Qingzhou Navy of Cao Wei, he led his army southward, arrived at the mouth of the Yellow River, and landed near Le'an County.

At the same time, Xu Sheng's Jiaozhou Navy, Liu Rengui's Yangzhou Navy, and Zheng He's Western Navy, a total of more than 7 sailors and more than 800 naval warships, have already arrived in Donglai County, Qingzhou. Landing on a large angle from which the plate extends.

Langya County, Yangdu.

"Report...report to the general, Donglai County has fallen."

"What?" Cao Ren's complexion changed drastically. How could it be so fast? Even if the enemy navy came quickly, I have deployed heavy troops along the coast of Donghai County, and General Zang Ba is stationed...

"The enemy navy has [-] warships and more than [-] cannons bombarded it continuously for two days. A section of our city wall was directly bombarded. The enemy's [-] sailors landed wearing rattan armor. General Zang Ba lost two battles in a row. , and now Dongnae County has completely fallen into the enemy's hands."

"Where is Zang Ba now?" Cao Ren couldn't help asking.

"Reporting to General, General Zang Ba is now defending Beihai."

"Beihai?" Cao Ren heaved a sigh of relief. If Beihai was still there, his back path would not be blocked, and the frontal battlefield and the backpath of Cao Cao's battlefield would not be blocked either.

"Report...report to the general, the Yangtze River Navy under Zheng Chenggong has landed at the mouth of the Yellow River, Le'an County has fallen, and the enemy is dividing troops to attack Qi County and Jinan County."

"Zheng Chenggong was on the Yangtze River and was severely injured by Zhou Yu. He only had more than 100 warships and a few thousand soldiers. Where did the troops come from after attacking our Le'an County, and then divide the troops to attack the two counties?"

"Reporting to the general, Yu Dayou's Yellow River navy rushed to the rescue of Zheng Chenggong, and General Guan Tong who was stationed in Le'an County was killed by Zhu Ran."

"Hey."

Cao Ren slammed his fist on the crenel of the city wall, "Pang Tong is fighting me head-on, but he is advancing slowly, gradually encroaching on the surrounding counties and counties. I never thought that he would mainly fight in a roundabout way, attacking various cities with naval forces. Now it seems that Le'an County can't hold it, and Qi County and Ji Nan County can't hold it either."

"Then they can go south to attack Taishan County, rush to support the frontal battlefield, sneak attack the rear of His Majesty, or directly attack Beihai County and block our army in Langya County."

Cao Ren's face was very ugly. Although he was very strong in defending the city, he was no match for Pang Tong.

But if he is surrounded on both sides and the food road is cut off, the more than 3 soldiers and horses in his city will not help.

"Come here, send a message to His Majesty, asking if our army can abandon Qingzhou and withdraw to Jizhou."

Just as he finished speaking, Niu Jin, Cao Ren's lieutenant general, widened his eyes and said, "General, abandon the defense? Did I hear correctly?"

"You guard the city, but you have never taken the initiative to order to abandon it."

"Furthermore, the most important thing in Qingzhou is where the granary of our country of Wei is located. Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion was quelled, Qingzhou has farmed millions of acres of land. If we abandon it, our army will suffer heavy losses. Moreover, for this battle, we have hoarded a lot of food, grass and supplies. In Qingzhou, if the army retreats, these things will definitely not be taken away."

"General, think twice."

Cao Ren's face was miserable, "Do you think I, Cao Ren, want to withdraw?"

"Someone just wants to keep these tens of thousands of Northern Army elites for Your Majesty."

"The defense line of the three counties of Langya County, Taishan County, and Dong County, the general governor, has [-] soldiers and horses. It has only been a long fight now, and in less than half a month, as many as [-] people have been lost. The Shu army is here to destroy the country."

"Now that our army's retreat is cut off, we can only retreat. Otherwise, wait for the enemy to cross the Yellow River and capture the coast of Jizhou. In this way, our army will have no way of retreat and will be completely blocked to the south of the Yellow River."

"Our Wei State lost 40 elites, just like in the previous battle of Huainan, when Lu Su was captured, our Wu-Wei Allied Forces lost 10,000+ in that battle. Soochow's elites were exhausted, so there was no energy left to fight against them. The next battle to destroy the country."

"Now in Jiangdong, only the third governor Lu Meng's whereabouts are unknown."

-

Haiqu, a hundred miles away from Yangdu, is a small city along the coast.

On this day, when the sea was very stormy and the beach could not be seen clearly, thousands of soldiers stepped on the pebbles on the beach and pushed towards the shore.

"Great governor, you asked me to surrender to the Shu army, but you committed suicide yourself."

"Witnessing the loss of Jianye is not good."

"But it will be even more uncomfortable to witness the feeling of your suicide."

Zhu Ju slowly stepped down from the warship, and saw that the former army had pulled down the sentry towers on the shore.

"However, the only one who can rule the world today is the Shu army."

"Liu Feng's tactics are too powerful."

"Expedition across the sea, with the help of strong ships and guns, directly attack the beachhead, sneak attack the rear, and block the enemy's rear."

"In the past, I, Soochow, died at this battle law meeting. The hinterland of Kuaiji was attacked, Qiantang was captured, and the entire Jiangdong was divided into two from Qiantang."

"Now that Qingzhou's coastal defense line has been torn apart by our army, Cao Ren will definitely not go north to fight with us. In case of being encircled, he will withdraw to Taishan County. In this way...our army can easily capture the counties of Qingzhou."

"It's just the governor..."

Zhu Ju sighed, "After you killed yourself, you burned the raft with fire and floated the ashes in the sea, just to see Liu Feng rule the world?"

"I still want to witness with my own eyes, when Liu Feng's Shu army will fall."

"Report...report to the general, there are only a few hundred defenders in Haiqu City, within half an hour, our army will definitely capture the city."

"With Cao Ren's rigor, how could there be only a few hundred defenders left in Haiqu City?" Zhu Ju frowned slightly, "It must be old, weak, sick and disabled."

"not good."

"Come here, report immediately to Governor Pang Tong that Cao Ren will flee."

Dozens of miles to the south.

Langya County, Kaiyang.

After receiving Zhu Ju's letter, Pang Tong just stroked his beard and smiled, "Cao Ren was going to escape, so I knew about it a long time ago."

"If he wants to escape, let him escape."

"Here's an order to send all the troops on top, collect cities from all over the country, sail warships, and go up the coast. When they reach the mouth of the Yellow River, some of the warships will go directly to the upstream, and some of the warships will stop downstream."

"Block the waters of the Yellow River."

"If they fled north, they would have to cross the river. They won't be allowed to cross the river. Let's see how Cao Mengde can escape from here."

On the side, Huang Quan cupped his hands slightly, "Governor, it's better to send troops to directly attack the north, attack the counties along the river in Jizhou, and completely block Cao Cao's escape route to the north."

"No." Pang Tong shook his head.

"Cao Cao still has 30 to [-] fresh troops. If he is surrounded on all sides and is in a desperate situation, he will fight back desperately. Even if our army wins, there will be heavy casualties. We will leave them a way to go north. Just intercept on the river."

"Don't worry, everything is under someone's control."
