King of Liao at the end of Han Dynasty

Chapter 652
It is said that Li Lin took back Che Zhou and Zang Ba with almost no loss. The lower half of Xuzhou, and those who had no resistance from the city in a few steps, were all accepted by Li Lin, and even those who belonged to an independent army under Cao Cao, such as Xiang Zang Ba, lost a lot when they attacked Pengcheng , Li Lin waved his hand, and followed the reorganization to rebuild the battalion.

As for Sun Guan, Yi Li, Wu Dun and others under Zang Ba's command, Li Lin gave extra favors. They can continue to work with Zang Ba, but their military power will be greatly reduced. Li Lin bestowed the Liao Banner with the black letter in person, and he is considered a high-ranking general, but it must be quite different from the other Liao Banners with the black letter. Compared with Zhao Yun, Tian Yu, and Tai Shici, Zang Ba is not at the same level when compared with Zhao Yun, Tian Yu, and Tai Shici. Although the generals under Zang Ba's command are quite critical, how dare Zang Ba oppose Li Lin? He has never seen Li Lin's method of dealing with traitors, but he knows that Li Lin has been in the army for so many years, and he has never heard of anyone who betrayed Li Lin. As the saying goes, absolute obedience comes after absolute loyalty. At the same time, it also represents absolute fear. No one dared to betray Li Lin, which also shows Li Lin's methods, so even if Sun Guan and the others make a fuss, Zang Ba will keep suppressing him and dare not let him rebel.

Zang Ba was stationed at Xiapi, Che Zhou was stationed at Pengcheng, and Tian Yu commanded all the horses in Xuzhou and stationed troops with Xiacai. Although Li Lin won half of Xuzhou, there are not many real big cities, but the current Youliao army is powerful. , has reached the confluence of the lower reaches of the Yingshui River and the Huaihe River, approaching Shouchun, and Zhou Yu also attacked Cao Zhen in Shouchun, Cao Xiu, and Li Lin took Xuzhou. For the Cao family, it was a disaster. However, if the Youliao army came from the north, then this Shouchun would definitely not be defended. Fortunately, Li Lin had no intention of interfering with Jiangdong's soldiers and horses at all.

Not only these, Li Lin led the army to Xuchang, and returned with a big victory. He should have attacked Liu Biao's army immediately, and at least took Qiaojun back from Cai Mao's hands, but Li Lin didn't have so many. An Ran led the army to Xuchang, Only Ju Yi led his troops to Cai Mao, an unexpected place in Qiao County, where Cai Mao was contained, but what about Li Lin?Just sitting in Xuchang, the Youliao army pressed all the way to the border with Liu Biao, and did not move. Li Lin just wanted to use that strong pressure, and without any action, he had already crushed Liu Biao's soldiers and horses. It is the effect that Li Lin wants to win the battle.

What surprised Li Lin the most was Zhao Yun, who had already entered Nanyang. Li Lin was so angry that he directly burned the army into Jingzhou. Li Lin, who had no intention of Jingzhou, saw that Nanyang had already entered Well, what are you talking about, all the other groups stayed still, only Nanyang Zhao Yun and Zhang Yun fought hard all the way, attacking every city in Nanyang in the name of chasing and killing Chen Kai, and all the soldiers and horses in Nanyang are not easy to mess with , Wenpin, Huang Zhong, and Wei Yan naturally needless to say, and Mao Jie is a wise general under Cao Cao's command. It is not easy to mess with Cao Cao's elite soldiers of [-]. Although the soldiers and horses were overwhelming at the beginning, once Mao Jie arrived, they could no longer advance again. When they came, they immediately sent Han Hao to lead [-] recruits recruited in the Central Plains to support them. But how could these recruits compete with the Youliao Army or It was the elite of Cao Jun who were on par, and the soldiers and horses under Wen Pin's command were also unambiguous. For a while, Zhao Yun and Zhang Xi were also caught in a dilemma.

"Junyi!" In Zhao Yun's camp in Lushan, as the name suggests, although Li Lin dispatched Zhao Yun and Zhang Yun as soldiers, no matter whether it is Li Lin's trust and the prestige of the two, Zhao Yun is of course the main one, and Zhang Yun is the leader. As a deputy, and now Zhao Yun has a slightly sad expression on his face.

"Oh? Zilong!" Hearing Zhao Yun's voice, Zhang He on the side replied, although he is the deputy commander, but for Zhao Yun, Zhang He is willing in his heart, and in the battle with Wei Yan and Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun is also He has repeatedly turned the tide with his own bravery, between saving Zhang Yun and being in danger, whether in public or private, Zhang Yun admires Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun asked: "Junyi, how much food and grass do we have?"

Zhang Yun didn't think about it, and said directly: "Zilong, we have enough food and grass. My lord ordered us to rob the food of the big family in Nanyang, so we definitely have enough food, but this..." Nanyang was at the end of the Han Dynasty. During the period, it was second only to the existence of Henan Yin, that is, the place second only to the capital, and Wancheng, the county government, was second only to Luoyang. It experienced the looting of the Yellow Turban. Later, Zhang Ji attacked Nanyang, and Cao Cao competed with Zhang Xiu Nanyang, after several wars, Nanyang, like Luoyang, has lost its former glory, but there are still a lot of big families in this county, especially after the fall of Cao Cao, many wealthy people from the Central Plains hurried to Jingzhou. After entering Nanyang, he thought he had escaped Li Lin's notice. Zhao Yun's army who had entered Nanyang had no food at all, but Li Lin saw that these big families were so afraid of him, so let's rob them and make them really afraid. I am afraid that for the aristocratic families, Li Lin seldom has compassion, let alone these aristocratic families who escaped from his hands, so Zhao Yun's army will not worry about food and grass at that time, but although food and grass are important, this battle is not One can win with food and grass. Thinking of this, Zhang He didn't continue.

Zhao Yun nodded after hearing what Zhang Yun said, and said slowly, "I understand this!" Zhao Yun and Zhang Yun are not good at intrigue, they both use the righteous way to defend soldiers, if they confront the enemy head-on, they must be fearless, but Now Wei Yan and Mao Jie, who are on the other side, are good at surprise attacks. Zhang Xi has suffered from their losses twice, which has led to the decline of the Youliao Army's troops, and there is a momentum of turning from prosperity to decline, although Li Lin did not say to them What is the deadline for the two of them, but since Li Lin ordered Chen Kai to be taken down, don’t come back unless Chen Kai is captured alive, looking at it now, this is a way for Li Lin to avenge the people of Yangdi, but at the same time, it is also Li Lin One of the tricks for the army to enter Jingzhou, although Liu Biao was defeated, but the remaining power is still there, who would have thought that Li Lin, who originally wanted to collide with Liu Biao's main force and wipe out Liu Biao's troops, suddenly turned around and attacked Nanyang.

In the home game, Liu Biao is at a disadvantage, and Li Lin is at an advantage. Li Lin from the Central Plains has not been standing for a long time, and it cannot be regarded as a complete home game. For Liu Biao and Li Lin, they are fighting in the same situation first. However, Liu Biao's military strength is dominant, and it looks quite strong, but the value of soldiers lies in their strength and not in numbers. The Jingzhou soldiers who have already begun to corrupt from the inside, of course, cannot withstand such ghosts as Li Lin. Weapons of this age.

But Zhao Yun and Zhang Xi's entry into Nanyang is different. This is completely the enemy's home field. Whether it is Liu Biao or Cao Cao, they have taken root here for many years, and now the combination of the two parties is superficial, but under the same enemy's conditions Of course, the two groups of people have to be closely connected, and Wenpin, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, and Mao Jie are not good people. Even Tian Yu, who just arrived in Xuzhou, was tricked by Xu Xuan. Not to mention the two of Zhang He, fortunately, they were cautious, and the distance from Yingchuan was not far behind them, so they would not end up alone.

Zhang He said faintly: "Zhang Liao, Mao Jie and the others have completely figured out the way we use our troops. In the current battle situation, it may be very difficult to break through again. Even if it is to defend the few cities in Nanyang that we control now, it is not enough. easy!"

"If you can't fight, you still have to fight! Have you forgotten the command of the lord!" Zhao Yun gritted his teeth and said.

Zhang He immediately explained: "Of course I won't forget, I will definitely die as my lord, but now Liu Biao is still in Runan, we are stalemate in Nanyang, if Liu Biao suddenly counterattacks and attacks Xuchang, I'm afraid I won't be able to return in time! "

Zhao Yun's face turned gloomy, and what Zhang Yun said was of course not unreasonable. In order to support Zhao Yun, Li Lin sent over the soldiers recruited by Han Hao. It can be seen that Li Lin has no extra troops now, and Liu Biao is defeated. , but there is still an advantage in terms of military strength, not to mention that Cai Mao also won Qiao County, and has the potential to besiege Xuchang, but thinking about Li Lin's tone under Yangzhai City, Zhao Yun shook his head, Zhang Yun, did not see that scene , but Zhao Yun really saw everything. Zhang Xi didn't understand the reason for Li Lin's order, but Zhao Yun knew that Zhao Yun's eyes were firm, and he said slowly: "Don't care about the rest, as long as you resolutely carry out the master's order and pursue Chen Kai. , no matter where he fled! Don’t tell Chen Kai to catch him, and he will never look back!”

"No!" Zhang Yun's heart moved, and he quickly cupped his hands.

"Battle Lushan!" Zhao Yun sent an order, and then the battalions immediately prepared and rushed to Lushan, and in Lushan, it was the place where Mao Jie, Wenpin, and Chen Kai's coalition forces were stationed.

Knowing that Zhao Yun was coming to kill again, of course everyone sent troops to confront each other immediately. Now whether it is military strength or geographical advantage, it is Mao rank, and Wenpin has the upper hand. Naturally, they are not afraid of Zhao Yun and the others, but looking at the culprit of this war Chen Kai, everyone sneered at it, how could everyone not hate Chen Kai after doing such a thing as massacring the city, but Liu Biao did not order Chen Kai to be punished, so everyone had to calm down the atmosphere in their hearts. In fact, like Zhao Yun and the others, they knew that Chen Kai was They were also angry about Yang Zhai's atrocities, and Chen Kai was still his own general. Such a tangled mood made it easier for honest people like Wen Pin and Huang Zhong not to need Zhao Yun...
