On April 22, the sixth year of Jingtai, the Caizhou army divided into two groups and attacked one after another. .

The army of southbound troops crossed the Feishui River along the southern section of the southern tip of Gaobei within four days, and rushed for more than 200 miles, attacking Shansang (Mengcheng) overnight. After a night of down, Bozhou was shocked.

On April 25, Yuan Huaiqing stayed Yuan Wenbai to guard Shansang, and led his army to the north along the Wo River to attack Chengfu. The shocked Bozhou War Army garrison was in chaos. After a quarrel, Shang Yunliu led 10,000 War Army men to reinforce Chengfu.

This time, the Caizhou army attacked Chengfu and seemed a little weak. Until the late Shang Yunliu reinforcements arrived at Chengfu, the Caizhou army still could not conquer Chengfu.

When Bozhou was relieved about this, he never thought that the real killer move was still behind.

On April 29th, the main force of the Caizhou Army sneaked into Luyi from the northeast of Chenqiu along the northeast of Shenqiu. Before the Luyi garrison could react, he threw Luyi away and inserted into Zhenyuan. When Zhenyuan was also shocked, the main force of the Caizhou Army arrived at the foot of Qiao County, Bozhou Prefecture on the third day of the fifth month and launched an attack.

On the night of the sixth day of the fifth month, a mutiny occurred in the county of Qiao County. The rebel army opened the city gate. The main force of the Caizhou army occupied Qiao County with the seventh day of the fifth month before the reinforcements from Luyi and Zhenyuan came over, and Liang Xu was killed.

Yuan Wuwei led his army out of the city on the eighth day of the fifth month, ambushed the reinforcements of the Jiehua Army from Zhenyuan, Luyi, and defeated the Jiehua Army, and killed 3,000 enemies and captured more than 5,000 people.

At this time, the Yuan clan fully demonstrated its talented side. Yuan Wuwei, who had not yet been completely cured, came back to the pass and led an army to pretend to be the defeated army in Bozhou to flee east. He bravely seized Yongcheng without any precautions under the influence of Yongcheng Army garrison, and controlled the most important pass in the east of Bozhou in one fell swoop.

At the same time, Yuan Wuwei kept Yuan Huaide to guard Qiao County, and he led the main force to go south. When Chengfu and Yuan Huaiqing jointly attacked Shang Yunliu's troops. Chengfu's city was small and short. After three days of persistence, he broke the city on May 19th. Shang Yunliu was killed by Yuan Wuwei with one attack on Tianhuo Yunlang and magic weapon Chixing.

On May 21st and 22nd, the two counties of Luyi and Zhenyuan surrendered to the Caizhou army respectively.

The entire eight counties of Bozhou, except for Linhuan, which is located at the eastern end of Fu Li, the main force of Xuzhou's Invasion Army, and the county near Daliang Songzhou, which is located at the northern end of the north, has not yet fallen, they are all controlled by the Caizhou army. It is only a matter of time before the change of hands between Linhuan and County, unless the Daliang or Xuzhou army intervenes.

*********************************************

In just over ten days, Zhuang Yongsheng lost weight, and his cheekbones that were not very visible under the horizontal flesh also raised their cheekbones. In his deep and concave eyes, his pupils were shining with dark light.

When he led the team back from Shouzhou, he went directly to Qiao County to meet Liang Xu, the governor of Bozhou, who was Liang Zan's younger brother.

Liang Xu still valued him quite seriously, but because Zhuang Yongsheng said he needed to recruit Yanyun refugees to realize the former Yingzhou Yajun in his hands, Liang Xu also expressed his support, and the soldiers provided supplementary support in all aspects of food, grass, horses, weapons and money, so Zhuang Yongsheng moved to the county.

The county is located at the northeast end of Bozhou, close to Xiayi (Xiayi) in Songzhou, and not far from Xiaoxian County, Xuzhou.

Since last winter, the farmers in Yanyun and Yi provinces, whose autumn grains were not harvested, have fled everywhere. The Daliang army in Caozhou and Songzhou and the Pinglu army in the north were on high alert and refused to the disaster victims of Yanyun and Yizhou to enter their territory. A large number of refugees in Yanyun and Yizhou went south to Fengxian in northern Xuzhou, Shanfu and Dangshan in Peixian and Songzhou, and even went into exile to Xiaoxian.

Xuzhou also wanted to stop these northern victims from going south, but due to the war in Yingbo and the rampant ant thieves, Xuzhou's troops were empty, and the local governments had no power to stop this increasingly large group of victims from going south. Only some places were powerful and powerful gentry to protect themselves, and they chose the strong ones as tenants, and the elderly, weak, women and children were kept out.

Zhuang Yongsheng took this into consideration at the beginning. The county was close to this area and could send people to this area to recruit troops, select them to strengthen their teams.

With Liang Xu's support and Huaiyou's secret support, Zhuang Yongsheng's recruitment work was done quite smoothly. The Ya Army, which was originally only five or six hundred people left, was quickly restored to one army. Of course, in terms of combat effectiveness, it was still impossible to compare with the Yingzhou Ya Army in the past.

According to Zhuang Yongsheng's idea, according to this situation, he could recruit another army before the autumn grain harvest, so that there would be five thousand people. As long as the armor and weapons were guaranteed and trained, he would basically have a place in the north of Bozhou. When the Caizhou army really came to attack, he could also help Liang Xu openly and secretly defend Bozhou according to the arrangements of Huaiyou.

But I didn't expect that the Caizhou army came so quickly, which not only exceeded his imagination, but also exceeded Huaiyou's predictions.

More than 20 days ago, he received an emergency line from Huaiyou Wuwentang from Bozhou. The Caizhou army might launch a full-scale attack on Bozhou. One day he had no time to report to Liang Xu that the Caizhou army had already arrived at Shansang City and conquered Shansang in one fell swoop.

All of this was immediately messed up. Caizhou army attacked on both sides and attacked Chengfu and attracted Shang Yunliu's troops to go south to reinforce. The main army here bypassed the Luyi and Zhenyuan counties to the west, and suddenly advanced and rushed to Qiao County, Zhoucheng. With the help of Qiao County, they broke the city in one fell swoop, and Liang Xu was killed in the chaos.

From the day when he learned that Liang Xu was killed, Zhuang Yongsheng knew that things could not be done. Bozhou fell into the hands of Yuan. It turned out that the best policy discussed with Huaiyou had failed. Now what we need to consider is how to protect the army in his hands.

It is undoubtedly meaningless to stop the Caizhou army from hitting the stone with eggs. Moreover, the order given to him by the emperor was to find a way to build a team in the northern part of Xuzhou to support the emperor in the future. This is his fundamental task.

However, Yongcheng has been occupied by the Caizhou army, and Xuzhou has not yet made any decent reaction. Although there are a large number of troops stationed in Fuli and Xiaoxian Jianhua Army, Zhuang Yongsheng does not believe that they dare to take the initiative to attack Bozhou. Being able to defend the two important places west of Xuzhou is already Amitabha Buddha.

Zhuang Yongsheng also knew that the reason why the Caizhou army did not take advantage of the situation to attack the county where it stationed was not that the Caizhou army was afraid of a war, but that the capture of the county would stimulate the Daliang army in the north and affect their Bozhou strategy.

Zhuang Yongsheng did send people to report urgently to the Daliang Tianxing Right Army, which was stationed in Songzhou, but there has been no response so far.

A burst of rapid footsteps came in, and the guards of his subordinates came to report: "Mr. Su is here."

"please."

"Brother Su, what's the situation?" Zhuang Yongsheng's face was as calm as ever, and he stood up to meet him.

"Not good." Cycad sweated like pulp, and obviously returned from a long journey.

The situation in Bozhou suddenly became like this. Even though Su Tie was mentally prepared, he still felt it was difficult to accept it.

He had issued an early warning to Shouzhou in advance, but Huaiyou's main energy was involved in Luzhou. Even the lord had already visited Luzhou in person. It was obvious that the situation in Wu was at a critical moment, but he did not expect that Bozhou would have such a big problem here.

The situation is never interpreted according to the script you designed, this is reality.

The Caizhou army's offensive was like a storm, which further showed that Bozhou was incompetent in response.

When the Caizhou army captured Shansang and attacked Chengfu but failed, Cyti asserted that this was the Caizhou army's treacherous plan. As expected, when Shang Yunliu's troops were attracted to the south, the Caizhou army had all its main forces and rushed to Qiao County, and defeated the city in one fell swoop with internal and external attacks.

Once Qiao County loses, the situation is over. Zhenyuan and Luyi have become water without roots, and it is only a matter of time before they surrender.

In this way, most of Bozhou will go to.

After hearing Su Tie introduce the situation he learned, Zhuang Yongsheng's face slowly showed a resolute look, "Brother Su, it seems that things in Bozhou are no longer possible. I'm afraid I'm going to find another way out."

"Oh?" Cyprus was surprised, "How are you going?"

"The task you handed over to me is not in Bozhou. Since Bozhou is not done, I have to get out as soon as possible and go to Fengpei County." Zhuang Yongsheng said decisively: "I expected that Caizhou's offensive was so fierce, but I was afraid that the actions of the Lord's side would be faster. The Lord said that Xuzhou would definitely not be earned by Caizhou. Please return to Shouzhou as soon as possible and report to the Lord as soon as possible. Xuzhou is in danger and must be arranged as soon as possible, otherwise once it is taken advantage of by Yuan, it will be in danger."

Su Tie didn't expect Zhuang Yongsheng to make such a decision, and he felt a little more admiration. No wonder he was valued by the Lord, but he still had some ability. He nodded: "Don't worry, I arranged to return the matter to Bozhou, so I immediately returned to Shouzhou. The Lord went to Luzhou a few days ago. It is estimated that the matter in Luzhou has been completed at this time. Now I can free up my hands to plan the matter in Xuzhou."

"Oh? The Wu area has been pacified?" Zhuang Yongsheng was also happy. Huaiyouyue was strong, and he would have a greater chance of going north to win Xuzhou in the future.

"It's not clear yet, but the emperor of Wu has already made arrangements. If it weren't for this, how could he not be able to deal with this? He was taken advantage of by Yuan. However, once the matter in Luzhou is happening, there will be no more opportunity for Yuan." Su Tie said confidently: "Brother Yongsheng goes north, you must be careful. I heard that the situation in Yan, Yun and Yi is broken, and the Taining army is also showing signs of collapse and becoming a bandit."

"Well, I have heard of this from some old things in the past. The Taining army was not full of food, and several armies had already plundered and eaten everywhere, which was no different from bandits. I thought this was the opportunity for the emperor. As long as he could take Xuzhou and have enough food, the three states of Yan, Yun and Yi could get it with his hands. Wouldn't it be pleasant?" Zhuang Yongsheng was full of passion.
