Chapter 314: The soldiers set off in Jiangdong

Yuan Shao led his army to fight Gongsun Zan in Panhe and fought to the death. Yuan's entire army pressed over and launched an attack desperately. Overnight, the Jizhou army was like a brand new army, unstoppable. Gongsun Zan of Youzhou suddenly felt that the pressure increased greatly and had been defeated several times in a row. The front line also retreated from Panhe to Youzhou.

The forms of Jizhou and Youzhou gradually became clearer, and Yuan Shao's Jizhou army occupied an absolute advantage.

Cao Cao carried the banner of avenging his father and sent troops to Xuzhou. After learning the truth, Tao Qian, the governor of Xuzhou, was beyond his reach of regret. Cao's army was unstoppable and brave. In a few days, he captured several cities in Xuzhou and approached Xuzhou. Wherever Cao's army passed, he had the best of killing and attacking. He captured a city and killed all the city, which was even more cruel than a butcher, which attracted the anger of heaven and people.

Although all the knowledgeable people in the world understand Cao Cao's true intention, Cao Cao's name avenged his father and wanted to take Xuzhou. But who can he blame this? Tao Qian and Tao gave Cao Cao a reason to have to send troops, otherwise he would be unfilial.

When these two major forces were in large-scale action, Yuan Shu couldn't sit still. He also summoned his civil servants and generals to take the initiative to attack to grab territory and expand his power. Yuan Shu's target was Shouchun, and his opponent was Liu Yao, the governor of Yangzhou. After Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, Yuan Shu launched a large-scale army to Shouchun.

Starting from April 191, stimulated by the Zhenxi army's outflow of Jingzhou, all the princes reversed the previous tepid trend, changed the style of small-scale fighting and war gradually escalated. In the Han Dynasty, from north to south, there were wars everywhere, and the enemy's troops invested hundreds of thousands of people.

War is the driving force for the development of arms. After the Zhenxi Army first used the catapult car, the catapult car has been widely used on the battlefield and has become the first weapon for siege of all parties.

The principle of the catapult cart is simple and the structure is not complicated. After learning that the Zhenxi Army used the catapult cart, the princes of all walks of life tried their best and imitated it one after another. Various catapult carts appeared on the battlefield one after another.

Although the catapults made by these princes are somewhat different from those of the Zhenxi Army in terms of power, and there are no such powerful weapons as sulphur bombs, compared with other siege equipment, the catapults have an incomparable role in long-range strikes, making the siege methods more diverse.

Just as the heroes in the world were fighting to death, Huangfu Jian, the fuse of this incident, adopted a wait-and-see attitude. After the Zhenxi Army captured the four counties in Jingnan, everyone in the world thought that the Zhenxi Army would capture Jingzhou in one fell swoop, but the Zhenxi Army stopped attacking and no longer moved.

Xiakou has now become the base camp of Jingnan, and the prefect whom Huangfu Jian is in charge is the command center of this base camp. Zhong Yao, Gu Yong, Yiji and other civil officials are responsible for the government affairs of Jingnan, Gan Ning, Huang Gai, Zu Mao, Huang Xu, Sun Ce, Zhou Yu and other generals are responsible for the training of the army, and Guo Jia and Xu Shu are responsible for the planning and planning.

Huangfu Jian was of course very happy about Xu Shu's arrival. He directly transferred the talent to his side and formed the pre-war general staff with Guo Jia.

With the efforts of civil officials such as Zhong Yao, Gu Yong, and Yizhi, the construction of the four counties in Jingnan quickly got on track.

In terms of the army, in addition to the original 50,000 soldiers and 5,000 guards of the Silver Fox Camp, Huangfu Jian ordered that 50,000 troops be selected from the surrendered soldiers of the four counties and formed the Fengxiang Camp, the Eighth Battalion of the Zhenxi Army. Fengxiang Camp was mainly composed of soldiers from the southern region, and a group of elite soldiers were drawn from other large camps to serve as grassroots backbone. Fengxiang Camp was only equipped with two thousand iron cavalry, and the rest were infantry. The purpose of Huangfu Jian's formation of this army was to better adapt to the southern climate and fight in the mountains and jungle in the south.

Huangfu Jian appointed Zhou Yu as the head general of Fengxiang Camp, and Sun Ce as the deputy general of Fengxiang Camp, with two young players taking charge.

In the blink of an eye, October was coming. The political situation of the four southern counties was stable and the weather began to get colder. On October 1st, Huangfu Jian summoned a order to summon civil officials and generals of the Zhenxi Army and gathered at the Xiakou Prefecture. The Zhenxi Army, which had been silent for several months, will take new actions again, and the local people will immediately pass on the latest news.

In the prefect's mansion, Huangfu Jian was wearing a warm and light fur, and was ranked high above. Looking at the civil servants and military generals standing on both sides, his face was plain, he had adapted to this large formation.

"Everyone, our army has been resting in Jiangxia for several months, and the reorganization of Fengxiang Camp has been completed. Now it is time for you to show your strength. I will appoint Li Jue as the chief general of the Silver Fox Camp, Zu Mao, Han Dang as the deputy general of the Silver Fox Camp, and Guo Jia as the military advisor of the army. Your target is Wuling County, and take down Liu Biao's last stronghold in Jiangnan to me."

"No!" Li Jue, Zu Mao, Han Dang, and Guo Jia took the time loudly.

"Gan Ning led 10,000 Jinfan Army, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce led 50,000 Fengxiang Camp, and the troops were out of Jiangdong. I will also walk with you!" Huangfu Jian looked at Gan Ning, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce and said.

In the eyes of the Zhenxi Army, the four counties of Jingnan were just an appetizer. Huangfu Jian’s real goal of sending troops this time was Jiangdong, which was the founding place of the Eastern Wu in his previous life. When people in the world thought that the Zhenxi Army was going to attack Jingzhou, Huangfu Jian issued an order to send troops to Jiangdong.

"No!" Gan Ning, Zhou Yu, and Sun Ce bowed to receive the order. Zhou Yu and Sun Ce even saw golden lights in their eyes. Unexpectedly, Huangfu Jian not only let them lead the army alone, but also handed them the reward for capturing Jiangdong.

"Gu Yong, the government affairs in Jingnan, and Yi was fully responsible. Zhong Yao followed the generals to Jiangdong." After making arrangements for the generals, Huangfu Jian made a series of personnel appointments.

"As for the order!" The three of them received the order.

With Huangfu Jian's order, the Zhenxi Army, which had been calm for a long time, took the pace of their unification of the world. The Zhenxi Army's various troops in Jingzhou were mobilized and prepared for a war.

For a moment, the land of Jingnan was surging again, and the battle clouds were densely covered with clouds.

Above the river, a huge fleet went downstream, and behind this huge fleet was a giant ship. Of course, this big ship was Huangfu Jian's "Noah's Master Boat No. 2". Huangfu Jian stood on the high ship tower, blew the cold river breeze, and his heart was as deep as water. However, his mind was to arrive in Wan County, Lujiang, where Erqiao in Jiangdong and two peerless beauties.

The Zhenxi Army headed eastward, with a strong momentum. As the army passed along the way, the counties and counties fell down. In a month, Fengxiang Camp advanced to Qu'a, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce, the important towns in Jiangdong. Sun Ce was extremely brave and very similar to his father Sun Jian. Zhou Yu used his troops in a strange way, and he always went to the army unexpectedly, and he had no choice but to do so. The two of them were in harmony with each other. The Fengxiang Camp, which was fighting for the first time, also had the morale of the Vietnam War, and gradually moved towards a strong army.

However, it is said that the governor of Yangzhou, Liu Yao, was from Mouping, Donglai. He was also a relative of the Han Dynasty and the nephew of Liu Pang. Originally, the prefecture of Yangzhou was in Shouchun. In June, Yuan Shu launched a large army in Shouchun. Liu Yao could not resist the enemy and had to flee to Qu'a, Jiangnan with his important officials and generals. But unexpectedly, Qu'a had not been firmly settled for a long time, and the Zhenxi Army, which was more terrifying than Yuan Shu, came.

When Liu Yao learned that the Zhenxi Army was not far from Qua, he was one of the top two, so he quickly summoned his ministers to discuss countermeasures.

"Don't be surprised by your lord! I would like to lead an army to station in Niuzhu. Even if there are millions of soldiers in the western army, the last general can block them in Niuzhu and not be able to advance in a short time." The general behind Liu Yao's tent stood up and said loudly.

When Liu Yao saw that it was his subordinate general Zhang Ying, he was overjoyed and said, "General Zhang is brave and brave. I will order you to lead 20,000 troops to Niuzhu to fight against the western army!"

"Abide by the order!" Zhang Ying replied loudly. Zhang Ying was also a general in Liu Yao's army, but even Yuan Shu's army could not resist. This shows that the generals in Liu Yao's army were not much stronger.

"I would like to be the pioneer in the front!" At this time, another young general stood up, bowed slightly to Yao, and pleaded loudly.

When everyone saw that the young general was Taishi Ci from Huang County, Donglai. Taishi Ci and Liu Yao were half of the fellow villagers.

When Taishici was young, his family was poor and his mother had to support him. Liu Yao often sent someone to pick up Ci's mother. After Taishici returned from learning art, Ci's mother ordered Taishici to join Liu Yao's tent in order to repay kindness. Taishici was extremely filial and obeyed the words of Ci's mother. Although Taishici felt that Liu Yao had no future, he still couldn't bear to disobey Ci's mother's thoughts. So Taishici ran to Liu Yao and started a small school.

Taishici has a short halberd in his hand, a skilled bow and horse, and is even more skillful. He is actually a powerful general. However, although he is strong in martial arts, he is not used by Liu Yao. Liu Yao always has an old eye for people. In his eyes, Taishici is just the bad kid at the time, so he dared not let him take on the vanguard's duty. Then he said, "You are still young and cannot be a general. Just obey me!"

It was because Liu Yao had great talents that he was defeated by Yuan Shu and defeated by Zhenxi Army. Of course, even if he was willing to use Taishi Ci, he could not stop the sharp edge of Zhenxi Army.

How could Liu Yao have thought that most of the generals appointed by Huangfu Jian were young people. The two young generals responsible for attacking Jiangdong this time were even less than young people. It was precisely because Huangfu Jian’s unconventional bold use of young people that the current situation was achieved and created one miracle after another. Youdao is that heroes have emerged from ancient times!

Seeing that Liu Yao disagreed, Taishi Ci had no choice but to do so. He was the master and he was just a junior school student. Although he didn't say anything, he was still very unhappy and had to retreat unhappily.

However, Zhang Ying led a 20,000 army to station in Niuzhu, but stationed 100,000 stone of military rations in Dige.

On the third day when Zhang Ying stationed his troops in Niuzhu, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce arrived, the Fengxiang Camp army arrived.

Before Zhang Ying could set up camp in the western army, he led a large army to challenge, and the two armies set up a formation on Niuzhu Beach.

Zhang Ying, holding a spear and riding a horse, came to the front of the two armies, pointed directly at Zhou Yu, and cursed: "Zhou Yu, you are not staying at home well, but you lead your troops to invade my border, but why?"

There is no old saying that older people are afraid of others saying they are old, but younger people hate them the most.

"You are old, so stay wherever you are cool! Dao Bing has no eyes and hurts your old bones. Don't blame me for not reminding you!" Zhou Yu retorted, saying that if you say he is young, he would say you are old.

In fact, although Zhang Ying is not young, she is at most in her forties and is not old enough to stay at home.

"Ignorance, my tone is quite good. When I come to capture you!" Zhang Ying was furious when she heard this, she stabbed her spear.

Zhang Ying didn't know that although Zhou Yu was young, he was smart and followed Huangfu Jian for a long time. What kind of hero has never seen before, so how could he take a little Zhang Ying seriously?

"Gongjin retreats and wait for him to meet him!" Sun Ce, who was beside him, quickly slapped forward, and the tiger-headed halberd in his hand held the spear in Zhang Ying's hand.

Along the way, Zhou Yu used his brains to make suggestions. Sun Ce took action, and he would all challenge and kill him. Seeing Zhou Yu's gentle appearance, Sun Ce was really afraid that Zhou Yu would not be able to stand Zhang Ying's spear, so he stood up. In fact, Sun Ce was too worried. Zhou Yu did not take action, but because he had no chance to take action. Before Zhou Yu took action, Sun Ce snatched the first. Zhou Yu followed Huangfu Jian for many years, but it was not for nothing. Huangfu Jian not only taught him military strategies, but also taught him martial arts. He didn't want Zhou Yu to be injured by a hidden arrow like he did in his previous life.

Seeing that Sun Ce came up again, Zhou Yu smiled and retreated behind. Although he did not need Sun Ce's protection, Sun Ce's friendship was still touching!

The big tiger-headed halberd danced in Sun Ce's hand and collided with Zhang Ying's spear. With a loud "clang" sound, the two horses were staggered, and Zhang Ying was shocked by the huge force coming from the spear, and he was shocked. Unexpectedly, the boy in front of him was not very old, but his strength was so great.

"Come again!" Sun Ce, no matter what Zhang Ying thought, swung the tiger-headed halberd high and smashed it down again.

Sun Ce had an extremely bad horse and a savage. Zhang Ying had no time to hide, so she had to bite the bullet and raise her spear to resist. The halberd collided with the spear again. This time, Zhang Ying was even more ineffective and almost couldn't stand it.

Zhang Ying knew that he was defeated. If this continues, maybe this kid would ask for his old order with his next halberd. Taking advantage of the opportunity of two horses being disconnected, Zhang Ying pulled out his horse and fled into the formation.

"All the troops attack!" Zhou Yu saw the enemy general defeated and fled, and waved his spear in his hand and shouted loudly.

The soldiers of the Fengxiang camp rushed forward with a scream. The spearmen charged forward with spears in their hands. The sword and shield soldiers followed closely with one hand and the archers followed behind them, constantly scattering above the Syrian. The long-range shots were close to the close-range shots, and the 20,000 Fengxiang Army and Zhang Ying's 20,000 troops started a bloody battle on the beach.

The Fengxiang Camp had an absolute advantage in the number of soldiers, and the main generals were victorious. They were all very powerful, like tigers on the mountain, and were unstoppable. Zhang Ying's army was originally at a disadvantage in number, but now the main generals were defeated and fled, so there was no desire to fight. It didn't take long to resist and kept retreating.

When Zhang Ying saw that he could not stop the enemy, he had to give up Niuzhu and flee into the mountains. Zhou Yu and Sun Ce led the soldiers of Fengxiang Camp to chase each other relentlessly. Some of the fast-running Liu Yao's army fled into the deep mountains. Those who ran slowly were either chopped and killed by the Zhenxi Army or became prisoners of the Zhenxi Army.

Zhang Ying boasted about Haikou in front of Liu Yao that he wanted to block the millions of troops in the Western Army in Niuzhu without any inability to advance. As a result, Fengxiang Camp captured Niuzhu in less than a day, captured 8,000 surrendered soldiers, and obtained a large amount of military rations that Zhang Ying placed in the di Pavilion.

Zhang Ying fled to Qu'a and met Liu Yao.

Seeing that Zhang Ying was not only defeated, but also lost all his 20,000 troops and 100,000 stones of food, Liu Yao was furious and shouted loudly: "See that Zhang Ying is pushed out to Gu and behead him!"

When Zhang Ying heard this, although she was ashamed, she was still begging for mercy.

At this time, two advisers under Liu Yao's tent, Xue Li walked out and said in unison: "Lord, the enemy is in front of you, it may be unlucky to kill the general first. Now the Zhenxi Army is invading a large-scale attack, and our army is at the right time to use people. It is better to let General Zhang make meritorious contributions than to punish him."

"Hmph! For the sake of the two gentlemen's plea for you, I will spare your life! Your head will be sent to you first, and I will give you another 5,000 troops and order you to station troops in Lingling City. If you cannot defeat the Zhenxi Army, the two crimes will be committed together!" Liu Yao snorted coldly and said in a deep voice.

Zhang Ying was sweating coldly. Seeing that Liu Yao agreed to let him go, his heart was finally relieved. But when he heard Liu Yao's second half of the sentence, his heart couldn't help but tremble again. The 20,000 army could not withstand the Western Army for a day, but now Liu Yao asked him to use 5,000 troops to defend Lingling City. What's the difference between this and killing him? It's just a few more days of survival.

Afterwards, Liu Yao personally led a large army to set up a village at Shentingling Ridge south of Qu'an, and the village was descending to the south of Shenting Ridge. Zhou Yu and Sun Ce also led their troops to set up a village at the north of Shenting Ridge. The two villages were one south and one north, only separated by a mountain.

The next morning, the mountains were filled with clouds and mist. Sun Ce said to Zhou Yu: "Gongjin, I want to go to the top of the mountain to explore the enemy camp."

"Although Brother Bo Fu is extremely brave, this move is too risky and can't be used." When Zhou Yu heard this, he really took the courage of Xiong Xin and Leopard. He had to do such a dangerous thing, so he hurriedly spoke to stop it.

But who is Sun Ce? He is arrogant and unruly? Although Zhou Yu is the commander of the army, he is unwilling to listen to Zhou Yu's dissuasion. He is wearing a helmet and armor, and a horse and a thirteen followers, and then he goes to the top of the mountain. When Sun Ce goes to the top of the mountain, he sees a fog everywhere, and there is nowhere to see the Liu Yao army camp in the south of the mountain clearly.

"The fog in the mountains is so strong that I can't see the enemy's camp clearly. I'm going to cross the mountains and go to explore the camp!" Sun Ce saw the heavy fog on the top of the mountain and could not see the situation at the foot of the mountain, so he said to the Thirteen followers beside him.

"General, you must not! There are thousands of troops in the enemy camp. How can the general explore the camp alone and put himself in a dangerous place?" The Thirteenth follower dissuaded in unison.

Sun Ce refused to listen and forced the thirteen people to cross the mountain and came to the south of Shenting Ridge.

There were long ago whistle cavalry arranged by Liu Yao on the mountain to report to Liu Yao.

After hearing this, Liu Yao shook his head and said, "This must be the enemy's strategy to lure the enemy. There must be a fog in the mountains. There must be an ambush. If you want to lead our army to be deceived, you should not chase him. Let him go."

When Taishi Ci heard this, he said, "The people in the mountains must be Sun Ce, the general of the Western Army. If you don't go to capture him at this time, then when will you wait!" Before Liu Yao stopped him, Taishi Ci had already put on his horse and came out of the camp with a short halberd. While running, he shouted, "It's a hero. Come with me and capture Sun Ce alive!"
