Wu Shun led his troops to station in Xingyang City, preparing to completely take down this new territory.

All the cavalry units of the Wuling Army were sent out by Wu Shun, and there were still some places around Xingyang that needed to go through the motions.

There will be no new war here for the time being, because Cao Cao is newly defeated, as long as Wu Shun does not take the initiative to attack, Cao's army will definitely choose to stick to it.

Now Wu Shun is not very anxious to attack Cao Cao. Because rabbits will bite people if they are forced into a hurry, Wu Shun doesn't want to press too much.

"It's not easy to move Cao Cao for the time being, so let's have fun with Liu Biao."

Wu Shun made a decision in his heart.

Gan Ning and Wen Pin were ready in Changsha at this time, and were waiting for Wu Shun's order to attack.

Wu Shun did not let them wait for a long time. After Zhuge Liang finished handling the matter at hand, he temporarily entrusted the logistics work to Yang Youcai.

He himself followed Wu Shun's orders to Changsha to meet with Gan Ning and the others, preparing to attack Jingzhou!

In theory, Wu Shun should not fight on both sides, because this will disperse the Wuling Army's strength and increase the consumption of strategic materials and logistics pressure in Yizhou.

However, the war in the north went smoothly, and the Cao army chose to defend and did not dare to have the idea of ​​counterattack. The Wuling Army in the north had a strong military force, which was enough to ensure that there was no security in the northern battlefield.

It was not decided by Wu Shun's decision to open up a second battlefield at this time, just by patting his head.

This is how Yizhou's established strategy is planned, and now Sun Ce is still responding opposite Jiangxia, and the situation is very good.

If you don’t take action at this time, you will miss the opportunity.

Waiting too long will easily cause allies to lose their trust.

In July, Zhuge Liang swore a Northern Expedition on the bank of the Xiangjiang River to attack Liu Biao!

The Jiaolong fleet belonging to the Wuling Army left the Xiangjiang River and entered Dongting Lake, and cooperated with the Wuling Army Xuanwu Legion to capture all the important places along the Dongting Lake.

The war in Jingzhou began, and the whole world was shocked!

Many people think that Wu Shun is crazy. He is in stalemate with Cao Cao in the north and dares to use two legions to attack Jingzhou.

There is also this person who thinks that Wu Shun is very happy with his merits, and that the Wuling Army will die if it is wary!

In short, the opening of the second battlefield of the Wuling Army allowed some people who were looking forward to the failure of Wushun to see the hope of the defeat of the Wuling Army.

In mid-July, Zhuge Liang led his troops to defeat Baqiubaling and the Jingzhou army was defeated as if a mountain had fallen. Cai Mao was defeated by Gan Ning again and fled to Jiangling in a hurry.

At the end of July, Zhuge Liang sent Gan Ning to lead the Jiaolong fleet to the east to attack Chibi, supporting Sun Ce who was attacking Jiangxia.

As early as when the Wuling Army left Dongting Lake, Sun Ce had already launched an attack. However, Jiangxia was easy to defend but difficult to attack, and Zhang Yun also had heavy troops to defend. Although the Jiangdong Army was brave, it was helpless.

The army won consecutive battles and the news reached the north. Wu Shun ordered Zhuge Liang to reward the three armies! The morale of the Wuling army was high and they were advancing all the way!

In Xingyang City, while discussing how to deal with Cao Cao, the generals discussed the battle situation in Jingzhou.

What made Wu Shun feel relieved was that Gan Ning selected elite troops from the navy and formed a naval marine with 2,000 people.

This team made many great contributions in this battle! Zhuge Liang was able to easily conquer Baqiu and Baling, and the Navy and Marine Corps made an indelible contribution!

"The Second General, the name of the Marine Corps has been very famous recently, and it is probably going to overshadow the glory of the White Tiger Camp."

Dongfang Qiang quipped.

The new military branch that Gan Ning created is indeed very strong. He is proficient in water and land warfare! He can truly get on board the ship and be an elite navy, and he will get off the ship.

It is said that Gan Ning also wanted the Marines to learn cavalry warfare, which can be said to have a lot of imagination.

Zhang Xiong was unwilling to be teased by Dongfang.

"No one can cover up the glory of the White Tiger Camp in the East."

The White Tiger Camp has always been a representative branch of the Wuling Army and is also the elite unit with the most contributions. From its establishment to the present, it has maintained an organization of two thousand people.

Never changed!

There is no need to change! Xingyang can be successfully captured, and the cavalry attacks have a certain promotion effect, but it is more of the White Tiger Legion's bravery to kill the enemy.

Of course, the long-range strike power of the Vermilion Bird Legion also contributed to it.

"Second brother, in the next battle, the White Tiger Camp must play a greater role, because here, except for the White Tiger Legion, there is only no strong siege force."

Wu Shun explained.

"Brother, don't worry, with me here, you can break it no matter where you fight!"

Zhang Xiong said domineeringly.

In fact, there are more than 10,000 infantrymen from the Qilin Legion that can attack the city.

But when Wu Shun usually uses the Qilin Legion, he always attacks!

This is the tradition of the Wuling Army. Once the war begins, use the strongest combat power and fight with all your strength!

Don't give the enemy any chance!

This is responsibility for oneself and respect for the enemy!

But usually, the enemies of the Wuling Army would rather not have this respect.

They wanted the Wuling Army to send some ordinary county soldiers to fight and make them make some contributions. Unfortunately, the Wuling Army went to fight, and the county soldiers had only two tasks, logistics transportation of grain and patrol.

Even defending the city is guarding those relatively safe areas. In dangerous cities and levels, there are usually elite legions to guard them.

"Lord, the army has been rested and most of the Xingyang areas have been pacified. It is time to attack Zhongmu."

Xu Shu suggested.

The Wuling Army had not moved for so long, giving Cao Cao enough time to prepare. If it weren't for the White Tiger Legion that needed to be supplemented, Xu Shu would not have agreed to Wu Shun's approach of step by step.

It would be better to completely pacify the Xingyang area, but it also gave Cao army time and opportunity. At this time, Zhongmu and Changshe might have made Cao Cao become an iron barrel.

"Well, it's time. I wonder if Cao Cao dares to fight my Wuling Army head-on. It is said that those big families donated a lot of private soldiers to him."

Based on Wu Shun's understanding of Cao Cao, Cao Cao would not let those private soldiers of the family go.

"If Cao Cao was smart, he would use his private troops to consume our army."

Fazheng speaks and says.

To put it bluntly, the private soldiers of those families are private armed forces, which is illegal. Moreover, the existence of private soldiers will affect Cao Cao's prestige.

Only when all the private soldiers donated by the families are consumed, families without self-protection will hug Cao Cao closely.

"Each legion is ready. We are going to fight Zhongmu and we can't give Cao Cao too much time."

Wu Shun emphasized.

"Abide by the order!"

Everyone answered.

The war in Jingzhou went smoothly, and the northern army had also been rested and replenished.

In early August, the cavalry troops returned from all over the place. After resting, Wu ordered to go to Zhongmu and prepare to go to war with Cao Cao again.

After the oath to sacrifice the flag, 20,000 White Tiger Legion, 20,000 Vermillion Bird Legion, 50,000 Green Dragon Legion, 20,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry, 20,000 Qilin Legion, a total of 110,000 troops and troops were divided into two groups to move towards the Zhongmu area!

At this time, there were 30,000 Cao troops stationed in Zhongmu. The general guarding the city was Cao Ren, a famous general of the Cao army. Cao Cao led 50,000 troops and personally stationed in Changshe.
