Chapter 168 Yuzhou and Guanzhong

The Tiger Cavalry of the Han Dynasty, like the Mo Dao soldiers, are the elite of the Han army in the mythical world. They are capable soldiers in hundreds of battles. The Tiger Cavalry has always been commanded by Zhou Bo, Zhou Yafu and his son.

In addition to the initial use of 300 swordsmen outside Xinye City to deal with the 30,000 official troops in order to easily break the camp and move around, this time it was also to ensure that Sun Jian and his son and their troops could be retained, and another 3,000 tiger cavalry were recruited.

, even Zhou Yafu, a cavalry warrior with unparalleled courage, was also brought over from the mythical world.

Next, he traveled around and planned to conquer the world, especially in the north, Guanzhong, and northwest, which required elite cavalry.

Looking at the current generals under Zhou You's command, only Hu Jinghui can lead cavalry in battle. But when it comes to training cavalry, he still can't compare to Zhou Yafu, who almost grew up in the army!

Yingchuan County and Runan County are both large counties in Yuzhou. They are close to NY. They are both prosperous and prosperous places with prosperous culture and many aristocratic families. If you are traveling around such an important place, you can't take advantage of it while Cao Cao is still busy in Yanzhou.

, advance into the Central Plains. When Cao Cao becomes stronger in the future, it will not be so easy to occupy these two counties!

As long as we occupy the land of these two counties, we will not only be able to gain a foothold in Yuzhou, but also be able to overlook YZ and form an encirclement situation around the three counties of JJ, Lujiang and Yuzhang. Going northeast, we can attack Yuzhou, directly targeting Yanzhou, XZ, and

The southeast can also sweep YZ.

At the same time, Zhou You also sent Zhao Xin to Yanzhou and Qingzhou to recruit various units of the Yellow Turban Army, hoping that they would come to join him. At least they would not be defeated one by one by Cao Cao, and they would not be easily subdued by Cao Cao and fattened up.

The reason why Kuai Liang was sent as a military advisor to accompany Hu Jinghui, Wenpin, Zhou Yafu and others to conquer Yingchuan and Runan was not because of Kuai Liang's intelligence, but because of his status as a prominent member of the Jingxiang family, hoping to conquer Yingchuan.

The nobles in Sichuan and Runan could more easily control and capture these two counties.

Having traveled around as an emperor for nearly twenty years, I know very well that whether it is leading troops or governing a country, sometimes it is necessary to cut through the mess with a quick knife, but more often than not, there is no need to rush. Just like stew, it needs to be simmered slowly.

It's cooked thoroughly and delicious. I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry.

Because once it is too strong, it will inevitably arouse the vigilance of the princes of the Central Plains and even force them to join forces, which will be a bit troublesome.

Not being hasty or slow, while putting pressure on Cao Cao and others, it would not overwhelm them, and allow the nobles in Yingchuan and Runan enough time to think about it. Zhou You also used this to convey that he did not rely on strength.

Be sincere to them.

Moreover, this round trip was also carried out under the pretext of clearing out the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army in Yingchuan and Runan. The troops were well-known and we did not take the city by force. However, I went on an expedition to ensure the peace of the two counties. The nobles of you two counties must have

Provide some money and food!

After going back and forth, the relationship between each other has become closer, right? The traveling army can also gain a good reputation in Yingchuan and Runan.

As for whether the Yellow Turban Army that originally existed in Yingchuan and Runan counties or that suddenly appeared was actually ordered by Zhou You, whether he instigated or even secretly supported it, how much of the so-called suppression of the Yellow Turban Army was part of a show, who knows?

How much do you care?

In this way, Hu Jinghui and the others almost wandered around Yingchuan and Runan counties. Not only did they not suffer any losses and did not take the initiative to conquer any cities, on the contrary, slowly some cities took the initiative to surrender, eventually making the entire Yingchuan and Runan counties.

After everyone surrendered, tens of thousands more troops were added.

In the winter of 192 AD, when Cao Cao wiped out the Yellow Turban Army in Yanzhou, although he subdued tens of thousands of surrendered soldiers and gained hundreds of thousands of people, more remaining Yellow Turban Army troops and people poured into Yingchuan and Runan.

, joined Hu Jinghui and others who were also trying to suppress the Yellow Turban Army.

After some reorganization, hundreds of thousands of people came to join them. At the same time, Yuzhou was also in Yingchuan. The two counties of Runan had hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers, which attracted the other counties in Yuzhou to rush to join them. With Yuzhou in hand, it suddenly gained momentum.

Approaching Yuan Shao in the north.

At the same time, Yuan Shu was in bad luck. He was defeated by Cao Cao in the spring of the next year and fled south in embarrassment to HN...

While traveling around and taking over Yuzhou in a leisurely manner, a big change occurred in Chang'an, Guanzhong. First, Dong Zhuo was murdered by Wang Yun and Lu Bu, and then Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, Niu Fu, was also cowardly and suspicious, and had difficulty commanding the Xiliang army.

A arrogant and fierce general, he suspected that there was a mutiny in the army, abandoned his troops and fled, but was eventually killed by his subordinates for money and money. He died in the same aggrieved way as Dong Zhuo.

Next, Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji and other generals of the Xiliang army who were originally captains under Niu Fu led their troops to attack Chang'an under the plan of the poisonous scholar Jia Xu.

Knowing that the time had come, Zhou You was about to lead his troops into Guanzhong in person. As soon as he arrived at Wancheng, he ran into Guo Jia who happened to come to offer his advice. When he heard that Guo Jia had come to offer his help, Zhou You couldn't help but be a little surprised. Guo Jia wasn't

Cao Cao's counselor? Has he not surrendered to Cao Cao yet?

But think about it, how can Cao Cao, who only has Yanzhou after four battles, compare with Jingxiang, who will soon own the entire Yuzhou?

You must know that Zhou You is said to be from the Yellow Turban Army. Within three or two years, he has become so powerful and his reputation is not inferior to that of Yuan Shao. If he is not the Ming Lord, who in the world can be called the Ming Lord?

Guo Jia had also been to Jizhou before, and when he came to see Zhou You again, he originally wanted to suggest that Zhou You take the opportunity to occupy Guanzhong, which coincided with Zhou You's idea. After some exchanges, after comparing with Yuan Shao, Zhou You was wise and wise.

The foresight and brilliance immediately gave Guo Jiasheng a sense of coincidence and the joy of meeting the Ming Lord!

In this way, Guo Jia officially followed Zhou You. As a military advisor, he and Zhou You led 30,000 cavalry and 60,000 infantry, plus 3,000 elite tiger cavalry under Zhou Yafu who came from Yingchuan. They went directly north into Hongnong County and attacked King Qin.

The banner, with the active support of local gentry officials, rushed towards Chang'an like a broken bamboo.

In fact, all the elite troops of Xiliang gathered near Chang'an and wanted to capture Chang'an. Hongnong's defense was naturally relaxed, allowing Zhou You to take advantage of a loophole.

As for why Zhou You was able to gather 30,000 cavalry, for him who has the mythical world as his base, how difficult is it to get tens of thousands of horses? And the training of cavalry has the strength of the tiger cavalry left by Zhou Yafu.

The few small school soldiers under the command are enough for training.

In addition, the war horses are equipped with horseshoes and saddles, and the three thousand Jingxiang cavalry that have been trained for a year and a half will not be able to fight even against the elite Xiliang army.

In fact, many people can't figure out how these war horses came from. They only know that Zhou You sent people to a place to fetch war horses, and then they fetched tens of thousands of war horses. Their mysterious origins also make people think that Zhou You may have

As the legend says, it is a heavenly being descending to earth with unpredictable powers.

Moreover, after occupying NY and Jingxiang, Zhou You also recruited craftsmen who were good at casting, improved the iron-making method, and the casting method of weapons and armor, so that the weapons and equipment for his soldiers and horses would be better.

In fact, Zhou You even set up a firearms workshop to secretly produce firearms as sharp weapons for his army. In order to deal with the cavalry of the Xiliang Army this time, Zhou You not only reorganized the Mo Dao soldiers belonging to this world, but also brought some weapons with him.

firearm.

Guo Jia followed him along the way, and he saved a lot of worry when traveling around. After taking Hongnong, the march slowed down a bit, and he sent people to contact Li Jue, Guo Si and others, expressing his intention to help protect His Majesty with them, so that
