Three Kingdoms: The rebellious son of the Cao family married the queen at the beginning

Chapter 293 Guo Jia offered advice, Cao Ang besieged Pengcheng

"Mr. Feng Xiao, our army has been stationed in Peiguoxiang County for several days, when will we be able to enter?"

Cao Ang came to Guo Jia's residence eagerly, and asked when the troops would be dispatched. He could hardly bear it anymore.

Earlier, Guo Jia asked him to stay in Xiang County to observe the situation, and he followed Guo Jia's suggestion.

It's been three days, and if he stays here any longer, he's going to go crazy.

Guo Jia persuaded: "Young Master, don't worry. I have already written to Zang Ba in Taishan County. I hope he can assist us in attacking Xuzhou. I think there will be a reply today."

"Zang Ba?"

Cao Ang looked surprised. How could he assist in Taishan County? Would he be allowed to attack Xuzhou from the north and attack Tao Qian from both sides?
Guo Jia explained: "My lord, our army only has 3 troops. It is impossible to capture Xuzhou. Cao Shuo's soldiers and horses must be assisted."

Cao Ang worried: "If we ask the other party to assist us before we encounter obstacles, will the other party agree?"

If he was stopped by Tao Qian's army on the way to attack Xuzhou, and Zang Ba was sent out of Taishan County to attack Langya County, he might be able to share the pressure with them. He hasn't sent troops yet, how could he be so stupid.

Guo Jia said: "My lord, just wait for the news!"

Cao Ang waited for another half a day, and when the sun was about to set, Guo Jia came to his house.

"My lord, the time is ripe. Zang Ba led [-] troops out of Kaiyang and stationed in Jiqiu County, fifty miles south of Kaiyang City. Tao Qian was worried that Zang Ba would attack Donghai County, so he sent general Cao Bao and counselor Chen Deng to lead [-] troops. The army, stationed in Tan County, Donghai County, guard against Zang Ba."

"Really?"

Cao Ang was very pleasantly surprised. Tao Qian had only a few generals, the army relied on Cao Bao, the navy relied on Lu Fan, and the others were unreliable. If Cao Bao was transferred out of Xuzhou, he would have a smooth journey.

Guo Jia nodded and said, "Our army can send troops now!"

Cao Ang looked at Guo Jia respectfully, and said, "Sir, please order!"

When the two came to Dianjiangtai, Guo Jia ordered: "Xia Houde, you lead five thousand soldiers to attack the steroid hill south of Pengcheng."

"promise!"

"After the capture of Stero Hill, take advantage of the situation and move eastward for eighty li, and set up camp twenty miles west of Qulu County. You must make the camp about five times as large, so that the other party will think that you have tens of thousands of soldiers and horses."

"promise!"

Although Xia Houde didn't know why he did this, as long as it was ordered by Guo Junshi, he could only do it.

"Cao Xiu, you lead [-] soldiers to attack Liu County. There are more than [-] defenders in Liu County. It is impossible to attack by force. You set up camp ten miles outside the city, waving flags, beating drums and shouting every day."

Cao Xiu said: "Military Master, I can take Liu County down!"

Let him just beat the drums and shout, he thinks this is an overkill, and he doesn't pay attention to the mere five thousand guards.

Guo Jia's face turned cold and said: "The sword seal is here, hurry up and prepare!"

"promise!"

Guo Jia looked at Cao Ang and said, "My lord, we will lead an army of [-] in Wu County, [-] miles southwest of Pengcheng."

Cao Ang asked in surprise, "Military Master, aren't we going to attack Pengcheng?"

Several counties around Pengcheng were attacked, why keep Pengcheng, there are only [-] soldiers and horses in the city, and the guard Yuan Sui is even a civil servant, who doesn't know how to charge.

Guo Jia explained: "My lord, although a strong attack on Pengcheng can take it quickly, Yuan Sui, the prefect of Pengcheng, has prepared a lot of defensive equipment in order to guard against our army. If we attack by force, we will definitely lose a lot. We only have [-] soldiers Horse, it’s better to be safe.”

"Okay, everything depends on the military division!"

In the prefect's mansion of Pengcheng, Yuan Sui was drinking and having fun.

A soldier ran in in a panic and said out of breath: "Report to the prefect, Cao Cao's army suddenly attacked Pengcheng, and Liu County in the north was surrounded by enemy troops. General Xia Houde broke through."

"what?"

Yuan Sui's drunkenness instantly sobered up a lot. Tao Qian asked him to lead an army of [-] to station in Pengcheng just to prevent Cao Cao from attacking Xuzhou.

Are they going to sneak attack on Xiapi country?

"Come on, call all the deputy generals!"

After a while, several lieutenants came to Yuan Sui's residence.

Dang Xian, Zhu Huan, Jing Shang, Qian Tong,

"Dang first, Zhu Huan, I will give you three thousand soldiers and horses. You will sneak attack Cao Jun's camp in Liu County during the night, and then assist the guards in Liu County to guard against Cao Cao's army."

"promise!"

Yuan Sui looked at Jing Shang and Qian Tong and continued: "The other party has taken Wu County and Steeqiu in the south, and will definitely attack Lu County and Qulu behind our army. You two will each lead [-] troops to support us. For the second county, you only need to stick to it, and I will ask the lord for help."

"promise!"

Yuan Sui dispatched troops and generals, and there were only [-] defenders left in Pengcheng, but for him, it was no problem to defend for two days. As long as Tao Qian sent reinforcements, he could defend Pengcheng.

Pengcheng Kingdom is the west gate of Xiapi. If Pengcheng is lost, then Xiapi will be in danger. Tao Qian will definitely send an army to defend Pengcheng.

A day later, Yuan Sui stood at the top of the city, looking at Cao Ang's army outside the city with a look of horror.

Looking at the scouts, he asked, "Where are our reinforcements?"

"General Qi, my lord sent Wang Lang to lead an army of [-] to support, but they stopped in Lu County and did not leave."

Yuan Sui asked in horror, "Why?"

"There are no less than [-] troops stationed outside Qulu City. General Wang Lang is worried that Xiapi will be lost. He plans to take a break and attack Cao Cao's army in Qulu."

"Then what do we do?"
