Chapter 391 The Intention of Going North

Chapter 393 The Intention of Going North

In the north in mid-April, the land is filled with the smell of gunpowder all the way.

On Ye Xiao's side, he quickly boarded the warship.

Down the Yangtze River, after a few days of driving, we arrived at the border of Yangzhou, and then rested in Danyang for a few days.

Then Ye Xiao began to settle many matters, and then sailed to the mouth of the lake by boat.

After the last battle of Yue Fei.

Sun Quan stood still and did not dare to act rashly again.

I only hope that Zhou Yu will successfully take down Cao Cao's position, and then come to relieve the pressure on Jiangdong.

Ye Xiao then continued to go south to join Yue Fei.

At the same time, this battle was like a booster, and it also intensified the competition for the Central Plains.

After receiving Ye Xiao's order, Bai Qi led [-] cavalry and [-] infantry from Xiangcheng to attack Hudi.

At the same time, Cao Cao also began to make some moves, and his troops sent Cao Ren to take Luanchuan and other places in one fell swoop.

Then there was a move to continue going south.

Even Goguryeo, which is far away in the cold north, did not forget to step in.

Capture the counties that Ye Xiao belonged to in the north.

Ye Xiao and Cao Cao dispatched troops almost at the same time, and within a short period of time, all Sun Quan's inland forces were wiped out.

However, within a few days, Cao Cao began to send generals such as Zhang Liao and Xu Huang to capture Gushi and other places along the Huaihe River, taking most of the counties into his pocket, and pointing directly at Ueno.

So far, Ye Xiao and Cao Cao's forces are bounded by the Weishui River, and the two armies are facing each other.

It wasn't until mid-May that the war in the north slowly came to an end.

Then in Ye Xiao's army, general Huo Qubing, counselor Zhang Liang, Liu Bowen and others went to Hulao Pass to confront Cao Cao's troops.

Ye Xiao had planned for a long time, and divided his troops into two groups.

The other team, Ye Xiao and Yue Fei, rushed to camp near Chaisang, preparing to attack Sun Quan who was stationed in Chaisang.

Ye Xiao thought to himself.

Now that he has already been offended, it is better to offend him to the end, not to mention that Chaisang is bound to win.

Yue Fei led the troops himself, and Ye Xiao supervised the army.

In less than half a month, Sun Quan had to abandon Chaisang and retreat to the mouth of the Han River because of insufficient food and grass in the rear and it was difficult for reinforcements to arrive.

After this battle, the cooperative relationship between Ye Xiao and Sun Quan also terminated.

Sun Quan lost to Chaisang, and after retreating into a rage, he wanted Ye Xiao's head all the time.

Even dreaming can hate teeth itching.

Waiting for Chaisang to capture it, a big stone in Ye Xiao's heart fell to the ground.

Poyang Lake can be used as a base for military training, or as the first choice for granaries. The local farming is mainly rice, and the local climate is suitable, and rice grows twice a year.

The role of Panyang Lake can not only be used as a training place for the navy, but also has a great supply capacity for Chaisang, which can be attacked when advancing and defended when retreating.

In this way, Ye Xiao has made great progress in the navy, and it is only a matter of time.

Then, a large-scale conscription was made in Chaisang, and [-] soldiers were sent to Yue Fei as backup candidates for the navy.

Because Ye Xiaojun's reputation is very good, he not only does not grab food, but also distributes food to the local people wherever he goes, so the local people are excited to report when they hear about the conscription.

With the injection of this batch of fresh blood, Ye Xiao really had the right to speak in the water domain.

After driving Sun Quan to Jiangxia, Yue Fei stepped forward to ask for a fight.

"My lord, Yue Fei invites Jiang Xia to fight. We are in a state of invincibility right now, why don't we take down Jiang Xia in one go?"

"Now Sun Quan has been driven to Jiangxia and refuses to stay."

"It is precisely because Sun Quan and Cao Cao are at war in the north, one is that we have no time to come back, and there is no spare force to fight against us, so we have an opportunity to take advantage of, and the other is that Zhou Yu is far in the north, but he has not returned at all. Trends, presumably Jiangdong must still rely on something, "

"Don't act too hastily. If we send troops to attack Jiangxia, then Sun Quan will recklessly counterattack. The most important thing for our army now is to rectify our troops and recuperate."

"Now we have the right to speak on the ship, so the top priority now is to train the navy well. Next, we will gradually transfer the battlefield to land. After all, land is our strength now."

"What I am currently worried about is not Sun Quan, but if Sun Quan and Cao Cao join forces, then we will fall into a very passive situation."

"Our attack this time has achieved what we wanted. Before, we just wanted to get Pan Yang, but now, even Chaisang has been taken down. Secondly, if Cao Cao didn't start a war with Sun Quan, we wouldn't have this chance Take the opportunity."

Ye Xiao thought that it was a good thing for Yue Fei to ask for a battle, and it was always a good thing for a general to be willing to fight for him, so he followed Yue Fei's advice and was unwilling to discourage Yue Fei's enthusiasm for this matter too much, so he turned around and changed the topic.

"Our top priority here is to defend Pan Yang."

Yue Fei immediately clasped his fists and said.

"Don't worry, my lord. With me personally guarding Pan Yang, nothing will go wrong. Anyone who comes will tell him to come and go."

At this moment, a secret report came suddenly.

Ye Xiao opened it and saw that it was sent by Zhang Juzheng who was far away from Hulao Pass, and it said on the bamboo tube.My lord sees good news, Cao Cao's subordinates Xu Huang, Zhang Liao and others stationed [-] soldiers here, fearing that Cao Cao's war in the north will change, and I hope my lord will make plans early.

Ye Xiao was puzzled at this moment.

The battle between Cao Cao and Zhou Yu was still in its intensified stage, how could there still be troops freed up to go to Hulao Pass? Cao Cao was not someone who could do such uncertain things.

Could it be that it is to tune the tiger away from the mountain?

At this moment, Ye Xiao suddenly thought of the possibility that Goguryeo, which is far in the north, might have made some moves, and cooperated with Cao Cao to divert the tiger away from the mountain and keep Chen Cang in secret.

Cao Cao can't take it lightly, but Goguryeo, which is far to the north, makes it difficult for Ye Xiao to let go, so Ye Xiao ordered.

"Send another [-] elite soldiers to garrison at Hulao Pass, and stand still."

Then Bai Qi was appointed as the former vanguard, and [-] spearmen were transferred to follow him to the north.

Regardless of whether it is Longtan or Tiger Cave, you have to go to the north to meet this Goguryeo for a while.

Goguryeo is dominated by herdsmen, and the nomads are the immediate overlords, so they also brought [-] pikemen to this trip, mainly targeting Goguryeo.

Even if Korea cannot be destroyed, it will have a psychological blow to them, making them fearful and afraid to act rashly in the Central Plains.

Most of the nomadic people live in tribal groups, some tribes raise horses, and some tribes herd sheep.

When grazing in summer, the cattle and sheep will change the place every time they finish eating a piece of grass.

According to soldiers in the north, their houses were dragged by horses for the convenience of grazing.

And in winter, without enough food, Goryeo began to go south to burn, kill and loot, committing all kinds of evil. Ye Xiao had a deep aversion to Goryeo Bangzi.

After all, Ye Xiao ordered [-] elite cavalry, sailed northward by boat, and agreed with Bai Qi to meet up in Bingzhou
