The beginning of the Three Kingdoms Cheng Yuanzhi

Chapter 129
Not to mention that Cheng Yuanzhi was all based in Jizhou, held a big banquet, and married Baimei at one time.

But in the Battle of Youzhou, Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan fought fiercely several times in Yuyang. Each suffered losses and the situation was deadlocked.

The month turned to February of the third year of Chuping (192).

Whenever Gongsun Zan defeated Liu Yu and took advantage of the situation to advance to expand his victory, there would always be Jizhou soldiers and horses attacking him from behind.

If you kill forward, your back will be attacked, if you turn your head to fight, Liu Yu will counterattack.

This made Gongsun Zan unable to move forward, retreating and aggrieved, in a dilemma.

Moreover, after Jizhou's soldiers and horses are depleted, they will soon be replenished to [-] cavalry, but his soldiers and horses are getting fewer and fewer.

Of the 7 troops stationed in Yuyang, only [-] remained.

What made him even more angry was that a few days ago, Gongsun Zan received reports on the battle situation from Tian Yu, the governor of Qingzhou, and Shan Jing, the governor of Yanzhou.

In Qingzhou, the yellow scarves ravaged the whole territory. After the summer and autumn looting, they besieged Beihai at the beginning of the year. Kong Rong, the prefect of Beihai, sent someone to ask for help.

In Yanzhou, Liu Dai and Chen Bing, the governor of Yanzhou, were sharpening their swords at the border of Jinan County.

In Jizhou, "Yuan She" deployed heavy troops on the southern border of Leling County to block the Qingzhou Army's return to the north; at the same time, Chen Binghe bordered the country to prevent the Northern Army from going south.

Gongsun Zan was very angry!

Before, although his influence spanned the four states, the real core link was in Jizhou.

In Youzhou, because Liu Yu was very popular among the people, Gongsun Zan's life in Youzhou was actually very difficult.

For this reason, Gongsun Zan developed southward, eyeing the three continents of Hebei, Qing, and Yan. Unfortunately, the three armies came out at the same time and the troops were too dispersed. As a result, he did not move quickly enough and was plucked by "Yuan She".

After the latter occupied most of Jizhou, it soon controlled all of Jizhou.

Sever the bond!
The situation in Yanzhou was not good either. Originally, Shanjing only occupied half of the northeastern county of Yanzhou. Before the forces had time to penetrate, Liu Dai drove him back to Qingzhou.

Shan Jing was named the governor of Yanzhou, but in fact the soldiers and horses were stationed in Jinan County of Qingzhou.

Fortunately, Qingzhou's dominance is still there, which is the only thing to be thankful for.

However, since the soldiers and the territory were cut in two, "Yuan She" sent another soldier to participate deeply in the Youzhou battle.

Therefore, the current situation is extremely unfavorable to Gongsun Zan!
After many discussions with his subordinates, he agreed that if Shan Jing and Tian Yu's troops could not be withdrawn and Liu Yu could not be defeated within half a year, it would be dangerous...

Thinking of this, a flash of determination flashed in Gongsun Zan's eyes, and he shouted outside the commander's tent:

"Come on, beat the drums and gather the generals!"

The personal guard took the order and left.

After a while, the war drums rumbled.

Gongsun Zan personally led an army of [-] troops out of the camp and marched west to Liu Yu's camp.

The remaining [-] soldiers and horses made a gesture of staying behind in Yuyang.

Liu Yu's [-] troops camped a hundred miles west of Yuyang, with [-] Wuhuan cavalry and [-] Xianbei soldiers on both sides to protect them.

Wuhuan and Xianbei also increased their troops!
But these soldiers and horses were not too big a problem for Gongsun Zan. The only thing that worried him was the sneak attack from the rear.

Every time he made a move, that Sugai led four thousand horsemen and stabbed him from behind.

It made him want to die, and he couldn't stop.

But this time, hum...

While the troops were marching, Gongsun Zan glanced at the vast snow field to the north and the mountains to the south.The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he smiled sinisterly.

Seeing that there were still thirty miles away from Liu Yu's camp, and the battle was about to break out, the voice of "Kill, kill" came from behind as expected.

The Jizhou army has come to attack again!
Gongsun Zan quickly commanded the main force to return to the division, facing the sneak attack of the Jizhou army, and fought back.

At the same time, more than 1 soldiers and horses who were supposed to be guarding Yuyang City suddenly came from behind the Jizhou Army.

Anti-outflank!
Gongsun Zan is also a strategic warrior!

This is the place he chose for the Jizhou Army to die!
……

the other side.

As soon as Tian Feng heard that soldiers and horses were coming, Tian Feng was shocked, and hurriedly said: "This place is dangerous to the south and the north is vast. If you retreat, you will die. Please go forward with all your strength and pierce Gongsun Zan. The main force, joining forces with Liu Yu, will have a chance!"

Needless to say, Sugai also knew that there was only one way forward at this moment.

He tightened his grip on the black knife, nodded heavily, and took the lead in charging towards Gongsun Zan's main force.

Both sides played the war drums almost at the same time, and the horns sounded for a long time, which made people excited.

The soldiers on both sides shouted and bumped into each other head-on, like ice and snow under the scorching sun, quickly disappearing each other.

Under the leadership of Sugai, five thousand cavalrymen from Jizhou rushed forward like wolves and tigers.

Gongsun Zan's [-] troops also bravely met them head-on.

This time, the Jizhou army could no longer use the sneak attack method, and Gongsun Zan's army no longer used their buttocks to block the damage, and the two sides fought head-to-head.

On the snow-covered land of Youyan, fierce battles are raging.

On the battlefield, vivid faces fell down one by one, and blood quickly stained the snow red.

The Battlefield Churning Horn blares, and You Yan shakes and kills loudly!

An hour later.

The sound of fighting slowed down and gradually disappeared.

There are only countless corpses lined up in places where the two sides fought.

When there were only 1000 people left, the Jizhou Army finally broke through the siege and joined Liu Yu's troops who came to reinforce them.

After Gongsun Zan lost more than 5000 men, he quickly withdrew without giving Liu Yu a chance to pursue him.

The war fell into a brief lull.

The two sides returned to the starting position, silently licking their wounds and recovering their vitality.


……

Jizhou, Yecheng.

State Shepherd's Mansion, Chamber of Commerce.

Cheng Yuanzhi sat high on the throne, his face so gloomy that he could squeeze out water.


Sugai and Toyoda fell for the trick and lost a big battle, almost wiped out the whole army...

Although Gongsun Zan only had more than 4 troops left in Yuyang, Sugai's troops also completely lost their combat effectiveness.

At this time, I was on my way back to Jizhou.

Cheng Yuanzhi glanced around the hall, passed the faces of the advisers, and landed on Wen Chou Yanliang, Zhang He Gao Lan, Qu Yi Jiang Qi and other generals, feeling hesitant.

These six are currently the most capable generals in Jizhou.

The battle report of Sugai's defeat was being circulated among the six people at this moment.

After the six people finished watching the battle report, Cheng Yuanzhi said in a deep voice:

"Everyone. Do you have a good plan?"

The question was asked to everyone, but the eyes fell on Jushou.

Expected a lot from him!

Ju Shou stood up and asked, "My lord, do you expect Liu Yu to win? Or Gongsun Zan to win? Or both sides to lose?"

"If you want Liu Yu to win, please send troops to join the battle immediately."

"If you want Gongsun Zan to win, just stand still."

"If you expect to lose both sides, my lord, please go south immediately, recover Qingzhou, and kill Gongsun Zan!"

"In this way, even if Gongsun Zan defeats Liu Yu and occupies Youzhou completely, his vitality will be severely damaged, and he will lose one-third of his strength when he is at its peak."


Ju Shou was clear and gave three suggestions in an instant.

Cheng Yuanzhi nodded repeatedly.

Ju Shou continued: "Gongsun Zan is restrained by Liu Yu in Yuyang at this moment, unable to move. The land of Qingzhou is a good opportunity for our army to send troops!"

"Although there are still more than 7 troops and horses left by Gongsun Zan in Qingzhou, they are no longer a cause for concern."

"I, Jizhou, now have enough soldiers and food, hundreds of generals, mere Shan Jing, Tian Yu's mediocre generation, how dare to fight?"

Cheng Yuanzhi glanced at Jushou: "Gongyu, Le'an and Jinan, which should be the first?"

Among the six counties in Qingzhou, the three northern counties were controlled by Gongsun Zan.They are Le'an, Jinan and Qi.In addition, Kong Rong, the prefect of Beihai County, was also friendly with Gongsun Zan.

Both Le'an County and Jinan County border Jizhou. Le'an is in the east, close to Leling, and backed by the Bohai Sea. Tian Yu's troops are stationed here.

Including Jinan County, it is backed by Jizhou Plain County and close to Yanzhou, and the soldiers and horses of Shanjing are stationed here.

Ju Shou murmured: "My lord, let Le'an be the first priority. In this way, Liu Bei can be separated from Shan Jing."

"If we take Jinan first, Shan Jing and Liu Bei will not only be able to come to our aid, but they will also be able to rely on each other for offense and defense."

"it is good!"

Cheng Yuanzhi looked at the generals in the hall and said in a deep voice:
"Who dares to be the vanguard? Soldiers marching into Qingzhou will make unrivaled achievements!"

All the generals were eager to try this sentence of "unworldly merit", and their eyes instantly became hot. Qu Yi moved the fastest, came out and clasped his hands and said:
"My lord, the last general is willing to be the vanguard and lead the troops of the headquarters to explore the reality of Le'an."

"it is good!"

Qu Yi took the order and retreated to reorganize the army.

Cheng Yuanzhi began to order generals: "Zhang He, Gao Lan, I order you two to lead [-] soldiers and horses, coerce Jinan, and contain the soldiers and horses of Shan Jing."

"The rest of you, go with my [-] troops and march into Le'an!"

Everyone agreed and went down to prepare.

　Forgot the timer, two hours late!Awkward.
