Han counter current

Regarding the situation before them, Chen Feng and Jia Xu had more or less guessed it. Cao Cao was very smart, and his advisers were also extremely wise, but Jia Xu was not bad either.

At least, Cao Cao's series of orders are a bit strange. Although Jia Xu can't conclude that Yuan Shang will attack Youzhou, no prince wants to see his lord firmly in the north.

This principle is too simple, how could Jia Xu never think of it, if he can't be prepared in this situation, can he still be called a military adviser?Therefore, from the very beginning, he discussed some countermeasures with Chen Feng.

It was Xu Huang who led the army to attack the grasslands in the east of Xianbei. As for the Chen Feng that everyone saw, it was just Zhao Yun in disguise.These methods temporarily concealed from outsiders.

It would be a waste to let Zhao Yun's talent go unused. In addition, Zhao Yun hated the barbarians in the grassland, so he readily agreed to Chen Feng's request.

Chen Feng knew in his heart that instead of being wary of Yuan Shang and those local families with different ideas in Youzhou, it would be better to give them a chance to let them jump out completely.

It's hard to guard against family thieves. Chen Feng and Jia Xu didn't expect that the local aristocratic families in Youzhou would be so concerned about Yuan Shang's attack on Youzhou, and they would make such a big commotion at this time.

"After waiting for so long, it should be almost done. Where are Yuan Shang's soldiers?"

In Dai County, in a hidden valley, more than 2 war horses and more than 1 soldiers are resting here. This is Chen Feng's trump card to deal with Yuan Shang.

After the battle, the troops were replenished and trained again, and there was the newly formed Five Thousand Ghost Face Army, which was the most powerful army under Chen Feng.

The [-] fierce cavalry and [-] ordinary cavalry selected from the tens of thousands of Xianbei captives were the troops that Chen Feng could save from the conscription troops from various places.

These people who could be selected by Chen Feng to stay by his side, and now gathered in the valley, are all arrogant soldiers, and each of them has at least several lives in their hands.

Compared with Yuan Shang's current 1 army, these troops must be a little less, but compared to the field combat ability and elite level, these [-] people are definitely the first-class army in the world.

"My lord, the main force of the enemy army is divided into two groups, one is going to the Yuyang area, intending to attack Yuyang and Youbeiping.

A group came towards Shanggu, trying to seize our army's heavily-supplied land.Most of the enemy troops staying in Zhuojun were servants of those aristocratic and powerful families, and there were about tens of thousands of people. "

"How many enemy troops marched into Shanggu?"

"There are [-] regular troops, [-] servants, and more than [-] forced conscripts. In addition, this army seems to be forcibly abducting civilians along the way to join the army."

After Yuan Shang's soldiers and horses entered Youzhou, they did not restrain the military discipline, especially those servants of the aristocratic families. They took this opportunity to show off their power and bully the people. Many local people were forcibly conscripted into the supply team.

"Let's make a fuss, the more you make a fuss, the faster you will be destroyed."

Chen Feng nodded. He had heard about the enemy's military discipline and style, but he never thought that since Yuan Shang wanted to regain Youzhou, why would he do so many unreasonable things in Youzhou.

"Pass down the order, the whole army pulls out the camp, the target, go up to the valley."

"promise,,,,,,"

For large-scale army battles, Chen Feng knew that he was not capable enough, but for a battle of 3 to [-] people, he was still somewhat sure.

In his opinion, as long as he doesn't meet a hero like Cao Cao, he doesn't care about other unknown little generals, not to mention that he brings Lu Xun with him.

After capturing Zhuojun, Yuan Shang sent another [-] soldiers into Youzhou. This was the largest force he could spare from the southern battlefield. After all, his elder brother was still eyeing the territory of Jizhou.

In order to support the war in Youzhou, many supplies and armaments were transferred from Hejian to Zhuojun. Yuan Shang, who started the war on two fronts, seemed to want to take back Youzhou.

As Yuan Shang's soldiers and horses were raging in Youzhou, all kinds of rumors about Yuan Shang's collusion with the barbarians, bullying the people, and killing innocent people were spread.

Especially the ordinary people in Zhuojun and other places felt Yuan Shang's ferocity firsthand. Invisibly, Yuan Shang's soldiers and horses who occupied Zhuojun and other places were hated by the local people.

But they didn't dare to resist, their anger was accumulating, and no one knew when it would erupt.But this anger will definitely explode, it depends on who will ignite it.

The Yuan Shang army that marched into Shanggu fought all the way to the city of Shanggu. This team composed of [-] cavalry, [-] infantry, and less than [-] recruits had a strong desire to fight.

After all, they were invincible along the way, and all the cities along the way were captured by them. Although the Shanggu city in front of them was very tall, the leading general arrogantly thought that it would not take long for them to take it.

Chapter 226 The Battle of Youzhou 2

Yuan Shang's army along the way looked really powerful. At least, they had maintained a high fighting spirit so far. Facing the war, they never fell behind.

It's a pity that the general didn't understand the difference between Shanggu and Zhuojun.In order to deal with the Xianbei people in the north, Chen Feng set up his base camp in Shanggu.

It can be said that during the period when the Hu people went south, this was the military center of Youzhou, and it was the base camp for the entire north to fight against the Hu people's cavalry.

There were dissidents in the local area, or there were actually aristocratic families who were not very interested in Chen Feng, but they were all purged.This means that in this area, there will no longer be a family that will become the internal support of Yuan Shang's army.

If they still exist now, they will also weigh their own weight, and more importantly, weigh Chen Feng's methods and the hearts of ordinary local people.

Moreover, because Chen Feng and his troops fought bravely against Hu, they naturally won the support of Shanggu, the people closest to the frontier defense.

If these ordinary people had to choose between Chen Feng and Yuan Shang, they would definitely choose Chen Feng.Maybe these people are very realistic, but in this world, who is not realistic.

If they didn't choose Chen Feng to be nice to them, would they still choose to abandon them at critical moments, and Yuan Shang who usually exploits them to the utmost?

[-] defenders, [-] civilians, this is all the troops of Shanggu now, and there are still many soldiers and horses on the Great Wall defense line, but Jia Xu did not use these people.

After all, the tribes on the grassland were always watching the Great Wall defense line, even if Chen Feng's elite troops were patrolling the grassland at the moment.

"In two days, capture Shanggu, attack the city, loot for three days, kill..."

As soon as he arrived at Shanggu City, Yuan Shangjun quickly launched an attack, and the leading general knew that he was running out of time.

Before the expedition, Yuan Shang told him that before Chen Feng's main force came back from the grassland, they must take the territory south of the Great Wall as soon as possible.

"There are countless livestock and property in the city, whoever kills them, kill them, and those things belong to you, soldiers, kill them..."

Apart from a strong attack, Yuan Shangjun can't find a better way now, after all, they have an advantage in strength.

However, is Shanggu so easy to attack? Many weapons that were used to deal with the Xianbei people are still hoarded here, and now they are just used to deal with these arrogant Yuan Shang's army.

On the other side, a cavalry team of about tens of thousands of people is rapidly approaching the valley. This cavalry team is well-equipped, the sergeant is capable, and the horses are sufficient.

They have a clear goal and cooperate with each other tacitly. The scouts scout out the outside to find out the news, and at the same time clean up the enemy's eyeliner. When they are only sixty miles away from the upper valley, the speed of this cavalry team finally slows down.

"Report, my lord, the scouts ahead are here to report that the enemy has already attacked the city. Our scouts can only get closer to within [-] miles of Shanggu to inquire about the news, otherwise they will definitely be noticed by the enemy."

"It's almost there. It's not too far from Shanggu. Send an order to set up camp on the spot. We'll rest here for one night and defeat the enemy tomorrow."

"promise,,,,,"

After daybreak, Yuan Shangjun who was stationed outside Shanggu City buried pots and cooked food. Yesterday's attack was not fierce, but they tested the reality of Shanggu City.

In the opinion of the leading general, Shanggu City is indeed a lot more difficult, but there are not many troops defending the city. If we attack today, we still have a chance to win the city.

"Kill,,,,,,"

Groups of Yuan Shangjun officers and soldiers carried shields, and civilian husbands set off towards the city with sandbags on their backs. Yesterday's battle has not dispelled their fighting spirit.

It seems that these soldiers think that it is not too difficult to take down the city in front of them, and many civilians are also busy under the driving of the soldiers, even if they are extremely reluctant.

"The enemy army is full of fighting spirit. A group of stupid pigs started to attack without even knowing the situation in the city. Isn't this a waste of human life?"

On the tower, Hao Zhao, the lord of the city, stared at the enemy outside the city with a sneer, constantly calculating the enemy's troops and formations.
