"It seems that about five hundred meters should be within the effective range..." Liu Tao withdrew his hand and looked at the fallen general on the city wall. He learned from Zhang Ji beside him that that was Dong Zhuo's son-in-law Niu Fu, so there was no need to stay.

Dong Zhuo's family includes son-in-law, and in terms of their behavior, there is no possibility of pardon.

"………………” Zhang Ji opened his mouth and said nothing in the end. He just saw nothing, and saw Liu Tao lifting his hand. Soon, Niu Fu on the city wall fell down. Depending on the situation, it is likely that he would die.

"Person Zhang..." Liu Tao looked at Zhang Ji, "The gate of Cheng is open, you can lead the team in."

"Oh...here!" Zhang Ji was a little confused at first, then reacted and responded quickly, taking the five hundred remnants that had been captured before, then gathered the surrendered ones and rushed into Anyi County.

There is actually no suspense when the siege battle has reached this point. In the middle of winter, they are cold, and the soldiers guarding the city are as cold. The combat effectiveness has dropped significantly, but they are still subject to violent sieges of this level.

The result of unequal combat effectiveness is that there is no room for resistance and the city has fallen.

"General, the casualties have been counted." An hour later, Cao Cao finished his finishing, and came forward to report, "We were killed thirty-three people, more than 300 people were injured...most of them were Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu's troops."

In fact, you can be more confident and remove the "most" from the "small". The soldiers who are broken through the armor and then injured will be slightly injured, but it will not be fatal. So there will be twenty or thirty slightly injured soldiers in the more than 300 people. This is why Cao Cao said that.

In other words, the soldiers who were killed in the battle were all from Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu's troops.

"It's also expected..." Liu Tao nodded, "The whole army will rest for a day tomorrow and continue to attack other county towns the day after tomorrow. But next time, I won't participate directly, okay? Prefect Cao?"

"Subordinate the order!" Cao Cao replied immediately. Anyi County had been captured, and he, the prefect of Hedong, deserved his name.

"The defenders here will be incorporated into your command, and the supplies from Duanzi City will be transported here later. You can do it if you can't defeat Xihe or Shangdang." Liu Tao reminded.

"The subordinates will inevitably make Hedong solid!" Cao Cao hurriedly promised.

"Don't put so much pressure on yourself. Now Hedong County is in a mess. If you want to talk about manpower and supplies, there may be a shortage of people and materials. If Dong Zhuo's main force goes north and cannot defeat it, strategic retreat is also a means." Liu Tao shook his head, "Before leaving, I will give you a sentence, 'Save people and lose land, and both people and land are still there. If you lose land, all people and land are all there'."

"I am educated!" Cao Cao had obviously heard the meaning of this sentence.

As the winter gets closer, you can't waves for too long. One month is the limit. Now, depending on the situation, most of half a month has reached the limit.

Liu Tao was not interested in challenging the limits, so he almost left. He gave Cao Cao the territory, how to fight, how to comfort him, and how to manage it. He was left to him with a headache. When he comforted the place, he would take over his set in Bingzhou and pick peaches.

"Wenhe, I didn't expect that we would meet like this." As Cao Cao continued, Liu Tao turned his attention to Jia Xu, "You did not respond to the letter you sent to Luoyang before, which really made me feel a little uncomfortable."

Whether it is Li Ru or Jia Xu, he thinks that it is the most suitable person to manage the Jinyiwei. However, Li Ru is Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, and his position is probably difficult to keep him, so Jia Xu does not intend to give up.

"I didn't expect the general to worry so much. This is Jia's fault." Jia Xu did not defend himself, but just apologized for guilt. He must be afraid, but he knew better. Liu Tao said that means that the other party still valued him very much.

"I established a personal guard called the Jinyiwei. This personal guard is also responsible for supervising the officials under my command. Unfortunately, I do not lack excellent generals, but I lack one. I am proficient in intelligence processing and calculations, but I do not form cliques with others." Liu Tao looked at Jia Xu.

This job must be very offensive... Jia Xu really wants to complain. He has the nerve to throw this kind of tricky job to him. He doesn't know that what he doesn't want the least is to make enemies everywhere and make him very dangerous?

He even felt that Liu Tao did it on purpose, just because he was so familiar with him.

"I plan to appoint Wenhe as the commander of the Jinyiwei. I wonder if Wenhe can come to help me?" Liu Tao stood up and asked.

"I'm willing to serve the general." Jia Xu felt that he had no choice, but others were fine, but Liu Tao was a disciple of the immortal family, especially when he had just made a move, nearly four hundred steps away, the method of shooting Niu Fu was really irresistible.

"Well, Zhang Xiu and Zhang Ji, you two will follow me to return to Bingzhou. I will arrange for you later." Seeing Jia Xu agreeing, Liu Tao looked at Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu's two uncles and nephews.

"Here!" the two responded, actually a little happy. Going to Bingzhou is definitely better than staying in Hedong.

But they didn't know at all, so Liu Tao didn't plan to keep them in Bingzhou and would probably send them to Liangzhou next year. Ma Teng is currently only occupying Jincheng County and barely becoming a separatist warlord.

It was a period of hard work. At this time, their uncles and nephews had to endure a few years of hardship.

However, if Liangzhou can be defeated, then the contribution will obviously be unquestionable. No one can stop it at that time. The rise of their two uncles and nephews can be said to have gains and losses.

Whether it is a dragon or an insect, it still needs to be done well to know. Of course, Liu Tao didn't care much about this. His initial idea was nothing more than using his uncle and nephew, Wuwei, Zhang, to monitor and supervise Ma Teng to avoid losing control.

On the third day, Cao Cao and his army began to conquer cities and land everywhere. Perhaps because of the fact that Anyi County was defeated, the county magistrates of each county basically surrendered and captured the counties in Hedong without bloodshed.

During this period, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei came over and said that all counties north of the Fen River had been conquered. After confirming this incident, Liu Tao did not stay for a long time and went north without waiting for Cao Cao to come back.

He went north and made a little appointment, appointing Wei Zi as the governor of Hedong County. The latter also understood the significance of his appointment, so he naturally accepted it happily. He also promised that he would "assist" Cao Cao and manage Hedong County well.

As for the establishment of Pingyang County and the appointment of the prefect, we have to wait until Liu Tao returns to Bingzhou before making plans. Currently, the Hedong Prefect is temporarily under the jurisdiction of Hedong County, even if this place is originally under the rule of Hedong County.

Maybe it was winter, maybe it was because the supplies were not sufficient, and Dong Zhuo's main force did not go north. Liu Tao didn't care whether Dong Zhuo fell in Luoyang or not, anyway, it was a clean thing.

With Hedong County, he also had a base on the front line, and it would also become an important grain-producing land under his command. The next step is to take advantage of the challenge of Dong and defeat Hanoi County when he comes back, which is perfect.

"Lord, welcome back..." When he replied to Bingzhou, Xun Yu personally brought the officials out to greet him.
