Chapter 1142 Heita defeated Guangling, Chen Deng beheaded Huailiang
After the Changshe was destroyed, Li Xiang did not stay here for too long. He immediately ordered all his troops to press against Xuchang.
Only by putting enough pressure on Zhao Kuangyin would Zhao Kuangyin not be qualified to send troops back to Xuzhou.
At the same time, under Li Xiang's order, Floating Water House also began to take action aggressively, spreading the news about Xuzhou throughout the three states of the Central Plains.
"This field is not simple!"
"This is the fifth time that Cao Ren has suffered a loss!" During the march, Li Xiang took a battle report with great interest and said, not hiding his appreciation for Tian Juan Ju in his words.
Wei Qing played against Tian Dan in Yanzhou. Although he did not win a big victory, he definitely did not suffer a loss.
Here, Li Xiang also steadily advanced towards Xuchang after conquering Changshe.
It was even easier for Zhang Liao. He caught the opponent off guard from the beginning. In addition, the main forces later were attracted by Li Xiang. They advanced rapidly along the way and it was considered the easiest way to fight.
But the situation with Cao Ren and Hu Luguang was not optimistic.
Cao Ren suffered losses from Tian Ranju several times in succession. A plan to alienate Cao family members hit the hearts of everyone in the Cao family. Even if some people who were alert did not fall for the plan, some reckless men would eventually fall for it.
Fortunately, after Lu Su and others passed by, it was still possible to barely maintain it. Even if they would still suffer some losses at the hands of the opponent, they would only be small losses and the fundamentals would not be affected.
Hu Luguang was extremely relaxed at the beginning. With the advantage of his troops, he continued to divide his troops to fight. Although Xie Ai was also a good general, Hu Luguang, Gao Changgong, and Wang Ben divided their troops to attack. He could only focus on one thing and lose the other.
They can only hold on to their own important food and grass land, and are unable to take care of the rest of the county.
But after Zhao Kuangyin's reinforcements arrived, the opponent's troops in Runan began to be sufficient, and Hu Luguang and the others began to hit a wall. The reinforcements were not only accompanied by troops, but also included Tian Jin and other good generals.
Although Xie Ai and others still didn't take advantage, at least they were no longer in the passive position of being beaten like before.
"Tian Ruoju does have a few tricks up his sleeve, but it's difficult to change the overall situation with just one person!"
"My lord, when Zhao Ni is destroyed, these talents will be available for our lord's use!" Liu Bowen and other counselors said.
They have also read the battle report. Cao Ren is called a famous general in the Central Plains, and it is not for nothing. In the battle report, Cao Ren's series of operations basically made no mistakes. However, Tian Ruanju still found one small loophole after another and added them.
use.
"That's right. Talents like this should be admitted into our Jin Dynasty!" Li Xiang said with a loud smile.
"Tell Wei Qing to attack fiercely at all costs and never allow the enemy to return to support Xuzhou!"
"Tell the generals that when Xuzhou is captured, the battle in the Central Plains will be decided!" Li Xiang said with a rich and serious expression.
This is the top priority now!
Among the three states in the Central Plains, only one, Xuzhou, had not been damaged by the war before!
And a considerable part of the little food and grass left by Zhao Kuangyin's power is in Xuzhou!
If Xuzhou can be captured, not to mention the impact on the opponent's people, just capturing this part of the food and grass will be of great strategic significance.
Zhao Kuangyin maintains such a large army. If there is no food and grass, it depends on how he will fight this battle.
"promise!"
……………………
Zhao Kuangyin could not squeeze out enough troops to return to Xuzhou, so he could only place his hopes on Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Bei. However, at this time, with Chen Gui's surrender to Jin, the war situation in Xuzhou took new developments.
Chen Gui has already brought the Chen family to the Jin Dynasty. Of course, it is impossible for a descendant of a family like Chen Deng to follow his father and the entire family to fight against him.
And with him as the prefect of Guangling, Liu Heitai's attack on Guangling will naturally not have any surprises. Furthermore, Liu Heitai not only has 30,000 troops under his command, but also has fierce generals like Niu Hong, so even a strong attack will not happen.
Something unexpected happened.
Guangling guard general Gao Huailiang was invited by Chen Deng to go to the governor's mansion to discuss military affairs. However, the governor's mansion had just been built in front of him, and he was ambushed in advance by Feng Tai and Yuan Lang, who held hands and captured him.
These two people were Chi You's subordinates before. They were captured alive by Dou Jiande's forces in the Central Plains War and surrendered. These two people were top masters in the Water Margin. They were all at the level of the Five Tigers of Liangshan, and they also
They are considered to be a group of generals who were born very early. In the past more than ten years, they have been able to survive all the way to the present. In addition to luck, their strength is of course also impossible.
Although the two of them have not reached the point of being peerless, they both have super-peak level strength. The two of them can use their mental calculations and unintentional sneak attacks, so naturally they will not be unable to defeat Gao Huailiang.
And Gao Huailiang went to the county governor's house to ask for defense. His own territory was in his own house. Of course he would not bring too many soldiers, only a dozen guards, so that after entering the county governor's house, he could not even put up a strong resistance.
Neither can be made.
Afterwards, under the pretense of Gao Huailiang's order, Chen Deng summoned Guangling generals of all sizes into the governor's mansion, threw Gao Huailiang's head directly in front of the generals, and persuaded the generals of all sizes to surrender.
Gao Huaide was a close confidant of Zhao Kuangyin. As his younger brother, Gao Huailiang wanted others to surrender. It was not to say impossible, but at least a little difficult.
Therefore, after capturing him, Chen Deng simply killed him without any hesitation. Throwing a human head over would definitely have a greater impact on these generals. Furthermore, this was also a certificate of surrender, further indicating that
Loyalty to the Jin Army.
Chen Deng is a smart man. He naturally knows that now that he has made a decision, what should he do next? That position in Xuzhou is not easy to get, and they must show their value! As for what to do in this process
Even if it costs some lives, so what? Anyway, what is thrown is not his head.
The impact caused by Gao Huailiang's head being thrown was indeed great enough. Although Zhe Jimin and other generals instinctively resisted, most of them were Shi Chonggui and Du Chongwei who resigned themselves to their fate.
Even after Zhejimin and other generals resisted, Du Chongwei, who was thorough, helped Fengtai and Yuan Lang suppress the rebellious Zhejimin.
Although Zhe Jimin is also a famous general, he is not the kind of strong general who is famous for his bravery. Among Fengtai and Yuan Lang, no one can match him alone. When the two of them join forces, there is even a second-rate general like Du Chongwei.
With the help of Zai, there was no trouble at all, and he was directly killed by Chen Deng's order, further frightening the generals, big and small.
With Gao Huailiang in front and Zhe Jimin behind him, Chen Deng used these two heads to completely control the situation. It was precisely because of this that Liu Heitai's army had just arrived and took Guangling County without a single blow.
