The first thousand three hundred and ninety-three chapters Liu Ye attacked Chen Liu
However, Chenliu is where Cao Cao started his career. Although Cao Cao has now moved the main body to Sili, he still leaves a considerable amount of troops in Chenliu.
In addition, Chenliu itself is a city with a high city and a deep city. Cao Cao has been running it for many years and has the help of the Chenliu Wei family internally. It can be regarded as an iron wall. This is why Chen Xi stopped in Jiyin when he took over Yanzhou.
After Fazheng took Yuzhou, Chenliu was actually isolated outside Cao Cao's rule. It was surrounded by Jiyin to the east, Yuzhou and Chenguo to the south, and Yingchuan to the southwest. The entire Chenliu was surrounded on three sides.
However, Liu Bei's focus at that time had been on dealing with Yuan Shao, so he did not have much conflict with Cao Cao, and Chen Liu remained.
I don't know if Cao Cao missed his hometown of Chenliu, or for other reasons. In short, when Liu Bei was freed up, Cao Cao did not completely retreat to Sili. Instead, he still stationed troops in Chenliu, as if he wanted to keep Chenliu.
generally.
Of course, this kind of thing is a joke in the eyes of discerning people like Liu Ye. Xun Yu, Cheng Yu and others left Chenliu. Although Chenliu still had a lot of garrison troops, in essence, Chenliu had been removed from Cao Cao's rule.
The political and military center became a general important town.
Although famous generals such as Li Dian, Yue Jin, and Cai Yang are still stationed here, Chen Liu is already a tasteless waste for Cao Cao. Chen Liu, who is surrounded on three sides, is destined to be impossible.
Guard it for Cao Cao.
Therefore, after Liu Ye came to Jiyin, he actively prepared to capture Chenliu. But how to put it, although Cao Cao was ready to give up Chenliu, his former hometown, it was definitely not what Liu Ye wanted.
You can get it if you take it.
Li Dian is cautious and careful, Le Jin is brave and good at fighting, while Cai Yang, although he is an average commander, has all his skills on that sword, so he cannot easily win it.
In addition, Li Dian's clan brothers Li Jin and Chen Liu are not so easy to get. Although they lack resourcefulness, neither Li Dian nor Le Jin will be easily swayed by Liu Ye. This also leads to the loss of a few people.
Under strict defense, Liu Ye really made no progress in testing Chen Liu.
Of course, most of the reason for this is that Liu Ye can't spare any time now. His first goal in coming to Yanzhou is not to attack Chen Liu, but to sit in Yanzhou and develop people's livelihood. He originally sent Chen Dao and Yu Jin to Liu Ye
Together, it's because these two people are very stable.
Even if Liu Ye had some dangerous ideas, with the character of these two people, they would never be easily taken down. Chen Liu was thinking about it and Chen Xi was thinking about it. It didn't matter whether he took it or not. After all, when it comes to attacking Cao Cao, they would definitely
Don’t leave Chen Liu.
Although Liu Ye knew what Chen Xi was thinking, how could he not take a bite when such a big piece of meat was always left next to him. As Liu Ye was busy with all the affairs in Yanzhou before, he really couldn't free his hands, so he could only test it with weak soldiers.
One or two.
After Zhang Ji arrived in Shanyang not long ago, Liu Ye quickly discovered the shining point of this official who was about the same age as him.
Zhang Ji can work overtime until very late, and he works hard and carefully. In addition, his ability is pretty good and he has great potential. Liu Ye naturally transferred a lot of farming and mulberry-related work to Zhang Ji's mountain.
Yang County to show its importance.
It was at this time that Liu Ye's insiders learned about the mobilization of Sili's troops. Liu Ye's mind did not take much time to figure out the current situation. He immediately transferred Yu Jin and Chen Dao to the border of Jiyin and made a decision.
The deputy commander was in a position to attack Chen Liu.
This behavior did not lead to changes in the deployment of Cao's troops. Chenliu County still calmly responded to Liu Ye's possible invasion.
Following this behavior, Liu Ye marched steadily towards Chen Liu, while Le Jin, who was guarding Chen Liu, sent troops to harass and at the same time began to concentrate his troops, as if he wanted to fight Liu Ye. However, before Liu Ye reached the city, Le Jin
I already said I would retreat, so I retreated.
This strange behavior surprised Liu Ye and he had other ideas. However, his purpose itself was to conquer Chenliu and occupy Yanzhou, so he didn't pay too much attention to it. Sometimes, the strategic situation determined the outcome.
.
"Liu Ye did not attack Chenliu directly, but instead attacked places like Yongqiu, Jiyang, and Pingqiu?" Le Jin frowned and said to Li Dian.
"Yes, except for Chenliucheng, Liu Ye defeated all the surrounding small towns without missing a single one." Li Dian also frowned. He didn't understand the meaning of Liu Ye doing such a thing at all. Apart from wasting his troops, what was the purpose of attacking Chenliu City?
The stay itself has no value at all.
After all, if Chenliu cannot be captured, Liu Ye will not be able to capture all of Chenliu County, and if Chenliu County cannot be captured, the areas he conquered now will have to be returned when he finally retreats.
"How about we invite sir?" Cai Yang, who had been sitting silently on the sidelines, couldn't help but say when he saw that the two of them really didn't have much in common.
"It's better not to do it. My husband said that Liu Ye is a genius in the world. If he had been prepared early in the morning, even he would have been hard-pressed to win or lose." Li Dian shook his head and said.
"Then it's okay for us to guess like this." Cai Yang said angrily, "How about I lead my troops to the north to test it all the way?"
"It's better not to do it." Li Dian thought for a while and rejected the idea. "Although the general is brave, Liu Ye is too wise to get any benefits."
"It won't work this way, that won't work either. Are we just waiting to be attacked by the enemy?" Cai Yang asked with a dissatisfied look on his face. Retreating without fighting would have a great impact on morale.
"Send out troops to test it out!" Le Jin suddenly said, "It's hard to get results if you keep waiting like this. If you test it out, even if you lose some troops, you can at least find out the details of the opponent."
"Well, let me test it myself!" Cai Yang immediately stood up and recommended himself.
"Which way should we attack?" After Le Jin made the decision, Li Dian did not say any more dejected words. Similarly, after Cai Yang recommended himself, Li Dian did not say that he would go too, and instead began to think about how to deal with the current situation.
.
"North road or south road?" Le Jin looked at Li Dian and asked.
"Why not the east road?" Li Dian suddenly asked with a smile.
"That east road is Liu Ye's main force as a military advisor..." Le Jin spoke immediately, but after he finished speaking, he suddenly came to his senses.
One of the northern and southern routes was Yu Jin, and the other was Chen Dao. Although the two were not well-known, Cao Cao's intelligence did not miss these two people. After all, 80% of Liu Bei's infantry were trained by Yu Jin and then handed over to other generals.
Up.
As for Chen Dao, there are not many recorded achievements, but when the three families fought against Yuan Shu, he really showed the strength of inner energy leaving the body. No one will underestimate this alone. (~^~)
