Chapter 171: their own resentment

 Chen Xi's madness was not a joke. When he attacked Fan County before, he just paid it back. After all, 70,000 troops besieged a small town where an unknown young general was stationed. After the attack, the entire Lu County was sealed.

Don’t call me again.

After dividing the troops, Chen Xi's troops were greatly reduced, leaving only Hua Xiong's 7,000 Buqu, Yu Jin's 4,000 veterans, Chen Xi's own 5,000 soldiers, and Xu Yi and Wu Dun's 4,000 soldiers.

There are only 20,000 people in total, but fortunately they are all veterans. Otherwise, Chen Xi really doesn't have much confidence in sending so many people across the state to attack Runan.

The good thing about this time is that there is no need to bring food and baggage. Chen Xi almost walked in a straight line. When he ran out of food, he ate directly in Yuzhou. I have to say that this grain-producing area is really good, and the weather this year is good. Yuzhou is not short of food.

Chen Xi was marching and borrowing food at the same time. His goal was to overwhelm Runan County Pingyu within a month!

Chen Xi tried his best to maintain a forced march, and had destroyed several cities along the way. Fortunately, the defensive forces left by Yuan Shu in Yuzhou were not sufficient. After Liu Bei divided his troops, Zhang Xun seriously set his sights on Liu Bei as the monarch.

We have already had several fights with Liu Bei in Pei Guopei County, where the old Liu family made their fortune, but it is obvious that they have not won a single battle. When Liu Bei went there on the first day, he failed to make a sneak attack and fell into Jia Xu's scheme.

, his camp was gone, and Zhang Fei led his troops to hunt him down all night.

Later, he stuck to Peiguo and was lured out by Jia Xu to kill him for a while. He almost lost his life to Zhang Fei. Then he fled all the way, but Jia Xu ordered Zhang Fei to follow him and chase him. After three days of chasing, Zhang Xun took the lead.

As they entered Linju, Zhang Fei came in with a kill. Now, Jia Xu was forced to suppress him in Qiao County with his weak troops and could not get out. He could only ask for help from everywhere. It would not be long before Yuan Shu received an urgent report from Qiao County.

Chen Xi is now very lucky that Yuan Shu has not moved his hometown to Jiujiang County in Yangzhou, which is Shouchun City when Yuan Shu became emperor in later generations. Now his hometown is still in Pingyu. If he moved to Shouchun City, Chen Xi could only curse that he would kill the thief but not be able to save his life.

Because it was too far. Although Pingyu was a bit far away now, there were not too many obstacles along the way. Chen Xi rejected Hua Xiong's proposal to bypass Chen Guo and went directly to the straight line. Since Jia Wenhe fought vigorously there,

Having trapped Zhang Xun, now only Xun Zheng and Qiao Rui are left in front of them.

Within ten days, Chen Xi led Hua Xiong and Yu Jin defeated two cities in a straight line. Although Zhengqiu was basically destroyed by a sneak attack, in Xiayi that followed, Hua Xiong took Zhengqiu's talisman and lured Yuan Shu's troops away.

After coming out, Yu Jin stormed the city and captured it half an hour later.

On the 15th, Chen Xi's troops invaded Ku County, but this time all his troops wore the clothes of Yuan Shu's troops. When they passed by Jianping, Zhang Xun's formal transfer order document was sent by Jia Xu's order, which directly tricked Xun to death.

Right, Ku County went down.

After that, there was chaos in the transfer of orders in the Xunzheng defense area. Chen Xi relied on reasonable defense transfer documents to capture Ningping and Xiang County.

Finally, the army arrived at Runan on the 25th. Pingyu was right in front of him, but at this time all the clever tricks were meaningless. Qiao Rui had learned Chen Xi's usual tactics from Xun Zheng and blocked them directly.

After entering the city gate, the 30,000 Yuzhou troops did not fight Chen Xi at all. It was a great achievement to defend Pingyu. If Pingyu failed and the main link between Jingzhou and Yuzhou was cut off, no number of bridges would be enough to cut down.

"Commander, how do we fight this?" Hua Xiong stared at the majestic city in front of him, his contempt for Qiao Rui couldn't be greater. There were so many soldiers who didn't dare to go out of the city to fight, so they just became a tortoise.

"It depends on the situation. If Yuan Shu has the intention to return to the army within five days, we don't have to worry about it. If within five days, Yuan Shu has no intention to return to the army." Chen Xi stood at the foot of the city and looked up at the huge city and sighed, "

Then we can only defeat it. As for how to defeat it..."

Siege is a technical job. In ancient times, some people directly relied on tactics to complete sieges. Some people's sieges relied purely on crowds. It is obvious that Chen Xi's men are really looking for death if they rely on crowds.

Hua Xiong was also indifferent and speechless. The giant city of Pingyu was well-equipped with troops and supplies. If the opponent was completely fooled, then there would be no way to break the city without hundreds of thousands of people working slowly for a year and a half.

Just like Yuan Shu's attack on Jiangling now, unless he can capture Jiangling in one go, Liu Biao may be able to reverse defeat if he continues to delay. Think about how Cao Cao besieged Ye City. It took him more than a year to capture it, and in the end he relied on

The water attack barely captured Yecheng.

Thinking of this, Chen Xi felt a big headache. If Pingyu could win, he would directly hold the Yuan family's family captive. Yuan Shu would be confused in ten cases, but Yuan Shu only had one son, so he could not protect him.

It's no joke. It can be said that the 30,000 soldiers of Ping Yu and the general Qiao Rui are actually used to protect Yuan Yao, the legitimate son of the Yuan family. Therefore, the idea of ​​attracting the attention of the Yuan family can be extinguished.

Think about how to win Pingyu with as few casualties as possible.

Liu Bei, the news of Cao Cao's capture of Yuzhou has already been placed on Yuan Shu's case. At first, he thought it was just a scabies disease. However, in the past few days, the information that came from Zhang Xun, Xun Zheng, Li Feng, and Liang Gang did not appear.

One who can withstand Cao Cao and Liu Bei.

Especially Cao Mengde, his actions were so fast that Yuan Shu felt unbelievable. On the first day he got the information that Cao Mengde's troops were leaving Yingchuan, Yuan Shu was still scolding Cao Mengde for seeking death, and he must show off to Cao Mengde when he returned.

Before Cao Mengde arrived, he had already defeated the three most important counties and cities in Yingchuan, Yangzhai, Yingyin, and Yingyang!

Subsequently, critical information appeared in Xiangcheng, Dingling, Kunyang, and Wuyang. The day after receiving the crisis information, Yuan Shu's urgent transfer order had not yet reached various places, and the information about the city's destruction had already been placed.

On several cases.

As for the situation on Liu Bei's side, the situation is not good, but compared to Cao Mengde's unknown siege methods, Liu Xuande is much more stable. At least Liu Xuande won a big victory on all three routes. Now every one of them is blocked in the city he worked so hard to build.

The county is under control.

"Come here first." Yuan Shu ordered the messenger beside him. Recently, Yuan Shu always felt that Lu Bu was not trying his best. He went to fight Huang Zhong on time when he attacked the city every day, but so far he had not seen Huang Zhong.

Zhong or Lu Bu had been injured, and the morale of the Jiangling garrison would rise every time after a battle. The originally low morale was lifted to an extremely high level by Lu Bu and Huang Zhong's daily duels.

"General, Yuan Jiujiu has something to ask you again." Zhang Liao said with his hands in hand.

"Ignore him and tell the messenger that I am practicing martial arts. He will not say anything else except asking me to kill Huang Zhong every day. I fight with all my heart every day and come to his Yuan Gonglu to lay down a huge territory for him.

Not only did he not reward me, but he always scolded me for not being able to kill Huang Zhong! He, Yuan Gongliu, is worthy of me!" Lu Bu said angrily.

As the morale of Yuan Shu's army became increasingly low, Yuan Shu's resentment towards Lu Bu gradually emerged. He did not take into account that Lu Bu was the hero who had won such a large territory for him, and he was not his subordinate. Naturally, Lu Bu also resented Yuan Shu. (

To be continued...)
