I raised my head and heard the west wind, blowing some ruins and broken walls. There was smoke all over the place, and old corpses lay across the fields. The ruins were caused by the cold smoke, and the setting sun was silent. It was sad and melancholy. How could the emperor know?
The battle of Jiyin County came to an end, Cao Jun's reinforcement troops arrived, but they saw devastation everywhere and it was too horrible to look at. Xia Houyuan, the leader of the reinforcement army, looked sad and silent. He dismounted from his horse, took Cao Jun's flag, and stepped under the city wall. His arms suddenly fired.
With all your strength, the general's flag is raised to boost the morale of the entire army!
Under the control of Xia Houyuan, the military flag swayed with the wind. The morale of the reinforcements was majestic, and everyone was united. The murderous aura overflowed and gathered in the sky above the army, forming a vague momentum of a sharp golden white tiger killing.
"It's General Xiahou. Brothers, we are saved."
The wounded soldiers leaning against the city wall lowered their heads and looked outside. They saw the huge flags of Cao's army waving below the city and the red and blue banners of Xiahou in the army. They were ecstatic and immediately shouted to express their excitement.
The city gate was sealed, and Le Jin was exhausted and unconscious. He was leaderless and faced a dilemma. When all the soldiers were looking at each other, the generals of the garrison in Waihuang County, namely the rescued generals Shan Tinggui and Xie Fu, leaned against each other and mobilized all the people present who could.
The dedicated soldiers and the people in the city carried the sandbags at the city gate.
When people unite, Mount Tai will move!
After an hour of continuous damage from both inside and outside, the city gate that was sealed by sandbags finally became overwhelmed and collapsed. The sandbags that were tied together collapsed to the ground, raising heavy dust.
Lasts forever.
The city gate opened, and the supporting troops led by Xia Houyuan quickly moved in, cleaned the battlefield, buried the dead, and began to restore the city wall, thereby enhancing the confidence of the army and the people in resisting the enemy!
"General! The bandits are retreating hastily. We can take this opportunity to lead more than a thousand warriors to pursue them and show off the power of our army."
Xiahou Dun's warlike heart was burning. He strode to the crenellations of the city wall and looked at the direction of the rebel army's retreat. His heart was filled with enthusiasm. Then he came to Xiahou Yuan with his hands behind his back and asked for permission to lead his troops to attack!
"Yuan Rang, we rushed all the way to Jiyin County. The boat and carriage were tiring, and the soldiers were exhausted. It is not appropriate to attack the enemy at the moment..."
Xia Houyuan agreed with Xiahou Dun's thoughts from the bottom of his heart. As a general, the first priority is to make meritorious deeds and fight on the battlefield. It is so uncomfortable to defend the city and not even see the thieves.
However, this is a tense period and nothing should be done wrong. Although I also have the idea of leading the army to attack the enemy, for the sake of the overall situation, it is better to stick to the city and recuperate, so I politely reject Xiahou Dun's intention!
Xia Houyuan decided to act now and won a short period of tranquility for Jiyin County. Le Jin, the garrison general of the county, and Xie Fu and Shan Tinggui, the garrison generals of Waihuang County, recovered from their injuries and joined the army to accept Xia Houyuan's dispatch.
As the saying goes, the calm before the storm!
Jiyin County received support from Cao Bin and other generals, and its military strength reached a new high. Just as the soldiers were stationing troops to prepare for war, an urgent report came from the frontline scouts. Tian Hu, the commander of the rebel army, led his military advisor "Huan Mojun" Qiao Daoqing, Sun An, and Bian
Xiang, Shan Shiqi and other generals evaded the situation and occupied the two counties of Junyi and Fengqiu under Chenliu County, and prepared to attack Kaocheng County and then besiege Changyuan County.
At this point, Tian Hu's army had captured most of Chenliu. Cao Cao's power was in danger and he was in great danger of being annexed.
"Ding! The second 'Huan Tian' effect of Qiao Daoqing's skill is activated. It rains heavily in Chenliu County, and the generals with a basic force value of more than 80 in this camp will have their force value increased by 2 points. (This effect is more difficult to activate)
Bian Xiang's force value increased to 100, Iron Mountain Ax 1, Black Smoke Chasing the Moon Horse 1
Shan Shiqi's force value increased to 99, Black Iron Cold Flame Stick 1, Green Mane Pound Fat Horse 1
Sun An’s force value has increased to..."
"boom!"
There was a thunder in the gloomy sky, lightning suddenly illuminated the black clouds, and huge raindrops fell, soaking the entire Chenliu land.
The heavy rain fell on the soil, splashing up layers of mud, and the marching road became muddy. This gave Tian Hu's army time to rest and reorganize the army, and it also made it easier to win over the people of the captured counties!
The longer time passes, the more anxious Cao Cao's army becomes, and the more advantage it will have over Tian Hu and others.
"It rained heavily, which facilitated the rebel army. What should we do? How can Kaocheng County be safe?"
Xia Houyuan frowned and looked out the window at the pouring rain. He was lost in thought for a while. How long will this rain last? How many days or weeks or months? The road is muddy, the march is difficult, the crops are destroyed, and it is difficult to attack the city. Could it be a drop from the sky?
Disaster, bad for the Cao family?
Jiyin County's troops and horses were strong and ready to go, but they were blocked in the city by the pouring rain. They were in a dilemma!
The Battle of Chenliu in Yanzhou fell into a stalemate. Looking at another place, Wu Guang's army in Jiyin County, after defeating Qiao Mao and Zhang Miao's army, was lucky enough to survive from Cao Bin's army, and immediately retreated to Chen Youliang's army to replenish its troops and continue its plot.
Jiyin County.
The situation in Yanzhou was turbulent and fell into chaos. On the other hand, Yuan Shu of Yuzhou devoted himself to development and had strong troops and horses. In terms of strength and the number of soldiers under his command, he should be regarded as the first prince in the world!
If the Han Emperor was not still alive and could not blatantly usurp the throne, otherwise such a great country should be succeeded by the Yuan family.
Yanzhou comes to an end, let’s look at Xuzhou next door!
After Tao Qian, the shepherd of Xuzhou, respectfully sent Yuan Jun off, he worked hard to recruit virtuous people. He made friends with Liu Bei and Murong Yanda of Qingzhou in the north, and sent troops to the south to attack the bandits and rebel bandits in various places in Xuzhou.
Among them are the Jisang forces from Baihu Mountain in Donghai County and the Xiao Xian forces from Mangdang Mountain!
Fortunately, during this expedition, the mountain bandits and bandits from all over the country fled. The Jisang forces in Baihu Mountain and the Xiao Xian forces in Mangdang Mountain took the initiative to surrender after hearing this, and were taken under the command of Xuzhou Army and transformed into official troops.
The strength of Tao Qian's army in Xuzhou increased greatly, and he actually wanted to go north to support Qingzhou. When he was preparing to dispatch his soldiers to go on an expedition, military advisor Chen Gui said that the loyalty of the current surrendered generals was still unstable, and the expedition should be considered in the long term, and the situation in Qingzhou was chaotic.
If you lead your troops in hastily, you may suffer other unnecessary troubles!
Tao Qian acquiesced and dropped the matter of supporting Qingzhou.
Xuzhou seems to be stable on the surface, but who knows that within the territory of Pengcheng State, Lin Danran, who stayed in the county, established the Xiangshan Sect, calling himself the Xiangshan Patriarch, and received his first disciple Zhang Shanxiang, his second disciple Du Fuwei, and hundreds of followers, who wanted to work together!
Zhang Chao, the governor of Guangling County, was doing nothing and had no ambition to make progress. He lived in a corner. He knew that Lin Danran had established the Xiangshan Sect, but he didn't take it seriously. He also didn't report the news to the prefect Tao Qian. Who knew that his indifference today would lead to his death in the future?
Death laid the foundation.
Xuzhou comes to an end, let’s talk about the mixed situation of the northern grasslands!
The Western Qiang and the Northern Xiongnu had many tribes and countless forces. Among them, the force on the verge of Bingzhou was the Ashinarangan tribe. It had good relations with Bingzhou Mu Dingyuan and Yanmenguan Prefect Guo Yun, and had frequent contacts and frequent transactions.
