: Trouble in Bingzhou

Zhang Liao has led the Yulin Cavalry into the Hedong area for more than half a month. Press ctrl+d to quickly collect """

It didn't take long, but it had already turned the entire Bingzhou into a mud. What's more interesting is that as the Yulin Cavalry entered the Bingzhou area, the Black Mountain bandits who were originally rampant in Bingzhou also took the opportunity to attack, causing the soldiers under Yuan Shao's tent to have to

Use all your strength to deal with all kinds of messy situations.

Under such circumstances, how could anyone still have the energy to manage Gongsun Zan?

What's more, in Yuan Shao's eyes, it didn't matter whether Gongsun Zan, the defeated general, lived or died, because Gongsun Zan not only lost all his territory, but also completely destroyed the White Horse Yi Cong, which he relied on most.

Gongsun Zan, who had no soldiers and territory, could no longer pose a threat to Yuan Shao. At this time, Yuan Shao did not mind showing his ambition and leaving Gongsun Zan's family alive - even if Yuan Shao's advisers and generals suggested killing them all, Yuan Shao also

I didn't take this matter too seriously.

Especially after a mysterious army appeared in the Bingzhou area, and Zhang Yan, who had been entrenched in the Bingzhou area, took the opportunity to launch an attack, he took advantage of the situation and focused his attention on these two groups of people. As for Gongsun Zan, he was too lazy to pay attention to it.

For this reason, Yuan Shao mobilized Yan Liang and Wen Chou, two of his most trustworthy generals. In Yuan Shao's eyes, no matter who was causing trouble in Bingzhou, as long as these two people go there, all troubles can be solved.

"I'll definitely teach those guys who overestimate their abilities a lesson!"

Only half a month has passed, and there is still no good news from Yan Liang and Wen Chou. Although Yuan Shao is a little anxious, he also knows that it has only been half a month, and there is no need to care so much, but he always feels that there is a feeling in his heart that he is not ready for a second.

This feeling becomes stronger as time goes by.

At the same time, Zhang Liao rode in with Yu Lin for a while, hid in a less noticeable area, and let the troops rest and recuperate on the spot.

They didn't set up camp or even light a fire directly. Instead, they sent out scout horses to make a long circle. After making sure it was safe, they raised a fire to prepare for rest and some hot food.

As a general, Zhang Liao was naturally able to get good things immediately, but he did not enjoy it right now. Instead, he called his two deputies over and studied the next direction together on the map.

From the moment he crossed the Yellow River, Zhang Liao led his Yulin cavalry straight to Jie Liang. He led his troops and horses in a circle around Jie Liang, causing harm to many farmers' fields and killing some local soldiers before fleeing far away.

go.

They have been doing this for a while, and now the entire Bingzhou has been thrown into chaos by them. However, after the initial chaos, Yuan Shao's troops have begun to mobilize and assemble. According to Zhang Liao's estimation,

, within ten days, the soldiers and horses led by Yan Liang and Wen Chou will surround us.

Ma Chao lowered his head and looked at the map intently, and after thinking for a long time, he said: "How about we attack Hedong directly?"

"Attack Hedong?"

Hedong is Anyi, which is the administrative seat of Hedong County. Taking Anyi is equivalent to directly occupying the center of Hedong County, and even blocking the transportation links of the counties east of Hedong County heading west.

But...what does capturing Hedong mean to them?

"Our main purpose this time is harassment. Seizing the city and seizing land is not the purpose of this time. If we capture Anyi, we will be restricted in the city and will not be able to exert the maximum combat power of our Yulin Cavalry!"

Taishi Ci never spoke, and he didn't even speak much. He followed Zhang Liao or Ma Chao all day long, trying hard to absorb all the new knowledge.

Zhang Liao could tell that Taishi Ci was still adapting to this new knowledge. Once he fully accepted and mastered it, he would be able to show his true strength.

This time, his original intention was to bring Taishi Ci to make him more familiar, and he did not expect Taishi Ci to come up with any ideas. Unexpectedly, Taishi Ci put forward his own suggestions at this time.

"I think what Meng Qi said is not impossible!"

"oh?"

Zhang Liao was not a general who acted arbitrarily and did not listen to the suggestions of his subordinates. Moreover, Zhang Liao was still young at this time, had no great achievements, and felt that his experience was shallow, so he paid great attention to other people's suggestions.

Seeing Taishi Ci suddenly speak, Zhang Liao made a gesture to indicate that he should continue speaking.

"Anyi is the seat of Hedong County, and its importance to Hedong County is self-evident! If we capture Anyi, the impact on Yuan Shao and his civil and military forces can be imagined!"

If Anyi is really captured, then Yuan Shao and his subordinates will be extremely surprised, and at the same time they will definitely be panicked and anxious, and they will never let their troops stay safe in Anyi city.

"In other words, capturing Anyi will cause chaos in Hedong and even the entire Bingzhou. This is also our original purpose!"

Taishi Ci thought about it for a moment and saw that Zhang Liao didn't say anything, so he continued.

"At the same time, we don't have to give up our Yulinqi's own strengths for a city. After Anyi is captured, we don't need to defend the city, but focus on destruction... City defense, farmland, workshops and warehouses, food and grass can be obtained

Just take it, you can’t just take it and burn it on the spot, then we can abandon the city and leave!”

"You can even give the soldiers who came to the rescue a hard blow when you were leaving!" Ma Chao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he directly answered.

Taishi Ci nodded: "Yes, it's not impossible to even take the opportunity to defeat one of Yan Liang or Wen Chou!"

After finishing speaking, Taishi Ci just stared at Zhang Liao, wanting to see what he would decide. Ma Chao, on the other hand, looked eager to try, obviously moved by Taishi Ci's proposal.

After a moment of silence, Zhang Liao pointed his finger at Wen Xi's position and said, "Let's go here!"

Seeing this, Taishi Ci couldn't help but sigh a little, but it was normal to attack Wenxi, and he could avoid being surrounded by Yuan Shao's army.

Unexpectedly, just as he was thinking this, he saw Zhang Liao's finger suddenly turn on the map: "Then suddenly go south and go straight to Anyi, catching them off guard. Only in this way can we buy enough time to destroy those targets in Anyi!"

"

Their battle this time was within enemy territory. Before coming, Liu Xuan specially summoned him and talked to him a lot.

This includes what items should be destroyed first when fighting in enemy territory.

Although Yuan Shao's territory also belongs to the Han Dynasty, it can also be regarded as Liu Xuan's land. The people of Hebei are also the people of the Han Dynasty, but at this time they cannot consider that much.

When fighting, if you worry so much, you will only get yourself into trouble.

As for whether the people of Bingzhou would suffer any disaster after Zhang Liao severely damaged these things, it was not for Liu Xuan to consider.

He even wanted to use this method to force the people of Bingzhou to move out, preferably within the court's sphere of influence.

Although the population of Yongzhou area is relatively high at present, Sizhou, Yanzhou, and Yuzhou, which have suffered from the scourge of war, have lost a large number of people. Most of them have poured into Jingzhou and Jiangdong areas.

Although the war in Hebei caused some people from Hebei to go south and enter these areas, in Liu Xuan's opinion this was not enough. He hoped that more people would come over.

Sending Zhang Liao to destroy Bingzhou can be regarded as a means to force the people to move - it is not honorable, but this method is very effective.

Because currently in the world, only the areas under the jurisdiction of the imperial court have enough food to feed so many people who have left home. The rest, even Yuan Shao, who controls the four states of Hebei, is unable to do anything because of successive wars.

If the population of Hebei is reduced as a result, it will be a huge blow to Yuan Shao. Because in this era, not only is conscription based on a huge population base, but also people are needed to grow food, make weapons, and even logistics.

People, Liu Xuan forced the people under Yuan Shao to move, which was to weaken Yuan Shao's strength from the roots, and at the same time increase his own.

If you can strengthen yourself and weaken your enemies, why not?

However, even though that is said, due to some reasons, the Yulin Cavalry cannot directly go to Bingzhou to rampage under the banner this time, so although the set of lightweight armor specially made for the Yulin Cavalry has been collected for 5,000 sets,

This time, he was not equipped with any equipment. Instead, he came out wearing relatively ragged clothes and only brought a quiver and a specially equipped ring-shou knife.

So at first glance, they are almost the same as rogues, except that everyone in this rogues is carrying a bow and arrow, which is very strange, but as long as they don't really fight against the Yulin Cavalry, they won't notice this.

.

After making a plan, Zhang Liao let the troops rest for one night, and before dawn the next day, he took the troops and headed east. He did not hide anything along the way, and went to hear the news with great fanfare.

Wen Chou and Yan Liang were naturally aware of such a big movement. Wen Chou, who was close to each other, immediately changed the direction of his troops and rushed towards Wen Xi. According to his estimation, although the strange bandit was extremely fast, because he was closer, he

We can still get there first, and then we can wait for the arrival of this army based on the city.

Yan Liang was a little depressed. He had just come out of Anyi with his troops. As a result, the bandits suddenly rushed towards Anyi. Yan Liang could only adjust the direction of travel to rescue, but the direction he chose happened to block the bandits.

When the time comes, we will attack from both sides with Wenxi's garrison, and we will definitely give this group of bandits a good look.

Just when he was feeling proud, he didn't expect that Zhang Liao took his Yulin Cavalry to make a big detour. After going in a circle and completely confusing everyone, he suddenly turned his head and headed south to attack Anyi.

At this time, Yan Liang thought that he was still following the troops and heading towards Wenxi, but Wen Chou? He had already arrived at Wenxi and was standing on the city wall, eagerly waiting for the thieves to come.

As for Anyi, which was designated as the real target by Zhang Liao, although the city gates were not wide open at this time, there was no defense at all!
