Chapter 48 Guo Jia leads the army

Although Qingzhou has become a wasteland after Cao Cao and Sun Ce relocated twice, in terms of strategic sense, this is an important part of completing the double-team of Cao Cao. In Qingzhou, the entire force of the Cao army was as if it was pinched. Now Ye Zhao stationed troops in Kunyang, Xu Rong stationed troops in Xinzao, Ji Ling stationed troops in Chenliu, and Qingzhou army. This time, Ye Zhao invested nearly 200,000 troops on the battlefield in the Central Plains, which was the largest bet ever since Ye Zhao became a prince.

Guo Jia's mission is either an attack or a restraining Sun Ce, so that Ye Zhao has enough time to swallow Cao Cao.

"Sir." Ding Li walked over and bowed to Guo Jia and said, "Sun Ce's troops were stationed in Ju County, with the general Taishici stationed. This place is located in Jiwu Mountain. The terrain is mountainous and surrounded by Shu water. Our army's equipment is difficult to exert its power. It is difficult to conquer the city with only troops and horses. Then Taishici is cautious in guarding the city and is unwilling to go out of the city to fight."

"Taishici, Jiangdong General, I heard that this person is not brave enough to be a man." Guo Jia knocked on the table and smiled: "Now the lord is fighting with Cao Cao. If Taishici is here, Sun Ce can mobilize a large army to support Cao Cao! Is there any other road that can be detoured and attack Xuzhou?"

"Yes, you can take a detour to Langya, cross Haiqu, and walk to Zhengrong Valley, and go directly to the rear of Ju County." Ding Li nodded and said, "But most of this place is in the mountains, and it is difficult for large troops to pass through."

If the army wants to leave, the baggage must also be kept up, otherwise what will the soldiers of the three armies eat?

"Since that's the case, you will lead a group of people to go to Langya!" Guo Jia smiled and said, "Go to Zhengrong Valley and occupy Moutai and Yang first."

"Ah!?" Ding Li looked at Guo Jia in shock: "But sir, this place of Langya..."

"Of course!" Guo Jia put an arrow on Ding Li's hand and smiled: "Don't worry too much about other matters, please come to see me."

"Here!"

Ju County, county government.

"General!" A small school came in and bowed to Taishici and said, "The scouts sent by our army have been exploring, and the Ye army sent a group of troops to Langya."

"Langye?" Taishi Ci was stunned when he heard this. He was originally a native of Qingzhou, so he naturally knew that the road in Langye was difficult to move. He quickly looked at the map and then sneered: "I heard that Guo Jia is the think tank of Ye Zhe. Now it seems that, but now, seeing that Ju County is difficult to attack, I want to take a detour and cut off my retreat?"

"What should I do?" The generals were shocked when they heard this.

"If you want to attack our army's rear, you must go to Zhengrong Valley. The mountains here are dangerous. Wait until I break the brigade's strange soldiers first, and then break the Guo Jia's army!" Taishi Ci said with a smile.

Three days later, Ding Li led his army to Zhengrong Valley. He was about to enter the valley, but was stopped by a young general and said, "General, before the military advisor set out to war, he handed this letter to the last general. He ordered the last general to hand over the letter to the general before the army arrived at Zhengrong Valley. When the general saw the letter, he must follow the order!"

Ding Li was stunned when he heard this. He took the letter from the young general and opened it. He saw that there were only two words in the letter: "Retreat!"

Withdrawal?

"What does this mean?" Ding Li looked at the young player in confusion.

"I don't know!" The young general shook his head. He was just following the order, so why bother with this?

Ding Li frowned and looked at the direction of Zhengrong Valley, but he felt that the mountains were dangerous. Such places were the easiest to ambush the troops. After thinking about it, he decided to follow the order and immediately ordered the soldiers of the three armies to withdraw from the same route.

In Zhengrong Valley, the horse was originally explored and Ding Li had arrived at Zhengrong Valley. Taishi Ci had prepared an ambush and intended to eat Ding Li's troops in one fell swoop. Unexpectedly, the other party turned around at the entrance of the valley and retreated the same way. This made Taishi Ci a little puzzled. He didn't understand what was going on. While he was hesitating whether to pursue him, he saw a defeated general staggering from the rear.

Seeing this person, Taishi Ci was shocked and said sternly: "Ma Zhong, why are you here?"

"General Taishi, Ju County has been destroyed!" Lu Meng saw Taishi Ci, and knelt down on the ground with a loud bang and wailed.

"What!?" Taishi Ci's mind went blank when she heard this. Then he picked up Ma Zhong and said sternly: "How could Ju County be destroyed?"

This time, in order to avoid Guo Jia taking advantage of the situation to attack the city, Taishi Ci only brought two thousand troops to ambush him. There were 10,000 troops in Ju County. How could Ju County break it out with so many soldiers?

Ma Zhong said in a low voice: "General, a defeated army came from the south of the city last night. About two or three hundred people said that the general was ambushed, and the army was dispersed. The general was trapped in Zhengrong Valley and came to ask for help. They were wearing our military uniforms and said Wu. The last general did not doubt that he would lead the army out of the city to rescue him. Who knew that as soon as he left the city, a Ye bandit army broke out and defeated our army. The defeated troops took the opportunity to occupy the city gate and ordered the Ye bandit army to directly enter the city. Ju County was broken like this!"

"Absurd!" Taishici said disbelief: "I have a beacon tower on Jiwu Mountain, and there are also horses exploring the four directions day and night. How did the thief army suddenly kill to Ju County?"

The defense of Ju County was set up by Taishici himself. Not only did he set up a beacon tower on Jiwu Mountain, but there were also countless horses exploring along the way. Could Ye Zhao's troops fly?

Ma Zhong was speechless. He still couldn't figure it out. It was obvious that the detectives everywhere were all right. How did Ye Jun suddenly appear in Ju County? But the facts have happened, and even if he can't figure it out, it's useless.

"How many soldiers are there in the thieves?" Taishi Ci asked.

"It was midnight at that time. The night was too dark and I couldn't see clearly, but there were a lot of people and torches everywhere." Ma Zhong shook his head. At that time, he only knew that he was ambushed. As for how many ambushed soldiers were, the night was dark and the wind was high, how could he see clearly.

"The bandit army arrived quietly and failed to alarm the horses. The number of people must be small. Let me kill you back!" Taishi Ci didn't care about Ding Li now. Now it seems that Ding Li's troops were clearly tempting him out of the city. He immediately withdrew the ambush from Zhengrong Valley and rushed all the way to Ju County.

On the other side, Ding Li walked back with his troops for two hours, but was stopped by the young general again.

"What's the matter?" Ding Li looked at the young general and found this guy a little annoying.

"Return to General!" The young general looked at the sky and bowed to Ding Li, "The military advisor has another book!"

Ding Li: "..."

Squeezing the urge to hit someone, Ding Li said with a dark face: "Why didn't they come together before?"

"The military advisor has an order. After handing over the first letter to the general, he will hand over the letter to the general in two hours." The young general bowed and said.

Ding Li took the letter with a depressed look on his face and opened it, but saw the content of the letter, which asked him to lead his army to capture Yangdu!

Ding Li was a little confused, but the letter was marked with Guo Jia's seal, which means that this order must be implemented. Although Ding Li was resentful, the military order was as good as a mountain. Guo Jia was the marshal appointed by Ye Zhao. Ding Li had to listen to others and could only order the army to turn the head and march towards Ju County with a speechless look on his face. Yes, Guo Jia's order was to let him arrive at Ju County as quickly as possible.

Ding Li was a little nervous when he passed Zhengrong Valley. After all, it was too easy to hide ambushers in this place. But along the way, Ding Li, who had already made plans to retreat, did not even see the shadow of the enemy. However, the scouts responsible for exploring the surroundings found traces of a large number of troops in the mountains, and they had just left behind. In other words, not long ago, there were ambushes here, but now they are gone.
