Killing system of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 217

It was January when Zhang Yi arrived in Yiyang.Runan at this time is actually not very cold, only a few degrees below zero. After all, it is almost spring, and the river is about to open up.

At this time, Zhang Yi must be considered a good time for Zhang Yi to use troops. The only thing to guard against is the animal carcasses in the wild in spring, because this may cause plague.

Fortunately, Zhang Yi's army has advanced methods of preventing and controlling the plague, so Zhang Yi can send troops with complete peace of mind.

If Yiyang wants to attack Jiangxia, he needs to attack westward.You read that right, attacking westward!To the west of Yiyang is Jiangxia's Xiyang, Zhiguo, and Yan County, and to the west is Pingchun.

But why does Jiangxia County have to attack west because most of them are in the south of Yiyang?In fact, as mentioned earlier, Yiyang has a road leading to Jiangxia, but this road is a mountain road.

There is a mountain range in the middle of Jiangxia County. This mountain range is the famous red mountain range - Dabie Mountain!

The Dabie Mountains divide Jiangxia County into two. There are four counties in the north and ten counties in the south. Xiling, the county seat, is in the south.

Therefore, if the North Road wants to attack Xiling, there are two ways to go. One is to cross the Dabie Mountains and find a mountain path from Xiyang to directly attack Xiling.However, this road takes a long time, and the mountain road is difficult. You can use it as a surprise soldier, but not as a regular soldier.

The second route is to bypass the Dabie Mountains, attack Fuyang from the west of Pingchun, then go south to Xiangxiang and Zhangling, then east to Suixian, bypass the eastern part of Lulin Mountain, and go south to Nanxinshi.

Nanxin City is a county name, not a modern place name.Nanxin City is located in the west of Jiangxia, southeast of Lulin Mountain.

Of course, if you have a boat, you can go directly to Anlu from the water.Both Suixian and Anlu are near the water, so as long as there are enough boats, they can still transport large troops there.

However, this road is too long, and most of the supply line will be exposed to the attack of Cao Jun.Moreover, if we go back to Jiangxia, it is better to attack directly and continue westward, attack Huyang, Xinye, Chaoyang, and then go south to Xiangyang, which is closer than attacking Anlu.

Therefore, the offensive on the northern front can only focus on attacking the four counties of Jiangxia, and then send a partial division to attack Xiling, and the large force will move westward, preparing to attack Nanyang County.

However, to attack the northern part of Jiangxia County, Zhang Yi still needs to take down one more place, and that is Xinxi County.Xinxi County and Anyang County in Runan both threatened Zhang Yi to attack Pingchun.Therefore, if Zhang Yi wants to attack Pingchun, he must take these two counties.

Zhang Yi met Sun Qian, Mi Zhu, and Mi Fang brothers who were left here by him in Yiyang.These three people have surrendered to Zhang Yi now, Sun Qian doesn't care, Liu Bei is dead, Zhang Yi respects him more, so he goes to Zhang Yi.

The Mi brothers crushed Dabao on Liu Bei. When Liu Bei died, everything they had was wiped out.The Mi brothers also chose to surrender in order to save their lives.

Zhang Yi was not worried about them at all, Mi Zhu was a gentleman, Mi Fang was a coward, neither of these two brothers were the kind of people who schemed behind their backs.Mi Fang betrayed Guan Yu, but chose to surrender out of fear of death.

"Mi Zhu, force: 73, strategy: 62, strategy: 72, internal affairs: 90, education: 87, diplomacy: 85. Characteristics: management."

"Mi Fang, armed force: 68, war strategy: 67, strategy: 52, internal affairs: 63, education: 46, diplomacy: 47. Characteristics: foreign relatives."

Of the three, Zhang Yi only planned to reuse two, and both Sun Qian and Mi Zhu could be used.But Mi Fang and Zhang Yi are not going to use it anymore, but will keep him by his side temporarily to run errands.Although this kid is not very capable, it is still possible to pass on a word, as long as his loyalty can be guaranteed.

Zhang Yi sent Su Lie to attack Xinxi County, where only he could hold Xinxi and protect his flank.This shows that Zhang Yi attaches great importance to Su Lie, specially gave him 5000 people, and asked him to attack Anyang after he took Xinxi.

Zhang Yi himself led the troops to attack Xiyang, and asked Master Shang and his disciples to attack the state of Zhi and Yan County, and further attacked Pingchun to spy on Nanyang County.

There are also 5000 masters and apprentices, and Zhang Yi takes the rest of the army by himself.

After Su Lie got the order, he also felt very excited.He is just a captain now, and he was very happy to have the opportunity to lead two thousand soldiers and horses.Now that Zhang Yi gave him [-] troops, Su Lie can be said to be very happy, which shows that the lord is optimistic about him.

After Su Lie went north to Xinxi, he found that Xinxi's defense was very strict.Su Lie should have known the news that Zhang Yijun had captured Gushi and other places, so Su Lie felt a little troubled.

Just a little bit, because the city of Xinxi is not big, and there are only two to three hundred defenders.No matter how strict the defense is, he will not be Su Lie's opponent. He has 300 people.

Su Lie directly sent troops to besiege the city, and then attacked from all directions.Thousands of people attacked, two or three hundred people couldn't defend at all, and Su Lie killed them into the city in less than half a day.

After laying down the news, Su Lie didn't rush to Anyang, but looked at the map to study.In the future, the grain and grass in Xinxi Anyang will definitely need to be transported from the direction of Gushi, and the grain road will definitely go along the Huai River.

But there is a long way to go from Qisi to Xinxi. There is a place that threatens this food road, and may even threaten Zhang Yi's food and grass important place-Yiyang.

This place is called Baoxin, and the four counties of Baoxin, Qisi, Yiyang and Xinxi form a square.Qi Si and Xin Xin are diagonally opposite, and Bao Xin and Yi Yang are diagonally opposite.If troops are dispatched from Baoxin, it is absolutely possible to attack the three counties of Qisi, Yiyang and Xinxi.

Su Lie felt that this place must be taken down, otherwise it might become a place for Cao Cao to counterattack.As long as you get the letter of commendation, you can make up for the previous line of defense.

After Su Lie thought about it, he immediately sent Zhang Yi a letter to the military newspaper and reported the matter.

After Zhang Yi saw the military newspaper, he also felt that his previous thoughts were a bit naive.He found his subordinates and asked: "What Su Lie said is because we didn't think carefully. I have already agreed to Su Lie's action to attack Baoxin. It's just that I lack one person to attack Anyang now. I don't know if anyone can help me solve the problem?"

Li Shanchang said at this time: "Anyang should focus on defense and not attack, so there is no need for strong generals, and the main force should be commanding troops. Lu Boyan can do it."

Zhang Yi was a little worried. Lu Xun hadn't fully grown up yet.But Zhang Yi thought about it again, how could the general come out of the greenhouse?He agreed, and gave Lu Xun two thousand soldiers and horses to attack Anyang County, so that Master Shang and his disciples could attack Pingchun's flank.

Zhang Yi left Li Shanchang in Xiyang County to take care of Yiyang, Biguo, Xiyang and other places, and ensure his own food routes.

And Zhang Yi himself took Wei Wentong, Qin Qiong, Xia Luqi and Pang Tong with [-] soldiers and went deep into the Dabie Mountains.
