Chapter 217 Merging State Situation (24)

"Brother Benchu, it is the best arrangement for each to guard a city, this will also save the two armies from staying together for a long time and create rifts.

As for the important task of staying in Liaocheng, I decided to let Miaocai do it, and Mancheng was there to assist me.

With the two of them in command, it is not a big problem to defend Liaocheng. General Rengui led the elite cavalry as the vanguard to attack Lu Bu in the south. "

After listening to Cao Cao's arrangement, Yuan Shao frowned slightly. It seemed that it was not enough to send only two generals. After all, he had sent three generals and two advisors.

"Meng De, you only let the two generals Miaocai and Manchester City station in Liaocheng, doesn't it seem a bit weak?"

"Brother Benchu, Miaocai and Manchester City are courageous, resourceful, calm and defensive. I am very relieved to hand over Liaocheng to them. I firmly believe that they will not be able to shoulder the heavy responsibility!"

"Thank you, my lord, for your trust. If there is something wrong with Liaocheng, I will be willing to come and see you!"

"It's the same for the last general. If you can't defend Liaocheng, I'm willing to come and see you!"

Seeing that Xia Houyuan and Li Dian had expressed their views, Yuan Shao couldn't say anything more. If he questioned the abilities of the two of them, it might cause discomfort.

"Since Miaocai and Manchester City have issued a military order, I can't say too much. Brother Mengde, how about letting General Rengui and General Long Live lead the troops south in two hours?"

After making the decision, Yuan Shao was very decisive, and Cao Cao didn't have much opinion. He ordered Xue Rengui to go to the camp outside the city to make preparations.

"My lord, since the death of General Yan Liang and the capture of generals Zhang He, Gao Lan, Han Meng, Jiang Qi, Zhu Ling, etc., our army has not many generals left who can stand alone.

The purpose of our army this time is only to defend the city. General Wen Chou is good at attacking. It is a bit overkill to stay here. Let him go south with the lord.

The sooner the war in the south ends, the less pressure it will be to defend Qingyuan City. Don't worry, my lord, with General Miaocai and General Manchester City as horns to each other, the general will have the confidence to defend Qingyuan City! "

Yuan Shao was also very tempted by Su Dingfang's proposal. After several battles, his generals were completely lost, and Wen Chou's value became more and more apparent.

"Ding Fang, are you sure you don't need General Wen Chou to stay here and guard Qingyuan City with you?"

"My lord, General Shu Mo speaks bluntly, even if General Wen Chou stays here, it will not achieve much effect.

The purpose of our army this time is to stick to it. Even if there are several times the enemy troops, the general will have the confidence to defend Qingyuan City for three months, and the general will swear to live and die with Qingyuan City! "

"Okay! As long as General Dingfang defends Qingyuan City, he will be the one who made the first contribution to this operation. After the war is over, he will definitely ask the imperial court for the general's credit!"

After the matter was finalized, the army quickly moved into action, with Xue Rengui and Shi Wansui as the vanguard, followed by Cao Cao and Yuan Shao who personally led the army.

The mobilization of the army in Qingyuan City was naturally discovered by the spies, but the army did not make any moves, but was always making preparations, accumulating strength and waiting for the reinforcements to arrive.

In addition to the arrows that filled the sky, the roaring fireballs and boulders brought even greater pressure, and exploded in Qingyuan City, making the fire in the city even more intense.

"The third round!"

"Fourth round!"

"."

Di Qing only stormed one city wall, and only sent a small number of soldiers to besiege the other three sides. After an hour, the attack came to an end temporarily, while the northern city wall was already in ruins, and a huge gap was blasted out.

"attack!"

With the sound of the attack drum, the first army of Youwu pawns that had been prepared rushed out, and the divine arm ballista was also pushed forward to suppress the enemy on the city wall.

Xin Qiji and Guan Hai took the lead, and soon came under the city wall. At this time, on the other side of the gap in the city wall, Su Dingfang was commanding the soldiers to resist tenaciously.

"Kill!"

Xin Qiji and Guan Hai crossed the city wall with shields in one hand and swords in the other. The first sergeants of Youwu soldiers behind them all fought bravely to be the first, and soon got into a melee with the army commanded by Su Dingfang.

The scuffle lasted for nearly two hours, Xin Qiji and Guan Hai were still unable to take half a step forward, and the corpses piled up at the entrance of the city wall almost blocked the entire entrance.

"General Miaocai, Su Dingfang can't even hold on for a day, and we can hold on for a few more days, why not withdraw to Dong'e temporarily.

We made a concession first, and Gongsun Yue's army will definitely understand what we mean, and concentrate on preparing for the battle under the city of Ye County. "

"Mancheng, before Gongsun Yue's army arrives, we will just abandon the city and leave. If the lord blames us in the future, won't we be convicted of fleeing without fighting?"

Xia Houyuan and Li Dian were discussing in the city, and after recovering from the news of Su Dingfang's defeat, they began to discuss how to deal with it.

"General Miaocai, we are able to save the [-] soldiers and retreat back to Dong'e. That is the greatest credit. Not only will the lord not blame us, but he will give us a credit.

Compared with Liaocheng, Qingyuan City is as tall and deep, and there are more than [-] soldiers defending the city. Su Dingfang can't hold on for a day, how long can we hold on?

If in the end not only Liaocheng could not be defended, but [-] brothers died here, then we would have committed the biggest crime! "

After listening to Li Dian's words, Xia Houyuan immediately made up his mind, and ordered his soldiers to get ready overnight, and evacuated Liaocheng early the next morning.

Liu Bei went back and forth and regained Liaocheng. Gongsun Yue also sent Xu Rong and Xu Huang to guard Leping City, echoing Liu Bei in Liaocheng.

"Ziwu, the important task of ensuring the supply of food and grass for our army and the safety of the army is now in your hands, Zijing and Yiqu, you must do your best to assist General Ziwu, and ensure that our army has a safe future.

Yuan Kai, you are familiar with Anping County, and you are good at calming the people. Our army is fighting on the front line. You must stabilize the rear, and you must not separate the hearts of our former soldiers, understand? "

"I will surely live up to my lord's expectations!"

Liu Gongsun Fan, Qianzhao, Jiang Qi, and Du Yu sat in the rear to transfer food and grass to stabilize the people's hearts. Gongsun Yue personally led the army to the city of Ye County, preparing to fight Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's returning army.

Cao Cao and Yuan Shao had just fought with Lu Bu, but before the winner was decided, the news of Su Dingfang's defeat came back, and the old nest was gone. Yuan Shao didn't have the heart to fight with Lu Bu, so he hurriedly led his troops back to Ye County night and night.

Lu Bu on the city of Xiapi saw Cao Cao and Yuan Shao rushing in and out, seeing Cao Cao and Yuan Shao rushing in and out, his not very smart head couldn't figure out what was going on inside.

"Jun Zhong, Wen Yuan, Cao Aman and Yuan Benchu ​​are making a fuss. I thought they were overwhelmed by soldiers, but Xiapi City could not hold it anymore, so they left in just two days."

Lu Bu walked on the line of life and death, and he couldn't figure it out, so he asked Gao Shun and Zhang Liao, who he relied on the most.

"My lord, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao left in a hurry. I'm afraid there is something wrong with Yuan Shao's headquarters, otherwise they would not have returned without success like this with so many troops.

My lord, now that the siege of Xiapi City has been lifted, the last general is willing to lead his troops to follow behind, firstly to find out the news, and secondly, to attack Cao Cao and Yuan Shao together with General Gongsun.

In addition, the lord should also send someone to inform Yuan Shu, let him seize the opportunity to send troops to the north, and avenge the defeat of the previous army.

Although there is a gap between our army and Yuan Shu, we must not miss this opportunity, and we are still forming an alliance. We know that our allies are in trouble and do not attack. Once Cao Cao and Yuan Shao recover, no one will form an alliance with them! "

After listening to Zhang Liao's words, Lu Bu snorted coldly. He still couldn't let go of his grievances with Yuan Shu.

"Wen Yuan, you lead [-] elite troops to the north to attack Cao Cao and Yuan Shao together with General Gongsun, but there is no need to notify Yuan Shu, I wish they would betray their relatives and have no one to help them!

This time when Cao Cao and Yuan Shao came to attack Xiapi, it is impossible for Yuan Shu not to know about it, and he stood still, how could I put a cold face on his cold ass! "

Seeing that Lu Bu was determined, Zhang Liao realized that it would be useless to persuade Cao Cao and Yuan Shao to withdraw suddenly.
"General Flying Tiger, it seems that if you want to defeat Su Dingfang, you have to trouble yourself to bring the Peerless Battalion, and you must fight with all your strength to win!"

"Hanchen, just take care, Su Dingfang will definitely lose!"

Li Cunxiao took the lead, Dian Wei and Yang Zaixing guarded the sides, and joined the fortified battle with [-] soldiers from the Wushuang Battalion as a fresh force.

"Break it!"

Li Cunxiao directly pushed the mountain of corpses to the ground, and he plunged into the enemy's formation, and the surrounding area suddenly became a vacuum.

Yang Zaixing and Dian Wei followed closely behind. With the three of them there, they quickly gained a foothold. After the arrival of the soldiers from the Wushuang Battalion, the failure of Su Ding's army was a foregone conclusion.

"General Su, withdraw! It's not a crime of war this time, but the opponent's weapons are too sharp, and no one can defend the city wall. Why don't we withdraw our troops for now and go to Guantao City to defend!"

"General Su, what Mr. Yuan Hao said is very true. We can't stop it. We should withdraw to Guantao City for the time being and use the strong city to resist the enemy!"

Both Tian Feng and Feng Ji agreed to retreat immediately. Su Dingfang looked at Qingyuan City, and at the unstoppable Li Cunxiao who took the lead, he gritted his teeth and withdrew from Qingyuan City with his own soldiers.

"Withdraw!"

Su Dingfang, Tian Feng, Feng Ji and Gao Gan led the personal guard battalion and headed towards Guantao City quickly. Seeing that the commander had fled, the other soldiers lost their last trace of resistance and fled.

And some people in the city also fled around with the rebel army, heading towards Guantao City.

Qingyuan City was pacified soon. Gongsun Yue, Di Qing, Du Yu and Xi Zhicai came to the city. Looking at the city destroyed by boulders and fire pots, and the houses were still burning everywhere, they couldn't help frowning slightly.

"Feihu, Zaixing, Yingxiang, Zilong, You'an, Ziwu, you immediately take the tiger and leopard cavalry and the first and third armies of the Huben Army, and follow closely behind the rebellious army. Be sure to keep an appropriate distance. The three counties of Yangping, Guangping and Weijun will be decided by war!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Li Cunxiao and others left with nearly [-] cavalry, followed closely behind the rebel army all the way, constantly expanding the panic of the rebel army, and soon came under Guantao City.

Su Dingfang, Tian Feng, Feng Ji and Gao Gan had just arrived in Guantao City, while Li Cunxiao and others had already arrived outside the city, and there were few soldiers in the city. Su Dingfang knew that there was no hope of holding on, so he had to abandon Guantao City and continue to flee south.

Su Dingfang and others fled in front, and Li Cunxiao and others chased after them. They went through Yuancheng, Weixian, Lintong, and arrived at the city of Yexian.

"Quickly go and tell Mr. Gong and let me enter the city quickly. If it's a few minutes later, the rebel army will arrive at the city soon!"

The defenders on the city saw Su Dingfang's banner and saw less than a thousand panicked soldiers, so they didn't dare to delay, so they rushed to report to Jushou.

"Lord Chang Shi, something is wrong! General Su and the others fled outside the city with less than a thousand defeated soldiers. Let us quickly let them enter the city. It seems that there are still pursuers behind."

"What?! How did General Su lose so quickly, and he was defeated all the way from Qingyuan City to this place without even an effective resistance? The enemy army is so sharp?
General Chunyu, hurry up and tell General Su to evacuate under the city wall temporarily. At this time, we don't know when the pursuers will arrive, so we must not open the city wall! "

"Yes, Lord Changshi!"

After Chunyuqiong left quickly, Jushou also quickly led people to the city wall, not letting the defeated army enter the city, also for the purpose of stabilizing the army in the city. The Weijun city is high and deep, and there are tens of thousands of soldiers, so they can hold on temporarily and wait for reinforcements.

"General Su, I don't know when the pursuers will arrive. It is not appropriate to let you enter the city at this time. You should retreat to the barracks outside the city first, and organize soldiers and horses to restrain you.

Now there are tens of thousands of soldiers in the city, and you are restraining them outside the city. It is absolutely impossible for the enemy to capture Ye County. As long as you hold on until the lord returns to help, everything will turn around! "

After listening to Chun Yuqiong's words, Su Dingfang also felt that this was feasible, and saw the smoke and dust behind him faintly, so he hurriedly led the troops to leave.

Five days later, Ta Dun led the Third Army of the Huben Army to arrive first, and five days later, the Fourth Army of the Huben Army and the Sixth Army of the Huben Army led by Gongsun Fan and Xu Rong also arrived.

"General Tadun, Ziwu, and Da Mao, you have worked hard all the way, and the preparations for the siege have already been completed. You rest for a while, and the first battle of attacking Qingyuan City will be handed over to the first army of Youwu soldiers and the first army of Youwu soldiers." three armies.

After you have rested for three days, you will take over from the Youwu army's first and third armies to attack the city. Su Dingfang thought that blocking the four gates of Qingyuan City would stop our army's footsteps, which is ridiculous.

In the face of absolute strength, all schemes are jokes, let him take a good look at our achievements over the past two years.

Our army will bombard Qingyuan City with crossbows and boulders, crush them openly, and completely cut off the enemy's determination to resist!
Hanchen, you are still in command this time. The purpose of our army is not only to capture Qingyuan City, but to completely defeat the enemy's fighting spirit. As long as the enemy loses their fighting spirit, then they will attack Yangping County, Wei County and Guangping County It will be a lot easier, and it is not impossible to be overwhelming! "

After determining the general direction, Gongsun Yue handed over the tactical command of the battle to Di Qing, and did not dictate at will. Professional matters should be left to professional people.

"My lord, don't worry, the final general will not only capture Qingyuan City, but also defeat Su Dingfang's confidence, let him recognize the real gap with our army, and crush him in all directions!"

After receiving the order, Di Qing began to make arrangements. Guan Hai and Xin Qiji launched the first wave of attacks, followed by Xu Huang and Han Meng.

However, before launching the attack on the city, Di Qing first dispatched a powerful bow and crossbow force. Hundreds of eight-ox crossbows and hundreds of return cannons had already been transported to Qingyuan City.

"General Su, why does the enemy have so many ballistas and catapults? If these ballistas and catapults attack at the same time, even if Qingyuan City is high and deep, it will not be able to withstand such fierce suppression.

What's more, the enemy destroyed more than half of the city wall before retreating. Although our army has re-fortified, it is still far from the original. Can we really hold Qingyuan City for three months? "
