Chapter 255 Stalemate Ends Short Peace

Chapter 255 Stalemate Ends Short Peace

After everything was prepared, Jushou thought that Jia Xu would not be able to escape his eyes no matter what, so Jushou stopped observing the movement under the city and left all the affairs in the city to Qu Yi to do. He stayed at home safely every day, occasionally Care about war.

Empiricism makes Jushou blind and arrogant. It cannot be said that he is not smart, but he is too smart. He knows the advantages and disadvantages of both the enemy and the enemy. He soon relaxed.

Yue Fei's army led a large group of people along the official roads all the way, and pedestrians ignored them on the roads, and just walked along the official roads. Although they started late, they got on much faster.

The [-] army is not small, and there was a lot of movement during the march. Ju Shou soon learned the news. After a little thought, he felt that he had already guessed what Zhang Liang wanted to do, and he knew better in his heart, and he did not care about the enemies outside the city. No matter how many temptations there are, An Ran defends the city and no longer takes any action, but secretly sighs in his heart that Zhang Liang is unwise, he dared to bypass Zhengyang, drive straight into the hinterland, and seek his own death.

Not long after, the people near Yiyang suddenly discovered that the originally raging river had slowed down.

No one knows that the upper reaches of the river have been blocked, and under the leadership of Yue Fei, a dam has been built. As time goes by, Zhang Liang's plan is proceeding in an orderly manner.

The first flood season came around April, and under the banner of Zhang Liang, Yue Fei ordered people to build dikes, and also ordered people to strengthen patrols, transfer the people from low-lying areas to high-lying areas, and gather grain to transport them together.

Soon the news spread to Yiyang City. The general in the city knew that something was going to happen, so he sent troops several times. Because the number of soldiers was not the opponent, the soldiers were lost many times and the generals were lost. Since then, they have not defended the city.

Not only did Yiyang know the news, but even Zhengyang, who was a little farther away, was shocked not long after hearing the news.

Flooding Yiyang, I have to say that Ye Xiao's subordinate Zhang Liang is also an extremely ruthless person.

Although Jia Xu pointed out that there would be no distinction between the enemy and the enemy in the fire at the head of Zhengyang City, it only hurt the soldiers and did not hurt the people, and Zhang Liang's strategy was simply an out-of-the-box plan.

The confrontation between the two armies, as far as the people are concerned, apart from the disasters caused by the chaos, there will be few other disasters. Fire and water are incompatible. Once the policy of flooding is implemented, the people of the world will face a catastrophe. , after Jushou learned about it, he was stunned for a while resentfully.

Compared with Zhengyang, which is hundreds of miles away, Yiyang is in chaos. The people outside the city are fleeing one after another. Watching the river getting higher and higher all day long, the soldiers in the city can't bear it anymore, and deserters begin to appear and flee in all directions. .

"All the people of Yiyang, if they listen to his arrangement, they can manage everyone's rations, and all expenses will be provided by our army in Yuzhou."

Just when everyone was panicked and uneasy, Yue Fei ordered the general to issue an order. The location was so high that countless people gathered in a short while. The grain they brought from Yiyang was also gathered by Yue Fei's order, and the food began to be released on the hour every day. .

After more than a month, without interruption from the beginning, the reputation of Ye Xiao's army gradually spread, but as the chief culprit of flooding Yiyang, it was gradually ignored by people.

"Boom!"

With a loud noise in the distance, the dam blocking the river was blasted away, and the huge waves rolled down from the sky. Wherever they passed, the fields turned into swamps.

Yiyang's terrain is slightly higher. Except for the west city facing the waves of the river, which collapsed a lot, other places were also poured into the river. For a while, the road near Yiyang became extremely muddy.

It can be seen from this that the damage caused by the flooding is great and the power is great, but fortunately no casualties were caused, but this is also a blessing in misfortune.

After Yiyang was flooded, Pingchun's reinforcements stayed in Pingchun completely, and the road was muddy, making it impossible for the army to pass.

Soon, a letter of request for help quickly spread to Xinyang. As Zhang Liang expected, after Liu Qi received the letter of request for help, he hurriedly led fifty thousand new recruits, and together with twenty thousand soldiers from Jingzhou, passed through Pingchun and looked towards Zhengzhou. Positive.

Half a month passed, and the accumulated water in the depression gradually receded. As time went by, within a few days, the originally extremely wet ground dried up, and there was no more mud.

He moved the camp to Yiyang City, and Yue Fei gathered those people to take refuge in the city. Yue Fei put on a defensive posture and waited for Liu Qi's army.

Hearing this news, Liu Qi couldn't sit still any longer. Except for the guards who had to stay, he brought together other soldiers, more than [-] people.

Walking forward with confidence, no one noticed that there were more than 3 troops waiting in front of this road. At a critical moment, a single blow was fatal, and this road was Liu Qi's army.

In the valley to the west of Pingchun City, under a perfect ambush, Liu Qi's army killed more than 1 people in battle, more than 2 people died in battle, more than 3 people died in battle, and more than 6 people surrendered. .

After Liu Qi was defeated, Zhang Liang did not stop there. No one in Xinyang County could resist Zhang Liang's army except Liu Qi.

At the beginning of May, under the auspices of poverty, Liu Qi was tied up by his subordinates, and Zhang Liang was demoted, and Zhang Liang sent someone to take over Xinyang temporarily. So far, the land of Jiangxia has been controlled by Ye Xiao, and Zhang Liang's name, With a series of three strategies, he became famous all over the world.

After summer, the sun is scorching hot. If the dead soldiers are left untreated for a long time, the stench will be monstrous, which may lead to frequent plagues.

Ye Xiao's injury was better, and many doctors helped to minimize the impact, while the other princes suffered a lot of losses, so helplessly, all the princes withdrew their troops one after another.

The confrontation in Jizhou has become a draw. Yuan Shao is afraid of being attacked by Ye Xiao and Gongsun Xu from behind, so he has no choice but to send someone to negotiate with Gongsun Xu to stop the war.

Seeing the peace talks between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan, Cao Cao and Ma Teng also quickly retreated to the mountains. Yuan Shu also retreated angrily to Yangzhou to develop his own power after the fruitless attack on Yingchuan.

At this time, Liu Qi was arrested, and Liu Bei was temporarily acting as agent for all affairs in Jingzhou, and the land of Jiangxia also fell into Ye Xiao's hands. As for whether Liu Bei would exchange Jiangxia for Liu Qi, that was Liu Bei's own business.

As the princes from all walks of life stopped fighting, even the people of Shanyue, who had always been very active, gradually stagnated, staying in the mountains and forests and no longer sent troops. As the princes from all walks of life began to rest, the world fell into a long-lost "peace" .

In the past two months, there have been many wars, and Ye Xiao has not returned home for a long time, and he misses his wife and daughter very much.

At this time, Ye Xiao was sitting on the carriage, looking at Liu Bowen and Zhang Liang beside him and said with a smile.

"Zifang, this time you flooded Liu Qi and shocked the world!"

"The lord has won the prize!"

Just when Zhang Liang finished speaking, the carriage stopped suddenly, and a strong man rushed out from both sides of the road and shouted.

"stop!"
