The Rise of the Song People of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 271 Yuan Hao Sends Troops
The news Cao Cao received was naturally caused by Lu Heng, but don't get me wrong that it wasn't Jin Yiwei who replaced the scout, but Lu Heng did a lot of tricks.

When Lu Heng knew that Cao Cao was besieging Zhang Xiu, Lu Heng guessed that this might be Jia Xu's glorious battle.

Lu Heng had already forgotten why Cao Cao suddenly retreated in the original time and space, but he didn't want Zhang Xiu to be wiped out so easily by Cao Cao.

Lu Heng originally wanted Yang Yanzhao to pull the army back to Moling, but immediately changed his mind. First, he asked Zhao Defang to go on an envoy. Hu Yanzan approached Liao County and Qiao Rui formed horns.

At the same time, Yang Yanzhao was asked to collect the surrendered troops, eliminate the young and old, and keep his elites to intensify training in Lujiang. In the first battle of Lujiang, Liu Xun's army was destroyed by nearly [-] troops (Liu Xun's total troops were about [-], and he suffered a lot in the attack on Shangliao. He was attacked by Yang Yanzhao and fought again. Zhang Duo and Xu Qian each had ten thousand troops, and if they gathered some surrender troops, they would have fifty thousand troops.

Of course, the strength of these [-] people is about the same as that of the Yellow Turban Army, and their equipment is about zero. They range from old men in their sixties to children as young as ten years old, with a huge age range.

In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, such armies were everywhere, even for powerful princes like Yuan Shao, it was inevitable. There were not many princes who took the elite route.

In addition, Lu Heng also ordered the Moling garrison to have the illusion of frequent mobilization, and even asked Zhao Yun to pull many troops into Jiujiang for training, in order to give Cao Cao the feeling that someone from Lu was determined to send troops.

This is a conspiracy. Even if Cao Cao knew that Lu Heng was bluffing, he would not dare to bet that if Lu Heng really mobilized all his troops to attack Yuzhou, Xuzhou and other places, he would have to quickly return reinforcements.

What's more, Zhang Xiu couldn't chew it no matter how hard he was. He couldn't defeat it despite repeated attacks. Cao Cao once again regretted sleeping with a woman. If Zhang Xiu's aunt was not touched, Cao Ang would not die. Zhang Xiu would not die. Xiudu surrendered and gave away such a dangerous place as Nanyang in vain.

But now Cao Cao decided to withdraw after discussing with the army counselor Xun You and others.

Lu Heng made frequent moves and had to be prepared. The most important thing was the cavalry of Hu Yanzan's Chixin Battalion, which made Cao Cao very afraid.

All the way from Lujiang County through Runan to Xuchang is a plain, and the cavalry can come and go like the wind, and hit Huanglong unimpeded!

Cao Cao decided to retreat, attracting Zhang Xiu's pursuit and ambushing him for a while, repelling Zhang Xiu's pursuit, but causing Zhang Xiu's few troops to lose some more, but Cao Cao did not expect that Zhang Xiu would dare to pursue again, and successfully defeated The main force of the retreat.

This time, Cao Cao finally knew that Zhang Xiu’s difficulty was not Zhang Xiuqiang, but that Zhang Xiu had experts around him, such as Guo Jia and Xun You, so let the spies check it out. Jia Xu caused Cao Cao’s attention. Paying attention to this is something for later.

This year, Cao Cao sent troops to destroy Lu Bu and beat Zhang Xiu again. Lu Heng also took Jiaozhou and Lujiang County, which made Yuan Shu even more frightened.

Sun Ce fixed his eyes on the Wuxi Man, while Yuan Shao finally demolished Gongsun Zan's fortifications seven or eight times, leaving only one or two to see the dawn of victory.

Several major princes in the Central Plains were digesting their results, and their eyes were on Xiliang. Li Jiqian, Ma Teng, and Han Sui had frequent frictions and battles. Li Yuanhao thought he had found the key to take Liangzhou, so he hurried to see Li Jiqian.

"Father, the last time our army failed in a strategic goal was because we fought against Ma Teng and Han Sui at the same time, and let them rescue each other."

"In addition, Ma Teng has Ma Chao, and Han Sui has Yan Xing, two fierce generals, which makes the sons lose their spirit. Instead of fighting Ma Teng and Han Sui at the same time, it is better to clench your fists, defeat one with all your strength, and then eat away at the other. If it is cool, it will all return to the summer soil.”

"As for Ma Chao and Yan Xing, I recalled my righteous brother Zan Tianwang. My righteous brother worshiped an immortal teacher in the secret sect of Tianshan Mountain. He practiced martial arts very well and had the courage that is unworthy of all. Brothers are not opponents in both battles, and it is no problem to have Zan Tianwang contain Ma Chao and Yan Xing!"

Li Jiqian heard that Li Yuanhao's analysis was reasonable, Liangzhou has been unable to open the situation, if not for Li Yuanhao's remonstrance, he would have wanted to attack the Southern Huns first, first go north and then south to strengthen their strength, and then go south again.

But Li Yuanhao's remonstrance made Li Jiqian think of another possibility, but he was hesitant to focus on Ma Teng or Han Sui.

At this moment, the military adviser Zhang Pu said: "My lord, what Mr. Yuan Hao said is true, Han Sui is cunning, Ma Teng is brave, our army is attacking Ma Teng with all our strength."

"Because of the attack on Han Sui, Ma Teng's loyalty will save him, and he will attack Han Sui with all his strength. This man must be cunning and think about whether there is an opportunity to take advantage of and hesitate to send troops. This is an opportunity that our army can take advantage of."

Li Yuanhao was surprised that Zhang Pu was a Han man. Although Zhang Pu was Li Jiqian's mastermind and won Li Jiqian's trust, Li Yuanhao did not trust the Han people at all. He believed that these Han people who relied on his father were just for glory and wealth and flattery, and would not serve their party members. Make every effort to plan.

But I didn't expect Zhang Pu to coincide with my opinion!

Just when Li Yuanhao was surprised, Zhang Pu continued to speak out.

"We must attack Ma Teng with all our strength, but we must guard against Han Sui in the west. It is said that he has close contacts with Tubo."

"Pan Luozhi was originally a descendant of the Da Yue clan who was defeated by the Huns. He mixed with the Western Qiang people for generations. Unexpectedly, Pan Luozhi rose and established Tubo. His eldest son, Suduodu, is nothing to worry about, but his second son, Ji Siluo Brave and brave, he contributed to the rise of the Hummer, and even the general Qing Yi knotted the ghost badge as his minion, so we must guard against it!"

"Father, it's nothing to worry about. After Ma Teng and Han Sui are wiped out, the boy brought his own army to deal with Pan Luozhi and Gosiluo. Besides, the Pan Luozhi clan is not monolithic. Li Lizun and Wen Buqi are under his command. The leader is very ambitious and always wants to win the position of Zanpu."

"Well, what my son Yuan Hao said is right, let Zhang Yuan contact Li Lizun and Wen Buqi, only if Tubo gets into a mess, we will have a chance!"

"As for the matter of sending troops to Ma Teng, Yuan Hao, you are fully responsible, and you can send troops and order the generals yourself."

"promise!"

If Lu Heng knew this, he would laugh. The system is really fair, and Xixia is not without opponents!This is not Tubo out!
Although Tubo in the Song Dynasty was far less powerful than Tubo in the Tang Dynasty, it was still a force that should not be underestimated in the early days, especially in the era of Jisiluo, who beat Li Yuanhao hard.

This is not Li Jiqian's nemesis, Pan Luozhi actually appeared. In history, Li Jiqian died in the hands of Pan Luozhi, and he also brought out a fellow who could beat Li Yuanhao fat. Now Xixia has a strong man in the west The enemy can greatly control the development of Xixia.

why would you say so?

Zongsiluo is a pro-Han character. Although it is unknown how Zongsiluo behaved in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, Xiliang, where Ma Teng, Han Sui, and Li Jiqian were originally fighting for hegemony, would be even more exciting when the appearance of Zongsiluo appeared.
