Although Sun Jian's faction lacked top-notch generals, generals like Zhou Tai, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang each had their own strengths. It would be quite difficult to deal with a group of such famous generals.

Sun Jian held the ancient ingot knife in his hand, and with the force blessing provided by the ancient ingot knife, Sun Jian was like a god of war, and chopped down a group of Qi's army one after another.

Sun Jian was as ferocious as a tiger, and defended Lujiang County to the death, refusing to budge an inch.

The Wu army continued to reinforce, Zhu Zhi, Lu Fan, Sun Jing, Sun He and other generals successively recruited troops to support Sun Jian, but Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou's forces were at a disadvantage.

Yuan Shu's troops were divided into two groups, one of which was to attack Lujiang, and the other to attack Xiaopei, which was equivalent to fighting on two fronts, dealing with the two princes Cao Cao and Sun Jian at the same time.

Even if Yuan Shu has a strong army and a strong horse, it is impossible to deal with Cao Cao and Sun Jian at the same time.

"The goal has changed from conquering Lujiang County to containing Sun Jian's troops."

Qi Jiguang saw that Sun Jian's reinforcements were coming in a steady stream, and he knew that it was impossible to take Lujiang County, which had increased in strength, by relying on two famous generals, Yu Dayou and Yuan Shu, with a group of third- and fourth-rate generals.

However, whether to capture Lujiang County will not benefit Qin Kai's forces much, but will directly benefit Yuan Shu's forces.

Qi Jiguang's goal was to contain Sun Jian's troops and prevent Sun Jian from having extra troops to support Sun Ce who was going north.

Otherwise, with Sun Jian's military strength, if Sun Jian sent millions of troops northward, and Sun Jian, Zhou Tai, Huang Gai, Cheng Pu, Han Dang and other generals joined the Battle of Jieqiao, then Qin Kai in the Battle of Jieqiao would be in danger.

Although Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou's Yuan Shujun was repelled by Sun Jian for a time, they still lingered around the city and kept Sun Jian's main force at bay.

In Xiaopei City, Gao Shun and Chen Dao helped Yuan Shu capture the city occupied by the Cao army. Yuan Shu was overjoyed and gave Gao Shun and Chen Dao a lot of rewards.

However, Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan commanded a large number of Cao troops to counterattack Xiaopei, but Yuan Shujun became the defensive side instead, and the two sides fell into a tragic offensive and defensive battle again.

"Don't underestimate me, Yuan Gonglu! Whoever kills the generals of Cao Jun will be rewarded a lot!"

"Kill!

! ”

Yuan Shu issued a reward order, and Yuan Shu's army screamed like chicken blood.

As one of the vassals, Yuan Shu also has an exclusive field of generals, the effect is that the incentive effect brought by the reward is doubled!

In other words, Yuan Shu is rich and powerful!

The more money you give, the harder Yuan Shujun's soldiers will work!

The stimulated soldiers of Yuan Shu's army defended desperately, and they just blocked the offensive of Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan's Cao army.

Yuan Shujun has a city wall to defend and occupies a favorable location.

Gao Shun led the camp, and Chen Dao led the white scorpion soldiers, and repeatedly repelled the Cao army who had invaded the city.

In terms of force, Xiahou Dun surpassed Gao Shun, but he led troops to fight and was beaten by Gao Shun. Gao Shun led the camp and repelled Xiahou Dun three times in a row. Xiahou Dun was even injured in the tragic battle.

Ji Ling, Liu Xun and other generals of Yuan Shu's forces are not just decorations.

Ji Ling, a diamond-level general, combined with several diamond-level and gold-level generals, can completely block Xia Houyuan, a general of the Cao army.

The most commonly used by Yuan Shu forces is crowd tactics.

Cao Jun had to retreat temporarily because of the injury of general Xiahou Dun.

"Hmph, this is the fate of Yuan Gonglu who underestimated me."

Yuan Shu actually seized the city of Xiaopei from Cao Cao's forces, and he was immediately full of vigor and ambition.

It's not that he, Yuan Shu, is incompetent, it's just that he is not capable!

If he has a group of generals under Qin Kai, then Yuan Shu can still become a first-class prince in the world!

"Come here, reward the three armies, especially Gao Shun and Chen Dao!"

"Three thousand gold rewards, thirty beauties!"

With a wave of his hand, Yuan Shu continued to use gold and beautiful women to win over Gao Shun and Chen Dao.

However, if Yuan Shu could see the loyalty of the two, he would find that the loyalty of Gao Shun and Chen Dao hadn't dropped at all.

Gao Shun and Chen Dao are loyal to Qin Kai. No matter how Yuan Shu wins them over, it will be a waste of effort. These gold and beauties may eventually fall into Qin Kai's hands.

"Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan failed. I'm afraid Cao Cao will suddenly turn his back on his carbine and take back Xiaopei himself. We must guard against it."

Gao Shun's commander value is extremely high, and he speculates on Cao Cao's next move.

With Cao Cao's personality that he likes to lead troops to attack in person, once his subordinates lose, they are likely to go into battle in person.

"If Cao Mengde brings troops here in person, I'd like to see whether he, Cao Mengde, or I, Yuan Gonglu, are the best!"

After Yuan Shu took down Xiaopei, he was already complacent and didn't take Cao Cao seriously.

"..."

Gao Shun was helpless, sure enough, even the same general, under the command of different lords, had very different effects.

2 Chapter Fifty

At Jieqiao, two armies camped and confronted each other on the east and west banks. Tens of thousands of troops gathered, swords drawn.

Qin Kai's Youzhou Army broke through Bohai County and Pingyuan County, attacked Yecheng westward, and confronted Jizhou Army at Jieqiao.

Zhang Ying, Jiao Touch, Zhang Nan and other surrendered generals commanded [-] surrendered soldiers, joined the Youzhou Army, and participated in the Battle of Jieqiao.

Because Zhuojun, Bohai County, Pingyuan County and other places fell, the loyalty of civil servants and generals of Yuan Shao's forces declined, and people were panicked.

The battle of the boundary bridge is very important.

If Yuan Jun is defeated again, the loyalty of the civil servants and generals of Yuan Shao's forces is estimated to collapse.

For Yuan Shao, this time was a battle of life and death.

Yuan Shao concentrated a large number of troops at Jieqiao.

Qin Kai did not attack directly, but waited for Zhang Yan's Black Mountain Army to put pressure on Yuan Shao from the rear.

Under the leadership of Zhang Yan, the black mountain army came out from the deep mountains and old forests, attacked the city all the way, and attacked Yecheng from the west.

Qin Kai's Youzhou Army, Zhang Yan's Heishan Army, one east and one west.

"Finally we can defeat Yuan Shao, take advantage of Yuan Shao's absence and take Yecheng!"

The Black Mountain Army appeared to the west of Yecheng. Zhang Yan raised his sword high and urged groups of Black Mountain Army to attack the city. These Black Mountain Army were like moths flying to the flame, and rushed forward to attack Yecheng.

The Black Mountain Army had a large number of people, like a wave, constantly beating the city wall, and then ants attached to the city, and fought with the defenders on the narrow city wall. The corpses piled up under the city wall like a mountain, and blood flowed like a river.

"Shoot the arrows! Be sure to defend Yecheng, trust the lord, the lord will win!"

Shenpei stayed in Yecheng, commanded archers, crossbowmen, bed crossbows and other arms, and shot Zhang Yan's Black Mountain army.

When defending the city, the bonus to the defenders is extremely high, and the city he defends is difficult to be captured.

Arrows rained down from Yecheng, and many generals of the Black Mountain Army were shot and injured, and some generals were nailed to the ground by giant crossbow arrows shot from the bed crossbow.

Zhang Yan's heart was pierced when he saw the Black Mountain Army, which was constantly dying and shrinking.

Although the Montenegrin Army has a large number of people, most of them are low-level troops positioned as cannon fodder, but with so many casualties at one time, even Zhang Yan can hardly continue to bear such a large loss.

Furthermore, Yecheng does not see the possibility of being captured by the Black Mountain Army.

Yuan Shao ordered Shenpei to defend Yecheng. As a famous defender of the city, Shenpei built a large number of fortifications in and around Yecheng.

"General, please stop the siege immediately."

When Zhang Yan was at a loss, Jia Xu, a counselor sent by Qin Kai, stopped Zhang Yan in time.

"What advice do you have, sir?"

Zhang Yan lacked resourcefulness, and knew that Jia Xu could speak well, so he had no choice but to rely on Jia Xu.

Jia Xu said slowly: "The general can order the soldiers to destroy the earth hills and tunnels, dig trenches, and besiege Yecheng."

"Sir, are you going to besiege the city? Although the siege is the least costly way to siege the city, it will last for a long time. With Yecheng's food and grass, it will last for several months, which is more than enough. How can I meet with the priest of Youzhou at Jieqiao?"

It's not that Zhang Yan never thought of besieging Yecheng. When the food and grass in Yecheng were exhausted, the defenders of Yecheng had to surrender.

It's just that it takes too long.

If Yuan Shao defeated Qin Kai at Jieqiao, maybe Yuan Shao would turn around and defeat Zhang Yan.

"This statement is wrong. The general led troops to besiege Yecheng, which made it impossible for Yecheng's soldiers, horses, food and grass to be transferred to Jieqiao. Then Yuan Shao had to rely on food and grass from other cities. The food and grass in other cities could not sustain millions of troops. Yuan Shao will force Due to the pressure, he was forced to take the initiative to attack. As long as Yuan Shao takes the initiative to attack, then it is easy to expose his flaws. The general does not need to capture Yecheng, it has already played its due role."

Jia Xu takes a longer view than Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan's Black Mountain Army has held back a large number of Yuan Shao's troops for Qin Kai.

"Even so, if you can't take Yecheng, you won't be able to put enough pressure on Yuan Shao, and I'm not happy."

Zhang Yan was still inclined to capture Yecheng, completely destroy Yuan Shao's military morale, and then encircle Yuan Shao in one go.

"If the general is not afraid of hurting the sky,

Reason, there is another plan. "

Jia Xu pondered for a while, and finally said slowly.

"What plan?"

"It can make people dig trenches, divert the Zhang River, flood Yecheng, and turn Yecheng into a swamp."

"hiss……"

Zhang Yan and all the generals of the Black Mountain Army were shocked by Jia Xu's water attack plan, and they took a breath.

Yecheng is one of the largest cities in the Three Kingdoms region. Once it is attacked by water, it will surely destroy people's lives.

The durability of defensive buildings such as earth hills and city walls will be greatly reduced if they are attacked by fire or water.

Water attack is a way of siege, which is harmful to nature and reason.

This strategist is really vicious!

Many generals of the Black Mountain Army who thought they were decisive in killing and attacking also thought it was a poisonous plan after hearing Jia Xu's plan.

"In troubled times, human life is worthless. In order to capture Yecheng as soon as possible, it's okay to use the strategy of water attack. Leader, let's do it like this!"

The Montenegrin military general turned his eyes fiercely, and urged Zhang Yan to accept Jia Xu's plan of water attack.

In order to attack Yecheng, many of his subordinates were killed and wounded by the soldiers and horses of the guard general Shenpi.

"It would be great if we could defeat Yuan Jun quickly. But I heard that the judge is very stubborn. If we use water attack, he still refuses to lead the army to surrender. Wouldn't it be the siege of Yecheng in the end?"

Zhang Yan thought again and again, doubting whether the flooded city of Ye could be forced to land for trial.

The judge is a general who is loyal to Yuan Shao.

Use tricks to attack the city, but also watch who will be the guard.

Cao Cao flooded Xiapi and captured Lu Bu alive, but Guan Yu besieged Fancheng, but was unable to capture Fancheng, which was defended by Cao Ren and Man Chong.

The toughness of trial and match is no less than that of Cao Ren and Man Chong, and the characteristics of generals used to defend the city.

"The general is wrong again."

"What's wrong with me?"

"The flooding of Ye City does not hit the will of the judge, but the morale of the defenders. The judge is unwilling to surrender, and the soldiers or strangers under him may not be able to stick to it."

"I see!"

Zhang Yan was in awe.

It turned out that Jia Xu's calculation was not the trial assignment, but the trial assignment's subordinates.

The trial pair is loyal to Yuan Shao, but it does not mean that the trial pair's subordinates are also loyal to Yuan Shao.

"Then do as you say."

Zhang Yan finally decided to attack the city according to Jia Xu's strategy.

The Black Mountain Army began to stop attacking the city, built catapults and other siege weapons, destroyed the earth hills and tunnels outside Yecheng that threatened the Black Mountain Army, and began to dig trenches.

Although the Black Mountain Army lacked high-level troops, they had countless cannon fodder for digging trenches, and soon they were in full swing, and a deep trench was dug around Yecheng.

Once Shen Pei sent troops to destroy it, Zhang Yan immediately led the troops and defeated Shen Pei.

The ability to defend the city is first-rate, but Zhang Yan is not as good as Zhang Yan when using troops in the wild.

What's more, Zhang Yan still has an advantage in strength.

Once the Montenegrin army is on top, the trial and distribution must retreat.
