Three Kingdoms: Jiuyuan Tiger

Chapter 419 Cao Cao Fights Liu Dai

After thinking about this, Lu Bu began to think about how to arrange the whereabouts of Mr. Bao Longtu.

According to the system of three provinces and six ministries in the Sui and Tang dynasties, it would be perfect for Mr. Bao to be placed in the Ministry of Punishment.

But there is no such opportunity right now, so Lu Bu can only follow the old method and arrange Mr. Bao as a local official first.

Only by making achievements at the local level can they be justified when they are promoted in the future.

But where is the right place to arrange for Mr. Bao?

After thinking about it for a while, Lu Bu changed Zhang Juzheng to be the prefect of Zhuojun, and at the same time appointed Bao Zheng as the magistrate of Jixian County.

Afterwards, Jin Yiwei came to report that Han Fu's nephew Han Qi had been captured, and has now been escorted to Ji County to await his release.

Lu Bu was dumbfounded after hearing this, who is this person?Why is it so familiar?

After thinking for a long time, Lu Bu finally remembered who this old man was. Isn't this the sand sculpture who had a dispute with Guo Jia and Xu Shu at the beginning!
[For details, see Chapter 166: A farce in Yingchuan Academy. 】

Seeing Han Qi who was on pins and needles and submissive, Lu Bu no longer had any interest in teasing him.

In order not to hurt the feelings of Han Fu's former subordinates, Lu Bu casually rewarded Han Qi with a remote house, but did not embarrass him too much.

After Han Qi left, Lu Bu said meaningfully: "This man is like a pencil that is constantly being used. It was sharp at first, but it gradually became smooth. But it is not a good thing to be too smooth, because smooth Then it’s time to get cut again.”

A few days later, Sun Ce and Ma Chao rushed to Ji County with their entourage, and formally began to learn art from a teacher.

These two brothers both used spears, and Lu Bu used a halberd, so naturally he couldn't teach them marksmanship.

But it doesn't hurt too much, Lu Bu has many master spearmen under his command, so he can pick out a few to teach him no matter what.

Among the local generals, Zhao Yun with a white horse and a silver spear, Zhang Fei with a spear, Tai Shici, a warrior from Donglai, Wu Jun, a young general from Qu'a, and Wen Chou, who has recently joined the ranks;
Among the summoned generals, Yang Zaixing, Lin Renzhao, Yue Fei, Chang Yuchun, Luo Cheng, Yang Qilang and others can all become their spear teachers.

Most of these fierce generals' marksmanship is self-contained, and the two of them must have benefited a lot after learning it.

It can be seen that Sun Ce and Ma Chao are also very happy to come to Ji County to study art, and the smiles on their faces have never faded.

……

Yanzhou, Sanyang County.

Although it is already October, the flames of war in Yanzhou are still burning.

Boss Cao is not as rich and powerful as Lu Bu, and he dispatches [-] soldiers and horses at every turn.

Boss Cao, who has few soldiers and few generals, can only take one step at a time, gradually encroaching on the counties and counties under Liu Dai's command.

After losing Dongjun and Jiyin counties one after another, Liu Dai mobilized soldiers and horses from other counties and counties to defend Shanyang County to the death.

Changyi is Liu Dai's base camp, so Liu Dai naturally has to concentrate his troops on defense.

But even so, Liu Dai is still not having a good time, and his situation is very worrying.

When he raised his troops, Cao Cao had only [-] cavalry and [-] infantry under his command, and counting Chenliu's county soldiers, there were only more than [-].

But every time Cao Cao captured a city, he would sort out the soldiers and horses among them, and organize them into various ministries in disorder.

Under this style of fighting to support war, Cao Cao's soldiers and horses have not decreased, but have been increasing.

Up to now, Cao Cao has a total of [-] cavalry and more than [-] infantry under his command. They have plundered the treasuries of Dongjun and Jiyin counties. For a while, Cao Cao doesn't have to worry about food and grass.

Although there are certain risks in doing so, Cao Cao has no choice.

If it is not included in the surrender, Cao Cao's soldiers and horses will not exceed eight thousand at the moment.

With 8000 people, why should they conquer the city of Changyi, which is strong and well-fed?
But Cao Cao adopted the style of fighting to support war, but Liu Dai suffered.

How can Liu Dai's unscrupulous planners and no strong generals withstand the schemes of counselors such as Xun Yu and Cheng Yu, and the attacks of strong generals such as Luo Song and Xiahou Dun?

In this way, Liu Dai retreated steadily, and Shanyang County ruled the next ten counties, and Liu Dai had already lost more than half.

Among the ten county towns of Changyi, Juye, Jinxiang, Dongmin, Fangdong, Fangyu, Gaoping, Hulu, Nanpingyang, and Xiaqiu, except for Changyi City, which was strictly guarded by Liu Dai, the rest will be destroyed in a short time. Become Cao Cao's pocket.

Liu Dai was ready to fight to the death. Most of the elite soldiers and generals from the counties and counties were transferred to Changyi City by Liu Dai.

It is said that it is the soldiers and horses of the counties and counties in Yanzhou, but in fact Liu Dai can only use the soldiers and horses of Shanyang County.

Chenliu County, Dong County and Jiyin County were all captured by Cao Cao, and more than half of Taishan County did not listen to Liu Dai's orders, because there was Zang Ba in Taishan County with a group of younger brothers.

At this time, Zang Ba did not join Tao Qian, but recruited a group of people in Taishan County to work alone, and lived a life of occupying the mountain as king.

Liu Dai sent troops to conquer several times, but Zang Ba was brave and well-versed in the way of using troops, so the several times of conquering all failed.

Later, Liu Dai simply ignored Zang Ba, and Zang Ba was naturally happy to be at leisure, and continued to live his chic life as the king of the mountain.

Now at this juncture, Zang Ba is benevolent if he doesn't beat the dog in the water to trouble Liu Dai, how can Liu Dai dare to ask for trouble?

However, under the persuasion of his subordinates, Liu Dai wrote a letter to Zang Ba. In the letter, Liu Dai sincerely asked Zang Ba to send troops to help, and promised that after repelling Cao Cao, he would write to the court and appoint Zang Ba as the prefect of Mount Tai. The entire Taishan County was ceded to Zang Ba.

Whether Zang Ba will send troops, Liu Dai does not know, but he has already reached this point, giving Zang Ba the right to edit books as a dead horse and a living horse doctor.

Even if there is a [-]% chance, Liu Dai must give it a try. The relationship between him and Cao Cao is endless, so Liu Dai must do everything possible to protect himself, otherwise the day Changyi City is destroyed, it will be Liu Dai. It's time for Dai to give the head!

……

Taishan County, Zang Ba's cottage.

Zang Ba sat on the first seat, holding in his hand the letter sent by the envoy sent by Liu Dai risking his life.

Sun Guan, Wu Dun, Yin Li, and Brother Chang Xi lined up on both sides of Zang Baxia's first place.

Although the reputation of these four brothers is not obvious, but in Mount Tai, mentioning them can definitely reach the level of "stop crying for children".

Because the four of them are the four bandits of Mount Tai who occupy the mountain as king!

Logically speaking, Zang Ba should not have appeared in Taishan County at this time, let alone become the boss of Sun Guan and the others.

Perhaps this matter was caused by the butterfly effect brought about by Lu Bu's crossing, or some unknown reasons, but at this time, Zang Ba really appeared in Taishan County, and he became one of the four bandits of Mount Tai. the boss.

After reading the letter, Zang Ba sneered and said, "Liu Dai is having a hard time, isn't he? I guess more than half of the city in Shanyang County has fallen into the hands of Cao Cao, right?"

The envoy said righteously: "The general's words are wrong! Cao Cao is still attacking Jiyin County, but he is blocked by Yanzhou soldiers and horses, making it difficult to advance. How can the city of Shanyang County be captured?"

Zang Ba raised his eyebrows, and shouted in a rage: "It's hard to make progress! Now, are you still talking nonsense? If it's not a critical moment, why would old Liu Dai ask me for help?"

After finishing speaking, Zang Ba stared at the envoy with piercing eyes and said, "This begging should look like a begging, what do you think? Tell the truth, what is the current situation?"

　One more!Thank you brother 520 Qixiaoxi for your reward!
