The Power of the Three Kingdoms at the End of the Han Dynasty and the Imperial Power of the Han Dyna

Sufficient preparations were made before the war, and the cavalry attacked unexpectedly. Qingzhou suddenly fell into the flames of war, Pingyuan County had fallen, and Le'an Kingdom was also occupied in one day.

Wang Ling led the infantry to follow Zhang Liao and stabilize the place. Zhang Liao had 8,000 men, leaving 3,000 to cooperate with Wang Ling. The remaining 5,000 were taken south and blocked the strategic points southward.

Donglai.

In the hometown of Taishi Ci, has anyone ever seen thousands of horses galloping?

There is no battle or confrontation at all. Putting on the Qingzhou soldiers' clothes, a group of cavalry mounted war horses to confuse the enemy, and forcibly occupied the city gate. Then thousands of horses galloped into the city, and those who resisted were killed without mercy.

After taking Huang County, the county seat, the cavalry once again dispersed and attacked, heading south as quickly as possible to block the enemy's opportunity to report the news.

Beihai County.

Zhao Yun first ordered people to occupy Gaomi and Anqiu counties, and then led an army to appear at the foot of Ju County. This was the first time that the army went south without using blitzkrieg.

If Zhao Yun hadn't suddenly appeared, Kong Rong wouldn't have known that Qingzhou had changed.

"Below the city..."

"Bingzhou Army, Zhao Yun, pays homage to Prefect Kong!"

"General Zhao!"

Only then did Kong Rong understand that the army that suddenly appeared in Beihai came from the north. "No wonder there are so many cavalry."

"I don't know if the general is coming this time..."

"Prefect Kong, my lord has an order. As long as Prefect Kong is willing to surrender, the lives of the prefect and the Kong family will not be in danger."

Kong Rong has more than 10,000 people in his hands. If he resists, Zhao Yun will most likely not choose to attack by force, but what happens next?

Fall is a matter of time.

"Prefect Kong, my lord has sent 100,000 troops this time, including 50,000 cavalry, which will surely capture the entire territory of Qingzhou. You don't have much time."

Kong Rong frowned. The nobles in the city probably would not surrender for fear of future liquidation, but what about the tens of thousands of people in the city? "General Zhao, please give me three days..."

"One day, one day, if there is no reply tomorrow, we will regard the prefect as our enemy, and the last bit of friendship between you and my lord will be gone."

"Oh, by the way, I just received the news today that Gongsun Zan was killed yesterday, and Pingyuan County and Le'an Kingdom have been completely taken over."

Before Zhao Yun left, he dropped another bombshell on Kong Rong. In one day, the Hejian King's army completely occupied the two places.

"Since Zhao Yun dares to say it with such confidence, it must be true."

"Ugh!"

Kong Rong has one head and two heads.

Ten days later, Yecheng.

Liu Han has received the battle report from Guo Jia, "Zhicai, no surprise, Qingzhou has been won."

"Lord, we should continue to block the news. Although Qingzhou has been captured, there are still large and small rebellions and bandits in the state that need to be exterminated."

"Let Duan Xuan go and cooperate with Zhao Yun."

"Here."

"Gongsun Zan, what a pity."

There was once a hero in space and time, but now he is like a firework that only bloomed for a moment, and his short life was hastily ended in the war.

"Xu Huang's troops still can't withdraw, which is quite confusing."

"Of course, not only that, but also showing that you want to cross the river."

"Ha ha ha ha…"

Yanzhou, Juancheng, Dongjun.

Cao Cao was nervous for more than ten days, but there was no movement. "Wen Ruo, the King of Hejian has been in Yecheng for fifteen days, why has there been no movement?"

Xun Yu was also surprised. He couldn't figure out what kind of medicine Liu Han was selling in his gourd. Logically speaking, fifteen days was enough to assemble the army.

"Lord, the latest intelligence from the Baima Crossing front shows that Xu Huang is ready to cross the river."

Xun You: "This battle doesn't feel like that person's fighting style."

Cao Cao also agreed: "Yes, according to his past temper, the army has already been mobilized."

Xun You boldly made a guess: "Could it be that...the King of Hejian deliberately appeared in Yecheng to attract our attention?"

Cao Cao asked Xun Yu: "Wen Ruo, have you received news that Chen Liu was attacked?"

Xun Yu shook his head: "Lord, no, Chen Liu and Zhang Chao were not attacked."

Cao Cao suddenly thought of something and quickly ran to the map, "Gongda, what did you just say was Liu Han's purpose of deliberately appearing in Yecheng?"

"Lord, attract all of our attention."

"Yes! If he is really just trying to attract everyone's attention, then what is his purpose? It's been half a month, and he has lost the opportunity. It is definitely impossible to forcefully enter Yanzhou, then..."

As Cao Cao's eyes changed, Xun Yu also saw the northeast corner: "Qingzhou!"

Xun You also reacted: "Yes! Only Qingzhou! The goal of King Hejian from the beginning was not Yanzhou but Qingzhou!"

"What a move to hit the east and the west! Amazing!"

Cao Cao smiled bitterly: "What if we discover his purpose? Do we still have the ability to control Qingzhou now?"

Xun Yu asked: "Master, do you want to let this news out?"

"How to put it? Just rely on our guess?"

Cao Cao refused, just based on speculation, who would believe it?

"Besides, even if it is revealed to Liu Bei, he probably won't be able to get it back now!"

"My lord?"

"If my guess is correct, Liu Han has already controlled the entire Qingzhou."

"Is it impossible? Win a state in half a month?" Xun Yu didn't believe it and wanted to make a final struggle.

Xun You agreed with Cao Cao's statement: "No, I think what your lord said is very possible, because the King of Hejian always focuses on speed in fighting. He made a lot of preparations before the war, so that the duration of each war was controlled within half moon."

Xun Yu quickly went through Liu Han's previous battles in his mind, and said dejectedly: "Qingzhou... was captured by that man silently."

Cao Cao was suddenly under great pressure. Xun You had put a lot of effort into Liu Han, so why not himself? Except for a few special battles, whether it was Xianbei, Xiongnu, Wuhuan, Qiang, or Dong Zhuo, this man controlled the war time to half a month.

"It's still the cavalry!"

The biggest gap between them and Liu Han is the cavalry!

They were unable to attack long distances in a short time like Liu Han, nor were they able to penetrate the enemy's formation with cavalry from the front like Liu Han.

If you want to fight him, "Jiang Dong..."

Cao Cao had the idea of ​​​​Jiangdong again. Jiangdong was covered with water networks and crisscrossed by river systems. Although it was a plain, it was impossible to deploy the cavalry on a large scale. If he fought with Liu Han, he would gain an advantage. Even if he wants to come to Jiangdong, he still has to cross the natural dangers of the Yangtze River, which is another big problem.

Northerners are not accustomed to the southern environment. Liu Han's army will inevitably lose combat effectiveness when it arrives in the south, and he will have the advantage.

If we occupy Jiangdong earlier and cooperate with the powerful local nobles, there will be peace.

Only with the right time, right location, and right people can we defeat Liu Han and launch a counterattack against him from a corner.

As long as he suffers a major defeat, the nobles under his rule will inevitably rebound, causing internal and external troubles, and the overall situation will be determined!

All this is now Cao Cao's beautiful fantasy. What he has to face now is not Liu Han, but the chaos in Yanzhou. (End of chapter)
