At the foot of Guangling City, Yuan Si was organizing his army to attack the city again, when suddenly someone came running.

"General!"

"Ok?"

Yuan Si looked at the soldier with a charred face, his hair was burned a lot, and he looked panicked: "Why are you panicking?"

"General, it's bad, our ferry at Jiangdu was burned by Li Dian!"

"what?!"

Although the boats on the other side of the ferry were not owned by Yuan Jun, they still accounted for 60% (40% were used to transport food back). The disappearance of the boats meant that the army's retreat was temporarily cut off.

"Ming Jin withdraws his troops!"

Yuan Si planned to withdraw his troops and shrink his troops to Jiangdu. First, he would keep the ferry and wait for the next food shipment. Second, he would use local materials to build simple warships to ensure the transmission of information.

At the same time, Chen Deng also received a message from Li Dian. He had succeeded at Jiangdu Ferry. Yuan Si had withdrawn his troops. Chen Deng knew that the opportunity had come!
"Send a message to General Sun and ask him to lead his men out."

"Here."

"Call the reserve team of five hundred people to follow me out of the city to kill the enemy!"

"As ordered!"

Dangdang!
Yuan Jun retreated, and suddenly there were shouts of killing from the side.

"kill!"

"kill!"

Compared with the Han army, the biggest disadvantage of the Yuan army is that the number of horses is far less than that of the Han army. Yuan Shu's entire army of 100,000 people only had 6,000 cavalry. Yuan Si's 8,000 people only had 200 horses, and the rest were all infantry. Li Dian and Sun Guan had five thousand men, but they had one thousand cavalry.

The war horses neighed, and there was another surprise attack. Yuan Jun was caught off guard.

"Quick! Form a formation to meet the enemy!"

"Cavalry! The cavalry fight out from both wings and give the infantry time!"

Yuan Si responded very quickly. Although the cavalry was powerful, the horses would not attack the battle formation. As long as they formed a formation, the army could withdraw.

However, Chen Deng did not give Yuan Si a chance.

"kill!"

The gates of Guangling City were opened wide, and Chen Deng led his troops to charge out, causing chaos in Yuan Jun's infantry formation.

"kill!"

The cavalry rushed to Yuan's army and successfully divided Yuan's army into two.

"Quick! Get back! Archers cover!"

Yuan Si still wanted to save the army, but the Han army was already fighting with his own side.

"Report! General, Han troops have appeared in the rear camp, and most of the food and grass have been burned!"

"It's over!"

At this time, Yuan Si didn't know that he had fallen into Chen Deng's serial plan? !

Li Dian wanted to attack Yuan Si's rear as originally planned and deal a devastating blow to Yuan's army, but when he burned the warships, he felt that the number was wrong. The number of warships seemed to be less.

After he was captured alive and asked, he found out that some of the warships had returned to Shouchun. Li Dian made a decisive decision and changed his battle plan. Instead of attacking Yuan Sihou's army, he directly attacked the camp and burned the food and grass.

Even if Yuan Si withdraws his troops, he will face a temporary food shortage.

"withdraw!"

"Get out!"

Yuan Si no longer wanted to fight, and just wanted to take the remaining people to retreat to Jiangdu.

#
Guangling County.

(Chen Deng) "Hahaha..."

(Li Dian) "Hahaha..."

(Sun Guan) "Hahaha..."

"Generals, please."

"Mr. Yuanlong, please!"

Li Dian and Sun Guan returned victorious and had a drink with Chen Deng.

"This battle is a great victory, Guangling has no worries!" "Hahaha..."

Yuan Si had 8,000 men in his hands, and one thousand were killed and wounded in the attack. He had 500 men at Jiangdu Ferry, and more than 400 were killed and wounded. The rest were missing, and fifty warships were burned.

At the foot of Guangling City, Chen Deng cooperated with Sun Guan and killed more than 1,000 Yuan soldiers and captured more than 2,000 people. Yuan Si's camp was burned down by Li Dian, and another 300 people were killed or injured. Yuan Si's 8,000 people came over, and now they have a fighting force. There are only three thousand left, how to attack the city?
"what!"

Li Dian drank a full drink and said, "Mr. Yuanlong, our army suffered thousands of casualties in this battle. Please take care of the post-war pacification work."

"General, don't worry, I won't save you."

Now that he has joined the command of King Zhenbei, he must abide by King Zhenbei's rules. There must be no failure in the post-war pension work. If he dares to attack the martyrs, his whole family will die.

This is the bottom line for King Zhenbei.

"General, prepare a battle report as soon as possible and submit it to General Zhang and the King."

"Well, I'll write it right now."

As a general under Liu Han, the battle report must not only describe the gains and losses, but also the entire battle. This is a military rule.

Only when Chen Deng joined Liu Han's camp did he feel the many differences between him and other princes, including the army, policies, culture, inheritance, beliefs...

"Fortunately they are not enemies."

"Wenyuan, have you seen General Mancheng's battle report?"

"Of course I can see that Fengxiao, Li Dian and Chen Deng have made great achievements this time!"

Li Dian successfully repulsed Yuan's army, and there was no need to worry about the southern part of Xuzhou, so Zhang Liao could concentrate on dealing with Yuan's army from other directions.

Xiapi defender Wang Ling, deputy generals Zang Ba and Wu Dun, staff officer Chen Gui, and 10,000 defenders faced Ji Ling and Yuan Yin from Jiujiang.

Pengcheng defender Zhang Liao, lieutenants Xie Jun and Yin Li, military advisors Guo Jia and Chen Gong, with a garrison of 25,000, faced Zhang Xun's 20,000. (Xuzhou has 60,000 troops, and there are still 20,000 in Langya and Beihai. Langya Prime Minister Xiao Jian (temporary leader) and Beihai Prime Minister Mi Fang (temporary leader))
The pressure here is much less than that in Guangling.

"Fengxiao and Gongtai, let's prepare to fight."

"Here."

"Mancheng is good."

Liu Han, who was confronting Yuan Shu, was in a good mood when he received the battle report: "Securing Guangling is the first step. Let him cooperate with Ziyi (Tai Shi Ci) to occupy Jiujiang."

"Here."

"It is better to be happy alone than to be happy together. This matter should be reported to the whole army, and..." Liu Han looked at the opposite side: "Yuan Gou."

"Here."

Liu Han could conclude that Yuan Shu must be in a beautiful mood when he received this news.

"Instruct Zhu Jun to gather 30,000 people in the Sili area, with Wu Ming (Li Ru) as the staff officer, and Fan Chou, Zhang Heng, and Hu Che'er as deputy generals. They will go south to Nanyang to attack Yuan Zhu (Yuan Shao)."

"Here."

(In the Battle of Chang'an, Li Ru secretly took refuge with Liu Han. Liu Han claimed that Li Ru was killed, but in fact he survived and became unknown. He was mainly responsible for the war against the Qiang people in Xiliang.)
"Wenhe, Wenruo, Gongda, Mancheng has made some achievements, and we can't be idle here. Do you have any strategies to defeat the enemy?"

Liu Han's three scribes looked at each other, and Xun You stood up and said: "My lord, I think that our best strategy at this time is to wait!"

"Ok?"

"My lord, Yuan Ni (Xun You couldn't pronounce that word) must be more anxious than us when he receives the news that the army along the way is defeated. We only need to stay calm and wait for Yuan Ni to reveal his flaws and defeat the enemy with one strike."

"Um……"

Liu Han thought about the feasibility of getting the greatest victory at the smallest cost. So what if he waited a few days?

"Okay, let's do this first."

Xun Yu: "My lord, the most urgent task is to capture Xiaopei so that Yanzhou, Yuzhou and Xuzhou can be connected together."

"Send orders to Zhao Yun to capture Xiaopei as soon as possible."

"Here."

"Lu Zhao killed Chen Lan and asked him to fight every day to undermine the morale of Yuan's army."

"As ordered."

Armies from all walks of life started fighting one after another, and the war gradually became fierce. Now Liu Han has to compete with Yuan Shu for endurance. Whoever loses his composure first will lose.

"Let's all get ready."

"Here." (End of chapter)
