Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 479 Changes
After Huang Zhong and Zhang He led [-] soldiers, they came to set up camp outside the city of Dongjun.

They didn't take any drastic actions, and they didn't directly attack Dongjun City. They just went to the city to fight from time to time, as if they didn't intend to take back Dongjun City.

And in the city.

Guan Yu did not go out of the city to attack the Han camp because of the similar strength of the troops.

He also knows very well that even if the soldiers and horses are similar, he has no possibility of winning completely, and if he goes out of the city to attack the Han army's camp, he may be seized by the Han army and break through the city.

But under the call of Huang Zhong and Zhang He.

He also went out of the city to fight, and he fought alone with Huang Zhong, evenly matched.

The two parties also seemed to live in peace, living a very stable life, it just depends on which party can't calm down first.

and.

The attention of both of them is not here, but Jizhou, where everything is decided, and it will also affect the battle situation on their side.

Huang Zhong and Zhang Xi were not sure about using [-] troops to forcibly capture Dongjun, which had [-] defenders, and their main purpose was not to forcibly take back Dongjun.

And Guan Yu was not sure about defeating Huang Zhong and Zhang Yun.

Can only wait.

But said.

Liu Bei, Shenpei, and Xu Huang led more than [-] Qi troops and marched towards Jizhou, but they did not go to Nanpi. They joined forces with Zhang Fei's army to capture Nanpi.

Instead, they are going to take the empty territory of Jizhou directly.

however.

Just after leaving the territory of Dongjun, he received bad news.

at dusk.

Set up camp on the border of Dongjun, and wait until tomorrow morning before continuing to march to Jizhou.

In the main account.

Liu Bei, Shenpei, and Xu Huang are discussing where to start in Jizhou first.

"My lord, my subordinates think that we can go through Puyang. Now Wei Yan is leading the Han army in Jizhou to fight against General Zhang in Nanpi. The soldiers and horses left in Jizhou are only the defenders of the city, and there are only [-] defenders in Puyang. !"

"After taking Puyang, you can take the lands of Neihuang and Yangping, then detour to Guangping and Guangzong, and you can go directly to Xindu. If you take these places quickly, you can cut off Wei Yan's back road. Finally, from the Xindu marched, took Nanpi directly, joined forces with General Zhang to attack the Han army led by Wei Yan, and captured Nanpi in one fell swoop!"

"In this way, more than half of Jizhou will fall into the hands of the lord. After taking Nanpi and joining forces, we can take Yecheng and other places, and take the entire land of Jizhou!"

The judge pointed at the map with his fingers, and talked hurriedly, his face full of confidence.

Originally, the place he most wanted to take advantage of the emptiness of Jizhou's troops was Yecheng, but he also knew that the [-] troops led by Ma Chao had already stayed in Yecheng, and it was obvious that they were on guard.

It can only be retreated.

Take most of Jizhou first, and finally seize Yecheng.

heard.

Liu Bei also nodded and said: "So, let's act according to Zhengnan's words, capture Puyang first, and then make plans!"

In his heart, taking down Yecheng was also his first goal. After all, the Zhen family in Yecheng was a wealthy businessman, and with the support of Liu Qi now, they were even richer.

If you can collect the property of the Zhen family, you can do even more things.

However, he also knew that with Ma Chao leading [-] troops to guard Yecheng, it would not be easy to capture Yecheng, and he might be dragged to live in Yecheng.

Then it's not worth the loss.

however.

When Liu Bei wanted to say something.

A soldier came in from outside the tent.

"Report, Ma Chao from Yecheng led fifty thousand soldiers and horses, left Yecheng and marched in the direction of Puyang!" the soldier knelt down and bowed.

heard.

Liu Bei, Shenpei, and Xu Huang also showed surprised expressions.

They all thought that Ma Chao should be guarding Yecheng, and Ma Chao had indeed stayed in Yecheng for two days, and it was obvious that he had the intention of guarding Yecheng.

But now he led his troops to leave Yecheng and marched towards Puyang.

This kind of behavior is to stop their army in Puyang.

But in this way.

Yecheng will also become empty of troops, and they can also take a detour to attack Yecheng instead of attacking Puyang.

Several people looked at each other, some couldn't figure out what Ma Chao wanted to do.

"This, this!" The judge didn't know what to say.

He couldn't figure out what was missing there, and it was impossible for Ma Chao not to know that even if he led an army to intercept their army in Puyang, it wouldn't have any effect.

After all, they can take a detour and go straight to the land of Yecheng.

This strategy was used by Liu Qi when he attacked Yuan Shao, and because of this, he captured Jizhou, and Yuan Shao committed suicide in Xindu.

Just when Liu Bei and the others hadn't digested this information.

Another soldier walked in.

"Report, General Guan sent me to report that there are now tens of thousands of Han troops camping three miles outside the city in Dongjun, but the main banner of the King of Han has not been seen in the Han army, and there are less than [-] soldiers and horses. General Guan Guess with Lord Xu that the King of Han has already led a part of the Han army to come to the lord, I hope the lord can be vigilant!" The soldiers knelt down and bowed.

This soldier was also sent by Guan Yu.

After all, the Han army in Yanzhou is tens of thousands less, and Liu Qi is not there, so it is obvious that the troops have been divided into two groups.

After listening to the report of the general.

Liu Bei and the examiner also panicked.

Combined with the reports of the soldiers sent by Guan Yu, they also knew why Ma Chao, who had stayed in Yecheng, continued to march towards Puyang with [-] soldiers.

There was also panic in the judge's eyes.

In this way, the strategy he put forward was useless. After all, the premise of all this was that Liu Qi would lead the army to take back Dongjun first.

But now Liu Qi didn't have that kind of plan, he just asked someone to lead an army of tens of thousands to hold back the soldiers and horses of Dongjun, and then lead an army to intercept them.

The plan he proposed was cracked in one fell swoop.

There is an army of [-] led by Ma Chao, plus an army of tens of thousands led by Liu Qi.

It is simply impossible for them to seize the land of Jizhou quickly, and they are still in a state of attacking back and forth, so they can't help but refuse to fight.

It can be said that the only miscalculation among them is that Liu Qi will take back Dongjun first.

"What does Zhengnan think should be done now?" Liu Bei looked at the judge and said.

His tone also changed, and the cold light in his eyes also flashed, fleeting.

Obviously, it is no longer the Han army that is in trouble, but they are in a dilemma.

The judge's mind was also running fast. He also felt Liu Bei's attitude and was a little panicked.

Soon, I also thought of it.

He said, "My lord, you don't need to worry too much!"

Liu Bei also looked at the judge quietly, wanting to hear how the judge can solve the current situation.

"My lord, although we were a little caught off guard by King Han's unexpected behavior, but don't forget, my lord, there are King Wei and King Wu!"

"Since it is impossible to seize the land of Jizhou quickly, our army can also start a duel with the Han army in Puyang. In this way, we can hold back the Han army, and in this way, King Wei and King Wu will also take action!"

"Our army held back the battle-worthy soldiers of the King of Han. The Kings of Wei and Wu will definitely not miss this opportunity. Once they deploy their troops, the crisis of our army will be resolved!"
