Chapter 548

The surprise attack on Liucheng, Guan Hai's notoriety can't be shaken off, only because the people who killed him were all Wuhuan people, so it is not notorious. This kind of killing, otherwise the military law is ruthless, Guan Hai is only Nuonuo's promise.

With a clever trick, he conquered all the tribes in Wuhuan with a loss of less than a thousand men and horses. He won the first battle and seized the opportunity, which greatly boosted Xu Shu's reputation.

Xu Shu ordered that Yuan Mai be taken to Liucheng as his nominal residence, and when Yuan Mai arrives, he can unleash the banner of the former general and governor of Youzhou.He also ordered Tai Shixiang to inspect the Liaoxi Corridor and wipe out the remnants of Wuhuan guarding the grain road.

According to the scheduled time, one day before was also the day when Lu Xun sent troops. Xu Shu deeply felt that Lu Xun's pressure was far greater than his own at this time, so he wanted to take Youzhou quickly, so as to go south to help Lu Xun.Therefore, he ordered Guan Hai and Liang Guang to continue to attack You Beiping, and divide their forces after they achieved no end. Wang Ji and Guan Hai attacked Yuyang County, and Liu Zhi and Liang Guang attacked Fanyang County.He and Chen Dao crossed Yuyang and approached Ji County, the governor of Youzhou.

The accumulation of several years of Liaodong iron cavalry has finally paid off. One man and two horses can preserve the physical strength of the horse, and they can continue to attack if they have spare power, otherwise they will need to rest for at least another day.

Guan Hai and Liang Guang spent two days digging through Youbeiping, from Xu Wu to Wu Zhong on October 25, and divided their forces according to the plan. Guan Hai marched into Yuyang, an important town in Youzhou, while Liang Guang turned southwest to Fanyang, the southern gateway of Youzhou.

Yan Rou, the guard of Wuhuan Zhonglang who was stationed in Yuyang, was ordered to lead an army to conquer Hejian, so Guan Hai took Yuyang almost without any effort!Soon he joined Xu Shu and continued to march into Ji County.

Jia Kui had just received Cao Pi's order to step up his defense. Before he could react, the important town of Yuyang fell, which really caught him off guard.He ordered all the soldiers and horses to shrink and defend, while sending people to Bingzhou to ask the governor to send troops, and at the same time sending people to report to Cao Pi.

Although the coalition formed by Yan Rou and Ke Bineng defeated Su Bo and Tian Yin and forced them to defend Hejian, it seemed that the rebellion would be suppressed in a few days, but Cao Pi was still restless.He kept sending people to Youzhou and Xudu to inquire about the news. Xudu was the first to reply that Yu Jin and Xiahoudun were on the alert every day, and that Xuzhou gathered in Pengcheng, Xiapi, and Mount Tai except for soldiers and horses, and there was no change.

Just as Cao Pi wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, Jia Kui's messenger arrived on October 29: Yuyang fell!Cao Pi was very frightened by this. Why did Yuan Mai march so quickly?And Jia Kui has also found out that Yuan Mai's generals are Xu Shu and Xu Yuanzhi.

Cao Pi knew about Cao Cao's kidnapping of Xu Shu's mother. After that, Xu Shu's whereabouts were unknown. Unexpectedly, after a few years, Xu Shu suddenly appeared.

"The matter is urgent, the only thing we can do is to ask my lord to return from Guanzhong as soon as possible." Liu Ye and others said in unison.

"The messenger has already set off, but even if the troops are withdrawn, it will not be so fast. How to solve the siege of Youzhou?"

"A strategist of Liang Dao is well-known in the army and among the people, and there are few people who can help each other, so he can stick to Jixian County." Sima Yi said carefully, no one knew that he actually hated Jia Kui. "Fan Yang is an important place, connected to Jixian County in the north and Zhongshan in the south. It is the hub of Youzhou and Jizhou. It cannot be lost. Now Hejian is in the bag, so Kebi can return to the army to defend Fanyang. As long as Fan Yang is not lost , Jizhou is safe, once the Lord's army returns, Yuan Mai will be defeated soon!"

Sima Yi didn't dare to mobilize Jizhou soldiers and horses, and set his mind on the Xianbei people.

"Zhongda's words are in line with my wishes, and I will immediately let Kebineng return to Fanyang." Cao Pi thought for a while and said, "But Hejian needs to be captured as soon as possible, so that Yan Rou can return to Youzhou as soon as possible, and Bohai will be guarded." The army assists Yan Rou to put down the chaos in Hejian within three days!"

Cao Pi suddenly remembered something again. "Zi Yang, immediately lead people to surround Ma Teng's mansion and kill all the people in the mansion!"

At the same time, Cao Cao, who was far away in Huaili, received a report from Cao Pi, and Yuan Mai issued a call to crusade against Youzhou.Cao Cao was shocked. He would never believe that Yuan Shao's youngest son would have such a boldness, nor would he believe that he would have such strength. Zhou Cang must be behind this, something serious happened.

Xun You, Cheng Yu, and Jia Xu were all thinking hard about Zhou Cang's intentions and where his target would be if he went to war.

"Zihuan sent a letter saying that the mastermind must be Zhou Weiguo, and he suggested that our army directly attack Xuzhou." Cao Cao played with the letter in his hand.

Cheng Yu has always been wary of Zhou Cang, but at this moment he is a little hesitant. "Although it can be predicted that Zhou Weiguo did it, is it wrong to send troops to Xuzhou directly?"

Lu Xun and Xu Shu had the problem of poor information transmission, so why not Cao Cao? It is also true that Lu Xun took advantage of the time difference to make it impossible for Cao Cao to determine the route to deploy troops.

Xun You said: "In any case, our army needs to return to Yedu as soon as possible to deal with emergencies. Therefore, we can't wait any longer and attack Ma Chao and Han Sui!"

As if this was the best strategy, Cao Cao immediately ordered the tiger and leopard cavalry to be the first to attack. Xia Houyuan, Zhang Liao, Li Dian, Le Jin, and Zhu Ling each led 1 horses to attack.

Ma Chao and Han Sui were frightened at this time. The two armies clashed, and Xiliang soldiers were defeated. Ma Chao took Ma Dai and Pang De and led the remnants to Hanzhong to join Zhang Lu.Han Sui couldn't return to Jincheng, and fled to Dunhuang with his candidates and Li Kan. After the death, Liang Xing was killed by Xia Houyuan.Yan Xing led his people to defect to Cao Cao, and Yongzhou and most of Liangzhou became Cao Cao's rule.

On the second day of November, Cao Cao ordered Zhang to be the governor of Yongzhou, and left Xia Houyuan, Zhu Ling, Zhao Yan and Yan Xing to continue to attack Han Sui in Liangzhou, and led the army back to Yedu in a hurry.

Let's talk about Lu Xun.It was originally planned to depart from Dongnae on the 22nd, but unfortunately the weather was not beautiful, the sea was blowing with strong winds, and the waves were rough and it was difficult to go out to sea.Lu Xun and Gan Ning were very anxious and ordered the ships to enter the port to avoid the wind.The two checked the wind every day for four consecutive days. They were not able to board the ship until the wind and waves were slightly lighter on the 26th, and they arrived in Zhangwu one after another on the 29th.

On the [-]th, Ding Feng set up camp in Zhangwu, and Gan Ning and Xu Sheng marched south to Bohai County.On the second day of November, conquer Nanpi.The occupation of Nanpi was unexpectedly smooth, so that Gan Ning was worried that the news would leak out. Cao Jun deliberately lured himself deep into the Nanpi County Guard and found out that the garrison had been ordered by Cao Pi to go to Hejian to assist Yan Rou in suppressing the rebellion the day before. There are more than a thousand people in the city.

Gan Ning and Xu Sheng couldn't help but feel lucky, if it wasn't for a few days of delay due to the wind and waves, there would be a fierce battle in Nanpi.However, failing to wipe out the defenders in Nanpi lays a hidden danger for the next step. Yan Rou may lead the army back to Nanpi at any time and cut off the way back!

The two thought over and over again, and Gan Ning decided to continue the blitzkrieg. He alone led a battalion to Qinghe, passed through Nanping and went straight to Liyang, while Xu Sheng stayed at Nanpi to wait for Lu Xun's army.
