Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 591 Cold Blooded
"I said, you write it. The general idea is that Cao Xiu, Wang Ling, and Wang Lang were defeated by Julu and retreated to Guangping. Xu Shu's army went south, and Guangping was in danger. Wang Chang quickly came to reinforce. There must be no mistake."

Xie Jun finished writing, stamped the letter and handed it to Xu Shu.Xu Shu read it carefully, and called Xu Sheng: "You have to go to Handan again, and give this letter to Wang Chang."

"Han Long, lead your men to lurk outside the city of Handan. When you see Wang Chang leaving the city, you will attack Handan. Uncle Zhi, you lead 1 troops to lie in ambush on the main road. When you see Wang Chang's soldiers arrive, you will encircle and wipe them out."

Wang Chang opened up wasteland in Handan, repaired water conservancy, and cultivated with the people. He made outstanding achievements in his political affairs, but he was a little bit ignorant of the war in Hebei. He only knew that the battle ahead was tight.

"Report, Prefect Xie sent someone to deliver the letter."

Wang Chang ordered Xu Sheng to be called in, and when he opened the letter, he was shocked. Cao Xiu and Wang Ling were besieged?One is Cao Cao's nephew, and the other is his own elder brother, neither of which can be tolerated. If the giant deer is lost, Guangping will become the most important barrier in Yedu, let alone lose it.

While flustered, Wang Chang did not forget to verify the handwriting and seal, and it was Xie Jun who was right. "I'm going to gather all the people to go to the rescue in person. It's just that I only have 3000 people..."

Xu Sheng cupped his hands and said, "My lord, Mr. Ziwen's reinforcements are on the way. We only need to defend Guangping for three to five days."

"Okay, you and I will go together."

"My lord, forgive me for not being able to pass. I have to rush to Yedu immediately to report to Mr. Zihuan."

"So I won't keep you, be careful all the way!"

Wang Chang ordered Qi's men and horses to go out of the city for about fifty li, but Chen Dao behind the hillside blocked the way. "Wang Wenshu, it's a plan for you to be the governor of my family! Let the arrows go!"

Countless archers appeared on the hillside, and arrows rained down like rain in an instant. Wang Chang hurriedly ordered the troops to transfer back to Handan, and Chen Dao chased after them.After chasing to the city of Handan, Wang Chang had only a thousand men under his command.

"Quickly open the city gate!" Wang Chang yelled.

The city gate opened, a general rushed out, and stabbed Wang Chang head-on with an iron spear. Wang Chang was caught off guard. Even if he was prepared, he would not be Han Long's opponent.

The rest of Cao's army bowed to the ground, abandoned their weapons and surrendered.Han Long welcomes Chen Dao into the city and sends someone to report to Xu Shu.This day coincides with December 24th.Counting from Cao Xiu's dispatch of troops to Hejian, Xu Shu's army had already attacked Handan within 35 days, less than a hundred miles away from Yedu.

On December [-]th, Zhang Jai marched into Guangzong. Although Sima Yi did not send a single soldier to rescue Wei County, there were only [-] soldiers in the city.Deng Zhan's swordsmanship was extraordinary, and Yan Rou's archery skills were even more exquisite. One person in close combat and the other in long-range shooting caused great damage to the Hejian army.

In the end, they were outnumbered. After ten days of siege, Guangzong was conquered, Deng Zhan and other three died in battle, and Zhang Jai lost more than [-] people.Zhang Jai rested in Guangzong for a day and continued to go south to Wei County. The place he passed was desolate and shocking: all the houses, plants and trees were burned, and the wells were filled.

"Report, General, a long fortress has been built outside the city of Wei County, nearly twenty miles away, guarded by Cao Jun, led by Sima Yi."

Zhang Jaw frowned slightly, Sima Yi is here, this guy is not easy to deal with, no wonder no one reinforces Guangzong, so he is here waiting for me.Zhang Zhaxun took a look at Cao Battalion Commander's Base, his brows furrowed even tighter, his defenses were so tight that they were invulnerable. "Send an order to set up camp twenty miles away, and order Sun Li to quickly adjust the supply of food and grass."

Deng Ai scratched his head anxiously, "What should I do?"

Zhang Jai suddenly frowned and laughed out loud.Zhuge Dan wondered: "Our army is blocked and unable to move forward. Why is the general laughing? Could it be that he has a good strategy to defeat the enemy?"

Liang Guang also wondered: "Sima Yi built a long fortress, even Xuanjia cavalry could hardly break through..."

Zhang Jai smiled and asked: "How many people do you think Cao Jun can have?"

"At least twenty thousand."

Deng Ai slapped his head: "Does the general think that Cao Jun thinks I am the main force, so he stationed a large number of troops here, and Xu Dudu and General Boyan will have an opportunity to take advantage of it?"

"Pengfei is right. Sima Yi is Cao Pi's confidant. Cao Pi sent Sima Yi to show that Ye is empty. As long as Xu and Lu march quickly, Ye can be obtained."

"So, we only need to drag Sima Yi here?"

"Starting tomorrow, the three of you will each take 5000 troops to take turns to test the attack. The attack is sufficient but not too close."

Zhuge Dan hesitated and said: "Originally we agreed to attack Yedu together with Governor Xu, but now the plan has changed..."

Zhang Jai waved his hand: "Soldiers are unpredictable, adapt to the situation, as long as the goal is achieved, there is no need to stick to one strategy. If Governor Xu can go south and approach Yedu smoothly, and General Lu can occupy Liyang, Hebei can be settled! Pengju, send someone to report to the two General, they make their own decisions."

Successfully blocked Zhang Jaw, Pei Qian admired Sima Yi a lot. "General Sima, I don't understand something, please advise. Why didn't the general send troops to rescue Guangzong?"

"It's not because I don't save it, but I can't save it. If we save Guangzong, our army will be in danger. First, Guangzong city is too small to accommodate my [-] troops. Second, if we don’t enter the city, our army will have no danger to defend outside the city, and the enemy army is in full swing, so I’m afraid it’s no match for us. Third, I have found out that General Wen Lie’s defeat was due to a mysterious heavy army under Zhang Jaw’s command. I don't know how many armored cavalry there are. There is no one to charge in the field. Therefore, I fortified the wall to clear the field and built a long fortress to make it insurmountable. Thanks to the three generals who earned me these ten days, I will report to you. Mr. Huan."

Pei Qian and Liu Ruo suddenly realized that they were not only impressed by Sima Yi's stability, but also surprised by his cold blood.

Xuzhou, Liaohou Mansion.

"Haha, does Yuanfang know how the Sun and Liu families ended up?"

"There's loud thunder and little rain, so let's just let it go." Zhou Wen chuckled. "Liu Bei stationed troops and the police did not move for several months. If you want to fight, why wait so long. It's not that the two families don't want to tear their faces, but because Cao Cao is powerful, they don't dare to fight with each other. It's just a show."

"It can't be said that it's all about showing off. Liu Bei ordered Liu Feng and Meng Da to occupy Shangyong."

"The eldest thief is deliberately excluding Liu Feng from Jingzhou and Yizhou." Zhou Wen sighed. If he was cruel and playing tricks, Zhou Cang was far behind Cao Cao and Liu Bei. "Is Wang Can's mission going well?"

"Without the need for Wang Can's envoy, the two families have stopped their troops. Listening to Wang Can's words, Liu Bei heard that Cao Jun intends to take Hanzhong, and he was worried about Yizhou, so he gave up Changsha, Lingling, and Guiyang. Sun Quan returned to Hao in return. Pu, and sent troops to Hefei to divide the pressure for Liu Bei. Liu Bei left Fu Shiren and Hao Pu to guard the police, and returned to Yizhou."

Hao Pu used to be the prefect of Lingling County, but now he has been reduced to the deputy general of Yicheng.Zhou Wen shook his head and sighed. "What a good Sun Zhongmou. It's good luck to win the four counties from Cao Cao and Liu Bei while Cao Cao and Liu Bei are busy. Hehe, I'm afraid that he will be fooled and think that Hefei is the best choice. Zhang Liao, the defender of Hefei, is not like Zhu Guangzhi."
