Chapter 359: In the spring of 6 years, Chu Zi tried to attack me (2)

Latest website: Gongziwen obediently handed over the accounting books of the two counties of Jiyin County and Sanyang County to Chutian to indicate that he had not transferred the gold and silver of the two counties without permission.

Because of Gongziwen and Cao Cao's successive battles, Jiyin County has a population of less than two million. These people either died in battle or fled to other counties because of the war.

Sanyang County is similar to Jiyin County, and its population is not as high as Jiyin County. Although the wars are not as frequent as Jiyin County, only one million people remain.

Gongziwen is very cooperative, since he chose to seek refuge in Chutian, he left no room.

Chutian repayed the princes who took the initiative to take refuge in him, and still appointed Gongziwen as the prefect of Jiyin County and enjoyed the treatment of the prefect. As long as Gongziwen has accumulated prestige in the Chutian forces, he will not be a problem as a governor in the future.

Gongziwen was the first person to help Chu Tian actively suppress Cao Cao. Although Gongziwen has repeatedly failed in battle, he has caused a lot of trouble to Cao Cao, and the credit for containing Cao Cao is definitely not small.

In order to guarantee his loyalty, Gong Ziwen ceded Pang Juan to Chu Tian and lifted his relationship with Pang Juan.

The relationship between Pang Juan and Gongziwen is equivalent to that between Li Xiuning and Xia Liang. Xia Liang once wanted to cede Li Xiuning to Chu Tian, ​​but Chu Tian refused.

Pang Juan, Chu Tian must take it, after all, Gongziwen is not someone who can be trusted absolutely.

Chu Tian could see Pang Juan's attributes, including the heavy infantry "Wei Wuzu" similar to the "Swallow Jia".

[Name]: Pang Juan

[Talent]: Diamond Commander (Infantry Department)

[Level]: 61

[Identity]: Famous general of Wei State during the Warring States Period, apprentice of Guiguzi

【Loyalty】: 70

[Commander]: 88 (upper limit 89)

[Strength]: 80 (upper limit 82)

[Intelligence]: 79 (upper limit 81)

[Politics]: 53 (upper limit 55)

[Charm]: 30

[Phase]: Arrogance

[Favorite degree]: 55

[Feature 1]: Guigu Art of War-Incomplete (S-level feature, under the guidance of Guiguzi, quite satisfactory, due to personality defects, unable to integrate. Own army attack power +10%, defense power +10%, morale recovery +10%)

[Feature 2]: Breaking the city (A-level feature, attack power +12% when your army is attacking the city)

[Feature 3]: Underestimate the enemy (negative feature, when encountering a counselor with an intelligence of 92 or more, it is easy to get caught, and the probability of being ambush increases)

[Special Arms]: Wei Wuzu (Heavy Infantry of Tier Seven, the upper limit is 10,000)

Pang Juan's attributes are pretty good, almost close to the king-level commander, but he has a fatal negative characteristic of "underestimating the enemy", and he will be counted to death when facing top-level counselors and first-class counselors.

If it were not for Xunyou Liang to send Guo Jia to Pang Juan as a military adviser, Pang Juan would be restrained by Xunyou.

No wonder Pang Juan faced Cao Cao, often losing more and winning less...

Gongziwen's appointment of Pang Juan, who has defects, as the main general, can block Cao Cao for such a long time, which shows that his ability is not bad.

No matter what, as long as Pang Juan is assigned a qualified military division, Pang Juan, who has Wei Wu's pawn, can also be alone.

Pang Juan's abilities are not top-notch, but his arms are really powerful, comparable to Le Yi's 10,000 Yanjia. Of course, Pang Juan is not Le Yi's opponent if he really wants to fight.

Wei Wuzu has only seven ranks because of its huge number. Pang Juan’s 10,000 Wei soldiers were only part of it. Wu Qi’s Wei Wu soldiers were terrible. Wu Qi had 50,000 Wei soldiers, 40,000 more than Le Yi’s Yan Jia!

Pang Juan joined in, so that Chu Tian, ​​who lacked an infantry commander, had another available general.

"How many soldiers and horses are there in Jiyin County and Shanyang County?"

After Chu Tian annexed the Gongziwen forces, he immediately counted the soldiers and horses of the Gongziwen forces.

Gongzi Wen Ruzhi said: "Wei Wuzu only has 412 men left. The remaining soldiers and horses are about 50,000. Most of them are low-level troops. There are also 2,000 ordinary heavy infantry and 500 heavy cavalry. In addition to 50,000 soldiers and horses, there are also There are thirty thousand courageous villagers to assist in the transportation of food."

Gongziwen is also a ruthless person.

Chu Tian looked at the population of Gongziwen, and the two counties added together, only three million people were left, and they still maintained fifty thousand professional soldiers and thirty thousand Xiangyong. You must know that professional soldiers are different from Xiang Yong. The more professional soldiers, the heavier the burden on the people. Gongziwen fought Cao Cao for several years, and the number of soldiers killed in the battle was terrifying.

Even so, Gongziwen still maintains a large regular army.

If it were not for the consumption of Gongziwen and Cao Cao, which gave Chu Tian a big advantage, Gongziwen could also become a prince.

"Master!"

Xu Rong and Hua Xiong, two Xiliang faction Wu, will meet Chutian in the future. Dong Zhuo is dead, and they are unlikely to betray Chu Tian. They were sent by Chu Tian to assist Gongziwen to contain Cao Cao. They have not seen Chu Tian for a long time.

Chu Tian was still satisfied with the performance of Xu Rong and Hua Xiong. With Xu Rong and Hua Xiong's abilities, it was rare for him to delay Cao Cao, who had already experienced many battles.

Cao Cao was no longer the hot-blooded young man who had run rampant. From the Yellow Turban Rebellion to the crusade against Dong Zhuo and the battle for Yanzhou and Mobei, now Cao Cao has grown up through the battlefield and has become a veritable imperial commander.

As the commander-in-chief who fought the most tough battles, the most army battles, and a very high winning rate in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, Cao Cao was actually a terrifying opponent. It's just that Cao Cao has been restrained, and this has not developed.

In other words, Xu Rong and Hua Xiong are facing more and more difficulties with Cao Cao, and Xu Rong is far from the opponent of Cao Cao. If Chu Tian didn't intervene personally, Cao Cao would rise again.

Xu Rong counted the number of people to Chu Tian: "There are only 6,000 Qingqi left in the Xiliang Army, and more than 500 Xiliang Iron Horses."

Gongziwen has 50,000 people, and Xu Rong’s Xiliang Army has only more than 6,000.

The Northern Army’s five schools added a group of new recruits, and the average combat effectiveness decreased, but the number increased to 15,000. Wei Qing recruited 3,000 harps, and the reconnaissance corps was replenished to 10,000. This batch of supplementary recruits directly used the teleportation array to come to the Yanzhou battlefield.

About 10,000 recruits were recruited and consumed tens of thousands of taels of silver. In order to eliminate Cao Cao's forces, he would not hesitate to consume tens of thousands of silver.

All the legions assembled in Jiyin County have more than 80,000 people.

There were about 40,000 Leyi Corps attacking East County from Jibei Kingdom.

The two teams total more than 120,000 soldiers.

With more than 120,000 people attacking the two prefectures of Cao Cao and less than 100,000 people, Chutian has a military advantage in some parts, and at the same time, there is also the Xiangyong convened by Gongziwen to transport grain and grass.

Guo Jia was sent here to assist Pang Juan, when he returned to Chu Tian and replaced Lu Su as the army.

Lu Su can also govern a county, and Guo Jia is a simple counselor.

Chu Tian joined the army with Fang Xuanling, Guo Jia, and Cao Xu, and used 120,000 soldiers and horses to destroy Cao Cao as soon as possible.

"Cao Mengde is a famous coach. If I can drive him, I can win the world."

Chu Tian praised Cao Cao.

If no commanders of other dynasties were recruited, Cao Cao was almost invincible at the end of the Han Dynasty. It was difficult for Cao Cao to confront Zhou Yu on the Yangtze River, but Zhou Yu was far behind Cao Cao when he fought in the north.

"This time, Pang Juan acted as the vanguard, advancing towards Puyang. The cavalry was divided into two units and fought in a roundabout way to quickly defeat Cao Cao. If Xiahou Dun from Juancheng sent troops to attack our Liangdao, then a cavalry would return to the division and defeat Xiahou Dun."

After simple discussions with Fang Xuanling, Guo Jia, and Cao Xu, Chu Tian continued to fight Cao Cao with the Pang Juan Army as the main force.

There were 50,000 troops in the Pang Juan army. Chu Tian separated 10,000 cavalry and gave them command to Wei Qing. Wei Qing's Yulin Army consisted of three thousand Yulin cavalry and ten thousand Yanzhou light cavalry. With Wei Qing's bonus, even ordinary Yanzhou light cavalry can explode with powerful combat effectiveness.

The remaining army of Pang Juan, mainly infantry and crossbowmen, formed the third main infantry army-the army of soldiers.

After Zhou Yafu’s defensive corps and Le Yi’s offensive corps, the Army Soldiers became another main force of the infantry department, with Wei Wushou as the core.

"Young Master Zhao, you are responsible for transporting food."

"Yes."

Zhao Gongzi gave up his status as a lord and followed the line of civil servants. He probably knew that Chu Tian didn't want to see him in charge and becoming a civil servant, which was already a good way out.

"Chu Zimou has arrived in Yanzhou!"

"Is Chu Zimou finally here?"

Cao Cao's influence, the people's heart is panic, the fame of the princes Chu Zimou is majestic in Yanzhou, everyone hears Chu Zimou's reputation, they are shaken by it.

This may be the most powerful enemy Cao Cao encountered.

Chu Tian used two imperial commanders at a time, one was the imperial commander of the infantry system Le Yi, and the other was the imperial commander of the cavalry system Wei Qing. They attacked from Jibei Kingdom and Jiyin County respectively.

Chu Tian himself can also be used as an imperial cavalry commander.

Joan of Arc is one of the few imperial heroes in France, and Zhao Yun is an imperial general...

Generals such as Hua Mulan, Pang Juan, and Tai Shici were not easy to deal with.

"If you lose the battle, you will retreat to Chen Liu and join Yu Zhou Mu Shu Tang."

Cao Cao swears once again and can only be forced to fight with Chu Zimou and defend the East County. After the fall of East County, Cao Cao was left with Chen Liujun.

The hardest hits in Yanzhou are not Taishan County and Jibei, but Dongjun and Chenliu. As long as Dongjun and Chen Liu are taken down, Yanzhou will announce the start.

"Where are the fifty thousand soldiers Yuan Benchu ​​promised me?"

Cao Cao asked Xu You, who was on his mission and stranded in Puyang, about Yuan Shao's reinforcements.

Yuan Shao promised to assist Cao Cao with 50,000 soldiers and horses. Only then did Cao Cao have the courage to continue fighting.

"The fifty thousand high-sold soldiers have arrived in Baima County."

"Let Gao Su be cautious, I suspect that Chu Zimou will use cavalry to intercept Gao Su again."

Cao Cao had seen the power of Chutian's cavalry in the Battle of Mobei, and he had lingering fears about it.

Yuan Shao sent to support Cao Cao this time by Lanling King Gaosu, a cavalry general who crossed the Yellow River to support Puyang. At the same time, Yuan Shao sent Fengji as a military division to assist Gao Su and at the same time play the role of supervising the army to prevent Gao Su from taking away tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.

"Yuan Benchu ​​is about to own the entire Jizhou, but I only have two counties left. It's really time and fate."

Cao Cao thought that Yuan Shao's power was developing well, and he was forced to ask Yuan Shao for reinforcements, and couldn't help feeling. Cao Cao was once more powerful than Yuan Shao, and eventually became Yuan Shao's younger brother.

In Baima County, Lanling Wang Gaosu and Yuan Shao's army master Feng Ji was ordered to come to the rescue, and fifty thousand Jizhou soldiers entered Yanzhou.

Gao Su put on a copper mask with a hideous face that obscured his appearance.

Because of his handsome appearance, King Lanling wore a mask every time he entered battle in order to intimidate the enemy.

"It is said that Chu Zimou is brave and invincible, but Chu Zimou has a mere Cao Aman, and he has not been able to eliminate it for two years. It is estimated that it is only a vain name."

Feng Ji successfully crossed the Yellow River and found that Chu Zimou had not sent anyone to stop him and Gao Su's regiment in Baima County, and could not help underestimating the Xuzhou regiment.

The fifty thousand Jizhou army marched towards Puyang. Once the fifty thousand Jizhou Army and Cao Cao's thirty thousand defenders converge, it will be more difficult to capture Puyang City.

"The Jizhou Army has crossed the Yellow River. The main commander may be Gaosu, the king of Lanling. The Gaosu Army has marched for nearly 20 miles with white horses, including about 10,000 cavalry."

Hua Mulan reported to Chutian the marching route of the Gaosu Legion, with a war eagle still on her shoulder. The route of the Lanling King Corps has been spotted.

"Yuan Shao can be considered loyal, so he sent a support army to support Cao Cao."

Chu Tian rides on a Dawan horse, looking down on the plains around the white horse.

The Yellow River has been diverted many times in history. At this time, Baima and Puyang were south of the Yellow River and they crossed the Yellow River, which was the sphere of influence of Yuan Shao, Hebei.

Historically, the white horse was where Guan Yu raided Yan Liang.

This time, Chu Tian will compete against Yuan Shao’s military commander Lanling Wang Gaosu, and Yuan Shao’s military commander Fengji.

Fang Xuanling said: "Yuan Shao is indecisive after all. Yuan Shao went north to attack Hebei, and went south to support Cao Cao. The result would only be insufficient for the two groups. At most, only one can win, and the other one will be defeated. More What's more, both sides will lose. If Yuan Shao rushes to the south with all the troops of Jizhou, I am afraid that the lord will have to avoid his edge temporarily."

"It's true."

Chu Tian couldn't comment.

If Yuan Shaoqing crossed the Yellow River with all the troops of Jizhou, Chutian would be under greater pressure.

It was just that Yuan Shao was greedy and wanted to get Jibei, but he was reluctant to give up Cao Cao's chess piece, so he only sent Gao Su and Feng Ji to the side teachers.

"Yuan Shao's internal disputes are quite serious. Jizhou and Yuzhou are fighting, and Zhao Long, what role does he play in Yuan Shao's forces?"

When Chu Tian thought of Yuan Shao's internal complicated power struggle, he couldn't help having a headache.

Yuan Shao’s internal civil servants had already run over each other, and there was a powerful alien prince Zhao Long who had been willing to give in to Yuan Shao To say that Zhao Long had no ambitions and was willing to drive Yuan Shao to death. Chu Tian didn't believe it.

Perhaps Zhao Long is waiting for the opportunity.

Chu Tian temporarily gave up speculating on Zhao Long's intentions: "No matter what Yuan Shao's forces are, he chooses to come to support Cao Cao, so he will destroy it!"

Chu Tian waved his hand and a large number of cavalry appeared. This time he was going to raid King Gaosu of Lanling!

There are three cavalry battalions in the Five Northern Schools, plus the Tiger Ben Army. There are about 10,000 horses. Joan of Arc is holding the battle flag and commanding the Yueqi Camp and Changshui Camp of the Five Northern Schools. She glanced at her lord intentionally or unintentionally, as if Chu Tian no longer regarded her as cannon fodder.

Hua Mulan's Detective Corps and Wei Qing's Yulin Corps began to roundabout, Xu Rong's Xiliang Corps marched towards the White Horse, cutting off the back.

A large number of elite cavalry gathered around the Lanling King's Legion, and Chu Tian, ​​who was a famous general crusher, went into battle again.

A hunting began.
