Five Hundred and Ninetieth IX More Craziness
At this time, Liaoxi was very dangerous. Yuan Shao's army advanced violently and had captured half of Liaoxi County.
Liaoxi County was taken by Zhang Yu earlier, and a relatively complete defense was established.
The 60,000 defenders in western Liaoning relied on their solid city defenses to fight back and forth.
The see-saw of one city after another.
But even so, Yuan Shao's army occupied a large city in three days and a small city in one day.
In fact, in some counties, it is no problem to fight the enemy inside for five or six days, but Zhang Yu and his generals will not do that. Generally, they will retreat after exhausting the defense materials in the city.
Zhang Yu told them that if the land is lost and people are lost, all people and land are lost; if people are saved and land is lost, all people and land will remain.
This is what a great man in later generations said, and it was used by Zhang Yu's men at this time, regardless of the gains and losses of a city or a place, and retreated after killing a large number of enemies.
The fall of half of Liaoxi County also pitted Yuan Shao and his army of more than 40,000.
Zhang Yu's army tried to delay the enemy's advance speed while saving themselves.
A few days later, Zhang Yu received news on the grassland that Yuan Shu and Sun Ce had fought against each other in the Jiangdong area.
"Everyone really wants to jump up and take a bite. This Yuan Shu and Sun Ce have already started gathering soldiers and horses, and they want to eat me at this time, but I don't know if they have such a mouth."
In fact, when Zhang Yu received the news, the Jiangdong area had already started a war, and the news Zhang Yu received was that they were gathering troops.
The geographical distance is too far, and it has been a few days since the news reached here. Zhang Yu received the news from Jiangdong a few days ago, but he is very confident in Jiangdong, and it is no problem to block the enemy's attack.
Zhang Yu and his men continued on their way. They headed southeast without changing their original plan.
Two days later, they were already approaching Youzhou. At this time, Zhang Yu had fully understood the situation on the battlefield in Youzhou.
Yu Fuluo surrounded Shenyang City, but did not attack other places, and the attack on Shenyang City was not very strong. Yu Fuluo was still imagining that Baltu would solve Zhang Yu, and then lead the army to join him.
When Zhang Yu died, he would have a large number of reinforcements,
Shenyang City can be easily attacked.
In the west of Liaoxi, Yuan Shao assembled an army of 300,000 troops and continued to attack, taking two-thirds of the cities in Liaoxi County.
Zhang Yu's army was "defeated", and a city could not withstand it for three days.
But Zhang Yu knew that it was nothing but the land that lost the land.
They don't have enough troops in western Liaoning, and losing land is the right way to go.
Lose the land and slowly gather more troops.
But Yuan Shao's battle line was further stretched.
Zhang Yu continued to go south, and the situation kept changing.
"Report, my lord, urgent information."
When another urgent message came, Zhang Yu asked the soldiers to come forward to speak. At first, Zhang Yu thought that something was breached or that Yuan Shu, Sun Ce and others launched an attack, but he didn't expect it to be an imperial decree.
"My lord, the emperor Liu Xie issued an order saying that my lord died in battle on the frontier, and I will be named a general." The soldier called.
The soldiers did not report it because the content was a bit taboo. This is a rule, even if the sky falls, Zhang Yu's soldiers will follow the rules.
Several generals looked at Zhang Yu strangely, Zhang Yu was clearly alive and well.
"Cao Cao is really a traitor, and he tripped me at this time." Zhang Yu quickly understood the intention.
As soon as the imperial decree came out, those who didn't know really thought Zhang Yu was dead.
Zhang Yu was not worried about Liaodong, because Liaodong had already received definite information about him, and they already knew that Zhang Yu was still alive.
But in the Jiangdong area, although the news has been sent back, it will definitely arrive a few days later than the imperial decree, and I don't know what will happen during the blank period of these few days.
But Zhang Yu also believed that even so, Jiang Dong would definitely be able to hold on and would never be breached.
Approaching the battlefield, Zhang Yu calmed down instead.
"Master, why did you stop?" Zhang Yu suddenly stopped and ordered the whole army to rest, which made several generals a little confused.
Zhang Yu didn't answer, but arranged for the soldiers to rest first.
After the soldiers settled down, Zhang Yu called several generals over.
"On the surface, the Huns are the most powerful, with an army of 400,000, but we don't have to worry about Shenyang City. Even if we can't win, we won't lose. And the fall of Western Liaoning is a matter of time. We have to think about how to get it back in the future." Zhang Yu said .
Zhang Yu's words let them have a brief understanding of the situation, and at the same time told them that he was not worried about the Huns' army.
Zhang Yu continued: "When we attack the Xiongnu, Yuan Shao will not be afraid and will not stop, but will intensify it. At that time, the situation we have to face will be more difficult, and our attack on Yuan Shao will definitely scare the Xiongnu and Yuan Shao. "
The reason is very simple, now that the Xiongnu are so powerful, Zhang Yu doesn't care about it?
This is how big the hole card is.
The Huns will be afraid that this is a trap, especially if their 300,000 troops have been trapped.
And Yuan Shao would also be afraid. Not only did Zhang Yu not die, but his troops were still there. Was it a scene they played with the Huns?
Therefore, instead of rescuing Shenyang City, Zhang Yu went to attack Yuan Shao. In this way, he immediately regained the initiative.
"My lord, you want us to sneak attack Yuan Shao? No problem, we promise to kill them, so that none of their troops in western Liaoning can escape." Dian Wei was happy when he heard that.
Zhang Yu shook his head, his eyes were deep, he pondered for a while and said: "We are not going to sneak attack Yuan Shao's attacking the rear of the Liaoxi army, we are going to directly invade Yuan Shao and invade his territory."
Several people were taken aback by Zhang Yu's words. Zhang Yu was very surprised to attack Yuan Shao instead of the Xiongnu. If Zhang Yu hadn't explained it, they would have thought Zhang Yu was crazy.
But now, Zhang Yu wanted to directly attack Yuan Shao's territory, instead of attacking Liaoxi and cutting off their retreat, he was even crazier and wanted to invade Yuan Shao.
I have to say that Zhang Yu's ideas are very unconstrained.
In this situation, most people will attack the Huns to resolve the crisis.
And Zhang Yu not only wants to attack Yuan Shao, but also directly invades Yuan Shao's territory, how crazy it is.
Zhang Yu also has confidence. First, his own army knows that it can definitely stop the enemy at present.
Second, Zhang Yu didn't ignore Yuan Shao's 200,000 troops attacking Liaoxi County, but cut off their retreat. If possible, he would ambush them once or twice on the way. There are not many soldiers in Youzhou. Ma can compete with Zhang Yu, if he doesn't take the opportunity to take Youzhou, let alone when.
If you want to do it, you have to be the one with the most votes, and the ones who come are crazy.
Before starting, Zhang Yu had to give a few orders to the fighting army, exchange news, make sure everything was safe, and then start.
After discussing the plan with several generals, Zhang Yu and the others just waited to start taking action. The strongest system to dominate the Three Kingdoms
