Qingzhou.

Linzi City.

The scholar Li Sheng was riding a chariot and walking on the street. From time to time, he looked up at the shops on both sides of the street and the dense crowd.

The shops are open and the business is good.

Passers-by and people all had rosy faces and smiles. They were rarely skinny and had a look of bitterness and grudges.

All industries are opened and the people live and work in peace and contentment.

"Although Cao Cao and Sun Jian were well promoted, what did Zhang Xiu exil the Han lord and had the world to be a rebel. However, living in the Han dynasty is a different world from the Liang dynasty."

Li Sheng thought to himself.

In this short period of time, the governor of Qingzhou Mi Zhu did a good job. He knew Zhang Xiu's character well and used his decisive style to attack the illegal tyrants and high-ranking clans in Qingzhou with thunderous means.

This made the big families and wealthy families in Qingzhou wail everywhere, but on the contrary, the people and poor scholars were happy and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.

The most amazing thing is that Zhang Xiu pacified Qingzhou and almost had no blood. Unlike killing other places, he bleed thousands of miles away.

This made the Liang Dynasty easily acceptable in Qingzhou.

Furthermore, since the end of the Han Dynasty, it was not only the Yellow Turban Rebellion, but also many sporadic rebellions before the Yellow Turban Rebellion. In addition, Emperor Ling of Han sold official positions and titles, the people were suffering.

Now the Liang army is strong, the politics is clear and the thieves are hiding. Zhang Xiu has occupied 677% of the world's land and population, and a unified dynasty is about to be formed.

The people have been doing enough in troubled times and are very yearning for prosperous times.

This led to the fact that although Qingzhou had shortly been in favor of the Liang Dynasty, the people's hearts were on Liang. The foundation of the Liang Dynasty in Qingzhou was stronger than that of Jizhou.

Not only Qingzhou, but Xuzhou Governor Chen Deng did a better job.

Qing, Xu, Qing, Xu have never been separated.

Temporary palace.

Zhang Xiu knelt on the imperial throne, and the great advisers under his command were listed on both sides. Zhang Xiu looked at the mountain of letters on the desk, and looked happy. He smiled and looked up to everyone and said, "This year, except for the drought in Yizhou, most of the rest of the places have good weather. The prime minister reported that the granaries in various places cannot hold grain anymore, so they have to step up the construction of granaries, otherwise the grain will rot. In addition, Zhuge Liang, the governor of Jizhou, promoted new wheat and rice, and did a very good job. This year, the grain output in Jizhou was really shocking."

"I have ordered the prime minister to distribute new grain to various governors, so that the people can farm."

"It's no longer a problem of insufficient food, but a problem of endless food. It's really a headache."

The ministers were all talented. Seeing that Zhang Xiu was in a very good mood, they couldn't help but laugh and cooperate.

Of course, they were in a good mood. As great counselors, they gathered around Zhang Xiu for different purposes.

Cai Mao was to become an official and promote his progress.

Fa was raised by Zhang Xiu, and he devoted all his talents and knowledge to Zhang Xiu.

In addition, Ju Su, Xun You, Sima Yi and others all felt sorry for the world, hoping that the world would be pacified as soon as possible and that people would live and work in peace and prosperity.

Their goals are different, but they all pursue the result of a unified unification.

Now that the advantage is in Liang Dynasty, their mood is of course also happy.

"Now the soldiers are sophisticated and the food is enough. It's time to destroy Cao Cao. The world is not from the Han Dynasty, nor from Cao Cao or Sun Jian. But from my own people."

Zhang Xiu sneered, then clapped his hands. Two soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army brought a screen with a map hanging and placed it in the center.

Zhang Xiu said: "Now Cao Cao has no dangerous place to defend, so he can only divide his troops to guard all sides."

"Liu Bei is in Jinan County."

"Cao Cao is in Dongjun."

"Xiahou Dun is in Shanyang County."

"Cao Ren guards the Guandu."

"Xiahou Yuan guarded Chen Liu."

"Yu Jin is in Changshe."

"Le Jin is in Zhongmu."

"Li Dian is in Yingchuan."

"The Cao army's elite soldiers and powerful generals are like a big net, protecting Yuzhou and Yanzhou tightly, and I will wait for me to attack."

"Do you have any strategies to defeat the enemy?" At the end of his speech, Zhang Xiu looked up at everyone, with a little smile on his face.

"There is no strategy to defeat the enemy. But I have a worry." Fa Zheng said to Zhang Xiu seriously with both hands.

"What worries?" Zhang Xiu asked curiously.

"Cao Cao defended Yanzhou and Yuzhou as solid as a rock. If the royal army wants to attack Yanzhou and Yuzhou, they can only break through one city after another, and there is no other way. This is a war of attrition. As long as we avoid the decisive battle of the main force, Cao Cao will not have a chance of winning at all."

"But on the other hand, if Cao Cao wants to win, he will score our troops and then defeat them one by one. He has tens of tiger, leopard cavalry and leopard cavalry in his hand, and there are probably 20,000 to 30,000. Cao Cao will definitely find a way to use this killer weapon in his hand."

The light flashed in Fa Zheng's eyes and said in a deep voice.

The heroes have similar views, and the war has come to this point. The Liang army and the Cao army are not ordinary people and have no flaws to exploit.

Cheng Yu, Cao Cao wanted to use the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry as a final fight, but how could Fa Zheng and others not see it?

The Liang army is now powerful, like a giant elephant. Unless Zhang Xiu suddenly dies or Cao Cao can win in the field, there is no possibility of failure.

For example, in history, Cao Cao's Battle of Guandu and Yuan Shao's Battle of Jieqiao were all defeated by the weak.

A wise man expects to win, but he expects to lose.

Fa Zheng saw this and reminded Zhang Xiu first.

"I understand." Zhang Xiu certainly understood this truth, but he didn't care. If Cao Cao decides the victory or defeat with the tiger and leopard cavalry, then let's fight.

Hua Xiong, Hu Cheer's cavalry is not weak, even if it is not possible. His three armies guards are really elite and powerful. If 10,000 people are against 10,000 people, he will not be afraid.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xiu turned to look at Sima Yi.

In history, Kong Ming's army was rigorous and had few soldiers and horses, but they were extremely elite. Kong Ming wanted to fight in the field to win, but the old Sima thief defended without fighting, which made Kong Ming end in hatred.

However, Cao Cao was not Kong Ming, and I was not Sima's old thief.

Sima Yi was very keen. Since he was detained last time, he had been afraid of Zhang Xiu. Seeing Zhang Xiu looking at him, he couldn't help but feel shocked.

But soon Zhang Xiu took back his eyes, and he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

What was the emperor thinking in his heart? What did it have to do with me?

"Shim Xu Huang led his army 50,000 to attack Guandu."

"Shi Shici leads 50,000 troops to attack Chenliu."

"Sorry Zhang He to lead his army of 50,000 to attack Jinan."

"I will attack Shanyang County by 200,000 elite troops."

"Zhang Liao went out of Huzhu and attacked Zhongmu, Changshe, Yingchuan."

After Zhang Xiu looked at the map carefully, he felt that he had only strong attacks but no plans. The last battle of the Central Plains War should be so vigorous. He couldn't help but stand up and said loudly.

"promise."

Cai Mao immediately remembered it in his heart and replied with a loud promise.

In addition to attacking the Central Plains, the Liang army also had constant contacts with Zhao Yun in Yizhou and Huang Zhong in Nanyang. They would cooperate in sending troops.

However, Huang Zhong had few troops and could only defend Nanyang to prevent Sun Jian from leading his army to Luoyang north.

The Liang army's attack time was different. Among them, Zhang Xiu personally led a 200,000 army and attacked Shanyang County on the fifth day of November.

The army set out from Linzi and divided into the front, central and rear teams, which stretched for dozens of miles, with flags all over the mountains and fields, and armored soldiers headed forward one after another.

Zhang Xiu himself was in the central army and arrived outside Shanyang City that morning.

Zhang Xiu rode his horse into the pre-built central army camp and met with the front commander Pang De. After the two of them met, they all entered the tent, and some generals and counselors were followed.

"What's going on in Shanyang City now?"

Zhang Xiu came to the coach's throne and sat down, looked up and asked Pang De.

"Report to Your Majesty. There were originally 50,000 Xiahou Dun's guards in Shanyang City. Cao Cao learned that we were the main attack on Shanyang. He also sent Cao Hong to lead 30,000 troops into the city."

Pang De bowed and replied.

"That's 80,000 elite soldiers." Zhang Xiu nodded, and a solemn expression appeared on his face.

Although Liang's strength in this battle has an absolute advantage, the opponent is also quite good.

Xiahou Dun and Cao Hong are famous generals of the Cao army, and the two and Cao Cao are like brothers and sisters, and there is no possibility of betrayal.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Xiu looked up and said to Pang De, "Brother, I will assign Hua Xiong to you. You will take 50,000 elite troops to Juye City in the north to guard against Cao Cao in the East County."

"The remaining 150,000 troops are divided into three teams."

"Fifty thousand elite troops were commanded by Ma Chao and camped in the south of Shanyang City and attacked Nancheng."

"I will station 60,000 elite troops in the east of the city and attack the east city."

"The remaining 40,000 troops are commanded by Gao Shun. They are stationed in Huanwu Mountain in the east, thinking that they are behind the team."

Military tactics, ten times the siege of the city.
