Chapter 281 Cao Cao is coming

Yanzhou. Taishan County. Nanwuyang.

Tao Qian had just passed the seventh day of his first war, and the thick clouds of war were like the towering Mount Tai that was about to fall. The entire Taishan County was breathless. The people of Taishan County, who had just decided less than half a year, were once again in panic.

Tao Ying had to give up his plan to continue to keep mourning for Tao Qian and hurriedly devoted himself to the war against all parties.

"Faced with group attacks, defending everywhere is too passive!"

Put down the battle reports of the various corpses summarized in his hand, Tao Ying stared at the situation chart around Taishan County he had drawn himself, and his slightly anxious eyes frowned.

At present, Taishan County, from north to south, has defensive loopholes almost everywhere in the entire western defense line, from more than 360 miles.

In the northwest, Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei, and Bao Tao, stationed 5,000 troops in Lu County, and stared at Chi County twenty miles away.

Once Chi County, Zhu A lost and defended the empty Qingzhou Plain, the two counties in Jinan will fall into chaos.

In Jibei Schicu, a gang formed by Qiao Mao, the prefect of Dongjun, Li Zan, the prime minister of Dongping, and Liu Bin of the Shiqiu, stationed 20,000 troops, and was ready to move Juping County.

Once the coalition forces break through Juping, Fenggao County in the northern part of Mount Tai will fall into a passive position.

In Nanpingyang, Shanyang County, a coalition army formed by the Dianjun Captain Cao Cao, Rencheng Prime Minister Xu Yan, Shanyang Prefect Yuan Yi, and Jiyin Prefect Wu Zi, stationed 30,000 troops, and selected the direction of the attack in the central part of Taishan County.

Nanwuyang.

Once Nanwuyang is captured, not only will the central and southern Taishan County fall, Tao Qian's coffin also loses its protection.

In Pei County, Yuzhou, Huang Wan, the governor of Yuzhou, ordered that the Yuzhou Anti-Tao coalition was formed by King Chen, Liu Chong, Liang State Prime Minister Zhang Yan, and Pei State Prime Minister Yuan Zhong, stationed 20,000 troops, and waited for the food and grass to prepare, and the Nancheng in the southwest of Taishan County will be launched.

Launch an attack.

In the southeast of Taishan County, the Xuzhou coalition was formed by Zhang Chao, the prefect of Guangling, Xue Li, the prime minister of Pengcheng, Jiang Pei, the prefect of Donghai, and Cao Bao of Xia Pi. He stationed 20,000 troops, and his target was also the Nancheng.

In Langya, Zang Ba's two thousand new soldiers were with the Yinde of Langya, and the three thousand soldiers of Langya King Liu Rong were stationed in Kaiyang; Changxi's 1,500 troops were stationed in Linyi, posing a direct threat to the southeast of Taishan County.

.

"Do I, Tao, should repeat Dong Zhuo's historical mistakes?"

Thinking of the strong and powerful troops in history, Dong Zhuo, who had many soldiers and wide generals, could not resist the siege of all directions, and eventually died, Tao Ying secretly suspected that he could not wait to disperse his troops and seize territory everywhere was a mistake.

"Lord, the pressure in Nancheng is too great. Sun Botai's more than 10,000 troops may be difficult to resist the attack of two troops in Yuzhou and Xuzhou!"

Deng Zhan, who was in charge of the intelligence business of the Xuanjia Army, looked away from Tao Ying's situation chart, looked at Tao Ying, who was anxious and in deep thought, and reminded him to increase the defensive forces in Nancheng.

Previously, there were only 500 Xuanjia Army and 1,500 reserve troops in Nancheng. Tao Ying quietly pulled 10,000 Sun Kang's troops who had originally attacked Linyi from Yangting and entered Nancheng County.

But even so, Deng Zhan is still not optimistic about Nancheng's defense.

"Lord, why don't the Xuzhou Corps continue to divide their troops to support the Nancheng?"

Seeing that Tao Ying was hesitant at the situation chart, Deng Zhan simply made it clear and proposed to mobilize troops from Bu Zhi and Lu Dai's Xuzhou Corps.

At present, around the Nancheng, only the Xuzhou Corps stationed in Yangdu can be adjusted. The troops in other areas cannot quench their near thirst.

"No need!"

Tao Ying looked up, glanced at Deng Zhan with a slightly cold eyes, and then looked down at the situation chart.

"Zicheng, the biggest threat facing Taishan County does not come from Nancheng, but from Nanpingyang!"

Tao Ying understood Deng Zhan’s concerns. Once Nancheng is lost, it will be more difficult to defend Nanwuyang.

But Tao Ying is confident in defending Nancheng. Whether it is Sun Kang who is in a defensive state or Bu Zhi, Lu Dai, and Tao Ying are in an offensive state, they have no doubts about their ability to dismantle the Xuzhou coalition.

Once the threat from the Xuzhou coalition forces is lifted, the Yuzhou coalition forces will be even less afraid.

What Tao Ying is most worried about now is the Nanpingyang coalition led by Cao Cao. Not only is the fierce general in Cao Cao's hands, but Cao Cao himself also makes Tao Yingxin afraid.

"Cao Mengde, you are not here to pick up your wife or son, you are here to massacre the city, right?"

Cao Cao was deceived by He Miao himself. Not only did he kill Bian Bing by mistake, but he instead recorded the hatred on Tao Ying, which made Tao Ying both despise and helpless.

"Compared with He Miao, in your eyes, Cao Mengde, I, Tao Ying, is easy to bully!"

Tao Ying, who became more and more frustrated as she thought about it, immediately put aside all the worries in her heart.

"There is Yin Li in Mount Tai, Juping has Xi Zhicai, Yan Liang, Langya has Bu Zhi, Lu Dai, and Sun Kang in Nancheng. Even if Taishan County is destroyed, why can't I let go of me?"

He looked up and Tao Ying's firm eyes flashed with unyielding fighting spirit.

"Zicheng, immediately notify the Nanwu Yang Order and mobilize all county officials to let the people around Nanwu Yang City leave the village immediately and enter the State of Lu or Mengshan for temporary refuge. No one is allowed to stay in the village."

Looking at Tao Ying whose momentum suddenly changed, Deng Zhan's expression suddenly shook, and a hint of confusion flashed in his eyes.

"Lord, are you worried that the coalition forces will attack the people?"

Deng Zhan immediately remembered the incident of Yuan Shu robbing the grain, and couldn't help but worry about the people outside the city.

"The spring plowing has not yet begun, and there are not many grains stored in various places. Dongping and Shanyang are even empty. Once the coalition forces cut off, they will definitely attack the people!"

Tao Ying did not mention Cao Cao's dark history, and changed his statement to explain it to Deng Zhan.

"I'll go and pass the lord's order!"

Deng Zhan raised his eyebrows and left without hesitation.

Tao Ying specifically mentioned the two counties and states of Dongping and Shanyang, and Deng Zhan naturally knew that Yuan's family exchanged two million stones of grain for Yuan Shu.

"Xu Dan!"

As soon as Deng Zhan left, Tao Ying shouted to Xu Dan outside the door.

"The last one will be here!"

As soon as Tao Ying finished speaking, she wore a hemp ribbon on her head, Xu Dan, wearing a black armor, lifted the curtain and stepped in, bowing to Tao Ying to receive the order.

"Leave a thousand men and horses to protect my father's coffin, and all the rest of the men and horses climbed to the west city to assist in defending the city!"

After the battle of Xia Pi City, the Danyang soldiers were less than 2,000 troops. Now Tao Qian is dead, all of them are inherited by Tao Ying.

"No!"

Xu Dan turned around and left without saying a word.

Xuzhou.Langya.Linyi.

Xuzhou Corps commanded the big tent, military advisor Bu Zhi, commander Lu Dai, general Wu Lan and Langya Admiral Shi Yi and others sat upright.

"The infantry advisor, General Lu, the major general of the Nancheng army was bare, and the two coalition forces of Yuzhou and Xuzhou came in a raging way. General Sun is afraid that he will be unable to support him!"

Wu Lan passed the Xuanjia Army Feather Book in her hand to Yi who attended the special meeting of the Corps, and looked at Bu Zhi and Lu Dai with concern.

"Changfeng defended the high walls of Linyi, and there were Zang Ba in Kaiyang, Yinde and local surnames, powerful private soldiers, tens of thousands of slaves, and may be difficult to break for a while. It is better to send troops to support General Sun first."

Nodded slightly to Wu Lan, Bu Zhi, with a calm expression, did not make any statement about his proposal at the first time. His deep eyes flashed over Lu Dai's face, who was in deep thought, and fell on Yi Yi who was quickly browsing Yu Shu.

"It's the admiral. What are your opinions on the dangers of Nancheng?"

The one who "sells oneself to pay off his debts" was that Yi entrusted with important tasks as soon as Tao Ying was taken down. Bu Zhi never doubted Tao's willfulness; and it was Yi's way of entering Langya County to suppress bandits and surrender. Not only Bu Zhi looked at him with admiration,

Even the arrogant Wu Lan has to admire it.

"General Tao only drew General Sun's troops to defend Nancheng, but did not move one soldier and one soldier of the Xuzhou Corps, who was close to him. He believed that the infantry and military advisors had a better way to solve the dangers of Nancheng!"

Shi Yi looked up and glanced at the calm Bu Zhi, and continued to look down at the Yushu in his hand, while replying Bu Zhi in a faint tone.

"If the Xuzhou Corps heads south, Linyi can be monitored and besieged!"

After taking the Yu Shu for a few short breaths, Yi had already understood the situation facing Taishan County. With just a glance, he knew that Bu Zhi had a plan to understand the circumstance.

"No, it was the admiral who followed the corps south and took over Jiqiu!"

Shiyi can see through Bu Zhi's intention. Bu Zhi doesn't find it strange at all, but it is strange how Tao Ying sees through Shiyi with military talent.

"The lord once said that Chang Xi has repeatedly said that he is a villain. There is no need to deal with a villain. It is enough to have a simple and empty article!"

It was Yi's point-breaking, Bu Zhi was confident, and Wu Lan, who realized it later, swept away the worries on her face, and was immediately replaced by a hint of curiosity.

"How will the military advisor lure Changfeng?"

This time Bu Zhi did not answer, and Yi didn't say a word. Lu Dai, who had not spoken for a long time, stood up.

"Military advisor, you will send a letter to Changxi. I will rectify the troops and go south immediately and take down Donghai County for Changxi!"

Shi Yi also stood up, followed Lu Dai's footsteps and walked out of the big tent, and quickly headed towards the headquarters' tent.

"Are you going to surround Wei and save Zhao?"

...

"Woo..."

An hour later, the Xuanjia Army camp outside Linyi City came out of the trumpet of attack, resounding throughout the sky.

"Boom..."

Accompanied by the sound of trumpets, a thunderous sound of horse hooves sounded, and thousands of war horses galloped past the city, like thousands of horses galloping. The earth was trembling, and Linyi City was trembling.

"Hiss!"

Chang Feng, who was standing on the top of the city, suddenly shivered.
