After the results of the battle came out, the atmosphere in Liu Bei's tent became solemn. They lost 30,000 elites in one battle. Their army of hundreds of thousands could not experience several such battles. You must know that those who came to Yuzhou were already all of Liu Bei's elite forces. , but as far as Daqian was concerned, they just defeated Daqian's Yang Feng, and with Daqian's strength, they could dispatch several generals like Yang Feng!
Especially since Dagan's battle losses were less than half of theirs, this is the most terrible thing. Liu Bei's 300,000 troops can only use up Dagan's 150,000 horses at most, but the remaining army of Dagan is still enough to pacify the entire Jiangnan, and Even if they add Cao Cao's men and horses, they can't defeat Thunder God!
Seeing such results, Yuan Ji said: "General, we can't continue fighting. If we continue to fight, our army will perish on the way to attack. Now that we have severely damaged Yang Feng's army, Yanzhou's Wang Guojun will definitely lead the army." To support Yang Feng, our strategic goal has been completed, and now we must return to Nanyang County to defend on the spot, otherwise, Huanglong in Luoyang City will cut off our retreat!"
Liu Bei also said decisively: "The whole army retreats!"
Then the hundreds of thousands of troops in Liu Bei's hands began to return to Nanyang County, so when Yang Feng inquired about Liu Bei's news, he had already discovered that Liu Bei's army was about to enter Jingzhou!
At this time, the 100,000-strong army led by Wang Guojun also joined Yang Feng!
When he saw Yang Feng, he was surprised and said, "Liu Bei defeated your army?"
Yang Feng had 80,000 troops in his hands, including 50,000 cavalry, but he was defeated like this!
Yang Feng said helplessly: "I fell into Liu Bei's trick. Guan Yu from Yangzhou actually fought his way through Runan County to Xu County to support Liu Bei. It was because of Guan Yu's arrival that I was killed by surprise!"
Wang Guojun asked: "Where is Liu Bei? How many counties have been captured in Yuzhou now?"
Yang Feng said strangely: "I have no idea what Liu Bei was thinking. After he defeated me, he immediately retreated. Now his vanguard is about to enter Jingzhou!"
At this time, Xu Huang on the side said: "Is it because we severely damaged the Jingzhou Army and caused Liu Bei heavy losses? He knew that our reinforcements had arrived and did not dare to stay in Yuzhou anymore!"
A few people thought that this was the time!
Wang Guojun sneered: "You have killed so many of my soldiers and still want to escape. Liu Bei is just wishful thinking!"
He looked at Yang Feng and said: "Let's merge together and attack Nanyang County directly. Huang Long has already led an army of 50,000 to attack Nanyang County. Adding the troops in our hands, the number of soldiers attacking Nanyang County this time exceeds 200,000. Look. Can Liu Bei defeat us this time?"
Of course Yang Feng wanted revenge, and immediately nodded in agreement, so the two armies merged into one place, and the 170,000-strong army attacked Nanyang County in a mighty manner!
Qingzhou, Beihai County.
The news of Yang Feng's defeat in the Battle of Yuzhou reached Cao Cao, making the whole Qingzhou very excited. After so many years, they finally defeated Lei Gong once! Cao Cao immediately ordered to speed up the assembly of Qingzhou and Xuzhou armies, not allowing Liu Bei's Jingzhou The army fights alone!
It's a pity that Cao Cao and the others were happy too early. Within a few days, it was reported that Jizhou had mobilized 300,000 troops to attack Qingzhou. Lei Gong's confidant general Wang Lei had arrived at the Jizhou camp. The war between Daqian and Qingzhou was about to begin! This gave Cao Cao brought great pressure. He personally led the elites of Qingzhou to station along the Yellow River, preparing to resist the Thunder Lord!
Opposite Cao Cao, the number of Jizhou troops is increasing, and the shouts of killing from daily training can even reach the south bank of the Yellow River, and Daqian's detective horses often enter Qingzhou to inquire for intelligence.
In the summer, the Yellow River can still be considered a natural hazard, but now it is the harsh winter. The hundreds of thousands of Daqian's troops can cross the solid ice of the Yellow River and continue southward, so now there is no obstacle for Daqian's exploration horses to enter Qingzhou!
And just when Cao Cao's army was gathering more and more on the front line of the Yellow River to defend Wang Lei, he did not expect that the danger was gradually approaching him!
At the beginning of November, the Daqian Navy was like a rainbow. Thousands of warships attacked Donglai County in Qingzhou from the sea. The momentum was astonishing.
Cai Yang, the governor of Donglai County, only had 3,000 defenders in his hands, but when he saw the soldiers of Daqian Army getting off the warships in dense numbers, and the number of leading troops alone exceeded 10,000, he knew that such a large number of Daqian Army was simply beyond his control. resisted.
While reporting the news about Donglai County to Cao Cao, he concentrated all his troops on the retreat, intending to become a barrier for Beihai County and buy time for Cao Cao's reinforcements!
On the other side, under the command of Fan Xian, the Daqian Army advanced by land and water, and most of the counties including Huang County, Xiguo, Mouping, and Dongmu. It can be said that Fan Xian's journey was all the underworld that accepted Cao Cao. He did not encounter any Any blocking force!
They didn't encounter Cai Yang's 3,000 defenders until they reached Qucheng, but Fan Xianguang's leading troops only had 30,000 troops, ten times that of Cai Yang. There were hundreds of artillery, thunder cannons and other gunpowder weapons. Xian directly bombarded the city with artillery. After only 10 rounds, the city wall of Qucheng was breached. The 3,000 defenders were overwhelmed by Daqian Army soldiers. Cai Yang, the governor of Donglai County, died in the battle!
At this point, the entire Donglai County has no power to stop the Daqian army's attack!
Cao Cao was shocked by the news that Daqian's army was attacking Donglai County from the sea.
Three days later, Donglai County fell. Cai Yang, the governor of Donglai County, died in battle, which made Cao Cao shocked and angry. Most of his army was on the line of Mount Tai on the Yellow River, thousands of miles away from Donglai County, which can be said to be the entire hinterland of Qingzhou. , there are not many troops stationed at all, and most of the soldiers stationed are newly recruited soldiers, and there is not much combat effectiveness at all!
"Xiahou Dun, I order you to lead an army of 20,000 to support Beihai County. You must rush to Beihai County before the large army!"
Beihai County is vast in area, almost equivalent to half the area of Qingzhou. It can be said that if Beihai County is lost, Qingzhou will almost be lost, and most of the soldiers led by Cao Cao are from Beihai County, and even his relatives, generals and tribesmen Also in Beihai County, if the old nest is occupied, the soldiers in his hands will have no morale to fight Daqian anymore. Here you can refer to Guan Yu who lost Jingzhou!
Xiahou Dun came out and said: "No!"
After saying this, Xiahou Dun left the camp! He knew that the situation was critical now, and if he arrived at Beihai County as early as possible, he could help Cao Cao gain time to deal with Da Qian's army!
The atmosphere in the big tent became solemn for a while. This backstab by Da Ganjun hit Cao Cao's vital point. If the Dagan Army in Donglai County could not be driven away, Qingzhou might really be annexed by Lei Gong.
But it is not easy to drive away the Daqian army. There are 300,000 troops facing them, and they are ready to give them a fatal blow as soon as they reveal their flaws.
