Xu Huang and Gan Ning led more than 3,000 soldiers and headed towards Fuyang according to the map in their hands. Fuyang was not far from the seaside. Even if the army marched one after another, it would take ten days. At this time, they were in Jizhou
The Xiliang army only has 50,000 people. I don't know if it can resist Yuan Shao. It is the first time that Xu Huang has led the army to conduct such a long-range raid. He is still a little uneasy. The importance of this battle is approaching.
Jia Xu had already told him that if he failed, the Xiliang Army's two years of preparation would be in vain. In ten days, three thousand people would consume a lot of food and supplies. It can be said that this time
If Yuan Shao deploys heavy troops in Fuyang, it goes without saying that these three thousand people will probably starve to death in Jizhou.
If Xu Huang is a little unfamiliar with Jia Rong, Xu Huang is grateful to Jia Xu. Without Jia Xu, he might still be a general who sits in a well and looks at the sky. Seeing the Xiliang Army not only made him continue to improve, but also
Having learned how to seize fighting opportunities, he was confident that Yuan Shao had very few troops stationed in Fuyang, and since it was close to the sea, there was no need to fortify it at all.
The military commander is most passionate about the battlefield, and Xu Huang also strives to gain fame with the sword in his hand.
When a war broke out in Jizhou, Yuan Shao transferred almost all his elite troops to Julu. No matter what, he never expected that such a team would land in Bohai County. In order to defend against the Xiliang Army, Yuan Shao was well prepared and stationed in Bohai County.
Heavy troops were used to resist the Xiliang Army. The places bordering the Xiliang Army such as Julu and Zhao were no exception. However, as the war gradually progressed, the defenders from various places were mobilized to prepare for a decisive battle with the Xiliang Army in Julu.
.
"General, we found a city ahead, and the city gates are wide open, and people are coming in and out." The scout brought back the latest news from the front.
"Continue to inquire, don't alert the enemy," Xu Huang said.
"General Gan, as expected, the front should be Fuyang. As long as Fuyang is captured, we can further attack Bohai. If we are fast, we can capture Xindu before Yuan Jun can react and cut off Yuan Jun's attack.
With the supply of grain and grass, our army will achieve complete victory in the battle of Jizhou."
Gan Ning nodded and said: "What General Xu said is true. It is not too late to make plans early to avoid unnecessary complications."
"There must not be many defenders in Fuyang City. Yuan Shao, under the pressure of our army, must have mobilized all his elite troops. He only needs to let the soldiers disguise themselves as common people and sneak into the city, suddenly launch an attack, and control the county government in his hands. God knows what is going on.
Just capture Fuyang when you feel it." Xu Huang said.
"General, this plan is brilliant." Gan Ning praised with high fives.
Yuan Shao certainly didn't expect that there was an elite Xiliang army behind him, and the defense was loose, which just provided the Xiliang army with an opportunity to completely defeat the Jizhou army in one fell swoop.
Fuyang is a city that is not very prosperous. There are only more than a thousand defenders in the city. Most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled people who have been eliminated from the army. They have little combat effectiveness. Even if they are used to guard the city, they are somewhat reluctant.
The three hundred people worked for three days and infiltrated into the city one after another. After some inquiring, Xu Huang discovered that there was also a general from the Jizhou Army among the defenders stationed in Fuyang City. If he controlled the county magistrate, the general would not necessarily surrender.
It is safest to have the army in your hands. When the time comes, you only need to close the city gate of Fuyang, and it is impossible for Jizhou to get the news.
Xu Huang personally led the troops and approached the army. Of course, these people were lurking in the dark and following Xu Huang quietly.
"Comers, stop here. This is the camp. No one can enter." The soldier guarding the camp said majestically.
Xu Huang looked unhappy and nodded to a soldier dressed as a servant beside him.
"General, my young master is very curious about the training of soldiers in the army, so he wants to come and take a look. This is just a small idea. I hope the general can accept it."
Not to mention money, just a few words from the servants made the soldiers feel very comfortable. The soldiers guarding the door usually have a very hard job. They often stand for a whole day without being able to move. When they meet other soldiers in the army, they also frown.
It's rare to see a good face.
"Hurry up and go in. Don't take too long, otherwise the general will definitely scold you when he finds out." The soldier said sternly.
A dozen people quietly sneaked into the military camp.
"Can this be called a military camp?" Xu Huang asked. Looking around, there were no soldiers training at all. They were just lying in the sun, basking in the sun, and chatting. It was really fun to be a soldier.
Xu Huang had a contemptuous smile on his face, and after spending some money, he easily got the place where the general lived.
Approaching the camp, Xu Huang heard a faint cry coming from inside. His face turned slightly red and he said, "I didn't expect your general to be quite busy."
The soldiers accompanying him smiled and said: "There is nothing serious in the army, but as long as there is war, we will never be lenient."
Xu Huang nodded slightly and waited for a moment before ordering the soldiers to report.
As soon as he entered the camp, Xu Huang frowned slightly. This was not a place where official business was usually done. It was clearly a doghouse. And where the table should be placed, there was actually a large bed with messy bedding. You didn't need to think about it to know what had just happened.
What happened.
"Who are you?" The general didn't feel any shame at all for his actions just now. Being a general in Fuyang, a place where no one has shit, is completely free and at ease.
"Oh, this must be the famous General Zhao. I am the son of the Zhao family in the county. I have nothing to do, so I came to Fuyang." Xu Huang said.
"So it turns out that they belong to the Zhao family in the county. Some are welcome from a distance, and some are welcome from afar." General Zhao hurriedly clasped his fists and said.
"Come here and have fun. No matter what your request is, I will try my best to satisfy it." Although General Zhao didn't know what the status of the Zhao family in the county was, he couldn't provoke it. He used to be just a minor member of the Yellow Turban Army.
After the general took refuge with Yuan Shao, he stayed in Fuyang. His daily task was to train his troops and horses. Most of his subordinates were the Yellow Turban soldiers of the past. They could be used to rob families and homes, but if they wanted to fight, they could only turn around and run away.
After transforming from a rebel to an officer, General Zhao became even more unscrupulous in his actions. He often found some women to hang out with in the army, and he did not pay much attention to the training of soldiers. The entire Fuyang military was in a mess.
"I have a treasure here. I don't know its origin. I hope the general can take a look at it." Xu Huang motioned to the servant beside him to come forward.
"Bring it up quickly." General Zhao's mind was spinning again and again. Since it was a treasure and it came to his own territory, how could he miss it? Look at the young master's servants, only a dozen of them. After cleverly robbing him, he assassinated him. God.
You can still get treasures without knowing it, so why not do it.
The servant came to General Zhao and slowly opened a delicate box.
There is a dagger inside, which is very beautifully decorated, but the faint black light on the dagger's blade gives people the impression that it is full of blood.
Before General Zhao could reach out to take it, the servant stood up and put the dagger on General Zhao's neck, saying coldly: "Don't move."
General Zhao had never seen such a formation before. His face instantly turned pale as paper, and his lips trembled as he said: "Master Zhao, please stop joking and ask your servant to put the dagger away."
Xu Huang stood up and laughed and said: "I am not joking with you. Fuyang is quite good. I want to take it for myself. I wonder what General Zhao wants?"
"Master Zhao is joking. Fuyang belongs to Mr. Yuan. Even if he agrees with his humble position, it won't count." At this time, Mo said that he asked General Zhao to give Fuyang to Xu Huang, even if the conditions were harsh, he would agree.
"Haha, I want to capture Fuyang, all you have to do is cooperate." Xu Huang took off his clothes, revealing the military uniform underneath.
"You? Are you?" General Zhao felt that his brain was a little lacking.
"You don't need to know these, you just need to follow my orders." Xu Huang glanced at the dozen or so guards around him and said coldly: "Except for General Zhao, these people have no use.
"
As soon as he finished speaking, the servants beside Xu Huang pulled out their hidden weapons and killed all the soldiers in three strokes.
It was only now that General Zhao began to believe that Xu Huang was not joking, but really wanted to occupy Fuyang. The word "rebellion?" suddenly appeared in his mind. Looking at the wet blood on the ground, Zhao
The general felt his throat was sore. He didn't expect to encounter such a bloody thing in Fuyang. The opponent was obviously a ruthless person, and he used real swords and guns without any ambiguity.
"Master, have mercy on me, Master, have mercy on me." After reacting, General Zhao begged for mercy again and again.
"As long as you cooperate well, I will naturally not take your life, and I can even give you a fortune." Xu Huang said.
Taking down Fuyang, everything was very secret. No one in the city was alarmed, not to mention ordinary people. Even the generals in the army did not know that the master of the army had changed. They were still eating and waiting for hunger. In their consciousness
Here, Julu is too far away from here, and even the Xiliang army cannot attack such a dilapidated place.
With Fuyang, the Xiliang Army's plan can be implemented faster. There are more than 2,000 soldiers outside the city. No one can bear the continuous rush. After some rest, they can send troops to the county and save money in the city.
The small amount of food and grass provided supplements to the army.
Jia Rong, who was in Julu, didn't know what effect the actions of Gan Ning and others had achieved, so he had to endure hardship outside the city.
The Xiliang army only defended but did not attack, which made Yuan Shao's confidence soar. He led his soldiers out of the city one after another to fight with the Xiliang army. The morale of the defenders gradually increased under Yuan Shao's leadership.
