After the three-day registration period, Yuan Shaofang has a total strength of 1.2 million troops and 35 million players. The Cao Ye Alliance has a total strength of 360,000 troops and 29 million players.
The war begins!
All the counselors were gathered to discuss countermeasures, and just like history, all the important people suggested taking the opportunity to burn the food in Wuchao, and the enemy army collapsed.
Ye Feng smiled bitterly and said: "Everyone knows this strategy, so I'm afraid they won't be able to do it as they wish."
"Don't worry, my lord. Foreigners participating in the war will be under the control of the generals and will be dispatched by the general. Yuan Shao will definitely not hoard a large number of troops in Wuchao." Guo Jiadao.
"Oh? The aliens participating in the war did not act independently?"
"Of course not. Anyone who joins the army must abide by military regulations. Otherwise, military law will result in being deprived of qualifications and, in severe cases, being executed." Xun Yu confirmed.
Ye Feng was overjoyed. In this way, it still depends on the general's decision-making. Seeing that Yuan Shao has more people, the actual situation is much better than in history, and the gap is almost negligible. Although Ye Feng is weak and is envied by all kinds of people, he still
Many cloud fans, ghost fans, and drug fans joined the camp, with the total number reaching more than 8 million. Ye Feng announced democratically: he could hang out with whomever he liked and join the various armies. The players happily obeyed and could follow their idols to fight.
It’s a dream I’ve had for many years come true.
The players in Yuan Shao's camp were depressed. They were randomly assigned to various units and had no freedom of movement. They were banned from speaking to the generals when they asked for advice. They couldn't speak even when they opened their mouths. A few thorns refused to resist and were beheaded.
People, the remaining ones were deprived of equipment and qualified to participate in the war and were imprisoned. How could they be called miserable?
Everyone could only pray that the players assigned to Chunyu Qiong Camp could keep the food of Wuchao, and the players in Chunyu Qiong Camp also understood the situation. The spontaneous patrol guards stared red and dared not rest day and night.
Fortunately, there is another consolation: there is no penalty for failure of the participants. I can only helplessly envy the players who chose the enemy camp in the first place.
As expected, Yuan Shao did not have heavy troops to defend Wuchao. Chunyu Qiong's 50,000 troops and horses were still guarding it, and another million players were sent to assist. However, Cao Cao sent 80,000 elite troops and more than 3 million players to raid. Yuan's rescue was delayed and Wuchao lost food.
The war was in full swing, and it did not develop according to history. Yan Liangwen's ugly life was very nourishing, and just like the development of history, Yuan Shao was defeated!
Cao Cao and Ye Feng divided his troops and entered Jizhou.
In addition to being worried, angry and ashamed, Shao, the eldest son of the Yuan family, who had the aura of the Fourth Generation and the Three Young Masters, died of illness. Since then, the Yuan family has completely declined.
Shao was subordinate to Feng Ji, and Yuan Shang was appointed as his heir apparent by trial and error. He was appointed as the lord prince and monitored Yuan Tan. His eldest son, Yuan Tan, was angry and killed the supervisor and surrendered to Cao Cao at Feng Ji.
Fu caliber. One of the Eight Taihang Trails. It is located due west of Yecheng. It has high mountains and deep ravines. It is a natural canyon in the Taihang Mountains. At this time, the valley is about 200 paces wide and 300 paces long. It is filled with people carrying bows and arrows on their backs.
The light cavalry was passing rapidly, followed by tens of thousands of heavy armored cavalry and thousands of heavy infantry.
Just after Yuan Shao's defeat, the players on the losing side were relieved. They could do whatever they had to do, while the players on the winning side followed the large army to burn, kill and loot. Jizhou was like an undefended young woman, letting the fish and meat go.
The biggest benefit depends on who retreats faster.
And this force of Fu caliber was Ye Feng's long-awaited trump card. It was not to send out surprise troops to harass Yuan Shao, but just to capture Ye City before Cao Jun.
Zhao Yun led three thousand white horse Yi Cong Qingqi Jian from one day to attack Yecheng. It was getting late at this time, and the news of Yuan Jun's defeat had not yet spread. The old and weak defenders rubbed their hazy eyes as they watched the three thousand cavalry attack.
The people in the city were shouting and laughing, and the threats had to be serious enough. Although I only have 10,000 old and weak people to guard Yecheng, as a general, the capital is full of relatives and nobles. No general can have dozens or hundreds of relatives.
The soldiers protecting the family members were only much more than the defenders. Were the three thousand cavalrymen who were not in a position to attack the city come to deliver food? So they ignored them and allowed the people in the city to clamor and lay down at the top of the city.
As one of the five major capitals, Yecheng has high walls and numerous arrow towers. It is indeed unrealistic to attack the city. Zhao Yun had no choice but to order Bai Mayi to retreat slowly and set up camp to rest.
The sky was getting brighter, and the old Yecheng army yawned with satisfaction and stood up against the wall with his iron gun, wanting to see what those funny cavalry were doing last night.
Looking at the hundreds of tents in the distance, he was about to laugh when he suddenly felt that the city wall seemed to shake. "How could such a thick city wall shake? Alas, I will die if I don't accept it. I will have hallucinations when I wake up at night..."
Susu...
The city wall really shook, and all the accumulated soil fell down!
Rumble...
It wasn't the city wall that shook, but the torrent of steel in the distance!
Tens of thousands of heavy cavalry lined up and charged forward. Before they reached the west gate, they were separated from the left and right, and encircled from both sides. In an instant, Yecheng fell into a tight siege.
The old army was frightened and shouted that the enemy was attacking. There was chaos at the top of the city and they urgently reported to the general.
"It's okay. Heavy cavalry is good at fighting in the field and it's not good for attacking the city. Seal the four gates tightly and report to the general."
Yuan Jun still felt safe, but he did not dare to go out of the city to fight.
Half a day later, Zhao Ping arrived with 5,000 heavy infantry. These 5,000 infantry were based on the 800 trapped camp and were equipped with heavy armor and powerful crossbows. Although they did not have the terrifying bonus of Gao Shun, their combat power was quite impressive.
In particular, Zhao Ping has entered the Saint level, has excellent command, and has learned the infantry warfare strategy of Xu Rong, the god of war. His command of the infantry is only slightly inferior to Gao Shun.
This attracted the attention of the defender. The defender of Yecheng was Su You, Shen Pei. Su You was a life-saving man. Historically, he wanted to surrender to Cao Cao very early in the history. However, when the city was defeated, he ran away alone. However, Shen Pei was an upright person.
A loyal man resisted the city and defended it. He was captured at the end of his strength and died if he refused to surrender.
The five thousand heavy infantry were heavy and murderous, bringing great oppression. When Su You saw them at the top of the city, his calves trembled. He immediately shouted to express his willingness to surrender and immediately opened the city gate.
Unexpectedly, Shen Pei, who came later, heard this and drew his sword to kill him angrily. Because Shen Pei was upright and deeply trusted by Yuan Shao, he was appointed to a special position in Zhizhong and had high prestige. So he responded to his call and quickly killed Su You's tribe. Only the remaining
Su You squeezed open a crack in the door and ran away in a hurry. The judge did not dare to open the city gate to pursue him, so he allowed him to leave. Then he closed the city gate tightly and placed more arrows as a long-term plan.
Yecheng's walls were deep and thick, and there was also an urn city. It could not be broken without haste. Zhao Yun was not in a hurry, so he ordered 50,000 cavalry to surround it and cut off all communication between inside and outside.
A few days later, Ye Feng, Tai Shici and his cavalry arrived, and immediately released eight thousand Overlord troops to ambush all around.
A few days later, a group of troops arrived, with the central commander's flag bearing a large inscription "Yuan". Ye Feng knew that Yuan Shang had returned in defeat. He had an army of 50,000 to 60,000 infantry. However, the formation was scattered, and their armor was disheveled, making it difficult to hide their fatigue.
When they got closer, they ordered all their cavalry to come out, and the Xiliang cavalry charged in the plain wilderness. Even the Overlord's army could not take the lead, let alone the remaining defeated army. Yuan's army instantly lost morale and fled in all directions. The Overlord's army ambushed on both wings to block the harvest.
Ye Feng clearly remembered that Yuan Shang's escape in history caused Cao Cao to besiege the city for three or four years before taking Yecheng. Naturally, he would not make this mistake if he came in person. Taishi Ci had been ordered to keep an eye on Yuan Shang and not make any mistakes.
Just an hour later, Yuan's army was wiped out, and Tai Shici tied Yuan Shang to Ye Feng.
Although Yuan Shang is a noble son, he is very brave, but he has never endured hardship, let alone been threatened with his life. How dare he not surrender when he is captured now. Since the lord has surrendered, the eldest son has surrendered to Cao, and the second son is at the border of Youzhou, trying to mate Zhongzhi.
Without the will to be self-reliant, you will have no choice but to surrender.
Ye Feng easily captured Yecheng. (To be continued...)
