Crouching dragon and phoenix chick, one can settle the world.
If you get both, your hegemony will flourish.
"Send an urgent order to the four states!
From now on, the North and South War Zones will be established.
Yangzhou and Jiaozhou are the southern theater. Sun Ce's army, Zhou Yu's army, Zhao Yun's army, and Zhang Liao's army are unified under the southern theater army. Sun Ce is appointed as the general commander of the southern theater; Zhou Yu and Pang Tong are appointed as the left and right military divisions of the southern theater; Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao are appointed. , Zhou Tai, Huang Gai, and Han should be the five southern tiger generals. Fully responsible for the war in the southern theater.
The two states of Xu and Qing are the northern theater. Lu Bu's army and Zhang Xiu's army are unified under the northern theater army. They worship Lu Bu as the general commander of the northern theater; they worship Zhuge Liang and Jia Xu as the left and right military advisers of the northern theater; they worship Zhang Xiu, Gao Shun, Taishi Ci, and Cheng Pu and Zang Ba are the five good generals in the north. Fully responsible for the war in the northern theater.
The four states have entered a state of war. During this stage, anyone who joins the army will receive double the military honors and double the pension. Anyone who captures the flag, ascends first, falls into battle, or kills generals will be granted a title of marquis and be promoted to the second level! "
"promise!!!"
Yuan Shao, Liu Biao, Liu Zhang? One versus three, four states versus five states, the advantage lies with me.
As Chen Feng's order was issued, the four prefectures of Qing, Xu, Yang, and Jiao were all in a state of excitement. Contributions could be made right now. All of a sudden, there were countless people joining the army, and the legions of the two major war zones in the north and the south were constantly increasing their numbers, both on the front line and in the logistics.
Xuzhou
Pengcheng
Chen Feng summoned Qiao Gong and Mi Zhu: "They say that before the soldiers and horses are moved, food and grass go first. Can you handle such a large army supply?"
"Back to my lord, after several years of development and accumulation in the three states of Xu, Yang and Jiao, the granaries of each state and county are all full. It may take ten years or more, but they can at least cope with the consumption of my lord's war for three to five years."
"That's good."
…………
southern theater
Yangzhou
After Sun Ce joined forces with Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao, the entire southern theater had a total of more than 70,000 soldiers. Under the advice of right military advisor Pang Tong, partial general Huang Gai and general Han Dang each led 10,000 soldiers to stay in Yangzhou and Jiaozhou.
The remaining 50,000 soldiers were divided into three groups to attack Jingzhou. Sun Ce and Zhou Yu led the group to attack Jiangxia, Pang Tong and Zhang Liao led the group to attack Changsha, and Zhao Yun led the group to attack Guiyang alone.
In the rear, Lu Su and Zhang Zhao organized the militiamen of the two states to mobilize and quickly build food roads to ensure the logistics of the three armies. They could attack wherever they were, and they were determined to capture Jingzhou.
This lineup was so gorgeous that it scared Liu Biao to the point where he had trouble sleeping and eating. He repeatedly asked Huang Zu and Wenpin to divide their forces to deal with it, and at the same time asked Liu Zhang for help from Huang Quan's army in Lingling...
Jiangxia
Facing Sun Ce's attack, Huang Zu appointed general Zhang Shuo as the vanguard and Jiangwu captain Deng Long as the leader of the fleet. Huang Zu stayed behind in Jiangxia.
On the eve of the battle between the two sides, Zhang Shuo, the pioneer of Huang Zu's army, led his troops to reconnoiter the river bank in a large boat, but was discovered by Ling Tong, the bandit commander of Sun Ce's side who was also reconnaissance.
At that time, Ling Tong in the small boat only had dozens of warriors with him, while Zhang Xun's large boat had at least two to three hundred soldiers.
Ling Tong's men were all panicked, but Ling Tong didn't take it seriously and said to everyone: "The enemy is in the open and I am in the dark. Why don't we board the ship and fight while the enemy has not discovered us and is lax on guard?"
So Ling Tong, a fierce man, led dozens of his men to disguise themselves as Zhang Shuo's soldiers under the cover of night, successfully boarded a large ship to surprise Zhang Shuo's army, killed Zhang Shuo in a chaotic battle, and captured hundreds of Zhang Shuo's navy soldiers on board.
After Sun Ce learned that Ling Tong had killed Zhang Shuo, he immediately ordered his naval fleet to cross the Yangtze River and advance on the victory.
Huang Zu quickly ordered Deng Long to lead two Mengchong ships to guard the mouth of the river. At the same time, he asked strong men and archers to ambush on the top of the cliff by the river and throw stones and torches at Sun Ce's large ship.
Several large ships of Sun Ce's navy were destroyed by stones thrown by Huang Zu's soldiers on the cliff top. Seeing this, Zhou Yu had no choice but to persuade Sun Ce to temporarily retreat. In the first encounter, both sides won or lost...
at the same time
Changsha County, Jingzhou
Zhang Liao's army came to Changsha and faced Wenpin's army in Liling, Changsha.
Faced with Wenpin's army's persistence in Liling City, Pang Tong, after personally inspecting Liling City for a week, confidently and calmly asked Zhang Liao: "Liling is in a low-lying area, and the Lu River flows directly to Liling City. The general can prepare for the battle in advance. Ships, send people to build river embankments on the upper reaches of the Lu River, wait until the river water accumulates to a certain extent, destroy the river embankments, use the torrent to flood Liling, and then lead the soldiers to attack Liling by boat. If the inside is coordinated with the outside, then victory can be achieved."
Zhang Liao did as he was told and diverted water to Liling. As expected, Liling City was destroyed and Wenpin was defeated. Zhang Liao greatly admired the new military advisor Pang Tong.
Wenpin's army was defeated and fled to Linxiang, where he guarded Linxiang together with Han Xuan, the governor of Changsha.
Zhang Liao led his army to pursue Linxiang City and called for formation in front of the city gate.
Yang Ling, the military commander under Han Xuan, the prefect of Changsha, volunteered to fight: "The thief will stop being crazy, your grandfather Yang is here!"
Yang Ling picked up his gun, mounted his horse and rushed out of the city gate to kill Zhang Liao in front of the enemy's formation.
Zhang Liao responded with his spear, but the battle failed, and Yang Ling was beheaded.
Pang Tong immediately directed Zhang Liao's soldiers to cheer in unison:
"Huo~huo! Huo~huo! Huo~huo!"
The defenders in Linxiang City were all afraid of the enemy general Zhang Liao. Seeing this, Han Xuan had no choice but to send his general Huang Zhong to fight.
Huang Zhong took the order and rode out to fight Zhang Liao. Seeing that the opponent was quite old, Zhang Liao did not want to fight with him.
After Huang Zhong felt that he was being looked down upon, he said: "If you are ambitious but don't have age, if you have reason but don't have a loud voice, you may not be my opponent!"
After hearing this, Zhang Liao no longer looked down upon Huang Zhong and began to deal with it seriously.
"Touch~!"
The two men, two horses, a spear and a long sword, collided in the blink of an eye, and fought for dozens of times, with no winner or loser.
"Huo~huo! Huo~huo! Huo~huo!" The sergeants behind Zhang Liao began to cheer for Zhang Liao.
"Dong dong dong dong dong dong~!"
The defenders on Linxiang City kept beating drums to support Huang Zhong.
The two men fought more and more bravely in the field. After dozens of rounds, there was still no winner. Han Xuan at the city gate was worried about Huang Zhong's safety, so he ordered the gold to be withdrawn.
Huang Zhong heard the sound of golden drums on the city gate and slowly withdrew into the city. Seeing that it was getting late, Zhang Liao also ordered his troops to retreat and camp for rest.
that night
Zhang Liaojun station
"General, what do you think of Huang Zhong today?" Pang Tong asked Zhang Liao.
Zhang Liao only said four words: "The precious sword is not old yet."
"Yeah." Pang Tong felt the same way: "Does the general think it is possible to conquer such talents?"
Zhang Liao shook his head: "It's difficult."
"I think I can give it a try." Pang Tongtong smiled. As a Jingzhou native, he had heard some of Huang Zhong's deeds, and then said to Zhang Liao: "General tomorrow..."
the next day
After resting and recuperating, Zhang Liao's army came to Linxiang City again and started to call for formation under the city gate as before.
Huang Zhong was once again ordered by Han Xuan to fight against Zhang Liao.
The two fought against each other for the second time, and they fought for fifty or sixty times, but they still couldn't decide the outcome.
So Zhang Liao pretended to be defeated and returned to his horse, and then retreated to lure Huang Zhong into the circle. Huang Zhong didn't know what the plan was, so he patted his horse and chased Zhang Liao.
At this time, Zhang Liao was in front and Huang Zhong was behind. After the two ran for a while, Zhang Liao felt that the time was ripe and was about to turn around and capture Huang Zhong.
Unexpectedly, the horse under Huang Zhong's crotch suddenly stumbled. Huang Zhong lost his center of gravity and was knocked to the ground. Upon seeing this, Zhang Liao stopped his attack and did not take advantage of others' danger.
Huang Zhong, who was on the ground, said unyieldingly: "If you want to kill me, I'll give it to you."
Zhang Liao said: "My gun will not kill old people or children. What's more, this time it's not that your skills are inferior to others, but that you were misled by your horse. You can go and fight with a better horse next time."
Huang Zhong didn't speak again, he couldn't help but feel good about Zhang Liao's character.
