In the fourth episode of "Ge Zhaogong Reinvents Huangtian Again", Ge Zhaodu's southern strategy begins. It doesn't matter that the southern warlords are fragile. More importantly, the city is small, so Ge Zhaodu does not need to spend a lot of time attacking the city like the north.
So in less than half a year, Liu Yao, who was separatist in Jianye, was defeated and killed. Then Ge Zhaodu used Jianye as his base to sweep his army southward. Yan Baihu and Wang Lang were defeated one after another. At this time, 194 was not over yet.
But when winter came, Ge Zhaodu stopped continuing the southern expedition. He only sent General Huang Tian from the branch camp to replace him in the southern expedition, while he led the old battalion to garrison Jianye.
The reason is simple. The little overlord Sun Ce left Yuan Shu, but because Ge Zhaodu had already taken the lead, he did not return to Jiangdong as in history. Instead, he defeated General Huang Tian of Ge Zhao's branch camp, captured Guangling, and stared across the Yangtze River.
The remnant Yellow Turban government was unable to form a fleet, so the natural barrier of the Yangtze River was in vain. Ge Zhao had to lead his old battalion to station in Jianye in case Sun Ce suddenly made a surprise attack one day.
This worry was necessary. Sun Ce used himself to control the sea and tried to raid Jianye several times, but he was beaten back by Ge Zhaodu and his old camp.
Since the old camp was restrained by Sun Ce in Jianye, the continued southern expedition could only be divided into camps and handed over to General Huang Tian. So the next step was to divide the camps on a large scale. Each general Huang Tian could rule a city, and Ge Zhao was The commander-in-chief of this group of generals Huang Tian, big and small.
"Have you seen it? Coming to the south is indeed the right choice. After the three most difficult warlords were defeated, Huang Tian's career has flourished. Those municipalities with local political systems cannot even defeat General Huang Tian. I We will soon have the territory of Sun Wu in history."
However, General Huang Tian's advance came to a halt in Guangdong and Guangxi in 196. This place was firmly controlled by Shi Xie's army, and several attacks were defeated. Fortunately, General Huang Tian was not too useless and could at least withstand Shi Xie's army. Counterattack.
Only Shi Xie's army could stop it, but Liu Biao's army could not. Many cities that were once captured were quickly taken over by Liu Biao's army.
So by 195, there were only three forces left in the south, namely the Shixie Army that separated Guangnan, the Ge Zhao Army that almost unified the South, and the Liu Biao Army that controlled some cities on the south bank of the Yangtze River.
After all, the combat effectiveness of the armies in the branch camps was really unbearable, and as the south of the Yangtze River became increasingly peaceful, the number of refugees became smaller and smaller, causing the Yellow Turban remnant party government to lose a major boost.
The only thing Ge Zhaojun can fight here is his old camp, and the old camp needs to be stationed in Guangling to contain Sun Ce. Sun Ce can't move unless he destroys the old camp.
Sun Cejun's demise in 197 was not due to Ge Zhaodu's ingenuity. He had no boat and could sneak across the river, so he could not solve Sun Cejun's control of the water.
It was Yuan Shu, the overlord of the Central Plains, who really destroyed Sun Ce's army. He had already eliminated Tao Qian's successor Liu Bei's army, and then sent his troops south to attack Sun Ce. Finally, he conquered Guangling in 198 and basically unified the Central Plains.
After Sun Ce was conquered, Ge Zhaodu no longer needed to stay in Jianye, because Yuan Shu's army would not fight south for the time being. Compared with Ge Zhao's army, which was blocked by the Yangtze River, Yuan Shu's army's biggest enemies were undoubtedly warlords from other directions.
Since there is no need to put the old camp in Jianye, the area will be divided into camps and ruled by General Huang Tian. He can lead his army to leave. As for where to go? Ge Zhaodu said this: "Ge Zhao is like a brick, you can move it wherever you need it."
Ge Zhao's brick was first moved to Jian'an, with the purpose of destroying Shi Xie's army, so as to avoid being threatened by Shi Xie's army in the rear during his northern expedition to the Central Plains to create Huangtian again.
The level of development in Guangdong and Guangxi in this era was very low. Ge Zhao's invincible army in the previous stage was delayed for a long time by the journey here.
Therefore, this group of Shi Xie's army also used the same tactics. They relied on the geographical advantage to resist in a corner, which still caused some trouble for Ge Zhao's army. However, Ge Zhao's tactics were still the same. After annihilating the main force of the enemy in the field, they surrounded the city without attacking. Then send partial troops to destroy the surrounding towns.
As the saying goes, as long as the trick is no longer useful, Shi Xiejun was also unable to resist this trick, which led to his final defeat in 200. Ge Zhaodu completely solved his worries.
When Ge Zhaodu unified the south and looked back at the north, he found that the development of his world line was quite bizarre and strange. Not to mention that the audience called it magic, even Ge Zhaodu himself felt a little bit off.
All the princes in Jiangdong were conquered by Ge Zhaodu, even the southernmost Shixie was no exception. The remnant Yellow Turban government did not have a stable political system, and Ge Zhaodu was stuck in not evolving into an ordinary warlord, so he could only separate secondary armies and assign them to each The city was ruled as a stronghold, and he led the old battalion to roam around the territory.
"We are going to reverse course and let Cathay enter the European Middle Ages," some viewers who are familiar with European history said in a barrage. "In the early Middle Ages, kings took their inner knights like this and ate wherever they went. That’s where his capital is.”
As soon as this barrage was released, many people felt that there was indeed a spirit of daring. General Huang Tian divided the cities from various places, and Ge Zhao went around to eat by himself.
And the following barrage is funny along with this: "So we can give Ge Zhaogong an honorific title? The successor of the great sage and mentor who was ordered by Huang Tian to rebuild China, the ruler of (half) Seris, and the master of the land of Wu and Chu ?”
There are also those who have come forward to correct it, such as correcting the error in the time statement: "At this time in the Three Kingdoms, Rome was not finished yet. It was just experiencing the crisis of the third century known as the Thirty Tyrants. Therefore, Ge Zhaogong's system should be too 'modern'."
There are also those who disagree with this: "The early Middle Ages should be the Merovingian era. At that time, the legacy of Rome was not completely finished, and there were not even knights. The HRE you mentioned is more similar to the Saxon Dynasty, which is close to the High Middle Ages. ”
Regardless of the era Ge Zhaojun is living in now, whether it is the early Middle Ages or the High Middle Ages, the audience is very happy to watch, and Ge Zhaodu is also very happy to play.
At this time, the Three Kingdoms had been in turmoil for 10 years, and those small warlords had been conquered one after another. Today, there are still 5 big warlords left in this land, and 3 small warlords who rule in remote areas.
Ge Zhaodu naturally believed that he was one of the five warlords. Although he was the weakest among all the warlords, he controlled a large area of land.
Liu Biao's army was located behind Ge Zhao's army. Taking advantage of the years when Ge Zhao's old camp was restrained by Sun Ce's army and Shi Xie's army, he annexed all the land along the Yangtze River except Jianye.
The magical overlord of the Central Plains this time is Yuan Shujun. Yuan Shu's dominance mostly depends on the bad luck of Cao Cao's army. In the early stage of development, when he was restrained by Dong Zhuo's army, he could not successfully sustain it until the launch of the serial plan. It was conquered by Yuan Shu's army in the Northern Expedition.
Then Yuan Shujun marched eastward, and what was there to the east? Only Tao Qian's army, which had been fighting Ge Zhaodu for more than two years, was naturally unable to resist Yuan Shu's army's eastward advance, and was actually conquered in this way.
After all, Ge Zhaodu, the yellow turban remnant party's political system, is relatively useless in some aspects, but it can be said that he is the most disgusting person in the Three Kingdoms. Tao Qianjun was absolutely disgusted.
