This Bai Rao is not just a local snake, this guy is quite reasonable and quite capable.
Bai Rao is not a guy who can only scare people, nor is he that reckless.
This guy got a lot of food and baggage from the beginning.
Then he gave a large portion to Zhang Niujiao and Chu Yan in exchange for their trust and greater rights.
After he got more soldiers and horses, this goal became even more powerful.
At the same time, this guy named Bai Rao also behaved very reasonably while robbing!
He found those wealthy families and told them that as long as they took out the food and grass he said, he would never bother them again.
And this guy does what he says, and he really doesn't make any enemies.
But just because of his approach, he got a lot of food and money. With enough money and food, he could recruit more refugees.
Then he once again selected the refugees to attack the city in various ways, and continued to train his soldiers, which made his situation much better.
And the soldiers have become more elite.
This is why the soldiers and horses under this guy are so difficult to deal with. In addition to the Black Mountain Army and Chu Yan's own training methods.
The most important thing is that this guy is a talent and he really has a brain!
At the same time, Gongsun Zhu also saw it.
It was precisely because of Bai Lao's understanding of Changshan County that he knew the limits of what each family could bear.
So every shot will be successful.
At this time, no one wants to fight with the Montenegrin Yellow Turbans, so within the acceptable range, just spending money can avoid disasters.
This is of course the best.
But this method can be used for a while but not for a long time.
The land of Changshan is not like the same Zhongshan County, which has been a county all year round, so the land of Zhongshan can definitely be regarded as full of aristocratic families.
There were only so many aristocratic families in Changshan County, and many of them were related to Chu Yan, the leader of his family. After searching, he suddenly found that he had enough food.
However, their Montenegrin Army's food and grass gap is still very large.
This made him unable to help but start to use his brain, so in this case, he could only choose to attack the place he least wanted to go, Zhen Dingguo.
And following the understanding of Bai Rao during this period, Gongsun Zhu actually understood the situation of Zhen Ding.
In other words, I understand this Zhending County Prince...
The Zhending Kingdom was based on the brotherhood between Emperor Wu and Liu Shun, the king of Changshan. He named Liu Ping, another son of Liu Shun, the Zhending King, and made the Zhending Kingdom a vassal state.
In addition, the Zhending King had quite a lot of fiefs. In terms of honors and favors, there is a word called Marquis of Ten Thousand Households.
To be able to grant rewards to ten thousand households, this was quite an explosive existence for the Han Dynasty for hundreds of years.
But the prince of Changshan Zhending was different. From the beginning, he had 30,000 households.
Although it is true that the clan members of the Han Dynasty received some preferential treatment, no matter how preferential treatment they were given, it was still quite remarkable when it was 30,000 households.
Most importantly, this lineage has been passed down.
It’s the kind of inheritance that has been passed down from generation to generation!
In other words, King Zhending and his descendants enjoyed the fiefdom of 30,000 Han households for a full 297 years.
Even if there was Wang Mang's chaos in the middle, he still immediately let the truth be renewed, and the food and fodder were naturally renewed.
By the way, there is no tax on this thing.
After nearly three hundred years of accumulation, one can imagine how rich the grain reserves of King Zhending are, so he only needs to open the granary of Zhending Kingdom directly and take away all the grains of this Han clan clan member.
Not to mention the imminent danger of their Black Mountain Army, I am afraid that his family commander will immediately dare to contact the group of large and small bandits in Bingzhou to discuss the merger.
But equally, as a vassal country that has existed for nearly three hundred years, the Zhending Kingdom would have perished long ago if it were to attack him so easily.
Therefore, Zhending Country is a place that Bai Rao likes but is helpless.
At this time, Bai Rao was "helpless" and chose to come towards Changshan Zhending.
And from the beginning, this guy started attacking Zhending Country crazily!
You must know that Zhending country consists of four counties: Zhending, Mianman, Gaocheng and Feilei.
Before Gongsun Zhu arrived, Bai Rao was also somewhat smart, or he actually had some generals.
As soon as this guy took action, he did not rush to directly attack Zhending, the important place of Zhending Kingdom. Instead, he chose to surround it on all sides, and then marched to Zhending to attract the opponent's attention.
Later, while Gaocheng was not occupied, he first broke through Gaocheng to cut off the connection between Feilei and Mianman. Then he sent many generals under his command to immediately besiege Zhending County. At the same time, he personally led troops to storm Feilei and broke through another city. .
Finally, he led his army to attack Mianman by force and broke into the city.
I won't say whether this series of operations was good or bad, but it confused Tian Yu, who obviously underestimated the enemy.
Bai Rao was immediately restrained, or he was completely confused and didn't know what to do.
After this series of fighting, Bai Rao's Black Mountain Yellow Turban soldiers suffered a lot of losses. Tian Yu was really underestimating the enemy.
But the soldiers under his command are not simple either.
After the fights between them, Bai Luo suffered a lot.
But in the end Bai Rao beat Tian Yu back.
It even made Tian Yu's losses even more severe...
But Na Bai Rao was also unhappy, because after fighting so hard, the soldiers and horses were damaged a lot, but the food and grass captured was not much.
Although Bai Rao had already expected this, after all, he was a local and knew something about the guys in Changshan.
It can be said that Bai Rao knew very clearly that all this would be like this, because when the military campaign near Changshan came together, all the grain, fodder and baggage of the Zhending Kingdom had already appeared in Zhending County.
Even the soldiers and horses in the other three counties are not that many, it is because enough soldiers and horses have been gathered into Zhending.
Rely on this solid city to block the final attack.
To be able to do all this in Wancheng so quickly, to be honest, this is the ability of the royal family member of Zhending Kingdom.
cautious!
He knew that if he insisted on defending the entire territory of Zhending, there would definitely be huge problems, so he simply gave up the other three places and tried his best to protect Zhending.
Although the other three counties have no main force, they can still be his horns. If someone comes to attack, they can send troops to respond.
Who would have thought that if he met a local snake like Bai Rao, he would first cut off the three arms of Zhending.
Without the help of these three counties, Zhending County can really only rely on one method.
Even with the support of Tian Yu's soldiers and horses, Bai Rao still puts them in his eyes.
Even after being attacked by Gongsun Zhu and Zhao Yun, Bai Rao not only failed to calm down, but instead made an even crazier move.
Attack directly!
Seize time and attack directly! attack!
At this time, Bai Rao's army had also completed its gathering, and the soldiers and horses were heading towards Zhending one after another.
Then they rested for a while under Zhending City. After the army gathered together, they immediately attacked!
The seemingly crude ladder was placed on the top of the city, and there was even a well-mounted ladder obtained from unknown sources that was carrying the Yellow Turban bandits slowly toward the city wall of Zhending County. .
The vast appearance is really terrifying.
At the very least, when Bai Rao used up seemingly all his power and poured all the pressure into Zhending County, even Liu Ben, the Zhending King, also felt a little difficult.
Not only was the Yellow Turban Army's momentum huge, but also because of the Yellow Turban Army's attack, Liu Ben discovered a very serious problem.
"Didn't Captain Gongsun go out with you Zilong yesterday?
Why... Zilong, you came back in the end, but Captain Gongsun couldn't come back?
Could it be that Captain Gongsun had an accident? "
At this time, Liu Ben looked at Zhao Yun beside him and the army under the city, and his heart was not ordinary panic.
If the guy named Tian Yu hadn't been there on the other side of him, Liu Ben would have thought that Gongsun Zhu was a liar who cheated people out of food and drink!
