Whether Wangmen is dead or not, Yuan Shao doesn't care, because this is the person who surrendered from Gongsun Zan's side, and he is of little value in itself.
However, Yuyang City, which was originally blocked, was relieved. After attacking for so long, all the efforts were useless. Yuan Shao could not be angry.
"My lord Xu Shu and the others really have a real conspiracy. We still need to strengthen our defenses in the coastal area, otherwise it will be bad if something like this happens." Xu You suggested.
Yuan Shaodao: "Ziyuan's words are reasonable, then send some troops to Wen Chou, and you two will also go to the coast to supervise the army, and you must not let the Donglai navy cause big trouble here, so as not to affect the entire battle situation in Youzhou. Shorten the war and make Xu Ding cheaper."
Now Xu You stopped talking.
He doesn't like to do things that are tiring and hard, and have had no success.
Besides, his main work is intelligence work, and he considers himself important.
Xun Kan had no choice but to say, "Then I'll go."
This task seems to be difficult, but Xun Kan has another interpretation. This may be the easiest one. Don't look at the Donglai navy's merriment, it may not be their main attack direction.
Xu Ding has never shown up, but Tian Yu's appearance in Yuyang this time actually illustrates a problem with scriptures.
Xu Ding won and Gongsun Zan lost, otherwise Tian Yu would not dare to enter Xu Ding's land.
Now that Tian Yu is here, Xu Ding should also appear there. Juyongguan, which has never heard of it, should have news this time.
Xu Ding must have brought a large army to the south from Shanggu County. The cavalry attack was even sharper and hard to defend against.
So he simply hid himself from poverty and let Xu You think about the headache.
On the second day after Xun Kan went to the southern coast, the news finally spread from Juyongguan. In the duel outside the pass, Gongsun Zan lost to Huang Zhong, and Baima Yicong was defeated by the Seventh School Wei Army.
Youzhou belonged to Xu Ding, and Gongsun Zan himself was incorporated by Xu Ding.
Baima Yicong was adapted into the Baima Army to join the Donglai Army to fight.
And complete the training in Juyongguan.
As Xu Ding's vanguard, the White Horse Army went south to support the capital of the army, and rescued his son Gongsun Xu and others.
General Yuan Shao, who attacked the capital of the army, retreated to Changping, and Xu Ding led the army into the customs. The whole Youzhou was shaken, and the news spread wildly.
Chapter 726 The Bad News Comes
Xu Ding hadn't really entered the customs yet, so the earth in Youzhou was shaken by the scriptures.
Like the return of a king, it makes people nervous, not to mention the local family in Youzhou, even Yuan Shao and Xu You are a little scared.
After all, they didn't know how many troops Xu Ding brought to Shanggu County, and how many people would go south.
Xu Ding has the main force of the top ten colonels and five guards.
The number of guards alone is as many as [-].
Moreover, each of the five guards has its own characteristics, and they are all elites who have achieved great fame.
Needless to say, Shenjiqi has the highest attendance rate and the most kills.
The rain of arrows all over the sky is frightening.
Xuanjiawei heavy cavalry, sweeping invincible, unstoppable, rampaging and crushing everything.
Mo Daowei, people move like a wall, sword moves like thunder, destroying all enemies standing in front or rushing.
Although the legal guards and guards are not as famous as the other three guards, they are also brave troops, which are not comparable to ordinary soldiers.
However, the information sent back later made Yuan Shao and others feel cheated.
Xu Ding went south, but there was only one guard, Shenji rode seven thousand soldiers south, and another thousand stayed behind or recuperated in Juyongguan.
Only seven thousand rides.
"How is this possible? He only brought such a small number of people. He doesn't want Youzhou anymore. He doesn't want to scare our army out of Youzhou by relying on these 7000 people and Gongsun Zan's white horse army." Yuan Shao After hearing the news, I couldn't believe it, and I laughed very contemptuously.
This Xu Ding really didn't take him seriously, did he still want to drive him away from Jixian County and Youzhou just like how Zhao Yun captured Yecheng with thousands of cavalry?
"My lord, the news is true. Xu Ding took seven thousand to the south. According to the information disclosed by Gongsun Zan's subordinates, Xu Ding first led the Guiyi Army, the New Japanese Army, and the Shenji Riding on the Great Wall to intercept the central Xianbei army. They went south." Xu Yousheng was afraid that Yuan Shao would not believe him and doubted his intelligence system, so he said again:
"When he arrived in Shanggu County, he took another three or four thousand from Baimayi to give to Huang Zhong, and asked Huang Zhong to fight Liu Bei's department in Daijun. His Shenjiqi also recruited more than 2000 people from Baimayi. There are only eight thousand people."
Yuan Shao asked: "Then what do you think he wants to do? It's impossible for this kind of person to defeat our Ji County. His cavalry didn't bring any siege machines, and Gongsun Zan's men didn't have any decent siege machines. Instead, we had the advantage. He can't use cavalry as infantry."
"I can't see through it, and I still can't see through it now. If he hasn't shown up with a large force, he must be gathered somewhere, so that we can be paralyzed and then punch him hard." Xu You promised himself to be smart. I can't understand it either.
Xu Ding's use of troops has always been weird and unpredictable, it can be fierce or ghostly, it is really difficult to deal with.
Especially when he hides heavy troops.
Xu You's eyes were still fixed on the coastal area of Youzhou map.
Only here is the most suitable and convenient place for the Donglai Army to attack.
But it's always been a small fight, not for real.
This made Xu You also depressed.
"Forget it, no matter how much it is, send an order to Zhaozhao. If Xu Dingruo storms Changping City, he must stick to it and not be scared off. Once he abandons the city, he will be finished. I will support Changping when the time is right." Yuan Shao didn't think so much, either. Wait for Xu's next move.
Xu Ding either stormed Changping, or crossed Changping and went south, and then used the advantage of cavalry to raid cities and counties, using the strategy of fighting if he could, and wandering if he could not.
After all, this is the most suitable tactic for cavalry.
So Yuan Shao ordered Yan Liang and others to withdraw from Haixi, the infantry guard You Beiping, and the cavalry returned.
Xu Ding and Gongsun Zan's cavalry would be passive without cavalry.
Then he asked all the families in Youzhou and his generals to guard the cities, not to engage in field battles with Xu Ding's cavalry, and it would be better to force Xu Ding's cavalry to attack the city.
Whoever does it will be rewarded.
In short, there is one thing, try to destroy Youzhou as much as possible, that is to play siege warfare, every city must be defended, and every defense must be fought to the death.
It's just that Xu Ding didn't go south again in the military capital.
Only Gongsun Zan's White Horse Army sent news from various places, and persuaded all cities and counties to submit to them, telling Yuan Shao's sinister intentions.
He also told everyone that the Marquis of Weihai really didn't want to fight in order to preserve more vitality in Youzhou, and hoped that everyone would drive away Yuan Shao and his army by themselves.
Otherwise, with the flames of war, the lives of Youzhou will be ruined, and it will be Youzhou and Youzhou's aristocratic families who will suffer.
"Hahaha, Xu Ding, Xu Ding, do you think that everyone loves Youzhou as much as you do? It's too simple to make Youzhou change course by passing a few words." Yuan Shao couldn't help laughing when he heard the report. It was the first time since the start of the war that he laughed so well.
