Three Kingdoms: Starting War Strategy System

Xiling County, Jiangxia County.

That is, near Xinzhou in later generations.

Liu Chen led his army to garrison troops here.

Within the camp.

With the intelligence coming back from all parties, the mood of the counselors was very high.

Guo Jia smiled lightly and said:

"My lord, now the entire Jiangxia County, except for the three counties south of the Yangtze River, including Shaxian, Exian, and Xiazhi, the other eleven counties are in my hands.

Now Zhou Yu, Lu Su and other Jiangdong naval forces are patrolling the Yangtze River, and General Huang Zhong's navy has not arrived yet, so we don't have to compete with them.

However, General Zhao and other soldiers can be allowed to cross the Han River and attack Nanjun in Jingzhou and other places. He then surrounded Xiangyang with General Zhang Jiao and other soldiers to oppress Liu Biao.

We will definitely capture the land of Xiangyang."

What Guo Jia said made Liu Chen nod, and then asked:"How has Liu Ye's governance been since he took office in Lujiang County?"

"Liu Ye has been in office for more than a month, and according to intelligence, his performance is very good. The main cement road in Lujiang County has been constructed and other facilities are also in progress.……"

Cheng Yu briefly introduced Liu Ye's political performance:"This man is quite talented, he is a genius in the world!"

Liu Chen nodded with satisfaction, and then ordered:

"In this way, let Liu Ye first mobilize grain, grass and baggage to support Jiangxia. Our army will attack Nanjun, and the logistics must be guaranteed."

As soon as Liu Chen said this, footsteps were heard outside the camp, and the messenger suddenly came in a hurry to report:

"Report! Your Highness! Liu Bei's army was discovered near Jiangling and seemed to be rushing to aid Yuan Shu in Nanyang."

This urgent report made Liu Chen and other advisers stunned!

They subconsciously looked at the topographic map. Jiangxia is only a few hundred miles away from Jiangling. Liu Bei rushed to rescue Yuan Shu more than 20 days ago, and he has only reached Jiangling now?!

Liu Chen again After asking the messenger a few questions, he finally asked him to go down to receive the reward.

Guo Jia said:"It seems that Liu Bei deliberately slowed down his march. Perhaps when he arrives in Xiangyang and hears the news that Yuan Shu is dead, he will definitely be overly sad. Then I happened to stay in Xiangyang."

"Lord, it is reported that General Zhao is now in Jingling County, Jiangxia. He only needs to cross the Han River to snipe Jiangling Liu Bei's army. Cheng

Yu suggested:"It is better to send General Zhao to lead the cavalry to chase Liu Bei, bite Liu Bei's army and not let go, dispatch Changshan troops from other counties in Jiangxia to help General Zhao, and then wipe out Liu Bei's army in one fell swoop!"

Liu Chen pondered for a moment and then asked:"How many troops does Liu Bei have?""

"I don’t know the details, but according to past intelligence, Liu Bei has more than 100,000 former Yellow Turban Army soldiers, nearly 200,000! Cheng

Yu cupped his hands and said,"Although they have been trained by Guan Zhang and other generals, these are still a mob." With the bravery of General Zhao and the elite Changshan Army, this battle has great potential!"

Cheng Yu's words attracted Guo Jia and other advisers to nod in agreement.

"Send an order to Zilong to lead his army to pursue Liu Bei's army. He does not need to try to fight with them, but only needs to slow down their march."

Liu Chen decisively gave the order:"Mobilize the Changshan Army from other counties in Jiangxia County, leaving four to five thousand troops to defend the city, and all the others rush to the aid of Jiangling."

"The general will obey!"

Immediately some generals went down to make arrangements.

Zhao Yun was stationed in Lujiang County with an army of 100,000, and Liu Chen moved his staff and led an army of 50,000.

After attacking Jiangxia, Liu Chen transferred another 50,000 troops from Yuzhou, Xuzhou and other places. The Jiangxia front line is here There are 200,000 Changshan troops.

Excluding the guarding central army, food, grass, baggage, medical troops and other logistical support, the number of combat personnel can reach up to 150,000. The number of troops to guard the eleven counties of Jiangxia is about 50,000 to 60,000.

In other words, when Liu Chen After the order was given, nearly 100,000 Changshan troops rushed to Jiangling to assist Zhao Yun in pursuing Liu Bei.

Jingling County.

This county is located on the border of Jiangxia and borders Nanjun. It only needs to cross the Han River to attack Nanjun and other counties in Jingzhou..

Now Zhao Yun is leading 10,000 soldiers to garrison the newly conquered Jingling County.

Liu Chen's instructions were quickly conveyed by communication pigeons.

When Zhao Yun saw the news, he left 5,000 Changshan troops to guard Jingling County to prevent surrender. The original garrison rebelled and supervised the surrender of soldiers.

Then he led five thousand cavalry and quickly pursued Liu Bei's army.

The Han River is the longest tributary of the Yangtze River. It is naturally easier to cross the Han River than to cross the Yangtze River.

And the Han River is the longest tributary of the Yangtze River. In addition to boat extradition, there are many shallow waters for passage. Zhao Yun quickly crossed the Han River and pursued Liu Bei's army.

……

Jiangling.

Liu Bei led his army to aid Yuan Shu in Nanyang City. The army was only over 100,000 strong, so the marching speed was naturally not very fast.

Hurrying slowly, it has been more than 20 days since we set off. It has been nearly a month and we are still wandering around Jiangling.

According to this marching speed, it is estimated that it will take more than a month for Liu Bei's army to reach Xiangyang.

If Yuan Shu hadn't died by then, it would have taken more than a month to rush from Xiangyang to Nanyang City in Jingzhou.

"Brother Highway, it’s not that I, Liu Xuande, is unkind, but the speed of my march slowed down my rescue speed!

There is no way I can ride to Nanyang alone? I believe you can understand even if you are under the influence of Jiuquan!"

Liu Bei's face was anxious, but he was a little proud in his heart. He slowly apologized to Yuan Shu in his heart. Of course, if Yuan Shu could hear it, he would not care about Liu Bei's affairs.

"Brother, Dangyang County is ahead of us, why don't we go in and take a rest? All the soldiers were in a bad state due to fatigue."Guan Yu suggested.

Liu Bei agreed in his heart, but on the surface he said eagerly:

"Yun Chang, if we are marching like this now, can we reach Nanyang City in the year of monkey and horse and moon? Brother Jiujiu is still waiting for me in Nanyang City to come and help!

No rest, order the soldiers to speed up the march, no more delays!"

Guan and Zhang immediately tried to persuade him, but Liu Bei was indifferent.

Xu Shu, the military advisor, could only say with emotion and reason:

"My lord, if all the soldiers are exhausted and rush to Nanyang City, they will not be able to fight at all. By then, the enemy army will be waiting for work, and it will be impossible for our army to stop it!

What's more, entering Dangyang County is also a good time to inquire about Xiangyang and Nanyang City."

Liu Bei finally agreed!

The officers and soldiers were moved by the way they were so anxious for Yuan Shu. Their lord was really unparalleled in benevolence, justice and loyalty!

The group entered Dangyang County.

Naturally, not all the army could enter and be stationed. Outside the county seat.

Liu Bei used Liu Biao's seal to meet with the local county magistrate. After some inquiring, he actually heard the news that Changshan's army had conquered Nanyang City.

Yuan Shu's death also spread throughout Jingzhou!

This made Liu Bei look dumbfounded. , in grief, tears burst down his face:"Brother Qiu, Brother Qiu!" How can you bear to leave me!"

"Brother, my condolences!"Guan Zhang immediately stepped forward to comfort him.

Xu Shu, Jian Yong, Sun Qian and other counselors were also comforting him.

Liu Bei continued to cry for a whole hour. He didn't know where he came from so many tears. He looked like he was wailing. It was very shocking!

During this period, he even fainted many times, which gave all the soldiers a deeper understanding of Liu Bei's benevolence and righteousness.

"Military Advisor, now Nanyang City has been captured by the Changshan Army, and it will be useless for us to go there. So should we go to Xiangyang now, or go back to Jiangxia? Guan

Yu asked with a sigh.

Before Xu Shu could speak, the county magistrate on the side said eagerly:"Now Jiangxia has also been captured by Changshan's army, and only three counties are left to survive!""

"What?!"

The heartbroken Liu Bei suddenly woke up and swooped over:

"Magistrate Li, isn't there General Huang Zu stationed in Jiangxia? In just over a month, so many county towns were captured by the Changshan Army?

Magistrate Li sighed and explained:"The battle reports came in a few days ago. It seems that King Changshan led his army to conquer the land in person, and all the land north of the Yangtze River was lost."

Now General Huang is stationed in Jiangxia County south of the Yangtze River, and Zhou Yu and Lu Su Navy from Jiangdong are confronting the Changshan Army on the Jiangxia coast!

What a troubled time indeed!"

Liu Bei looked horrified!

Behind him, the generals such as Guan Zhang and Xu Shu, as well as the counselors, also had pale faces!

Xu Shu and Lu Su had said at the beginning that if they left Jiangxia, the Changshan Army would definitely take the opportunity to attack.

But they never thought of it. Changshan Army's attack speed will be so fast

"not good! Xu

Shu's expression changed drastically, and then he pulled Liu Bei aside and said,"My lord, there are many counties in Jiangxia that border Nanjun."

If we fall into the hands of the Changshan Army, our army will have a large number of troops and we will definitely not be able to hide it from their eyes. We must leave as soon as possible."

Liu Bei looked shocked and nodded in agreement!

They bid farewell to the Dangyang County magistrate and set off directly towards Xiangyang, preparing to meet Liu Biao first.

With such a majestic pass as Xiangyang City, they were slowly planning for it and making other plans!

It's just.

Not long after Liu Bei left Dangyang County, the cavalry troops led by Zhao Yun came in pursuit.

With the help of detective pigeons and scouts, Zhao Yun eliminated all the scouts and spies Liu Bei had spread out one by one.

He pursued Liu Bei's army without anyone noticing.!

After chasing for ten miles, the intensive sound of horse hooves still vibrated, arousing the vigilance of Guan Zhang and other generals, and finally realized the dangerous message that the pursuers had arrived!

"Military advisor, what should we do now?"

Liu Bei asked in a panic.

This time he was really not calm. The ones chasing him behind him were the world-famous Changshan Army cavalry! It was even very likely that they were Zhao Yun's White Dragon Riders!

"Naturally, we need to be prepared! Xu

Shu said with a solemn expression:"It's just that we are not the opponent of Changshan Army. If we form a formation in a hurry, we will definitely be defeated!"

But if you speed up your escape, you will definitely not be able to outrun the cavalry. If you are attacked from behind, it will be even more deadly!

Now there is only one way, to stay behind with a small force to meet the enemy and buy time for the large force to escape!"

Xu Shu's words changed the expressions of Liu Bei and other soldiers!

This is leaving cannon fodder to cut off the queen!

Facing the pursuit of the Changshan Army, cutting off the queen is tantamount to a narrow escape!

"Brother, let me cut off the queen!"Zhang Fei patted his chest and volunteered.

"no!"

Liu Bei firmly refused. He really has feelings for the two sworn brothers.

"Lord, let me do it!"Tai Shi Ci volunteered

"no!"

These generals have followed him for many years, and Liu Bei is reluctant to part with him. How can a human being be ruthless? They are not an interest partner like Yuan Shu who he met halfway! Liu Bei treats the brothers who follow him to conquer the country sincerely. If Jun Ruo treats them with all his heart,

If the country's nobles treat me well, I will repay them with the country's nobles!

"Lord, make your decision quickly!"Xu Shu said anxiously

"If we want to walk together, we must die together! Liu

Bei said without doubt:"What's more, we don't know the number of enemy troops. Maybe they are only a few thousand?" We fight and retreat!

Military advisor, you can arrange your troops, fight and retreat at the same time, you can definitely do it! Is it right?!"

Xu Shu sighed, even if it doesn't work now, it will work!

He nodded directly and ordered:"I understand, my subordinates! But now there are two retreat routes, and the lord needs to choose - the first one is to go to Xiangyang, but Nanyang has been destroyed and Fancheng is in danger. Changshan's army will definitely come to the city, and Xiangyang may also be destroyed and people will be killed!

Second, we immediately turned to Sichuan. With the power of Changshan's army, Cao Cao would not dare to stop us, and would even go to meet us. Or you can choose a place where the flow of the Yangtze River is gentle, cross southward, and step into the land south of the Yangtze River!"

Liu Bei did not hesitate and directly chose the second option!

If he went to Xiangyang and was finally surrounded by the Changshan Army, he would not even have a way out!

Liu Biao did not have a deep grudge with the Changshan King Liu Chen, but he, Liu Bei, had an irreconcilable relationship with the Changshan King. Contradiction!

He would rather choose Cao Cao than Liu Chen!

"The subordinates understand!"

Xu Shu directly mounted his horse and asked Taishi Ci and Guan Hai to lead their trusted followers and use the military flag to call out troops and generals.

The resting army of more than 100,000 and nearly 200,000 people was immediately mobilized and marched towards Xiangyang.

"Military advisor, isn't this the direction to Xiangyang? Liu Bei asked in surprise.

"Not far ahead is Changban Slope, which is densely forested and not conducive to cavalry charges.

We need to use this place to avoid the pursuit of the cavalry behind us, and at the same time confuse the enemy. It seems that we are heading towards Xiangyang, but we need to change lanes and enter Sichuan halfway!"

Xu Shu gave the order while explaining to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei nodded repeatedly.

Taishi Ci and Guan Hai had already led their troops to Changbanpo. Seeing that Liu Bei still did not leave, Xu Shu warned him:"My lord, please leave quickly. Don't delay!"

"Military advisor, be careful!"

Liu Bei had no ink marks and left with the army.

Guan Yu rode his horse and commanded the soldiers while guarding Liu Bei as he left.

After Xu Shu took a deep look, he lined up his troops near Dangyang Bridge to guard against the pursuers behind him. To.

More and more soldiers are leaving, but it is naturally impossible for an army of hundreds of thousands to completely retreat in a short time.

"Military advisor, retreat first and let me deal with the aftermath!"Zhang Fei came to Xu Shu's side and said

"General Zhang, please leave quickly. I have a way to escape!"Xu Shu said with a faint smile.

"Military advisor, stop lying! Zhang Fei said with a sneer:"

Do you really think that Zhang Yide can't see it?" A military advisor or a scholar can be so brave, but I am not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death!

The military advisor is very resourceful and can make suggestions for my elder brother. I, Zhang Yide, am only brave and brave, so I can naturally tell the difference between what is important and what is important!"

Just when Xu Shu was about to persuade him, the roar of rolling earth dragons appeared!

Zhao Yun led the cavalry in pursuit. The billowing smoke and dust covered the sky and directly pulled back the humble two people!

After seeing the military flag with the word 'Zhao', Xu Shu With a horrified look on his face, he said with a wry smile:"It seems we can't leave!"

"Zhao Yun!!!"

Zhang Fei also looked horrified, his dark face turned pale, and then he forced a calm smile and said:

"I, Zhang Fei from Yan, have long wanted to meet Changshan Zhao Zilong! Now I finally have a chance to compete!"

The expressions of Xu Shu's defensive troops left behind changed drastically when they saw Zhao Yun and the White Dragon Riders, and even the lineup became a little restless!

Just one face-to-face meeting brought the military formation to the edge of collapse. This is what it is now. The imposing manner of Changshan Zhao Zilong, who shocked the world!

When the distance between the two sides narrowed to two or three hundred meters, Zhang Fei rode out and shouted in the distance:"I am Zhang Fei from Yan, Zhao Zilong, do you dare to fight?!"

The roar was like thunder, and the sound shook for ten miles!

Many of the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army behind them were deafened by Zhang Fei's roar, and some even had tinnitus and bleeding. This shows that the momentum is powerful and the sound is amazing!

However, the White Dragon Cavalry led by Zhao Yun, The order was forbidden, the momentum was fierce, but it had no impact at all. With an indomitable murderous intention, he charged forward!

Zhao Yun took the lead, riding a shining jade lion, holding a silver gentian gun, wearing a silver helmet and silver armor, carrying an unparalleled thunder The attack was coming!

He didn't even pay attention to Zhang Fei. He glanced at the retreating army of more than 100,000 people, as well as the 30,000 to 40,000 troops formed by Xu Shu, and his eyes suddenly became sharp!

"Charge with me!"

Zhao Yun didn't care about Zhang Fei's provocation. Changshan Zhao Zilong, who is now powerful in the world, does not need to prove himself through fighting with generals!

He, Zhao Yun, is the best in the world and a peerless military general!

Liu Chen's order to him was to hold him back. Although Liu Bei asked him to try not to fight with Liu Bei's army to avoid being damaged,

Zhao Yun didn't care at all!

He only had one idea, and that was to bite Liu Bei and then annihilate Liu Bei's army!

"yes!"

The White Dragon Cavalry soldiers behind him roared in unison, but the number was only five thousand, but it gave people the momentum of a lineup of fifty thousand!

Zhang Fei's eyes suddenly shrank when he came out to fight as a general. Zhao Yun seemed to have no intention of fighting as a general!

"Zhao Zilong, are you afraid of me, Zhang Fei?!"Zhang Fei said provocatively.

But as the distance got closer, seeing that the distance between the two sides was less than 100 meters, Zhang Fei finally panicked and quickly charged.

If he stayed where he was, he would be hit by the charging cavalry. Flying!

Boom-- on one side were more than five thousand Changshan White Dragon Riders, on the other was Zhang Fei's charge, and behind him was Xu Shu's formation with a pale face.

The two sides quickly got closer, and Zhao Yun was the first to encounter Zhang Fei. Fei, the gentian bright silver gun in his hand was swung directly, stabbing Zhang Fei with the force of thunder.

Qiang -

In just one round, Zhang Fei made a shocking discovery. His eyes clearly saw Zhao Yun taking action, but his body There is no time to react.

This is the transmission speed from the optic nerve to the brain, and then the brain issues instructions to the limbs. There is a delay! It is simply called a slow response!

And this slowness makes Zhang Fei unable to block Zhao Yun's blow at all, but In one round, he was directly stabbed in the left arm.

If it weren't for his fighting instinct, Zhang Fei quickly dodged sideways, but the blow hit his chest! It was too fast!

The attack speed was too fast!

Poof! ——The head of the gun penetrated Zhang Fei's arm, and he didn't have time to scream. Zhao Yun swung the gun and threw Zhang Fei away.

Regardless of Zhang Fei's life or death, Zhao Yun moved towards Xu Shu's formation unabated. Launch a charge.

For Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei and others are not important at all. Holding back Liu Bei's army is the primary goal!

Zhang Fei, flying in the air, finally understood one thing at this moment. He could not even fight with Zhao Yun. He has no qualifications!

He can't resist just one blow!

The distance between life and death is so close!

Snap -

After falling to the ground with serious injuries, Zhang Fei felt the oncoming cavalry troops and could only force Holding on to his last breath, he rolled to avoid being trampled to death. The

White Dragon Cavalry soldiers also ignored Zhang Fei on the ground and charged directly in with great momentum. Following Zhao Yun, they rushed towards Xu Shu's battle formation!
