Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu
Chapter 563: Hua Xiong sends troops
Hua Xiong looked thoughtful. Cao Cao had Yuzhou and Yanzhou in his hands. Plus Xuzhou, even if he relied on Liu Biao, it would be dangerous.
"With the general's bravery, he only needs to lead ten thousand people to take advantage of the situation in Yuzhou. Since Cao's army is short of food and is trapped in Xuzhou for our army, the general can take advantage of the situation to capture Yanzhou." Seeing Hua Xiong's move, Jian Yong continued.
"Cao's army has strong troops and horses. Let me, General, think about it for a while before making a final decision." Hua Xiong said.
"General, although Cao's army is strong, Xuzhou still has 50,000 soldiers and horses. If General Hua is willing to help, Cao's army will not have anything to worry about." Jian Yong said.
After Jian Yong left, Hua Xiong thought deeply and immediately summoned the generals in the army. He glanced at everyone and Hua Xiong said slowly: "Cao Cao is cruel. I have been ordered to attack the land of Yuzhou. You should work together to conquer Yuzhou."
.”
"Here." The military generals said with fists in their arms, especially the generals who initially followed Hua Xiong. They admired Hua Xiong extremely, otherwise they would not have followed Hua Xiong to this day.
Guarding Yuzhou were Cao Jun's generals Jin and Lejin. These two men had followed Cao Cao for many years and were very strategic in marching and fighting. At this time, they had 8,000 soldiers and horses. At this time, Cao Cao's army was not only attacking Xuzhou.
, also sent troops and horses to attack Henan Yin, which can be said to be a two-place battle.
Hua Xiong's mobilization of soldiers and horses did not go unnoticed by Cao Jun. After Yu Jin learned about it, he ordered soldiers and horses from all over the city to stick to the city and immediately sent fast horses to inform Yanzhou of the news. Hua Xiong had 20,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and Hua Xiong was brave and good at fighting. He should not be underestimated.
watch for.
After Cao Cao learned the news, he frowned. Although Yuzhou had experienced a locust plague, it was a state and county rich in food. In time, it could provide more food and grass for the army. After Hua Xiong occupied Liang and Pei, he not only
After taking refuge with Liu Biao and secretly making friends with Liu Bei, Cao Cao really wanted to deal with Hua Xiong. It is always uneasy to have such tigers and wolves in the territory. As long as Xuzhou is captured, Hua Xiong will not last long.
, then Cao Cao will use cruel facts to make Hua Xiong understand that even with Liu Biao as his backer, he can never even think about plotting Yuzhou.
Xi Ce said: "Hua Xiong has 20,000 troops and thousands of cavalry in his hands. If the Jingzhou army takes the opportunity to send troops, Yuzhou will be in danger. If Yuzhou is lost, Hua Xiong can march straight into Yanzhou." Since Liu Biao inherited the throne.
After that, the thoughts of some aristocratic families in Yanzhou became more lively. Compared with Shanyang Marquis, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty had a great attraction for them. Cao Cao knew this well, but Yanzhou was in turmoil. Waiting for him
After freeing up their hands, it's time for these little boys to give their heads.
Hua Xiong prepared to send troops to attack Yuzhou, which was unexpected by Cao Cao. After all, Yuzhou had experienced a locust plague. Even Hua Xiong was greatly affected. Of course, he also knew that Hua Xiong took the opportunity to recruit troops. It is said that Hua Xiong had just formed a large army.
He will not easily attack Yuzhou and make enemies with him.
"I suspect that the Holy Father secretly promised Hua Xiong something." Cao Cao snorted coldly. He was increasingly dissatisfied with Liu Biao. After capturing Xuzhou, and after the rule was stable, he would own Yuzhou, Yanzhou, and Xuzhou.
His strength will reach a very high level. If he sends troops to pacify Qingzhou, it won't matter what Liu Biao does. Besides, he has Liu Yu's son Liu He in his hands, which is also a crucial step.
"Lord, we should send envoys to Hua Xiong to make peace." Xi Ce said. The war has progressed to this point. As long as Pengcheng and Xiapi are conquered, Yuzhou will belong to Shanyang Marquis. Naturally, they don't want to give up. Xi Ce also wants to
Faintly feeling that his time was running out, he also wanted to help Cao Cao pacify Xuzhou in his last days.
Xi Ce knew that Cao Cao was a man with great ambitions. Like the Marquis of Jin, he hired people regardless of their origins. Whether they were from poor families or from aristocratic families, they could be reused. Compared with Bingzhou's recruitment order, Yanzhou's recruitment order was more effective.
, this also depends on the attitude of the two parties towards the aristocratic family.
"Send the order to the ban, strictly guard the city, and do not go out to fight with Hua Xiong. After I return to the army, Hua Xiong will definitely die without a burial place." Cao Cao said coldly: "Send the order to the army to attack Xuzhou tomorrow."
With Liu Ye's efforts, he finally built the Pili Chariot. In Xi Ce's eyes, the power of these Pili Chariots was much inferior, mainly in terms of range. According to his observation, the Pili Chariots in the Bingzhou Army had the lowest range.
It can reach two hundred steps. At such a distance, it can cause great trauma to the defenders. The most powerful thing about the Thunderbolt Chariot is not its lethality, but its shock. Just imagine what the defenders would do when they see huge rocks falling from the sky.
In my mind, the defenders at Jiguan were not weak at first, but they were captured by the Bingzhou Army under a thunderous chariot.
"The craftsmen who built the Thunderbolt Chariot are all imprisoned in one place. They are not allowed to move around without orders, and no one else is allowed to come near." Cao Cao said, he didn't want the Thunderbolt Chariot to be known to the princes as soon as possible. The longer such a sharp weapon is kept secret, the more likely it will be.
The effect will be greater. Besides, there are also sharp weapons such as bed crossbows in the army. Different from the bed crossbows in the hands of Lu Bu and Yuan Shao, these are made by craftsmen ordered by Yuan Shu. The range of these bed crossbows can reach 300
step.
With a range of three hundred steps, it is absolutely invincible on the battlefield. According to the information he learned, even the crossbows in Bingzhou and Jizhou cannot reach such a range.
Shouchun's craftsmen were also placed in Yanzhou by Cao Cao.
The news that Hua Xiong led 20,000 troops to attack Yuzhou relieved Liu Bei's frown a lot. As long as Hua Xiong could firmly contain Cao Jun in Yuzhou, Cao Jun would inevitably retreat. The locusts alleviated Cao Jun's pressure to a certain extent.
We need grain and grass, but it is not easy to transport grain and grass from Yanzhou to Xuzhou, and the consumption along the way is quite large.
However, judging from the posture of Cao's army, they did not intend to withdraw easily. The craftsmen in the army were still building siege equipment. This also puzzled Liu Bei. There were 20,000 defenders in the city. Even if Cao's army had 30,000, how could it be done?
Would Xuzhou be captured so easily?
"My lord, when the Marquis of Jin captured Hedong, he once captured Jiguan with eight thousand defenders in one day." Sun Qian reminded.
Liu Bei frowned and thought deeply: "In my opinion, Cao Jun has such a sharp weapon as the Thunderbolt Chariot?" The matter of the Thunderbolt Chariot is no secret among the princes. Liu Bei also envied the Bingzhou Army for having such a sharp weapon, thinking to himself
Let’s look back at how we traded with the Bingzhou Army to obtain the Thunderbolt Chariot. After installing the Thunderbolt Chariot on the city, even if Cao’s army had 100,000 soldiers, only 20,000 people would be enough to defend Xuzhou.
"My lord, we have to be on guard." Chen Deng said: "If Cao's army has a thunder chariot, Xuzhou will be in danger."
Liu Bei worriedly said: "The thunderbolt chariot can throw huge rocks up the city wall, which is extremely powerful. Only by taking countermeasures early will we be safe."
