Three Kingdoms: The rebellious son of the Cao family married the queen at the beginning

"My lord, General Jin, Li Zheng, and Li Dian of the State of Wei led a large army to attack Zhongli, and are now marching towards Yinling!"

"what?"

Yuan Shu looked at Yan Xiang in panic. How could Wei's soldiers have crossed the Huai River so quickly? Could their defense be paperless?
Zhongli City was easy to defend but difficult to attack, and with his own brother in charge, how could it be captured so quickly.

Yan Xiang said: "Your Majesty, we don't know what method the opponent used to attack the city. The soldiers in the entire Zhongli City surrendered, and Mr. Yuan Yin was killed. We have to think about Yinling to send reinforcements."

"Lü Bu and Zhang Liao led an army to station on the bank of the Huaihe River just to attract our attention. Their purpose is to cover up Yu Jin and others' surprise attack on Zhongli."

"However, there are many traps along the way from Zhongli to Yinling. We still have time to support Yinling."

Yuan Shu thought for a while, Yinling is an important town, once Yinling is lost, the east gate of Jiujiang County will be opened, and the Wei army will swarm in, and there is no way to stop it.

Yuan Shu looked at Li Feng and said, "Li Feng, you lead [-] recruits to support Yinling, and you must guard Yinling for me."

"Report, report, it's not good, Yinling City was captured by Yu Jin's army!"

"what?"

"How could it be so fast!"

Yuan Shu was horrified, how long has it been?There are ten thousand guards in Yinling City, the walls are five feet high, and the moat is even wider than Zhongli's. How did they rush in?

Even if they fill in the moat, they won't be able to fill it up within three or two days.

"The opponent used a strange method to pave a road in front of the city gate, and then the siege crossbow broke through the city gate."

The siege crossbow broke through the city gate?

Are you kidding me, how big a siege crossbow would it take to break through the city gate?

Yan Xiang said bitterly: "Your Majesty, we must ask Sun Ce for reinforcements, otherwise we will be in danger."

When Yuan Shu was in trouble, he could ask Sun Ce for reinforcements, but it would be a bit unrealistic for him to attack Wu County or Kuaiji County. After all, the soldiers and horses of these two counties did not move.

If you want to contain Cao Shuo, you must attack Cao Shuo's back, otherwise his army will not retreat.

"Let the general contact Sun Ce to attack Guangling County from the south, and then go around to the rear of the Wei army."

Although it may not be successful, at least he can contain Lu Bu and Zhang Liao on the north bank of the Huaihe River. As long as they both leave, he can withdraw the soldiers along the Huaihe River.

However, not long after the envoy left, a soldier stumbled into the hall again.

"Sir, King of the Cavalry, we found Cao Shuo's banner on the north bank of the Huaihe River!"

Cao Shuo?

What is he doing in Yuzhou?
It wouldn't be Jiujiang County that wanted to attack him in an all-round way.

Yuan Shu hurriedly asked, "Where is Cao Shuo? How many people are there?"

"Cao Shuo led an army of fifty thousand and stationed in Longkang City."

Yan Xiang hurriedly asked: "How many generals did he bring?"

"I don't think much about it, Cao Shuo dispatched soldiers and horses from Yuzhou!"

Yuan Shu wiped off his cold sweat. This bastard is going to destroy himself, and he must not let the other party succeed. "Defend the Huaihe River for me. Li Feng and Lei Bo, you lead [-] soldiers, and take back Yinling City for me."

"promise!"

After the two led the army to leave, Yuan Shu sent someone to urge General Ji Ling to attack Guangling County as soon as possible. As long as they can capture Guangling County, their pressure will be much less.

In Yinling City, Yu Jin looked at Zhuge Liang with a smile on his face and said, "Young Master Zhuge, what should we do next?"

Zhuge Liang pretended to be deep and said: "Yinling is an important town in the east of Jiujiang County. Yuan Shu will definitely send troops to capture it. Under the current situation, Yuan Shu will not call the defenders of Shouchun and Dangtu."

"Only when he defeats his reinforcements and makes Yuan Shu fearful, will he take the general seriously. As long as he dares to mobilize the defenders along the Huai River, our mission will be completed."

Yu Jin hurriedly asked, "Will Yuan Shu really send an army here?"

Yuan Shu's army was all along the banks of the Huaihe River and the Yangtze River. There were not many soldiers in the city of Hefei. Where did he get the soldiers?

Zhuge Liang explained: "According to Jin Yiwei's report, Yuan Shu recruited [-] recruits in Hefei and many soldiers along the Yangtze River. These [-] recruits are his last trump card."

"Besides, Yuan Shu bought us no less than [-] sets of equipment. He will definitely equip some of the recruits and then show off in front of us."

Yu Jin said depressedly: "Why do we want to sell Yuan Shu's equipment?"

"Of course it's for food. Droughts have hit Yuzhou, Yanzhou, and Qingzhou one after another, and locust plagues have even appeared in Qingzhou. Gu Yong, the prefect of Kuaiji County, also said that there has been almost no rain in Yangzhou in the past month."

"Such a large-scale drought will definitely affect this year's harvest. If we don't purchase grain in advance, the price of grain will skyrocket. What will happen to so many people in Wei?"

Yu Jin nodded, even if they were a little bit harder, they couldn't cause chaos in the country due to lack of food.

However, their equipment and the equipment purchased by Yuan Shu still have a great advantage, those that will be eliminated after all, will not pose much threat to them.

"My lord is really a good emperor who loves the people!"

Zhuge Liang smiled badly, and said, "The equipment Yuan Shu bought is relatively heavy. Southerners are relatively short in stature and cannot withstand the weight of armor after a long time. Moreover, their war horses are also of inferior quality, and they cannot drag soldiers for a long time. fighting."

Everyone was amazed, this step by step was so delicately designed, Yuan Shu thought he had taken advantage of it, but in fact he was seeking his own death.

Zhuge Liang took out a simplified map, put it next to several people, and said: "Yuan Shu's army does not need so many soldiers from us to deal with it. I suggest that you divide your troops and let some of them wear Yuan Shujun's clothes to swindle the surrounding area. county seat."

He pointed out a few county towns to everyone, and everyone looked surprised, "Why go to the south? Wouldn't it be better to sneak attack the north? This would allow Lu Bu and Zhang Liao to cross the river quickly."

"No, the north is where Yuan Shu's key defense is. They will definitely deal with it carefully, and there are too many guards in the counties to the north. If we send fewer people, we won't be able to accomplish anything. If there are too many, the other party will become suspicious."

"Ji Ling in the south would never have imagined that instead of helping the soldiers on the north bank of the Huaihe River to cross the river, we would sneak up on his back."

Li Zheng suddenly realized, "This is called surprise and surprise!"

Zhuge Liang coughed dryly twice, and said, "This is a slap in the face, our purpose is not to sneak attack Ji Ling."

Several people asked with puzzled faces: "Then what are we going to do?"

Zhuge Liang touched his forehead and said speechlessly: "Have you forgotten? Our goal is Lujiang County and Jiangxia County. This place is just a bait. Of course, the more chaos the better."

"This……"
