Extreme Yama System

From the very beginning, the war was full of calculation and intrigue. And killing and gore.

Whether it is Cao Cao or Yuan Shao, whoever wins this battle will lay the foundation for the largest sergeant group in the north.

From the very beginning, Yuan Shao had the initiative in the battle. Who made him so many.

The first was an oath, scolding Cao Cao to the bone, trying to gain the upper hand in righteousness. Then he ordered Yan Liang to lead his army to attack the "White Horse", another key ferry along the Yellow River. He was attacked by Cao Cao himself. Not only beheaded Yan Liang, but also attacked Yuan Shao's pursuers again in the south of Yanjin, beheading the general Wen Chou.

Yuan Shao, who was defeated in the first battle, regrouped and used the huge advantage of his troops to give up the "special force" and change it to "opposite". In the Guandu area, he faced off against Cao Cao's main force and sought a decisive battle.

Cao Cao, who was not dominant in troops, soon exposed a fatal weakness of his side: logistical potential.

Although sitting on the land of the rich and the rich, food is often not something that money can buy. It has been chaotic and far less abundant than Yuan Shao's site.

The food consumption of 20,000 troops stationed for one day is extremely staggering. It was fine for a month or two, but after holding it for a full three months, Cao Cao almost lost confidence in himself.

At the critical moment, Cao Cao's advisor Xun Yu made a strong relationship, so that Cao Cao knew that he had no other way out now than gritted his teeth. So I continued to fight hard with the hope that that share may or may not appear.

But Cao Cao did seem to be haunted by luck. Just when he felt that he was about to be consumed by Yuan Shao, a turning point appeared.

Jian'an five years in October. Cao Cao, who was tormented by logistics to the brink of collapse, got a secret report that most of Yuan Shao's military rations were stored in Wuchao, twenty kilometers behind Yuan Shao's camp. And Cao Cao wanted to defeat Yuan Shao, his only hope was to surprise Wuchao and burn Yuan Shao's army supplies hoarded in Wuchao.

Cao Cao left most of the elite to continue guarding the Guandu camp. He himself led 5,000 soldiers to cross the river quietly in the dark, then detoured from the path and headed straight for Wuchao. It's a little bit mean.

Yuan Shao, who received the news, was shocked. While sending heavy troops to attack Cao Cao's camp overnight, he personally led the troops to rescue Wu Chao.

But it's all too late. Cao's army had already been on guard at the Guandu camp, waiting to be unable to defend it, and it would be impossible to pry it open for a while. And once the fire in Wuchao is ignited, it cannot be put out by manpower at all.

This was the turning point of one of the most decisive battles in the war.

No matter which plane the logistics is in, no matter what level of war it is, it is an existence labeled as "vital".

Even though Yuan Shao's army still had a very strong fighting force at this time, its logistical supplies were destroyed, and it was impossible to gather this food again for two or three months. Who can go without food for two or three months? Only dead people!

In addition, the fire was raging into the sky at night, and it was clear from dozens of miles away. As long as you had a little experience, you would know that something was wrong.

The most feared thing in the confrontation between the two armies is the situation that Yuan Shao is facing now. Logistics was destroyed, and there was no way to hide it. The blow to the morale and momentum of the army was devastating. So there is a word called "rout".

A thousand miles away, this is the situation that Yuan Shao needs to face now. It's not even an exaggeration to describe it as "one move loses, and the whole game loses".

The loss of logistics, together with the momentum of collapse, can never be recovered. Not only did the soldiers in Yuan Shao's base camp start to scatter in a panic, even Zhang He and Gao Lan, who were arranged by Yuan Shao to raid the Cao army camp in Guandu, also raised their troops and surrendered after discovering the fire in Wuchao.

The situation was over, Yuan Shao could only take a few hundred personal soldiers and fled back to Hebei in a hurry. So far, the Battle of Guandu is over. It also allowed Cao Cao to determine the position of the first military group in the north as the sole overlord at the same time.

From the first month of Jian'an five years until October, the ups and downs of this war can be described as thrilling. Not only did both parties grit their teeth and kill with red eyes, but the various princes who were closely watching the battle were also terrified. The outcome of the war was unexpected.

"Your Majesty. Yuan Shao's situation is over. Cao thief's position in the north has been consolidated, but it will take a few years to completely clear Yuan Shao's forces. Should we also let Liu Zhang hand over Chengdu?" Chen Gong accompanied Liu Xie to the station On the city wall of Nanguang City, take a walk. It took me a long time to say this.

There are two crops of rice seeds that Liu Xie obtained from Lord Yama, which is simply unfavorable for appeasing the refugees in his hands, accumulating strength, and consolidating the area under control in the rear.

It is said that the troubled times are not peaceful, and the world is full of bandits and bandits. But most of them are forced. If he can't survive, he embarks on the road of burning, killing and robbing. Now that there are new rice seeds, the output is still so amazing. In addition, Liu Xie said that as long as you come down the mountain, the land and seeds will be divided, and the tax will only be 30%.

If you change someone in the official position, such as Liu Zhang and his like, the refugee mountain bandits may not believe it. But Liu Xie's external banner is "Blood Banner Army", which to some extent can be regarded as "mountain bandits". So, when the first group of bandits walked out of the cottage and started to eat crabs for the first time. One after another, a large number of people hiding in the mountains came out.

The skyrocketing population within the control area has not only brought about the abundance of labor, but also the expansion of the source of troops.

The main battle force was controlled by Liu Xie to ten thousand people, of which eight thousand were blood flag troops who had drunk Shenshui, and the remaining two thousand were auxiliary soldiers carefully selected from the refugees.

The soldiers who were not in the main battle were all scattered in various towns, with a total of more than 30,000, and they were collectively called the militia. No need to feed. Farming in peacetime and training in his spare time, Liu Xie paid only a mere "there are militiamen in the family, and the tax and grain will be reduced by half".

In Lu Bu's words, that is, the quality of this kind of militia is far better than the "strong men" that are popular everywhere. Compared with the elites of the various princes, although they are somewhat insufficient, they are not much worse than ordinary sergeants. When the war comes together, if you gather up and train for a month or two, you will be able to go directly to battle.

"Wait, wait until the end of this month, the rice in the field is harvested~www.readwn.com~ Let's start a showdown with Liu Zhang." Liu Xie supported the wall and looked into the distance. Without turning his head, he replied to Chen Gong.

"Okay, Your Majesty. I will make arrangements in advance for that."

"Well. By the way, how is the situation on Fazheng's side? How many people have fallen to us?"

"It has been determined that Liu Zhang's subordinate Biejia is engaged in Zhang Song. The rest of the people are still waiting and watching. I guess they all want to see what we plan to do next."

Wait until you get down from the top of the city. Liu Xie returned to his residence. He screened back, closed the door, and habitually walked to one of the shrines and knelt down, muttering words.

The shrine is the statue of Yama. This habit was learned by Liu Xie from the original eight thousand soldiers. It was also some soldiers who first sought inner comfort, and they had seen the miracle of Lord Yama, so they pinched the statue and worshipped by themselves. But the feedback from the power of belief later shocked them. It spread all over the barracks one by one, and then influenced layer by layer, until Liu Xie also joined the worship of the statue. Even this habit has spread to the homes of ordinary people in the areas occupied by the Blood Banner Army.

And Liu Xie found that his worship effect on the shrine was obviously different from others. In addition to the power of faith that feeds back, there is a clear sense of connection. If he has a desire in his heart, he will have the opportunity to be answered. For example, those miraculous two-season rice seeds were obtained when he worshipped the statue.

"Lord Yama. I'm going to start the attack on Liu Zhang early next month. I hope Lord Yama can give me some more divine water to help me."

"Can."

The result of Liu Xie's prayer was that in the next second, three large tanks appeared in his house, and inside the tank was the kind of "sacred water" that he could never forget. Looking at the weight, it should be enough for 2,000 people.

"Thank you Lord Yama for your reward. Liu Xie will definitely take Sichuan completely within this year!"
