Extreme Yama System

Chapter 445: Jingzhou Phase 1 ends

The war that suddenly ignited in Jingzhou was quickly spread by soldiers fleeing from Yidu and Xiangyang, as well as by ordinary people in nearby villages and towns.

The blood flag army of Sichuan came. Yidu fell, Xiangyang fell, and Liu Biao, the pastor of Jingzhou, fled to Jiangling!

The facts are far more serious than the rumors.

Liu Biao was led away from Xiangyang by five hundred personal soldiers at noon on the second day of the offensive and defensive battle in Xiangyang. The direction he retreated was indeed Gangneung. Along the way, Liu Biao's mind was always terrified. It never occurred to me that in an offensive and defensive battle, the defending side would actually be outnumbered by the siege side. There are more than 40,000 elites in Jingzhou, plus more than 20,000 auxiliary soldiers in the surrounding military towns, how can they not stop the 30,000 blood flag troops attacking the city? !

And if you want to withdraw, you don't dare to. Once the large-scale withdrawal of troops, the entire defense system will collapse in an instant, and only more people will die under the collapse. Even Liu Biao would lose the chance to escape.

As soon as Liu Biao arrived at the edge of the Yangtze River, he saw more than 10,000 Jiangling defenders who were preparing to cross the river to come to aid. After the meeting, Liu Biao strongly suppressed the idea of ​​turning his horse's head and going to Xiangyang, and ordered Jiangling reinforcements to return to defend Jiangling, leaving some ships on the riverside waiting to pick up the defeated defenders of Xiangyang City.

After Liu Biao's order, the Jiangling army who rushed in quickly understood that Xiangyang could not hold back! It sounds like a myth.

Xiangyang City, which was guarded by tens of thousands of troops, was so lost? How many people are in the blood flag army? How can you win Xiangyang in just two days?

No matter what Jiangling reinforcements think, anyway, the matter has come to this point, and it is useless to think too much, so protect Liu Biao and return to Jiangling. But they didn't know when they left the riverside for less than half a day. Xiangyang City collapsed and arrived. In other words, Xiangyang fell half a day after Liu Biao left Xiangyang.

The Jiangling soldiers who were guarding the riverside were horrified. Looking at the defeated soldiers from Xiangyang, they were not only embarrassed, but also pitiful in number. A total of less than three thousand!

"Brother, let's go, the cavalry of the Blood Banner Army is still chasing and killing. It has been chasing for two days. Maybe they will chase to the riverside, and they will not be able to leave by then."

"Leave now? Don't wait for the people behind?"

"Wait! The generals are all captured, and they all run slowly behind, either dead or scattered, and no one will come over. Hurry up and sail!"

There were actually not many chasing troops, there were only 500 cavalry in total, which was Zhang Liao's intention to stay at the end to kill the routed troops. Although Liu Biao deliberately let go, he was unwilling to let too many soldiers from Xiangyang City retreat to Jiangling. So they chased them all the way, dispersed them, and finally defeated and fled to the riverside with less than 3,000 defenders of Xiangyang City.

And the other side. Xingye rushed to Zhang Fei's department near Xiangyang, and now the flag on the city wall has been replaced by the blood-red, wordless flag of the Blood Banner Army. He only had five hundred cavalry in his hands, but he dared not go up to provoke the blood flag troops who had conquered the fortified city within a few days. He hurriedly turned his horse's head and went back the same way, informing Guan Yu, who was still on the road, not to come again.

In this way, the first strategic concept of the Blood Banner Army has been initially achieved. Completely opened the door to Jingzhou.

Liu Xie, who was far away in Chengdu, was counting the time. He firmly believed that Lu Bu and Zhang Liao would not let him down. Therefore, after the scheduled time for the first wave of attacks arrived, and before receiving the report of the results of the battle, the blood flag army's first attack. A group of reinforcements gathered again in Badong and Fuling, and then rushed to Xiangyang and Yidu.

Here, Liu Xie and Chen Gong have also repeatedly studied the reinforcements. They predicted: Yidu's defense strength will definitely be far lower than Xiangyang. Therefore, in terms of losses, the troops of Zhang Liao and Gao Shun who attacked Xiangyang should be greater than those of Lv Bu and Wu Yi. Therefore, in the first batch of reinforcements, 20,000 militiamen went to Xiangyang, and 10,000 militiamen went to Yidu.

In the baggage team, there were also three hundred Yamashen Thunders newly prepared for each of the two legions. and a consumable ordnance.

On February 22, when Liu Xie received the battle report sent back by Lu Bu and Zhang Liao, the first two reinforcements had arrived in Xiangyang and Yidu. And Liu Xie also hurriedly summoned his main advisors to study the two battle reports in his hand.

To be honest, the battle on the front line in Yidu was as expected by Liu Xie and others, and the city of Yidu was destroyed in half a day under Lu Bu. But I didn't expect Xiangyang City to resist so strongly. In order to achieve the order to take Xiangyang within three days, Zhang Liao's loss this time was unexpectedly large.

"Your Majesty. General Zhang Liao and General Gao Shun suffered a huge loss this time, and they can add a thousand blood flag troops to the main force." Chen Gong suggested.

But Liu Xie has his own ideas. The main force of the Blood Banner Army was controlled at 30,000, and now there are still 10,000 in Sichuan. And he still has 6,000 divine water in his hand that he has saved. That is to say, on the premise that Lord Yama did not give Shenshui again, Liu Xie could still arm the main force of the blood flag army of 6,000 people, or even be greedy, and it is also possible to arm a thousand blood flag army elites.

But now the war is on. Are you going to play some cards in your hand? This is inappropriate in Liu Xie's opinion.

"No need. Zhang Liao has already conquered Xiangyang, and now the situation has been opened. When the news spreads, Zhang Liao's army has already pointed at Jiangling City. And Lu Bu's plan to enter the south will also complete the attack on Lingling. At that time, we will The first phase of the strategic vision can be completed. There is no need to send the main force there.”

Chen Gong nodded and said with a smile, "In this way, Zhang Liao and General Gao Shun will probably have to spend more time."

"It's inevitable. The battle situation will be more complicated in the future. You can't rely on reinforcements alone. They also have to use their brains to fight." Liu Xie also smiled. Then he picked up the pen and wrote a letter to Lv Bu and Zhang Liao each. Then send off quickly.

"When we weaken Liu Biao's power a little more, we can force him to the front lines of Jiangxia, Baqiu, and Guiyang. Then we will wait for the big drama to be staged."

"Hahaha, what Your Majesty said is interesting, it is true, it will be a great show."

The two looked at each other and smiled, very happy.

Everything was as Chen Gong and Liu Xie expected. On the fifth day of the third lunar month, the first army led by Lu Bu arrived at Wuling and attacked the city for half a day. The defenders in the city surrendered. Take Wuling.

Afterwards, Lu Bu once again left hundreds of soldiers to guard Wuling, and he continued to lead the First Army and the descendants of Wuling to kill Lingling. Wherever he went, all the original military towns in Jingzhou surrendered at once, daring not to delay for a moment. So much so that when Lü Bu led his troops to Lingling on March 20, his troops numbered more than 40,000. More than 10,000 of them were Jingzhou troops who had surrendered.

Lingling was more straightforward than Wuling before, and before the troops of Lu Bu's brigade arrived, they had already surrendered their flag. Without spending a single soldier, he fell into the hands of the Blood Banner Army.

So far, the first stage strategic goal of the First Army Corps, where Lv Bu is located, has been completely achieved.

As for Zhang Liao's subordinate of the Second Army of the Blood Banner Army, although the start was not smooth, the subsequent battle seemed to be a lot smoother.

The Second Corps, which was reinforced by reinforcements, attacked Gangneung on March 15, five days after facing each other at Gangneung Castle. This time, Zhang Liao learned the lessons of Xiangyang before. It was Yama Shenlei who opened the way. After pouring out a hundred and fifty pieces without money, he began to press on the soldiers~www.readwn.com~ At dawn on March 16th, Zhang Liao used the siege soldiers and Shenlei to bombard them. In order to cover, ten Yamas were transported across the moat and arrived at the gate to the east of Jiangling City. Then fire. A third of the city gate collapsed in the violent explosion. A fatal opening was opened to this fortified city.

The battle lasted until the evening of March 16th. Jiangling City fell. The remaining 5,000 defenders surrendered, and the remaining 2,000 soldiers fled to Jiangxia with Liu Biao and other relatives.

On the fifth day of April, Liu Xie received two battle reports in Chengdu. After watching it, I looked up and screamed, excited. In the past two months of attack, Jingzhou from Xiangyang to Jiangling to Lingling, all the land west of this line is the territory of his blood flag army!

This knife was fast, accurate, and ruthless. Liu Biao was caught off guard, and he cut away two-thirds of Jingzhou's land. Whether it is actual benefits or strategic significance, it has far-reaching significance for the entire Blood Banner Army.
