"Zhongde sees the lord and all his colleagues."

Cheng Yu led Yanzhou officials to greet Chutian and his party.

In order to attack Jizhou this time, Chu Tian led a group of civil servants and generals directly to Puyang to prepare to cross the Yellow River north.

Wei Qing, Cao Cao, Le Yi, Chen Qingzhi and other corps commanders all wore sturdy capes and hunted with capes.

Xue Rengui, Zhao Yun, Yang Ye, Yang Yanzhao, Taishi Ci and other ferocious generals were brave and good at fighting.

Joan of Arc, Liang Hongyu, and the Four Tigers of the Northern Army of the Guards were even more eager to try.

After giving birth to her child, Hua Mulan went out with Chutian again, and was unwilling to stay in the backyard to watch her family. She was more willing to stay on the battlefield.

Hua Mulan was wearing a leather armor with two Tang knives hanging around her waist. She was as sharp as ever. She once again commanded the reconnaissance corps and followed Chutian around like a few years ago.

Cheng Yu governed Yanzhou for Chutian and appeased the aristocratic family and commoners. When he saw the old master Cao Cao, he just nodded.

Because the Chutian forces promote the separation of military and government, unless there is a shortage of talents, it is impossible for Cao Cao to manage military and internal affairs at the same time, and is only responsible for his Tiger and Leopard Army.

"The last general Xu Sheng has prepared a grain ship, and two months of grain for the 300,000 army. As long as the lord gives an order, the grain can be transported to Liyang."

Xu Sheng came to Dongjun to collect all the ships and transport military supplies.

The water volume of Baigou was not enough to use a large grain ship, but because of Xu You's suggestion, the water from Qi was diverted to Baigou, so that the water level of Baigou rose, and it was only passed. Zhao Long did not pay attention to Baigou, so Xu Sheng's grain-carrying ship could run amok in Baigou.

In this crusade against Jizhou, Chutian only had time to assemble an army of 300,000. In the rear, barracks in various places are recruiting soldiers and horses to form Shenji battalions and other arms to supplement the losses on the front line.

"The Qingzhou Army in Gaotang was ordered to make preparations for crossing the river and contain Tian Qi in the plain. The secret order was only to make an attack trend. Unless Sun Bin and Tian Dan left the plain county, they could cross the Yellow River north."

"Let Sang Hongyang preside over the rear finances. When recruiting troops, I want to maintain the normal operation of the finances."

When Chutian came to Dongjun, Yu Jin and Sang Hongyang were notified immediately.

Yu Jin needed 40,000 people from the Qingzhou Army to contain Sun Bin and Tian Dan, but it was not easy. Fortunately, the Yellow River served as a barrier.

Chu Tian personally commanded the army and attacked Yecheng head-on.

His personal visit to Jizhou will cause uproar throughout the Eastern Han Dynasty.

The Jingzhou Army, Jiangdong Army, and Guanzhong Army will all be ready to move.

When Cao Cao fought Guandu, everyone wanted to overthrow Cao Cao from the rear.

It wasn't that Liu Biao didn't think about attacking Cao Cao, but was thwarted by Jingnan's rebellion. Sun Ce even thought of attacking Xuchang by surprise, but was assassinated by Xu Gong's disciples. Most counties and counties in Yuzhou responded to Yuan Shao.

The Guanzhong generals expressed their neutrality, neither helping Yuan nor Cao.

Zhang Xiu originally wanted to help Yuan, but Jia Xu persuaded him to help Cao.

Chutian faced the same situation as Cao Cao in the Battle of Guandu. When he was about to confront Zhao Long, the great prince of Hebei, some princes were ready to move.

Xu You was by Chutian's side, full of confidence, Chutian wanted to take Jizhou, and he must be reused: "If you want to capture Yecheng, you must surround Yecheng and break Handan, otherwise the reinforcements from Jizhou, Youzhou, and Bingzhou will gather in Handan and continue to By supporting Yecheng, the war will be far away."

"Very good. How long will it take to capture Ye City?"

"Trial and defend the city, at least three months, as many as a year."

Xu You's judgment made Chu Tian frown slightly.

Yecheng is a huge city, and it is the first city north of the Yellow River. Its firmness is second only to the cities of Chang'an and Xiangyang.

Shen Pei is also regarded as a defender. There are also Gao Jong and Han Zhanhu guarding Yecheng. The recruitment speed of Yecheng is not slow.

Has a certain ability to counterattack.

Xia Xia Liang has already taken over the intelligence agency: "According to the information obtained from Yecheng, Zhao Long has hoarded enough food and grass for a year in Yecheng. Some of the food and grass have been consumed in the past few months, and there should be about eight to nine months of food and grass. If it's just a siege, Ye City can be captured in less than a year."

"Besieged for eight to nine months, I am afraid that Zhao Long has already captured Taiyuan."

Facing the iron hedgehog-like Yecheng, Chutian was deeply troubled.

The level of Ye City was higher than that of ordinary cities, and it was easy to defend and difficult to attack.

In particular, Yecheng was backed by Jizhou, Youzhou, and Bingzhou, which combined the strength of the three states to resist the army of Chutian.

Three states, each with 150,000 troops, would have 450,000 troops.

Some of Chutian's troops stayed behind in the four states to guard against the enemies of Jiangdong and Jingzhou, so the local troops were at a disadvantage.

However, even so, Chutian still dared to take the initiative to shake Hebei.

The soldiers of the Mongolian Empire have reached the edge of Monan, and the lords who are testing Monan will be extremely passive if Chutian does not calm down Hebei as soon as possible.

If Chutian had half the state of the Eastern Han Dynasty, then even one person would have the strength to resist the Mongol Empire.

This battle must be won.

"Is the number in the city enough to grab a city gate and welcome the army into the city?"

"The success rate of attacking the city gate with the inner army is extremely low. Gao Jiong has already ordered his soldiers to patrol the city."

"The White-robed Legion is the vanguard and arrives at the foot of Ye City. Anyone who leaves Ye City will be captured."

Chutian once again used the white robe army as the vanguard.

The North China Plain, except for several major rivers and the Taihang Mountains, is almost a flat river, and the white robe army can gallop vertically and horizontally without any scruples!

The vast majority of the strategies appear extremely pale in front of the white-robed legion galloping with thousands of horses.

As a prince of the Central Plains, Chutian had enough cavalry to fight with the princes of Hebei.

"Take orders!"

Chen Qingzhi, Xue Rengui, and Zhao Yun, with a roll of white robes, strode meteors, led the white robe army, and took the lead in crossing the river!

If it is winter now, even if you don't need a ferry, you can cross the Yellow River on solid ice.

In the Battle of Jingkang, Jin Bing chose to go south quickly in the cold winter, and quickly withdraw from the Central Plains after the ice and snow melted.

It was summer at this time, and the winter of the Battle of Jingkang was still a few months away.

In the past few months, Chutian's goal was to capture Yecheng and then divide his troops to pacify Hebei.

After the Battle of Guandu, it took Cao Cao several years to completely wipe out the influence of the Yuan family north of the Yellow River.

Chu Tian thinks that his speed should be faster than Boss Cao, after all, his team is stronger.

The White Pao Legion is full of 30,000 soldiers, and a group of soldiers were killed in the battle of Yuzhou. At present, there are only more than 20,000 cavalry, and it is too late to replenish.

The 20,000 cavalry was divided into twenty groups and transported to the north of the Yellow River with men and horses.

If it wasn't for Chutian's foresight to capture Liyang City on the other side, the Jizhou army would have been able to attack halfway.

Chen Qingzhi, the white-robed military god, has been relatively low-key since joining the Chutian camp, and his personality dictates.

Chen Qingzhi is as reliable as Zhou Yafu, but he doesn't have much sense of existence in normal times. When he actually uses it, Chutian is very reassured about Chen Qingzhi.

Chen Qingzhi camped on the other side of the river, and the next day, more than 20,000 cavalrymen of the White Pao Army had assembled and marched towards Yecheng.

20,000 white horses formed a white wave and rolled up dust in the North China Plain!

Xu You followed Chu Tian to cross the river and was shocked when he saw the white robe army, all of which were silver armor, white robes, and white horses.

He had never seen such a large and neat cavalry under Yuan Shao.

The imposing manner of the White Robe Legion is amazing, and it can play a role in deterring the enemy!

In addition, Xue Rengui and Zhao Long are two fierce generals who will open the way. When the enemy encounters the white robe army, they are often defeated with one blow!

It was said that Tang, under the offensive of the White Pao Army, did not dare to fight in the wild.

When Chu Tian came to Liyang City, he saw Zhou Yafu and Du Ruhui—they were kept out by Chu Tian for a long time, but they made a lot of contributions in pacifying Hebei.

"It is because of the help of the two that I can gain a firm foothold in Hebei. After pacifying Hebei, I will definitely be promoted and become a marquis."

Chu Tian comforted the two, which made Zhou Yafu and Du Ruhui quite excited.

A scholar dies for a confidant.

Chutian's treatment of meritorious officials has always been good.

"We, the Four Tigers of the Northern Army, please lead the five schools of the Northern Army to assist the White Pao Army in attacking Yecheng!"

Mi Fang, on behalf of the Four Tigers of the Northern Army, actively invited to fight.

Mi Fang accumulated credit for the national war and pacified Yuzhou, and Zhonglang Jiang was promoted to general. He wanted to fight in Hebei and climb up.

"Xing Daorong's injury has not yet recovered, and the Four Tigers of the Northern Army cannot attack lightly for the time being."

Chutian knew that although Mi Fang's abilities were all lacking, the victory was in every battle, and he must actively fight. The Four Tigers of the Northern Army dared to go all out.

Mi Fang was nurtured by Chutian, and her confidence was high.

Since Mi Fang's debut, there has been no defeat, and he has captured Jingzhou General Cai He alive, and his power is unstoppable...

In the gorge of the Taihang Mountains, a cavalry quickly passed through the pass of the Taihang Mountains, from the direction of Shangdang County, through Maocheng and Shexian to assist Yecheng, and the speed was fast!

Guan Yu carried the Qinglong Yanyue Saber, and his mount was a king-level warhorse from Youzhou, which traveled eight hundred times a day!

Behind Guan Yu, 20,000 cavalrymen traveled day and night, abandoning the baggage.

According to the deployment of military adviser Wang Meng, Chu Zimou was not given the opportunity to surround Yecheng, so as to ensure that the grain and grass from the counties and counties in Jizhou were transported to Yecheng, so that Yecheng could stick to it.

Otherwise, if the food and grass are exhausted, even Zhang Xun, Tian Dan, Shen Pei and other generals will not be able to defend Yecheng.

At the same time, Wang Meng wanted to take a gamble and used the time difference to send Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and King Lanling to attack the Yanzhou or Xuzhou troops that might appear on the outskirts of Yecheng!

"Second brother, if Chu Zimou dares to cross the river and come to Jizhou, let's see if my snake spear won't stab him to death!"

Zhang Fei holds the rein in one hand and the zhangba snake spear in the other. He is imposing and similar to Dian Wei. Zhang Fei became violent, and he was also a humanoid beast!

"Third brother, the two strategists advised us to be careful, and if it is unfavorable, retreat immediately. I think the two strategists are overthinking. I can still take the enemy's general's head among the ten thousand troops, not to mention the two of us. ."

Guan Yu didn't even need to hold the reins, but stroked his beard and beard with his hands, paying little attention to the advice of Wang Meng and Chen Xi.

"The two generals, Xuande and the strategist have repeatedly told me, have you forgotten?"

King Lanling saw that Guan and Zhang were too confident in their own strength, so he took out the words of Liu Bei and Wang Meng and reminded Guan Zhang.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei would still listen to Liu Bei's words to some extent, so they calmed down a bit.

Twenty thousand cavalry broke through the Taihang Mountains and drove directly to Yecheng.

The defenders of Yecheng will be Gao Jong, Han Zhanhu, and Shenpei. Gao Jong's political value is extremely high, and he is also a leader of the army.

Shen Pei was responsible for winning over the Hebei family, strengthening the city defense, and making Ye City an iron wall.

Han Zhanhu provided force protection, and Chutian's Nei Ying wanted to assassinate Gao Jiong and Shen Pei, but he would be killed by Han Zhanhu and his Sui cavalry.

The three of them cooperated with each other, and the city of Ye was impregnable.

Basically, as much food and forage as Ye City has, you can keep it for as long as you want.

Player princes are different from local princes, and there will be no situation where people in the city starve to death in order to defend the city. When they run out of food, they surrender.

This is an unwritten tacit understanding among the feudal lords of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

"My lord, cavalry, white cavalry!"

The city gate officer hurriedly reported to the court.

Trial and match fire rushed to the city.

Zhao Long and Shen Pei have been in a personal relationship for several years. Before Yuan Shao came to Hebei, Zhao Long befriended Shen Pei, and now he reuses the Hebei family, and Shen Pei's loyalty to Zhao Long is probably higher than Yuan Shao.

Zhao Long left him to guard Yecheng, and the trial partner did his best. Hearing this at this time, he did his part.

I saw a white cavalry force swept in from the outskirts of Ye City!

Looking around, it was all white ocean, the silver armor and white robes reflected the sunlight, and the eyes of Shen Pei and the defenders hurt.

Although the White Robe Legion did not do it on purpose, the White Robe Legion was indeed very dazzling. The white-robed legion not only crushed the momentum, but also brought physical damage to the defenders...

"This cavalry corps is really ostentatious. It is said that Gongsun Zan in western Liaoning is the general of the white horse, but now it seems that these fierce generals under the city are the real generals of the white horse."

Shen Pei rubbed his sore eyes, avoiding looking directly at the white-robed army.

Gao Jong and Han captured Hu and climbed the city to observe Chutian's vanguard.

In the previous battles of Chutian, the white robe army was the vanguard.

Unless there is a strong city, no one can stand guard in the visual shock brought by the mighty white ocean.

"Master Gao, the last commander is willing to lead a cavalry out of the city to destroy it!"

Seeing that the white-robed army was strong and courageous, Han Chuhu took the initiative to invite Gao Jong, who was in charge of Yecheng's defense, to fight.

"No. The enemy is menacing, obviously coming prepared."

Gao Jong stopped Han's dangerous attempt to capture the tiger.

According to his information, the White Pao Army was the main cavalry army under Chu Tian, ​​and the three generals were outstanding.

"Garrison camp and occupy nearby important places, villages and towns."

Chen Qingzhi did not lead the white-robed army to show off his might under Yecheng. He wanted to prepare for the arrival of the army in the rear, including but not limited to selecting the camp location of the 300,000-strong army, protecting food routes, occupying important places, and observing the fact that the defending army was real...

"Liu Bei's army is going south to support Yecheng non-stop. Although we can't get the exact progress of its advance, we have to prepare for the worst... According to my estimation, if it sends a light cavalry and light equipment, it will resist it soon. Yecheng, we must guard against it."

Chen Qingzhi was thoughtful, and repeatedly urged Xue Rengui and Zhao Yun to strengthen patrols and spread scouts.

As Chen Qing expected, the cavalry of Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and King Lanling crossed the Taihang Mountains, less than two hundred miles away from the White Pao Army!
