Chapter 540

In April 197, Liu Ye led a 50000 army to the north of Bingzhou, and this task was completed by the newly established Imperial Navy.

"Boan, how's the Navy going?" Liu Ye stands on the boat and asks Gao Chong beside him.

Gao Chong replied: "today, our navy has 20 Pang warships, more than 100 boats, and the number of sailors is more than 4000. It will not be a problem to cross the Yangtze River in time."

Liu Ye nodded with satisfaction: "very good, bo'an, you should continue to work hard, and you will continue to recruit and recruit men who are good at water warfare from the army. In the future, when our army goes south to drink the Majiang River, at least your navy will have to be more than 10000 people."

Gao Chong was naturally pleased when he heard the speech. As the commander in chief of the Navy, the more the number, the better.

"Governor, our army is coming to shore."

A boat was drifting from the boat, and the soldier on the boat yelled.

Gao Chong responded: "I know, ready to dock!"

More than one hundred United fleets, which were composed of Pang and zoge, moved slowly towards the other side of the river. The carrying capacity was not enough to transport 50000 soldiers all at once. It took three times to transport all the 50000 soldiers to the other side of the river.

But as soon as he got off the bank, Liu Ye got a bad news.

Xu Huang, a pioneer, said with a gloomy face: "general, this time the Jizhou army is setting up defense at xingkou. I'm afraid it will be difficult for our army to break through for a while."

"Xingxingkou?" Guo jiaruo thought: "xingxingkou is the key to Bingzhou. Once Jizhou army blocks xingkou, our army must pay a heavy price to break through."

Xingxingkou has a complex terrain, including many corridors, but the final exit is fixed. In other words, when the Liangzhou army enters into it, it must be killed out of a certain caliber, while Jizhou army only needs to wait for work with ease.

When the Chu and Han Dynasties were fighting for hegemony, Han Xin led his troops to invade the state of Zhao. Li zuoche, king of Guangwu of Zhao, suggested that Chen Yu, commander in chief, lead the army to block xingkou and block the Han army. However, relying on the 200000 troops under his command, Chen Yu had no need to fear Han Xin, so he finally advocated a decisive battle with Han Xin.

Han Xin, on the other hand, led the Han Army to fight back and forth. As a result, 200000 Zhao troops were defeated. After hearing about Li zuoche's plot, Han Xin immediately became a guest of honor. Even Han Xin, who called himself a soldier immortal, highly praised Li zuochi's strategy. It can be seen that Li zuochi's strategy is indeed mature.

Liu Ye frowns: "who will be the enemy of blocking xingkou?"

"The chief general is a literary clown, while the vice general is a yeast."

"Wen Chou, Qu Yi?" Liu Ye pondered for a while and said, "it is said that Wen Chou and Yan Liang are the powerful generals under Yuan Shao's command. Qu Yi led the first dead man to defeat Bai Ma Yi. It seems that it is difficult to break through xingkou this time."

"Not bad." Jia Xu nodded his head and said, "xingxingkou is a strategic area. It is difficult for our army to break through by force. I'm afraid we need to find another way."

"But xingxingkou is the shortest way for our army to break through Bingzhou. If we don't take xingkou, we can only pass through Heishan." Xu Huang frowned and said, "will Zhang Yan agree?"

Liu Ye and Zhang Yan can be regarded as a pair of enemies. Their enmity started from the Yellow turban rebellion. Later, they fought fiercely for many times and asked Zhang Yan to give in to the Liangzhou army. It was really...

"no matter what, we should try." Liu Ye looks at Jia Xu and says, "Wenhe, it's up to you."

Jia Xu calmly nodded: "Nuo, the general is at ease."

...

"what? Liu Ye wants to borrow from Heishan? "

Zhang Yan sat on the throne carelessly and said with a sneer.

"Ha ha, what Zhang Pingnan said is right." The emissary sent by Jia Xu flattered and said with a smile: "the general wants to go north to rescue Bingzhou. I hope Zhang Pingnan can make it convenient. At that time, the general will be grateful."

Zhang Yan pretended to be puzzled: "but there are many ways for the general to go north to Bingzhou. Why do they have to take advantage of Heishan?"

"The general was afraid that he was not going north to rescue Bingzhou, but to exterminate Guo Zhang Yan sneered: "I'm afraid that I borrowed this way, and my black mountain will no longer exist?"

The emissary was in a cold sweat and said with a fake smile, "what is Zhang Pingnan saying? The general has promised that as long as Zhang Pingnan is willing to give up a road, the court will not be stingy to reward him. However, Zhang Pingnan does not need to mobilize the army, just give way

Zhang Yan stood up and said with a sneer, "forget it, isn't the great general always brilliant? I'm still worried that the general might have another plan. I'd like to ask the emissary to report back to the general. "

"Zhang Ping is hard! Please think about it again! "

"Seeing off the guests!" Zhang Yan said coldly.

Black Mountain Sergeant soldier stood up, went to the messenger side, stretched out his hand and said, "emissary, please."

The emissary sighed and tried to persuade Zhang Yan, but he was directly taken down by black mountain soldiers. When the emissary retreated, Zhang Yan's face was completely cold.

"Hum! Liu Ye is really deceiving people. " Zhang Yan said coldly: "before, he had a lot of battles with me in Heishan. I don't know how many soldiers were killed and injured. This time he even wanted to borrow from my Heishan?"Yang Feng cautiously said, "but commander-in-chief, if our army doesn't give Liu Ye an excuse, what if Liu Yuqing is so angry that he attacks Heishan?"

"Then fight him!"

Zhang Yan said with a smile: "Yang Feng, do you know why Liu Ye is kowtowing to me this time

Yang Feng shook his head: "I don't know. What's your opinion?"

Zhang Yan sneered: "Yuan Shao attacked Bingzhou, so Liu Ye had to lead troops to help. But now that the Jizhou army has controlled xingkou, Liu Yuqing has to borrow from our army."

"Oh, that's a good thing." Yang Feng excitedly said: "if Yuan Shao can occupy Bingzhou, then he will completely occupy Hebei. He can divide and rule with Liu Yuqing, even threaten Liu Ye, and our army will be relaxed."

Zhang Yan nodded: "yes, not only that, our army can not lend Liu Ye the road, but also send troops to block it."

Yang Fengwen was startled: "but commander-in-chief, Liangzhou army has always been invincible. If our army sends troops to blockade Heishan, what should Liu Ye do if he launches troops to attack us?"

Liu Ye came here with 50000 troops. Although the black mountain bandits have many troops, they are backward in equipment and low in morale. If they want to compete with the elite Liangzhou army, it is no doubt a dream.

After hearing this, Zhang Yan sneered: "don't worry, Yang Feng, the main purpose of Liu Ye's going north this time is to rescue Bingzhou. Time matters. He can't waste his time fighting with our army."

When Yang Feng saw Zhang Yan, who was determined to get something, she had to hold back her opinion.
