It can be said that even though there were many soldiers in Yanzhou until they died, they probably didn't know that Liangzhou's army was not only more than 5,000 in Xiyang City, but more than 10,000 people. This is the specific number! But Guo Huai, the chief general, never said that, and they thought that the other party was not as many as their own. This is really Guo Huai's experience. He didn't care so much about the casualties of his soldiers, but if you ask him to tell the truth to the soldiers, then it's really impossible to tell the truth. If you tell the truth in such a thing,

That is not his style. Why does Cao Cao value him? Not only is Guo Huai good at being a good person, but he is also loyal. He also knows how to judge the situation and knows when to say what to say, and does not say what to not do. That is it, so Cao Cao values ​​him. Otherwise, there will be a lot of military talents in Yanzhou, even if he is better than Guo Huai.

It's not gone, but why did Cao Cao ask him to bring his troops? Indeed, it's all a problem when he sees it. Cao Cao knew that Guo Huai was not the one who can still lead the strongest troops now, but he was indeed a very suitable one, and he was his rising star. He could train him, which was better than anything else. It's true that Cao Cao had ideas about Jiangxia.

But if you really can't do it, he won't force it too much. After all, Cao Cao had his own ideas about Jiangxia, but he was different from Sun Ce. The latter had great desire for Jiangxia and even the entire Jingzhou, which was true. After all, the Yanzhou army is still an ally. In the alliance, if the Jiangdong army wants to develop, it can only attack westward and attack the territory of the Liangzhou army, so this is not said. But Cao Cao is different. He has many choices besides Jiangxia, and you say Sun Ce has apart from

Jingzhou really has no choice. In Yizhou, it can be said that basically depends on the current situation. Unless the Jiangdong army is 100% sure, it will be as much as it goes, or Sun Ce and the others will have sent troops long ago, but that is not that simple? It is not so easy to take down just a siege, just relying on the little troops in Jiaozhou? You think Yizhou is Jing.

What about the state, really, there is no state. If Yizhou is like Jingzhou, maybe the Jiangdong army has passed away early, but it’s a pity that it is not. How many people are there in Yizhou? At least two Jingzhous, and the key is that the Yizhou Ma Chao and Liangzhou army have been in operation for many years, which is indeed not comparable to Jingzhou. Moreover, in terms of the general trend of the world, Jingzhou has always been a place of four battles, but Yizhou is not, even if you are sent to that place

The soldiers left and wanted to occupy it earlier, that was impossible. So the Jiangdong army did not dare to go there. Jingzhou had not been solved, so how could we talk about Yizhou? It's true. This is right, step by step. And if Sun Ce still has ideas and thinks that he can take Jingzhou, he really doesn't think that Jiangdong army can take it down. So this Jingzhou is what Sun Ce and the others care about now. For them, Yizhou is now a luxury, and now it's like a mirror, not so real, and

Jingzhou is incomparable. When Yizhou and Jingzhou are compared, it is visible but intangible. At least for the Jiangdong Army at this moment, this is the case. If 150,000 troops can still take down a county after entering Jingzhou, then if you enter Yizhou, you will probably not be able to leave any remaining one in the end, and you will retreat in shame. Really, so that you can't go to that place easily.

This is true. And they couldn't take Jingzhou, let alone Yizhou. They wouldn't say they were greedy for Shu, and now they didn't have it yet. And even if they really got it, it was not Long. Long probably couldn't really get it. It would be hard for Jingzhou, let alone Long. Not to mention Shu, now seeing the Jiangdong army fighting Jingzhou here, to be honest, even if they were 150,000 troops, they were not seen by Liangzhou army. Of course, they still have more troops now, and Liang

The state army is less than them... But in fact, the Jiangdong army still does not have an absolute advantage. This is naturally not good for Sun Ce and the others who are on the battlefield. After all, there are still many people on their own. When is there less, then it will take the other party to gain the advantage? So the Jiangdong army naturally has their own concerns, which is certain. After all, even if they don't say it, no matter how hard they admit it, the fact is that the Liangzhou army's individual combat power is indeed greater than that of our own, so we will say that at the beginning

Even if there are more than 10,000 people, they still don’t have a big advantage. Isn’t that the case? If the Liangzhou Army is not stronger than its own, even if it is the same as its own, then it will not be like this. Now the gap between the number of people and theirs is no longer obvious, even if it is still a little more people than them... This is not what the Jiangdong Army wants to see, for them,

Now there are fewer people and the gap between them and the other party is not obvious. So for a few more days to fight, it is estimated that they are more than their own side, which is not impossible. But they have no choice. After all, this is the combat power of this person is there, and Sun Ce and the others have no choice. It is true that Pang Tong is a top strategist, but these two armies are fighting outside the city as if they are siegeing the city, and they have no good plans.

Otherwise, it would be solved. But you have top strategists here, and they also have them there. Even if you really have a plan, it may not be good in the end. The same is true for the Liangzhou Army. Even if it really has a plan, they may not be able to fall into the trap. After all, this is not a phantom of the top strategists in Pang Tong's world. So it would be useless if both sides had it, unless they were trapped, otherwise they would be useless. If you have Zhang Liang's plan, you have a plan and you don't know how to use it. Then you can use a plan.

If you don’t fall into the trap, then it will be useless in the end. If you fall into the trap, it will be interesting, but the chance is too small. Indeed, after all, Guo Jia and Pang Tong are at the same level, and this is real. It’s really not that simple to make the opponent fall into the trap. Under Xiyang City, a day passed, and the first day that Guo Huai was preparing to attack was welcomed, of course, it was also a test attack.

There was no one else except him. Guo Huai had no big objection to this. After all, it didn't matter to him, defending the city and siege the city, and he was not good at it at all. Since his lord made such arrangements, he only asked him to bring his troops. Then he naturally had to bear all this, not only attacking the city and defending the city, but also.

Xiyang City ushered in the first tentative attack of the Yanzhou Army on the first day, and Lu Chang and his son were already ready, but they were waiting for Guo Huai to come. They knew that the person had good skills, but in Xiyang, they were also father and son, so they were not afraid of each other. This really corresponds to that. The so-called "brothers fighting tigers, father and son soldiers in battle" is correct. Although the relationship between Lu Chang and his son was not very good, they had never defended the city together, but the enemy was in front of him, and the father and son were also

Really, this must be to do its best to defend the city. And the rest are actually less important than this defending the city, right? At least whether it is Lu Chang or Lu Yi, the father and son are thinking about defending the city and giving the Yanzhou army a blow, which is enough. However, their pressure is indeed not great. After all, there are only a few thousand people from the Yanzhou army, so it seems that way.

There are only more than 3,000 people, so they don’t have much pressure. It can only be said that Guo Huai, the general, put them under pressure, not the Yanzhou army. After all, Guo Huai is not an unknown person. He is not an old man, but he became famous a few years ago. The key is that Lu Chang and his son have heard of it, and they heard his lord say that Guo Huai is a talent. Of course, they did not listen to Ma Chao’s words with their own ears, but listened to others’ reposts about how their lord described Guo Huai and Guo Boji. Therefore, the father and son can remember it.

So they had long been impressed by Guo Huai. Unlike the other party, when they arrived in Jiangxia, they only understood the Lu Chang and his son who guarded the city of Xiyang. Therefore, this was considered to be a mismatch of information. At least Lu Chang and his son first understood Guo Huai, and the latter only then realized that Lu Chang and his son had not taken much attention. This has to be said to suffer some losses. It is normal. After all, they have a scheming and unintentional idea. It can be said that they are like this. Lu Chang and his son are intentional, while Guo Huai is unintentional. But Lu Chang and his son understand him.

Younger, but Guo Huai really didn't know much about Lu Chang and his son. At least he underestimated each other, so how could he not suffer any losses? At this time, Guo Huai had already attacked Xiyang with three thousand troops. These three thousand troops were just a slight meaning to Lu Chang and his son. Even if they knew that the ten thousand people from the Yanzhou army came to Jiangxia were definitely veterans, not new recruits, this must be.

At least one fifth of them are elite troops, that is, at least two thousand are elite troops. However, they don’t know much about how many people Guo Huai brought now. After all, Guo Huai had fought with his own side before, but it was not just Xiyang. Their Yanzhou army had elite troops, but they were not vegetarians. Although there were no elite troops in these counties, how could they say

Although it is true that our side did not take advantage, it was not a big loss. Otherwise, Xiyang would not have more than 10,000 people. In addition to the already-owned people in Xiyang City, we have to add the remaining soldiers from the Kingdom of Zhi and Jinxian County, especially the former, which almost all came. That's it. So it is true that our side lost two counties by the attack of 10,000 people in Yanzhou, but most of the people fled to Xiyang. That's it, this is real.

Logically speaking, the soldiers of Yanzhou should know about this, but the Liangzhou army ran very quickly and the Yanzhou army did not pay attention to it, so almost no one of them knew about it. But Guo Huai was clear and also knew about it. The others were really not so clear. Maybe the deputy general knew it, but even if he knew it, he didn't dare to say much, so... the soldiers were

There are not many people who know it. And these days, there are only a few smart people after all, and there are not many strokes. This is certain. Smart soldiers are no longer the soldiers, but they are also officials. This is true. Of course, it is indeed not absolute. Anyway, smart people can basically live longer, and this is almost the same. It is true that they think about it, right?

In the first tentative attack, Lu Chang and his son naturally blocked Guo Huai under the city, so that the person could not reach the top of the city. Guo Huai was good at martial arts and his level of leading troops was good, but this man was only 3,000, even if there were elite troops, it would not work. It would still be bad in front of more than 10,000 regular troops. Of course, this was inseparable from the actions of Lu Chang and his son. After all, Lu Chang was not very good at his ability, so it was still possible to defend the city, let alone his son Lu Yi. To talk about Lu Yi, he was not as good as Guo Huai.

Otherwise, in the Three Kingdoms era, Guo Huai was a celebrity. Although Lu Yi had a reputation, he was still inferior to Guo Huai, which was also true. So it was true that Lu Yi was not as capable as Guo Huai. However, when his father and son joined together, they would not be much behind Guo Huai. This is certain. Guo Huai didn't go up three times, and the soldiers behind him would directly call out gold.

This was also what he had agreed before. He was forced back by the enemy generals on the city wall three times, so he would call out gold directly. This was just the first tentative attack, and he really didn't take it too seriously. For Guo Huai, there were indeed several days left after that. Even if his side was not as many troops as the Liangzhou Army, he would still be fine if he consumed their troops, so he was...

Guo Huai didn't think he could take down a city with three thousand men. To be honest, even though he didn't value Lu Chang and his son, Guo Huai didn't say he was arrogant. He said that he could take down a city with more than 10,000 men in his side, even if the general was not valued by him. To be honest, there was no. Guo Huai was not that kind of person. If he had such an idea, then Cao Cao wouldn't let him bring troops to Jiangxia alone. Isn't that right? Just say that the Yanzhou Army is more capable than him.

There can be said that there are still many, that's right. Guo Huai is not the kind of arrogant person. He can say that he doesn't value Lu Chang and his son. This has a preconceived concept. After all, Lu Chang and his son had never heard of him before he came to Jiangxia, so it is normal for Guo Huai to have no more ideas. After all, he is famous when he is young, even if he doesn't have a particularly famous reputation.

But that is not comparable to that of Lu Chang and his son. Both of them are not well-known in the Liangzhou Army. Even if they know them, there are not many, just a dozen people.
