Chapter 729 Yanliang and the two armies battle Jizhou (6)
But Zhang Yan and these two types are not at the edge. To be honest, Ma Chao doesn't believe he is, and this is also the same. When the army rested in Zhending for one night, Ma Chao took the army away early the next morning. Zhao Yun and Dian Wei and others personally sent Ma Chao away. On the way to Julu, Ma Chao had already received the news that the Tao was lost and Zhang Yan led the troops to retreat. There was another news that Ma Chao paid more attention to it, that is, Cao Cao went to Jizhou again to add 50,000 troops! As soon as Ma Chao heard this news, he knew that Cao Cao was against Anping and Ju.
Lu, he was determined to get it. He could see one or two of them by looking at the actions of the man. Now they have less than 200,000 in Yanzhou. They are facing their own 150,000. It means they have the advantage, but they have no advantage, but Ma Chao did not think of adding more troops, because Sili really couldn't tune out more people, and the remaining troops were not allowed to defend the city and guard the pass. The Sili team was short of 150,000.
But there are not many people in Yuzhou in their Yanzhou army. So Ma Chao had to let go, so he could be sure that he now has enough troops on the border between Sili and Yuzhou, and can attack in front of 150,000 troops in Yuzhou. If we call for more troops and more 50,000 troops like Cao Cao, then the troops in Yuzhou might go to Sili again. I am sure of this.
Thinking that the people Cao Cao was a militant, but in Ma Chao's opinion, those who were guarding in Yuzhou were even more warlike. If they found an opportunity, the people in Yuzhou would have to join Sili. At that time, there would be no benefit in fighting on both sides of our side. If they had no choice, they could only let the people in Nanyang pass by. There was no way. But to be honest, for Ma Chao, it would be fine if the people in Sili moved, but the people in Nanyang could not be moved lightly. Look at Cao Cao, they could use Qingzhou casually.
After all, Qingzhou is not connected with any prefecture and county on its own, and is also next to the Jiangdong Army, but its own side is not. The people in Jizhou are now attacked by the other side, so they must take the initiative and passiveness to participate in the war. Needless to say, Liangzhou's people cannot move, and they must be guarded against the Qiang people. This is the top priority. When there are too many people, they can be more honest and have fewer people.
Then there will be problems. Sili's troops have used all the people who can be transferred to him. It is not possible for the time being. We can only replenish them and cannot send people. Bingzhou is not the same as that, not only threatens from the northern alien race, but also next to the Youzhou of the Liangzhou army and cannot move. Jingzhou is not the same as that. It is not only threatened by Yanzhou army and Yuzhou, but also threatened by Jiangdong army and Yangzhou and Jiaozhou. This is not the same as before.
The battle was once, but Ma Chao knew that you should not let Sun Ce seize the opportunity, otherwise you would not be able to escape from the north and go to Jingzhou. Once there is a war in that place, it is normal for Sun Ce to seize the opportunity and lose one or two counties. So it can only be used to transfer the troops from Yizhou. Now there are not many people that can be allocated in Yizhou, and more importantly, it is to supplement Chang'an and the surrounding areas, so it is impossible to come to Jizhou. Besides, it takes a lot of time to go from Yizhou to Chang'an, and then to Jizhou.
It is estimated that the war in Jizhou was over at that time, really. And Ma Chao was very clear about the situation in Yizhou. The main reason was that he had dispatched troops from Chengdu and the surrounding troops. After all, the Jiangdong army and Jiaozhou were placed in the southeast. Although Ma Chao felt that the Jiangdong army would not send troops from Jiaozhou, it was really not good for them, but what should be defended was indeed to prevent. Therefore, the people in the southeast could not move, and
The people in the south and southwest cannot move. Although Meng Huo and the South Barbarians are honest now, they have also given them a lot of benefits and brought out real money. This is real. And there are also many people on the border. Meng Huo has suffered losses, so he must not be foolish and come back easily. But if there are fewer people, Ma Chao will not be able to protect the other party. So the south and southwest are not good either. Only the people in Chengdu and Hanzhong, and the east are almost like this. But in Ma Chao's opinion, it is better.
The eastern part of the state and Hanzhong can support Nanjun. Even if it takes a little effort to walk, this is an advantage of our side. So it is easy to move, so there will be only Chengdu. If Chengdu is transferred to Chang'an, there will probably be fewer than tens of thousands of people. He knows that there can be 20,000 or 30,000, that's it. But even so, other places cannot do it, so Chengdu can be more troops, so Ma Chao is also helpless. There is no way. If there is a good choice, he won't be able to do it.
He would allocate Chengdu troops. When they arrived in Sili, they didn't know when it was. So it was really a joke that Ma Chao never expected to transfer troops from Yizhou to Jizhou. And Cao Cao, whether from Yanzhou or Qingzhou, was next to Jizhou, so his own side was no match, really. If Yizhou and Jizhou were also next to each other...
Ma Chao thought that was a dream. Really, even if it was really next to each other, if Yizhou was still next to Yanzhou or Jiangdong Army, then he could not easily move troops, right? So this is also, it is not that easy and simple, definitely yes. Ma Chao felt that his Jizhou was no longer dominant, and Cao Cao added another 50,000 troops. What does it mean, so there is no need to say more.
He also thought about it. Although the overall strength of the Yanzhou army is not as strong as that of our own, this is true, but Cao Cao/they know how to use their advantages and they have to admit it. To be honest, Ma Chao knew that his own troops would surpass the Yanzhou army, but they used their threats to their side and the Jiangdong army to make them unable to dispatch more troops. Now, 150,000 people plus the local people in Jizhou are at the forefront. But the Yanzhou army not only has nearly 200,000 people, but also more troops than their own.
So how can we have an advantage here? Before Cao Cao transferred his base camp to Yecheng, Wei County, at that time, the Liangzhou army had more troops in Jizhou than the Yanzhou army. But when Cao Cao became queen, he moved the base camp to Yecheng this year, and naturally he became Yanzhou army in Jizhou, which was more troops than Liangzhou army, which was normal.
The city has become the new base camp of the Yanzhou army. If the Jizhou troops cannot surpass the Liangzhou army here, it is unreasonable. It must be true. So Ma Chao is very clear. Now his advantage in Jizhou is the only one left on the surface to defend the city. The others are basically gone, which is really. So he knows that his side has not yet had Yanzhou.
The army battle, but our side was at a disadvantage. Indeed, Anping and Julu were not led by themselves before, but they took their main force to fight against the Yanzhou army. So Ma Chao felt that it was not a formal war. As for Cao Cao, he didn't know much about it, but now he was determined to win, and the pressure was too great on his side. Really. In comparison, they should be said to be a little less, that's the case. After all, they have a big advantage now. In Ma Chao's opinion, who has a big advantage?
It should be the one with the least pressure, the other party is the one with the most pressure. For Zhang Yan, he had already thought of the loss of the Yintao, and he had to accept it no matter how much he had to accept it. This must be. And he was still rushing around the mountain at this time, and he didn't know that Ma Chao was coming with the army, otherwise his speed would be faster. Unlike now, in order to take care of the injured soldiers, he could only slow down. There was no way.
Before the battle with the Yanzhou army, there are still many injured people who are following him. Zhang Yan can't let them go and let them follow themselves. Zhang Yan felt that he didn't have to be so anxious to go to Changshan. After all, he was not a meritorious person. On the contrary, he was actually wrong. So this... Zhang Yan was not so anxious. He didn't see Ma Chao at the earliest, but Ma Chao was marching and came to report: "There are the remnants of our soldiers and horses ahead, please take the initiative to seize it!" Ma Chao knew as soon as he heard it, it was
Zhang Yan's troops arrived, this is not wrong. Cao Cao wouldn't have said that there was something else coming in front of him that pretended to be his remnants, that would be really stupid. And I have to say that even though the Yanzhou army's provocation now knew that he had led the army to Jizhou, they had not yet arrived at Cao Cao. That's it. He still believed that they were not that fast, and Zhang Yan had just met him. Zhang Yan also knew that he had met his lord's army, and he must have been here.
He had to go over to see the courtesy first and then apologize. Although this was not a big mistake, he really lost a major town in Jizhou. This must be, and Zhang Yan didn't know how his lord valued Julu, so he felt that it was necessary to apologize. After all, although he was not a big mistake, he really lost the city. This was right, and he even dragged the other party down.
Even the lower-level master did not do it. If his lord really wanted to punish him, he would admit it. This is indeed. Zhang Yan quickly went to see Ma Chao. No matter what he admits his mistake, your lord is in front of him. Because you stopped, he would have to see Ma Chao as soon as possible and say hello. This is the most basic thing that his subordinates have to do, and it must be like this, Zhang Yan is so
How could you not know about this when you are old? Not long after, Zhang Yan met his lord, or Ma Chao, who saw him. After seeing Ma Chao, Zhang Yan quickly bowed: "I have met my lord!" Ma Chao nodded when he heard this. Although he knew that Zhang Yan was defeated and had lost all the pottery, he didn't have much to say, even if he was the lord and the boss, he had nothing wrong with him. As for the city that was lost, Ma Chao thought it was too normal. Really, if you say that you didn't lose it, there would be a problem.
However, although Ma Chao knew that the city was lost, he had to say what he should say, and he had to ask, so he said at this time: "This General Zhang, Julu doesn't know..." Although Ma Chao asked this knowingly, Zhang Yan still had to say honestly, "Report to the lord, my subordinates are incompetent, let the lord lose! The last general defended the city is not good, so please punish him." After all, his feelings for Julu are still still
It is quite unique, so Zhang Yan was really unhappy, helpless, regretful, and heartache when he lost the eel pot in his hand. This is a bit unhappy. After hearing his words, Ma Chao waved his hand and said directly: "The city is lost, we can't blame General Zhang. After all, there are 150,000 troops from the Yanzhou army. Even if I come in person, I may not be able to stop Cao Mengde."
Zhang Yan said nothing wrong. This is true. Not to mention him. Even if it is replaced by a general, even if it is replaced by a general to defend the city, Ma Chao felt that unless it is like Hao Zhao, it would not work. It is just a matter of how long it will last, and how long it will take. Like Zhang Yan, a second-rate general, he can hold on for six days, so if it is replaced by a first-class general, a general, that is, it will be like that of a general. After all, the gap between the two sides is really not small, that is, it is like Hao Zhao.
Ma Chao dared not say that he would definitely keep the city, but he persisted for more than half a month, and he thought that it was OK. He couldn't underestimate the past half month. You should know that if you have just one day, there would be too many variables. And as long as you defend the city, the Yanzhou army would completely lose the capital once its army arrived, and that's it. So both sides had such a concept of time.
The Liangzhou Army side naturally hopes that their side will defend the city for more time, which is good. The Yanzhou Army side naturally has the opposite idea. The sooner they break the city, the more benefits they will be. That's better. This must be very different from the Liangzhou Army. The two sides have the opposite ideas. Now, it's in line with the Yanzhou Army.
Their thoughts are different from what the Liangzhou army thinks. There is no way, but Zhang Yan can't do it. He is a little worse than Lejin. There are not as many soldiers in Liangzhou as there are not many soldiers in Liangzhou, so it is impossible to say that this city is not lost. As for the loss of the pottery, then the other counties in Julu are probably unable to save them. Even if Ma Chao brings the army now, he can't save several county towns. This is definitely true, but he still has to advance to Julu without retreating. That is not in line with his personality. How can he retreat back?
The soldiers are really. Even if they have no advantage, they still have to advance to Julu. They will not compete with Cao Cao's Yanzhou Army in other places. Except for Julu, there will be no benefit to them. What Ma Chao thought is actually simple. If he wants to win in the end, he might be able to recover Julu and force the Yanzhou Army to retreat. And if his side is defeated in the end,
