Chapter 817 Chasing and Chasing
Cao Ang pursued persistently, and continued to pursue after finishing the [-] troops left behind by Yuan Shu.
Although Yuan Shu bought himself a few hours, he didn't know how to cherish it.
Why do you say so?
He also wants to have his own airs of the emperor, driving in a luxurious car, with many court ladies and eunuchs behind him.
Needless to say, the hundreds of officials behind them, how could they march so fast?
Yuan Shu had to put on airs on the way to escape, which caused a lot of trouble for the army guarding him, and the most important thing was that the speed was very slow.
A day later, Cao Ang caught up. Cao Ang and the others completely abandoned their luggage and only brought five days of dry food.
Five days of dry food, if you chase hard, the speed will be very fast.
In one day, the lost hours were recovered.
Cao Ang approached Yuan Shu again, Yuan Shu was shocked.
"Yang Hong, quickly organize people to block it, this time we can't let them charge up again." Yuan Shu said.
Yang Hong looked distressed, it's okay to block them, but you have to run fast, take Yuan Shu with a large cart and walk slowly, you will be overtaken again soon.
"Your Majesty, I can arrange for people to stop the pursuers, but there is one thing, please think twice." Yang Hong said.
"Say."
"Throw away the chariot, give up those court ladies and eunuchs, and let all the officials get on their horses," Yang Hong said.
"Impossible, I can't lose my dignity." Yuan Shu flatly refused.
"Your Majesty, that's not the case. We put down [-] soldiers and were caught up again within two days. It's a long way to go to Xiapi City." Yang Hong persuaded.
Yuan Shu was very unwilling in his heart, he was the emperor, how could he be too embarrassed.
"Your Majesty, not only are there chasing troops, but Zhang Yu may also make a move. We are going to Xiapi City, but we have to pass through his territory."
Yes, Yuan Shao planned to meet Yuan Shu at Xiapi City in Xuzhou, because it was relatively close and there was Yuan Shao's army there, so it was more convenient.
"Okay, then you can make arrangements, but this time you must stop Cao Jun." Yuan Shu said.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Yang Hong quickly began to arrange.
The court ladies and eunuchs were driven to the side of the road and left to fend for themselves, but Cao Jun should not have killed them.
Meanwhile, Yuan Shu's cart was pushed to the side of the road and burned.
Hundreds of officials were forcibly mounted on horses, and those who could not ride a horse were arranged to be accompanied by a soldier.
In this way, the marching speed is naturally much faster.
As for the luggage, they didn't bring much. The soldiers brought dry food for several days, and some soldiers brought some food.
According to estimates, it will not take a few days to reach Xuzhou, not to mention that we can find ways to supplement along the way.
After that, Yang Hong arranged [-] troops to intercept Cao Ang.
The one hundred thousand soldiers and horses this time must not all be elite soldiers, and he doesn't have that many people.
Arranged [-] elite soldiers, and the other [-] ordinary soldiers.
They set it up on the road.
There are more than three hours for them to arrange, at least they can make a simple fortification, which can play a big role.
One hundred thousand troops are piled on the road, and it is not easy to pass in terms of numbers.
Yang Hong personally found a relatively narrow place with a support next to it.
According to Yang Hong's estimation, he could block Cao Ang for two days no matter what.
This time it was the generals of Yuan Shu's direct line who played the battle.
Yang Hong asked him to block the enemy for two days before he could retreat.
This time Yuan Shu advanced much faster. They all rode on horses and advanced quickly under the guard of soldiers.
Dian Wei and Ling Cao scolded Yuan Shu in the forest.
"Grandma Xiong, this Yuan Shu is babbling, how could his speed be so slow?" Dian Wei scolded.
Ling Cao was also very helpless. According to their estimates, Yuan Shu should arrive in a day, but according to the scouts, he might not arrive in two days.
How is this an escape? Is there any escape that doesn't care?
This time Zhang Yu didn't attack in person because his strategy had already been achieved, and if his subordinates went to fight for credit, it counted as much credit as they could get.
Zhang Yu has occupied Hefei City, controlled a large area, and expanded his territory again.
This time the expansion is different, he has slowly approached the rich land.
Zhang Yu sits firmly in Hefei City, the most difficult time has passed, because Jiangdong has sent another batch of support, not only materials, but also personnel.
The surrounding cities have largely been brought under control.
It's just that it was too miserable to be harmed by Yuan Shu here.
Zhang Yu began to plan for the post-war affairs.
Zhang Yu didn't want to take care of Yuan Shu's affairs, as long as Cao Cao didn't get the jade seal, the rest didn't matter.
"The trend of the triangle, this situation, I'm afraid there will be too many variables in the future. Sun Ce is not dead, and Cao Ang is still alive. There are enough variables in the first place." Zhang Yu said.
Yes, right now is the trend of the triangle, and there may be constant troubles in the future.
"This Hefei city may be my bridgehead for attacking other places. It must be redesigned." Zhang Yu said after studying.
"Imperial examination. After Kyushu, we will speed up the overseas pace." Zhang Yu sorted out the current affairs.
What Zhang Yu cares about is not just the current war.
There is no suspense in this battle, Zhang Yu is more concerned about the construction of the base.
Back on the battlefield, Cao Ang encountered a big problem. One hundred thousand enemy troops were lying on the road, and they could not pursue them.
One hundred thousand soldiers and horses, even if they are not elite soldiers, cannot easily pass through.
Cao Ang commanded the army to attack three times, killed a lot of enemies three times, and suffered a lot of losses. The most important thing is that they did not find a breakthrough.
If you clean up slowly, the [-] soldiers and horses will not be enough for Cao Ang and the others to eat.
But the problem also appeared, Cao Ang and the others didn't have much time.
"My lord, if we take a detour, it will take two to four more days, and I'm afraid we still won't be able to catch up," Cao Ren said.
"Then attack by force. Even if we can't catch up with Yuan Shu, we can't let go of the [-] soldiers. Moreover, Zhang Yu will buy us time. He won't just let Yuan Shu go." After thinking about it, Cao Ang decided.
Cao Ang doesn't have much time to spend, that's all he can do.
Once determined, they began to attack.
Without much skill, Cao Ren and the Xiahou brothers took turns attacking.
The attack was not very smooth. Yuan Shu's army occupied the terrain. Although the advantage was not great, the terrain was too narrow and there was no breakthrough in a short period of time.
Cao Ang and the others were stopped, and Yuan Shu and the others sped up their actions.
Finally able to speed up, Yang Hong was afraid of long nights and endless dreams, so he kept urging the army to move.
Two days later, they approached Ling Cao's ambush.
"General Dian, the matter is a bit tricky. I'm afraid we will attack and snatch it by force this time." Ling Cao said after receiving the message.
"what happened?"
"Yuan Shu still has more than 30 troops in his hands. If we want to stop them, the price we pay is too high." Ling Cao said.
"We must help the lord to get back the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom, the lord is the one who is most qualified to own the Jade Seal of the Kingdom of Chuan." Dian Wei said.
The task Zhang Yu gave them was not to let Cao Cao get the Jade Seal of Chuanguo, but it didn't matter whether he could get it himself.
But in Dian Wei Lingcao's view, this Chuan Guo Yuxi should belong to Zhang Yu.
