System Blessing: The Young Master of the Dong Family and Diao Chan's Fate

When Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan went to war, Dong Yu also led his army to Hanchang County after Lu Bu, Zhao Yun and others left.

Hanchang County is only over 200 miles away from Yijing, so such battle reports naturally need to be delivered urgently.

On the day Gongsun Zan won the battle, Dong Yu had already obtained all the details.

"So you lost?"

"That's really off the mark!"

"This Liu Yu is too..."

"I've never seen a battle like this."

The soldiers were all amazed and couldn't help but complain.

You said Liu Yu is incompetent?

He is actually only bad at fighting, and his other skills are almost maxed out.

In terms of domestic affairs, there are not many capable people in the entire late Han Dynasty who can govern a depressed Youzhou into its current situation.

It can be said that wherever Liu Yu went, there would be peace and order.

It’s a pity that when God gives a person his outstanding qualities, he will naturally also give him certain shortcomings.

"I've already said it, Liu Yu definitely can't win."

Although Dong Yu had expected this, he couldn't help but shake his head helplessly.

Such a large experience pack was taken away by Gongsun Zan.

But there is nothing to regret. From the moment Gongsun Zan started to plunder the loot, he has reached the end of his road.

"After Gongsun Zan defeated Liu Yu, he led 20,000 cavalry and infantry out of Yijing, pursuing the remaining Liu Yu troops."

Shi A bowed and continued to talk about the relevant battle reports.

"Have you come back yet?"

Hearing this, Dong Yu immediately asked.

"Never."

Shi A shook his head.

"My lord, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

"Gongsun Zan's forces are weak. This time he led an army of 20,000 to pursue Liu Yu. He must have been unaware of our army's movements."

"If our army travels light and quickly, abandoning all baggage, we can reach Yijing within two days."

"As long as Yijing is captured, Gongsun Zan will be forced into a desperate situation."

Guo Jia bowed and offered a suggestion.

"My lord, what Military Advisor Guo said is absolutely true."

"That's quite reasonable."

Military advisors including Xun You, Cui Yan, and Jia Xu all echoed the sentiment.

"it is good!"

"Zhang Xiu, tell the three armies to travel light and march quickly, at a rate of 120 li per day."

"Zhang He and Qiao Rui, you two will lead an army of 10,000 and follow behind."

Dong Yu acted decisively and issued the order for a forced march without hesitation.

"The last general takes command!"

Forced march is definitely an extremely harsh test for soldiers.

During this trip, Dong Yu took away 30,000 elite soldiers from Yecheng in order to solve the problem in Jizhou.

He left behind three generals, Xu Rong, Qiao Rui and Gao Lan, to guard Yecheng.

To guard against Cao Cao south of the Yellow River.

Although the other party is now slaughtering the people of Xuzhou, we still have to be on guard.

squeak-

The village gate was opened, and the soldiers were armed with weapons, carrying only three days' worth of food and water.

If they were carrying baggage, a march of forty miles a day for an army of 30,000 would be considered fast.

However, without the weight, the speed and endurance of the infantry will be improved.

However, even so, many soldiers were exhausted and fell behind along the way.

As for these soldiers, Zhang He will take them with him later.

Forced march is all about efficiency and speed.

There is no time to wait for those exhausted soldiers.

When the 20,000 elite soldiers arrived at Yijing, only more than 10,000 were left, and the rest were almost exhausted and collapsed on the road.

Most of these 10,000 people were veterans brought by Dong Yu.

"My lord, we can't go any further. Yijing is only twenty miles away. Given our army's current situation, we must rest for a night."

Zhang Xiu looked at Dong Yu and reminded him.

"Pass the order, rest where you are, and do not light any fire tonight."

"Fengxian, send someone to keep watch."

Dong Yu was not arrogant enough to think that his exhausted army could capture Yijing.

So I decided to take a night off.

Sharpening knives does not miss woodcutters.

They were already fast enough, there was no need to take any risks at this point.

"promise!"

Lu Bu bowed.

Asking him to be on duty does not mean asking him to be on duty himself.

Lu Bu had many generals under his command, the more famous ones were Wei Yue, Cao Xing and others.

These athletes are not as useless as they are portrayed in the novel.

Wei Yue and Cheng Lian are considered the two most powerful men under Lu Bu's command.
