Zhang Guang thought about it for a while, and slowly said his thoughts.

"Xiaoman, Brother Xun Yu, you said that the Yellow Turban Army claims to have a million troops, let's first calculate how many troops the Yellow Turban Army has."

"Qingzhou has six counties under its jurisdiction, namely Jinan, Pingyuan, Le'an, Beihai, Donglai, and Qi, and the total population of the six places is only three million."

"Among them, Pingyuan County is garrisoned by Liu Bei, Beihai is controlled by Kong Rong, and the main forces of the Yellow Turban are concentrated in the areas of Jinan, Le'an, and Qi."

"The total population of the three counties combined is at most one million, how much appeal do they have to summon a million troops?"

"Therefore, the so-called million troops of the Yellow Turban Army are completely fooling outsiders, and I think there are more than 300,000 at most."

Xun Yu is okay, although he is not as detailed as Zhang Guang, but he must have thought of this layer in his heart.

Cao Cao is different, as soon as Zhang Guang said this, the Yellow Turban Army is a fat man with a swollen face.

"Zhang Guang, even if the Yellow Turban Army has 300,000 troops and we have 50,000, it will be difficult to win?" Xun Yu broke the casserole and asked to the end.

"Haha, Brother Xun Yu, you're wrong."

"When the Yellow Turban Army first started its rebellion, there was Zhang Jiao, the spiritual leader, who was powerful and extremely fierce in battle, and it could also be called the Yellow Turban Army."

"Today's remnants of the Yellow Turban Army are mostly homeless and bandits, but they are actually a group of rabble."

"Especially their leader, Zhang Rao, who has no way to compare with Cao Cao and Brother Xun Yu in terms of vision, pattern and military talent."

"In addition, the elite of the Cao Army now have all fought against Dong Zhuoxi's Liang Army and the Black Mountain Army, and they have rich combat experience, which can be compared to the remaining parties of the Yellow Turban Army?"

"The Battle of Baiju in which King Wu's 30,000 troops defeated the 200,000 main force of the Chu army, and the Battle of Julu in which Xiang Yu's 60,000 Chu troops defeated the 400,000 Qin army."

"If it only refers to military talent, Cao Cao's ability is not under Xiang Yu, and the ability of a single round of strategy, Brother Xun Yu's ability is not under Wu Wanglu."

"Then why is 50,000 against 300,000 uncertain?"

Zhang Guang's sycophant was just right, Cao Cao and Xun Yu had red faces on their faces, and they were busy raising their glasses and drinking, covering up their snickering.

"Yes, how could it not be, Xiaoman, let's go, go back immediately and tell the lord!"

"Okay!"

Cao Cao and Xun Yu came fast and left fast.

On the same day, people from the reconnaissance platoon came to tell Zhang Guang that Xun Yu, Xiahou Yuan and others had left Chen Liucheng with tens of thousands of soldiers.

"What about Cao Cao?"

"I don't know, I only saw Xiaoman and Xun Yu together."

Cao Cao didn't follow? Could it be that he stayed in Chen Liucheng to guard me?

Probably not, it is estimated that he left Chen Liu before our competition, and it seems that Cao Cao has been prepared for a long time.

In that case, we need to hurry.

Cao Cao's stay in Chen Liucheng this time was the previous Chen Liutai guarding Zhang Miao.

Zhang Miao was already unhappy that Cao Cao let him stay in Chen to guard against a fortune teller, and felt that Cao Cao didn't pay attention to him.

As soon as Cao Cao left, he began to drink to kill his sorrows, and the next day it was almost dawn, and he was still drunk on the bed, like a fat pig sleeping soundly, snoring.

"Lord Zhang, it's not a good thing!"

"Master Zhang!"

"What about the Tai Shouren?"

"Master Zhang is sleeping in the back room, drunk!" Zhang Miao's guards responded to the garrison generals who came in a hurry.

"Master Zhang must be woken up, Zhang Guang has run away!"

"What?"

Zhang Miao, who was woken up, heard it, and ran out with a cloak: "What did you say?" Who ran away? ”

"Zhang Guang, I just took people to patrol the defense, and found that the sentry posts on the east city wall were all stunned to the ground, I can only think that Zhang Guang did it, and I hurriedly ran to Zhang Guang's courtyard with people, and found that the courtyard door was wide open, and there was no one."

"Quick, take me to see it!"

Zhang Guang's yard was empty, and everything that should have been taken away was taken away, leaving behind wooden parts, pots and pans and other things.

"No, they have tens of thousands of gold, they want to take them all, it is impossible to go fast, chase, fast, gather all the garrisons, chase me!"

Zhang Miao chased Chen Liuli for dozens of miles, and he did not see Zhang Guang and others.

had no choice but to return to the city, and at the same time send someone to report to Cao Cao.

At the foot of the Golden Line Ridge at the junction of Dongping County and Chenliu County in Yanzhou, Cao Cao and Xun Yu were discussing how to attack the Shouzhang Yellow Turban Army.

"Lord, lord, Zhang Guang has escaped!" The messenger sent by Zhang Miao ran into the camp, fell to the ground, and struggled to pull out a piece of silk.

"Lord, Zhang Miao sent a letter, Zhang Guang has fled from Chen Liucheng, and he doesn't know where to go, Zhang Miao led the army out of the city, and chased him for dozens of miles in all directions, but he didn't see Zhang Guang's subordinates." Xun Yu finished reading the content on the silk silk and said.

"Escaped? It's impossible, he has tens of thousands of gold, just a few hundred people, and no good war horses, how can he run so fast and quietly? ”

"But Zhang Miao's letter does say so."

"Waste, Zhang Miao is a waste, he left 10,000 people, he can't even look at Zhang Guang, who is only a few hundred people, he should be killed!" Cao Cao was furious.

"Lord, in fact, it's not necessarily a bad thing, Zhang Guang escaped from Chen Liucheng, so the lord doesn't have to worry about him moving Chen Liucheng's crooked thoughts in the back, and he can concentrate on dealing with Zhang Xiao's Yellow Turban Army!"

"No, we must find out where Zhang Guang went, he has hundreds of subordinates, and he still has so many supplies, it is impossible not to leave a trace, ask Xiahoudun of Dongjun to check for me, I found it, when I solve Zhang Xiao, I will definitely cut him with a thousand knives, I can't get it, and others don't want to get it."

"Yes, my lord!"

Xun Yu was busy arranging for people to go to Dongjun and inform Dongjun Taishou Xiahoudun.

"Come, come and take a look, Zhang Xiao is now stationed in Shouzhang, obviously he wants to fight to the death with me Cao Cao, tell me, what should I do?"

"Lord, fight, Zhang Xiao is far worse than Zhang Jiao, as long as we beat him up, he will definitely surrender." Xiahou Yuan said.

Li Dian and others also seconded the proposal, feeling that since they had already come, they should fight.

"Big brother, I think we should think twice, Zhang Guangdu has fled, proving that he is not sure of his calculations, now Zhang Xiao's Yellow Turban Army is on the momentum, you can't fight hard!" Cao Ren is against hard fighting.

"That's right, lord, we have to think in the long run, we can be stationed in the area of Jinxian Ridge and fight a protracted war with Zhang Xiao, Zhang Xiao's Yellow Turban Army dragged his family and took his family, nested in such a small city as Shouzhang, it will definitely not last long, and when the time comes, we will take the opportunity to pursue again." Xun Yu also made arrangements and returned to Cao Cao's main account.

"No, isn't he Zhang Guang without confidence? I Cao Cao is confident, I will call the people of the world to see, he Zhang Guang is just a fortune teller, far worse than my Cao Cao, pass the order to go down, bury the pot to cook, rest for one night, and attack the city early tomorrow morning. ”

Xun Yu, Xiahou Yuan and others had no choice but to withdraw from the main account and began to follow Cao Cao's arrangement.

Alas, Zhang Guang's escape, the lord has completely lost his sense of proportion, I don't know what happened to Zhang Guang, a fortune teller, so that the lord attaches so much importance to it.

Xun Yu doesn't understand!

Cao Ren doesn't understand!

Li Dian and others don't understand either!
