Now that it is the end of the troubled times, Sima Yi's intention to jump out at this time is clear to everyone. If you can't jump out, you can't take advantage of this troubled era to get up, after all, promoting talents also requires merit to lay the foundation, just like Zhuge Liang, although Yuan Shu is clever, but he is still a nine-grade official. It takes two or three years to really stand up, which is still a benefit that he only has as an internal strategist.

And Sima Yi doesn't have the patience to deal with political affairs, if he wants to come out quickly, he must show his brilliant side on this stage that is about to disappear.

If Yuan Shu's target was only the region of the Thirteen Prefectures of the Great Han Dynasty, with Sima Yi's method of flattering both sides to death, Yuan Shu would definitely directly cut off his wolf-eyed eagle Gu's head. Because there are many talents under his command now, there is no need for such a changeable Tsukasa Tiger at all.

But if this stage is placed on such a large territory as the four empires, even in this star-studded era, so many heroes are a little stretched. The Han people are originally a family, even if they are ambitious, Yuan Shu can tolerate it, but it is a big deal to throw this goods to rest and Rome in the future like Cao Cao. Give you some population and strength, if you want to be called the king and the emperor, if you have the ability, you will directly annex Rome against the guest. As long as you still remember that you are a Han Chinese, do not forget your ancestors, and love what you do, anyway, Lao Tzu can't occupy such a far place.

Standing in his current position, Yuan Shu's eyes have been opened. Land, money, food, and everything are all floating clouds, and they are at your fingertips, and population and talent are the real essence of a country. Of course, strictly speaking, technology is also, but in this era of cold weapons, it is difficult to open the gap between smelting, shipbuilding and other technologies, that is, in more than ten years, it would be good for Yuan Shu to advance the level of science and technology to the level of the first industrial revolution.

A talent like Sima Yi, who can determine a country by one person, can stay or try to stay. Of course, if this guy really didn't know how to do something disgusting to Yuan Shu, it wouldn't hurt to kill him, but his current actions did not violate Yuan Shu's bottom line.

Cao Cao retreated like this, Yuan Shu naturally would not let go of Xuzhou, led the army to slowly move forward, and ordered Xu Rong, who was located in Yuzhou, to lead an army of 20,000 to garrison. As for Zhang Fei, who coerced Yuzhou, he was not looked at by Yuan Shu at all, it would be good if he didn't lead the army to attack Yanzhou, and he threatened Yuzhou with him in turn. If Zhang Fei dared to send troops, Huang Zhong's 50,000-strong army would dare to come to Yanzhou the next day.

Another 20,000 troops were placed in Yuzhou to maintain stability and just in case, and after Xu Rong initially included Xuzhou in his control, Yuan Shu continued to march in a hurry.

Yuan Shu's march has always been based on stability, but he is not in a hurry anyway, leading the army to a city today and a county tomorrow, slowly advancing towards Qingzhou. And Cao Cao also needed time at this time, because he needed to agree with the reinforcements sent by Yuan Shao and Liu Bei. Coordinated operations.

Yuan Shu's strength is too strong, if the three parties split and attack, there really is not much chance of winning. The three parties must coordinate and cooperate in order to give full play to their strength. Fortunately, Liu Bei and Yuan Shao did not come in person, and Cao Cao did not need to worry about the problem of unifying the commander-in-chief, and justifiably became the commander of this tripartite coalition army.

Although he was the commander, how could the reinforcements sent by Liu Bei and Yuan Shao be driven by him? There are a lot of grudges between the two sides. Of course, Cao Cao also expected this, he didn't think that Guan Yu, who had an arrogant personality, and Gao Ran, who was born in a famous family, could completely obey him.

If a large army cannot be in one place, it is better to fight separately. Cao Cao directly divided Yuan Liu's army on both sides as the left and right armies, and was also led by Gao Ran and Guan Yu, who only needed to obey the unified command of his own side when fighting.

Before the battle, all three parties revealed to each other their approximate strength and capabilities. When they learned about Guan Yu's legion talent, the eyes of Cao Cao, Xi Zhicai and the others instantly burst into an astonishing light, looking at Guan Yu as if they were seeing a peerless treasure.

This guy's ability is terrifying! If you use it well, you can come up with a three-plate axe and beat the other side.

In Cao Cao's eyes, there was a point of excitement, a point of pity, three points of desire, and five points of happiness.

This is a peerless talent! Not to mention anything else, relying on the talent of this legion alone, Guan Yu is enough to rank among the top generals in the world, not to mention that he is still a super-first-class general, but unfortunately he is not under his command, but Liu Bei's subordinates.

In addition, the five points of happiness are fortunate that Guan Yu is not under the command of Yuan Shu or Yuan Shao. Otherwise, with the large number of soldiers of these two brothers, 500,000 elites will be dispatched to Guan Yu, and the Army Soul Legion will still be able to slash you with one sword. Then this battle will not be able to be fought, no matter how you arrange it, the difference in strength will be more than twice as much, and in a head-to-head battle Guan Yu can directly cut off your strength by one sword.

With Guan Yu's ability, if he is placed under the command of a powerful lord, he will definitely be a god general. But in Liu Bei's hands, each time he commanded only 100,000 soldiers, he couldn't show his terrifying power at all.

Xi Zhicai listed Guan Yu as a killer weapon in his heart for the first time, breaking the balance or turning the tide when the situation between the two sides was anxious. Although Gao Ran is not as intuitively powerful as Guan Yu, his undefeated morale is definitely the most difficult legion talent in a protracted battle.

"Gong Cao, the strength of our waiting group has been informed to you. This decisive battle requires the sincere cooperation of our three parties to have a chance to win, and everything else can be postponed. At such a time of life and death, I hope that Cao Gong will also reveal your information to us. We need to be prepared in our hearts. Liu Ye looked at Cao Cao with a sincere look in his eyes.

But Gao Ran didn't say a word, and Xun Chen, who came with the army, didn't say a word. Cao Liu is now a matter of life and death, but Yuan Shao is not. However, if Cao Liu is defeated, Yuan Shao will not be happy. With the power of four states against the remaining thirteen states, it is definitely defeated.

However, for the Yuan family, and for many Hebei families, the tripartite defeat of the alliance in this battle is the most in their interests. Because once Cao Liu is destroyed, it will be a complete civil war of the Yuan family, which is an absolutely stable situation for the Yuan family, and the family is even more so.

For the former Hebei families, the longer the troubled times, the better. The longer the troubled times are, the more the population is consumed, the less land pressure will be in the future, and the more black households and land they can secretly acquire under their command, and the more power they can hold. The troubled times are a gluttonous feast for the families to divide up the country and the people.

However, as the Great Chu family went abroad, a lot of information that could not be concealed was gradually revealed. The strength of the four empires, the richness of the Silk Road, the countries of the Western Regions, and the Hundred Generations Dynasty, this is the world that the families dream of! In comparison, it is too small to live in the thirteen states of Dahan.

All the families have come up with a unified idea, and if they want to quickly end this troubled era, there is still an incomparably vast world waiting for them in the West. Especially the Hebei family, the families of Dachu have already taken the first step, but they haven't started yet, how can they bear it?

Although it is necessary to end the troubled times as soon as possible, the Hebei family is divided into two factions. One faction is still attached to Yuan Shao, but these people are only a minority, because of the current situation, as well as Yuan Shao's character and Yuan Shu's character, Yuan Shu is destined to be a better choice for them. Most people still have their hearts set on Yuan Shu, even the Yuan family. Although Yuan Shu did the thing of dividing the seal that made the Yuan family want to expel him from the house, the wood has been completed, and now that Yuan Shao has won the world, the family will also force Yuan Shao to follow Yuan Shu's path.

As long as the opening is torn open, it can't be made up, otherwise it will be a mortal enemy with the family of the whole world.

There are many people inside who hope to be defeated, and even Gao Ran and Xun Chen have secretly received a lot of hints and threats to make them not try their best. If it weren't for the two of them being loyal and upright, if they came with Guo Tu and others, it is estimated that they would have quarreled with Cao Cao a long time ago. This is also the reason why Yuan Shao sent the two of them here, and Yuan Shao is also helpless now.
