Liu Lan is now short of food, if this person Hutian can really come true, then he can be guaranteed to occupy the southern grain, as for the source of soldiers with money and food, there is naturally no need to worry, just like Yuan Shao controlled Jizhou, even if the battle of Jizhou was taken advantage of by Gongsun Zhan, but for a hundred years, Jizhou has been needed to transport grain and materials to Youzhou, how can it be compared with Jizhou, the gap between the two sides has been gradually widened in a few years, and finally Gongsun Chan was defeated and self-immolated.

It can be said that this is the most typical example of war, Gongsun Chan should not fight with Yuan Shao at all, the barren Youzhou will be dragged down by Jizhou sooner or later, and in this era, it seems that Guangwu is based on Hanoi to control the world, but this situation of occupying Hanoi is not to occupy a county in Hanoi, but the entire north of the Yellow River, to put it bluntly, Yuan Shao is replicating the successful precedent of Emperor Guangwu, completely emulating him.

For example, Emperor Guangwu enabled the Sanhe scholars, using Jizhou as a granary, and Youzhou as a sharp blade, which is exactly the same, so when you Yuan Shao told Cao Cao his thoughts, although Cao Cao only got a sword from him, he knew in his heart that time has changed, and it is not so easy for Yuan Shao to copy the success of Emperor Guangwu.

After all, the Han Dynasty as a whole has gone through two hundred years of development, how can the situation be compared with hundreds of years ago? But there is one thing that Cao Cao is worried about, that is, Jizhou, if the soldiers of the Han Dynasty change from Youzhou to Liangzhou, the granary will undoubtedly remain unchanged.

When Emperor Guangwu was called the emperor in Luoyang, he still needed to transport a large amount of grain from Jizhou to ensure the food supply of the imperial capital, it can be said that a Jizhou fed the people of the three states of the Han Dynasty, looking at the world, even if the Central Plains Yan and Henan two states were brought out alone, it was difficult to compare, even if it was two states and Jizhou soldiers, it was still slightly inferior.

It can be seen that no matter how many hundred years or thousands of years later, Jizhou no longer has the style of the Han Dynasty, but in this era, Jizhou is the granary in everyone's hearts, even in the period of seeking Dong, this is still the case, the princes from all walks of life led troops to fight for Dong on the front line, and it was Jizhou Mu Hanfu who ensured the weight of grain and grass in the rear.

It can be said that the reason why Dong Zhuo was able to win was that Dong Zhuo's retreat to Tongguan was one thing, and the life and death of the front-line soldiers was one thing, but logistics support was not the top priority?

And today's Liu Lan, although there is Xuzhou, but compared with Xuzhou and Jizhou, the gap is still quite large, the reason why Liu Lan can develop so rapidly in recent years, in fact, is the world chaos, the advantage of a sharp decline in population, in this case, Xuzhou, which has not experienced the Yellow Turban Rebellion, has naturally become the richest county in the world under the governance of Tao Qian.

Although he experienced Cao Cao's slaughter later, from the Yellow Turban to Liu Lan's entry into Xuzhou, in the past ten years, Tao Qian's family wealth was enough to ensure Liu Lan's rapid development in a short period of time, but Xuzhou after Liu Lan accepted it, after Cao Cao's killing, was far from being comparable to the previous Xuzhou, so when the treasury gradually emptied, Liu Lan also had a helplessness similar to Cao Cao.

Juntun, Mintun, and even the relocation of people from Guangling, these measures only allowed Liu Lan to ensure that the balance of payments was made, which is why Liu Lan dared to implement the new policy in Pei County, but only in Xuzhou.

How many men and horses does Cao Cao have, counting the troops of Juntun, at least more than 100,000 people, but the troops he can really use are only more than 60,000 people, which is Cao Cao who controls the Central Plains, and Liu Lan, who only controls Xuzhou, has at least 100,000 troops in his hands, and his expenses are far more than Cao Cao's several times.

Therefore, when Liu Lan was developing Liaodong and Jiangnan, he naturally chose to go south, and now he has a new hope, that is, Hutian, but this great talent in Yikou's mouth, too mysterious, what is going on is not clear, so Liu Lan will not put all his hopes on him, but Hutian's idea has made Liu Lan have his own ideas, since his confidant can study, why can't he also study?

Liu Lan personally wrote a handwritten letter to Zhang Zhao and handed it to Xu Shu, asking him to send it back to Moling as soon as possible, and after Xuzhou went and returned, Liu Lan picked up the teacup, slowly took a sip of tea, and suddenly thought of a person, and asked: "By the way, how is Gao Shun's situation in Moling, and there is no loosening yet?" ”

Xu Shu shook his head, Gao Shun had a good time in Moling, every day the door did not go out of the door, except for eating and sleeping, not mentioning the effect, and no longer shouting to leave, such a situation in fact, even Xu Shu himself did not know how to start, but because of the lord, he could only stay.

But this situation is much better than a few months ago, when Gao Shun was first captured, he swore not to surrender, and finally went on a hunger strike directly, if it wasn't for Zhang Liao, Gao Shun would have died long ago, and he became like this, and it was all thanks to Chen Gong, although it is not clear what means Chen Gong used, but after these two enemies met, maybe it really stimulated him, and his attitude really changed, but it was enough to give people a headache if he didn't mention the matter of recognizing the Lord's effectiveness.

If there is Gao Shun and the trapped camp in hand, the current Peixian County may not really have any crisis, of course, this is just Liu Lan's thoughts, after all, didn't the trapped camp save Lu Bu in the end?

Then Liu Lan asked about some of the things he was most concerned about, and then waved Xu Shu away.

At this time, since the surprise attack on Wenchou since the victory, Zhang Fei took a boat north to Liaodong, and the repulsed Wenchou, after converging with the main force, only to rush to Huangxian again, although he also knows that Zhang Fei must have run early after these few days, but sometimes, the appearance must be made, before in order to march quickly, even the flag did not let the troops fight, blindly pursuing the speed of the march, but now he is not in a hurry, all the way into Huangxian.

Huang County did not resist, or the county guard of Huang County had long been accustomed to the change of flags at the head of the city in the past few months, and also understood the way to preserve, so he directly opened the door and surrendered, while Wen Chou appeased him and let the county officials continue to perform their duties. I have to say that the county guards and county commanders have long been accustomed to it, and resistance is inevitable to die, but whether it is surrendering to the management or surrendering Zhang Fei, or surrendering Wen Chou at this moment, not only his life is preserved, but even his position is unchanged.

Arrived in Huang County, after appeasing the county guards, he naturally carried out a purge of the troops, especially the military discipline, and then issued an order to calm the people, this order was posted three times in the government office, each time it was yellow soup without changing the medicine, at most it was to change the name on it, and the people had no one to watch, and they were about to memorize it.

After everything came down, Wen Chou began to rest after reporting to Jizhou, but even he didn't expect that when he woke up, he only felt a sore throat and a hot head, and he actually fell ill.

This illness came too suddenly, even Wen Chou himself didn't expect that a martial artist like him rarely gets sick all year round, let alone typhoid fever, and it's okay to practice martial arts shirtless in winter, but he woke up uncomfortable, originally he wanted to discuss with his subordinates today whether to continue to stay in Huangxian or go to Chengyang to meet Gao Lan, but now it seems that God left him.

Wen Chou felt sick and found Dr. Lang Zhong to recuperate, but he didn't dare to slack off on the issue of discussing going to stay, he just wanted to convene the tent, but he didn't expect the generals to come to visit his condition, although Lang Zhong said that he would rest more after drinking medicine, but Wen Chou still wore a quilt in the bedroom and conducted a study with the generals.

But in the end, they failed to negotiate a result, first of all, Zhang Fei retreated to Liaodong, and they had a ferry, this is a trouble, if you evacuate, leave no troops, stay more, people don't come, stay less, become people's mouths, and if you stay, it means that the battle of Xuzhou will be delayed indefinitely, but the key is that they were dragged in Huang County by Zhang Fei's tens of thousands of troops, if Liu Lan on the Chengyang side wants to make a move, Gao Ran's current soldiers and horses really can't deal with it.

After discussing this matter with his subordinates, Wen Chou finally had to report it to the general Yuan Shao and let him make up his mind, he had nothing to do.

The generals did not say goodbye to him until this moment, and the room instantly became quiet, he was the only one, of course, there were many figures outside the room outside the window, and there were always maids ready to serve in the middle hall.

~~~~~~~~

The good news was transmitted back to Jizhou, Yuan Shao naturally had his own judgment on the current situation, Youzhou has nothing to worry about, although Tian Yu is in Lu County, but there is no way to take Ji County, you can rest assured, and in Pei County, Cao Cao and Yuan Shu's coalition army has occupied an absolute advantage, and the city will be broken in a few days, Liu Lan at this moment is completely a trapped beast, in the wind and rain.

In such a situation, Yuan Shao's eyes were naturally focused on the battle of Donglai, for which he specially drew a circle of Huangxian on the map with a red pen, as long as Huangxian was successfully won, then he could rest assured that he could boldly attack Xuzhou, which was something he had been dreaming of in the past few months, and there was no one.

"Lord, General Wen Chou urgently report!"

Yuan Shao, who was staring at the map in the middle hall, took the document from the guard's hand, and when he saw the content of the good news from Wen Chou, a smile appeared on his face, but his smile had not disappeared, Wen Chou came another document, and this time, when he saw the content of the letter, the smile on his face disappeared.

"Didn't Huang County win a big victory, how did Zhang Fei run away!" He slapped his palm on the desk, but then he couldn't help but let out a long sigh and said to the guard, "Go and ask Mr. Ciadra." ”

Now the situation in Pei County has become a little complicated, although Huang County has been taken, but Zhang Fei has been allowed to run away, which has made him a little helpless, should he withdraw or defend, if he wants to defend, how many soldiers and horses are appropriate?

When he was thinking about this matter in his heart, he was frustrated, and after showing him the paperwork, the frustrated professor on the side said softly: "I don't know if the lord has a decision in his heart?" ”

Yuan Shao shook his head, this matter is really annoying, if you don't care about Zhang Fei, I am afraid that he will return to Donglai again, if he defends Huangxian with heavy troops, then Zhang Fei will not dare to come south, but Wen Chou was also dragged by Zhang Fei in Huangxian County and could not move a bit, so I don't want to defend, but I am afraid that as soon as Zhang Fei comes, Donglai and Qingzhou will fall into turmoil again, and they will not be able to clean it up. ”

But in the end, they failed to negotiate a result, first of all, Zhang Fei retreated to Liaodong, and they had a ferry, this is a trouble, if you evacuate, leave no troops, stay more, people don't come, stay less, become people's mouths, and if you stay, it means that the battle of Xuzhou will be delayed indefinitely, but the key is that they were dragged in Huang County by Zhang Fei's tens of thousands of troops, if Liu Lan on the Chengyang side wants to make a move, Gao Ran's current soldiers and horses really can't deal with it.
