Chapter 487: Cao Cao's plan

For Zhao Feng, this year's winter is good, but for Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, it is not so ordinary!

Within two months of the expedition, Xiahou Xuan, Xiahou Yuan, Yan Liang, and Wen Chou led their troops to turn around and return to their lives, saying that Si Li had been captured.

This made Cao Cao and Yuan Shao very surprised, I thought it would take a long time to capture Si Li, even if the time was short, I would have to fight two battles, right? But according to the report, when these four generals arrived at Si Li, Si Li was not guarded by anyone, and he was completely abandoned by Dong Wen!

Dong Zhuo is dead, and all the princes know about this matter, but Zhao Feng did not announce the news that Dong Wen and Li Ru are dead, and fortunately, Kong Rong didn't know any details, just ambiguous, and didn't leak anything more when he was in Yanzhou and Jizhou! So in the eyes of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, the current lord of Yong, Liang, and Si is still Dong Wen!

As everyone knows, it is Jia Xu who is in charge of these three states now, and as for Dong Wen, the bones are still buried in the backyard of the queen's bedroom!

"This Dong Wen, I didn't expect to have such courage!" After reading the battle report, Cao Cao couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"I'm afraid it wasn't Dong Wen's decision, right? It should be a decision made by Li Ru or Jia Xu, then Dong Wen is said to be a straw bag! It should be the result of the advice of these two people! Xun Yu said.

"Well, I'm afraid so!" Cao Cao nodded, with these two world poisoners as opponents, you really need to be careful, I think at the beginning, the two of them gave a lot of tricks to the princes of the world, especially Zhao Feng, there is really a feeling of chaos in the world! Look at Zhao Feng at the beginning, what he was like by these two people, you can know how "poisonous" these two people are!

"Lord, now that Zhao Feng's side has no worries, the north is close to unification, and there is a little emperor, which is exactly what the people want, presumably the strength should also develop very rapidly, so our army should develop as soon as possible!" Xun You said, "We can't be left too far behind by Zhao Feng, otherwise, once Zhao Feng captures Yuan Shao, the next target will be us!" ”

"Well, yes, we continue to develop Hongnong and Hedong counties according to the strategy we formulated before, with the ancient capital of Luoyang, even if it was burned down by Dong Zhuo back then, but at least the foundation is still there, and we are fully capable of developing it!" Cao Cao said.

"Well, it's just that there are too few people in Hedong, and millions of people were brought to Chang'an by Dong Zhuo back then!" Xun Yu sighed and interjected.

"It's okay, we can follow Zhao Feng's method, implement some policies to benefit the people, and encourage some people to settle in Sili, which can drive the development of Sili to a large extent!" Xun You thought for a while and said.

"That's right, just like Zhao Feng encouraged the people to settle in the grassland, Goguryeo, and Donghao!" Cao Cao's eyes lit up, didn't Zhao Feng implement his policy like this when he had just ended the battle with the eastern nations? It is precisely because of this that those sparsely populated places have suddenly become popular. Since Zhao Feng can, why can't he Cao Cao do this?

"If Wen Ruo still has Gongda, this matter will be handled by the two of you!" Cao Cao directly delegated power to the two.

"Yes! We will do our best! Seeing that Cao Cao trusted him so much, the two immediately made a guarantee.

"Okay, so it's hard for the two gentlemen!" Cao Cao smiled and nodded, and then thought about something else. That is, once Zhao Feng destroys Yuan Shao, he will have to confront Zhao Feng head-on, at that time, will Zhao Feng start a war with him? Once the war starts, will he be able to resist Zhao Feng's Liaodong Iron Cavalry?

"The lord is worried about Zhao Fengde's problem?" Xun You seemed to see through Cao Cao's thoughts, so he asked.

"Yes, Zhao Feng's strength is growing day by day, and it seems that he is getting farther and farther away from us!" Cao Cao sighed.

"This lord doesn't need to worry so much, Zhao Feng is not so strong that he is invincible!" Xun You said quite confidently.

"Oh? Why is that? Cao Cao looked at Xun You suspiciously, not understanding what Xun You meant by these words.

"Lord, Zhao Fengde's strength lies in the elite of his troops, but in terms of numbers, Zhao Fengde's soldiers and horses are at an absolute disadvantage! The territory under Zhao Feng's rule is huge, but Zhao Feng does not have enough troops to guard the territory under his rule, and the guards in the hinterland under his rule can be described as very weak! Xun You analyzed, "Zhao Feng's current strength can be described as overstretched!" Therefore, our army can just take advantage of Zhao Feng's disadvantage to deal with him, once he starts a war with our army, then our army can divide into multiple ways to fight back against Zhao Feng! At that time, Zhao Feng must not be able to take care of the left and right, and he will definitely lose to our army! ”

"Hmmm! What Gongda said is good! After listening to Xun You's words, the haze in Cao Cao's heart immediately disappeared.

As everyone knows, today's Zhao Feng is no longer the Zhao Feng in the eyes of the previous princes, the abundance of 300,000 Black Mountain Army and 300,000 Xiliang Army makes Zhao Feng no longer have to think about whether the soldiers and horses are sufficient, Zhao Feng is now thinking about whether the soldiers and horses are elite and whether they can sweep the entire Han Dynasty.

But the answer is definitely no! Because if he wants to sweep the entire Han Dynasty, his troops are far enough, and if he captures a city and a place, he must leave the defenders to guard, although in the current territory of Liaodong, Zhao Feng's soldiers and horses seem to be a lot, but once it is evenly spread over the entire Han Dynasty, or not the whole Han, it will be said that it is half of the Han River, it will seem too little!

If you are in a hurry, then it will really be as Xun You said, once the enemy fights with multiple forces, he Zhao Feng will definitely be defeated!

"Gongda, the recruitment list continues to be posted, and learn from Zhao Feng to train the militia! We want all of us to be soldiers, too! In addition, our troops must pay close attention to training, and the soldiers and horses under our rule must not be weaker than anyone else! As for the tiger and leopard ride, you have also seen the strength of Zhao Feng's guard battalion, so you will train according to that standard! Cao Cao ordered, his tone a little high-spirited.

"Yes!" Touched by Cao Cao's high-spirited appearance, Xun's uncle and nephew were also very excited, imagining Cao Cao's appearance of dominating the world, and both of them were shocked. But a trace of worry flashed in Xun Yu's eyes, but it only flashed, and neither Cao Cao nor Xun Yu noticed it.

"I, Cao Cao, also want to compete with Zhao Feng, no matter whether Zhao Feng's current strength is strong or weak, we just need to develop ourselves! As for the rest, leave it to God to decide! Hahaha! With that, Cao Cao looked up to the sky and laughed.

Seeing that Cao Cao's confident appearance was back again, the Xun uncle and nephew smiled slightly, nodded, and then retreated to do what they had to do!
