836, the structure of Youzhou

Yuan Shang knew very well that it was not easy for him to evacuate safely from Liyang now.

The 50,000 troops who had been assigned back to aid Yecheng were blocked by Zhu Weijun and could not move forward, which was an example, so now he must be prepared if he wants to retreat.

Fortunately, now these troops under him, in addition to the young and strong civilian servants recruited from Yecheng, many veterans belonging to the main elite are from all over Yizhou, so even if he leads the troops to evacuate Liyang, these main elites will not completely lose their military spirit because of the loss of Yecheng.

At the same time, in addition to the vassals of those families in the army who are on the side of Yecheng in Wei County, many other civil and military vassals under Yuan Shang's account Even if they have some family members in Yecheng, not the entire family is here, they can also reluctantly give up the family members on the side of Yecheng and continue to follow Yuan Shang to Youzhou.

In this way, after Yuan Shang gathered his subordinates and made a heart-to-heart exchange, it can be regarded as temporarily stabilizing the hearts of the middle and upper class vassals, so that he can arrange the evacuation from Liyang.

In general, if you want to retreat safely, the best strategy is naturally for the golden cicada to come out of its shell.

Therefore, Yuan Shang is ready to abandon a large number of young and strong civilian servants, give up a large number of logistics materials, and just take his elite main force to the north with lightning speed, maybe he can retreat to Youzhou safely.

Of course, Yuan Shang knew that he didn't have much time to delay, once Zhu Weijun got the evidence that Yecheng had already been captured, then the military spirit on Liyang's side would not be able to stabilize.

Therefore, Yuan Shang soon used the name of returning to Yecheng to organize 60,000 elite Yuan troops according to his original idea, and took the initiative to leave Liyang and retreat quickly in the direction of Fanyang in the north.

Of course, Yuan Shangjun's actions actually failed to deceive Zhu Wei, who has the game system of the Three Kingdoms, but Zhu Wei had discussed with Jia Xu, Xu Shu, Lu Su and others before about what Yuan Shang might do after his own sneak attack on Yecheng.

Now Yuan Shang's plan to lead the troops to flee is also in the estimation of Jia Xu and others, but according to Jia Xu's suggestion, Yuan Shang is to let him leave, of course, you can attack Yuan Shang on the way, reduce the troops that Yuan Shang took away, and weaken some of Yuan Shang's strength.

Then when Yuan Shang arrives in Jixian County, Yanguo County, Youzhou, and joins Yuan Xi and Yuan Tan, I am afraid that they will have some contradictions themselves, and maybe they will not need Zhu Weijun to fight them, and they will be able to kill each other invisibly.

And Zhu Wei can completely swallow Yuan Shang's abandoned army on Liyang's side after Yuan Shang retreats, and then swallow Yizhou and Qingzhou safely, completely digesting these two Yuan Shao territories.

In this way, Zhu Wei has basically unified the world, and as for Youzhou, a small northern land, he can send an army at will, and he can conquer it.

Besides, there was already Ma Teng's Fubo camp on the Youzhou side, although now Ma Teng's Fubo camp is mainly active in Dai County and Shanggu County, and has not really penetrated into the places of Fanyang, Yanguo, and Yuyang controlled by Yuan Xi, the assassin of Youzhou, but at least Zhu Weijun also has tentacles in Youzhou.

Judging from the current situation, the situation of Ma Teng's Fubo camp in Youzhou is very good, according to Zhu Wei's strategy to Ma Teng, Ma Teng is indeed in contact with the Wuhuan tribes on the Youzhou side, so as to compete with Yuan Xi for influence and control over the Wuhuan tribes.

Of course, Ma Teng is not a good gentleman, in order to gain a firm foothold in Youzhou at the beginning, Ma Teng also looted several tribes of Wuhuan and Xianbei people, and looted a lot of cattle, sheep and livestock for military use.

Now Ma Teng no longer needs to worry about logistics and supply in Youzhou, and he can be self-sufficient in Youzhou.

After all, Ma Teng is also a warlord in Xiliang, so he naturally knows how to survive in the territory, and now he is completely a flying army that Zhu Wei threw to Youzhou, and everything can only survive on his own.

Although Ma Teng's initial plundering behavior also attracted several attacks by the Wuhuan people and the Xianbei people, they were easily defused by Ma Teng in the end, and even after a wave of counter-killing, he obtained a lot of loot.

However, if you want to gain a foothold in the land of Youzhou, you need to show your strong strength first, just like a vicious wolf has to show its sharp canine teeth in order to let people know its ferocity.

Therefore, only through such a war can Ma Teng make the Wuhuan people and Xianbei people dare not underestimate Ma Teng, an external force, and then facilitate Ma Teng's activities in Youzhou, and deter the Wuhuan people and Xianbei people to negotiate with Ma Teng.

In fact, there is no need to worry about the previous act of looting the Wuhuan people and the Xianbei people, which will make Ma Teng completely hated by the Wuhuan people and the Xianbei people.

After all, Wuhuan and Xianbei were originally composed of many tribes, and Ma Teng's plundering of some of these tribes did not affect Ma Teng's re-establishment of relations with other tribes.

It's just that relatively speaking, the Xianbei people are more united, after all, the Xianbei people have a unified single Yu Ke than Neng, so in the face of Ma Teng's plundering of the Xianbei tribe in Youzhou, the Xianbei people's reaction is greater, and Kebi can be used as a Xianbei single to naturally make a point.

But when Zhu Wei gave Ma Teng the task, he didn't have any requirements to befriend the Xianbei people, so Ma Teng was not afraid of starting a war with the Xianbei people.

In fact, now Ma Teng can also see that the trend of Zhu Wei unifying the world is becoming more and more obvious, so after the unification of the Central Plains, the next step is naturally to take the surrounding alien races.

In this way, we can show the might of the new dynasty, and let the eight directions come to the court and the four sides come to congratulate, which is also one of the three fires of the new dynasty to establish the prestige of the country.

Now that Ma Teng is on the side of Youzhou, it is equivalent to Zhu Wei's vanguard army in the future to conquer the northern aliens, as long as Ma Teng can make achievements here, Ma Teng may be able to become the main general of the northern expedition against the aliens in the future.

What kind of meritorious service is fighting with one's own family in the Central Plains, and having the ability to open up territory for the new dynasty is the real merit of the marquis and worship the general.

Therefore, Ma Teng is not in a hurry to deal with the nominal emperor Yuan Xi in Youzhou, in fact, the most important thing in Youzhou is to deal with the relationship with Wuhuan and Xianbei people, as long as the problem of these two alien races can be solved, just relying on Yuan Xi's power, he can't jump for long in Youzhou at all.

But if the problem of Wuhuan and Xianbei people cannot be dealt with well, then when Zhu Wei conquers Youzhou in the future, Yuan Xi is very likely to borrow foreign troops from Wuhuan and Xianbei people to fight against Zhu Weijun, which will make Zhu Wei's army attack Youzhou more troublesome.

So now Ma Teng is steadily expanding his influence in Youzhou with the Fubo Battalion, winning over the Wuhuan people and deterring the Xianbei people, which makes Zhu Wei very satisfied with Ma Teng's actions in Youzhou.

So now Zhu Wei will also let Yuan Shang go to Youzhou, and then let Zhang Xiu and Zhang Liao attack Yuan Shang on the way, and weaken some of Yuan Shang's strength, and when Yuan Shang also arrives in Youzhou, Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan will naturally have the strength to be evenly matched.

At that time, Zhu Wei will naturally be able to sit and watch the play......
