Xu Shu left, or was angry with Liu Zhang. After all, he didn't even have many talks, and he was directly angry with Liu Zhang's nonsense. Of course, this is not nonsense, Liu Zhang has not done anything good this year, although the most primitive rifle is still hopeless, but the more bulky earthen cannon has the possibility of realization. It's just that this transportation and walking ability is really poor, Liu Zhang is just a blind man crossing the river for this thing, and he understands the principle that he always feels that there are a lot of things missing, and the things he makes are a little nondescript......

But no matter how bad, it's still a cannon. When the time comes, he will give Cao Cao a surprise, so Liu Zhang is really not afraid of Cao Cao. It's just that the north needs some changes, it needs some war. It is only through war that the people will yearn for peace and stability. When it was almost time, Liu Zhang would go to fight Cao Cao.

"Always keep an eye on Cao Cao's movements, and notify me immediately as long as there is any large-scale use of troops." History has changed, and Liu Zhang is not sure what Cao Cao will do. Maybe he took advantage of the high morale and the exhaustion of the Yuan army, and it was possible for him to launch an attack on Jizhou immediately. At least Liu Zhang thinks that it is himself and will definitely do it. Beating the water dogs is a very easy thing to do.

Chen Qun saluted and said, "If the lord Cao Cao attacks Jizhou, will we send troops to annex the state?" Now that Cao Cao agreed, Chen Qun felt that they could arrange it in advance.

Liu Zhang thought for a moment and said, "Changwen, do you have any plans?" "Liu Zhang is thinking about whether to do it with Cao Cao now, or wait for him to kill, or even say that he will leave the north alone and go to the south to die first?

Chen Qun thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry for the time being, Yuan Shao is not dead, they are not really powerless to resist. At present, we still need to wait and see, and wait until Cao Cao's next move, or after Yuan Shao is dead. "The spies got the news that Yuan Shao was seriously ill, but after all, he was not dead yet, and there was no chaos in the entire north.

If Yuan Shao died, the north would immediately be in chaos. At that time, it was the time for Cao Cao to show his means, but it didn't seem to be long before Wuhuan seemed to have a rebellion. With the addition of Yuan Shang and a large number of followers, this wolf from the north made Badun's ambition burst and gradually became a threatening force to the Central Plains Dynasty, and it was precisely because of this that Cao Cao and his platoon sent troops to attack.

For Cao Cao's method of attacking Wuhuan, Liu Zhang liked it very much. Liu Zhang, who was himself, would definitely not be much softer than Cao Cao, and even more ruthless because of their actions. Of course, Liu Zhang's ruthlessness is different from Cao Cao's bloodbath, it is definitely the leader of killing all the tribes, as long as he dares to jump out of one person, then kill one. It is better to slaughter all the alien races, and there must be no more hidden dangers. As for the common people Liu Zhang, he has a lot of means to train, and iron-blooded tenderness is probably in this way.

Liu Zhang nodded and said, "Let's wait and see, Luoyang should pay attention to dealing with those remnants, and the rest should be careful." Liu Zhang felt that he was waiting and watching for a while, and it was impossible for him to send troops immediately anyway.

Liu Zhang is waiting, Cao Cao can't be waiting. It's September, and the weather is getting cooler. At this time, they were faced with the question of whether to withdraw the army, if they did not withdraw the army, Cao Cao would have to face the severe cold in the north, to be honest, they did not have an advantage in this regard, and once it snowed heavily, I am afraid that it would be difficult to do it.

"Gongda has a rare opportunity at this moment......" Cao Cao wanted to speak and stopped, Cao Cao really didn't want to miss this opportunity. The Yuan army had just been defeated, and it was demoralization at the moment.

Xun You thought for a while and said: "The lord is not a good opportunity at this moment, even if our army is full of food and grass, it can't be too persecutive. As the saying goes, the poor can't be chased, Yuan Shao has just been defeated, and if the lord presses them, they will inevitably become mourning soldiers. On the other hand, winter is coming, and the soldiers have no warm clothing. It has been more than half a year since the troops were dispatched a year ago, and once it reaches a stalemate in the second half of the year, I am afraid that our army will be defeated. "Attacking Jizhou is a prudent matter, and troops must not be sent now.

After Cao Cao heard this, he looked at Guo Jia on the side and asked, "What does Fengxiao mean?" "Guo Jia did not make a plan in the first battle of Guandu, but Cao Cao's trust in him has not diminished.

Guo Jia first took out a letter and said, "My lord, please look at ......" This is a letter that only arrived in Yanjin today, and Xun Yu sent it over as soon as he got the news.

Cao Cao tore it open and looked at it, and Cao Cao suppressed the irritability in his heart for a long time. Sun Ce is dead, and Jiangdong seems to have fallen into the hands of Sun Ce's younger brother Sun Quan? His allies in the south actually died, but fortunately, Liu Zhang did not act because Sun Ce died. If that's the case, I'm afraid Danyang will soon fall into Liu Zhang's hands......

"This matter is not in a hurry, do you have anything to say about attacking Jizhou Fengxiao?" Cao Cao is not in a hurry about the affairs of the south, Sun Ce is dead and Sun Quan is still there.

Guo Jia didn't think about it and said directly: "Slow down, I heard that Yuan Shao likes the third son, the eldest son has always been at odds with the third son, and the lord only needs to wait." Next year, we will send troops to attack Jizhou, and we will definitely be able to win in one battle. But what worries us the most is the west, doesn't the lord think Liu Zhang is too quiet? "Yuan Shao's general trend is gone, and victory or defeat is only a matter of time.

Cao Cao was silent for a while and said, "We have already started planting potatoes, Liu Zhang has a lot of books on agriculture there, and our people have read a lot. I really can't imagine that there are such people under Liu Zhang, and the grain production can increase per mu, and I am afraid that we will not be short of grain in a few years. "For Liu Zhang, Cao Cao is really worried, this is a person who is even more cunning than Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao was reluctant to listen to his advisor's words, but Liu Zhang was different. He was completely unassertive, and he really let his adviser's words go unchecked. When Cao Cao died, he really wanted to subdue him, but unfortunately that man would rather die than give in.

Guo Jia said with a smile: "Lord, we want to let Liu Zhang move, instead of continuing to be silent." Didn't the lord say before that he would give him the annexation? This time, I went back to the lord and asked the Son of Heaven to let Liu Zhang lead the state pastor, and after the New Year, the lord could send troops with Liu Zhang. Guo Jia definitely didn't believe that Liu Zhang had nothing to do all day, you must know that Liu Zhang's advisers were not worse than him. Those people have such a big advantage in their own lordship, if they don't move, it is definitely a conspiracy.

In the end, Cao Cao withdrew his troops and waited for Jian'an to send troops to attack Jizhou in the sixth year, and this time the withdrawal of troops was seen by smart people. Yuan Shao's defeat has become a trend, not to mention that Xu Shu also knows that Liu Zhang is supporting Cao Cao, which is a bit more terrifying. Along the way, he was anxious to go towards Pingyuan County......

Seeing Xu Shu coming back, Liu Bei asked eagerly: "Is Liu Zhang, the military advisor, willing to send troops to form an alliance?" During this time, the entire Yuan Shao's territory was in a state of turmoil, and he was also extremely worried about Liu Bei, who was hiding in Pingyuan County. He was afraid that his side was not ready, and Cao Cao's 100,000 army would come.

Xu Shu sighed and said, "The lord Liu Zhang is unwilling to form an alliance, and he even secretly helps Cao Cao. The most hateful thing is that he said that he couldn't wait for Cao Cao to attack Jizhou immediately...... "Speaking of this, Xu Shu is really helpless." For the stunned Qing, Xu Shu became more and more annoying.

Liu Bei got up a little surprised: "Why?" Could it be that he is confident that he can deal with Cao Cao? Yuan Shao's army of more than 500,000 was defeated, how many troops did he Liu Zhang have? ”

Xu Shu sat on the side and took a few sips of tea before saying: "Liu Zhang is not much worse than Yuan Shao, he understands the truth of cold lips and teeth, but he thinks that he is not afraid of Cao Cao." We don't have to think about Liu Zhang, now we have to go to Yuan Tan. "Liu Zhang can already give up, and he must ally Yuan Tan.

Liu Bei sighed and said: "Liu Zhangkong has such a big force but is unwilling to deal with Cao Cao, once Cao Cao rectifies the north, how can Liu Zhang be undefeated?" "Liu Bei really feels sorry for the Han family, or he feels sorry for himself.

Zhao Yun followed but was silent, to be honest, he had a bad impression of Liu Zhang. He felt that Liu Zhang was a little too stunned, but he didn't say much.

"I'll leave for Qingzhou after two days of rest, Yuan Shao left Yuan Shang in Jizhou, which already shows Yuan Shao's thoughts, at this moment we ally with Yuan Tan, and even help him recapture Jizhou, when we occupy Youzhou, he won't say anything." Xu Shu thought very clearly, this was Gongsun Zhan's territory before, and now Zhao Yun has found a lot of Gongsun Zhan's old department, and he only needs an order to change the owner of this Youzhou in an instant.

Liu Bei opened his mouth but said, "The military advisor is tired, please go down and rest quickly." Xu Shu has been running around a lot along the way, but Liu Bei can only secretly accumulate strength.

As Zhao Yun and Xu Shu went down to rest, Sun Gan on the side said: "The lord Liu Zhang is unwilling to unite, so it seems that Cao Cao will definitely not have a conflict with Liu Zhang in the short term." Now Cao Cao has withdrawn his troops, but this is not that Cao Cao let Yuan Shao go. Next year, Cao Cao's army will come again, how can the Yuan army, which has lost its sharpness, resist Cao Cao's tiger and wolf army? "This is not only Sun Gan who understands this, but Liu Bei and Xu Shu both understand, which is why Xu Shu wants to go out of Liu Bei so quickly, and he wants to go out of Cao Cao.

"Big brother, we now have more than 50,000 soldiers and horses, so if Yuan Tan unites with us, he will definitely have a battle with that Cao Cao." Guan Yu felt that as long as there was not too much gap with Cao Cao's troops, then Cao Cao's generals would not be like this in his opinion. Compared to that Yan Liangwen and ugliness, there is no difference.

Liu Bei looked at the two brothers and shook his head: "Cao Cao is so powerful, we must not be careless." Everything will be discussed between the military advisor and Yuan Tan...... "Liu Bei was a little tired, and Liu Zhang's non-cooperation made him feel that he was in danger. In fact, Yuan Shao's defeat put too much pressure on them, which made Liu Bei feel that it was difficult for him to confront Cao Cao head-on. Under the combination of many emotions, even if it has not happened yet, Liu Bei feels that it is difficult to continue. 10
