Zhang Bao learned from Yang Qiu that Cao Ren led the army to withdraw to Lu County, and immediately ordered Guan Hai to lead the army to take over the four county seats of Boxian, Liangfu, Juping, and Chixian. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 At the same time, the good news of Guan Yu and Gao Ran also reached Fenggao.

Zhang Bao ordered the heralds to call Guan Yu, Gao Lan, Hou Er, and Chen Gong to Fenggaocheng together. Then, Zhang Bao selected eight brothers from the Zhang family's personal guards who were at the peak of their qi training and asked them to join the special combat team. The total number of special combat teams reached the full strength of 50 people.

Zhang Bao said to the special combat team: "Brothers, I will give you five years, and all of you must enter the realm of military generals, otherwise you will take the initiative to leave the special combat team." I'll provide you with enough food, and as for the time of the exercise, you can arrange your own workouts, and I just want the results. ”

"Yes!" Everyone shouted excitedly.

A day later, Zhang Bao looked at Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, Dian Wei, Guan Hai, Gao Lan, Hou Er, Hou San, and Chen Gong in Fenggaocheng City Lord's Mansion: "Everyone, let's celebrate the successful victory of Taishan County first, and come to have a drink together." ”

"My lord, please!" Everyone raised their glasses to Zhang Bao and saluted, and then drank it all.

After Zhang Bao finished drinking, he looked at everyone with a smile: "The governance office of Qingzhou has been moved to Fenggao City, and from then on, Taishan County is our base camp." We want to take this as the center, continue to expand around, I have a series of development plans in my heart, this time let you come here, is to implement the plan in my heart, and I hope that you can take the initiative to play your own wisdom in the future, and continue to work hard to strengthen our strength! ”

"Yes!" Everyone hugged their fists again.

……

After Cao Cao learned that the Qingzhou army had marched into Taishan County, instead of being nervous, he let out a sigh of relief: "Okay, it's okay!" Let's continue to attack Wancheng, and if we don't kill Zhang Xiu, we will not quit. ”

Xi Zhicai nodded and said, "Lord, do you want General Xu Huang to send some reinforcements?" ”

Cao Cao thought for a moment when he heard this: "Where is General Lejin?" ”

"Subordinates are in" Le Jin stood up and hugged Cao Cao.

Cao Cao looked at Le Jin and said, "Wen Qian, you take three thousand foot soldiers to support General Xu Huang." Remember, you only need to defend the county seat of Huxian, and you don't need to care about what Zhang He in Tongguan does. ”

"Subordinates take orders!" Le Jin received the order and turned to leave.

Cao Cao then smiled and said to Xi Zhicai: "Now the military advisor is relieved, right?" General Xu Huang should be able to deal with Zhang He and Hua Xiong. I asked Lejin to go too, so I added double insurance, so the military advisor didn't need to worry about the division. ”

Xi Zhicai smiled and said, "Lord, should we send another envoy to negotiate with Zhang Bao?" ”

"What are you negotiating? General Cao Ren will definitely be able to stop Zhang Bao's attack, and Zhang Bao hates me so much now, I am afraid that whoever we send will not end well. Cao Cao shook his head and said.

Seeing this, Xi Zhicai looked at Xun Yu on the side. Xun Yu then hugged his fists and said: "Lord, Nanyang Zhang Xiu is now a stranger, and we will take him down soon." And Lu Bu in Xuzhou also had a conflict with Liu Bei at this time, which just gave us the opportunity to divert Zhang Bao's attention. If Zhang Bao attacked Yanzhou without scruples at this time, or he sent people to make a big fuss in Xudu, we wouldn't be able to fight Zhang Xiu with peace of mind! ”

"Smack!"

Cao Cao slapped the table and said, "I knew that as soon as this Zhang Bao ran away, our trouble would come." And that Liu Bei and Lu Bu, I waited for a year and they were all fine, as soon as I left on the front foot, they had an accident, really stuffed! ”

Xun Yu shook his head when he heard this: "Lord, the matter has come to this, we should be prepared to deal with it!" You also know that the bud has always acted unexpectedly. Even if Zhang Bao can't attack Yanzhou, he only needs to make a small move, which will make us very helpless. After all, the summer harvest will be in two months. The harvest has not been very good in the past two years, and we don't have much grain in stock, and now that this summer is a good harvest, we can't let that bud be ruined. ”

Cao Cao frowned when he heard this: "Why don't we go back now?" How about attacking Zhang Xiu after the summer harvest? ”

"No! Don't give up halfway! "Xi Zhicai hugged his fists.

Cao Cao was speechless when he heard this: "Okay, who do you say you want to send to negotiate with Zhang Bao?" How to negotiate? ”

Xun Yu then hugged his fists and said: "Lord, this matter is very important, it is better to let your subordinates go in person." ”

Cao Cao hurriedly waved his hand when he heard this: "No, Wen Ruoke is my right-hand man, you and Zhicai can't go." We only need to tell one person how to negotiate with Zhang Bao to accomplish this task. You don't need to take any chances. ”

Xi Zhicai squinted his eyes when he heard this: "Lord, if that's the case, then let Zhongde go." ”

"Cheng Yu? I'm also a little uneasy. Since there is no suitable person, let him go. Someone, Cheng Yu came to see me. Cao Cao said loudly to the outside world.

Five minutes later, Cheng Yu hurriedly came: "Lord, you called me?" ”

Cao Cao nodded when he heard this: "Zhongde, you go to Mount Tai and negotiate with Zhang Bao, so that he doesn't make trouble behind our backs." ”

Xun Yu continued: "Brother Zhongde, after you meet Zhang Bao, in addition to talking about the main bus generation, you must direct Zhang Bao's attention to Xuzhou. Didn't Lu Bu take advantage of the battle between Liu Bei and Yuan Shu to rob Liu Bei's Xuzhou? You managed to guide Zhang Bao to attack Lu Bu in Xuzhou. As long as Zhang Bao has something to do, we don't need to worry about him making small moves. ”

"Yes!" Cheng Yu clasped his fists and saluted Cao Cao, then turned to leave.

After Cheng Yu left, Cao Cao frowned and said: "Let Zhang Bao attack Lu Bu, then Xuzhou will not become Zhang Bao's territory?" I'm unwilling! ”

Xi Zhicai squinted his eyes and said, "Lord, the world is unpredictable!" That Lu Bu is the number one fierce general in the world, and Zhang Bao's attack on Lu Bu may not be successful. And we also happened to take the opportunity to restrict Liu Bei's development, Liu Bei, you also know, you can't look down on it! ”

Cao Cao nodded when he heard this: "I understand!" If we can contain some of Zhang Bao's troops, then Zhang Bao's attack on Lu Buke will not be so smooth. Let's take a trip to the public festival. ”

Gongjie is Wang Kuang's word. After Wang Kuang arrived, Cao Cao said to Wang Kuang without waiting for Wang Kuang to salute: "Gongjie, you go to Hebei and let Yuan Shao transfer troops to contain the Qingzhou army." said that Zhang Bao wanted to fight Lu Bu in Xuzhou and asked him to wait for an opportunity to attack Qingzhou. ”

Wang Kuang nodded when he heard this: "My subordinates understand, and my subordinates will go to Jizhou." ”

After Wang Kuang left, Cao Cao looked at Xi Zhicai and said: "Zhicai, order the army to prepare to storm the county seat of Wanxian County immediately, and we must take Wancheng in a battle tonight." Ordered Yu Ban, Cao Chun, Chu Yan, Xiahou Yuan, and Xiahou Yuan to attack the city together. ”

"Command!" Xi Zhicai saluted Cao Cao and turned around to give an order.

……

The day after Zhang Bao sent the Qingzhou army to attack Taishan County, Li Ru received the news through his intelligence network. He immediately consulted with Xun You.

Li Ru said to Xun You: "Gongda, Qingzhou has sent troops to Taishan County, it seems that the lord should be out of danger, should we make a move?" ”

When Xun You heard this, he first said happily: "Really? It seems that the lord is finally out of danger! The lord is taking revenge on Cao Cao. Shall we be here......"

Xun You immediately frowned and thought about it. After a while, Xun You shook his head and said, "We can't move yet." First, we don't know the lord's intentions, whether he plans to take Yanzhou, or only attack Taishan County to take revenge on Cao Cao. And I guess it's probably the latter.

Cao Cao is now using troops against Zhang Xiu, and that Zhang Xiu will definitely be defeated. Next, Cao Cao was bound to conquer the Quartet in the name of the Son of Heaven. And Chen Gongtai will most likely persuade the lord to take the opportunity to attack Lu Bu in Xuzhou. This is most likely what Cao Cao does not want to see.

The lord is strong and Lu Bu is weak. If I were a drama talent, in order to seek benefits for Cao Cao, I would definitely persuade Cao Cao to try to contain the lord. And Cao Cao wants to contain the lord, and the best candidate is Yuan Shao of Jizhou.

In this way, the lord will definitely send a general to defend Yuan Shao, so that the pace of the lord's attack on Xuzhou will slow down. This is exactly the effect that Cao Cao wants. ”

"Hehehe...... Gongda, you are really amazing, your analysis and judgment are exactly the same as mine. Moreover, there is intelligence that in order to prevent us from sending troops, Cao Cao also sent Lejin with 3,000 troops to support Xu Huang in Huxian. His intentions were already clear. Li Ru smiled.

Xun Yu nodded when he heard this: "Then we will make his trick impossible to succeed." ”

Li Ru nodded when he heard this: "We can let Zhang Liao and Zhang He change guards." Then let Zhang Liao and Gao Shun lead the troops to march into the state together. With Zhang Liao's elite cavalry and Gao Shun's trapping camp, they are simply invincible weapons. ”

Xun You nodded and said, "This is not enough!" I personally marched with the two generals and annexed the state. Yuan Shao's army is still attacking each other with Gongsun Zhan, and we had better take advantage of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's lack of time to take the entire territory of the state for the lord. ”

Li Ru nodded when he heard this: "Then it's hard work." Don't worry, I will guard Chang'an for the lord. There is General Zhang He to defend Ma Teng, and Ma Teng can't make any waves. And Xu Huang and Le Jin had insufficient soldiers and horses in their hands, and it was also a dream to attack Tongguan. ”

Xun You nodded when he heard this: "This attack is a heavy task, and the courage to defend Ma Teng is not light. Let's divide the soldiers and horses under our command fifty-fifty. How about you and I bring 50,000 each? ”

Li Ru said with a straight face when he heard this: "You are six and I am four!" Tongguan 15,000, Zhang He 20,000, and Chang'an 5,000 is enough. ”

Hearing this, Xun You waved his hand again and again: "No, I will attack and merge the state, and there are still more and more prisoners to use, but you have to deter and reduce the small ones when you defend Chang'an." Five thousand is definitely not enough. Don't talk about it, you and I are five or five points. Only when the rear is stable, I have a way back, even if I lose the attack, it's a big deal to retreat, and you have to guard our lair, don't be careless. ”

Li Ru shook his head and smiled when he heard this: "Okay! You guy has a point! I really don't know how the lord discovered your talent. I've locked you up for over a year, and I haven't even found out you're a prodigy! ”

Xun You smiled when he heard this: "Thanks to you for imprisoning me for more than a year, otherwise I really wouldn't have figured out some things." ”

Li Ru shook his head when he heard this, waved his hand with a general smile, and Xun Yu left.

If Zhang Bao knew that Xun You and Li Ru could analyze current affairs so clearly, he didn't know how happy he should be.

After Li Ru waited for Xun You to leave, he came to Zhen Mi's door alone.

"Knock knock!" Li Ru knocked lightly on the door three times.

"Who?" Zhen Mi's voice came from inside.

Hearing this, Li Ru took two steps back and said, "Madam, it's me, Li Ru." ”

Hearing this, Zhen Mi opened the door and looked at Li Ru and said, "Is there something wrong with the military advisor looking for me?" ”

Li Ru nodded and said, "Madam, good news, the lord has returned to Qingzhou!" ”

Zhen Mi first felt a little disappointed when he heard this, and he was disappointed that Zhang Bao couldn't find himself in the first place.

Li Ru hurriedly said after seeing Zhen Mi's expression: "Madam, the head of the family and the housemother are in Qingzhou!" ”

When Zhen Mi heard this, he immediately came back to his senses and smiled: "Strategist, I want to go to Qingzhou." ”

Li Ru nodded when he heard this: "Madame can go wherever she wants, and her subordinates will arrange it, and Madame can leave tomorrow morning." However, the lady must wear men's clothes, put on a fake beard, and follow the five soldiers dressed as vendors before leaving, otherwise the subordinates are not allowed. ”

Of course, Zhen Mi knew that Li Ru had good intentions, so he nodded again and again: "Everything is subject to the arrangement of the military advisor." ”

"Well, Madame has made preparations early, and my subordinates will arrange it." Li Ru hugged his fists and bowed and left.
