"Cao Ying is defeated?" Except for Zhao Feng, who was prescient, he had already been mentally prepared for this result, and the rest of the people were all stunned, especially Mi Zhu, the old people in Xuzhou who were beaten all over the ground by Cao Ying's last Xuzhou battle, and almost didn't suspect that something was wrong with their ears.

"At the beginning, Zhang Xiu, please surrender. Hou Ying had an affair with the widow of the deceased uncle Zhang Ji, Zou Shi, and the embroidery was unbearable, so he listened to Jia Xu's plot and rebelled, and attacked the Cao army camp at night. Cao Ying was freed from the battle to the death, and his eldest son Cao Ang, his nephew Cao Anmin, and the personal guard general Dian Wei all died in the chaos. Jian Yong took this information from Liu Bei's hand and read it aloud, and after reading it, everyone was talking about it again. Jia Wenhe, poison also! Liu Bei sighed rarely. Everyone was silent, including Zhao Feng. can make the soldiers have enough food, the brave generals are like clouds, and the strategists are gathered to suffer such a big loss, Jia Xu really deserves his reputation.

"It's still a young strategist!" Zhao Feng looked at these senior officials in Xuzhou in the lobby, except for Chen Gong, it seems that no one else can be regarded as a strategist, right, or Chen Qun is barely half? And even if it is Chen Gong, I am afraid that with his IQ, it will be difficult to deal with Cao Ying or Yuan Shao's large group of people. But now Xiao Zhuge is only 15 years old, and Pang Xiaoniao is afraid that he is still young, and it is estimated that what he can get at this stage is Xu Shu. I don't know if he killed someone, and now he is called Xu Shu or Shan Fu.

"Lord, I'm afraid that Cao Ying's defeat will be a big loss to his vitality, why don't I follow the previous plan and take the opportunity to take the entire Yuzhou?" Mi Zhu was the first to propose, and his words were also recognized by many people. Up to now, Zhao Feng's original policy of taking Yuzhou first and encircling and encroaching on Yuanshu in Huainan has been unanimously recognized by the high-level of Xuzhou. Now Cao Ying, who is closest to Yuzhou, has fallen into bad luck and has no time to take care of it, and Liu Biao on the other side has long lost the ambition of being enterprising when he was young, so he naturally can't let go of such a good opportunity.

"That's right!" Liu Bei saw that Zhao Feng, the proposer, was also affirmative, and finally made up his mind. At this time, Bing Cao engaged in Guan Yu and said: "There are still more than 100,000 troops that I can mobilize in Xuzhou now, but nearly 60,000 of them are either newly recruited yellow turbans, or newly recruited recruits, or prisoners of Yuan Shu from the previous time, and they will not be able to complete the training and reorganization until the summer." Therefore, it is best not to move more than 50,000 troops in this dispatch. Guan Yu's words are not without purpose, this expedition is different from the last time Liu Bei went on the expedition, last time Liu Bei finally had a slightly decent opponent like Chen Lan, this time most of the states and counties are no great characters. When Cao Ying coerced the Son of Heaven before, although he also appointed several county guards, basically the level of fighting was not as good as Chen Lan, and the defenders generally only had thousands of county soldiers, not to mention that there were Gong Du and Liu Pi waiting there in Runan.

"That's fine, send out 50,000 troops." Liu Bei understood the key after thinking about it, and then looked at the people in the hall, and finally his eyes fell on Guan Yu. "Second brother, you will lead the troops in Yuzhou this time." After a pause, Liu Bei glanced at Zhao Feng again: "Bo Tao, this time you will also march with the second brother." ”

"No!" Guan Yu and Zhao Feng stood up together and answered. Then Liu Bei continued to assign people, Liao Hua, a local in Yuzhou, naturally had to follow together, in addition to Jian Yong, he also had to go together, and also took away a large number of middle-level and even grass-roots civil officials, after all, the place that was fought also needs to be governed. In the end, Hao Meng and Hou Cheng, who took the initiative to invite Ying, also went together.

Not to mention that at this time, everyone in Xuzhou City was gearing up to march, and in the prime minister's mansion of the Xuchang Imperial Court at this time, Cao Ying was still sad for the price he paid for his lust. "Ang'er!" Cao Ying muttered the name of his eldest son, and the sadness in his heart was even more incomprehensible. Although he said in front of everyone that he was really sad about the death of the general Dian Wei, but after all, it was for the sake of calming everyone's hearts, and if he really wanted to talk about the intimate Dian Wei, where could he compare to Cao Ang, his own flesh and blood?

Cao Ang has always been respectful and humble, and at the same time quite talented, not only Cao Ying loves him the most, but also the generals among the clan elders such as the Xiahou Yuan brothers, and the Cao Ren brothers also have a good relationship with him. This time, in order to save Cao Ying, Cao Ang gave him the horse to escape, but he died under the random arrows, and Cao Ying was not the only one who was sad in the whole army. What's even worse is that this tragedy could have been avoided, purely because Cao Ying was lustful and lustful to seduce other widows, Cao Ren and others couldn't say anything, but they really didn't think so, and the party Cao Ying was even more ashamed.

"Lord, the big thing is not good, Tan Malai reported, Liu Bei has sent Guan Yu as a general, Zhonglang will Zhao Feng assist, and the troops will be sent to Yuzhou. At the same time, Liu Bei also went to the table, showing Guan Yu as the pastor of Yuzhou. At this time, Xun Yu hurried over and brought Cao Ying a news that he didn't expect.

"Liu Bei Xiao'er is really good at picking the time, damn it!" Cao Ying also hated when he heard the news, he also knew his own affairs, and now his troops were already a little nervous after the defeat of Wancheng, not to mention that there was a Yuan Shao across the Yellow River. Although he is indecisive, once he dares to send troops to Yuzhou at this moment, he can think of what Yuan Shao will do with his ass.

"I can only hope that the local defenders in Yuzhou have withstood it!" Cao Ying had no choice but to think about it, this is basically the lack of naked strength, and there seems to be no other way than this.

"Lord, why don't you stop using the strategy of driving the tiger and devouring the wolf?" Xun You saw that Cao Ying didn't seem to be able to think of anything for a while, so he stepped forward cautiously and admonished.

"What do you mean?" Cao Ying's heart also moved, as if he thought of something.

"Although we can't draw any troops now, we can let Your Majesty issue an edict and seal the next two ministers of Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao as Runan or Ruyin Taishou, and when the time comes, the two sides will forget their righteousness, and the people of Jingzhou will naturally fight with Liu Bei's people." Xun Yu continued.

"That's it!" Cao Ying was a little noncommittal, he was actually not very optimistic about this method in his heart. First, Liu Biao is not a fool, and second, he is conservative, and he may not dare to provoke Liu Bei for the sake of a dead letter. But after thinking about it, even if it doesn't work, there is no loss to itself, so it doesn't hurt to use it, so I nodded in agreement. "By the way, Gongda, who is this Zhao Feng? has actually done Xuzhou Zhonglang General, why haven't you heard of it before? Cao Ying asked.

"The minister doesn't know much, he must be a nobody!" Xun Yu doesn't care about intelligence, so he doesn't know much about it. "Don't underestimate this person!" A voice came from outside the door, "Bonghyo? Cao Ying and Xun You both turned their heads to look at the scribe who had just entered the door. He is Cao Ying's most trusted advisor, the military advisor sacrifices wine Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao.

"Why did Bong Hyo say this?" Cao Ying hurriedly asked, he knew that Guo Jia was a rare talent in the world, and the person he valued was by no means an idle person.

"Lord, last time we defeated Xuzhou, Jia Shen felt that the Xuzhou army was able to see through our plan to lure the snake out of the hole, and there must be wise and resourceful people to give advice to Liu Bei. Therefore, after returning to the army, Jia sent a number of inquiries, and finally determined that the person who designed it was this Zhao Feng. This person was born in Buyi, and he followed Liu Bei when he was in Pingyuan County until he went to Xuzhou. Guo Jia said slowly.

"I see!" Cao Ying and Xun You both had a sense of sudden realization.

"Plus!" Guo Jia continued to drop a bombshell: "Recently, Liu Bei recruited a rebel and subdued several yellow turbans, and it is rumored that it was also this person's idea. Moreover, the previous defeat of Lu Bu in Xuzhou and his death seemed to be this person's plan. There is even news that Liu Bei has given Diao Chan to Zhao Feng. ”

"What? Diao? When Cao Ying heard the last sentence, he almost didn't jump. As a senior beauty appreciation expert (commonly known as a pervert), Cao Ying has also coveted Diao Chan for a long time, but he didn't expect her to fall into the hands of Zhao Feng, which made him angry! "Come with me to meet the Holy One!" Cao Ying immediately rushed to the palace impatiently, preparing to face Emperor Han Xian to implement his plan to drive away the tiger and devour the wolf.

Not to mention that Cao Ying was angry, at this time in Yecheng, Hebei, "It's hard work, sit down!" In the Great General's Mansion, Yuan Shao, who was sitting on the main seat, said to a young general with a rare and pleasant face.

"Thank you, my lord!" After the man thanked him, he sat down on the side seat. He is Yuan Shao's nephew, Gao Gan, and it happened that Yuan Shao was feasting the ministers in the mansion at this time. In the previous round Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan fought fiercely in Liaodong, Gao Gan was ordered to lead an expedition to merge the state at the same time, and now he returned victoriously, and the entire state was also included in Yuan Shao's sphere of influence.

"How many times have I said it, this is home, just call your uncle!" Yuan Shao said with a smile, everyone knew that he was very important to this nephew, and even sent him to take charge of the state, and even his three sons did not have this treatment. Of course, the senior cadres did not live up to the trust and successfully won the state for him.

"General Gao is really gratifying to take the state for the lord and merge the state again, I will give the lord a cup!" Strategist Guo Tu is the best at observing words and feelings, and he also takes the opportunity to have fun at this time. For a while, everyone raised their glasses, and the atmosphere was very warm.

"Lord, Cao Ying just defeated Wancheng before, and now General Gao has taken the state again. Our strength has increased greatly, why not take the opportunity to take Yanzhou? The advisor said at this time.

"No, my lord. Although we have won Youzhou and Merge State, but now our vitality has not recovered, and it is not appropriate to work hard anymore! Another strategist, Feng Ji, who had always been at odds with Fu Zhu, immediately jumped out to oppose him when he saw this. For a while, all the strategists also had different opinions, Tian Feng and the trial matched the views of the frustrated professor, but Guo Tu and Xu You stood on the side of Feng Ji.

"Huh?" Looking at the arguing crowd, Yuan Shao felt that his head hurt a little again, and then the old problem of indecision was also committed. After several hesitations, Yuan Shaosuo said: "Today we are only to celebrate Gan'er's victorious return, and other things will be talked about tomorrow." Come, drink! ”

"Yes!" The strategists also raised their glasses, and the atmosphere was very peaceful for a while. Only Fu Zhi and Tian Feng glanced at each other, and they both sighed in their hearts.
