In the grass hall, the atmosphere was a little abnormal, Guan Ning advised Gongsun Yi to give up Suozao County and lead the troops to occupy the territory elsewhere, but seeing that Gongsun Yi was silent for a long time, Guan Ning was very worried for a while.

In fact, Guan Ning didn't know that Gongsun Yi did not ignore the suggestion, but blamed himself for not discovering the seriousness of the problem, once Yuan Shao and others arrived, not only may they completely lose their base, but the foundation laid these days is very likely to be someone else's wedding dress.

Once Yuan Shao bites him back, saying that he is Dong Zhuo's party, even if he has the previous feat of assassinating Dong Zhuo, it will still cause endless trouble, and people are terrible, especially what the leader of the anti-Dong Alliance said.

Even Tian Yu thought that it was strategic to lead the army to occupy this place at the beginning, Gongsun Yi was not strict, presumably the time had not come, and in fact, Gongsun Yi actually did not have a strategic vision in his heart.

The reason why Tian Yu led the troops to occupy the sour jujube was just because according to the historical trend, the Kwantung Righteous Army would gather here, and Gongsun Yi, who was bent on defeating Dong Zhuo, would think so much, and now Guan Ning's words made Gongsun Yi feel empowered, and even a little overwhelmed.

"Where can we go?" After half the salary, Gongsun Yi sighed and muttered.

Guan Ning breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that Gongsun Yi seemed a little reluctant, but he was still willing to listen to the suggestion, and hurriedly said: "Although it is not the world's big and arbitrary, but for the lord, there are not many choices, I don't know if the lord has ideas?" ”

"What does You'an think of Yanzhou and Jizhou?" Gongsun Yi looked at Guan Ning and asked.

Gongsun Yi knows very well that in history, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao started from these two states, and they gradually became stronger, and the soldiers were strong enough to win the world.

"Although Yanzhou has developed trade and rich territory, it is a land of a hundred battles, and there are many powerful people in the state, and with the current strength of the cavalry army, it can occupy it for a while, but it is not a long-term place; The Yuan family in Jizhou is too powerful, if we go to the Yuan family, it will inevitably clash with the Yuan family, and the local gentry will resist us, even if we win, it will be a great loss of vitality. Guan Ning shook his head slightly, not supporting Gongsun Yi's idea.

"Bingzhou is closer to our army, where the people are fierce and rich in war horses, is it a suitable place to occupy?"

Gongsun Yi knew very well that in the era of cold weapons, the strategic value of cavalry, an elite cavalry, which could rely on strong mobility, would pose a fatal threat to the enemy's supply lines, rushing into the county to burn and loot, and almost destroy the psychological defense line of the defenders.

When the two armies face each other, groups of cavalry can easily break through the flank army formation, whether it is pursuing or evacuating, coming and going like the wind, and Bingzhou is rich in war horses, and the iron cavalry is well-known in the world.

"No, the state is close to Qianghu, there are often wars on the border, although our army is strong, but it is still unable to fight with foreign peoples, you can't go, Hanoi is too guarded by Zhang Yang and the soldiers are full of food, and the iron cavalry of the state is invincible, our army is mostly an infantry army, and it is not suitable for war, once the attack is unfavorable, the back road will be intercepted and there is no way to retreat!"

Guan Ning still shook his head, objecting to Gongsun Yi's idea.

"How is Xuzhou?" The people here are outstanding and talented, Gongsun Yi naturally has some intentions, and Liu Bei in history fought against Cao Cao with the help of the soldiers of Xuzhou and a state, which can be seen.

"Xuzhou Tao Qian's intentions are unknown, he has been governing Xuzhou for many years, and he has many in-laws with wealthy families, which are deep-rooted and difficult to shake, and it is difficult to gain a firm foothold."

Guan Ning paused and continued: "Tao Qian's Danyang elite soldiers are very brave, when General Li Ling led 5,000 dead soldiers to fight against the Xiongnu 80,000 elite cavalry, almost forced back the Xiongnu army, isolated and finally defeated, less than 500 dead soldiers remained, these 5,000 dead soldiers are all Danyang elite soldiers. ”

"What about Yangzhou?" Gongsun Yi asked helplessly.

I thought that the world would change, and the pattern of the heroes competing for the deer was about to come to a curtain, who ever wanted Guan Ning to analyze, Gongsun Yi was stunned to find that the world is so big, there are people in each county and county who are faintly occupied, if it weren't for Guan Ning's point, wait for the defeat of Dong Zhuo and then fight for the territory, it is very likely to be defeated.

"Yangzhou Yuan Shu is dominant, the region is rich, the soldiers are good and the food is sufficient, if our army goes, as long as our army is blocked north of the Huai River, our army will not be able to support it just by consuming it, let alone forcibly crossing the Huai River to attack Yuan Shu, it will only bring about its own destruction."

"Jingzhou is always okay, the geography is vast, and all forces are gathered, as long as Chen Bing Jingzhou, there must be a chance to occupy one side!"

Jingzhou is vast, and Liu Biao, the later lord of Jingzhou, has just arrived, and has not yet won the support of the Cai family and the Kuai family of the Jingxiang clan.

"Jingzhou is indeed a choice, but Jingzhou is too remote to control the overall situation, so it is a good choice to build in the next, Gongsun Zhan, the father of the lord, occupies the middle of Youzhou, and goes to Youzhou to occupy the northern land."

"It's just that Youzhou Mu Liu Yu is virtuous and Shude, deeply loved by the people, if he leads the army to attack, I am afraid that the chaos in the state is gradually rising, but he can use the army of Ling Zun to disintegrate the clan and forcibly rule, Liu Yu's forces are located in the north of Youzhou, which is close to foreign clans, and there are also many hidden dangers."

Guan Ning talked about it, and between his words, he was more inclined to go to the land of Youzhou, where there is still a foundation, if the entire occupation of the north and south of Youzhou echoes, just with the land of Youzhou, it can be attacked and defended, which is enough to be proud of the world.

"As for Qingzhou, the Yellow Turban Army is all over the place, and the people are not living in ruins, if our army is stationed in it, I am afraid it will become the main direction of the Yellow Turban Army, if the main attack can successfully take Youzhou, and make every effort to develop for several years, in the future, you can lead the troops to the west and merge the state, attack Jizhou in the south, and gradually encroach on the surrounding states, and lead the troops to the south in the future, the world can be determined!"

Gongsun Yi admired in his heart, Guan Ning's long-term strategy was exciting, and Gongsun Yi had one thing very clear, that is, Guan Ning deliberately did not say it, that is, if he went to the land of Youzhou, he must become the lord of Youzhou in the future.

Throughout the ages, up to the home of the emperor and princes, competing for the position of power, down to the home of the people, competing for gold and silver property, drawing swords against each other, it is not uncommon to fight, Gongsun Yi is the lord of Youzhou, ruling one side of the prestige.

It's just that Gongsun Yi, as a concubine, wants to become the lord of Youzhou, and the only way is to snatch power from his brother Gongsun Xu, which is exactly what Guan Ning did not say, Gongsun Yi knows very well that all this is inevitable.

If you want to defeat the powerful Yuan Shao, the only way is to gather the power of Youzhou, but Gongsun Yi is very skeptical that in the opposition of Gongsun Chan and his subordinates, and in the hands of Gongsun Xu, who is deeply loved by Gongsun Zhan, can take the power of Youzhou.

Although Gongsun Yi deeply admired Guan Ning's strategic decisions as Longzhong did, Gongsun Yi already had his own plans in his heart, and while developing according to Guan Ning's suggestions, he did not intend to hang himself from a tree.

Gongsun Yi suddenly took a deep breath, got up and saluted Guan Ning with a fist: "I'm afraid it will be difficult for General Ben to appoint you as an official for the time being, Wan Wanghaihan." ”

Guan Ning's heart was cold, and he was a little bitter for a while, it was not that Guan Ning loved fame and fortune, but as a subordinate of Gongsun Yi, if he had no power or position, many times he could not do important military and political affairs, but Guan Ning was also quickly relieved, he had just taken refuge, and naturally he could not be reused.

Coupled with making such a seemingly unbelievable suggestion, perhaps in Gongsun Yi's opinion, he Guan Ning is a guy who talks about it and makes a false appearance.

Gongsun Yi bowed deeply, looked at Guan Ning with anticipation, and said, "If there is a reluctant request below, can You'an agree?" ”

"My lord, please make it clear." Guan Ning was slightly stunned, but since he had already planned to serve Gongsun Yi, the request was an order, and Guan Ning naturally would not refuse.

"Please also ask You'an to go to the land of Liaodong and serve the prince of Liaodong."

As soon as Gongsun Yi's voice fell, Guan Ning's face changed suddenly, staring at Gongsun Yi and being slightly stunned, but soon Guan Ning suddenly laughed heartily and said: "The lord's order, I don't dare to shirk it, You'an packed up and went immediately, and took care of the lord, everything must be thought twice." ”

Gongsun Yi was moved in his heart, and said apologetically: "You'an must be cautious, don't be greedy for merit, don't do anything and never move lightly, I will send a hundred elite soldiers from the guard battalion to follow You'an, take care." ”

Early in the morning of the second day, Guan Ning set off with several servants first, and a hundred elite armor soldiers personally selected by Gongsun Yi followed closely and escorted Guan Ning to Liaodong.

Gongsun Yi hid from everyone and sent him away, and Guan Ning drank goodbye, and Guan Ning, who only liked to drink tea, made an exception to drink three bowls with Gongsun Yi, and then took the carriage away.

Gongsun Yi watched Guan Ning leave from afar, and was stunned for a while, and sent Guan Ning to the account of Gongsun Du in Liaodong, which was a great adventure.

In fact, Gongsun Du and Gongsun Chan are not related, Gongsun Chan is a native of Lingzhi County, Liaoxi County, which is now Qian'an County, Hebei Province, and Gongsun Du is a native of Xiangping County, Liaodong County, that is, a native of Liaoyang City, Liaoning Province.

After listening to Guan Ning's strategic advice, Gongsun Yi had already made a decision in his heart, and began to draw nearly 5,000 elite troops from the Xiao cavalry army, and select generals with outstanding abilities.

There is a sea separation between Liaodong and Qingzhou, which also echoes each other from afar, if you can take the land of Liaodong and Qingzhou, even if you can't become the lord of Youzhou in the future, there will be a place to live, which is also Gongsun Yi's painful determination, hiding from everyone to risk sending the talents around him to the land of Liaodong.

The plan is in the people, the success is in the sky, no one knows what will happen in the future, but the only good thing is that Gongsun Yi is no longer at a loss and clueless, and after a few words with Guan Ning, Gongsun Yi suddenly opened his mouth and made up his mind.

As the Kwantung Righteous Army gradually assembles towards the sour jujube area, the prelude to the competition between the heroes is about to really begin, and the decisive battle between the Northwest Army and the Kwantung Righteous Army is about to start, and in the near future, the murderous atmosphere in front of the Tiger Prison Pass will gradually spread.

Whether it is the Kwantung Righteous Army to eliminate the riots to support the dynasty, or the Northwest Army to deter the powerful and dominate the party, even Gongsun Yi, who knows the development of history, is also at a loss, and the wheel of history is rolling in vast, and no one can predict and stop it.
