After being appointed by Cao Cao, Xun rushed to Yecheng day and night.

There was nothing to say all the way, and as soon as he arrived in Yecheng, he immediately felt a tense atmosphere of mountain rain coming.

The city tower is full of sentinels, and the swords are tense, as if facing a great enemy; The city gate is also heavily guarded, and the inventory is extremely strict; Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were stationed outside the city, and the military camp stretched out and the flags were like the sea, which was quite intimidating.

"It is rumored that General Yuan killed General Gongsun's younger brother, and the soldiers and horses of Youzhou are about to go south, but now it seems that the rumors are indeed true."

The main commander who escorted Xun's envoy was Li Dian, who had never seen such a big scene, and he was also depressed for a while. Thinking of the upcoming war in the north, he was even more emotional.

With the rise of Wang Yu's fame, the reputation of Youzhou White Horse Yicong has also been famous all over the world, and in several major battles, the power of light cavalry has been displayed. The princes of all walks of life were worried about this, some people tried to study the way to crack it, and some people planned to follow suit and form a light cavalry to fight it, and the lord Cao Cao was both.

Of course, raising cavalry is more expensive, and Cao Cao's already embarrassing economic situation is even worse at the moment. But in line with the principle of sooner rather than later, he still squeezed out some resources from between his teeth to form a cavalry team.

At first, it was just a light cavalry, and after getting Bao Xin's battle report, the heavy cavalry was also included in the agenda, thinking of this, Li Dian couldn't help but sigh. The Lord's vision and execution are extraordinary, but the times are not good, what can I do about it?

Wang Yu's achievements are still his own efforts, look at Yuan Shao, with his family background, there are people waiting for him, and he will give up the richest state of the Han Dynasty.

In this process, how much has Yuan Shao's strength swelled? Just look at the soldiers and horses gathered in Yecheng.

Through the flag.

The number does not seem to be more than Cao Cao's Yanzhou army, but the Jizhou army is a real soldier. Except for a small number of elites, the Yanzhou army can only find some self-esteem in front of the Montenegrin army.

Just by being well equipped, it is not possible to make a definitive conclusion on the combat strength, but the military camp outside the city is strictly guarded and has a very legal degree, and the sergeants who enter and leave are even more prohibited, and the company camp of 30,000 troops. There is very little noise, and it looks like it is elite.

If you don't consider the strategy of the soldiers, and pull the soldiers of both sides out to fight, as long as the Jizhou side sends 10,000 or even 8,000, it is enough to beat the entire army of Yanzhou to the ground.

This is the strength of the largest state in the Han Dynasty, and it is also the capital of Yuan Shao who dares to confront Gongsun Zhan.

"Rumors are rumors, the results are not bad with each other, but the process may not be exhaustive, Man Cheng, you don't really think that General Yuan was forced to resist, right?" listened to Li Dian's exclamation. Xun just smiled slightly.

"Dian Yulu, please Mr. Wenruo for advice." Li Dian looked left and right. Seeing that no one was paying attention, he humbly asked for advice.

"General Yuan's process of entering Jizhou was very smooth, and there was no large-scale war, and the soldiers and horses outside the city were gathered later. The change in Yuzhou only happened a month ago, Zhou Ang was beaten by Sun Wentai before and could only shrink, if it wasn't for Jizhou's reinforcements, where would he have the ability to counterattack? ”

Xun admired this young man very much. I think that the other party will become a capable person in the army, so I am very patient to point out the tricks for the other party.

"What does Mr. Wen Ruo mean......" Li Dian groaned slightly, and said in surprise: "After General Yuan entered Jizhou. Ready to send troops as soon as possible? The goal is Youzhou? No, he gathered troops and horses in Yecheng, it seems to be a little far away, isn't it ......?"

"Yes, it's Qingzhou." Xun smiled and nodded.

"Qingzhou? Isn't he afraid of being copied by General Gongsun? "Li Dian is surprised.

"Exactly how is it not yet known, but one thing is certain." Xun Twist said with a smile: "General Yuan prefers to take shortcuts rather than confrontation head-on. He probably also had some hidden hands in Qingzhou, so he thought that there was a gap in Qingzhou, as long as he found a way to contain General Gongsun. ”

Looking at Xun Ruo's meaningful smile, Li Dian's heart suddenly moved: "Mr. Wenruo, you said to the lord that if you are sure to persuade General Yuan, it is ......"

"The children can be taught."

Xun stroked his palms and smiled, looked at Li Dian with satisfaction, and explained in a low voice: "Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is the only way to have a target, General Yuan's eye is a nail in Yuzhou, so after he entered Jizhou, he immediately dispatched troops to reinforce Zhou Ang; Second only to Yuan Highway is Qingzhou, so Xu Ziyuan didn't even catch up with such a grand event as entering Jizhou. ”

"General Gongsun is also a threat to General Yuan, but that's it, he is now contained, whether it is Qingzhou or Yuzhou, it is difficult to take care of it, but he is concerned about this. Therefore, as long as we show enough sincerity and use value, he will not care too much. ”

While speaking, the car had arrived at the city gate, and the two were silent, and Li Dian came forward to negotiate with the gate guard for a while, and then they were able to pass.

Looking back at the nervous look of the captain guarding the door, Xun smiled leisurely and said: "As I expected, at this moment, General Yuan's shogunate should be very lively." ”

……

The meeting hall of the Yecheng Thorn Mansion was indeed very lively, and Xun's arrival added fuel to the fire, and the quarrel became more intense.

[The First Strong Soldier of the Three Kingdoms・.81zw・81 Chinese Net]

The reason for the quarrel was similar to Xun's inference, after Yuan Shao's strength soared, he did not choose to recuperate like Wang Yu, but to expand and destroy the enemy.

In this regard, the strategists have reached an agreement, Jizhou and Qingzhou are different, they have not experienced so much damage, with the support of wealthy families from all over the world, and now Jizhou is the strongest stage, and it is a missed opportunity not to expand.

However, everyone has their own opinions on the direction of expansion.

In line with the principle that the outside must first be at home, Guo Tu, Feng Ji and others advocated going south, taking advantage of Wang Yu's lack of time to look around, first destroy the Black Mountain thieves who were exhausted by the battle with Cao Cao, and then attack Yingchuan and Runan, and attack Liu Biao back and forth, solve the biggest enemy Yuan Shu, and reintegrate Yuan Valve.

Xu Yu never forgot Wang Yu, he advocated not giving Wang Yu a chance to recuperate, and attacked Qingzhou with all his might, even if he couldn't solve Wang Yu in one fell swoop, he had to create enough trouble for him.

The locals in Jizhou advocated that Gongsun Zan should be dealt with first, and only then could they take action against other places.

He believed that it was difficult for the Jizhou army to defeat the Youzhou army in the front, and it was not wise for the labor division to go on an expedition, so he maintained a strategic defensive position in other directions, confronted other princes with national strength, and at the same time used part of his forces to conquer the state.

Each of these strategies has its own merits, and each has its own advantages and disadvantages. Yuan Shao is not a very decisive person, and the situation is so frozen. As soon as Xun arrived, the situation was even more chaotic.

"I've never heard of a long-distance close attack, how can I ignore the enemy under my nose and attack Yuzhou from afar? Since Cao Mengde sent an envoy here, it was obvious that he was here to express his surrender, and he only had to drive the wolf and devour the tiger, and he was restrained by Liu Biao. and General Zhou's cooperation, are you still afraid that you won't be able to solve the problem of Yuan Shu? ”

"Is Cao Mengde a good match? If there is no way to contain him, how can the lord control him when he develops wings in the future? Or let Cao Mengde disturb the situation in Yanzhou, and take Youzhou as the best policy first. As long as Yuan Shu can't capture Xiangyang, what can he do? ”

"How can the Youzhou Light Cavalry be so easy to deal with? Wang Yu has only more than 1,000 horsemen in his hands, and he is already unguardable, although my Jizhou soldiers and horses also have cavalry, but the theme is still based on infantry. Go to Youzhou to fight Gongsun Zhan, you can figure it out! ”

"Qingzhou! Qingzhou is the point! Gongsun Chan is just a reckless man. There is also Liu Yuanjun to contain him, and when there is news from the north, are you still afraid that he will be arrested if he is not restrained? And let him be for a while. Wang Pengju is the biggest threat, Tuntian is a strong soldier, he opened a museum to recruit talents, this is contempt for the scholars, contempt for the rules of the imperial court! If he bewitches people's hearts. Who can guarantee that he is not the second Wang Mang? ”

"Guys, guys, please calm down. As the old saying goes: make good use of soldiers. You must first seek for yourself and then for others, first for the invincible and then for victory. Regardless of Qingzhou's troubles, only Jiao ブ荩 disease emperor embedded in Ben Qi Zi Yun ∈ Mu Yun Zheng Locust Manhot ∈ tired b 诓苤 Wu Yan disease (18) 獩 bloody wanton 濪 lawsuit bean ブ!?

Everyone shouted red-faced, but they just argued, and finally bowed their hands to Yuan Shao, and said abruptly: "Please make a clear decision." ”

Yuan Shao's face was gloomy, covering his forehead, trying to press down the restless green tendons in the corners of his forehead.

got Jizhou, his strength has jumped to the top of the princes, I thought that when I ascended the heights, the tiger's body was shocked, and I could make the surrounding princes bow their heads, but the result was smoke everywhere.

Cao Cao is not useful, but his heart is quite high, and it is so troublesome for him to hand over hostages; Liu Dai at both ends of the rat's head; Gongsun Chan, who does not eat soft and hard; the babbling Yuan Shu; and the most annoying Wang Yu.

These people don't have a good thing, but they can't say that they can clean up whoever they want, they will clean up whoever they want, which is really annoying.

Thinking of this, he glanced at Xu Yu fiercely, if it weren't for this guy running back halfway in order to compete for merit, the situation in Qingzhou might not be a thousand miles away, if it weren't for the old feelings, he should really be given ......

"Forget it, please Wen Ruo come in and listen to what he has to say."

Xun soon appeared in the chamber, ignoring the sharp gazes of the strategists, he calmly saluted Yuan Shao, and then went straight to the point.

“…… What General Cao meant was that as long as the general provided assistance to help our army quickly defeat the Black Mountain bandits, then, after stabilizing the eastern county, our army would move south and attack Yuzhou with General Zhou, and all the counties under the attack belonged to General Zhou. In addition, General Cao knew that Yecheng was full of heroes, so he was willing to send his young son Pi to Yecheng to ask for benefits from the monarchs, I don't know what General Yuan wanted? ”

Xun's conditions were tailor-made for Yuan Shao, and the latter certainly couldn't refuse such a temptation. Borrowing strength is the way that Yuan Shao appreciates the most, using Cao Cao's power to weaken Yuan Shu and attack Yuzhou for himself, how could he refuse?

"I have been friends with Meng De for many years, Meng De is in trouble, so naturally I can't help but help, YV ......"

"The last general!"

"Take your subordinates, return to Dongjun with Wen Ruo, and break through the Black Mountain together, remember, you must play a majestic role, so as not to let the people of the world underestimate my Jizhou."

"Whoa!"

Xun recognized that the person who responded to the order was the famous general Zhang Jaw of Hejian, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, with this person making a move, the difficulties that came from the battle of Qingzhou were always surviving.
