Shencheng.

A huge mansion with a Jia character written on it.

It is no longer known whose mansion it used to be, but it is known that by the time the army entered the city, it was already without an owner. In addition, it covers a wide area, so Jia Nian took this place as his temporary residence.

Sitting on the main seat in the lobby, his eyes looked around at the generals, and finally fell on Liu Ye, who was talking about many things.

"Although Shencheng was captured five days ago, due to food supplies and replenishment of soldiers, we were dragged here."

"Now is the time for a big attack"

"It's just that Lei Bo, the general under the command of the pseudo-dragon Yuan Yuzhou, led an army of 30,000 to garrison Ruyin, and how to attack still needs to be thought about."

Liu Ye said to Jia Nian and the generals.

Yuzhou was the stronghold of the Yuan clan, and the difficulty of governance exceeded that of Yangzhou and Guangling County. I thought that on the day I captured Shencheng, I could send troops to chase and kill Lei Bo's troops. But he didn't want a sudden fire in the city, and a group of private soldiers from wealthy families rushed into the granary. Even if there was a timely response, half of the grain was consumed by the fire. Fortunately, not all the grain was brought here, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable.

However, this incident also sounded a wake-up call for myself, this is Yuzhou, and I can't take the idea of attacking Yangzhou and Guangling to the present. Otherwise, things like the burning of grain by local wealthy families will happen one after another.

"I wonder what the military advisor thinks about attacking Yuzhou?"

"Division of Troops"

Liu Yu replied.

Gan Ning, who was standing on the side, frowned.

"Why divide the troops? Wouldn't it be better for our army to gather in one place? ”

"The Lord"

"The last general is willing to ask for battle, lead the soldiers and horses of the headquarters as the vanguard, and go straight to the city of Runan"

The words fell in his ears, and Gan Ning said loudly to Jia Nian.

Jia Nian hesitated slightly, seriously thinking about the current situation in his mind, and finally remained silent, although it seems that there are many soldiers and horses in Yuzhou, and they are integrated with the local wealthy families, which can be described as unparalleled.

But if you analyze it carefully, in the face of a strong enemy from three sides, it has reached the verge of destruction. It seems that there are many soldiers and horses, but they are forced to fight on three fronts. As a result, we had to divide our forces to meet the enemy, and some of our shortcomings were revealed one by one.

For example, most of them are new soldiers, otherwise Shencheng would not have been defeated by himself, and it must be known that there are 30,000 soldiers and horses stationed there.

"Never"

"Lei Bo is not incompetent, if it weren't for the fact that most of the soldiers in his hands are recruits, I'm afraid we will need to go through a lot of trouble here, and Ruyin City is high and deep, it is a rare big city in Yuzhou, and the complete defense facilities are not comparable to Shencheng."

"Besides, our goal of waiting for Liwei has been achieved, and it is probably not worth wasting troops to attack at this moment."

Liu Ye said.

Jia Nian suddenly understood.

He now belongs to the Yuan Shao Alliance, and Yangzhou is not the only one attacking Yuzhou. If the demon clan kills too hard, once Yuan Shu is defeated, the loss of Yuzhou will become a foregone conclusion. There will inevitably be some small friction between the three parties, and I am afraid that they will be kicked out of the game if they don't wait to grab the territory.

"What does the military advisor mean by standing still?"

"Exactly"

Liu Ye said to Jia Nian.

The generals in the room were in an uproar, and Fang Cai's desire to fight immediately calmed down and began to fall into their own thoughts. What is the purpose of this battle? Capture Yuzhou? Only with the strength of the Yangzhou Demon Clan, I want to monopolize Yuzhou, judging from the current situation, I am afraid it is too arrogant.

Countless thoughts wandered through his mind, and the generals fell silent. This sentence is not authentic, but it is in the interests of Yangzhou, so this is the most advantageous choice.

"Don't forget, my lord, who is more interested in attacking Yuzhou in this war?"

"You mean the demon lord Cao Chongzhou?"

Jia Nian asked.

Liu Ye nodded at Jia Nian.

"Exactly"

"Although we have formed an alliance, judging from the current situation, the alliance led by the demon dragon Yuan Shu is greater than ours. In the face of Yang, Jing and Chong, the three states can attack together, and they can also face each other on three sides. That's enough to prove their strength."

"But on the other hand, looking at the strength of the Yuan Shao Alliance, the north is in danger, and the situation is even worse than that of Yuzhou."

Therefore, if you want to solve the crisis, you can only capture Yuzhou. Cut off the general trend of the Yuan Shu Alliance, and then they can be broken individually. Devouring the Quartet one by one, turning the corner into safety"

Liu Ye said to Jia Nian.

After a slight pause in the voice, he continued.

"Although the alliance leader Yuan Shao's strength is not weak, it will be difficult to parry in the face of two-sided or even three-sided attacks. Then the only thing that can be counted on is the demon lord Cao Chongzhou who is close at hand."

"I Yangzhou and Jingzhou can work but not contribute, but the demon clan can't, if it is expected to be good, at this time Chongzhou has launched a huge attack on Yuzhou"

"Why don't I wait and see what happens, and then send out troops?"

Liu Ye asked Jia Nian.

The generals pondered, and then looked at each other. The words of the military advisor are the words of the country, and they are in line with what the Yangzhou demon clan should do in this battle. A tough battle should have been fought by the alliance leader Yuan Jizhou and the demon lord Cao Chongzhou rushing ahead, as for Jing, Yang and Jiao, the soldiers and horses of the three states walked slowly to exert pressure.

Jia Nian tapped his fingers lightly on the desk, gradually falling into deep thought.

"The words of the military advisor are reasonable"

"It's just that in the past, the heroes would attack the Tiger Prison Pass, but they stagnated in front of the pass. Now that the situation has changed, should we learn from the heroes of that time and sit back and watch the burning of Luoyang again? ”

The sound fell in my ears.

Liu Ye gradually frowned.

"The lord is worried that the pseudo-dragon Yuan Shu will burn down Runan City? Homeopathic evacuation of Runan County"

"Everything is foreseen, and if it is not prepared, it will be wasted, and it is better for us to plan earlier"

Jia Nian said thoughtfully.

Although Yuan Shu may not necessarily do such a thing, it is not in the interests of himself and Yangzhou to sit back and watch the Yuan Shu Alliance sweep Cao Cao and Yuan Shao in the north.

After all, the Yuan Shu Alliance is powerful, and this person's heart to get involved in Yangzhou is clearly revealed, if he is allowed to completely grasp the general trend, it will not be peaceful at that time.

I finally got to this point, and I have the strength to influence the general trend and save my life. How could the danger of life and death hit from all directions again.

"What do you mean?"

"Just like what the military advisor said, now is the time for a big attack."

Jia Nian said loudly to Liu Ye and the generals.

As the lord of Yangzhou and the emperor of the demon clan, the places he sees are farther away than ordinary people. Liu Ye is just a strategist, he can give one or even several choices, but in the end, only he can decide.
