Although there are a lot of various materials collected in Chenliu County, Yang Rui still feels a little sorry for its status as Cao Cao's nest, a county town only has a balance of more than 20 thousand gold coins, and other things such as grain and grass are not much, and it costs a lot to think that Cao Cao has been churning around recently.

As for Guo Jia's suggestion of whether to see Wei Zi last time, Yang Rui put it on hold for the time being after thinking about it, and at this time Yang Rui really didn't think about how to treat Wei Zi, Wei Zi supported Cao Cao well, but she was also Wei Xiu'er's father.

In fact, Yang Rui can also understand that although the Wei family chooses to support and rely on Cao Cao, it is also reasonable for a big businessman, and many businessmen in the troubled times have chosen one side of the force as their support.

Moreover, the Wei family has never interrupted its cooperation with Yang Rui after supporting Cao Cao, and at the same time, it involves Wei Xiuer's identity, and Yang Rui always feels bad and too harsh.

However, since Wei Zi fell into the hands of Yang Rui due to the fall of Chenliu County, Yang Rui naturally could not let the Wei family have anything to do with Cao Cao.

"System announcement: Chen Gong, a native of Dongwuyang, Dongjun, admires the ability of Hanoi Taishou Lu Bu, and goes to the state where Lu Bu is located, and will soon be stationed under the tent of Hanoi Taishou Lu Bu."

"System announcement: Due to Yuan Shao's repeated provocations, Zhang Miao and Cao Cao had a gap, and Zhang Miao's commander defected to Lu Bu's state from his younger brother Zhang Chao, engaged in Zhonglang Xu Yan, and Wang Kai, and from then on will be dependent on Lu Bu's Taishou ......forces."

Not long after Yang Rui left Chenliu County, two system announcements sounded one after another, which was still about the NPC plot of "Choosing Trees and Living", after the first wave of historical generals/historical celebrities voted for their masters. The plot is far from over.

Due to the rise of Yang Rui's power, after the situation in Yanzhou changed significantly, Chen Gong really took refuge in Lu Bu. And there seem to be a lot of historical generals and historical celebrities who voted for Lu Bu this time, and under the drive of Zhang Miao, they almost organized a group to go to Lu Bu's account.

In this way, Lu Bu's power will definitely rise a lot, but Yang Rui was slightly relieved after receiving these two system announcements.

Zhang Miao and others defected from Cao Cao and went to Lu Bu, and they were still provoked by Yuan Shao. Next, the relationship between Lu Bu and Yuan Shao and Cao Cao will definitely be affected, and he will even return to the historical trajectory of Lu Bu's sneak attack behind Cao Cao's attack on Xu.

And whether it is historical facts or romance, Chen Gong is also at odds with Cao Cao. To a large extent, this may also have been a factor in the confrontation between Lü Bu and Cao Cao.

Of course, these are Yang Rui's personal speculations after receiving the two system announcements, and it is still unknown how the game process will progress, but Chen Gong, Zhang Miao and others defected to Lu Bu It is relatively favorable news for Yang Rui. At least for a short time, it can form some constraints on Cao Cao.

Think of these. Yang Rui sped up and operated the Sky City towards Juancheng, where Cheng Yu was located, originally Yang Rui was still a little hesitant to take the opportunity to break through the remaining seven county towns of Cao Cao east of the Tiger Prison Pass, completely cutting off Cao Cao's back road.

It's just that there is not much time left before the system adjustment, and there is still a threat from Yuan Shao in the north that has not yet been dealt with, Yang Rui chose to turn north after taking the county town of Chenliu, intending to attack Yuan Shao to remove the threat of Jizhou, and at the same time aid Gongsun Zan of Youzhou.

On the way, Yang Rui naturally wanted to pass through Yanzhou to check the situation of Cheng Yu and other troops in Yanzhou. And leave some of the newly earned War-Free Tokens for emergencies.

"Meet the Lord!"

"Meet the Governor ......"

"Congratulations on the triumphant return of Lord Zhoumu!"

“……”

After Yang Rui arrived in Juancheng. Cheng Yu and Han Hao and other more than 400,000 defenders are stationed in the city, Han Hao was temporarily seconded by Cheng Yu from Pingyuan County, and only Du Yang and Fu Zhishuai were left in Pingyuan County.

At the same time, Tai Shici's trained naval army was also deployed in the border area of Qingzhou and Jizhou, and almost completely controlled the surface of the Yellow River and Jishui, but it was not afraid that Yuan Shao would have abnormal behavior.

At this time, due to the great changes in the surrounding situation, during Yang Rui's participation in the Player Exotic Tournament, after discussion by Cheng Yu, Sun Qian and others, the defenders in various places also made a lot of adjustments.

In addition to the heavy garrison of Pingyuan City, nearly 400,000 troops of Liu Ba and Wu Anguo were stationed in Puyang City, the seat of Dongjun Governance, and nearly 300,000 troops of Zhang Liao and Chen Lin were stationed in Changyi City, the headquarters of Yanzhou, and more than 400,000 troops of Cheng Yu and Han Hao of Juancheng were stationed to help each other and jointly deal with Cao Cao in the south.

It can be seen that Yang Rui's previous reminder has played a role, and Cheng Yu and others are still very cautious in dealing with Cao Cao.

"Don't be polite, on the day of my absence, fortunately, there are many soldiers to take care of the family and protect the land, and after Cao Thief is a little relieved, I will definitely reward you for your merits and deeds, and reward you for your merits......"

Yang Rui saw Cheng Yu and others for the first time after returning from the exotic space, and the words of praise were naturally indispensable, the so-called meritorious deeds and rewards, at this time, Yang Rui's territory was more than half of the territory of Yanzhou, and soon Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong were under the account, but they really needed to be reappointed and dismissed.

Cheng Yu, who is extremely good at guarding, is in Yanzhou, and at the same time, the total number of troops in Yanzhou is more than 1 million, Yang Rui's heart is suddenly reassured, at this time, even if Cao Cao's new troops will increase a lot, he will definitely not have an advantage in the overall strength.

Although Cao Cao's strength has increased dramatically today, it is still short from the last battle of Fengqiu City, and there is still a big gap between the number and strength of Cao Cao's soldiers and Yang Rui.

Taking the battle of Chenliu County as an example, Yang Rui's advantage with siege equipment such as heavy trebuchets is only one aspect, and the strength of Cao's soldiers defending the city is indeed one or two levels behind.

Rao is like this, Yang Rui still left Gao Shun and his nearly 50,000 soldiers in Juancheng to deal with the unforeseen needs, and at the same time, Yang Rui also handed over 5 Level 1 Combat Immunity Tokens and 3 Level 2 Battle Exemption Tokens to Cheng Yu, and told him to focus on defense in the near future, and wait until he comes back to make long-term plans.

With the intelligence of an NPC at the level of Cheng Yu, he can naturally understand the behavior of an alien like Yang Rui who will leave for a short time when the system is adjusted, and he also keeps in mind Yang Rui's advice.

After Juancheng left, Yang Rui went north through Changyi City, and also met with Zhang Liao, Chen Lin and other defenders, encouraged them, and left several war-free tokens, and then operated Sky City and went straight to the direction of Pingyuan County.

"System announcement: Gao Pei of Huainan County, Yangzhou admires the ability of Yizhou Mu Liu Yan, and commands 50,000 people in Xiangyong to go to Hanzhong, where Liu Yan is located, and will soon be stationed under the account of Yizhou Mu Liu Yan."

On Yang Rui's way to the plains, the plot of the "Choosing Trees and Perching" NPC is still continuing, although the frequency has decreased a lot, and even more than half a day or more before a historical general/historical celebrity is born, it still makes Yang Rui's eyes hot!
