What makes Yuan Shao hesitate is naturally the problem of whether to eat the big fat meat in front of him and how to eat it, Yuan Shao's problem is that the territory he controls is suddenly much larger, but the quality of the territory has not kept up in time, and the troops have been diluted, which has a bit of a dilemma, in other words, it is a question of which is more important.

Yuan Shao's nest is in Jizhou, and the main business area is the Bohai Sea, Hejian, Plains and Leling area, and later almost completely got Han Fu's territory, Han Fu's territory was originally the essence of Jizhou, but later Zhang Jiao made a fuss and suffered some damage, but on the whole it will not be slightly worse than the eastern part of Jizhou.

The land of Zhangjiao, which was finally acquired, was relatively barren, and after a few years of operation, it could only be regarded as a process of gradual recovery.

Jizhou has been quite good in terms of population and land development, and has basically returned to the state before the Yellow Turban Uprising, especially after receiving a large number of people transferred from Taishan and other counties, the overall state of Jizhou has been quite good, not to mention that compared with Yanzhou, which is constantly in war, even compared with the Huainan region that Cao Cao focuses on running, it is not bad at all, and even exceeded.

Judging from this situation, Yuan Shao should focus on Jizhou, and then gradually control the northeast of Yanzhou, slowly develop his strength, and wait until the northeast of Yanzhou is completely digested, and then develop to the south or west is a more reasonable choice.

It's a pity that Yuan Shao, Xu You and others only saw the great opportunity in front of them, and swallowed Dongjun and Jiyin in one bite at a very low cost, and even Chen Liu had it at their fingertips. Then, there was the tempting Si Li, so Yuan Shao was lured by these interests to continue to move westward. The territory is getting bigger and bigger, but the potential problems are getting more and more serious, and the crisis of hollowing out is already beginning to appear.

Xu You undoubtedly lacked that kind of calm and far-reaching gaze, and he was not soberly aware that the battle between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao and Liu Bei was ultimately not about who had a bigger territory, who had more soldiers and horses, and who had stronger generals. It is to see who has more war potential, who has a larger population, and who has a stronger production capacity. Xu Yu thinks one-sidedly. As long as they are not militarily harmonized to the shogunate, they are not in the military situation, and they are not in the military situation. p> And Xu You's idea is very common here in Yuan Shao, and it has almost become the main strategic idea of Yuan Shao's staff. Even if a calm thought occasionally pops into this, it will be quickly annihilated, and the reason for this is probably because constant wars and expanding territory are beneficial to everyone.

The war brought feats and plunder to the soldiers of the military system, and the war brought more land, more working population, and more powerful family influence to the clan, so Yuan Shao's power went up and down. Already addicted to war, perhaps from an objective point of view. Yuan Shao's problems can be seen at a glance, and many players will laugh at Yuan Shao's stupidity, but in it, Yuan Shao is coerced by his subordinates, and it is impossible to clearly see his fundamental problems.

Therefore, at the meeting convened by Yuan Shao, the focus of the discussion has always been on how to eat the subordinates, rather than how to stabilize and make up for the problem of eastern Yanzhou, which is now a small document.

"At the beginning, the problem of Si Li is that there is a group of hungry wolves watching this Si Li around Si Li, whoever has Si Li alone will face the situation that Liu Bei needs to face today, Si Li is like a huge trap to some extent, and Liu Bei is obviously not the only one who falls into this trap."

Basically, no one will object to Xu You's words, because the facts have illustrated this problem more than once.

"In my far-sighted view, how can we avoid this problem?"

"It's not difficult, defeat Cao Cao first, and when you look back at Si Li, it's not a big problem."

"Ugh"

Defeat Cao Cao first?! This premise is really light, but unfortunately, how can Cao Cao be defeated as simple as touching the upper and lower mouths?

Everyone in the hall looked at Xu You with contempt, and Xu You twisted his goatee and smiled confidently without realizing it.

"What does Lord Xu mean is that now is not the time to become the head of the division? Could it be that we just watched Cao Cao swallow Si Li, otherwise, we would take down Chen Liu first, and then confront Liu Bei? ”

Yuan Shao also felt the same way about the questions and thoughts that he didn't understand, and nodded unconsciously, he also wanted to know how Xu You looked at this question.

"Yes! Now is by no means the best time to become the head of the division, pay attention, what I am talking about is to become the head of the division, everything I just said, the premise is 'Jiu ィ  魑 change aunt swing Xing Zhu Zhu Jun ? p> At this time, everyone suddenly realized that Xu Yu still had this mystery hidden in his words!

It turns out that the key lies in exclusivity and carving up!

Yuan Shao's eyebrows raised, and his thinking suddenly broadened a lot, if the division was divided and divided, it could indeed solve the embarrassing situation of being watched by a group of heroes from all sides after joining the division, and after dividing the division, each force would have its own gains, and it would be easier to be satisfied with the status quo, so as to avoid continuing to fight for the division.

In fact, now Si Li is indeed divided, Hedong and Hongnong are now in the hands of Sima Fang, Hanoi is in the hands of Gongsun Zhan, and it is estimated that the southern part of Yin in Henan will be occupied by Cao Cao in the future.

If he could not afford to conflict with Cao Cao, he would only want to occupy Chenliu, Dongjun, and the northern part of Yin in Henan, and then further plot against Hanoi, or in turn join forces with Liu Bei to deal with Cao Cao, which should be a preferable strategy.

Xu You glanced at everyone, looked at Yuan Shao proudly, and continued unhurriedly: "Therefore, as long as our army does not make trouble, we will not be making ≠trouble, and as long as we do not make trouble, we will not be able to make trouble, and we will continue to say unhurriedly. padding: 10px; ">

Yuan Shao smiled and stroked his beard and nodded, although the ministers still had some discussions, but they all belonged to the details, in the general direction. Everyone agreed with Xu You's opinion

Miyun General Staff, the staff members in Miyun today are basically all here, speaking of which. The Miyun Staff Headquarters is definitely a place where celebrities and celebrities gather.

Tian Feng, Li Ru, Jia Xu, Kuai Liang and Cheng Gongying, as well as the new young people Tian Zhi and Xiangxiang, this meeting is a meeting to comprehensively assess the situation in the Central Plains, so everyone who can come is here.

Tian Zhi took the place of her father, and used her crisp voice to introduce the information of the parties in the Central Plains in detail, so that everyone had a clear understanding of the situation of the parties in the Central Plains.

Waiting for Tian Zhi to sit down, he took a big sip of water from the teacup pushed by Xiangxiang. Fang Zhiwen smiled and said: "Everyone knows the current situation in the Central Plains, Zhang Liang's unexpected actions have subtly affected the situation of the entire Central Plains. The so-called man is not as good as heaven, and man still can't be guided by reason alone. ”

"Hehe, does the lord mean that Zhang Liang Xijin is a little irrational? The subordinates didn't think that the timing of westward expansion at this time might not be the best. But it's not the worst either. The key is that Zhang Liang has been holding back for a long time, and many realities may also force him to choose. ”

Jia Xu smiled and put forward different opinions, and after hearing this, some people nodded, and some people shook their heads.

Li Ru said: "Otherwise, the lord is right, Zhang Liang is irrational, he is probably burned by the mood of wanting to be the emperor." As Wen and you said, not the best time. So why not wait a little, when Liu Biao and Liu Yan fight, Hanzhong will definitely be at your fingertips1

Uncle Li was right1 Xiangxiang saw that Li Ru was supporting his brother, and immediately jumped out to support, Li Ru grinned, and everyone laughed.

Fang Zhiwen also smiled and winked at Xiangxiang, then waved his hand and said: "This question is a matter of opinion, don't talk about it, the key is that the situation has begun to change, and it is getting faster and faster, the war in the Central Plains is likely to end soon, which is not in line with our interests1."

Kuai Liang nodded: "What the lord said is very true, Liu Bei has begun to retreat the army and civilians, from the direction of his withdrawal, it seems that even Si Li is also abandoning, if Liu Bei takes the initiative to give up Si Li, in order to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past, Si Li is estimated to be divided by several families, and finally form a temporary peace and quiet confrontation stage, and the war will be terminated 1

"Yes, the cessation of the war is not good for me, but this is only a short-term situation, the truce is just a rest, and the fundamental contradiction has not been resolved, so it is certain that the war will be rekindled soon, so the lord does not have to worry, with this time, it is just right for us to readjust the deployment, and the Central Plains will definitely have to fight in the future."

"Wen He is right, after the division of Si Li, the contradictions of the four giants of the Central Plains are still there, and there is no possibility of reconciliation between them, so it is only a matter of time before the war resumes, for us, the battle of the Central Plains is a great opportunity to sell war materials and buy exile captives, but this is not all of Youzhou, and compared to the Yingzhou battlefield and the otherworldly battlefield, the Central Plains battlefield has the least impact on Youzhou's industry, and the lord does not have to worry."

Fang Zhiwen blinked and said, "I'm not worried, I just feel that I have made less money, hehe1."

"Haha"

Everyone laughed easily, the atmosphere in the room suddenly relaxed, and after laughing for a while, Tian Zhi suddenly said with some unconfidence: "Lord, what if Zhang Liang's actions were premeditated?" ”

"Huh? Premeditated, Tian Zhi said that there was someone behind Zhang Liang's push, and the purpose was to end the war in the Central Plains? ”

"Right?"

Tian Zhi's words made everyone ponder, these smart people used their brains together, and the scene was very interesting.

Cao Cao 1 Cheng Gongying said first.

Li Ru nodded: "The principle of benefit, the one who gets the biggest benefit here is Cao Cao 1."

Jia Xu and Tian Feng looked at each other, they both shook their heads gently, Fang Zhiwen didn't say anything, Kuai Liang thought for a while and said: "It may not be Cao Cao, Zhang Liang's military advisor is the alien Jiang Yong, there may be other accidents here." ”

"Makes sense1 Li Ru nodded.

Everyone was silent for a while, and Tian Feng smiled: "In fact, the biggest benefit among them is not Cao Cao, but Liu Bei1."

Xiangxiang's brows immediately furrowed, this Liu Bei was forced to give up Yingchuan, and even the entire Si Li, it was obviously a big loss, how could it be a benefit? Uncle Tian Feng is not confused! Xiangxiang glanced at Tian Feng with some concern, and then looked at Tian Zhi, but found that Tian Zhi's eyes were burning, and he turned out to be suddenly and excited.

Could it be that Tian Feng really said something wrong? To be continued...
