Yuan Shao successfully captured Jiyang, Liu Xun was not caught by Yuan Shao, when the city was broken, Liu Xun led the troops to break through, Liu Xun disappeared in the chaos, maybe he was hung up, but there was no report from the troops afterwards, maybe he was killed by a stranger but did not report.

Jiyang's change of hands was expected by Zhuge Jin, and it did not have much impact on Chen Liu's overall situation, Zhuge Jin's original plan was to block Yuan Shao on the front line of Kaifeng and Chen Liu, like Changyuan, Jiyin, and even sour dates and Yongqiu were scheduled to be given up, but Liu Xun was a little unbearable, and Jiyang didn't even block it for a day, and his face was a little ugly.

Even if Liu Xun is not hanged, it is estimated that he will be punished when he goes back.

Yuan Shao's attack on Jiyang was killing two birds with one stone, and he originally wanted to induce the Iron Army to dispatch, so as to destroy the mobile troops of the Iron Army, only by defeating the living force of the Iron Army, Yanxian and Baima would be easier to take.

However, the Iron Army is not a rookie who doesn't understand anything, and can naturally see Yuan Shao's sinister intentions, so for Yuan Shao's southward attack on Jiyang, the Iron Army completely stood by and watched, and did not try to rescue at all, on the contrary, according to the intelligence of Zhang Jaw and Yiren, the Iron Army is stepping up the construction of the defense facilities of Yan County, and desperately repairing the defense facilities of Baima, and through the Yellow River channel, a large number of materials were purchased, preparing to carry out a protracted struggle with Yuan Shao in Baima City and Yan County.

Yuan Shao saw that the iron army had made up his mind to be a shrinking turtle, so he had no choice but to put the target of the attack in the direction of Chenliu, but he was not in a hurry to attack big cities like Chenliu and Kaifeng, but first attacked in the direction of sour jujube, clearing the perimeter and preparing for the siege of Kaifeng.

Looking at the direction of Yingchuan again, the war between Cao Cao and Liu Bei has been going on for more than half a year, the two sides are in full swing, and for the time being, they have their own gains and losses, Cao Cao barely has a slight advantage on the frontal battlefield, but on the second front, that is, the infiltration attack and disturbance war launched by the two sides against each other. Cao Cao is obviously at a loss.

This is not only because the enemies involved in the attack and containment are fierce people like Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, but also because there are a large number of alien support, which makes Cao Cao, who lacks the support of aliens, very painful, in the direction of Chen County and Runan, Cao Cao can only shrink in the city and hold on, Chen Liunan is also quite passive, although Xiahou Yuan restrained Zhang Fei. But the aliens were unusually active, making Cao Cao's logistics line seem very unstable.

This is also an important reason why Xuchang has been unable to take it for a long time, Cao Cao always has to reserve supplies for a period of time before launching a large-scale attack, and other times it is grinding on the periphery, of course. Xuchang itself is a first-class city is also an important factor, and attacking a first-class city is really not a simple task.

Liu Bei is barely satisfied with the current situation, but Pang Yuan in Xuchang City has another opinion, Cao Cao stared at Yingchuan because Yingchuan was important, but there was no need to surround Xuchang to fight a tough battle, he could also choose to attack Yingyang and Yangzhai and attack Liu Bei's logistics channel from the rear. This kind of efficiency is obviously more efficient and flexible than fighting around Xuchang.

There must be a reason why Cao Cao chose this, and as for what the reason was, everyone soon knew.

In April of the 11th year of Guangxi, Gongsun Chan personally led the army, with Guan Jing and Dong Zhao as military advisors, leading Yan Gang and Wangmen with a total of 100,000 troops. Wave your army south to raid the wild king.

Yewang City is now the player's territory, these guilds are far less powerful than the super-large guilds in the south, Yewang is a joint-stock city, including the army is also a coalition situation, in the face of the menacing Gongsun Zhan, players are entangled.

"Everyone, everyone. Don't quarrel, in the final analysis, it's just a matter of peace and war, if you can get through it. Naturally, you can get greater benefits by fighting, but what if you can't beat it? Isn't it in vain to quarrel here now about how to fight1

"So you mean surrendered?"

"It's a bit embarrassing, it's a little too shy to say it.1

"That's it, I don't dare to fight, what kind of game is this, just change my career to play life and career.1

"That's nice, but the question is now that Gongsun Zhan's 100,000-strong army is coming, are we capable of defeating them? There are also those players who merge with the state to support Gongsun Chan behind him, and the combat power is very different, we debated for a long time just now, but is there any good way to win? If there is, there is no need to quarrel just now1

"Ugh"

The noisy conference room gradually quieted down, many things are like this, people have more ideas, often things will develop in an inexplicable direction, and even put the cart before the horse, and now someone finally said the point, this group of fierce arguments about the details or digressions of the guy finally calmed down.

"Everyone, I still have the opinion just now, we can't win, so the choice is a rule, just now some people said that this is faceless, it is better to be a life professional player? Bullshit, what I'm trying to say is, if we weren't a battle-type guild, could it have been possible to occupy cities such as the Wild King for so long and get so many benefits? But you need to figure out what our goal and purpose are in the fight. ”

"What is it? Isn't it just going to war? Isn't it just to defeat the opponent and protect your own interests? ”

"Yes, but what about the object? Can we participate in the struggle for hegemony now? This is obviously a false proposition, our current ability is to bully the guilds that are worse than us, attack the bandits and bandits, and occupy the city to obtain benefits, remember, the ultimate goal is to obtain benefits and strengthen ourselves! In this case, in the face of an enemy that we cannot defeat, is it not the right choice to choose to switch sides, on the premise of sacrificing some of our interests, and keeping most of our interests from being damaged? ”

"It's a quibble1

"I think he is right, only by protecting our interests and reducing our losses, can we gradually grow, maybe we can grow into a super guild, and have the opportunity to become a hegemon."

"Makes sense1

"That's right, we have no reason to work hard for Liu Bei, and he has nothing to gain us, but he is just an empty official position, which requires us to exchange taxes for it, what is wrong with changing the direction of paying taxes, the key is that we paid taxes Liu Bei did not protect our interests 1

"Well, it's a powerful and shameless reason.1

"Huh."

The players of Wild King City chose to surrender very realistically, surrendering can also protect their interests in the city, although they have to pay more taxes, but it is better than being completely swept out of the house after being broken.

Gongsun Chan took the wild king lightly, which made Gongsun Chan feel very happy, and the wild king was like blocking the gate of Shangdang County, and if he took this gate, Hanoi County and even the Central Plains were open to Gongsun Zhan.

"Lord, the wild king is under the throne, our army should quickly take Heyang and Huai County, with these two cities as the peripheral fulcrum, in order to stand firm in Hanoi County and further spy on Henan."

Guan Jing's strategy is decent, in terms of strategy, the decent is often the best, the more to this level, the more necessary to be strategically and tactically steady and easy to implement, and taking risks is the act of putting the cart before the horse.

Gongsun Chan stroked his beard and nodded, as he grew older, Gongsun Chan became more and more calm and sophisticated, he was not in a hurry to express his position, he glanced at the generals, and Gongsun Chan stopped his gaze on Dong Zhao's face.

"Gongren, what advice do you have?"

"My lord, my subordinates think that what Shi Qi said is extremely true, now that Hanoi is empty, our army should take the opportunity to quickly take Hanoi and fortify at various key points, of course, there should also be some focus here, and the focus should be on the east."

Guan Jing nodded: "That's right, since we agreed to Yuan Shao's joint attack on the Iron Army, we should naturally express something, but in fact, our Huangfu Song in the west is not enough to worry about, and Liu Bei in the south is too busy to take care of himself, and only the Iron Army is our current fierce enemy." ”

Dong Zhao tugged at the corners of his mouth, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, and Gongsun Zhan's eyes swept away, taking Dong Zhao's expression into his eyes.

"Why does Shiqi think that the Iron Army is the current enemy of our army? In fact, the Tiejun is competing with Yuan Shao in Henan, so he should be too busy to take care of himself, right? Where will they take the initiative to start a war with me, I think that they will come to peace.1

Gongsun Chan euphemistically questioned Guan Jing's statement, Guan Jing smiled indifferently, and said unhurriedly: "It is because the Iron Army is under heavy pressure from Yuan Shao in Henan that it is more likely to become a big disaster for our army." Now that Yuan Shao's heavy troops are going south, in Baima, only Zhang Jaw is containing, but in fact, there is no pressure at all. And our army is going south at this time, even if we say that we have no intention of destroying the Iron Army, will the Iron Army believe it? Therefore, when there is no pressure on the south side, will the Iron Army choose to concentrate its forces first and defeat our army first? The subordinates thought that this was very likely. ”

Gongsun Chan smiled slightly and said, "What do you think of Gongren?" ”

"The subordinates think that this is the opposite, or that we don't have to guess how the Iron Army is going to do it, but we should guide the Iron Army how to do it."

Guan Jing's eyes froze, and he glanced at Dong Zhao quite unkindly, Dong Zhao smiled and nodded, his bearing was very chic, and Gongsun Zhan smiled secretly.

"Gongren said it nicely, is it really that easy to manipulate and guide the idea of guiding the Iron Army? I also know that Yuan Shao is our great enemy sooner or later, and this time will not be very far away, if this Central Plains War ends smoothly, Yuan Shao will take advantage of the power of a big victory, and the idea of annexing and annexing states will definitely arise. So now, if we can guide the Iron Army to fight with Yuan Shaoqiang, our army will be able to double the benefits, but Yuan Shao and the Iron Army are not fools, how can they let us be this fisherman? Gongren thought too simply1

"Shiqi has also thought of this, which shows that the next idea is correct, not only can we not help Yuan Shao now, on the contrary, we should help the Tie Jun, of course, this can only be secretly helped, while helping the Tie Jun, we take Hanoi as a reward. Of course, this is just an assumption, as for the idea of the Iron Army, in fact, it is not difficult to guess, as long as we take this as a condition, presumably the Iron Army will also understand that cooperating with us is far better than confrontation. ”

Guan Jing was stunned, Dong Zhao's words had a deep meaning! What did you overlook? To be continued...
