Cao Cao is very troubled now, his greed for a while accepted the investment of the alien forces, although he saw that there was a large amount of money and food population benefits, but the ensuing troubles also gave Cao Cao a headache.

Fortunately, there was a heavy snowfall, so that Cao Cao was able to readjust his strategy a little and reluctantly prepare for the confrontation with the surrounding princes, however, after this battle is over, it is really hard to say how much of the benefits he has gained from the Inhuman forces, maybe it is just a waste of effort, and in the end he has lost his prestige in vain, which is really a mistake!

"Zhicai, what do you think of my arrangement?"

Cao Cao put down the wooden stick in his hand and looked back at Xi Zhicai on his side, the logo on the drawing was very clear, and Xi Zhicai naturally understood it very clearly, but Xi Zhicai did not answer directly.

"Lord, Zhicai is not good at military strategy, and I don't know if you ask me1

Although Xi Zhicai said this, his brows were frowning tightly, obviously he had reservations about Cao Cao's arrangement, Cao Cao could naturally see it, but he was not in a hurry, but stroked his beard and said with a smile:

"Hehe, Zhicai is too modest, but the friend Guo Jia who is good at military strategy you mentioned last time doesn't know where he has gone now?"

Xi Zhicai's eyes darkened slightly, he had received Guo Jia's letter, but he didn't tell Cao Cao about these things, saving Cao Cao from being disappointed, but now that Cao Cao asked, Xi Zhicai had no way to hide it.

"This, Feng Xiao went to Youzhou, and now he is in Miyun 1

"Huh!? Youzhou Fang Zhiwen, this guy" Cao Cao was very disappointed in his heart, and at the same time very helpless, to Zhiwen above. Cao Cao has never had the upper hand, and now that he heard that another person was poached by Fang Zhiwen, Cao Cao's heart was full of envy and jealousy, but it didn't stop there. I want to talk to Fang Zhiwen. Cao Cao still needs to work hard.

"Lord, I heard that Xun Yu has left Yecheng, perhaps, the lord should take the initiative to contact this person. In addition, I heard that Yanzhou Cheng Yu rejected Liu Dai's expedition several times, and the lord can also send someone to send a letter to invite, both of them are resourceful people, and they are good at military strategy. It can also be worried about the main centimeter. ”

Of course, Xi Zhicai said that these bigger purposes were just to divert Cao Cao's attention, so that he would always stare at Guo Jia, and thus have a grudge against himself, but Cao Cao seemed to be really serious, looking at his appearance, he seemed to be seriously thinking about how to get these two people to take him down.

"Lord Princess" Xi Zhicai called softly, after all, it was a military meeting now, and Cao Cao's distraction at this time seemed a little out of place.

"Ahh Oh. Ahem, just now"

"My lord, my subordinates think that the three-way arrangement in the south should be correct, but my subordinates have an idea. Why is the lord sitting in Bo'an? ”

It's true that Xi Zhicai is not good at tactical problems, but this can't prevent Xi Zhicai from seeing different problems through many things outside the battlefield.

"Well, it's because of the enemy forces that have invaded the three directions. The most difficult thing to deal with is Zhao Yun's way, Zhao Yun's famous reputation on the grassland is not fake. Moreover, Fang Zhiwen has always been very cunning and absolutely despised, so the official went to deal with him personally. ”

Xi Zhicai nodded: "Yuan Rang against Sun Jian, it can be said that it is an opponent in chess, and Yuan Rang has always been steady, as long as he steadily counterattacks, he can be worry-free, Miaocai against Zhang Zhiyuan, although Zhang Zhiyuan has the most troops, but the combat power is relatively lowest, therefore, as long as there are no major mistakes, it should also be able to keep Lu'an from losing, and over time, the shortcomings of the enemy's logistics will gradually be revealed, and our army can win." Next, the lord plays against Zhao Yun, can the lord be sure of a quick victory? ”

Cao Cao pondered for a moment, shook his head and said: "This official does not dare to guarantee, Zhao Yun himself is brave and difficult, and he is led by cavalry, if he guards Bo'an, it is safe, if he wants to defeat the enemy, he will have to fight wits and courage, if he can't say it, he will suffer a loss, and it is very difficult to completely defeat him." ”

"So, in other words, the best situation on the battlefield is a stalemate?"

"This"

"My lord, now that the enemy army is strong, it is already rare to be able to fight a stalemate, besides, we still need to guard against threats from the north and west, so we can't go all out, so"

Xi Zhicai raised his hand, interrupted Xiahou Yuan's words, looked at Xiahou Yuan and asked: "Even if it is as Miaocai said, it is rare to be able to achieve a stalemate, then, if the stalemate continues, who can guarantee that Yuan Shu, Lu Bu, and Yuan Shao will not take the opportunity to fall into the ground?" ”

"This shouldn't be, now Lu Bu is confronting Liu Dai, Yuan Shu also has to guard against the strong Lu Bu, and Yuan Shao, his Lu County has not yet been settled, so he won't lay down such a big stall, right?"

"Probably not? Is it this speculation that Miaocai uses to determine our military operations? ”

"Zhicai, what do you think it should be, if this battle is really a stalemate, then it will undoubtedly be unfavorable to our side, falling into the well is definitely the enemy's highest priority, if we behave too weakly, we will naturally attract the siege of hungry wolves. But is there a better way to solve the situation at hand? ”

There is 1 Xi Zhicai said categorically, and all the generals present looked at Xi Zhicai together, Xi Zhicai pursed his lips and continued: "Tian Ji Horse Racing 1."

"Tian Ji horse racing?" Cao Cao pondered for a moment, and then suddenly suddenly.

Tactically speaking, if according to Cao Cao's vision, the enemy will be blocked on the front line of Bo'an, Lu'an, and Hefei, and it is very likely that the outcome will become a stalemate.

If you follow Xi Zhicai's suggestion, use your weakest against the strongest, the second strongest against the weakest, and the strongest against the second-strongest, then you will have two wins and one loss, and this battle may end as soon as possible.

Cao Cao was overjoyed: "This strategy is feasible, so let Yuan let him guard Lu'an." The official went to Hefei, and Miaocai went to Bo'an? ”

Cao Cao's words also made everyone's eyes shine, although Xiahou Yuan was a little unhappy, but he had to admit that he was indeed the weakest of the three roads. For the sake of the big picture. Xiahou Yuan didn't say anything, at most he was defeated, and besides, the battle hadn't been fought yet. It's hard to say who wins and who loses!

However, Xi Zhicai was shaking his head, and everyone was confused again.

"Lord, can you defeat Sun Jian quickly?"

"This"

"Yuan Rang, can you defeat Zhang Yuanzhi quickly?"

"This. I'm afraid it's hard to say, but the opportunity is still great. ”

"What if the lord and Yuan let each other?"

"Understood, Zhicai asked the official to fight against Zhang Yuanzhi, so as to defeat this way in the shortest possible time, and then move closer to Hefei and defeat Sun Jian?"

"Yes, that's exactly what the subordinates think, what does the lord think?"

Cao Cao squinted his eyes and thought about it, nodded affirmatively, "It's feasible." The only thing that makes people a little uneasy is that if Zhao Yun's side can't stop it, will he drive straight into Shouchun, not to mention the loss, but the hearts of the people and the army will be greatly hit. ”

Xi Zhicai smiled confidently and said, "This is the basis for my proposal." Lord, from the perspective of war accidents, these three enemy forces are the most accurate to describe with the same bed and different dreams, after Sun Jian has Lujiang. Will be busy turning around to clean up the Jiangdong clan, so. He desperately needs to weaken us to a certain extent, and is eager to gain practical benefits from this war, and at the same time assert his authority over the Koto clan. ”

Cao Cao nodded silently in agreement, Xi Zhicai glanced at everyone, and continued: "Zhang Zhiyuan, he is here to accept the surrender of the Inhuman forces, what he needs is a matter of face and attitude, to what extent this battle can be fought, he should not have much expectation, as long as we can become the public enemies of the Inhumans and win the favor of the Inhumans for them, then the goal will be achieved." ”

"In the end, it's Zhao Yun's way, Fang Zhiwen is the party that should have the least appeal, first of all, the troops sent here are actually sent in the name of the Jingxiang clan, and the other party Zhiwen has no actual interests, so why does he want to join in this fun, even if he wants Jichun County as a buffer to the east of Jingxiang, we don't have the strength to fight with him now, so there is no need for him to go to war with us at all. But in fact, he participated in the war, and his subordinates thought about it for a long time, but they still felt that he was here to take advantage, since he was taking advantage, he naturally liked those altars and jars, so as long as Miaocai was not completely defeated by him, he would not storm Bo'an, but would focus on looting and harassing these things. ”

Cao Cao seemed to clear the fog in front of him, and saw the inside and outside of this battle thoroughly, so it is indeed a good way to look at the war from outside the war! This is also the overall situation that Xi Zhicai is best at.

"Well said! Zhicai Shingo ovary also 1

The lord praised 1

"Since this is the case, then arrange it according to this plan, Yuan Rang doesn't need to say it here, keep it steady, and when the official has his hands freed up, Sun Jian will be destroyed!" As for Miaocai, your side is the most important, be flexible, but the core is containment, don't be rash and fight hard, if you can't do it, you can't defend it, as long as Boan doesn't lose, even if Zhao Yun is raging on the periphery, the impact is limited. ”

"No1

"Yes! However, my lord, Zhao Yun has only more than 10,000 cavalry all the way, and his infantry will not follow to attack Bo'an, his subordinates feel that they should attack more actively, and use attacks instead of defense, especially the logistics line behind him. ”

Cao Cao pondered for a moment, looked at Xiahou Yuan and said: "Miaocai, your mood can be understood by the official, but it is not okay to underestimate the enemy's carelessness, since Bo'an has been handed over to you to garrison, then it should be the first priority to guard Bo'an, and on this basis, the official will not interfere with your decision-making, but Bo'an must not have any mistakes, otherwise military law will not allow 1."

Nuo 1 Xiahou Yuan replied loudly, and a cold glint burst out in his eyes.
