An Feng was lost on the last day of Guangxi's fifth year, and Yan Lou was also in danger after losing An Feng, who was a horn of each other, but the Yellow Turban Army and the players of the Golden Camp did not retreat, but actively prepared for battle in Yan Lou City, waiting for another fierce collision with Cao Cao and Xiahou Dun.

Yuan Shu in the north is also a little unstable in his heart, Zhang Liang lost Anfeng, and even Lou Lou is not guaranteed, if the southern line of Runan fails, the original deer of the northern line has become a salient part, and it is difficult to hold on, Cao Cao can also drive straight into attack Geyang, if Geyang is lost, Runan City will be dangerous.

Runan City is Zhang Liang's place of governance, and it is the spiritual symbol of the Yellow Turban Army in Tongbai Mountain!

As soon as Zhang Liang fell, Yuan Shu would definitely be difficult to support in Runan.

Although Yuan Shu has contracted his strength in the past two years to recuperate, he still has no strength to take the initiative to attack, after all, Sili and Yingchuan are the places of four battles, and they need to be defended on all sides.

This is not only because Luoyang's feng shui is not good, but in fact, the geographical location is not good, the enemy is tired on all sides, and it is too difficult to rely on Luoyang to fight everywhere, but unfortunately, when Yuan Shu found out this, he was already in Luoyang, in this case, Yuan Shu can have any other choice than to work hard to develop his own strength?

Therefore, in the strategy of Runan, Yuan Shu must form a relationship with Zhang Liang and unite to resist Cao Cao's erosion, and now, Zhang Liang has shown signs of insupport, and Yuan Shu can't help but panic.

"Guangqi, now that the matter has passed, who will remember what Cao Cao attacked Zhang Liang for? Now Zhang Liang is not supported, the situation in Runan has collapsed, and in the end we are afraid that we will not be able to hold Runan, seeing that others are expanding their territory, but we have repeatedly lost our territory, this. The"

Yuan Shu's grievances and anger don't know who to say, the status of the head of the Yuan family is gone, the huge power of the Yuan family is divided, and then the Central Plains was stabbed sideways by Lu Bu, the bastard, and the good Yuzhou was stolen by Cao Cao, the descendant of the eunuch, which was originally a great river and mountain of the Yuan family! How did it become such a situation now?

Yang Hong sighed. The key to the matter is still in the environment of Luoyang, Si Li is really not a suitable place as a foundation, it is too dangerous here, but the matter has come to this point. Now if you want to continue to develop on the good side, you can only step up to improve your strength, wait for changes around you, and then firmly seize the opportunities of these changes, so that it is possible to fight your way out of the wolves.

It's just that. The surrounding princes are not fuel-efficient lamps, none of them are easy to deal with, especially Cao Cao, who is extremely aggressive, and seeing that Dong Zhuo's integration of Yongzhou and Liangzhou is about to end, maybe when, Hongnong and Hedong County will go to war again, and Lu Bu has already wiped out Zhang Miao and Liu Dai's territory, is the next step to look at the west or the east?

"Your Excellency. Si Li should defend rather than attack, this is determined by the geographical environment, we must be patient, as long as there are favorable changes around us, we can seize it in one fell swoop, and break the current embarrassing situation. Things will develop on the good side, and before that, we must first ensure that the division is not lost, and Yingchuan is not lost. ”

Yuan Shu sighed dejectedly. clenched his fist and slammed it on the floor, and the grievances and resentment in his heart really had nowhere to vent. A nameless fire burned in his heart, and Yuan Shu's heart was anxious.

"Can we only watch Zhang Liang be defeated by Cao Cao, and then Cao Cao will merge the entire Runan under his command step by step, waiting for Cao Cao's thief to continue to grow and expand, and then eat Yingchuan, and even eat Sili? １

"My lord, that kind of situation is not completely impossible, but if Cao Cao is really strong to that extent, it is not only us who is uneasy, Lu Bu will be uneasy, Yuan Shao will also be uneasy, Zhang Bao, Liu Bei, and Sun Ce will be uneasy, just like Dong Zhuo back then, unless Cao Cao is more powerful than Dong Zhuo and can resist the princes of the whole world with his own strength, otherwise it will be defeated."

Yuan Shu's anxiety in his heart eased slightly, but he asked a little puzzled, "What does Guangqi want to say?" ”

"The subordinates want to say that even if Cao Cao really defeats Zhang Liang, he may not dare to do it with us immediately, even if he really robs the entire Runan with us, he does not dare to continue to rob Yingchuan, he must use more covert methods, if his strength expands too quickly, it will cause the strong vigilance of the surrounding princes, therefore, he will encourage the surrounding princes to attack each other, if the surrounding princes are not fooled, then Cao Cao is powerless, so although the situation that the adults are worried about is possible, but the premise is that we ourselves make mistakes, War with the surrounding princes would make that possible. ”

Yuan Shu suddenly, Yang Hong's words were indeed helpful to Yuan Shu, at least slightly relieved Yuan Shu's anxious mood, knowing that Cao Cao's power expansion was also limited, and he could not expand rapidly without limit, otherwise it would be a way to defeat, which made the distraught Yuan Shu finally find a straw to rely on.

"Then, now you can only watch Cao Cao attack Zhang Liang?"

"It's not necessarily possible to get it, adults can try to move on the north side of Changping, Ruyang and Gushi, but Cao Cao must have been prepared in advance, I'm afraid he won't be able to get any benefits, as for the alien Cao Cao has a way to deal with the alien, if we fight with Cao Cao to fight whose reward is higher, in vain it is just cheap for those unscrupulous aliens, and the effect is not visible."

"Damn Inhumans, with no morality at all, are truly abominable1

Yuan Shu's complaints are well-founded, in the past year, Yuan Shu has released a large number of high bounty tasks in order to harass Cao Cao, but the number of tasks completed is quite a lot, but the effect is completely invisible.

In fact, this is also to blame Yuan Shu's intelligence system for being incompetent, if his intelligence system can get Cao Cao's losses and contributions, then as long as Yuan Shu persists, he can still have a serious impact on Cao Cao.

"It's useless to say this, if adults must take action, then it's best to act with a tentative attitude, don't involve too much, otherwise stealing chickens won't be cost-effective if you can't eat a handful of rice."

Yuan Shu thought about it, Cao Cao only invested Xiahoudun and Xu Chu's army on the battlefield on the southern front, as well as the army led by himself, and from Ruyin to Chen County in the north, there were also Xiahou Yuan and Cao Hong stationed, Yang Hong was right, even if he wanted to do it, there seemed to be no particularly good opportunity.

But if it is a painless attack, it will not be able to mobilize Cao Jun and reduce Zhang Liang's pressure at all!

And Yang Hong's meaning was obviously to hope that Yuan Shu would not be too risky and should adopt a more conservative strategy.

Yuan Shu had no way to solve this contradictory thought, but threw this contradiction to Ji Ling, the general stationed in Runan, Ji Ling was actually a fairly stable general, after thinking about it, Ji Ling felt that Yang Hong's idea should be right, the number of his own army, compared with Xiahou Yuan and Cao Hong stationed opposite him, did not occupy a great advantage, even if he added the Inhuman troops that could be mobilized, he would not occupy an absolute numerical advantage.

If you calculate the problem of the proportion of attack and defense, even if you use twice the strength to attack the city garrisoned by Xiahou Yuan or Cao Hong, it may not be able to cause the opponent's battle situation to be critical, and Cao Cao needs to go north to help, strategically speaking, it is difficult to form the intention of encircling Wei and saving Zhao in a battle of this scale.

However, Yuan Shu's idea of attacking Cao Cao could not but be implemented, so Ji Ling decided to choose a direction that had the least impact on him, but had the greatest impact on Cao Cao, and it was also the position of the salient department militarily to launch the offensive, that is, Changping in Chen County!

Ji Ling ordered Yu Shi to set out from Xihua overnight, while he himself led the cavalry to set off from Ruyang at the same time, cutting directly into the area between Chen County and Changping, preparing to use Yu Shi to attack Changping, attract Cao Hong to rush to help from Chen County, and then ambush him halfway, if Cao Hong could be defeated, then it would be possible to capture Chen County, so as to form an important threat to Cao Cao's northern front.

If Cao Hong gave up galloping to aid Changping, with Yu She's 20,000 heavy infantry, he should be able to capture Changping, which was not very high in the city wall, and it could be regarded as a reasonable response to the lord's attack requirements.

Ji Ling hid around the road from Chen County to Changping for two days, and finally got the news that Cao Hong sent troops to support, I didn't expect Cao Hong's reaction to be so slow, Ji Ling did not doubt him, and when Cao Hong's troops entered within ten miles, Ji Ling's army surged out from the hidden place.

But Cao Hong's cavalry seemed to have been prepared, and the troops did not panic in the slightest, and immediately formed a formation to resist, and Ji Ling's cavalry circled, and soon after, another team of cavalry appeared behind Ji Ling, but it turned out to be Xiahou Yuan's troops, Ji Ling saw that the situation was not good, and immediately retreated.

It turned out that Cao Hong received the news that Chen County was attacked, and immediately reported the situation to Cheng Yu of Qian County and Xiahou Yuan of Ruyin, and he reorganized his army and horses to prepare to gallop to aid Chen County, but soon after Cheng Yu's reply was that this might be the other party's plan to encircle and send reinforcements, hoping that Cao Hong would not rush to help, but wait for Xiahou Yuan to come to converge, and then in turn plan to defeat Yuan Shujun's attempt, the final result was that Ji Ling and Xiahou Yuan were suddenly injured, Ji Ling had no choice but to retreat, Cao Hong smoothly galloped to aid Changping, and Yu Shi had to withdraw his troops gloomily.

Ji Ling's idea can't be said to be wrong, but the action doesn't seem to be painful, and the final result is that Cao Jun is prepared, but instead takes the initiative to harass and attack on Ji Ling's defensive line, which involves Ji Ling's mobile force, so that Ji Ling has no idea of large-scale attack at all.

Zhang Liang learned that Ji Ling sent troops, originally still had great hopes, who knew that Ji Ling was a little touched, although the northern front also began to fight, but there was no support for the situation on the southern front, Zhang Liang only then understood that in this world, it is better to rely on no one than on himself. Your support is my biggest motivation.
