Chapter 825: Cao Cao sends troops

Cao Cao really couldn't hold it back, he never dreamed that the Xiliang army would be defeated so quickly, Jizhou was unified again, and Zhang Fan held a big wedding, which brought back the morale and people's hearts that had been lost before, and even improved a lot, now Jizhou is ironclad, and can no longer find a chance to attack, and if you insist on dragging, firstly, the situation in Yanzhou is a little worrying, and secondly, Cao Cao is also afraid that Zhang Fan will enter Qingzhou again, at that time, it is estimated that there will be nothing for him, even if Yuan Shao joins forces with himself, it will be difficult to compete!

Now the situation in Qingzhou is very delicate, Zhang Fan occupies Tai'an County, Cao Cao occupies Rencheng County, and most of the other places are in the hands of Yuan Shao, which can be described as three points of Qingzhou, but at this moment Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are in a state of cold war, and there is some friction between each other, if Zhang Fan sends troops, he only needs to drive straight in, separating Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, and then send generals to resist Cao Cao's offensive and concentrate on defeating Yuan Shao, then Cao Cao has absolutely no way at all, he can't attack the city with all his strength, so the loss will be too large, although it is possible to seize the territory of Qingzhou, But at that time, if Zhang Fan withdrew as a single person, then Cao Cao would be embarrassed again, he had to face Yuan Shao head-on, and if he didn't stay, Yanzhou would be in danger.

Therefore, Cao Cao can't delay any longer, he will either stick to Rencheng County, go back to Yanzhou to preside over the overall situation, or at least eliminate or surrender Zhang Yan, or he will fight a quick battle, and before Zhang Fan's wedding has time to send troops, he will defeat Yuan Shao, seize Qingzhou, and then defend it, in order to get the greatest benefits!

But in the same way, while capturing Qingzhou, Cao Cao also had to guard against Yanzhou Zhang Yan, but this was not an unchoice for him, after all, Qingzhou's geographical location was definitely better than Yanzhou, if it was really undefendable, Yanzhou would give up if he gave up, and Zhang Yan was a remnant of the Yellow Turban, the world would not tolerate it, if he got Yanzhou, I am afraid it would be a Quartet attack, and it was not impossible for Cao Cao to take Yanzhou back.

This is Guo Jia's analysis of Cao Cao, Cao Cao thought so, and at the same time he was also a little remorseful, if he had listened to Guo Jia's construction and attacked Jizhou quickly, I am afraid that the Xiliang army would not have been defeated so early, and Jizhou would have suffered a greater nightmare, but now it is too late to say it, Cao Cao is also a decisive person, he focused on the present, and began to prepare to attack Yuan Shao!

"Yuan Shao is already at the end of the crossbow, if you want a soldier or a general, you will be able to go down with a drum!" Guo Jia is still so confident, but he is not empty words, he is still completely sure.

Cao Cao did not hesitate any longer, and immediately sent Xiahou Dun, Cao Ren led 80,000 troops to attack Changlu County, and he personally led 80,000 troops to attack Philadelphia, leaving 40,000 troops to defend the town, and the soldiers were divided into two ways to attack!

The flames of war ignited, Yuan Shao jumped like thunder, but there was no way, Cao Cao's Yanzhou army was fierce, far superior to him, and the defenders of the two cities were not many, so they naturally couldn't resist it, and they were captured on the same day.

"Cao Cao, you are treacherous, pigs and dogs are not as good!" Yuan Shao was so angry that he was about to vomit blood, Cao Cao was the reinforcement he called, for which he also provided a lot of money and food, and now Cao Cao is using these money and food to arm the army, drawing his sword against each other, which is an excellent irony.

The god of war and the blood spirit looked at each other, if Zhang Fan was a Jiao, then Cao Cao was definitely a dragon in the sky in their eyes, they could still give it a go in the face of Zhang Fan, after all, everyone is a player, and no one thinks that they are inferior to others, but Cao Cao, the overlord of the Three Kingdoms, is too terrifying, to be honest, if Cao Cao accepts them, they will not go to Yuan Shao, it is definitely a thigh many times thicker than Yuan Shao!

Cao Cao only has 200,000 soldiers and horses, and this attack is only 160,000, but the two dare not underestimate at all, because they find that they really can't compete, if they compete with force, Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren Cao Hong, etc. are all top generals in the unequaled level, they are not invincible at all, if they fight wit, Cao Cao has Guo Jiaxunyu and other assistance, they can't compete, if they fight the army, their morale is low, and their training is insufficient.

Yuan Shao now has an army of 500,000, which is already all the soldiers and horses in the entire Qingzhou, of which 300,000 are soldiers and horses forcibly recruited by Yuan Shao, and the other 200,000 are the only remaining capital of the god of war and blood.

The two wanted to ask for help from the boss in the God Butcher plan, but the answers they got were surprisingly similar, impossible!

Just kidding, who would offend Cao Cao for them?

Although these people are allies, they also have a competitive relationship with each other, on the surface they share the same hatred, but in fact, they are eager to see that you are unlucky, who will put a basin on their heads, isn't that uncomfortable?

In addition, most of the members of the alliance have taken refuge in the local princes, and it is impossible for them to send troops without the permission of the princes, which is too difficult, because those princes are either too far away, and those who are close are all good people like Tao Qian, how can they allow troops to be sent?

The ambitions of the players are very big, they want to replace those princes, but everything cannot be achieved overnight, and if they really want to become bigger, they need long-term arrangements and planning, otherwise it may backfire, so they say that they will not send troops at all.

The god of war and the blood spirit really had no choice, so they had to protect their forces as much as possible, stay in the rear, and wait for the change of the battle situation.

The development of things made them desperate, the Yanzhou army was attacking the city like a bamboo, and the Licheng County near the sea had been all taken under Cao Cao's command, Yuan Shao suffered heavy losses, and could only concentrate the remaining more than 200,000 troops in Beihai City to defend Cao Cao's offensive!

For such a change, Tie Bi was not moved at all, he only had less than 100,000 soldiers and horses in Qingzhou, and he was not the main army, so there was naturally no problem with defense, but it was undoubtedly too difficult to attack, and he was waiting for Zhang Fan's instructions.

Yuan Shao was also lucky, hoping that the Jizhou army would send troops to stop Cao Cao, but he was also desperate to get to this point, and after sighing, he sent a messenger to Shouchun in Huainan, hoping that his brother Yuan Shu could come to help!

From Qingzhou to Shouchun to pass through Xuzhou, the road is quite long, it will take at least a few days to come and go, even if Yuan Shu sends troops, it will take a few days from the collection of soldiers and horses to the arrival, this time can only rely on Yuan Shao's own defense, but how easy is that?

Finally, Cao Cao and Xiahoudun's two lines of soldiers and horses met in Beihai, and the soldiers came to the city, and the endless aura of slaughter began to permeate, Yuan Shao's biggest test has come, so where will the northern overlord go?
