For the time being, although Chen Wen's army had an absolute advantage in numbers, it was more than one order lower than the Baiyun City side in terms of average strength of soldiers. After the two sides were offset, Baiyun City's side still had a certain advantage. Coupled with the fact that Baiyun City had Yang Tian's bug-like mobile force, they were confident that they could take any city.

Yang Tian has already made up his mind, and when he destroys Chen Wen's side, he must go to Liu Biao to settle the old accounts. Let's not talk about the deterrence of the other party's Chen Bing this time, just because his friend Sun Jian died at the hands of the other party, he has a reason to send troops to Jingzhou. And now that Liu Biao didn't know whether he was alive or dead, he took the initiative to send it to the door, Yang Tian didn't mind teaching the other party a good lesson, and let him know that Baiyun City was not easy to mess with.

However, Yang Tian's idea did not last long, and another incident made him have to change his mind temporarily. The reason is that Xuzhou Mu Taoqian also jumped out at this time, and actually mobilized the army to Guangling County, east of Jiujiang County. Moreover, the other party's action was not carried out in secret, and afterwards it was clear that the chariots and horses had transferred the army.

This incident undoubtedly made Yang Tian very puzzled, to say that Liu Biao came in and got involved, it is reasonable, after all, Sun Jian and Sunshine are good friends, and now Liu Biao's subordinates have killed Sun Jian, and Sun Jian's son has taken refuge in Baiyun City, Liu Biao has indirectly become a mortal enemy with Sunshine, and it is almost impossible to reconcile. Therefore, if it is possible to weaken the power of Baiyun City or even slow down the development of Baiyun City, Liu Biao has a reason to participate.

But what is Tao Qian? Didn't you offend him? In fact, in the strategic planning of Baiyun City, Xuzhou is really not planned. At least for a short period of time. Baiyun City basically won't set foot in a state like Xuzhou, which is completely located in the north of the Yangtze River. He planned to move westward after taking the entire Yangzhou, and originally planned to take Jiaozhou first, but he didn't expect Liu Biao to take the initiative to jump out, so Yang Tian was ready to take Jingzhou first. But the plan couldn't catch up with the change, Yang Tian hadn't even been able to eliminate Chen Wen's army, and Tao Qian actually jumped out.

Of course, Yang Tian was not unaware of Tao Qian's purpose. It's that Yang Tian doesn't want to admit that he has developed to the point where the surrounding forces are extremely jealous, or rather, he doesn't want the strength he has shown to make the surrounding forces jealous. However, the reality is not up to people, and the biggest reason why Tao Qian will Chen Bing Guangling County is probably because he doesn't want Baiyun City to develop too smoothly, because Tao Qian has no way of knowing whether Yang Tian will point his troops to Xuzhou after taking the entire Yangzhou. You know, when it comes to the fertility of the land. Xuzhou can definitely be ranked among the thirteen states of the Eastern Han Dynasty, plus Xuzhou faces the sea on one side and borders Yangzhou on the other. After the Baiyun City side occupied Xuzhou. You only need to defend on both sides, which is much easier than the other counties. The most important thing is that the capture of Xuzhou will greatly reduce the distance between Baiyun City and Si Li, making Baiyun City more active in politics. Therefore, Tao Qian's concern that Yang Tian would attack Xuzhou also has full reason.

Yang Tian was also very depressed about this, according to the normal historical trend, after the end of Dong Zhuo's rebellion in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. The most lively battles in the entire Han territory are Qingzhou, Yanzhou, Jizhou and other places. As for Yangzhou and Jingzhou, there are only two or three kittens, otherwise Sun Ce would not have been able to gain a foothold in Jiangdong with the few men and horses under his command and develop and grow. But now in "Under Heaven", because of his own participation. Yangzhou has completely become a land of right and wrong, and the eyes of all forces are staring at it. His every move in Yangzhou can't escape the eyes of others.

This situation will be very terrifying if it develops, and even when Baiyun City is strong enough to a certain extent, it will prompt other forces to form an alliance against Baiyun City together. This is like Cao Cao in history, his strength made Shu and Wu unite together, so that the three kingdoms fought for twenty years. Although in the end, Wei had a slight advantage and defeated Shu and Wu, but in the process, it also allowed Quan Chen to take advantage of the loophole, so that Sima easily took away the world.

The Wei State is only fighting against the Shu State and the Wu State, but what about the current Baiyun City? Yang Tian is not afraid of Chen Wen and Liu Biao uniting, and even with the addition of a Xuzhou Tao Qian, Yang Tian is also confident that he will fight with the other party. But at this time, there are so many princes from all walks of life, if Baiyun City is too eye-catching, it is likely to provoke other forces to unite against it, and at that time, Baiyun City's life will definitely not be easy, let alone expansion, I am afraid that it will become extremely difficult to defend Chengdu.

But to make Yang Tian give up the elimination of Chen Wen and dispel the idea of going to Jingzhou, Yang Tian felt that he couldn't swallow this breath.

In desperation, Yang Tian had no choice but to gather Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Jia Xu and other capable Wenchen strategists to discuss countermeasures, after a fierce discussion, in the end, everyone followed Xun Yu's advice, that is, to temporarily taoguang and recuperate, and when Baiyun City can really despise the world, even if Baiyun City does not fight for hegemony in the world, then Yang Tian is also the king of the world in essence.

As for how to recuperate, everyone's opinions are very unanimous, which can be roughly divided into two paths, one is to rely on the land discovered by Gan Ning in the endless sea, gain a firm foothold on it as quickly as possible, and expand steadily. With the abundant resources of the Endless Sea, coupled with the effect of Tianji Pavilion before, all the armies in Baiyun City will have a big redress, all the main armies will be replaced with all gold-level equipment, and the ninth-order soldiers will all be replaced with platinum-level suits, as for the ground-level equipment, even if it is as strong as Baiyun City, it can only be manufactured in small quantities now, and the restrictions on materials and talents are very strict, and Yang Tian is also very helpless.

Of course, land alone is not enough, there must be people. For now, Baiyun City has occupied most of Yangzhou's land, and when Baiyun City takes Shouchun City, the population of the entire Baiyun City territory will reach or exceed 400 million, and if you count the players, this number will be close to 600 million. This number is already very large, and after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, no other state can have such a large population, except for Sili. After the Dong Zhuo Rebellion, the population also declined sharply, and the current population is unlikely to exceed 600 million. The most important thing is that the 600 million people of Baiyun City are different from other forces, and the qualifications of NPCs in Baiyun City are one order higher than those of NPCs of other forces, even if they are ordinary farmers, one in Baiyun City can be worth two or three of the other party. No way, the higher the rank, the more efficient the NPC. But even so, the 600 million population is barely enough to develop the previous Yizhou, but in the current territory of Baiyun City, 600 million people are indeed too little.

Therefore, the second road of Baiyun City falls on the population. (To be continued)
