For the big battle after the beginning of winter, Xi Yu didn't take it to heart.

Although the current Yuan Shu has just gathered the Blackshirt Army and the Southern Huns, the momentum is flourishing.

But, who let this guy have bad luck.

To be precise, it is impossible for the princes to watch the two brothers of the Yuan family grow big on both sides like this.

On the surface, the current Yanzhou is under the peak of a group of princes.

There is Yuan Shu in the south and Yuan Shao in the north.

In the west, it is close to Hanoi Zhangyang, and in the back there is the old capital Luoyang, and in the east is Beihai Kongrong and Xuzhou Taoqian.

The whole of Yanzhou is like being wrapped in dumplings.

Cao Cao was in the land of Yanzhou, and on the surface it seemed that he was not qualified to compete for the Central Plains at all.

However, because of this, the princes somewhat ignored Cao Cao.

What's more, what no one thought of was.

In just half a year, Cao Cao completely pacified the entire Yanzhou.

Without the invasion of the Yellow Turban Army, Yanzhou, which Cao Cao had just pacified, is now considered a monolith.

Although under the edge of a kind of princes.

But!

Yuan Shao in the north is currently fighting with Gongsun Zhan, and now both of them are eyeing Qingzhou.

The contradiction between the two cannot be resolved at all.

Yuan Shao wants to become big in the north, and between him and Gongsun Zhan, it is like water and fire are incompatible.

Now that the winter is a little resting, when the winter is over, the competition for Qingzhou between the two will be in full swing.

Because of this, Yuan Shao couldn't care about Cao Cao in Yanzhou at this time.

On the contrary, in order to stabilize Cao Cao, Yuan Shao even had to take the initiative to choose to win over this little brother.

Probably, he didn't expect that Cao Cao would be greeted by Bao Xin and others to Yanzhou.

Even, his former little brother, directly pacified Yanzhou.

In order to stabilize Cao Cao, Yuan Shao had no time to take care of it at the moment.

And Cao Cao was able to borrow military rations, which was also a logical thing.

As for Hanoi Zhang Yang, now he has more than enough self-preservation and does not dare to invade Yanzhou at all.

Beihai Kong Rong, just a Confucian student, although he is too guarded, but he is not good at military affairs, there is no need to worry, not to mention, he and Cao Cao are separated by a Qingzhou.

When the Qingzhou soldiers fled to Yanzhou, some of them naturally flowed to the North Sea border.

At present, Kong Rong is threatened by the yellow scarf.

Xuzhou Tao Qian, but the first battle is indispensable, but this guy is old, sitting in Xuzhou and not enterprising enough.

Right now, this guy is holding the posture of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, although he is secretly colluding with Yuan Shu, it is not a big threat.

And Cao Cao is also very interested in Xuzhou.

It's Yuan Shu.

This guy is almost about to occupy the entire Huainan land at the moment, and Lu Bu has been attached to the army in the past, and in recent days, he has collected the rest of the Black Mountain Army and the Southern Xiongnu.

Momentum is inevitable.

The other party's soldiers pointed at Chen Liu, if it weren't for the fact that it was the middle of winter right now, he couldn't wait to invade Yanzhou.

It's just that Yuan Shu didn't expect that as soon as he marched into Chenliu, his own grain road would be cut off by Liu Biao in Jingzhou.

When the time comes, it will be difficult to take care of the beginning and the end, and it is impossible for Cao Cao to let go of such an opportunity.

That's exactly what happened in history.

In the flickering of his thoughts, Cao Cao on the side took the initiative to add fire to the stove.

"Lord, although Li Dao and Guo Yan are ambitious, it is enough for the imperial court to appease the two of them by worshipping the marquis now."

"Although the Son of Heaven is trapped, these two can't do Dong Zhuo, I want the Son of Heaven to be okay for the time being!"

Xun Yu thought for a while and said something on the side.

Xi Zhicai nodded, now that Yanzhou is calm, it is the time for these people to secretly accumulate strength.

These 400,000 troops only need a little training to enter the Central Plains.

And now, what Yanzhou needs is just a period of digestion!

"Lord, at the moment, we are the only great enemy, and the only one is Yuan Shu in the south."

Xi Zhicai's voice fell, and Cao Cao nodded.

Although he looked down on Yuan Shu on the surface, he was the third prince of the fourth world after all, and he had a deep background.

In the past few years, in the entire Han world, there are many wealthy families who have defected to the two brothers of the Yuan family.

At present, the two brothers of the Yuan family, one south and one north, can have such an achievement, and the name of the fourth and third princes has played a role.

Yuan Shu is in full swing at the moment, and he has a great intention of targeting Yanzhou.

"Yuan Shu is not to worry!"

Xi Yu said casually.

Hearing this, the eyes of the three people on the side all looked at him.

"Lord, Yuan Shu is narrow-minded, although Lu Bu has only been in service for a short time, he ignores Lu Bu and does not use it, and he is obviously a little jealous.

And the latter is a proud and arrogant person, and he will be in turmoil for a long time, and I expect that Lu Bu will soon abandon Yuan Shu and leave. ”

"And if he wants to enter my Yanzhou, Liu Biao of Jingzhou will definitely not be able to sit idly by, and if Yuan Shu moves in the winter, there will be a defeat!"

The joke was conclusive, and when the words fell, Cao Cao also nodded.

"Fengyi is right, Yuan Shu, but there are dry bones in a mound!"

In the back hall, the four of them smiled.

The flames rise in the furnace.

After this discussion, Xi Yu returned to his place of residence and stopped going out.

In the winter of this era, all the princes were in truce, and those who prepared grain and grass were busy preparing for the fields.

The entire Han world, as if in winter, has stopped a little.

In December, snow falls again in the sky.

The weather got cold again.

Xi Zhicai sat in the back hall of his house and carefully boiled wine on the stove, while Xi Yu on the side was studying something by himself.

"Ah Yu, what did you get that!"

Regarding his younger brother's sudden interest in carpentry, Xi Zhicai was somewhat incomprehensible.

Of course, Xi Yu has never had a few whimsical ideas since he was a child, and he has long been used to it.

The wine boiling on the stove began to steam, and Xi Zhicai turned his head and began to look at what Xi Yu was playing with, a little curious.

"I want to make a plow!"

casually responded to Xi Zhicai, and Xi Yu was a little helpless.

The winter of this era is still a little cold in the end.

Although he doesn't feel cold because of his physique, others will be cold!

In Changyi County in winter, there are almost no recreational facilities.

Coupled with the heavy snow outside, apart from moving his body in the yard every day, Xi Yu has almost nothing else to do.

It's okay to be idle, and I think of the spring ploughing after the beginning of spring.

Xi Yu thought about it, and then planned to make Qu Yuan plow.

After all, the current plough of the Han Dynasty is too backward, and with such a plow, it is necessary to use two oxen or one ox and one horse to drive side by side.

Moreover, the efficiency is not high.

Comparatively, the curved plow is much simpler.

It can't help but save manpower and even improve more efficiency.

"Is this a plow?"
