Wei Yan had already sensed that a storm was coming. Perhaps the lord is the real hero in this troubled world, and the world will be the lord's world in the future. And I, Wei Yan, will also follow the lord to determine the world in this troubled era, and the feudal marquis will be passed down through the ages.

At this time, Runan must become the focal point of the world's attention, and become the center of the wind and clouds, and this is what Liu Xun hopes. Otherwise, everyone paid attention to themselves before, which is not in line with their low-key behavior, and the most important thing is that it is inconvenient to do something.

The facts were indeed as Wei Yan thought, what happened in Runan spread quickly, and affected the situation in the world.

At this moment, it was the time for Yuan Shao to go south and Cao Cao to raise troops to resist.

Although Yuan Shao is strong and Cao Cao is weak, in the eyes of other princes in the whole world, both Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are giant existences.

The fight between these two is the fight between the first and the second, and whoever wins will become the overlord of the Central Plains. If you become the overlord of the Central Plains, it is possible to dominate the world and become the Ninth Five-Year Prince.

Therefore, before the news of Runan spread, the intersection of the eyes of the people of the world still gathered on the war between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.

And when Yuan Shao continued to go south, and Cao Cao led his troops to enter Guandu, Guandu became the focus of the world's attention. This distance is about 200 miles away, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack strategic points, and whoever kills the deer will directly become the key to the situation of the war.

But when what happened in Runan became known to the princes, the eyes of the people of the world suddenly focused a little on the city of Runan. Especially Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, who were deeply involved in the war.

For this war, Runan is very important.

In the war in the north, Guandu is definitely the top priority. In order to rush, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. But because of this, if Yuan Shao wants to break through Guandu, he will have to spend a lot of time and troops.

There can be a stalemate in the war. A stalemate means that the war will be prolonged, and the soldiers will be treacherous. The longer the war lasts, the more changes will occur.

This is extremely unfavorable for Yuan Shao, who has the upper hand. And to break this stalemate, it will take a surprise. And Yuan Shao himself is not capable of producing such a surprise soldier, and the burden of the surprise soldier falls on Liu Pi of Runan.

Liu Piben has thousands of elite soldiers, and he is strong. After joining Liu Bei, it expanded rapidly and reached the point of having 10,000 elite soldiers.

And Runan is very close to Xu.

With Liu Bi sitting in Runan, Liu Bei under his tent, Gong Du and other fierce generals, it can be regarded as a good look.

It was precisely because of Liu Pi's existence that Cao Cao had to set up 20,000 elite soldiers, including Xiahoudun, in Xudu as an important force to defend Xudu. Just in case, after all, he had suffered this kind of loss before, and Lu Bu almost attacked Cao Cao's lair at the beginning. Therefore, eating a line of wisdom is Cao Cao's growth path.

But now that Yuan Shao has the upper hand, if the war continues, Cao Cao has only two ways, the first is to defend Guandu, and the second is to retreat to Xudu.

The former road, in the face of Yuan Shao's onslaught, will inevitably be accompanied by huge casualties. Therefore, Cao Cao needed to transfer the elite soldiers in the rear to replenish.

Xu Du's elite soldiers may be transferred at any time, in that case, Liu Bi, Liu Bei and others will have a chance.

The second way is to retreat to Xudu.

If Cao Cao retreated to Xudu, then Yuan Shao would continue to attack Xudu with a snake. When Yuan Shao arrived in Xudu, Liu Pi's army could be used as a killer weapon to attack from the rear.

flanked Xu Du before and after, and destroyed Cao Cao.

Therefore, for Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, Liu Bi is very important. It is the most important person about the battle situation and the future.

Runan City has become an important city.

For people all over the world, Runan City is also very important. This is about Cao Cao's victory or Yuan Shao's victory. With Runan here, Yuan Shao's chances of winning are much greater. Without Runan, Yuan Shao still has a great chance of winning, but it also reduces the winning rate to a certain extent.

And the success or failure of these two people is related to the belonging of the whole world. Is it surnamed Cao, or surnamed Yuan.

Therefore, when the city of Runan was broken, Liu Pi was killed, and the news of Liu Ye's sudden rise spread, the whole world was suddenly in shock.

Runan has naturally become the center of the world.

Liu Bi is dead, who is this Liu Ye who replaced Liu Bi? A thousand elite soldiers started and went all the way up, finally eliminating Liu Pi and occupying the important city of Runan, which became the center of the world.

Liu Ye's next attitude is also very important, whether he is pro-Cao or pro-Yuan.

As a result, all kinds of information about Liu Ye also flowed rapidly.

Along the way, he showed a strong ability, first conquered all kinds of bandits, and finally defeated Liu Pi, and grew to the point where the world is now focused.

Why is there such a powerful ability. Also, is Liu Ye pro-Cao, pro-Yuan, or simply pro-Liu?

This has become a speculation in the hearts of the people of the world.

Guandu.

At this moment, Cao Cao's 100,000 army was entrenched, including famous generals Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Yu Ban, Le Jin, Xu Chu, and many famous generals such as Xiahou and Cao.

It can be said that the soldiers are strong and strong, stronger than most of the princes in the world.

At this moment, inside the big tent of the Chinese army.

Cao Cao knelt on his handsome seat, with a huge map on the desk in front of him. Cao Cao was lying on his desk looking at the map. During this time, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were preparing to engage in a tentative confrontation in Guandu.

But at the moment he has not yet decided where to make a breakthrough. Yuan Shaozheng relied on his powerful logistics capital to slowly grind with Cao Cao, thus consuming Cao Cao's strength to a certain extent. Cao Cao knew that if he couldn't find a breakthrough point at this time, his life would be sad, and he wouldn't need Yuan Shao to call, and he would collapse because of lack of food.

In the end, the strategists and thinkers of the Cao Cao Group found the place of White Horse on the map. This place is the key point between the north and the south, and the geographical location is a fight with Guandu.

If he occupies the white horse first and sends soldiers to garrison it, Yuan Shao will not be able to sit idly by and will definitely send a general to attack the white horse. At that time, he is mobilizing the superior forces of the decisive opponent and eating part of his troops first.

It can not only consume Yuan Shao's troops, but also improve his own morale. After all, because of Yuan Shao's hundreds of thousands of troops, the morale of Cao Cao's side has fallen to the bottom. Therefore, it is necessary to raise morale, otherwise there is no need to fight, and I am afraid that their current morale will not last long.

"Fengxiao, the result of their consultation is definitely feasible, I believe in their strategy." Cao Cao was very satisfied when he saw that his advisors had chosen this good place, but he also felt that he still had to discuss how to implement it.

At this moment, Cheng Yu happened to walk in from outside.

Cao Cao was overjoyed and was about to ask for a plan. But he saw Cheng Yu walking quickly, holding a roll of bamboo slips and putting them on Cao Cao's case, and said solemnly: "Lord, something big has happened in Runan." ”

"Could it be Liu Bi and Liu Bei, the two dog thieves, who attacked Xu Du? They really know how to choose the time, originally I had planned to let Xiahou Yuan lead his troops to quickly destroy them, but it seems that it is still a step too late. Cao Cao was taken aback, and asked while picking up the bamboo slip to look at.

"That's not it, the lord will know it at a glance." Cheng Yu didn't answer, but said.

Cao Cao began to focus on the bamboo slips, and after reading them, he suddenly put his heart at ease, his face showed joy, and he sighed: "I thought this Liu Ye was a genius, but I didn't expect it to be a genius among wizards. The future is really limitless. It's a pity that we can't leave now, otherwise we must subdue him first, and we can't let him grow up, otherwise there will be endless trouble. ”

"How does the lord plan to face this Liu Ye?" Cheng Yu asked.

"Runan is quite important, in Liu Bi's hand is a thorn in my hand, and now that Runan falls into Liu Ye's hands, at least before Liu Ye goes crazy, I can be much easier. Presumably, with Liu Ye's ability, his vision should not be short-sighted, and there must be someone who is stronger than that Liu Pi. So Liu Ye's attitude, of course, has become a crucial thing. So we have to win him over, at all costs, even if we let him join Liu Xun, Liu Biao or anyone, we can't let him contribute to Yuan Shao. Of course, the best outcome is to draw him into our camp, so that we will not have a threat from Runan, and we will have tens of thousands of troops out of thin air. This matter is very important, so you can go there yourself, and I don't worry about other people. ”

Cao Cao decisively gave the order.

"No. I will go to Runan immediately and settle for the lord to stabilize Liu Ye. Cheng Yu promised and immediately turned around.

"Hahaha, Liu Ye, you made such a fuss, but it saved me a lot of trouble. It would be so much better if you could take advantage of the trend and throw yourself on me. At that time, I, Cao Mengde, was not a stingy person, and the marquis will be chosen by you. Cao Cao's face couldn't help but show a look of anticipation.

Guandu to the north, Yuan Shao's camp.

If it is said that Cao Cao, who is stationed in Guandu, is strong and strong. Then Yuan Shao, who is stationed here, is a few points stronger than Cao Cao.

In terms of military strength alone, Yuan Shao was five times stronger than Cao Cao. The fierce generals Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang He, and Gao Ran were all the pinnacle figures of this period, known as the four court pillars of Hebei, and in the minds of the soldiers of the Yuan army, as long as they all went out, the Cao army would definitely be incompetent.

Therefore, it is not unreasonable that most people in the world are optimistic about Yuan Shao. After all, the strength is there, and it is not for nothing that the weak defeat the strong, but they are all a minority.

Almost after Cao Cao received the news, Yuan Shao also received the news that Liu Pibing in Runan had been defeated and died.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Yuan Shaogao sat in the handsome position. Yuan Shao's beautiful face is very graceful and atmospheric. worthy of the fourth and third dukes.

At this moment, Yuan Shao almost couldn't believe his eyes, Liu Pi, a general of the remnants of the Yellow Turban, was brave and good at fighting, with 10,000 elite soldiers, plus Liu Bei, Gong Du and others, and he was easily defeated by a little-known Liu Ye without fighting. This is too bloody, right, can you lose this? And he lost such a bottom.

Runan, he actually lost Runan, an extremely important city.
