After Cao Cao inspected the army, time passed quickly.

Mid-March.

Yuan Shao had made all the preparations for the battle, and he could cross the river to the south at any time and enter Yuzhou and Yanzhou.

However, before crossing the river, Yuan Shao still followed the advice of his subordinates and asked Liu Bei to go to Runan to open up the situation of the second battlefield, so that they could cross the river and go south and enter Cao Cao's interior.

Such an advantage is even greater, which can make Cao Cao, regardless of the north and south, take care of it, and be in a hurry.

Therefore, Yuan Shao saw Liu Bei off today.

Yuan Shao attached great importance to the second battlefield, sent Liu Bei to the outside of the city, and said solemnly: "Xuande, we all rely on you." ”

This sentence shows that he attaches great importance to it.

However, they each have their own ghosts, Liu Bei doesn't take Yuan Shao's attention as one thing, but it is still necessary to be polite, and said: "If it doesn't succeed, I will die in Runan and never come back." ”

"Xuande's words are serious."

Yuan Shao said: "Take care of this trip, if you can fight, you will fight, if you can't fight, come back as soon as possible, we can't do it without a second battlefield." ”

"Good!"

Liu Bei said, and said: "In the Xudu court, those ministers and ministers have recently replied to me, they are willing to be the internal response for us, as long as Yuan Gong can enter Yingchuan, they will respond in Xu Du, and open the door of Xu Du for Yuan Gong in conjunction with each other, how to contact them specifically, the people I left behind will help Yuan Gong." ”

What Yuan Shao wants is exactly that, in this way, what can Cao Cao play with himself?

"It's hard work!"

Yuan Shao said again.

Then, Liu Bei really left, took the people around him, left Yecheng, and made a detour to the south to avoid being discovered by Cao Cao's people.

Seeing Liu Bei leave, Yuan Shao returned to the house.

As soon as he sat down, he said: "Lord, to deal with Cao Cao, there is no need to fight quickly, even if we fight fast and urgently, it will take half a year to a year, it is better to slowly consume Cao Cao, with our rich heritage, Cao Cao is consumed to death, this is the most stable strategy, and a quick victory is actually a bit risky." ”

It is not advisable to make a quick decision, and he and Tian Feng proposed it more than once, but Yuan Shao couldn't listen to it.

Guo Tu, who was at odds with the two of them, immediately raised objections.

"The law of the book of war, ten sieges and five attacks, the enemy can fight."

"Today, with the divine martial arts of the lord and the people across the river, it is easy to fight Cao Cao."

"If you don't fight quickly and let Cao Cao be fully prepared, it will be difficult to fight in the future."

"What's more, the main public army has a wide range of generals, and there is enough food and grass, so you need to be afraid of that eunuch?"

Guo Tu retorted.

Between the words, he was full of disdain for Cao Cao.

and flattery to Yuan Shao.

He absolutely understands Yuan Shao's character, and knows how to praise Yuan Shao in order to get Yuan Shao's attention and consent.

Frustrated, he said: "Cao Cao welcomes the Son of Heaven, holding the righteousness, the lord moves the division to the south, which violates morality, in addition, Cao Cao's strength is not weak now!" ”

Guo Tu immediately retorted: "The superintendent's words lie in stability, but does the lord need stability?" Take righteousness as an example, the edict of the Son of Heaven brought by Uncle Liu Huang to the lord and the edict to crusade against the rebels, is there anything more moral than this? ”

The judge on the side said: "The frustrated prison army actually doesn't believe in the master's ability, you keep touting Cao Cao, is it possible that you also received Cao Cao's benefits?" ”

"I didn't!"

As soon as he heard this, he immediately defended himself, and at the same time felt uneasy.

"Enough!"

Yuan Shao heard them arguing and had to stop.

It's just that he was quite dissatisfied with the frustration in his heart, and he Yuan Shao, who was not afraid of Cao Cao's eunuch at all, said coldly: "I'm not yet, I'm afraid of the Cao thief!" Kong Zhang, write me a letter and publish it to the world, I want to crusade against the Han thief Cao Cao and announce the edict of the Son of Heaven. ”

"Yes!"

Kong Zhang is Chen Lin's word.

Frustrated that he didn't dare to say anything more, he sighed and stepped aside.

Tian Feng has stopped persuading, so he is still a little iron, but now that he has been hit, he can't be iron.

As a result, Yuan Shao's subordinates, all kinds of measures to prepare to meet Cao Cao, quickly prepared, and the whole army was also busy, crossing the river to the south at any time.

——

Liu Bei led the people around him to stay away from Wei County.

"Congratulations, my lord."

At this time, Chen Gong got the news of Zhao Yun and said with a smile: "Zilong is outside, helping the lord to expand his strength to more than 5,000 people, and Liu Bi and Gong Du, the leaders of the Yellow Turban in Runan, have been subdued by Zilong and are willing to join the lord's subordinates." ”

At the beginning, Zhao Yun and Liu Bei separated, and first set off to Runan and other places where the Yellow Turbans are still active, to collect the displaced people and fight the bandits, including subduing those Yellow Turban Army.

More than 5,000 people are considered a relatively large number of troops.

As long as you develop it a little more and want to take Runan by surprise, you can still do it.

"Really?"

Liu Bei was overjoyed and said: "Zilong has done a really good job, that is to say, when we arrive in Runan, we can basically attack the city?" ”

"Yes!"

Chen Gong stroked his beard and continued: "The people we subdued have nothing to do with Yuan Shao, Liu Pi and the others are willing to use it for the lord, and we left Yecheng smoothly, and the lord's great cause has taken the first step." ”

Liu Bei agreed: "That's right! ”

Listening to Chen Gong's words, he seemed to see that the whole world was in his hands.

"Plus, one more thing."

Chen Gong said, and said: "The lord is actually not in a hurry to attack the city, before the attack, you can try to contact Sun Ce and Liu Biao, which can completely make Cao Cao feel desperate!" ”

Liu Bei said: "Liu Biao may be able to, but Sun Ce is also willing?" ”

Chen Gong said confidently: "As long as it is profitable, he is willing to do anything, Sun Ce is also an ambitious person, he has been staring at the Huainan area, and if he uses it well, it is to help." ”

"That makes sense!"

Liu Bei admired: "It's still thoughtful from Gongtai, I already know how to do it." ”

At the same time as they went south, Liu Bei, according to Chen Gong's suggestion, sent Chen Zhi to Runan as soon as possible to get in touch with Zhao Yun and ensure control over Liu Pi and Gong Du and others.

Now that everything is ready, it's time for the fight to start.

——

Yuan Shao sent out a message.

The content is very well written, Chen Lin wrote, the writing is absolutely not to say, and it is still in the text, Cao Cao was sprayed again, and the content of Liu Xie's blood edict was added.

This article, in history, sprayed Cao Cao, who happened to have a head wind, covered in cold sweat, and his headache was cured for no reason.

However, at this time, Cao Cao had not yet had a headache, and when he got the text brought back from the front line, he was still angry after reading the above content, and his face was flushed.

After this document was spread, the world shook, and the strongest prince, Yuan Shao, finally wanted to make a move against Cao Cao, preparing to expand southward, and the momentum was out of control.

"Chen Lin, who wrote this essay, is a bit literary!"

Chen Zhou looked at it and threw it aside.

"What do you think?"

Cao Cao said: "Yuan Shao's text is to tell the world that he wants to beat me, and it is also to call on the world to beat me together." ”

That's his concern.

and Yuan Shao single-handedly, he is not afraid.

I'm afraid, when I was alone, someone stepped in and stole his home.
