"Lord, General Zhu can't move. General Zhu's Qingzhou army is not completely in his hands, and the Zhang family has begun to act in the shadows, wanting to control the entire Qingzhou, although there is not enough information to show that they have a connection with Zhang Rang, but I have 100% reason to believe that there must be Zhang Rang's shadow in it. Guo Jia once gave advice to Liu Fan in Qingzhou, Guo Jia knew a lot about it, but from the secret report in his hand, he deduced that there must be Zhang Rang's shadow in it.

After reading the information in their hands, Wang Jian and Xue Rengui did not agree with Zhu You to take the Qingzhou Army to act, and after He Muping's death, Zang Wei once again changed his camp and took refuge in the Zhang family. Zhu You currently has to rely on the Assassin Mansion to provide all his food and salary, and if Zhu You shows too much strength at this time, he will be easily constrained by the Zhang family, and it is very likely that he will lose all the military power in his hands.

"My lord, although the Zhang family is very covert and does not show any intentions, their approach is obviously to control the entire Qingzhou, in order to echo the imperial capital and maintain the Zhang family's position in Qingzhou. Guo Jia took out a map and compared it: "Lord, please see, at present, there are ten cities in Qingzhou, of which General Zhu can control only three cities, and the three cities are completely separated by the strength of the Zhang family, so they can be easily captured." ”

"Lord, now that Qingzhou has recovered after a year, its strength has been restored, with a total of 600,000 troops, but how many troops can General Zhu really control? 200,000!" Guo Jia raised two fingers and said to Liu Fan: "The 200,000 army defends the three cities, but the lord should not forget one thing, that is, the prestige of the lord in Qingzhou." ”

Liu Fan looked at Guo Jia and motioned for Guo Jia to continue, Guo Jia picked up a book in his hand and said: "What the lord has done in Qingzhou has won the hearts of the people of Qingzhou, and the Zhang family will not be able to launch an attack on General Zhu for at least two years, after all, the prestige of the lord in Qingzhou is not small. ”

"In this way, then we don't take any action, and let Zhang do these small actions behind his back. Liu Fan frowned and looked at Guo Jia, but Guo Jia shook his head very solemnly.

"It's not about doing nothing, it's about giving up the two cities. Shrinking our forces to hold a corner of Qingzhou will lay a nail in our actions in Qingzhou. Lord, now that the situation in Qingzhou City is still clear, it is obvious that we can't stand Qingzhou City, so I suggest that the Lord ask General Zhu to give up Qingzhou. Bochang. Defend the thousand times with all your might. As long as you hold the thousand times, you can echo the headquarters of General Yuwen in Yuzhou, and even if you want to do it, you have to consider the consequences. Moreover, the plains near Qiancheng can barely feed General Zhu's 200,000 army. ”

"My lord. Qingzhou military occupation is not easy to expand, although Qingzhou is rich, compared to Yangzhou and other states are still slightly worse, for today's plan as long as to hold a city, when we pacify the imperial capital. When the troops leave Qingzhou, they can fight with General Zhu to pacify Qingzhou. ”

Liu Fan can be said to not have enough confidence in his military plans, although he has experienced the bombardment of various strategic film and television dramas in his previous life, he is not a professional after all, so his grasp of these military strategies is not very reliable. The choice of strategy Liu Fan prefers to believe in Guo Jia and others, after all, they are real professionals.

"Okay, someone came to send an order to Zhu You to immediately shrink his forces in Qiancheng County, and send someone to contact the Zhang family and tell them that we didn't mean to offend the Zhang family. I just don't want the inheritance of my ancestors to be ruined in my hands. Liu Fan quickly wrote a military order and sent it down, and a herald took the military order from Liu Fan's hand and hurriedly walked down.

All the situation is now clear, except for Yuwen Chengdu, which occupies a city in Yuzhou, and does not continue to expand its territory. On the contrary, it is steady and steady, holding the existing territory, and absolutely nothing can happen. Qingzhou Zhu You received Liu Fan's military order and began to shrink his forces, and the people sent out from Yangzhou City quickly connected with the Zhang family. The two sides also reached a preliminary agreement, as long as Liu Fan did not do anything to harm the Zhang family. The Zhang family will definitely not make a move. Of course, it is entirely up to the Zhang family to decide what hurts the Zhang family, and Liu Fan just doesn't care about this kind of covenant, after all, the covenant has been torn up since its birth.

"Haven't you been in contact with Longxuyan yet?" Liu Fan's face was solemn, the intelligence network at hand Dark Night Quicksand had just begun to form, and now its strength was very weak, and it was obviously impossible to test the Dark Night Quicksand to provide information about the war, and the Liu family had sent people to contact Longxuyan from the moment the army set off, but until now there was no news at all.

"Nope. Guo Jia shook his head solemnly and said, "It seems that the other party should also deliberately avoid us, otherwise it is impossible not to make a move in the face of such an opportunity." It is very likely that the other party is not optimistic about our battle at all, after all, the disparity in strength is too great, and Zhang Rang's Praetorian Guard Legion is enough to crush us. ”

Liu Fan nodded, after all, the gap in strength was too big, and at this time, the other party was obviously also sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, and did not want to give Liu Fan more help, so as to prevent Liu Fan from failing and affecting himself. The more this happens, the more it arouses Liu Fan's competitive heart, he has the Book of Summoning Heaven in his hand, so many powerful subordinates, even if he fails, he can start all over again, as long as he can have a place to live and live, with so many talents in his hands, he doesn't believe that he can't break into a new world. What's more, now that some of his subordinates have become warlords, even if he fails, Liu Fan can still make a comeback.

"Okay, continue to send people to contact them, even if it is to pay a little more price, it doesn't matter, in short, we must find a way to get all the jihua of Zhang Rang's operation this time, at least we must know Zhang Rang's support for the Yangzhou war this time. We urgently need to find out the full strength of the Yangzhou garrison. ”

Sending away Guo Jia and others, Liu Fan broke away from the Fan brothers, and rushed out of the barracks with Linghu, summoning the rhythm of the book of heaven that can be summoned is getting faster and faster, but this is okay, Liu Fan is now continuing to strengthen his subordinates, and he will hate less when he is used. The call of the familiar road, although it was not as vigorous as the last summoning, but the three generals in front of him also gave Liu Fan a different feeling, with killing in the fierceness, and the smell of the sea breeze in the killing.

"The last generals Zhou Yu, Gan Ning, and Zhou Tai meet the lord!" The call of the familiar road can even be said to be a little fast, and Liu Fan has not even had time to distinguish who the three generals are, and the three of them have already appeared in front of Liu Fan. The three of them reported to their homes before Liu Fan's reaction came to their homes, and this time they slapped Liu Fan, who had reacted, into petrification again.

"Zhou Yu, known as the beautiful Zhou Lang of Eastern Wu, is the number one hero in the history of Eastern Wu, and the Battle of Chibi is the first to be the first contribution. Holding the Holy Rank Seven-Star Moon Worship Sword, wearing the Holy Rank Clear Wind Silver Moon Armor, the Soul Beast Holy Rank Soul Beast Sea Soul Beast, and the mid-level strength of the Tiangang Realm. ”

"Gan Ning, one of the main generals of Eastern Wu, known as the Jinfan thief, proficient in water warfare, strong in martial arts, and once had the feat of robbing Cao Ying with a hundred horsemen. Holding the Heaven Rank Upper Grade Soul Lock Knife, he was wearing the Holy Rank Battle Armor Sea Beast Lion Armor, the Soul Beast Holy Rank Sea Barbarian Bull, and the Tiangang Realm Upper Rank Cultivator. ”

"Zhou Tai, one of the generals of Eastern Wu, is one of the most trusted generals of Sun Quan, the monarch of Eastern Wu, proficient in water and land warfare, strong in martial arts, once saved Sun Quan alone, and the scars on his body are even more miserable. Holding the Heavenly Rank Seven-Soul Silver Moon Knife, wearing the Holy Rank Saint-Rank Battle Armor Iron Lion Swallowing Bear Armor, the Soul Beast Saint-Rank Siren Wolf, and the Upper Rank of the Tiangang Realm Cultivation. ”

"Get up, you have come just in time, you can rush to Huiji City with my token now, there is about to be a big battle to be fought, and the task I give you is to be sure to drag the enemy to death under Huiji City, do you have confidence?" Liu Fan took out a token from his arms and handed it to Zhou Yu, the uneasiness in his heart finally calmed down, and Zhou Yu's appearance just made up for the serious shortage of generals in Liu Fan's navy.

"The last general will not disappoint the lord. Zhou Yu assured Liu Fan loudly, took the token in Liu Fan's hand, and took Gan Ning and Zhou Tai to take advantage of the night to rush towards Huiji.

After all, the combat effectiveness of Yangzhou's naval army cannot be compared with the navy of Yizhou, and this time Zhang Rang transferred the elite of the Yizhou navy, Liu Fan did not expect Zhou Yu to be able to destroy the other party with the limited force in his hand, as long as he can drag out the other party, it will be a victory. But Liu Fan was not satisfied, and there was always a dark feeling that Liu Fan was going to be devastated this time by the Yangzhou Navy and the Yizhou Navy, maybe it was just the man standing in front of him whose surname was Zhou, and his name was Yu.
