The strongest system to dominate the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 989 Cao Cao's Dilemma, Xun Yu's Conspiracy

Being broken all the way, Zhang Yu and Dian Wei rushed to the middle again.

The middle road is still in a stalemate at this time.

Zhang Yu and Dian Wei arrived, and entered from the middle side.

Cao's army's formation suddenly fell into chaos.

The Fusang people in the rear also killed them.

Now only the army on the right can safely withdraw under the leadership of Xu Chu.

Cao Cao commanded the army to resist, but the defeat was irreversible.

The partial collapse of the middle road, coupled with the impact of the Fusang army, caused them great trouble.

The morale of Zhang Yu's army was so high that he passed by.

Cao Jun was defeated.

Finally, under the attack of Zhang Yu's army, Cao Jun retreated to the military camp to stabilize.

Zhang Yu and the others did not continue to attack, and returned directly to the camp.

Zhang Yu and the others won this battle, which can be said to be a big victory.

After going back, each took an inventory.

Cao Cao looked very sad and his heart was bleeding.

In this battle, he lost more than 8 people and a general.

He lost this battle, and he didn't expect to lose so badly.

You can't even fight to the death.

After Zhang Yu went back, he also counted the results of the battle.

In this battle, Zhang Yu's army died about 4 people, about 2 were his soldiers and 2 were Fusang's army.

At first, Zhang Yu's army was in front, otherwise Fusang's army could not withstand such a fierce blow from Cao Cao.

Zhang Yu's strategy succeeded, killing Cao Cao and the others by surprise.

Mainly because I didn't expect that Zhang Yu and Dian Wei would be so powerful.

This kind of situation has only appeared in Lu Buna. One person abruptly led the army to smash the formation of the army, and then rushed to kill.

However, Zhang Yu also did it today, causing Cao Cao to suffer heavy losses.

Cao Cao was in a bad mood, having lost too many troops here, his western front was at a stalemate.

More importantly, he has to continuously transport food, grass and soldiers from the east.

After this battle, each of them licked their wounds.

"Wen Yuan, I am here. You go to the rear to command the overall situation, build a stronger defense line, and let Han Sheng come over to support me." A few days later, Zhang Yu said to Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao is a handsome talent, his ability to lead the overall situation is stronger than Huang Zhong's, and Huang Zhong's combat power is also much higher than Zhang Liao's.

With Zhang Yu here, there is no need for two commanders.

After Zhang Liao understood, he set off immediately.

In the rear, someone needs to lead everything, build defenses, stockpile food and other supplies.

Another important point is that these places have just been conquered and need to be restored as soon as possible. At the same time, all parties in the Asian server are also required.

Some people have different intentions and are not reconciled to being ruled by Zhang Yu, so there must be no chaos in the rear.

Some people even took advantage of the chaos and became bandits, causing disaster.

Many affairs need someone to handle them.

Zhang Yu felt that Zhang Liao was the most suitable.

He has this ability.

A few days later, Huang Zhong arrived, and Zhang Yu and the others became even stronger.

At the same time, Cao Cao also sent a support force. They have hundreds of thousands of troops on the western front and can provide timely support.

Cao Cao cannot send all his troops here, because this requires a lot of food and grass support, and all resources need to be invested here.

However, if they cannot defeat Zhang Yu in a short time and problems arise in other directions, the entire situation will be in danger of collapse.

Besides, there can't be that many troops arranged here.

This caused Cao Cao to have to fight with Zhang Yu for this fearless consumption here.

More than ten days after the war, Cao Cao and the others had been facing off here for nearly a month.

For one month, the pressure on both sides is huge.

Cao Cao and the others tilted the logistics, and the entire force had a major impact.

Now, in Xuchang, Cao Ang and Xun Yu are very busy all day long.

Most of them are busy with only one thing, which is to conscript corvee and deliver food to the front line.

On the one hand, food and grass are raised, but on the other hand, what is more difficult than raising food and grass is how to transport the food and grass to the front line.

The long distance is as high as thousands of miles, and the people on the road do not know how much food and grass they will eat.

The two of them were very worried, but they had to do it.

Conscripting too many corvees is also a great test for the stability of their rule.

Many people need to serve corvee, so no one will plant the land at home, which is also a big hidden danger for the future.

"The war on the Western Front was originally expected to be won in about half a year. Even if it could not be won, it could still seize a lot of territory and then raise food and grass on the spot. But now the scale has increased, and it may take longer."

Xun Yu frowned and said to Cao Ang: "My lord, facing such a situation, it will have a great impact on us. If we cannot hold on in the front, it will be a disaster."

Cao Ang has been working hard recently, and he is also very sad. He asked: "What can you do, sir?"

"The worst plan, if you can't hold on, give up Changshan County to Zhang Yu, and at the same time build a city not far away, gather a large army, and fight against Zhang Yu." Xun Yu said.

The western front is thousands of miles away at its longest and is also very far away from their core area. It is also their rear area and obviously cannot be left alone.

If you manage, you need too many soldiers, horses, food and grass, and continuous investment will wear them down.

If we directly abandon the Western Front, the consequences will be the same and we will be surrounded by Zhang Yu.

In fact, the best way is to develop the Western Front in a short period of time so that the army can be supported locally, so that there is no need for constant supply from other places.

But Cao Cao and the others obviously don't have this ability, at least they can't support the consumption of the army within a year or two.

In fact, Zhang Yu didn't have this ability either, but he was rich and powerful enough to support such a large expense.

Cao Ang said: "Sir, you can write a letter to persuade my father, but it would be inappropriate for me to persuade you."

Xun Yu thought for a while, then nodded in agreement, and started to write with a pen and paper.

On the front line, after the battle, Zhang Yu stopped fighting, and the army maintained pressure so that Cao Cao could not retreat.

With Cao Cao firmly held back, the Yuan family on the other side could finally take a breather and rely on several counties in Bingzhou to recuperate.

The most important thing is that they have been expanding their military strength.

In this way, Cao Cao was also very depressed.

Seeking a fight, Cao Cao's army dared not move casually.

A few days later, Cao Cao received an urgent report from Xun Yu.

At first, Cao Cao thought that there was something wrong with the rear. If the food and grass could not be delivered in time, then Cao Cao would decisively order to retreat.

"Build a strong city to resist Zhang Yu."

After reading the letter, Cao Cao began to think.

Then Cao Cao called several staff members over.

"This is a letter from Xun Yu, please circulate it." Cao Cao took the letter down.

The letter was quickly circulated.

Xu You first said: "This is a relatively safe method, but building a city will cost a lot, requiring 10,000+ soldiers and civilians to build it for more than a year. This cost is the same as fighting a big battle."
