Crossing the Battle of the Three Kingdoms

In order to prevent the two of them from evading food and other issues, Cao Cao pointed it out directly to avoid accidents or delay until the war started.

When it came to the supply of grain and grass, Xun Yu suddenly stood up and said, "Once this battle starts, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses will be invested. The prime minister should choose a place to store the grain and grass early."

Cao Cao nodded and said, "Yes, once the army from Xiliang arrives, it will cost tens of thousands of dollars a day, and it should be transported as soon as possible. How about the small city that exists in the old city?"

Xun Yu shook his head and said, "It's not right. If they are stationed in one place, if they are discovered by the enemy and sent elite soldiers to destroy them, it will cause an irreparable situation. It is better to settle in one place in Guancheng."

Cao Cao agreed with satisfaction and said: "Okay, this method is good, let's do it like this, do you have any other good suggestions?"

The entire defensive and offensive plan has almost been formed, and what Cao Cao can think of at the moment, he has already thought of it, and the rest can only be asked by them.

But things happened too suddenly, and they didn't have any good countermeasures for a while, so they could only try to be more consummate.

Cao Cao secretly began to mobilize troops, and Yuan Shao was analyzed by Jushou at this time, and his panic was relieved a lot, and he began to watch the show.

Since Li Shu came to Qingzhou, and some of the original generals in Qingzhou were also transferred to other places, it also showed that Li Huiyi might want to attack Cao Cao. After all, he and Cao Cao were the only ones he could attack.

If Li Huiyi wanted to attack Xuzhou, it would be too late for Li Huiyi to send more troops and generals, so why would he replace those veterans on the battlefield.

Since the matter has nothing to do with him, let's hang it up high. Yuan Shao has already begun to plot in his heart what benefits he can gain in this battle, whether it is from Cao Cao or Li Huiyi.

In Yuan Shao's mansion in Pengcheng, several people were gathered in a room at this moment, sitting on both sides.

Yuan Shao's face was relaxed, and he looked at the crowd with high spirits and said: "Everyone, Mr. Ju's analysis just now is reasonable. As long as Cao and Li go to war, our army can take the opportunity to rise."

"At that time, it will not be a problem to counterattack Qingzhou, or take half of Yizhou. I hope you will work hard and make great achievements."

Feng Ji glanced at Ju Shou and saw that his eyes were slightly squinted, as if resting his mind, knowing that he would not say anything, he was immediately curious.

It stands to reason that it would be good if they can secure Xuzhou now. Although Qingzhou has transferred some soldiers and horses, it may be even more difficult for them to break through.

Given his talent, he must have thought of this, but why didn't he say it? Could it be that there is something hidden.

After thinking about it, Feng Ji made up his mind and said: "Master, although Qingzhou has changed generals, there is not much mobilization of soldiers and horses, so it may not be easy to win."

"It's better to send someone to notify Cao Cao and ask for some benefits. At that time, our army will temporarily send troops to contain it. When the situation is clear, we will decide whether to attack."

Feng Ji's plan was not wrong. Although Yuan Shao had [-] to [-] soldiers and horses, they were all idiots led by children from aristocratic families, and there were only less than [-] elite troops who could really fight.

Chapter 572 The Inevitable Battle

Perhaps including Yuan Shu's troops in front, there are [-] elite fighters, and according to Qingzhou, there are at least [-] soldiers and horses, which means that the number of both sides is equal, but their equipment is not as good as Li Jun.

Although Feng Ji spoke out out of careful consideration, but Yuan Shao was in high spirits at the moment, his words were no less than pouring cold water, how could Yuan Shao not be angry.

The smile on Yuan Shao's face gradually disappeared, and he said displeasedly: "It's a big taboo for military strategists to change generals before the battle. Besides, Li Huiyi sent a ten-year-old boy to go to the army himself. This is to look down on me, Yuan Shao, how can I let it go."

"Otherwise, if it gets out, what's the face of this time, and who will come to join us at that time, this time we must send troops, if there are any more persuaders, we will be executed."

Seeing Yuan Shao getting angry, Feng Ji shook his head helplessly and sat down, worrying in his heart that this attack would damage the troops and fail the general.

Yuan Shao suppressed his anger, glanced coldly and said, "In order to reduce losses, I want to send someone to lobby Yuan Shu to attack Qingzhou as a vanguard, promising to share half of it with him."

With Yuan Shu's thinking, as long as he sends someone who can speak eloquently, he will definitely agree, and everyone here will know.

Guo Tu had quick hands and sharp eyes, and before Yuan Shao could finish speaking, he stood up immediately and said, "My lord, I am not talented. I would like to go to Yuan Shu and persuade him."

Yuan Shao nodded slightly satisfied and said: "Okay, then you set off immediately, and if it is done, I will credit you with credit."

"Yes." Guo Tumei complied complacently, and hurriedly saluted and left. The rest of those who wanted to make meritorious deeds all secretly looked at his back and despised him.

Yuan Shao finished arranging Yuan Shu's office, and then said: "This time, most of Li Huiyi's troops are transferred to Yizhou. As an ally of Cao Cao, we still need to send someone to inform him, so that he can be psychologically prepared, so that he will not be taken advantage of by Li Huiyi."

The lips are dead and the teeth are cold, Yuan Shao still understands this simple truth very well. He only needs these two people to fight to the death, so that there is no winner, so that he can take advantage of it.

Xin Ping stood up and said, "My lord, I would like to inform Cao Cao and make an agreement between the two parties casually, so that I can get some benefits from Cao Cao."

Yuan Shao stroked his chin and said, "Okay, yes, but the bottom line of this marquis is that he will not support the frontal battlefield, but will involve Qingzhou troops."

"Yes, my lord, don't worry, I will keep Ping in mind." Xin Ping saluted and turned to leave.

Those who should be notified have been notified, and the next thing to do is to dispatch troops and generals. Yuan Shao put away his expression and said seriously:

"This battle is about whether we can rise again. You must keep your spirits up. We will do our best to take down Qingzhou in one go. I hope everyone will do their part and do their best."

After Yuan Shao's words fell, everyone stood up one after another, and replied in unison: "Yes, don't worry, my lord, we will do our best."

Looking at the people who were still in agreement, Yuan Shao waved his hands and said: "Everyone, hurry up and get ready. I will inform you of the specific departure time."

Seeing this, everyone in the room left one after another, only Ju Shou stayed where he was, as if he wanted to say something.

Seeing the crowd going away, Ju Shou said, "My lord, I'm afraid this battle will not be easy. It's hard to say where Li Huiyi will attack."

Yuan Shao said with helplessness on his face: "Even if he wants to attack Xuzhou, how can our army stop it? It's better to give these soldiers confidence, so as not to fear the battle and collapse before the battle begins."

Yuan Shao had thought about Feng Ji's words a long time ago, but he had no choice but to fight desperately, otherwise all he had to do was slowly perish.

"Ai." Regarding Yuan Shao's helplessness, did Ju Shou not know, sighed and said: "Then, my lord, can you think about the way out?"

Yuan Shao shook his head and said, "Then what's the way forward? Ever since Liu Bei's Xuzhou was occupied, who do you think will take me in?"

Seeing Yuan Shao's helpless expression, Ju Shou decided to express his thoughts. "My lord, you must prepare to retreat to Shouchun as soon as possible. When Xuzhou falls, there will still be a place to stay."

Yuan Shao glanced at Jushou, smiled and said: "Forget it, if Xuzhou is lost, just relying on the city of Shouchun, how long can you defend it, but if you can survive, it is better to die in Xuzhou."

Seeing that Yuan Shao had such an idea, Ju Shou knew that this battle would be a matter of life and death, but he felt that it was time to pave the way for Yuan Shao.

"My lord, first move the money and food to Shouchun. Even if you lose the battle, you can take refuge temporarily. At that time, you can form an alliance with Cao, Sun and Liu and let them send troops to help."

"If they don't come, my lord can dedicate the city to Li Huiyi as a threat, and Cao, Sun and Liu will definitely send troops to rescue them. At that time, there may be chances for the two sides to have a good relationship."

Yuan Shao came from a noble family, and the time he endured humiliation in Xuzhou has become a life he can't bear to look back on, and now he wants to go back to that life again, to be honest, he really doesn't want to.

Yuan Shao shook his head slightly and said, "Shouchun is mortal. Cao Cao, Sun Ce, Liu Biao and others are not Liu Bei. The aristocratic families under his rule will not surrender easily."

"There is almost no possibility of becoming stronger, sir, don't deceive yourself."

Seeing that Yuan Shao had lost much fighting spirit, Ju Shou's eyes showed a gleam of coldness, and he said, "My lord, this method is just in case, it is not necessary to use it, but we must plan a way out early."

"If the lord loses his fighting spirit, then the people under his command will not be able to fight with all their strength. Therefore, they should be given a peace of mind. When the time comes, it is time to fight or throw, and make plans."

What Jushou said is not unreasonable. If the family members of the generals are not arranged in the rear, I am afraid that the failure of the front will trigger a series of surrenders.

Yuan Shao pondered for a long time and said, "Okay, sir, let's arrange it like this, move all the family members to Shouchun, and ensure the hearts of the soldiers who go to war."

Yuan Shao agreed, and Jushou felt relieved a lot, and said calmly, "My lord, our army still has a chance in this battle."

"Li Huiyi's change of generals will definitely cause some turmoil, and these people are unknown people, and they must not have much influence in the army. As long as they win the first battle, the follow-up will be much simpler."
