"Your Majesty."

Xi Zhong lowered his eyes and said unhurriedly, "When Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty defended Guanzhong and Emperor Guangwu occupied Hanoi, they both consolidated the base first and then planned the world. In this way, you can win when you advance, and you can hold on when you retreat. Although the process was a bit tortuous, but

In the end, they all achieved great success in the world."

"The envoy originally relied on Yanzhou to gain momentum. In the past few years, the military chaos in Heishan was quelled, and the people were all convinced. Moreover, Yanzhou is across the Yellow River and Jishui, which is a strategic point in the world. This place is the envoy's Guanzhong and Hanoi. Yanzhou must be stabilized first.

Picture of Xuzhou."

"What's more, Zhang Miao's brother Zhang Chao has absorbed the remnants of Tao Qian's troops and is preparing to unite to resist the commander and defend Guangling. Therefore, it is almost impossible to resolve this war in a short time like Donghai and Langye. If the commander is in

Guangling wasted too much time. The Xiahou Prefect and Xun Sima did not have much food and grass for their troops and horses, so they may not be able to withstand it for long. Compared with Yanzhou, Guangling County is like a glass of wine and a jar of wine. What should you do?

Choice?"

"Zhicai understands that Shijun actually wants them all, but if he can only choose between the two, Shijun will definitely not give up a jar of wine for a glass of wine."

"Besides, this glass of wine won't help you walk. As long as you stay in Yanzhou and come back, Guangling County will still be in your pocket."

At this point, Xi Zhong bowed to Cao Cao again and said: "There are indeed trade-offs in the affairs of the world. It's okay to trade big for small, and it's okay to trade safety for danger. We weigh the current situation and don't worry about it.

If the foundation is not stable, the same is possible, but now that none of the three is beneficial, you must consider it carefully."

After listening to Xi Zhong's words, Cao Cao pondered for a moment and suddenly laughed loudly: "Hahaha, what Zhicai said deeply touched my heart! Someone, please send the order to return to the army to rescue Yanzhou. There must be no mistakes!"

…

At the same time, the situation in Yanzhou is also changing rapidly.

Sure enough, as Wu Liang expected, because Boss Cao was so powerful in the frontline battle, the appeals Zhang Miao sent everywhere this time were not as effective as in history.

In Yanzhou, Chen Gong was the most active.

Less than half of the remaining cities responded, and the rest chose to ignore it or express their neutrality clearly. Their attitude of protecting themselves was extremely obvious.

These are typical wallflowers.

They also wanted to wait and see the situation. If Lü Bu and Zhang Miao continued to conquer the city, they would immediately vassal them. If Lü Bu and Zhang Miao did not go well, they would not be considered rebels when Boss Cao came back and would not cause trouble.

Lu Bu, Zhang Miao and even Chen Gong should have understood this, so they quickly sent their troops north to start the war.

The first battle was fought in Juancheng, where Wu Liang was.

Of course, it's definitely not because of Wu Liang, but because Boss Cao's family members are now in Juancheng.

This is consistent with the history that Wu Liang knows.

Therefore, this battle was just a feint attack with loud thunder and small raindrops. On the surface, it was an attack on Juancheng. In fact, it was mainly to deceive Xiahou Dun who was stationed in Puyang to come to the rescue, and then take advantage of the opportunity to capture Puyang.

Unfortunately, this time, Lu Bu and others miscalculated.

According to the strategy formulated by Xiahou Dun and others around the "Flying Slaves", Juancheng is the most important strategic axis of the Yanzhou garrison. There are heavy troops on standby, just waiting for Xiahou Dun's troops who carry the "Flying Slaves". Cao Chen's troops and Cheng

When Yu's troops are in danger, they use "Flying Slaves" to send back news and send troops to support at any time.

Therefore, in the face of the small-scale harassment arranged by Lu Bu and others, Xun Yu not only did not panic, he immediately sent a large number of troops out of the city to counterattack, and directly ate up this small group of enemy troops...

???

These three question marks are the feelings of Lu Bu, Zhang Miao, Chen Gong and others after receiving the news.

Why are there so many soldiers and horses in Juancheng?

Could it be that Xiahou Dun had come to Juancheng in advance to protect Cao Cao's family?

But even so, if their two armies are united, they shouldn't have the strength to leave the city and resist the siege. Did Cao Cao leave a heavy guard here at the beginning, but we didn't know it?

So Lu Bu and others immediately led their troops to attack Puyang where Xiahou Dun was stationed.

Then they actually met Xiahou Dun in Puyang...

???

Xiahou Dun didn't go to Juancheng to rescue him at all?

We haven't even left the city gate yet. Didn't he receive the news about our attack on Juancheng? Or is it because Juancheng is already heavily guarded and there is no need for him to rescue?

How can we take advantage of this?

Lu Bu and others discussed it and finally decided to bite the bullet and attack Puyang.

They have just started to gain momentum, and they urgently need a relatively big victory to prove their strength, so that those who sit on the fence will respond after seeing it.

then.

They were dragged to Puyang...

At this time, there were no particularly powerful siege weapons. The defenders had an absolute advantage. In addition, Xiahou Dun was fully prepared, so it was impossible to attack the city in the short term.

What makes Xiahou Dun even more undisturbed is that even if the war becomes urgent, as long as the "flying slaves" are released, Juancheng's soldiers and horses can come to the rescue within a day.

So spend it first.

When Lu Bu and Zhang Miao's troops are exhausted, they may be able to send a message to Juancheng to send troops to encircle them, and give them a good start.

During this process, Cao Zhen from Linqiu and Cheng Yu from Fan County were not idle either.

Except for leaving some defenders behind, the two of them have united and marched northward, heading straight to Dong'a to put an end to the chaos in Liaocheng.

These two people were very confident in bringing the "Flying Slaves", and were not afraid of going deep into the enemy's lines and being trapped somewhere without being able to ask for help. In addition, the Yanzhou Rebellion this time was not all enemies like in history. The two of them advanced

The speed is also very fast, and the fight is smooth and smooth.

In just ten days, the northern part of Yanzhou was almost completely recovered.

In this battle, Cao Zhen's bravery and Cheng Yu's resourcefulness matched each other, creating a good chemical effect.

There are endless conspiracies and attacks, which only makes those rebels who have just rebelled, have not had time to join Lu Bu and others, and are still leaderless and fighting on their own, complain endlessly.

I don’t know how Boss Cao, who hastily led an army to rescue, will feel when he sees such a great situation in Yanzhou when he comes back.

…

On this day, Wu Liang, who had nothing to do, was taking a nap in his room.

Cao Ni came again uninvited.

"Female Young Master, Sima has been busy with military affairs recently and is resting in his room. It is inconvenient to meet the Young Master. Please come back another day."

Seeing Cao Nibu entering the hospital, Dian Wei immediately stood up and stood in front of her and said.

"He just wants to rest, and I won't look for him."

After giving Dian Wei a blank look, Cao Ni curled her lips and walked straight to the backyard.

In order to prevent her from messing around in the house, Dian Wei followed silently and monitored her.
