At the same time, intelligence points in various places have also sent back a lot of information. Gongsun Zan from Youbeiping has begun to attack Liu Yu from Youzhou. Taishi Ci from Shanggu sent intelligence and asked Lu Ning whether to send troops to support Liu Yu. Lu Ning smiled and said to Tian Chou: "Zi Tai, we have the energy to control Liu Yu's life and death. We are about to fight against the Xiongnu Tartars. We cannot draw troops to support them. Dai County and Shanggu are all facing attacks from Xianbei Tartars. It was because Gongsun Zan saw this that he dared to boldly attack Liu Yu from Youzhou. Besides, even if we have troops, we don't need to do such thankless things. Besides, we do not have the ability yet. Once our army falls into a battle with Gongsun Zan's army, the Xianbei cavalry of the Kebineng tribe will definitely attack us. He does not need to wait and the joint battle between the Suli tribe, the Mijia tribe, and the Queji tribe."

After hearing this, Tian Chou thought for a while and said, "Lord, even if our army does not fight with Gongsun Zan's army, we must prevent Gongsun Zan from attacking us. There are only 10,000 troops in Dai County now, which is a bit too weak. I suggest recruiting 10,000 new soldiers in Dai County immediately, joining training immediately, and forming an army at the fastest speed. In this way, Dai County and Shanggu will have the ability to fight together. Even if Gongsun Zan has a 100,000 army, it will not be easy to capture Dai County and Shanggu at once, and our army in other places will have time to support it immediately."

Lu Ning thought for a moment, and it was probably impossible to recruit soldiers. Taishici is now mainly in Shanggu, and there is a problem with Dai County without a confidant garrison. "Let Taishici recruit 20,000 new recruits in Dai County, and intensify training. Heizi will be transferred to Dai County to garrison, and Yang Chou will go to Shangdang to receive Heizi's garrison. Tell Taishici to let him guard Dai County and Shanggu for any matter. Dai County's troops are controlled by him. Let Taishici take advantage of the chaotic opportunity of Gongsun Zan's attack on Youzhou Liu Yu, seize some important passes and defensive cities, speed up the construction of those passes and cities, and closely monitor Gongsun Zan's every move." Lu Ning gave an order to Tian Chou.

Tian Chou said: "It's the lord, I'll arrange it immediately. According to the lord, how much time will Gongsun Zan take to capture the entire Youzhou? Is it said that Liu Yu has no resistance at all?"

Lu Ning smiled wryly and said, "Zi Tai, Liu Yu is just a pedantic Confucian scholar. His ability is very poor. He can only engage in the activities of cede land and selling honors with the Xianbei Tartars and commanding soldiers to fight. Then he is not as good as a child. You should have heard of this when you were in Youzhou. On the surface, he loves the people as much as his son, but in fact he is also a corrupt official, but he is just a little hidden. This time, Gongsun Zan led his troops to attack Youzhou and won in one battle. Gongsun Zan probably will be able to handle Youzhou in about half a year. He won't spend a lot of time. Liu Yu is Gongsun Zan's opponent."

Tian Chou said: "Lord, then we don't want to interfere in Youzhou, right?"

Lu Ning smiled wryly and said, "Zi Tai, I also want to intervene as soon as possible, but our main enemies now are the Huns and Xianbei Tartars. Let's first solve these Tartars and then consider other issues, otherwise our army will be very passive."

Tian Chou said: "Okay, lord."

Lu Ning thought for a while and always felt that there should be something wrong with Hanoi. After thinking for a while, he suddenly realized that Yuan Shao was a fool in history. In order to prevent them from having any ambitions for Lu Ning Bingzhou, Lu Ning still had to be more careful about him. "Zi Tai, notify Ergou, who is stationed in Jiguan, to magnify my eyes a little, pay close attention to Hanoi's movements. He must be careful about the defense of Jiguan, and not be careless for a moment. He should quickly increase the level and strengthen it. Every day, it is necessary to send a large number of scouts to conduct anti-reconnaissance on Hanoi, and lay a large number of mechanisms and traps outside Jiguan. If there is any situation, it is reported immediately." Lu Ning said.

Tian Chou said: "Lord, the princes who were originally staying in Luoyang had an internal conflict. Liu Dai killed Qiao Mao, the prefect of Dongjun, and seized his troops. Now, Yuan Shao and other princes began to return to their jurisdiction."

Lu Ning laughed and said, "That's because they don't have food to eat now. In addition, we swept the grain from all over the country before the New Year. The food they came from. When the princes were united, most of the food was supplied by Han Fu from Jizhou. Now the situation in Jizhou is not very good, and they can no longer supply food and food for Yuan Shao and others to eat and drink. When the princes went to attack Dong Zhuo, a lot of the land in their jurisdiction was deserted. They did not organize people to plant food at all. Even if they return to their jurisdiction, there would be no food for them to eat."

Tian Chou said: "Lord, will Yuan Shao really return to Bohai? If Yuan Shao goes back, Yuan Shao will probably not let Gongsun Zan get Youzhou easily. After all, Youzhou and Bohai are bordered by Liu Yu. If Youzhou is governed by Liu Yu, it will not pose any threat to Yuan Shao. If Youzhou falls into Gongsun Zan's hands, Yuan Shao's life will not be easy, and he will definitely face Gongsun Zan's attack."

Lu Ning smiled and said, "Zi Tai is right, but I guess Yuan Shao has no time to take care of Youzhou. Yuan Shao is thinking about Jizhou. How to get Jizhou into his hands. This is what Yuan Shao wants. After all, Jizhou is rich. Youzhou can be compared with Jizhou. As long as Jizhou gets it, Yuan Shao's power will soon become stronger. Although Yuan Shao has great ambitions and talent, he can even be said to be incompetent, but he is the descendant of the three masters of the fourth generation. His former disciples of Yuan's family are full of time. As long as Yuan Shao shouts casually, there will be a large number of civil and military generals who will join him. This is not something that ordinary people can do."

Tian Chou held the information in his hand and continued, "Lord, in terms of information, Cao Cao is now Chenliu." Tian Chou said while giving me the information.

Yanzhou, the prefect of Chenliu, Zhang Miao's mansion.

"Meng Zhuogong (Zhang Miao's name), if you hadn't taken me in, I really don't know where else to go. I would like to thank you again here!" Cao Cao said that since his defeat in the coalition army, since he had no place to settle down and had consumed a lot of soldiers, he could only fight the Qiufeng everywhere. Fortunately, he had an old relationship with Zhang Miao, the prefect of Chenliu. The two had always had a good relationship, so Zhang Miao sent someone to take him over.

Zhang Miao shook his head and said, "Oh! Meng De, do you think I came to you for your sake?"

Zhang Miao said again: "Do you know that I am unable to protect myself now!"

"Meng Zhuogong, what do you mean?" Cao Cao didn't quite understand.

Zhang Miao said hysterically: "Meng De, you are a wise man. Could it be that you haven't seen it yet? Yanzhou is almost out of food!"

"What? Why is this happening?" Cao Cao was really scared this time.

Zhang Miao calmed down and said, "I just found out, too."

Cao Cao said: "Mr. Meng Zhuo, I still don't understand what happened."
