"It's a good thing that Chu Zimou is not in Xuzhou, otherwise he would ruin my good deeds again!"

When Cao Cao went to Chutian to participate in the national war, he was plotting to counterattack the Yanzhou Allied Forces.

Chutian's plan deceived Cao Cao, which delayed Cao Cao's development for at least half a year. Without Chutian's support for Jiyin Prefecture Gong Ziwen, he would not have been able to call so many lords to oppose Cao Cao.

Chu Tian's appeal among the player lords is too great. Gongzi Wen, who has Chu Tian's support, has the most say in the anti-Cao Cao alliance, so he can mobilize the forces of various lords in Yanzhou to besiege Cao Cao.

Cao Cao was very worried about this.

It's not that Cao Cao doesn't want to launch a massive counterattack, but once he launches a massive counterattack, Chutian will definitely invest Xuzhou's main force to assist Gong Ziwen, and Cao Cao will still fail.

But no matter what, Chu Zimou took away the main force in order to participate in the second national war. This was Cao Cao's opportunity.

The foreign staff reported: "The five hundred tiger and leopard cavalry secretly recruited during this period can be put into use, and the thirty thousand Qingzhou army recruited for General Yu Jin is also ready."

"Whoever kills the young master will receive a reward of one thousand!"

In order to boost morale, Cao Cao did not hesitate to offer a large reward to Gong Ziwen, the leader of the anti-Cao Cao alliance.

Gong Ziwen and Chu Zimou colluded and suppressed him in Yanzhou, resulting in him never being able to develop.

So far, Cao Cao is only the governor of Dongjun, and half of Dongjun's territory is occupied by the anti-Cao Cao alliance.

"Lord, while Chu Zimou has left Xuzhou and has no time to take care of Yanzhou, we must break the situation as soon as possible and occupy Yanzhou. Otherwise, once Chu Zimou comes back, he will definitely not stand idly by. This is the only chance."

The foreign staff spoke with sincerity and sincerity.

They took refuge in Cao Cao because Cao Cao was more meritocratic than other princes and could listen to many suggestions.

"Our troops are still insufficient, is there any way to win quickly?"

"Yes. My lord only needs to surrender to Yuan Shao, ask Yuan Shao to withdraw his troops, or even borrow his troops. First defeat Gong Ziwen, occupy Yanzhou, and then wait for an opportunity to break with Yuan Shao. My lord, please don't care about temporary inferiority. Improving your strength is everything."

After listening to the suggestion of the foreign staff, Cao Cao finally said slowly: "If you surrender to Yuan Benchu, you can get Yanzhou, so what's the problem?"

"I'm going to lobby Xu You, and I will definitely succeed."

…

The anti-Cao Cao alliance, leader Gong Ziwen, met with the lords of Yanzhou and declared their determination: "Chu Zimou went to participate in the national war, and we must defeat Cao Cao as soon as possible. Otherwise, when Chu Zimou comes back and we work hard to defeat Cao Cao, we will become someone else's wife."

Clothes."

All the great lords in Yanzhou approved Gongziwen's proposal.

They also knew Chu Tian's purpose of supporting them to suppress Cao Cao, but they had no choice.

"Starting tomorrow, we will attack Cao Cao day and night until we defeat Cao Cao! If he is willing to serve us, that would be great!"

The Yanzhou coalition forces once again fought against Cao Cao's army outside Puyang City.

Cao Cao led Dian Wei, Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Yu Jin, Li Dian, Le Jin, Zhang Liao and other generals to the battle.

With the support of Yiren, Cao Cao's power recovered slightly and he decided to invite the Yanzhou coalition forces for a decisive battle.

The two sides faced each other in formation. Cao Cao's side only had tens of thousands of people, but the Yanzhou coalition forces were replenished and gathered more than 200,000 troops under Puyang City!

The war drums were beating, and the Yanzhou coalition forces took the initiative to attack Cao Cao's army!

They have a large number and have an absolute advantage.

The two sides' shouts of killing shook the heaven and the earth, and they fought under the city of Puyang. Hundreds of thousands of people in Puyang City were terrified.

This big battle may decide the ownership and destiny of Yanzhou!

Gongziwen was originally the lord of Dongjun. In order to avoid Cao Cao's attack, he moved to fight against Dingtao in Jiyin County. Now he returns to Dongjun to compete with Cao Cao for the position of Yanzhou Mu.

The battle between the two sides was in full swing, and Yu Jin led 30,000 Qingzhou troops to press forward!

Cao Chun led five hundred secretly recruited tiger and leopard cavalry to charge from the rear!

Zhang Liao personally led 800 cavalry to fight with the Yanzhou coalition forces, shocking Dongjun!

…

"The weather is cold, something bad happened, the Yanzhou coalition forces were defeated, and the morale of the army was shaken. Gongzi Wen led the coalition forces to retreat from Dongjun, intending to retreat to Dingtao in order to counterattack."

After Xia Liang managed to recruit Zhang Zhao, something worried her again. Xue Yue, who was responsible for using players to gather intelligence, reported important news.

The thing Chu Tian was most worried about before leaving Xuzhou happened - Cao Cao defeated the Yanzhou coalition and had the potential to sweep the entire Yanzhou!

After Chutian's victory in the Battle of Xuzhou, he took advantage of the victory and successively captured Xuzhou's Donghai Kingdom, Xiapi Kingdom, and Pengcheng Kingdom, and became the Mu of Xuzhou.

In the same way, if Cao Cao wins, he will have the ability and reputation to unify Yanzhou!

"Gongzi Wen can be regarded by the lord as a pawn to delay Cao Cao's development. He must be superior. He has many troops and a military commander Pang Juan, so why did he lose to Cao Cao?"

It's so cold in summer.

"Cao Cao secretly professed his vassalage to Yuan Shao and was willing to pacify Henan for the Yuan family. Therefore, Yuan Shao ordered Yan Liang to stop attacking Cao Cao. Cao Cao was able to send all his troops to deal with Gongzi Wen."

"Most of the players from Yuan Shao's influence don't want to see our lord dominate the south of the Yellow River, so they want to support Cao Cao to fight against us."

Xia Liang speculated that it was the players from Yuan Shao's influence who contributed to the reconciliation between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao. Otherwise, given Yuan Shao's character, he would not give up attacking Cao Cao easily after breaking up with Cao Cao.

Cao Cao became Yuan Shao's younger brother again. Seeing that his goal was achieved, Yuan Shao let Cao Cao control Yanzhou and threaten Xuzhou.

The war north of the Yellow River continued, while the lords south of the Yellow River were dominated by one family.

Except for Cao Cao, there were no powerful princes south of the Yellow River to check and balance Chu Tian. Therefore, Yuan Shao's forces temporarily ignored their past grievances and continued to cooperate to check and balance Chu Tian.

"Xueyue, is Gongziwen capable of guarding Dingtao?"

"Although the Yanzhou Allied Forces were defeated by Cao Cao during the battle, they did not collapse completely and the losses were not great. They can probably hold on."

"You tell Mr. Wen that if he holds on, Xuzhou will send troops to support him."

"Are you planning to send troops?"

"Yes. Your lord has left me the power to send out troops appropriately. I can't sit back and watch Cao Cao annex Gongzi Wen. Cao Cao who unifies Yanzhou will be very powerful."

"But...the opponent is Cao Cao, can you compete with him?"

"We have Zhou Yafu here. All we need to do is assist Mr. Wen in guarding Dingtao in Jiyin County."

"I see."

After ending contact with Xue Yue, Xia Liang recruited Zhou Yafu who was currently stationed in Xiapi.

"General Zhou Yafu, I order your army to move to Pengcheng, and then attack Peixian and Fengxian from Pengcheng. After capturing Peixian and Fengxian, support Dingtao. When you arrive in Dingtao, I will personally use the teleportation array to go to Dingtao City to take command.

"

Zhou Yafu had no objection to accepting Xia Liang's order, but he had objections to Xia Liang personally going to Dingtao to command: "Miss Xia, please don't put yourself in danger. Once Cao Cao besieges the city and the teleportation array fails, Miss Xia, you will be in danger."

Already."

"Just follow the orders."

"The general will obey his orders."

Zhou Yafu left.

"Zhou Yafu and Zhou Cang can contain Cao Cao. This should be the reason why the lord kept them. It would be great if there were more generals. Yes, there is still Xu Rong who has not surrendered."

Xia Liang specially ordered Xu Rong, who was tied up, to be escorted over.

"General Xu, you have been detained for several months, have you figured it out?"

Xia Liang knew that Chu Tian had been trying to persuade Xu Rong to surrender, but Xu Rong never surrendered.

"If your lord Dong Zhuo was made Prime Minister and deposed the Han Emperor, would you continue to be loyal to him? If your lord lived in a corner with wine ponds and meat forests, without the determination to help the world and the ambition to conquer the Central Plains, would you still

Will you continue to be loyal to him? After General Hua Xiong took refuge with our Lord Xuzhou Mu, he has already had a harmonious relationship with the generals and made great achievements. Why should General Xu pretend to be reserved, even worse than me, a female prostitute?"

Xia Liang's words stimulated Xu Rong, and Xu Rong finally wavered: "Has Dong Zhuo really lost his ambition?"

"He is old and has been unable to make progress for a long time. He has also suffered from cholera in the court, so there is really no need to follow him. In contrast, Mr. Zhou Mu is young and promising, and..."

Xia Liang originally wanted to say that he was handsome, but it seemed that this characteristic had nothing to do with Xu Rong, so he said: "He is also a meritorious person."

"That's all. I really didn't expect to be scolded by a woman today. She hurriedly recruited me at the last moment. She must have given orders."

"Yes, I want to ask you to deal with someone."

"who?"

"Cao Cao."

"But Cao Mengde? He is not an ally with you?"

"There are no permanent friends between forces, only permanent interests. General Xu doesn't understand this, right?"

"Then the girl believes that Xu Rong will not betray me temporarily?"

"I believe you won't have a better choice. Our lord is the most promising state pastor south of the Yellow River."

"I see."

Xu Rong was scolded but surrendered instead.

If Chu Tian knew that Xia Liang had surrendered Xu Rong so easily, he would definitely be very depressed.

Xia Liang sent Xu Rong to assist the Yanzhou coalition forces in resisting Cao Cao's offensive.
