Chapter 76 A world where only Yuan Shao is injured

"Lü Bu is a common man, brave but not wise. It's already his limit to take Xuzhou. How could he possibly take Yanzhou?" Cao Cao said angrily, "The two states are so big. How big is Lü Bu's appetite? Isn't he afraid of eating too much?"

Xuzhou has an area of ​​800 li plain and a radius of more than 1,000 li. Yanzhou is slightly smaller, but it is also several hundred li in area.

The population is also one of the largest in Central Plains.

Its density is second only to Sizhou, where the former imperial capital Luoyang is located, but its size is many times that of Sizhou.

But it was taken by Lu Bu alone.

This is not just a simple siege, but once the digestion is complete, Lu Bu will be unstoppable!
"Prime Minister, this is entirely possible." Xun Yu stepped forward and said, "Lü Bu's banquet was not entirely a cover-up. He has obtained the loyalty of Wang Zhang, the Heavenly Master of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. He does not need to have any brains or vision, but only needs to trust Wang Zhang to occupy the two states. As far as I know, the two have a good personal relationship, and Lü Bu trusts Wang Zhang very much!"

Unlike Tao Qian, who was safe along the coast and never considered being attacked from behind, Cao Cao had arranged defenses.

Not only did he make arrangements, he also left behind his trusted adviser Cheng Yu to defend the city together with his general Li Dian.

Normally speaking, let alone Lu Bu, even Zhuge Liang wouldn't be able to be defeated easily.

In terms of martial arts, Li Dian was able to fight Zhao Yun for dozens of rounds and participated in the siege of Lu Bu. He was also well-versed in the art of war, and was a scholar, which was rare.

Paired with top strategist Cheng Yu.

Although it cannot be said to be impregnable, at least it has sufficient defenses and should not be breached.

"Wang Zhang? That's not surprising!" Cao Cao's anger suddenly disappeared, and he pushed the rice on the table back into his bowl, saying, "I know this person. He graduated from Shennong College and was personally trained by my good senior brother Jiang Cheng. He studied under Hua Tuo. Lu Bu's conquest of the two states must have been Jiang Cheng's work. Cheng Yu and Li Dian couldn't stop him!"

Wang Zhang is not a top-notch strategy man, and his martial arts skills are just average.

I know a little bit of everything, but it's just a little bit, not outstanding.

Originally, the Three Kingdoms was not his stage.

Unknown.

However, he has one advantage, which is "seriousness". He conscientiously carries out the orders given by his superiors and conscientiously implements every strategy of Jiang Cheng.

If compared with the Republic of China, it is probably at the level of "Zhao Gang".

More than what is lacking is more than what is lacking.

Belong to the backbone force.

But how many top levels are there in this world?
Among the 50 million people at the end of the Han Dynasty, Hua Xiong could be ranked in the top 100. If he were put in League of Legends, he would be the king of a region. Ordinary people could hardly match him. He is unattainable!

In terms of strategy, Liu Bei, who is like a headless fly, can also be ranked in the top 100.

You can say something like "Heroes are made by the times"!

Zhang Fei is occasionally clever, and is always at the "king" level.

It can be said that ordinary geniuses, who are one in a million, can only touch the threshold of these people. Even if they do, they are just background templates, not at the same level at all.

In this case, Wang Zhang, who is mediocre but can compete with top players, is already a genius among geniuses.

Then pair it with Lu Bu.

It's like Zhao Gang teaming up with Chu Yunfei who leads an independent regiment. If the two join forces, they can attack Taiyuan, so why can't they attack Yanzhou?
"In fact, the biggest problem is the 'Taiping Daoist'!" Guo Jia said, "As far as I know, when Jiang Cheng attacked Sizhou and Bingzhou, he didn't have to attack the city. Every time he arrived at a place, the Taiping Daoist would lead the rebellious soldiers to open the gate. They call this 'military work behind enemy lines', which is a very effective open strategy!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Cao Cao's expression changed immediately.

Strategy, not tactics.

The difference is that it is not just about one city or one place, but about the whole world.

It is an open plot, not a conspiracy. The difference is that even if you know it, you cannot effectively crack it and can only passively defend yourself. Because it is too difficult to identify, people's hearts are hidden, and you cannot know who has been secretly instigated to rebel.

"So, we have it too?" Cao Cao said.

After some investigation, Wang Zhang got the news that when Lu Bu attacked, Wang Zhang had Cheng Yu killed, and then transferred Li Dian away under his name. When Wang Zhang found out that he had been deceived, Lu Bu had already occupied most of the cities in Yanzhou.

Do you know how you did it?
It was very simple. One of the "degrees of heavenly master" that Wang Zhang took was cooking. His disciple ran a restaurant, through which he met Cheng Yu and became his cook.

When needed, secretly mix in some poison and Cheng Yu will be in trouble.

effortless.

Afterwards, another "Daoist friend" intercepted the servants from the mansion who were going to inform Li Dian, and used the Taoist friend who was good at imitation to forge Cheng Yu's notes, and falsely conveyed the imperial edict, saying that Cao Cao's front line was in a tight situation and asked Li Dian to reinforce.

This makes it easy to adjust it.

Since this matter concerns Cao Cao, how could Li Dian sit idly by even if he had doubts?

In troubled times, evidence is not important.

Generals have a high degree of autonomy and when necessary, they can give instructions with just a simple "you are fully responsible".

Since he was allowed to take advantage of the situation, what could Li Dian doubt?
As a result, Yanzhou was conquered without much fighting - this was the strategy set by Jiang Cheng, and Chen Gong was in remote control. It can be said that Cheng Yu was not fighting against Lu Bu and Wang Zhang, but against Chen Gong.

He couldn't beat this one.

"Let's eat together. After eating, those who can still move will come back with me. I want to take back Yanzhou!" said Cao Cao.

As for Liu Bei, he "sat up in shock from his dying illness" and no longer cared about recuperating.

Guan Yu had a bandage on his hand, Zhang Fei had a bandage on his head, Liu Bei had an injury on his leg, and he walked with a cane using his powerful ape-like arms, and he also got out of bed.

Accompany Tao Qian back to retake Xuzhou.

All of a sudden, the armies of the princes went in two directions, and the originally peerless generals were gone.

"No, I want to go back!"

Liu Biao withdrew his troops earlier than the other two because Tao Qian and Cao Cao had already lost their territories and had to fight back, which required more preparations, while Jingzhou was still there.

"I won't fight either!"

Sun Ce also fled with his army overnight.

Xuzhou and Yangzhou are separated by only a river. Although Lu Bu probably has no navy, he is still panicked.

They took over two states in a row in just a few days. Their ability to steal homes is simply too strong!

"Fuck, why are they all gone?"

Seeing the four vassal states hastily evacuate, Ma Teng also led his troops back to Xiliang, saying that he wanted to prevent a surprise attack. However, his return scared Liu Ni and he went back.

Because as long as Ma Teng sent troops to Hanzhong, Liu Yan would be unable to return home.

And the remaining troops are not strong.

There is a high possibility that your home will be robbed!
So in the end, some people had their homes robbed, some were afraid of having their homes robbed, and some wanted to rob other people's homes. The princes with various ulterior motives retreated one after another, leaving only Yuan Shao.

He faced Jiang Cheng alone, and his generals Yan Liang and Wen Chou were beheaded.

A world where only Yuan Shao is injured is achieved!

"It's her daughter, I'll take her!"

Looking at the wide open city gate on the opposite side, the Shennong Army did not even bother to defend and did not treat him as a human being at all, Yuan Shao, who was already a lone leader, broke out in a cold sweat at this moment.

I was sweating all over, from the soles of my feet to the top of my head.

"Everyone, how should we fight this kind of battle?"
