Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 464 Women Know Women Best
"The real battlefield, if it's not in Xuzhou, where will it be?" Liu Xie's handsome face was locked with deep anxiety, facing the large sand table map in front of him with densely packed small flags, which he had seen countless times. His whole body was trembling faintly, and he couldn't help but flip the table to ruin the picture.

He knew Dong Bai well, but it was because of his understanding that he knew that the words Dong Bai said before he ran away were definitely not trying to scare him.Because, after all, Dong Bai is just a girl who is not even 20 years old. Even though she has learned too many tricks and tricks in this troubled world, her domineering since she was a child and the anger that she can't bear failure will make her words have full meaning. credibility.

But the question is, where does she plan to start?
No, or it should be said, what kind of big storm was brewing for Yuan Shao in the spring of the second year of Xingping?

In this year in history, the decadent man has reached the point of dying.The once-prominent Han Dynasty has changed beyond recognition in this year. Riots, hegemony, power seizures, plagues, famines... a series of blows have caused the emperor of the Han Dynasty to lose even a little bit of dignity.In the eyes of most of the Kanto heroes, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty is not as important as the gains and losses of one city and one place.

It is not wrong at all to say that the situation of "a land of size is not for the Han family".Even in this year, the emperor of Han, who rushed to the Guandong in a hurry, didn't even know what the Han Dynasty would look like tomorrow.

But history has changed after all, and such a scenario will definitely not happen.It's just that at this moment, Liu Xie seemed to feel the confusion and sadness when he was running eastward in history.Because, no matter how he saw through the picture, he couldn't see what Yuan Shao would do.

This year, Yuan Shao's actions were not big. Liu Xie recalled them tightly, and only remembered two things related to Yuan Shao.

The first thing is that Gongsun Zan was severely injured, and Youzhou was engaged in Xianyufu to coordinate the state soldiers, and jointly counterattacked Gongsun Zan with King Karasuma Qiao. Yuan Shao sent General Qu Yi to help, and drove Gongsun Zan into Yi Jing's lair.

Now it seems that this matter will not run according to the historical trajectory.Because Liu Yu is now a shepherd in Yongzhou, and he cooperates with Ma Chao to make small troubles with Han Sui and engage in economic construction in Yongzhou at the same time, living a very nourishing life.Since he didn't die, it was impossible for Xian Yufu to kill himself and break up with Gongsun Zan for no reason.

The second thing is that Yuan Shao planned to take advantage of the fire to rob, and wanted to control Cao Cao, who was full-winged and suddenly fell into Pingyang.

Historically, Cao Cao didn't gradually challenge Yuan Shao until he welcomed the emperor in the east and had a political brand.Before that, he had been working alone in Yanzhou as Yuan Shao's younger brother.Although he is the number one leader in the open and in the dark, he still relies on Yuan Shao all the time.

In this matter, Liu Xie was almost 100% sure that Yuan Shao would definitely do it.After all, as long as you are not blind, you can see that throwing Cao Cao, the villain, in Yanzhou can become a hard barrier for Yuan Shao in the south, but the consequences are becoming more and more prominent.Yuan Shao also knew that once Cao Cao went solo, he might create a potential opponent for himself.

Although Yuan Shao looked down on Cao Cao very much, why not do it with one less opponent and one more subordinate?

But, is the meaning of Dong Bai's words just that simple?

Impossible.

After seeing so many secrets and conspiracies in troubled times, if he believed that Yuan Shao would only want to control Cao Cao this year, he would be too naive.

"Your Majesty, could it be here in Qingzhou?" Li Yan waved his hand around the area of ​​Qingzhou, and expressed his guess: "Kong Rong in Beihai is talking about the hot people, facing the turbulent offensive of Yuan Tan, the pseudo-inspector of Qingzhou appointed by Yuan Shao. , has already been beaten and retreated steadily. If Yuan Shao completely controlled Qingzhou and even linked Xuzhou, the land of Qingxu would completely cut off Cao Cao's eastward path, and Cao Cao would definitely bow his head and proclaim himself a vassal."

Liu Xie nodded slightly, but then shook his head slightly: What Li Yan said is very reasonable, if Yuan Shao really did what he did, then he can expand his territory by one-third this year, and then use this to push forward Keeping Cao Cao in his pocket will make his power achieve a qualitative leap.

But Liu Xie didn't think that the reason why Yuan Shao would invest too much troops in Qingzhou was because it was inconsistent with Yuan Shao's grand strategy.Up until now, Gongsun Zan was still Yuan Shao's formidable enemy in the north. If Gongsun Zan had been slowed down during this period of time, he would have to work harder to deal with Gongsun Zan next year.

To the pretentious Yuan Shao, this would undoubtedly appear petty and trivial.The Yuan family, who have always been generous, generally disdain this.

"Could it be Bingzhou?" Zhao Yun also tried to speak, although most of the time, he seemed very quiet: "If Yuan Shao suppresses Heishan on a large scale this year, on the one hand, Gongsun Zan's foreign aid can be cut off; Our own forces are bordering the Han Dynasty, further exerting invisible coercion on us..."

Before Liu Xie could shake his head, Sima Yi on the side had already denied this possibility. Compared with the solemn faces of the three of them, he seemed very relaxed: "The most unlikely thing for Yuan Shao is to attack the black mountain bandits. Although this move will help him to calm Dahe However, when he sent Lu Bu to break through the Black Mountain and force the Black Mountain bandits into the Taihang Mountain, he would no longer pose too much threat to Yuan Shao. What's more, the Taihang Mountain stretches for thousands of miles and runs through Bingzhou. Even if Yuan Shao invested a hundred thousand troops, he might It took a year to not even touch a black bandit hair."

Speaking of this, Sima Yi glanced at Liu Xie leisurely, Liu Xie knew what he was thinking, waved his hand and added the rest of the words: "Advancing into Bingzhou can only create a coercive pressure on the Han Dynasty, but it has no real use. As far as Dong Bai is concerned, it is absolutely impossible for him to be just such a small thing."

"That is to say, what Yuan Shao will do next will definitely catch us off guard. At the same time, once the incident happens, it will have unforeseen consequences for the Han Dynasty. As long as we grasp this direction, our next military discussion will be able to I won't digress." Sima Yi said this point again with a smile, immediately changing the atmosphere of the military discussion.

On the other hand, Li Yan was still pretending to be dead, his face relaxed, and he asked Sima Yi with a smile: "How can you be so proficient in matters of men and women at such a young age?"

"Lord Sima, please don't underestimate women. No matter how men try to dominate, it's not just to show off in front of women. On the contrary, what women do is ultimately for men. They are born with Yin and Yang, and men and women are equally divided. If Lord Sima understands this, Then you can comprehend the secret of heaven."

Sima Yi gave a decent explanation, which made Zhao Yun beside him smile.After all, he also understood that Sima Yi's remark was full of twists and turns, all of which were actually alluding to Liu Xie's provocation.Because of this, Liu Xie, whose face was darkened, interrupted them helplessly with a breathless voice: "Okay, the military discusses important matters, which are related to the rise and fall of the Han Dynasty. You unmarried people, what do you say about men and women in front of me?" Things?"

Then, Diao Chan, who had been silent all this time, parted her vermilion lips lightly, and said two words abruptly: "Yanzhou."

"Yanzhou?" Liu Xie didn't react for a while, and asked in surprise: "What Yanzhou?"

"Yuan Shao's big move next year will definitely be in Yanzhou." After saying this, the clues in Diao Chan's mind seemed to be perfected at once, and his tone became more and more certain: "Only by doing something in Yanzhou will the Han Dynasty be defeated." To be caught off guard is to be hurt. In addition, Yuan Shao doesn’t need to invest too many resources, just like the Han Dynasty, he can use the remote control to achieve the effect of four or two.”

After these words, the fog in Liu Xie's mind seemed to be instantly dispelled by the bright sun, and he saw the situation clearly.Indeed, the overall situation of the world is now concentrated in Yanzhou and Yuzhou. This place is the place of the Fourth World War and the hub of the world.Regardless of the control of the Han Dynasty, Yuan Shao, or Lu Bu and Cao Cao who are in the quagmire, they all have a non-negligible influence on the situation in the world.

Especially for the Han Dynasty, the first task this year must be to get this done.Then we will see if Yuan Shu will risk his life to proclaim himself emperor and push Yangzhou.But without a springboard like Yuzhou, the Han Dynasty would have no hope of getting a share of the battle of beating the dog in the water.

However, how could Diao Chan, who has always been insensitive to politics, be so discerning and discern these things today?

"Because I am also a woman... only women understand women best." Diao Chan looked at Liu Xie leisurely, and there seemed to be a trace of unspeakable resentment in her eyes: "You men only think about your own happiness, but you don't think about it. Women's feelings. But we women think of you first in everything. Therefore, Dong Bai will do everything possible to sabotage your plan."

Sima Yi, Li Yan, and Zhao Yun listened to Diao Chan's meaningful words, and finally couldn't help showing a look of approval to Diao Chan: This sentence is the biggest highlight of this military discussion.

"It's just, then Dong Bai, no, it should be Yuan Shao, how will he attack Yanzhou?" Liu Xie blushed, desperately trying to change the subject.

Therefore, Diao Chan rolled her eyes even more, and said a more lethal sentence: "That's about you men, it has nothing to do with us women!"
