Three Kingdoms: The rebellious son of the Cao family married the queen at the beginning

"Since the military advisers are here, you should predict the battle in Yuzhou!"

Cao Shuo looked at several military advisers meaningfully. He separated Liu Bei from Gongsun Zan before, mainly because he was worried that Gongsun Zan's power would grow.

However, now that Liu Bei has gone to Yuzhou, Gongsun Zan is nothing to worry about. The first collision between the two armies is the best explanation.

Xi Zhicai said: "Liu Bei has always had great ambitions, and he is assisted by two powerful generals, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. According to the recent report of Jin Yiwei, Liu Bei is recruiting troops and talents in Yuzhou. There are Runan Li Tong, Xu Jing, Lu Fan, Chen Dao agrees."

"Guan Yu got the help of Zhao Yan and Du Xi in Yingchuan. It can be said that he has soared into the sky. Once Yuzhou launches an attack on Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu is bound to retreat steadily!"

Xun You was surprised and said: "The four famous scholars in Yingchuan, Xin, Chen, Du, and Zhao. Among them, Xin refers to Xin Pi, Chen refers to Chen Qun, Du refers to Du Xi, and Zhao refers to Zhao Yan."

"The lord has Xinpi and Chen Qun, and Liu Bei has Du Xi and Zhao Yan. Du Xi has Wen Cui's knowledge, Zhao Yan has fortitude, Du Xi is good at strategy, and Zhao Yan is good at internal affairs. The two of them are one inside and one outside. Liu Bei is no longer to be underestimated." watch for."

Xun Yu said: "Although Liu Bei's strength has greatly increased, the six counties of Runan County, Yingchuan County, Chen State, Liang State, Pei State, and Qiao County in Yuzhou are only Yingchuan, Chen State, and the west of Runan Gushi. , the rest of the territory is in the hands of Cao Cao and Yuan Shu."

"The strength of the two is definitely not comparable to that of Liu Bei. If Liu Bei wants to develop, he will definitely fight against the two. Cao Cao and Yuan Shu will definitely not sit back and watch Liu Bei grow bigger."

Ju Shou said: "If you are right, Liu Bei's illness in Yuzhou is a minor illness. If he is allowed to help Gongsun in Youzhou, it will be a serious problem for our army."

"I don't think there is anything wrong with the previous lord's arrangement. Liu Bei will not leave Youzhou unless he gets the corresponding benefits. But at that time, he only saw the huge benefits of Yuzhou, but did not see the potential crisis in Yuzhou."

Cao Shuo said: "Runan is the base of the Yuan family, and Qiao County is the back garden of the Cao family. If Liu Bei wants to develop in Yuzhou, it is far from enough to rely on bravery and strategy."

Most of Yuzhou is a plain, suffering from wars all year round, and there are not many mineral resources. Although the grain output is considerable, it lacks horses and weapons.

As long as he cuts off Liu Bei's horse supply, it is impossible for Liu Bei to survive in Yuzhou for long with only infantry.

Xi Zhicai said: "Liu Bei had conflicts with Yuan Shu in Yuzhou. When the two met in Suanzao, they had a grudge. The subordinates predicted that within a month, Liu Bei would attack Yuan Shu."

Xun You said: "Yuan Shu has many generals and Liu Bei has full wings. This will be a battle between dragons and tigers!"

Cao Shuo said: "In this dragon-tiger fight, Liu Bei's chances of winning are still not great. Yuan Shu's cavalry has as many as [-], while Liu Bei has only a few thousand. In the plains, it is very disadvantageous."

Xi Zhicai suggested: "My lord, Liu Bei has a very close relationship with Gongsun Zan. You need to be careful that Gongsun Zan provides Liu Bei with war horses."

Cao Shuo waved his hand and said, "The reason I set up a naval force in Bohai County is to cut off Gongsun Zan's sea trade route. Previously, Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu competed for Youzhou and would not sell war horses to others, but now Gongsun Zan has controlled Youzhou. For the most part, he has the strength to trade with other guys."

Xun You said, "My lord, Gongsun Du, the prefect of Liaodong, has a close relationship with Xu Rong. It was Xu Rong who recommended Gongsun Du to be the prefect of Liaodong. Why don't you send someone to Liaodong to form an alliance with him and attack Gongsun Zan from three sides?"

Xi Zhicai said: "According to the Jinyiwei line report, Lu Bu dispatched Chen Gong, Hao Meng, Song Xian, and Zhang Yang to attack Dai County from Banshi. If Gongsun Du was to hold back on the eastern front, Gongsun Zan would have no time to recuperate."

Cao Shuo thought about it, Gongsun Du and Gongsun Zan were at odds, maybe this could really happen.

"Zhicai, send someone to inform Xu Rong to find a reliable person to go to Liaodong. I can provide him with stirrups, silk, grain and other supplies in exchange for his war horses and iron ore."

"promise!"

"Wen Ruo, you recruit another [-] soldiers and hand them over to Lu Yu to expand our navy. I want all the horses in Youzhou to pass through Jizhou!"

"promise!"

"Zhicai, how is Zhou Yu's affairs going?"

Earlier, Cao Shuo asked Xi Zhicai to be in Yuzhou, and asked Jin Yiwei to pretend to be Liu Bei's soldiers and horses, and intercept Zhou Yu on the road.

"My lord, Zhou Yu hasn't left Jizhou yet!"

"what?"

Cao Shuo was stunned. Sun Ce was in the middle of employing someone. Isn't this guy in a hurry to go back?Had he discovered his intentions?
"Master, do you want to send someone to drive him out of Jizhou?"

"This……"

Cao Shuo was also in a bit of a dilemma. If he was forcibly detained in Jizhou, it might chill the hearts of the world's celebrities, saying that Cao Shuo would use force if he couldn't get it. This would make some neutral talents stay away from him.

Xi Zhicai suggested: "Why don't you arrest him for spying on the military situation."

"Has he been in contact with anyone else now?"

"No, I'm just in Xindu station, drinking and shopping every day!"

"It's really free!"

In fact, what Cao Shuo didn't know was that the reason why Zhou Yu didn't leave Jizhou was because he met a girl he liked in the city.

That day he pretended to be angry and left Cao's mansion. On the street, he met two girls. The second girl was beautiful, lively and cute, with a baby face, which made him miss him day and night.

The two girls went into a shop, bought some things, and left in a carriage, leaving him no chance to strike up a conversation.

At that time, he followed a certain distance, trying to find out where the second daughter lived, but unfortunately, he lost his way due to the many turns and turns.

Since then, he has lived in the inn next to the shop, hoping to see her beauty again.

"Report, there is an urgent report from Leling, General Zhao asks the lord for help!"

Cao Shuo and all the counselors looked surprised, Zhao Yun went with [-] Xuanjia troops, and he still needed help?
"Where is General Zhao now?"

"My lord, General Zhao was besieged in Leling by Yuan Shao's generals Wen Chou, Tai Shici, and Guan Hai!"

"how is this possible!"

Cao Shuo didn't expect that Zhao Yun's Xuanjia army could not resist Yuan Shao's army.

"My lord, Yuan Shao suddenly has an extra cavalry force, about [-]!"

"Where did he get the cavalry?"

Cao Shuo was terrified, did this guy borrow it from Yuan Shu?

"This subordinate doesn't know that General Zhao's [-] Xuanjia troops and Yuan Shao's General Wen Chou were in the second battle. They were flanked by tens of thousands of cavalry from behind. Leling."

Then he told Cao Shuo how Zhao Yun went in and out of the enemy army and rescued the besieged Xuanjia army.

Xun You said: "Master, we need to send reinforcements there as soon as possible, otherwise, the water village in Bohai Sea may be discovered by the other party."

"Send someone to inform Xu Chu and Dian Wei to count the [-] Xuanjia troops and come with me to support Leling."
