As a descendant, although Jiang Ting understands the process of the Battle of Guandu fairly well, he also understands that if he wants to follow the historical template of Lao Cao, it will definitely not work.

After all, there are only these two major forces in this world, Yuan Shao will no longer have any worries, and most likely Xu You will not surrender to the enemy easily.

Jiang Ting can only decide the winner after having a real match with Yuan Shao in his own way.

"Soldiers, Yuan Benchu ​​has assembled an army of 11 at Guandu, and the other four prefectures also have more than [-] garrison troops guarding the rear. What we have to do this time is not only to defeat Yuan Shao's main force head-on on the front of Guandu. We also need to expand the battlefield, so that Yuan Shao's territory will fully blossom, and he will not be able to take care of himself!"

Jiang Ting stood on the high platform with a calm demeanor, and shouted loudly: "Sun Ce listens to the order!"

"The end is here!"

"I command you to set off immediately with the Qinglong army, take the white horse from the right wing, occupy Puyang, and attack Yuantan in Qingzhou!"

"The last general takes orders!"

"Gan Ning listens!"

"The end is here!"

"Let you take the Xuanwu army across Hanoi and take Bingzhou directly!"

"Order!"

"Yue Fei obey the order!"

"The end is here!"

"I command you to bring the White Tiger Army and Yuan Shao's main force to a decisive battle at Guandu. I will go with you and personally sit in town. If you don't break the city of Ye, you will never give up!"

"The last will obey!"

This is the advantage of sufficient troops. Jiang Ting can extend the front line without any scruples and go to war in an all-round way, but Yuan Shao, who has few soldiers, can only be tired of parrying and dare not easily divide his troops to take risks.

But Jiang Ting's action was more to put pressure on Yuan Shao directly. If any one of the three fronts was in a hurry, Yuan Shao might not be able to sleep.

At the same time, it can effectively attack Yuan Jun's morale.

"Wenhe, is my arrangement okay?"

Seeing the army start to set off in an orderly manner, Jiang Ting also asked Jia Xu who was beside him with a chuckle.

He has also experienced many big battles now, and he is no longer the battlefield rookie he was back then.

"It's not inappropriate for Your Majesty to use troops in an upright manner. However, the battlefield is changing rapidly, and the situation will never go according to our assumptions. I dare to ask Your Majesty three questions."

Jia Xu cupped her hand with a smile, and Jiang Ting knew that his technique seemed to be good, but in reality it might be full of loopholes, so Jia Xu was ready to intervene in preaching.

"Please teach me sir!"

Jiang Ting is also a bachelor. He knows that he uses soldiers. So far, he can only be regarded as a pass at most, but if he really wants to compare with this group of think tanks, there is still a lot of gap.

"General Sun Ce is so brave that he took Qingzhou to the north. It must be like a broken bamboo. But General Sun's army is full of cavalry, and the army goes deep alone. How should we provide food and wages in the rear? If Yuan Shao sent an elite army to cut off my rear during the battle, what should my lord do? ?”

"This……"

Jiang Ting's smiling face froze, and then he began to think seriously, yes, capturing the white horse is tantamount to putting Sun Ce in the enemy's rear. Yuan Shao can send an army from Guandu to attack the Qinglong army from the tail at any time, no matter how bad it is, it will be easy Cutting off Jiang Ting's food and grass supply, Sun Ce will be alone and helpless at that time. Once the siege fails, he will be in a desperate situation!
"Understood, Qingzhou can be captured, but I should send another army to set up an ambush on the white horse. In this way, the Qinglong army will not only be the siege army, but also become the bait to lure the enemy!"

Looking at Jiang Ting's shining eyes, Jia Xu nodded with a smile: "The second question is that General Gan Ning forcibly crossed Hanoi and attacked Bingzhou. The river will be blocked, and we will be alone. At that time, we will lose contact. Adding troops to set up an ambush, delaying time, and releasing spy information to disturb the morale of the Xuanwu army, how will the lord resolve it at that time?"

"hiss……"

As soon as this remark came out, Jiang Ting instantly realized the seriousness of the problem. Once Gan Ning went to Hanoi, he would be surrounded by Yuan Shao's forces. At that time, the entire Xuanwu army would be blind.

If Yuan Shao releases some false information, for example, Jiang Ting lost at Guandu, he Yuan Shao has already won a complete victory, etc. Even if the high-level officials like Gan Ning don't believe it, the soldiers below are not that smart. If the attack is impossible, the soldiers have neither supplies nor foreign aid, and their morale will continue to decline. At that time, whether the Xuanwu Army can maintain its combat power is another matter!
What's more, after Gan Ning crossed the river, the most deadly point was that he was worse than Sun Ce. There was no supply of food and grass at all, so he could only choose a quick battle!

"Here, I only considered that it would be effortless for an army of [-] to take down Bingzhou, which was guarded by more than [-] soldiers and horses. I ignored that there is no shortage of insightful people in Yuan Shao's army. Already have a countermeasure?"

"I don't need to bother. Zhou Gongjin's strategy is not inferior to mine. Since he dares to take it, he is naturally sure."

Looking at Jia Xu's smiling expression, Jiang Ting suddenly felt ashamed. He was only thinking about countermeasures, but ignored Zhou Yu, a fierce person...

However, he also understands what Jia Xu means. A commander cannot place all his hopes on his subordinates. This is a big taboo for him. What if Zhou Yu doesn't have a good countermeasure?
Wouldn't the Xuanwu Army be miserable?

He should take all hidden dangers into consideration. Of course, the existence of counselors is to check for leaks and fill in gaps. When the lord's decision is wrong, their purpose is to fill in the loopholes.

So when Jiang Ting gave the order, neither Jia Xu nor Zhou Yu said anything.

They are obviously deliberately cultivating Jiang Ting's military capabilities.

"What about the last question?"

Up to now, Jiang Ting, who has been hit hard, has resigned to his fate. There is still a long way to go, and there are still too many things to learn!
"The last question, Yuan Shao stationed troops at Guandu and defended against danger. He made it clear that he would fight a protracted war with us. I wonder if my lord has a way to deal with it?"

"It's simple, I just need to pin him down. When Bofu and Xingba take over the two prefectures of Qinghe and surround them on three sides, he, Yuan Shao, will have no hope of turning around."

Without hesitation, Jiang Ting thought that the reason why he would stretch the battle line was because of this idea from the beginning.

Otherwise, there is no need for him to do so.

"My lord's plan is not a problem, but my lord should consider that Yuan Shao's rear can continuously provide them with food and grass, but our food and grass are not enough to support us in a protracted war. If the other fronts fail to achieve results , didn’t the lord himself put himself in a desperate situation?”

"This... well..."

The corner of Jiang Ting's mouth twitched. Of course he understood what Jia Xu meant. To be handsome is to take all possibilities into consideration, instead of taking it for granted that whatever you think will happen, even if the possibility is not great, he It is tantamount to committing another military taboo.

"I, I have been taught!"

Convinced, Jiang Ting bowed to Jia Xu. Professionals are professional. Fortunately, Jiang Ting is not purely new now. What Jia Xu can teach Jiang Ting will naturally become more and more profound. .

So although Jiang Ting was hit, he knew better that from now on, what he had to learn from Jia Xu was the real skill.
