Han counter current

Finally, a strange look appeared on the young man's face, but it was not in line with Guo Tu's expectation.

"Now, do you still think that the Yuan family is facing a catastrophe?"

"Isn't it? When Yuan Shang went north, the harder he beat, the faster the Yuan family would be destroyed. Didn't Mr. see this?"

Hearing these words, the corners of Guo Tu's mouth twitched twice. This young man really couldn't stop talking, and he kept talking about the impending disaster of the Yuan family, as if he didn't know what death was.

"Old man, I am willing to listen to you."

"Sir, do you think that Yuan Shang, when did he have such ability to go north?"

"Hahaha, Chen Feng sent his elite soldiers to the north, and all the generals under his command were transferred to the grasslands. Under such circumstances, the defense in the rear was empty, and there were no generals in command.

Being attacked by Yuan Shang like this, losing the city and land is inevitable.The war in Jizhou had been going on for so long, and Chen Feng sent [-] troops to the south.

Under such circumstances, what do you think the Hejian defenders will rely on to resist Yuan Shang's army?Being defeated, that is nothing more than normal. "

With a slightly smiling face, mixed with a look of teaching the younger generation, Guo Tu smiled triumphantly while drinking tea.

"Oh, it's reasonable to put it this way. By the way, sir, who is responsible for Yuan Shang's plan to go north this time?"

This young man didn't look flustered, on the contrary, he was still calm and calm.

"This,,,,,,"

"Cao Cao's envoy must have been to Qingzhou, right?"

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"Oh, it's nothing, it's just that while Cao Cao encouraged Yuan Shang to make a northern expedition and sent a large army to attack Hejian and other places, he also advised Qingzhou soldiers not to act rashly.

Hehe, if Yuan Benchu ​​was still alive, he would probably be pissed to death. His two sons were taught to be so obedient by the enemy of life and death. "

"You, how do you know..."

Guo Tu's expression finally couldn't be calm anymore.Cao Cao's emissary did come, and he came with good intentions, but how did this young man know about it?

Chapter 439 Cao Cao's Shot 1

In Chang'an, inside Cao Cao's mansion, Cheng Yu was reporting the latest information. After winter, Cheng Yu's work became even busier.

"Yuan Shang's army has gained an absolute advantage, He Jian has been captured, and it has already reached the edge of Zhongshan.

If it wasn't for the heavy snowfall and the coldness in the north, the roads were not suitable for transporting grain and grass. I am afraid that Zhongshan might belong to him now. "

After Cheng Yu reported the information, a relaxed look appeared on his face.A mere Yuan Shang can beat Chen Feng to the point where he can't fight back, it's really fun.

"So, Chen Feng really paid a high price for the Northern Expedition. No wonder, his foundation is shallow.

After defeating the Xiongnu in such a short period of time, and then having to face Xianbei's attack, I heard that Wuhuan was also dishonest.

Hehe, this guy got a hot potato, but he couldn't eat it, and he refused to throw it away.We can only send more soldiers and horses to guard Hetao, but it directly leads to instability in the rear. "

Hearing that Chen Feng was deflated, Cao Cao was also very happy.I don't know when it started, but when he heard the word Chen Feng, he would feel inexplicably angry.

It's all right now, this guy was tricked by Yuan Shang, and he fell into such a big somersault, how can he be unhappy.

"Hmph, Yuan Shang is just an incompetent person. If the lord hadn't planned all this for him and promised to support him at the same time, I'm afraid he wouldn't dare to march."

It turned out that Yuan Shang dared to march so rampantly, and Cao Cao was behind it.When did Yuan Shang become so obedient.

"The Yuan family has always been blind and arrogant. Let them fight. The harder they fight, the faster we can win."

Cao Cao had a smug look on his face.The situation in Hebei was in his hands alone, but none of his opponents could resist.

The sense of accomplishment of controlling the overall situation and guiding the opponents to fight against each other is far more satisfying than winning a battle.

The battle in Jizhou did not stop because of the arrival of winter.Yuan Shang's soldiers and horses did not disappoint the name of Hebei's elite this time, and even snatched the land of Hejian from Huang Zhong.

This can be regarded as making Yuan Shang vent his anger.At the same time, from another perspective, Chen Feng did consume too much strength during the Northern Expedition, otherwise, how could he lose the wealthy Hejian at this time.

More than half a month later, in the northern territory, apart from Yuan Shangyao's aggressive attack on Chen Feng, there was no other situation, and even Chen Feng had no other reaction.

"My lord, so far, Chen Feng has only sent people to discuss a truce with Yuan Shang, and has no intention of counterattacking.

Then Yuan Shang neither agreed to a truce nor said to attack.For the time being, he stopped in the river, as if he was resting. "

"The land of Hejian was originally Yuan Shang's core territory. Although it was occupied by Chen Feng for a while, the local aristocratic family still belonged to Yuan Shang.

Therefore, it is not too surprising that Yuan Shang was able to achieve such a result in this attack on Hejian.Chen Feng sent people to truce, hehe, this is very interesting. "

The playful look on Cao Cao's face was even worse.To be honest, he always felt that he couldn't see through Chen Feng, so as long as it involved Chen Feng, he would pay attention.

This time, the main purpose of encouraging Yuan Shang to go north was to test Chen Feng's current confidence.If Chen Feng really consumed too much vitality because of the Northern Expedition, then he, Cao Cao, would have a chance to win Hebei.

So far, Chen Feng's performance has all proved that he is powerless and can only watch Yuan Shang counterattack Hejian and other places.

Although he has already sent Gongsun Xu to the south, but there are only more than [-] soldiers and horses. What effect will this have? Yuan Shang can mobilize tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to garrison Hejian at any time.

"Master, this is the latest news from Hebei. It is said that Chen Feng appointed Gongsun Xu as the general of a newly formed army. Currently, Gongsun Xu is recruiting troops in Zhongshan and other places."

Cheng Yu had a look of surprise on his face.Appointing Gongsun Xu as a general is nothing. After all, Gongsun Xu has the ability and qualifications, but now he wants to recruit soldiers. This is intriguing.

"So, our chance has really come."

Cao Cao nodded, and he also guessed the meaning behind it.If Chen Feng had enough troops to go south, he would definitely not just send Gongsun Xu to lead 1 people.

In order to defend the other territories in Hebei and resist Yuan Shang's attack, Gongsun Xu must have more soldiers and horses. Therefore, at this time, the only way is to recruit soldiers.

This approach is also normal.But the key point is that at this juncture, Chen Feng can only recruit new soldiers to guard the land of Hebei, which shows that Chen Feng is short of people.

That is to say, because of the previous Northern Expedition, although Chen Feng led his men to defeat the main force of the Huns, their own casualties were not small.

In addition, it is necessary to send soldiers and horses to guard the grasslands, Youzhou, Liaodong and other places also need soldiers and horses for defense.The military strength in Hebei is naturally scarce.

This also explained why Yuan Shang's army was able to counterattack and take Hejian so quickly this time, but Chen Feng didn't express it at all.

"Hehe, that is to say, after a year or two, Chen Feng couldn't breathe. Well, I will take Hebei in a year."

At this moment, Cao Cao seemed to have made up his mind.Before sending envoys to Hebei to lobby, the purpose was to instigate conflicts among the princes of Hebei, and at the same time test the background of each family.

Now, the intelligence collection is almost done, and the princes of Hebei have all been tricked by him. The opportunity to win Hebei has come.

In Qingzhou, Yuan Tan's elite soldiers are training as usual.Although the Battle of the River has nothing to do with him, this guy has always been an opportunist, and he will send troops whenever he has the right opportunity.

It's a pity that his younger brother guarded him very tightly and didn't give him this chance.In addition, Cao Cao also sent people to lobby, but the two brothers did not have a conflict.

"My lord, the envoy of the right general is asking to see you..."
