Han counter current

Although Cao Jun occupied Xuzhou, he has not been fully accepted by the local family and people so far. As a result, Cao Jun has become an outsider.

"You bastard, a group of bandits dared to attack my camp. They are looking for death. Come on, send an order, return to the division two thousand, and go to defeat these bandits."

Xiahoudun was in a bad mood when he received the secret report from the rear. It is said that Huluo Pingyang was bullied by dogs, but he Xiahoudun thought that before the time when Huluo Pingyang was coming, these gangsters would dare to trouble him.

According to his opinion, as long as the two thousand elites on his side return, those bandits will be defeated.It's just that Xiahou Dun didn't seem to realize who was behind the bandits' rebellion.

The Qingzhou Army was still active in Langya. Xiahou Dun led [-] elites in pursuit, but before the battle was halfway through, news came back from the rear that the [-] elites sent back by Xiahou Dun were actually attacked by the bandits and suffered heavy casualties. .

At this point, Xiahoudun realized that things were abnormal. Compared with defeating the Qingzhou army, he cared more about the land and various supplies in the rear. For this reason, Xiahoudun had to immediately shrink his troops and return to Pengcheng.

"Bastard, bastard, a dog who hides his head and shows his tail, come out and have a duel with me if you have the guts..."

Inside the big tent, Xiahoudun was angry. Just two days after he led the army back, there was news that Qingzhou was going south again. intrusion.

When Xiahoudun led his army back, more than ten thousand Qingzhou troops immediately went south to fight.Cao Jun's hard-won achievements were wiped out in an instant, and Langya was all owned by the Qingzhou Army.

A month later, Xiahoudun led the troops to drive all the bandits back to the forest again, but he got the news that the Qingzhou Army was approaching Pengcheng. For this reason, he had to lead the remaining [-] elites back to Pengcheng to fight.

Xiahou Dun, who was caught in a two-front battle situation, was now in a state of distress. The successive battles consumed most of the grain in Xuzhou and delayed the local farming work.

As a result, Xiahou Dun lost his troops and lost his generals, and in the end he got nothing. On the contrary, he pushed the situation in Xuzhou to a worse situation.

At this time, Cao Zhang, who was in the north of Yanzhou, was not much better.The Jizhou army harassed the northern border defense of Yanzhou many times, and even a small group of elites rushed into Yanzhou to plunder.

He, Cao Zhang, wanted to go north and strangle the enemy, but Cao Cao forbade him to go north, and he was only allowed to stick to the city. At the same time, Cao Cao was constantly sending troops north to deter the enemy.

"Chen Feng's intentions are obvious. He just doesn't want our army to recover. This man's vicious mind is rare in the world. If he can't stop his plan as soon as possible, my land in the Central Plains will only get worse and worse."

In the living room, Cao Cao summoned Cheng Yu and Xun Yu to discuss major issues. Guo Jia was still seriously ill. Lord.

"My lord, Liu Bei in the south is gradually devouring the entire territory of Jingzhou. Our army has not sent troops to stop it until now. Chen Feng in the north is ready to move. If things go on like this, our army is very likely to fall into a situation of fighting on both sides."

Xun Yu has been staying at the rear, in charge of logistics and civil affairs, and is more concerned about the affairs in the south.Since Liu Bei became the new lord of Jingzhou, the south has not been peaceful, and now he is very worried about being attacked in the Central Plains.

"Hehehe, little Liu Bei, there is nothing to worry about. As long as I can deal with Chen Feng, I can go south to deal with him in two or three years. Similarly, if Chen Feng dominates the north and takes the Central Plains, he can also deal with him in a very short period of time." Solve Liu Bei.

I know this truth, Chen Feng knows it, and Liu Bei himself knows it, so I don't worry about things in the south now.Chen Feng is our life and death enemy and should not be underestimated. "

Compared with Xun Yu's vision, Cao Cao's vision is obviously much wider. The mind of a hero in troubled times is very comparable. Liu Bei must go north to the Central Plains, and he must want to grab the results of the battle.

But in the current situation, if Liu Bei really went north, it would be his own destruction.Based on Cao Cao's understanding of Liu Bei, he would definitely not do such a stupid thing.

"Since that's the case, my lord, my Central Plains is still plagued by plague and famine. In two or three years, our army's vitality cannot be recovered, and Chen Feng has taken a fancy to this.

In the past two years, wars continued in the north, and Hebei also suffered a lot of losses. It stands to reason that Chen Feng would not be able to recover in a short period of time, let alone go south to fight.

According to the previous information, Chen Feng actually sent troops northward in the autumn and winter of last year, went deep into the grasslands to plunder, and obtained a large number of slaves, livestock and other spoils of war by extremely bloody means.

In other words, Chen Feng used this extreme method to recover a certain strength in a short period of time, and at the same time trained a group of elite soldiers.It is estimated that this is why he dared to go south to trouble our army.

For the current plan, only by hurting Chen Feng and scaring him can we gain a respite in the Central Plains, otherwise, our army's northern direction will always be attacked by enemy troops. "

Cheng Yu's in charge of intelligence knew more information. He knew why Chen Feng dared to go south, so he insisted on sending troops to fight, so as to solve the immediate troubles.

Chapter 707 Enemy Weary Tactics 2

In the living room, the three of Cao Cao had different expressions, and they were all thinking about different problems.Xun Yu was thinking about food, supplies and logistics, Cheng Yu was concerned about intelligence from the north, and Cao Cao was thinking about what Chen Feng would do next.

After a long time, Cao Cao was the first to break the silence. How to deal with the enemy in the north, he already had a rough plan in his mind, and the premise of completing this plan was to have enough food and grass as a support.

This kind of warfare in the era of cold weapons is ultimately limited by productivity. The three armies have not moved, and food and grass go first. This sentence is not unreasonable.

"How much food and supplies can our army transport to the northern front?"

Cao Cao's question was obviously aimed at Xun Yu. Things related to food, grass and supplies are not trivial. It seems that Cao Cao is determined to go north.

"If it is collected from various places and transported to the north, it can raise food and grass for an army of [-] for three months. After the autumn harvest, the crisis of our army's food and grass can be alleviated."

"[-] is enough, let's raise food and grass for the [-] army."

"However, my lord, once the war starts, it will not only be as simple as the food and grass for the [-] troops. When the war escalates, if more soldiers and horses are needed on the front line, more food and grass will be needed.

Before the autumn harvest, our army will not be able to get more food and grass, unless, unless the major families in the Central Plains can donate food and grass, otherwise, the frontline soldiers will have to fight hungry. "

Xun Yu was full of helplessness. To solve the problems in front of him, especially the problems on Chen Feng's side, starting a war was naturally the simplest and most direct way, but if the food and grass were not gathered together, this war could not start.

"The old man will come forward in person once to see if those aristocratic families still sell my face. The grain and grass must be collected and sent envoys to Jingzhou and Jiangdong to buy grain and grass from them.

In addition, you can tell them about Chen Feng's evil and strength, and let them weigh their abilities.Now, Chen Feng is personally deploying in Jizhou, and dispatching so many soldiers and horses, hehe, he obviously wants to make our army tired.

If he succeeds, our army's combat effectiveness will only get weaker and weaker, so this battle must be started.As long as there is nothing wrong with Chang'an and Jingzhou, there will be no major disturbances in the Central Plains. "

Regarding these little tricks played by Chen Feng, Cao Cao knew very well in his heart that the strategy of exhausting the enemy is not wise at all, and what Chen Feng did was also blatant, so it is reasonable for Cao Cao to be able to see through.

"My lord, according to my subordinates, our army has to beware of threats from Bingzhou. When Chen Feng fought in Jizhou, he was able to mobilize the forces of Jizhou, Qingzhou, Youzhou, and Bingzhou.

Its power is faintly a shadow of Yuan Shaoxiong's dominance of Hebei, and the south of Bingzhou Shangdang directly threatened Sili, Jizhou was adjacent to Yanzhou, threatening Chenliu, and Qingzhou even bordered Xuzhou.

Although this is Chen Feng's weakness, once he is allowed to operate, it will naturally become a weakness of our army. Once the war escalates, it is very likely that the front line will be expanded. Therefore, the subordinates believe that it is necessary to merge regions and states. "

"Bingzhou, if Gongsun Xu is still in Bingzhou, I would be a little worried, but now, Gongsun Xu has not been relegated to that mountain corner, and Bingzhou is only fighting in Gaolan, and he is still in Taiyuan.

Hmph, order Li Dian to lead [-] troops, and [-] young and strong to go to Chaoge to farm. I wonder if he dares to send troops to Bingzhou. As for Jizhou and Qingzhou, the old man is planning to go there to meet Chen Feng, so there is no problem. big. "

Among Chen Feng's generals, who is handsome, who is strong, and who is ruthless, Cao Cao knows very well, after all, he also has corresponding information on his side.

Gongsun Xu is now arranged to farm in the Western Qiang side, and Zhang Liao went to Mobei to train troops, so the two majors were arranged so far away. This has to be said to be a mistake by Chen Feng.

Perhaps, Chen Feng himself understood that this was a wrong decision, but he had to do it.Gongsun Xu has been in the limelight these years, and the last time he fought against the coalition forces of the Western Regions, he was even more prestigious. In addition, he has done many evil things, and Chen Feng can't keep him.

As for Zhang Liao, although he has always been conscientious and conscientious, but the last battle to protect the United States did not deserve much credit. After all, the enemy was defeated by Gongsun Xu, and Gongsun Yue was assassinated under Zhang Liao's nose. , Say you can believe it.

In addition, the situation in Mobei is complicated. It was guarded by Wei Yue before, but now that Wei Yue is gone, the situation is even worse. Chen Feng really needs a capable subordinate to guard it.

Sitting in Jizhou this time, Chen Feng gradually recruited his generals Zhang Xiu, Zhang He, Zhao Yun and others, vaguely, as if he wanted to brew a big battle.

After Cao Cao got the information, he quickly deduced that there were not many generals left by Chen Feng in Chang'an and Xiliang, let alone those who were good at attacking and commanding, so he was so relieved.

However, even if he is such a hero like Cao Cao, even though he has been on the battlefield for so many years, this time, he still underestimated Chen Feng's determination. Since he decided to go north to fight against Chen Feng, he has embarked on a road of no return.

Two months later, when all parts of the world were busy farming, the confrontation between Chen Feng and Cao Cao continued in the northern area of ​​Yanzhou. During this time, both sides increased tens of thousands of troops.

Cao Cao also came up with the idea of ​​using the confrontation period to train elite soldiers. After all, during the previous Northern Expedition, due to a series of reasons, he lost more than half of his elite soldiers.

Next, if he wants to defeat Chen Feng, he must have more elites.And Chen Feng, whenever he needed to lose a large number of troops, he would always send slave troops to the front.

It can be said that Chen Feng has been using the lives of slaves to consume the elite of Cao's army.Chen Feng would be willing to exchange three or five slaves for one elite Cao army, but Cao Cao dared not be so generous.
