S-level auxiliary system: All the heroes of the ages are for my own use

After hearing this, several people said to the military advisor Xun Yu:

"Military commander, don't worry, there is no one in Xuzhou who can fight. A group of native chickens and dogs can take Xuzhou easily!"

Cao Cao listened to the words of several people, and said with some dissatisfaction:

"Keep in mind what the military advisor said, and don't lose your troops because of carelessness. As long as Xuzhou is captured this time, we will go to Youzhou to meet Gongsun Zan next."

Youzhou is not too far from Yanzhou, and there are no cities in between. As long as Youzhou, Xuzhou and Yanzhou are united, it will occupy an important road.

If Liu Xuan wants to enter Guanzhong, he can only pass through his own territory. At that time, he will be able to know exactly how many troops he has, including who leads them.

Of course, Cao Cao didn't want to be the first to start a war with Liu Xuan, but he was going to negotiate terms with Liu Xuan, as long as he passed by his territory, he would trade some special food seeds from Liu Xuan.

Cao Cao's idea is very good, but he never thought that Liu Xuan would be led by his nose, but now that Xuzhou and Youzhou have not fallen into Cao Cao's hands, he dare not make an absolute comment.

Several people nodded obediently, knowing that they should not delay the plan of the lord and the military adviser because of him, Cao Cao gave them a few more instructions, and asked the four of them to go down to gather troops and prepare to set off for Xuzhou.

After the four of them withdrew, they summoned an army of 20 troops, and after being sent off by Cao Cao and Xun Yu, they left Yanzhou and headed for Xuzhou.

As soon as Cao Cao sent troops here, Liu Xuan, who was far away in Liaodong, had already got the news that Cao Cao was going to attack Xuzhou again, so he called Liu Bowen, Cheng Yu, Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai and Xu Shu to discuss.

Liu Xuan sat behind the table and said to several people:

"Let a few of you come here this time because I have something to tell you."

Several people nodded, only Liu Bowen said:

"My lord, just ask me if you have something to do."

Liu Xuan nodded and said:

"I received the news that Cao Cao has sent 20 troops to attack Xuzhou. What do you think?"

After listening to Liu Bowen and the others, they all felt that something was wrong. Liu Bowen said:

"My lord, the first time Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou was to avenge his father, this time he attacked Xuzhou probably because Yuan Shao of Jizhou had already obtained Yizhou, so he was so anxious to attack Xuzhou."

Liu Xuan nodded and said:

"Bowen is right. Yuan Shao was the first to stand up, causing all the ambitious princes in the world to move around, and Cao Cao is a person who refuses to settle down. His ambition is not small, but Cao Cao still has some ideas. You Didn't say it."

As soon as Liu Bowen heard that his guess was not completely correct, and he also knew the current situation in the world, just as he was about to continue speaking, he was interrupted by a voice.

I only saw Guo Jia on the side, holding the flagon, and said to Liu Xuan:

"My lord's worry is probably because he is afraid that Cao Cao will take Xuzhou and want to take Youzhou, right?"

Liu Xuan looked at this often drunk guy with satisfaction, and said:

"Fengxiao, let's talk about it."

Guo Jia continued unhurriedly:

"As far as Jia knows, if Cao Cao takes Xuzhou and then Youzhou, the lord's attack on Jingzhou will be blocked, and our army can only pass through Cao Cao's territory. In this way, Cao Cao will definitely use this as a threat to fight with the lord. Negotiate terms."

Liu Xuan nodded, knowing that Guo Jia was not an ordinary person, but he didn't expect Guo Jia to figure out people's thoughts so accurately.Liu Xuan signaled Guo Jia to continue talking.

Seeing that the lord agreed with his statement, Guo Jia continued to speak:

"This Cao Cao wants nothing more than my crop seeds from Liaodong and the method of building the city wall. He will definitely ask us for these two things because our army passes by his territory, so as to strengthen his own strength!"

Liu Xuan said:

"That's right, even if the same thing falls into Cao Cao's hands, I'm afraid Cao Cao will become more and more powerful. With Cao Cao's wisdom and Xun Yu, they will definitely escape from his grasp. If he is allowed to grow bigger, I'm afraid they will be killed in the future." There's a bad fight ahead of us."

After listening to the conversation between the two, Liu Bowen thought of something and asked:

"Does the lord mean that he wants to snatch Xuzhou as well? He is not going to give up Xuzhou to Cao Cao!"

Liu Xuan nodded and said:

"Xuzhou is an important military town, and in the plain area, it is a battleground for military strategists. If Xuzhou is taken, and Gao Chong who has been in Runan has been added, it will be able to connect with Liaodong and separate the north and south. Wouldn’t it be great if you could attack that side whenever you wanted to?”

When everyone heard that the lord wanted to fight from the east to the west, to separate the north and the south, so that they, the princes, had no time to take care of it. Even if they wanted to unite, they probably had more than enough energy.

Everyone was impressed by the wisdom of their lord.

Everyone also agreed with his master's strategy, so Guo Jia looked at his master and asked openly:

"My lord, do you mean to attack Xuzhou first, and then attack Jingzhou?"

Liu Xuan nodded and said to everyone:

"That's right, the previous plan was to let the Second Army, Cunxiao and Zilong lead troops to attack Jingzhou, but the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. I didn't expect Cao Cao to be so impatient, he wanted to take Xuzhou, and he also wanted to use Xuzhou Come check and balance our Liaodong!"

Liu Xuan took a sip of tea and continued:

"Then we can only change our plan and take Xuzhou first, and then it will not be too late to attack Jingzhou."

Bowen Liu said:

"When does my lord plan to mobilize troops?"

Liu Xuan thought for a while and said:

"Tomorrow we will send troops to Xuzhou. This time Cao Cao sent a total of four generals, namely Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Xia Houdun, and Xia Houyuan. These are Cao Cao's confidant generals. If they go late, I am afraid that Xuzhou will not be able to resist for a long time. day."

After hearing this, Liu Bowen said:

"What the lord is worried about is that since Liu Bei, Yun Chang and Yide left Xuzhou, I am afraid that Xuzhou will no longer be able to resist Cao Cao's army. Xuzhou has no famous generals to guard Xuzhou, and it really can't last long."

Everyone knows that Xuzhou only has soldiers, and there are no generals. If the three Liu Bei brothers were still in Xuzhou, even if Cao Cao sent 20 troops, he would not be able to easily capture Xuzhou.

Liu Xuan opened his mouth and said to everyone:

"This time I am going to let Lu Bu lead the troops. If Xuzhou is captured, I will let Zhang Liao and Gao Shun guard Xuzhou. These two are the talents of generals. If they are trained, they will definitely be the rare handsome talents in Liaodong in the future!"

Liu Xuan knew Zhang Liao's ability, whether it was leading troops or strategizing, he was a top existence in the Three Kingdoms period.
