The Strongest Overlord of the Three Kingdoms

"It doesn't matter, as long as our army sticks to it, even if Dongyanghou is a god, he will show his flaws." Xi Zhicai said.

"Now, our army has set up two camps in the north and south in Chenliu, each with 10 people stationed, and Chenliu's garrison is also 10 people, forming a rivalry." Cao Cao said.

As for why the whole army is not allowed to enter the city, it is very simple. Is it so easy to solve the hundreds of thousands of eating and drinking?

Not to mention whether there is enough food, but firewood for cooking is a big problem.

Chenliu County is only a medium-sized city, and Cao Cao only strengthened the city walls instead of expanding the scope of the city.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, there were not many cities with a population of several 10.

Take Chang'an in the Western Han Dynasty as an example. During the reign of Emperor Ping of the Han Dynasty, the population reached more than 24.6.

This is the people who are confined to living within the city walls.

There are also many satellite cities in Chang'an, such as Changling, Anling, Yangling, Maoling, and Pingling. A mausoleum with a population of tens of thousands is under the jurisdiction of Chang'an.

Therefore, Dongyang City turned out to be born out of nowhere, really blinding the dog's eyes.

Today, Dahan is the only big city with a population of one million.

Of course, Chen Liu did not have such treatment, so Cao Cao only kept [-] defenders, and other troops were stationed outside the city.

With painstaking efforts, the defense of the camp was far inferior to that of the city.

Otherwise, how could the ancient attackers repeatedly go to the defenders' camp to call for battle, and it would be fine if they just bulldozed them.

Because it can't be done.

The camp is not just a wooden wall, it was the era of Dongying Zhancun.

Even if there is only a wooden wall, piling is also a technical job.

"My lord's arrangement is perfect." Xi Zhicai said.

"I plan to call back Yuan Rang's army." Cao Cao said.

Xiahou Dun's [-] troops are still in Jizhou.

Now Yanzhou is shouldering heavy responsibilities, and Jizhou is safe and sound. Xiahou Dun is useless in Jizhou.

"This is what it should be." Xi Zhicai agreed, and only when all the troops are in operation can they have a chance to win.

"Also, to ask Yuan Shao for reinforcements, who is more appropriate to send as an envoy?" Cao Cao said.

The reason why Cao Cao hesitated was because Yanzhou hadn't fought yet, and the situation was not yet clear.

According to Yuan Shao's character, I'm afraid he won't support him now.

Because everyone is afraid that Liu Ke will make a false shot and turn around to attack Jizhou.

"Yuan Benchu ​​has lost Yan Liang, Wen Chou, and has become less courageous. I think Zhong Yao can do it." Xi Zhicai said.

"Zhong Yao is prudent in his work. It's okay to leave it to him. At least 20 troops will be brought in." Cao Cao said.

It is basically impossible for Yuan Shao to come out in full force.

With the ability to attract 20 troops, there should be no problem in holding on.At that time, Yanzhou will have a total of 60 troops. If they still cannot defend, Cao Cao will have nothing to say.

"I don't know what moves Dongyanghou will make." Cao Cao sighed.

Xi Zhicai cupped his hands and said, "Why don't we make a move first?"

"Zhicai, what's the best strategy?" Cao Cao said.

"The Marquis of Dongyang's prestige is growing, so let's add fire to him. Marquis Dongyang has already been regarded as a rebel by the court, and now this rebel is attacking the court, it must be to ascend the throne." Xi Zhicai said.

With the position of Marquis of Dongyang, besides the throne, what else can attract him?

"This strategy is feasible!" Cao Cao said, at least it can disgust people.

Chapter 540 IX Sun Ce's Expedition

All kinds of rumors began to appear from various places, and it was only one thing to gather together.

The Marquis of Dongyang wants to become the Ninth Five-Year Supreme!

Rumors spread like a flood.

If someone said that Liu Ke's character was poor, everyone would spit on him.

However, those who spread rumors are now talking good things about Liu Ke.

It actually resonated!

Naturally, the people of Yanzhou didn't need to say anything. When they saw the storyteller's words, they immediately believed them.

Even Yangzhou soldiers were dubious.

Because in their view, Liu Ke's achievements and moral character are enough to sit in that position.

It's just that everyone didn't say it.

After all, this is an outrageous thing.

Faced with such rumors, Liu Ke has two solutions, one is to express his loyalty to the Han Dynasty, and the other is to admit it generously.

If it is the latter, there will definitely be a lot of supporters.
