Chapter 860: Northern Expedition to Youzhou (22)

After all, Qingzhou borders Jizhou in some areas, and most of the areas are coastal areas.

The remaining part of the area is bordered by Yanzhou and Xuzhou.

And this kind of terrain is more suitable for defending after expanding a large territory.

As long as it develops for a period of time, when the time comes, if you want to attack Yanzhou, you will attack Yanzhou, and if you want to attack Xuzhou, you will attack Xuzhou.

Strategic location, very good!

And if you want to achieve this goal, you naturally can't leave the land north of the Yellow River in Yanzhou East County.

Otherwise, Zhao Feng was expanding Qingzhou, and Cao Cao and Yuan Shao directly attacked Zhao Feng's hinterland from Dongjun, so the matter of Qingzhou would naturally not be able to continue.

Zhao Feng pondered for a moment: "Since Zijing has made this suggestion. ”

"Then Zi Jing thinks, with our current situation, how should we intervene in the war between Lu Bu and Cao Cao?"

Lu Su smiled and said, "General Mao Jia, isn't he assisting Lu Bu in attacking Yanzhou?" ”

"Take Mao Jia as a breakthrough point and directly ask Lu Bu for the land north of the Yellow River in Dongjun."

"The land north of the Yellow River in Dongjun only occupies about half of Dongjun, and the area is not too large."

Zhao Feng shook his head: "Based on this alone, Lu Bu will not agree." ”

Lu Su smiled: "But Lu Bu is going to lose now." ”

"Whether Lu Bu can occupy Yanzhou or not, it's uncertain."

"Of course, in fact, we all know that Lu Bu will definitely fail in the end."

"Maybe even Lu Bu himself actually knows that he will fail in the end."

"So, while Dongjun is still in Lu Bu's hands now, Lu Bu may agree."

"After all, compared to Yanzhou being completely recaptured by Cao Cao, giving up part of the area to the lord, can also disgust Cao Cao?"

Zhao Feng shook his head: "It's because Lu Bu is going to lose." ”

"So if we put forward this condition, Lu Bu will definitely put forward other conditions."

"For example, you want us to continue to send reinforcements!"

Lu Su pondered for a moment: "If you ask for it directly, it will indeed make Lu Bu also put forward the corresponding conditions." ”

"Then in the name of helping Lu Bu, we will directly send troops to Dongjun."

"But our army only helped Lu Bu stabilize the land north of the Yellow River in Dongjun."

"In this way, the army that was originally in the land north of the Yellow River can cross the Yellow River and go to war with the combined forces of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao."

After Zhao Feng heard this, he groaned.

Lu Su's method sounds like it works.

In the name of helping Lu Bu, he first sent troops to occupy the north of the Yellow River in Dongjun.

But the downside is that this place is still Lu Bu's.

Zhao Feng feared that after LΓΌ Bu was defeated, he would return to the land north of the Yellow River in Dongjun.

Then, Lu Bu would not go to Liu Bei.

After all, for Lu Bu, it is inferior to Liu Bei, and the same is true for Zhao Feng.

But returning to the north of the Yellow River in Dongjun is not inferior.

Even if the territory is small, it can be regarded as a prince who divides a land.

And Lu Bu would take refuge in Liu Bei, and Zhao Feng couldn't explain it to Lu Su, so for a while, Zhao Feng didn't know how to tell Lu Su.

There was no reason to refuse, so Zhao Feng had to postpone the matter for the time being: "In this way, send someone to discuss with Lu Bu first." ”

"If it works, we're deciding whether to do it or not."

"Otherwise, the plan we think is perfect, and Lu Bu's side doesn't agree, and it's in vain."

Lu Su nodded: "It's okay." ”

"Let's send Master Cui to it."

"It was Master Cui who contacted Lu Bu before, and now send him there, maybe it can be done."

Zhao Feng nodded: "Okay, then you draft a document and hand it to Tian Feng." ”

"Just let Cui Yan go for a run."

Lu Su waved at Zhao Feng: "Huh! ”

After speaking, he turned around and withdrew from the Chinese army's big tent.

Wait for Lu Su to leave.

Zhao Feng looked at Xiong Da: "Send someone to quietly enter Gaoliu to meet Wang Ze." ”

"It's almost over."

Xiong Da bowed his hand to Zhao Feng: "Huh! ”

After speaking, he turned around and withdrew from the Chinese army's big tent.

Zhao Feng is deeply aware of the drawbacks of dividing troops into battles.

Since he wants to use troops to the north of the Yellow River in Dongjun, even if it is not a direct battle, Zhao Feng's war in Daijun will also come to an end.

After all, on the Dongjun side, Cao Cao, Lu Bu, and Yuan Shao were involved.

If one is not dealt with properly, it will become a battlefield over there.

When the time comes, if you really have to divide your troops to fight, Zhao Feng will definitely suffer.

You must know that Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zhan, Dong Zhuo and others did not get good results in the end because of the division of troops.

Don't be at that time, because of a small area north of the Yellow River in Dongjun, and lose the big head of Youzhou.

Following.

A soldier ran into the big tent of the Chinese army and bowed his hand to Zhao Feng: "Lord Qiqi." ”

"Wang Taishou said that the grain of the official mansion in Gaoliu City can still last for half a month."

"Many officials know about this."

"So what Wang Taishou means is that after half a month, he can lead his troops to surrender."

Zhao Feng nodded: "Got it, go down and rest." ”

The soldier bowed his hand to Zhao Feng: "Wow! ”

After speaking, he turned around and withdrew from the Chinese army's big tent.

Wang Ze's meaning, Zhao Feng is very clear.

Just don't leave a tongue for outsiders.

After all, half a month later, surrendering because of lack of food is a very normal behavior.

Of course, this is also because the two sides have negotiated.

Otherwise, Wang Ze could collect food from the families, Haoqiang, and people in Gaoliu City.

It is not a problem to collect grain for about half a month at a time, but three or five times.

After all, in Gaoyanagi's situation, Wang Ze really wanted to raise food from the family and Haoqiang, and they didn't dare not give it.

Because once he resisted openly, Wang Ze could lead his troops to destroy them for various reasons.

At most, these families and heroes are not convinced, and then secretly take refuge in Zhao Feng.

Zhao Feng felt that half a month was not a long time.

After all, it would take almost so long to send Cui Yan to talk to Lu Bu.

Time passed slowly, and half a month passed in a blink of an eye.

In the past half a month, Gongsun Zhan's Tian Kai's department, originally in the Feiru area, borrowed the Guyan Great Wall to resist the Xianbei army, but because Gongsun Zhan was too busy to take care of himself, he couldn't provide other help, so Tian Kai's department had withdrawn from Liaoxi County.

Now Liaoxi County is completely occupied by the Xianbei people.

Of course, maybe there is some agreement with Yan Rou, nominally Liaoxi County still belongs to the Han Dynasty.

It's just that it has actually become a Xianbei clan, which is a bit similar to the situation in Yanmen County.

And Tian Kai's department was very tenacious, and after returning to Youbeiping County, he used the soil of Youbeiping as a barrier to continue to resist the Xianbei army.

Zhao Feng already admired Tian Kai very much about this.

Although Tian Kai is not a well-known general, he is definitely a good general.

In this grim situation, he is still doing his best to help Gongsun Chan buy time.

It's a pity that to the west of Youbeiping is Yuyang County, which has been occupied by Liu Yu's old department.

Otherwise, it would not have appeared, Gongsun Chan did not provide Tian Kai with any materials, but Tian Kai was still helping Gongsun Chan to gain time.

Because, even if Gongsun Chan wants to support Tian Kai, he can't get by!
