Chapter 265: Three Ways of Soldiers and Horses

Tai Shici led the troops away, and took the Jizhou army that he had practiced for many years to Youzhou, and the generals stationed in Yedu were replaced by Jiao Touch. In fact, Yanbei is still eccentric, he is worried that the third brother Yandong will not be able to do a good job of guarding Youzhou, so he let Tai Shici start to attack the Xianbei grassland from Jundu Mountain, otherwise the best place to attack is actually Wuyuan in Bingzhou.

After all, the way of the Yan clan's southward attack took too many talents, troops, and property from Youzhou, and now there are no generals who can handle it in Youzhou, but there are a lot of soldiers, but Yanbei knows very clearly that Yandong will not fight.

However, Ma Teng of Bingzhou has nothing to worry about for Yanbei, after all, the Ma clan was killed from a place like Liangzhou, even in the merger of states, Ma Teng still has the Ma clan by his side to help him with an army that can fight well, and this matter does not need to worry Yanbei. What's more, Ma Teng himself is a general, and the reason for him to be the pastor of the state is to guard a place, as long as Tai Shici goes out from Youzhou, he can share enough pressure for Ma Teng, and the rest of the matter will be much easier to solve.

What really worries Yanbei is whether he should personally lead the army to recruit Xianbei.

After thinking about it, Yanbei still gave up the idea of personally marching north, as the saying goes, if the son of a daughter does not sit in the hall, his noble status should not be easily involved, not because living in the temple for a long time has made him less bloody in his heart, but now in the Zhao Palace, he can play his role to the greatest extent, on the contrary, once he has a problem, the entire Yan clan will easily fall apart, which is something that no one dares to try easily.

Yan Bei shook his head, sighed and rubbed Yan Huan's head, "It would be nice if this kid was a little older." ”

No matter how old Yan Huan is, the Yan clan will not hang everything on his shoulders, and Yan Bei will also have more opportunities to move freely at that time. Where will it be like now, all the burdens are on him, and it will not be easy at all.

In the blink of an eye, when the battle report from the south was sent to Yanbei's desk again, it made him stunned fiercely.

"Cao Cao went to Jingzhou?" Yan Bei rubbed his temples and couldn't help but be stunned, "A few days ago, didn't Ma Chao say that he had a bloody battle with Cao Jun outside Qi County and wanted to return to the north, why did he let Cao Cao run away in a blink of an eye?" ”

Carefully flipping through the battle report, Yan Bei couldn't help but smile bitterly, Cao Cao was too smart, he actually took this opportunity to take a boat to the west, and just missed the gap when Zhang Liao led his troops to the east.

Clapping his hands, Yanbei stood up and smiled, even if Cao Cao went to Jingzhou, what could he do? Now that Jingzhou has long been busy taking care of itself, when his army enters Xiangyang from Nanyang, where else can Cao Cao run, is it possible to go to Yizhou and partner with Liu Bei?

Run! It's good to know how to run, at least you know that you can't die if you run, and knowing how to run means that the qi in your heart is weak. For a prince, especially a prince who is an enemy of Yanbei, the best situation is that he knows to run, if Cao Cao does not run, trying every means to fight the Yan army will make Yanbei feel worried, after all, a Cao Cao who is bent on winning is still a big trouble for Yanbei. But now Cao Cao is thinking about how to run to other places, which means that his threat to Yanbei is much smaller.

Cao Cao ran to Jingzhou, this is a big deal, this is related to Yuzhou has been pacified, the potential threat of Yangzhou has also lost the land bordering the enemy of the Yan family, it is difficult for them to unite again, Yangzhou that cannot be united, Yu Yanbei seems to be nothing.

Yan Bei waved a big pen, wrote the order in a blink of an eye, and sent someone to send it to the south.

"Transferred Zhang Liao to lead the army into Jiangxia and fight against Jingzhou; Diaotian Yu entered Yuzhou, and was responsible for assisting in the war between Xuzhou and Jingzhou with the general Lou Boat and the leader of Yuzhou. ”

There is no war in Xuzhou now, but Yanbei still does not dare to take Jiangdong lightly, after all, although the Sun clan did not declare war on him, but also did not surrender to him, which means that the Jiangdong Sun clan is waiting for the opportunity, whether it is waiting for the opportunity to surrender to him or waiting for the opportunity to declare war on him, this is not a good thing, and at this time, the most powerful naval army of the Yan clan is stationed in the river, which can play the best role.

On the one hand, the water division blockaded Jingnan, and on the other hand, the water division shocked Jiangdong. At this moment, no one's water army in the world can be stronger than his Yan army!

At this time, Yanbei couldn't help but feel Qi Shixie's foresight, as early as last year, he sent his eldest son to Zhao with gifts, so that Jiaozhou was independent of the disputes of the princes of the Central Plains.

The blockade of the Great River by the Yan Clan's naval forces meant that they were also able to border Jiaozhou, and the two sides could then attack and defend each other against Jingzhou and Yizhou.

On the map spread out in front of Yan Bei, his palm brushed from the northeast to the topographic map representing the world, and now all his enemies are in the southwest, and the rest is just a small place like Jiangdong.

With the support of Tian Yu down the river, Jiangdong is not a big problem for Xu Huang. Of course, this kind of not a big problem does not refer to the southern attack, but to say that it is not a big problem to defend across the river, after all, the natural danger of the river is two-way, and if Xu Huang is allowed to go south to fight Jiangdong at this moment, it will definitely be too powerful, but if the Sun family dares to cross the river to fight Xu Huang, Yanbei can ensure that they can't eat and go around.

The risk of the Yan Clan's battlefield cutting off their back path at any time is no joke.

Cao Cao entered Jingzhou, in Yanbei's opinion, things are good and bad, the good is naturally that Yan's power can be used more concentrated, only need to attack Jingzhou with all his strength, there is Zhang Liao in the east, Gao Lan, Zhang Jaw, Zhang Xiu in the north, Tian Yu's sailors in the south, it is easy to swallow the land of Jingzhou one bite at a time under the encroachment on three sides, and Liu Biao has not much left to do.

But the disadvantages are also obvious, Liu Bei, Cao Cao, and Liu Biao will also unload all the past disputes between each other at this time, and in order to survive and work together to deal with him, the forces of the three princes are gathered together, which is more terrible than the rebellion of more than a dozen Liu princes in the past.

In the past, this kind of joint operation was actually nothing to worry about, after all, it was not difficult to divide and unite vertically and horizontally, but these three people were different. Liu Biao doesn't need to say it, the clan relatives of the Han family, no matter how difficult it was, they didn't fall to the Yan family, and now that there is a new force around them, I'm afraid it's even more impossible; Although Liu Bei's status is humble, many years ago he had the spirit of giving up on the world's major events, and it is precisely because of this that Yan Bei looks up to him, and now it is impossible to persuade him to surrender; Cao Cao, the only one who is not surnamed Liu, is a person with a strong mind, and it is difficult to change his mind.

"Send another letter to inform Ma Chao, saying that his request Yan has approved, let him take the soldiers and horses into Hanzhong through Sizhou, and launch Qiang Di to attack Liu Bei!"
