The historical process advanced, and the battle of Guandu began.

The Battle of Guandu was one of the most important battles in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao launched a decisive battle in Guandu, which lasted more than a year and finally divided the victory. The two sides involved in the war were the strongest princes at that time, and as long as they achieved a decisive victory in this battle, half of the country would be in their pockets, and from then on, they would become the most powerful contenders for hegemony in the world.

Not one of them!

For such an important battle, Zhao Long, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and others contacted Ah Niu offline as soon as possible. In the eyes of Zhao Long and others, Ah Niu and Cao Cao have been allies for many years, and they also have a promise to help Cao Cao fight against Yuan Shao, after learning the news, they are bound to return to the game soon, and everyone can fight side by side together, however, what they didn't expect was that a certain city lord did not return to the game immediately, and it was not until the fifteen-day battle preparation period was about to expire that Ah Niu appeared in a hurry.

"Ha, I'm here." A certain city lord is playing haha, and the mood seems to be quite good.

Zong Wuyan glared angrily at a certain city lord, and Zhao Long, who had always "respected his wife", immediately acted for the tiger, and a few taels of frost could be scraped off his face. Feifei sat on the side and squeezed his eyebrows, seemingly a little gloating, but more glad that Ah Niu had rushed back in time. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had no affection, urging Ah Niu to choose a camp.

"One last chance to choose a faction, there are two hours left."

Ah Niu raised his eyebrows: "Oh, did you choose?" ”

A group of people almost vomited blood, Zong Wuyan and Zhao Long were murderous, gritted their teeth and said, "They are all waiting for someone!" ”

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sighed: "It's best for us to advance and retreat together, but you are not here, Zhao Yun and they insist on waiting for you to come back, what to say, Fengxiang is also a princely force, it doesn't matter whether you choose a camp or not." Anyway, whether he chooses or not, he will help Cao Cao fight this battle, and Feng Xiang does not expect to reap the benefits by participating in the battle...... Brother Niu, we know the truth, it doesn't matter if Feng Xiang chooses the camp or not, but it is still very important to us grass people, and we have discussed it. If you don't come back before the countdown ends, we'll have to pick a faction to join. ”

A certain city lord finally understood a little bit why Zong Wuyan and the others had a murderous aura on them, and they didn't like it. Having said that, Zhao Yun told the truth, and if you want to blame, you can only blame yourself for returning late.

Ah Niu smiled dryly: "Two hours, enough." What are your plans? ”

Feifei said: "There is no consensus yet, so it is difficult to choose." ”

"Huh?" Ah Niu was stunned. With his relationship with Cao Cao, Feng Xiang must be on Cao Cao's side, according to common sense, it should be easy for these friends to make a choice, just join Cao Cao's camp directly, but there is no unanimous opinion until now, which is obviously not normal. The occurrence of such a situation can only be explained. The shape of the current game is probably not as simple as it seems.

"What's going on now? Could it be that Yuan Shao is excellent? ”

Everyone nodded in unison. The expression is more solemn.

Zhao Long then briefly shared the information he had gathered. Of course, it's mainly for Ah Niu, who is late, and everyone else knows.

"The game process has been advanced for three years, and the battle of Guandu has suddenly begun, and there is news that the plot has been promoted. It is likely that the city lord of Jiangyi injured Brother Xiaoma, and the person who spread the news was a close friend of Brother Xiaoma...... Well, that's not important, I'll focus on the current comparison of the strength of the two camps. and troop deployment.

After the system was maintained, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's troop deployment was automatically adjusted in place.

Yuan Shao selected 400,000 elite soldiers and 50,000 horses from the four states of Youhe and Jiqing, and marched south to attack Xudu. Many of Cao Cao's subordinates thought that Yuan's army was unstoppable, but with Guo Jiaxian's ten victories and ten defeats in front of him, Cao Cao was determined to mobilize all his forces, totaling 80,000 troops, to resist Yuan Shao's attack. 400,000 vs 80,000, Cao Cao is at an absolute disadvantage, which is why many generals under Cao Cao's account think that they are "invincible".

In order to gain the strategic initiative, Cao Cao did not divide his troops to deploy defenses along the south bank of the Yellow River, but concentrated his forces to hold the key passes, focus on fortification, and wait for work. He sent Zang Ba to deploy defenses in Jinan County, Qingzhou, to contain Yuan Tan's forces in Pingyuan and Le'an, and consolidate his right flank; ordered Yu Bantun to guard Yanjin and assist Liu Yan, the Taishou of Dongjun, who was guarding Baima, to prevent Yuan's army from crossing the river and driving south; Cao Cao led his troops into Liyang; The main force of Cao's army fortified at Guandu to resist the frontal attack of Yuan's army; In addition, Cao Cao sent Hedong people to pacify Guanzhong, and from then on, Guanzhong was controlled by the imperial court, and Cao Cao also sent people to win over Liangzhou and stabilize the left flank; Nanyang Zhang Xiu had also surrendered earlier, and the south of Xuchang was worry-free. At this point, Cao Cao did everything he could, and went all out to fight Yuan Shao. ”

Ah Niu nodded silently.

After all, it is a direct adjustment of the system, and Cao Cao's response is almost the same as in history, and the biggest difference may be on Qingzhou's side. Originally, Zang Ba was supposed to occupy Qi State, Beihai and Le'an, but in the game, because Yuan Tan grabbed Le'an Country in advance, and Feng Xiang had Qi State and Donglai, Zang Ba's pressure was greatly reduced, and he only needed to hold Jinan.

Ah Niu also had questions: "Yuan Shao sent 400,000 troops?" I remember that he didn't have so many soldiers in history! ”

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said in a sullen voice: "There are 400,000, only 100,000 in history, and the game is four times that in history.

First, Yuan Shao defeated Gongsun Chan in advance. In history, Gongsun Chan was defeated in 199, and in the game, he was destroyed in 192, and Yuan Shao occupied Youzhou seven years ahead of schedule; Second, it is related to the fat dragon baby. The Montenegrin Army, which has been playing tricks with Yuan Shao in Jizhou in history, as well as other small Yellow Turban Army, were all taken north by him to Youzhou, and finally settled in Liaodong, which objectively helped Yuan Shao solve the problem of his henchmen. The disappearance of the Black Mountain Army, and even before the demise of Gongsun Zhan, Yuan Shao had at least seven more years of recuperation, and it was not surprising that his strength had increased several times compared to history.

In fact, Cao Cao's strength is also stronger than in history.

In the game, Cao Cao got Jinan and Beihai in Qingzhou, and Yuan Shu was eliminated in advance, Cao Cao took advantage of it more or less, don't look at his 80,000 troops compared to Yuan Shao, he could only make up 20,000 soldiers during the battle of Guandu in history......

After all, it's a game, and a lot of things have changed because of the player. ”

A certain city lord was puzzled: "In this way, the strength of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao is 4 times that of history, and the comparison of strength has not changed dramatically, why do everyone generally look down on Cao Cao?" In the battle of Guandu, I must fight side by side with Cao Cao, plus Fengxiang City, can't we make everyone more optimistic? ”

Fei Fei said with a sad face: "If it weren't for Brother Niu, Cao Cao would hardly see a chance to win." ”

"Ah, how is that possible! Could it be that something is wrong with the historical figures of the two families? ”

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said: "There is no big difference in terms of historical figures, except for those who died early or were subdued by players, most of the other historical figures were directly adjusted in place.

On Yuan Shao's side, Zhang Jaw and Gao Lan in the Four Courtyard Pillars of Hebei, one in the invincible Dongzi's Bo Ancient City, and the other in my Huoyun City, were all subdued by the players, and they were damaged before the war.

But Yuan Shao also had a windfall.

Somehow, Guan Yu did not surrender to Han or Cao as in the romance, but defected to Yuan Shao's account with Liu Bei and Zhang Fei. In the romance, Yuan Shao's two fierce generals, Yan Liang and Wen Chou, both died under Guan Yu's knife, but now, Guan Yu is in Yuan Shao's camp, and Yan Liang and Wen Chou will definitely not die at his hands. Based on this alone, Yuan Shao equalized the loss of Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran being subdued by the players, and the most important thing is that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were also added to the two fierce generals! Compared with the two, Cao Cao still suffered. ”

In fact, Ju Yi was also in Yuan Shao's camp, but he was killed by Yuan Shao before the Battle of Guandu, and he served Fengxiang City, which had no impact on Yuan Shaofang's strength in this battle.

Knowing that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were not separated from Liu Bei, but worked together under Yuan Shao's account, Rao is a cow also felt a little big. This is not simply two more generals, in this way, Yan Liang and Wen Chou have also become variables, coming and going, Yuan Shao is cheap, no wonder everyone is not optimistic about Cao Cao.

After thinking for a moment, Ah Niu said, "Well, it's indeed a bit troublesome...... However, I Feng Xiang dare not boast about anything else, there are still a lot of fierce people who can fight, there are several king-level fierce generals, and several special troops are experienced in a hundred battles. I don't dare to say anything else, I still have some confidence in containing Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Yan Liang and Wen Chou.

Feng Xiang will definitely help Cao Cao, and the Liaodong Army of the Fat Dragon Baby will definitely stand on Cao Cao's side; Brother Wu has Gao Lan, Wuyan has Qu Chen, Zilong will be the number one gang in the world, all of them have a certain weight, we join forces, Cao Cao's shape doesn't seem to be so bad, right? ”

Everyone smiled wryly.

Zhao Long glanced at a certain city lord and said dissatisfiedly: "Some people don't want to forge ahead, and they have been away for too long, and their thinking is still stuck in a few years ago, and they don't know the current situation at all. In other words, when you just retired, we were really entangled enough, but now it is different from the past, there are many bulls among the players, and the difference in strength between adventure players and lord players is not as obvious as before, and it is no longer the era when Feng Xiang can cover the sky with one hand......"

Ah Niu didn't think it was wrong, he smiled, and said, "Nonsense, I often come back!" Don't blame myself for not being modest, I really haven't heard of any player who is stronger than me Feng Xiang. ”

Zhao Long said: "Feng Xiang is still the strongest among the player forces, I don't deny this, but in recent years, Feng Xiang has focused on its own development, and its external expansion is limited to Wa Island. Not to mention anything else, Kakaluka's five lakes, the inhuman with light clouds, the invincible Dongzi's Bogu, and Fengxiang's strength gap are narrowing.

In addition, Brother Xiaoma's Jiangyi City, the world's first reliance, Sanyang City, and Yang Weili's Shiling City, although they failed to become a prince, they have also developed rapidly over the years, and their strength has expanded extremely considerably. However, it's the adventurer who has improved the fastest, and it's not the same level you were at when you left a few years ago, for example: I have enough medicine to be able to defeat a normal territory NPC soldier single-handedly! Players who are better equipped will not even be killed by the princes' soldiers. The current war mode is very different from before......" (to be continued, the novel is better and faster!)
