However, everyone does not need to be discouraged, Liu Zhangjun's weaknesses are also obvious. One is full of crossbow arrows and poor melee combat ability, and the other is infantry-based and weak mobility. Moreover, an army like him with all-crossbow arrows has high requirements for military resources, and it is difficult to fight continuously with high intensity. Our army, whether it is cavalry or infantry, has now begun to be equipped with a small round shield, which is equipped for Liu Zhangjun's all-crossbow troops. The small round shield, wrapped in a layer of iron on the outside and elm wood on the inside, can defend against all kinds of weapons, especially crossbow arrows. Even sharp crossbow arrows are embedded in them at most, and it is difficult to penetrate them. Therefore, everyone doesn't need to talk about Liu Zhangjun to talk about the tiger's color change. ”

Guo Jia saw that everyone was so afraid of Liu Zhangjun, so he had to cheer everyone up.

"Yes, when Ang Gongzi led the tiger and leopard to ride, didn't he almost annihilate Liu Zhang's new army on the bank of the Weishui River, that is, Liu Zhang's life was great, and Pang Longqi attacked Chang'an City, which caused Zi Xuan to have to withdraw his troops. Therefore, Liu Zhang's army is not invincible, at least not in front of our army. Xun You also followed.

There were two military divisions cheering up strongly, and the faces of the generals were a little better.

When Cao Cao heard Xun You mention Cao Ang, he couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

"Zi Xuan and Yuan Chang, they have worked hard in Guanzhong all these years. In order to fight against Liu Zhang's tiger and wolf army, he also worked hard and made great contributions. Xun Yu also praised.

Cao Cao stroked his beard and nodded: "Ang'er and Mr. Yuan Chang have really worked hard, so during the New Year, the old man didn't even dare to call them back, for fear that there would be an accident in the pass." ”

Cheng Yu smiled when he heard this: "Lord, generals, in fact, you don't have to worry too much about Liu Zhang right now. Liu Zhang is now too busy to take care of himself, not only is the main force far away in the Western Regions, but his own nest is also a bunch of troubles, not only has a tense relationship with Jingzhou, but also has a force going south. Yu Du was a little confused, did Liu Zhang give too much power to his subordinates, this Wu Yi went on an expedition to Jiaozhi by himself, but his old nest Chengdu was gone. ”

"Zhongde, you still don't understand too much, Wu Yi's expedition to Jiaozhi didn't bring anyone with him at all, his garrison in Chengdu, the New Third Army didn't move, so Zhao Wei's rebellion was put down so quickly. It's likely to be a made-out game. This bureau, you and I want it to be like this, those who oppose Liu Zhang are estimated to suffer a big loss this time. Jia Xu said.

Hearing the rebellion in Chengdu, Cao Cao behaved as if it was not Liu Zhang's Chengdu, but his Chengdu, as if he was more concerned about the situation in Chengdu than Liu Zhang, especially when he heard Jia Xu say this, Cao Cao's heart was even more up and down, scratching his heart.

As early as after the news of the failure of Zhao Wei's rebellion reached Xudu, Cao Cao had been very concerned about the situation in Shuzhong, and it can be said that he should be the person who cared most about the situation in Chengdu besides Xu Shu and Liu Zhang.

After the failure of Zhao Wei's rebellion, he once contacted Cao Fang through special channels, wanting to take refuge in Xudu when necessary, but Cao Cao refused. Cao Cao's response to Zhao Wei was to do everything possible to stay in Jingzhou. Cao Cao's statement to Zhao Wei is that Cao Cao and Liu Zhang have a secret agreement, and Xu Xu can't guarantee Zhao Wei's safety, and will only be brought to justice faster, Cao Cao also responded that don't think about going to Hebei, Yuan Shao and Liu Zhang also have a secret agreement in private, and it is absolutely impossible for Zhao Wei to be taken in publicly, and it is absolutely impossible for Yuan Shao to offend Liu Zhang for him.

Cao Cao arranged Zhao Wei like this, naturally he had his own plans.

Now Cao Cao is so concerned about the situation in Chengdu, he is not worried about Liu Zhang, he is worried about his arrangement in Shuzhong.

"Okay," Cao Cao waved his hand vigorously as if he wanted to get rid of his troubles, and said, "Don't say anything about Liu Zhang, let's turn our attention back to Hebei and Yuan Shao." What big move did Yuan Shao make? ”

"Back to the lord, at the beginning of the new year, Yuan Shao sent a lot of envoys to all parties, not only the imperial court, but also Jingzhou, Jiangdong and even Liu Bei in Shuzhong, all sent envoys, and Yuan Shao has begun to order the main force in Youzhou to begin to assemble in the south. Also, Wuhuan Kebi Neng has sworn to take refuge in Yuan Shao, and will also go south from Bingzhou. Jia Xu replied.

"It seems that Yuan Ben originally wanted to have a big fight with us." Cao Cao frowned.

"At present, this is the case, but Hebei is currently very divided, Tian Feng and others are strongly opposed to Yuan Shao going south now, and Guo Tu and others insist that Yuan Shao take the opportunity to go south and level the world, and there are some wall grasses such as Feng Ji Chen Lin and others. In short, at present, Yuan Shao is in full swing preparing to go south, and on the other hand, he is still a little undecided. Jia Xu gave a detailed introduction. He is now in charge of external intelligence, and he knows the situation of the various princes best.

Cao Cao rubbed his temples, his head hurt a little, and asked, "If we start a war with Yuan Shao now, what difficulties do you think our side has?" ”

"There are still a lot of difficulties." Xun Yu spoke first: "The biggest problem is grain and grass. Our army has been fighting for many years, and has not had much rest and recuperation, and grain and grass have always been stretched. If we start a war with Hebei, we will definitely need a lot of grain and grass, and grain and grass will be the biggest problem for our army. Secondly, it is likely that other princes' forces will take advantage of the opportunity to enter and want to fish in troubled waters and participate in a piece of the pie. These princes' forces are all around us, and far away from Hebei, so the most likely thing for them is to take advantage of the chaos to attack us and flank us. ”

After Xun Yu finished speaking, Cao Cao's head hurt even more.

"Wen Ruo is right, what Wen Ruo said, let's talk about it in private in the Prime Minister's Mansion, don't take it to the court to say it, so as not to hit Xu Du's morale even more." Cao Cao rubbed his head and admonished.

"No!" Xun Yu responded.

"Actually, we can think of some ways to solve the matter of grain and grass, and we can also find ways to deal with the covetousness of the surrounding princes. The most critical issue is how to defeat Yuan Shao. Cheng Yu said.

Guo Jia disagreed: "It's not difficult to defeat Yuan Shao, but it's difficult how to defeat Yuan Shao quickly." Once the two armies are stalemate, the current problem of grain and grass, and the problem of coveting by the surrounding princes, will become our fatal problem. ”

Cao Cao thought for a moment and said, "In this way, let's talk about them one by one, and first talk about how to solve the problem of grain and grass." ”

"I think there are many ways to do it. One is borrowing, borrowing from some rich families; One is to buy, buying grain from places with surplus grain, such as Jingzhou, Yizhou and other places; Another is to consider giving more money coupons to those civil servants and servants, so that they can bring their own food, and they don't need to be given grain and grass by the court to control their food and drink. ”

Cheng Yu said three ideas in a row, obviously well thought out.

"There is something wrong with letting the people bring their own dry food to support the army, right?" Cao Cao hesitated. (To be continued.) )
