    The major events in the world are determined by a game of chess, and the victory or defeat must be kept in mind.

    Even though you have overwhelming power, don¡¯t underestimate the enemy when a lion fights a rabbit!

    "Haha! - Thief Cao had no choice but to abandon the city and flee, which really made me feel bad Send an order to the three armies to cross the Yellow River and approach Guandu. They must capture Thief Cao alive and humiliate him!"

    After receiving the battle report, Yuan Shao was ecstatic and in high spirits. Cao's army was defeated across the board. Baima and Yanjin were in his hands. The door to the south had been opened. As long as he broke through the Guandu defense line, he could go straight to Xuchang and sweep across  The land of the Central Plains!

    Yuan Shao has already thought about it. After capturing Xuchang, he will hold a grand entrance ceremony. The emperor will come out of the palace to welcome him, and hundreds of officials will be waiting at the city gate. As for Cao Cao, let him lead his horse and let the world see it.  Look, who is the unparalleled hero Haha!

    "Cao's thieves abandoned the city and left, but their strength was not lost. There are still hundreds of thousands of troops. My lord must not underestimate the enemy. At this time, the time is not yet ripe to cross the river south. It is better to stay on the north bank of the Yellow River and send a group of troops to test it before deciding to march.  Or not!¡±

    Tian Feng stood up and spoke out again. Based on his understanding of Cao Cao's character, this traitor would not give up easily. Giving up the Baima and Yanjin front lines was just a trick of "retreating to advance" to lure the enemy.  Just go deep!

    From an overall strategic point of view, Yuan's army is stationed on the north bank of the Yellow River. It can advance and retreat freely, is flexible, and can attack everywhere, making Cao's army unable to defend itself. With Liyang City as its base camp, it is easy to replenish ordnance, food and grass, and can be consumed for a long time.  Take the initiative in war!

    On the other hand, once hundreds of thousands of people cross the Yellow River, the strategic advantage will no longer exist. There is the natural barrier of Guandu in front, the Yellow River blocks behind, Jishui is on the left, and the chasm is on the right. The terrain is surrounded by water on all sides, which is equivalent to entering a natural world.  In the encirclement, if something unexpected happens, you won't be able to find a way out even if you want to run!

    Besides, crossing the Yellow River would lengthen the supply line. The ordnance, grain and grass in the rear had to be transported across the Yellow River by ship to supply hundreds of thousands of horses. Not only did it take time and manpower, but it was also easy for the enemy to sneak attack.  Once the food route is cut off, the army will be defeated without a fight!

    It is precisely because of the above two points that Tian Feng opposed the large-scale march south. It is best to send a vanguard force to attack the Guandu defense line and test the strength of Cao's army. If he wins, it will not be too late for the whole army to follow up. If he is defeated, it will not be too late.  It won't hurt the fundamentals, and the army can be organized to continue fighting, consuming the opponent alive!

    "Mr. Yuan Hao must be worrying too much. Cao's army has been defeated across the board and has no power to fight back. If we don't take advantage of the victory and pursue it, will we allow Cao's thieves to cultivate their strength and make a comeback?"

    If it was a few days ago, Yuan Shao would have listened to some suggestions, but now, with the army conquering the two cities of Baima and Yanjin, it is inevitable that he will feel proud, and there will be different opinions!

    At the same time, Yuan Shao began to feel dissatisfied. Tian Feng was loyal and good at strategizing, and he was a talented king. However, his character was too stubborn. He always contradicted him directly and did not save any face.  In the past, for the sake of the overall situation, I reluctantly tolerated it. Now that Cao's army has collapsed across the board and he is sure of victory, there is no need to tolerate it anymore, right?

    However, it is not easy to drive away a meritorious person. At least you need an excuse. Thinking of this, Yuan Shao turned his eyes, looking for the person who can best understand his own thoughts and has the least moral bottom line Xu  You!

    "My lord is wise and powerful, and he is fighting for the country. Now that the battle has been won, how can he hesitate to move forward? As long as the army crosses the Yellow River to show the world's situation, all the officials in the court and the princes will definitely respond one after another. Cao Cao is worried about the thieves.  Is there any reason to be invincible in the face of foreign troubles?

    As for the logistics of food and grass, there is no need to worry too much. It is already the middle of winter, and the Yellow River is about to freeze. At that time, thousands of miles of waves will make the road smooth, and people, horses, and vehicles can come and go freely. Why worry about the lack of food and grass supply?  Well, if Mr. Yuan Hao is worried, how about sitting in Liyang City and supervising the logistics?  "

    Xu You was greedy and greedy, he only loved yellow and white things, and his character was even worse. However, he was also a wise man, and what he said made some sense. As long as Yuan Jun went south in a large scale, he would become a winner.  The waiting princes will definitely respond to this gesture, especially Jiangdong-Sun Ce. As long as he sends troops to Jianghuai, Cao's army will undoubtedly be defeated under the attack from the north and the south!

    "Liyang is the foundation of our army and must be protected by important ministers. Among all the counselors, there is no one more suitable than Mr. Yuan Hao. Please go there immediately!"

    According to Xu You¡¯s suggestion, Yuan Shao sent Tian Feng to Liyang with a wave of his hand and put him under the command of his second son, Yuan Xi. Without this ¡®fly¡¯ in front of him, he could live a clean life for a few days!

      "I obey my orders! Go to Liyang immediately to supervise the matters of food, grass and ordnance!"

    Now that things have come to a point, it is no longer possible to leave. Tian Feng has a look of despair on his face. Since ancient times, if a king doubts his minister, he must die. With this attitude of the lord, is his life in danger?

    After the order was issued, in order to avoid complications, Yuan Shao turned around and left the tent, and the other civil and military officials also retreated one after another There were only two people left in the tent, Tian Feng, who was slumped on the ground, with a look of unbearable dismay on his face.  !

    "Brother Yuan Hao, don't worry. Let's go to Liyang to rest for a few days. As soon as we find an opportunity, Brother Yu will advise the lord and let you return to the camp and join the military plane. What happened today has really wronged you!"

    Jushou took a few steps forward and slowly helped Tian Feng up. The two had similar personalities and were both loyal and loyal people. After getting along for many years, they had already become brothers!

    "Haha! It's not a big deal to give in to my own heart. It's a pity that there are hundreds of thousands of athletes in Hebei. After crossing the Yellow River this time, I wonder how many of them can return to their hometown alive?"

    Tian Feng shook his head with a wry smile. He was loyal, but he was suspected, and he was full of strategies, and he could not be reused. It was so sad at this point in his life Comparing Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, Xun Yu and others, maybe he chose the wrong lord?

    ?¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    The Yellow River is thousands of miles long, with nine twists and turns and turbulent waves. Yuan's army has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, plus the accompanying auxiliary soldiers and civilians, the total number exceeds one million. As for the vehicles, horses, grain, grass, ordnance they are countless.  How easy is it to get through it?

    Therefore, Yuan Shao ordered people to collect large and small ships, built more than a dozen pontoon bridges, and transported people and horses day and night. It took half a month to finally cross the Yellow River!

    Before a large army goes to war, it is common practice for military strategists to establish camps as the foundation. Yuan Jun set up more than forty camps, with banners all over the field and forests of swords and guns, which were more than ninety miles long. Their momentum was like snakes on the Changshan Mountain, connected from front to back.  , echoing from beginning to end, the forward troops arrived at Guandu, making an offensive posture!

    Although Yuan Shao drove away Tian Feng, he did not ignore the problem of grain roads. The route to transport grain and grass from the north bank of the Yellow River was too long and unsafe. It was best to choose a new grain field on the south bank and have access to it at any time to supply the army. This  This is the perfect solution!

    So, Yuan Shao summoned a group of civil and military officials, put out a cowhide map, and repeatedly selected a location. This place must be dangerous and defensible, accessible by road, not far from the base camp, and convenient for transportation. After repeated discussions, everyone  , and found several local guides to ask about the topography and topography, and finally selected a grain harvesting area - Wuchao!

    Wuchao, also known as Wuchao Ze, is located at the intersection of Jishui River and Pushui River. It is surrounded by swamps for dozens of miles. It is soaked in water and covered with rotten mud. It is unfathomable. Once people and horses fall into it, they will disappear in an instant.  Wutong is a famous deserted land, and all traders and travelers take a detour!

    However, God's creation is so miraculous that it leaves a little bit of life in the land of death. There is a small mountain in the swamp, with an area of ??ten miles, called 'Crow Mountain'. The terrain is high, the soil is hard, and you can live.  There is also a small road to communicate with the outside world. It can be said that one man is in charge and no one can open it!

    Such a wonderful place is perfect for hoarding food, grass, and ordnance. As long as you build some warehouses in Crow Mountain, send a heavy army to guard it, build barriers, and block the passages, the enemy will not be able to make a sneak attack even if they have thousands of troops.  No matter how many people come here, they will only fall into the swamp and turn into skeletons and bones!

    "Ordnance, food and grass are the lifeblood of the army, and they must not be lost. Generals, who is willing to take on the important task of leading troops to guard Wuchao?"

    Yuan Shao sent craftsmen and civilians to Wuchao to build warehouses, and at the same time he selected a guard general. This person must be brave and resourceful, with high loyalty and a strong sense of responsibility. Who is more suitable?

    "I am a poor general, but I am willing to lead a group of troops to Wuchao to protect the grain road and ensure that the army's logistics are flawless!"

    Before he finished speaking, a general walked out of the queue, it was Jiang Qi who had just achieved military exploits!

    In the previous Battle of Baima, Ma Yan and Zhang Kai surrendered to Cao Ying and became traitors. Zhang He and Gao Lan lost their troops and were beaten with military sticks. The stars of Hebei generals were dim. Only Jiang Qi's army rose up and led his troops to capture Baima City in one fell swoop.  He reversed the situation, and his reputation as brave and good at fighting shocked the entire army, and he was known as 'Hebei's No. 1 General!'  ¡¯

    "Haha! The general is unparalleled in his loyalty and bravery, and I am greatly relieved But, there is no use of a bull's-eye to kill a chicken. It is better for the general to take charge of the troops and charge into the battle!"

    Yuan Shao is very happy that his beloved general can take the initiative to ask for help. However, good steel is used on the blade, and it is too much of a waste of talent for the first general under his command to guard the food and grass. It is better to use another person!

    After another discussion, Yuan Shao finally decided to dispatch General Chun Yuqiong to lead 30,000 elite troops to garrison Wuchao to ensure that the army's food routes were unobstructed!

    The camp was set up and there was enough food and grass. The next step was to march into Guandu for the final decisive battle with Cao Cao. Yuan Shao felt proud. If everything went well, he would be able to enter Xuchang in two or three months  Overlord of the Central Plains, who else could I do?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)After another discussion, Yuan Shao finally decided to dispatch General Chun Yuqiong to lead 30,000 elite troops to garrison Wuchao to ensure that the army's food routes were unobstructed!
