However, under the current situation, the difference in the strength of the two sides seems to be too great. Chen Xi has only more than 40,000 regular troops in Yanzhou, while his opponent Tian Feng directly deployed nearly 100,000 troops in the Yanzhou area.
Fortunately, after taking over Yanzhou, a large number of construction corps and field corps were in place, and the rear defense force was still sufficient. The only gap was the front defense corps in Jizhou.
Guan Yu was sent to Jiyin. After Guo Jia and Chen arrived, there were almost 20,000 people in Jiyin, while Tian Feng on the opposite side estimated that there were about 40,000 people and more than 4,000 cavalry.
If Chen Xi had no real confidence in Guo Jia and knew that Tian Feng's tricks were not very good, he would never have allowed anyone to make such a high-risk attempt. After all, Tian Feng was too restrained in planning battles.
Similarly, Chen Xi's situation is not too good. If Guan Yu and Guo Jia go to Jiyin to deal with Tian Feng and the others, then the troops he has here will decline to a considerable extent. Maybe that guy Xu You can just smack his head and directly attack the army.
Arrive.
After Guo Jia left, Chen Xi and Zhuge Liang were the only ones left in Linyi. Originally, Gan Ning and the others showed up in Xuzhou to intimidate Yuzhou, and then quietly evacuated, leaving Yuzhou confused about the situation.
Of course, everyone knows that this little trick can't fool Zhou Yu for ten days, but they still do it just to make the Yuzhou Yuan family's judgment on the situation in Xuzhou more certain, just like now the Yuzhou Yuan family has determined that Xuzhou only has Zhang Fei's regiment, although there is
Zhou Yu gave a reasonable explanation, but the Yuan family in Yuzhou was still a little bit ready to make a move.
"Let Ziyi replace Fang Zilong and take over the defense of Dongping and Shanyang to the south of Dongping. Tiao Zilong comes to the city. We used to build a new city here as a bridgehead, and now we have to set up at the junction of Dongjun and Jizhou.
Pick up a nail." Chen Xi gave an order to Fazheng.
At present, Chen Xi has intercepted Gan Ning, Taishi Ci, Zhuge Liang, and Fazheng's troops. Before reinforcements arrive from the rear, Chen Xi does not plan to take action against Yuzhou. He will nail this nail first.
"Xingba, I'm sorry to trouble you this time. I'm going to hold your navy in this area for a while." Chen Xi explained to Gan Ning. He was very lucky that he didn't delay when Liu Bei gave him the power to mobilize troops.
Otherwise, we really won't be able to make it in time this time. The battlefield is changing rapidly. It's no joke.
"Fighting is not a fight. It would be more comfortable for me to fight Yuan Shu in Yuzhou than to fight Yuan Shao!" Gan Ning laughed wildly, not feeling dissatisfied at all because of the change in military orders.
"Order the scouts to form a team of five to expand the scope of the investigation, order Gongyou to speed up the construction of Linyi New City, and order Zhang Yan to speed up the selection of soldiers." Chen Xi continued to give orders to Fa Zheng, who saw Fa Zheng writing furiously on the paper.
When Chen Xi was thinking about how to deal with Xu You, Xu You was already having final discussions with Tian Feng. Unlike Chen Xi's idea of confronting the right with the right and using the odd to overcome the odd, Tian Feng and Xu You were coming as military advisors.
After Dongjun, he immediately made a strategy of using the right to overcome the strange.
Although Xu You didn't like Tian Feng, he also admitted that he would definitely be killed if he faced Tian Feng on the battlefield. This is not because he is not as good as Tian Feng, but because Tian Feng's spiritual talent is more important to the counselors who mainly focus on conspiracy.
He had absolute restraint, and under this kind of restraint, Xu You didn't have any good ideas.
With this as the center, Tian Feng and Xu You held the idea of killing Guo Jia from the very beginning, and then pushed Chen Xi away with their own strength.
It is said that Yanzhou's military strength is so strong this time, which is entirely due to Yuan Shao's courage. He directly opened most of Bingzhou to Lu Bu, and then transferred his infantry and cavalry from the southern part of Bingzhou. Even now, there are basically not many troops in the southern part of Bingzhou.
, as long as Lu Bu is willing, his more than 20,000 cavalry are enough to turn the current Bingzhou into chaos.
Although Chen Xi had already estimated that Yuan Shao would free up some of his troops after Lu Bu returned to the north, he did not expect that Yuan Shao would be so bold. However, after what happened, Chen Xi also understood. Even if Lu Bu returned to the north, Yuan Shao would definitely do it.
This matter of allocating troops from the southern part of the annexed state.
This is a kind of self-confidence, Yuan Shao's self-confidence in his northern Xinjiang soldiers, and after Lu Bu entered Bingzhou, Yuan Shao's actions showed his magnanimity and courage.
The tactics set by Chen Xi and Guo Jia can be said to be exactly what Tian Feng and Xu You want. However, the original tactics of Tian Feng and Xu You were based on Liu Bei's ignorance of Tian Feng's mental talent. But in this situation, who will win?
Defeat is still a matter of two opinions.
"Yuan Hao, I'll leave the Puyang area to you. I'll deal with Chen Xi." Xu You said while looking at Tian Feng and rubbing his hands.
"These are for you." Tian Feng sighed and handed a list to Xu You, "All gold and jewelry are included."
Xu You glanced at the list handed over by Tian Feng with a flash of greed in his eyes, but without any embarrassment, he directly put the list into his sleeve. For Xu You, people live to collect these rare treasures.
Speaking of which, Xu You is also a strange person. He is not very interested in beautiful women, nor is he very interested in official positions. He is just greedy for money!
Xu You likes all kinds of gold and stone seals, antique calligraphy and paintings, gold and jade jewelry, as long as they are sparkling and valuable. His life exists for these things.
When Xu You looked up at Tian Feng again, Xu You's eyes clearly showed a bit more affection. He suddenly realized that Tian Feng, a bastard, was not completely unreasonable. Many of the previous lists were treasures given to Tian Feng by Yuan Shao.
"Can you handle Chen Zichuan?" Tian Feng looked at Xu You expressionlessly and asked, not caring about Xu You's expression at all.
Tian Feng basically has no feeling for jewelry and jade. He often wears ordinary green shirts, and sometimes green linen, while Xu You wears Shu brocade, and changes it every day. They are both young.
It's almost the same, but Tian Feng standing next to Xu You is like an old farmer standing next to a noble man.
"Do you still have this?" Xu You rubbed his hands and said with eyes shining.
"Here's for you too." Tian Feng's face darkened, and he went back to the house and took out a box, opened it, and then flipped through the wrapped satin, only to see a piece of beautiful jade exuding a warm luster.
"Good thing..." Xu You's eyes were shining with jade light at this moment. As a treasure collecting enthusiast, he could see the value of this beautiful jade at a glance.
"Can this be done?" Tian Feng grabbed the box with both hands and looked at Xu You, completely ignoring Xu You's tugging and asking.
"Hurry up and let go, this is mine." Xu You said frantically.
"Can you handle Chen Zichuan?" Tian Feng looked at Xu You and asked.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Xu You felt that his mind was extremely clear, and all the ideas came to mind. Strategies came to mind one by one, and he nodded while grabbing the box containing the jade. (To be continued)
