    As a result, in the midst of this kind of agitated public sentiment and the wave of people calling for war, Liu Bin's newly issued few insignificant orders did not cause any waves, and were successfully promulgated and implemented.

    Liu Bin was surprised and excited when he received this feedback.  Liu Bin really didn't expect that so many people would care about his own safety and feel angry about it.

    In order not to let the hopes of these people who care about themselves be disappointed.  Liu Bin called Guo Jiaxun and asked: "Fengxiao, can the strategy you formulated that day to inflame public anger and attack the east and attack the west be executed smoothly now?"

    Guo Jia replied: "Please rest assured, my lord. All combat plans are action plans carefully formulated by the staff and have been distributed to all generals. We are just waiting for General Zhao Yun to practice troops and horses in Guandu and conquer Cao Cao's territory."  After all the troops are attracted, we can easily go south from Qingzhou and teach Cao Cao a lesson."

    Liu Bin smiled and nodded.

    At this time, Zhao Yun's 100,000 new soldiers had already arrived in Guandu.  And a hundred miles of joint camp was set up next to Gan Ning's navy stronghold.

    Cao Ying on the south bank of Guandu inspected the horses and hurriedly reported to the generals of Guandu - Wen Chou and Yan Liang: "General, there are soldiers and horses from Youzhou arriving on the north bank of Guandu."

    Yan Liang asked hurriedly: "How many more troops did they increase? Have they ever found out?"

    "General. We only know that he has set up a joint camp for more than a hundred miles. The camp is densely covered with banners. The shouts of killing are shaking the sky. We have never ascertained the specific strength of his troops."

    "Get lost, you useless thing." Wen Chou shouted angrily.

    Yan Liang advised: "Brother, don't be angry. Now that the Yellow River has been blocked by Gan Ning's navy, our detective horses cannot cross the river to investigate. It's good to know this. There is no need to blame them. It's still you and me.  Climb up and take a look."

    Wen Choutou agreed.

    Yan Liang and Wen Chou then climbed up to watch across the river.  At this sight, the two of them took a breath of air.  I saw countless banners at the Baili camp opposite.  The figure shakes.  It can be heard across the river.

    Wen Chou said in horror: "Brother, how come there are so many soldiers and horses on the other side suddenly? Look at this. There are not even five or six million soldiers and horses. Don't they want to come and attack us again?"

    Yan Liang sighed: "I'm afraid that's it. A few days ago, I heard rumors that the Commander-in-Chief of Youzhou was kidnapped by assassins sent by our Prime Minister. I didn't believe it at the time, but it seemed like this was the answer.  "

    Wen Chou said worriedly: "Brother, if that's the case, these soldiers and horses must have come from Youzhou Taiwei to raise troops for revenge. They have 600,000 to 700,000 soldiers and horses here, but we only have 200,000 soldiers and horses. We  How are they their opponents?"

    Yan Liang said calmly: "It doesn't matter. We have placed these Thunderbolt Chariots on countless high platforms along the coast. They can control their ferries from landing. And the fortresses and fortresses that Mr. Ziyuan built here are also quite powerful.  Strong. In addition to our 200,000 elite soldiers, let alone 6 to 7 million soldiers and horses, even if they come with a million soldiers, we can still let them all sink into the Yellow River. It's just a pity.  Mr. Ziyuan can¡¯t see this scene.¡±

    Yan Liang was originally very confident, but when he thought of the deceased Xu You, he couldn't help but sigh.

    Wen Chou is also a person who values ??friendship and justice.  Hearing Yan Liang sighing at Xu You, he couldn't help but said angrily: "Mr. Ziyuan was very talented and accomplished great things, but he lost his life in the hands of that stupid man. God is really jealous of talents. Sooner or later, I will kill this beast to repay Mr. Ziyuan for his many achievements."  A life-saving grace."

    Yan Liang quickly stopped him and said, "Dear brother, don't say stupid things. Although Mr. Ziyuan is highly intelligent and has extraordinary achievements, he is aloof and harsh in speech. He is also a little greedy for money. This cannot be faked. Therefore, it is inevitable that he will be killed.  . Moreover, the reckless man who killed Mr. Ziyuan was the prime minister¡¯s favorite general. He was highly regarded by the prime minister. If we kill him, it will be no different than treason. You and I have received great favor from the prime minister. How can we not distinguish between public and private matters?  Never mention it again!"

    Wen Chou silently nodded in agreement.

    Yan Liang sighed.  He changed the topic and said: "Although we are not afraid of Liu Bin and his army coming, this matter is not trivial after all. We should still report it to the Prime Minister. Let the Prime Minister be prepared."

    Wen Chou nodded in agreement again.

    So after Yan Liang returned to camp.  In addition to ordering active preparations for war, he also wrote a detailed battle report about Liu Bin's reinforcement of troops on the north bank of Guandu, and the revenge Liu Bin wanted to carry out because he was kidnapped.  Send someone to deliver it to Cao Cao at high speed.

    Waiting for Cao Cao to receive the battle report from Yan Liang.  It was learned that Liu Bin was about to send 600,000 to 700,000 troops to attack Guandu, and was kidnapped by Cao Cao in revenge.  Most of the civil and military officials were frightened and uneasy.  Some civil and military officials even complained in their hearts. Cao Cao was well fed and had nothing to do. Why did he kidnap Liu Bin?  Now it is possible??It caused all the trouble.

    But at this time of sadness.  Cao Cao suddenly laughed.

    The civil and military officials on both sides were all shocked.  Prime Minister, what happened?  Could it be that because he knew that Liu Bin had sent so many soldiers and horses to come for revenge, he was scared crazy?  If even Prime Minister Cao is crazy.  What should we do?  It's better to think of getting away quickly.

    At this time, loyal people on both sides asked: "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, Liu Bin is about to send troops to attack us. We may not be able to defeat us with all our troops and horses. The civil and military forces are frightened. Why are you laughing, Prime Minister?"

    Cao Cao laughed and said: "I laugh at Liu Bin, although he knows how to use troops, but he is sparse. He has the reputation of being the best army in the world, but he does not understand the weather and geography. He can only achieve our hegemony and reputation."

    All the civil and military officials were puzzled.  I don¡¯t know where Cao Cao got such confidence.  You must know that people like you were defeated by Liu Bin, and it was not just once or twice.  These people all know the strength of Liu Bin's soldiers and horses.  Even if his lord Cao Cao wanted to improve his morale by belittling his enemies, there was no need to be so exaggerated.

    As soon as Cao Cao saw the appearance of this group of people, he knew what they were thinking.  So he smiled and said: "Don't believe me. Let me tell you what you know. You must know that agriculture is the foundation of a country. If the food is sufficient, the people will be stable and the soldiers will have peace of mind. Therefore, military and horse expeditions are mostly after the autumn harvest. And now is the time.  At the spring equinox, the farming season is busy. The benevolent Lord should encourage farmers and mulberry trees at this time and stop fighting. But Liu Bin did not care about the importance at this time. For his fictitious desolate affairs, he sent out large armies in such a way that wasted people and money.  . At this time, if they miss the busy farming season, their autumn grain production will inevitably decrease. The common people, officers and soldiers will definitely complain. This can be said to be ignorant of the timing."

    When all the civil and military officers under Cao Cao heard this, they all nodded!  Yes, what the Prime Minister said makes sense.  Everyone's morale was greatly boosted.

    And Cao Cao went on to say: "Then Liu Bin doesn't know the weather. He just wants to attack us. But he is not easy to attack, but he doesn't know how to adapt and comes to attack our Guandu. Our Guandu was not well prepared before and the defense was sparse.  Forget it. But now my Guandu has both the natural danger of the Yellow River and the strong city walls. They are like iron barrels. With 200,000 elite soldiers defending it, it can defeat an enemy ten times stronger. But Liu Bin only sent six to seventy  Thousands of soldiers and horses came to attack there. Wouldn't that just scratch our itch? I'm afraid that all his 600,000 to 700,000 soldiers and horses would sink into the Yellow River, and they would not be able to attack the bank of the Yellow River. In this case, wouldn't Liu Bin be like this?  Don¡¯t you know the location?¡±

    All the civil and military officials were impressed.  Confidence soared.

    But Cao Cao said: "Liu Bin does not know the weather and geography, and he will be defeated sooner or later. We don't need to pay attention to him. We can just let Liu Bin consume our troops in Guandu. We only need to take care of our internal affairs and spring plowing."  . When the autumn harvest comes, one will wax and wane and the other will grow. Liu Bin¡¯s troops are exhausted and his horses are trapped, but we have well-equipped troops and food. We can defeat Liu Bin in one fell swoop and achieve our hegemony."

    After hearing this, all the civil and military officials under Cao Cao were even more delighted.  The attack on Liu Bin was ignored.

    Cao Cao immediately gave Yan Liang an eight-character reply: Stay safe and secure, and it is strictly forbidden to attack.

    Yan Liang understands this.

    And Zhao Yun had been training his troops and horses on the north bank of the Yellow River for many days, but did not see any troop movements on Yan Liang's side, so he felt that this strategy of attracting the opponent's troops might not be achieved.  So he invited Gan Ning and said, "General Gan. Your lord ordered us to train our troops and horses here to attract Cao Cao's main force. But in the past few days, there has been no movement of troops and horses on the opposite side. It seems that if we can't give them some practical  I'm afraid they won't fall for the trap. I wonder if General Gan has the guts to help me take the initiative?"

    Zhao Yun is really brave. He has grown up with his lord since he was a child. He is indeed somewhat like his lord.  Gan Ning couldn't help but admire him secretly.

    You must know that although Zhao Yun also led 100,000 troops here.  But Zhao Yun's 100,000 soldiers and horses are all recently recruited recruits.  It has not yet formed a strong fighting force.  Just these 100,000 troops crossing the river to attack Cao Jun's fortress, which looks like a hedgehog, is no different from committing suicide?  Moreover, a careless move may expose the fact that Guandu's troops are empty.  Therefore, Zhao Yun proposed an attack, which was definitely a bold idea.

    However, Zhao Yun is very courageous.  But Gan Ning is not a timid winner.  At this time, Gan Ningna was also worried that he could not satisfactorily complete the task assigned by his master.  I was very interested when I heard that Zhao Yun was preparing to make some big move.

    Gan Ning smiled and said: "General, you can serve your lord without fear of life and death. How can I, Gan Ning, lag behind? Just tell me what plans you have, general."

    "Good! What a good man." Zhao Yun praised happily: "Since General Lao Gan lends me three thousand sailors, I will cross the river to attack Cao Jun."

    Good guy.  Although Gan Ning was also a bold master.  But Zhao Yun was still stunned by what he said.  Gan Ning frowned and said, "General, this is you"?All plans?  Is this a bit hasty?  Although the strength of Cao Ying's soldiers and horses is not as good as our main force.  But that is much stronger than our new army.  Moreover, our numbers of soldiers and horses are not superior.  Cao Ying even built fortresses along the river.  A high platform was built densely on the city wall.  There is a thunderstone cart on each high platform.  Although the throwing distance of those thunderbolt carts is much closer than that of our stone carts, they occupy high places and are numerous in number.  Its coverage area is enough to cover the entire coast of the Yellow River.  Even though my navy could gallop on the Yellow River, Cao Cao was unable to send his boats across the river.  They also dare not approach the south bank of the Yellow River easily.  Now the general wants to borrow my three thousand naval troops to brazenly cross the river to attack Cao Cao.  Wouldn't that be like child's play?  If so, I cannot agree to it.  It's not that I'm timid, but that I can't live up to my lord's trust.  It simply exposed the strength of our place.  "

    Hearing this, Zhao Yun chuckled and said: "General Gan, please rest assured. Although I am eager to do my best, I am not a reckless person. Of course I know the stakes. How could we let our brothers attack the fortress head-on?  Guandu?"

    When Gan Ning heard what Zhao Yun said, he immediately became interested and said, "I heard that the general has a great opinion."

    Zhao Yun is not pretentious either.  Then he led Gan Ning to the combat sandbox.  He said: "General Gan, look at this. This is the trend in the Yellow River Basin. This is Guandu where Cao Cao is entrenched. If we capture Guandu, we will immediately threaten Cao Cao's hometown Yanzhou. By then, Cao Cao's foundation will be based on Chenliu and Xudu.  Then everyone will be under our iron body. That's why Cao Cao was so nervous about Guandu. That's why he built such strong fortifications here in Guandu. If we want to attack Guandu by force, we will definitely have to pay a heavy price.  The price is high. With your and my military power alone, we cannot scoop up Guandu. Moreover, this is not the purpose of my lord."

    Gan Ning nodded in agreement.

    Zhao Yun continued: "According to the combat intention of our staff, our purpose here is not to storm Guandu, but to attract Cao Cao's attention and let Cao Cao mobilize all his troops to Guandu to take precautions.  . In order to facilitate the implementation of the staff's subsequent operational intentions. In this case, it does not matter whether we attack Guandu or not. As long as we let Cao Cao's troops mobilize. Let them follow us, then our  The goal has been achieved. Now, since we are training our troops here with great fanfare and cannot attract Cao Jun's attention, why don't we attack here instead."

    Gan Ning looked in the direction of Zhao Yun's finger and saw that it was Mengjin, another crossing of the Yellow River.  Gan Ning somewhat understood.

    At this time, Zhao Yun said with great pride: "Although this is also an important place leading to Sili. However, due to the current ruin of Sili, the population in the wilderness is sparsely populated, and Cao Cao and the Xiliang army have formed an alliance. And here is adjacent to  Then at the boundary of the Xiliang Army, Cao Cao did not gather many soldiers and horses here in order not to cause misunderstandings with the Xiliang Army. As long as we scoop up Mengjin as fast as lightning, the entire Sili will be at my mercy. And as long as we completely  They occupied Sili and severed the connection between Cao Cao and the Xiliang Army, so there is no room for Cao Cao not to mobilize his troops. What¡¯s more, now the Xiliang Army has actually surrendered to our Youzhou Army!"

    Gan Ning applauded the case.

    But Jiao Ting under Gan Ning.  But he asked in confusion: "General! If we attack Sili unexpectedly with our troops, I believe that the two generals can scoop out the entire Sili, but with our small strength, it is definitely not enough to defend Sili. Not to mention  It may be possible to cope with the counterattack of all Cao Cao's troops. Although the Xiliang army has surrendered to our Youzhou army, the lord has not made it known to the world. This means that the lord does not want these princes to know about this matter, so as not to attract their attention!  So I¡¯m afraid the Xiliang Army won¡¯t give us any support!¡±

    Before Zhao Yun could answer, Gan Ning laughed and scolded: "You idiot. Why are we defending the city? If Cao Cao sends troops, won't our goal have been achieved? Could it be that in the past few years, you have been a soldier and thought you were stupid?  Have you forgotten all about it?¡±

    Jiao Ting suddenly understood, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Hehe! In the past few years, we have been training navy troops with the master! We have really forgotten our old profession."

    Gan Ning laughed and scolded him and ignored him.  Turning to Zhao Yun, he said: "General, this is a very good plan. Xingba will give you full support. But after you and I leave, who will hand over the Guandu camp? What should Cao's soldiers on the other side do if they see a flaw?"

    Zhao Yun smiled and said: "We don't need many soldiers and horses to attack Sili. Sili has been in war for a long time and the city is ruined. I have three thousand fine cavalry. General Gan only needs to send some naval troops to help me transport these soldiers and horses.  Meng Jin is enough. I would like to ask General Gan to put in more effort here."

    Gan Ning shook his head and said: "This is not possible. How can you defeat me by attacking Sili? And if you want to attack Mengjin by surprise, the big ships under my command are useless. As soon as those big ships move, the Cao soldiers on the opposite side will immediatelyKnow.  They quickly conveyed the message. When the time comes, your surprise attack on Meng Jin will definitely take a lot of effort.  If you don't do it right, you'll end up stealing the chicken rather than losing the rice.  Therefore, you can only take my Mengchong battleship and sneak out quietly at night when the Cao camp on the opposite side cannot observe.  And this night boating on the Yellow River, although these soldiers of mine are all veterans.  But it still requires my personal command to be foolproof.  And using mengchong battleships to plunder cities along the river is also my old profession.  It can help the general.  "

    Zhao Yun thought for a while and felt that what Gan Ning said made sense, so he nodded and said: "That's okay. It's just that after I leave, my army can be entrusted to my marching commander, Mr. Liu, to manage it. Anyway, these soldiers and horses are just for everyone.  Regular training is carried out every day, and the absence of my three thousand cavalry will not have much impact. On the contrary, General Gan's navy camp is to protect the safety of our north bank of the Yellow River. After General Gan left, I don't know who can be entrusted to him.  This important task.¡±

    Gan Ning smiled and said: "General, it doesn't matter as long as you have a large camp. I don't need to consider my navy camp. Not to mention that Cao Ying doesn't have a large navy to fight against me. Even if he has a navy, he can't.  Although my navy stronghold only has 50,000 sailors, it has forty invincible warships that can carry 300 people, and two hundred giant ships that can carry 100 people. There are countless other small boats. And my navy's  Erlang, they are all veterans who have been traversing the waters for many years. There is no rival on the Yellow River. I only need to leave Jiao Ting and let him conduct daily patrols on the water surface, and everything will be safe."

    Once the strategy was decided, Zhao Yun immediately wrote his battle plan into a battle report and sent it to the staff headquarters in the rear.  Then that night, he quietly set out on Gan Ningde's warship.

    Two days later, there is still no news about Cao Cao.  Zhao Yun and Gan Ning had already arrived near Mengjin.
