    The confrontation between Zhang Jia and Cao Cao's army is still going on. The two sides seem to have reached some kind of agreement. No one takes the initiative to attack, and they both maintain small fights and will never start a war easily.  The strategy formulated by Wang Lei requires Cai Chi's assistance and time to plan.  The strategy formulated by Cao Cao required the various princes to send troops, and it also took time.  Both sides have their own thoughts and are actively preparing for the next war.  In the blink of an eye, September has already entered.  The hot summer days have dissipated and we have entered the crisp autumn season.  On this day, a carriage drove slowly outside the gate of Xuehai Wuya Academy.  The carriage door curtain rolled up, and Wang Lei and Zhou Tai strode down.  Wang Lei wore an ordinary blue robe and took Zhou Tai into the academy.  After arriving at the academy, Wang Lei met Sima Hui, Pang Degong, Huang Chengyan, Hua Tuo and others, and then went directly to the place where Tai Shici lived.  The place where Taishi Ci lived was a small courtyard to the north of the academy.  Arriving outside the yard, Zhou Tai walked to the door and knocked gently on the door.  After a while, the door creaked open.  When Taishi Ci saw Zhou Tai and Wang Lei, he was stunned for a moment, and then said: "My lord, please!" Wang Lei nodded and stepped into the courtyard.  Entering the hall, Wang Lei took a seat at the main seat, while Taishi Ci and Zhou Tai sat below.  Taishi Ci said: "The battle between Jizhou and Yanzhou has begun. The war is very tense. My lord is busy with business. Why do you come to the academy?" Zhou Tai said: "My lord is here for you!" Upon hearing this, Taishi Ci suddenly fell silent.  .  Wang Lei continued: "When we were attacking Gongsun Zan, you left the battlefield halfway and said you needed two years to settle down. I gave you two years to study in the academy and settle down. Now that two years have passed, you should also come out to help.  I am." Taishi Ci's nose was sore and his eyes were full of excitement.  Unexpectedly, Wang Lei still clearly remembered the old agreement.  What Taishi Ci didn't expect was that Wang Lei would take the initiative to come to the academy to invite him to serve as an official.  Wang Lei valued him so highly that it was difficult for Taishi Ci to remain calm.  When Yuan Shao rebelled, Tai Shici led his army to fight with Yuan Shao's army, and was defeated once.  That time, Wang Lei not only did not pursue the case, but gave him the greatest encouragement to continue leading the troops.  When attacking Gongsun Zan, Taishi Ci was defeated twice in a row. Wang Lei still did not blame him and entrusted him with important tasks.  If it were other princes, they would have put Taishi Ci aside long ago and no longer pay attention to Taishi Ci.  But Wang Lei was different. Wang Lei stubbornly gave him opportunities again and again.  Such a benefactor moved Taishi to be compassionate.  Taishi Ci¡¯s heart was filled with the thought of dying for a confidant.  Taishi Ci got up and came to the hall. With a plop, he knelt on his knees and laid his hands on the ground. He knelt down on the ground with his head piously and said loudly: "Taishi Ci is willing to drive for the Lord, even if he is broken into pieces." Firm determination.  , fully revealed.  Wang Lei walked up to Taishi Ci, held up Taishi Ci, and said, "I don't need you to be broken into pieces. I just hope that you will use all the things you have learned in the academy in the past two years to expand my territory for me." "  Please remember this!" Tai Shici clasped his fists, his eyes sharp.  Wang Lei straightened his expression and shouted: "Taishici, listen to the order!" "The general is here!" Taishi Ci clasped his fists again, his voice decisive.  Wang Lei ordered: "I appoint you as the rear general and immediately rush to Bohai County to preside over the frontline war in Bohai County. Whether it is a proactive attack or a defensive strategy, you have full command. I only want the final victory, not the process.  . This is your chance to prove yourself. I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer." Zhou Tai took out the seal of the general and handed it to Tai Shi Ci.  After Taishi Ci took it, he bowed respectfully.  Wang Lei said: "After leaving the academy, go say goodbye to your mother, and then prepare to fight. This battle is a key battle to establish Jizhou's dominance. I hope you can achieve something." "Thank you, my lord!" Taishi Ci's heart  All that was left was full of emotion and a respectful salute.  ¡­ ¡­ Yanzhou, Dongjun.  The stalemate between Cao Jun and Jizhou caused Cao Cao's army to consume countless grains.  Cao Cao is different from Wang Lei. Wang Lei owns Jizhou, Bingzhou and Youzhou, and Wang Lei also has Chang'an and Luoyang areas, with sufficient food.  Yanzhou is different from Qingzhou. Before Cao Cao came to power, Yanzhou was in chaos. Officials exploited the people, which made Yanzhou's foundation very weak.  Qingzhou was even worse. Qingzhou had been occupied by the Yellow Turban bandits for a long time, and there were many wars.  Cao Cao surrendered the Qingzhou bandits,The Qingzhou thieves turned into their own troops, but Qingzhou was extremely desolate.  Even though Cao Cao vigorously promoted farming, Qingzhou was still far behind Jizhou.  It can be said that Cao Cao's foundation is very weak and cannot be compared with Wang Lei.  Even so, Cao Cao could only persist.  Giving up at this time means that Cao Cao will never have a chance to counterattack or defeat Wang Lei.  In the main tent, Cao Cao looked at Xi Zhicai and Xun You with an expectant look on his face.  Xi Zhicai and Xun You left Puyang County one after another to carry out their missions.  The two envoys went to different places. Cao Cao thought that Xi Zhicai and Xun You must have rushed back one after another, but they actually returned to the military camp on the same day.  Xun You's eyes were excited and he said: "My lord, Zhang Lu has agreed to attack Wang Lei." His tone was calm, but there was a hint of pride.  Xi Zhicai looked a little pale and said: "Sun Ce also agreed to send troops and is willing to attack Wang Lei with us." "Okay!" Cao Cao smiled with his hands on his hands, with endless fighting spirit on his face.  With the addition of Zhang Lu and Sun Ce, the front line against Wang Lei will continue to expand, and the war will completely burn on the border of Wang Lei's territory.  Xun You asked: "My Lord, in addition to Zhang Lu and Sun Ce, what is the attitude of Liu Bei, Liu Biao, and Tao Qian?" Cao Cao replied: "These three people have agreed to send troops and are all on our side." After a pause.  , Cao Cao asked: "You have met Zhang Lu and Sun Ce, have you determined the time to launch the attack?" Xun You replied: "I and Zhang Lu agreed to launch a general attack on October 15th." Xi Zhicai replied  : "Han and Wang Lei's jurisdiction border on each other. It is very easy to attack Wang Lei and Zhang Lu. But Sun Ce is different. Sun Ce's power is all in Jiangdong. If you want Sun Ce to participate, it will take at least a month. Even, the time may be longer  "I think Sun Ce will join the war in November." Cao Cao waved his sleeves and said, "It doesn't matter. Since Sun Ce has agreed to join the war, that's the best result."  With human power, in this battle, our strength will be unprecedentedly strong." Everyone in the camp is full of fighting spirit.  Cao Cao stood up suddenly and ordered: "Everyone, since we have won over all the princes, we, as the initiators of this war, must show enough sincerity and set an example for all the princes. Starting today, we will start the war.  Wang Lei's decisive battle. I firmly believe that as we attack, the other princes will join in, and the dilemma Wang Lei will face will become more and more difficult." "Fight!" Cao Cao said loudly with his head raised.  Xun You and Xi Zhicai heard the words and answered loudly.  As Cao Cao issued the order for a general attack, Cao Jun, who was confronting the Jizhou Army, went crazy. He adopted a strategy of killing one thousand enemies and damaging eight hundred, and constantly competed with Wang Lei.  The decisive battle between the two sides began at the end of September, and the number of dead and wounded soldiers increased sharply. Moreover, Cao Cao not only did not weaken his offensive, but continued to increase his troop strength.  Zhang Jia was stationed in Fanyang County and frequently attacked on the basis of defense.  The two sides clashed, but there was no winner.  In ten tenth month, Ma Teng and Han Sui, who were west of Chang'an, sent out troops and the army approached.  Jia Xu had already prepared, mobilized his troops and generals, and sent a large army to the west to stop the attack.  At the end of October, Zhang Lu launched an attack from the south of Chang'an.  Zhang Lu's military strength was also within Jia Xu's expectation, and Jia Xu dispatched soldiers to attack Zhang Lu.  The battlefield to the west then opened up.  However, Wang Lei is still based in Ye County and has no intention of supporting Huang Zhong and Zhang Jia.  By the beginning of November, the war in Qinghe Country also entered a fever pitch.  Tian Yu, the Prime Minister of Qinghe State, dispatched soldiers to block the attacking Cao army.  The two sides were fighting on the front line of Qinghe Country, and the fighting was fierce.  When the Qinghe Kingdom was fighting fiercely, Bohai County in the east was suddenly attacked by Sun Ce and Tao Qian.  Sun Ce and Tao Qian each led an army to attack the front line of Bohai County, which Taishi Ci was in charge of.  The whole of Jizhou was in flames of war.  This kind of war has not yet reached its most intense stage.  By the end of November, Liu Bei led his army to leave Yuzhou and go straight to Luoyang along the Xingyang line, intending to cut off the connection between Chang'an and Jizhou.  Wang Lei was not surprised that Liu Bei led his army into battle.  When analyzing the battle situation before, Zhang Liao judged that the various princes would unite, so Wang Lei was always on guard against Liu Bei's actions.  When Liu Bei led his army to approach Luoyang, Wang Lei appointed Zhao Yun as the general of the left, and asked Jushou to assist Zhao Yun. He led an army of 50,000 and rushed to Luoyang to meet Liu Bei.  The princes in the world moved frequently, but Liu Biao did not move.  Liu Biao agreed with Cao Cao's proposal to attack Wang Lei, and even issued a public statement to denounce Wang Lei.  However, Liu Biao took no practical action.??Adopt a wait-and-see attitude.  In this regard, Cao Cao did not send anyone to question him.  The reason is very simple. Liu Biao wanted to have the best of both worlds.  Liu Biao chose to support Cao Cao. Although he only shouted a slogan and had no actual actions, Liu Biao still stood with Cao Cao.  Once the alliance formed by Cao Cao wins, Liu Biao can guarantee his position.  However, if Wang Lei wins, Liu Biao does not send troops to attack Wang Lei, and coupled with the relationship Liu Biao has established with Wang Lei before, Wang Lei will not kill Liu Biao.  No matter who wins, Liu Biao can keep his wealth.  Liu Biao¡¯s thoughts could not be hidden from Cao Cao, nor from Cai Mao and Kuai Yue.  Both of them opposed Liu Biao's choice.  In such troubled times, being a wallflower is definitely a two-faced thing.  Or stand firmly on Wang Lei's side and gain greater wealth.  Or resolutely attack Wang Lei, form an alliance with Cao Cao, and get a share of the pie.  But Liu Biao did nothing!  Because of Liu Biao¡¯s actions, Jingzhou remained extremely calm.  However, on this day, a carriage drove slowly on the street outside Cai's residence.  The carriage stopped outside Cai Mansion, the door curtain was rolled up, and a handsome young man stepped out.  He looked at the magnificent Cai Mansion with inexplicable excitement in his eyes.  After several years, he came back again.  It¡¯s just that when I came back this time, it was completely different from when I left.  The concubine who was not taken seriously in the past has now become a young man full of knowledge and a representative of Wang Lei.
