Guo Tu's words struck a chord in Yuan Shao's heart.

He understood Yuan Shao's character in some aspects.

Yuan Shao was sometimes a very heroic and generous person.

However, due to his favorable conditions since childhood and the fact that the Yuan family has always been at the top of the world, his personality lacked a unique toughness.

That means he cannot suffer a loss! Yuan Shao cannot suffer a loss either, and he is not allowed to suffer a loss.

Yuan Shao could give generously to the young men under his command, but he could not allow others to rob them.

When it comes to his soldiers, he may accept them dying on the battlefield for him, but he cannot tolerate these soldiers dying because of his opponent's calculations.

Yuan Shao could not accept sacrificing some of his soldiers to preserve future interests for a while, because deep down in his heart, after all, there was still an emotion called "perfectionism" at work.

Once someone or something crosses the threshold of his perfectionism, Yuan Shao won't be able to stand it anymore.

And Guo Tu also grasped and understood this point of Yuan Shao, so what he said just now could be said to have pierced Yuan Shao's heart, making him restless and extremely irritable.

Yuan Shao stood up and began to pace back and forth in the handsome tent, his eyes flashing with displeasure on his face.

Although Yuan Shao said nothing, Tian Feng had been with Yuan Shao for a long time, so he could naturally tell what his expression meant.

Something is not right.

Tian Feng hurriedly stepped forward and admonished again: "General..."

"Don't say anything yet!" Yuan Shao raised a hand and pointed at Tian Feng with a very determined expression.

Then he saw him looking at Guo Tu: "What if we don't act according to Tian Yuanhao's advice?"

Guo Tu hurriedly said: "The general can write a letter to Cao Cao, cross the Yellow River from the ferry in Yanzhou, and then go to fight with Sili. In this way, he can successfully cross the river without letting the soldiers die in vain. Wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?"

"Bastard!" Tian Feng suddenly shouted, frightening both Yuan Shao and Guo Tu.

Guo Tu turned to look at Tian Feng in surprise, only to see him glaring at him with an angry look on his face and a fierce look in his eyes.

If Yuan Shao hadn't been present, Guo Tu would have probably pounced on Tian Feng and fought him tooth and nail.

"What are you going to do!?" Guo Tu looked stern but looked very stern on the surface, but in reality he felt guilty.

Tian Feng is still a very fierce person.

Tian Feng scolded: "Guo Gongze, do you know how much food our army of more than 300,000 people consumes every day? In order to support the 300,000 troops on the front line, how many civilians from the four prefectures of Hebei will be dispatched to deliver supplies to the front line.

?Do you know how many fields in the four states of Hebei are now vacant, and how much land is not cultivated at all! You asked the general to write a letter to Cao Cao to borrow a passage. Do you know that once my hundreds of thousands of troops stationed here are east

Xiang, how long will it take to recross the river there? Every day our army delays, the rear areas of our four states will be empty and weakened! Delaying it for a long time is the way to destroy a country, do you know?"

Guo Tu was yelled at by Tian Feng, and his face turned red. However, Tian Feng was always fearless, so it was really unnecessary to have a head-on conflict with him.

But there were some things he couldn't help but say.

"Yuan Hao's words are wrong. The fields in the back of Hebei are uncultivated and have become barren fields. It is a pity. Then it would be a pity if tens of thousands of people were lost for no reason because of crossing the river? The fields in Hebei are fields, but the fields in Hebei are fields.

Are people no longer human?"

"you!"

"Mr. Yuan Hao."

At this moment, Pang Ji stood up.

Pang Ji glanced at Tian Feng lightly and said slowly: "Forgive Pang for being stupid, but to Pang's ears, Mr. Shicai Tian's words seemed to be blaming the general?"

Tian Feng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said angrily: "Pang Yuantu, what do you mean by this? When did you accuse the general!"

Pang Ji chuckled and said: "What do you mean? Tian Yuanhao, how many civilians to recruit from Hebei and how many soldiers and horses to use to go south were all decided by the general after discussing with everyone. Since using so many soldiers and horses will have so many disadvantages,

Then why didn't you give advice to the general before you sent out the army? Now the war is tense, but you said that the fields are deserted and the people are heavily recruited... Isn't that interesting? "

Tian Feng's lips trembled back and forth, trembling up and down.

"You, don't talk nonsense! I didn't mean that!"

"Am I talking nonsense?" Pang Ji sneered: "Then ask the general, am I talking nonsense?"

Tian Feng turned around quickly: "General, I..."

"Stop talking!" The commanding tone in Yuan Shao's tone left no room for doubt.

After saying this, Yuan Shao turned to look at Guo Tu: "Gongze, Yuan ordered you to be the envoy to Yuzhou to see Cao Cao in person and explain to him the matter of borrowing the road!"

Guo Tu was overjoyed when he heard this: "Promise!"

Tian Feng still wanted to speak, but he saw Yuan Shao impatiently waving his sleeves at him: "The accounts are settled... everyone leave!"

…

At this moment, Liu Qi was sending strong troops to attack Cheng Yang, where Jushu was guarding, and Zhao County, where Zhang He was located, while he was constantly sending people to inquire about Yuan Shao's movements.

Since Wukou had completely lost its effectiveness, Liu Qi stopped attacking Wukou. Instead, he transferred his troops and divided his troops into two groups to attack Chengyang and Zhaoxian.

Wen Chou wanted to go east to support Zhang He at Wukou, but Liu Qi sent Huang Zhong to lead elite troops to station along the way to block his way.

The older Huang Zhong gets, the calmer he becomes.

He was not in a hurry to fight against Wen Chou, but only sent troops to set up checkpoints and blockades, guarding the main roads to prevent Wen Chou from coming to support him. If Wen Chou dared to come, he would severely attack Wen Chou.

Wen Chou is in a dilemma and cannot support him for the time being.

Zhang He is an outstanding general of the younger generation in Hebei, but facing these two bug-level talents, Zhang Liao and Xu Rong, he is having a hard time at this moment.

Zhang He is indeed very good at using troops, but Xu Rong is mature and has much more experience than him. When the two armies clash, Xu Rong can solve any tactics and battle formations that Zhang He can think of.

As for Zhang Liao, he commanded from the front of the formation. He was both brave and strategic and had extremely rich combat experience.

Is it true that he is the first of the five good generals in history?

Zhang He led his troops to fight against Zhang Liao and Xu Rong several times, but they were beaten back to Zhao County severely.

Xu Rong was strategizing from behind, and Zhang Liao was in front to confront Zhang He. The pressure on Zhang He was really too great... It is true that Zhang He had tens of thousands of soldiers and generals, which was a lot, but in terms of operation and coordination, because there were many young soldiers in

Compared with the Jingzhou Army, the maturity of the team is still far behind.

The main person who can compete with the Jingzhou Army is Jushou.

As a handsome man, Jushou did not have to go to the front line to command the soldiers of the three armies in the battle against the Jingzhou army.

But he was able to strategize and defend Cheng Yang like an ironclad. No matter how powerful the Jingzhou army was, they could not defeat Cheng Yang for a while.

Even if Liu Qi came to Cheng Yang to direct in person, the effect would be the same.

After several battles, Liu Qi, Xun You, Xu Shu and others all recognized Ju Shou's strength.

Compared to the brave Wen Chou and Zhang He who are good at fighting, this talent is the most difficult to deal with.

It was at this time that the guards from the Guards Office sent back a letter, saying that the main camp of Yuan Army to the north of Yuan Army sent envoys to Henan, but they did not know what they wanted.
