" I…" Liu Bei opened his mouth, then closed it again, and then opened it again.
Xia Cheng's future development plan made him unable to believe it, but he was also greatly shocked.
If one had to use an image to describe it, it would be that he was uncultured and could walk the world with a single sentence.
"…Zi Mou is indeed full of experience and wisdom. Such a far-sighted plan is something I never thought of! Good, this is great! It's my fortune to be able to get Zi Mou!”
After taking a deep breath for a long time, Liu Bei finally suppressed the surging and excited feeling in his heart.
Before Xia Cheng gave him the analysis, he had already predicted that the other party must have some sort of plan.
However, when he really heard the great future that the other party had planned for him, Liu Bei could not suppress the excitement in his heart.
Once a person's heart had expectations, even if it was just a little change, they would involuntarily feel a surge of emotions.
"Of course, my lord. Those are just our follow-up plans. There are still many difficulties waiting for us to implement them.”Xia Cheng smiled.
Yuzhou was not so easy to take.
In the later generations, there were scholars and experts who summarized it very well.
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the feudal lords divided their territories and occupied territories. It was a little like playing Go.
For the early warlords, survival was their first mission.
Therefore, the rules of Go-gold horn, silver edge, grass belly-were also applicable.
If he wanted to develop, it was best to occupy a corner from the beginning to ensure that it was easy to survive before continuing to develop. It was relatively convenient.
For example, Sun Ce occupied the southeast corner, Liu Zhang occupied the southwest corner, Gongsun Zan occupied the northeast corner, and Ma Teng and Han Sui occupied the northwest corner.
Next was the silver-rimmed territory: For example, Yuan Shao occupied the north and Liu Biao occupied the south.
Grass Belly referred to the Central Plains, which was the most difficult place to survive because it was surrounded by enemies.
Yuzhou was a classic example of a grass belly.
It was a place of war. From the beginning of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the war continued until Cao Cao's Guandu Battle. Even the Southern Xiongnu came to plunder.
Moreover, if he wanted to develop in Yuzhou, he would have to choose one of the two Yuan brothers to rely on.
It was only now that Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu both had opponents and were entangled by them, so Xia Cheng and the others had an opportunity to take advantage of them.
However, it was still unknown how much he would gain.
"No matter how difficult it is, I will forge ahead and definitely not let Zi Mou down!”Liu Bei stared at Xia Cheng and said solemnly.
...
The next day, Peng City's meeting hall.
Tao Qian brought Xu Zhou's civil and military officials to discuss with Liu Bei and Xia Cheng the matter of retreating Cao.
"Right now, General Yide and Lord Kong are stationed on the outside and can form a corner with the city.”
Xia Cheng stood in the middle of the hall, representing Liu Bei.
"To rule peace, one must first be benevolent. To rule chaos, one must first be scheming. It wasn't about the number of soldiers, but the loyalty of the people. This time, Cao Cao was destined to return empty-handed.”
"But Cao Cao came in anger. His army first defeated the Yellow Turbans and then Yuan Shu. At this time, morale is high and unstoppable.”
Tao Qian was truly shocked by Cao Cao's brutality.
"But Tao Xuzhou, you have 30,000 Danyang elite soldiers. Adding the Xuzhou army, you still have 60,000 to 70,000 troops. My master, Liu Xuande, also has more than 10,000 elite soldiers.”Xia Cheng responded naturally.
"Zhu thought that Cao Cao's army would have a problem in terms of rations and supplies. If he could stall for time and exhaust the enemy's rations, he could naturally retreat.”Mei Zhu thought for a moment and suggested.
One had to know that when a large army set out, especially when fighting across borders, logistics and military rations had to be considered.
Only small groups of scouts didn't need to worry about logistics.
Because they appeared in the enemy's territory, they could completely seize food from the enemy and be self-sufficient. When they encountered a path of retreat, they could also easily use their mobility to escape.
Therefore, it was usually possible to wait until Cao Cao ran out of rations.
However, the prerequisite was that there had to be a problem with the other party's transportation route.
However, ambushing the other party was not a good idea.
Relatively speaking, Mi Zhu's thinking capacity was still not enough.
After all, Cao Cao was a military expert, and his subordinates were both civil and military. The arrangements for the encampment would definitely be arranged in an orderly manner.
Each division was arranged in a disorderly manner, their forces interlocked with each other, covering each other. At the same time, they took into account the needs of defense, grain transportation, supplies, and so on. The connection and cooperation were flawless, strict and thorough.
"I have an old friendship with him and have fought with Cao Cao before. Just wait for me to send a letter and we will be able to retreat!”After some discussion, Liu Bei spoke according to the plan.
Everyone was shocked.
The civil and military officials of Xu looked at Liu Bei as if he was a fool.
Was this guy getting cocky?
He actually dared to boast so shamelessly.
"A letter and you want to make Cao retreat? Liu Pingyuan…isn't he afraid that the wind will hurt his tongue?”
"That's right. Although Liu Pingyuan has contributed to the rescue of my Xu Prefecture this time, isn't this statement too unrealistic?”
All of a sudden, there was a lot of discussion.
Liu Bei didn't bother to explain.
He looked at Tao Qian and said passionately,""If Cao Cao doesn't retreat, then I will fight him in Peng City!”
Xia Cheng smiled mysteriously.
Because only he knew what would happen next.

He was a man with a cheat!
The ability to see through every detail and observe the movements of the character was updated in real-time.
He had already confirmed that Lu Bu had attacked Yanzhou and occupied Puyang. He was currently attacking the remaining territories of Yanzhou.
Calculating the time, it should be about time for the urgent report to arrive here.
Although it was possible that there was an error.
However, the error would not be too big.
Therefore, Cao Cao, who was worried about the civil and military officials of Xuzhou, was about to be forced to give up Xuzhou.
He could only temporarily make peace with Tao Qian and Liu Bei before he could lead his army back to fight Lu Bu.
And this would be another opportunity for them to gain fame!
That was naturally how he acted as an AC and why he was here!
