"After defeating Yuan Shu, we can capture part of Yangzhou and annex the resources left by Yuan Shu."
"Then Cao Cao's only great enemy is Yuan Shao from the north."
"The last step is to defeat Yuan Shao and make Cao Cao completely independent."
Chen Zhou continued his plan.
However, he did not interfere too much with Sun Ce and others and allowed them to develop.
Because he is worried that intervention will definitely change the original historical trajectory, and his "plan" will not work.
What Chen Zhou has to do now is to use his precognition of history and follow Cao Cao's original path to help Cao Cao win the Northern Han Dynasty, establish his own value and status, and live safely before thinking about Cao Wei's unification of the world.
As for the south, as well as Liu Bei and others, we will wait until we take over the north.
"According to Sir, when Yuan Shu died, Yuan Shao had already captured Qingzhou and Youzhou, right?"
Cao Ang said: "Yuan Shao occupies the four northern states. How can we be his opponent? In addition, Liu Biao is still in Jingzhou. He has a good relationship with Yuan Shao. He once teamed up with Yuan Shao to deal with Yuan Shu. If we fight Yuan Shao, Liu Biao will not sit idly by. reason."
This issue is also something Cao Cao and the others have to consider.
They asked themselves, could they really defeat Yuan Shao?
Cao Cao turned his questioning eyes to the people around him.
Cao Hong and Cao Ren didn't know what to say. They were generals who were only responsible for fighting, not good at making plans.
In the future, Cao Cao, who has obtained the three states of Henan, Yanxu, and part of Yangzhou, can he really defeat Yuan Shao, the four major states in the north?
You must know that the Hebei army is strong, and Yuan Shao's subordinates are even more powerful. Yuan's resources will be transferred to Yuan Shao when the time comes, and Cao Cao is just getting started, preparing to separate from Yuan Shao and stand on his own.
If Cao Cao really wants to stand on his own feet, he must fight Yuan Shao.
Even if they don't want to fight, Yuan Shao may take Gongsun Zan away and point his troops south. At that time, it won't matter whether Cao Cao is his little brother or not.
Cheng Yu and the others hesitated, not knowing how to respond.
"My lord, I can fight!"
Xun Yu affirmed.
During the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao did not want to fight many times, but Xun Yu continued to encourage him from the rear and finally persisted.
Xun Yu can definitely beat him.
"It's not difficult to beat Yuan Shao!"
Chen Zhou's voice sounded again at the right time: "Yuan Shao is indeed very strong. Hebei has strong soldiers and horses. The early stage will be difficult. As long as you survive the early stage, Yuan Shao is not worth mentioning! If you let me supervise the battle, Yuan Shao will definitely lose!"
Cao Cao and the others no longer say that Chen Zhou is arrogant!
With the previous series of foreshadowing, they can be sure that Chen Zhou has certain abilities.
After all, the level of future analysis is much deeper than theirs.
Of course, after all that was said, it was still an armchair discussion. None of them knew what Chen Zhou's ability to truly lead an army in war was.
"Sir, how should Yuan Shao be beaten?"
Cao Ang immediately asked.
This question also brought up Chen Zhou's difficulties.
You can't just say that you want to burn down Wuchao?
"Cut off Yuan Shao's food supply."
Chen Zhou thought about it for a while and said: "It's hard to be too specific now, but once the Hebei army's battle across the river is out of food, the subsequent food and grass will have to be replenished across the river. It's not that easy. This is something Cao Cao can defeat when he fights Yuan Shao." The only chance."
Hearing this, not only Cao Ang was silent, but Cao Cao and the others were also silent.
As for Dian Wei, he fell asleep directly.
However, the role of food and grass in the army is indeed very important.
"It's a good way to cut off food. It's not easy to get food across the river, but I always feel that he still has something to say."
Xun You touched his chin and said, "He won't deliberately not tell us everything, right? As mentioned earlier, he didn't explain why he concluded that Guo Si and Li Jue would fight."
Indeed, no reason was mentioned, but this made them want to know the reason even more.
The more you don't get, the more restless your heart becomes.
In fact, it's just that Chen Zhou doesn't know how to explain it. Anyway, there is no need to explain it in too much detail, just put forward the specific ones.
"As for Liu Biao, it's even simpler."
"Liu Biao rode into Jingzhou and took back all the major families. It sounds very powerful."
"But inside Jingzhou, there are many families and factions, and Liu Biao completely relies on his family."
"As long as we start with the Jingzhou family and they don't want to fight, Liu Biao can't make waves no matter how hard he tries."
Chen Zhou didn't take Liu Biao to heart yet.
A few years later, Liu Biao died, and the Jingzhou gentry did not want to fight, so they surrendered directly to Xiangyang.
Chen Zhou added: "Starting from Yuzhou, going to the four northern states, after defeating Yuan Shao, and then using the aristocratic family to evade Liu Biao, we can not only win the north, but also go south easily. This is my whole plan, you can take it, sir. Tell Cao Cao that I can do great service for you and establish your position in the Cao family."
As he said this, he took another look at Dian Wei, who was already sleeping on his stomach.
This old Dian is just a scumbag.
Cao Ang came to his senses and quickly went over Chen Zhou's words in his mind for fear of forgetting them.
The content of the plan is very rich and detailed. It is much more detailed than the broad scope proposed by Xi Zhong.
It's just that in some places, Chen Zhou didn't explain much, and they couldn't figure it out, so they were confused.
"Sir, this credit belongs to you, I can't take it away."
Cao Ang didn't need credit, not to mention his father was eavesdropping nearby. Once he was able to go out, Chen Zhou's credit would never be lost. He asked again: "Sir, what kind of person do you think Mr. Cao is?"
He asked this question on behalf of his father.
I want to know what Cao Cao's image and status are in Chen Zhou's eyes.
Hearing this, Cao Cao rubbed his hands expectantly.
Today’s second focus is finally here.
"How is Cao Cao?"
Chen Zhou thought for a moment and said: "He is the person I admire most, and he is also the person I think is most qualified and capable of pacifying the world. Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Liu Biao and others are not worth mentioning! If I have to find someone I must take refuge with Cao Cao, but it is a pity that I became Zhang Miao's man and it was too late to abandon the dark side and join the bright side."
He didn't say these words specifically to praise Cao Cao. When he saw the Three Kingdoms before traveling, the one he admired most was indeed Cao Cao.
The stain of massacre cannot be washed away, and being suspicious by nature is the basic operation of a traitor, but these cannot prevent Chen Zhou from admiring him.
With Boss Cao, as long as you don't mess around, don't betray, etc., you can basically lie down.
It's a pity that Boss Cao has no successor after Red Cliff.
Otherwise, the person who unified the Three Kingdoms must be Cao Cao.
After receiving this answer, Cao Cao's eyes widened and he wanted to shout, but he quickly held back and clenched his hands into fists in excitement.
It turns out that the gentleman inside admires me so much!
Isn't this the opportunity to win over?
However, he was not impatient and immediately walked over to find Chen Zhou to calm down first, but the smile on his face never stopped. He didn't know how excited he was.
"Congratulations, lord!"
Zhong Yao smiled and said: "That gentleman has the intention to seek refuge with the lord, but due to the identity of Zhang Miao's subordinates, there is no chance to seek refuge. As long as the lord releases him, he will definitely not run away."
"Congratulations, lord, for getting this great talent!"
Xun Yu and the others congratulated each other, but they still did not dare to speak too loudly.
Cao Cao grinned, feeling very happy!
It’s stable now!
