"Lord, news came back from Shouchun, Xiangyang and other places. Today, Cao Mengde sent Xun Yu, Zhong Yao, Liu Ye and others as envoys to Yuan Shu, Liu Biao, Sun Jian and others, and they have ceased war."

Zhou Cheng's intelligence network has penetrated into Cao Cao, Liu Biao, Yuan Shu, Sun Jian and others.

Especially Cao Cao, he is a person who likes to be the initiator.

This time the anti-Zhou alliance was still initiated by Cao Cao.

Zhou After listening to Xu Fang's report, Cheng said:"This is what was expected.

Jia Xu said:"My lord, although the southern princes are united, they still don't trust each other. My lord can send troops first and use the power of thunder to enter Yanzhou and destroy the Zhang brothers first.""

The Zhang brothers refer to Zhang Miao and Zhang Chao.

Because Zhou Cheng disrupted history, Zhang Miao and Zhang Chao are still prefects.

Zhang Miao occupied Chenliu, Jiyin County and other places, and Zhang Chao occupied Rencheng State, Shanyang County, Dongping State and other places.

Basically, most of the counties in Yanzhou are occupied by the Zhang brothers.

Dongjun is nominally in the hands of Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shu has already reduced the strength of Dongjun to Withdrew, the troops and horses guarding Dongjun now are troops recruited spontaneously by the local aristocratic families.

Li Ru also said:"First attack Yanzhou quickly, and then make plans for Xuzhou. The lord does not need to rush into Xuzhou. After the coalition forces enter Xuzhou, It can be combined with Chen Gui and his son inside and outside.

Guo Jia stood up and said,"My lord, you can send General Zilong to lead the cavalry in a roundabout way to reach the rear of the coalition forces and cut off their food routes.""

Three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang.

What's more, many top counselors are planning together.

At this time, you and I are constantly improving the offensive route to the south.

To put it simply, when attacking Yanzhou, we must make good use of cavalry Moreover, conquering cities and territories is a trivial matter. The focus is to weaken the overall strength of the coalition.

If it can really cut off its food routes, it will be a huge blow to the morale of the coalition.

At this time, Pang Tong also stood up and said:"A certain person often heard The name of the Two Tigers of Jiangdong, if the Lord can defeat their elite, it will be like cutting off an arm of the coalition army."

In the Kwantung Allied Forces back then, Sun Jian was the most proficient in fighting.

However, Sun Jian was betrayed by Yuan Shu.

This also led to discord and distrust within the Allied Forces.

Sun Jian would not believe Yuan Shu, and he would fight with Yuan Shu in this battle.

"Shiyuan's thoughts are also my thoughts."

Zhou Cheng said with a smile:"I have defeated Sun Wentai several times, and I can pull out the teeth this time."

Immediately, Zhou Cheng made a plan.

He decided to divide the cavalry into three parts.

After the main force crossed the river and went south, a part of the cavalry passed through Xuzhou and maneuvered and interspersed in Yangzhou and Jingzhou to harass and intercept the enemy's food routes, reinforcements, and supplies.

The other part secretly attacked the Xuyi area of ​​Xuzhou, detoured to the rear of Sun Jian's army, and cut off its food and grass. The remaining cavalry followed the large army and fought with the infantry to maintain the numerical advantage of the cavalry on the frontal battlefield.

……

October 200 AD.

After experiencing a good harvest, Zhou Cheng led 7,000 Zhou soldiers to leave Zhenliao City and head to the north bank of the Yellow River.

At this time, on the north bank of the Yellow River, the Zhou army's camps were endless, with no end in sight.

Every day there are oxcarts and horse-drawn carriages transporting grain and grass to the camp.

Grain and grass are stored in batches, and every place is protected from moisture and moisture.

There are also certain intervals between each pile of grain and grass, and they are covered with sand bags to prevent them from burning into one piece in the event of a fire.

Outside the camp, on the school grounds, soldiers donned armor and practiced slashing skills.

"kill!""kill!""kill!"

The soldiers and horses were strong and ready, and the shouts of killing echoed on both sides of the Yellow River.

Zhou Cheng's troops were not only good at fighting, but also liked war. The gains they drew from the war helped them get rid of poverty and get rid of the bottom status.

"This time when we go south, we will be sure to behead people above level three and be promoted to corps commander."

"Hahaha, could it be that you have taken a fancy to the little lady in the village?"

"Her father and brother are both very senior. If I want to marry her, I must be above them both."

During the break, what the soldiers talked about the most was the meritorious service of going south.

In addition to Yuan Shang who was wiped out previously, the foreigners in the Three Han Lands, as well as Zhang Lu and Han Sui in Hanzhong.

Most of the Zhou troops have been together in the past two years. He has not experienced much war.

Therefore, there is naturally less in terms of obtaining military exploits.

Without military exploits, he cannot be promoted, let alone get more cattle, sheep and other livestock.

Under Zhou Cheng's rule, there was an atmosphere of comparison in the military camp. , beheading the fifth level is the captain, beheading the tenth level is the captain.

As for the team leader of the Centurion, it requires a certain command and leadership ability to select suitable candidates from the many captains.

Therefore, if you want to be promoted to For a higher position, the basic requirement is to achieve military merit.

In addition to military positions, under Zhou Cheng's rule, if you want to marry the woman of your choice, you also need matching 'assets'.

Fields, cattle, sheep, war horses, etc. are the three most important things for men. Big items.

Without these, even if you are handsome, not many women will like you.
