Although Yuan Shao is a villain, he has great ambitions to conquer the world. He will not betray Cao Cao's army until the Marquis of Dongyang falls.

"I'm afraid this matter is not that simple." Cao Cao said.

"What is Meng De's insight?" Yuan Shao asked thoroughly.

"Gongsun Zan knew that he was at a disadvantage, but he put on a stance to meet the enemy, so he had to guard against it," Cao Cao said.

"In this case, our army will take the lead!" Yuan Shao said.

Cao Cao is not happy. Doesn't this mean that he is timid?

"At the beginning, since I promised you to take Youzhou, I would not go back on my word. This matter still needs to be discussed in the long run." Cao Cao said.

Yuan Shao's petty thinking was seen through, but he was not embarrassed at all with such a thick skin.

"Meng De, I'm also thinking about you. This is the best way to win Youzhou in a short period of time. Are you going to spend several months here?" Yuan Shao said.

Cao Cao hesitated, but what Yuan Shao said made sense.

Not to mention the court ministers who are about to move, but also Yangzhou's reaction, as well as Ma Chao and Han Sui in Liangzhou.

Cao Cao has too many enemies, it is impossible to stay in Youzhou for too long.

"Let me think about it for another day!" Cao Cao said.

After the meeting, Yuan Shao left in a hurry.

"My lord, I think Cao Mengde has no intention of helping us after he won Bingzhou," Guo Tu said.

"Hmph, of course I know, but I'm still useful to him, and I won't give up easily." Yuan Shao said.

However, Yuan Shao was born in four generations and three generations. When did he become so humble?

It's fine for Cao Cao to suppress him, but now he is almost reduced to Cao Cao's younger brother.

"Unfortunately, before defeating Gongsun Zan, I can only endure the humiliation." Yuan Shao said to himself.

"My lord, the Marquis of Dongyang has already defeated the [-] army in Liaodong. It is only a matter of time before Gongsun Du admits defeat. If we drag it on, something will happen." Tian Feng said.

"If Cao Mengde doesn't help me take Youzhou, don't blame me for taking a bite instead." Yuan Shao sneered.

Tian Feng's heart froze, how could he bite back, he thought of several feasible plans in his mind, one is to seize Bingzhou, the other is to take refuge in Dongyang Hou, let Dongyang Hou attack Yanzhou...

If it really reaches that point, it will be cheaper for Marquis Dongyang.

"Don't worry, my lord. Cao Mengde is a hero of his generation. It's not his style to be timid and afraid of getting into trouble. In the end, he will definitely support the lord in the decisive battle." Tian Feng said.

"I hope so." Yuan Shao said.

On the other hand, Cao Cao was also very anxious, worried about this and that, as a lord, this should be considered.

"My lord, I'm afraid Yuan Benchu ​​has lost his patience." Yang Xiu said.

"Impatient? I have to wait!" Cao Cao said domineeringly.

If Yuan Shao could defeat Gongsun Zan by himself, he would have already done it himself, why wait until now?

"My lord, is it possible that Gongsun Zan is bluffing?" Yang Xiu asked.

bluff?

This reminded Cao Cao.

"Send all the scouts, I want to see what kind of support Gongsun Zan has!" Cao Cao said.

"Yes, my lord! Somebody will go in person!" Xiahou Dun said.

"Okay, Yuan Rang, bring more people." Cao Cao said.

Xiahou Dun strode away.

"My lord, I'm afraid the scouts won't find anything in a day," Yang Xiu said.

Cao Cao had a sullen face and didn't look directly at Yang Xiu.

Don't I know, I want you to talk too much?

In this way, Gongsun Zan's confident decision made both Cao Cao and Yuan Shao confused.

Even though he occupies a whole state, Gongsun Zan still regards himself as barefoot.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Liu Ke has been paying attention to the movements in Youzhou, Gongsun Zan's operations are as fierce as a tiger, even Liu Ke can't see clearly.

decisive battle?

More sloppy than imagined.

After Gongsun Du's defeat, he gathered some remnants and retreated to Xuantu County.

Xuantu County was originally a large county in the Western Han Dynasty. Later, Goguryeo rose and swallowed it, causing the territory of Xuantu County to shrink by more than half.

Gongsun Du's retreat to Xuantu County did not pose much threat to Liu Ke, so Liu Ke also turned his attention to Youzhou.

It can be said that the battle of Youzhou is related to the situation in the entire Hebei region.Whether it is Gongsun Zan's victory or the victory of Cao Yuan's allied army, it is not a good thing for Liu Ke.

The best ending is that both sides will suffer, or Gongsun Zan will win miserably and be unable to go south.
