Three Kingdoms: Economic mastermind, Cao Cao wins!

Li Mo said this not without reason, mainly because Yuan Shu did this in history, directly attacked Chenliu County, and stationed troops in Chenliu, preparing to surprise attack Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu in history did not put Cao Cao at that time in his eyes, Cao Cao at that time had just obtained Yanzhou, although it was called Yanzhou Mu, but Yanzhou was not stable in various parts of Yanzhou

The final remnant of 300,000 troops is more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, and Yuan Shu has a full 200,000 army, so naturally he didn't put Cao Cao in his eyes, although the situation has changed now, but Li Mo also has to remind Cao Cao,

It seems that Xuzhou and Yanzhou are close to each other, but this is in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and it is extremely inconvenient to travel, even if it is between two states and counties, at least a month on the road, plus coming back, and the time delayed in Xuzhou, it would be good if Li Mo could come back within three months, and by that time the spring ploughing had already ended, and there was a high probability that the fight had already started, Li Mo still decided to remind him

"Okay, I've made a note of this, but how do you plan to enter Xuzhou and go to Xiapi?"

"Go to Yuzhou".

"Yuzhou?".

Hearing Li Mo's words, Cao Cao was also slightly stunned, he didn't expect Li Mo to choose a completely different route, although both routes can reach Xuzhou, but there is no doubt that it is safer to go directly to Xuzhou from Yanzhou, and Li Mo chose the more dangerous Yuzhou, which not only consumes a little longer, but also has a higher probability of danger on the road, after all, Yuan Shu and Cao Cao's tense situation at this time can be seen

"That's right, even if I enter Xuzhou now, I'm afraid it will be difficult to see Tao Qian smoothly, it seems to be in Xuzhou, but Yuan Shu will not be unguarded, Yuan Shu and Tao Qian must have reached an agreement now, at this time the weakness is really exposed to the lord, I'm afraid either I can't see Tao Qian, or I may be ambushed halfway, and it seems dangerous to go to Yuzhou, but in fact it is a lot safer, Yuan Shu categorically would not expect the main guild to send people from Yuzhou to directly envoy Tao Qian."

"At that time, after Pengcheng, directly arrive at Xiapi, ask to see Tao Qian, as long as Tao Qian is persuaded not to send troops, the lord's crisis will be solved, and after the autumn harvest, the lord will have sufficient food and grass supplies, and there is no need to worry about the later stage."

"Alas, abundance, I have wronged you".

Listening to Li Mo's analysis, Cao Cao couldn't hear it, Li Mo's seemingly peaceful envoy was actually taking risks, Tao Qian did not dare to kill Li Mo easily, because Li Mo was going on behalf of Cao Cao, but if he was discovered along the way, if he died before seeing Tao Qian, it would really be in vain

"By the way, there is one more thing, Dian Wei can stay, but forget about the lord's personal soldiers, they are all people in the army, too eye-catching, I still let the caravan guards protect it, so it is safer."

"Okay, be careful along the way, and when you come back, I have a big gift for you."

"Whoa".

After saying goodbye to Cao Cao, Li Mo was not idle, he was directly preparing to travel, and at the same time began to gather his own escort team, as for Cao Cao's so-called gift, Li Mo didn't care about it at all, in Li Mo's eyes, it was nothing more than promotion, Li Mo really didn't want to accept it, it was better to cash it out, and it would be more suitable for Li Mo to get more land in Yanzhou when the time came

At night, in Li Mo's other mansion, dozens of young adults were dressed neatly waiting for Li Mo to appear, this is Li Mo's so-called escort team, don't look at only a few dozen people, but this is Li Mo's careful cultivation

"My lord, everyone is ready".

At this time, a man dressed in a simple but extraordinarily strong man came to Li Mo's side and said, this is Li Mo's carefully cultivated Zhang Kun, and he is specially responsible for the existence of the escort team, this escort team of only a few dozen people is Li Mo's family, everyone is carefully cultivated, and the training is no less than the training of the special forces in later generations, all of them are absolutely very good, and under the leadership of Zhang Kun, they have exterminated a lot of bandits and bandits, all of whom have seen blood

And Zhang Kun himself was actually a general in the Yellow Turban Army before he surrendered to Li Mo, and his force value was definitely not comparable to Dian Wei, but it would not be worse than ordinary generals, but Li Mo re-endowed the other party Zhang Kun's identity, and also erased and took care of Zhang Kun's family in the past, Zhang Kun was also completely loyal to Li Mo, and cultivated this special escort team for Li Mo, Li Mo would not use it easily, unless it was something special or particularly expensive

In this period, the warlords were fighting, the people were miserable, and there were naturally a lot of bandits and bandits, especially many bandits and bandits were composed of deserters, and the Montenegrin Army was one of the most famous, but there were still a lot of bandits and bandits in various places, after all, it was too bitter as a common people, not only to face heavy taxes, but also to face the oppression of officials and clans, there was no way to live at all, and naturally many people chose to become bandits

"Well, in advance, I have already said hello to the city defense army, go out of the city at night, and leave early tomorrow morning."

"Whoa".

This is why Cao Cao and the others are not here at this time, otherwise they would have to be surprised by Li Mo's special escort team, everyone's equipment is very sophisticated, even the bow and crossbow in their hands are very special, this is also Li Mo spent points to exchange, Li Mo has exchanged a lot of design drawings, but many things cannot be made in this period due to material restrictions, and can only be exchanged with points

And the bow and crossbow in the hands of these people is actually the famous compound bow, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, with an average shooting distance of 100 to 150 steps, with the blessing of Li Mo's compound bow, these people can easily shoot the enemy within 200 steps

And it's not just a compound bow, but also the existence of a crossbow, for convenience, although there is no obvious armor, but everyone is wearing a special inner armor under the outer coat, and the defense is no worse than the armor, but it can be worn closely, and the effect is very outstanding

And early the next morning, Li Mo took Dian Wei and a lot of goods directly on the road, and went straight to Yuzhou, this road is indeed delayed a lot of time, especially in this cold winter wax moon, there are few people who come out to walk, including the same businessmen, so although Li Mo and his party have been delayed on the road a little more, fortunately, there is no hindrance, when they pass through some cities for supply, it is nothing more than a waste of some money, and they can easily pass
