In Jixian County, Youzhou, four legions arrived on the battlefield one after another, forming three camps. Liu Bei chose to stand in the same camp as Yuan Shao, located in the south of the battlefield, Huma in the northwest, and Mingguan in the northeast.

With more than 800,000 professional soldiers, the elite armies of the three princes in Hebei chose to fight in Jixian. Whichever side wins Youzhou may become the largest prince in Hebei, and has the qualifications to cross the Yellow River and compete in the Central Plains!

"If you lose this time, it will be difficult to get another chance to enter the customs."

Mingguan, led by a group of fierce generals, came to the front of the formation to observe the other armies.

A large number of cavalry such as Li Jiajun, Guan Ning cavalry, Murong Xianbei Longcheng cavalry, and low-level Liaodong cavalry entered the pass. Tianxiong army, late Ming Qin army, Liaodong heavy infantry and other infantry and crossbowmen were on display. A large number of Wuhuan tribes and Xianbei tribes

He was attracted by Yao Guangxiao and Fan Wencheng and came to participate in the battle for Youzhou.

"My lord, give me one hundred thousand cavalry, so that I can completely defeat the enemy army!"

Chang Yuchun encountered a strong enemy and became even more courageous. He asked Mingguan for 100,000 cavalry to defeat Hu Ma and Yuan Shao.

"General Chang, don't worry. Liu Bei and Yuan Shao have joined forces. We can join forces with Hu Ma to take the lead in destroying Liu Bei and Yuan Shao."

Mingguan looked to the south. All the main forces of Liu Bei and Yuan Shao in the south belonged to local princes supported by aliens. And he and Huma belonged to completely alien forces.

The north and south sides each had 400,000 troops and joined forces in Jixian.

The Yan Cavalry Guild, which supports Mingguan, continuously sends intelligence from all parties to the Mingguan camp. At the same time, his fierce general Murong Ba uses the Mingguan cavalry camp to recruit Dragon City cavalry to dominate the south.

Hu Ma is stationed in the northwest of Jixian County. Generals Lian Po, Zhao She, Zhao Kuo, Zhou Dewei, Bingzhou Langqi, Tielin Army, and Zhao Bianqi are stationed and patrolling around the camp. There are countless low-level troops.

Hebei can only have one overlord, and these great princes will definitely fight to the death.

Whoever can win the battle in Youzhou can basically declare dominance in Hebei!

"Mingguan takes most of Youzhou, and I take Jizhou. I will definitely win this battle."

Huma was accompanied by Lian Po, one of the four famous generals of the Warring States Period. Although Lian Po was at the bottom of the four famous generals of the Warring States Period, he was still a rare commander and made great military exploits for Huma's control of the state.

The sky above the battlefield in Youzhou was filled with silence and solemn killing.

The vanguards of all parties have fought, and hundreds of people have died, regardless of the winner.

The existence of the vanguard is only to test each other. The real war depends on the main forces of both sides. In order to prepare for the Youzhou War, each party sent scouts to each other to infiltrate and explore each other's strength.

Zhou Dewei rode a war horse and followed Hu Ma. He said to Hu Ma: "The main force of our army is gathered in Youzhou. I am afraid that the merger of the states is prone to changes."

"I will use Li Mu's deputy Sima Shang to guard Jingxing County, Guo Chongtao to guard Huguan, and Lin Xiangru to guard Taiyuan. There is no need to worry."

When Huma fought for Youzhou, he was ready to defend his homeland.

During the Dong Zhuo Rebellion, Yuan Shao proclaimed himself a general of chariots and cavalry, and also led the shepherd of Jizhou. At this time, he had great ambitions, and had the ambition to conquer Liuhe and unify the world.

Although Tian Feng and Ju Shou did not advocate Yuan Shao going north so quickly to compete with Bingzhou and Liaodong princes who had a large number of elite cavalry, since Yuan Shao decided to go north to fight for hegemony, they could only try their best to assist Yuan Shao and win.

In fact, if the opponent is Gongsun Zan who is easy to fall into the trap, he may be able to use Jizhou's powerful crossbow to drive him back, but now Yuan Shao's opponents are the surviving foreign princes, and each prince has more or less think tanks, such as Ming Dynasty.

Guan's think tank, the black-clad prime minister Yao Guangxiao, is probably even more capable of calculation than Tian Feng and Jushou.

"In this battle, Bingzhou and Liaodong have a large number of heavy cavalry, and our chance of winning is only 30%."

"In Youzhou, our army is mainly based on infantry. How can we defeat the enemy?"

After Tian Feng and Jushu had almost complete information on both sides, they concluded that the chance of winning was only 30%.

Yuan Shao's army was mainly composed of infantry and Jizhou crossbowmen. Jizhou strong crossbows and Youzhou assault cavalry were paralleled, but Mingguan and Huma both had many heavy infantry and heavy cavalry.

The Liaodong Iron Mine in Mingguan allows Mingguan to equip a large number of heavy armored troops. The coal and iron ore produced in Bingzhou in Huma can also be used to build armor and horse armor to equip heavy cavalry.

Even if the nails are the same, the quality and type of the nails are different.

"Two gentlemen."

Zhao Long put on his armor and hung his sword, and came to see Tian Feng.

Tian Feng and Ju Shou were already very familiar with Yuan Shao's number one general, Zhao Long. This time it was Zhao Long who encouraged Yuan Shao to march to Youzhou and participate in the battle for Youzhou.

"Hu Ma, Mingguan is approaching fiercely, with 400,000 infantry and cavalry. This battle is very dangerous. Liu Xuande may not participate in the battle with all his strength, why do you encourage my lord to come and participate in the battle?"

Tian Feng was deeply disturbed that Zhao Long was standing together with Guo Tu, Shen Pei and other main combatants.

He always thought that Zhao Long was a good friend of him and would stand with him, advocating recharging his strength and waiting for both Huma and Mingguan to suffer losses before taking Youzhou again.

Jushou also had some criticisms: "If we peek at Youzhou in northern Hebei, Huma and Mingguan will definitely fight each other to capture Youzhou. We can reap the benefits. Why do you advocate marching? Don't you give us a good explanation today?

After all, we have severed all ties with each other."

"Two gentlemen, please don't doubt it. You only know what's going on inside the country, but don't know what's going on outside the country. Therefore, your judgment may be biased. This is not your fault."

Zhao Long's words surprised Tian Feng and Ju Shou. The implication of Zhao Long's words was that Tian Feng and Ju Shou's strategies were both wrong: "Do you have a strategy to win?"

Zhao Long could not deny it and told Tian Feng and Ju Shou about his plan. Tian Feng and Ju Shou were surprised.

"If what you said is true, the odds of victory will be much higher, and my lord can dominate Hebei."

Tian Feng and Jushou were finally not so worried.

However, Zhao Long had a worried look on his face: "But if I perform military exploits for your lord, I am afraid that my achievements will shock your lord and make him fearful. If such a day comes, I would like to ask you two gentlemen to intercede for me."

Tian Feng and Ju Shou looked at each other and were in a dilemma. Yuan Shao's rise was inseparable from the support of Zhao Long and Zhao Long's Yiren Guild. The greater the contribution Zhao Long made, the more Yuan Shao was prepared to guard against him. Tian Feng and Ju Shou suddenly

He didn't even know how to answer Zhao Long.

When the birds are gone, a good bow will be hidden. Sometimes, before the birds are gone, a good bow will be hidden.

The method Yuan Shao used to seize Jizhou was also unethical. It would be too chilling if Zhao Long made military exploits for him but was harmed by Yuan Shao instead.

Finally Tian Feng said: "We have been friends for a long time. If the master wants to harm you, we will definitely defend you."

Ju Shou also said: "That's exactly it. If the world is not settled, how can it harm the principle of loyal ministers? Even if the world is stabilized, there is no reason to eradicate the meritorious ministers."

"The two gentlemen have said this, then I will assist the lord with peace of mind and achieve a great victory in the battle of Youzhou."

Zhao Long said this on the surface, but he didn't trust Yuan Shao very much in his heart. Historically, Yuan Shao was not very benevolent in taking Jizhou, and Han Fu didn't know how he really died. There was also Ju Yi who had taken refuge in Yuan Shao and had his own tribe to help him.

When Yuan Shao defeated Gongsun Zan, was he summoned and killed by Yuan Shao?

Now even if Zhao Long wins for Yuan Shao, he will probably end up similar to Ju Yi.

Zhao Long relied on the scouts stationed in Yuan Shao's forces to receive the news in advance.

Tian Feng and Ju Shou did not think that Yuan Shao would do this.

"Three adults, my lord has a move!"

Zhao Long, Tian Feng, and Jushou went to Yuan Shao's army to discuss with Yuan Shao how to defeat the enemy.

Liu Bei led Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Chen Xi and others to Yuan Shao's tent and formed an alliance with Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao and Liu Bei were originally mortal enemies, but at this time they joined forces with each other for their own benefit.

Liu Bei, Chen Xi and others looked at Zhao Long, Tian Feng, and Ju Shou who came in, their eyes flickering. Liu Bei, Chen Xi knew that Zhao Long, Tian Feng, and Ju Shou had seen Liu Bei's strategy of using Yuan Shao's power to attack Huma and Mingguan.

Liu Bei originally faced a pincer attack from three forces, but now he used Yuan Shao to turn it into a decisive battle between two forces against two forces. Liu Bei's approach was somewhat similar to uniting with Sun Quan to fight against Cao Cao.

Zhao Long also looked at Liu Bei and the others, knowing that Liu Bei would not be willing to be subordinate to others. In this cooperation, Liu Bei has not truly surrendered, and the two sides have more of a cooperative relationship.

Yuan Shao is sitting on the throne, and he has a somewhat heroic style. Historically, Yuan Shao was able to unify Hebei, own Youzhou, Jizhou, Bingzhou, Qingzhou, and command the army to go south to Guandu. He was not completely mediocre. At least Yuan Shao's methods were much better than Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shao said: "In the decisive battle in Youzhou, we will be the central force and ambush powerful crossbowmen. Liu Xuande will attack the left wing and Zhao Zilong will attack the right wing. What do you think?"

Many generals, including Liu Bei's generals, looked around.

Yuan Shao's army is mainly infantry, while Liu Bei and Zhao Long have a lot of cavalry, which seems acceptable as two wings.

Zhao Long said: "Our army should camp and wait for Huma to attack the pass."

"Why be timid? If you go out and fight, you can win!"

In Liu Bei's camp, Guan Yu advocated joining the battle and merging the state, with two armies from Liaodong.

The alien strategist Chen Xi stared at Zhao Long, trying to guess from Zhao Long's expression what he was planning.

The northern and southern princes each had 400,000 troops and hoarded a large amount of food and grass. However, Zhao Long's suggestion was to defend?

Liu Bei was not a mortal. He had many generals in his hands. When he saw Zhao Long proposing the tactic of holding on, he did not believe that Zhao Long would choose such a tactic without being sure.

Yuan Shao was dissatisfied with Zhao Long's tactics of retreating after arriving in Youzhou: "Why is that so?"

Zhao Long said: "Mingguan will have future troubles. A war broke out among the lords of the Koryo Kingdom, so Mingguan dared to leave Liaodong and fight for Youzhou. Unfortunately, he was delayed for a long time by Prince Yan and Gongsun Zan. According to my spies in Koryo,

Gaekyong, the stronghold of the southern lords of Koryo Kingdom, has fallen and retreated to Jeonju. Once Koryo Kingdom is unified, Myeonggwan will have endless troubles. Therefore, Myeonggwan must want to win a quick victory. Our army is entrenched and Myeonggwan cannot be attacked urgently.

They will definitely return to Liaodong to interfere in the unification of Korea. The time left for Mingguan is less than a month or two. If Mingguan retreats, only Huma will be left, and together with the soldiers and horses of Youzhou and Jizhou, they can win quickly!

"

Zhao Long's words shocked everyone present.

Especially the local civil servants and generals, they have limited knowledge of other civilizations and rarely take the reactions of other civilizations into consideration.

But Zhao Long always kept an eye on Goryeo.

Koryo was a pawn to contain Mingguan. Zhao Long bet that if Mingguan could not be conquered for a long time, he would return to Liaodong and interfere with Koryo.

"Zhao Long's plan is very reasonable."

Shen Pei asked someone to get the map, and he also had contacts with Zhao Long. Zhao Long, as the most powerful general in Yuan Shao's power, had contacts with Yuan Shao's subordinates. Although Shen Pei often competed with Tian Feng and Ju Suo, the life and death of the force was at stake at this time.

After careful consideration, Shen Pei believed that Zhao Long's strategy was actually very reasonable.

After the unification of Korea, a fire broke out in the backyard of Mingguan.
