Lord of the Gaming World Chapter 311: Cao Cao’s last chance

"Xu Sheng and Zheng Zhilong, under the guise of Beihai Xiang Kong Rong, deceived the city of Jimo. The Fubo Army has occupied Jimo, and they led the soldiers of Jimo to attack Jiaodong County!"

"Let them do what they want."

Chu Tian retreated to Juxian County, the government seat of Beihai Kingdom. Hearing Xu Sheng and Zheng Zhilong's actions, he couldn't help but be surprised by their performance.

Xu Sheng's forces in Chutian were considered second-rate generals, while Zheng Zhilong was a first-rate general at sea, but only second- and third-rate generals on land. The two of them cooperated, and they were able to attack the city and pull out the village on land.

After Zhao Gongzi fled to the state of Qi, there were only a small number of defenders left in Beihai Kingdom and Donglai County, and the Fubo Army could pacify the counties.

At present, Fubo Corps has no other combat targets. It is also good to have Xu Sheng and Zheng Zhilong fight in Qingzhou.

Chutian prepared two things in Beihai Kingdom. One is to send people to guard Beihai Kingdom, and to spy on the remaining four counties of Qingzhou at any time. Second, they captured Yingling County, which Taishi Ci had been defending, and captured Taishi Ci.

After preparing for two things, Chutian can return to Xiacheng to farm.

Chu Tian just wanted to farm well in Xuzhou, but the restless princes around him came to provoke them one by one. Chu Tian was also helpless.

Linzi in Qingzhou had Tiandan defending the city, and it took a long time to capture the city defended by Tiandan.

"The reason why Zhao Gongzi and Tian Qi joined forces is because the lord is aggressive, and their lips and teeth are cold. If the lord stops the offensive, maybe they will fight against each other."

It was not Fang Xuanling who persuaded Chu Tian this time, but Lu Su.

After he knew that Chutian was easy to get along with, he began to put forward his own opinions. Although Lu Su was still very immature compared to Fang Xuanling, who had already turned into an old fritter, he was a plastic talent after all.

"That's what I meant. I ordered Le Yi to quickly capture Yingling County and govern Beihai Kingdom. Fang Xuanling, you are responsible for recruiting all the township braves in the counties of Beihai Country, and use 200,000 township braves to completely fill up Yingling. County."

The world of Chu is cruel.

Taishi Ci was unwilling to offer the city to surrender, so he used the crowd tactics commonly used by the Yellow Turbans to forcibly capture Yingling County.

Taishi Ci cannot be made a nail for Beihai Kingdom, otherwise Beihai Kingdom will not be able to stabilize and develop, and it will also hold back the military strength of a main army in Chutian.

Many counties in Beihai Kingdom are looking down at the wind. Fang Xuanling recruited 20,000 to 40,000 villagers from each county and gathered in Yingling County.

The Leyi Legion has ordered craftsmen to build hundreds of trebuchets during this period, bombard the camp with stones every day, and destroy fortifications such as arrow towers and city gate towers.

Taishi Ci personally defended the city and used his longbow to shoot down enemies who were trying to get close to the city wall.

Le Yi observed Yingling City for days, and basically figured out Taishi Ci's defense.

When it comes to commanding troops and horses and attacking and defending cities, Taishi Ci is still a lot worse than Le Yi.

"The lord has given an order to recruit 200,000 people to come, and ask the general to capture the Yingling within a month and capture the defender Taishi Ci alive."

Chutian sent Zhao Yun, a highly armed man, to serve as Le Yi's bodyguard and assist Le Yi in conquering Yingling.

Le Yi said: "If 200,000 people are in place, within 15 days, the city can be captured. As for Taishi Ci's life and death, there is no guarantee."

In Taishan County, the prefect Li Guang and military advisor Du Ruhui led the temporarily formed Taishan Corps to attack Jinan.

The Taishan Corps is not the main army, but a defensive army, similar to Zang Ba and Sun Guan's Langya Defensive Corps, and Mi Fang's Donghai Defensive Corps.

Du Ruhui rectified the originally surrendered troops from Taishan County, and temporarily formed the Taishan Corps according to Chutian's order. There are a total of 40,000 people, which is the largest local army.

Defense Corps can be used to aggressively attack, and offense is the best defense.

Li Guang led the Taishan Corps to invade Jinan, and went straight to Dongping Mausoleum, the seat of Jinan's government.

The Qingzhou Prefect was caught off guard by the powerful assault of Chutian forces.

It was hard for him to imagine that the Xuzhou Corps was fighting on multiple fronts!

The Xuzhou Legion is like a few greedy pythons, entangling and strangling the Qingzhou Legion.

The Qingzhou Prefect dispatched Tian Dan, the most powerful general under his command, to successfully block the Xuzhou Army in Qi, but the Taishan Army began to attack Jinan, causing the Qingzhou Prefect a headache.

"You go to Jinan to support."

The governor of Qingzhou once again dispatched troops from Pingyuan County to support Jinan.

He sent almost all the elite soldiers under his command to block Xuzhou Mu's attack.

Qingzhou Prefect and Zhao Gongzi only have four counties left, while Chutian has the strength of eight commanderies. The huge gap in territory makes Qingzhou Prefect feel somewhat hopeless.

He can only adopt the same tactics as Mr. Zhao, to keep the wall clear and wait for the situation to change.

Sometimes there's a long delay and no one knows what's going to happen. For example, if Xuzhou Mu Chu Zimou overindulged and died, the Xuzhou army's offensive against Qingzhou would naturally collapse.

As soon as Li Guang's Taishan Corps entered Jinan, the defenders from all parts of Jinan immediately fled to Dongping Mausoleum and joined the defenders of Dongping Mausoleum.

"Li Guang, the flying general, attacked Jinan!"

"Xuzhou Mu Chu Zimou attacked Beihai Kingdom!"

"Beijing Xiang Kong Rong seeks to capture Xuzhou Mu Chuzi alive!"

As the most powerful prince in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Xuzhou Mu's actions have attracted the attention of various princes, and each prince is very concerned about the development of Chutian.

Of course, they are not caring with good intentions, but they can't wait to get up the next day, and Chutian can disappear out of thin air.

Now Chutian's territory has changed from five counties in Xuzhou to eight counties, and it has become the largest prince south of the Yellow River.

The surrounding princes were suppressed by Chu Tian, ​​and none of them improved.

Zhao Gongzi was beaten to the point that there was only one state of Qi left. Tian Ji, the subordinate of Tian Qi, the governor of Qingzhou, lost 30,000 elite soldiers. Yuan Shu was defeated and vomited blood. Cao Cao is struggling...

"Wen Ruo, Gongda, the situation is not good for me now, how can I suppress Xuzhou Chu Zimou?"

Cao Cao was very worried when he found Xun You and Xun Yu.

Chutian suppressed the surrounding princes. At present, the only princes around who are capable of resisting are Tian Qi, the prefect of Qingzhou, and Cao Cao, the prefect of Yanzhou.

Even though Xun You and Xun Yu were the masterminds and the talents of Wang Zuo, they were silent in the face of the absolute gap in national power.

Chutian has eight prefectures, Gongziwen has two prefectures, a total of ten prefectures.

Cao Cao has only three counties.

Xun You, as Wang Zuo, has a huge bonus to the territory, but Chutian also has a Li Kui, who can bring a bonus to grain output every year, and has a large number of civil servants to govern. Therefore, Xuzhou's development speed is faster than Yanzhou, only Fast or slow.

"Even the two are helpless..."

Cao Cao's throat was dry.

If both Xun You and Xun Yu had nothing to do with Chu Zi, Cao Cao would not be able to support him alone.

The current Cao Cao seems to be relying on Yuan Shao, but in fact he cannot get Yuan Shao's effective support. The reason is simple, Yuan Shao is trying to expel Liu Bei's forces from Julu County and has no time to distract himself.

Unless Yuan Shao eliminates Liu Bei, it is possible to support Cao Cao.

This may be the worst Cao Cao in history. When his opponent has eight counties, he has only three counties.

Finally, Xun You, the mastermind, couldn't stand it any longer: "My subordinates mentioned this matter with several foreigners, and asked them for a solution to the situation. Some foreigners thought that they could annex Yuan Gonggong's troops and occupy them. Yuzhou, with Yuzhou and Yanzhou as its territory, can compete with Chu Zimou. This may be the last chance for the lord. Once Chu Zimou continues to grow, there will be no good opportunity."

When Cao Cao heard Xun You's words, his eyes gradually became brighter.

Yuan Shu Kong had a huge territory, but he was mediocre. He was beaten to death by ten thousand people from Yang Ye, and he was taught a good lesson by Chu Tian in Pengcheng. Cao Cao was dissatisfied with him.

"But, will the aliens support me?"

Cao Cao sat on the ground and discussed the general situation with Xun You and Xun Yu.

This may be one of the few opportunities for their power.

Xuzhou, Qingzhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, four major states, representing the princes are Chutian, Tian Qi, Cao Cao, Yuan Shu. Among them, Chutian forcibly occupied Taishan County in Yanzhou, Beihaiguo and Donglai County in Qingzhou, equivalent to occupying 1.5 prefectures.

If Chutian's sphere of influence exceeds two prefectures, Cao Cao will have almost no chance of making a comeback.

Xun You analyzed for Cao Cao: "With the reputation of the lord, he has a lot of responses among the aliens. Yuan Shu has a group of alien lords with strength and ambition. Seeing that Yuan Shu cannot defeat Chu Zimou, they will definitely be willing to assist the lord to defeat Chu Zimou. Conspiracy, and then fish in troubled waters, and take advantage of the situation to rise."

"Not boasting, I am indeed quite famous among the aliens."

Cao Cao doesn't know why he is sought after by a large number of aliens. During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, foreigners who came to visit Cao Cao every day could step on Cao Cao's threshold.

If it wasn't for the rise of a Chu Zimou from Xuzhou, Cao Cao, who has a large number of foreigners, might have unified the four states south of the Yellow River, ready to go north to attack Yuan Shao.

Chutian's reputation has also attracted a group of aliens to take refuge in, and the rest who are unwilling to take refuge in Chutian are all ambitious alien lords. Or, they are still reluctant to be above the ten thousand people in their own power.

Xun You said: "That's it. The lord replaced Yuan Gonggong and became a lord across Yanzhou and Yuzhou. He promised that the foreign lords of Yuzhou would split the soil and seal the lords and not interfere with their territory, then the foreign lords could be the lord. Effectiveness. Xuzhou Mu Chuzimou is very powerful, why did the foreign lords of Yuzhou not rely on Chu Zimou, but Yuan Gonggong? It's just that they are unwilling to give up their existing power, status, and have the ambition to compete in the Central Plains. The lord can use it Its ambition..."

"The lord is discussing important matters with Wen Ruo and Gongda. Why don't you call your subordinates? Perhaps, the subordinates have the ability to relieve the lord."

Advisor Cheng Yu interrupted the conversation between Xun You and Cao Cao.

Cheng Yu officially served Cao Cao after Cao Cao was appointed as the prefect of Yanzhou by Jiujiu Lao Qin's report to the emperor.

Cao Cao's talents have been increasing, but Cao Cao's forces have been maliciously targeted by Chu Tian, ​​which makes Cao Cao seem to have not developed.

When Cao Cao saw Cheng Yu's arrival and heard Cheng Yu's tone, it seemed that he could break the deadlock for Cao Cao's forces.

Cheng Yu was sitting in a precarious position: "As Gongda said, it is the only way to defeat Chu Zimou by annexing Yuzhou and combining the strengths of Yan and Yuzhou."

Xun You's vision is very accurate, Cao Cao thought that Cheng Yu had other countermeasures, but he repeated Xun You's strategy, and he was a little disappointed.

"However, the alien lord of Runan County in Yuzhou said that Tang had dispatched a disciple to ask his subordinates to introduce him to the lord. His words were sincere, and his subordinates thought they could unite with him."

This time Cheng Yu's words completely moved Cao Cao.

Xun You just proposed a plan, and the alien lord of Yuzhou has already come to the door.

"There are three people who can be used. First, the prefect of Runan said Tang, he has military commanders and courage. Second, Hou Jing of Shouchun City, he has ambition. Third, the prefect of Jiyin County, son Wen..."

"Why does Gongziwen exist?"

Cao Cao hates Gongzi Wen to the core. If it wasn't for Gongziwen, he would have unified Yanzhou and attacked Xuzhou.

Cheng Yu shook his head: "Why are you fighting with us? It's nothing more than a fight for Yanzhou. Now that Chu Zimou's power is getting bigger and bigger, Gongziwen's power has only expanded from one county to two. If the lord is defeated by Chu Zimou, the two prefectures of Gongziwen will also become the possession of Chu Zimou. If the son wants not to be annexed, he can only choose to join forces with us. Please let the lord put down the relationship with the son. Hatred, join forces to defeat Chu Zimou, and then decide the winner with Gong Ziwen."

"It makes sense..."

Cao Cao was already in a state of serious illness and went to the doctor. He wanted to join forces with Gongziwen to attack Chutian.

"Send someone to contact Hou Jing and Gong Ziwen secretly. In addition, please ask the prefect of Runan to say that the envoy of the Tang Dynasty will come to see me."

Cao Cao finally approved Cheng Yu's proposal.

The prefect of Runan said that Tang secretly joined forces with Cao Cao, and this matter is relatively secret and unknown.

Yuan Shu has been abandoned. Whether it is for Cao Cao or the rising prefect of Runan, Yuan Shu has no value to use.

The prefect of Runan communicated with Cheng Yu~IndoMTL.com~ and then told Cao Cao, in order to hide the sight of the alien spies who were placed beside Cao Cao by Chu Tian.

Chutian has yet to perceive Cao Cao's final struggle.

Chutian defeated the princes around Cao Cao in order to eliminate Cao Cao in one fell swoop, and drove Cao Cao's army to the Yellow River for complete annihilation.

Jiyin County, Dingtao, as a prince who is neither too big nor too small, Gong Ziwen's situation is quite embarrassing - he is caught between the forces of Chutian and Cao Cao.

If he can defeat Cao Cao and occupy Yanzhou before Chutian develops, he can become a great prince. But after Chutian developed, he still did not improve, and the situation was quite embarrassing.

He received a letter from Cao Cao sent secretly. Cao Cao wanted to persuade him to betray his alliance with Chutian and join Yuan Shao's camp.

"Cao Cao has three prefectures, I have two prefectures, and Qingzhou has four other prefectures, making a total of nine prefectures. Yuzhou and Yanzhou's other prefectures are occupied by various lords... Cao Cao is this If you want to fight back, do you want to cooperate with Cao Cao? If Chu Zimou is defeated, it is estimated that Xuzhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and Qingzhou will be reshuffled. The lords of Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and Qingzhou should be eager to reshuffle the four states. Come on, anyone can take the place of Chu Zimou, because apart from Chu Zimou, there is no second prince who has an absolute advantage..."

Gong Ziwen put his hands behind his back and looked in the direction of the Langya Kingdom of Xuzhou, his eyes changing uncertainly.

Cao Cao's proposal to unite the lords of the three states, defeat Chu Zimou, and reshuffle the cards will undoubtedly have a certain temptation for Gong Ziwen who wants to compete in the Central Plains.
