In his impression, although Cao Cao had been suppressing Liu Bei all the time, the fastest time he took was a month before he took Liu Bei and captured Xuzhou.
Although a month may seem like a long time, when you include marching and fighting, a month is really not long at all.
That's why Dong Yu was certain that Cao Cao could not defeat Liu Bei within half a month.
But everything is accidental, and he is unwilling to take the risk.
Since Guo Jia suggested it, he just did it. It was nothing more than letting Luoyang send troops first.
"My lord is wise."
"Spring arrives early in Luoyang, so now is the perfect time to send troops."
Guo Jia nodded and immediately gave Dong Yu a thumbs up.
Wise, indeed very wise.
It's much better than some lords who don't listen to reasonable opinions.
Guo Jia and the others were actually very comfortable with this.
A counselor.
Apart from giving advice, there is nothing else to do.
If their masters don't even adopt the strategies and suggestions they put forward, then aren't they just working in vain?
Although workers are ecstatic about white-collar wages, they are also afraid that the company will go bankrupt.
Otherwise, where can I find such a good job in the future?
This time, Dong Yu was able to mobilize more than 100,000 troops and horses for the southern expedition.
Among these armies, there are 70,000 to 80,000 elite soldiers. Although the rest have little experience in battle, they are also young and strong people who have killed people and seen blood.
If we have to compare, Dong Yu's 70,000 to 80,000 elite troops are stronger than Cao Cao's elite troops, while Dong Yu's 20,000 to 30,000 new recruits are weaker than Cao Cao's elite troops, but stronger than ordinary troops.
Dong Yu has always pursued a system of elite troops rather than a system of large numbers to satisfy his needs.
Because on the battlefield, no matter how many miscellaneous soldiers and fools there are, they are useless. Instead, they will be hindered by some unexpected situations.
If victory really had to be won by numbers, Dong Yu would have no problem mobilizing 70,000 to 80,000 county soldiers from the many counties under his jurisdiction.
Besides, there are Zhang Yan's tens of thousands of Black Mountain troops farming in Zhongshan County, serving as a buffer between Jizhou and Youzhou.
So if he really wants to win by numbers, Dong Yu can assemble a mixed army of more than 200,000 within two months.
Is this the combat effectiveness? I am afraid it is not as good as a hundred thousand elite soldiers.
Xuzhou·Xia Pi
Just as Dong Yu had begun to send troops south, the war in Xuzhou continued to take turns.
Cao Cao spent a large sum of money and made great promises to bribe Zang Ba and other Taishan bandits who had remained neutral.
Zang Ba led his army southward and, while occupying Langya State, also ravaged Donghai County, which was adjacent to Xia Pi.
It can be said that the Central Plains is now in chaos.
"Uh...Give me...Give me wine!!"
Zhang Fei was drunk, with a hint of red on his dark face.
"General, General, something bad has happened!"
"Zang Ba, Sun Guan, Wu Dun, Yin Li, and other Taishan bandits attacked and plundered Donghai County. The governor of Donghai County was beheaded."
Cao Bao ran in with a panicked look on his face and said to Zhang Fei urgently.
"What's the fuss about?"
"I told you not to make noise!!"
Zhang Fei threw a wine jar at Cao Bao, which scared him.
In his haste to dodge, although he avoided the head, his body was hit by the wine jar and he fell to the ground.
"I told you not to make any noise!"
Zhang Fei ran over angrily and slapped Cao Bao in the face again and again.
Cao Bao is very pitiful.
Also innocent!
He clearly came to report the news.
As a result, he was beaten into a pig's head by Zhang Fei, who was drunk and violent, for no reason.
"Wang Ga Da!"
"Hu Dan and Zhang Lao San!"
"You're going to die a miserable death!"
Cao Bao cursed angrily while applying medicine to himself with great difficulty.
Don't hit people in the face.
As a result, Zhang Laosan hit him in the face!
Now he can't even curse people clearly.
He didn't understand. When Zhang Laosan swore to Lao Liu, didn't he agree that he would never drink?
Why the hell are you drinking again?
It was his own bad luck that he went to report the news at this time.
"Hiss... Ouch~"
"It hurts so much."
Cao Bao has one big eye and one small eye, and his mouth was crooked from being beaten.
