Jizhou, Changshan Kingdom, Zhending County.

Cao Cao frowned, and he summoned all his advisers to the tent to discuss strategies to deal with Pei Qing.

When dealing with Yuan Shao, the strategists offered their own suggestions. They were like Liangping, and they were all in a row, but now they were all like ducks pinched their necks, speechless.

"Donalds, the country is in danger. I treat you all the time. Why isn't anyone giving advice today?" Cao Cao's face was gloomy and he asked to his advisers.

However, many of the strategists were still at a loss. They all sighed secretly, and some were even making their own plans.

Cao Cao had no choice but to look at the top strategists and sighed at Cheng Yu dejectedly: "Zhongde, what do you think we should do?"

Cheng Yu was also very painful at this time, because he knew that Pei Qing's army had started a full-scale war, and in order to eliminate Yuan Shao in a short time, his side drew a large number of troops, which resulted in the defense force everywhere being too weak to resist the opponent's attack. Therefore, his hometown might be over, and the hometown he had defended for the death of the past finally fell into the enemy's hands.

But he wanted to find a way to solve the current crisis for Cao Cao. After all, Cao Cao treated him well and could not be ungrateful and give up.

Cheng Yu thought for a while, and then said, "Since we know that we cannot resist the enemy's offensive, we might as well shrink our troops completely and withdraw all the troops from Luoyang and Yanzhou. At the same time, we forcibly force the emperor to climb the city and persuade Pei Qing to leave. No matter what, Pei Qing should respect the emperor on the surface. If the emperor personally advises him, Pei Qing will not withdraw his troops. In this way, we can still protect Jizhou to gain a precious respite. At the same time, we must make a surprise plan to destroy Bohai County first. Yuan Shang was young, and Bohai was only in control of Shen Pei and Feng Ji.

In his hands, although Shen Pei is a planner, he is strong in nature and the soldiers may not be willing to accept it. The upper and lower levels are severely divided. This is our opportunity. Bohai and Hejian are dependent on each other. As long as the Bohai Sea is captured, Hejian can naturally surrender, or the lord can use Yuan Shang and Mrs. Liu to force Hejian to surrender. Bohai and Hejian are gone, so it is meaningless to defend the Zhongshan Kingdom. However, before this, we must find a way to defend Changshan Kingdom. Pei Qian personally led his troops to attack and came in full force. We must deal with it carefully."

"Fengxiao, Zhongda, what do you think?" Cao Cao nodded slightly after hearing Cheng Yu's words. Cheng Yu only proposed a general plan, how to attack Bohai Kingdom, how to defend Changshan, and whether it would be effective to force the young emperor to persuade Pei Qing to retreat? All of this is unknown, so he has to listen to the specific things.

Sima Yi first said, "It is easy to attack Bohai County, but we need to make sacrifices. To create chaos in Bohai, the best way is to send dead soldiers to sneak into Bohai County, assassinate Feng Ji directly, and point the mastermind at Shen Pei. In this way, the master's country is suspicious, and the situation is chaotic, and Shen Pei is suspicious, so we must be disconnected from the upper and lower levels. We will take the opportunity to buy Shen Pei's people around him with a lot of money and will definitely be able to enter the city."

"Dead soldiers? This is not difficult to find." Cao Cao was a monarch in the country, and he still had the ability to cultivate some dead soldiers. So he secretly arranged with his eldest son Cao Ang and ordered him to select some shrewd dead soldiers, disguised himself as the city to assassinate Feng Ji, and claimed that it was appointed by Shen Pei. All of this was exactly consistent with the strategy proposed by Sima Yi. However, at the critical moment, Guo Jia proposed that the final result may not be Feng Ji's death. If Feng Ji did not die, the internal division effect would be better.

Cao Cao thought Guo Jia's suggestion was very correct, so he specifically explained that there was no need to stab Feng Ji to death, just let him be injured.

At the same time, Cao Cao sent his appointed governor Xiahou Yuan to give up the area south of the Yellow River, and secretly gathered the soldiers in Leling County on the plain. As soon as the time came, he immediately attacked Nanpi County, the capital of Bohai County.

As for Yecheng, we must naturally send a steady and good guardian to guard the situation. At the same time, we will send a ruthless official to force the young emperor to accept their proposals and personally climb the city to persuade Pei Qing to withdraw his troops. If the young emperor is a master who does not cry when he sees the coffin, he should teach him some lessons when necessary, and even do not stop and burn bother to death when it is very necessary.

The first general to defend the city was naturally Cao Ren. Although he had lost his life in Xuzhou before, it was not a war crime, mainly because Cao Cao did not rescue him in time and lost Taishan County. Therefore, Pei Qing ordered Cao Ren to be the prefect of Wei County, and Sima Yi was also a military advisor. He sent official Xie Wu to force the young emperor to agree to persuade Pei Qing to retreat. Xie Wu had participated in the murder of Dong Cheng and noble Dong, and Pei Qing hated evil, so Cao Cao expected that Xie Wu did not dare to have any bad thoughts.

As for the guardian of Changshan Kingdom, Cao Cao was naturally responsible for it. He used Guo Jia and Cheng Yu as military advisors, Xiahou Dun, Cao Hong, Dian Wei, Le Jin, Li Dian, Cao Xiu, Cao Chun, Cao Zhen and others as assistants to build a strong city Tangchi. On the one hand, it puts pressure on the high school of Zhongshan Kingdom, and on the other hand, it is used to resist Pei Qian's attack.

It can be said that Cao Cao's current strategy is very appropriate. Even if Pei Qing is here, he may have to come up with such a proper countermeasure. After all, this is a strategy jointly developed by Guo Jia, Sima Yi and Cheng Yu, three top strategists. Although Cheng Yu is a little worse in certain terms, his ruthlessness is not as good as Sima Yi. Only he can come up with the idea of ​​forcing the little emperor to persuade Pei Qing to retreat.

Moreover, in Yecheng and Changshan, one is Sima Yi as a military advisor and the other is Guo Jia as a military advisor, which is enough to resist the top wise men in the world. It is a clever plan for the two to divide the work and cooperate.

However, although strategy can play a great role and sometimes reverse the situation, when the intelligence level of military advisors on both sides is similar, absolute strength is the key to determining the outcome.

Cao Cao naturally understood this truth, but at this time, he could only treat the dead horse as a living horse. In fact, although Yecheng and Changshan are important, they are not the most important. The most important thing for Cao Cao is whether he can conquer the Bohai Kingdom. After all, it is located on the beach. Even if it really fails, he can escape from the sea. If this retreat is blocked, it is his real despair.

Fortunately, there was no way out. Not long after, news came that Feng Ji was assassinated and was lucky enough to be seriously injured. The murderer was captured on the spot. After severe torture, he finally admitted that the real murderer behind the scenes was to assist Yuan Shang's Shen Pei with him. It happened that a few days ago, Shen Pei and Feng Ji had an argument because of a little friction. Feng Ji had no reason to doubt Shen Pei anymore. However, for the sake of the overall situation, Shen Pei did not tell the real murderer behind the scenes. Later, under Mrs. Liu's questioning, Feng Ji's confidant blurted out.

The news was quickly passed, and in an instant, the public opinion was in an uproar. All the accusations pointed to Shen Pei. Shen Pei was wronged and had no choice but to resign from his post to clarify his thoughts. However, he did not expect more suspicions to follow, because if he had not felt guilty, why would he quit his post?

Just when the city was in chaos, Xiahou Yuan led his army to the Bohai Sea, and then led his army to a sudden attack on Nanpi County, the unprepared Bohai County, the capital of the unsuspecting Bohai County.
