The outcome of the war can be determined by the amount of troops alone? If that is true, it is better for everyone to recruit soldiers and then pull them out to compare the number of people. Why do you have to fight to the death? After hearing Sun Gan's words, I thought to myself, but I did not directly refute him. After all, military affairs are not his leaders. I then asked my elder brother: "Brother, how do you think Yuan Shao can compare to Cao's thief?"

Although my elder brother regarded Cao Cao as his biggest enemy in his life, he did not randomly comment on his personal likes and dislikes. After a moment of pondering, he replied slowly: "It's not as good as that! Mr. Yuan likes to plan but never stops, is fierce and brave, is big and likes to be good at merit, acts quite unintentionally, and his civil and military officials are difficult to stop fighting, and his government orders are different. Compared to the Cao thief... it can be said that it is far from the same." Speaking of this, the elder brother suddenly had a glimmer in his eyes, as if he understood my intention.

Awesome, my brother may not have extremely high talent in military and political aspects, but his ability to look at people is not inferior to anyone. His evaluation of Yuan Shao is almost the same as that of Cao Cao in history books. I couldn't help but applaud, "That's right. In this Guandu Battle, Yuan's army's strength was far superior to Cao's army. With Yuan Shao as a man, he would definitely be light and unprepared. Cao's thieves have many tricks and many capable people under him, so they will definitely be able to find the weakness of Yuan Shao's army. With the intention to fight against him, I think that Cao's chances of winning are far superior to Yuan Shao."

After hearing my words, my elder brother looked both surprised and happy. When he looked at me, he was surprised, but he was relieved.

The second brother next to him also seemed very shocked and asked, "Third brother, what are you talking about?"

"Food and grass! Our army has less than 5,000 people, and the daily food and grass are already quite considerable. How amazing will Yuan Shao's 500,000 army consume food and grass every day? If Cao thieves succeed in attacking Yuan's army's food and grass, there will be no food and grass, Yuan Shao's 500,000 army will definitely be defeated without fighting."

The eldest brother closed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and suddenly opened his eyes and said, "What my third brother said is reasonable. In this way, isn't this a good opportunity to attack Cao Zhe?"

"Yes, brother! Cao's thief acts cautiously and will never let the rear be empty. Our army has limited military strength. If we attack rashly, even if we can capture one city and half of the county, there will be great casualties. In the realm, if Cao's thief defeats Yuan's army and leads the victorious army to fight back against our army, our army will be difficult to resist."

At this time, everyone in the hall, including the second brother and Sun Gan, knew that attacking Cao Cao was not a wise move at this time.

What I said just now seemed to make my elder brother full of confidence in me, and he asked directly to me: "Since that's the case, where do I think we should go?"

I stood up and shouted "Map!"

Under my command, the personal soldiers carried a screen to the lobby, placed it next to the eldest brother's seat, and hung a map near the ancient city on the screen. I walked over and pointed with my hand on it: "Brother, second brother, everyone, look, this is the ancient city. To the north and west are the land of Cao Cao, and it is not possible to make it. To the south are the boundaries of Liubiao in Jingzhou. Liubiao's soldiers have more food, and it is not something our army can fight. Therefore, the only place our army can march is only There is here." The eyes of the people in the hall gathered along my fingers to a place on the map, "Go east and attack Runan. Gongyou sent someone to inquire about this place before. Runan has now been surrounded by the Yellow Turban... Army (I was originally planning to talk about the Yellow Turban thieves, but Liao Hua, Zhou Cang, and Pei Yuanshao are all from the Yellow Turban Army. Considering that they changed their words to the Yellow Turban Army) Liu Pi and Gongdu have only tens of thousands of mobs in the city. It is not difficult to attack."

The eldest brother nodded slightly and suddenly said with a smile: "Runan is a good place! Maybe we can get Runan without fighting."

Sun Ganqi said, "Lord, but I don't know why this is said?"

"A few days ago, when I was in Yuan Shao in Yecheng, Liu Pi sent someone to invite me to Runan, saying that he would give in to me the county affairs. But it was inconvenient to get out of here, so he did not agree." The eldest brother said with a smile.

"If you can not use weapons, it would be great. Brother, please send someone to Runan to contact Liu Pi as soon as possible. This matter should not be too late. If Liu Pi does not want to surrender, our army can also make plans early!" I said.

"Yeah, Xianhe, I'll beg you to set off today and run to Runan."

"Jian Yong takes the order!"

"Okay! Today's discussion is over here. All the officials will return, and they will take charge of their positions. Yun Chang and Yide, you follow me to the back hall."

……………………………………………………………

My second brother and I followed my elder brother and came to the back hall. Since my elder brother came to the ancient city, I have given the county government to my elder brother and my two elder sisters-in-law to live. Now my second brother and I live in the military camp.

When I arrived at the living room, I was surprised to find that a table of wine and food had been arranged! I looked at my elder brother in confusion. Could it be that it was just to ask me and my second brother to have dinner?

When the elder brother saw my puzzled look, he smiled and said, "Second brother, third brother, don't be confused. I asked you to have a meal for me. The last time we had dinner together was probably in Xuzhou more than 4 months ago? Our family hasn't been able to have a meal together for such a long time! Alas... it's 4 months!"

Hearing this, the second brother, who had always been calm, suddenly became excited and said, "Brother, don't be sad. Haven't we brothers been reunited again?"

"Well! Come on, second brother, third brother, sit down." The eldest brother pulled me and me to his left and right sides respectively to sit down.

After a while, the two sisters-in-law and Guan Ping also came to the hall one after another and found a seat on the table to sit down. Since my second brother and I don’t have a family yet, and my eldest brother has no children yet. So the six people on the table are all of us, the "best son".

The eldest brother raised the wine glass in front of him and said excitedly: "Liu Bei can only meet again after the brothers and their husbands are reunited. Second, third brother, wife, Ping'er, let's drink this cup together."

The four of us men raised our glasses and drank them all. The two sisters-in-law only tasted a little, but they might not be able to drink, and their faces turned red immediately. Gan and Mi sisters-in-law were all beauties in a million. After drinking, their pink faces were red and bright. My second brother and I didn't look at each other, and there was no reaction. After the young Guan Ping accidentally glanced at the two sisters-in-law, he was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned red. He immediately lowered his head and dared not look at him again.

Fortunately, not long afterwards, the two sisters-in-law said they were unwell and sued the crime and left first. The atmosphere on the table immediately became lively. Several men kept drinking and drinking.

After drinking for 30 years, my elder brother said to me with joy: "Third brother, in the past, my second brother and I advised you to be more cautious in your actions and not be reckless and be more careful in everything, but you always don't listen. Unexpectedly, after several months of separation from us, you will be much more steady and think more and think more and think good at your studies. I am really happy for you! Come, my elder brother, I wish you a drink!"

Feeling the sincere joy of my elder brother, I raised my glass and drank it all. Put down the wine glass, I took a deep breath and said, "Brother, in the past, I have ruined major events many times because of my reckless behavior. But from now on, I will not repeat the same mistakes and will not drag down my two brothers again."

The eldest brother looked at me with an excited face and smiled and said, "Silly third brother, we are brothers one day and brothers one life, what are the burdens? But Brother Yu already owe you and Yunchang too much in this life." After a pause, the eldest brother sighed lightly and said, "Actually, among the three brothers, you are the most educated. If it weren't for the recklessness, you can see many things further and more accurately than us. Third brother, Brother, I hope you can give more attention and give me more advice in the future." (Zhang Fei is a child of a noble family and received a good education in his early years. In this regard, he must surpass Guan Yu, and even Liu Bei, who was a disciple of Lu Zhi)

"Well, brother, please don't worry, I won't let you down."

"Okay! Second brother, third brother, and Ping'er, let's have another drink."

"Dry!"
