Tao Qian's army had reached the north of Changyi County, the capital of Shanyang County, and Cao and Yuan troops had already reached Jinxiangcheng in the north. As long as they advanced westward for a distance, the final decisive battle between the two sides would break out in Changyi County.

The situation is now like this. The Cao-Yuan coalition, the Yuan Shu coalition and the Tao Qian army are bound together. If Tao Qian's army continues to move forward, they will inevitably encounter Cao-Yuan coalition first. This is definitely not what Tao Qian wants to see. Although he wants to gain some benefits in Yanzhou, he does not want to lose his troops. So after he continues to move forward for a distance, he finds a small city to station. His reason is also very sufficient, that is, when Cao-Yuan army attacks Changyi County, they can provide support from the rear. If the situation allows, he can even go around Shanyang County and attack the rear of Cao-Yuan's forces, putting strong pressure on them.

Although Tao Qian's reason is high-sounding, anyone who is a little smarter can think that this is just his procrastination strategy. Even Tao Qian feels that his approach will be despised.

But the result was not the case. After Tao Qian gave this reason, no one in Shanyang County jumped out to refute it. Of course, this was not very accurate. Yuan Shu was about to send someone to question Yuan Shu, but he was persuaded by Fengyunjihui. Although Fengyunjihui himself did not have the ability to affect Yuan Shu's behavior, there were two legions of Baiyun City in Changyi County! Especially Huang Zhong, who is a master in the realm of heaven and man, Yuan Shu had to sell this face.

Although Tao Qian was a little curious about this result, he didn't think much about anything else. He stopped in this small town with peace of mind.

Cao and Yuan were not idle. Although they had to divide their troops to defend due to the harassment of the two major fleets of Baiyun City, the total number of troops that remained to attack Shanyang County was still nearly eight million. Don’t underestimate these eight million troops. The combat effectiveness was definitely more than twice as strong as the more than 10 million troops led by Chen Wen before. If Chen Wen had such an eight million army at that time, he would not have been beaten by Baiyun City without the power to fight back. Now, Yuan Shao occupied five million of the eight million troops of Cao Yuan, and Cao Cao only had three million, which shows the current strength comparison of the two major forces. Of course, this result is not necessarily accurate. After all, the tiger and leopard cavalry under Cao Cao is not comparable to those of ordinary troops under Yuan Shao, so the gap between the two sides is actually not that big.

Most of these eight million troops are composed of seventh-level soldiers, while the remaining 30% are all eighth-level soldiers, so their combat effectiveness is naturally self-evident. Now these troops are rushing towards Changyi County with a storm, no wonder Tao Qian avoids the edge.

The power of the Cao-Yuan coalition is indeed very strong, but now the combined army represented by Baiyun City and Yuan Shu is also not weak. First of all, in terms of high-end force, with the support of the two main legions of Baiyun City, it is no worse than that of the Cao-Yuan coalition. The combined number of seventh and eighth-level soldiers of the other major forces is no less than four million, and there are also a large number of soldiers below the sixth level. Compared with Changyi County, the results are still unpredictable.

...

The decisive battle in Changyi County has not yet broken out. Another thing that surprised the world has happened.

This matter was created by Yang Tian and he had planned it for a long time.

Several main legions of Baiyun City attacked the entire line, attacking Xuzhou with lightning speed, and captured one-third of the land south of the Huai River within one day. There was no momentum of stopping, and the army continued to advance.

Although Tao Qian had transferred the main army from this area and transferred the same number of ordinary troops, how could these troops with the highest strength of only the sixth level be the opponents of the tiger and wolf army of Baiyun City? Whether it is a siege or a wild encounter, the entire battlefield is completely one-sided.

No one would doubt Baiyun City's determination to seize the entire area south of Xuzhou's Huai River. If Tao Qian cannot return to help in time, then losing this large piece of land will be a foregone conclusion.

Tao Qian got the news very quickly, but his first reaction when he got the news was that he didn't believe it. Isn't Baiyun City stalemate with Cao and Yuan's coalition forces? Why did he have the idea of ​​Xuzhou? Moreover, now he has sent troops to Cao Cao's forces. As the saying goes, the enemy's enemy is an allies. How can this sunshine attack his allies?

Not only Tao Qian couldn't figure it out, but Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, and even Yuan Shu couldn't figure it out. Perhaps the only one who knows more about the matter here is Xuanyuan Sword and Fengyun Jihui.

These people were puzzled, but they did not stop what they were doing. Cao Cao and Yuan Shao still ordered the army to continue to advance to Changyi County. Anyway, this matter was a good thing for the two of them, because both Sunshine and Tao Qian were enemies to them. Now the enemy began to fight in the nest, so how could they be unhappy?

As for Tao Qian, he was like an ant on a hot pan, hurriedly trying to return to Xuzhou to resist the attack of Baiyun City's army. He did not forget to express his anger to Yang Tian in his heart, but he just expressed it in his heart. He was not stupid enough to question Yang Tian. The conflict between him and Baiyun City can be said to be completely formed by himself. He had to admit this even if he had not been on the southern border of Xuzhou, Baiyun City might have been named Wuming now.

I have to say that Yang Tian’s move was indeed done without any leakage, making people unable to get a handle. Perhaps some people would say that Xuzhou and Baiyun City are now comrades on the same front, and his approach is to stab the knife in the back, but one thing cannot be ignored, that is, Yang Tian has never publicly said that Baiyun City and Xuzhou are allies, not that Xuzhou itself joins the opposition to the Cao Yuan Alliance, so if someone questioned Yang Tian for this reason, it would be untenable.

From the southeastern part of Yanzhou where the main army of Xuzhou is currently located, tens of thousands of miles away from the southern part of Xuzhou. It is obviously impossible for the Xuzhou army to return to the rescue, and it is obviously impossible to rely on normal marching. The only way is to use the teleportation array. The place where the Xuzhou army is currently staying is a small city, and there are teleportation arrays, but when the leading generals came to the teleportation array, they suddenly realized that they were not qualified to use the teleportation array.

This is not surprising. After all, in the current chaotic times, the teleportation array of one force cannot be opened to another force without restrictions. However, when a leading general went to find the city lord in this city to let him open his authority, he found that the city lord was not in the city. Not to mention the city lord, even some people with authority to manage the affairs were not there. In this way, they could not help but suspect that there was something tricky here.
