Huangfu Song also knew that the attack on Julu was huge, so Huangfu Song would not do such things that harmed himself and benefited others, but he could not sit in the camp all day and did nothing. This was not in line with his mission of suppressing the thieves. Moreover, if he did not fight, he would not show his value. If he did not fight, he would not ask for further excuses. Such various forces Huangfu Song to take action.

Therefore, it is necessary to fight, but there are some considerations to fight.

Less than thirty miles behind Julu City, there are two acropolis, one is the original Pingxiang City and the other is the newly built acropolis. These three cities support each other and form a solid defense circle. Huangfu Song's army is not enough to surround this defense circle as a whole, so the so-called siege of Julu is just a nice noun. In fact, Huangfu Song is just confronting the Yellow Turban Thiefs in the southeast of Julu City.

Huangfu Song only had the Fifth Battalion of the Northern Army and the newly recruited new troops in Jizhou, with a total of 200,000 troops, and the 50,000 cavalry sent by Yan Liang from the Yuan family, plus the Yiren troops that can be mobilized, totaling 400,000 to 500,000. In addition, Dong Zhuo, who is entrenched in Nanhe, may be able to be used at the moment of shutdown, but of course, it may not be used.

He had nearly 800,000 troops in his hand, but it was obviously unrealistic to want to surround a city circle with a radius of dozens of miles, let alone letting the alien troops scattered and stationed, which was simply a move to send sheep into the tiger's mouth.

What Huangfu Song used was to break the attack war, destroy the opponent's logistics channels, eliminate the opponent's vitality, interfere with the opponent's normal production and living order, and slowly consume the war potential of the Yellow Turban thieves from the root.

This method is not bad, it is just easier to be criticized because this method is too slow to take effect. Moreover, it is useless to do so alone. All the troops involved in the siege of the Yellow Turbans must continue to put war pressure on the Yellow Turbans in order to achieve the strategic goals set by Huangfu Song as a whole.

If Huangfu Song was just doing this, this so-called strategic concept would be a joke.

In fact, Yuan Shao, who is now in charge of the Taoist war, is indeed carrying out some raid wars. As for Gongsun Zan, who had just sneaked into the Yellow Turban camp player who cooperated with him, he is managing the newly occupied Shenze County and rectifying the tens of thousands of surrendered soldiers and prisoners he captured. Look at Fang Zhiwen of Anguo and Lu Bu and Liu Yu of Shangquyang. Obviously, they are not interested in active raid wars. Lu Bu has even led the main force back to Yanmen. Only Hao Zhao is left to guard the camp.

After all, there is a gap in combat power on the Yellow Turban Army, which has to be admitted. Secondly, the weakness in cavalry. Julu is not without cavalry, and Zhang Jiao, such as war horses, has also traded a lot from Fang Zhiwen, but cavalry cannot become cavalry with war horses. Cavalry requires technical support from the city and generals. Now only Zhang Niujiao can barely lead cavalry, but Zhang Niujiao compared with Yan Liang, then there is no comparison.

Therefore, the Yellow Turban Army placed its position right, especially after Zhang Jiao was resurrected from the dead, he no longer seemed so impatient, and could make new plans based on the entire strategic concept.

In response to Huangfu Song's attack, Liu Yan's suggestion was to fight the attack, through a certain intensity of battle. Limit the infiltration of the official army to a range of hundreds of miles in the front, so that the vast land behind can be cultivated normally. On the other hand, the aliens occupying small towns should be encouraged to actively develop production and ensure that both production and combat preparations are not missed. We must be mentally prepared for a protracted war.

As a player and a player with an IQ of up to 160, Liu Yan is proficient in general data analysis problems. In fact, she has long seen that although the territory occupied by the Yellow Turban Army can barely support the current population, the continued war to support the army seems to be a bit ineffective. If high-value-added products cannot be developed, and actively trade outside in exchange for relatively cheap food, the failure of the Yellow Turban Army is only a matter of time.

Although Zhang Jiao did not understand this precise calculation method very well, he could understand his weaknesses in essence, so he had a huge tolerance for Fang Zhiwen and even directly sent his daughter to Fang Zhiwen, because Fang Zhiwen was a collaborator who could never be punished for Zhang Jiao. Whether it was from the economic aspects of the entire Yellow Turban Army or from his own life, this was an indisputable fact.

But Zhang Jiao, who is not economically compatible, did not grasp the core of solving this situation of failure, that is, what is a ‘high value-added product’?

In the real world, there are also some barren lands, or places with extremely harsh living environments. This is true in those places because there is really no valuable thing that can be used as economic complementarity.

But in the game, there is no such death. Even on an island where cities can be built, as long as the city appears, the smart brain will definitely prepare something valuable for you so that you can form economic complementarity. Although it may not make a fortune, it will at least allow you to survive and develop.

The Yellow Turban Army now occupies three vast areas, Tongbai Mountain, Taishan Mountain and Taihang Mountain. How could there be no one or two high-value economic products?

This high-level meeting decided two things. One was to strategically determine the fight against the official army. Although the cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army was weak, it had an advantage against the Yiren troops in the court camp. The official army could infiltrate the rear of Julu, and the Yellow Turban Army could also infiltrate the rear of the official army. In this way, as long as you insist on attacking yours and I will attack mine, you can effectively restrain the enemy's infiltration into the rear of Julu, and then take advantage of the current lack of strong attack troops to wipe out those Yiren troops with weak combat power.

This tactic is Tian Ji's theory of horse racing. He uses his upper horse to beat the opponent's lower horse. When the opponent's upper horse turns back to deal with his upper horse, he uses his lower horse to beat the opponent's damaged lower horse. Huangfu Song's middle horse, that is, the infantry unit of the official army, will not participate in the attack war due to speed issues.

The second big problem is to widely search for high-value-added products that can be produced on a large scale. The territory controlled by the Yellow Turban Army is not small anymore. You can always find some things that can be produced on a large scale and are more valuable. This is always better than farming honestly, because although farming is indispensable or insufficient, it is not enough to support the continued battle of the Yellow Turban Army. Now the Yellow Turban Army is plundering the capitals of the uprising when the outbreak of the uprising, but although these capitals are objective, they will always be eaten up one day. Therefore, economic development has now become an important issue for Zhang Jiao, and must be treated seriously and seriously.

So, when Fang Zhiwen and Lu Bu suddenly appeared in Qingzhou and stirred up the storm, Huangfu Song found that his attack was not so smooth.

Huangfu Song was not good at commenting on the fact that Lu Bu and Fang Zhiwen went to Qingzhou to make a fortune. Because they also went to suppress the thieves. As for the Yellow Turban thieves in Qingzhou without suppressing the Yellow Turban thieves in Jizhou, Fang Zhiwen gave Huangfu Song a very good explanation, that is, he had a deep personal relationship with Kong Rong. After receiving Kong Rong's request for help, he had to do it. Moreover, the situation in Jizhou is now in a stalemate. It is also a good idea to open a breakthrough from Qingzhou.

Not only could Huangfu Song not only not blame Lu Bu and Fang Zhiwen, but on the contrary, because Fang Zhiwen submitted the letter to Huangfu Song before the official war began, Huangfu Song also thanked Fang Zhiwen and Lu Bu, because Huangfu Song was able to timely count the victory of the raid on Qingzhou in his credit book.

However, compared with the brilliant victory of Fang Zhiwen and Lu Bu, Huangfu Song's attack war seemed to have suffered setbacks. The Yellow Turban thieves did not fight to the death with Yan Liang who infiltrated the rear of Julu, but ran around Guangping to attack his own logistics supplies and Yi Ren troops, forcing Huangfu Song to transfer Yan Liang's troops back to protect his logistics. However, at this time, a large number of Yi Ren troops that had infiltrated the rear of Julu were hit by the Yellow Turban players. He suffered heavy losses.

Huangfu Song had to admit that the Yellow Turban thieves responded very cleverly, and just hit his weakness. Huangfu Song’s current problem is that the government army is a labor force for an expedition, and the logistics line is originally a weakness, and Julu has a large stockpile. The logistics cutoff for a period of time has little impact on Julu. Moreover, the official army actually dares not go too far. If the rear is cut off and the back is besieged, the elite cavalry will be passive. It seems that there are experts on the Yellow Turban thieves!

In desperation, Huangfu Song had to ask Dong Zhuo for help. Dong Zhuo, who was waiting in Nanhe, was naturally a person who was unwilling to be lonely. It was already a pity that Dong Zhuo could not go to Qingzhou to take advantage of Dong Zhuo. Now Huangfu Song took the initiative to ask him to attack from Nanhe and launch a raid against Julu. All the gains were returned to Dong Zhuo without having to hand over, which made Dong Zhuo excited.

In front of the Western Liang cavalry, the cavalry of the Yellow Turbans was not enough, so Dong Zhuo felt that this was a good thing without any risks. Li Ru also believed that Dong Zhuo should make some noise and should not always be silent. This is not good for Dong Zhuo's future development. If he could fight a few decent battles, Dong Zhuo's possibility of recovery in the future will be much greater.

From this point of view, Li Ru did not even object to Dong Zhuo's capture of one or two cities. However, Dong Zhuo is alone now and can no longer fight the war of attrition like before, so he did not agree with Li Ru's more radical suggestions. Instead, he was concerned about Huangfu Song's attack and led the team to raid the Yellow Turban Army's logistics line.

The addition of Dong Zhuo, a new force, immediately put the Yellow Turban Army in a state of being clumsy. What's more, Dong Zhuo was proficient in the fighting style of fighting on the grassland, and he didn't care about his logistics at all and was not worried about the combat power of the Yellow Turban Army, so he was very brave. He once broke through to the near Bairen County in Jersey on the mainland, which was more than 600 miles away from Nanhe. Unfortunately, the cavalry power of the Yellow Turban Army was really useless, otherwise he could directly destroy Dong Zhuo who was alone.

The Yellow Turban Army simply turned a blind eye to Dong Zhuo and focused on attacking Huangfu Song regardless of losses, which immediately made Huangfu Song a little difficult and had to let Dong Zhuo return to the rescue appropriately.

Dong Zhuo happily participated in the raid war, but the harvest was very limited. First of all, the Yellow Turban thieves used their geographical advantages to strengthen the walls and clear the fields. The Yellow Turban Army even avoided Dong Zhuo and did not fight with Dong Zhuo at all. The Yiren troops also escaped when they saw Dong Zhuo. This was not embarrassing. In addition, there was actually no place worth looting north of Julu, because the population was collected into the city. The towns occupied by the Yiren seemed a little barren. Dong Zhuo tried to attack one, but the loss was a bit disproportionate to the harvest.

Therefore, Dong Zhuo's enthusiasm for the attack battle suddenly decreased greatly. Huangfu Song's order allowed Dong Zhuo to take advantage of the situation to go downhill and return to Nanhe to cope with the situation and send some cavalry to take a walk near Julu, even if it was strong support for Huangfu Song.
