After thinking about it, Bai Ren decided to capture Runan City first.
In the history of the Three Kingdoms, Runan City was first captured by Sun Jian.
Then after Sun Jian died, Yuan Shu took over the place.
Later, Yuan Shu defied heaven and proclaimed himself emperor, offending the Han Dynasty.
In order to preserve his strength, he abandoned Runan City and stayed in Huainan.
At this time, Liu Pi, the leader of the Yellow Turban Army in Yuzhou, and Gong Du After capturing Runan City, Liu Bei finally escaped from Xuchang, passing through Hebei, and then returned to Yuzhou.
He was supported by Liu Pi and Gongdu as the master, and he made a comeback in Runan.
Later, when Cao Cao went north to fight Yuan Shao, After defeating Liu Bei in Runan, he forced Liu Bei to surrender to Liu Biao in the south.
Cao Cao appointed Man Chong as the governor of Runan.
Only then did Cao Cao truly occupy Runan City and truly capture the entire Yuzhou.
At this time, Runan in Yuzhou belonged to Yuan Shu, and the governor of Yuzhou was originally Jiangdong Tiger Sun Jian.
After Sun Jian died, Yuan Shu took over Sun Jian's army and territory.
In order to appease Sun Jian's original power, Yuan Shu appointed Sun Jian's nephew Sun Bi.
He served as the governor of Yuzhou, and appointed Sun Xiang, Sun Jian's nephew, as the governor of Runan.
The overlord of Jiangdong, the Fuchun Sun family, like the Cao Cao family, is also a family of military generals.
Everyone knows Cao Ren in the Cao Cao family, Cao Hong is a famous general in the world, and the Xiahou family are all fierce generals.
Similarly, the Sun family in Jiangdong Fuchun is not weak either.
Sun Jian, the first generation of the Sun family, was a commander-in-chief himself.
Sun Jian led the Jiangdong children all the way to become powerful in the world.
Even the Xiliang army, which was famous all over the world, killed Hua Xiong and defeated Lu Bu.
It can be said that Sun Jian's ability to command troops is not weaker than Cao Cao.
The second generation of the Sun family can be said to be an outstanding generation.
Sun Ce, the leader of the second generation of the Sun family, is also an expert in commanding troops to fight.
Three thousand elite soldiers pacified the entire Jiangdong.
His ability to command troops is not inferior to that of his father, and Sun Ce's military strength Outstanding, known as the Little Overlord of Jiangdong.
Sun Jian's nephew Sun Bi was also a man who was good at commanding troops and fighting.
For his contribution to the conquest of Jiangdong, Sun Bi could be considered among the top five.
However, after Sun Quan pacified Jiangdong, he continued to deal with Shan Yue.
However, after Sun Quan inherited his brother's position, Sun Bi seemed to have left.
The political center of Sun Wu, because Sun Bi may be too famous, or he may have been cheated by his younger brother Sun Fu.
As for Sun Jian's younger brother Sun Jing, he was originally a military talent and had always acted as a staff member.
Sun Jing's eldest son Sun Hao was also a military talent.
Later, after Sun Ce's death and Sun Quan's failure to seize power, he was placed under house arrest, but Sun Jing still There are two other sons, Sun Yu and Sun Jiao.
He is a talented person.
Sun Yu is a versatile civil and military man.
He has always followed Zhou Yu in east and west expeditions, but he died young at a young age.
As for Sun Jiao, he is a military wizard.
He once followed Lu Meng to attack Jingzhou, and even Lu Meng died.
Later, he was considered by Jiangdong as Lü Meng's successor after Lü Meng's death.
There was also a person named Sun He, but Sun He was not named Sun.
He was originally called Yu He.
He was a close associate of Sun Jian.
He later died protecting Sun Ce, so Sun Ce gave him the surname Sun.
He had a nephew named Sun Shao who was always guarding him.
In the north of Jiangdong, he made great achievements in battle.

And Sun He also has a son, named Sun Heng.
He once relied on a few thousand men to defend an isolated city and resist Liu Bei's menacing army of hundreds of thousands.
When Lu Xun burned the camp, Sun Heng took the lead and almost killed Liu Bei.
He is also a talented person.
Bai Ren looked at the map and looked at Runan City with a very calm expression.
At this time, Bai Ren had led his troops to thirty miles north of Runan City.
This time Bai Ren decided to defeat Runan City, the most difficult city in Yuzhou, first, and then pacify the other cities.
In the place where Bai Ren looked calm now, his heart was frightened and he did not dare to be careless.
If Bai Ren wins this war, he can capture Runan City, drive all Yuan Shu's forces out of Yuzhou, and help Boss Cao capture the entire Yuzhou seven years earlier.
Furthermore, he can rely on the strength of Runan City to keep Yuan Shu stuck in the city.
Outside Yuzhou, he will also gain a new status in Cao Cao's camp.
If he loses, I am afraid that Cao Cao's forces will not have many opportunities to attack Runan in the past few years, and he may also die in this war.
Even if he goes back alive, I am afraid that Boss Cao will not reuse him again, and he will never be reused in this life.
Wasted.
This is a big gamble, and Bai Ren has to make the gamble.
As the saying goes, you will become famous in one battle.
Without a record, how can you be famous?
"Has the Fengxiao agent returned?"
Bai Ren sat on the main seat with a huge cowhide map in front of him.
Cao Ang and Guo Jia stood on both sides of the map, and Bai Ren stood in the big tent.
Ren's current main generals in the army are Meng San, Zhou Cang, and Xu Sheng.
Bai Ren looked at Guo Jia with a gloomy face and asked in a low voice.
After listening to Bai Ren's words, Guo Jia pointed at Runan City on the map and said with a cold tone: "Since the spies came to report, the guard of Runan City at this time is Sun Xiang, the prefect of Runan under Yuan Shu.
He only has two men.
With thousands of elite soldiers, it may be difficult to capture them.”
Then Guo Jia moved his finger to Shouchun City near Runan City, and said with a cold face: "Shouchun City currently has 40,000 troops.
If we want to support Runan, even a quick march will probably take a day."
Then Guo Jia moved his hand to another place, which seemed to be the lower reaches of the Huai River, and then said with a serious face: "The man stationed here is Sun Bi under Yuan Shu.
This man has 2,000 Danyang soldiers left by Sun Jian.
Don't Xiao Shi, if he comes to rescue Runan, it will probably take him a long time."
"Then it looks like this, I'm afraid it will be difficult to conquer Runan City."
Bai Ren looked at the sky outside the big tent and it was getting dark.
It seemed that it was almost evening.
He listened to Guo Jia's words and said in a somewhat embarrassed tone.
After listening to Bai Ren's words, everyone nodded and their expressions were a little dark.
Everyone understood that their current army of 7,000 people, although it was 5,000 more than Runan City, 2,000 people could completely defend Runan by relying on the favorable geographical location.
What's more, the enemy has two reinforcements, which makes it even more difficult to capture Runan.
"Fengxiao, you are usually very resourceful, but do you have any way to defeat Runan?"
Bai Ren's scalp was numb at this time.
He looked at Guo Jia who was still looking at the cowhide map and asked Guo Jia expectantly.
Guo Jia touched the mustache under his chin and said with an embarrassed look: "Actually, I also thought of two ways, but there are still many flaws in the plan.
If I'm not careful, our army may be completely wiped out."
Bai Ren looked at Guo Jia.
He never expected that Guo Jia had thought of two more strategies.
However, looking at Guo Jia's look, Bai Ren hesitated and asked Guo Jia to tell him the strategies he thought of.

"My first plan is to flood Runan.
It is spring and summer now, and it is the rainy season in Huairu.
Since ancient times, there have been many floods in Huairu.
If I send people upstream to block the water in the Ru River, wait for some time to release the water. , we will be able to break through the city of Runan and defeat the enemy army.
It's a pity to capture Runan.
Although this strategy is good, if we break through Runan City, our army will not have time to repair Runan City even if we occupy Runan.
Yuan Shu will definitely make a comeback and our army will be in danger."
Guo Jia said with a somewhat embarrassed expression. .
Bai Ren also nodded after hearing this.
Although Guo Jia's strategy to defeat Runan was good, the worries were too great and it was obviously not suitable for attacking Runan.
So he looked at Guo Jia and said, "Feng Xiao, please continue with your next strategy." " After listening to Bai Ren's words, Guo Jia nodded, and then slowly said to the people in the tent: "The defenders of Runan City are not scary.
What is really scary are the reinforcements.
Nowadays, the way to ask for reinforcements is to send orders and beacon fire.
We We can surround Runan during the day, prevent the enemy from leaving the city, and try to break through Runan before dark.
Unfortunately, this strategy gives us too little time, and I am afraid it will be difficult to succeed."
After hearing Guo Jia's words, Bai Ren also sighed.
Looking at the current situation, capturing Runan City is more difficult than climbing to the sky.
He also regretted boasting about Haikou.
In history, Cao Cao captured Runan at the last moment. , it seems that Runan City is really a hard nut to crack.
"You go down and rest first.
Let the soldiers stay hidden and don't let the enemy find out.
As for what to do, let's talk about it tomorrow."
Bai Ren felt that he had no clue now, so he had no choice but to say to everyone.
Seeing that Bai Ren looked a little bad, everyone nodded and slowly exited the tent, leaving Bai Ren alone in the tent looking at the cowhide map in a daze
