After Cao Ren returned to Yuyang, Cao Mengde had been waiting with Sima Yi for a long time.

Cao Ren panted and said, "Prime Minister, military advisor...... You guys, why are you here?"

Cao Mengde glanced at Cao Ren and said expressionlessly: "Lost the battle?"

"Hmm...... But I caught the culprit Zhou Yu, and it was this kid who caused us to be surrounded. Cao Ren hurriedly dragged Zhou Yu off the horse, and Zhou Yu knelt on the ground, very embarrassed, he timidly looked up at Cao Mengde and Sima Yi: "Prime Minister, military advisor, I am innocent......

"I believe you are innocent, because you have been calculated, and they have known what you have done, but they are only planning to get rid of you by our hands. Sima Yi said.

As soon as these words came out, Cao Ren looked at Sima Yi in shock: "Strategist, is this really the case?"

"Naturally, you think, Zhou Yu is so greedy for life and afraid of death, how could he use himself as bait? He was betrayed, he was too young to ......," Sima Yi said.

Cao Ren was puzzled: "The military advisor is planning to ......"

"Now that the enemy has obtained your 100,000 soldiers and horses, he must have thought that we would temporarily return to Beihai and deal with Lu Bu, but we have to go the other way, as far as I know, this Li Bolong is very good at using troops, after the war, he let Han Shizhong continue to attack Zhang Lu, and then divide Jiangdong to the Sun clan, does he think that in this way he can appease the people and seek development? Hmph, he may not have underestimated me too much, now if we launch an army of 500,000 to attack Jingzhou, we will definitely be able to break the enemy in one fell swoop!" Sima Yi said.

Zhou Yu hurriedly said: "It's not a military advisor, such a strange tactic is simply amazing!"

"Don't pat yourself on the back, now that you have been abandoned by Jingzhou, they don't want you, I want you. Sima Yi said.

When Zhou Yu heard this, his face turned red: "This is not very good. ”

"What do you think, I mean, I need your help, you are very familiar with Jingzhou, you will definitely be able to come in handy, are you willing to take revenge?"

Zhou Yu clenched his fists: "Of course I want to, I want to dream of it, please command, the military advisor, I am willing to go to the soup and the fire, and I will not give up!"

"Okay!" Sima Yi laughed, turned to Cao Mengde and said, "Lord, we can start ......"

......

On Li Hugo's side, because he got 100,000 soldiers and horses, a celebration banquet was underway, but Pang Tong frowned, and Li Hugo said: "The military advisor doesn't know why he is so bored?"

"I think about it, something is wrong, lord, those 100,000 soldiers and horses are some old and weak soldiers, why would Cao Mengde send 100,000 old and weak soldiers to attack Jingzhou?" Pang Tong said, "Actually, these 100,000 soldiers and horses are still a burden for us, do you think, how much food will be consumed in a day by 100,000 soldiers and horses, and the combat ability on the battlefield is not enough, they are all 100,000 foot soldiers, all of them are already old, how can they still fight?" Pang Tong said.

was said by Pang Tong, Li Hugo was also puzzled, and said in his heart that this time the battle was won too smoothly, and Cao Mengde had so many soldiers and horses, why did he send a Cao Ren over?

Imagine that after Cao Mengde subdued the north, the north is a land of outstanding people, and there are quite a lot of talents, but now that Jingzhou is such a big place, how can he only send one Cao Ren?

Thinking of this, Li Hugo stopped his chopsticks, and at this time Sun Ce said, "Big brother, what's wrong with you?

"I don't know, I have a bad premonition in my heart, after today's dinner, you will quickly go to Jiangdong with your people, take Jianye as the capital, and only seek the way of development, and don't worry about anything else. Li Hugo said.

Originally, Sun Ce wanted to ask a rhetorical question, but seeing that Li Hugo's face was very serious, he didn't ask.

Diao Chan, who was beside Li Hugo, said: "Haven't you had a good rest recently?" I see that you have been busy with the military all the time, and you have never slept well, otherwise you would have rested earlier today, and I will have someone prepare a herbal soup bath for you to relieve your fatigue?"

"Nope. Li Hugo looked into the distance, "Immediately send out three scouts to patrol back and forth at the major checkpoints in Jingzhou to see if there is anything suspicious." ”

"It's okay, after all, it's an eventful time. Lu Qiling said, "I'm worried about my father's safety now, although my father occupies Beihai, but also Beihai is six hundred miles away from us, if any of us are in danger, although we are allies now, but I am afraid that the rescue will not be timely." ”

Li Hugo thought about it, he looked at Xu Shu, and he said: "Xu Shu, if you are Cao Mengde, you know that Lu Bu took Beihai, what was the first thing you did?

"No, I will take advantage of the widening distance between Lu Bu and the lord, and then attack the throat in one fell swoop, taking Xuzhou or Jingzhou, so that although they are allies, the two are separated from each other and cannot join forces to support. Xu Shu said.

When Li Hugo heard this, he stood up in shock: "It's not good, someone is coming! Quickly order the three armies and prepare for battle!"

Li Hugo exclaimed, which surprised the people around, but now no one cares about the celebration banquet, and they all perform their duties and return to their posts, and the original lively courtyard is suddenly left with a few servants and Li Hugo's family.

"Xianggong, I'll go with you. Lu Qiling also came over and said.

Li Hugo thought that Lu Qiling was strong in martial arts, and she would definitely be able to help, so she should give it, and Diao Chan asked people to quickly clean up the yard and not give Li Hugo any worries, but it is a pity that the good dishes on this table have just started, and the big dishes are still simmering and have not come up.

Sure enough, Cao Mengde made Cao Ren's army a trick and used it as a cannon fodder team, which lowered Li Hugo's vigilance, but the real army was divided into seven routes, each led by the seven generals of the Yang family, and the troops were divided into seven ways to attack Jingzhou.

At this time, the soldiers and horses of the seven routes attacked the city at the same time, and the sudden ambush made the defenders of Jingzhou stunned, plus Li Hugo's soldiers and horses were hoarded in Jiangxia, and Jingzhou only had the 100,000 old and weak remnants left.

"It's really far-sighted, treacherous and despicable!" Pang Tong said, "The strategy of dividing the troops, the conspiracy, this Sima Yi actually got along with such a strange plot, the lord ...... We're afraid we'll have to make a choice. ”

Li Hugo looked at the soldiers coming to the city, his face turned pale: "What choice?"

"Defend or abandon the city. Pang Tongyi said word by word.

When Li Hugo heard this, he clenched his fists: "Is there any other choice?"

"No, the enemy is divided into seven routes, each road has 100,000 people, this time Cao Mengde's 700,000 army is mighty, straight to Jingzhou, our large army is in Jiangxia, Han Shizhong Han General went to Hanzhong, and the ally Lu Bu is in Beihai, and we can't come back for a while, we only have 100,000 old and weak soldiers, I'm afraid we can't hold out for three days!" Pang Tong analyzed.
