Chapter 110: Cao's army marches, Zhuge leads the army

“... Thank you generals for your love, but... After all, Liu Xuande is the prime minister's heart disease, and we need to be cautious. ”

Looking at the generals who were coaxing left and right, Xiahou Dan's eyes trembled for a while, and he was so flattered that even if he was experienced in a hundred battles, he couldn't help but blush.

"General Xiahou is right! We do need to be cautious about this.

This time, Liu Bei must not be allowed to run away no matter what. ”

In view of Cao Cao's importance to Liu Bei, Yu Ban and Li Dian took the lead in responding to the Tao.

……

"Now Liu Bei occupies several counties, and several and a straight line runs through the north and south. If you go around behind the enemy, you have to start a war with Liu Biao, which is inconsistent with the prime minister's intentions. In my opinion, if you want to take Liu Bei, you need to break Wancheng first.

Wancheng City is strong and deep, Liu Bei commanded 20,000 elites, and now there are about 8,000 stationed in Wancheng, once Wancheng is captured, it is like cutting off Liu Bei's arm. After that, we waited for the soldiers to divide into two roads, and rode all the way to Xinye, cutting off Liu Bei's back road; On the other hand, the army poured down, took the two places of Jianyang and Yuyang, and surrounded Xinye. ”

"As long as our army marches fast enough, even if Liu Bei wants to escape, he is doomed... Unable to escape. ”

In the center of the camp, the map of the chief was slowly rolled out, and he saw Yu Ban standing in front of the generals pointing to several counties in Xinye, which had the air of pointing out the country.

"General Wen Ze's analysis is thorough, but... What if Liu Biao can't help but send troops? After all, Liu Bei is a relative of the Han family, whether it is out of the situation or out of righteousness, Liu Biao will send troops to support one or two sooner or later. ”

"Ahem... On this point, the generals can rest assured! Just a few days ago, Cai Mao, the head of the Cai family and the general of the military division of one of the four great families in Jingzhou, secretly went to Xuchang and expressed his attitude on behalf of the entire Jingxiang clan.

Judging from Liu Jingsheng's control over Jingxiang, even if Liu Jingsheng wants to send troops to support Liu Bei, when the Jingzhou army arrives in Xinye, Xinye... It has long been in ruins. ”

With a light cough, Xiahoudun met the inquiring gaze of the generals, and gave everyone another reassurance.

Those who fight, attack the city as the bottom, and attack the heart as the top.

Not only is Ah Pu's momentum getting heavier now, but the art of war is also becoming more and more handy.

The 100,000-strong army has not yet set out, and Jingzhou has been in chaos, and this battle has not been fought... Half the way through.

"In that case, if we have no opinion, we will do what General Wen Ze wants."

Hearing Xiahou Xuan's words, the generals glanced at each other, became more and more in awe of Cao Cao, who was far away in Xudu, and nodded in agreement with Yu Ban's strategy.

"Since the generals have no objections, it is decided, and the army will be drawn in three days! Break Wancheng first, and then take Xinye. ”

"I will lead 8,000 iron cavalry first, Wen Ze will sit in the Chinese army, Mancheng Governor of grain and grass, and the rest of the generals will do their own duties, if there is a violation of the order... Military disposition !! ”

At this moment, Xiahoudun's hidden character was finally revealed, and without waiting for the generals to react, he took the position of striker, and kicked all the miscellaneous things that belonged to the army to Yu Ban and Li Dian.

……

Nanyang.

With the passage of time, the situation in Nanyang counties has become more and more chaotic, dragging families and mouths, killing people and goods, hiding mountains and forests... All kinds of chaos are coming.

From the dignitaries and nobles to the rural mountain people, they have all smelled... The breath of the coming great war.

On June 23, the thirteenth year of Jian'an, Cao's army of 100,000 troops went out of Runan, in order to avoid further stimulating Liu Biao's nerves, the army first Yexian, and then Wancheng.

On this day, Nanyang shook, and Jingxiang shook.

......

Wancheng.

The most "first" in the world, Nanyang County is located, and it is naturally very strong.

It was also Wancheng in his hand that Zhang Xiu, the spear king of the northern land, was able to break Cao Cao's wrist a few times with his Xiliang iron horsemen.

Although Liu Bei Cao Cao's heart disease is, and Cao Cao... How could it not be Liu Bei's heart disease.

Facing this increasingly powerful rival, Liu Bei dreamed many times that Cao Cao violently killed the Han Dynasty... I don't know how many times I woke up in a dream, and my head was held by Cao Cao in the palm of my hand.

On this day, in order to appease the people under his rule, Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, Zhao Yun and others came out of Xinye and went all the way to the north... Until Wancheng.

It was close to evening before he settled down, and with a little interest, he led Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun to the city tower, looking high and looking into the distance, looking down on the lights of thousands of homes.

But the good times did not last long, and the hooves of horses outside the city were heard, and several scouts rushed into the city one after another, and the noise could not hide the fear.

"Newspaper... Newspaper..."

"Lord, it's not good! In the early morning of today, Xiahoudun, Yu Ban and others led 100,000 troops out of the Runan camp, and now Xiahoudun is in charge of the Chinese army of the governor of Ban, and he personally led 8,000 iron cavalry to Yexian, and it is expected to arrive in Wancheng tomorrow evening. ”

Above the city tower, Liu Bei and the others couldn't help but shrink their pupils when they heard the scout's words, and their expressions suddenly became gloomy.

Although it is said that it will come sooner or later, this Xiahoudun will come too quickly!

100,000 troops!

In terms of military strength alone, there are five times as many people under his command, and more than ten times as many as Wancheng.

I think that when he was in charge of Xuzhou, the soldiers and horses in a state were only more than 100,000 at best.

"Cao Cao... It's really a heart that doesn't die! ”

Liu Bei naturally didn't know about Cai Mao's trip to Xuchang, but he just thought... In Cao Cao's heart and the hearts of Cao's generals, his Liu Bei's life and death seem to be heavier than Jing Xiang.

In order to take his Liu Bei's life, Xiahoudun, a horseman, would resist not taking the eastern counties with empty troops, but instead detoured to Ye County and rushed directly to his Wancheng.

"Don't worry, eldest brother, the third brother is willing to lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to meet the enemy, first kill Xiahoudun, the horseman, and kill the sharp spirit of Cao Jun."

Beside Liu Bei, Zhang Fei's voice was like thunder, and a pair of ringed eyes crossed the Dao Dao.

As the son-in-law of the Xiahou family, Zhang Fei naturally knows that Xiahoudun has a few catties and taels, although this horseman is a little worse than him, but he is definitely a rare fierce general and fierce general in the world, and it is okay to defeat Xiahoudun, but... If you want to kill Xiahoudun, there is no right time, place and help... It's hard to climb.

But... At this time, you can't retreat or shrink, otherwise the morale that you have managed to gather will be a thousand miles away.

"Big brother, second brother is also willing to fight!"

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei took the lead, and the heavy atmosphere of the city tower seemed to ease a lot, and the soldiers guarding the city on the left and right sides gradually calmed down.

How is Xiahoudun?

These Jingxiang-born soldiers are not clear, but what about Zhang Fei? They have indeed seen it with their own eyes, they can open mountains, punch can break stones, and they are definitely rare peerless generals in this world.

"The hearts of the two of you are clear to the brothers! It's just that Cao's army is powerful, and he must not be righteous. ”

Facing the eyes of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Liu Bei was moved.

In the past ten years of ups and downs, life and death, these two brothers are the only ones who dare to stand in front of him.

"Kong Ming, there is a good way to retreat from Cao's army."

Taking a long breath, Liu Bei forced himself to calm down, and then turned his head to Zhuge Liang for advice.

"If the lord just wants to repel the Cao army, this matter is easy!"

There are quite a few people on the castle tower, and there are not a few who have experienced strong winds and waves, but... If it is said that it is the most calm, it should be Zhuge Kongming.

Tarzan is destroyed but not collapsed, this kind of person is either a fool or... He is the real genius in this world.

The feather fan swayed lightly, and Zhuge Liang's laughter seemed to dispel the haze in Liu Bei's heart at this moment.

"How easy is this? Mr. Zhuge can say big things, but you also have to divide the situation, beware of flashing your mouth. ”

Regarding Zhuge Liang's "big words", Zhang Fei was obviously not convinced, snorted, and said sarcastically.

Take a feather fan, and really think of yourself as a reincarnation...

"Yide, shut up! Let's listen to Kong Ming's words. ”

Hearing Zhang Fei's words, Liu Bei's excited heart suddenly trembled, and he quickly glared at Zhang Fei.

"Kong Ming, you also know Yide's temperament, don't take it to heart."

"Don't worry! The three generals have a straightforward temperament, but they are iron-clad men, and it is too late to rejoice in Liang's heart, and he will definitely not have any other ideas. ”

Regarding the cold knives thrown by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei from time to time, Zhuge Liang felt that he already had a certain immunity, chuckled, and immediately stopped thinking about it.

"If the lord wants to repel Cao's army, he only needs to lend two things."

"Oh! I don't know what it is, but please speak up. ”

Looking at Zhuge Liang's confident look, Liu Bei gradually gained confidence, as if... Xu Shu stood beside him that day and waved his hand to break Cao Ren's army.

"Liang Dou has the courage to borrow the lord's seal letter and sword."

Taking a few steps back, Zhuge Liang arched his hands... A deep bow.

How does Liu Bei treat himself?

Zhuge Liang felt that Liu Bei's trust in him should only be under Guan and Zhang, as the so-called confidant died, and Liu Bei... It is his master.

Just let him Zhuge Liang... Use this battle as the first step for Liu Bei to lay the foundation for the Zhongxing Han Dynasty.

"Zhuge Kongming, you are so bold!"

Hearing Zhuge Liang's words, Zhang Fei, who had just pressed the anger... It exploded suddenly, and if it weren't for Liu Bei on his side, he would have already stepped forward and threw Zhuge Liang down from the city tower.

How important are the two things of the seal letter and the saber, how can they be lightly given to others, Xinye, except for his eldest brother himself, even Guan Yu has never had such authority, let alone a person who has never experienced the battlefield... Only know the Confucian scholars who talk on paper.

In Zhang Fei's view, what Zhuge Liang wanted was not Yinxin Saber, but Liu Bei's life.

"Yide! Shut up!!! ”

is different from before, this time Liu Bei's voice is almost comparable to Zhang Fei's voice, you can imagine... At this moment, Liu Bei's heart has become chaotic.

"Whew... That is, if the military advisor wants it, then hand it over to the military advisor. ”

stepped forward to help Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei's eyes were slightly condensed, he slowly untied the sword, and solemnly handed it to Zhuge Liang's hand.

"Later... Uncle Zhi will hand over the seal letter to the military advisor, and the military advisor will hold my seal letter and sword, and he can command the three armies, if anyone does not respect the order... Even I, Liu Bei himself, can be dealt with according to the law. ”

"In this battle, I will ask the military advisor!!"

The robe flicked, and Liu Xuande, the world-famous general Zuo and the uncle of the Han Emperor, bowed deeply to his subordinates at this moment.
