Chapter 857 Cao Cao led his troops into Hanzhong

When everyone looked at it, they thought in their hearts, ah, it turned out to be Fang Ling.

Fang Ling? What, Fang Ling? After everyone reacted, they were all surprised, yes, but they had to be surprised, they had to be surprised by Xun You's thoughts. Even Cao Cao, Cheng Yu, and Guan Yu are like this, without exceptions. And the only one who can really deal with this indifferently is the person concerned at this time, Xun Yu himself.

If you want to say that everyone is surprised by Lu, it is because they and others are here with a large army to do something, it is to seize the land of Jingzhou. But what kind of place is this Fangling, it is not the place of Jingzhou, to be precise, it is the place of Yizhou, Fangling belongs to Hanzhong County, and it is Ma Mengqi's territory. But now Xun You actually wants to let his own side attack Fangling, if Ma Mengqi gives Zhilu Dao, will he abandon the current land of Jingzhou, and then pull the army to fight with him?

But to be honest, everyone is not afraid of Ma Chao, the main thing is that basically everyone wants to have less trouble, so ......

Cao Cao knew that Xun You must still have something to say, so after being surprised, he asked, "Gongda must still have something to say, if you have something to say, it doesn't hurt to say it!" ”

"No!" ——

To say that Xun Yu had something to say at this time, of course he had something to say, because everyone only saw one aspect, but they didn't think about it carefully, if they really occupied Fangling. That's a lot of good for you.

So Xun You said directly to everyone, "Lord." Ladies and gentlemen, please think about it, what kind of place is this house? ”

After everyone heard this, they just laughed, didn't they and others know about it? It's just that they don't know what the Tao is, what is the purpose of Xun Yu's question.

Just listen to Lejin said. "Fangling is the land of Hanzhong County in Yizhou!"

Guan Yu also said, "It's Ma Mengqi's land!" ”

……

After hearing this, Xun You couldn't help but nod. "Yes! The generals are right, and it is true! Therefore, it can be seen that the significance of Fangling to our army can be said to be insignificant!! ”

Cao Cao listened. Came interest. "Gongda, I don't know what to say?"

Cao Cao, as the lord, the most important thing is that he thinks more than everyone else, after all, Cao Cao's mind is not comparable to ordinary people, so although he also thought of some, he still asked Xun You directly-

Xun You listened to his lord's question at this time. It seemed that he had expected this a long time ago, so he smiled. "Lord, everyone, listen to me carefully!"

Cao Cao nodded, "I want to hear about it!" ”

So I heard Xun You say, "The lord also knows that Fangling is the boundary of Hanzhong, the territory of Ma Mengqi, and this place is not far from Xiangyang, just west of Xiangyang, and the distance is closer than Jiangling!" ”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but nod their heads, and what Mr. Gongda said was indeed true.

So some people said, "Yes, Mr. Gongda's words are not wrong at all, so what does Mr. Gong mean?" ”

Xun Yu continued, "According to the meaning of the following, our army has three points, and the reason why we must occupy Fangling, I naturally want to talk to the lord and everyone!" ”

Cao Cao nodded and said, "Okay, Gongda, please speak!" ”

"No!" ——

At this time, I heard Xun You finally talk about the most critical place, "Lord, everyone, this first, naturally is the geographical location of Fangling, you have to admit that it is close to Xiangyang, it can be said that it is so close to Xiangyang, but there is no other place as Fangling is more important to our army, I don't know what you think?" ”

When everyone heard it and thought about it carefully, it was really like this. Because of the distance between Xiangyang and Fangling, such a distance, other counties at this distance are all the territory of Jingzhou, but in comparison, it seems that there is really no one as important as Fangling to oneself.

So Xun You's meaning couldn't be clearer, at this time, when he went to attack Fangling, compared to other places, that was the first choice, wasn't it.

Cao Cao continued to ask, "Gongda, I don't know what the second and third are?" ”

Cao Cao himself had to admit that Xun You's first point and first sentence moved him. To tell the truth, the purpose of my own coming to Jingzhou is indeed to seize the land of Jingzhou. But although this is true, it does not mean that you will not attack other places, so going to Hanzhong does not mean that you can't do it -

And Xun You immediately said his second point, "This second is that our army sent troops to Hanzhong to seize Fangling, and I think that it is very likely to be achieved overnight and taken directly, although it is not 'effortless', but it will be easier to think about it." ”

"How can Gongda see it?"

This was still Cao Cao's question, so he heard Xun You reply, "My lord, my subordinates think that the people of Hanzhong must be very presumably against our army in Xiangyang, even if they take precautions. And they would not have expected that our army would directly abandon the land of Jingzhou at this time, but to attack Fangling, so 'surprise and unpreparedness', I think that our army's attack will definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort! ”

Cao Cao and the others listened to Xun You's second point, and they all agreed very much, after all, they were right. Even if Hanzhong Taishou is on guard against himself, can he predict his next move, so he can't think of it. Then for yourself, that's a big advantage, so ......

"Gongda, let's talk about the last one. I can't wait, haha! ”

"No! Subordinates obey the orders of the lord! ”——

At this time, looking at his lord's expression and attitude, Xun Yu of course knew that with his many years of understanding of his lord, this matter was basically completed, anyway, as long as there was no accident, there was basically absolutely no problem.

So he directly said the third point. It is also the last point, "This is the most reluctant, naturally it is the significance of Fangling to our army." There are some similarities with the first point. If our army can occupy Fangling at this time, then it can be said that it can be attacked, and retreat to defend, although it is not necessarily 'invincible'. But the benefits for our army. But it's very, it's self-evident! I don't know what you think, is that so? ”

After listening to Xun You, everyone couldn't help but look at the largest military map, and at a glance, they all understood that what Mr. Gongda said was really good.

The importance of this tomb to oneself, look at the map. I also know what it means to "attack and attack." retreat can be defended", in fact, at first glance, it is really like this-

first occupies Fangling, then it means that he has entered Hanzhong, and he is really threatening the whole county of Hanzhong.

In fact, it is now a threat to Hanzhong, but after all, it does not occupy a county and a city in Hanzhong, so if it occupies Fangling, then the significance to yourself is much greater, because Fangling is already the boundary of Hanzhong, and it is a county in Hanzhong.

As for saying that "you can attack if you advance, and you can defend when you retreat", this is also simple. Entering, it is said that it occupies Fangling, threatens Hanzhong, and then goes northwest, it is Shangyong, so Jin, it is directly possible to attack Shangyong. So retreat can be defended, this retreat, naturally is the land of Jingzhou, referring to Xiangyang, even if the most rearly is really defeated by the Liangzhou army and is defeated, you can also retreat to Xiangyang, so this is what Xun You said, "advance can be attacked, retreat can be defended".

So after looking at the map, everyone, including Cao Cao, had fine eyes in their eyes, and said in their hearts, such a great opportunity, I really can't miss it. After all, such an opportunity does not mean that it can be had, and now all parties are playing in Jingzhou, and they are all paying attention to the land of Jingzhou, and the same is true for Ma Chao, and he can't take too much into account when he thinks about it. But once he is free, then even if he is like this, it may not be as simple as he thinks-

Looking at everyone's expressions, Xun Yu was still satisfied, how about saying this, you still think what you said is feasible. I don't believe it, if I attack Fangling like this, can I still succeed?

And after a while, Cao Cao asked: "I don't know what you think, what Gongda said just now, what is it, does our army really want to be like this, send troops to Fangling?" ”

This time, there was no need for Cao Cao to name him, Cheng Yu came out directly and said, "My lord, my subordinates think that what Gongda said is feasible!" The benefits of occupying Fangling to our army are indeed self-evident, so my subordinates seconded it! ”

Cao Cao nodded with satisfaction, "I already know what Zhongde means, I don't know what else you think?" ”

Le Jin said, "My lord, my subordinates also agree with what the two gentlemen said, and my subordinates seconded it!" ”

Cao Cao continued to nod, "Okay, Wen Qian also agrees, I don't know what you think?" ”

Then there were several more, all of them agreed, and none of them objected, all of them agreed with their own troops to Hanzhong at this time and attack Fangling, just like Xun You said.

"Okay, since everyone thinks so, then after our army rests in Xiangyang for two days, we will immediately send troops to Hanzhong to capture Fangling!"

"No!" ——

How did this matter be decided, originally Cao Cao said to Xun You that he was in favor, after Xun You finished speaking, he had already decided to send troops to Fangling, and everyone was exactly what he thought, and there was no accident in the end, so the matter was settled.

After the Yanzhou army rested in Xiangyang for two days, Cao Cao left Xiangyang with the army, and as a result, several other people in Jingzhou, as well as people from all over the world, were indeed taken aback when they learned the whereabouts of Cao Cao's Yanzhou army.

Yes, everyone had to be surprised, because Cao Cao did not act according to common sense, he did not take the Yanzhou army south to attack Jiangling, nor did he take the men and horses to the southeast to enter Jiangxia, but directly led the army to the west, what is this to do, fools can see that Cao Cao is a soldier into Hanzhong, directly to attack Fangling, the world is in an uproar.

It can be said that more people were shocked by Cao Cao's thoughts. After all, the importance of Hanzhong, everyone knows the Tao, but that is Ma Chao's territory, and Cao Cao did this, what does this mean, does it mean that he is going to fight Ma Chao's Liangzhou army completely? People in the world don't know the way, but it's certainly not a good thing. Now several parties are fighting in Jingzhou, but Cao Cao actually raised troops to Hanzhong, so this has to make people think more-

In fact, you can't blame others for thinking too much about this, because Cao Cao moved his troops to Hanzhong like this, which made the situation in Jingzhou even more tense. Yes, he led his troops out of Jingzhou, why did the other parties get even more nervous after learning the news. I have to say that people's thoughts are complicated.

Cai Mao has been captured by Liu Bei, so needless to say, he and Liu Cong's side have actually withdrawn from the competition for Jingzhou, if you have to count it, then it should be said that Jingzhou's local family is represented by the power of the family, and it is no longer Cai Mao They are representatives.

So when these people knew the clear whereabouts of Cao Cao's Yanzhou army, they were all confused, because they didn't know what Cao Cao's intentions were. After all, he left Jingzhou with a large army, and in addition to occupying several counties in Nanyang and Xiangyang, there were no other teams, and what he Cao Mengde meant, so everyone couldn't figure it out, so a few of them were originally going to contact Cao Cao, but because they were going to let it go first.
