Guo Jia reminded Cao Cao to beware of Liu Bei borrowing troops from Liu Biao, and launching a surprise attack to attack Wancheng when he led his army back to help. 78 Free eBook Downloads .//

Now the situation is unfavorable, Chang'an and Hefei have been attacked by the enemy, in this case, any city is extremely critical, as the southern barrier of Xuchang, Wancheng, must not be lost.

It is conceivable that if Liu Bei can borrow soldiers and horses from Liu Biao to attack Wancheng, the army he carries will definitely not be weak, although Wancheng is guarded by Xu Huang, but it cannot ensure that it is safe and sound.

Just in case, it is also quite necessary to set aside some people to assist Xu Huang in guarding Wancheng.

Cao Cao left Gao Shun and Guo Jia in Wancheng to assist Xu Huang, and at the same time sent 20,000 troops to Xu Huang, ordering him to hold the barrier of Wancheng.

At the same time, Cao Cao ordered Xiahou Yuan to lead 50,000 tigers and leopards and elite soldiers, and transferred Xu Rong, a former Liangzhou cadre, to Xiahou Yuan as a deputy general, with Jia Xu as the army, and rushed to the aid of Chang'an.

Transferred Zhang Liao and Lejin to lead 30,000 elite soldiers to aid Hefei.

Cao Cao, on the other hand, returned to Xuchang and commanded the battle situation in various places, and if he found that the battle situation was unfavorable in a certain place, he could also be dispatched in time.

Originally, Lu Xun was a soldier in the camp, and it stands to reason that he should be under Gao Shun's command to help him protect Wancheng. However, Sun Jian, who attacked Hefei, had a hatred of extermination, and Lu Xun was quite willing to fight with Sun Jian. Therefore, after obtaining Gao Shun's consent, Lu Xun asked Cao Cao to transfer him to Hefei to assist Zhang Liao and Li Dian in defending the city against Sun Jian.

Faced with Lu Xun's request, Cao Cao agreed after a little thought. Lu Xun's growth in recent years, Cao Cao knows very well, it can be said that he has reached the point where he can be independent, and his character is calm and calm, although the hatred between him and Sun Jian is as deep as the sea, he will not be annihilated by hatred.

Originally, Xiahoudun also wanted to stay in Wancheng and continue to compete with Liu Bei, but unlike Lu Xun's request, Cao Cao did not agree to Xiahoudun. First, it is because Xiahoudun has a strong temperament and is easy to be swayed by hatred, so as to make mistakes; Second, he is in such a predicament, there must be an undercurrent in the court, and when he returns to Xuchang, he must have a general who can control the field, and when necessary, he can use it as his own sharp blade and kill him.

"Cao Cao really retreated, everything was as expected by the military advisor, it was really a clever calculation!" Standing on the city wall and watching Cao Cao's army retreat one after another, Liu Bei sighed from the bottom of his heart.

Uniting Sun Jian and Ma Teng, dividing them into two routes, and at the same time crusading against Cao Cao, making it difficult to take care of his head and tail, how can such a huge and exquisite layout not make people admire?

Although Sun Jian has been fighting with Liu Biao in recent years, the relationship can be described as extremely bad. However, Cao Cao had a grudge against Sun Jian for killing his son, and once Jingzhou fell, Cao Cao's next target would inevitably be aimed at Jiangdong, so it was not difficult to send an envoy to persuade Sun Jian to send troops.

The current Jiangdong is much stronger than the Jiangdong in the same period in history. In the history of another time and space, Sun Jian was killed by Huang Zu early, and Sun Ce was in exile for a long time before borrowing a force from Yuan Shu to occupy Jiangdong. However, a few years after Sun Ce pacified Jiangdong, he was accidentally injured by the assassins, and finally died of serious injuries, so that Jiangdong, who had only stabilized for a short time, suffered another great injury. After Sun Quan succeeded to the throne, it took a long time to develop Jiangdong to improve. However, Rao was like this, and before the Battle of Chibi, Jiangdong only barely had the strength to resist Cao Cao.

But in today's era, Sun Jian did not die unexpectedly and occupies Jiangdong to this day. For such a long time, Sun Jian worked hard to make the country prosperous, trained soldiers and horses, and seemed to be the posture of a hero. Although its strength is not as good as today's Cao Cao, compared to Yuan Shao in the past, I am afraid it is not far behind. Therefore, raising 100,000 elite soldiers to attack Hefei in the north is not a difficult task for Sun Jian.

It was easy to invite Sun Jian to send troops, but it was difficult for Sun Jian's troops and horses to pose a fundamental threat to Cao Cao, and it may not be enough for him to retreat from Xinye. Compared with Sun Jian, Xiliang Ma Teng's threat to Cao Cao is also not small, if Ma Teng and Sun Jian can raise troops at the same time, then Cao Cao has only one way to withdraw his troops, and the siege of Xinye can be solved.

Although Zhuge Liang is wise, he has never met Ma Teng, so it is impossible to understand his character very thoroughly.

However, although Zhuge Liang can't know much about Ma Teng, Liu Bei also knows Ma Teng quite well. According to Liu Bei, Ma Teng seems to be rough, but in fact he is also a scheming person, if there is not much interest involved, I am afraid that he will not easily make enemies with Cao Cao.

According to Liu Bei's description, Zhuge Liang roughly thought of a plan to lure Ma Teng to attack Cao. In order to ensure the success of the plan, Zhuge Liang sent Yi to Dong Cheng's mansion in Xuchang to state his interests to the other party, and finally succeeded in moving Dong Cheng.

Dong Cheng then met with the Son of Heaven and asked the Son of Heaven to issue an edict ordering Ma Teng to crusade against Cao Cao, and after the promised thing was completed, he would worship him as a general and seal the Duke of Liang, and even as long as he was ostensibly subordinate to the Han family and the land of Liangzhou, he could be left to his own country.

In the face of such conditions, it is impossible for Ma Teng not to be moved, the Son of Heaven personally awarded the duke, what a glory it is! Although Yuan Shao also served as Ye Gong, at that time he was self-proclaimed, belonging to the category of rebellious ministers and thieves, which was completely different from the nature of the Son of Heaven.

The land of Liangzhou is self-governing, which makes Ma Teng's heart even more excited. Although all parts of the country are now in a state of princely autonomy, and the imperial court is almost powerless to govern, it is definitely another level of satisfaction to be recognized by the Son of Heaven himself.

Under such favorable conditions, Ma Teng was unable to refuse, and finally pulled all the capable warriors of Liangzhou into the army, forming an army of 200,000 to attack Chang'an.

The Son of Heaven was very reluctant to make Ma Teng the Duke of Liang and allow him to be autonomous in Liangzhou. In the eyes of the Son of Heaven, the end of this can only be to shape Ma Teng into the next minister, and he is a more harmful minister than Cao Cao. It's just that Dong Cheng said to him that at the same time as Ma Teng raised his troops, Liu Bei and Sun Jian would also send troops to King Qin, and after Cao Cao was eliminated, with the intervention of these two forces, the Son of Heaven could completely put aside his promise to Ma Teng. Unless Ma Teng dares to openly rebel, under the pressure of Liu Bei and Sun Jian at the same time, Ma Teng will only complain a few words at most, and will never dare to do anything drastic. After getting Dong Cheng's explanation, the Son of Heaven promised to issue an edict.
