Chapter 543: The Battle of Destroying Cao (5)

"The last will understand."

Cao Ren, as Cao Cao's general, certainly understands this truth.

He commanded a large army to merge states, just to make trouble.

No matter how many enemies he encounters, he will not fight hard, as long as he causes trouble for Yuan Xi.

Sima Yi continued: "The soldiers and horses we left behind in Chang'an, Luoyang, Nanyang, and Jingzhou should be about 200,000, and we don't need to be elite, but we must definitely be loyal. Because in the late stage of the battle, the morale of the soldiers will be very low, and the soldiers who are absolutely loyal to the prime minister are needed to fight for the prime minister. ”

"They're stationed at checkpoints and arrive with equipment. Chen believed that without Yuan Xi's giant beast, it would not be able to attack. ”

"Finally, there are Guandu, Chenliu and Huainan. The main strategy for these three places was to rely on defensive positions and fire oil. Since our defensive position was built, Yuan Xi neither sent people to destroy it, nor did he send people to investigate. This shows that he did not pay attention to our defensive positions at all. I guess he's trying to get the behemoth to destroy the position and then storm it. This gives us a great opportunity. Just bury a large amount of fire oil in the position, and when his giant beast arrives, he will be annihilated in one fell swoop. ”

"Our troops in these three places are also around 200,000, this is the prime minister's last force, and their purpose is not to defeat Yuan Xi, but to inflict heavy losses, or rather... Procrastination. So when you are at war, you don't have to go head-to-head. Just use the terrain and wait for an opportunity to sneak attack... ”

Sima Yi quickly finished speaking: "Prime Minister, what do you think?" ”

Cao Cao said: "In your plan, it seems that there is no Liu Bei and Sun Quan. You're not going to count them in, are you? ”

"Prime Minister, do you think they will come?" Sima Yi asked.

"Why not? I think they're coming. At least Liu Bei will send troops. Don't forget, he is different from Sun Quan, he always thinks about Kuang Fu Han Room, if you want Kuang Fu Han Room, you can't watch Yuan Xi sit big. Once we are eliminated, Liu Bei will also lose the barrier, and with it, he will also be eliminated. Zhuge Liang is very good at calculation, can't he see this? ”

Jia Xu said: "Maybe the prime minister is right. But in a short period of time, Liu Bei could not send troops. Because Yizhou is thousands of miles away from the Central Plains, the mountains and rivers are dangerous and difficult to pass. And Yuan Xi will not sit idly by and watch Liu Bei send us reinforcements, I am now more and more worried that Yuan Xi will take the waterway and attack Nanyang first. There is also a line of the Wei River. In this way, it will be difficult for Liu Bei's army to get out of Sichuan. ”

"If you are worried, you should be prepared."

Cao Cao looked at Nanyang County on the map.

Sima Yi said: "Nanyang is the richest county in Jingzhou, and it is also the gateway to Jingzhou. It is true that heavy arming is required. As the minister said just now, in Jingzhou, Nanyang, and Guanzhong, 200,000 people were left to be armed. Of these, 50,000 can be placed in Nanyang County. Even if Yuan Xi wanted to capture there, it was impossible to transport a large number of troops from Hebei to Nanyang by water. We garrisoned with 50,000 troops, which was sufficient. ”

"Okay."

Cao Cao got up and said, "I agree with all your strategies. Send troops on the same day and fight with Yuan Xi! ”

"No..."

Jia Xu and Sima Yi looked at each other and bowed their hands to Cao Cao.

............

this day.

In Chengdu, the capital of Yizhou, Liu Bei made a speech to Emperor Liu Xie.

"Your Majesty, now the war in the Central Plains has broken out again. Yuan Xi personally led an army of 870,000 to defeat Cao Cao. This battle must be earth-shattering, if Yuan Xi wins, most of the world will be his.... ”

Liu Bei was very respectful to Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty.

He knelt in the hall to give a report, not daring to get up.

Liu Xie is also a Ming Jun, and stepped forward to help Liu Bei: "Aiqing, what if Cao Cao wins?" ”

"If Cao Cao wins, we still have a chance. So, I thought... For the great cause of the Han family, troops should be sent to help Cao Cao. Defeat Yuan Xi! Only in this way can we strike at the posterior. Only then will there be a chance to win. ”

"Everything is up to Aiqing."

Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty said: "I worship you as the general who protects the country, hold the sword of the Son of Heaven, take the seat of the Son of Heaven, lead the king of the world, and crusade against Yuan Xi." In addition, I also gave Cao Cao an official position, promoted him to the general of the expedition to the north, and led the headquarters to assist Aiqing. ”

When he said this, Liu Xie handed the Son of Heaven Sword to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei took it in his hand and said, "The minister obeys the order." ”

.....

Compared to Xuchang, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty liked it here.

Liu Bei treated him very well.

The military power of Yizhou is also in his hands.

No one spies on him, and no one tells him what to do.

Everything is free.

This gave him a taste of being the Son of Heaven.

However, he also knew that it was useless to have military power in his hands, so he still had to hand it over to Liu Bei and let Liu Bei fight for him. In this way, it is possible to support the Han family and return to the Central Plains.

Liu Bei took the sword of the Son of Heaven and went back to his general's mansion.

The civil and military officers under his command all rushed to listen to the order.

Among them is Zhuge Liang.

Liu Bei said: "Your Majesty appointed me as the general of the protector of the country, and ordered me to lead the royal division to crusade against Yuan Xi, Kong Ming, do you have a strategy for fighting?" ”

Zhuge Liang was always frowning, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Sir, my lord asks you something." Ma Jian reminded from the side.

"Oh..." Zhuge Liang came back to his senses and arched his hand: "The minister is thinking that Yuan Xi's army can go straight to Jingzhou, Fancheng, Jingnan and other regions, and even to Fucheng in Yizhou." His ships were extremely fast and did not take time. Will he suddenly attack Nanyang? So where do we send our troops from? ”

Liu Bei said: "Cross Qishan and march from Chang'an." ”

"Don't forget, my lord, Chang'an is not far from Bingzhou. The minister believed that Yuan Xi must have sent a large number of troops to garrison the Wei River. One is to cut off the connection between Xiliang and the Central Plains, and the other is to prevent us from supporting Cao Cao. Zhuge Liang sighed: "If he really occupies these two places, it will be difficult for us to send troops to the Central Plains." ”

"What is your plan, sir?"

Zhuge Liang said: "Hurry up and inform Cao Cao and let him hold Nanyang or Guanzhong to ensure the smooth passage of our army." ”

"Okay, I'll send someone to tell Cao Cao later, and by the way, convey the edict of the Son of Heaven." Liu Bei said: "Now we have to determine how many troops to send to the Central Plains." ”

"Fa Zheng."

"The minister is here."

Fa Zheng said: "Since the surrender of the barbarians, our strength has increased greatly, and we now have 540,000 infantry troops, 20,000 cavalry, and 15,000 chariots. There are countless types of equipment. In addition to the troops guarding the counties and garrisoning Yangpingguan and Fucheng, 300,000 troops can be mobilized to go to the battle, and the best route for marching is from Qishan to the Central Plains from Guanzhong. ”

Liu Bei stared at the map.

In fact, it is the nearest road to go from Fucheng to the Central Plains.

Cheng is also close to Fucheng, and there is no need to go through thousands of miles of Shu Road.

It just takes a lot of water to do it.

There is no navy in Yizhou, so it is difficult to pass.

This sounded a wake-up call for Liu Bei, he must form a naval army in the future, otherwise every time he goes out of Sichuan, he will be easily blocked by the enemy. No matter how many troops there are, they will not be able to exert their strength.
