At the beginning of the twelfth year of Jian'an, Cao Cao led the army back to Xudu from Hebei, recuperated and recuperated, waited for the opportunity, attacked Jingzhou in one go, and then went down the east of the river.

Since Shi Yue returned to Xudu, he has been looking for opportunities, "How do you tell the boss?" The minister has been fighting for many years, and now he is in poor health, and he is afraid that it will be difficult to go to the battlefield...... "No, no, I feel very casual." I couldn't convince myself.

"Forget it, let's go find someone first, and then figure out how to fool around." Shi Yue got up and went to Cao's mansion.

When I arrived at the house, I learned that Cao Cao led an army to Youzhou, and it was said that he was looking at Guo Jia.

"Wouldn't it? When was the decision made? Why haven't you heard from them? Shi Yue gave up and had to go home.

Youzhou

"What is this?" Cao Cao looked at the file on the case.

Guo Jia said: "I have written all the subsequent deployments, handed them over to the corresponding soldiers, and then just followed the above, and dealt with any situation on it." ”

Cao Cao said: "When Fengxiao is well, Fengxiao can personally command, and the battlefield is changeable, and there will be inconsiderate." ”

"It's no better, I specially asked the lord to come here, naturally there is an important aftermath to explain. The lord's current situation is far better than Yuan Shao's back then, but don't forget what Yuan Shao's ending is. The officers and men in the army have begun to drift, so they think that we are invincible in the world. It is inevitable that the lord will have this kind of thought. Guo Jia said.

Cao Cao was indifferent.

Guo Jia continued: "If the lord captures Jiangdong, the world will naturally be worry-free, but Jiangdong's momentum now is much stronger than ours. ”

"I plan to destroy Jingzhou first this time, and then go down the river and take Jiangdong directly." Cao Cao replied.

"Don't worry, soon Jiangdong and Jingzhou will go to war, and the lord can send an army to help Jingzhou on the grounds that Sun Quan violated the imperial court and did not send his son here. can let Liu Bei go to diplomacy with Liu Biao, and it will definitely be successful. I have written the details, and you will see it then, my lord. At this time I was still alive, and the book came to tell me about the situation. Guo Jia said.

Cao Cao: "I'll prepare when I go back." ”

"My lord has one more matter, and listen to me." Guo Jia's eyes were sharp, and he said solemnly.

"Now in the Korean and Chinese armies, there are all factions, and the lord is here, they will not dare to mess around. But there will be troubles in the future. After Liu Bei obtained Jingzhou in his name, he could be killed. This person's ambition is far from here. ”

"Sima Yi is a great talent, and the lord will have no one to use in the future, so he can use this person, but this person has been hidden for a long time, and suddenly he shines, I am afraid of fraud, and he has a good relationship with Pan Feng, so he needs to be careful."

"I still can't figure out what Pan Feng is doing and thinking, this person may have different intentions, and if he stays for a long time, he will have endless troubles. After going back, he killed him directly, and now there is no shortage of him. ”

After Cao Cao heard this, he fell into deep thought. After a long time, he said: "I have remembered what Feng Xiao said. ”

Cao Cao soon left here with the plan arranged by Guo Jia and the dossier he wrote, and returned to Xudu.

Shi Yue finally waited for Cao Cao to come back, and was planning to look for him tomorrow, but learned that he happened to gather everyone tomorrow.

Cao Fu

Cao Cao's civil ministers and generals are all as far as Cao's mansion, standing on the left and right, and Cao Cao sits on the top.

Cao Cao said: "I went to Youzhou to visit Fengxiao, Fengxiao during this period of time for us to deploy a plan to level the world, I see, are carefully planned, ever-changing strategies. ”

Feng Xiao also said that Jiangdong will soon start a war with Jingzhou, and we will send an army to help fight against it. What do you think? ”

Everyone looked at each other, and everyone thought that they would attack Jingzhou directly, and now they are helping it, which is unexpected.

Xiahou said: "Liu Biao may not be able to believe us, so make way for me to enter." ”

Cao Hongyan: "That's true, now that we are powerful, the intention of pacifying the world is well known, how can Liu Biao not think that we are designed to attack!" ”

Cao Cao said: "At this point, Feng Xiao has already thought that we need Liu Bei to go, and his reputation is similar to Liu Biao, and the other party will definitely meet." ”

When the people heard this, it seemed that they could. Then everyone was speechless, and they did it.

Everyone returned home, and Cao Cao remembered what Guo Jia said, but he didn't plan to do so for the time being.

Liu Bei learned in the mansion that Cao Cao had summoned him to send troops to Jingzhou together, and Guan Zhang and the others asked, "What does Cao Cao mean?" ”

Liu Beiyan: "He needs me, the name of the Han clan, to persuade Liu Jingsheng, if he captures Jiangdong later, he will be in my name, and then destroy Jingzhou, and then Yizhou, maybe not Yizhou, kill me directly, it is really a good means." ”

Zhang Fei listened, "Then I won't help him." ”

Liu Bei smiled, "No! You must go, especially now, now is a good opportunity to meet Liu Jingsheng, this time Cao Cao sent troops to help, he must still not be able to capture Jiangdong, and he will come back then. ”

A few days later, Cao Cao led the three armies out and went to Jingzhou, where he divided the two armies into two armies to support him, fearing that something might happen.

Liu Bei and Cao Cao drove the horse in front, Cao Cao said: "This time, I still need the emperor's uncle to persuade Liu Jingsheng and inform me of the intention of coming, I am only here to ask for the rebel thief Sun Quan, and I am willing to send the army to help, Liu Jingsheng is a loyal minister of the Han family, and we are waiting for the Son of Heaven to only ask for the traitor!" ”

Liu Beiyan: "Prime Minister can rest assured, I will convey it." ”

Cao Cao also said: "This time, Cheng Yu will enter Jingzhou with Uncle Huang, and Uncle Huang can rest assured." ”

Liu Bei smiled, naturally understanding his intentions.

Shi Yue, who was riding forward behind him, looked reluctant, and before he could say anything, he was pulled over and set out to fight. You must make it clear when you go back this time, otherwise the next expedition will be longer.

Jingzhou

Liu Biao got the book of Cao Cao's messenger, and immediately summoned everyone to ask, "What does Cao Cao mean?" ”

Strategist Kuai Yue said: "Cao Cao's intention to come has been made clear, that is, he wants to fight with us against the traitor Sun Quan. ”

Wang Cang said: "That's exactly the case, Cao Cao personally led the troops here, that's what it means." ”

The other person was angry, "It's all nonsense, Cao Cao personally led the troops here, how could it be as simple as helping me to ask for Sun Quan, there must be some scheme, and now Cao Cao's ambition must be to take the world's Kyushu." ”

Cai Mao said: "You think too much, haven't you heard that Liu Bei is also here?" This person must have come here to inform the lord, and he did not plot, Liu Bei is known to the world. ”

Liu Biao listened to the words of the people, and almost all of them supported Cao Cao's entry into the city, "I'll talk about it later." ”

Cao Cao led the army to Jingzhou ten miles away, and then asked Liu Bei and Cheng Yu to go forward, Liu Bei went to the city, and shouted: "I am the imperial uncle of the Han family, Liu Bei Liu Xuande, today on the order of the Son of Heaven, I will come here with the prime minister to discuss Sun Quan, please open the door, I will go in and talk to him in detail!" ”

When Liu Biao learned that he was let in, Liu Bei went into the city with Cheng Yu, and said with Zhang Fei and others: "Brother, I'll go in with you." ”

Liu Beiyan: "You don't want to enter, I'm afraid that people will be afraid, Zilong, you go in with me." ”

……

Cao Cao's army led the army to wait ten miles away, and if there was news, he could enter and march again. Not long after, the scout came to report, "Jingzhou Liu Biao has opened the city, welcome the lord to enter!" ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he immediately led the army to go, Liu Biao and Liu Bei greeted each other at the city gate, "Jingzhou guards Liu Jingsheng too much, and welcomes the prime minister here." ”

Cao Cao immediately dismounted, "Brother Jingsheng is polite, Meng De is ashamed of it, you and others are resisted by Jingzhou to Jiangdong Sun, I am here to help." ”

"We'll talk about it later!" Liu Biao said.

Jiangdong, where Zhou Yu was stationed.

I saw a fierce general rushing into the camp, "Oh no! Big things are wrong! The Cao thief is really here! ”

Zhou Yu in the camp was quite displeased when he saw it, "You be quiet, Ziming, we all know it." ”

This person has a rough appearance, slightly slanted sword eyebrows, Danfeng eyes, and an awe-inspiring aura, which is Sima of Sun Quanjun's other departments, Lu Meng. "Cao Cao came so soon, I heard that he was still with the Jingzhou army."

Another soldier on the side is handsome, this person is Sun Jun Lingtong, "Liu Biao is actually willing to help, it's really strange, Cao Cao's actions, no one in the world knows, but now it's really unfavorable to us." ”

Zhou Yu smiled and reassured: "This time Cao Cao is just leading an army to help, and we are still the Jingzhou soldiers who are the main attackers, and Cao Cao will definitely not really help, and he will withdraw soon, and then he will swallow Jingzhou." There is no need to be afraid of this battle. This battle is just a plot by someone. ”
