That's the way it is, so the Yanzhou army people won't and don't want to be the third person, because they can be fishermen, they can be yellow birds, but they will never be the third person, that's really a stupid ×. Indeed, you said that when the two of them are fighting desperately, you want to participate, if this is not a stupid ×, then what is a stupid ×.

How to say, in their eyes, this is the best opportunity to be a fisherman and a yellow finch, and as long as you find the right entry point and find the opportunity to enter, then it is actually okay. But if you really go too early, you can only say that you are stupid ×, and there is really nothing else to say.

And it's not that everyone doesn't understand what their lord thinks, what they and others understand, can their lord still understand? Is this possible? However, his lord still came to ask himself and others, or the old rule, that is, let himself wait for someone to advise, saying where to go next, and then his lord made a decision, even if it was decided.

Everyone may not know what their lord does, but indeed, they are all used to it, they are used to it, they are immune to these things, it is really nothing, what their lord wants, everyone knows in their hearts, then follow him, or what else. And now there are only two options, and there are no other ones that are not-

After listening to his lord's words, Xun Yu was the first to speak. "My lord, there are only two ways in front of our army now. Either they will go to the southeast and take Jiangxia directly, but now what is the situation in Jiangxia, the lord and everyone already know, so entering the army at this time will do more harm than good to our army! ”

After listening to what Xun You said, Cao Cao nodded. "So what does it mean to be a Gongda?"

When Xun You heard this, he said, "My lord." If you can't go to the southeast to take Jiangxia, then it's the second way. That is, go south, bypass Gangneung, and go straight to Wuling! ”

Cao Cao and the others heard this. They all nodded incessantly. Obviously, they all think so. Because the timing is not right now, it is impossible for them to enter Jiangxia, so in addition to Jiangxia, the only way to go south is to go south to Wuling, as long as they bypass Jiangling. You can't go back to Hanzhong again, that place is no longer suitable for you for the time being, or you will easily fall into it.

Cao Cao nodded when he heard this. "Gongda's words are very close to my heart. I wonder what you think? ”——

As soon as everyone heard this, many people secretly slandered in their hearts, and said in their hearts, "Lord, you almost said it directly, saying that I decided to go to Wuling, and you all quickly said yes."

Even if everyone thinks the same, they still can't help but complain a couple of sentences in their hearts, but they all know more about what kind of character their lord is, so after complaining for two sentences, they don't think about it anymore.

Le Jin said, "My lord, my subordinates agree with Mr. Gongda's words, and now our army should bypass Jiangling and take Wuling directly!" ”

Everyone couldn't help nodding when they heard this, and Cao Cao smiled, "Hahaha, good!" Do you all think so? ”

"We all agree!"

Everyone said in unison, at this time, everyone was not slow to react, the lord asked you to make a statement, you can't be sluggish, or it's easy to let your lord misunderstand, so it's better to hurry up.

Cao Cao expressed satisfaction with everyone's attitude, and nodded at everyone-

But at this time, he saw that Cheng Yu frowned slightly, and Cao Cao asked curiously, "I don't know why Zhongde is troubled, you might as well say it and let you know about it!" ”

When Cheng Yu heard this, he hurriedly arched his hand and said, "My lord, although that Wuling is not as chaotic as Jiangxia is now, it is definitely a place that can be easily captured!" ”

When Cao Cao heard this, let alone say it, he really didn't know much about what the situation in Wuling was at this time. Originally, he was also going to ask Cheng Yu to introduce him, but didn't this happen at this time.

So I heard him ask, "Zhongde, I don't know what is so special about this Wuling?" I would like to say a word to you! ”

"No! Returning to the lord, the current guard general of Wuling is Huo Jun and Huo Zhongmiao, the general under the former Jingzhou military tent, and his people are ......"

Then, Cheng Yu briefly introduced Huo Jun, Cao Cao and they didn't know anything, so don't say it, they really heard of Huo Jun and his people, but they didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, you don't know what you have seen with your own eyes, and you don't know what is true and what is false. There are at least two sentences that are very good, one is "there is no vanity under the fame", but there is another sentence, that is, "it is actually difficult to match the fame", so in either case, it is actually possible -

After listening to Cheng Yu, everyone could be regarded as having some understanding of Huo Jun and his person. As for what kind of person he is, everyone hasn't seen it with their own eyes anyway, so everything is actually really and needs to be confirmed. However, at least there is a little purpose, Cheng Yu still achieved it, that is, everyone, including Cao Cao, is indeed very interested in Huo Jun, at least he will not be careless about the enemy, this he can put down a little bit for the time being, after all, his purpose is actually mainly this.

After listening to Cheng Yu's words, Cao Cao just smiled and said, "I hope that Huo Jun Huo Zhongmiao does have real skills, not a person who has lost his reputation." However, listening to his previous battle against Liu Xuande, it is not difficult to see that the so-called 'without three Shensha, dare not reverse Xiqi', the simplest point, people who have no ability, Liu Xuande may be so reused, not to mention that he is still a general, you say. Yes and no? ”

Everyone ascended in unison and said, "The Lord is wise! ”

Thinking about it, this is indeed the case, and everyone still doesn't know in their hearts. That Liu Bei Liu Xuande, don't talk about other skills, just say that his people know people, then it is definitely first-class, so he can reuse a person, and he is also a general, it can be seen that Huo Jun is not ordinary-

After that, among the multitudes. There are also several generals who have come out, all of whom have said similar things to their lords, which is nothing more than that they are not afraid of Huo Jun who is guarding Linyuan City in Wuling. It's best if the person is really capable. In this way, they can better reflect their own strength, and everyone will have to meet with Huo Jun for a while to see who is more powerful and who is stronger.

Even Guan Yu spoke. It's pretty much the same as the previous generals said. When Cao Cao heard this, he smiled secretly in his heart, and said in his heart, okay, the heart can be used, so it can't break the Linyuan of Wuling.

Even if he Huo Jun and Huo Zhongmiao are capable, their generals are not general. What's more, how many people he has in Wuling. And how much more than they are. Besides, if you wait for Nanyang reinforcements to replace Xu Huang. Xu Huang led his troops to Xiangyang, and his own strength has increased compared to now, so Wuling is in front of him, which is even more nothing.

Think about it, no matter how strong Huo Jun is, but the strength of one person is limited after all, and he leads a large army to surround Linyuan, so he doesn't believe that he can't take the city? In fact, it's just a matter of how much time it takes-

Yes, even if Huo Jun does have real skills, Cao Cao will not despise him, but if he is really asked to look down on Huo Jun, Cao Cao will still not. After all, the only people who can really make Cao Cao particularly cautious are characters like Ma Chao, Liu Bei and Sun Ce. And in this, what gave Cao Cao the most headache was actually Ma Chao. It's really the same thing, although several people have Cao Cao as their opponents, but it's still different.

Ma Chao is the number one enemy, which Cao Cao has to admit, in comparison, Liu Bei and Sun Ce are almost there. After all, no matter what, judging from today's strength and strength, you must admit that Ma Chao is going to surpass Liu Bei and Sun Ce, even if they have formed a Sun-Liu coalition now, but it is just a union.

Ma Chao occupies Liangzhou, Yizhou, Sili, and Bingzhou, as well as most of Jizhou, but it is really not comparable to the land of Jiangdong, Jiaozhou, including Sun Ce and Sun Bofu of Jingzhou, and Liu Bei and Liu Xuande, who only have two counties and Jiangling and Nanyang Fancheng. Cao Cao can't understand this, so he won't want to dominate the world. Of course, he will not despise Sun Ce and Liu Bei, on the contrary, he attaches great importance to it, but for Ma Chao, he attaches more importance to it, can he do it if he doesn't pay attention to it-

And there is another key point, that is, Jingzhou is in chaos now, and it seems to be getting more and more chaotic, so the ownership of Jingzhou is indeed very important for the general trend of the world. At least for Cao Cao's Yanzhou army, of course, they hope that their side will seize the land of Jingzhou, but if it really can't be done, or they can only seize part of the land of Jingzhou, then at least they won't let Ma Chao's Liangzhou army take advantage of anything in Jingzhou, they all understand this.

Cao Cao said, "Since everyone agrees to this, then the next step for our army is to go south and march into Wuling, and we will meet Huo Jun Huo Zhongmiao for a while!" ”

"No!"

Everyone said in unison, the generals have actually been gearing up since they heard Cheng Yu finish speaking, and they really want to meet that Huo Jun Huo Zhongmiao for a while. And now that their lord has said that this matter has been decided, they are indeed very happy in their hearts. After all, the person who can make Mr. Zhongde say this will definitely not be bad if he thinks about it, as for what it is, then the so-called "hearing is false, seeing is believing", so of course they all want to meet Huo Jun for a while-

Cao Cao's side has already been determined and marched into Wuling, and at this time, Xun Yu said again. "My lord, according to the time, the last two days. The reinforcements from Nanyang will arrive in Hanzhong, so my lord, our army should wait for General Xu Huang to arrive, and then join forces and enter Wuling together! ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he smiled and nodded, "Gongda's words are exactly what I want to say." Wait for Gongming to come back with his troops, and then march into Wuling together! ”

"No!"

Indeed, it is not a matter of two or three days. Therefore there is nothing that the people cannot wait. Even if they really wanted to bypass Jiangling as soon as possible and then go to Wuling, but their lord had spoken, and they and the others could not comply. Again. Delay for a few days. It's really not a big deal, so everyone naturally doesn't have any meaning, and they all promise in unison.

"Okay, let Liu Xuande's side take a look at the strength of our army again, and see the gap between them and our army!" ——

To say that Cao Cao does have this confidence, and he has to admit that the Yanzhou army does have such strength, and wait until Nanyang Li Tong's reinforcements arrive in Fangling to replace Xu Huang. And after Xu Huang returned with his troops, the strength of Cao Cao's Yanzhou army was replenished. Then their strength is even stronger.

If it is to deal with Ma Chao's Liangzhou army, Cao Cao will not say this, but against Liu Bei's side, especially the men and horses guarding the imperial Wuling, it is not the Sun-Liu coalition army, so Cao Cao does dare to say this, after all, the gap between them and the Liangzhou army, there is no need to say more.

I have to say that Cao Cao and they really thought very well, at least according to what they had discussed before, they had already sent a letter to Li Tong in Nanyang, asking him to send troops to take over Fangling. But to be honest, what they think is really good, but what is the situation in Fangling now, they still don't know.

The battle in Fangling was fierce, Zhang both sent Wang and his three to lead 50,000 troops to besiege the city and implement the plan of consuming grain, but the reinforcements of Nanyang, who also replaced Xu Huang, were still on the road and did not arrive, this is the situation in Fangling today. However, Cao Cao and they still don't know what to do, the Yanzhou army scouts are really powerful, but the Liangzhou army surrounds Fangling on all sides, and it is within a radius of twenty miles, and it is closely monitored, so the intelligence has really not reached Xiangyang until now-

Originally, Cao Cao's previous idea in Fangling was very good, and he wrote a letter by himself, sent it to Jianyang, and handed it over to Li Tong, the chief general who was responsible for guarding Nanyang Jianyang, Wuyin and other places. After reading his father-in-law's handwritten letter, Li Tong sent 10,000 troops to Fangling to replace Xu Huang.

Li Tong, as the main general responsible for guarding Nanyang Jianyang, Wuyin and other places, can send more troops, but in order to defend Ma Chao's men and horses in Nanyang, as well as Zhuge Liang, he can only draw 10,000 horses. Even if he knew that his lord of course hoped that he would lead as many troops as possible, but now he really couldn't draw more horses on his side.

Others don't know, Li Tong, who has been in Nanyang for so many years, still doesn't know the way, Ma Chao specially sent his subordinate general Pang De, as well as the strategist Li Hui, to guard Wancheng and Yuxian County. To tell the truth, for Pang De Pang Lingming, although his reputation is not obvious, but Li Tong also understands that since Ma Chao can let his people guard Nanyang as the main general, then his ability is by no means general, although his reputation is not obvious, but it is Ma Mengqi's secret weapon or something-

Li Tong can become the chief general of the Yanzhou Army responsible for guarding Nanyang, of course he is not an ordinary person. Not only is his person loyal, but his people are valued by Cao Cao, but also his ability will definitely not be bad, so for Cao Cao and the Yanzhou army, such an important place was handed over to Li Tong.

Li Tong has never heard of Pang De's name, but he doesn't dare to underestimate him, on the contrary, he has heard a little bit of Li Hui's name, and knows that he is both civil and military, and he is definitely a talent, so it can be said that he may not be as good as others. And Li Tong understands that since such a person is a person, even the talents who are famous in Yizhou are just Ma Chaoming's deputy, assisting Pang De Pang to guard Nanyang, so it can be seen that Pang De's ability is good, that is, he must surpass Li Hui and Li Deang, or can he become the main speaker, and Li Hui is just a deputy.

And all along, on the surface, except for the war between his lord and Liu Bei in Nanyang, his side and Ma Chao's Liangzhou army are at peace, but Li Tong is clear, in fact, both sides are waiting for an opportunity, waiting for a good time-

As for this opportunity, this opportunity, what it is, no one knows the specifics, after all, this is everything, everything can become an opportunity, and an opportunity may be encountered at any time. As for saying that the two sides are all right, to be honest, whether it is Li Tong himself or Pang De, in fact, everyone knows the way, and who doesn't know the way, this is just a superficial calm.
