Chapter 644: The inside should be combined with the outside

Liu Yi came to Sizhou in person, and under a series of elaborate designs and the concerted efforts of the army and the people, he finally defeated the Han Sui Zhang Lu coalition army in the territory, and Liu Yi's army broke more than 200,000 coalition troops in one fell swoop, including 80,000 beheaded, more than 100,000 soldiers surrendered, and even killed the leader of the coalition Han Sui Weng son-in-law and Zhang Lu's brother Zhang Wei! After this battle, it was difficult for Liangzhou and Hanzhong to form any threat to Sizhou, and Liu Yi had already taken the absolute initiative although it was difficult to enter for a while.

This battle has only been four months since he led the troops from Youzhou, and this victory is even more decisive, since then the western front can be as stable as Mount Tai, Liu Yi can go all out to deal with the Central Plains situation, but also do not open up Hanzhong Yizhou for a strategic detour, it can be said that the harvest is very rich! However, at the same time as he achieved victory, Cao Cao, who was regarded as a lifelong rival, did not let Liu Yi Zhuan Mei and the front, and the confrontation between the two places of Xincheng Yiyang and Liu Biao's army suddenly exerted force, so that the original roughly balance of power fell to the side of the Cao army, Jiangxia Jiangling two counties suddenly rebelled behind Liu Biao gave him a fatal knife, Yiyang decisive battle Cao Cao defeated the main force of the Jingzhou army in one fell swoop, Liu Biao finally escaped from Xiangyang under the escort of the generals, went to the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River, and relied on the navy to temporarily be safe. The five richest counties in Jiangbei, the nine counties of Jingxiang, all fell into the hands of Cao Jun, and the results were also brilliant!

The battle of Jingxiang is not so much that Cao Cao is better than that he is better than that he is divided, among which Jiangxia Huangzu and Jiangling Xie Kui have played a great help, the reason why Jingxiang Jiujun has been stable for nearly ten years under Liu Biao, which cannot deny Liu Jingsheng's ability to rule, but its stability is more of a compromise and balance between various clan forces, Liu Biao found the key point of balancing all parties through his own strength! This is Cao Cao and Xun Yu's analysis of the nine counties of Jingxiang before the war, the previous Sun Jian and Yuan Shu failed to bring a fatal blow here, so on the surface the land of Jingxiang is still one heart, but this time Cao Cao came to be very different, at this time the news of the battle of Yiyang has not yet reached Jizhou, if Guo Jia knows it, he will definitely know why his friend Xun Wenruo is still here when he knows that the overall situation has been decided, it should be a rainy day!

When Liu Biao entered Jingxiang, this place was the most chaotic place in the Han Dynasty, and there were many forces of the clan and thief families, the two largest of which were Wu Su Dai and Huarong Xiang Bei Yu, Liu Biao's selection of points can be described as extremely accurate, he relied on the support of the Cai family and the Kuai family to take down these two places with the momentum of thunder, and coordinated the forces everywhere in the two-pronged combination of deterrence and temptation to make them all under their own command, but many clans still have intertwined strength in the local area.

Liu Biao can be said to be an extremely outstanding politician, the use of all kinds of powerful means is handy, and he is better at building momentum and borrowing the tricks, and the tactics are also clever. But in the troubled times, his biggest shortcoming is force, Jingxiang's prosperity and Liu Yi's Youzhou and other places have an essential difference, the latter in the subordinate territory, most of the officials are descendants, the control is self-evident, and Jingxiang is a harmonious on the surface, but there is always no lack of open and secret battles inside, but the existence of Liu Biao and the development of Jingxiang will cover all this deeply, but under the action of huge external forces, internal disputes have become the decisive factor in his defeat, and Cao Cao was not idle at the same time as Liu Yi's layout, Sizhou Jingxiang two shots have achieved great results, from a strategic point of view alone, his plan is indeed better than Liu Yi, the big victory in the battle of Sizhou is Liu Yi's impromptu decision plus a little luck to have the current situation, it must not be attributed to Cao Cao's strategic mistakes, a generation of heroes is not easy to with?

At this time in Xiangyang City, Cao Cao and a cadre of ministers are celebrating the victory of Jingxiang, although because of the existence of the Jingzhou naval army, he is difficult to capture the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River for a while, but for him this is only a matter of time, and from the economic and demographic aspects of the five counties of Jiangbei are far better than it, this Jingxiang battle, Cao Mengde can be described as a total victory, the hall is staggered, the atmosphere is warm.

"Report! Sizhou emergency military intelligence. The singing and dancing of Jingxiang Song Ji was very heart-warming to see Cao Cao, and the generals were also amazed again and again, but suddenly there were soldiers rushing to send a message, which made Cao Cao immediately wave away those beautiful and graceful jade, the beauty has always been loved by him, and never concealed it, Liu Yi talked about this day and said that this is the true nature of the hero! But if you want to influence Cao Cao through a beautiful woman, it's a fool's dream, and this person's will is not ordinarily firm!

"Read!" After the singers retreated, Cao Cao said coldly, intuitively this is not good news.

"Lord Qi, Liu Yi and ten days ago with an ambush to defeat Han Sui Zhang Lu coalition army in the suburbs of Ju County, so far most of the coalition army has been wiped out, just the pawn was collected by it 100,000, now Liu Yi with the great victory of the general Zhang Liao to attack Hangu, presumably this place is also precarious."

At the most critical juncture of the Sizhou War, Liu Yi did not forget to pay attention to the progress of Cao Jun at any time, it was the same for Cao Cao, the Battle of Sizhou was always a lingering thorn in his heart, it seemed that Liu Biao in front of him was not enough to make him worry, his imaginary enemy was always Liu Yi, and now although most of the news was expected, it also swept away the hearty mood of Fang Cai, although he was able to win a big victory, Liu Langsheng's hands and feet were not slow at all, and he deserved to be regarded as a fierce rival in his life!

"Liu Yi's son is really extraordinary, and he can still be so turned over by him under the situation of Sizhou, the coalition army of more than 200,000 troops can't support April, and it really lives up to its reputation of being invincible in a hundred battles, Wen Ruo, how should our army deal with the current situation?" When he spoke, Cao Cao's face had already regained its composure, and there was even a hint of excitement about meeting a strong opponent.

"Lord, the outcome of the battle of Sizhou should be expected by the lord, but Liu Langsheng's decisive and swift use of troops is indeed unexpected, but it also gives our army an excellent opportunity to capture Jingxiang, and the lord's gain will never be under it! And with the analysis of the current situation, Liu Yi seems to have won a big victory, but it is also a very heavy loss, after all, this time is fighting in Sizhou, for Liu Yi must be the first time, the loss of the war here and more than 100,000 soldiers will be a heavy burden for him, to predict it, and then he may still have the power of the division but there is no move to raise the army in the short term, from this point of view, although Liu Langsheng is not a hero, but there are still some women's benevolence, as long as our army completes the rest as soon as possible, and strives to the land south of the Yangtze River, you can achieve the balance of power against it, if you talk about the loss of this battle, Our army is still far below Liu Yi! Seeing Cao Cao's dark color, Xun Yu said happily, these words are reasonable and well-founded, although they are far-fetched, but they are a great encouragement to the generals of Cao Jun, which greatly offset their shock caused by this news, Xun Wenruo is worthy of a good talent!

"Wen Ruo's words are extremely exhaustive, but the Jingzhou Navy is quite strong, but it is difficult to get down in eagerness, at this time, do our army want to help Jiangdong Sun Ce break Liu Bei and then join hands with him to win the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River, so as to join forces to resist Liu?" Cao Cao smiled when he heard this, of course he knew the intention of Xun Yu's words, if he and Liu Yi were to get along now, he would definitely kill or kill most of these more than 100,000 soldiers, but Liu Langsheng's approach was completely different from him, it seems that the burden of this Sizhou will be heavier, and this person will miss the opportunity! Of course, Cao Cao Xunyu has this idea is also a position, in which right and wrong are difficult to explain for a while, encouraging the morale of the army is the best policy at the moment, Cao Cao is already planning a strategy to resist Liu Yi in his heart at this time.

"The lord can't, before that Jia Wenhe led the army into Qingzhou, General Yu Ban and Ziyang Boning and other generations fought hard to ensure that most of this place is not lost, can Jia Xu's ability, but it is very likely that he did not do his best, he was in the battle of Guansizhou to determine the overall situation, is the law of stability, now the Sizhou war situation is calm, the lord has to prevent Qingzhou Yanzhou two key points, Qingzhou north is Yuan Shao's jurisdiction, and in the enemy's attack, General Yu does not need to fight with Jia Wenhe here, and the lord just said that sending troops to Jiang Dongyu thought it was also a good law, It's just that it's not the right time, and even if the lord sends troops, it will never be Sun Ce who will help! At this time, Cheng Yu on the side spoke, but his last words made all the generals a little puzzled, if he didn't help Sun Ce, could he still help Liu Xuande? You must know that he is Liu Yi's ally, and even Liu Yi's brother Gan Ning personally led the army to help, otherwise how could Zhang Yide cross the river so easily and take the initiative in this Yangzhou battle?

"Oh, what do you mean by Zhongde's words, all of you here are my confidants, but you can say it in detail!" Cao Cao raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, and asked with a light smile, it seemed that he was asking a question, but he seemed to have been prepared for Cheng Yu's words, and this question was more like letting Cheng Yu explain and let the generals know.

"Hehe, Liu Bei, Xiao Xiong, how can he be a generation under the people, this time he handed over half of Xuzhou to Liu Yi in exchange for his help, it is a wonderful means, it is absolutely very human, Xuzhou is the place of the four battles, if Sun Ce successfully takes Yangzhou Liu Xuande, it will be difficult to enter, I am afraid that he will eventually be trapped here, and this death will be exchanged for a chance to fight. Liu Xuande's heart can be described as deep, when it comes to this, Sun Bofu is still a little weaker, when Liu Langsheng's family is dominant today, the strength is still above our army, even if the lord wants to resist it, he has to ask for help, now there are only Sun and Liu left, Hanzhong Zhang Lu is not worth mentioning, and among the two, no matter the vision and means are Liu Bei, this person is determined to be in the world, and will never be willing to contribute to Liu Langsheng. Cheng Yu said slowly.

The generals only had a slight understanding on their faces, but the military advisor's words were still unknown, and then they looked at the lord but his eyes were slightly closed and he didn't say a word, and all the generals knew that this was the lord's deep thinking, so they didn't dare to say anything to disturb, and the lobby that was still lively was quiet for a while!
