Chapter 77: Peak Loop

With a "snap", Cao Cao slammed the military newspaper on the desk, slapped the case, pointed to the lobby, and asked angrily; "Why is that?"

Former military advisor Zhong Xuanyu said: "It is reported that the governor of Xiahou wanted to run for a long time, and he went down to the sun with a drum to quell Lei Xu's rebellion, but he was detected by the enemy army early. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Our army was constantly harassed, sneak attacked, and ambushed by the Jingzhou army along the way, and there were occasional losses. After finally setting up the camp, due to the constant harassment of the Jingzhou army at night, the governor of Xiahou was overwhelmed, so he sent Cao Zhen and Cao Xiu to lead the tiger and leopard cavalry to drive away, but they were besieged by several times the enemy army, and they were outnumbered and defeated. Zhang Jaw and Xu Huang went to the rescue, but they were ambushed by Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun. ”

"Damn! It's Zhuge Liang's trick again. I warn the wonderful talents, for when there is cowardice, do not be brave. will be based on courage and wisdom; But knowing Ren Yong, a horse is an enemy. Miaocai didn't listen to me, so he failed. What to do! What is the master's plan to deal with the Jingzhou army? Cao Cao sighed.

While everyone was discussing countermeasures, a scout rushed into the lobby out of breath and presented a report from the army: "General Zhengnan and Xiangyang Taishou Cao Ren sent a villain to report, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun led a large army to besiege Xiangyang and sweep the surrounding areas, and the situation is very critical. Please send a large army to support the Prime Minister as soon as possible. ”

This news was like a pebble thrown into the lake that had just been a little calm, and it set off an uproar, and everyone looked at each other and did not know what to do.

"Is the news true?" Cao Cao shouted.

"Every sentence is true, this military newspaper is written by General Cao Ren himself, and he will not dare to deceive the prime minister if he dies?" The scout's face turned pale with fright, and he quickly fell to his knees.

"Probe again, go back quickly and let General Cao stick to the city, don't go out lightly, remember. Go ahead. Cao Cao angrily waved the scout back.

"Prime Minister, Yu thinks that this is just Zhuge Liang's treacherous plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao. Liu Bei's soldiers before the battle of Chibi were not more than 10,000, and after the war they occupied the five counties of Jingzhou, Lei Xu led the people to join them, and the strength increased greatly, and it was estimated that the number of troops did not exceed 50,000, and he brought 30,000 when he entered Sichuan, and divided his troops to guard the five counties except 15,000. There were less than 20,000 soldiers participating in the Battle of Dangyang, and they would not be able to pass Zhang Zhao. And our army has the courage of the generals of Cao Xiahou, the wisdom of Liu Xue, the general of the five sons, and the invincible combat power of the tiger and leopard cavalry, and our strength is several times higher than that of the Jingzhou army. The enemy army is not the opponent of our army, and it must be afraid that General Cao Ren will reinforce the governor of Xiahou, so he sent Guan, Zhang, and Zhao to attack Xiangfan and cut off our reinforcements. can make Cao Ren hold out, wait for Xiahou Yuan to return to the division victoriously, and then flank the Jingzhou army, and he will win a complete victory. ”

"Zhuge Liang, who is accustomed to deceit, did not dare to fight head-on, so he had to use conspiracy and trickery. This time, the governor of Xiahou suffered a loss, but he just fell for Zhuge Liang's trick. In the next step, the northern army should be dominated by me, stick to the camp at night, not be confused by the enemy, and look for an opportunity to fight a decisive battle with the enemy's main force during the day, and encircle and annihilate it in one fell swoop. "The military advisor sacrificed the wine Cheng Yu with confidence and talked eloquently.

Cheng Yu's analysis is reasonable, and most people say yes again and again.

"What Cheng Saijiu said is extremely true, the Jingzhou army is a disease of ringworm and scabies, and it is vulnerable. Miaocai just fell for Zhuge Villager's trick of bullying widows. Prime Minister, I would like to mention a division to help Brother Yuan break it and break the body of Zhuge Villager. General Fubo's "one-eyed dragon" Xiahou shouted out of class, he was burned by Zhuge Liang in the battle of Bowangpo, embarrassed, and lost face, and hated Zhuge Liang to the core, and often wanted to find an opportunity to take revenge.

Cao Cao smiled and said, "What Zhongde said is extremely true. Yuan let not be anxious, wait for the collegiate discussion before making a decision. ”

The gap between the Northern Army and the Jingzhou Army is clearly there, after all, the victory or defeat of the war depends on the strength of both sides.

Just when Cao Cao's mood improved slightly, the urgent documents of the counties bordering the Eastern Wu flew like snowflakes, and the content was that the Wu soldiers attacked the border areas of Zaoyang, Yiyang, Yichun, etc., and the Eastern Wu army burned, killed, and plundered the local area, and did all kinds of evil.

In the face of the influx of bad information, a group of civil and military officials looked at each other, exchanged heads and ears, and were shocked. Cao Cao was also annoyed by a headache attack, with a splitting headache and unspeakable suffering.

Seeing Cao Cao's painful appearance, Hua Xin, who was accustomed to flattery, was secretly happy when he felt that the opportunity to pat himself had come, and hurriedly went out of class and said: "Sun Quan of Eastern Wu is a mercenary camp, bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, and his status today is completely due to the foundation of his father and brother. Over the years, the prime minister has conquered the east and west, won a hundred battles, was invincible, dominated the world, swept away the heroes, and made immortal achievements. As the saying goes, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and now the power in the north is much stronger than Jingzhou and Eastern Wu. ”

Cao Pi, the general of the five senses and the deputy prime minister, saw the opportunity to act, and echoed in a heroic voice: "Sun Quan won the battle of Chibi by luck, but it was just because of his father's carelessness. The blue-eyed thief and Zhou Yu used tricks to kill tens of thousands of our northern army, and the hatred of the sea of blood and the hatred of the teeth will be avenged in this life. I am willing to go to the realm of Wu, supervise the generals to attack Wu, and wipe out Sun Quan's rats. ”

Cao Cao, who was originally sluggish, listened to the words of Hua Xin and Cao Pi, as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, nodded frequently, and quickly began to look forward to self-pride.

Chen Qun, the military adviser to the prime minister, thought for a while, and said loudly: "Prime minister, although Sun Quan is young, his insidious cunning is unmatched, and it is rare in the world to change the power and conspiracy, so you must guard against it. As Ziyu said, Sun Quan is indeed a mercenary villain, in order to protect himself, he can deign to surrender to form an alliance with Liu Bei, after our army returned to the north, he was afraid of retaliation, and did not hesitate to borrow Jingzhou and Liu Bei. However, after the crisis was lifted and the situation improved, in order to recapture Jingzhou, he immediately changed his face and broke off the alliance. lured Liu Bei to cross the river in the name of marriage, and wanted to kill him, and not long ago, he deceived his sister Sun Shangxiang and kidnapped Liu Bei's son to cross the river. It can be seen that Sun Quan is a ruthless, unrighteous and untrustworthy villain, and he cannot be trusted at any time. Now our army and the Jingzhou army are fighting for the cranes and mussels, and Sun Quan wants to take advantage of the fisherman's profits, so he will wait for the victory or defeat to rob the fire, and fall into the ground against the defeated side. Our side has been in confrontation with Wu and Liu for a long time, and the border boundary stretches for thousands of miles from Guangling in the east to Xiangfan in the west. Now Sun Quan is taking advantage of the fact that both sides are paying attention to the war in Jingzhou, and he must secretly gather troops, and the north will be close to Hefei, Shouchun, and Weixu, and the west will be stationed in Changsha, Lingling, and Guiyang. ”

Chen Qun paused and continued: "In order to prevent it from happening, it is necessary to take precautions, so that Zhang Liao can supervise Zang Ba and Han Hao to guard Hefei, and find an opportunity to attack the invading Wu army head-on. In order to prevent Sun Quangou from jumping over the wall in a hurry and raising the country's troops to attack on a large scale, it is necessary to increase the troops on the eastern front before the enemy can be attacked. ”

Cao Cao nodded frequently, raised his head and asked, "What is the situation of Wen Yuan's encirclement and suppression of Mei Cheng and Chen Lan?" ”

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived. Cao Cao said, good news.

As soon as Cao Cao's words fell, a scout presented a military newspaper and reported loudly: "Qianshan good news, Dangkou general Zhang Liao climbed Tianzhu Mountain alone, broke into the enemy camp alone, and surrendered more than 3,000 people Mei Cheng, Chen Lan, Liu Tong, and Lei Bo in one fell swoop. ”
