Pang Tong said: "We have about 40,000 troops in Nanyang, about 60,000 in Wuling and Yidao, and Cao Jun has 100,000 heavy troops in Nanyang and Xiangyang, and more than 100,000 in the direction of Jiangling and Wuling. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info I am afraid that it will not be a top matter if there are fewer troops! Moreover, Cao Cao also had some troops in Yuzhang, Danyang, and Jiangxia, and there were at least 60,000 to 70,000 troops in Yingchuan and Xudu. ”

Jia Xu continued: "There is a person in the direction of Wancheng who needs to pay attention, this person is Cao Cao's general Zhang Hong, and this person's courage is no less than Zhang Liao. It is said that Chen Gong broke up with Cao Cao and hurried overnight, until dawn, walked to the edge of the Yellow River in Yanzhou, saw two cows were hostile to each other, as if there was a gladiatorial fight, suddenly climbed up from the river A young man, after going ashore, went straight to Erniu, gave them each a punch, knocked the two cows back, and then pulled a cow's horns and walked away, so that Chen Gong was surprised!

Later, Chen Gong rested at a local Haoqiang's house, talking about the strange things he saw today, the Qianghao smiled and said: "This child lost his parents due to the war, I saw him pitiful, accepted as a shepherd boy, no other ability, is to have a handful of strength, but also a foodie, at a young age, a person has to eat two or three adults' meals to be full, if you like to bring it, it is also his creation." ”

Chen Gong was overjoyed, so he took him with him to be a scholar, taught him martial arts, the art of war, and literacy, and relied on him to get out of several crises. When he was eighteen years old, Chen Gong took the word Wenyong for him, which means both civil and military, and he was quite proud.

At that time, Lu Bu fought General Zuo, Chen Gong stayed in the rear, Pei County often had water thieves raiding the people, Chen Gong ordered Zhang Hong to lead the troops to go to the conquest, this son was only eighteen years old, he dared to go deep into the thief's den, and captured and subdued the two leaders of the water thieves in one fell swoop. When Chen Gong was beheaded by Cao Cao, he also wanted to cut off this son, but General Zuo interceded to save him from death, and he was appointed as a lieutenant to help take care of Chen Gong's mother.

Later, Cao Cao appreciated his loyalty, wisdom and bravery, and married his daughter to him, and during the battle of Guandu, he was sent to attack Yuan Shao's rear, and this son bravely captured Yuan Shao's general Han Qi and was promoted to a partial general. When Cao's army attacked Nanyang, this son fought fiercely with Yun Chang for nearly 100 rounds and was undefeated. ”

Liu Feng couldn't help but ask, "General Xu!" You used to be in Lu Bu's army, this son is really better than Zhang Liao? ”

Everyone also looked at Xu Rong.

Xu Rong nodded with a solemn expression and said: "Is it more powerful than Zhang Liao, they have not compared, mainly because Chen Gong did not allow it, but the two water thieves ambushed by this son joined forces to repel the Tibetan tyrant when they attacked the city guarded by Chen Palace, and the courage of the Tibetan tyrant was not much worse than Zhang Liao." And it was by virtue of force and water kung fu that the two were ambushed, and he was willing to be a young general under him. ”

Xu Rong said again: "As far as I know, this Zhang Hong led only 30,000 troops, mainly stationed in Bowang, Jianyang belt, if we feint in Guangcheng Pass, Yingchuan Cao army may not dare to transfer troops to support Nanyang, we are several times more than Zhang Hong's troops to attack Bowang, Jianyang, and another surprise troops directly into the back of the Yang, Wuyin, Yexian, Luyang, forming a closed door. ”

Pang Tong interjected: "As long as we can form a momentum of closing the door, and then use troops to trap Zhang Hong and Xiahou Yuan and hold Fancheng, then Xiahou Yuan and Zhang Hong are extremely old with troops, and they will definitely guess our intentions and retreat to Jiangxia and Nanjun." ”

Jia Xu glanced at the generals and said faintly: "I just received news from Xu Du, Xu Du has moved, and it seems that he wants to move the capital!" ”

Seeing that the generals' faces were now happy, he said: "I thought that Cao Cao was not afraid of us, but was making strategic adjustments again, it seems that Jiangdong has been taken, but there is no news yet." If this is the case, after Cao Cao adjusts the imperial capital, he will let go of his hands and feet to fight us. Now Cao Cao has at least a million brave and strong troops, Jiangdong, he will focus all his energy on us, Qingzhou and Jizhou will be the main attack, and Jingzhou, Yanzhou, and Yuzhou will take the defensive first. ”

When the generals heard that there were at least nearly a million brave and strong, their faces changed.

Liu Shi glanced at it, saw that some of the generals were worried, and saw that Pang Tong's face seemed to be disdainful, so he nodded secretly, so he said: "In the face of Cao Thief being so powerful, do you have any good suggestions?" ”

The generals look at me and I look at you, only Ma Chao said: "The soldiers will block, the water will cover the earth, and I will treat millions of Cao thieves as ants." ”

Pang Tong said: "Jizhou has won more than half, Qingzhou is fighting, as long as we can hold the land of Qingdao and Hebei in time, and then take Nanyang, as the southern place to raise horses and soldiers, although Cao Cao is strong, we may not have the strength to compete with Cao Cao." ”

Jia Xu said coldly: "When we are talking here, Cao Cao may be returning to Qingzhou, and then Qingzhou will not be guaranteed, and Jizhou will be difficult to defend!" ”

Liu Shi's face changed, Huo Di stood up and said, "Okay!" Cao Cao moves, and we must also move. I decided: The Xinghan army is now divided into four parts, Zhao Yun is the governor of Qing, Ji, You, and Xu, Gan Ning, Liu Hu, and Xiang Xiong are the deputy governors, Fa Zheng and Pang Tong are the military divisions, and the military divisions are matched, with Zhaozhao, Yu Fang, Song Xiong, Peng Hu, Tian Yu, Xian Yufu, Zhao Fei, Yan Hu, Hong Jiang, Pang De, Yang Ren, Yang Ang, Zhang Wei, Guan Hai, Jiang Yu, Hu Che'er, Meng Da, Cheng Yin, and Gongsun Xu as generals.

Lu Su is the governor of Sili, Yanzhou and Yuzhou, Dian Wei and Gao Shun are the deputy governors, and Huang Zhong, Liu Yu, Gong Du, Yan Xing, Wu Yi, Deng Xian, Ju Yan, Tian Le, Ling Bao and Sima Ju are generals.

Liu Wei was the governor of Yongzhou, Liangzhou, and Bingzhou, Zhang Xiu and Wei Yan were the deputy governors, and Li Kan and Hou Xuan; Zhang Meng, Li Yan, and Yang Feng are generals.

Peng Tuo is the governor of Yizhou, Jingzhou, Jiaozhou, and Yangzhou, Ma Chao and Liu Feng are the deputy governors, Xu Fu and Zhuge Liang are military advisors, Ma Dai, Ma Tie, Guan Ping, Liu Feng, Zhou Cang, Liao Hua, Yang Feng, Chen Dao, Xu Rong, Wu Anguo, Wang Ping, Ma Zhong, Liu Pan, Wen Ping, He Yi, Chen Jun, Zhang Xiang, Chen Fang, Guan An, Ju Fu, and Mo Keduo are generals. ”

Speaking of this, he looked around at the generals and said: "The Yongzhou side is mainly to prevent Xianbei, Xiongnu, and Fuyu from joining forces with Cao Cao to attack us. On the part of the subordinate, there was a risk of geographical advantage, and he took a defensive position to contain Cao's army. The Qing, Hebei, and Jing sides adopted offense instead of defense, and gradually defeated Cao's army.

In view of the fact that the Cao army will return to the division in time to rescue Qingdao and Hebei, Jingzhou must quickly recover Nanyang, contain the Cao army, and achieve the effect of supporting Qingzhou, for which Ma Chao led 30,000 troops from Shangyong and Xu Fu and Chen to join forces to threaten Xiangyang, Liu Feng led 100,000 troops to cooperate with Nanyang's army to seize the entire territory of Nanyang, and after capturing Nanyang, Liu Wei immediately returned to Yongzhou. ”

After a pause, he said in an accentuated tone: "This military order will be executed today!" ”

After Ma Chao, Liu Feng and the others left, Liu Shi explained a few words to Cao Xing, brought his own army of 20,000, and rushed to Qingzhou with Jia Xu and Pang Tong day and night.

It took more than ten days to arrive in Chang'an, and Liu Shi returned home for the night.

That night, Mrs. Mi Zhen cried: "Ming'er is so young, you can't bear to let him go to Qingzhou?" I've heard that Qingzhou is very dangerous! ”

Liu Shidao: "Now is the time when we are fighting with Cao Cao, the situation is very critical, if I can't take the lead, who is willing to die for us?" Besides, it's over fifteen, and it's not too small. Dian Wei's son, who fought from his father at the age of thirteen, can now lead an army, just because Ming'er is young and has not gone through the battle formation, I transferred him to protect Ming'er. With him and Xiang Xiong, why are you worried? Besides, didn't I go to Qingzhou too? ”

Liu Shi gently stroked Mi Zhen's back and persuaded.

Mi Zhen sobbed softly: "Did I just say that he is still young!" And he has never been too far away from us, and I don't know when I will see him! ”
