Chapter 668: Yang Xiu Liwei
Yang Xiu looked at Cao Ren and Li Dian in front of him, and he felt that these words were still a bit mysterious.
"Why was this Sima Yi washed away by the water?" Yang Xiu looked at Cao Ren and Li Dian and asked.
Although he wants to compete with Sima Yi and wants to surpass him.
But that doesn't mean he wants Sima Yi to die.
He wants to compete with Sima Yi, that is to prove that he Yang Xiu is more awesome.
But Sima Yi fell inexplicably, what is that?
If Yang Xiu knew, maybe it could be explained by a line from Sun Wukong in later generations of TV.
You fell before I could do anything.
Before he Yang Xiu stepped on your head and pretended to be forced, you Sima Yi fell, of course he was unhappy.
Soon Cao Ren told Yang Xiu what happened in Xinye, from the burning of the Xinye Han army to the cannibalism of the Han army, to the final discharge of the Baihe River and the arrival of Liu Wei's army.
When he heard the front, Yang Xiu was quite satisfied with the time when you Sima Yi still had some ability, but when he heard the back, he was surprised.
According to what Cao Ren said, it is true that there is no big problem with Sima Yi's arrangement, and it can even be said to be a correct decision.
But now it seems that the stupidest thing about him is to go to the White River himself.
It seems that being overconfident is not a good thing, at least not for you Sima Yi.
In the end, Yang Xiu sneered in his heart and said.
"In this way, isn't Sima Yi's life and death unknown now?" Yang Xiu looked at Cao Ren and Li Dian and said.
Although Cao Ren and the others were helpless, they still nodded in the end.
They didn't know where Sima Yi was washed away, and when the water from the upstream poured down, Sima Yi bore the brunt of it.
"There's no time to look for Sima Yi now, after Liu Wei takes Xinye, he will inevitably attack Xiangyang, as long as he occupies Xiangyang, he can encroach on Jingzhou."
Yang Xiu didn't mean to deliberately say that he wouldn't go to Sima Yi, because what he said was the truth.
Cao Ren and Li Dian are naturally also clear, although they are not as strategicistic as strategists, and they are thousands of miles away.
However, Cao Ren and Li Dian have average martial arts, but they have outstanding talents in governing the army, so they can still be judged.
And if they can't hold Jingzhou, then it means that all this will be in vain.
The previous efforts were in vain, and the springboard in Jingzhou would be completely useless.
Liu Wei led the men and horses towards Xiangyang, but it still took some time.
And Sun Quan, who is paying attention to the changes in Jingzhou and is always ready to grab food, naturally knows the news.
They weren't too surprised by the outcome of the first battle of Shinno.
In Zhou Yu's words, that is, Xinye is too small after all, and the most that can be achieved is to severely damage the Han army.
But what they didn't expect was the news that Sima Yi's whereabouts were unknown.
"Gong Jin, this Sima Yi's whereabouts are unknown, could it be a conspiracy?" Sun Quan looked at Zhou Yu and asked.
Although if Sima Yi really died, he would be very happy, not only because there was one less enemy, but also because he would avenge Sun Ce.
Although this revenge was not avenged by him personally, he could still relieve the hatred after all.
"No, this is not Sima Yi's strategy, he is not so stupid." Zhou Yu shook his head and said after listening to Sun Quan's words.
Water and fire are ruthless, if you can, of course, it is most advantageous to flood the Han army, and it is not something that smart people do to put themselves in.
"It stands to reason that this Sima Yi's strategy should be a complete victory, but I didn't expect Liu Wei to be able to anticipate the enemy's opportunity."
Lu Su finally frowned and said, they are thinking about reaping the benefits, if Jingzhou loses too quickly, it will definitely not be good news for them.
At that time, before he took Shouchun and Huainan, Liu Wei had already taken Jingzhou, so wouldn't he be able to draw out people to deal with them in the end.
"Lord, we should change our strategy, attack Jingzhou, share a mouthful of soup, and then we can use Jingzhou as a stronghold."
Zhou Yu thought about it and said, now according to the situation of Cao Jun's insistence, it is not easy to deal with Lu Bu.
"Attack Jiangxia Huangzu and conquer Jiangxia in one fell swoop."
Zhou Yu pointed to Jiang Xia on the map and said, the capture of Jiang Xia not only succeeded in getting involved in Jingzhou, but also the risk was small.
Even if Cao Cao is angry, now is not the time for him to turn his face.
What's more, he only occupies Jingzhou in name, Jiangxia is too guarded by Huang Zu, and he is already domineering, but I am afraid that he will not obey Cao Cao's dispatch.
Take Jiang Xia, maybe Cao Cao will have to thank himself.
"Okay, then everything will be handed over to Gongjin, and all the Jiangdong soldiers and horses will be at your disposal."
Sun Quan immediately decided that if he didn't do it, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to drink the soup.
Liu Wei's army also arrived in Xiangyang three days later, and at this time, the army was in full swing, so it was natural to speed up.
Moreover, in this way, it can also reduce the preparation time of the Xiangyang defenders, so that they can more appreciate the defeat of Xinye.
Increase their fears and lower their morale.
"Report, my lord, the Han army has come to the city, and now Xiangyang has been surrounded."
When Yang Xian was discussing with everyone, suddenly a soldier hurriedly came to report, looking flustered.
"What's the panic, isn't it just a mere Han army, you are shouting, what kind of system has become." Yang Xiu glanced at the man and said very unhappily.
"Come on, pull him down, and the military law will deal with it." Yang Xiu looked at the man and said.
"Adult, spare your life, the little one knows that he is wrong."
"Your Excellency spares your life."
"What are you doing in a daze, don't take it down." Yang Xiu stood with his hands in his hands and said coldly.
What is needed at this time is to stabilize morale, and it just so happened that this soldier bumped into him, so naturally he couldn't be blamed.
"Although the Han army is menacing now, we are guarding Xiangyang, and the city is high and the walls are deep, so what are we afraid of?"
"In the future, whoever dares to panic, shout, and disturb the morale of the army will be dealt with by military law."
After Cao Ren and Li Dian heard this, they also looked at Yang Xiu with some surprise.
Before, Cao Cao asked them to listen to Sima Yi and Yang Xiu, but he was still not satisfied with Yang Xiu.
I think this is just a person who likes to be showy and play tricks.
But now it seems to be different, this young man still has goods.
For a while, Cao Ren's hearts were settled, after all, they were still a little scared after the first battle in Xinye.
"Come with me to the city." After Yang Xiu finished speaking, he strode directly in the direction of Xiangyang City.
Outside the city, Liu Wei and the others also sighed when they looked at this Xiangyang City, and they had been to Xiangyang a few times before.
Finally, this time Xiangyang City closed the gate to him, and it took human life to pry it open.
However, there is no way to do this, but now that Sima Yi is no longer in Xiangyang, even if this Xiangyang City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is not impossible.
Just as Liu Wei was about to give the order to attack, he suddenly noticed a change in the city.
"Listen, people in the city, I am crusading against the rebels and rebels, and if you are willing to surrender, I can not blame the past."
Liu Wei looked at the city and said, after all, it is still necessary to persuade him to surrender, first, to show his benevolence, and secondly, to affect the morale of the opponent's army.
"I have heard the name of Your Majesty for a long time, and when I see it today, it is really worthy of the name, but this Xiangyang is the land of Cao Gong, forgive me Yang Xiu for not being able to fulfill Your Majesty."
Yang Xiu stood at the head of the city, looked at Liu Wei, and said with a sneer.
"Yang Xiu?" Liu Wei was also stunned, this chicken boss?
"You are the son of Taiwei Yang Biao, Yang Xiu?" Liu Wei asked.
"Yes, it's rare that Your Majesty still remembers my father, but even so, I can't obey my fate."
Liu Wei didn't expect that it was really Yang Xiu, which was a bit difficult to do, after all, Yang Xiu was still talented.
He also understands that Yang Xiu is unwilling to take refuge in himself, and he chooses Cao Cao.
At the beginning, Yang Biao was reluctant to follow him and leave, but now he is very powerful, I am afraid that Yang Biao will not have the face to see him.
I'm even worried about whether I'll hold a grudge.
Subsequently, Liu Wei did not talk nonsense, and directly ordered the army to start attacking the city, no matter what Yang Xiu did, it was impossible for him to return empty-handed.
The battle of Xiangyang began, but it was a little calmer in another place.
"Miss, hasn't he woken up yet?"
