Everything that Xiahou Ba escaped from was secretly designed by Adou, and after the pottery bowl was sent, everything was carefully arranged by Adou, and the purpose was naturally to separate Cao and Cao Zhang. (*UC eBook*Chinese Net*Super-Speed Update Latest Chapter*).

If you think about it, there are still big loopholes. For example, this crested mountain is far away in Runan, and Cao Zhang guards Youzhou, separated by thousands of miles, how did Cao Zhang connect with Fengtou Mountain? And this crested mountain is just a group of small school thieves, and Cao Zhang is not a person of the same grade, how can the two come together? Besides, if Cao Zhang really wants to be unfavorable to Cao, it is much more useful to directly buy the officials of Xu Du than to buy a group of small bandits in Fengtou Mountain, and with Cao Zhang's identity, he can have an army of 200,000 in his hands, I believe that many big officials in Xu Du are very eager to take refuge in Cao Zhang's hands.

These are the flaws in Adou's plan, as long as you think about it quietly, you will definitely not fall for it. But just now Xiahou Ba was on the run, like a lost dog, at this time Xiahou Ba definitely didn't have the time to think about the authenticity of things, and what Adou needed was for Xiahou Ba to bring back the information that Fengtoushan and Cao Zhang had colluded, which was enough.

At this time, Xiang Fei next to him frowned, and asked, "Childe, I don't understand, what is the purpose of Childe's use of this discordant scheme?" ”

Adou smiled and replied: "If you think about this strategy carefully, it will definitely be full of flaws, but as long as it can reach Cao's ears, it will be enough." Cao is suspicious and suspicious by nature, scheming, and good at scheming, which Cao has learned enough from his father Cao Cao. If Xiahou Ba brought this news to Xu Du, with the wisdom of Jia Xu and others, he would definitely be able to see that this was a divisive plan. But even if Cao knew that this was a divisive plan, he would be tricked. For Cao, even if there is a 1 in 10,000 possibility of this thing, Cao does not dare to gamble! Therefore, as long as Xiahou Ba brings this news back to Xudu, Cao will definitely not dare to send a large army to Runanwei to chase and intercept us, and we will be much easier at that time. ”

……

Tuzhuang is an inconspicuous small village in Runan, when the Yellow Turban Army was in trouble, the Yellow Turban Army Bo once came here and killed all the people in this Tuzhuang. Later, Cao Cao implemented Tuntian, and more than 100 families moved from outside and settled in this soil village, which can be regarded as having some vitality from the beginning.

However, now it is the month of wax, not the season to grow food, so most of the people of Tuzhuang are nested at home, and the villagers have nothing to do except farming, and it is not the time to sleep in broad daylight, so many people still choose to go to the nearby mountains and fields to see if they can try their luck and encounter something like a wild thing.

In the middle of the village, there is the village chief's house, at this time the village chief is trembling with a bowl of gruel, handed it to Xiahou Ba, Xiahou Ba took the gruel, regardless of the hot mouth, straight into his mouth.

A bowl of gruel in his stomach, Xiahou Ba felt that his body was warm, and at this time, Xiahou Ba felt that this gruel was far more delicious than the delicacies of the mountains and seas made by the imperial chef in the palace.

Right now. The sound of horses' hooves came from outside the village. Breaking the tranquility of this small village. Good people poked their heads out of their windows. Only then did the smoke and dust billowing in the distance. A detachment of cavalry galloped in. And among the cavalry. There were also a few people in the mix. The sharp-eyed man swept towards that. Isn't this the county lord and the captain of Tuntian!

A group of people came directly to the village chief's house and dismounted. The county lord cautiously pointed to the village chief's house. Then he spoke: "General Xiahou." This is the village chief's house! ”

See this scene. The villagers were all stunned. The lord of this county is the biggest magistrate in the area. Now he has become like an obedient kitten. I didn't even dare to come out of the atmosphere. This group of cavalry is definitely not an ordinary person.

Xiahou Shangfei dismounted. Strode inside. At the same time, he shouted: "Zhongquan." You're in there! ”

"Brother!" Xiahou Ba stood up suddenly. Fly and walk outside. just bumped into Xiahou Shang, who was rushing towards him. This Xiahou Ba hasn't eaten for a few days. The body has long been empty. Where can withstand Xiahou Shang's collision. I saw a bang. Xiahou Ba was knocked to the ground.

"Zhongquan? It's really you! Xiahou Shang hurriedly went up to help Xiahou Ba. Seeing Xiahou Ba's embarrassed appearance. Xiahou Shang's heart was sour. After all, the two have been brothers for decades. Now Xiahou Ba looks like this. Xiahou Shang, how can he not be uncomfortable when he is an elder brother.

"Brother, you have suffered!" Xiahou Shang said, tears wandering around his eyes, and they almost fell.

"Brother, don't talk so much, I heard an important news, you have to help me figure out a way!"

Xiahou Ba started from rushing into the crested village, telling Xiahou Shang how he was defeated and captured, how he took advantage of the bandits' lax defense to escape, and how he heard the conversation of Adou and his group by chance. This was said for more than an hour, and finally Xiahou Ba asked: "Brother, I am in a dilemma now, what do you say I should do?" ”

Xiahou Ba is Xiahou Yuan's second son, and he is also the best one among Xiahou Yuan's sons, so all along, whether it is Cao Cao or Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Ba has been regarded as a key training object. Therefore, when Xiahou Ba was a child, he often studied literature and martial arts with Brother Cao Caozhang. It can be said that Xiahouba and the Cao brothers grew up together.

Now, this involves the fight between Cao and Cao Zhang, and Xiahou Ba doesn't know who to help, the so-called palm is meat, and the back of the hand is also meat. If you tell Cao the news, it will be equivalent to ruining Cao Zhang's good deeds, but if you don't tell Cao the news, it will be tantamount to harming Cao, so Xiahou Ba will feel in a dilemma.

After listening to Xiahou Shang next to him, he nodded without changing his face, but there was a monstrous wave in his heart, Xiahou Shang took a slight breath, forced himself to calm down, and then began to slowly analyze the ins and outs of the matter.

Thinking about it carefully, Xiahou Shang has a lot of flaws here. Let's not say that Youzhou and Runan are far apart, just say that this crested village is just a group of bandits, even if this Cao Zhang really wants to seize the throne, he will not find this gang of bandits to help. Moreover, the three hundred bandits in the crested mountain area, even if they can fight one against ten, they may not be able to set off too much storm in Runan. All this seems too unreasonable.

However, Xiahou Shang still decided to tell Cao about it.

is different from Xiahou Ba, although Xiahou Shang is Xiahou Yuandi's son, he has a very good relationship with Cao, and the relationship between Xiahou Shang and Cao is more like a friend.

So after Xiahou Shang got the news, although he felt that something was wrong, he still decided to tell Cao about it.

Xiahou Shang said to Xiahou Ba: "Brother,

It's a big deal, don't tell anyone about it, you can leave the matter of recuperation to my brother first! ”

Xiahou Ba nodded, and sighed mournfully: "I folded six hundred tigers and leopards this time, and let that Liu Chan escape, after returning to Xudu, the prince will definitely punish me, hey......"

After hearing Xiahou Ba say this, Xiahou Shang naturally understood that this was to let him beg Cao to intercede. Xiahou Ba is his own brother, so he can't help but help, so Xiahou Shang patted Xiahou Ba's shoulder and said: "Brother, this matter will be handed over to me, I will try to talk to the prince and ask for mercy." Besides, this battle is really because the enemy is too cunning, and it is not your fault, presumably with the prince's generosity, he should not blame you. ”

……

The Xiahou brothers took the rest of the tigers and leopards to ride and soon returned to Xudu. After arriving in Xudu, Xiahou Ba immediately went to ask Cao for his guilt. Cao was naturally very angry when he heard that Xiahou Ba was defeated by a group of bandits, and he also folded six hundred tigers and leopards to ride.

But looking back, this Xiahou Ba's father Xiahou Yuan is still very prestigious in the Cao army, which can even say something with Xiahou Ba in the Cao army, plus Xiahou Shang pleaded from the side, so Cao finally decided to spare Xiahou Ba temporarily, and at the same time, it can be regarded as selling Xiahou Ba and Xiahou Shang a favor, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

Prime Minister's Office.

After reading the last document, Cao Ping stood up and knocked on his shoulder, loosening his muscles.

Looking at the various documents on the table like a hill, Cao sighed slightly, it took him more than ten years and painstaking efforts to take the position of Prince Wei from a few younger brothers, but now it seems that this Prince Wei is not easy to be at all, now he is a prisoner of the country, and all the affairs of various places are pressed on his shoulders, and Cao Cao in order to show himself in front of Cao Cao, he does everything himself, getting up at dawn every day, and going home after dark.

Looking at the already dark sky outside, Cao Cao touched his stomach and forgot to eat dinner again.

At this moment, the chamberlain came in from outside, followed by Xiahou Shang.

Xiahou Shang and Cao have a deep personal relationship, and Cao Di's personal servants naturally know about it, so Xiahou Shang asks to see Cao, and he never needs to pass it on, if this is Cao's mansion, Xiahou Shang doesn't even need the inner attendant to lead the way, he can go in and out directly, but because this is the Prime Minister's Mansion and Cao Cao's place of residence, Xiahou Shang doesn't dare to trespass around, so he follows the rules and lets the inner servant bring him in.

Cao looked up and saw that it was Xiahou Shang who came, and he didn't see it, and pointed to the side and said, "Boren, sit down." ”

Xiahou Shang looked around, and then said to Cao: "His Royal Highness the Prince, there is something important to report below!" ”

Cao immediately understood, pointed to the attendant who was waiting next to him, and said, "I'm a little hungry, you guys go and get me something." ”

The interior of this Prime Minister's Mansion is full of smart people, and they naturally know that this Cao and Xiahou still have important matters to discuss, and they don't want to be heard. And Cao Ke is the future master of the Prime Minister's Mansion, so several of the surrounding chamberlains retreated very obediently.

Before leaving, he also took the door with him.

After everyone left, Cao Cai asked solemnly, "Boren, what's the matter?" ”

"Prince, things are ...... like this," Xiahou Shang told Cao what had happened.

After hearing this, Cao's brows furrowed, and Cao himself didn't believe that Cao Zhang would find a group of bandits to help. But when it came to the matter of seizing the land, Cao didn't dare to make a conclusion, Cao thought about it and said, "Boren, follow me to find Mr." ”

The reality in Cao's mouth is naturally Jia Xu. When Cao Cao was leaving, he had instructed Cao to go to Jia Xu if he encountered something undecided, so at this time Cao decided to listen to Jia Xu's opinion.

After coming to Jia Xu's mansion, Cao told Jia Xu what happened, Jia Xu frowned after hearing it, thought for a while, and then said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, if what I expected is good, this must be Liu Chan's divisive plan!" The purpose is naturally to divide the feelings between the prince's brothers, so that the prince's brothers are not in harmony, and he can reap the benefits of the fisherman. ”

"Sir, in order to make this judgment?" Cao asked.

"It's simple. First, this Liu Chan worshiped under Xu Shu in Xu Du back then, and now he can defeat Xiahou Ba with three hundred thieves and six hundred tigers and leopards, which is definitely not a fluke, this Liu Chan has always been quite familiar with the way of using soldiers, so this Liu Chan will definitely not let Xiahou Ba run away so easily, if my expectations are good, Xiahou Ba must have been deliberately let go by Liu Chan. ”

"Second, the third son, Cao Zhang, is well versed in the art of war, and now he has been stationed in Youzhou for many years, so he naturally has a lot of experience in leading troops. Therefore, the third prince will definitely not go to a gang of robbers to help him succeed. ”

"Third, now that the lord is still here, if the third prince really has the heart to seize the heir, he will inevitably wait until the lord is not there, and the lord is here, which is a restriction for the third prince, even if the third prince thinks about it, the people and horses of Youzhou will not necessarily follow, but if the lord is not there, then the third prince will raise his arms and shout, with 200,000 Youzhou iron horses under his hand, it is enough to sweep Hebei and point to Xudu. With these three points, it is enough to conclude that this is the divisive strategy used by Liu Chan! ”

Cao nodded suddenly: "What Mr. said makes sense, then may I ask Sir, what should we do next?" ”

"Now that you know that Liu Chan is in Runan, and he still has hundreds of soldiers and horses under him, then you should send a large army to encircle and suppress it!" Xu said categorically.

"How many people does you think will benefit you?"

Jia Xu lowered his head, thought for a while, and said: "This Liu Chan is quite good at using soldiers, don't underestimate him, and there are many bandits in Runan, the situation is complicated, and the variables are very large, I think at least 20,000 horses must be sent to make it happen!" ”

Speaking of this, Jia Xu looked at Cao, and then said: "This matter still needs His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to make a decision as soon as possible." This Liu Chan is now a big trouble for the henchmen of the lord's land, a few days ago, he turned Jingzhou upside down with his own strength, and played with Dongwu between applause, and finally even Lu Meng of Dongwu died in his hands, and later rescued Guan Yu, which shows that this son is by no means an ordinary person. Runan was originally a mountain thief and bandit, and Liu Bei used to operate in Runan back then, if this Liu Chanzhan is allowed to be extended, I am afraid that it will not be long before Runan will be lost. This Runan is close to Yingchuan and is also very close to Xudu, Runan is uneasy, and it can directly threaten the safety of Xudu, so His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must take advantage of its fledgling to get rid of it! ”

Cao nodded, did not say anything, and thought to himself.

Most of the main forces of Cao's army were brought to Mozhi by Cao Cao, and now Cao Cao has not returned, Cao does not have many men and horses in his hands, and there are only three places that Cao can mobilize in the entire Yingchuan Cao

Nothing more.

With these 30,000 horses in his hands, I am afraid that Cao Zhang really attacked with an army of 200,000, so he can hold on for a period of time If he transfers out 20,000 at once, then Cao Zhang will attack him, and it will inevitably fall in less than ten days.

Although Jia Xu swore that Liu Chan was using a discordant strategy, if the information that Xiahou Ba found out was true, and he had transferred the army out, then Cao Zhang's attack, what would he use to block it?

The so-called not afraid of 10,000 is afraid of what if, thinking of this, Cao couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

Cao secretly looked at Jia Xu again, and the old thing was still calm. Speaking of which, if Cao Zhang really attacked, he would not hurt Jia Xu, but Cao himself would not be killed. Looking back and thinking about the history of Jia Xu, he followed Dong Zhuo in his early years, then followed Li, and then followed Zhang Zhu, and finally followed Cao Cao, looking at the final fate of his first three masters. But this Jia Xu has changed the master four times, but the official is getting bigger and bigger, it seems that this Jia Xu is very good at saving his life.

With Jia Xu's character, Cao felt that if Cao Zhang really attacked, this Jia Xu would not live and die with him! Maybe when Cao Zhang enters the city, Jia Xu will be the first to come out to welcome him. Looking at Jia Xu's painless expression now, Cao Xu pondered in his heart, Xiahou Ba said that if it was true, then this Jia Xu would not suffer, anyway, Cao Zhang not only would not trouble Jia Xu, but also regarded him as a guest, so this Jia Xu was not nervous at all. But he is different, if Cao Zhang enters Xu Du, then he still has his life? Even if there is a 1 in 10,000 possibility that Xiahou Ba said, Cao himself does not dare to bet on the 9,999 per 10,000, because if Cao loses the bet, he will lose his life.

Thinking of this, Cao Tie made up his mind, no matter what, he would never be able to transfer Yingchuan, the only 30,000 people, to be transferred, even if Runan was really noisy, he had to wait until Cao Cao returned to the army and Xu Du. Besides, Liu Chan only has 300 bandits, and he can't set off many storms, so let him make trouble. Even if the whole Runan gives it to him, it can't shake Cao's roots, and when Cao Cao's army arrives, this Liu Chan will still have to be finished, and now the biggest threat is still that Cao Zhang in Youzhou! Liu Chan, it's just that the disease of mustard is already!

I saw Cao Wei smile, bowed slightly to Jia Xu, and said: "Thank you Mr. for your advice, then I won't disturb Mr. to rest, I'll leave first!" ”

Looking at Cao's departing figure, Jia Xu smiled helplessly, this Jia Xu is very good at being a minister, good at figuring out the master's mind, and it is precisely because of this that Jia Xu can change a master and be promoted to an official. Now seeing that Cao left without making a clear statement, Jia Xu immediately understood what Cao was worried about.

This His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is too scheming, in this troubled world, although this kind of character is very suitable for survival, but sometimes it also harms himself. From the point of view of this Liu Chan's style of acting, he is eclectic, quite like Cao Cao, but he is more calm than Cao Cao, think about the three-year-old child back then, and now he has grown into such a person, and the big trouble has been cultivated, and now is the perfect time to solve this big trouble, but it seems that this good time is Cao Sheng's mistake, speaking of which, although Liu Chan's discordant plan is full of flaws, but it can force Cao Zhongji, this Liu Chan is not simple!

Suddenly, Jia Xu thought of Xu Shu. Since this Xu Shu joined Cao Cao's command, he has not come up with a single plan, and he can be said to be the number one idler under Cao Cao, but the treatment of this idler is much higher than that of ordinary ministers, which makes many people angry. It's just gold, and it will be light wherever it goes, and now this disciple taught by Xu Shu will become the biggest trouble for Cao Wei and Dongwu in the future!

Jia Xu squinted his eyes slightly, and sighed secretly in his heart: I really want to be twenty years younger, if I am twenty years younger, I must fight with this Liu Chan, but unfortunately, I am already old, and I am about to die, and the future of the world depends on these young people to fight for it......

……

Yangpingguan.

At this time, Wei Yan had already led the army back to Yangping Pass. Jingzhou was lost, but Guan Yu returned to Shangyong safely, so there was no need for Wei Yan to hang around outside Yangping Pass. His 30,000 horses seem to be a lot, but to put it on such a large territory as Yongzhou, it is just a drop in the ocean, and Cao Cao reacted very quickly, and immediately sent Cao Hong to lead 80,000 troops to intercept him, that Cao Hong, Zhang and Xu Chu, none of them are easy to deal with, plus they have few people, which makes Wei Yan always worried, and now he returns to Yangping Pass, and finally breathes a sigh of relief.

Although Wei Yan returned to Yangping Pass, he was not in a hurry to return to Hanzhong, because Wei Yan received a message that Guan Yu was going to return to Chengdu through Yangping Pass. So Wei Yan, Ma Chao and the others simply rested at this Yangping Pass, and at the same time they were waiting for Guan Yu's arrival.

On the upper floor of Yangping Guancheng, Wei Yan looked into the distance. Now that Jingzhou is lost, with Liu Bei's personality, he may raise troops to retaliate against Dongwu, if Liu Bei attacks Dongwu, he will definitely go down the Yangtze River, and then it has nothing to do with his own Hanzhong Taishou, it seems that he is going to be a spectator again!

Thinking of this, Wei Yan clenched his fists unwillingly. Wei Yan is good at everything, he wants martial arts, he wants to be resourceful, and he is also very good at governing places, but the only drawback is greed. Every time he goes on an expedition, even if it is a little credit, Wei Yan will not let it go.

At this moment, there was billowing smoke and dust in the distance, Wei Yan hurriedly looked carefully, and saw a team of people and horses coming straight to Yangping Pass in the distance.

The rapid drums sounded, and the defenders on Yangping Pass immediately took their places, bent their bows and arrows, and watched cautiously into the distance, and not long after, Ma Chao, Ma and Zhang Yi and others also hurriedly ran up to the city tower.

At this time, a team of people and horses appeared in the distance, looking from afar, a big flag fluttering in the middle, a big "Guan" word on it, under the flag, a general, riding a fiery war horse, is rushing towards Yangping Pass. Although the distance was far away, I couldn't see this person's face clearly, but I could feel the momentum on his body!

Guan Yu is finally here!

The text is 6130 words sent. Today, I finished the gluttony and went to see a show, so it was even later, this performance was performed in the water, or in the open air, and the light wind blew, which made the gluttony shiver all over, and it took half a day to recover after going home. I haven't added more to the day before yesterday, but I'll start writing it now and wait until tomorrow. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next.)
