Although Huo Yu was far away in Hanzhong County, he did not issue any orders to Youzhou. Regarding the current situation, perhaps Xi Zhicai and others know better than him, so the redundant general orders will disrupt the overall layout of his military division team, so it is better to be a hands-off shopkeeper.

But for Lu Bu, Huo Yu still had lingering palpitations, after all, the bloody facts were there. Therefore, after a short stay in Hanzhong to recuperate, Huo Yu decided to go to Wancheng in person to explore Lu Bu's hole cards.

"Shia! Can messengers from the Western Regions be sent? ”

In the face of the alliance of the three families, Huo Yu, in order not to travel to the pool, wrote a letter to let Dark Yuwei send it to the Western Regions as quickly as possible. Not to mention anything else, in case the war changes, the army returning from the Western Regions is his last hole card.

"The messenger from the Western Regions has set off, please rest assured!"

Shi A knew the situation in front of him best, so when Huo Yu ordered him to send someone to the Western Regions to deliver a message, he personally selected a group of people to go.

Huo Yu nodded, not speaking.

Three days ago, Huo Yu had already issued a mobilization order, and the whole of Hanzhong County had already begun to prepare for war. Not only that, Zhang Yan's Black Wolf Army also began to actively prepare in Brazil County.

Even Ma Dai was sent back to Xiliang by Huo Yu, asking Ma Teng and Zhang Ji to start gathering troops and horses in case of emergency.

Kicking and kicking, there was a rush of footsteps.

"See the lord!"

"Yide, Ben Hou will leave for Wancheng to meet Lu Bu on the same day, and then return to Youzhou."

"Lord, only take two thousand flying feathers to ride the terror..."Zhang Fei didn't finish his words, but Huo Yu raised his hand to stop him.

"Filial piety will stay by your side, listen and think more when encountering problems, and don't act recklessly!"

"I wrote it down!"

After repeatedly telling Zhang Fei, Huo Yu gave Zhang Fei and Fa Zheng the right to facilitate their actions, and then took Dian Wei, Ma Chao, Zhu Rong and two thousand Fei Yu to ride towards Shangyong in the wind and snow.

Just as Huo Yu was heading towards Wancheng, Cao Cao, who was far away in Yanzhou, was paying attention to the development of the current situation.

Below Cao Cao, Xun Yu and Cheng Yu stood separately. Cheng Yu was telling about the situation after the Youzhou Army sent troops, and stopped when he talked about Lu Bu.

"It's really a pity that I didn't say that Lu Bu joined the alliance!" Hearing Cheng Yu's words, Cao Cao felt sorry for a while. If Lu Bu joins the alliance, then how can the previous battle situation be like this.

Whether it is Jiangdong or Jingzhou, no matter which direction is successful, it will not form the current situation. I thought that I would be able to compete with Huo Yu if I was a brave soldier.

Who knows, the combat power of the Youzhou Army is so strong. Moreover, the degree of coordination and cooperation between the various ministries is so high that Cao Cao is amazed.

Seeing that Qingzhou was about to arrive, who expected that Huang Zhong would lead the minister to drive straight to Chen Liu. Even Cao Ren who stayed behind couldn't stop Huang Zhong's edge, and this move to encircle Wei and save Zhao made Cao Cao very uncomfortable.

"Lord, if it weren't for Sima Zhongda this time, Chen Liu's fear would be difficult to keep!"

"Oh? Who is this? ”

Hearing Cheng Yu's recommendation, Cao Cao was immediately puzzled.

"Sima Yizi Zhongda, great-grandfather Sima Jun was the general of the expedition to the west when Emperor An of the Han Dynasty, great-grandfather Sima Liang was Yuzhang Taishou, grandfather Sima Jun was Yingchuan Taishou, and father Sima Fang was Zeng Jing Zhaoyin. Sima Fangyu has eight sons, because there is a "Da" word in the word, known as Sima Bada. ”

Hearing Cheng Yu say this, Cao Cao suddenly remembered something.

"I have heard people say that they are rarely strange, smart and strategic, erudite and informed, subdued Confucianism, and often worry about the world." Xun Yu, who had been speechless, suddenly added.

Hearing the words of his two strategists, Cao Cao suddenly fell in love with talent. In the past, I only envied Huo Yu, but I didn't expect him Cao Cao to have today's joy.

"Speaking from the heart, Zhongda can do this, which is already very good! After all, the number of troops at that time was limited! Cheng Yu's evaluation of Sima Yi is indeed very high.

Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard this, how could he be an unknown person if he could get the recommendation of his two subordinates.

"By the way, where is Huang Zhong's department now?" Cao Cao thought for a moment and asked.

"At this time, he has returned to the territory of Yuzhou, and stationed troops with Chen Guo. However, according to Sima Zhongda's analysis, Huang Zhong's style of this battle is quite the shadow of Guo Jia! ”

"So, what should you do?"

Since Cao Cao had taken the lead in tearing his face, of course he knew in his heart that Huo Yu would definitely send troops to retaliate, but it was already winter, and the battle between the two sides would be after spring ploughing.

"Defend, wait for the right time!" Xun Yu and Cheng Yu said in unison.

In fact, this is also due to the gap in strength. Judging from the current situation, Jiangdong Sun Quan is the most powerful, followed by Cao Cao, and finally Liu Biao.

According to the analysis of the two, even if Huo Yu had the intention to retaliate, he would pick a soft persimmon and pinch it first. Liu Biao is naturally the best candidate.

Three-front combat? It's not that the two haven't thought about it, but it's unlikely. After all, Huo Yu hadn't prepared enough. As for Lu Bu, Yu Liu Biao's strength had already weakened to the extreme in several battles. Even with Huo Yu's support, he couldn't make any big waves.

"In practice, it is!" Cao Cao touched his beard.

Now, all the states and counties around Yanzhou have been taken by the Youzhou army, and there is only one force left in the north. Even if Huo Yu was going to fight a decisive battle, it would definitely be after weakening the power of the alliance.

So how long Liu Biao can hold out determines how much time Cao Cao has to develop his own strength.

"Take the lead in sending troops to take Yuzhou?" Cao Cao shook his head.

Since there is Guo Jia in Yuzhou, with a Huang Zhong added, it will be difficult to deal with for a while. After thinking about it, Cao Cao felt that it was better to seize the time to continue his strength and wait for the final battle with Huo Yu.

In fact, in the past three years, taking advantage of Huo Yu's filial piety, Cao Cao has not made any preparations, originally thought that he could take Qingzhou with one blow, but it backfired.

Although his strength is not as good as Huo Yu, he is not without fierce generals under his command, and at least he still has the ability! It's just that the gap in the number of troops will not be able to be made up for a while.

"Report! The main company Ma Yi asks to meet! Just when Cao Cao was thinking about it, the guards came to report.

When Sima Yi appeared in front of Cao Cao's eyes, Cao Cao subconsciously said: "Wolf Gu Xiang!" “

"Uh..."

At this time, not only Sima Yi, but even Xun Yu and Cheng Yu were a little stunned.

"Thank you Ming Gong for the compliment!" Sima Yi was fearless.

"Duke Ming, forgive the grass people for being rude, the attack on Youzhou launched before is really unwise." Sima Yi's words are not shocking, and he is endless.

"Look, the champion Hou is a person, and the grass people don't think that the champion Hou will not leave a little backhand! The defeat of Qingzhou was due to the lack of preparation of Ming Gong, and he failed to fully recognize the gap with Youzhou! ”

"Now that the matter is now, please calm down and step up the development of strength!"

When Sima Yi met Cao Cao for the first time, he unceremoniously pointed out Cao Cao's problem.

At this time, Cao Cao had been awakened by Sima Yi's words. Although it has been developing for three years, the advantages of Youzhou still exist.

"What advice does Chung Tat have?" Cao Cao, who came to his senses, asked.

"Ming Gong, please see!" Sima Yi walked to the front of the map without saying a word, and then pointed his finger at the one on the map.

"Guandu?" Cao Cao, Xun Yu, and Cheng Yu said in unison.
