Chapter 439: Sima Yi sitting firmly at home

"The third brother thinks that if Liu Feng is replaced by a brother, can he achieve Liu Feng's achievements as a brother?" When Sima Yi heard this, he asked with a serious face.

Sima Fu saw that his brother didn't seem to be joking, so he thought for a while and replied: "Although my brother is wise, I really don't know who can be higher than Liu Feng, but in terms of martial arts, my brother is a lot worse than Liu Feng, and the reason why Liu Feng can rise so fast is mostly because of his superior martial arts. ”

Obviously, although Sima Fu did not say it explicitly, the implication was that if Liu Feng was replaced by Sima Yi, it would be difficult to achieve Liu Feng's current achievements.

But for his younger brother's truth, Sima Yi did not have any displeasure, but rolled his eyes and continued to ask: "In this case, how am I compared to the current coach Yang Xiu?" ”

Sima Fu didn't hesitate at all this time, just snorted coldly and said, "How can Yang Xiu compare to his brother?" That guy is just relying on the advantage of being with the lord since childhood, as for leading the troops to fight, he definitely does not have the wisdom of his brother, so what Yang Xiu is good at is chanting poetry and some boring word games, which is not the first choice for being a general at all. ”

Since the third brother understands this truth, how can he not relax and wait for the changes? If Yang Xiu led an army of 300,000 to face Liu Feng with only 350,000 horses, then it is needless to say that the victory or defeat is needless to say, but Liu Feng wants to take out 100,000 horses is more than enough, and I heard that when Liu Feng sent 80,000 troops to Luoyang, although his sergeants did not fight the defenders of Luoyang head-on, but I heard that just seeing the equipment and weapons of the sergeants under Liu Feng's command, our army lost a few points in morale first, if this is the case, 300,000 against 100,000, the victory or defeat is still unknown......"

After listening to Sima Yi's analysis, Sima Fu wanted to refute but couldn't think of anything to refute for a while, he only knew that his brother had been able to see a lot of things they couldn't see since he was young, as for this time, although most of the people in Wei State, including him, were optimistic that Yang Xiu would be able to defeat Liu Feng in one battle, but once Yang Xiu failed to meet the expectations of public opinion in such a situation, wouldn't the opportunity of the Sima family come.

Unlike Sima Yi, who seems to be passive, is still sitting firmly at home in Diaoyutai, Yang Xiu, who is now in command of 300,000 troops in all directions, but he is not as calm as he seems.

As Sima Yi said, the reason for this situation is that Yang Xiu has not really made any important feats on the battlefield alone, and he knows that Liu Feng is a god-of-war existence that has really been trained on the battlefield, Liu Feng's achievements have been accumulated bit by bit, and he relied on a series of tricks to take over this important position of commander from Sima Yi's hands, although Yang Xiu's heart was full of ambition at the beginning, thinking that he would definitely be able to shine in the military. But when the situation of really following behind the 300,000 army, only winning and not defeating happened to him, Yang Xiu's heart was unconfident.

At this time, Yang Xiu kept discussing with Zhang Liao how to capture Nanyang and Xiangyang is the best choice for himself, Zhang Liao is a rare handsome talent, this Yang Xiu is very clear in his heart, so this time he made up his mind that what he could not solve, he had to look at Zhang Liao's opinion.

For Yang Xiu's abnormal caution, Zhang Liao is also a little inexplicable in his heart, according to his previous understanding of Yang Xiu, he should be an extremely rigid and self-serving person, but at this time, he actually directly discussed his attack with himself, which couldn't help but cast a shadow on Zhang Liao's heart, he often followed Cao Cao to go out in his early years, Cao Cao used troops, but never asked the deputy general first, Yang Xiu did this, it does not prove that he is humble, but only proves that he has no confidence in his own ability, When such a coach meets Liu Feng, who is known as a murderer, how can Zhang Liao be at peace in his heart.

When Xu Chu and Xu Huang led the vanguard straight to Nanyang, Nanyang County was already a scene of waiting.

In Zhao Yun's mansion, almost all the heads of Liu Feng's forces gathered in a small study at this time, and Liu Feng had just arrived here from Xiangyang in person.

Xiangyang, which has just stabilized, is maintained by Xu Shu and Lu Su, and Zhou Yu, Pang Tong, Ma Chao, Wei Yan and others were all brought to Nanyang by Liu Feng, plus the cavalry brought by Ma Chao, the garrison in Nanyang has reached nearly 100,000, obviously, Liu Feng does not want Cao Zhi's 300,000 army to invade his territory, Nanyang is also a place where Liu Feng must defend.

From this time on, Liu Feng will never give up any bit of his territory for any reason, in his heart, the time of dormancy and forbearance has passed, and now, he wants to leak out his fangs, let the world know what kind of development he has reached in Yizhou these days, and now Yang Xiu is the first person he brought to sacrifice the flag.

"What do you think we should do for the vanguard of Cao Jun?"

is also to ask for the opinions of the people under his command, if Zhang Liao is under Liu Feng's account at this time, he will find that Liu Feng and Yang Xiu are compared and judged.

Although Liu Feng was asking about the people under his command, whether it was his eyes or bearing, he had a sense of confidence, obviously he already had an idea about this matter in his heart, and the inquiry was just to let the people under his command improve his ideas, and Yang Xiu was asking for help from his subordinates with confused eyes.

After listening to Liu Feng's words, everyone glanced at each other, and then Pang Tong spoke first: "Yang Xiu led an army of 300,000, which is already a fierce and invincible state, and the pioneer Xu Chu wants to be ashamed of it, if our army wants to achieve the final victory in this battle, this sharp spirit must be ruthlessly defeated, so in my opinion, this time we should not stick to the city, but should plan first, and give it a head-on blow, only in this way can we leave a shadow in Cao Jun's heart and rub it out!" ”

Offensive or defensive, for Liu Feng at this time is indeed a big problem, and only by first setting the strategy, can we consider the problem of tactics, Pang Tong's words, it is to show that the strategy of this battle should be to attack the posture of Xu Chu first to thwart Xu Chu's spirit, not nearly 100,000 troops all gathered in the city to defend, in that case, once the Cao army invaded the city with a sea of people tactics, the consequences are unimaginable.
