Chapter 555: Stimulate Liu Biao
Chen Hong followed the soldiers and horses of Lu Xiangchuan and entered Zhengyang City, it was so easy to build a city, Chen Hong really didn't expect it.
After entering the city, Ritsukagawa instructed him to purge the remnants of Cao's army. Although Cao Bing surrendered, he must also do a good job in formation. At this moment, the soldiers and horses of Lu Xiangchuan are only responsible for attacking the city and plundering the land, and Chen Hong is behind them to be auxiliary soldiers.
In this matter, there are many secrets in the Kagawa Army, and Chen Hong cannot be allowed to know. The two, their impact on Cao Cao's territory is indeed a very complicated matter. His army, it is okay to fight. However, for a lot of auxiliary work, there needs to be an auxiliary army. to assist them in their completion.
So let Chen Hong's army be their auxiliary. It's still good. This is also a practical need.
As for the soldiers who surrendered to Cao's soldiers, after forming a queue, they could also be their auxiliaries.
This time, Lu Xiangchuan wanted to make a big fuss about him in Cao Cao's Yuzhou, but without the help of auxiliary soldiers, they really couldn't do anything.
And Cao Cao's brigade is now in Luyang, facing Liu Biao's army. Everywhere else, I'm afraid he won't be able to take care of it!
As for them, this time they just want to sweep Cao Cao's territory. Not for the purpose of attacking the city and plundering the land, but only using this as a means to show his might to Cao Cao, and at the same time add to his blockage.
If it can make them disheartened and the chickens and dogs jump, then of course it is the best. Worst of all, they also want Cao Cao to remember him.
And now, when Xinyang and Zhengyang fight, Cao Cao's two fierce generals will be killed and seriously injured, and Cao Cao must already have a deep memory of them.
With Cao Cao's character of retribution, he will definitely take crazy revenge on them later. However, Ritsukagawa is not worried about this at all.
Now, he is not afraid of Cao Cao.
On the one hand, Cao Cao is now in Xinyang, confronting Liu Biao, and he is not so fast. Get out of here.
The two, Ritsu Kagawa now, are in Jingzhou. Cao Cao just wanted to come to him for revenge. He must also enter the territory of Jingzhou.
And in Jingzhou, how could Liu Biao let Cao Cao's army enter easily?
When the time comes, if Cao Cao really comes to him, they will retreat into Jingzhou Jiangxia. And if Cao Cao is coming, they will definitely have to confront Liu Biao's army in Jingzhou. In this way, things are back to square one.
Therefore, Ritsukagawa and the others this time have almost put themselves in a situation where they can attack and retreat. They also pulled Liu Biao into the confrontation between him and Cao Cao.
As for Anyi, Ritsu Kagawa was not worried that Cao Bing would attack him. No matter what others think, they can't see that Anyi has a big deal with the emperor and Ritsu Kagawa.
What is the strategic point of leading a large army to a place like that? The emperor and Ritsu Kagawa, without Anyi, can't they live? If not, then it makes no sense for them to send troops to settle down.
Therefore, Cao Cao will not make a big fight for that barren land. He will definitely keep an eye on Emperor Xian and Ritsu Kagawa now. They now want to know what the hell the emperor is trying to do.
Therefore, Lu Xiangchuan knew that now, as long as he focused on dealing with Cao Cao, he didn't need to be distracted about the rest.
"General Chen, please send a few small soldiers to Luyang tomorrow and tell your lord that you have broken the invasion of the Cao army in Xinyang, and severely damaged the Cao army, chasing the enemy for 120 miles." Ritsu Kagawa said to Chen Hong.
At this time, Chen Hong and the others had already sent troops to collect the troops in the city, while the men and horses of Lu Xiangchuan were resting in the city. Chen Hongliu straightened them and gathered here in Ritsukagawa, discussing the follow-up matters.
At this time, they laid Zhengyang, and of course the matter will not end like this. This time, Lu Xiangchuan wanted to play a trick on Cao Cao, so his purpose was to attack Cao Cao's other city in Yuzhou again.
As for Cao Cao, Lu Xiangchuan is hopeful that Liu Biao's army can contain him a little tighter. In this way, when he attacked Cao Cao's other forces in Cao Cao's Yuzhou, Cao Cao might not be able to free up his hands to attack him.
In this way, the pressure on him will be much less. And when he subsequently attacked other targets in Cao Cao's Yuzhou, he could also better arrange his troops.
In this way, he wanted Chen Hong to send someone to Luyang and tell Liu Biao the news that they had won a big victory over Cao Cao on Xinyang's side.
In this way, when Liu Biao knew that their Jingzhou soldiers had gained an advantage over Cao Cao on the other side of the battlefield, then their attitude towards the confrontation between Cao Bing and Cao in Luyang would naturally become tougher.
In this case, Cao Cao will be more restrained in Luyang, and then he will be difficult to take care of Lu Xiangchuan's side for a while.
And in this way, the vertical and horizontal of the Yuxiang River on the ground of the Yuzhou boundary can be more presumptuous. He didn't worry that Cao Cao's brigade of soldiers and horses would come to interfere with him.
After all, he only has a few thousand soldiers here. It is okay to bully Cao Cao's scattered troops elsewhere. But if Cao Cao greeted them with a large number of main forces, then they would immediately become very passive.
In order to prevent the emergence of this phenomenon, of course Ritsu Kagawa had to find a way to let Liu Biao do something for him. As long as Liu Biao is a little stronger against Cao Cao when facing Cao Cao, Cao Cao wants to get out calmly, I'm afraid it won't be so easy.
And if Liu Biao knew that their Jingzhou soldiers had already achieved a certain advantage over Cao Bing, wouldn't he think about taking the opportunity to weaken Cao Cao's strength a little?
You must know that Cao Cao has always coveted Liu Biao's Jingzhou. For the sake of Jingzhou's stability, wouldn't Liu Biao think about performing a surgical operation on Cao Cao when possible?
Let Cao Cao weaken, and they Jingzhou will be able to get the stability that Liu Biao needs. So when he saw that the situation might be in their favor, Liu Biao wouldn't let himself be too conservative!
This is a normal idea that ordinary people will have, and Lu Xiangchuan doesn't believe it, when Liu Biao knows that they are here, and they have already won a big victory over Cao Cao, he will be submissive and cautious to Cao Cao.
Lu Xiangchuan even thought about letting Chen Hong divide it several times and send Liu Biao the defeat of Cao Hongdianwei on their side.
In this way, when the good news continued to reach Liu Biao's ears, although the matter was obviously just a victory on the battlefield, Liu Biao would sound as if they had already won many big victories against Cao Bing.
In this way, Liu Biao would think that on their side, they were fighting Cao Bing all the way. In this way, when he faced Cao Bing in Luyang, he would naturally feel full of confidence.
It feels that since they have already won a series of major victories against Cao Bing on another battlefield, why should they show too much weakness to Cao Cao on the battlefield in Luyang?
That's what Ritsukagawa is all about.
Chen Hong listened to Ritsu Kagawa's words, although he didn't know why Ritsu Kagawa asked him to do this, but thinking of his actions here, he really needed to let Liu Biao know, so he said to Ritsu Kagawa: "Yes, General Ritsu."
