Chapter 1588: The General Fell for Him

When Cao Shuo arrived, the Yang Bridge had already been breached.

Zhang Fei and Guan Yu led the remnants of the army to flee all the way, but Sima Yi did not order the pursuit, but just waited on the south bank of the bridge.

After crossing the Dangyang Bridge, Cao Shuo was walking forward, and Sima Yi took Lu Bu and others to greet him.

"Childe." He saluted Cao Shuo: "Our army has broken through the Dangyang Bridge, and Liu Bei led the army to disappear. ”

"He went to Xiangyang." Cao Shuo said: "Liu Bei plans to capture Xiangyang and intercept our army there. ”

"Xiangyang is a big city, if he really enters the city, it will indeed be a little troublesome to defeat Jingzhou." Sima Yi asked, "I wonder what Gongzi's plans are?" ”

"Even though he did the deployment, I couldn't do nothing." Cao Shuo said: "What our army has to do is to march as soon as possible and drive Liu Bei away before he gets Xiangyang." ”

Looking at Zhao Yun and Lu Bu, Cao Shuo said: "I have received news that Zilong and General Lu fought bravely to kill the enemy and made great contributions at Changbanpo and Dangyang Bridge respectively, and I have written down this credit." ”

Previously, Lu Bu wanted to attack, but Sima Yi obstructed him in every way, and he was very unhappy in his heart.

In front of Sima Yi, he didn't say much, but thanked Cao Shuo together with Zhao Yun.

The army crossed the Dangyang Bridge and continued to advance.

Lu Bu leaned over to Cao Shuo's side and whispered, "Son, can Sima Zhongda fight?" ”

"Why does General Lu ask that?" Cao Shuo asked him in surprise.

"Before, I was going to lead the soldiers to attack the Dangyang Bridge, and he was obstructing him in all kinds." Lu Bu said: "He first said that the enemy army lined up a formation on the opposite bank, and once our army attacked, the enemy army could shoot countless soldiers as long as they shot arrows. Later, it was said that the Flying Bear Battalion was not a broken camp, and he was not sure that he would be able to break through the enemy army. It was I who forcibly asked for troops, and he reluctantly agreed. No, our army has already come over to see if he has anything to say. ”

"Zhongda has long thought about letting the general cross the bridge." Cao Shuo smiled slightly, and said to Lu Bu: "If he doesn't do this, the soldiers of the Flying Bear Battalion are used to being proud, how can they take the enemy army in their eyes?" You must know that an army that has always been proud is likely to be annihilated on the battlefield by enemy forces that are far inferior to them. ”

Lu Bu was stunned: "Could it be that I was deceived by him?" ”

"What does General Lu think?" Cao Shuo said with a smile: "I'll ask Zhongda when I go back, if that's the case, let him compensate General Lu." ”

"If you don't pay it, forget it." Lu Bu said: "You can't say anything to your face, but you have to use this method, it's really annoying." ”

Cao Shuo was about to speak, when Sima Yi came over.

"Zhongda, General Lu has sued you." Without waiting for Sima Yi to speak, Cao Shuo said, "How did you annoy him?" ”

Of course, Sima Yi knew what was going on.

He clenched his fists and arched at Lu Bu and said: "Forgive me, general, the enemy army is guarding the Dangyang Bridge, if we don't inspire the soldiers, I'm afraid we won't be able to take it until now." I have done something inappropriate, and I ask the general to forgive me. ”

"I'm talking about it." Cao Shuo smiled and said to Lu Bu: "The general has fallen for Zhongda. ”

Lu Bu said with annoyance: "Sima Zhongda is as cunning as a ghost, not only deceiving the enemy army, but also his own family!" ”

As soon as he said this, everyone next to Cao Shuo laughed.

Sima Yi asked Cao Shuo: "After our army wins Jingzhou, what is Gongzi going to do?" ”

"I just want Yangzhou." Cao Shuo said: "Jingzhou is better handed over to my father." ”

"Defeat Xiangyang, do you want to continue to pursue Liu Bei?" Sima Yi asked again.

"No, you don't." Cao Shuo said: "We are stationed in Xiangyang City, waiting for my father to arrive. The pursuit of Liu Bei is too tight, and he will definitely unite with Jiangdong. This crusade against Jingzhou, it seems that we are fighting the Liu family in Jingzhou, but in fact, we have offended Jiangdong together. With our men, it is impossible to break through Jiangdong without armament. ”

"What does Childe mean that we will definitely turn against Jiangdong this time when we go south?" Sima Yi asked.

"Jiangdong is full of talents, and turning against them is not the result I want." Cao Shuo smiled slightly: "But the world has become like this, if we don't take Jiangdong, our Cao family will not be able to dominate the country at any time, and the Han Dynasty will always be in disintegration." The crusade against Jiangdong is only imperative. ”

What Cao Shuo said, of course Sima Yi can understand.

He nodded and said no more.

"In fact, it can be seen from the weapons I brought this time that my real purpose is to take Yangzhou." Cao Shuo said: "Once we cross the Yangtze River, the Jiangdong Sun family will no longer have any natural dangers to rely on. The Cao family has achieved great things, only in the near future. ”

"Childe is right." Pang Tong also said on the side: "In fact, as long as Gongzi takes Yangzhou, he has already occupied the Yellow River and the Yangtze River. In the whole world, no matter where the troops are sent from, there is no so-called natural danger for the child. ”

"All I want is a line." Cao Shuo said: "A line pulled up along the coast. With this line, and with enough people, I will be able to lead a large army to the hinterland in the future, no matter who is my enemy. ”

"Actually, I just think that Gongzi can also leave some military power in Jingzhou." Sima Yi said: "Jingzhou and Yangzhou are too close, and Shouchun is the foundation of the son. If someone tries to disadvantage Gongzi, as long as troops are sent from Jingzhou, it will be difficult for our army to deal with it. ”

"Father won't." Cao Shuo said: "I am now the son of the Cao family, and my father knows very well that I can't turn against him because I am anxious to get more power. ”

"I'm not talking about Cao Gong." Sima Yi said in a low voice.

Looking at Sima Yi, Cao Shuo asked, "What does Zhongda mean?" ”

"Could it be that Gongzi has forgotten what happened to the Yuan family and the Liu Jingsheng family in Jingzhou?" Sima Yi said: "Although the prince is the prince, if he doesn't take the Cao family into his hands for a day, he can't be at ease for a day. It's better to prepare early. ”

Squinting his eyes slightly, Cao Shuo said, "Zhongda is right, I have already installed a lot of fire dances in various places. No matter what happens, I get the news very quickly. ”

"When you get the news, whether you can form a large army in time to counterattack is two different things." Sima Yi said: "It's better to be cautious than Childe. ”

"I think Childe's current arrangement is enough." Xu Shu said on the side: "If Gongzi leaves soldiers and horses in Jingzhou, what will the Cao Guild think?" Although Gongzi has no intention of seizing Cao Gong's power, Cao Gong's suspicious temperament will inevitably cause some trouble. It's better to just leave the fire dance and keep an eye on the situation. ”

Sima Yi and Xu Shu and others had a disagreement, and Cao Shuo said: "These things will be talked about later, and the most important thing at the moment is to calm the world first." I have to wait until the outside things are solved before I can deal with them. ”
