Chapter 588: Multinational Encirclement
The order was conveyed, Zhang Yuan continued to drink, just waiting for the iron bucket array to become one, and it was not too late to clean up Yuan. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Recently, our army has been wantonly attacking the city and building fortifications, but Yuan Shang has not reacted at all, and Yuan Shang is surprisingly quiet when King Zhou doesn't realize it?" Li Si, who had been listening silently, suddenly said.
Zhang Yuan brought the wine glass to his lips and immediately hovered.
Li Dingguo gnawed on the leg of mutton, and said disapprerovitically: "What's so strange about this, Yuan Shang has less than 10,000 soldiers and horses on hand, and he scared us out, how can he have the courage to go out of the city to cause destruction." ”
"No, even if Yuan Shang doesn't have the courage anymore, he should clear the consequences of Fujian being surrounded by us, the bloody examples of Yecheng and Liyang are right in front of him, and it is impossible for him to turn a blind eye." Li Si immediately denied.
Touching the dragon also followed: "Li Si is reasonable, not to mention Yuan Shang, he also has Sima Yi and a wise man like Judge under his command to help, these people can't sit still and don't give Yuan Shang any ideas." ”
Zhang Yuan put down his wine glass, thinking about it, Yuan Shang's ability is not good, but Sima Yi's cunning wolf is by no means a person who eats and waits for death.
"Then what the hell do you think Sima Yi will give Yuan Shang?" Zhang Yuan asked.
Before the words fell, a member of the reprimanded Wen rushed in and sent an urgent piece of information from the direction of Liangzhou.
"Could it be that Ran Min is missing, read it quickly." Zhang Yuan frowned, brushed his hands and shouted.
"Liangzhou made an urgent report, a few days ago, Liu Bei had retreated from the troops who invaded our territory, leaving the general and Lian Zhen to guard Yijing, and led 30,000 Youyoubu cavalry to move to Daijun, intending to come to the lord to rescue Yueyang."
As soon as this information came out, everyone in the big tent was shocked, and Li Dingguo was also taken aback, forgetting to nibble on the leg of mutton in his mouth.
At this moment, another member rushed in.
"Your Great King, Hangu Guan Lanyu General Xingye sent someone to send an urgent report, claiming that Cao Cao withdrew his troops back to Guanzhong overnight, and his main force was going straight to Pubanjin, intending to cross the Chenghe River and kill into the east of the river, clearly wanting to go north to Yuan Shang's sphere of influence and rescue Yuan Shang."
As soon as the second emergency report came out, it was not just as simple as shaking, and there was an uproar in the big tent.
"His grandmother's, what is the matter with Liu Bei and Cao Cao's two old miscellaneous hairs, why don't you spend it with Ran Min and Lan Yu, and suddenly my brain cramps and rushed to save Yuan Shang's little miscellaneous hair." Li Dingguo shouted excitedly and in surprise.
After Zhang Yuan's initial shock, his emotions returned to calm in a blink of an eye, and a sneer appeared on his young face, "The soldiers of the Three Kingdoms gathered in Yueyang to fight a decisive battle with this king, Sima Yi, you are really not idle, you can be regarded as a good plan for Yuan Shang." ”
...
"It seems that the situation has become more obvious, Yuan Shang knew that Yueyang was difficult to hold, so he sent people to Lunu and Hangu Pass in the starry night, and persuaded Li Liu and the others to change their strategy, and each led the main force to come to Yueyang, this Sima Yi's plan, I am afraid that it is not only to save Yueyang, but also to gather the soldiers of the Three Kingdoms and destroy my main force under Yueyang City in one fell swoop."
Li Si's thoughts were extremely keen, and his words broke through the mystery several times, and also said the judgment in Zhang Yuan's heart.
In the big tent, the people were in an uproar again.
Li Dingguo threw the leg of mutton to the ground, patted the case and scolded: "Sima Yi, this dog has a big appetite, and he still wants to destroy our main force of the Great Zhou, can he destroy it!" ”
"That is, if Liu Bei and Cao Cao dare to come, we will destroy them together!"
"This is really a God-given opportunity for our Great Zhou, destroy Liu Bei and Cao Cao, we will take Liangzhou and Guanlong without much effort, unify the north in one go, those barbarians in the south, who is still the opponent of our Great Zhou."
Li Dingguo set off the confidence of the generals, and everyone was full of confidence and pride, as if they did not take Liu Bei and Cao Cao in their eyes.
It's no wonder that over the years, the Great Zhou has won consecutive battles, Cao Cao and Liu Bei were both defeated under Zhang Yuanjunchen, and the big guys have won a lot, so it is inevitable that they will have some contempt for the enemy.
"When Ren Zhong was in the middle of the day, there was a price to pay for despising the enemy, especially the old treacherous enemies like Cao Cao and Liu Bei." Zhang Yuan waved his hand and interrupted the arrogance of the generals.
Zhang Yuan's mind has always remained calm, he is clear, Liu Bei and Cao Cao at this time are no longer what they used to be, and they must not be underestimated.
Let's talk about Liu Bei first, although he only has a county in Liangzhou, but Liangzhou is his hometown, and he has both Yuan Shao's old department and Gongsun Zhan's old department under his command, which can be said to have been supported by all forces in Liangzhou, and has established absolute prestige in Liangzhou in a short period of time.
In terms of troops, although Liu Bei's main mobile force is only 30,000, nearly 20,000 of them are Youyou cavalry, and if used properly, the combat effectiveness can reach 100,000 male soldiers.
Moreover, Liu Bei has Zhao Yun, a cavalry general who is proficient in Gongsun Zhan's white horse righteous fighting style, and the 20,000 cavalry must have been trained by Zhao Yun as a first-class elite iron cavalry in the world, and the combat effectiveness is unimaginably strong.
As for the generals, in addition to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Liu Bei also has Zhao Yun, He Lian and Wen Chou Xiaoyi, in addition to He Lian, the other four generals are all invincible brave, and they are all first-class generals in the world.
In terms of ministers, in addition to Yuan Shang's old ministers, there are also wise men like Zhuge Liang who have traveled through heaven and earth to give advice.
At this time, Liu Bei's territory was not as large as Yuan Shang's sphere of influence, and his soldiers and horses were not as large as Yuan Shang's sphere of influence back then, but he had a super luxurious lineup, and his strength was far better than that year.
Such a Liu Bei, how dare Zhang Yuan underestimate it, otherwise he would not have sent Ran Min and Hua Rong to humble, and then add a luxury lineup like Gao Gong to Lu Nu to resist, and sternly told them that they could only defend, not attack.
Besides, Cao Cao, when he was driven out of the Central Plains, he was indeed a loss of soldiers, his vitality was greatly damaged, and his strength once fell to the point where even Han Sui and Sun Ce were inferior.
However, at this time, Cao Cao's strength has long been restored to the strength when he was in the Central Plains, and he has even surpassed it.
The land of Hanzhong, the land of Guanlong and Liangzhou, has been completely owned by Cao Cao, and the Liangzhou Jianma and the fierce Zhao Di Nan'er are enough for Cao Cao to arm a powerful cavalry.
Moreover, the surrender of the Ma clan made Cao Cao get peerless generals like Ma Chao and Pang De, and the strength of the military general Zhai Di was greatly improved.
As for the strategists, like Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Guo Jia and other strategists, except for Guo Jia, who is the best at self-protection and never takes the initiative to contribute, Guo Jia and Xun Yu are enough to influence the situation in the world.
Thinking that after suffering so much, they no longer dared to despise Zhang Yuancun, and once they became serious, their resourcefulness was still terrifying.
Cao Cao's overall strength is even slightly above Liu Bei.
With Cao Cao's strong strength, if it weren't for the natural danger of Hangu Pass, even if it was a generation commander like Lan Yu, it would be difficult to resist.
