Chapter 109: Jiang Ziya appears

Cao Ren died, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei gathered an army here, ready to march to Langya County, but just halfway there, they heard a bad news, Langya County was attacked by a full favor for a day, and the city was broken!

Langya was broken and the mission failed, but Guan Yu didn't care, Cao Ren was killed, not to mention that he was just a full favorite, and he had never heard of it! So he led the troops to the city of Langya, ready to recapture the city!

It's a pity that he underestimated Man Chong, although his reputation is not good, but he is a wise general, with good command and impatient intelligence, although he was caught off guard by Guan Yu, but the command sergeant is orderly! With the advantage of quantity, the whole Langya is solid.

So, the two armies were consumed!

Xiapi, Cao Cao and Tao Qian are also offensive and defensive, with the help of Liu Bei, the counselor Chen Deng suggested that an arrow tower be built outside the city, garrisoned by Tai Shi Ci led the army, and Xia Pi formed a horn situation, if the enemy wants to attack Xiapi, Tai Shi Ci led the army to kill, if it is to attack the arrow tower, Liu Bei led the army to kill, so that the whole situation has been deadlocked, until Cao Cao received the news of Liu Biao in Jingzhou.

Originally, Liu Biao listened to the advice of Cao Cao's envoy and was preparing to send troops to Anlu, wolf Gu Runan, and coerce Yuan Shu! It's a pity that although the idea was good, something went wrong.

Wancheng Zhang Xiu led 60,000 troops, went to Bowang, went to Xinye, Kehuyang, and approached Xiangyang!

There is a saying that if you don't die, you won't die, which is Liu Biao's current situation! Although Zhang Ji nominally took refuge in Liu Biao, Liu Biao remembered that he was powerful, and the Xiliang soldiers were elite, Zhang Ji, as an old general of Xiliang, had a high prestige in the army! If he wants to counterattack Jingzhou, the consequences will be unimaginable!

Moreover, Yang Xu and Ma Teng battled, if Zhang Ji sneaked up on Chang'an, its strength would increase greatly, so that Wancheng would no longer be a gateway to the outside world, but would likely become the enemy of Jingzhou! So at Kuai Liang's suggestion, assassinate Zhang Ji! Eliminate all misfortunes in the bud!

The assassination was very successful, Zhang Ji died, Zhang Xiu succeeded to the throne, Liu Biao finally slept for a few days and slept peacefully, in his eyes, Zhang Xiu was a hairy boy, and he couldn't become a climate, but unfortunately he underestimated Zhang Xiu's chief strategist Jia Xu!

Who is Jia Xu? The strategists who can rank in the top five in the Three Kingdoms are not so easy to deal with, within a few days, Jia Xu found out the mastermind behind the assassination of Zhang Ji according to some clues, and the spearhead is directed at Jingzhou!

Zhang Xiu was suddenly angry, personally mentioned 60,000 iron cavalry, sent troops to Jingzhou, Bowang on three days, Xinye on five days, and Huyang on the tenth day, facing Jingzhou across the river! After capturing Huyang, Zhang Xiu ordered people to build warships day and night, preparing to cross the river to attack Xiangyang, Liu Biao was suddenly anxious, and hurriedly mobilized Cai Mao and Zhang Yun's sailors to go down the river to block Zhang Xiu!

Cao Cao frowned when he saw the news from Jingzhou, Liu Xian was unable to protect himself, and he didn't have the energy to restrain Yuan Shu! This is not good news for him! If Yuan Shu really occupies Runan and Xuchang is threatened, then he will be a strong enemy on all sides, but Runan is thousands of miles away, and the only thing he can do now is to take Xuzhou as soon as possible and return to Xuchang! Beware of Yuan Shu!

handed the information in his hand to Guo Jia and others for circulation, but he didn't say anything, just silently pondered.

"Fengxiao, do you have any way to take down Xiapi in half a month?" Cao Cao thought hard for a long time, but he didn't have the slightest countermeasure, so he could only hope that Guo Jia would come up with an idea.

"Lord!" Guo Jia bowed out and said: "My subordinates have a plan to break the next pi, but this plan is too vicious and has an impact on the reputation of the lord!" ”

"Oh?" Cao Cao was overjoyed, "What's the use of reputation, since I entered Xuzhou, every time I go to Xuzhou, I will inevitably slaughter the city, and I don't worry about reputation!" Bong-hyo just say it! ”

"Lord, you can lead the troops to dig the water of the Si River and flood it!" Guo Jia hesitated to say what he thought!

"Lord, if you really want to lead the water of the Si River to irrigate the city, hundreds of thousands of people in the city will all suffer from this catastrophe, and then it will really be a hundred miles of floating corpses!" Xun Yu hurriedly persuaded. "Although the lord slaughtered the city all the way, it is also a small city of tens of thousands of people, if the Sihe River is dug up, the entire Xiapi will be destroyed in one fell swoop, and the lord will inevitably be infamous through the ages!"

Cao Cao glanced at Xun Yu coldly, this person is good at everything, but he attaches too much importance to the Han family, which makes him dislike!

"I have made up my mind, tomorrow Xiahou Yuan will dig up the water of the Si River!"

"Lord!" Xun Yu still wanted to persuade, but was stopped by Cao Cao and said: "Wen Ruo, now that there is no suspense in the war in Xuzhou, I will now order you to go back to Xuchang and strictly guard against Yuan Shu!" ”

Xun Yu was stunned for a moment, and instantly understood what Cao Cao meant, so he had no choice but to take the order to retreat.

"My lord! It has not rained in Xuzhou for many days, and the water level of the Sihe River is not abundant, so if you want to flood the city, I am afraid it will be difficult to work! At this time, Cheng Yu also expressed his considerations!

"Really?" Cao Cao asked again!

"When my subordinates were young, they traveled all over the Central Plains, and they also went to the Sihe River, so I know that the Si River is not big, sometimes the water is dry, the rain is not abundant at the moment, and the water level of the Si River is dropping.

The plan he had just made was vetoed by Cheng Yu, Guo Jia was a little unwilling, and said to Cao Cao: "Lord, isn't the ginger tooth brought back by his subordinates last time calling for wind and rain, why don't you let him try it, just to find out his reality!" ”

Speaking of Jiang Ya, Cao Cao really didn't pay much attention to him, a bad old man, after he arrived under his account, he didn't make an inch, but he drank everywhere all day long, and he just loved to drink, after all, there are many drunkards in this era, but what is even more strange is that this old man not only likes to drink, but also likes to fish! often holding a fishing rod and sitting all morning, Cao Cao was puzzled by this, and at the same time, he also began to doubt his ability to call the wind and rain, after all, he was just boasting about it, and others didn't see it! So I can't help but ignore it.

As soon as Guo Jia reminded him, Cao Cao thought of such a person, and immediately called someone to pass Jiang Ya into the account to discuss the matter, but he listened to the guard's report, and Jiang Ya went fishing in the Sihe River again!

Cao Cao was so angry in his heart, we are beating you to the death here, you are idle, and you go fishing, and suddenly slapped the case, and said angrily: "Go and find me, even if you search the entire Si River, you have to find someone for me!" ”

"Yes," the guard shuddered and ordered, and then went to find someone.

Two hours later, the guards finally brought Jiang Ya here.

"Mr. Jiang is really good Yaxing, I am waiting for the army to attack the city here, Mr. Jiang does not give me advice, but goes to the Sihe River to fish alone!" Cao Cao's face was ugly when he saw Jiang Ya, but he still suppressed the anger in his heart and said calmly.

Jiang Ya smiled and arched his hand: "The old man has this hobby in his life, but it makes the lord laugh, as for Xiapi City, for the lord, it is just a thing in the bag, and sooner or later it will be obtained, Liu Bei, Tao Qian and others, the people who are busy, the current desperate resistance, is just to increase the prestige of the lord, why should the old man add snakes and annoy people!" ”

This sycophant shot made Cao Cao's heart secretly refreshed! But in an instant, he thought of the purpose of looking for Jiang Ya this time.

"Mr. Jiang is too modest, I have long heard that Mr. can call the wind and rain, and now our army intends to dig the Si River, and the water will flood the Pi, but the water volume of the Si River is insufficient, and I hope that Mr. can summon a few days of heavy rain! If successful, this attack on Xuzhou, Mr. will be the first merit! ”

But seeing Jiang Ya shook his head, he said: "Water and fire are ruthless, even if the lord floods Xiapi and occupies Xuzhou, but at the same time, the hundreds of millions of living beings in Xiapi City will also suffer this catastrophe, for the great cause of the lord, such an act is really not a royal way!" ”

Cao Cao's face that had just been slapped by Jiang Ya instantly collapsed, "Then Mr. Jiang is unwilling to contribute?" ”

Jiang Ya smiled lightly, and Yun said lightly: "If you attack the city with strange soldiers, why do you need to dig up the Si River and provoke the anger of the heavens and people!" He arched his hand and said: "Old and talented, when the young man traveled the world, he was favored by strangers, not only learned the art of calling the wind and rain, but also learned the method of ghost fighting and lightning strike!" If the lord wants to capture Xiapi, the old man is willing to attract the thunder of the nine heavens and blast through the city gate of Xiapi! ”
