Just after Zhao Fei and Cao Cao reached a consensus, Cao Jun's huge war machine quickly began to operate. The news of Cao's army's preparations had reached the three armies, but apparently no one from the outside world knew about it.

In the eyes of outsiders, Cao Jun's actions are no different from the past. Cao Jun should still train and train, and he should rest and rest. In the eyes of outsiders, Cao Jun obviously did not have any intention of fighting. After all, it has always been like this since Cao Jun was stationed in the army.

After deciding to go to Jingzhou, Zhao Fei could only reluctantly bid farewell to his wife and children and went to the garrison of Xiahoudun's army. Since he decided to personally send troops to recruit Liu Bei, Zhao Fei would not deal with it. For Liu Bei, it is best to destroy it himself.

The station of Xiahoudun's legion, when Xiahoudun learned that Zhao Fei was already on his way, he obviously showed a trace of helpless bitterness. Obviously, Xiahoudun didn't really want Zhao Fei to come. First, he was jealous of Zhao Fei, and second, with Zhao Fei, he would have to tie his hands.

Although Zhao Fei is very good at commanding troops, Xiahoudun is also an assertive person. When two assertive people meet together, they will naturally collide a little, but the problem is that they obviously can't collide with Zhao Fei. Thinking back to the time when he copied the book by himself, Xia Houdun felt that his hands were trembling.

And there is another thing that makes Xiahoudun feel cold on his scalp, he didn't bother Zhao Fei a while ago. Xiahoudun knew that he had already annoyed Zhao Fei. Now that Zhao Fei is here in person, the purpose is obviously obvious, that is, to seek revenge on himself.

But did Xiahoudun dare to refuse Zhao Fei's kindness, obviously, he had no way to refuse Zhao Fei's kindness. It can be said that Zhao Fei personally came to help him, which is something that he can't ask for. If it was someone else, he would obviously be very happy, but Xiahoudun couldn't be happy.

No matter what Xiahoudun thought, Zhao Fei had already set off secretly. Cao Jun's expedition is obviously still a secret, so Zhao Fei's whereabouts naturally need to be kept secret. After all, Zhao Fei was an important minister in Cao's army, and his every move was naturally closely watched by other forces.

Fortunately, Zhao Fei used to be in-depth and simple, so it was obviously still a little difficult to find out Zhao Fei's movements. It is precisely for this reason that Zhao Fei was able to quietly leave Xuchang City without being noticed by others.

The reason why Zhao Fei did this was to hide people's eyes. Before setting out on the expedition, Zhao Fei had already decided to be cautious in everything. I have made so many layouts before, isn't it just to be able to send troops unconsciously? This time, the emphasis is on the speed of the soldiers. Under the situation that Liu Beijun of Xinye was unaware, the army of Cao Jun would come to the city, so that Liu Bei would not have any time to react.

Only in this way could Zhao Fei be able to surround Liu Bei without the slightest preparation. Only in this way can Zhao Fei stop Liu Bei's attempt to harm the people of Xinye. Liu Bei, you have to wait for me honestly! Zhao Fei thought to himself in his heart.

After a period of hurrying, Zhao Fei finally rushed to the residence of Xiahoudun Group and met Xiahoudun in person.

When Zhao Fei saw Xiahoudun for the first time, Zhao Fei suddenly showed a smile. Not for anything else, it was because Zhao Fei saw two big dark circles on Xiahoudun's face. Through these two dark circles under his eyes, Zhao Fei could know that these days, Xiahou was obviously not sleeping well.

Zhao Fei stepped to Xiahoudun's side, staring at Xiahoudun in front of him, Zhao Fei asked in a deep voice: "Yuan Rang, what's wrong with you, don't you have a good rest, why is your face so sleepy, and your expression is so sluggish!" As he spoke, Zhao Fei's smile became stronger and stronger.

When Xiahoudun heard Zhao Fei's words of inquiry, he immediately showed a bitter smile. He smiled, and then lifted his spirit and said: "Let Lord Taiwei be careful, I have been concerned about the war these days, and I really haven't rested well!" Speaking of this, Xiahoudun looked very helpless.

Why didn't he sleep well, it wasn't because Zhao Fei came. Xiahoudun was very worried about Zhao Feiqiu's accounting, and let himself copy the military book, so he has been working hard for this in the past few days. Under such a premise, how could Xiahoudun sleep well.

Zhao Fei naturally knew Xiahoudun's careful thoughts, he smiled slightly, and then said in a deep voice: "Yuan Rang is the commander of the three armies, but you have to pay attention to your body." If you fall, who will command the officers and men of these three armies? Although the war is important, the body is even more important! ”

Xiahoudun nodded awkwardly, in fact, he was quite helpless in his heart. If he fell, he would naturally have Zhao Fei, the captain, on top. You must know that Zhao Fei's position is much higher than himself. Although he has real power, Zhao Fei, the Tai Lieutenant, has more real power than his position.

Looking at Xiahoudun in front of him, Zhao Fei smiled slightly. "Okay, I don't know what you're thinking, take a good rest, I'll take a look around."

Xiahoudun listened to Zhao Fei's words and scratched the back of his head in embarrassment. To be honest, before Zhao Fei came, Xiahoudun was a little worried. Although Zhao Fei couldn't do anything with himself, Xiahoudun said that he was powerless to deal with Zhao Fei's endless tricks.

But now that Zhao Fei has arrived, Xiahoudun's worry has obviously disappeared. After all, Zhao Feiren has already arrived, and it is useless to worry about himself. And looking at Zhao Fei's expression, it was obvious that he had no intention of cleaning himself up, so Xiahoudun didn't need to worry so much anymore.

After Xiahoudun left, Zhao Fei, accompanied by Xiahoudun's adjutant general, inspected some of the soldiers of Xiahoudun's group. Looking at the soldiers who were in full condition, Zhao Fei nodded slightly, Xiahoudun is really a rare genius who can manage the soldiers under his command so well.

For Xiahoudun, Zhao Fei still admires it very much. Among the many generals of Cao's army, Xiahoudun was obviously the most trusted general by Cao Cao. This is not only because Xiahoudun and Cao Cao are clan relatives, but also because Xiahoudun himself has the ability and is unrivaled in his loyalty to Cao Weizhi.

There are many relatives in the Cao family, but there are also many people who have problems. Many Cao clan relatives can lead troops to fight, but they also have their own shortcomings and shortcomings. And Xiahoudun is obviously like a perfect person, except for being quite strong and unpersuading, Xiahoudun has no fatal weakness.

Moreover, Xiahoudun was strict in governing the army, although he was in a high position, he was frugal by nature, and he was indifferent all his life, and he would share his subordinates with excess wealth. In the face of such a general, how could the soldiers under his command not fight hard.

Zhao Fei rested for a day at the station of the Xiahoudun group, and then he ordered Xiahoudun to select 10,000 soldiers and prepare to quietly attack Liu Bei stationed in Xinye. Zhao Fei came here for this, so he naturally decided to personally lead the troops.

For this request, Xiahoudun was obviously a little hesitant. It was nothing for Zhao Fei to send troops in person, but Zhao Fei did not let himself go with him. However, what Zhao Fei said was also right, he wanted to lead the three armies, and tens of thousands of soldiers were waiting for him, so it was not appropriate to act rashly.

However, let Zhao Fei go alone, Xiahoudun was obviously a little worried. After all, Zhao Fei's physique is so weak, if there is really any problem with him, then he will not have the face to see the prime minister.

But Zhao Fei is now iron-hearted, and letting Xiahoudun stay and take a look at the overall situation is the most important thing. After all, the capture of Jingzhou was a major event, and Liu Bei, who was stationed in Xinye, was obviously not a big enemy.

Under Zhao Fei's several analyses and persuasions, Xiahoudun finally gave up the idea of attacking with Zhao Fei. In his opinion, with 10,000 elite soldiers under his command, and the hundreds of soldiers in Zhao Fei's personal defense of the Huben camp, there is obviously no problem in keeping Zhao Fei safe. After all, for his own soldiers, Xiahoudun can still be trusted. Liu Beijun is definitely not the opponent of his 10,000-strong army.

Zhao Fei led the army to the expedition, although Zhao Fei secretly wanted not to make a noise in his heart, but the more than 10,000 soldiers obviously had no way to hide all of them. Even though Cao Jun went out day and night, he still did not escape the moment set by Liu Beijun.

This is also a matter of no choice, Xiahoudun's tens of thousands of troops put a lot of pressure on Liu Bei, because he didn't know when Cao's army would send troops, so he ordered someone to closely monitor Xiahoudun's tens of thousands of troops. As long as there is a stir, Liu Bei can receive the news as soon as possible.

Although Zhao Fei's 10,000-strong army was well concealed, compared to 10,000 people, no matter how careful he was, he would show his feet. Zhao Fei obviously expected this, but it still needs to be hidden, after all, there is still luck in it.

Moreover, Zhao Fei also has a back hand. There were only 5,000 soldiers with him, but he ordered these 5,000 soldiers to pretend to be tens of thousands. As for the remaining 5,000 troops, Zhao Fei ordered Li Dian, a general under Xiahou Dun, to lead them to Xinye day and night.

Knowing that Cao's 10,000-strong army was coming, Liu Bei's heart was obviously a little worried. After waiting for so long, Cao Jun's offensive finally came, but I don't know if I can resist Cao Jun's offensive.

The Cao army raised an army to attack Xinye, which also means that the Cao army is ready to start a total of them. But to Liu Bei's surprise, Cao Jun only took 10,000 soldiers. As for the remaining tens of thousands, they are still hoarded and there is no movement.

Regarding Cao Jun's move, Liu Bei obviously didn't understand what it meant. However, since Cao Jun only came with an army of 10,000, Liu Bei could relax a lot. Although 10,000 people can't get it themselves, they still have thousands of themselves. In this way, he will have the ability to resist the offensive of Cao's army.

The attack of Cao's army made the soldiers under Liu Bei's command look a little cramped for a while. For the attack of the Cao army, Liu Bei naturally wanted to ask Xu Shu's opinion, after all, Xu Shu was his own military advisor!

Listening to Liu Bei's inquiry, Xu Shu frowned, and then asked loudly: "The lord can rest assured, in order to guard against the Cao army, our army is fully prepared, as long as our army responds calmly, defeating the Cao army will not be a problem!" ”
