Chapter 71 swept Jingzhou

Zhang Liao led his army to attack Luoyang, but Guo Jia withdrew his troops and returned to Chang'an. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

In this "decisive battle" between Guo Jia and Cao, the two protagonists seem to coincide, both of them are thunderous and rainy.

The generals under Cao's command were dissatisfied, and the generals under Guo Jia's command were not very willing.

The first battle was successful, they won, and 30,000 enemies were annihilated, but Guo Jia only let Zhang Liao attack Luoyang, and the other troops withdrew to Chang'an with him.

The generals are puzzled, it seems that they should take Luoyang in one go.

After Guo Jia returned to Chang'an, he first summoned Zhang Ji and asked about Ma Chao's situation.

Zhang Ji's reply did not make Guo Jia happy, but instead wrote a harsh letter by hand for Zhang Ji to take to Ma Chao.

There is a limit to tolerance, Guo Jia will only give Ma Chao this chance, and if he does it again next time, he will bear the consequences.

After Zhang Ji withdrew from the room, Fa Zheng walked in, and Guo Jia said to him: "Xiaozhi, pass the order, the soldiers and horses will rest in Chang'an for two months, and then return to Chengdu." ”

Only Zhang Liao's 100,000 soldiers and horses were left in Guanzhong, and resting in Chang'an was to make Cao think that Guo Jia was immortal to Luoyang.

In this way, Guo Jia will definitely not be able to stop Cao from swallowing Jingzhou.

In fact, from the beginning, Guo Jia didn't want to rob Jingzhou before Cao.

Cao led the army to Xuchang and began to rest.

When he was dealing with military affairs, someone hurriedly ran in to report the matter to Cao Yu.

Cao didn't raise his head to let the man speak.

As a result, the man said something that made Cao almost collapse.

Cao Chong, his favorite son now, died of illness!

For the Cao family, one joy and one sorrow.

Fortunately, Cao was promoted again in Xuchang, and after the Duke of Wei, Cao Jin was the king of Wei.

Sadly, Cao's son Cao Chong fell ill and died.

Cao was so sad that he cried for several days, and then ordered people to look around to find out if there was a girl in the wealthy and powerful family who had also died, and used it to give his son a soul.

The grief was so excessive that the whole person was distraught, Cao did not return to Yecheng, stayed in Xuchang, and Chen Qun came to see him and inform him of some things.

Chen Qun is Cao's right-hand man, especially Chen Qun's "housework" for Cao.

Cao wanted to let the recently deceased daughter of Bingyuan's family give Cao Chong a soul, but people were unwilling.

Bing Yuan was a scholar and looked down on Cao.

Chen Qun informed Cao of this incident, thinking that Cao would destroy Bingyuan's family, but Cao just asked Chen Qun to find the next family again, and did not anger Bingyuan.

Chen Qun said goodbye and left, and Cao called him back.

"Changwen, go and ask Sima Yi again. If he is willing to go out, let him go to Yecheng and be a prince and concubine. ”

Now Cao is the king of Wei, and Yecheng is the capital of Wei, which is the vassal state of China, not the world. And after Cao Chong's death, Cao first established a prince at this age, and this prince is the successor to the throne, the crown prince, not the crown prince.

Cao Pi is only in his early twenties, and after Cao Ang's death, Cao has many heirs, and there are only a few who are extraordinary and have some outstanding talents, Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, and Cao Zhang are now in the limelight.

But Cao Zhi and Cao Zhang are young in the end, and they are not yet twenty, so Cao first let Cao Pi be the prince, after all, he is only a crown prince, and it is difficult to say whether he will inherit everything from Cao in the future.

The official position of the prince's concubine, simply put, has no real power over some people of the same age around the prince.

Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang to come out of the mountain after three visits to the thatched house, and Cao also sent people to invite Sima Yi three times.

This time, Sima Yi didn't dare to excuse himself anymore.

Sima Yi knew that if he refused, let alone himself, the entire Sima family would be destroyed.

So Sima Yi obediently went to Yecheng, entered the camp of Cao Wei's group, and got along harmoniously with Cao Pi, which made Cao Pi respect him very much.

After the soldiers and horses finished resting in Xuchang, Cao recently showed a posture that was not depressed, but extremely indifferent.

He summoned Cheng Yu and asked, "How is Jingzhou?" ”

Cheng Yu, who was old and had white hair and couldn't find black silk, frowned and said, "Liu Biao is still sick in bed, and there is no improvement. ”

Cao couldn't wait any longer, Luoyang's side was already in a stalemate, and he was afraid that Guo Jia would find out about his attempt.

With an indifferent face, Cao Shen said: "Order the three armies to attack Xiangyang with me." ”

In mid-July, Cao waved an army of 200,000 to attack Jingzhou!

Going down from Wancheng, the first thing to fight is not Liu Biao, but Liu Bei of Xinye!

Liu Bei's soldiers and horses are only thousands, how can they stop Cao Xiong's 200,000 male soldiers?

Liu Bei led his army to retreat to Fancheng.

Xiangyang was gloomy, and as soon as the news of Cao's personal expedition reached Xiangyang, Liu Biao vomited blood and died after hearing it!

Liu Cong succeeded to the throne and promoted Jingzhou Mu, but the first thing he did as soon as he took office was to hand over a letter of demotion to Cao.

Liu Cong surrendered to Cao without entertaining Liu Bei, which made Liu Bei very passive, and gave up Fancheng in a hurry, Liu Bei's soldiers divided into two routes, one was led by Guan Yu to go to Jiangxia by water, and Liu Biao's eldest son Liu Qi converged, all the way to evacuate from the ground, led by Liu Bei himself, accompanied by Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei, and went to the area of Nanjun.

Liu Bei hurriedly evacuated due to Liu Cong's surrender, but it was also a blessing in disguise, and the soldiers and horses in Jingzhou who were unwilling to surrender to Cao Wei followed Liu Bei, which made Liu Bei's available soldiers and horses grow a lot, and at the same time, the people heard that Cao killed and came to Jingzhou, and many people also voluntarily fled with Liu Bei.

Cao hated Liu Bei to the core, and heard that Liu Bei had fled, so he personally led the tiger and leopard cavalry to chase three hundred miles overnight, and broke Liu Bei's army at Changban Slope in Dangyang.

After the defeat, Liu Bei took the remnants of the defeated army and fled to the edge of the Han River in a hurry, leaving Zhang Fei behind.

Zhang Fei roared on the side of the bridge to retreat Cao Jun, Cao was also a cocoon to bind himself, and Guan Yu drank and talked happily, heard Guan Yu say that Zhang Fei had the ability to take the head of the enemy general in the chaotic army, and ordered someone to embroider Zhang Fei's name in his clothes, and reminded himself to be cautious when he met Zhang Fei, but he did not chase and kill in hesitation, and gave Liu Bei the opportunity to escape to Jiangxia on the edge of the Han River.

Liu Qi and Guan Yu met Liu Bei by the Han River, and let Liu Bei's soldiers and horses get on the boat, while the people who followed Liu Bei stayed on the road from Changbanpo to Jiangling.

Liu Bei, who arrived in Jiangxia, faced Cao Monocru's momentum and fell into despair.

Cao led 200,000 troops into Jingzhou, took over Jingzhou almost bloodlessly, and collected nearly 200,000 Jingzhou troops.

At this moment, if there is no wonder, it will be a dead end.

And at this time, the spectacle happened.

Zhuge Liang stepped forward, went east by boat, and met Wu Hou Sun Quan!

At this time, Sun Quan had already left Jianye and came to the front line of Jiangdong, Chaisang.

Cao swept through Jingzhou, making him restless.

Now that Sun Quan has regretted it, if he had formed an alliance with Guo Jia a few months ago to attack Cao, this situation would not have happened now.

His wishful thinking naturally wanted Cao and Guo Jia to fight to the death, but he didn't expect Guo Jia to fall for Cao's tricks and be pinned down in the north, even if Guo Jia withdrew his troops from Chang'an back to Chengdu at this time, he would definitely not be able to stop Cao from swallowing Jingzhou.

Originally, I was still thinking about whether to entertain Cao and test the other party's intentions.

Jingzhou is already Cao's.

So, it's time to stop, right?

But Sun Quan hadn't written to Cao yet, but Cao wrote a letter to Sun Quan.

After seeing the letter "Imabari has 800,000 water troops, and the general will hunt in Wu", Sun Quan's face was bloodless.

Cao is going to exterminate even his grandson's family!

Fight, if you don't fight, you can't do it!

And in this battle, whether he can protect Jiangdong, Sun Quan has no bottom in his heart, among the civil and military, the two people he trusts the most, Zhou Yu and Lu Su, gave him their opinions respectively.

Zhou Yu is a hero who fights bulls and bravely crowns the three armies, and when he fights, he never delves into the basics of the number of troops, or the probability of winning a war, and the number of troops is not absolute.

Cao has many generals, and his prestige is unmatched in the world, Sun Quan is afraid of Cao, but he is also unwilling to easily give Cao the foundation laid by Sun Ce in the six counties of Jiangdong.

Zhou Yu fought the main battle and refused to surrender to Cao.

He even said to Sun Quan, "The situation is sent to death, and the evil can be welcomed?" ”

People in the world, including Guo Jia, probably won't say that Cao is here to send him to death when facing Cao.

Only Zhou Yu dared to say such contemptuous words against Cao in the context of Cao's arrogance today!

Lu Su also fought the main battle, and when Liu Biao in Jingzhou was seriously ill, he suggested that Sun Quan unite with Liu Bei and put it into practice.

After the three ministers discussed, Sun Quan also made up his mind to oppose Cao to the end!

At the end of the meeting, Lu Su suddenly raised his head and arched his hand at Sun Quan and said: "Lord, the Cao army is powerful, and with the joint efforts of my Jiangdong and Uncle Liu Huang, I am afraid the odds of winning are not high." At this moment, Cao thieves have embezzled Jingzhou, and Yizhou Guo Jia will not turn a blind eye, so why don't you join Guo Jia to capture Cao again? ”

Sun Quan's expression was a little embarrassed, and he said bitterly: "But, a few months ago, Guo Jia sent me a letter and invited me to send troops to attack Cao Thief in the east, but I didn't reply to him, now, will he lend a hand to Jiangdong?" ”

This is where Sun Quan regrets, at that time, even if he replied to a letter to refuse, it was far better than indifference, but at that time, Sun Quan was worried that if he replied to the letter and refused, Guo Jia would not be able to reap the benefits if he did not fight Cao.

Lu Su said with a firm expression: "Lord, this and that." Cao thief now captures Jingzhou and wants to Jiangdong, if Jingzhou and Jiangdong fall into the hands of Cao thief, how can Guo Jia be alone? Sooner or later, he will die! He would not see this clearly, so he was convinced that Guo Jia would send troops to attack Cao, but the joint action of the three families was far higher than the victory of each other, and he was willing to persuade Guo Jia to unite with the lord. ”

Sun Quan thought about it and made sense.

Zhou Yu also agreed.

At this time, Jiangdong will not think about who Jingzhou belongs to, but whether he can protect himself is the top priority.

After receiving Zhuge Liang's arrival, Lu Su made a detour from Jingnan to Yizhou, intending to lobby Guo Jia Group to fight against Cao.
