Chapter 153: Final Preparations

Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu were defeated and fled, and there were only dozens of cavalry left around them, and they still had 30,000 troops before! Faced with such a sad situation, Zhang Ji looked up to the sky and sighed and burst into tears: "Cao Cao! What a good method! ”

Zhang Xiu gritted his teeth, they were defeated and had nothing to say, Xu Rong took one step after another, and the brilliant strategy of using troops greatly offset their mobility and forced them into their own encirclement, everything was a fair and honest conspiracy, Zhang Xiu and Zhang Ji could foresee their fate, but they couldn't break the situation, so they had to watch their military horses being devoured; Conspiracy is sometimes more frightening than conspiracy, and its impact is far greater than the conspiracy's impact on people; "Uncle! Let's go to Tongguan's Duan Simmer! He still has 50,000 horses there! With the treacherous topography of Tongguan, perhaps... Can you resist Cao Jun!? Zhang Xiu, who was hit, was even a little lacking in confidence at this time; Zhang Ji, who had no opinion, nodded, and the uncle and nephew fled all the way to Tongguan, but the situation in Tongguan made them even more sad, where the city head changed the banner of the king, and it was no longer surnamed Duan, but Cao! In desperation, they had to take a small road and go all the way to Chang'an; …… Dividing line

"Hahaha! Wild's plot has made another contribution! All right! All right! Cao Cao happily took Li Yu's hand outside Tongguan and kept admiring, he didn't expect such a dangerous Tongguan to be broken overnight, which became a strong achievement in Li Yu's merit book; Sin will be simmered! Meet Cao Gong! Duan Xuan fell to the ground, and the Xiliang troops who surrendered on both sides also knelt on the ground; Come on, come on! Get up! General Duan understands righteousness! I can abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and welcome your arrival! Cao Cao happily picked up Duan Xuan and praised Duan Xuan a few words; Naturally, the monarchs and ministers had to say a few words when they saw each other, and it took an hour to walk from outside the city to the city! After the verbosity, it is time for them to talk about important things, and it is inevitable to march into Chang'an after clearing the obstacles; "Zhang Yang is a die-hard member of the royalist party, and this time he has Lu Bu to help, and he is not much worse than us in terms of troops! It is not easy for us to welcome the Son of Heaven to Yanzhou, and before marching into Chang'an, we must consider the possible war with Li Dao and Guo Yan after defeating him! Cao Cao half-leaned over and stretched out his finger and said with a serious face; And what about Maten? Why didn't the father think about him? Teacher? ", Cao Ang behind Li Yu asked in a low voice; Compared to the land of the Central Plains, Xiliang is bitter and cold, and the Son of Heaven will not choose to go there anyway, and Ma Teng and Han Sui do not have the courage to hijack the Son of Heaven to go to Xiliang, so our opponent is mainly Zhang Yang! Emperor Han was reluctant to go to Xiliang, which also contained political factors, the so-called royal industry is not partial, it is exactly so! ", Li Yu explained to Cao Ang in a whisper; Oh! That's it! Cao Ang nodded thoughtfully; In my opinion - a big war is inevitable! The dead are speechless, and the loser is silent! Guo Jia stood up and said loudly; Oh? So what is the high opinion of Fengxiao? What should we do? What's the key? Cao Cao asked with interest; Guo Jia shook the feather fan lightly and smiled slightly: "The important thing here is whose side the Son of Heaven is on, if the Son of Heaven is on our side, we can unite with Ma Teng and Han Sui to defeat Zhang Yang!" If the Son of Heaven does not stand on our side, we will face an alliance of Zhang Yang, Ma Teng, and Han Sui! Maybe Ma Teng and Han Sui didn't mean to welcome the Son of Heaven to Xiliang, but Zhang Yang would definitely not let the Son of Heaven go with us easily! ”

"What Feng Xiao said is extremely true! Therefore, it is recommended to send someone to send a letter to contact the ministers in Chang'an City, according to the preferences of each minister, and then make promises and bribes! Just win their support, plus our advantages; The hope that the Son of Heaven will be on our side is much greater; Xun Yu and Xun Gongda, who have always cherished words like gold, came to a tirade;" Don't worry about this, I've already sent someone! Li Yu smiled and said indifferently, attracting everyone's attention; Isn't it...? Xiahou Yuan pointed at Li Yu in surprise, with an incredible expression, Li Yu nodded, Xiahou Yuan: "Mr. is really a god!" ”

"Genius?" , Cao Cao looked at Xiahou Yuan and asked with a puzzled look; "My lord! Long before we captured Tongguan City, Mr. wrote several letters and sent them to Chang'an! ", Xiahou Yuan said;" Call! Everyone exclaimed, Li Huaide! It's very human!

Maybe the generals were just amazed at Li Yu's long-term thinking, and Guo Jia, Xun You, and Liu Ye, who were engaged in the same profession as Li Yu, were about to say that Yali was very big, Nima! With this kind of colleague, the credit in the future will not be robbed by him!

"Since Huaide has thought of this a long time ago, we don't have to worry, but I still have a doubt, that is, our food and grass supply, although we are now attacking Chang'an City like a bamboo, but our battle line is too long, if the supply is not available, we will be forced to withdraw when the time comes, and our previous efforts will be wasted!" Guo Jia calmed down his mood and raised a new question, he is very good at capturing the details of the problem, finding out some important issues that everyone ignores, so as to give his own people a wake-up; Cao Jun's supply of grain and grass all came from the hands of Zang Hong, who was responsible for supplying grain and grass, and Wei Hong escorted him; It is worth mentioning that now Wei Hong has contributed all his wealth to his career, and at this time, he is also a poor man like Li Yu and others!

All of Wei Hong's family wealth, plus all the family wealth of Cao Song's old man, exchanged more than 4 million stones of grain and grass from Shuzhong and Jingzhou, which greatly alleviated the food problem that had always plagued Yanzhou; "Hmmm! This is indeed a problem that cannot be ignored, and it is my dereliction of duty! Xu Rong stepped forward to ask for guilt, as the military director of this operation, he has an unshirkable responsibility for any mistake in anything;" Ha ha! No need to blame yourself! Liangmeng! Now what we need to do is not to hold accountable, but to solve the problem! You are the head of the army, tell me your solution! Cao Cao said with a smile; Chen Liu, Hongnong, Tongguan! These three places are connected into a line, as the main route for transporting grain, each place is stationed with enough military horses to ensure the safe hoarding of grain, and every time the grain is transported, there must be a skilled person to escort it, to prevent thieves from taking advantage of the opportunity to attack! Xu Rong thought for a while; Well! Not bad! You can arrange it! Cao Cao snorted, temporarily gave up the control of military power, made him look very comfortable, just need to control the overall situation, don't worry too much about anything, good feeling!

"The journey from Chen to Hongnong has been escorted by Wei Hong and Wei Wangcai, this does not need to be changed, the garrison of Hongnong City will be sent by General Wu Anguo! The journey from Hongnong to Tongguan was escorted by Cao Hong and Cao Zilian! Tongguan is garrisoned by General Duan Xuan, and the transportation of grain and grass from Tongguan to Chang'an will be completed by General Caiyang and General Li Dian! What are the objections? Xu Rong asked; Promise! Several of the people whose names were called clenched their fists in response to show their obedience; After destroying Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu in World War I, Xu Rong's prestige suddenly rose by more than one grade - ability! Always be the foundation of a person's foothold!

After a day of rectification, all the generals assigned to the task led the army and set off, and the main force attacking Chang'an also began to move... Huang Zhong is the main, Wei Yan is the auxiliary, the two lead 5,000 as the pioneer, Zhang Yan leads the 5,000 army as the commander of the rear army, Hua Xiongge leads the 5,000 as the left wing, Xiahou Yuan leads 5,000 as the right wing, the Chinese army is guarded by Cao Cao himself, Xu Rong commands, Li Yu, Guo Jia, Xun You, Liu Ye and others follow the army, all the way to Chang'an; Zhang Yang, Lu Bu, Ma Teng, and Han Sui also got the news... The tripartite alliance is about to begin...
