NO.580 Zhongda saves Xuzhou, Jia Xu wants to slaughter the city

There are priorities, Zhou Yu also knows that this is not the time to remember the past, now Jia Xu and the tiger and leopard ride to Chenliu, Cao Jun is not like before, the turtle retreats in the city, the tiger and leopard ride back and forth like the wind, in terms of its individual combat ability, even stronger than the Xiliang iron cavalry, resulting in now Pang Tong and Zhou Yu no longer dare to send light cavalry to gallop across the country, harassing the surrounding counties of Chenliu.

At the same time, the morale of the Cao army is gradually recovering, if Guo Jia alone against Pang Tong, Zhou Yu is still a little difficult, now Jia Xu is coming, this duo is the only way for the Cao army to be undefeated for a long time, and now the Cao army is superior to Jing Xiang regardless of military strength or strategists, only the bravery of the generals in the army is inferior to Jing Xiang.

However, the battle between the armies, the role played by the brave generals in the confrontation between the two armies can almost be ignored, and even the ordinary soldiers of the Cao army know that it is unwise to fight with the five tigers of Jingxiang.

In this way, Pang Tong and Zhou Yu could only shrink their forces and put on a posture of defending the tiger prison, but now such a change in the battle situation made the two a little worried that Cao Jun would take this opportunity to attack Xu Du, whose defense was relatively weak due to Zhou Yu's departure.

Recovering the old capital, there is still a great temptation for Cao Jun, seeing that the tiger prison army and horses can't avoid the battle, Cao Cao also thought about taking advantage of the situation to seize Xudu, Wancheng and other places, but as soon as such a suggestion was put forward, it was unanimously vetoed by Guo Jia and Jia Xu.

The two also hope to regain the lost territory earlier, but now if they go to fight for the city, the superior forces left by Cao Jun Chen will be dispersed, and Pang Tong and Zhou Yu will not let go of the great opportunity to break through. Since it is difficult to take the city for a long time, it is quite unwise to rashly raise troops.

It's just that for the Jingxiang military horses that are shrinking into the tiger's prison, Guo Jia and Jia Xu don't have a very good way to break through this heroic pass. Pang Tong and Zhou Yu's attitude made it clear that they wanted to drag the war into the harsh winter, so that this time Cao's army retreated without a fight, and the two of them did not want to make people go to the Tiger Prison Pass to provoke repeatedly, but these tricks do not need to be tried, Guo Jiajia will know. This plan will not succeed.

And for Cao Jun. The bad news doesn't stop there.

Jia Xu left Xuzhou, Zhang He was defeated, and he couldn't help but break the city of Xiaopei, and even Yu Ban was captured by Jing Xiang. Wuziliang will go to the second of the five. Cao Cao heard the news. I was annoyed in my heart, why did I compete with that Jing Xiang for a while?

The five tiger generals are high-spirited and dominant, but the five good generals suffer and suffer. Obviously, in the eyes of the world, the five generals in the army selected by Cao Cao are false and do not match the reality.

Jia Xu came from afar this time, although all parts of Yanzhou were solid, but Xuzhou had to endure hardships. Although Zhang He is a general in the army, his strategy for commanding troops is superior, but when he meets an opponent like Zhuge Liang, no one is optimistic that he will be able to compete with Jing Xiang for a long time.

And there are still battlefield generals such as Guan Yu and Wei Yan in Jingxiang's army, and Cao Jun in Xuzhou has no martial arts, all of them are inferior to Jingxiang too much, and the only advantage that can be relied on is that because Jia Xu came to Chen Liu and took away more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, it became invisible.

Originally, Cao Cao was happy for a few days, but now that he learned that the situation in Xuzhou under his command was critical, Cao Cao was no longer calm, and urgently summoned Jia Xu, Guo Jia, Sima Yi and other advisers to come.

Cao Cao knew that Jia Xu and Guo Jia were the foundation of the fight against the tiger's soldiers, so now that the two were together, they could not be separated, so he could only order Sima Yi to go to Xuzhou and work with Cheng Yu to help Zhang He calculate to fight against the Jingxiang Wolong.

Sima Yi was calculated by Zhou Yu before, and his malaise has not disappeared, Sima Yi originally thought that his wisdom had been able to compete with Guo Jia and Jia Xu under the command of the prime minister, but now, Sima Yi knew that he was still a little immature above the battle array.

"Zhongda, are you willing to go to Xuzhou and share your worries for Cao?"

Cao Cao saw that Sima Yi had no consciousness of taking the initiative to ask for battle, frowned slightly, and said to Sima Yi.

Sima Yi hesitated for a while, and only came back to his senses after a while, sighed lightly, and bowed to Cao Cao: "Yi is naturally willing to share his worries for the prime minister, but it's just ...... Yi didn't dare to guarantee that if he went to Xuzhou, he would be able to retreat from the enemy in one fell swoop. ”

Seeing that Sima Yi was no longer as high-spirited as before, Guo Jia sighed and said to Sima Yi: "Zhong Da should be more confident, and when he competes with Zhou Lang, it is difficult for Jia and Wenhe to win a hundred battles, and a small defeat is nothing, what is it?" And victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, and everyone here and even the prime minister have a time of defeat. ”

When Sima Yi heard this, his eyes recovered a lot of brilliance, Jia Xu secretly praised in his heart when he saw this, and said with a smile: "What Feng Xiao said is very true, besides, if Zhongda goes to Xuzhou, it will be two enemies and one, although Zhongde's plan is inferior to Zhongda, but it has been on the battlefield for a long time and has rich experience. ”

Sima Yi's heart was moved by such persuasion from the two, and after thinking for a while, Sima Yi bowed to Cao Cao and said: "Since the prime minister has an order, Yi will go to Xuzhou and his party, and if he does not expel the Jingxiang army and horses from Xuzhou, he will not return!" ”

This person can afford to take it and put it down!

Cao Cao saw Sima Yi receiving the order, and nodded again and again.

Now although Cao Cao still doesn't like Sima Yi's face, but he gradually pitied his talent, Sima Yi's defeat of Zhou Yu, which Cao Cao also knows in detail, when the two armies are fighting, Sima Yi's judgment is still extremely astute, if he is a little slow, now he and Zhang Liao are afraid that they will not be able to come back.

Sima Yi took the order and left, and only Cao Cao, Guo Jia, and Jia Xu were left in the hall.

Sima Yi went to Xuzhou, even if it could not be decided in a battle, at least it could curb the aggressive momentum of Jingxiang's army and horses, but the tiger prison was dangerous, but it was like an unavoidable problem, which deeply troubled Chen Liucao's army.

Cao Cao left the two behind, Guo Jia and Jia Xu naturally knew the prime minister's intentions, and after a long silence, Jia Xu's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he said to the prime minister: "I have a plan." ”

Cao Cao and Guo Jia were all overjoyed when they heard Jia Xu's words, Cao Cao was busy cheering up his spirits, and said to Jia Xu: "Wenhe, will the plan be released?" ”

Jia Xu looked solemn and said to Cao Cao: "The prime minister once said that Xu Du is not well guarded, if my army attacks, this city will be broken, before Jia and Fengxiao were worried that they would not be able to defend the city for a long time, but Jia thought about it and felt that after breaking the city, there was no need to defend the city. ”

"If you don't defend the city, what's the use of taking it?" Guo Jia was surprised when he heard this, but he saw Jia Xu and said with a cold smile: "Although Xu Du is the old capital of my Han Dynasty, but at this time it belongs to Jingxiang, and its people are also Jingxiang people. There were many dead people, Jia didn't believe in Pang Tong, Zhou Yu was still indifferent, and cowered in the tiger prison! (To be continued......)
