Xudu Luoyang was besieged, and Cao Cao was shocked when he learned the battle report from the front.

Cao Cao never thought that this time he sent Guo Jia and Xiahou brothers to Xudu, the battle situation would be like this, staring at Cao Ren's handwritten letter from Chen, Cao Cao glanced at the ministers in the hall gloomily, was silent for a long time, and slowly said: "Do you have a countermeasure to relieve Cao's current siege?" ”

The courtiers were so silent that they didn't dare to deal with it, and after a long time, Jia Xu stepped forward and said to Cao Cao: "Fengxiao must be saved!" ”

Hearing this, Cao Cao nodded slightly.

In fact, the war has developed to the current situation, Cao Cao blamed himself in his heart, knowing that Jing Xiang was powerful, but he still couldn't withstand Guo Jia's persuasion that day, and sent him to the dangerous place, and now if he does not send troops to rescue, Xu Du is in danger, once the army is defeated and defeated, Guo Jia will not be spared, although Guo Jia has a deep friendship with the Pang Shanmin, but Cao Cao does not think that Pang Shanmin will let Guo Jia's life go.

Competing for hegemony in the world, where can we tolerate brotherly righteousness and children's affection?

Since Chen Liu's army, Guo Jia voted for Cao Cao, all along, no matter what kind of predicament Cao Cao faced, as long as Guo Jia was there, he could always turn the danger into a disaster, even if the battle of Guandu in the past, Cao Cao could make up his mind to block Yuan Shao's male soldiers, and then defeated the strong with the weak, dominating the Central Plains, which benefited from Guo Jia, Erxun's repeated design.

In Cao Cao's heart, even if he is a general of his clan, he can't compare to Guo Jia in the slightest, and now that Guo Jia is under siege, how can Cao Cao not fight to save him?

Just thinking that the battle situation on the front line was suddenly difficult to change, Cao Cao was anxious, and muttered: "If I knew this, Cao would be the general Xu Du." Luoyang will give Jingxiang a hand, and he will definitely not let Fengxiao go to danger......"

Cao Cao's babbling words made the ministers under the hall all change, in the eyes of the ministers, now the war Jingxiang, the situation under Cao Cao's rule is not thorough, the current situation is much better than when the official crosses, once so disadvantaged, Cao Cao can still fight, with the weak to defeat the strong, now only two cities are besieged. The prime minister was so disheartened.

Cao Cao was still immersed in reverie. Only a moment later, he heard Xun Yu in the hall persuade him: "Why did the prime minister say this? Since the prime minister decided to save Fengxiao, he should not be so decadent, if Fengxiao sees the prime minister like this. It must be sad. ”

Cao Cao heard Xun Yu's words. Suddenly wake up. Reluctantly lifted his spirits, he said to the ministers under the court: "I want to order the Hebei military horses and conquer Xudu in person." Relieve the siege of filial piety! ”

Cao Cao said, the ministers were stunned, and some courtiers immediately persuaded: "How can the prime minister get involved in danger?" ”

"Feng Xiao can ignore his safety, why not Cao? Cao Hong, Cao Xiu and the two listened to the order, Cao gave you three days to mobilize the Hebei military horses, and called Man Pet, to prepare the war ship used to cross the river, Cao not only wanted to rescue Fengxiao this time, but also to take the lost Wancheng before! ”

Cao Cao said, the ministers were in an uproar, Xun Yu heard this, and he couldn't be in a hurry, Cao Cao looked at Xun Yu and said to Xun Yu: "If you don't want to persuade again, Cao Mou's mind has been decided!" ”

"Prime Minister!" When Xun Yu heard this, he persuaded in a deep voice: "Hebei has been in war for many years before, and now it has only been recuperating for more than three years, how can it withstand such a dispatch from the prime minister?" If the prime minister knows that the prime minister is bent on going his own way, just to save him, it will be to recapture Wancheng, and Fengxiao will blame himself! ”

Cao Cao frowned when he heard this: "As long as you save Fengxiao, him and complain!" ”

After that, Cao Cao looked at Jia Xu and said to Jia Xu: "Wenhe is the military advisor of the army, and Cao Moudao will dominate the army!" ”

Jia Xu heard Cao Cao's words, did not express his position, thought for a long time, Jia Xu said to Cao Cao: "Cheng is quite thinking twice, the prime minister must know, in addition to saving Fengxiao, we should also strictly guard against Jiangdong, if the prime minister will use all the troops and horses under his command to Xu Du, Luoyang, then Jiangdong Zhou Lang will benefit from it!" ”

"Even if you lose Hefei and Shouchun, you must recapture Wancheng and rescue Fengxiao!" Cao Cao waved his hand when he heard this: "Wen He should know, the Jiangdong army and horse water battles are sharp, but foot battles are commonplace, Cao Mou let him take advantage of it for a while, and in the future, he must always settle accounts with him!" ”

Cao Cao was resolute, Jia Xu knew that it was useless to persuade again, so he set his eyes on Xun Yu, Xun Yu nodded slightly, and said to Cao Cao: "Since the prime minister has a plan, we should support it...... There is Wenhe who goes out with the prime minister, and Yu can rest assured that after the army goes out, everything in the rear will be worried about the prime minister! ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he glanced at Xun Yu approvingly, and said to Xun Yu: "If you have Wen to sit in Yecheng, Cao will naturally feel at ease." ”

Seeing that above the court, there was no voice of opposition, Cao Cao ordered the generals of the army to mobilize soldiers and horses, and ordered to cross the river quickly, and go to the Central Plains to take a walk Cao Cao personally led the Hebei Xiongshi, wanting to ask for Jing Xiang, which has boosted the morale of the states and counties in the Central Plains, but in a few days, Jing Xiang and the two princes of Jiangdong all learned that Cao Cao raised troops in a big way.

Lujiang Zhou Yu has been overjoyed in recent days, and the development of the situation has unconsciously become more and more favorable to Jiangdong, Zhou Yu faintly feels in his heart that the day of Jiangdong's rise seems to have gradually arrived.

In the teaching field outside Lujiang City, all Jiangdong military horses have stepped up their training, wanting to seize Hefei, Shouchun and other places.

Cao Cao's move has been decided, in this way, Hefei Zhang Liao is afraid that it is difficult to expect Hebei reinforcements, Jingxiang siege Luoyang, more than 100,000 elites in Xu Du are not decorations, Cao Cao wants to win quickly, there will be no time to take care of him, Zhou Yu thought that as long as Cao Cao crossed the river, the day of the army against Jingxiang was the time when Jiangdong invaded Hefei.

However, in a few days, Pang Shanmin, who was far away in Changsha, also heard that Cao Cao wanted to conquer in person above the Yecheng court.

Pang Shanmin didn't think much about it, he left Changsha at the moment, went to Xiangyang and his line, above the court, Pang Shanmin and the ministers met, and saw the ministers on their faces, there were many frightened colors.

Cao Jun is here, the arrogance is monstrous, its plan is not as before to seize a city and a place, but to repel all the military horses of Jingxiang, once Wolong, the phoenix is defeated by Cao Cao's army, not to mention the new Wancheng, I am afraid that the land north of the Jingxiang River is all burning beacon fire.

Above the court, the family took the lead and couldn't sit still, and wanted to persuade Pang Shanmin to summon Wolong, and the two of them returned, so that Cao Cao had no excuse to use soldiers Jing Xiang, but the patriarchs of the various generations found that today, Xiangyang Erkuai stood firmly on Pang Shanmin's side, Kuai Yue stood in the hall, and said to Pang Shanmin before everyone: "Cao Cao is here, Tang Hou should give him a head-on attack, although Kong Ming, Shiyuan's army went out, but I Jingxiang can call a lot of soldiers and horses, there are still a lot, if Cao's army is strong, Tang Hou can also order people to go to Xichuan line, Dispatch troops! ”

Pang Shanmin and Kuai Yue glanced at each other, and Chong Kuai Yue, who understood in understanding, nodded, and some of the patriarchs of the various generations still wanted to persuade Pang Shanmin to change their minds, but they suddenly found that Kuai Liang glared at them angrily, and they didn't dare to say more.

Pang Shanmin secretly said in his heart, it seems that he can still rely on Erkuai and control the Jingxiang family, thinking for a while, Pang Shanmin smiled at the ministers: "What Mr. Yidu said, very much in line with Pang Mou's mind, three years ago, Cao Cao invaded Runan in a big way, and was driven back by Pang Mou, forcing him to move the capital. ”

Pang Shanmin's words made the heads of the families in the hall speechless, but the generals of the court and the central government were firm in Pang Shanmin's fighting intentions, and applauded one after another, Gan Ning smiled proudly: "Please also ask the Lord to be willing to go out on a certain way, as for the navy, it can be temporarily handed over to General Su Fei to be in charge, since the lord has made up his mind, why ask for the opinions of these fools?" It is a shame to be a minister in the same hall as him! ”

In a word, he offended all the lords and family heads above the court, but Gan Ning was not afraid in the face of that angry gaze, and at that moment someone knelt down at the bottom of the steps, begging Pang Shanmin to punish Gan Ning and roar at the court.

Pang Shanmin saw Fu Xun and Han Song hurriedly bowed, but before they could speak, they heard Gan Ning laugh loudly: "You are selfish and short-sighted, and your lord's ambition to win the Central Plains, how can you be affected by you?" Xiangyang Fu family, Yiyang Han family...... Two heads of the family, you two families will go to Jiangdong in the future, be careful, Gan's navy found today that there are a lot of new bandits on the river! ”

When Fu Xun heard Gan Ning's words, he almost wanted to vomit blood, pointed at Gan Ning, and couldn't speak for a long time.

Since Gan Ning was in charge of the Jingxiang Water Army, there have been no bandits on the river, Gan Ning's threatening words, didn't he clearly inform Fu Xun that he was the water bandit on the river? But then again, before this Gan Ning became an official, he was also a professional who made a great reputation, and such a threat could naturally cut off the Fu family's wealth.

In just an instant, Fu Xun suddenly woke up, restrained his anger, and said to Pang Shanmin: "General Xingba is a misunderstanding, lord, my Fu family is the main battle!" ”

"The Han family is also willing to contribute to the army of the lord!" Seeing this, Han Song dared to bargain again, and hurriedly echoed: "The subordinates' family has little wealth, and now I know that the lord wants to conquer the Central Plains, and the subordinates are willing to sacrifice thousands of sets of clothes......

"It's kind of interesting." Gan Ning snorted coldly, and didn't say more, Pang Shanmin didn't dare to say much when he saw that the families under the hall were all tossed by Erkui and Gan Ning, and couldn't help but sigh lightly, and said to the ministers: "You wait for many ministers, but there is no Xingba to see through, if I Jingxiang defeats Cao Cao, and then I get Luoyang, Xudu Zhujun, how can I get the benefits of your family in the future?" Pang Mou has made up his mind, after my army is launched, I hope you will think about it, how to be optimistic about this Jingxiang foundation for Pang, Pang Mou doesn't want to see that when you leave, you will drag my army back! ”

Pang Shanmin said, a touch of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and Kuai Liang hurriedly said when he saw this: "The lord can rest assured, after the army goes out, the counties of Jingxiang will only become more and more prosperous, Kuai can be a head guarantee, and the Jingxiang family will urge the lord to achieve a great cause!" ”

Pang Shanmin saw that this beating was quite effective, so he simply stopped worrying with the Jingxiang family, slowly looked at the generals under the steps, thought for a moment and said: "This expedition, General Zhongye stayed in Xiangyang, Xingba, Pang wants to order you to be the vanguard and command the front army of the army, such a heavy task, can Xingba dare to respond?" ”

"Why don't you dare!" When Gan Ning heard this, he laughed loudly: "Mountain people, we have been friends for many years, you should always rest assured of Gan's ability!" (To be continued......)
