"Bang bang bang", the sound of the horse's hooves sounded in the hazy sky, the gate of Xuchang City had just been opened, and the sound from far and near raised the vigilance of the city guards, however, they did not stop it, but let the fast horse pass

"Military newspaper! Military newspaper! Eight hundred miles expedited! The blood-stained cavalry roared hoarsely, and the throat of the blood-stained cavalry was like sandpaper, rough, stiff and sad; Arrived at the county and Ye county were lost one after another, and Zhang Xiu in the south fought without declaring it!

Since Hongnong's first battle, Zhang Xiu's uncle and nephew have been unlucky, and they have been dragged down by Li Dao and Guo Yan in Chang'an City. Hanzhong has now become Zhang Lu's, and this great god is unwilling to accept them, disgusting them as fierce and violent barbarians; had no choice but to go east, Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu, who were born in Xiliang, knew the fierce battle on that territory, and they could only take refuge in Ma Teng or Han Sui when they went back, but these two families, no matter which one of them, had personal grudges with them; To the east is Jingzhou, Jingzhou is good! Jingzhou is rich! Outcome! Joy is sad! was mistaken by Jingzhou soldiers for grabbing territory, and Zhang Ji died under the stray arrow! Left behind Zhang Xiu, who was alone, and his daughter-in-law Zou, who had been widowed for a long time!

Liu Biao, the assassin of Jingzhou, deeply regretted this matter, and apologized, and set aside a place in Wancheng to Zhang Xiu, and there was a free supply of grain and grass every month, which lasted for nearly a year

If you want to talk about the importance of Wancheng, can Zhang Xiu not know it? Wancheng is located in the north of Nanyang, the west of Hanzhong, and the south of Fengqiu, which can be described as a hub place, whether it is Cao Cao of Yanzhou to go south or Liu Biao of Jingzhou to go north, or Zhang Lu of Hanzhong to go east, it is inevitable to pass through here!

Since Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shu, most of the western part of Yuzhou was divided between him and Liu Biao, Liu Biao took the south of Wancheng, Cao Cao took the north of Wancheng, and Wancheng was divided into a buffer zone.

And now Zhang Xiu is going north from Wancheng under the banner of "King Qin", and has broken through three or five county towns along the way, and the soldiers are pointing directly at the southern barrier of Xuchang - Fengqiu!

Cao Cao wants to fight Wancheng, nothing more than wanting to occupy this important strategic place, and the princes in all directions must be careful when attacking Xuzhou, especially Liu Biao in Jingzhou, this grandson don't look at the usual honest and honest, it's cloudy!

In addition, from the geographical point of view, there are only two dangerous places between Jingzhou and Xuchang, the current capital of Yanzhou, one is Fengqiu, and the other is Wancheng, in order to strengthen the defense of Xuchang, Wancheng must also be obtained;

The history books say that Cao Cao was the worst defeat in his life? Chibi? Weishui? Yes! Neither! It's the battle of Wancheng! It was also the most ridiculous defeat he ever had!

In the Battle of Wancheng, as the commander of the First Army, he was not a good commander, and took the lead in recruiting women into the barracks; As a father he was not a good father, his son died in battle for him, and as a lord, he was not a good lord because of his rashness, because of his complacency to the point of causing great disaster

Li Yu was furious when he heard Cao Cao's idea, he wanted to conquer Wancheng in person? Are you kidding!

Looking at Li Yu's uncertain face, Cao Cao smiled: "Don't worry! I'll be back when you get married! Will definitely attend! ”

After a few deep breaths, Li Yu calmed down, hiding his anxiety and stunned: "Big brother! Who are you going to take with you to Wancheng? Soldier geometry? How many will it be? Who is responsible for the logistical baggage? Can you prepare for strategy and tactics? How should the little emperor in the deep palace respond? With this go, the implication is great!

Only if you sit in the entire sphere of influence will you be at ease, and only you can suppress those imperial henchmen, we are not qualified! Isn't it? You really want to be quiet and hide far away, but who is in charge of the rest of these things! The situation in Xuzhou has changed, what should I do! It's all about the whole body! No sloppiness!

It is no exaggeration to say that you are now the Lord and the Monarch! Wouldn't it be nice to leave the things of fighting and killing to someone else? Monarch! Only do good deeds, only do things that are beneficial to yourself, and leave things that are not good for yourself to others to do! ”

Li Yu's gushing words were nothing more than an attempt to stop Cao Cao's action, or "Why don't you wait for me to do it after I get married?" ”

Cao Cao has never been a stingy person, but he is also a stingy person at the same time, Li Yu's words made him very unhappy, he never thought that he lost to anyone, especially in military strategy, he didn't know where Li Yu's worries came from, but he wanted to prove himself, it was a kind of selfishness

"Don't worry! There is almost a month to go! A small Wancheng, still not ready to capture? Cao Cao snorted a haha, but the tone in it is absolutely irrefutable;" Zhang Xiu's ability to garrison and occupy Wancheng is definitely due to Liu Jingsheng's instructions! Liu Jingsheng, this old guy is not a fuel-efficient lamp, what if it causes a backlash from Jingzhou? ”

"Stop, stop!" , Cao Cao was a little irritable, and even a little angry: "I don't know where your worries come from!" But why not believe me? Wyder? ”

Li Yu sighed and said helplessly: "As soon as you say that you will go to Wancheng, I will be inexplicably vigilant in my heart, I always feel that something big is going to happen, I believe in me!" Who will harm you, will I still harm you? ”

"You!" , Cao Cao and Li Yu looked at each other, he saw a pair of sincere eyes, his heart was soft, he knew that Li Yu would not harm him, but he had other plans: "I mean, hey! Let's put it this way! I have a little selfishness, and after I leave, the whole situation will be handed over to you to grasp, only you have the ability and courage!

I mean let you hit those royalists hard while I'm away! That's it, hey, hey! Even if it damages your reputation, I can't get some benefits! ”

Neither of them could convince anyone, so they quarreled in the study until midnight, until dawn; "Listen! What is this sound? Cao Cao, whose eyes were bloodshot and his voice was hoarse, supported his ears, and he was opposite Li Yu, who looked the same; The gate of Sikong Mansion is the tightest and the loosest, no one dares to intercept these time-critical letters such as requests for help in military affairs, war reports, etc., and the fast horses flying outside the city soon came to Sikong Mansion, and the heralds soon came to Cao Cao; "Wancheng Zhang Xiu invaded my territory in order to break through the county and Ye county!"

"Isn't this a mess, isn't it? Is it better to strike first? Li Yu was speechless! I can't stop the most worrying thing, Cao Ang! What shall I do to save you?

"It's providence! You can't stop it! Cao Cao said loudly; Li Yu closed his eyes and stopped talking; (To be continued)
