The plan was set, and Qingzhou's huge war machine was set into action.

Xu Huang's troops were the first to act, and after forming an alliance with Lu Bu, the Taishan army was already without an enemy, and even if it did not carry out a northern expedition, it had to consider the issue of moving defense.

After repeated expansions, the Taishan army has 22,000 soldiers, and it is the focus of the attention of the princes of the four directions.

Luoyang.

"Crossing the river in Kurateitsu one after another? What about the goal? Are you finally going north? Now you can breathe a sigh of relief. In Cao Cao's general's mansion, the staff rushed to tell each other, celebrated each other, and even a steady person like Xun Yu showed a relieved look.

In the past year, although Wang Yu has had many adventures and fought bloody battles, why didn't Cao Jun tremble and walk on thin ice? The defense of Qingzhou and the Western Expedition are both related to the fate of Cao Cao's army, and they are also extremely dangerous.

Xu Yu's conspiracy, Liu Bei's ambition, Lu Bu's pride, Yuan Shu's greed, Chen Deng's father and son's resourcefulness, and even Liu Yu's reputation in the eyes of the barbarians all became the lifeline for Cao Cao's army.

Only when he is in the bureau does he know how hard Cao Cao has been this year.

The Xiliang Army, which was first beaten by Wang Yu and then played by Xu Shu in Hedong, was not as weak as the legend, Li Dao and Guo Yan were full of vigor with their troops, Fan Chou and Hu Zhen were fierce and fierce, and even the waste-like Niu Fu became extremely fierce after getting the help of Li Ru.

In the battle of Wuguan, Xiahou Yuan came to be defeated, thinking that Xiliang and Nanyang were so far away, as long as the news of the defeat spread, and then made corresponding strategic adjustments, Ma Teng and Han Sui could be confused.

Who would have thought that Li Ru would use his troops to be clever, and after discovering the flaws, he chased and beat them fiercely. No relaxation.

Xiahou Yuan is also known as General Fei in Cao's army, because he uses his troops quickly and comes and goes like the wind. Let him deceive and lure the enemy, but also in the consideration of preserving his strength as much as possible. As a result, Xiahou Yuan tried his best, but he couldn't get rid of Li Ru's pursuit, so the deception turned into a real defeat, and Xiahou Yuan almost gave his life to Li Ru.

When the bad news reached Luoyang, Cao Cao and his staff were stunned.

Cao Cao's family background is not as thick as Wang Yu. As a result, Xiahou Yuan lost tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in this battle, and his strength became even more disproportionate. If Wang Yu took the opportunity to attack after receiving the news, he really didn't know what to resist.

Ma Teng was too far away, although there was someone to deliver the news, but waited until the other party got the news. And take action, how can you wait until winter. If Dong Zhuo hears the news, fights with Ma Teng, reveals flaws, and forms a fighter, at least until next spring......

For such a long time, Nanyang was besieged. Shaanxi County is facing off, and if the Qingzhou army advances westward, Cao Cao may not be able to take out even a quarter of his troops. At the same time, Wang Yu has arrived in Puyang. Lu Bu seems to be intent on putting aside his pride and joining forces with Qingzhou......

did not collapse on the spot, which is enough to verify Cao Cao's excellent psychological quality. However, that doesn't mean he doesn't have anything. That night, the lights in his study were on until midnight, until Guo Jia came to visit him. After a long conversation between the two, Cao Cao regained his confidence, and then there was the far-reaching Puyang Rebellion.

After the defeat of Xiahou Yuan, Cao Cao's army suddenly improved.

Chen Gong, a famous man who has always regarded Cao Cao as an enemy who does not share the sky, is now in Guanzhong, and he is doing his best to lobby Dong Zhuo to try to mediate this battle in Guanzhong.

Trying to be a yellow sparrow, Liu Biao, who came to Nanyang to pick up cheap, was copied by Sun Ce, and in just two months of the war, Jiangxia was already in danger, Huang Zu reported urgently on the third day, desperately asking Xiangyang for help, Liu Biao had to go to the backyard to extinguish the fire first, and then take care of Nanyang, which was at his fingertips.

The bigger good news is that Li Ru suddenly fell ill, and Niu Fu, who had lost his assistance, was beaten back to his original form, although the situation of the Xiliang army in Nanyang still had the upper hand, but Wancheng had turned from danger to safety, and there was no danger. If it weren't for the fear that Ma Teng would retract again, Cao Cao could even mobilize Xiahou Yuan in Yingchuan to attack Xiahou Yuan inside and outside to break Niu Fu's soldiers and horses.

There is also the news that Cao Cao has been waiting for for a long time - after a long wait, Ma Teng finally raised his troops!

Immediately afterwards, the news of the Qingzhou Army's northward march was like a natural sound, and it came suddenly.

Be unexpectedly rescued from a desperate situation!

Get a new lease on life!

Cao Cao's general's mansion was full of jubilation. Celebrities and gentlemen have hollowed out their minds and used up all their life's learning, but they can't describe this miraculous divine turn!

"Destiny! This is destiny! Sima Lang raised his hands to the sky, tears in his eyes with excitement, and he couldn't help himself.

Since the first year of Chu Ping, the Sima clan in Hanoi has been trapped in a seemingly endless nightmare. First of all, Wang Kuang acted perversely, so that they had to move their family east to Wei County to avoid trouble. But even so, he couldn't completely avoid this catastrophe, and his younger brother Sima Kui, who refused to leave his hometown in Wenxian County, got involved in Han Hao's army somehow, and died in the chaos.

After knowing that the murderers were Wang Yu and Lu Bu, the Sima family wept blood and were determined to take revenge. But before they could find an opportunity, Wang Yu had already soared into the sky with an unstoppable momentum.

thought that the Hebei War was an opportunity, but Yuan Shao, who had many soldiers and generals, didn't hold it for even a year, so he collapsed; Immediately afterwards, Sima's family fled south again, pinning their hopes on Cao Cao, but within a few days, they reluctantly found that their family should move again, and Cao Cao was also cowardly in the face of Qingzhou's strength.

In this way, Sima Lang took his family to Luoyang.

In several migrations, his elderly grandfather Sima Jun couldn't stand the pain of displacement, and died on the way, adding a strong blood feud between the Sima family and the Wang family, but the hope of revenge is still extremely slim.

Today, the light finally appears!

Sima Lang knew very well that as long as he got through the current difficulties, Cao Cao's army would have a smooth road in front of him, because there were famous families like them standing behind Cao Cao!

"The sky will not die in the Han, and the Han Zhongxing is hopeful!" Sima Lang's cheers aroused many resonances, and for a while, the atmosphere in the general's mansion was extremely warm, as if Dong Zhuo and Wang Yu had been destroyed, and the holy car had arrived in Luoyang.

Such an atmosphere made Cao Cao feel slightly drunk, not experiencing wind and rain, not seeing the rainbow, this kind of willow and flower and another village feeling is really beautiful.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze wandered through the enthusiastic cheering crowd, and he laughed loudly, until his gaze swept over the corner and saw the depressed Guo Jia, and then he stopped with a slight stunned.

He frowned, stepped forward, and asked in a low voice, "Fengxiao, today's matter, your strategic work, why are you acting like this?" Is there something wrong? ”

Cao Cao knew that Guo Jia was not a very gregarious person, he was too proud, ordinary people couldn't get into his eyes, and he himself never hid this.

Cao Cao was not dissatisfied with this, he knew that this kind of unsociability was deliberately done by Guo Jia, as a military advisor above 10,000 people under one person, he had to have the consciousness of being a lonely minister, otherwise he would wait for the rabbit to die and the dog to cook, and the bird would hide it.

Everyone is a smart person, and some words don't need to be broken, just tacitly.

However, on this occasion today, it is unusual for Guo Jia to still behave like this. After getting through the difficulties, isn't it very conducive to enhancing cohesion and confidence that everyone is happy together?

"Your Lord, think this is something to celebrate?" Guo Jia didn't answer the rhetorical question, the question seemed redundant, but in fact it was sharp, and he asked the scheming Cao Cao on the spot.

"Is there something mysterious in this?" Cao Cao asked uncertainly.

This is not completely impossible, Wang Yu confused himself through the mobilization of the Taishan army, and then took the Lü Bu army as the vanguard, and cooperated with the Wei Jun Yulin army to launch an attack on Luoyang. However, Cao Cao was not defenseless against this, and he also didn't think that Lu Bujun, whose strength had been greatly damaged, could pose much of a threat to himself.

Guo Jia shook his head lightly: "There is no plan. General Wang's intention to march north has been decided, like an arrow on the string, unless Liu Bo'an gives in, the battle of Youzhou is inevitable. ”

"Then ......" Cao Cao couldn't figure out what Guo Jia meant.

"This northern expedition may also become a turning point for the hussars......" Guo Jia sighed quietly: "Before that, General Wang used his troops and blindly took risks and sought speed, which certainly made him defeat the strong with the weak many times and fight quickly, but taking risks is taking risks, and for both hostile sides, opportunities and risks coexist. ”

"If Cao Bao was not greedy for merit in the Battle of Maling, but went hand in hand with Que Xuan, what would be the result of that battle? What if he was a little more stable and connected with Liu Bei in advance? There is also the Battle of Xiapi...... If all this is the case, as long as Wang Yu takes a day of danger, our army will have the opportunity to take the powerful hussar army lightly. ”

"But now ......" Guo Jia spread his hands and sighed: "Obviously, he wants to take the lead step by step, command the large army, and carry out a long, large-scale war." From then on, he may disappear from the front of the battle and become a prince in the pure sense of the word, and when the time comes, if our army wants to compete with the hussars, it will have to fight hard. ”

"......" Cao Cao was speechless for a long time, before he raised his head, looked westward, looked at the clear sky there, and asked: "Then Fengxiao thinks that even if our army captures Guanzhong, it will still not be able to match Qingzhou in terms of strength?" ”

"Our army seized Guanzhong, and the hussars pacified Hebei, as long as the losses in the battle of Youzhou were not too large...... Hehe, lord, do you think it is possible for our army to surpass Qingzhou in strength? ”

Cao Cao only felt a breath of stuffy air in his throat, and his face was flushed. He wanted to say out loud, how not? And give the example of Qin's reunification in the Guanzhong. But before he could say anything, he had already rejected this idea himself.

The reason why the Qin State was able to occupy Guanzhong and sweep was because the six countries of Kwantung could not unanimously face the enemy, and Guanzhong had not experienced too many wars, so it could sit back and watch the enemy's strength weaken day by day, but its own side was growing stronger day by day, and finally sent troops in a big way to lay the foundation.

In the case of a two-strong rivalry, it is somewhat less applicable.

The previous euphoria was gone, Cao Cao took a deep breath, and asked humbly, "Can Feng Xiao teach me?" ”

Guo Jia opened his mouth, and he also had a bamboo in his chest, he raised three fingers, and said softly: "The minister has three strategies, upper, middle and lower, which can be used for the lord to consult in detail......
