Chapter 824: Plan Early

Yuan Shao sent Tian Feng to Luoyang, and Liu Bei, who was in Xiapi at this time, was not idle.

recruited the remnants of the Yellow Turban in the Xiapi area, and Liu Bei's soldiers and horses have rapidly expanded to tens of thousands.

If you only talk about the number of soldiers and horses, at this time, he also has the strength to fight with Cao Cao, but Liu Bei knows very well that the soldiers and horses under his command, if you talk about elite, are not even one percent of Cao's army.

Although he was bent on defeating Cao Cao, Liu Bei felt that he did not have that strength, and could only hope that Mi Zhu could persuade Yuan Shao to send troops with him to defeat Cao Cao.

In Liu Bei's heart, there is still a layer of consideration.

Yuan Shao's strength is enough to deal with Cao Cao, and more importantly, Yuan Shao and Liu Wei are very close, once a war breaks out in Hebei, Liu Wei will definitely not sit idly by.

Attacking from three sides to deal with Cao Cao, in Liu Bei's calculations, it was absolutely enough.

Liu Bei's plan was nothing more than to break through Xu Du and take Liu Xie away as the emperor's uncle, and then it was no longer Cao Cao who coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, but Liu Bei!

Every time he thinks of this, Liu Bei is full of expectations for the first battle in Hebei.

Yuan Shao and Liu Bei were both plotting against Cao Cao, and at this time in the city of Xudu, Cao Cao, who knew that his family had become the target of the public, was not very happy.

What Cao Cao is worried about is not the alliance of Liu Bei and Yuan Shao, what he is really worried about is that Liu Wei will also intervene.

As soon as Tian Feng set off from Hebei, Cao Cao got the news that he was going to Luoyang.

The current situation is delicate, how Cao Cao doesn't know what Tian Feng is going to Luoyang.

Sitting at the low table in the study, Cao Cao pinched his chin with one hand, frowned, and looked at the endgame of the game in front of him, and he didn't fall for a long time.

"Recently, Ming Gong seems to be restless, but he is worried about Yuan Shao in Hebei?" With a white child twisted in his hand, Guo Jia looked up at Cao Cao, who was full of melancholy, and asked him.

"Those who know me, Feng Xiaoye!" Nodding, Cao Cao sighed, stood up with his hands behind his back, walked to the window, looked out the window, and said to Guo Jia: "Hebei Yuan Shao, now the family is restless, a certain is not afraid of him, as for that Liu Bei, it is nothing more than a clown ear jumping off the beam!" Someone who is afraid of it, there is only King Qin! ”

"If Duke Ming is jealous of King Qin, he will think about it too much!" Smiling slightly, Guo Jia stood up and walked behind Cao Cao, and said to him: "Right now, Yuan Shao is tense, as if he wants to fight with Ming. But the King of Qin may not necessarily send troops to attack Ming Gong with him! ”

"What do you mean by that?" Hearing Guo Jia's words, Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, looked back at him and said: "King Qin and that Yuan Shao are irreversible, if Yuan Shao is crusading against Yu, how can he not send troops?" ”

"The Qin army has always conquered everything! Although King Qin is wise, he has a drawback! Smiling slightly, Guo Jia said to Cao Cao: "The King of Qin has always cherished his generals, but looking at the thousands of enemies dying on the battlefield, if the Qin army has too many casualties, the King of Qin is unwilling!" ”

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, looked at Guo Jia, and did not interrupt him.

"The soldiers under the command of the Duke of Ming are all warriors of a hundred battles, although the Qin army is brave, the two armies are fighting, but they are not sure of victory!" Cao Cao didn't speak, and Guo Jia continued: "The King of Qin has pity on the soldiers, and he will not risk sending troops to the Duke of Ming. Even if the troops are sent, it is the Ming Duke who will transfer the troops and horses to the front line of Hebei, and he will secretly attack! ”

Listening to Guo Jia's analysis, Cao Cao's brows furrowed slightly, his eyes narrowed, but he still didn't speak.

What he was worried about was that Liu Wei would take advantage of the fact that his army was in Hebei and secretly launched an attack on Xudu.

"What if the Qin army takes advantage of the emptiness of our army and drives straight into the capital to break through Xudu?" With his brows furrowed slightly, Cao Cao finally asked Guo Jia.

"Order the Qingzhou Army to defend the pass!" Holding his fists and bowing to Cao Cao, Guo Jia said to him: "If you want to not fall behind when facing Yuan Shao, there are two things that Ming Gong has to do right now. One thing is to defeat Hanoi Zhang Yang, and the other thing is to defeat Liu Bei in one fell swoop while Yuan Shao has not yet raised troops! ”

His brows were tightly furrowed, Cao Cao was silent for a moment, nodded, and said to Guo Jia: "I have ordered Xiahoudun to crusade against Zhang Yang, but I don't know when it will be broken!" ”

"Publicity is nothing more than a coward!" Shaking his head with a smile, Guo Jia said to Cao Cao: "The subordinates have a plan, but in the near future, they have broken the publicity in one fell swoop!" ”

"What's the plan?" Guo Jia said that he had a plan, but he broke Zhang Yang in one fell swoop recently, and Cao Cao hurriedly asked him.

"Cao Gong can take General Cao Hong and lead 10,000 soldiers and horses to Hanoi!" With a smile on his face, Guo Jia said to Cao Cao: "It's just that these 10,000 soldiers and horses must be changed into the clothes and armor of the soldiers under Yuan Shao......"

"Feng Xiao is ......" Before Guo Jia finished speaking, Cao Cao suddenly opened his eyes and asked him in a low voice: "Falsely claiming reinforcements and deceiving the city, and then should the inside and outside cooperate?" ”

"Exactly!" Nodding his head, the smile on the corner of Guo Jia's mouth became much brighter.

"Someone!" After Guo Jia's strategy, Cao Cao didn't even think about it, so he shouted outside the door.

A guard guarding outside the study heard the shouts and hurried into the room.

"General Cao Hong immediately, please come here!" Looking at the soldier, Cao Cao instructed him: "There is a military order for him to go!" ”

"No!" The guard bowed to his fists in response, and then exited the study.

Cao Cao was planning and deploying for a possible war with Yuan Shao in the future, received Tian Feng, and indicated that he did not support Liu Shao's attack on Cao Cao, but he was wholeheartedly concerned about the progress of the guards in Houyuan Lake to catch big fish.

The guards had been salvaging for several days, not to mention that they hadn't seen the big fish, not even half of the scales.

Standing by the lake, looking at the guards who were casting nets on the boats in the lake, Liu Wei frowned tightly, and he didn't say a word for a long time.

Wang Liu and Wang Zhen, who were standing behind him, also stood for a long time, Liu Wei didn't speak, and they didn't dare to speak lightly.

After standing for two hours, Wang Liu whispered to Liu Wei: "Your Highness, the guards have been salvaging for a long time, but they have not been able to catch the big fish. ”

"Wang Zhen is dazzled......" repeated Wang Liu's words, but Liu Wei's expression did not relax in the slightest, and said to Wang Liu: "Wang Zhen may be dazzled, but when the king of Japan and Qing'er also saw the big fish with their own eyes, could it be that the two of us are dazzled at the same time?" ”

was questioned by Liu, Wang Liu was stunned for a moment, and then did not dare to speak again.

After a moment of silence, Liu Biancai continued: "When the king of Japan saw the big fish, Yu Ji sent a letter to him, saying that the big fish was a sign......

"Yu Ji?" As soon as Liu Wei mentioned Yu Ji, Wang Zhen pouted and smiled and said, "But that Fang Dao person? How can His Highness believe the words of the demon way? ”

"On the day I saw the big fish, I received Yu Ji's letter!" Glancing back at Wang Zhen, Liu Wei asked her: "Yu Ji was in Yangzhou at that time, even if he knew about it, how could he have time to send the letter to this king on the same day?" ”

After listening to Liu Wei's words, Wang Zhen was stunned, and he refused to believe that Yu Ji would have such great ability.

Looking at the guards who were salvaging the big fish in the lake, Liu Wei frowned slightly, as if talking to himself: "What are the signs of the appearance of the big fish this time?" Yu Ji didn't send the letter, did he not calculate the matter, or was there another reason? ”

Wang Liu and Wang Zhen, who were standing behind Liu Wei, listened to his muttered words, but did not dare to respond lightly.

Both of them knew that Liu Wei absolutely believed that the big fish was a sign.

They have also heard of Yu Ji's name, but in the past, whenever Yu Ji was mentioned, the two sisters would immediately think of the demon way that deceived people with their three-inch tongue, and they would not believe that he had real ability at all.

But Liu Bian's words made them have some doubts in their hearts, if Yu Ji really had the ability to calculate what would happen in a few days, and asked someone to send a letter to Liu Bian, then he really had some ability!

Liu Wei wondered in his heart why there was a big fish this time, and Yu Ji didn't send him another letter.

He didn't know that Yu Ji at this time was healing people for the plague in the Jiangdong area.

Sun Ce occupied Jiangdong, and the heroes in Jiangdong were soon flattened by Sun Ce, only Xiakou Huangzu, who still confronted Sun's army across the river with the support of Liu Biao.

After the Battle of Tiger Pass, Sun Jian led the army back to Jiangdong and died at the hands of Huang Zu in the battle with Liu Biao.

The Sun family and Huang Zu had a common enmity, and Sun Ce also launched several crusades against Huang Zu in a row, all of which were in vain.

Occupying Jiangdong, Sun Ce practiced his soldiers and horses all day long, only waiting for his strength to be enough, and then crusading against Huang Zu.

But the heavens are not beautiful, and at the critical juncture when Sun Ce was accumulating grain and grass and training soldiers, a plague occurred in Jiangdong inexplicably.

Many people were infected with the plague, and more and more people were dying of the disease day by day.

The streets were full of people who had died of the plague, or people who had spent all their savings but had not been cured of the disease, and had to sit against the wall all day waiting to die.

The plague was raging, and Sun Ce was also in a great hurry, and every day he would lead a team of soldiers to the market to check the epidemic.

On this day, Sun Ce led dozens of guards and was walking in the market, checking all the way to see how many people were suffering from the plague, when he suddenly saw a large group of people gathered in front of him.

Finding that a large group of people had gathered in front of him, Sun Ce frowned slightly, and ordered a guard behind him: "You go and see what is happening ahead." ”

The guard received the order, answered, and ran quickly towards the place where the crowd had gathered.

Standing in the same place, quietly waiting for the guards to come back, Sun Ce's brows were always tightly locked.

For some reason, when he asked the guards to check, he had a bad feeling in his heart, always feeling that something might be happening, but for a while, he couldn't tell what was going on.
