Chapter 586: Wei State Copes

In the eighth year of the Chu calendar, the weather became cooler, and the war situation in the north inevitably gradually stopped......

In particular, in coastal operations, among the large ports in the Bohai Sea, only Liaodong Port can not freeze in the middle of winter, and the others cannot normally enter and exit medium-sized ships in the coldest month or so.

However, in the previous two and a half months, Lu Bu had also used the tactic of "sea 'cavalry' attack" to make Wei pay enough price.

The coastal workshops, which accounted for nearly forty percent of the output of the Wei state's workshops, were destroyed under the strong ships and cannons of the Chu state......

It not only liberated a large number of slave laborers who were enslaved by the evil Wei State, dealt a blow to the arrogance of the evil and evil gate lords of the Wei State, but also suppressed the war potential of the Wei State.

As for the objective situation, these workshops did provide the Wei people with the opportunity to work within the normal scope although they were oppressed, and there was also such a thing as improving the living standards of the Wei people in terms of production...... Obviously to think about it later!

The limit of what the Chu State can do is that it will not wantonly plunder the Wei people to the south or migrate to other areas controlled by the Chu State, but since the war has begun, it will definitely not show mercy to these workshops.

Originally, before Guo Jia's death, under the final arrangements and advice, not only Xiahoudun used his power to quickly mobilize troops for the first wave of defense, but Cao Cao, after learning of Guo Jia's last words, also mobilized all the forces of Wei (that could be mobilized) to cooperate.

Of course, there are other "rumors" in this – such as ...... Cao Cao fainted on the spot after learning of Guo Jia's last words, or the news of the Bohai War, and it was Xun Yu who gave the order, and some said that Cao Zhi gave the order on his behalf.

In short, from Lu Bu's point of view, Wei's response was timely, but the follow-up was indeed somewhat ...... Not coordinated enough!

Under the superiority of the navy's mobility, even if he knew the tactics that Lu Bu was going to use, he was still in Bohai Port today and would arrive at Andong Port tomorrow...... This kind of high-powered attack, still only using 30,000 people, completely collapsed the coastal defense of Wei.

In the case of Wei's army, whose movement speed is far inferior to Chu's naval aviation, it is equivalent to an opponent with a "shadow clone".

What's more, the 30,000 attacking troops of the Chu State are not able to resist with 30,000 defenders, which is equivalent to the Wei State not only needs to use several times the number of troops to hold on, but also needs several more regions, each of which has prepared so many troops.

As for the Wei State also used the sea to transport troops?

You must know that in addition to Lu Bu's 30,000 troops attacking the sea with sea transport ships and fast sea voyages, there are still 30,000 elite navies of the Chu State in the Bohai Sea, and after the Bohai Sea War, there is almost no damage.

Although some of them have to protect the troop carriers, there are still enough cruises!

Even if there are still ships in the Wei State, they will blow up one when they come out......

Therefore, in just over two months, the coastal areas of Wei were completely lost, and now Wei has also changed its thinking and began to abandon the coastal areas that are "unimportant" to themselves in the sense of land warfare.

As for the destroyed workshops, the proportion of Wei official workshops is actually very low......

After all, the official workshops of the Wei State are basically concentrated in military production, and there is no need to consider sales, and even there are considerations of concealment and safety, so they are not crowded with private workshops in the coastal areas.

Therefore, a wave of coastal offensives, in fact, for the Wei State, the imperial court and the gate valve are basically the responsibility of the 28 Kai, so it is natural to ...... Cao Cao made a trade-off easily!

This is also the transformation that began to occur in the Wei State half a month ago......

And at this time, in front of the white pattern, there is more definite news.

"It seems that the rumors that Cao Cao was in poor health before should indeed be true...... This is like Cao Cao's own handwriting. Bai Tu looked at the recent situation in Wei and couldn't help but nodded.

The good news is that Cao Cao should indeed not be able to govern a while ago, and the bad news is...... Now it's time again!

The "tentacles" of the Chu State are very developed, and there are also many shadows in Yecheng, but it is more manifested in the timeliness of the news, and the "insider" of the core is not accessible to the wind catcher.

Cao Cao was unable to serve before, and apparently blocked the news......

In the face of Lu Bu's "toss", Wei's response was divided into three stages, the initial emergency stage, Wei's response was not unpleasant, so that Lu Bu and Zhang Liao gave up simply "striking the east and attacking the west", and went straight into Weidu, this kind of tactic of looking down on people.

And in the second stage, in Lu Bu's opinion, Wei was a little stupid.

actually ran into Lu Bu a few times for those ports and workshops that could definitely not be saved, but every time he was taught to be a man.

If you insist on talking about the harvest of Wei, it is probably to give some workshops time to evacuate, but it is not worth mentioning compared to the losses of the Wei army.

Such a strategy full of humanistic care was evaluated by Lu Bu as "sluggish command".

Even if it is the state of Chu, in this case, to cover the evacuation of the people, it must be light, in order to preserve more property, or even to make a fortune of the war, the state of Chu will not carry out superfluous protection......

However, the stupid second stage of Wei lasted for more than a month, and then it was now the third stage - only considering the land battlefield location, and sticking to the favorable and important areas!

It was also after entering this stage that Lu Bu's offensive was contained.

According to Bai Tu's speculation, in the second stage, it should be Cao Cao's illness, and the court's decision-making is a little out of control!

Whether it was Cao Zhi or Xun Yu who was in charge, Bai Tu couldn't guess, but no matter who it was, they should have been affected by too much outside the battlefield at that time, otherwise it would be impossible for so many generals in Wei not to see that it was stupid.

It's a pity that Cao Cao has obviously returned to charge now, and Wei has also regained his ability and is no longer affected by some "off-the-field" factors, which is indeed bad news for Chu State.

In addition, Bai Tu expected, after Cao Cao re-took charge, the liquidation of the previous "off-site interference" did not happen......

Originally, Bai Tu also hoped that Wei Guo could make a mess of himself first.

It seems that even Cao Cao can't do a lossless liquidation, so he has to appease some people after setting things right!

In fact, Bai Tu didn't guess wrong!

Indeed, in the second stage of the Wei State, Xun Yu was ordered to assist Cao Zhi in the administration - because Cao Cao still had a short consciousness before he fell, Xun Yu was given a lot of power.

However, even so, because Cao Zhi has already become one with the vast gate valves, and indeed wants to give up the vast coastal areas, it will not only require great courage, but also great authority......

It is often more difficult to order a direct retreat and give up than to order to hold on, after all, Xun Yu is not the king of Wei after all!

Now Cao Cao's mood is very depressed, not only because of his previous losses, but also because of his disappointment with Cao Zhi.

And...... Something that would make him even more depressed was about to happen!

Lu Bu and Zhang Liao obviously didn't want to be wintered by Wei like this......
