Cao Cao was hesitating, but others would not wait for Cao Cao to figure everything out before acting.

Fang Zhiwen was not interested in continuing to recuperate in Dangxian County, when Cao Cao was busy attacking Jingzhou, Fang Zhiwen was naturally happy to relieve Cao Cao's pressure a little, so Yan Liang's troops were attacking under Dangxian County, while Fang Zhiwen was wandering around every day, attacking and disturbing the enemy's logistics.

Also playing soy sauce are Huang Xu and Xu Huang, Xu Huang is slightly better, Huainan is a big place, Xu Huang always has a harvest when he walks around, but Huang Xu was strictly ordered not to go deep into Qian County, and as a result, he can only wander in the generation of Fuli to Shansang, which is the first area to clear the wilderness, hundreds of miles of desolate people, and Huang Xu is depressed.

When Cao Cao successfully took the eastern part of Jingzhou, Fang Zhiwen thought that Cao Cao would speed up the evacuation of Qian County and Huainan, who knew that Cao Cao suddenly did the opposite, slowing down the speed of evacuation, and even the imperial court that was supposed to be transferred to Xiangyang immediately suddenly stopped and stayed in Qian County.

"Husband, didn't you say that Cao Cao won Jingzhou, and he would definitely go to Jingzhou District to recuperate and lick the wounds of the war, why does Cao Cao seem to be unable to leave?"

Taishi Zhaorong definitely did it on purpose, Fang Zhiwen looked at the smiling Taishi Zhaorong with some embarrassment, and hated it a little, but unfortunately it wasn't the night now, otherwise he would have rectified the Fa directly on the spot! dared to laugh at her husband, it was really a sin

"Uh... This person is a strange animal, sometimes he will be confused, Cao Cao will too, and it is even more terrible for smart people to be confused. ”

"Why, 1 Taishi Zhaorong held back a smile. Watch how the husband hides his guess wrong.

Because he is smart, he will find all kinds of reasonable excuses for himself to cover up his mistakes, and even think that the people around him are not as smart as himself, so how can he listen to the advice of others. Therefore, it is terrible for a wise person to be confused1

"Is it like the husband is now? Hee-hee. ”

"No! Tonight is going to be punished well, well, decided 1

Taishi Zhaorong's cheeks suddenly turned red like a little girl, and she lowered her head twistedly, and looked around the corners of her eyes. The coquettish resentment in his mouth said: "Husband 1."

Fang Zhiwen's heart was itching, but now it was broad daylight, and he was on the march, so he couldn't do anything he wanted to!

Clearing his throat, Fang Zhiwen drove away the strange desires in his heart, and straightened his mind: "Cao Cao's thoughts may have changed with the arrival of Jingzhou. He may have felt that Jingzhou was too easy to get his hands on, and the loss was not big, and Liu Bei was surprisingly weak, but on the other hand, our connivance also gave him the illusion that we would be happy to see him hit Yuan Shao again. ”

"Hit Yuan Shao hard, how can this hit Yuan Shao hard? Could it be that he wanted to lead Yuan Shao to attack Qian County. But why did he think that our army would not assist Yuan Shao? ”

"We really won't assist Yuan Shao in attacking Qian County, because we can't take the initiative to attack the location of the imperial court, and it can be said that we are retaliating against Cao Jun's attack before, and directly attacking the imperial court, that is a rebellion1

"Yuan Shao doesn't care, do we still care?"

Fang Zhiwen nodded and said: "We really care, because that is a kind of righteousness, we can't easily step on that line, we are rule-abiding people, and this must be pursued from beginning to end." Not to show others, but to show the people of Youzhou, so that they can have confidence in the credibility of Youzhou's government. ”

"Oh, I don't understand, anyway, we can't do things that are against morality. So as not to have a negative impact on the credibility of the government, right? ”

"That's right, now everyone still respects the imperial power, the Liu family is still a legitimate royal family, representing the Zhengshuo image of the Han Dynasty, so we can't easily trample on the dignity of the royal family, of course, if someone else does it, we turn a blind eye, and the people of Youzhou don't care."

"Uh-he-he, the people are so easy to deceive1

"No, the people are not easy to deceive, they are very smart, they know that the imperial power is a symbol, proper respect for the imperial power, but also respect for the rules, a kind of protection for themselves, but let them take out real interests to help maintain the interests of the imperial power, they need to think carefully, not to mention that this kind of imperial power is just a symbol, as long as we are not too excessive, they will not have any dissatisfaction."

Taishi Zhaorong frowned, thought for a moment and shook his head: "It's so complicated, I don't understand, it's good for these husbands to think about it, so what should we do now?" Did Cao Cao really let Yuan Shao hit him hard? ”

"Of course not, Yuan Shao has lost nearly 150,000 elites so far, almost, in the future, the Central Plains will be so big, Yuan Shao's troops will not be enough, but he will be bullied by Cao Cao."

"Then we can go to the periphery of Qian County to help, but the logistics are more troublesome."

"No, I don't want to be led by Cao Cao, since he is so greedy, how can he do it without paying a price1

Cao Cao looked at the battle report in his hand, the expression on his face was quite rich, unwilling, humiliated, ashamed and angry, etc., the battle report in his hand was the battle report from Li Jin in Ruyang.

Fang Zhiwen's two cavalry suddenly appeared near Ruyang, according to the banner, it should be Fang Zhiwen's troops and Huang Xu's troops, I can't imagine that these two cavalry are really bold enough to penetrate thousands of miles into the enemy's territory and carry out a large-scale attack, aren't they worried about their logistics?

Or, what can Fang Zhiwen do to solve the logistical problem?

Also, what made Cao Cao even more uncomfortable was that Xi Zhicai once again accurately guessed Fang Zhiwen's actions, but he was wrong, could he really be inferior to Xi Zhicai, Cao Cao couldn't help but feel a little jealous.

After pondering for a while, Cao Cao said in a deep voice: "Come on, please ask Xi Zhicai to come and see his true appearance." ”

Xi Zhicai was ordered to arrive in a hurry, Cao Cao was burying his head on the map, and when he heard a sound, Cao Cao raised his head.

"The subordinates have seen the lord, and the lord is anxious to recruit his subordinates, but there is something sudden 1

"Well, look at this, Fang Zhiwen is running thousands of miles. Raided Ruyang, and now Li Jin's situation is not very good, this time you guessed 1 correctly

Xi Zhicai took the battle report from Cao Cao's hand and glanced at Cao Cao, but his face was not colorful. As for whether there is one in the heart, it is unknown.

"Lord, Fang Zhiwen's 40,000 cavalry took advantage of our army's contraction and defense to drive straight in, which can be said to be extremely bold, but this choice is not as dangerous as imagined, Ruyang is indeed the main road to Yingchuan into Jingzhou. But it is not the only way, our army can also enter Jingzhou by taking Chenxian and Changping, or by taking the southern route of Xinyang. ”

Cao Cao nodded and said, "Yes, because of this, our army did not arrange heavy troops in Ruyang, and now Fang Zhiwen is here." If we mobilize heavy troops to encircle and suppress. ”

"They won't stay there and wait, my lord, we gathered the infantry to encircle and suppress the cavalry, they turned around and ran away, what should we do with the county? And the south of Jingzhou is also"

Xi Zhicai didn't say it explicitly, but Cao Cao naturally knew what Xi Zhicai wanted to say, and after Xi Zhicai reminded Cao Cao last time. Cao Cao has stepped up his intelligence work in the southwest of Jingzhou, and according to the latest intelligence, Liu Bei is indeed actively preparing for the deployment of troops, especially Zhang Feibu, who was not seriously damaged, seems to have a desire to fight with Xiahoudun.

But Cao Cao was still a little unwilling, and wanted to work hard again to see if he could turn the situation in the Central Plains around.

"If we deliberately let out Ruyang, and then surround Fang Zhiwen in turn, we may be able to annihilate No. 1 in one fell swoop

Xi Zhicai was silent, he didn't know how to persuade Cao Cao. This kind of thinking is so out of tune, but Cao Cao is still planning for this seriously, is Fang Zhiwen really stupid enough to defend Ruyang? From Fang Zhiwen's habitual tactics, it can be easily seen that Fang Zhiwen is the most committed to sports warfare, and he never cares about the gains and losses of a city or a place. Instead, it focused on destroying the enemy's living force, and Cao Cao's idea was too naïve.

Cao Cao was silent when he saw the drama, and he was secretly annoyed and embarrassed in his heart, this kind of disdain to refute seemed to be a kind of contempt for Cao Cao, which embarrassed Cao Cao even more than directly refuting it

"Humph! Could it be that Zhicai thinks this strategy can't work? ”

"This Fang Zhiwen has always advocated sports warfare, and does not care about the gains and losses of a city or a place, this matter is known to the world, the lord"

"But I don't know what I am, do I? Is it stupid enough to be that way? Zhicai, is this ridiculing his true appearance? ”

"Don't dare, my subordinates have no such intentions, I just think that Fang Zhiwen is afraid that he will not honestly stay in Ruyang and let our army besiege him."

"Zhicai, you are very smart, but you still know very little about people's hearts! Why did Fang Zhiwen attack Ruyang? ”

Xi Zhicai said in his heart, that is not to warn you and let you quickly pack up and leave the Central Plains, but Xi Zhicai dare not say this! Xi Zhicai suddenly had a sad feeling, when did he start to worry a lot in front of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao seemed to be becoming more and more stubborn, is this caused by authority?

"The subordinates thought that they might be trying to contain the strength of our army from the side and prevent our army from encircling and annihilating Yuan Shao in Qiaoxian with all their might

"That's right, if the prime minister takes the initiative to give up Ruyang, Fang Zhiwen will definitely occupy Ruyang, and then the prime minister will send troops to reinforce Ruyang, intending to recapture the main road to Jingzhou, is this exactly in line with Fang Zhiwen's intentions, if we can transfer our army from Qian County, will Fang Zhiwen deliberately not leave in Ruyang? Then he ordered Yuan Shao to turn around, and formed a battle situation near Ruyang, and the center of the alliance should blossom in the first place1

"This is a real possibility1

"It's not a possibility, it's quite a possibility, it's just that this possibility is based on trust in Yuan Shao, but will Yuan Shao really really cooperate with Fang Zhiwen? Wouldn't he have the idea of a sandpiper and a clam competing for the benefit of the fisherman?! This is human nature, as long as we take advantage of this, we will have the opportunity to annihilate Fang Zhiwen first, and then turn back and destroy Yuan Shao, turning the situation in the Central Plains around in one fell swoop1

Xi Zhicai looked at Cao Cao in surprise, his lips moved, this possibility does exist, but it is only a possibility, but can Xi Zhi say that this possibility does not exist?! To be continued...
