Chapter 462: Cao Cao's Decision
The battle continued, and the battle between Xiahou and Xia Hou became more and more intense, and the sound of weapons intersecting came and went, becoming more and more harsh.
At the end of the fight, it was obvious that Xiahoudun had the upper hand, and the two used melee weapons to fight, Xiahoudun had a lot of chances of winning, as long as he didn't make a mistake, he basically wouldn't lose.
However, Xiahou Yuan is not easy to mess with, find an opportunity, make a big jump, and get out of the battlefield in an instant.
He threw the spear in his hand at Xiahoudun and forced him to retreat.
took out the bow and arrow in the package, and aimed at Xiahoudun is an arrow.
The sound of an eagle's roar came from the arrows, like an eagle starting to fight the enemy.
This is Xiahou Yuan's exclusive archery skill, killing eagle arrows.
As soon as this arrow came out, it directly changed the tide of the battle and made Xiahoudun's advantage come to naught.
Looking at the arrows that were fired, Xiahoudun yelled "Okay"
The spear in his hand flew in all directions like a dragon, and the churning air twisted, and an invisible barrier formed around him, slowly resisting the arrows.
But Xiahou Yuan's arrows were not so easy to resist, even if Xiahou Yuan attacked hard, he only reduced the speed of the arrow's flight, and still flew straight towards him.
"Hah, look at my dark blow." The angry roar turned into power, and a pitch-black scene appeared on Xiahoudun's body, which was the opening of his exclusive skill.
The skill second only to the ultimate, instantly made the arrow unable to find his trace, because the vicinity of Xiahoudun was already pitch black.
The sound of an arrow stabbing the ground was heard.
Everyone in the main hall looked at the arrows together, and saw that there was no trace of the arrows, only a dark hole, and everyone gasped when they saw this scene.
Xiahou Yuan's arrow actually shot into the ground, you must know that this hall is where the original palace is, although some materials are missing now, but the defense is still there, and it is difficult for ordinary people to destroy, but I didn't expect Xiahou Yuan's attack to be so strong.
Xia Hou Yuan didn't pay attention to everyone's inhalation, his eyes were focused on the darkness, he knew that this was Xiahou Yuan's exclusive skill, a magic skill specially used to dodge a single skill, because in that darkness he could move as he wanted.
And it's teleportation, as long as it's not a group skill, you can't kill him at all.
But what Xiahou Yuan lacks is group attacks, most of his skills are single attacks, and the power of group skills is insufficient, and it is wishful thinking to kill Xiahou Yuan.
So the battle situation was once again confusing, which made everyone in the hall pinch a cold sweat.
Cao Cao was very happy when he saw this, and even drank a few more glasses of wine, and his face was flushed.
"Fengxiao, is the land of Qizhou still stable now?" As if drunk, Cao Cao asked.
Hearing Cao Cao's question, Guo Jia did not answer immediately, but glanced at the three princes before speaking.
"Well, almost, some sincere surrenderers are helping, and some insincere ones are also helping." Ambiguous words came out of Guo Jia's mouth.
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall was silent again, and even the battle between the two generals below was not watched, waiting to listen to the conversation between Cao Cao and the two.
"In this way, then I'll rest assured, by the way, what's going on in Jingzhou?" Cao Cao asked again.
"It's still the same, the alliance between Liu Bei and Sun Quan is getting closer and closer, and the army is getting more and more elite, not a bone to gnaw." Feng Xiao said with emotion.
His words, except for Cao Cao, were all surprised, but I didn't expect Guo Jia to also value others, when working together, Guo Jia opposed Cao Cao's suggestion more than once, and every time he could persuade Cao Cao to change his mind.
And disdain for other people, only those who value it will look the other way.
It seems that there are capable people in Jingzhou, otherwise he wouldn't have said that.
"Oh, have you found out about Xu Shu?" Nodding, Cao Cao saw it again.
It can be said that he is the only one watching the battle between the two Xiahou now, and the others are all pretending.
"It's clear, but it's useless, it seems that someone told him in advance and made him ready, it's really boring." Guo Jia closed his eyes, leaned back in his chair, and muttered in reply.
Then the two continued to answer questions, explaining the deployment of troops, the transfer of grain and grass, etc., one by one, which was a reminder to many ministers.
No matter how strong the enemy is, they are not afraid, as long as there is a strong army and he Cao Cao is present, they will not fail.
Afterwards, because the battle between Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan lasted too long and could not be divided for a long time, Cao Cao was angry and sentenced the two to a tie.
This made Cao Ang and Cao Zhang unhappy, because Cao Pi won again, which made the two unhappy.
But the two of them did not dare to openly trouble Cao Pi, because that would only disappoint Cao Cao and deprive them of their inheritance.
It's just that Cao Pi, who guessed it, was not in a good mood, and the eyes of the two brothers were very scary.
On the third day, the new year came again, and this time, the whole world trembled, because all the princes began to provoke the Nian Beast, and countless tasks were released for the players to drive away the Nian Beast and add to their heritage.
Every time they defeat the Year Beasts, they can get good things from the sacrifice to the sky, from artifacts to top-quality materials, auxiliary skills, everything.
For example, Cao Cao has obtained the skill bonus of cloud and rain abundance, the weather will be normal within half a year, and there will be no bad climate, which is the most suitable skill for recuperation, as soon as this skill comes out, the people's hearts in Cao Cao's territory skyrocketed instantly, and even other things such as morale are slowly improving.
Because the rear is worry-free, the fighters in the front can fight with confidence.
The sacrifices of several other princes are also good, such as Liu Bei's soldiers are strong and strong, and the effect of training soldiers is tripled in half a year, that is, it reduces the time and cost of training soldiers, which is the best helper to expand combat effectiveness.
What Sun Quan gained was speed. Everything in the territory within half a year will be increased by 50% of the action speed and 50% of the physical exertion.
It can make the combat effectiveness of any army soar, because absolute speed is also one of the magic weapons to win.
As for Youzhou, because Li Yi is no longer there, he has not received material rewards, only a lot of prestige, but because it is not the first time to defeat the Year Beast, he has only gained tens of billions of prestige, and some small gifts, what fruits that increase attributes, and pills that increase experience, although it is not very unusual, but it is not bad.
After getting Xiaowei's information, Li Yi was very satisfied, as long as there was a prestige reward, he could give up the rest.
When the first month of the year passes, and into February, the whole world falls into silence.
Because Cao Cao began to mobilize troops on a large scale, he began to gather a large number of cavalry from Liangzhou, and more than 300 million cavalry began to move in the direction of Sili.
As for the three eastern states, they began to mobilize a large number of foot soldiers, and more than one billion foot soldiers began to enter Qingzhou, and there was a great tendency to take Yuzhou in one fell swoop.
This made Liu Bei and Sun Quan nervous, and their armies were also gathering all the time.
Liu Bei mobilized an army of 500 million from Yizhou and headed towards the border of Jingzhou, seeing that the momentum was about to enter the division.
As for Sun Quan, he mobilized an army of more than one billion and headed towards Yuzhou to fight Cao Cao to the death.
Because the forces of the two were separated, although they could not unify their combat effectiveness, they were more dangerous to Cao Cao.
In order to deal with the attack of the two, Cao Cao had to divide his troops, but if he divided his troops, it was unknown whether he could defeat them.
Judging from the current newspaper, Cao Cao has two top strategists, two top generals, plus 2 billion troops, 300 million at the border of Liangzhou, 500 million in Sili, and 1.2 billion in Qingzhou, which are divided into three parts, which has a great impact on Yizhou, Jingzhou, and Yuzhou.
In terms of the Sun-Liu coalition army, there is one top strategist and four top generals, with a total strength of 1.5 billion.
500 million in Jingzhou, 1 billion in Yuzhou, and as for Yangzhou, Yizhou, a certain number of troops were left as reserves.
As soon as the tense transfer of troops began, there was no way back, countless grain and grass began to gather, a large number of weapons began to forge the necessary military supplies, and the spears with handles were bundled and transported towards the front line, and bows and arrows were pulled forward like hills.
As for the war horse, it is like the ocean, swept in.
After a brief meeting in Luoyang Chennei, Cao Cao determined the target of the attack, that is, Yuzhou, and after taking Yuzhou, he launched a general attack on Jingzhou.
The strength of Liangzhou is to contain the army of Yizhou, and the remaining troops of Yuzhou are stationed there to prevent the discovery of a crisis.
The battle plan has been decided, even in terms of candidates, except for a few people who stayed in Luoyang, all the strategists rushed to the battlefield to end this troubled world with battle.
After the meeting, Cao Cao found Guo Jia for a new round of discussions.
"Bonghyo, who can be my heir, if I fail, who can take on the heavy responsibility and complete my unfinished dream." Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia with a serious face.
I hope to get his answer, from Guo Jia's mouth, you can hear a different voice.
This is about his future development, and once the heir is determined, it will surround him from now on.
"The lord is in such a hurry? Do you feel like you're going to fail? Or is it something else? Guo Jia asked three questions in a row.
These questions made Cao Cao calm down, think carefully for a while, and say the answer.
"Yes, I don't know if I can defeat that person, I'm afraid, fighting with him, I feel extremely relieved, but against him, I don't dare to win." For the first time, Cao Cao spoke his mind.
This was the first time he didn't know how to do it, but what Cao Cao didn't see was that Guo Jia was also confused.
It seems that Cao Cao's words made him also addicted to it, and he didn't know how to do it.
After half a ring, the two came back to their senses together and looked each other in the eyes.
"Lord, since this is the case, then I don't choose, let the three of them divide the victory and defeat through the battle, the victorious person, or the living person can inherit the lord's hegemony, the loser has no chance, this is the best test, only in this way can you defeat that person." Guo Jia sighed and said stupidly.
Hearing Guo Jia's words, Cao Cao also made up his mind to let the three princes fight, since the soldiers were divided into three ways, let the three go all the way to see who was more capable and the stronger one became his heir.
