Chapter 519: Liu Bei begs for Jiangdong

Zhang Xiu heard this, and said to himself: "Attack Chen Liu? After thinking for a while, he asked: "If you attack Chen Liu, Cao Cao can send troops from Xuchang to intercept the rear road of our army, and then the grain and grass will be cut off, and our army will be in danger!" Jia Xu heard this, smiled and asked Zhang Xiu: "Didn't the lord forget that there is also a water army!" ”

Zhang Xiu heard this, and the idea of sealing the book was immediately opened, and muttered to himself: "Yes, there is also water and drought!" If the navy army is allowed to transport grain from the Yellow River, it should not be afraid that the Cao army will cut off the rear road of our army. And if the Cao army sends troops from Xuchang to intercept the back road of our army, Gongming can send troops to attack Xuchang, so that the anti-guest will be the main thing, wonderful! ”

Jia Xu saw that Zhang Xiu had figured it out, so he said: "Lord, in addition, you can also use the strategy of filial piety to let Zilong send troops to Hanoi, and the 50,000 thundercloud cavalry led by Zilong plus 30,000 flying feather bow cavalry, these 80,000 cavalry are enough to entangle with Yecheng." Containing Yecheng can ensure that the Yellow River will not be disturbed by the enemy, and our army will not have to worry about food and grass. ”

When Fa Zheng heard this, he clapped his hands and laughed: "In this way, the Nine Roads Army lined up by Zhuge Kongming was stirred up by Wen He. But it was Zhuge Liang's Nine Roads Army that was already known to the world at this time, so Fa Zheng had this to say.

Chen Gong also smiled slightly, nodded and said: "What Xiaozhi said is true, the Central Plains and Hebei war scriptures and this stirring have become a big mess, but Liu Bei in the south has to guard against it." ”

Zhang Xiu heard it, nodded and said, "What the public station said is reasonable!" Liu Bei's army and the king of Wuxi joined forces to enter Shu, and his younger brother Guan Yu and Xu Shu sent troops from Xiangyang to attack Nanyang. Chen Gong heard this, nodded and said, "Gong understands, please rest assured!" Zhang Xiu paused and continued: "Tell Zilong, immediately enter Jizhou, there must be no mistake!"

Zhang Xiu turned his head and said to Zhuge Jin: "Ziyu, you are in charge of grain and grass scheduling in Luoyang. Filial piety, you went to Hanoi, followed Zilong's army to attack Hebei, and now Xiahou Yan and Cheng Yu, who are guarding Yecheng, are not idle people, remember to be careful. The rest of the people, with the general, went to Chen Liu, now Chen Liu has gathered 150,000 Qingxu troops, and the other 50,000 are Zhang Shao's troops, these are the elite of Cao's army, and Cao Cao should break this army first while Cao Cao is not prepared! ”

Zhang Xiu gave an order, and the 40,000 Qiang Hu iron cavalry, together with the 30,000 iron cavalry of Huaxiong's department who had just arrived from Liangzhou, walked out of the Tiger Prison Pass and went straight to Chen Liu. At the same time, Zhao Yun also led 50,000 thundercloud cavalry and 30,000 flying feather 5 cavalry to attack Jizhou, and the two armies marched eastward along the north and south banks of the Yellow River, and the grain and grass of the army were received by Huo Jun's army from the Mengjin mouth north of Luoyang, and transported to the two armies from the Yellow River. Xuchang, Prime Minister's Mansion.

The news of Zhang Shao's defeat and Zhang Xiu's army marching eastward along the north and south banks of the Yellow River came almost simultaneously

At this time, the hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion was terrifyingly quiet, and it could be described as a sound of a needle.

The depressing atmosphere obviously came from Cao Cao, whose face was extremely ugly, Zhang Shao, who was favored by him, lost two games in a row, and in the first battle, Zhang Shao defeated Cao Cao and did not blame him, he changed him there, and he was also commanded like this. The blame can only be blamed on the enemy general Zhang Liao's bravery, and he beheaded Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang in succession, greatly demoralizing the Cao army.

As for the defeat in the second battle, it was not an unforgivable fault in Cao Cao's view. Cao Cao also knew that Zhang Shao's preparation for the Tiger Prison Pass was really more than sufficient, and it was not a lie, you must know that Zhang Xiu had taken the Tiger Prison Pass for more than ten years, and how could the business preparations for more than ten years not be sufficient. In such a situation where such a strong attack could not be taken at all, it was a better strategy to divide the troops to attack Bishui Pass. Unexpectedly, Zhang Liao saw through it, ambushed Gao Lan's department, and Zhang Liao beheaded Gao Lan again. Zhang Liao's two consecutive victories made Cao Cao see that Zhang Liao was not simple.

"Alas......" Cao Cao sighed heavily in the hall and muttered to himself = "Why is there so many generals under Zhang Xiu who can fight well!" Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Tai Shici, Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, who has not been very obvious in this famous spot now, are all so powerful, and that horse! "In the end, Cao Cao gritted his teeth, and it was Cao Cao's great shame to be killed and his robe was cut off." Lord! Just as Cao Cao was angry, the voice of a sick Mei suddenly floated.

When Cao Cao heard this, he didn't need to turn his head, he knew that it was Guo Jia who spoke, and took a deep breath, "After calming down, Cao Cao asked in a condensed voice, "Feng Xiao has something to say."

Guo Jia arched his hand and said: "Lord, now that Zhang Xiu's two armies are out, plus the grain and grass are transported from the Yellow River, I am afraid that Chen will be in danger!" ”

After hearing this, Cao Cao touched his chin and whispered to himself, "Chen Liu? Transporting grain from the Yellow River? Cao Cao sighed for a long time and said: "Zhang Xiu's step is a good step, our army was strong before, and Zhang Xiu's rule was all over the power of our army. However, the two defeats in a row of false righteousness damaged the momentum of our army, Zhang Xiu caught the fighter plane so quickly and sent troops, and it was Chen Liu and Yecheng who attacked, so that the Central Plains and Hebei war situation was thrown into chaos. Zhang Xiu's cavalry is elite, attacking instead of defending, but it is a little numb]! i…… r……

When Guo Jia heard it, Hui said with a smile: "What the lord said is not bad, if what Jia expected is not bad, this should be Jia Wenhe's plan!" This strategy is also comprehensive, and the main weakness of the grain channel has been decided by its use of the water army. Now Zhang Xiu is in a hurry to attack Chen Liu, in order to lead the army of the lord to the north to support, so that Xu Huang of Xingyang can make a fighter. Although Jia Wenhe's strategy is appropriate, but Zhang Xiu's small number of soldiers has always been his weakness, Ye Chengyuan has 300,000 troops under the general's department, and Chen Liu also has 150,000 troops.

Cao Cao heard this, and said suspiciously: "Having said that, how can the fighter plane be so easy to find, and although General Chen Liu has it, there are not many wise and resourceful people. ”

Guo Jia smiled and said: "Why worry about the lord, Tiger Prison, Bishui and Xiangcheng are not the fighters of our army!" As long as one of these three places is broken, Zhang Xiu's defense line will be flawed, and Zhang Xiu will have to retreat when the door is opened. In addition, as long as our army wins one or two battles against Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiujun has to retreat because of the damage to his heart. You must know that the advantage of our army is far greater than that of Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu is only taking advantage of a big victory at this time and is mainly anti-guest, as long as its momentum declines, the opportunity of our army will come. As for the resourceful man, Zhang Xiu's subordinate Jia Wenhe was there, and Jia was willing to go to Chenliu to give advice. ”

Cao Cao nodded when he heard this, what Guo Jia said was not bad, don't look at Zhang Xiu taking the initiative now, but in fact, the advantage is still on Cao Liu's side. Now Zhang Xiu's defense line is stable, and he has no worries about sleeping in the east, but as Guo Jia said, as long as Cao Cao breaks the Tiger Prison, Bishui or Xiangcheng, and breaks one of Zhang Xiu's defense lines, Zhang Xiu will have concerns and need to consider retreating. In addition, as long as Zhang Xiu wins one or two battles, Zhang Xiu can also be forced to retreat. Guo Jia asked the order to go to Chenliu, although it was to fight against Jia Yu, but in fact, he was victorious Zhang Xiu one or two formations. Compared with breaking those three places, it is easier to win Zhang embroidery for a few times.

Cao Cao quickly figured out the key, but asked worriedly: "Fengxiao has just recovered, and he needs to rest more, if he goes to Chen Liu......

Before he finished speaking, Guo Jia chuckled, and the prodigal son was revealed, and said with a smile: "The lord also said that Jiazhi's illness has been cured, and there is no need to fight in front of Chen Liujia." "Walking out of the plan in Xuchang "Walking out of the plan in Chenliu, it is the same, why not go to Chenliu."

Cao Cao heard it, but pointed at Guo Jia and laughed: "This prodigal son ......" laughed, but asked in a condensed voice: "Feng Xiao thinks, who can be in command of Chen Liu's enemy Zhang Xiu?" Guo Jia heard this, and said with a slight smile: "The lord has a candidate in his heart, why bother asking Jia." ”

Cao Cao listened, nodded, and said: "Pass the order, add Zhang Shao as the general of Fudong, and control the 180,000 army of Chenliu County, Zang Ba, Sun Li, Sun Guan, etc. are all under his control, Guo Jia is the military division of the army, and the enemy Zhang Xiu's army!" ”

After a pause, Cao Cao continued to order: "Except for Wen Ruo who stays in Xuchang, the rest of the people will attack Xiangcheng with the prime minister. Ordered Yan Liang and Wen Chou to lead an army of 100,000 as the vanguard, take Xiangcheng first, and the general will arrive later! Let people inform Liu Bei of Jingzhou again, and let him cooperate with our army to attack Zhang Xiu, there must be no mistake!

Later, Li Dian, Yu Ban, Le Jin and other generals, as well as Chi You, Fu Zhu, Liu Yan, Sima Yi and others heard this, and went out together to say: "Promise ......"

Just when the two heroes in the north were preparing to fight, Sun Jian of Chaisang in the south brought in his important civil and military forces to discuss secretly.

Sun Jian's subordinates, in addition to Sun Ce, Sun Quan, Sun Jing and other people of the Sun family, as well as Cheng Pu and Huang Gai, several old generals of Sun Jian, there are also Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Lu Meng, Zhang Zhao, Yu Turn, Bu Fei and others in the hall.

Sun Jian is still as tough as when he was young, and he speaks directly, and he starts to say: "Now that Cao Cao and Liu Bei have joined forces to fight against Zhang Xiu, what do you think our army should do at this time?" ”

Lu Su was the first to bow his hand to Sun Jian, and said first: "Lord, if there are four points today, Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao are the strongest, and the lord is second and Liu Bei again." This time, Liu Bei and Cao attacked Zhang, which has to be said to be a wonderful move, but if Zhang Xiu is defeated, it will not be a good thing for our army. As we all know, Qin took the world, and the strategy of long-distance friendship and close attack made great contributions, and now the way out for our army is only to take Jingzhou to the west and Huainan or Xuzhou to the north, and Cao and Liu are both opponents of our army. This time, Cao Liu can unite to fight Zhang Xiu, and it is difficult to guarantee that he will not unite and ask our army after his big victory, so he thinks that our army should join forces with Zhang Xiu to fight Cao Liu on one side. ”

Among the crowd, Lu Su may not be as good as Zhou Yu in terms of wisdom, but when it comes to the overall strategic situation, Lu Su is not inferior to Zhou Yu, and Western Zhou Yu also knows Lu Su's talent, and as a friend, he naturally wants to give Lu Su a chance to perform.

Sun Jian heard it, but he frowned and said: "This Hou Sun Jian is Wu Hou, I didn't mention it before, and now I have contacted Zhang Xiu many times before, intending to work together to take Jingzhou, but Zhang Xiu didn't ......respond to it" Sun Jian didn't speak when he said this, but the meaning was obvious, Zhang Xiu ignored it when he wanted to take Jingzhou before, and now Zhang Xiu is in danger, he will immediately help, which is inevitably greater than a good person.

Lu Su heard this, and said with a smile: "Of course, the lord doesn't need to take action immediately, let Zhang Xiu and Cao Liu join forces to fight, and wouldn't it be as our army wishes." Su means that the lord should choose a place, or to the west, or to the north, when Cao Liu is exhausted, the lord can immediately attack from the back only to seize one of them, the lord will no longer be trapped in Jiangdong, and the Central Plains is expected! ”

When Sun Jian heard this, he nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "What Zijing said is reasonable, and that Zijing thinks it is better to take it." ”

Lu Su smiled slightly and replied: "Now that Yizhou is in the hands of Zhang Xiu, it is unlikely that the lord wants to take Jing in the west and Yilian into a line. Hefei is in the hands of the lord, whether it is to the north to take Huainan or to the west to take Jingzhou, the result is to solve the Jiangdong dilemma, can enter the Central Plains. Therefore, it is necessary to choose an easy place to attack. As for the march and battle, the lord should ask Gong Jin.

Sun Jian nodded, looked at Zhou Yu, only to see Zhou Yu arch his hand, and said: "Lord, although Cao Cao is now marching west to Zhang Xiu, there is still Cao Ren's army in Huainan, and with the plot of Xi Zhong, it is not easy for Cao Ren to hold on to Shouchun and our army to take Huainan." Moreover, our army is all in step years, and now although we have received Shanyue and let Shanyue people enlist in the army, so that our army's combat strength has been enhanced, land warfare is still the disadvantage of our army. It's Jingzhou, since Cai Mao's death, Jingzhou's navy has collapsed, Liu Bei has entered Shu all the way, and the army has attacked Nanyang, and the accumulation of Jingzhou during Liu Biao's period has been consumed by Liu Bei, Yu thinks that when the Ningji takes Jingzhou, Jingzhou cares, and the river defense is solid, even Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao dare not despise my Jiangdong! ”

Sun Jian touched his chin and nodded: "What Gong Jin said is reasonable, but although Liu Bei went west to conquer Zhang Xiu, he also left heavy troops to guard Jiangxia, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to take it down for a while." ”

Sun Ce opened his mouth and said: "Don't worry, father, the child will personally lead the troops and will definitely bring Jiangxia!" ”

Sun Jian heard it, and praised: "My son is brave and knows for his father." ”

At this time, Sun Quan on the side suddenly arched his hand and said, "Father, the child has something to report." ”

Sun Jian saw that Sun Quan, who had always been quiet, was talking, so he smiled and said, "What's the matter with Wu'er?"

Sun Quan replied: "Father, Liu Bei has not seen any children in Chunyi today. ”

Sun Jian heard it and said curiously: "Yiyi? Why didn't he come to Jiangdong to see Ben Hou first?

Sun Quan smiled bitterly and said, "He asked for something on behalf of Liu Bei, but it was inconvenient to see his father immediately, so he came to see the child first." Sun Jian heard this and wondered: "What does Liu Bei ask for?" ”

Sun Quan smiled bitterly again and said, "Yi Yiyun Liu Bei lost his wife earlier, but he hoped to marry his little sister as his wife, so as to consolidate the alliance between the two parties. ”

"Bastard!" As soon as Sun Quan finished speaking, Sun Jian slapped the desk heavily, and then scolded bitterly: "Liu Bei, this guy is the same generation as Ben Hou, and he wants to marry my daughter as his wife" It's really ridiculous in the world! What a bastard! ”

Sun Jian's anger was also expected by Sun Quan, he was also furious when he first heard it, but he could only smile bitterly at it. "Bang 111111"

A loud noise came, and everyone looked back, but they saw Sun Ce kicking the desk to the ground, and was about to walk out of the hall, shouting at the same time: "Where is that Yiyi, wait for a certain person to cut him down first, and send the head back to Liu Bei!" ”!
