Zhuge Liang pondered for a moment, and then said: "The subordinates came back this time just for this matter, and they are going to discuss it with the lord." ”

"Whether it's Sun Quan or Zhou Yu, to put it bluntly, they didn't take Zhang Fan in their eyes at all, what they wanted was to let him and Cao Cao lose both, and then they would decide whether to send troops."

"The lord is right, while Cao Cao is attacking Xinye, we can land from Wulin Port and attack Xinye."

"Even without Jiangdong's help, our current strength is enough to deal with it."

"Just ......"

Zhuge Liang said this and said no more.

When Liu Bei heard that he could send troops, he was naturally excited, and hurriedly asked, "Do you have any concerns?" ”

If there is a problem, we will solve the problem, as long as we can send troops, that is good.

Although Zhuge Liang has been wrong many times, who else can he trust now.

He always believes that Zhuge Liang has great wisdom and is stronger than him.

"Lord, it's Simbi!"

"Simbi? What happened to him? Liu Bei asked with a puzzled expression.

Zhuge Liang didn't hesitate, and said directly: "It stands to reason that Zhang Fan is powerless to fight against us and others, and he should come to really win over, and the worst thing is the Cold War, so send some heavy troops to guard it." ”

"However, he sent the sharp-toothed Xinbi and the heads of the two ladies to humiliate the lord, with a posture of longing for the lord to send troops immediately."

"This, let his subordinates worry, could it be some ploy of Zhang Fan."

Liu Bei is naturally close to Zhu Zhechi, understands some strategies, thinks for a moment, and says: "Could it be, this is exactly his suspicious strategy?" ”

"Is it to make us mistakenly think that he is ready and only waiting for us to attack, so that we can be worried and dare not send troops easily?"

Zhuge Liang felt a sense of impressedness, and looked at Liu Bei and said with a smile: "This possibility is very high." ”

"In that case, everything is up to the Lord."

"No matter what, Liang naturally spares no effort and tries his best to break the enemy, even if he is ready, Liang has a foolproof plan."

Good guy, these words have been said, how can Liu Bei have any concerns, and immediately ordered the troops.

In this way, the 30,000 troops newly levied by Jiangxia were taken away by Zhuge Liang, accompanied by Guan Yu, Liu Qi and other generals.

This time, Liu Bei did not go, also because Jiangxia needed someone to hold on and stabilize the rear.

……

On the one hand, someone is attacking Xinye, and on the other hand, someone is attacking Wulin, but what is Zhang Fan doing at this time?

Without hurry, he led an army of 100,000 and went straight to Xinye.

In a few days, Jia Xu will definitely be able to hold on, and he will be able to reach the territory of Xinye this evening.

At that time, maybe under Jia Xu's strategy, there will be a big break in Cao's army.

It's a pity......

When Zhang Fan led the army into Xinye, Cao Cao still did not launch any attack, and had been stationed thirty miles outside the city.

This evening.

Jia Xu led, Huang Zhong, Wen Ping and other generals to the City Lord's Mansion.

"I'll wait to see my lord!"

"Well, let's all get up."

Zhang Fan is most fortunate that he still has some famous generals in this new field.

Regardless of the others, Huang Zhong alone is enough.

And Wen Ping, naturally, is not inferior, he defeated Guan Yu several times in history, and repelled Sun Quan's attack, so he can be said to be an excellent commander who led his troops to fight.

Even if Huang Zhong was under his command, he didn't feel anything wrong.

Then!

Appreciative eyes, constantly looking at the number of them, think about it, this Xinye is really valued by him, and there are so many elite soldiers arranged here alone.

"Wenhe, you said that Cao Cao arrived outside this Xinye City early, why didn't he launch an attack for a long time?"

Zhang Fan couldn't help but ask Jia Xu.

Jia Xu didn't think about it, and smiled directly: "Cao Cao is suspicious by nature, and the world knows it. ”

"If you don't directly attack Xinye now, you are naturally afraid of the horror of the lord."

"In addition, he must also want to see who else is ordered to crusade against the lord."

When Zhang Fan heard this, he also laughed, "In this way, I want to thank Cao Cao for that holy decree." ”

"I just don't know who will come to attack."

"Before, I was afraid that Liu Bei would not come, so I gave him a generous gift."

Speaking of this, Wen Ping's face was puzzled, and he couldn't help but ask: "Lord, we are already overstretched just to deal with Cao Cao, why do we have to thank him?" ”

"If the princes from all walks of life come to attack, I'm afraid that Jingzhou will not be protected."

He said this not because he was ignorant, but because everyone would think like this, Huang Zhong was like this, and so was Huo Jun.

At this time, they all looked at Zhang Fan with curious eyes.

Zhang Fan still had an indifferent smile and said, "I don't know General Wen, what do you think of the soldiers I handed over to you?" ”

"Presumably, after such a long time, you have also learned a lot, right?"

For such a long time, Zhang Fan has sent troops here more than once, although most of them are first-order, but after a long time of training, there have been many soldiers who have advanced.

This was something that Zhang Fan didn't expect before, it turned out that the people here could actually help him advance by training system soldiers.

That's why he keeps delivering.

At present, the strength of Jingzhou is not counting what Zhang Fan brought this time, and there are already 30,000 archers and 10,000 pikemen.

As for the ranks, there are 10,000 second-order archers, that is, longbowmen, and the remaining 20,000 are shortbowmen.

Pikemen, with 5,000 halberd soldiers, and the rest are first-order longbowmen.

And at this time!

After hearing Zhang Fan's question, Wen Ping's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Lord, my subordinates have long wanted to ask, how did the lord train such a strong elite soldier." ”

"They have high talent and a good foundation, and their original strength is not bad, but after the day and night training of their subordinates, they are now almost pulled out to fight."

"At this moment, the subordinates are eager to go out of the city directly to face the battle, but unfortunately the lord does not allow it."

"Don't look at Cao Cao, he has hundreds of thousands of troops, only these 40,000, and his subordinates have the confidence to break Cao's army."

As soon as he was excited, Wen Ping directly said a lot of things without concealment, and Zhang Fan was naturally very happy after hearing it.

After all, who wouldn't want to listen to such good words.

Moreover, Zhang Fan at this moment, not to mention, he was really moved.

First, he brought another 100,000 spear guards, although the grades are all first-order pikemen, but there are still 40,000 here, and no one can say whether they can compete with Cao Cao head-on.

As for the dead and wounded, he didn't think much about it.

There are no immortals in war, and it is necessary to sacrifice this point for the sake of unification.

Second, he needs a large number of copper coins to resurrect Zhao Zhe, the guy who calls him his heart.

Of course, he has calmed down, and naturally he will not suddenly have the urge to be hot-headed.

After all, if he could break the enemy with minimal casualties, he would naturally not choose hard steel.
