Chapter 132: Two Han Clans
Cao Cao's biggest worry was that his subordinates would not be able to do their work, and he was afraid of Guan Yu's strength and refused to rescue Jiangling.
But he received a military report from Lejin, saying that Cai Mao had dispatched troops and made a military order, which must protect the safety of Jiangling, let Jiangling be firmly rooted in the hinterland of Jingnan like a nail, and let Sun Liu never live in peace.
This made Cao Cao stunned, He couldn't help but walk out of the mansion, looked at the sun was indeed in the east, and pulled his beard, then he couldn't help but shake his head.
"Weird, weird. It's really weird, Cai Mao's house is not exhausted, why is this? โ
Wang Bi smiled bitterly and said:
"Hey, Cai Mao must have felt that Liu Bei would not let him go if he became bigger, so he surrendered in advance, so attentively.
Person...... Hey, damn it. โ
From Wang Bi's point of view, the Jiangnan part of Jingzhou is now completely necessary to be defended.
Leaving a Xiangyang as the fulcrum to the south and the barrier to the north, all other places were withdrawn to Jiangbei, so as to reduce the loss of soldiers as much as possible, Cao Cao also knew that this method of using troops was more in line with the right way of the art of war, and it was very suitable for the current situation.
But he is now a very popular minister, coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, in essence, he has completely turned his face with the Son of Heaven.
If he can't go further in the position of prime minister, when he dies, there will always be unvirtuous descendants in the Cao family, and the Han will definitely liquidate his current sins, even if it is not ordered by the Son of Heaven, those who are loyal to the Han will also do it.
Further, sufficient merit is required.
Since the unification of the First Emperor, the concept of great unification has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
If Cao Cao can't even sweep away the Liuhe Eight Desolations, what face will replace the Han Dynasty, which has stood for 400 years.
Now Sun Quan has been attacking Hefei for a long time, Liu Bei is far from becoming a climate, the most critical Xiangyang and Jiangling in Jingzhou are still in the hands of Cao Jun, as long as he recovers his vitality and takes another step, he can still directly put the army on the battlefield in Jingzhou through Xiangyang and Jiangling, and once again attack Sun Liu, who is more tenacious than any previous enemy, with the posture of Mount Tai.
This made him reluctant to give up.
Very reluctant.
"Let's see how Cai Mao is first.
If he can really do something, Lone will not hesitate to reward him.
Jingzhou ...... Jingzhou ......"
Cao Cao's eyes were quite hot, and he didn't know how to describe this hot land for a while.
I hope Cai Mao didn't lie to him this time.
ยท
Le Jin was worried about Cai Mao's tricks at first, but he never expected that Cai Mao was really attentive and took out his treasured elite sailors.
The Jingzhou Navy sailed with thousands of sails, and the army went down the Han River, and Le Jin was also quite hot to see, and he wanted to board the ship to participate in the battle together.
But he was still stopped by Ma Liang.
Ma Liang said that Lejin is the lord of Jingzhou, and he must not move without permission, and if he does it, it will be dangerous.
As a very literate martial artist, what Lejin should do now is to play chess, drink, and talk with the celebrities in the city every day in Xiangyang, and must not be too intoxicated with war, which can make people feel that Lejin is unfathomable and lightweight.
Lejin is as good as a stream, saying that he accepts Ma Liang's suggestion, and everything depends on Cai Mao's performance.
Dangyang is in the north of Jiangling, not near the river, when Liu Bei was defeated at Changbanpo outside Dangyang, and fled all the way east all night before running to the river.
Guan Yu has been cruising in the Jingcheng area by the river, not allowing Cao's reinforcements to go ashore from the Han River, the Han Jingzhou Mu, Zhennan General Cai Mao immediately made a decision, personally commanded the army, the governor Yunshan and Cao Pi led the army down the Han River, and rushed to the Jingcheng area with great momentum, it depends on whether Guan Yu dares to confront him.
Guan Yu's men are said to have 10,000 people, but they only have a few hundred boats, and they can't really fight, and they have a great disadvantage.
Seeing that Cai Mao actually led tens of thousands of sailors over, Guan Yujun saw that the position of the water flow was not good, so he could not launch a fire attack, so he could only fight and retreat.
Cai Mao laughed, he waved the command flag, his subordinates shook the sky, Yunshan and Huo Jun each led the big ships to surround them, making a gesture of wanting to eat the entire army of Guan Yu's army, Guan Yu had no choice but to order the generals to run quickly in the direction of Xiakou and give up the defense of Jingcheng.
As soon as Cai Mao made a move, he easily defeated Guan Yu of the Absolute North Dao!
This made Cao Jun thunderous with joy, Guan Ping, Huo Jun and others shouted General Wansheng, and Cai Maozhi was full of glory when he heard it. Although Cao Pi and Cao Zhi didn't like Cai Mao, they also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Dare to ask the general, why don't we chase after me?" Cao Pi saw that Guan Yu was far away, and he was a little anxious in his heart, so he hurriedly asked Cai Mao.
Cai Mao snorted: "General Yun said to chase or not." โ
Guan Ping smiled:
"General Cai is the pastor of Jingzhou, why do you want to ask me about this? In my opinion, it is okay to chase it or not.
If General Cai chases, we will lead the naval army to Xiakou to fight Guan Yu, if not, we will go to save Dangyang and join Man Boning.
Zihuan Gongzi is well versed in the art of war, I don't know what to teach me? โ
The old man and the young man didn't say anything, and gently kicked the ball back to Cao Pi's feet, but Cao Pi didn't notice it, and there was a hint of self-satisfaction on his face.
As Zhong Da said.
As long as I can command the army, with my identity, even Cai Mao and Le Jin have to obediently listen to my orders, and I will decide the credit for this battle.
However, when it came time to make a decision, Cao Pi was a little hesitant.
Repel Guan Yu this time, if he doesn't chase it, he will definitely come back another day, and when the time comes, he will still attack the rear baggage and cut off the Han River, and the credit for this report is not greater than the repelling Guan Yu reported by Zijian before.
If you chase ......
Guan Yu has 10,000 people under his command, and the area around Xiakou is their base camp, and there may be reinforcements from Sun Quan, it seems that it is not easy to deal with without a large army, before Uncle Zixiao's 30,000 people went to attack Xiakou It was not a big loss, and the whole army was almost wiped out.
He was entangled like this for a long time, but he still gritted his teeth hatefully:
"How about I divide the troops?"
Guan Ping raised his eyebrows and praised:
"Childe is really clever, I think this method of dividing troops is excellent."
Cai Mao's face also showed a look of sudden realization, and she praised it in a timely manner:
"What does the little general think is good about this method?"
Guan Ping Road:
"Gongzi Zihuan must want me to lead my troops to chase after Guan Yu to prevent Guan Yu from going and returning.
Gongzi and Cai Yuanjun were stationed in Xiangyang to join the Manchu generals and suppress the gangsters in Jiangling.
This method has a degree of advance and retreat, and it has the spirit of a general, which is really powerful! โ
Cai Mao also suddenly realized and praised:
"Yes, these people under Guan Yu are all elites of a hundred battles, and General Yun's elite in Shiyang is also quite good.
If Guan Yu dares to lead the crowd to fight hard, he is only afraid that more than 10,000 people will lose most of them, if he doesn't dare to fight hard, how can he cut off the North Road? โ
"When the Gangneung thieves heard that our army had arrived, they would be frightened, and the siege of Gangneung would naturally be lifted.
Zihuan Gongzi...... Uh, that's what Childe Zihuan should think, right? โ
Cai Mao and Guan Ping's two pairs of curious eyes stared at Cao Pi's face.
Cao Pi was stunned for a long time and slapped his thigh suddenly.
"The two generals have won my heart! It is worthy of being the humerus of the Han family, the pillar of our army! โ
Everyone laughed, and Cai Mao immediately ordered the generals to go ashore, leaving only Yunshan, Huo Jun and others to continue to search and guard Guan Yu along the river.
When he went ashore, Guan Ping suddenly had an idea:
"Yes, it's better to ask Zihuan Gongzi to write a military newspaper by himself."
"Oh? Why is that? Cai Mao said just right.
"Before, Zijian Gongzi only reported the results of the battle, and the prime minister and the princes of the court and the central government did not necessarily believe it.
Zihuan Gongzi wrote down the original version of this design method and submitted it first, first, to let the prime minister feel relieved, and secondly, to let the prime minister see the talent of the son's leadership. When the news of our army's relief spreads, the prime minister will definitely applaud Childe's attack - Childe should think the same way, right? โ
Cao Pi was stunned, and slapped his thigh again, although he grinned in pain, his face still showed a fanatical attitude:
"Not bad, not bad! That's how it should be! โ
Cao Pi is open-minded, and can maintain a good relationship with Chen Lin, who scolded his father, and Jia Xu, who killed his brother-in-law, and naturally he will not have a great bad feeling for Cai Mao.
They have clearly expressed their allegiance to me, and it seems that this battle must be going extremely well.
Soon after, I was the hero who repelled Guan Yu, pacified Jingzhou, and rescued Uncle Zixiao, even if my father liked Zijian, he had to ...... Hum!
"By the way, there's one more thing." Cai Mao said, "Youchang is Ji Chang's younger brother, if he is in Tanzhi's army, outsiders are afraid that they will say that Youchang's credit is that Tanzhi deliberately gave him profits."
It's better to train under Cao Gongzi, so that he can learn how to fight, so that he can serve the prime minister in the future. โ
Guan Yu smiled and said:
"That's what I mean, I read military books since I was a child, but I just lack an opportunity to practice.
Cao Gongzi has been fighting since he was a child, and the method of using soldiers is quite old-fashioned, if he advances with his children, it should be a happy event! โ
"Clams?" Cao Pi was already very happy today, but now he laughed even more, raised his eyebrows, and slapped his thigh a few times.
"Okay, good, good, there are two generals with one heart, why worry about the thieves if they don't get rid of them, why worry about the big thing!"
Cao Pi danced excitedly, and turned his head to look for Ma Yan.
Seeing that Cao Pi's temperament was so interesting, Guan Ping couldn't help but shake his head and said softly:
"Zihuan Gongzi is also a proper person, shouldn't I wait for him to be designed like this?"
Cai Mao snorted:
"We're helping him too, and he has to thank us!"
Cao Zhi watched his brother dancing excitedly from a distance, and suddenly thought of himself not long ago.
When he first came to Jingzhou, he also felt that the heroes of the world were nothing more than that, and he should be the same as Cao Pi now.
The so-called celebrity posture, the so-called graceful bearing, turned out to be so ridiculous and ignorant in the eyes of outsiders.
Although he didn't know what Cao Pi would face, Cao Zhi suddenly had a thought in his heart.
I'm afraid this battle won't go so smoothly.
Soon Cao Pi will follow in his footsteps.
That's right, he believes in this very much!
