Guandu, inside Cao Ying.

Cao Cao looked at the letter from Jingzhou, his cheeks, which were originally quite happy, instantly became gloomy, and he was happy because of Xu Huang's successful sneak attack on Yuan Shao's military rations.

In the blink of an eye, bad news came from Jingzhou.

"Lord, what's happened in Jingzhou?" Guo Jia frowned and asked.

"Liu Biao's idiot, sitting on an army of 100,000, but letting the Chu army occupy Jiangxia so easily, is really stupid!" Cao Cao crumpled the letter into a ball and said angrily.

"Jiang Xia lost?" Guo Jia was surprised.

Cao Cao's face was gloomy and he did not speak.

Although Chu Feng is now a general of the Han Dynasty, Cao Cao knows that this will be the biggest opponent, even more than Yuan Shao in front of him, and the faster Chu Feng develops, the more panicked he becomes.

"My lord, Jingzhou Liu Biao is old, and his military power is down, although he has an army of 100,000, he can't wave his arms like an arm, not to mention, Jingzhou's soldiers and horses have been sparse for a long time, and they are by no means the opponent of the Chu army."

"I'm worried, Jingzhou Liu Biao can't bear the pressure! After all, Chu Feng is a descendant of the Yuan family, the fourth and third dukes, and it is difficult for Liu Biao to block the offensive of the Chu army. ”

Guo Jia frowned, and said solemnly.

"Is there a solution?" Cao Cao asked in a deep voice.

"No, our army is mainly focused on repelling Yuan Shao at the moment, and we don't have the energy to manage Chu Feng, and we don't dare to force it." Guo Jia waved his hand helplessly.

"Lord, our army needs to be deployed in advance, I'm afraid it's too late!" Xun You's eyes narrowed, with solemnity in his eyes, it was worry.

"What do you mean?" Cao Cao asked.

"Lord, originally our army repelled Yuan Shao, and the Chu army needed to send troops from Hefei, and it would still take hundreds of miles, so that our army still had room for maneuver and would not be defeated,"

"But if Chu Feng takes Jingzhou, then Xu will be under his blade, and there will be no danger to rely on. At that time, even if our army defeated Yuan Shao, it would only be a wedding dress for Chu Feng. ”

Xun Yu shook his head and said in a deep voice.

Cao Cao nodded vigilantly, Nanyang was too close to Xu Du, if Chu Feng really took Jingzhou, he would be within his attack range,

You must know that Chu Feng is not Liu Biao.

Chu Feng is ambitious in the world, and Liu Biao is a disciple.

"What do you think?" Cao Cao asked in a deep voice.

"Move the capital!" Xun Yu said loudly.

"Although Xudu has developed for several years, the city is high and the walls are thick, but under the enemy's front, how can we talk about safety?"

"Moving the capital? Where to move? Cao Cao frowned.

"Guanzhong, the old capital of Chang'an, Guanzhong has countless fertile fields, which can support millions of people, and now in October, the order is to forcibly relocate part of the part, and Guanzhong will be able to spring ploughing in the coming year."

"And there are several advantages to this move,"

"First, Guanzhong is sitting on the danger of four passes, and it is impossible for the Chu army to enter it, but Wuguan can lead to Nanyang, Hangu Pass can lead to the Central Plains, and it can be attacked and retreated!"

"Second, Guanzhong can take Liangzhou in the west, sitting on the strongest iron cavalry, and Hanzhong and Yizhou in the south, enjoying the country of abundance, and it can also be attacked, retreated, and defended."

"Third, if our army wins this battle, we can defend Chu Feng and Xuchang, Ping Hebei, dispatch and Luoyang, and then take Chu Feng with the general trend of the world. If you lose, you won't be defeated! ”

Xun You said in a deep voice.

He had already planned this matter, but Chu Feng only had Yangzhou before, and the threat was not great, but if Jingzhou was really lost, it would probably be too late to move the capital again.

Cao Cao pondered in his heart, and said with some hesitation: "Gongda, although this plan is good, but now that he is fighting a decisive battle with Yuan Shao, will the relocation of the people in the rear shake the morale of the army at this moment?" ”

"It's inevitable!"

"Lord, those who do big things should not be informal, the advantages of moving the capital outweigh the disadvantages, of course, there is no hurry to move the capital, and the relocation must begin, so as not to delay the spring ploughing in the coming year."

Xun Yu made a gesture and admonished.

"Relocation? But when the time comes, won't the common people have more complaints? Cao Cao frowned, migrating the common people is not easy to do.

"The lord is too worried, Chen Liu, Yingchuan, Chen Guo and other places are all over the family, and the people are almost all tenant farmers, struggling to survive.

On the other hand, Guanzhong has experienced the rebellions of Han Sui, Dong Zhuo, Li Guo and so on, and has long been thousands of miles of red land, with no one for hundreds of miles, a lot of fertile land has not been cultivated, and a lot of houses have not been inhabited.

The lord only had to promise the migrating people 200 acres of fertile land each, and I am sure that they would run faster than the soldiers! Xun You said with a chuckle.

Hearing Xun You's suggestion, Cao Cao's eyes lit up, this attention is good, you know, the common people are really not as good as dogs these days!

A household can be divided into 200 acres, which is not a small amount, I am afraid that it is really with Xun You, and those who are soldiers may not be able to catch up!

"Just do it, immediately write to Xun Yu to arrange the migration, write to Zhong Xuan, and ask him to arrange for the people to settle down, and he must dare to complete it before the cold winter, it must be fast."

Cao Cao said in a deep voice.

"No!" Guo Jia nodded.

————

Jian'an for four years,

Early winter, mid-October.

Under Cao Cao's rule, the people of several counties began to migrate, as Xun You said, most of the people heard that each household in Guanzhong had 200 acres of fertile land, and the legs and feet were called a Lisuo.

You know, what is the concept of 200 acres of fertile land?

It's like if you have a monthly income of 3,000 now, let you change places, you directly earn 20,000 a month, as long as the cerebellum is developed enough, most of them still know how to choose.

In the early stage, the relocation of democracy was in the three counties of Hanoi, Henan, and Yingchuan.

In addition to the three counties, Xun Yu also arranged for people to move the people back in Qingzhou, south of the Yellow River, after all, since the strategic layout is placed in Guanzhong, the location of Qingzhou is too far.

For a time, in the land of Gyeonggi, there were mostly ordinary people along the way, and these people were often led by officers and soldiers to walk fast, urging them to hurry up.

They also want to hurry to Guanzhong, they have long heard that Guanzhong is fertile and fertile for thousands of miles, they are looking forward to the day when they have their own land, and Guanzhong is dangerous, so there is no need to worry.

Of course, Cao Cao's relocation in the territory has also attracted the attention of countless people, and many outsiders think that Cao Cao is a sign that he can't beat Yuan Shao, so he relocates.

And Xun Yu replied, Guanzhong Chidi is thousands of miles, and the relocation people added, this reason is credible or not, so that there are many rumors that Cao Cao will be defeated.

————

Jingzhou, Jiangling City.

Jiangling was originally the governor of Jingzhou, but after Wang Rui's death, Liu Biao arrived, and because he was afraid that Yuan Shu would capture Jingzhou, he moved the state to Xiangyang.

Normally, Xiangyang is more like a claim against the enemy.

Of course, whether it is Jiangling or Xiangyang, they all belong to Nanjun, and Liu Bei borrowed Jingzhou in later generations to borrow Nanjun, about half of Nanjun.

And Gangneung, although not governed by the state, is extremely rich, and its city hoards grain, grass, ordnance, arrows, etc. are countless, and it is estimated that there will be so many in order to supply the front-line armor soldiers to fight.

It's just that Chu Feng is cheaper at this time.

Huang Zu deceived the city gate as his own person, and Jiangling's defense was weak, so he took it very easily, so that all the surrounding counties did not dare to resist.

As a result, the Chu army gained a firm foothold in Jiangling.

Inside the city, the general's office.

Chu Feng was thinking about how to fight this battle.

Sha Xian left 5,000 Chu troops plus 5,000 Huang Zu troops to prevent Liu Biao from coming to the bottom of the kettle to draw salary, and Jiangling's troops at the moment, more than 40,000 soldiers and horses, are not much.

I am afraid that it is not enough to take Jingzhou.

He has already arranged for people to ask for help, and is ready to transfer the Central Army, which has just been repaired for a short time, plus the trapped camp, with these two strong forces to join, it is not difficult to capture Jingzhou.

"Report~! Qiyu lord, Xiangyang sent back news that Liu Biao had appointed Liu Bei as the commander, commanding tens of thousands of troops, and was heading south. ”

At this moment, the scout shouted.

In the first place, Chu Feng raised his eyebrows, slowly put down the letter in his hand, and chuckled: "Liu Bei still dares to come, he is really an unbeatable Xiaoqiang!" ”

"Lord, the last general is willing to lead the army to take Liu Bei's head!" Zhao Fan clenched his fists and shouted.

"Lord, then Guan Yu will be handed over to me!" Xu Chu patted his chest and said with some excitement.

"Lord, the arrogant soldiers will be defeated, don't be careless!" Zhao Yun frowned and clenched his fists at this moment, and admonished: "Liu Beiwu knows that he had a relationship with Gongsun Chan when he was under him before,"

"This person is good at employing people, and he can often make his subordinates live from death."

Chu Feng nodded, Zhao Yun was indeed more inclined to Confucian generals, and he was more careful in his work, although Liu Bei pulled his hips, but to despise his opponent was to destroy himself.

"Bo Yan, what do you think?" Chu Feng looked at Lu Xun, who he had specially brought from Hefei to serve as his military advisor.

"My lord, the enemy may not only be in the north, but also in the south!" Lu Xun took a wrong step and pointed to the map in the distance and said.

"South? You mean Zhang Xian? Chu Feng frowned, he really ignored it.

"Exactly, he and Liu Biao have grasshoppers on a rope, the lord is slow, the two of them will break their heads and bleed, and the lord will attack urgently, and the two will definitely fight together."

"Now, the lord has taken Jiangling, I'm afraid Zhang Xian won't be able to sit still, and he may join forces with Liu Bei at that time." Lu Xun said solemnly.

"Makes sense!" Chu Feng nodded: "What about your opinion?" ”

"Lord, the purpose of our army is to take Jingzhou, not to defeat Liu Bei. Jiangling is four or five hundred miles away from Xiangyang, the road is very long, and there is no water system directly to Xiangyang. ”

"And our army is only one or two hundred thousand foot soldiers, when Liu Bei arrives, and he unites with Zhang Xian, it will be difficult for our army to win in a short time, so why not change the strategy?"

Lu Xun said in a deep voice.

"Change strategy? How to transform? Chu Feng asked curiously.

"Lord, Liu Bei and Zhang Xian's two armies are combined, I am afraid that there are nearly 100,000 troops, rather than breaking the enemy head-on, it is better to defend the city and brake quietly, I think neither of them will take the initiative to attack the city."

"And Jiangling is the hinterland of Jingzhou, the lord only needs to leave one general to stick to this, garrison Liu Bei, this place happens to have enough food, countless strong bows and arrows, it is not difficult to defend."

"At the same time, the lord can let General Gan lead the boat division to make a detour along the Han River to the north, go straight to Jingling, and then approach Xiangyang, and the lord will personally lead the foot soldiers to cooperate with the naval army to take Jingling."

"In this way, as long as our army takes Xiangyang, Liu Bei's army will no longer have logistics, and his three armies will also be self-defeating, wouldn't it be better than facing the enemy head-on?"

Lu Xun chuckled, and the head of the analysis was Dao.

The generals couldn't help but nod their heads, Liu Bei led a lot of troops this time, plus Liu Biao's soldiers and horses in Changsha, I am afraid there are at least forty or fifty thousand people.

And Zhang Xian also has tens of thousands, and nearly 100,000 people can't take advantage of it, but with the advantage of the boat master, it is indeed a good choice to switch to Hanshui.

"General Lu, although this plan is good, but Xiangyang City has thick walls and is known as a rare fortified city in the world, even if our army takes the tomb to Xiangyang after all, how should we break the city?"

Zhao Fan frowned slightly.

"Hehe, although the city of Xiangyang is high and the walls are thick, the people's hearts are not aligned, and there will naturally be people to surrender when the time comes. What's more, the relationship between the lord and Nanyang Zhang Xiu is delicate, and he can join forces with Zhang Xiu to further besiege the city,"

"When the time comes, with a little coercion and temptation, the group of families will naturally surrender. Wait for Jingbei to take it, and the lord will start to clean up Zhang Xian again, so that Jingxiang can be fully controlled! ”

Lu Xun explained heartily.

"Well said, use the long to hit the short, confuse Liu Biao, or maybe go down in a fight." Chu Feng said with appreciation, he thought of the Cai family again, and his previous letter said,

When the soldiers came to the city, she surrendered.

Thinking that the defense of Xiangyang City is in the hands of the Cai family, if the Cai family surrenders, Jingzhou will be stable.

If Liu Biao knew that the person next to him had already planned his death, I don't know how to feel.

Sure enough, the most poisonous woman's heart.

"Gan Ning, immediately lead the boat division back to Shaxian at night, divert the Hanshui to the north, I will join you in Jingling, as for the reinforcements from Hefei, all of them will go north along the river."

Chu Feng said in a deep voice.

"No." Gan Ning immediately hugged his fists.

"Zhao Fan, you lead the soldiers and horses of your headquarters plus the foot soldiers under Huang Zu to guard this place, remember, don't go out of the city to fight, just defend the city with all your might." Chu Feng explained again.

"Don't worry, the lord is in the city!" Zhao Fan responded sonorously.

"Zhao Yun, Lu Xun, and the others followed me to lead a few foot soldiers to cross over." Chu Feng arranged.

"No!" The two nodded.

"Later, I will arrange someone to visit Zhang Xiu in Nanyang, and this battle can end before the deep winter." Chu Feng had a little hope, he was afraid that it would be too late.

Once there is an accident in Guandu, it will be his own loss.

And now the defense line is too long, one or two thousand miles in length and width.

"We'll do our best!" All the generals should drink together.

"Alright, let's all go down and get ready to go." Chu Feng waved his hand, looking at the departing people, he fell into deep thought, hoping that Cai's words would count.

That way, he doesn't mind being the new pillow next to her!

The premise is that her Cai family has to know that she is clumsy, and he will not be controlled by others like Liu Biao.

——

On the night of the same day, the Chu army boat division set out, went down the river, turned back to Shaxian, and prepared to enter the Han River.

And Chu Feng led three hundred special combat members, as well as Lu Xun, Zhao Yun, Xu Chu and others to cross to Jingling, but on the way to Jingling, they may have to pass through water, miasma, and poisonous fog, which is quite a lot.

You need to be extra careful!

————

When the sun is shining, Nagasaka slope.

On the official road, there are mighty soldiers.

20,000 was given by Liu Biao, 3,000 was trained by Liu Bei himself, and when he arrived in Jiangling, there were still more than 20,000 troops, so he counted 40,000 or 50,000 at least.

This can make Liu Beile bad,

He's never been so cool in his life.

As the commander of forty or fifty thousand soldiers and horses, it is comfortable.

"How far is it!" Liu Bei glanced at it, but he couldn't see the boundary clearly, so he asked.

"Big brother, it's already in Dangyang, and it's probably one or two hundred miles away from Jiangling." Guan Yu looked at Liu Bei and said in a deep voice.

"Military division, Jiangling is now occupied by the Chu army, I don't know if the military division has a good strategy to break the enemy?" Liu Bei looked at Xu Shu and asked.

"Don't be in a hurry for the time being, be more careful along the way to prevent the Chu army from ambushing, and when you arrive, you will naturally have a way to break the enemy." Xu Shu is a little confident.

Liu Bei nodded and said excitedly: "Pass the order, the three armies will advance at full speed!" ”
