Chapter 121: The Time Has Come
In the city of Wudu, there were originally 10,000 Shu troops, which could be regarded as an important town of Shu Han.
Although Jiang Wei once borrowed 8,000 soldiers and horses because of the attack on Longxi, after defeating Longxi, considering the important geographical location of Wudu, Jiang Wei quickly returned the borrowed 8,000 soldiers and horses to Chen Shi.
No one expected that the Di people in Wudu would suddenly make a rebellion, and Wudu was taken down by Cao Zhi almost effortlessly.
When the news came out, Fu Yan, the general of Longxi, was very shocked, because as soon as Wudu was lost, the channel connecting Longxi and Yizhou was cut off, whether he should immediately send troops to recover Longxi, Fu Yan couldn't make up his mind, so he had to ask Jiang Wei.
On Cao Wei's side, after Guo Huai learned that Cao Zhi used a plan to take all the military capitals, he was immediately excited, and hurriedly repaired a letter to Deng Ai, asking him to lead an army of 30,000 and prepare to attack Longxi.
After the recovery of Wudu, the defenders who were originally used to defend Wudu can also be vacated, plus the original army in Tianshui, Tianshui also has 30,000 troops.
Guo Huai felt that the time was ripe to attack Longxi at this moment. Jiang Wei finally got into the serial set, as long as he defeated Longxi, Jiang Wei would be trapped in Liangzhou.
He was planning to raise troops to attack Longxi, but a herald came to report that the princess of Dongxiang, Cao Aya, was coming.
Guo Huai hurriedly went out of the assassination mansion to greet Cao Aya.
Cao Aya should have learned that Cao Zhi had captured Wudu, so she hurried over to discuss the next plan of action with Guo Huai.
Soon, Cao Aya, escorted by a group of guards, arrived at the Great Wei Yongzhou Thorn Mansion.
The heroic clerk and Xiahou Ba, who was wearing a curved bow and a suit of armor, were guarding Cao Aya's left and right.
Cao Aya is still a cold color, noble and cold.
Guo Huai saw Cao Aya arrive, and hurried out to meet him.
"Minister Guo Huai, see Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
Cao Aya glanced at Guo Huai and said surgingly, "Get up!" ”
So he walked straight to the house.
Guo Huai is a little strange, according to the past practice, Cao Aya will always help Guo Huai up as soon as possible, he can be regarded as an old minister in Yongzhou, and he can also be regarded as a member of the court, Cao Aya has always respected himself, how to look at Cao Aya today is quite dissatisfied with himself.
Guo Huai didn't have time to think about the reason, and saw that Cao Aya had already entered the mansion, so he had to quickly follow in.
After entering the mansion, Cao Aya sat on the main seat, and then glanced at Wen Yuan, and Wen Yuan said to Guo Huai:
"General Guo, I'm sorry for you to hold back, Her Royal Highness the Princess has something important to discuss with the general!"
Guo Huai saw that Cao Aya was full of posture today, so he quickly waved his hand and retreated.
So there were only four people left in the house: Cao Aya, Guo Huai, Xiahou Ba and Wen Yuan.
Cao Aya finally said coldly:
"Guo Huai, are you guilty?"
Guo Huai hurriedly knelt down and said to Cao Aya: "Your Royal Highness Princess, what is the crime of the minister?" ”
Cao Aya stared at Guo Huai coldly and said, "Guo Huai, did the palace say that Cao Zhi should not be allowed to lead the troops?" But why was Cao Zhi able to capture Wudu? Do you take the words of this palace as the wind in your ears? ”
Guo Huai hurriedly explained: "Your Royal Highness the princess, how dare the minister not listen to His Royal Highness's orders, the minister did not let Cao Zhi lead the troops, and the military capital could be taken by Cao Zhi, but in fact, there was almost no use of Tianshui soldiers and horses." ”
"What?" Cao Aya originally thought that Cao Zhi could take the Wudu because Guo Huai gave Cao Zhi a large army, and Cao Zhi had conquered the Wudu, but now Guo Huai said that Cao Zhi took the Wudu and did not use the Tianshui army, which made Cao Aya very surprised.
"What the hell is going on?" Cao Aya asked coldly.
"Your Royal Highness the Princess, that's the case, Cao Zhi offered his ministers a plan to capture Wudu some time ago, which is to persuade Qiang Rui, the leader of the Di people in Wudu, to unite inside and outside and outwit Wudu. Qiang Rui only presented "Hundred Crafts to His Majesty" not long ago, and he should be dedicated to Dawei! ”
"Well, this palace also knows about this."
"Yes, Your Highness, the minister is worried that Cao Zhi will be in danger alone, and I am afraid that something will happen, after all, Cao Changshi is a member of the clan, and there is no way out, so the minister sent an army of 1,000 people to protect Cao Zhi's safety."
Seeing that Cao Aya frowned when he heard about the army of a thousand people, Guo Huai hurriedly explained: "This thousand people are just to protect Cao Zhi, not under his command!" ”
Seeing that Cao Aya's beautiful eyes stretched slightly, Guo Huai continued:
After Cao Zhi infiltrated Wudu, he lured Qiangrui, the king of Di, to a huge profit, and promised that if the Qiangrui Ministry could assist Cao Zhi in seizing Wudu, he promised to give the Qiangrui tribe 50,000 baht of money and 50,000 stone of grain. also promised to seek the position of marquis for Qiangrui himself, which is why Qiangrui was moved. ”
"Feudal marquis? Is my Marquis of Great Wei so worthless? What qualifications does he Cao Zhi have to promise to give the Di people a marquis? Cao Aya said angrily.
"The princess is angry, Cao Zhi didn't say this to death, it's just to say that it is an expedient measure to move Qiangrui, if Her Royal Highness the princess feels that Qiangrui is not worthy of the title, then he will not be sealed."
"However, Qiang Rui later cooperated with Cao Zhi and took Cao Zhi into Wudu, and saw that the Wudu of Shu was too guarded by Chen Shi, and took advantage of his unpreparedness to kill Chen Shi with thunder method, and took advantage of the chaos in Wudu City, summoned 6,000 soldiers to attack Wudu, and captured Wudu almost bloodlessly!"
After listening to Guo Huai's narration, Cao Aya felt more and more that this Cao Zhi was indeed quite talented, but it was a pity that he was a person from his uncle Cao Zhi's lineage, and he always had to be on guard.
The struggle for imperial power has always been extremely cruel, Cao Aya has deeply experienced this since she was a child, in essence, it is a life-and-death struggle, her father did not kill Cao Zhi, leaving Cao Zhi's vein is already very benevolent.
Now that Cao Zhi has outwitted Wudu, he has strategically cut off the connection between Jiang Wei and Shu, and has made such a great achievement, presumably his reputation in the Wei army will rise even more.
Cao Aya will never allow Cao Zhi to threaten the status of his brother Cao Ei, judging from the news that came back from the court, in the past few months that he has been absent from the court, Cao Rui has built a lot of construction and recruited beauties, and he looks like a faint monarch who is overjoyed and addicted to wine.
If under the current circumstances, another virtuous person emerges from the clan, a comparison between the two may threaten Cao Ei's status.
Cao Aya was entangled in her heart, so she said to Guo Huai:
"General Guo, please get up and speak! Cao Zhi outwitted Wudu, and the establishment of the merit, the palace will play the emperor's majesty, give him the credit, but as a clan, he must return to Luoyang to receive the reward, the palace ordered him to leave Yongzhou within ten days, return to Luoyang, General Guo can hear clearly. ”
"This ......" Guo Huai didn't expect Cao Aya to give such an order, thinking that Cao Zhicai had made a miraculous feat, but he was about to be beaten back to Luoyang by Cao Aya, and since then he has been under house arrest and is not allowed to leave Luoyang again, and he suddenly feels very pity.
"What? General Guo didn't even listen to the words of the palace? Cao Aya asked in a cold voice.
Guo Huai didn't dare to confront Cao Aya in person, because Cao Aya was not only the princess of Dongxiang of Great Wei, but also shouldered the mission of patrolling Yongliang on behalf of the Son of Heaven, and she could be regarded as the incarnation of the Son of Heaven at this moment.
So Guo Huai could only shake his head and sigh, and arched his hand:
"Obey orders!"
Cao Aya saw that Cao Zhi had finally eliminated the hidden danger, so he wanted to appease Guo Huai's emotions and said to Guo Huai:
"General Guo, now that the military capital has been recovered, Jiang Wei's passage to Yizhou has been blocked, and the time has come to besiege Jiang Wei, I don't know what General Guo's plan is?"
Cao Aya knew that Guo Huai had always been eager to recover Longxi, and now that she said this, she could support Guo Huai's idea, and she must be able to appease Guo Huai a little.
After Guo Huai heard this, he hurriedly said: "Your Royal Highness Princess, the minister plans to transfer the 30,000 troops under Deng Ai and join the 30,000 troops of Tianshui to attack Longxi together, recover Longxi City in one fell swoop, and completely trap Jiang Wei in Liangzhou." ”
