Chapter 365: Old Yin Fox Yang Seeks Power
Seeing that the three of them spoke in unison, Cao Cao couldn't help but look at Guo Jia.
As if to say that your suggestion was rejected, are you ready to save it?
Guo Jia turned around knowingly, arched his hand at Zhang Liao, and asked, "Why are the generals so determined?" ”
"I saw Long Xiang a few years ago, he was just a small Quhou at that time, and he was able to run Hefei so in a few years, there must be something outstanding, and Lu Su and others were assisted, and it was not easy to eagerly want to lay down;
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu also returned from the feathers before, this time we were stationed outside Hefei City, and we saw Hefei heavily fortified, since the lord wanted to choose one of the two in Anhui County and Hefei, the last general thought that it was better to be cautious."
Zhang Liao had eye contact with Cao Chun and Han Hao when he spoke, and he felt that he didn't tell Xu Chu's suppressive power, after all, he couldn't grow his majesty in front of Cao Cao.
Guo Jiashu asked: "The way of the husband and the soldier, attacking the heart is the top, attacking the city is the bottom, the heart is the top, and the soldier is the bottom." Our army annihilated more than 20,000 people in Jiangdong, and you even beheaded Chen Wu and captured Wu Jing. I think we can try to persuade him to surrender, General Zhang has an old relationship with Long Xiang, or can he take on this heavy responsibility? ”
"No, no, no"
Zhang Liao hurriedly waved his hand and humbly conceded, and then turned to Cao Cao with his fists clenched: "My lord, when the last general first arrived in Hefei last month, he had already persuaded Long Xiang to surrender, but this person has the ability to argue with his tongue, and the last general is really powerless."
"Lord, what Wen Yuan said is very true."
Cao Chun stood up in time to testify, and added: "I and Yuan Hei were also there at the time, Long Xiang is indeed difficult to deal with, and from the analysis of his words, it seems that he is very confident in Hefei, and he has no fear of us, and it should be futile to persuade him to surrender at this time." ”
Cao Cao saw Han Hao and nodded in confirmation, and then dispelled his thoughts about Hefei.
If there was enough food and grass, he really wanted to fight Long Xiang, but there was a more secure choice, and Cao Cao was not willing to take the risk.
"Since it is difficult to persuade surrender and storm Hefei, then we still concentrate our forces to take Anhui County, but" Cao Cao suddenly changed his words, stared at Zhang Liao and asked: "I heard that Wenyuan beheaded the enemy general Chen Wu?" Is this person really the real Chen Wu? ”
"I guess it's right?"
Zhang Liao didn't know about 'Chen Wu burning the boat', so he was very stunned for a while, he thought about it and added: "At the beginning, this person pretended to be Long Xiang to come to Shu County to provoke, and the last general was then ordered to chase him to Hefei, and it was Long Xiang who told the last general that he was Chen Wu."
"We heard that, too."
Seeing Cao Chun standing up to help again, Cao Cao frowned and bowed his head slightly, and asked: "According to the report of Jun Yi's troops, the grain ship we parked in Lishui was also burned by Chen Wu and others, and now I can't figure out one thing, how did Chen Wu avoid so many soldiers and horses from west to east, and then join Wu Jinghui?"
"I don't know what the end will be"
Zhang Liao was embarrassed by the question, and immediately remembered that he had Chen Wu surrendering troops, and it should not be difficult to find and confirm the confrontation, so he turned to look at Zhang He in the rear.
Seeing Zhang Liao's questioning expression, Zhang He thought that Zhang Bo just heard that he didn't get the evidence, and it was difficult to say whether it was really Chen Wu, so he rushed out to explain to Cao Cao.
"Lord, Chen Wu was beheaded by General Zhang, his head was blurred, and the last general's troops were not easy to identify, it may be true that as guessed, Chen Wu went to Lishan alone to collude with Mei Cheng, burned the grain ship and rode through the combat zone alone, so he was not discovered by our army scouts."
"If that's the case, this Chen Wu is a talent." Cao Cao did not give a subjective assessment.
The civil and military officials in the government are divided into left and right, and the civil officials are in the first place with Guo Jia, and the head of the accompanying military attache is Xiahou Yuan, he has been listening to it just now and has not expressed his position, seeing that Cao Chun has been protecting Zhang Liao to speak, thinking about Zhang He's listening to my dispatch during this time, does he have to do something for him?
Thinking of this, Xiahou Yuan stood up to play a round.
"Lord, Jun Yi's analysis is reasonable and well-founded, and the facts should be like this, anyway, now that Chen Wu is dead and Wu Jing has been captured, if you want to crusade against Mei Chengxing's master and ask for the guilt, the last general is willing to ask Ying to go."
Cao Cao waved his hand and vetoed it: "Mei Cheng is fighting Yan Xiang in front, burning our army's grain ships in the back, and for the disaster of Huainan Kouxing Township, he should die but not now, the current attack on Anhui City can not divide the troops, you still rush to Anhui County as soon as possible, take over Zhang Xiu's command of the siege." ”
"Yui." Xiahou Yuan happily accepted the order.
Cao Cao followed the general: "Gongming (Xu Huang), Jun Yi (Zhang He), Yuan Bo (Gao Lan), you lead your troops and Miaocai to return to his control, and take Anhui County with me as soon as possible." ”
"Yui."
The named generals responded in unison, and then followed Xiahou Yuan.
Cao Cao left Zhang Liao, Cao Chun, Han Hao and others, in addition to not wanting them to grab credit, he also had the consideration of staying in Shu County to deal with Zhou Yu and the subsequent relocation.
Since he gave up Guo Jia's plan, Cao Cao looked at Jia Xu.
"Zhou Yu'er is a strange person, when we transferred troops to Hefei and Shu County before, this guy has not been able to shrink, but Shu County now has many soldiers and horses, but he chose to show his whereabouts, according to the scout's intelligence this morning, those rats have appeared in the northwest, and the soldiers on the warship are gathering by the lake, Wen He can know Zhou Yu's intentions?"
Jia Xu rubbed his beard and thought for a while: "Ming Gong's soldiers have always been uncertain, Zhou Yu's move may be tentative, and there is a high probability that he will not dare to take the initiative." ”
"Zhou Yu is a steady soldier, and he is really a rare general." Cao Cao expressed his affirmation: "If I hadn't been wary of this person, Wen Yuan and Zihe would have gone to Anhui County." ”
Jia Xu gave his hand to consolation: "There are enough troops attacking Anhui County, and no additional troops can be used, Ming Gong is very correct to leave them, as long as the news of Wu Jing's capture is returned, Zhou Yu will not dare to come to Shu County to harass, Ming Gong can send people to discuss the exchange of prisoners, so as to buy time for General Miaocai." ”
Cao Cao frowned: "Use Wu Jing as a condition?" What can Sun Quan get in exchange? He doesn't even care about his brother Sunhe. ”
Jia Xu said: "Sun Quan doesn't care, only after talking about it will you know, Wu Jing is his own uncle, anyway, we can't recruit him, it's better to exchange something to get affordable, money, grain, land, armor, warships, or let his proton be exchanged." ”
"Proton?" Cao Cao was surprised: "I haven't heard that Sun Quan has a son."
Jia Xu reminded in a low voice: "He doesn't have a son, but he has a brother." ”
"Brother? Wen and you are confused. ”
Cao Cao shook his head: "At the beginning of Sun Quan's ascension, there was a lot of disharmony within the Sun family, let's take the initiative to take away the threat for Sun Quan, isn't this a favor for Sun Quan?" ”
"I heard that before Sun Ce's death, Zhang Zhao and others supported Sun Yi to succeed to the throne, which shows that this person has a lot of roots in Jiangdong, but unfortunately he failed to fulfill his wish in the end, and Sun Yi could not guarantee that he would not have hatred in his heart; If the Duke of Ming let Sun Quan proton, he would send Sun Yi, who was the most threatening, and at that time, the Duke of Ming used Sun Yi's name to conquer Jiangdong, and asked who Sun Jian and Sun Ce's old ministry supported? ”
Seeing Jia Xu's smiling face, Cao Cao said in his heart that you old fox is really yin, no wonder it was folded in your hand at the beginning.
Even I, Cao Cao, admit it, Sun Quan Xiao'er hasn't been killed yet? This is a conspiracy.
