Chapter Ninety-Seven: Change of Plan

"This is an urgent military report, presumably related to the military situation in Hanzhong, why don't you open it and look at it?"

In the Yecheng Palace, seeing Cao Cao who was about to open and stop with a letterbox, Jia Xu couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

"Ivan and look, for ...... Why did this military report come from you and not ...... Talented? ”

In Jia Xu's incomprehensible gaze, Cao Cao, who was holding the letterbox, suddenly trembled a little even when he spoke.

"The king's meaning is ......"

was reminded by Cao Cao like this, Jia Xu couldn't help but have a bad premonition in his heart.

You must know that Xiahou Yuan is the main general who guards Hanzhong. It stands to reason that even if there is an urgent military situation, it should be reported by Xiahou Yuan, not Zhang He!

"Wenhe, you...... You open it for Gu and take a look! ”

Just when Jia Xu was also suspicious, Cao Cao handed him the bamboo tube containing the Hanzhong military newspaper.

"The King's ......"

"Huang Zhong Lao'er, swear to take your head to sacrifice Miaocai!"

……

"Gongzi is very happy, the military report that the lord just came, at the beginning of the month, Huang Hansheng beheaded Xiahou Yuan in the Dingjun Mountain Formation...... Now the lord has taken most of Nanzheng and Hanzhong, and has landed on the south bank of the Han River......"

Just when Cao Cao learned from the military report sent back by Zhang He that Xiahou Yuan was beheaded by Huang Zhongzhen at Dingjun Mountain, and that Hanzhong only had Pingguan and the land north of Hanshui, Liu Chan, who was in Jiangling, also got the news of his father's victory.

It's not that the three or eight are vertical and horizontal, and the yellow pig meets the tiger; In the south of the fixed army, is there a share of wounds? It's only twenty-three years now, and there is a difference of one year, and Xiahou Yuan still hasn't been able to escape the fateful knife......

In Pang Tong's happy expression, Liu Chan, who looked at the military newspaper in his hand, couldn't help but be stunned, and muttered in his heart.

In this way, the time for Cao Cao's pro-unified army to go to Hanzhong must also be advanced. Then let the second master go north to Xiangfan, and by the way, lure Sun 100,000 to make a sneak attack, shouldn't the plan be arranged in advance? ’

Seeing that this battle of Hanzhong was different from the romance and the original plot that he knew, Liu Chan couldn't help but start asking the second master to launch the battle of Xiangfan in advance, in order to induce Sun Quan to attack Jingzhou again, and then push back the plan to sweep away Jiangdong.

"Childe, now that Xiahou Yuan has died in battle and Cao's army has been defeated, Cao Cao will personally lead the army to Hanzhong to fight with the lord...... Now is the time for me to do it in Jingzhou! ”

Just as the so-called heroes saw the same thing, just when Liu Chan was thinking about whether to take the opportunity to launch the plan in advance, Pang Tong's voice was more excited and excited than before.

"Come on, immediately invite Guan Junhou, Mi Taishou, and Pan Zhizhong to discuss matters!"

Since Pang Tong, the wind chick, also thought that the time had come, Liu Chan naturally made up his mind quickly.

"In addition, someone will immediately go to Wuling and Cangwu, and pass on Uncle Yun and Deng Ai to return to Jiangling to report on their work!"

In the end, just as the attendants who went to invite the second master and others had just left, Liu Chan immediately issued an order to let Zhao Yun and Deng Ai, who was stationed in Cangwu, come back to 'report on their work'.

……

"This is the Hanzhong military report I just received, Xiahou Yuan has been beheaded, and my father has captured most of Hanzhong such as Nanzheng......"

In the state pastor's mansion, looking at the second master and Mi Fang and Pan Xuan, the three highest-ranking military and political officials in Jingzhou in addition to himself, Liu Chan did not sell Guanzi, and immediately handed out the military report of the great victory in Hanzhong.

"Hansheng is lucky!"

After taking the military report handed out by Liu Chan, after a few glances, the second master, who had all his attention on Huang Zhongzhen's beheading of Xiahou Yuan, couldn't help but feel a little sour.

There is no way, Huang Zhong's contribution to killing the commander of the enemy army is too dazzling. Even the highlight moment of the second master's beheading of Yan Liang and Wen Chou back then was still slightly inferior to Huang Zhong's contribution this time.

After all, Xiahou Yuan is the commander of the first army, and how can Yan Liangwen and Chou's two generals of Yuan Shao be compared.

Therefore, the second master, who has always been arrogant, was pressed by Huang Zhong, a 'veteran', this time, and he was naturally a little unconvinced.

It's just that in the face of Huang Zhong's miraculous achievements, in addition to envy, the second master can only attribute it to luck.

You know, this is not a romance of fighting generals at every turn. If you want to kill the enemy commander before the battle, in addition to your excellent real skills, luck really accounts for a large part of the reason.

"Haha, why should the second uncle be envious. General Huang Lao is a great achievement in beheading the commander of the enemy army, and the second uncle's 'commanding' army is also a great achievement in attacking the city and plundering the land? ”

Seeing the second master's 'careful eyes' appearance, Liu Chan, who was secretly laughing in his heart, hurriedly opened his mouth to coax himself, one of his second uncles and fathers-in-law.

"Haha, Adou is right, a certain ...... Well? What does Adou mean...... Could it be that I'm in Jingzhou and can use soldiers? ”

The second master, who was originally a little dizzy by Liu Chan's nephew and son-in-law's sycophants, finally reacted to Liu Chan's meaning halfway through the words, and the Northern Expedition to seize Xiangfan and Nanyang that he was talking about was finally about to begin.

"Haha, could it be that the second uncle doesn't want to take back the land of Xiangfan Nanyang?"

Looking at the surprised look on the second master's face, Liu Chan couldn't help but look over suspiciously.

"You kid, the second uncle of Xiangfan Nanyang naturally can't ask for it. But you said you were going to ......"

In Liu Chan's puzzled expression, when the second master with a happy face was halfway through his words, he turned his head to look at Mi Fang and Pan Xuan with some scruples.

There is no way, I know Liu Chan's 'big fight' plan, so far, there are only two people, the second master and Pang Tong.

"Hehe, second uncle, but it's okay to say, now the time has come, and it's time to let everyone know about it!"

Seeing the second master's eyes, Liu Chan naturally understood what he meant.

"Before, you said that you would fight a war to settle the situation and sweep away Jiangdong. Now, if we raise troops to attack Xiangfan Nanyang, our Jingzhou troops will ...... at that time."

At Liu Chan's suggestion, the second master then let go of his scruples and asked his own questions.

Speaking of which, although the second master knew Liu Chan's 'big war' plan, he also didn't know the specific details, such as letting him 'bait' the Northern Expedition to Xiangfan and Nanyang to attract Sun Quan to attack.

"The first battle will be decided, sweeping Jiangdong?"

Before the second master's words landed, Mi Fang and Pan Xuan, who had never taken the opportunity to speak before, couldn't help but exclaim.

"Yes, since you want to fight, you naturally have to fight. We not only want to take this opportunity to recover the land of Xiangfan Nanyang in one fell swoop, but also all the land of Jingzhou. As for the land of Jiangdong, the right should be the rent of Changsha and Guiyang counties in recent years, hahahaha! ”

In the exclamations of Mi Fang and Pan Xuan, Liu Chan immediately opened his mouth with a domineering face to confirm what the second master said about the first battle and the sweeping of the six counties and eighty-one prefectures in Jiangdong.
