Chapter 509: Fighting in Fancheng

Sun Quan, you can fight for it!

Cao Pi showed a hint of a playful smile, and now Cao Wei and Sun Quan were both treated as leeks by Liu Mang, and they were ruthlessly harvested.

In particular, Liu Mang's behavior of playing with the soybean market and deliberately raising the price finally made both sides pay several times more money to buy rice and wheat.

The blind profit-seeking nature of the market was successfully used by Liu Mang, who just used simple numbers to play both sides in the palm of his hand.

Of course, Cao Pi is deliberately done by Liu Mang, and Sun Quan is a leek on the pole, and there is a difference between the two.

However, people like Sun Quan naturally can't think of the relationship.

With his habit of backstabbing and betraying his character, Liu Mang categorically would not tell him that the market is risky and that investment needs to be cautious.

"Zhongda, who should I send to contact Sun Quan?"

Cao Pi calculated in his heart that he wanted to reach an alliance with Sun Quan as soon as possible, taking advantage of Liu Mang's opportunity to give him such a good opportunity.

If Liu Mang attacked Fancheng and Xiangyang, Sun Quan could send troops to attack, which would definitely make him suffer heavy losses.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, Hua Xin is Sun Wu's former minister, and Sun Quan will obey his orders."

"If we win a series of battles, Sun Quan will definitely not backstab Liu Mang, if we are defeated one after another, Sun Quan will not understand the truth of cold lips and teeth."

"Now that our army has lost Liangzhou, Sun Quan cannot influence the war in the west, so he can only use Jingzhou as the starting point."

Sima Yi's analysis was the head of the Dao, and then continued to offer advice: "We can buy off the Karasuma, Xianbei and other clans with gold and silver, and order them to form cavalry and participate in the war with Liu Bei." ”

Cao Pi was cautious, if he allowed foreign tribes such as Karasuma, Xianbei, and Xiongnu to participate in the war, it would be tantamount to seeking skin with the tiger.

It's just that Liu Bei's father and son in front of him are more like two giant dragons, and they have come to Cao Pi with their teeth and claws.

"Let's see if Jia Wenhe can block Liu Bei!"

Cao Pi took a deep breath, "Zhongda, is every step I take really right?" ”

Sima Yi was a little stunned, and then said with relief: "Your Majesty, sooner or later, we will have a battle with Liu Bei, and his father and son are by no means the ones like Sun Quan. ”

"With Liu Mang's means, if he is not forced to take the initiative to start a war, I am afraid that the national strength of the two sides will become bigger and bigger."

Liu Mang spent a year telling everyone, don't look at Liu Bei's current territory is not as big as your Cao Wei.

However, the development of national strength is definitely a top trick!

Today he can play with the soybean market, and tomorrow he can play with the corn, rice, and wheat markets.

Liu Mang's economic warfare methods can be said to be endless.

It also made Cao Pi completely panicked, and they preferred to win on the battlefield rather than be stabbed to death by Liu Mang's soft knife.

"I, the royal driver! Zhongda goes with me! ”

"By the way, Ziwen is also a brave general, and he was ordered to lead his troops to Chang'an!"

"It would be great if he could kill Liu Bei, otherwise let him die for the country!"

A hint of fierceness flashed in Cao Pi's eyes, this is the only brother who has military power.

Now let him go to Chang'an, even if he is sent to death, Cao Zhang can't refuse.

"Your Majesty's wonderful hands, Weichen admires!"

……

Gangneung.

Liu Mang led a land and water army with a total of 80,000 people, and the vast soup was killed and went to Fancheng.

Pioneer Gan Ning, led Jinfan and 10,000 Jingzhou sailors.

Liu Mang, Zhao Yun, Zhang Ren, Ma Yunlu, Tai Shici, and Tai Shiheng of the Chinese army led the generals and the main force of 40,000 cavalry.

The rear army Wei Yan, Deng Ai, Wu Yi, Wu Ban, and Zhang Yi led 30,000 Jingnan and Jiaozhou troops.

"Shizi, is it really appropriate to leave Yun Chang and Yide behind in this battle?"

Zhao Yun recalled the appearance of the two brothers, and couldn't help scratching his head a little.

Especially Zhang Fei, when he heard about the attack on Xiangfan, Liu Mang actually took him with him, and decisively made an awkward scene.

"Fourth Uncle Zhao, this place in Xiangfan is the second uncle's Shura field."

"There are some grievances, but I still have to solve them personally, I am giving my second uncle a chance to be ashamed."

Zhao Yun was a little incomprehensible, but he knew that Liu Mang would never harm his elders, let alone be untargeted.

"Well, Yide is easy to coax, just need to bring some old wine."

"It's Yun Chang, his temper has come up, and it's really elusive."

When Liu Mang heard this, he rolled his eyes, "I can't bring Mrs. Du and let the second uncle continue the edge, right?" ”

Zhao Yun was a little dazed, and Zhang Ren secretly asked: "Zilong!" What's going on with Mrs. Du? ”

Ma Yunlu also ignited the heart of gossip, "Didn't you say that General Guan was in Cao Ying, and Cao Cao gave many beauties, but she didn't accept it?" ”

Zhao Yun was a little at a loss, how to explain it in order to save the face of the old brother?

Difficult! It's so hard!

"It's a long story!"

"Back then, the second uncle took a fancy to Lu Bu, that is, Du Shi, the wife of my father-in-law's subordinate Qin Yilu, so he took the initiative to ask Cao Cao for it."

"Hey! And guess what? When Cao Cao heard this, he saw that the Du clan looked like a gentle and touching person, of course, it was included in his harem! ”

"So the beam is finished! The hatred of taking his wife, do you think my second uncle can really defect to Cao Cao? ”

When Zhang Ren heard this, he didn't know what to say for a while, especially the glorious image of General Guan, which seemed to have some flaws.

Ma Yunlu glared at Zhao Yun with a glance, "Say!" You don't have these stinky problems with General Guan, do you? ”

Zhao Yun hurriedly shook his head like a rattle, "Yunlu, don't worry!" I only have the two of you in my heart! ”

Liu Mang didn't forget to mend the knife at this time, "I won't tell you anything, if Cao Cao is like my father, adhering to the principle that brothers are like siblings and women are like clothes." ”

"Perhaps, my second uncle will be truly obedient back then!"

Zhang Ren gave a sycophant at this time, "The prince must be the same as the king of Hanzhong, right?" Deeply aware of the righteousness, which makes us admire! ”

Liu Mang glanced at Uncle Shi, "Uncle Shi, whoever touches my clothes, I will chop his hands and feet!" ”

Ma Yunlu couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "The prince is mighty!" ”

……

Ahh

Not long after Liu Mang led the army to leave, Guan Yu sneezed several times in succession.

"Second brother, the weather is getting colder, you should pay attention to adding clothes."

"The robe that the eldest brother made back then, but it was sewn and mended, and it was time to change it to a new one!"

Zhang Fei stood beside Guan Yu and looked in the direction of Fancheng.

"There must be a young man who deliberately slanders Guan's reputation!"

"Even the Shujin Baihua robe is not as comfortable as the one made by the eldest brother himself."

"Yide, it's a pity that you and I missed the battle to attack Jingxiang!"

Guan Yu stroked his beautiful hair, not showing the anger of the absence of battle.

"Second brother! In front of everyone, you're not so reasonable! ”

"If I hadn't stopped you, you would have to fight out of the city and follow behind Mang'er!"

Zhang Fei's words made Guan Yu's old face red.

"You know what? Yide, I once had a dream for my brother, and the fate of my three brothers seems to be different from now! ”

"Oh? Didn't the second brother never believe in dreams? I never thought in my life that my eldest brother would be able to achieve a hegemony! ”

Zhang Fei laughed, "Second brother, quickly tell me your dream!" ”
