Chapter 523: Xuzhou Zang Ba is also an outcast
Xuzhou.
Cheng Yu, who was still confronting Zang Ba, ushered in a nobleman outside.
"Your Majesty...... How did you end up here? ”
Cheng Yu hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, he knew that Cao Pi now cared more about face than Cao Cao back then.
"Zhongde, please hurry up, you are the former minister of the first emperor, you don't have to be so polite with me."
Cao Pi sneered: "The Sun and Liu families, they can turn their faces because of Jingzhou, and my Great Wei can also take this opportunity to take back Xuzhou." ”
Cheng Yu was a little puzzled, did Fancheng and Xiangyang just give up to Liu Mang?
"Your Majesty...... Please forgive Weichen for being puzzled, if you want to give up Fancheng and King Xiang, what about the 50,000 soldiers stationed here? ”
Cheng Yu once used to make dried meat from villagers to pay for the army.
He is an out-and-out iron-blooded man, and he is a soldier at heart.
Cheng Yu never wanted Cao Pi to say that he would give up the soldiers, but unfortunately Sima Yi on the side spoke.
"Zhongde, you didn't see through His Majesty's intentions, you're really old!"
"Jingxiang is the land of four wars, even if my Great Wei owns this place, he will continue to be harassed by Liu Bei and Sun Quan."
"Jingzhou is dispensable to my Great Wei, but the Sun and Liu families are bound to win."
Sima Yi smiled slyly, Cheng Yu seemed to have understood what the other party was thinking.
"Your Majesty...... You worked hard to let Liu Mang send troops to Fancheng, just to make the Sun and Liu families completely turn against each other! ”
"Liu Mang's capture of Fancheng will only make Sun Quan even more red!"
"And you will take the opportunity to come to Xuzhou to deal with Zang Ba?"
Cheng Yu felt that Cao Pi in front of him was quite cunning, but his methods of deceiving the enemy were too cruel!
50,000 Wei soldiers were abandoned by him in this way, even including the first emperor Cao Cao's favorite general - Le Jin.
"Zhongde, now Zang Ba shouldn't know that I'm coming."
"Order Zhang Liao and Xu Huang to assault the enemy's position!"
"This time, I want to completely take Xuzhou, which Emperor Wu didn't take, to myself!"
The sudden appearance of two generals, Zhang Liao and Xu Huang, completely broke the scale of war.
Zang Ba couldn't resist at all, so he could only retreat again and again, and finally in desperation, he retreated to Mount Tai and became a veritable thief of Mount Tai.
Cao Pi used Fancheng and Xiangyang as bait to attract Liu Mang's attention, induce Sun Quan to backstab, and then pacify Xuzhou.
Sima Yi's original intention was to coax Zang Ba to go to Luoyang to face the saint, but Cao Pi directly overturned his idea.
was stunned to play such a trick and take back Xuzhou.
"Although Liu Mang has won Fancheng, it has been flooded, and even if Xiangyang is captured, the grain and grass in the city have been transferred by Boren."
"In addition to the loss of 50,000 soldiers, as well as Lejin and Yu Ban, I have gained the land of Xuzhou!"
"It made the Sun and Liu families completely turn against each other! Zhongde, dare to ask if this is more than a transaction, did I make a profit or a loss? ”
Cao Pi looked at Cheng Yu playfully, waiting for the other party's answer.
Cheng Yu sighed secretly in his heart, but he had always been upright and disdained to lie.
"Your Majesty, you earned Xuzhou, but you lost people's hearts......"
"On the other hand, Liu Bei's father and son are the best at buying people's hearts!"
"I hope that Your Majesty can treat the Xuzhou captives well, and don't ...... them"
Before Cheng Yu finished speaking, he noticed Cao Pi's cold eyes.
"These insects who follow Zang Ba are all traitors of the Great Wei, and it is difficult to solve the hatred in my heart if I don't kill them!"
"But for the sake of Zhongde's intercession, I will let them live, and then go to the battlefield in the future for my use!"
Cao Pi waved his sleeves, he wanted to listen to Cheng Yu's beautiful words, but the result was not satisfactory.
……
Fancheng.
The Han army drained water for several days before Liu Mang could enter the city.
In this battle, Liu Mang flooded Fancheng, drowning 20,000 Cao troops, and the remaining Cao troops were directly captured by him.
"Shizi, what should we do with these captives?"
"It's not realistic for them to deal with Cao Pi now, after all, their family is still in the Central Plains."
After Zhao Yun killed Xiahou Shang, he led the army to Xiangyang.
Cao Zhi's tiger and leopard cavalry only symbolically resisted, and then led the army away, and they already knew Cao Pi's general strategy.
Although he didn't say it, he was scolding Cao Pi in his heart!
"Fourth Uncle Zhao, the best way is to let Cao Pi sacrifice when they are in Fancheng, but it will not embarrass their family."
"One group went to Jiaozhou Tuntian, and one group was sent to Liangzhou to raise horses."
Liu Mang made such an arrangement, and the generals readily agreed.
It's just that Fancheng, as an important stronghold, is now completely in ruins.
"If you want to revitalize Fancheng, it will take at least three or five years."
Gan Ning sighed, "Cao Pi of the dog day has already escaped!" ”
"The brothers who harmed our Jinfan have been searching for days!"
Liu Mang nodded, if Cao Pi could be killed in this battle, it would definitely cause chaos in the Central Plains.
Not long after Cao Pi usurped the Han Dynasty, his power was still unstable.
Let's just say that Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi are not the masters of peace.
"If Cao Pi's goal is not Fancheng, then he wants to pacify Xuzhou!"
"Zang Ba is in danger! I only hope that this person can retain his strength and at least delay Cao Pi for a while. ”
Liu Mang hurriedly sent a letter to the cheap dad in Chengdu, hoping that Liu Bei would be able to react as soon as possible, and Cao Wei must not be allowed to have a chance to breathe.
……
Chengdu.
After learning that Liu Mang was attacking Fancheng, Liu Bei immediately went out of Qinchuan and joined Ma Chao's soldiers to go to Chang'an together.
"Meng Qi, when you come to Chang'an again at this time, you will definitely conquer the old capital!"
Pound held a big knife and looked at Chang'an, they came here that day to avenge Ma Teng's revenge.
"Ling Ming, revenge is small, and reviving the Han family is big."
Ma Chao went through Peng Yi's incident, and his whole mentality changed greatly.
The once violent and perverse Ma Mengqi seems to have disappeared, and was replaced by Ma Chao of Liangzhou in the Han Dynasty.
"Big brother! Lingming! ”
Ma Dai rode his horse and frowned: "Nearby, there are cavalry of the Xiongnu and Xianbei people!" ”
"I didn't expect that there would be those barbarians near Chang'an!"
Just as the three of them were discussing, they saw a person sitting on a four-wheeled vehicle, wearing a crane and holding a feather fan, floating like an immortal.
"Presumably, Cao Pi gave those aliens benefits and asked them to help defend the city."
Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan lightly, and then looked at the three people: "There is one thing, and the three generals are still needed to help!" ”
"Liang has received news that His Majesty has died in Fancheng...... The queen was martyred for him. ”
"The initiator is the usurper Cao Pi!"
What? The emperor is dead?
Ma Chao was a little moved, his father Ma Teng kept talking about reviving the Han family, but now the Han has lost even the Son of Heaven!
"You should know that a family cannot be left without an owner for a day, and a country cannot be without a king for a day."
"In this matter, Liang is only willing to discuss with the three of them."
"Tomorrow, I hope that Meng Qi will add clothes to the king of Hanzhong."
Add clothes?
Ma Chao was puzzled, "Sir, it's easy to talk about adding clothes, but I don't know what clothes to add?" ”
Zhuge Liang smiled indifferently: "Liang, I want to let the king of Hanzhong add the yellow robe!" ”
