Chapter 483: Fighting at the Jade Gate Pass
There was finally a situation in Yumen Pass, and the news of the call from the Western Regions spread quickly.
Even if Cao Cao had been mentally prepared for a long time, he knew that the small country of the Western Regions would call again, but when he got the news, he was still surprised for a while, and immediately gathered all the civil and military generals to come over to discuss.
"Yuan Rang, Miaocai, Jun Yi, Yuan Bo."
"You lead 50,000 main forces first, and immediately set off to support Yumen Pass, hold the pass, and there must be no mistake."
"Zihe, you lead the tiger and leopard to ride, and you also fight together."
After Cao Cao gathered everyone, without saying a word, he immediately gave orders and sent troops to support first.
The Yumen Pass cannot be lost, once lost, Dunhuang will be in danger and directly exposed to the enemy.
"Yes!"
Xiahou Xuan, Xiahou Yuan, Zhang He, Gao Lan, plus Cao Chun and the other three responded in unison, and then immediately went out, leading the army to set off first, and then followed with grain and grass.
"Lord!"
Ma Chao stepped forward and said loudly: "Several of our brothers have been in Liangzhou for many years, and they are very familiar with the situation in Liangzhou, so they ask to fight. ”
Pound chimed in: "So are the subordinates. ”
"Accurate!"
Cao Cao thinks it makes sense.
The people they came from Xudu were definitely not as familiar with Liangzhou as the Ma brothers, so it was feasible for them to go to guard Yumen Pass.
"Subordinates take orders!"
They bowed their hands, followed behind Xiahou Yuan and the others, and also left.
The Jade Gate Pass is in danger, and they can't afford to slack off for a moment.
Ma Teng didn't play, and if Ma Chao went to them, it would be enough.
"People from the Western Regions, it's still here."
When they all left, Chen Zhou said slowly.
It's not coming very quickly, they can also predict it, they will definitely come, but they just dealt with the Xianbei people, stabilized Liangzhou, and didn't prepare for Yumen Pass for the time being, and now it's inevitable that it's a little chaotic.
Cao Cao said: "Han Sui buried a lot of trouble for us in order to seize Liangzhou!" ”
The people of the Western Regions arrived as scheduled, and in a short period of time, they really couldn't go back to Xudu.
"What do you think?"
Cao Cao said again.
Chen Qun said first: "I can only fight with the people of the Western Regions, maybe I can take this opportunity to pacify the Western Regions." ”
A long time ago, the Han Dynasty set up the Imperial Protectorate and the Changshi Mansion in the Western Regions.
But now, the Han Dynasty is too busy to take care of itself, and the control of the Western Regions has long been gone, and those small countries in the Western Regions have become independent again and are no longer under the control of the Western Regions Changshi Mansion, and now the Changshi Mansion is completely gone.
"If we want to pacify the Western Regions now, we can't do it yet, and we need to invest too many troops and energy."
Guo Jia shook his head slightly, and said: "But we still have the ability to fight with the Western Regions now, and to show our prestige, it will be much easier to subdue and pacify the Western Regions in the future." ”
Uncontrolled Western Regions, they will fight back sooner or later.
At the time of the Great Han, the Western Regions belonged to the Great Han.
In the future, Cao Cao will be in power, and the Western Regions will inevitably belong to Cao Cao.
After listening to Guo Jia's words, Chen Zhou and the others nodded slightly.
Must fight, unless you give up Liangzhou, but it is impossible to give up.
The significance of Liangzhou in the northwest is still very important, and the land of the Han Dynasty cannot be missing.
"Uncle."
Cao Peng walked in at this time and said, "Han Sui and the others, begging to see their uncle, saying that they want to make up for their mistakes, not to make meritorious contributions, but to atone for their sins." ”
"Atonement?"
Cao Cao narrowed his eyes.
Cheng Yu said: "Han Sui should feel guilty, and if he wants to kill the enemy to atone for his sins and make up for his mistakes, the lord might as well see him." ”
Cao Cao said: "Pass on Han Sui and others. ”
Not long after, Han Sui and a few of them were brought up.
The news of the arrival of the Hu people in the Western Regions, even if they were locked up, knew it from the jailer.
Because those jailers were all from Liangzhou, they knew very well that Han Sui had brought them disasters, and when they heard that the Xianbei people had just left, the people from the Western Regions came again, and scolded Han Sui and them fiercely.
"I've seen Prime Minister Cao."
Han Sui and the others bowed in unison and said.
"I heard you want to atone for your sins?"
Cao Cao asked.
Han Sui nodded and said, "That's right, this matter started because of me, and I am willing to go to the Western Regions to fight to the death to atone for my sins." ”
"So do we."
Yan Xing and the others echoed together.
The tone is firm, the voice is also very powerful, and the determination to fight to the death to atone for sins is very clear.
Han Sui said again: "Even if we die, we want to die on the battlefield of atonement, please ask Prime Minister Cao Cheng's permission." ”
Hearing this, Cao Cao had a slight change in his opinion of Han Sui and others.
They are not completely incompetent, and they know that atonement is good.
"What does Watari think?"
Cao Cao looked at Chen Zhou.
"Since they have the heart of atonement, it is possible to fulfill them."
Chen Zhou thought for a while and felt that even if Han Sui and the others escaped in the name of atonement, it was not a big problem.
Because they can't escape, much less escape.
If they fled to the Western Regions, those people in the Western Regions would definitely not let them go.
Go to Xianbei?
It's also a dead end.
Unless you take refuge in those Qianghus, but the Qianghu are not necessarily willing to accept it.
Cao Cao asked again: "Gongda, Fengxiao, what do you think?" ”
Xun You said: "You can give them a chance. ”
Guo Jia echoed: "I also think I can give it a chance." ”
Cao Cao did consider whether Han Sui would take this opportunity to escape, but they all thought it was feasible, and then thought about the situation of Han Sui and the others, and nodded: "This matter is accurate!" Gather all the grain and grass at once, and set off for the west early tomorrow morning. ”
"Yes!"
Everyone said in unison.
The battle to fight the Western Regions is finally coming.
None of them were surprised.
After receiving Cao Cao's order, everyone went down to work for this.
Chen Zhou is an exception, when the others went to be busy, he still stayed, and had a good idea, and said: "Lord, do you want Huang Hansheng to come to Liangzhou and meet us first?" ”
He kind of wanted to see Old Man Huang, and he also wanted to see how Huang Zhong's combat power was.
Now that the Western Regions are going to war again, it is a good time.
I don't know when this battle will last, so Huang Zhong has been waiting in Xudu, and it is inevitable that there is a sense of neglect, so it is better to bring him to Liangzhou and meet this veteran in advance.
"Let him come to Liangzhou?"
Cao Cao was also deeply interested in this veteran who was respected by Chen Zhou, if his strength was really that strong, he could also add a lot of help to the army, and agreed: "An Min, send a message back, let Cao Gu arrange it, and bring Huang Hansheng to Liangzhou as soon as possible." ”
He also felt that leaving people in Xudu did have a meaning of being left out in the cold.
Although not what he wanted to leave out in the cold.
It is still necessary to meet in advance and see Huang Zhong's performance on the battlefield.
"Yes!"
Cao Peng went down to give the order.
Cao Cao asked again: "Duzhi thinks, what are our odds of winning?" ”
Chen Zhou said confidently: "One hundred percent, with our combat strength, the Western Regions are definitely not opponents, even if they can open the gate of the Jade Gate and enter Dunhuang, we can kill them." ”
With this sentence, Cao Cao was completely relieved.
He was also confident in his own troops, but he still habitually asked Chen Zhou to increase his self-confidence.
