When he heard that the enemy's commander was Zhao Yun and Zhang He, Li Fu, the Taishou of Xincheng, was keenly aware of the local conspiracy. This must be a trap, intending to lure his new city army over, and then annihilate it all in Shangyong.

After discovering the conspiracy of the Shu army, Li Fu bravely chose that the friendly army was in trouble and did not move like a mountain. Not only did the ministries not be allowed to go to the rescue, but they also continued to strengthen the city defense of the new city, and sent people to Huainan for help.

The Wei army in Xincheng refused to rush to help, causing the defenders of Shangyong Weixing County to fall into a situation of being isolated from two sides.

The captain who was left behind by Shen Yi was dutiful and took the Shangyong garrison to defend the city. Zhao Yun led his troops along the Han River, besieged the city on all sides, and fought for several days without defeating.

Of course, there is no way, the mediocre terrain must first have a thick city wall. The Shen family has been deeply cultivated here for decades, and the local heroes are all interested in Cao Wei, and it is indeed not a good way to attack hard.

However, Zhang He is in Changwei County, and Zhao Yun is not in a hurry. He divided part of his troops to besiege the surrounding counties, sent people to appease the Shangyong Shanyue people, and personally led the main force to slowly attack the city.

The time card of Zhao Yun's dispatch of troops was too accurate, and it happened to be the time when Cao Wei was empty.

At this time, the main force of the Shu army was facing off against Dongwu in the Yangtze River, and the two sides were about to talk about a protracted war when they saw the situation. On Cao Wei's side, Cao Rui learned the lesson of Cao Pi back then, and issued an edict to attack Wu at the same time as the Shu army sent troops.

Not only did he transfer some troops from the Central Plains, but he also asked Cao Xiu to transfer most of the garrisons of the Huainan Military Region to Hefei. Jing Xiang only left the garrison soldiers, and the rest of the troops were not left.

Cao Rui's idea is to let Shu Han and Dongwu compete boldly and with confidence, and you don't have to worry about me stealing you from the flank. In this way, the Shu army can let go of its hands and feet to draw Dongwu, and he can also take advantage of the situation to go straight to Yangzhou.

He didn't know Shu Han's plans, but Cao Rui knew deeply that opportunities were reserved for those who had opportunities!

Therefore, the strategic goal of the Wei army in this battle was to go straight to Yangzhou, and even if it could not be defeated, it would recover all the counties east of Jiangling and north of the Yangtze River.

But in this way, the front on Cao Wei Jingxiang's side was suddenly empty. In particular, the Shangyong counties had few soldiers, and they also lost Huainan's response.

Zhao Yun was just right, and he was stuck at this point in time to kill from Hanzhong. Cao Wei's Jingxiang defense line was just at the stage where there were no troops available.

Again, if our prime minister had a choice, he would definitely not make a loss-making deal, and this time it was like this.

How can it be enough to just smoke Soochow? If you want to fight, you will fight together, and push the entire Eastern Front battlefield together.

Zhao Yun led the main force of soldiers and horses out of Hanzhong and attacked all the way to Shangyong. The news spread from the new city to the rear, and the entire Cao Wei went crazy.

Why don't you Shu Han talk about martial arts?

Everyone has a heart, how good it is to smoke Soochow together without tacitly taking care of each other. Now I'm here to transfer Jingxiang's troops away in order to be careful, and you stabbed me backhanded?

Can we still have a good time together?

Cao Rui was almost stupid when he heard that Weixing County had fallen, Shangyong was in danger, and Xincheng County was almost stupid when he was attacked by the Shu army.

How dare the weak Shu State attack my Great Wei while attacking Wu?

"Tell me all about it, what should I do about it?"

There was no way, Cao Rui could only put this matter on the court, and the ministers of the court discussed countermeasures.

"Xishu is despicable and shameless, and suddenly entered the Kou when my Great Wei went south to attack the rebels of Eastern Wu. Now the three counties of Shangyong are in an emergency, and Jingxiang is empty and has no soldiers to save, what can be done about it? ”

Shu Jun's hand really made Cao Wei unable to react, and by the time he reacted, it was too late.

This feeling is very familiar to Cao Rui, like a copy of Shu Han's first Northern Expedition.

First a large-scale operation attracts attention, then something comes out of the other side to surprise you, and finally you react when the other side has already made a killing move.

Zhuge Liang, this old thing, has a bad mind, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will open your eyes.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the Yuzhou army should be immediately transferred to help, even if you can't save Shangyong, you have to keep the new city!" Zhendong General Chen Qun stood up and suggested to Cao Rui.

"This raid on Xishu has been planned for a long time, and I will raid it when my Great Wei is empty. Looking at its overview, it is very likely that it intends to reproduce the sneak attack of Longyou back then. ”

"Now the main force of the Shu army has fought out of Yidao and held on to the Yangtze River with Eastern Wu. If its troops turn north to attack Xiangyang, I am afraid that the entire Jingzhou may fall again. ”

"So at this moment, we should immediately send troops to help, and if necessary, we can join Wu to attack Shu!"

all know that Zhuge Liang and Lu Xun confronted the Yangtze River, and theoretically no one could move. But who knows if this is another trick by Zhuge Villager, who plans to go straight to Jingxiang with a false shot?

If it were someone else, Cao Wei might not be so afraid, but on the opposite side was the figure who won Longyou three months ago.

The entire Cao Wei had a stress reaction to Zhuge Liang, for fear that this master would open their eyes again. Losing a Longyou is enough of a headache, and if you lose Jingxiang, I'm afraid they will all have to move the capital.

Chen Qun's suggestion was approved by the ministers, and Zheng Cheng, the servant, also opened his mouth to advise and talk about the benefits and disadvantages.

However, just when the ministers all said about the benefits and disadvantages of Jing Xiang and thought that the plan to kill Wu should be suspended, a person suddenly stood up and interrupted everyone's words.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that not only should he not rush to the aid of Jingxiang at this moment, but he also needs to hurry up the matter of cutting down Wu. Take advantage of the entangled Shu army and the Wu army when it is difficult to separate and attack Wu with all their might. ”

"If Your Majesty returns his forces to defend Jingxiang, it is estimated that it will not be long before Shu and Wu will unite again, and then it will be a real crisis!"

Cao Rui looked at that person, it was Shang Shulang and Qiu Jianye.

Seeing Cao Rui looking over, Biqiu Jian said aloud.

"Western Shu and Eastern Wu are all small countries, and only according to the danger of mountains and rivers and the obstruction of the three rivers can they compete with our Great Wei. Its lips are cold and its teeth are cold, and if Shu dies, Wu is lonely, and vice versa. ”

"Such a simple truth, even Luoyang children know it, Zhuge Liang is the demon in the world, An Neng doesn't know?"

"Therefore, the core of its attack on Wu is by no means to defeat Eastern Wu, otherwise it will go down the river, or Jingnan will rebel against Wu and welcome Shu in half a month."

"Zhuge Liang's intention is to force Dongwu to give up the emperor's title and cede land for peace. Its means of coercing Eastern Wu not only come from the Shu army itself, but also from us! ”

"What he needs to ensure is that the troops of Hefei are enough to deter Sun Quan, but they cannot defeat Eastern Wu. Otherwise, once Eastern Wu is defeated, Western Shu will be weak, or it won't be long before it will be defeated by my Great Wei Heavenly Soldiers. ”

"In addition to seizing territory, the division of his forces to attack Shangyong is also to attract our attention. Once this happens, the troops of Hefei will only be enough to deter the Eastern Wu, making it difficult to defeat it in fear. ”

"With the courage of Dongwu in this way, I'm afraid that in a few months, he will be a vassal in the west!"

"Your Majesty, this is all Zhuge Liang's bureau, you can't let him deceive!"

Biqiu Jian's words quickly woke everyone up, as if they had been empowered.
