The news of Chang'an, with the urgency of eight hundred miles, was quickly sent to Cao Pi.

Faced with the situation in Chang'an City, Cao Pi figured out the cause and effect.

Cut down Wu and cut Wu!

That Liu Gonghei's attack on Wu is simply fake.

The Northern Expedition is true.

Most of our Wei army was concentrated in Xuzhou, and the soldiers in Guanzhong were also transferred to fight the rebellion because of the Liangzhou rebellion.

This is the bureau of the Han State, and he Wei really jumped into the pit dug by the Han State.

It just doesn't make sense!

Cao Pi's face was gloomy, like a black pot, his chest rose and fell violently, and he coughed twice from time to time, obviously very angry.

In the tent, none of the civil ministers and military generals of Wei dared to speak.

What can be said now?

What dare you say?

"Liu Xuande led a heavy army, from Chencang Road has entered the Guanzhong, Cao Zhen led the main force in the Guanzhong, and now it is still in Liangzhou, and now in Chang'an City, there are only 20,000 defenders, now, what should I do?"

"Your Majesty, now, we still need to deal with this matter calmly."

Sima Yi saw that Cao Pi's face was like a boiled duck, and hurriedly came to appease him.

Sima Yi: I know you're in a hurry, but don't worry.

"How do you deal with it calmly?"

Cao Pi's eyes were full of murderous energy, and he looked directly at Sima Yi.

"Here in Xuzhou, maybe it can only be handed over to the general to attack, and we must rush to the aid of Guanzhong as quickly as possible!"

Here in Xuzhou, the situation is still not good.

After more than 20 days of attack, Pengcheng was already crumbling, and the two acropolis outside Pengcheng had been uprooted.

Now only the main city of Pengcheng stands alone on the plain.

As long as he is given some more time, Pengcheng will definitely be captured!

But

Cao Pi understood that he no longer had this time.

"Zang Ba is not dead, I am uneasy!"

This Zang Ba is like a hundred-legged insect, as long as you don't kill him, just cut off his hands and feet, give him a while, he will be able to make waves in Xuzhou immediately.

Especially in Xuzhou, the soldiers have actually been wiped out by Cao Pi and filled into the Wei army, and now all parts of Xuzhou can be described by the word emptiness.

He absolutely did not allow that what he had spent so much energy doing would end up in vain.

This time, he was able to pass through Xuzhou so smoothly because of the preliminary preparations, because there were many officials in Xuzhou, and they were still interested in Wei, and those generals could still be persuaded by him.

But next time, it won't be so easy.

After all, the fate of those generals who were persuaded by him, these Xuzhou people are estimated to be able to see it clearly now.

Basically, he was deprived of military power, even if he was made a marquis, but it was not as comfortable as when he was the emperor of the soil in Xuzhou before.

Everyone has a scale in their hearts, and Cao Pi understands in his heart that if he doesn't solve the problem of Xuzhou this time, it won't be so easy to solve next time.

"The general has been on the battlefield for a long time, and it is naturally not a problem to deal with Zang Ba, who only has one breath now."

Cao Ren's strength, Cao Pi still recognizes.

But

He is now worried about more than just Zang Ba.

There are also Liu Gonghei, the crown prince of the Han Kingdom, as well as Guan Yu in Nanyang and Pang De in Runan.

"The school government reported that the people of Nanyang and Runan have begun to be mobilized, Guan Yu and Pang De, the generals of the hundred battles on the battlefield at that time, if he is involved, I am afraid that even if the general has 50,000 people, it will be difficult to completely eliminate Zang Ba."

His enemy of Wei has never been more than Zang Ba.

Guan Yu and Pang Tong, plus the sinister and cunning prince of the Han Kingdom, which one needs to be guarded against?

"Although the honor guard of the prince of the Han Kingdom is still in Xiangyang, maybe he has already entered the three eastern counties and gone to Hanzhong."

Hua Xin stepped forward and said.

"The news that Liu Bei is seriously ill, although it is not true, but his health is not good, or it is true, with Liu Bei's current age, marching thousands of miles, I am afraid that his body can't stand it, if he dies in front of the battle, I am afraid that the morale of the Han army will collapse, therefore, the prince of the Han Kingdom is troubled, and there is no need to think about it now."

Went to Hanzhong?

Cao Pi frowned, and there was a suspicious look in his eyes.

It's not that he doesn't believe it, he is afraid of Liu Chan.

Who knows if he is in Xiangyang or Hanzhong now?

In case this Xiangyang prince's guard of honor is deliberately to confuse him, then when the main force of his Wei army goes to Guanzhong, wouldn't Yuzhou have the possibility of falling?

When the time comes, if the county is lost, the land of Longxing in his Wei State will be lost, which will be funny.

"Xuzhou must be captured, and Zang Ba must die!"

Cao Pi's tone was low, instead of being led by the nose by the Han Kingdom, it was better to eat the meat in his mouth first, not to the end, this one was not obtained, and that one was thrown away.

"Just."

Shang Shu made Chen Qun's face hesitate.

"Without the support of our army, more than 20,000 people in Chang'an alone can block the Han army? Guanzhong guards Xiahou Nanfei is not a good fighter, and Liu Xuande has been in the army for a long time, so he is probably not an opponent! Although General Cao Zhen is brave and good at fighting, he is now in Liangzhou, if he wants to come back to help, I am afraid it will not be easy, the Han army will definitely block the road to his help, so that Chang'an is in danger! ”

Chang'an in danger?

Cao Pi snorted coldly and said, "Now it is Zhang He who guards Chang'an!" He is a general of a hundred battles, and he has repeatedly made great achievements, with 20,000 soldiers, holding Chang'an for a month or two, which is not a problem. ”

As for Xiahou Mao.

He didn't even mention it.

It's a shameful thing.

gave him such an important place in Guanzhong to guard, what did he do?

first messed up Chang'an, and then ran away directly?

Niang Xipi!

Xiahou Nan is incompetent, losing power and humiliating the country!

But even if Xiahou Nan did such a thing, Cao Pi would not be able to make this matter public, and then punish Xiahou Nan.

It's not that he doesn't want to be punished, but people like Xiahou Nan are already capable in the Cao family and Xiahou family.

If he presses him down again, there will be few young people in the Cao family's Xiahou family who can be promoted.

In the Wei state, Cao Pi attached great importance to the art of the emperor, that is, the way of balance.

Since the application of the Jiupin Zhongzheng Fa, the talented children of the family have poured into the Wei court in waves after waves, and among these talented children, there are many great talents who have passed through the world, that is, Cao Pi has been admitted to the school, and he also nodded straight.

However.

There are more talents in the family, and there are fewer talents in his clan, and now he can still hold it down, but can his successor hold it down?

Cao Pi couldn't help but be worried.

His body knows that he already has tuberculosis, coupled with the unrestrained addiction to women after coming to power over the years, and his eating habits are not good, this tuberculosis has become more and more intense, and it is difficult to suppress it.

That's why.

In recent years, he has gradually given his clan a chance.

However, none of these clan relatives are angry, and the current Cao Pi is tired.

Call~

Cao Pi let out a breath of turbidity and threw these chaotic thoughts out of his mind.

The problem now is Xuzhou and Guanzhong!

As for the internal problems of the Wei State, it is better to wait until the current matter is resolved, and then consider it!

"The reinforcements from Liangzhou may not be able to rush over in a month or two, if I don't wait for the soldiers to go to support, I'm afraid Chang'an will really be broken by the Han army!"

The look of worry on Chen Qun's face never dissipated.

"But if our army leaves Xuzhou, not to mention the results of the attack on Xuzhou for several months, if the Han army in Runan and Nanyang sends troops, who will defend Yuzhou? The land of my Great Wei Longxing, as well as your clan land, are all in Yuzhou! ”

For example, Chen Qun was born in Yingchuan.

And Yingchuan is next door to Nanyang, especially Yexian is now owned by the Han army, if Guan Yu sends troops, it can be described as fast as the wind.

And once there is no Wei army to come to support, how can Guan Yu be stopped by relying on the state and county soldiers in the Yingchuan army alone?

Can't stop a little.

"There must be gain, now it is between the trade-offs, Jingzhou has been fighting for a long time, and it is impossible to fight, Guan Yu has been taught a lesson in Yingchuan once, this time he will not dare to invade, and the Han State is now in the Northern Expedition, An can have the spare strength to send troops in Nanyang?"

The national strength of the Han State is far inferior to that of the Wei State, and the Wei State is still struggling to fight on both sides, let alone the Han State?

"There will definitely be a way, soldiers, maybe they can be transferred from Sili, Jizhou, Bingzhou, and Yanzhou."

Sima Yi smiled bitterly and said: "Now in Xuzhou's 100,000 troops, many of them are transferred from Sili, Jizhou, Bingzhou, and Yanzhou, and there are not many soldiers in these states. ”

For example, Yanmen County, Dai County, and Shanggu County were in direct contact with the Xiongnu Xianbei.

The Xiongnu Xianbei seems to be vulnerable, but under its roar, there can be tens of thousands of cavalry, which should not be underestimated.

Xianbei people?

Cao Pi's eyes lit up as if he had thought of something.

"Perhaps, you can ask Xianbei people to rush to help Chang'an!"

Please Xianbei people to help?

It was Sima Yi who felt that his thoughts were already wild enough, but when Cao Pi said this, he was still shocked.

Xianbei is a foreigner, how can he obey orders?

And from Bingzhou to Guanzhong, can Xianbei people be obedient along the way?

Will not the people along the way be plundered by them?

And

Can these aliens be the opponents of the Han army?

"Summoning people of different races into the Central Plains is a measure to quench thirst by drinking donkeys, and it must not be!"

If the Xianbei people obeyed, Cao Pi would not have to appoint Tian Yu, Zhao Zhao, and Xie Jun as the captains of Xianbei.

There is no need for Yan Rou to be the general of Duliao.

"From the east of Gaoliu and to the west of Mao, there are ten tribes of Xianbei people, and the Kebineng, Micah, and Suli divide the areas and rule them, each with its own boundary; They made a joint oath that none of them would sell their horses to the Central Plains. With such a wolf ambition, how can they become helpers? Tian Yu and the others are already preparing to attack the Xianbei people, and now it is not easy to transfer troops from here. ”

Sima Yi analyzed on the side: "Besides, the grassland is still thousands of miles away from Guanzhong, even if you want to ask them for support, it is also far away that water cannot cure your thirst." ”

Listening to Sima Yi's words, Cao Pi had no choice but to put this tempting idea aside.

After he ascended the throne, those Xianbei people in the north gradually became stronger, and they were already to the point where they could threaten the border of Wei.

In Cao Pi's imperial mind, if he could invite these Xianbei people into Chang'an and let them and the Han army consume, it would be a strategy to kill two birds with one stone.

Coup!

Divine plan!

But sometimes, don't overthink one thing.

I'm afraid that after these Xianbei people arrive in Chang'an, they will not be able to work hard, and when the time comes, they will only care about looting and dragging him back from the Wei army, which will not be good.

"So what should we do now?"

In desperation, Cao Pi could only ask the same question again.

"From the courtier's point of view, Your Majesty will take 20,000 elites, together with the soldiers of various states of Wei, it should be possible to gather 50,000 reinforcements, and with these 50,000 people, go to aid Chang'an, maybe you can reach Chang'an within two months."

Two months?

The flowers are gone.

Cao Pi pondered for a moment, and his eyes gradually became resolute.

"Dispatch 10,000 Luoyang forbidden troops, and order Xiahou Shang and Xiahou Nan to lead the troops, as the vanguard of reinforcements, and go to aid Chang'an first. Zhang Liao led 20,000 people, for the Chinese army, within a month, must go to Chang'an! ”

Xiahou Nan's crime, Cao Pi can ignore it.

But you have to go back to Chang'an!

Want to escape?

I won't let you escape!

As for Zhang Liao's good condition in Shouchun, why did he want to lead the troops.

Naturally, it is because the person in charge of Jianghuai military affairs who is now facing off by Sun and Wu of Wei has been replaced by Cao Xiu, the Marquis of Anyang Township.

Although Zhang Liao is brave and loyal, in Cao Pi's opinion, it is still not as smooth as his own people and is worthy of trust.

Besides, Cao Xiu's ability is not bad.

Cao Xiu went to defect when Cao Cao raised troops to defeat Dong Zhuo, and was known as the "Thousand Miles Horse". He was appointed to lead the tiger and leopard cavalry guards, and was responsible for his own guards, and often fought from war.

Ability in the clan is also called good.

Of course

If the current Wu State had not been beaten down by Liu Chan, Cao Pi might not have dared to transfer Zhang Liao away.

After all, if there is no capable defender to defend the sixth person like Wu Guo, Cao Pi is not at ease.

But thanks to Liu Chan's blessing, the current Wu State has only one breath left, and Wu Guo has no spare strength to engage in such a thing as a sneak attack.

That trump card of Liao, he can also take it out and use it.

"As for the dispatch of soldiers from various states, they need to go to Luoyang within a month to obey orders, and whoever is overdue will be beheaded!"

Even, in order to make the transfer of troops smooth, Cao Pi directly appointed the children of the family to be responsible for the transfer of soldiers in Benzhou County.

These families, since they are powerful and blessed in his Wei country, then now that Wei is in trouble, it is time to use you.

After the three orders went down, Cao Pi looked at the ministers in the tent and asked, "Do you have anything else to say?" ”

On the Xuzhou side, only 20,000 people were transferred, and the remaining 80,000 people, whether it was the encirclement and suppression of Zang Ba, or the pressure from Runan and Nanyang, were more than enough.

Merely.

In this way, the strength of Wei to go to Chang'an to help is much less.

Those soldiers transferred from various states and counties are probably just some state and county soldiers.

If it's not an elite division, these 50,000 people, that's too little.

"The soldiers that Great Wei can transfer have all been mobilized, and now, it depends on whether Zhang He can hold Chang'an."

Whether or not we can hold Chang'an and wait for the Wei army to rush to the aid is the most critical thing.

"General Zuo used to be the pillar of Hebei Ting, and after returning to my Cao Wei, he has repeatedly made military exploits, and he has defended Chang'an with 20,000 people for a month or two, it's not a problem!"

Although Cao Pi was also panicked in his heart.

But now, he can only believe it.

Chang'an is not lost, everything is easy to say.

But if Chang'an is lost.

Thinking of the consequences, it was now noon, and Cao Pi couldn't help but shiver.

If Chang'an is lost, then the Wei State and the Han State will really change their form in attack and defense! (End of chapter)
