Spring is blooming, Cao Cao is in a good mood, and he thinks it's time to go south. Cao Cao has always been a man of grudges, and his famous quote is: "The side of the couch does not allow others to snore".

And now, Jingzhou is on the "side of the couch" in Xudu, and Cao Cao naturally can't sleep peacefully.

As early as when Cao Cao fought with Lu Bu, Liu Biao united with Zhang Xiu, the gun king of the north, and gave Cao Cao a very unsleeping reason: Cao Cao was about to sleep with a beautiful woman, but at this time Zhang Xiu actually led people to fight and kill in the city.

During the battle of Guandu, Cao Cao was most afraid of Liu Biao's sneak attack on Xudu, even when the battle against Yuan Shao was the most difficult, he also asked the general Cao Ren to bring 30,000 soldiers and horses to garrison Fancheng in case of Liu Biao.

It's a pity that Liu Biao is suspicious of human nature, better at sitting and talking, self-controlled, and has no ambition in all directions, and later spoiled his wife Cai, so that his wife Cai Mao and others gained power, so that Jingzhou itself was not much aggressive.

However, Cao Cao was still afraid, which was an anxiety from the heart.

So, he had already made a decision to set foot in Jingzhou. After leveling Jingzhou, the world will account for more than half, and the princes will fall one by one, and when they will dominate the world, they will be able to sleep well.

On this day, Cao Cao gathered civil and military officials to discuss the southern expedition against Jingzhou.

Xiahoudun naturally knew Cao Cao's thoughts, and immediately said: "Prime Minister, I recently heard that Liu Biao in Jingzhou is dead, and the dragons of the nine counties have no leader, now is a good time to conquer Jingzhou in the south, if it is too late, I am afraid that it will be taken away by Sun Quan Xiao'er in Jiangdong." ”

Cao Ren had this proposal for a long time, and he was also in favor of it with both hands. Cao Cao was happy in his heart, and immediately said: "What the generals said is very much in line with my wishes, Feng Xiahou Dun is the governor, Yu Ban, Li Dian, Xiahou Lan, and Han Hao are the deputy generals, and the army of 100,000 will go straight to Bowang City to get a glimpse of Xinye." ”

Xun Yu had a different opinion: "Lord, although Jingzhou Liu Biao is newly mourned, there are three brothers Duan Dahu and Liu Bei stationed in Xinye City, and now Zhuge Liang is also a military advisor, so you must guard against it." ”

Xiahoudun said proudly: "Liu Bei, I will be captured for the prime minister." Although Duan Dahu is the prime minister's brother, it is really unwise for him to be an enemy of the prime minister, and I have long wanted to fight with him, so as to frustrate his spirit. ”

Although Sima Yi was reluctant, he was still appointed by Cao Cao to the position of "text peng", and at this time to discuss the southern expedition, Cao Cao also called him specifically. Cao Cao asked, "Sima Yi, what do you think?"

Sima Yi said: "I watch the sky at night, the world's luck is in Jingzhou, and it is the best policy for the prime minister to seize Jingzhou." However, the tiger generals of Xinye City are like clouds, and I have my junior brother 'Wolong' Zhuge Liang as a military advisor, I am afraid it is not easy to compete. In the next thought, although Jingzhou is now set up Liu Biao's youngest son Liu Cong as the lord of Jingzhou, there are still many variables, and it is inevitable that Liu Cong, Cai Mao and others will either take refuge in Jiangdong Sun Quan, or cede Jingzhou to Liu Bei, which will be even more difficult to break at that time. ”

Cao Cao said, "What does that gentleman mean?"

"The prime minister sent General Xiahou to the south this time, and he can only be the vanguard. And the prime minister still needs to be strong, and the self-unified army will collect Jiangdong with one hand. However, General Xiahou went on the expedition, but he only said that he would attack Xinye and avenge Fancheng, but he could not say that he had seized Jingzhou, forcing Liu Conggou to jump over the wall in a hurry. After seizing Xinye, when entering Jingzhou, it was still necessary to make an alliance with Sun Quan in Jiangdong to not invade each other, so as not to allow Sun Quan to help Jingzhou. After the prime minister takes Jingzhou, he will share the Yangtze River with Jiangdong equally, and then send troops to Jiangdong at this time, and the world will be decided!"

Cao Cao laughed and said: "Wonderful, wonderful! Zhong Da has seen a lot of subtleties, and he can take a hundred steps in a step, and he is really the first wise man in the world!"

Sima Yi thanked him and said, "The prime minister praises falsely!"

On the top of the hall, Jia Xu and Xun Yu smiled and did not speak.

......

......

In Xinye City, Duan Dahu was personally directing the soldiers to practice martial arts in the school field, but at this moment, a flying horse hurriedly reported: "General, Cao Cao's general Xiahoudun, led 100,000 horses to kill Xinye City!"

Duan Dahu was slightly startled and asked, "Did you tell the military advisor?"

Military advisors, naturally one is Liu Bei, and the other is Zhuge Liang.

The soldier replied, "Not yet." ”

"Quickly go and report to the two military divisions and go to the big tent in the army. Duan Dahu ordered.

When everyone arrived, Duan Dahu said: "Brothers, military advisors, now Xiahoudun is leading 100,000 troops to invade Xinye, I don't know what is the best way to resist the enemy?"

Liu Bei said: "The art of war in the battle formation is not my forte, and it also needs to be planned by Kong Ming." ”

Zhuge Liang said: "Don't panic, I have a strategy to resist the enemy." I'm only afraid that the two generals, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, are unwilling to listen to my orders. ”

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei glanced at each other and were silent. Liu Bei waved his hand and said: "No, no, since the two of them obey orders in the army, the natural military law is like a mountain, whoever doesn't obey the order, I can't spare him first." ”

"That's good. Zhuge Liang said, "Then I will assign the task." ”

At that moment, Zhuge Liang told everyone about the terrain around Xinye, and everyone saw that he had only come to Xinye for a few days, but he was already familiar with the local terrain, and he was also admired.

Zhuge Liang's strategy is actually nothing more than two words: "Fire attack!"

He made Guan Yu ambush on the road that Xiahoudun's army must pass, waiting for the army to pass, but burned his grain and grass; and made Zhang Fei wait for Guan Yu to succeed, so he went to Bowangcheng to burn Xiahoudun's grain; and made Guan Yu's son Guan Ping and Liu Beiyi's son Liu Feng lead the troops to ambush in Bowangpo, and set fire to Xiahoudun when they saw the arrival of Xiahoudun's soldiers and horses.

Duan Dahu had another arduous task: to lead the vanguard into battle, and after seeing Xiahoudun, he was only allowed to lose but not win, and he fought and retreated, leading his army into the encirclement.

"I said Zhuge Liang, you shouldn't have hacked me on purpose, right?" Duan Dahu protested: "I'm a winning general, it's almost the same if you let me only win and not lose, how do you play?"

Zhuge Liang smiled: "I know that Xiahoudun is familiar with you, he sees that you are fighting, he must be meritorious, and wants to win against you, at this time, if you are defeated and retreat, he will definitely not be able to guard against fraud, and he will enter the ambush circle I designed for him." I really can't think of anyone else who can take on this task but you?"

Duan Dahu was not as tendoned as Zhang Fei, and said: "Okay, just do as you say, I'll see if your 'Wolong' is worthy of the name." ”

Zhuge Liang shook the folding fan and said: "I will know after the war tomorrow." ”

Liu Bei asked, "Sir, they all went out to fight, so what should I do?"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "Uncle Huang, I heard that your cooking skills are not bad, tomorrow you will make a banquet for all of us, and it will be regarded as a celebration banquet." ”

"Then you've got the right person. Liu Bei rolled up his sleeves.

"I ordered a leg of lamb. Duan Dahu muttered, "The food in the Japanese army is too vegetarian in the past few days, and a bird can fade out of his mouth!"
