Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1364

It is an irreversible fact that the princes of the world crusade against the Ming country.

And the horn of attack has already sounded.

Outside Luoyang City, soldiers and horses were besieged, including the main force of Hebei, coming down from Hanoi, Chen Bing was on the bank of the Yellow River, and with an order, he could cross the river and go straight to Luoyang City.

The main force of Cao Jun at Hulao Pass and the main force of Yan Han at Hedong.

All are under siege.

The battle of Luoyang is not under preparation, but has already started. The soldiers and horses criss-crossing under the city are provoking the main force of the Ming army in the city every day, and the Ming army also goes out of the city from time to time to fight.

Although it was only a small-scale engagement.

But this is already a warm-up.

Moreover, the main force of the Ming Army's Zhaoming Second Army has already moved northward from Chang'an, and will be stationed in Tongguan in the near future.

In the whole Guanzhong, the main forces of the princes from all sides have gathered, and everyone is sharpening their swords, waiting for the final military order. Once the military order is issued, it will be a fierce bloody battle.

The main core of the crusade against the Ming Kingdom by the princes of the world is the alliance of princes.

The location of the alliance.

Xu all.

Today's Xudu is where the emperor and the imperial court are located. As a place of alliance, it is very suitable. Representatives from all parties have already entered Xudu.

And Cao Cao, at this time, also began to open his fangs.

After negotiating terms with Hebei, the main force of a department has gone south from Guandu, crossed Yanzhou, and then divided the troops from Yuzhou into two directions, one is to Kouxiang Wuguan, and the other is to attack Nanyang.

The troops marched hand in hand.

It is already on the border of the Ming Dynasty.

Moreover, the Ming Kingdom can also feel the huge pressure these days. The people on the border have retreated to the territory one after another. This is the death order issued by the Ming Kingdom. The people who had come all withdrew.

After all, this future will be the main battlefield.

Everyone is waiting for the alliance.

And as the master of the alliance, who single-handedly presided over the joint crusade against the overlord of the Ming Kingdom by the princes of the world, Cao Cao is not at all proud of Zhang Yang at this moment.

It was a heavy thought hovering in the bottom of my heart.

Wei Wangfu, the middle hall.

"Fengxiao!" Cao Cao rubbed his temples with both hands, and after a while, he looked at his confidants, Guo Jia, Guo Fengxiao: "You talk about a battle, what are our chances of winning?"

"Put last year, there may be a [-]% to [-]% chance of winning!"

Guo Jia smiled bitterly: "But now, our odds of winning may only be [-]%!"

"Why?" Cao Cao gritted his teeth.

"Although the princes of the world are united to fight, it is difficult to have a complete heart after all. There is a problem of coordination between each other, and there is no way to coordinate it, which is a huge problem!"

Guo Jia only analyzed it from the perspective of the military division, and said: "Since the Ming Dynasty received the crusade edict, they have not panicked, dispatched troops and dispatched generals, and obviously have the determination to fight to the death. Now they must be united. , this point alone is enough for us to deal with, and the Ming army is the most powerful army in the world, whether it is fighting spirit, military spirit, ordnance, it surpasses us in all aspects. In addition, the Ming army has passed Reorganization will increase the fighting power to a higher level, and the advantage of the terrain is another aspect. It may not be easy to capture the Ming Kingdom. In this battle, the biggest hope I can think of is to defeat Guanzhong and eat Jingxiang!"

"When you say that, I feel a little frustrated!"

Cao Cao said bitterly: "Leave Yuan Benchu ​​alone, use people and efforts, call on the heroes of the world to fight together, but in the end there can only be such a result?"

In today's world, there are no small princes, and the small princes caught in the middle have basically been wiped out. Only the five major princes stand side by side.

Now it's four against one.

In terms of predictions, it is still so desperate. If only the main force of Cao Wei meets the Ming army, is there any chance of winning?

"Your Majesty need not be discouraged!"

Guo Jia cupped his hands and said: "Shoot the top bird. Although the Ming Dynasty is powerful, it has become the target of public criticism. As long as they are suppressed, the princes of all parties will directly consume their main force in the future. If they want to continue to develop, they will inevitably become stronger. Difficulties, but we have enough time to quell the chaos in the world, and when we take advantage of the power of the world and the fury of wind and thunder, we will go straight to the southwest, and even the dangerous places may not be able to stop us!"

What he said was just to comfort Cao Cao.

Speaking of the Southwest Ming Kingdom, the Ming Army is not the most terrifying, but the most terrifying thing is the Ming King Mujing who created the Ming Army with one hand, but is young and frightening.

Even Mu Jing broke out of the desperate situation in Guanzhong. This person has a very strong ability to adapt. Even if he wins this battle and eats up Liangzhou and Jingxiang in Guanzhong, in the end, as long as Mu Jing is relieved, Sooner or later it will be killed.

In fact, the best result is that Mu Jing can be put on the battlefield, so that Mu Ming is nothing to worry about.

Unfortunately, this is very difficult.

Today's Mujing is the famous King Ming, and the guards around him are so meticulous and powerful that it is difficult to take his head even if he is surrounded by thousands of troops.

"Hope it!"

Cao Cao sighed, but he didn't have such optimism in his heart, but he didn't show his thoughts anymore. Now he can't give people a feeling of lack of confidence, even in front of the most confidant advisers.

"Representatives of the various princes have almost arrived in Xudu!" Cao Cao asked.

"Ok!"

Guo Jia nodded: "But if we want them to flock together, we still need to move the emperor out. At this time, we really need the signboard of the emperor, otherwise it will be difficult for them to obey orders!"

"I don't know!"

Cao Cao nodded. Ever since he decided to withdraw troops from Hebei and attack Muming, he made Yelou temporarily give up attacking the emperor. Yelou's plan was temporarily interrupted, but there were still spies keeping a close eye on the emperor. .
The Son of Heaven is not very old, but his thoughts are deep, which makes Cao Cao, a veteran in the world, a little bit afraid. After all, he is the Ninth Five-Year Master who controls the identity of the Son of Heaven.

This identity brought him a lot of convenience. He wanted to recruit his confidantes. This identity alone was enough to make many generals with big hearts bow their heads and obey orders.

Holding the emperor to order the princes has gained a lot of benefits, but Cao Cao also has to bear the troubles it brings.

Yelou stared at the emperor, but how many people the emperor recruited for his own use, even Yelou was not absolutely sure, he could check it out.

"Your Majesty has also been ill for a while, let him go to court!" Cao Cao said indifferently: "I want to see how he plans to deal with the envoys from all directions!"

This is a compromise, but also a temptation.

In the end, what kind of results will be drawn, in the end, it depends on the emperor's reaction.

"My lord, there is some news from the night tower, indicating that the strength of the army and navy has already attacked Jiangdong, and a Ming army navy has entered Jiangdong's territory!"

Guo Jia suddenly reported something, which was the military news reported directly from the night tower in the morning.

"Mu Longtu is a very difficult person to deal with!"

When Cao Cao heard this, he was a little surprised at first, but he soon figured it out. He said with a sneer, "He attacked Jiangdong at this time, and he has grasped the timing very well!"

"First strike is stronger!"

Guo Jia said: "The timing of the Ming army's choice, as well as the decisiveness of the attack, all have to impress us!"

"Wu Guo, is there any news coming out?"

"Temporarily speaking, no!"

Guo Jia said: "But if I were the Ming army, I would definitely not just make small and big troubles. I would definitely have a certain deterrent effect on the Wu country. Even if I sacrificed part of my troops, I would turn the Wu country upside down. Since then, we haven't started a war yet. Let’s cut off the main force first, and it will definitely suppress the morale of the allied forces!”

"Sun Wentai may not be an easy person to deal with!"

Cao Cao thought for a while and said, "The Ming army is indeed the most powerful army in the world, but its influence is limited to infantry battles and sieges. In terms of naval forces, it may not be so powerful!"

"I believe most people think so, even Wu Guo!"

Guo Jia said: "This is the biggest problem. I know my navy is not powerful enough, but I still want to use it to deal with Wu. It can only be said that Ming either has absolute confidence, or has other plans!"

"There is another plan, what is it?"

Cao Cao asked.

"I've thought about it for a long time!" Guo Jia said, "Maybe it's Jianye?"

"Can they take Jianye?"

Cao Cao didn't believe it.

"I can't take it down, but I can directly detain the city!" Guo Jia said: "Jianye is the capital of the Wu Kingdom, and it has only been a long time since the Wu Kingdom was established. There are many internal conflicts and many problems. If the enemy army suddenly comes to the capital at this time, it will undoubtedly be a big deal for the Wu Kingdom. To put it bluntly, it is a direct slap in the face, or a resounding slap in the face, Wu Guo will be desperate to wipe out this force, otherwise he will have no more energy to attack the Ming country with the main force!"

"It's a good strategy!"

Cao Cao gritted his teeth and said, "Throwing a soldier and horse to death is just to step on Wu's face to death. It's a business. No matter how you look at it, Mulongtu is at a loss, but once it can deter Jiangdong, forcing the main force of the Wu army to withdraw back to King Qin, he has gained a lot of advantages, at least the main force of the road is missing, and they are much more relaxed!"

"In the final analysis, we are only guessing now. The specific news depends on Jiangdong's feedback!"

Guo Jiadao: "I have asked Ye Lou to widely spread eyeliner in Jiangdong, and I must report all the accurate news quickly. I believe that in a few days, there will be new news!"

"Ok!"

Cao Cao was not worried about Jiangdong, and it was a good thing that Ming would attack Wu first. As long as the spearhead did not target him first, it would be best for them to fight a few games first to consume the strength of both sides.

"But we need to go faster!" Cao Cao said, "Press the main force on the border of the Ming Kingdom as soon as possible. Once the alliance is established, the attack plan will be unified and the attack will be launched immediately. We can't leave time for the Ming Kingdom to continue to prepare. !"

"Yes!"

Guo Jia nodded.

................................................

Jiangdong.

On the Yangtze River, a group of soldiers and horses went upwind with a fast speed, and went north along Danyang County.

"General Zhonglang, Wuhu is ahead!"

The scout boat reported: "Danyang County soldiers have gathered a lot of ships at the pass set up by the soldiers in front of the ferry. Although they are not warships, there are a lot of them. We will have no problem rushing over there, but it will definitely take time!"

"How long will it take for the pursuers to catch up?" Zhuge Liang's eyes were a little heavy. They were fast and sailed very fast, but they did not get rid of the pursuers.

Zhou Yu's reaction was too fast.

Even if they didn't stay in Zongyang, they were still desperately chased by Zhou Yu's main force. They fought several times, but they still didn't get rid of them.

"120 miles, at their speed, in six hours, no matter what!"

Marching is different from normal speed. The speed of the army itself is a bit slower. Even if it is sailing, there will always be bumps and bumps, which will delay the marching journey.

"Fan Nian!"

"exist!"

"You lead the Seventh Battalion and set up obstacles here. You only need to block them for half a day. Give us a day, and we will definitely be able to rush through!"

"promise!"

Fan Nian took the lead.

"When Wuhu passes, it is Shicheng. After crossing Shicheng, we can enter Jianye City along the river, and enter Jianye City along the river!" Zhuge Liang clenched his fists and said in a low voice, "This battle has reached the most critical moment. , we need to work together to make a great battle and tell the world that my Violent Xiong Navy is no worse than any navy, even the Jingping Navy!"

"war!"

"war!"

The morale of the generals was high, and each one was full of fighting spirit.

What they want to surpass the most is not Wu Guo's navy, but Jingping's navy. Jingping's navy is unknown in the world, but in the Ming army system, it is known as the number one naval force.

They are not convinced, so they want to surpass.

........................

At night, south of Guangling, above the Yangtze River.

A fleet is speeding its march.

boom!
Suddenly, a warship sank under the water.

"Another battleship was broken?" In the cabin, Cai Mao's eyes were a little gloomy, listening to the report from the people below, his heart sank.

It's fine on the sea.

But after entering the Yangtze River, he felt that something was wrong. He was not familiar with the route of this section of the river. The Yangtze River was also a dangerous place. The water was sometimes high and sometimes deep, and sometimes even fighting ships would run aground.

"Yes!"

A school captain said bitterly: "Entering the Yangtze River from the sea, not only the soldiers are not used to it, but even the warships are not used to it. Our warships are basically fighting ships, and they are double-toothed fighting ships, which can be regarded as half of the ships. The ship is building, but now it is still the dry season in the reservoir, and it is difficult to see the terrain clearly when sailing at night, so there are many cases of grounding and grounding. The No. [-] fighting ship of the first battalion hit a stone, and the keel It's all broken, and it can't be repaired!"

"Is there any damage?"

Cai Mao gritted his teeth and asked.

"No battle damage, 12 people were slightly injured, and the water was still not good enough. The water flow was too strong, and they were almost washed away. Rescue was timely, and the injuries stabilized!"

"That's good!"

Cai Hao spread out the battle map, looked carefully, and said: "We should be here now, with Guangling in the north and Dantu in the south, sailing west, entering Jiangcheng, and then entering Jianye, but our Time is running out, one day at most, otherwise our deeds will be exposed and the effect will not be achieved!"

"one day?"

The generals looked at the marching map: "Several hundreds of miles, unless we sail day and night, we may not be able to cover up such a meeting!"

"I couldn't hide it!"

Cai Mao said: "So beating them by surprise is the only thing we can do now, otherwise we will be exposed sooner or later. Once exposed, we will lose the effect of the surprise attack, and we will suffer even more!"
