Xiaoguangong

Chapter 132
What Cao Cao was most worried about was that his subordinates would not work hard, and they were afraid of Guan Yu's power and refused to rescue Jiangling.

But he received a military report from Le Jin, saying that Cai Mao had dispatched troops and issued a military order to protect the safety of Jiangling, so that Jiangling would be firmly inserted into the hinterland of Jingnan like a nail, and Sun Liu would never be able to escape. quiet.

Cao Cao was stunned by this, he couldn't help but walked out of the mansion, saw that the sun was indeed in the east, and pulled his beard again, then couldn't help shaking his head.

"It's weird, it's weird. It's really weird, Cai Mao is not at the end of his life, why is that?"

Wang Bi smiled bitterly and said:
"Hey, Cai Hao must have felt that Liu Bei would not let him go if he became big, so he surrendered in advance, so hard.

This person... hey, really damn it. "

From Wang Bi's point of view, the Jiangnan part of Jingzhou needs to be defended now.

Only Xiangyang was left as the fulcrum for the south and the barrier for the north, and the other places were withdrawn to Jiangbei, so as to reduce the loss of soldiers as much as possible. Cao Cao also knew that this method of using troops was more in line with the law of war, and it was very suitable for the current situation.

But now he is an extremely human minister, coercing the emperor to make the princes, in essence, he has completely turned against the emperor.

The so-called sailing against the current is to retreat if you don’t advance. If you can’t make a further step in the position of prime minister, when he dies, the Cao family will always have unworthy descendants, and the big man will definitely liquidate his current sins. Will do it.

To go further, you need enough meritorious service.

Since the unification of the first emperor, the concept of great unification has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

If Cao Cao can't even wipe out the six hegemony and the eight wastelands, what will he have to replace the 400-year-old Han Dynasty.

Now that Sun Quan has been attacking Hefei for a long time, Liu Bei is still far from successful, and the two most critical places in Jingzhou, Xiangyang and Jiangling, are still in the hands of Cao Jun. As long as he recovers, he can still directly deploy the army through Xiangyang and Jiangling. On the battlefield in Jingzhou, he once again attacked Sun Liu, who was more tenacious than any previous enemy, with a posture of overwhelming Mount Tai.

This made him unwilling to give up.

very reluctant.

"Let's see how Cai Mao is.

If he can really do something, Gu will not hesitate to reward him.

Jingzhou... Jingzhou..."

Cao Cao's eyes were burning hot, and he didn't know how to describe this hot land.

I hope Cai Mao didn't lie to him this time.

·
Le Jin was worried at the beginning that Cai Mao was playing tricks, but he never expected that Cai Mao was really careful and took out his collection of elite sailors.

Thousands of sails of the Jingzhou navy raced, and the army sailed down the Han River. Le Jin was also quite envious of watching, and wanted to board the ship and join the battle.

But he was still held back by Ma Liang.

Ma Liang said that Le Jin is the lord of Jingzhou, and he should not be tampered with, otherwise it will be dangerous.

As a well-educated warrior, what Le Jin should do now is to play chess, drink, and chat with the celebrities in Xiangyang every day. He must not be too obsessed with the war, so that he can make people feel that Le Jin is unpredictable and easy to lift.

Le Jin is as good as he is, and accepts Ma Liang's suggestion, everything depends on Cai Mao's performance.

Dangyang is on the north side of Jiangling, not facing the river. At that time, Liu Bei was defeated at Changbanpo outside Dangyang, and fled all the way east all night before reaching the riverside.

Guan Yu has been cruising around the Jingcheng area by the river, preventing Cao Jun's reinforcements from coming ashore from the Han River. Next, he rushed to the Jingcheng area aggressively, to see if Guan Yu dared to confront him.

Guan Yu's men are said to have tens of thousands of people, but they only have a few hundred boats, and they are really at a disadvantage when fighting.

Seeing that Cai Mao led tens of thousands of water troops over, Guan Yu's army could only fight and retreat because they could not launch a fire attack because of the bad position of the water flow.

Cai Mao laughed loudly. He waved the command flag, and his golden drums shook the sky. Yunshan and Huo Jun each led a large boat to surround them, making a gesture of wanting to eat the entire army of Guan Yu's army. Guan Yu had no choice but to order the generals Run quickly in the direction of Xiakou, abandoning the defense around Jingcheng.

As soon as Cai Mao made a move, he easily defeated Guan Yu of the Absolute North Road!
This made Cao Jun cheer up and down, Guan Ping Huo Jun and others shouted General Wan Sheng, Cai Mao was full of ambition and his face was full of glory.Although Cao Pi and Cao Zhi didn't like Cai Mao, they were also relieved.

"Dare to ask the general, why didn't we chase after him?" Seeing Guan Yu fleeing far away, Cao Pi felt a little anxious, and hurriedly asked Cai Mao.

Cai Mao snorted: "General Yun said to chase or not to chase."

Guan Ping laughed and said:

"General Cai is the shepherd of Jingzhou, why do you ask me about this? In my opinion, it doesn't matter whether you pursue him or not.

If General Cai pursues, we will lead our navy to Xiakou to fight Guan Yu; if not, we will rescue Dangyang and join Man Boning.

Mr. Zihuan is well versed in the art of war, what can he teach me? "

The old and the young didn't say anything, and kicked the ball back to Cao Pi's feet lightly, but Cao Pi didn't seem to notice, and there was a smug look on his face.

As Zhong Da said.

As long as I can command the army, even Cai Hao and Le Jin must obediently obey my orders in my capacity, and I will determine the merits of this battle.

However, when it came time to make a decision, Cao Pi was a little hesitant.

This time to repel Guan Yu, if he does not pursue, he will definitely come back another day, and then he will still harass the rear and cut off the Han River, and the credit for this report is no greater than Zijian's previous report for repelling Guan Yu.

If chasing...

Guan Yu has tens of thousands of people under his command, and Xiakou area is their base camp, and there may be reinforcements from Sun Quan. The whole army that was beaten was wiped out.

He struggled with this for a long time, but still gritted his teeth bitterly:
"How about I divide the troops?"

Guan Ping raised his thick eyebrows and praised:

"Sir, you are really smart, I think this method of dividing troops is very good."

Cai Mao also showed a look of sudden realization on his face, and praised in a timely manner:
"What does the little general think is so good about this method?"

Guan Ping said:
"Young Master Zihuan must want me to lead my troops to pursue Guan Yu closely, so as to prevent Guan Yu from leaving and returning.

The son and Cai Shijun stationed in Xiangyang and joined General Manchu to suppress the gangsters in Jiangling.

This method has a certain degree of advancement and retreat, and it has the spirit of a general, it is really powerful! "

Cai Mao also suddenly realized, and praised:

"That's right, Guan Yu's subordinates are all elites in all battles, and General Ke Yun's elites in Shiyang are also quite impressive.

If Guan Yu dared to lead the crowd to fight recklessly, he might lose more than half of his [-] men. If he didn't dare to fight recklessly, how would he cut off the North Road? "

"The thieves in Jiangling have heard that our army has arrived, they must be terrified, and the siege of Jiangling will naturally be lifted at that time.

Mr. Zihuan... Uh, Mr. Zihuan should think so, right? "

Cai Mao and Guan Ping's curious eyes fixed on Cao Pi's face.

Cao Pi was stunned for a while, then slapped his thigh suddenly.

"The two generals won my heart! They are worthy of being the backbone of the Han Dynasty, and the pillars of our army!"

Everyone laughed, Cai Mao immediately ordered all the generals to go ashore, leaving only Yunshan, Huo Jun and others to continue searching along the river to guard Guan Yu.

When going ashore, Guan Ping suddenly had an idea:
"That's right, why don't you ask Mr. Zihuan to write a military report himself."

"Oh? Why is that?" Cai Mao flattered again.

"Before, Mr. Zijian only reported the results of the battle, but the prime minister and the princes in the court did not necessarily believe it.

Mr. Zihuan wrote down the original method of the design and reported it first, firstly to reassure the prime minister, and secondly to let the prime minister see the son's leading talent.When the news of our army's siege spread, the prime minister must applaud the young master for fighting the festival - the young master should think so, right? "

Cao Pi was stunned for a moment, and then slapped his thigh violently. Although he grinned in pain, his face still showed a fanaticism:
"Yes, yes! That's how it should be!"

Cao Pi is open-minded, and he can maintain a good relationship with Chen Lin, who scolded his father, and Jia Xu, who killed his own brother. Naturally, he will not have a huge dislike for Cai Mao. Now he looks horizontally and vertically, what do you think They both felt that Cai Hao and Yun Shan had good looks, and they were indeed the Cao family's loyal, burly fellows, who were far superior to those famous people who chatted every day.

They have clearly expressed their loyalty to me, and it seems that this battle must be extremely successful.

Soon after, I was the hero who repelled Guan Yu, pacified Jingzhou, and rescued Uncle Zixiao. Even if my father likes Zijian, he has to... Huh!

"By the way, there is one more thing." Cai Mao said, "Youchang is Ji Chang's younger brother, if he is in Tan Zhi's army, outsiders will probably say that You Chang's credit is deliberately distributed to him by Tan Zhi.

It's better to practice under Mr. Cao, so that he can learn how to fight, so that he can serve the prime minister in the future. "

Guan Ping smiled and said:
"That's exactly what I mean, Xiaochang is familiar with military books, but he lacks a chance to practice.

Mr. Cao has been fighting since he was a child, and he is quite experienced in the way of using troops. If he advances with you, it will be a happy event! "

"Huh?" Cao Pi was already very happy today, but now he laughed, his brows brows were brimming with joy, and he slapped his thigh hard a few times.

"Okay, okay, okay, there are two generals who are of the same mind, so why worry about the thieves not getting rid of, and why worry about major events not being accomplished!"

Cao Pi danced excitedly, and turned his head to look for Ma Di.

Guan Ping saw that Cao Pi's temper was so interesting, he couldn't help shaking his head, and said softly:
"Mr. Zihuan is also a man of duty. Wouldn't it be good for me to design him like this?"

Cai Mao snorted:
"We are also helping him, and he has to thank us!"

Cao Zhi looked at his brother dancing excitedly from a distance, and suddenly thought of himself not long ago.

When he first came to Jingzhou, he also felt that the heroes of the world were nothing more than that, and he should be the same as Cao Pi now.

The so-called celebrity posture, the so-called romantic demeanor, turned out to be so ridiculous and ignorant in the eyes of outsiders.

Although he didn't know what Cao Pi would face, an idea suddenly came to Cao Zhi's mind.

I'm afraid this battle won't go so smoothly.

Soon Cao Pi will follow in his footsteps.

Yes, he very much believed in it!
