The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 427 Cao Cao's determination

Although Cao Cao didn't care about Chen Ziming's approaching Luoyang on the surface, he was actually very anxious in his heart. One was that he was afraid that Chen Ziming would really win Luoyang, and he would be in a dilemma. Cao Cao was very afraid in his heart.

The second is to know the battle situation in Luoyang. If Chen Ziming can be captured by this opportunity, regardless of life or death, it will deal a huge blow to Liu Bei.

Cao Cao has been thinking about whether to give up here and lead his troops back to deal with Chen Ziming first, but if he did so, he would fall into Chen Ziming's plan. Still big.

"My lord, General Yu Jin came to report. Zhao Yun and Tian Feng's many designs caused damage to his soldiers and horses. General Yu Jin asked my lord to end the battle of Jingyang as soon as possible and go to Liangzhou to preside over the overall situation."

As Cao Cao's most important adviser, Xi Zhicai had to remind Cao Cao what is the most important thing. Although Chen Ziming is powerful, he is only Liu Bei's subordinate. If Cao Cao wants to compete with Liu Bei, he should take a long-term view.

For example, now, Cao Cao should not continue to think about Chen Ziming's affairs, and should leave these matters to his generals. Cao Cao should complete this strategic goal as soon as possible, which is to win Liangzhou and Hanzhong, so as to win the battle with Liu Bei. capital.

"Send someone to order Qiu Liju, if Jingyang City cannot be conquered within three days, tell him to take his men back to the grassland." Cao Cao understood Xi Zhicai's meaning, and immediately calmed down.

"Order Xia Houyuan to mobilize troops. If Qiu Liju fails to capture Jingyang City after three days, he will lead the troops to attack the city. Jingyang City must be captured within one day." Cao Cao is no longer giving Qiu Liju a chance, because he is already there It has been too long outside Jingyang city.

"It was ordered that Xiahou Dun's army be ready to be ordered. If Qiu Liju doesn't obey the order, he will lead people to kill Qiu Liju and destroy Qiu Liju!" Cao Cao's eyes flashed murderous intent. He has always regarded Xianbei soldiers as cannon fodder to consume the enemy's strength. Now cannon fodder is not very effective, and it is starting to disobey orders, so there is no need to keep it.

"Command Chang'an Xia Houshang to raise food and grass. After I break through Jingyang City, I will lead the army to Fufeng and attack Liangzhou with Yu Jin's army."

Cao Cao's orders came out one after another, and his generals began to mobilize their troops. In three days at most, they will end the battle of Jingyang and transfer the battlefield to Liangzhou. As for Qiu Liju, no one takes them seriously. After all, the current Xianbei The soldiers and horses suffered heavy losses, and their combat effectiveness was not in the eyes of their group of Cao Jun generals.

Qiu Liju, who received Cao Cao's order, had no choice but to lose [-] soldiers and horses outside Jingyang City, but he just couldn't get in. Now Xianbei soldiers and horses are exhausted, and all the food and grass are provided by Cao Cao. He quietly let people stock up Some, just in case, but not enough to consume more than [-] soldiers and horses.

"Come here, order Liu Bao to attack Jingyang within three days, and I will execute all the Huns." Now Qiu Liju didn't care whether Liu Bao rebelled or not, because he knew that Cao Cao had lost his patience, and this time Cao Cao came for real. Cao Cao mobilized his troops and horses, but he did not hide it from Qiu Liju.

"Langni, gather Xianbei warriors and attack the city with Liu Bao tomorrow. Anyone who retreats, regardless of Huns or Xianbei warriors, will be killed!" Qiu Liju was also cruel. If Jingyang is not broken, Cao Cao will not let go. Those who have surpassed him, now is not the time to reserve strength.

"Sir, it's not an option to go on like this. If we don't send troops to reinforce General Quyi, Jingyang may be in danger." Zhao Yun looked exhausted, and discussed with Tian Feng, trying to find a way to reinforce Quyi in Jingyang.

"It's difficult." Tian Feng is not much better, he can't rest for a long time, as a scribe, he has not fallen down now, it is already very difficult. "Yu Jin is a famous general in the world. He has courage and strategy, and he has counselors like Zhong Yao to help him. What can I do?"

"Yu Jin is really disgusting. I will bring a large army to attack if I have a slight mobilization of soldiers and horses. I will not be given a chance to go to Jingyang for reinforcements." Guan Ning was full of anger, Zhao Yun gathered the soldiers and horses of the entire Liangzhou here, I just want to defeat Yu Jin in one breath, so as to lead troops to reinforce Jingyang.

But Yu Jin never fought a decisive battle with Zhao Yun. Anyway, he just held Zhao Yun back and didn't give Zhao Yun a chance at all. Zhao Yun's division of troops to Jingyang would also be blocked by Yu Jin's troops.

"The big man lacks food and grass, so it is not suitable to mobilize the army. It is meaningless to guard Jingyang..." Tian Feng and Chen Ziming had the same meaning, hoping that Qu Yi would give up staying in Jingyang, so as not to increase casualties.

"Jingyang is an important place. Without His Majesty's imperial decree, how could he give up so easily." Zhao Yun shook his head helplessly. Although he is the commander of Liangzhou, he still cannot order Qu Yi to guard Jingyang, let alone make Qu Yi abandon Jingyang.

"Cao Cao blocked the main road, and it is difficult for His Majesty's imperial edict to pass on. Now we have to wait..." Cao Cao has grasped Liu Bei's weak point, that is, Liangzhou is far away from Liu Bei's rule, and Liu Bei wants to pass the order to Liangzhou , Either pass through Cao Cao's territory, or detour to the north.

Now that Cao Cao blocked these roads, Liu Bei's military orders couldn't get through at all, and they couldn't get in touch with Liu Bei.

"You can't just sit and wait, now you can only take risks!" Tian Feng looked at the generals helplessly.

"Order, sir!"

Zhao Yun and others know that now is the time to desperately.

"General Zhao Yun, starting tomorrow we will lead our troops and horses to attack Yu Jin's camp with all our strength. We don't need to achieve great results, we just need to let Yu Jin have no time to be distracted."

"General Zhang Xiu, there are five thousand strange soldiers hidden in the upper reaches of the Wei River. You take the military order and go to this place, mobilize troops and horses, go down the river, break through Xianyang, and attack Chang'an. If you break through Chang'an, you will be cut off from the forbidden grain road, causing the army's morale to be in chaos. I'll take the opportunity to break it."

"Don't give up!"

Zhang Xiu is not a person who is afraid of death, of course he knows the danger, but he did not hesitate at all, and immediately took orders to go.

"It's up to man to make things up to heaven..." Seeing all the generals leave, Tian Feng sighed helplessly, just as Tian Feng said, this move is really dangerous, Zhang Xiu's five thousand soldiers If Ma Ruo revealed his whereabouts in advance and waited for their entire army to be wiped out, and even if Zhang Xiu had miraculously defeated Zhang An, it would be difficult for Zhang Xiu to leave after the imperial army retreated.

"Mr. Ziming, how should we break this situation?"

Tian Feng suddenly thought of Chen Ziming, that young talent who created countless miracles.I hope that this time, Chen Ziming will also be able to make a surprise plan like before, defeat powerful enemies, and save the big man from danger.
