Chapter 395
Liu Qi was also extremely displeased, but he dared not speak out, and tried to slow down his tone, saying: "General Guan Yu, the general guard of Yiling sent an urgent report from eight hundred miles away, and Xu Huang, the general under Luo Zheng's command, led an army of [-] troops. Wu Gorge has broken through Zigui, and is heading to Yiling, the gate of Jingzhou is at stake, I wonder if General Guan Yu has a plan to retreat from the enemy?"
Guan Yu snorted again, and said proudly: "Xu Huang is no more than an idiot, so why not be afraid!"
Everyone looked at each other, speechless and unhappy for a while.
Everyone knows that you are brave and brave, and they give you some face on weekdays.
But you should be more modest, even if you look down on Xu Huang, just keep it in your heart, don't say it!
How did Luo Zheng's prestigious name come from?All were killed.
Take a look at the Eight Hundred Li Qiang Plain and the Wanli Desert. The First Emperor did not include these places in his territory.
But now this vast land has all become the territory of the Han people, and all the foreigners are prostrate at the feet of the Han people.
Looking at the princes of the world today, Yuan Shao was defeated by Cao Cao, and Cao Cao's Central Plains was about to be lost. The most powerful prince in the world is Luo Zheng. Xu Huang is the general who guards the gate of Xichuan for Luo Zheng, so it is impossible for him to be an idiot .
Compared with others, what do you Guan Yu have.
If you want military exploits, you don't have military exploits, and if you want fame, you don't have reputation.
Even if you look down on people, you have to have capital yourself!
Everyone was upset, but no one spoke out.
Liu Qi was also very upset, but he had to endure it and asked, "How does General Guan Yu retreat from the enemy?"
Guan Yu said proudly: "The king of Chu does not need to worry, but a certain person led an army of ten thousand and took Xu Huang's head to offer!"
After all, without waiting for Liu Qi to nod his head in agreement, he tossed his sleeves and strode away.
"It's just too presumptuous!"
General Wang Wei of Jingzhou couldn't help jumping his feet, his face turned green with anger.
Liu Qi's complexion was also not good-looking. After being humiliated by Guan Yu in front of so many people, he was so annoyed that he couldn't sit still any longer. The temple closed and complained.
Kuai Yue and the others looked at me and sighed deeply.
Wang Wei jumped and cursed angrily, the fire in his heart not only did not go out, but became more and more intense.
It's a pity that he, a general of Jingzhou, has no military power in his hands, so he can only complain, and he has nothing to do with Guan Yu.
Nanyang, Liu Bei camp.
"My lord, urgent report from Xiangyang!"
Xu Shu hurried into the big tent of the Chinese army and bowed to Liu Bei.
"Oh, Xiangyang?"
Liu Bei was stunned for a moment, and quickly asked, "What happened in Xiangyang?"
Xu Shuning said in a low voice: "The Yiling defenders urgently reported that Xu Huang, Luo Zheng's general, led [-] troops from Sichuan, suddenly sent troops out of the Wu Gorge, and captured Zigui with lightning speed, and now he has led the army to Yiling. "
"what?"
Liu Bei ate and said quickly, "Xu Huang sent troops?"
Xu Shu solemnly said: "Exactly!"
"broken!"
Liu Bei said, "If Yiling is lost, Nanjun will be lost!"
Xu Shu said: "This problem is not too big. General Guan Yu has led [-] troops to Yiling to meet Xu Huang, but Yiling will not be lost. What is troublesome now, news came from Runan that Luo Zheng has already mentioned it personally. The army goes south, Sun Ce can mobilize more than [-] troops after capturing Huainan, he is not Luo Zheng's opponent at all, and most of them will retreat to Huainan."
"Is there such a thing?"
Liu Bei was really surprised now, the news was worse than Xu Huang sending troops.
"Exactly!"
Xu Shu nodded his head.
It was only a little troublesome for Xu Huang to send troops.
And Luo Zheng's personal mention of the army going south means that Cao Cao's general situation is gone, at least for the time being, he can't jump, otherwise Luo Zheng will definitely not lead the cavalry to go south. The strategic significance of this is far greater than Xu Huang's sending troops.
In fact, to put it bluntly, Liu Bei and Sun Ce took the opportunity to run out to fight the autumn wind.
Luo Zheng has been dormant in Guanliang for several years, and his soldiers are strong and strong, and there is enough grass. No matter Liu Bei or Sun Ce, they are much worse than Luo Zhengxiang, and because of the lack of strategic cavalry, they dare not easily provoke Luo Zheng.
The reason why he dared to come to fight the autumn wind was because he saw the opportunity for Cao Cao to restrain Luo Zheng.
If there is no Cao Cao to restrain Luo Zheng's main force, Liu Bei and Sun Ce would never have the guts to come and pull their teeth.Originally, the troops were not as strong as the Xiliang Army. Once Luo Zheng's main cavalry went south, neither Sun Ce nor Liu Bei had the confidence to stop tens of thousands of elite Xiliang cavalry in the flat Central Plains. The only thing they could do was to occupy the city or hold on to favorable terrain.
If you want to take the initiative to attack, if you don't have a considerable number of cavalry to restrain the Xiliang cavalry, the consequences will definitely be very bad.
Once they encounter tens of thousands of Xiliang cavalry in the wild, it will be difficult to retreat back to the city smoothly.
Liu Bei's face was changing, and he was walking back and forth under the tent with his hands behind his hands, but he kept scolding Cao Cao in his heart.
Originally, the purpose of sending troops this time was actually very clear. It was to take advantage of Luo Zheng's invasion of the Central Plains and fight with Cao Cao in the heat of the day. When he had no time to care about him, he took advantage of the situation to take back Wancheng, so that he could rely on it as the gateway to the north of Jingzhou.
Wancheng is a strong city, and its geographical location is also very important.
As long as Wancheng can be strangled, it will be like grasping the northern gate of Jingzhou.
After all, Xinye is a small county. Not only is the terrain flat, but it is also too close to Xiangyang to serve as a gateway.
If possible, join forces with Cao Cao and Sun Ce to drive Luo Zheng back to Guanzhong, so as to gain some opportunities to consolidate his power.
Thousands of calculations, but Luo Zhenghui did not count so quickly to lead the main cavalry south.
Liu Bei was not reconciled. Damn Cao Aman, how could he lose so quickly, he couldn't stop it for three months.
Xu Shu said: "My lord, since Luo Zheng led the main cavalry to go south, Cao Cao's defeat has been decided, and our army failed to capture Wancheng. It is meaningless to spend any more time here. It is better to return to Xiangyang and repel Xu Huang's army. Wait and watch the changes in the Central Plains!"
Liu Bei lamented: "Bei doesn't understand, how could Cao Cao lose so quickly, and couldn't hold on for three months."
Xu Shu solemnly said: "The [-] Cao troops on the front line of Hulao Pass were burned, and even Guo Jia, Xia Houyuan, and Cao Cao's eldest son Cao Ang were all killed in the army. Although Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao's army in the battle of Guandu, the casualties are probably not small. According to From the next point of view, Cao Cao is not completely powerless to fight, but he knows that after the battle with Yuan Shao, it is difficult to resist Luo Zheng's more than [-] troops. It is very likely that he chose to abandon the Central Plains and save his strength. Xu Tu rose again, so he was defeated like this Hurry up!"
Liu Bei gasped: "Cao Cao will give up the Central Plains?"
Xu Shu nodded and said: "It seems that this is probably the case at the moment. Luo Zheng came out in full force. Cao Cao suffered a lot of casualties after the battle. Even though he fought Luo Zheng to the death, the two states of Yanyu were eventually captured by the Xiliang Army. Instead of fighting the last As a bargaining chip, it is better to save some strength and make a comeback, but unfortunately, the estimates before the next one were a little optimistic, so that our army is now very passive."
Liu Bei comforted him: "Yuan Zhi doesn't have to blame himself, who would have expected Cao Cao to abandon the Central Plains so decisively."
Xu Shu sighed and did not speak.
No one expected Cao Cao to abandon the Central Plains so decisively.
Liu Bei asked again, "Where will Cao Cao retreat?"
Xu Shu said: "Outside of Xuzhou, Cao Cao has nowhere to go!"
"Xuzhou?"
Liu Bei pondered: "Will Luo Zheng take advantage of the situation and enter Xuzhou?"
Xu Shu shook his head and said: "Probably not. Cao Cao occupies the Central Plains, and his power in the Yanyu Two States is deeply rooted. Even if Luo Zheng captures the Yanyu Two States, it will not be so easy to stabilize the situation. The Yanyu Two States are not stable. If Luo Zheng continues to march into Xuzhou, he will seek his own death, and as long as Yanyu and Yuzhou are in chaos, it will be difficult for Luo Zheng to gain a firm foothold in the Central Plains."
Liu Bei thought for a while, then sighed: "That's right, if Luo Zheng really dares to be so brave, when the two prefectures of Yanyu and Yuzhou are in chaos, our army can join forces with Cao Cao and Sun Ce to take advantage of the situation and march into the Central Plains, driving Luo Zheng back to Hulao Pass!"
Xu Shu shook his head and said: "Luo Zhengxiong is very smart, and Jia Xu is also very clever, so he probably wouldn't make such a foolish move."
Liu Bei said regretfully: "Yes, it seems that there is no chance for the time being!"
Xu Shu said: "If you want to retreat, you should hurry up!"
Liu Bei is also a decisive person. After thinking for a while, he said decisively: "Okay, I will follow Yuan Zhi's opinion!"
Five days later, at the north gate of Wancheng.
"See your lord!"
Ling Bao led a group of generals to greet him ten miles away, and saluted Luo Zheng respectfully.
"Free gift!"
Luo Zheng waved his hand and didn't get off his horse. He asked in a deep voice: "How is the situation in Wancheng?"
Ling Bao replied: "My lord, Liu Bei led his troops back five days ago!"
"Ran?"
Luo Zheng frowned for a moment, sneered a few times, and said: "Liu Bei has no other skills. He has the ability to play by ear and escape. He made up his mind to run away so quickly, and he is also a character!"
Jia Xu stroked his beard and said, "My lord, this Liu Bei is not easy!"
Luo Zheng said coldly: "This general has long said that this Liu Bei is a disaster just like Cao Aman!"
Jia Xu nodded repeatedly and said: "What my lord said is very true. I must have known the news that my lord led the main cavalry to go south, but he was able to withdraw to Xiangyang so decisively, so it can be seen that he is also an extremely decisive person, and he must not stay!"
Luo Zheng waved his hand and said: "Go, let's talk about Wancheng first!"
Ling Bao hurriedly stepped forward, trying to lead the way for Luo Zheng.
Luo Zheng glanced at Ling Bao, seeing that Ling Bao was getting more and more uncomfortable in his heart. After retreating to the side, his frowning brows gradually relaxed, and his tone slowed down: "Do things with your heart, as long as you can do your duty , is a good job!"
"The last will obey!"
Ling Bao puffed out her chest anxiously, and responded loudly, but she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, face was saved, and no one was ashamed in front of his subordinates.
Everyone loves flattery, but it seems that the protagonist prefers the hardworking type who is dedicated to his duties. It seems that he has to change his strategy in the future, and work hard on this aspect, so as not to flatter the horse's hoof again.
Jia Xu felt relieved, secretly thinking that the master's way of controlling the subordinates is becoming more and more perfect.
If Ling Bao had been reprimanded just now to make Ling Bao unable to step down, no matter what, there would be a thorn in his heart. As time went by, this thorn would take root sooner or later, and it would come out once it had the opportunity .
After all, Ling Bao is not a direct descendant of Luo Zheng, and lacks enough loyalty to Luo Zheng.
If it's a confidant direct line, it's okay to reprimand him head and face.
But when dealing with a Chuan general like Ling Bao who lacks absolute loyalty, he can't just open his mouth to scold, raise his hand and hit him.
However, it seems that except for people like Ling Bao who don't have much ability, but are good at drilling camps, Luo Zheng's confidant generals are not good at flattering, and it is very rare to say a word of compliment occasionally.
It's like Gao Shun, who has never flattered, and doesn't even care about Luo Zheng's face.
Any disagreement is always brought up in person, and will not be euphemistically expressed or beat around the bush.
Such a character is very unfavorable to courtiers, especially generals in command.
If it hadn't been for Luo Zheng, a master who only recognizes abilities, Jia Xu sometimes felt that with Gao Shun's character, he would probably be squeezed out to death under other people's command. Here's the chance.
Wancheng, temporary official residence.
Luo Zheng took off his military uniform and took a nap before feeling much lighter.
After resting for one night, the next day, the soldiers called Jia Xu and Fazheng to discuss the next step of the military strategy.
Fazheng said: "My lord, Liu Bei has retreated now, and I think we don't need to stay in Wancheng. However, the situation in the two states of Yuzhou is still undecided. My lord can leave an army to guard Wancheng and go to Xuchang to sit there!"
Luo Zheng looked at Jia Xu, "What does Wen He mean?"
Jia Xu said: "Xiaozhi is right. The situation in the Central Plains is uncertain, and the army must not leave lightly. At least the situation in the two prefectures of Yanyu and Yuzhou has completely stabilized before the army can return to Guanzhong. Last year, there was a severe drought in the Central Plains. There are people who have no food to eat, and I heard that people starve to death every day, we need to bring food and grass from Guanzhong as soon as possible, and resettle the people to avoid further disasters!"
Fazheng said: "The place where the Central Plains fought the Fourth War cannot be defended without sufficient troops. I thought that two big camps could be built in the Central Plains to house the homeless and foodless people, and to guard the land. Central Plains, save money!"
Luo Zhengdao: "This general also thinks so, but where is the right place to build the camp?"
Fazheng said: "We can build a camp in Nanyang and Yuzhou to prevent Cao Cao, Sun Ce, and Liu Bei from invading!"
"Nanyang and Yuzhou?"
Luo Zheng got up and came to the front of the military map, and said in a deep voice: "Who can guard Nanyang?"
Fazheng said: "It must be General Zhao Yun!"
Luo Zheng pondered for a while, before saying: "Forget it, let Gao Shun and Zhao Yun set up camps in Yuzhou and Nanyang, each recruiting [-] young and strong for training. The army will return to Guanzhong before winter, let them hurry up."
Jia Xu said: "My lord, Xu thinks it's time to move Luoyang!"
Fazheng was stunned for a moment, then understood in an instant, and quickly nodded to attach himself.
"Ok?"
Luo Zheng frowned and thought about it, carefully considering the pros and cons of it.
Luoyang can be said to be the center of the world. Geographically speaking, both as a political center and a military center, it has certain advantages, while Chang'an has been invaded by ethnic groups outside the Great Wall since its establishment in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the society has been in turmoil. This is extremely detrimental to the stability of a regime, and moving to Luoyang is indeed a good choice.
However, Luo Zheng felt that Chang'an was more suitable than Luoyang as the center of the Xiliang Military Group.
