Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 499 Liu Qi's Worries

Puyang Prefect's Mansion
After a day of rest and congratulations, the soldiers of the Han army were also in high spirits, and it was time to think about the future.

Liu Qi, Guo Jia, Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, Ma Chao, Dian Wei, Pang De, Jiang Wei, the prefect of Puyang, and others also gathered in the meeting hall of the prefect's mansion.

"After resting, the soldiers have regained their spirits. Now, it's time to consider how to march!" Liu Qi glanced at the crowd and said, "What do you think should be done next?"

"My lord, the king of Qi was defeated and fled, leading the remnants of the army to Nanpi. According to the distance, he will soon join Zhang Fei who is attacking Puyang. Although it is a remnant army, joining together can also increase the strength of the Qi army. The subordinates think that they can directly send troops to Nanpi and fight the Qi army!" Guo Jia stood up and said.

Liu Qi also nodded in agreement.

Originally, Wei Yan led soldiers and horses to garrison Nanpi. In terms of strength, the army led by Zhang Fei was smaller than the army led by Zhang Fei. Now that there are more than [-] Qi troops, there will be pressure.

Moreover, it is also necessary to drive the Qi army out of Jizhou, and it is best to be able to annihilate them all.

"What Junshi Guo said is true!"

Zhuge Liang also stood up, waving his feather fan, and said: "My lord, with the current momentum of our army and Nanpi's defenders, we can completely defeat the Qi army and drive the Qi army back to Qingzhou. If there is a crisis in the Qi army, then Guan Yu, who is guarding Dongjun, will definitely come to the rescue because of his character, so General Huang and Zhang will have the opportunity to attack, take back Dongjun, and then implement secret arrangements!"

"Subordinates wait for second!"

Pang Tong and others also agreed with the words of Guo Jia and Zhuge Liang.

They also believe that it is most appropriate to remove the threat of the Qi army first.

"In this way, let's gather soldiers and horses, march into Nanpi first, cooperate with Chief Wen, eliminate the Qi army, and then lead the troops back to help everywhere!" Liu Qi finally decided.

And this is the most suitable method.

If you don't disable the Qi army first, even if you lead the army to support Yizhou, Jingzhou, Jiaozhou and other places, if you have the opportunity, Liu Bei will continue to lead the army to attack his territory.

"No!" Everyone responded.

Liu Qi looked at the prefect of Puyang, and said: "When the army moves out, the stability of Puyang will be in your hands again, and after changing hands, there will inevitably be some problems, I hope they can be dealt with properly!"

"Your subordinates will live up to your trust!" the prefect of Puyang said solemnly.

Liu Qi also nodded, glanced at the crowd, and said: "So let's go down and make arrangements. After burning incense, we will march to Nanpi!"

"promise!"

Everyone also bowed their hands and retreated one after another.

The same is true for Jiang Wei, after all, he is planning to leave with Liu Qi and no longer stay in Puyang.

But Guo Jia did not leave, but stayed in the meeting hall.

Wait for everyone to leave.

oh~~
Liu Qi also let out a sigh.

"Is your lord worried?" Guo Jia asked.

Liu Qi didn't refute either, but nodded and said: "Indeed, although our army is not afraid of the Qi army, let alone the Qi army has lost morale in the face of our army after repeated defeats, this time marching into Nanpi, we are not afraid of failure. , will be able to retreat the Qi army!"

Although there is worry, the words are still full of confidence.

heard.

Guo Jia also nodded, and he could understand that Liu Qi's worry was not about whether he could retreat from the Qi army.

"Now Jiangxia has Xingba, Ziyi, Wenhe, and Xiaozhi. Even if they can't retreat the [-] Jiangdong navy, there will never be any problems; and Jiaozhou has the second son, and Jiaozhou can be safe; Yuzhou has General Zhao. , and can be completely at ease; in this way, the only thing my lord is worried about is the situation in Yizhou!" Guo Jia analyzed.

"What Feng Xiao said is true!" Liu Qi did not intend to hide anything, and continued: "Although I have left an arrangement in Yizhou, even so, I still feel uneasy in my heart. Such an arrangement also has great consequences. If the Fushui pass is lost, then Yizhou will be in danger!"

You must know that Cao Cao personally led an army of 30 and headed straight for Fushui Pass. It would be a lie if he said he was not worried.

After listening to Liu Qi's words.

Guo Jia also became silent, and he was able to guess a thing or two about Liu Qi's arrangement.

Don't talk about Liu Qi.

In fact, he is also worried. After all, such an arrangement is also very risky. If he makes a wrong step, the whole Yizhou will also fall into the hands of Wei Jun.

The soldiers and horses in Yizhou could only retreat to Jingzhou.

But there are also great benefits in it, just like today, if it can be defeated or wiped out the Qi army that attacked Nanpi, even Liu Bei can finally escape back to Qingzhou.

Within two years, Liu Bei was no longer able to contend for hegemony in the Central Plains.

And with two years, it is enough for Liu Bei to withdraw from the stage of fighting for hegemony in the Central Plains.

Such an arrangement is to exchange the entire land of Yizhou.

"My lord, why don't you let General Ma lead [-] soldiers and return to Yizhou as soon as possible, just in case something happens, and based on the situation of our army, it is enough to take down the Qi army when we meet with Nanpi's defenders!" Guo Jia suggested .

Liu Qi's eyes lit up, but it quickly disappeared.

Shaking his head, he said: "Although this can ensure that Yizhou will be able to cope with changes, but in this way, the situation here will not be stable. You must know that Zhang Fei is in command of more than 20 Qi troops. Those who escaped from Puyang also had about [-] troops, and if the situation is critical, Guan Yu may lead his troops to come, so it will be full of variables!"

"If you can't wipe out the vital forces of the Qi army as much as possible, then Liu Bei also has the opportunity to make a comeback. When the battles are stalemate everywhere, he will continue to lead his troops to come again!"

"The only way now is to get rid of the Qi army attacking Nanpi as soon as possible. As long as the speed is fast enough to end the battle here before the Wei army breaks through the Fushui Pass, then the victory still belongs to us, and the remaining arrangements are also Can last for a while!"

"But it won't be too long, the rest is to see how the battle here is!"

Done.

There is also a flash of light in the eyes.

He also knows that this plan has great risks.

If he only defended, he would not be afraid of the attacks of Cao Cao, Sun Quan, and Liu Bei at all, but he was not willing to just defend, but to attack.

Moreover, once successful, there is no longer any fear of joining forces with the three parties.

What's more, the three parties will not join forces sincerely, and this is also his opportunity.

heard.

Guo Jia nodded, then shook his head, looking a bit tangled.

"Don't worry, even if we lose Yizhou in the end, it won't have too much impact. We are still on the favorable side. What's more, the result is still unknown!" Liu Qi said.

Now that Liu Qi has said so.

Guo Jia didn't bother with this issue any more, and he also understood the key point.

immediately.

The two of them didn't speak any more.

Waiting quietly for everything to be ready, he led the army to set off.
