Summoning of God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 334 Sneak Attack on Yuan Shaozhi's Quest for Surprise Soldiers
Under Wuguan, Lu Zhishen, as the vanguard, directly led troops to assault Wuguan.

But when he first arrived at Wuguan, Lu Zhishen was stunned and did not dare to attack the city rashly.

Until the arrival of Han Wu's army one day later, even Han Wu couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Choosing to set up camp, Han Wu sighed helplessly.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, all the soldiers were distressed and didn't know how to break through.

Han Wu frowned, and said, "Lu Zhishen, you did a great job. If you attacked the city by force yesterday, I'm afraid your entire army would be wiped out."

Lu Zhishen hurriedly cupped his fists, not daring to admit that he was doing the right thing.

"My lord, the last general also saw that the situation in Wuguan is very similar to that of General Meng Gong when he guarded Gaotang City, so he didn't dare to attack rashly."

Han Wu nodded, he also saw the strangeness of Wuguan.

Dian Wei had already discovered that he had come to attack Wuguan with his lord before, and he remembered the height of the tower of Wuguan.

The current Wuguan has obviously been built in advance to increase the height, and ditches have also been dug temporarily!

Han Wu narrowed his eyes, thought for a while, and said, "It seems that Wen Chou's attack on Gao Tang was not in vain. Meng Gong's ability to defend the city, Wen Chou has really learned superficially!"

"But even this fur is enough to stop my army from moving forward."

Chen Qingzhi was also frowning, not knowing how to defeat the enemy quickly.

Although it is possible to attack Wuguan by force, it will definitely not be taken within five days.

Moreover, the loss of troops may exceed ten thousand!

Losing nearly half of the troops, even if they win Wuguan, it may not be enough to deal a fatal blow to Hongnong's Yuan Shao.

Kuai Yue giggled from the side, thinking, and suggested: "My lord, why don't we ask for help from Cao Jun's general Xia Houyuan who is currently stationed in Xincheng!"

As soon as this remark came out, Chen Qingzhi's eyes lit up, and he thought it was a good plan.

Han Wu narrowed his eyes, but thought that this strategy was not enough to defeat the enemy.

"Kai Yue, it's [-] miles from Xincheng to Luoyang, and the army travels all day and night, so they can't get there in eight days, right?"

Kuai Yue swallowed his saliva and continued: "Master, Cao Jun's Xia Houyuan has always been known as the general of the gods, and the new city is only more than 800 miles away from Hongnong, and Xia Houyuan can arrive there in four days!"

"As long as the lord promises enough benefits with Xia Houyuan, I think he will agree."

Han Wu narrowed his eyes, and after thinking for a while, he was a little moved.

Sighing, Han Wu directly ordered: "Send someone to deliver a letter to Xia Houyuan all day and night! Tell him that as long as he is willing to send troops, if he captures Yuan Shao and his family, it will be a great achievement to go to Cao Cao!"

"Go! Xia Houyuan is a smart man, he can understand what I mean."

Chen Qingzhi thought about it carefully, and seemed to understand the real meaning of the lord.

At first, Kuai Yue thought that the Lord would not agree so straightforwardly, and he prepared a lot of words to persuade him.

Han Wu narrowed his eyes and thought to himself: "Cao Cao, I will give you a big gift!"

"Veterans of the Han Dynasty are your confidantes. They don't support you, but you still have to rely on them."

"If Yuan Shao loses his military power, he can use it for you! At that time, the veterans of the Han Dynasty will naturally fall to Yuan Shao's side, and you can use Yuan Shao to control the entire court!"

After Chen Qingzhi saw the look in the eyes of the lord, he understood what the lord was thinking.

Strategies and struggles in court are bloodless fights, no less than confrontation of soldiers.

Yuan Shao has been defeated since Bohai County, and he has no ability to make a comeback.

Without military power and courage, Yuan Shao will surrender Cao Cao in order to preserve his family background!

What's more, they are friends who have played since childhood, which is different from ordinary people.

And what Han Wu needs is the stability of half of the Sili area.

……

West Shu Chengdu
Sima Yi met Cao Pi alone while Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen were away.

Fazheng followed naturally, and expressed all his speculations about the situation in the north in the past few days.

Both Sima Yi and Fazheng are good at government affairs, and they are not weak in military affairs.

After Cao Pi listened to the speculation of the two, he thought about it.

After being silent for a cup of tea, Cao Pi said: "Zhongda, Xiaozhi, do you think Yuan Benchu ​​will really surrender to my father?"

"After all, Yuan Shao is a feudal lord, and he was the leader of the eighteen princes back then, and the Yuan family is four generations and three princes..."

Seeing Cao Pi's doubts, Sima Yi quickly kowtowed and said, "Young master! Yuan Shao is a good member of the Yuan family, but he has lost the support of the Yuan family."

"The murder of Yuan Kui back then may not have been done by Yuan Shao, but there is no room for discussion."

"Yuan Shao, who has lost the Yuan family's backing and military power, will definitely join the prime minister in order to protect his family. What's more, he and the prime minister are still friends since childhood."

"The loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty are all against the prime minister. The prime minister needs someone who can control the Han ministers and convince them. Yuan Shao is the best candidate. The prime minister will definitely accept Yuan Shao!"

"At that time, if the son can get the support of Yuan Shao, it will be equivalent to the support of the Han officials of the Manchu Dynasty. The son's position from the son of the world will be a step further!"

Cao Pi was thoughtful, and he was indeed a little tempted by this.

At the same time, in Cao Zhi's house, Yang Xiu also told Cao Zhi about it.

For Cao Zhi, he is the weakest party who can compete for the throne.

If he can get Yuan Shao's support, Yang Xiu thinks that at least Cao Zhi can restrain Cao Pi perfectly!
Cao Zhi frowned slightly, and said: "Dezu, I understand what you said, even if I win over Yuan Shao for the sake of my elder brother, I don't have the ability!"

"Second brother has military power in his hands, and Cao Zhen and Cao Xiu also have military power in their hands. They have some excuses to leave Sichuan."

"But we...we don't have military power, so we can't take the lead."

Yang Xiu smiled slightly, narrowed his eyes and looked at Cao Zhi.

With confidence in his mind, Yang Xiu said, "Zijian, you don't have to worry about that. You don't have military power, but your third brother and your eldest brother have military power! Both of them can't lend you their military power, can they?"

"The prime minister is well aware of the three of you vying for the throne. You are the weakest now. Even if you take away Cao Zhang's military power, the prime minister will not blame you."

Cao Zhi sighed helplessly, he actually didn't want to get involved at all.

Inside the Prime Minister's Mansion
Cao Cao chuckled, and glanced at Li Ru and Cheng Yu standing in front of him.

"Come and analyze, what will happen to the battle situation in the Central Plains?"

After hearing the prime minister's words, Li Ru was not impatient, but said first: "Prime Minister, Han Wu will be stopped at Wuguan, and he will persuade General Xia Houyuan to send troops to Hongnong to relieve the pressure on the Jizhou army."

"The prime minister should be ready to welcome Yuan Shao into Sichuan. With him, the prime minister will be able to control the veterans of the Han Dynasty, and the prime minister can also unify the chaotic court."

"What's more, the three sons will try their best to win over Yuan Shao, and the battle between the sons will be very exciting."

Li Ru's words touched Cao Cao's heart, and he couldn't help feeling Li Ru's intelligence!
Li Ruzhi's talent is not inferior to that of Xi Zhicai, and he is even better at intrigue and conspiracies.

The most important thing is that although Li Ru is wise and wise and does not hold any power, he dares to speculate on his own thoughts.

Cao Cao likes Li Ru very much!
Narrowing his eyes, Cao Cao thought: "Li Ru, Li Wenyou! If Dong Zhuo were a wise king, I'm afraid the world would be unified now! However, with you, I can also unify the court!"

With a hey smile, Cao Cao revealed a sly look.

"Zhongde, keep an eye on the gate, don't let Cao Pi and Cao Ang go out of the city. Whatever Cao Zhi wants to do, you just need to give your full support."

Cao Cao nodded, ready to shuffle his three sons.
