Summoning of God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 443 Storming Tianshui

Outside Xiabian City, Yang Xiu and Ding Yi rode their horses to follow Cao Zhi's horse, and led an army of [-] to Tianshui for support.In less than two days, the army will reach Tianshui. Before that, they had to rush out of Sichuan day and night.

"Hey! This Cheng Yu is really annoying. Relying on the trust of the king, he ordered us not to rest day and night. Now I am so sleepy that I can fall asleep on the back of the horse." Ding Yi sighed helplessly, he almost felt Without the existence of his legs, his lower body was completely numb.

Cao Zhi is kind-hearted. After all, Ding Yi is his subordinate officer, and the rushing day and night before has indeed exhausted the three armies. It is time to take a rest.

"Dezu, the three armies are exhausted now. If the Wenpin army waits for work, we will be defeated. Why don't we let General Lingbao order an hour's rest before marching?" Cao Zhi asked Yang Xiu for advice. In fact, he also wanted to rest.

Yang Xiu narrowed his eyes, thumped his thigh, and sighed, "My lord, it's not a simple fight for the crown prince, but a fight for Tianshui! With Tianshui County here, the Yongliang army can't threaten Yizhou. In the absence of Tianshui County, the king will need to send heavy troops to guard Yangping Pass, and the fertile land north of Xiabian City will not be able to grow food and grass. Xiabian cannot be lost, General Cao Ren is waiting for reinforcements, and Cheng Junshi's order to rush is correct. "

Ding Yi still complained: "But this old guy Cheng Yu is too thieves, he actually took a rest in the next debate, we have to rush to Tianshui."

"No! Military division Cheng Yu's prestige in the army is no less than that of General Cao Ren. If the two of them are in Tianshui, they will influence each other and check each other. Dispute is the most important thing in our army. We must have a man of high morals and prestige who understands the art of war." Army division Cheng is the most suitable candidate." Yang Xiu narrowed his eyes and began to plan how to retreat from the enemy.

Ding Yi was still puzzled, and said: "Even so, even if our army of more than 1 people arrives in Tianshui, how can we be the opponent of Wen Pin and Xu Rong?"

Cao Zhi was also a little puzzled. He thought that the troops sent by his father were still insufficient, and even the third brother Cao Zhang came to help, but it still didn't help.

"Yes! That's the problem. After all, there are generals from the Jin State who are trying to conquer the countries in the Western Regions, and their forces are too scattered. Ding Yi, after you arrive in Tianshui, you can take a day off and become a lobbyist with the Qiang people. Bring money, Remember to protect yourself first. As long as the Qiang people promise not to help the Jin army, it will be fine." Yang Xiu narrowed his eyes, and he thought of a strategy to retreat from the enemy.

And this strategy can't be told to Cao Zhi, because this battle is not only for the outside world, but also for the prince!

Two days later, Cao Zhi's army arrived in Tianshui City. They couldn't help but feel emotional when they saw such a bloody endgame here.

Cao Zhi fought with his father since he was a child and saw bloody scenes, so naturally he had little influence.

Both Yang Xiu and Ding Yi retched, they didn't expect that the description of blood flowing into a river was not an exaggeration!
"Hahaha! Good nephew, you have arrived so soon, hurry up and rest in the city!" Cao Ren greeted Cao Zhi himself, and he was overjoyed now.

Originally thought that if we defend the city for another day tomorrow, the city would be destroyed. Unexpectedly, Cao Zhi sent troops to support at this time.

Cao Ren knew in his heart that if he wanted to get here from Yizhou in five days, he would not only need to travel by night and starry sky, but also need a large army to travel in a hurry.Cao Zhi must have been exhausted, and Cao Ren was very grateful.

"General Cao, I have already thought of a strategy to retreat from the enemy. I also asked the general to write a letter, agreeing that I will go to the Wenpin camp in three days to be a lobbyist. At that time, I will also invite General Wenpin to Chen Bing outside the city to frighten the Jin army. "Yang Xiu's eyes were black, and he was so sleepy that he almost fainted, but he still wanted to ask Cao Ren first.

Cao Ren froze for a moment, and said, "Zijian, is this your counselor Yang Xiu? Ah! I won't ask any more questions. I'll take care of this matter. Go and rest quickly! I'll take care of the ten thousand soldiers. Don't worry! Let Ling Bao be my deputy, and the water in the sky will be as strong as gold!"

Ding Yi was taken aback by Cao Ren's words, he thought it was inappropriate.The military power was taken away directly, which is too inconsistent with the system.

"Ding Yi! Don't talk, go to rest!" Yang Xiu glared at Ding Yi, telling him to do what he should do.

Yang Xiu knew well that although he was not weak in resourcefulness, leading troops was not his strong point.Now that General Cao Ren is willing to lead 1 more troops, it is naturally a good thing.Moreover, the current enemy is not the time to stabilize individual rights.

"Dezu, you guys go to rest too! I'm going to chat with my uncle, and I'm leaving." Cao Zhi smiled kindly and asked Yang Xiu and Ding Yi to leave first.

One day later, in Wenpin's camp, he received a letter from Cao Ren.

"Hiss... this matter is not easy to handle! Ten thousand troops, plus Cao Ren's elite, it will be very difficult to conquer the city. But it is unreasonable to return without success like this! Somebody, go and report this matter To General Xu Rong, let him send a cavalry to increase his troops." Wen Pin frowned, the current situation is a bit troublesome.

"The army rested for three days, lobbyists will come in a few days, and the situation will be rushed to Xudu at eight hundred miles." Wenpin dared not make his own decision, whether to withdraw the army or continue to attack, His Royal Highness must be informed by the king and the crown prince.

In Xudu City, Han Wu frowned when he received an urgent report from Yongliang.

"Feng Xiao, Cao Cao asked Cao Zhi to send troops, and there were only [-] elite troops. Doesn't this wife look down on my Yongliang army?" Han Wu was very angry, and was about to order a storm to attack Tianshui.

Guo Jia frowned, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Not necessarily. Cao Zhi is the general who will support Tianshui this time, and he is Cao Cao's son. The crown prince of Qin is uncertain, which is a big weakness. If Cao Zhi In order to win the battle for the crown prince, the counselor Yang Xiu, what strategy does His Royal Highness think he will come up with?"

Guo Jia thought of Yang Xiu's plan halfway through speaking, and at the same time asked Han Wu with great interest.

Han Wu narrowed his eyes and followed Guo Jia's train of thought and said: "The fight for the crown prince is nothing more than defeating Cao Pi. Cao Zhi's power is weak, so he must build momentum. Strengthening himself means retreating from our Yongliang army without bloodshed. Weakening Cao Pi , that is... let Xia Houyuan and Ma Chao be defeated?"

Suddenly thinking of the White Robe Army, Han Wu asked involuntarily.

"That's right! Xiahouyuan and Cao Hong are Qin clan generals who supported Cao Pi, and their prestige in the army is extremely high. Although Xiahoudun is a general of Qin, he directly belongs to Cao Cao. If the white robe army defeats Xiahouyuan and Cao Hong, or Ma Chao, that is to slap Cao Pi in the face in front of the people of Qin State. Then Cao Zhi’s soldiers will retreat from our army’s Yongliang soldiers without bloodshed, and naturally their reputation will be greatly shaken!” Guo Jia nodded and explained.

After listening to Guo Jia's explanation, Han Wu smiled disdainfully, thinking that Yang Xiu was really naive.If there is no skin, how will the hair be attached?Even if he succeeded in making Cao Zhi the next king of Qin, it would be nothing more than Jin ruling the world.

"Forget it! Let Yang Xiu and the others fight to see if Sima Yi is stronger or Yang Xiu is slightly better! Let's just sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight and watch a play! The order of the Eastern Palace is sent to order Wenpin to withdraw his troops for [-] miles and temporarily station in Yongzhou. Liang. I want to know the deployment of Xia Houyuan and Cao Hong's troops, as well as the date of their return." Han Wu turned around and asked Guo Jia to handle the matter.
