Three Kingdoms: The rebellious son of the Cao family married the queen at the beginning

"My lord is right, Jingzhou is indeed the most suitable for my lord!"

Then, Du Xi pointed to the map and said: "My lord, look here. The west of Dingtao is Wuyang, and this is the only passage to Nanyang in Jingzhou. If we lose Dingtao, our army's retreat will be blocked." .”

"We want to enter Nanyang County from Runan. The road is difficult and dangerous, which is not conducive to the army and luggage. Dingtao, we must defend it!"

Liu Bei was so startled that his whole body was drenched in sweat. His generals were all guarding the important area, and only Zhao Yan and Liao Hua were guarding Dingtao.

Dingtao's garrison had only 5000 men, which could not stop Cao Cao's army at all.

"What should I do?" Liu Bei looked at Du Xi blankly.

Du Xi said: "My lord, this must be Guo Jia's plan. Relying on their large number of generals, they divide up the attack to divide our army's layout and defeat them one by one!"

"Does the military master have a way to crack it?"

Liu Bei looked forward to it. If there is no way to crack it now, wouldn't he be driven out of Runan by Cao Cao?
"The subordinates can't think of a way to crack it!"

A clever woman can't cook without rice, and Liu Bei has too few people available to stop Cao Cao's multi-faceted attack. The only way to break it is to gather all the defenders and retreat to one place.

Then use the courage of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to break the situation, but if Liu Bei is asked to give up most of the territory, I am afraid he will not agree.

"Hey! The heavens will not bless me, a big man!"

Liu Bei looked up to the sky and sighed, where is the future of the big man, where is his future?
"Report!"

Liu Bei looked at the nervous look on the guard's face, and he knew that this must not be good news.

"whats the matter?"

Liu Bei has nothing to worry about. The worst thing is that Cao Cao leads the troops to the city. This is the best result.

"Xia Yang and Changping discovered Cao Cao's army at the same time, Xia Yang's enemy army was no less than [-], and Changping's army was no less than [-]!"

"hiss!"

Although Liu Bei was mentally prepared, he was still in shock when he heard the news, and Cao Cao hadn't even dispatched yet.

This is how to do……

Du Xi couldn't stand anymore, and sat down on the ground. He thought that Cao Cao had only one army left, but unexpectedly there were two more. What's more frightening was that Cao Cao hadn't shown up yet.

How to fight this battle, it is impossible for them to guard all the places, but every place is so important, once the opponent breaks into it, other places will be at stake.

The five-way army, as long as one of them can't stop it, the enemy can go all the way to Chen County.

What a Guo Jia, what a terrible calculation!

Du Xi felt that he was ten years old in an instant, and playing against such an opponent was undoubtedly seeking his own death.

Du Xi stood up with difficulty and said, "My lord, my subordinates are willing to lead [-] soldiers to guard Xinping and be the last barrier for my lord!"

"Military division sits in Chen County and prepares to go to Xinping to prevent Cao Cao's army from breaking through Yangxia's defense and entering Chen County."

Du Xi hurriedly persuaded: "My lord, don't do it!"

"Military Master, I have made up my mind. There is no need to persuade me anymore. Changping will be guarded by Liu Pi, Fu Shiren and Sun Gan. Yun Chang will be transferred to Dingtao. He must be allowed to guard Dingtao."

As long as Dingtao is guaranteed, they can safely withdraw from Yuzhou and defect to Liu Biao in Jingzhou.

In fact, before the battle started, Liu Bei had already lost, and he was already defeated psychologically.

Cao Cao's strength ranks only fourth among the princes. Dong Zhuo, Cao Shuo, and Ma Teng in front all start with [-] cavalry, and their generals are even more capable of fighting.

If he, Liu Bei, faced these three people, he might have no chance of escaping.

"Report!"

"Cao Cao personally led an army of [-] to attack Dingtao!"

"understood!"

Liu Bei was not so shocked when he heard that Cao Cao had personally dispatched, because shock was useless.

Guan Yu went to help defend Dingtao, and he would definitely be able to hold on for a while.

Even if he loses, there is still a way out!
Du Xi reminded: "My lord, when we go to Xinping, we must not fight to the death. In this battle, our chances of winning are not high. We must save our strength and make a comeback."

"Thank you for your concern, the military commander. I have a sense of proportion. You prepare more supplies for the defense in the city. Once I withdraw from Xinping, Cao Cao's army will definitely pursue me."

Du Xi nodded, and when he was about to leave, a soldier ran in in a panic.

"Report!"

"Ok?"

Liu Bei was surprised, and Cao Cao was dispatched. Could it be that they still had an army that didn't show up?

He calculated that all the generals that Cao Cao could mobilize had come, and he gave up defending his back directly, assuming he let Cao Shuo take it, and wanted to destroy himself.

What else can he do?
Liu Bei looked at Du Xi in puzzlement, but what he saw on Du Xi's face was also consternation.

Du Xi hurriedly asked: "What's the matter!"

"Yin Kui, the envoy of Jizhou, asks to see you!"

"Jizhou envoy?"

Liu Bei was stunned, what's going on?Why did Cao Shuo send envoys to him?
Du Xi's eyes suddenly lit up. This Cao Shuo is very shrewd. He often enters the princes during wars, providing weapons and equipment for various forces and supplies for defending the city.

Could it be that Yin Kui came here to solve their difficulties?
Liu Bei said with a depressed face: "Military Master, this Cao Shuo is too hateful. He knew that our army could not defeat Cao Cao, but he gave us a little hope at this time. After making money, he patted his ass and left, but the final result was nothing. The impact is nothing more than making both parties lose more."

Liu Bei had already seen Cao Shuo's tricks very clearly. Cao Shuo was sure that they were determined to win, so he sent people to sell equipment everywhere.

But this time, Cao Shuo miscalculated, I don't want to win, I just want to survive!

I will never buy your equipment!

Just keep fooling Cao Cao, I will never buy your equipment even if I die.

Anyway, Cao Cao can't be defeated now, we want your equipment to be useful.

"No!" Liu Bei resolutely refused to meet Cao Shuo's envoy.

Du Xi hurriedly persuaded: "My lord, we might as well meet!"

"Why?" Liu Bei asked with displeasure.

"My lord, although our army is bound to lose, we can see what the other party is going to do. If it is not good for us, we can ignore it completely. If the other party can make Cao Cao retreat, wouldn't it be a pity if we missed it?"

Liu Bei thought about it carefully, what Du Xi said made sense, let's see what the other party is going to do first.

Selling equipment, resolutely don't buy it!

"Let Yin Kui in!"

After a while, a thin and frail scholar came to Liu Bei's big tent.

Du Xi asked, "Why did your envoy come to Yuzhou?"

Yin Kui said proudly: "I heard that Cao Cao's army is marching in parallel, and Yuzhou is in danger, so I'm here to sell coffins!"

"Grass……"

Du Xi was furious, this is so fucking arrogant!

To sell coffins at this time!
Do you do any business in Jizhou?

Liu Bei roared with a gloomy face: "Come here, drag him out for me and chop him up!"

Yin Kui laughed out loud without fear.

"Hahaha, even if you kill me now, you won't be able to stop Cao Cao's determination to destroy you. By then, there will be no coffins."

"hateful……"
