The Rise of the Song People of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 898
When Cao Cao was discussing where to go in Kuozhou, the 29-year-old Sima Yi showed his majesty!

Sima Yi's plan for Cao Cao, the Liao Kingdom was restrained by Lu Heng's Song Dynasty and no longer dared to send troops wantonly. Cao Cao himself moved to Hanzhong to fight against Du Gao, and he could still deter Guanzhong.

Hanzhong is the biggest weakness of Cao Cao's current territory, and it is the kind of weakness that cannot be bypassed and must be targeted. Hanzhong will lose everything.

Compared with Xun You, Cheng Yu and others who emphasized the strength of Song Dynasty, Cao Cao wanted to fight Da Song even more!
Just like everyone in the original time and space was not optimistic about the battle between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao at Guandu, Cao Cao decided to fight the strong with the weak!

Boss Cao had such boldness that he was able to defeat Yuan Shao and destroy the Yuan family in the original time and space. Now he also surrendered without fighting Da Song. Cao Mengde refused to accept it.

So what Cao Cao wanted to hear was how to fight the Song Dynasty instead of blindly seeking stability. Only Sima Yi saw this problem.

Just when Cao Cao was overjoyed by Sima Yi's plan, he suddenly sent an order to report: "Send an urgent report to the lord Guanzhong!"

"Quick report from Guanzhong?" Cao Cao suddenly had a bad feeling about the news.

When Boss Cao saw the urgent report, his face became more and more grim: "Yang Biao! I can't wait to wipe out your whole family as soon as possible! Ah!"

Cao Cao felt that his head, which had been aching slightly, was now in more pain as if it was shattered, and he passed out with a cry of "Ah!"

There was a panic in the audience. Cao Cao's head wind disease has been incurable until now. Boss Cao, who is 53 this year, is actually no longer young.

Cao Pi immediately asked the doctor to treat Cao Cao, and then everyone was worried about what news made Cao Cao angry again.

Xun You, Cheng Yu and other high-level executives could still read the news, but when they saw the news, their expressions were very bad.

I saw the news that when Emperor Lu Heng of the Great Song Dynasty arrived in Bingzhou and headed for Hanoi, Yang Biao, the head of the Hongnong Yang family, rebelled and sacrificed the entire Hongnong land boundary, Pubanjin and Tongguan, two important passes in Guanzhong, to rebel.

Lu Heng immediately ordered Li Baojinfan Battalion to leave Pujin Pass, and the three armies of Li Jilong, Murong Yanzhao, and Xiongnu Battalion entered Hongnong through Pujin Pass and Tongguan.

Hongnong is just like Hanzhong is the throat of Cao Cao's forces, Hongnong is the throat of Sili, which is in the middle of Luoyang and Chang'an. The danger of Tongguan will make the original time and space Ma Chao fail to attack many times and be blocked in Tongguan.

And the famous Hangu Pass is that Cao Cao ordered the construction of Tongguan and abandoned Hangu Pass, connecting the Hongnong area with Luoyang. After all, Luoyang was burned into ruins by Dong Zhuo, and the Hongnong area was needed to feed Luoyang.

Now the loss of Hongnong is even more serious than the loss of Jieting by Ma Di in the original time and space!
First of all, it is certain that Guanzhong will not be guaranteed.

Secondly, Cao Cao did not leave many troops in Chang'an area, but instead trapped Xiahou Dun's army in Luoyang.

The loss of the entire Guanzhong made Cao Cao's remaining territories in Zhongtu, such as Hanzhong, Yizhou and other places, like tasteless!
Hanzhong's weaknesses are too obvious, and it makes no sense for Hanzhong to lose those territories in Yizhou and become an enclave.

It can be said that Yang Biao's rebellion directly hit Cao Cao's seven inches above. Even if Cao Cao arrived in Hanzhong according to Sima Yi's strategy, because Hongnong lost Xiahou Dun's army and was trapped, Chang'an had no danger to defend, and people must be panic.

This means that Cao Cao lost the chance to fight Lu Heng's Great Song!

Xun You and Cheng Yu's faces were very ugly, and Sima Yi's eyes were rolling around in thought. Xun You told Zhang Ji: "De Rong (Zhang Ji's character De Rong) communicated with Zhao Defang and asked Lu Heng why he suddenly occupied Hongnong."

Even though Xun You knew that it was meaningless to inquire about the Song Dynasty, it was an expression of continuing diplomatic negotiations rather than a direct war. Otherwise, Xiahou Dun's army would be wiped out and worse news would come one after another.

Sure enough, before Cao Cao woke up, Zhang Ji came back with an angry expression on his face. Zhao Defang made it very clear that His Majesty Song had indeed said that he would not send troops to attack when Cao Cao and the Liao people were fighting.

But now that the Liao people have retreated, Duke Cao is not fighting Liao, and the Hongnong Yang family hopes that the unification of China will no longer be divided, and take the initiative to seek refuge in Hongnong, who was not captured by the Song Dynasty.

This means that the world is determined, and everyone wants to unify instead of starting another civil war. Now that Liangzhou has returned to the embrace of China, the people in Guanzhong, Hanzhong, Yizhou and other places also hope to be unified.

In the end, Zhao Defang even said that His Majesty did not take advantage of the emptiness in Hanzhong to let Marshal Du Gao send troops to attack.

Zhao Defang repeatedly emphasized that although the words of unification are a bit unreasonable, it is true that Yang Biao did not rebel when Cao Cao and Yelu Abaoji were fighting, but after the Liao people retreated.

Lu Heng was not Hongnong who took the initiative to attack, but this incident happened suddenly when he planned to return to the imperial court.

That's right, Lu Heng also felt that it was very sudden. When he arrived in Bingzhou and was about to enter Hanoi, he suddenly received an urgent report from Yang Xiu that he had taken down Tongguan and Pujinguan.

This was an important opportunity to break through Guanzhong. Lu Heng immediately diverted Li Bao, Li Jilong, Murong Yanzhao, and the Xiongnu camp to enter Hongnong from the Yellow River.

Lu Heng immediately realized that this was an opportunity to defeat or force Cao Cao to withdraw from Zhongtu, and immediately contacted Zhang Wei, Zhang Liao, Zhang Jie and others to block Hulao and Mengjin, preparing to trap Xiahou Dun's army to death, and Du Gao was ready to send troops to Hanzhong at any time.

The reason why there is no undeclared war is because of waiting for news from Zhao Defang.

And Yang Biao's move was planned for a long time. Some people should remember that from the beginning Lu Heng planned to destroy Cao Cao instead of Xixia, but the preparation work and the army did not slacken.

Yang Xiu still contacted his father, Yang Biao. The latter also knew that this was the last chance for him and the Yang family, otherwise he would be completely tied to Cao Cao. In the past two years, Cao Cao has fully experienced the fear of Yang Biao from the Yang family.

In the past few years, all the policies of the Song Dynasty have been passed on to the Yang family one by one. Yang Biao knows what the new policies of the Song Dynasty mean to the Yang family. After weighing the pros and cons, Yang Biao feels that he has to gamble for the Yang family. .

Yang Xiu has already entered the political arena of the Great Song Dynasty, and Yang Biao believes that with the support of the Yang family, Yang Xiu can go further.

So Yang Biao chose the most suitable time node. There is no nominal problem when Cao Cao repelled the Liao people and stopped fighting. It was when Cao Cao was weakest.

Lu Heng destroyed the Xixia class again and returned to the court, which is also the closest position to the emperor of the Song Dynasty. Suddenly being able to win Guanzhong is sure to keep Lu Heng in Hanoi.

In this way, the purpose of the Yang family will be achieved, and Yang Biao can directly meet the emperor of the Song Dynasty, Lu Heng!

It has to be said that Yang Biao is old and cunning, perhaps to avenge the murder of his son in the original time and space!
Giving Cao Cao a fatal backstab at the most critical moment is also a sudden blow at the moment when the Yang family benefits the most.

Just like that, when Cao Cao woke up Yoyo, he still couldn't believe that Hongnong had been lost!
