The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

"This battle is unfavorable. It's not your fault. Go back and rest." Cao Cao looked at the group of generals kneeling below, and his lips twitched.

Lu Bu, Xiahouyuan, Xiahoudun, Xu Chu, Cheng Yu, Cao Zhang, Cao Xiu, all of them are either confidant generals or their own family members, and they are the pillars of Cao's army. What can Cao Cao do to these people.

One or two are okay, look at the following, almost including all of Cao Cao's top generals, Cao Cao is helpless, the first confrontation with Zhang Fei is a disadvantage, which has a great impact on morale.

Unlike the lifeless one on Cao Cao's side, Zhang Fei's side continued to cheer and laugh, but Qu Yi and Zhang Xiu's two sick patients were not so easy, and Zhang Fei couldn't win people's hearts.

Chapter 325 Trading

Both Qu Yi and Zhang Xiu were seriously injured, especially Zhang Xiu, who was shot through the shoulder by Lu Bu with an arrow, and was unable to lead troops to fight for a long time.

Zhang Fei didn't care about the two, but Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong, the chief generals, couldn't ignore them. Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong had also studied at the Linzi Military Academy for a period of time, and they were taught by Chen Ziming himself.

Among them, Chen Ziming spent a lot of time talking about the morale of the army and the hearts of the people. The superior and the subordinate must help each other, trust each other, and unite as one. Only in this way can the combat power of the army be raised to the highest level.

And as a general, he couldn't let his subordinates be wronged. Although Zhang Xiu and Qu Yi used their troops improperly, Zhang Fei and the others not only didn't remind them, but took advantage of them to fight with each other, which made them feel unhappy to some extent.

After chatting with Zhang Xiu for a while, Zhao Yun suddenly asked, "What do you think of General Qu Yi's ability?"

"Qu Yi, martial arts is strong, he knows how to use soldiers well, he is a rare general." Zhang Xiu is also a proud person, although he wants to compete with Qu Yi, but he is not the kind of villain who speaks behind his back and hurts others.

"You and General Qu Yi, who is higher and who is lower?" Zhao Yun asked with a slight smile.

"This..." Zhang Xiu frowned, and finally sighed: "I am not inferior to him, but he is not inferior to me either."

Regarding Qu Yi's talent, Zhang Xiu's evaluation is very fair and reasonable, and he is not so arrogant that the task itself is better than Qu Yi.

"Since this is the case, why is it necessary to compete for a while? Mr. Ziming once said that the final winner is the final winner. We all know your talent, so there is no need to fight for a while."

"Those who are in the middle of the tiger, only when they are united together can they be invincible and invincible."

"You should remember this defeat. If you don't think about your mistakes, you will definitely lose again next time."

"Remember the general's instruction." Zhang Xiu gave a slight salute, knowing that he had indeed violated the taboo of military strategists.

Zhao Yun nodded slightly, and didn't say much. Zhang Xiu still needs to practice for a while. If he wants to become the commander of the first army, he will definitely not be able to do it without a good heart.

Now Liu Bei's eleven army generals, those who are not brave and resourceful, who know how to use soldiers well, will never do such aggressive things as Zhang Xiu and Qu Yi.

This is also the reason why Chen Ziming wants to transfer a fierce guy like Zhang Fei away from the front line. Although Zhang Fei is strong in martial arts, his xinxing cultivation is not enough. Let Zhang Fei hold a hundred thousand soldiers and horses. Chen Ziming is not at ease. high hang.

"By the way." When Zhao Yun was about to leave, he suddenly said, "Mr. Kong Ming asked me to take him to say sorry to you. This matter was his plan."

After Zhao Yun finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Xiu calmly, waiting for Zhang Xiu's reaction: "General, don't worry, the general will never bear any grudges against Mr. Kong Ming. The matter of military warfare should not be treated with common sense."

"Well, you should be a general." Zhao Yun was very satisfied with Zhang Xiu's reaction. If Zhang Xiu hated Zhuge Liang because of this time, then this person must be narrow-minded and not qualified to take on important tasks.

Under Huang Zhong's guidance, Qu Yi also gave up competing with Zhang Xiu for a short-term merit. His ability is completely sufficient. What is lacking now is only military exploits and prestige. Now that Liu Bei and Cao Cao are fighting all year round, is he afraid that he will not have the opportunity to obtain military exploits?

Zhang Fei, who won the first victory, led his army to advance again. The army directly entered Hongnong County, facing Cao Cao's army ten miles away. The army gathered in Xin'an and Yiyang of Hongnong County.

"Zhang Fei came here with an army of 30, intending to compete with me here, but Tai Shici led [-] troops south to Hezhong County and went straight to Henan County. Now there are only Cao Hong's [-] troops in Henan County. I'm afraid it's not Tai Shici's enemy, do you have a way to break it?" When Cao Cao received the news that Zhang Fei's army was approaching him and Tai Shici's army was heading for Hezhong County, he immediately summoned everyone to discuss.

"Prime Minister, Tai Shici's [-] troops are approaching Henan County, intending to force the Prime Minister to send troops to reinforce Luoyang, which will weaken the Prime Minister's strength here." Xun You stood up and said, "Zhang Fei's troops have just won a big victory, and their morale is like a rainbow. Once the Prime Minister Sending troops south, he will definitely storm the prime minister's camp."

"Therefore, the Prime Minister cannot send troops to reinforce General Cao Hong, but he can order General Cao Hong to gather troops and gather in Luoyang, and defend the city. How do you break the horse?" Xun You did not approve of sending troops south for reinforcements.

"No." After hearing this, Cheng Yu immediately retorted: "Henan County is too important to us, and we must not lose it. Once Henan County is lost, our 30 army has no choice but to retreat. Send troops and horses as soon as possible to reinforce it."

"This......."

Cheng Yu and Xun You both had their own reasons, and there was a lot of discussion among them. Some supported Xun You, and some supported Cheng Yu. They each had their own arguments, but Cao Cao didn't know what to do for a while.

"Prime Minister." Just when everyone couldn't come up with a complete plan, Xi Zhicai opened his mouth, and the big tent immediately fell silent, waiting for Xi Zhicai to speak: "Luoyang must not be lost, and troops should not be sent south here, why not?" Send troops from elsewhere to reinforce General Cao Hong in Luoyang."

"Military Master, where is the Prime Minister coming to reinforce Luoyang now?" Dong Zhao asked Xi Zhicai suspiciously, knowing that all the troops Cao Cao could mobilize are in Hongnong County to confront Zhang Fei.

Jingzhou, Yuzhou, and Yanzhou each had some soldiers and horses, but those soldiers and horses could not be mobilized at all. Once they were mobilized, Liu Bei's soldiers and horses waiting by the side would definitely take over the land without soldiers and horses as soon as possible.

"Prime Minister, as far as I know, Lu Su, the envoy of Jiangdong Sun Ce, is visiting Luoyang. Next, he came to ask the lord for Jiangxia, Changsha and other places." Xi Zhicai suddenly mentioned Lu Su who had been pestering Cao Cao.

"Yes, that's right." Cao Cao nodded and said, "Lu Su is a man of eloquence, but my soldiers fought to the death to occupy the land, how can I give it to others empty-handed."

Cao Cao was very dissatisfied with Lu Su's unreasonable demands. Cao Cao still thinks that he doesn't have enough territory, so how could he be willing to give Sun Ce two big counties.

"That depends on whether the lord wants Liangzhou or the land of Jiangxia." Xi Zhicai said here, without saying a word, waiting for Cao Cao's decision.

How could he fail to understand what Xi Zhicai said, and exchanged the land of Jiangxia County for Sun Ce to send troops to attack Liu Bei, so that Cao Cao could free up part of his troops to reinforce Luoyang.

"Prime Minister, don't care about the gains and losses of a city or a place." Cheng Yu immediately got up and thought about it.

"Well, I know." Cao Cao's frowning brows finally relaxed, and his face relaxed a lot, as if he had made a certain decision.

"Order Wenruo to discuss this matter with Lu Su. Jiang Xia can give it to Sun Ce, but at first he must send troops to attack Liu Bei's Xuzhou, forcing the Xuzhou defenders to deal with Sun Ce's army with all their strength, so that Le Jin can draw some troops to reinforce Luoyang."

"Order Cao Hong to gather the soldiers and horses of Henan County, stick to Luoyang, and wait for the arrival of reinforcements. He must die to protect Luoyang's stability."

Several 10 troops from the two armies confronted each other between Xin'an and Yiyang counties, and there were not far from the camps of Cao Cao and Zhang Fei, each had a small stream, otherwise it would be a problem for several 10 troops to drink water.

"The news came from Ziyi that Cao Hong of Henan County led the army to retreat to Luoyang. Ziyi had already led the army into the land of Henan County and began to march towards Luoyang. However, Ziyi said in a letter that Cao Hong's move was a strategy of standing firm and waiting for help. Let us Pay close attention to the mobilization of Cao Cao's soldiers and horses." It has been ten days since Zhang Fei led the army here, and he did not provoke Cao Jun once, just looking at each other like this.Today I finally received news from Tai Shici, now we have to see how Cao Cao will change.

"General." Tian Feng said, "Cao Cao has not yet sent troops to Luoyang for reinforcements, so he has other plans."

"Huh?" Zhang Fei was taken aback for a moment, and then asked, "Cao Aman has any other plans. Don't you believe that Ziyi can capture Luoyang, and there are only [-] soldiers in Luoyang city?"

"That's not true." Tian Feng said: "It's not that Cao Cao didn't send troops to reinforce Luoyang, but instead of dispatching troops from here, he dispatched troops from other places to Luoyang for reinforcements."

"Impossible." Zhang Fei shook his head and said, "My elder brother has sent people to restrain Cao Aman's troops. In addition to the 30 troops on the opposite side, he can also send troops to reinforce Luoyang from there."

"General, don't forget that Cao Cao and Sun Ce are allies. If Cao Cao is willing to give up some benefits, it is not difficult to persuade Sun Ce to send troops." Tian Feng suggested that Cao Cao's ally Sun Ce might send troops to help.

"Sun Ce's son?" Zhang Fei was thoughtful, but no one knew what he was thinking.Not long after, Zhang Fei scratched his head, making the corners of the mouths of the people in the big tent twitch. It seems that they still think highly of Zhang Fei.

"Let's not worry about Sun Ce's son. At the beginning, my eldest brother looked at Sun Jian's face and pitied him as an orphan and widow. When he was in trouble, he even sent people to send food and grass to help him tide over the difficulties. Now this kid doesn't know how to repay his kindness. Instead, he has repeatedly Send troops to threaten my elder brother, if that kid Ziming didn't stop me, I would have led my troops to destroy Jiangdong." When it comes to Sun Ce, Zhang Fei is a big fire, in Zhang Fei's view, Sun Ce is a villain who will repay kindness and revenge.

"General, Sun Ce is very likely to send troops to Xuzhou. In this case, Xuzhou must be in a hurry. His Majesty will definitely send reinforcements. Then Cao Cao's troops in Yuzhou can be dispatched to Luoyang to reinforce Cao Hong. At that time, Luoyang will be difficult. The general will make plans early on. "Guo Jia stopped Zhang Fei from continuing to complain, military affairs are important, and he can be arrogant, if he is Sun Ce, he will even fight Cao against Liu, this is the only way out for Sun Ce.

"Then what do you guys think we should do?" According to what Chen Ziming told him, it was enough to leave the planning to Guo Jia and others, and he was only in charge of commanding the troops.

"General." Shen Pei said: "Now it seems that it is not advisable to wait for Cao Cao to send troops to reinforce Luoyang to weaken Cao Cao's strength. We should not continue to waste it again. We should find another way to destroy Cao Cao's army."

"Well, that's fine." Zhang Fei nodded, and then said: "Who are you waiting for who would like to call for battle?"
