The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

Xi Zhicai finished his clever plan confidently, but he didn't immediately get Cao Cao's approval. Cao Cao frowned and began to think. Cao Cao is not Liu Bei. Although he can't think of many clever plans, he can judge for himself whether the plan is good or bad. and choose to use or not.

"My lord, you think this plan is too simple to let Liu Bei and Zhang Liao fall for it?"

Xi Zhicai glanced at Cao Cao and knew what Cao Cao was thinking.

"Exactly. If Liu Bei and Guan Yu were the only ones in Liu Bei's army, I wouldn't doubt it. But Liu Bei has Chen Ziming beside him, whose intelligence is not inferior to his ambition. Such a simple plan may not escape his eyes!"

Cao Cao thought of the first time he saw Chen Ziming, at that time there were only a dozen or so white bodies around Liu Bei, but how long it had passed, Liu Bei was already the overlord of a party, whose power was not inferior to him and Yuan Shao, and the biggest hero was Chen Ziming.

He knows best why he and Yuan Shao are able to have the current strength, but the huge family forces behind them have fully supported their current development, but Liu Bei has the current strength only by relying on Chen Ziming's tricks.

"My lord looks at me highly. Zhicai thinks his talent is not bad, but compared to that Chen Ziming, I am far behind. The first plan is to win the land of Qingzhou for Liu Bei, and the second plan is to make Liu Bei's military, government, and money extremely powerful."

"However, my plan is a conspiracy. Even if Chen Ziming knows it, it doesn't matter, and Zhang Liao knows it."

"Unless Liu Bei abandons the [-] troops in Xi'an and retreats to Linzi, but in this case, his death is not far away."

Xi Zhicai solved Cao Cao's doubts with a smile, but it made Cao Cao even more confused.

"According to Zhicai's words, why did Liu Bei retreat to Linzi, and he must perish?"

Cao Cao really couldn't figure it out, if Liu Bei gave up Xi'an and retreated to Linzi, where the walls were high and the food was abundant, and it was his territory, how could he be doomed.

"Hehe, my lord led an army of 15 here to storm Xi'an City. Although the losses were heavy, Xi'an City is an isolated city with limited soldiers, horses, food and grass, and it will be broken sooner or later."

"If you want to protect the city of Xi'an, Liu Bei must lead an army to come. If you come, you will be surrounded by the army. Zhang Liao knows that Liu Bei is in danger, so he will definitely abandon Xi'an city and lead his army to rescue Liu Bei."

"At this time, the city of Xi'an should be the land of the lord, and Liu Bei, who is besieged by the army, and Zhang Liao, who is leaving the city, will undoubtedly be defeated."

"If Liu Bei doesn't come to rescue Zhang Liao, then my lord will lose some troops, take Xi'an, and then march into Linzi, Liu Bei will still perish."

"Although the city of Linzi is high and has a lot of food, Liu Bei has no way out, and no reinforcements. When hundreds of thousands of troops attack the city, Linzi will be in danger of a tiger prison? Is there a way out?"

"Furthermore, Liu Bei only knows that the lord has 15 soldiers and horses here. If he joins the Zhang Liao tribe in Xi'an, he will be able to fight the lord. Liu Bei will definitely lead the army."

"My plan is not for the strong, but for them."

After Xi Zhi finished speaking, he turned around and looked back. On the other side of the hill, there were densely packed military camps stretching for several miles, with banners unfurled, and soldiers and horses boundless.

That's right, in addition to Cao Cao's 15 soldiers and horses camped outside Xi'an City, there is another large army stationed on the other side of the mountain, where Xi'an City can't see it at all.Surrounded by Cao Cao's soldiers and horses, no one can find out what's going on here.

"Miao Ye, the 15 soldiers and horses in Xi'an City, plus Liu Bei's [-], should be able to fight against my [-] army, but he doesn't know that there is such an army behind me, and if he comes, he will definitely be defeated."

Chapter 64 Li Ru Zaimou

Cao Cao also thought of this. No wonder Xi Zhicai asked Cao Cao to divide the army behind him to surround the army behind him, so as not to let any news about this army leak out. It turned out that he started to plot against Liu Bei, which is really terrifying. calculation.

If he is Liu Bei, and he knows that he has only 15 soldiers, he will definitely join Zhang Liao in Xi'an City and fight with me to determine the outcome.

At this time, Liu Bei led his army into Guang County, which was only two days away from Xi'an City. After he received Zhang Liao's urgent report, he immediately led the army to Xi'an City to join Zhang Liao's army, but was pulled by Chen Ziming. Living.

Chen Ziming knew that with Zhang Liao in Xi'an City, there was no danger for the time being. If Liu Bei went, there would be danger instead. He did not believe that Cao Cao would wait for Liu Bei on the way.

Now he already knew that Cao Cao's 15 troops besieged Xi'an City. The reason why he was not worried about the safety of Xi'an City was that he believed in Zhang Liao, the general who defended the city.

You must know that Zhang Liao in history was based in Hefei, and the Soochow army hit a wall several times. No matter how many Soochow troops came, he followed them one by one.

Now, under the care of Chen Ziming, the city of Xi'an is already very strong.Moreover, the geographical location of Xi'an City determines that it is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

The Xi'an City Wall, which has been reinforced and heightened several times, is definitely not so easy to build, and Xi'an, as Xi Zhicai said, can only attack one side with all its strength, and there is no way to deploy the army in other directions, which is easier to defend.

As for what Xi Zhicai said, Liu Bei gave up the Zhangliao Department in Xi'an. Liu Bei never thought about it. Even if Liu Bei knew that it was very dangerous to go, he would definitely lead his troops to go there. This is Liu Bei.

"My lord, don't worry, the city of Xi'an is high and strong, and General Zhang Liao is a good defender. Within a month, the city of Xi'an will not be lost."

"Besides, the current situation is not clear. Then Cao Cao is the hero of the world. He has a lot of advisers and generals under him. We should take it easy."

Chen Ziming will definitely not let Liu Bei take the army away to Xi'an for support in such a reckless manner now. With the wisdom of Cao Cao and his advisers, how could it be possible for Liu Bei and Zhang Liao to join up? What is more important is to seize this opportunity and give Liu Bei's army Hard.

"Military teacher, according to your opinion, what should I do?"

Chen Ziming objected, and Liu Bei had to give up his plan to lead troops to Xi'an immediately. Chen Ziming had the absolute right to speak in his heart, and now he could only rely on Chen Ziming's wisdom. Liu Bei was not ignorant of the danger of this trip.

"Wait! Wait for the news from Pingyuan and Jinan. I feel that this matter will definitely not be so simple. Cao Cao alone can't hurt the Lord. Now at least Tao Qian from Xuzhou, Cao Cao from Yanzhou, and Yuan Shao from Yizhou are involved." .”

Sure enough, as Chen Ziming expected, two days later, Liu Bei received an urgent report from Xu Huang of Pingyuan County, and Xuzhou soldiers and horses appeared in Pingyuan City.Two days later, the Jinan Express also came, not only bringing news that Yuan Shao's army had entered Jinan County, but also another news that no one could have imagined.

Lu Bu led [-] Bingzhou cavalry to appear in Jinan County!After receiving this news, Chen Ziming finally guessed what happened. All the things should be caused by the emperor who was trapped in Chang'an City.

Of course, that emperor must not have the ability to mobilize the three major princes and Lu Bu's troops. The only one who can do this is Dong Zhuo.

The only explanation for Dong Zhuo to go to war so violently is that the emperor did something that dissatisfied Fatty Dong, and this incident involved Liu Bei who was far away in Qingzhou.

And what Chen Ziming could think of, the only thing that the current emperor could do was the one that had happened in history, the emperor's blood edict.

"My lord, this time, we are in danger!"

Chen Ziming's heart sank. Now Liu Bei will face not only the three powerful princes, but also Dong Zhuo's powerful soldiers in Chang'an.

Now Dong Zhuo completely controls Bingzhou and most of the territory of Silizhou, and his subordinates are not weak. In addition to Lu Bu, who is recognized as the most fierce man in the world, there are many very powerful generals. Bingzhou is famous all over the world. cavalry.

Not to mention a counselor, Li Ru, who played with the emperor to the applause, his intelligence is really hard to judge, but he is definitely a rare top counselor in the world.

Even Yuan Shao didn't dare to face Dong Zhuo alone now. Dong Zhuo's strength can be seen.

"My lord, the current situation is very obvious. It must be that the lord has become famous and powerful recently. The emperor and his ministers trapped in Chang'an have strange thoughts and intend to contact the lord to rescue him. However, they are not secretive. Dong Zhuo Knowing that Dong Zhuo was offended, all the princes of the world will attack the lord."

"This decision is Li Ru's plan. In the name of the emperor, Tao Qian in Xuzhou, Cao Cao in Yanzhou, Yuan Shao in Yizhou, let the three continents go first, and block Qingzhou with troops and horses, so that we don't know about the mobilization of troops and horses from outside."

"Xuzhou Tao Qianding was lured by Li Ru to attack the lord by taking over Pingyuan County, Beihai County and Donglai County. But his strength is the weakest. With Xu Gongming in Pingyuan, the threat to the lord is weak. Only Gongming Danger."

"Cao Cao of Yanzhou and Yuan Shaoding of Yizhou saw that the lord was threatening him, and they wanted to get rid of the lord quickly. As soon as the emperor's edict arrives, they will seize this opportunity and march into Qingzhou. These are the two powerful enemies of the lord. also."

"Originally, Li Ru let the lord enter Qingzhou to balance the northern princes, but the matter of the emperor broke out, and the lord's strength developed too fast, making him feel that the lord was in danger to him, so he should find a way to get rid of the lord."

"Besides, Yuan Shao in Yizhou and Cao Cao in Yanzhou are not far behind in strength. You can throw Qingzhou out and let them grab it. In this way, the danger of the lord can be eliminated, and the strength of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao can be consumed. Keep yourself safe from danger."

"As for the soldiers and horses led by Lv Bu, it must be that Li Ru wants the princes from all walks of life to know Dong Zhuo's current strength. The second is that after the princes of the three routes take Qingzhou, their army will definitely attack Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses. The vitality of Yuan Shao and Yuan Shao were greatly injured, so that the two of them no longer threatened Chang'an Dong Zhuo."

"It's a pity that Li Ru underestimates Cao Cao and Yuan Shaoye. Both of them have capable people, and they will not see Li Ru's plan. After Cao Cao and Yuan Shao destroy their lord, these two will be the first to attack Dong Zhuo. Li Ru This plan is asking for death."

Chen Ziming quickly guessed what happened. It is true that His Majesty in Chang'an wanted to be free and crazy. As soon as a minister suggested it, he wrote a blood edict on the spot, hoping to use Liu Bei's hand to get freedom, and then regain control world.

It's a pity not to be informed by the eunuchs, all the ministers who participated were killed by Dong Zhuo, and the emperor had no freedom to speak of.

Chapter 65 No Advance or Retreat

Moreover, Dong Zhuo thought that Liu Bei was also involved, so he ordered Li Ru to kill this overconfident Liu Bei. Unfortunately, he didn't know that Liu Bei was the last to know about it, and Chen Ziming guessed it from some news.
