Ma Chao glanced at Bai Ren with complicated eyes, hesitated for a moment, and replied to Bai Ren with a somewhat heavy tone: "The Xiqiang tribe needs to stay away from the Central Plains, and we should have to travel for half a day to get there!"

"It will take a long time!? It seems that the Xiqiang tribe is hiding far away!" Hearing Ma Chao's words, Bai Ren sighed helplessly and said in a heavy tone. He really deserves to be a nation that lives in a place of bitter cold. ah!

Therefore, Bai Ren could only helplessly lead his soldiers towards the northwest, galloping crazily.

And Xuchang, in Cao Cao's prime minister's mansion, Cao Cao sat on his seat with a gloomy face, and Xu Chu stood beside him, staring down, trying hard to protect his prime minister, and the man sitting below It is the mainstay of the Cao Wei camp.

On the right is a civil servant, and in the first place is Cao Cao's first military division and Cao Cao's ovary, Xun Yu.

Although Xun Yu's relationship with Cao Cao has gradually drifted away in recent years, it is undeniable that Xun Yu has always been the No. 1 of Cao Ying's civil servants.

Sitting under Xun Yu was a middle-aged man with dull eyes and a simple and honest complexion, but if you are confused by his appearance, you will be in bad luck. This person is Cao Cao's mastermind Xun You.

Sitting under Xun You was an old man with a beautiful beard and an extremely handsome appearance, but his eyes looked a bit fierce. This man was the number one confidant among Cao Cao's civil servants.

And the next ones sitting below are the new generation, newly recruited advisers, namely Sima Yi, Chen Qun, Jiang Ji and others.

As for the other generals, it is quite miserable. The number of them is too small. The first one is Cao Chun under Cao Cao. This man is Cao Cao's younger brother and is good at commanding troops. military.

And below Cao Chun is Cao Cao's adopted son, Cao Zhen. Now Cao Zhen has also started to get in touch with the military, and has made some minor achievements in the military.

As for Xiahoudun and other clansmen, they were all sent out by Cao Cao to control the place, so now there are only these two Cao clans in Xuchang.

The next generals with different surnames were Xu Huang, Yan Liang, Yu Jin, Li Dian, Lu Qian, Zhu Ling and others. It can be said that Cao Cao's generals with good abilities basically came.

"Hefei City is broken, and Zang Ba died in battle!" Cao Cao said to the surrounding Wenwu with a heavy expression while holding a letter in his hand.

"Soochow sent troops, can't it work?" Cheng Yu looked at Cao Cao with a serious expression at this time, and asked Cao Cao in a surprised tone.

Cao Cao frowned at this time, looked at the civil and military around him with a gloomy expression, and said hoarsely to the civil and military around him: "Soochow sent [-] troops, with Tai Shici as the main general, and Tai Shici flooded the city of Hefei, causing Hefei The city will be destroyed, and Zang Ba will die in battle!"

When the surrounding civil and military officials heard Cao Cao's words, their complexions immediately darkened. They really did not expect Soochow to be so bold.

"It turned out that the city of Hefei was flooded. I am afraid that the land of Huainan is already flooded. Now we need not only to resist the army of Soochow, but also to rescue the disaster!" Xun Yu, who was on the side, listened to Cao Cao's words and lowered his head silently for a while. , then raised his head helplessly, and said to Cao Cao with a heavy tone.

After listening to Xun Yu's words, Cao Cao lowered his head and thought for a while, then said to Xun Yu with a heavy tone, "Wen Ruo, I will give you all the power to rescue the disaster. Don't let the truth down!"

Xun Yu nodded after listening to Cao Cao's words, and said calmly to Cao Cao, "Don't worry, Prime Minister, I will take this matter to heart!"

"It's just that Soochow is abominable. How dare he commit such a rebellion after persuading him to surrender!" Cao Cao glanced at Xun Yu, and then said in a hoarse voice.

All the civil and military people around nodded their heads. At this time, the silent Xun You suddenly raised his head, and said to Cao Cao in a calm tone: "Prime Minister, I heard rumors coming from Jiangdong recently! I'm afraid it has something to do with this rumor." !"

Cao Cao looked at Xun You, who was calm and indifferent, and asked Xun You with a heavy tone, "What rumors? Gongda just say it!"

Xun You glanced at Cao Cao, and then replied calmly to Cao Cao: "Rumors say that the prime minister covets Sun Ce and Zhou Yu's wives, and wants to enjoy the happiness of heaven and man with them."

After hearing Xun You's words, the civil and military people around looked at Cao Cao with strange expressions. After all, Cao Cao had done this kind of thing a lot, so I'm afraid he really had such an idea.

At this time, Cao Cao's complexion also became extremely ugly. He stroked his beard, looked at the strange eyes of the surrounding civil and military men, coughed a few times, and then said to Xun You in a heavy tone: "It's really ridiculous, I Cao Mengde Is that such a person?"

After listening to Cao Cao's words, the civil and military people around him not only admired Cao Cao's thick skin, but thought that Cao Cao had occupied Zhang Yu's aunt at the beginning, and finally Zhang Yu joined forces with Fu Wan, Dong Cheng and others to rebel. It almost cost Cao Cao's life. If Cao Ang hadn't given up his life to protect Cao Cao, Cao Cao might not be here anymore.

"Hmph! Soochow's army is coming, and now that Hefei has been defeated, the next step is Shouchun, where Le Jin is located. Shouchun City has only [-] soldiers, what should our army do now?" Cao Cao looked a little heavy. Looking at the surrounding Wenwu, he asked the surrounding Wenwu in a serious tone.

"Prime Minister, going south to Jingzhou may be postponed now, it seems that we have to deal with this enemy in the southeast first!" Cheng Yu said in a heavy tone while stroking his beard.

Chapter 6 and One: Cao Cao went south

"Kill! Kill!" The sound of killing rang out, full of blood, Bai Ren looked at the screams coming from the Xiqiang tribe, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Ma Chao, Ma Mengqi is here!" Ma Chao charged into the Xiqiang tribe with his spear in his hand, and immediately killed another bloody path.

Bai Ren is known as the killer of the grassland and the butcher of the grassland, while Ma Chao is regarded by the Xiqiang people as a mighty general. The combination of the two makes the entire Xiqiang people terrified. Before the fight, the morale is almost lost .

A bloody battle ended, the army led by Bai Ren won a complete victory, and Ma Chao also came over with a head in his hand, and then threw it on the ground abruptly.

"This is..." Bai Ren looked at the head thrown by Ma Chao on the ground, and looked at Ma Chao with some doubts.

Ma Chao looked at Bai Ren's suspicious eyes, and replied to Bai Ren in a calm tone: "This man is the leader of Xiqiang, Cheriji!"

"Cheriji..." Bai Ren stared at Ma Chao with his eyes wide open, with a look of surprise on his face. He didn't expect Ma Chao to be so ruthless that he completely beheaded the leader of Xiqiang.

"That's right, very strong!" Bai Ren looked at Ma Chao's cold face, and said to Ma Chao in a flattering tone.

Ma Chao listened to Bai Ren's words, squinted his eyes silently, did not speak, and left silently on his horse like ice that repells people thousands of miles away.

"General, Ma Chao is so indifferent!" Zhang He looked at Ma Chao's leaving back and said to Bai Ren in a heavy tone.

Bai Ren listened to what Zhang Yun said, and then looked at the bloody head of Cheriji on the ground. He hesitated for a moment, and then calmly said to Zhang Yun, "It's because of his nature. He can't ask for it. He can see This battle has given me a lot of face!"

After listening to Bai Ren's words, Zhang Yun looked at Ma Chao in the distance silently, his eyes rolled, and he didn't know what he was thinking about.

"General, what about the surrendered Xiqiang soldiers and people!" Zhang Liao, who was standing beside him, came over and asked Bai Ren in a serious tone.

Bai Ren looked at the Xiqiang people who had become captives in the distance, hesitated for a moment, and finally said to Zhang Liao with a heavy tone: "Temporarily lock them up! Keep these people! I will be useful in the future!"

"Yes! General!" Zhang Liao replied to Bai Ren with a calm expression after hearing Bai Ren's words, and then left silently, preparing to deal with the prisoners.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" There was a sound of horseshoes, Bai Ren looked in the direction of the sound, and saw Jia Xu running towards him in the distance, looking a little anxious.

"Master! Something is wrong!" At this time, Jia Xu came to Bai Ren with a serious expression, and said to Bai Ren in a nervous tone.

"But what's the matter, so nervous?" Bai Ren looked at Jia Xu like this, and suddenly his face became a little puzzled. He had never seen Jia Xu so serious. Something big must have happened, so he looked at Jia Xu with a heavy tone and asked. .

Jia Xu looked at Bai Ren coldly, and finally spat out a few words: "Cao Cao has gone south!"

"What! Cao Cao has gone south, so fast?" Bai Ren stared at Jia Xu with wide eyes in disbelief, and his face became serious.

Bai Ren lowered his head, thinking silently. In history, Cao Cao only went south to attack Jingzhou in autumn and winter. After all, autumn and winter are dry, and the rivers in the south have also entered the dry season. This can reduce the shortcomings of northern soldiers who are not acclimatized. Bai Ren originally thought that Cao Cao would have to prepare for a few months, but he didn't expect Cao Cao to send troops so early.

"How did Cao Cao send troops!" Bai Ren's complexion became a little heavy at this time, and he asked Jia Xu in a serious tone.

Jia Xu looked at Bai Ren's puzzled look, hesitated for a moment, and said to Bai Ren with a helpless expression: "The troops will go south in two routes. The east will be commanded by Xia Houyuan, Xuzhou will send 15 troops, the west will be directly commanded by Cao Cao, and Xuchang will send [-] troops." Wan, go south to Jingzhou, Xiahou Dun takes the vanguard in Nanyang, and sends [-] troops to take Xinye!"

Divide the army into two groups?Hearing Jia Xu's words, Bai Ren widened his eyes in doubt, and looked at Jia Xu with an incredulous expression. In Bai Ren's impression, Cao Cao's southward march was not divided into two groups at all.Instead, take Jingzhou directly.

"What's the matter, master?" Jia Xu looked at Bai Ren's puzzled expression, and asked Jia Xu cautiously.

Bai Ren turned his head to look at Jia Xu, sighed helplessly, and replied to Jia Xu in a calm tone: "It's nothing, I'm just wondering why Cao Cao divided his forces into two groups and directly concentrated his forces to attack Jingzhou. Isn't it better?"

Looking at Bai Ren's appearance, Jia Xu still couldn't bear to tell Bai Ren the news of Zang Ba's death in battle, so he could only sigh, and said to Bai Ren in a calm tone: "In order to contain Soochow, create something for Soochow. Pressure!"

After listening to Jia Xu's words, Bai Ren nodded helplessly, and said to Jia Xu calmly, "Maybe that's the case! But I really don't want Cao Cao to win this war. If Cao Cao wins I, Bai Zifu, will never be able to rise above the others again!"

After listening to Bai Ren's words, Jia Xu silently stood beside Bai Ren and nodded. Anyone with ambitions would not want Cao Cao to win this war going south.

Xuchang, on the third day after Cao Cao left, Sima Yi silently sent his younger brother Sima Fu to leave Xuchang and head southeast without anyone watching. Sima Yi's purpose was very simple. The second time can win.
