Han counter current

Guo Jia's complexion was a little pale again. It seemed that he had relapsed from an old illness. Guo Jia's health has been getting worse and worse over the years, which is not a good thing for Cao Cao.

"Hmph, everything is under control. The land of Qingzhou can be fixed in one year. By the way, how is the situation in Jingzhou?"

"Liu Biao broke the contract and refused to deliver food and grass. Liu Bei stationed troops in Xinye and confronted our troops in Wancheng."

Cheng Yu quickly replied to Cao Cao's question. Now that the battle was imminent, everyone was tense.

"Okay, so brave, Liu Bei, Liu Biao, let me see how you guys fight with me..."

Chapter 594

Just when Zhao Yun led [-] Yi Cong cavalry from the grasslands of Hu and Qiang to Chang'an, a major event finally happened in the Central Plains.

Originally, the world thought that Cao Cao's attention was in the north, in the area of ​​Qingzhou, but unexpectedly, Liu Biao's inconsistency caused changes in Jingzhou.

[-] cavalry of Cao Jun, led by generals Xia Houyuan, Cao Zhang and others, set out from Xuchang and went straight to Xinye. In just four days, [-] cavalry of Cao Jun entered Xinye and defeated Liu Bei's army twice.

At the same time, Le Jin, who was stationed in Wancheng, also led the soldiers and horses of Wancheng to march southward, successfully restraining the [-] soldiers and horses Liu Bei arranged in the south of Wancheng.

In this way, the [-] Cao cavalry led by Xia Houyuan and others can be said to be rampant, and Liu Bei once again ran away with his head in his arms.

The 20 shi of grain and grass hoarded in Xinye suddenly became Cao Jun's spoils of war.The 7000 army that Liu Bei managed to form with great difficulty was reduced to less than [-] in an instant.

And this is just the first lesson Cao Cao taught Liu Biao.After Cao Zhang led [-] iron cavalry to assist Le Jin in annihilating the [-] enemy troops, the main force of Cao's army continued to move south, and even entered Xiangyang in one fell swoop.

As soon as he got the news, Chen Feng hurriedly ordered Hao Zhao, who was stationed in the east of Jingzhao, to send troops to contain Cao Jun. However, Hao Zhao's soldiers and horses had just left the pass, and found out the news that the enemy general Jin would set up camp along the road.

"Careless, too careless."

In the living room, Chen Feng walked back and forth. Cao Jun's action not only made Liu Biao and Liu Bei helpless, but also brought out Chen Feng's bad mood.

"Earlier, Cao Cao said that in order to ease the relationship with Liu Biao, he dispatched Le Jin in exchange for Yu Jin who was guarding Wancheng.

I was negligent, Yu Jin is stable, good at defending the city, joyful and brave, good at attacking.Since then, Cao Cao has made arrangements.

It's ridiculous that Liu Biao really thought it was a good thing to replace Yu Jin. Who would have thought that Le Jin would bring him more harm than Yu Jin.

I'm also to blame for leaving Hao Zhao, who is good at defense, in Jingzhao. In such an unexpected situation, coupled with the fact that the opponent is Yu Jin, how can Cao Jun be restrained in a short time. "

It is impossible to say that you are not angry.Cao Cao's method made it difficult for Chen Feng to deal with it. After looting 20 shi of grain and grass in Xinye, Cao Jun didn't have to worry about grain and grass for a short time.

"My lord, my lord, hurry up, the military division is awake..."

Pang Tong rushed in quickly, and shouted out of breath: "The military division called out to the lord when he woke up. It seems that he has something important to discuss."

"Quick, lead the way,,,,,,"

Hearing that Li Ru woke up, Chen Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief.Li Ru's illness was really strange, and he suddenly fainted. These days, he was not so much recuperating as he was in a constant coma.

"Wenyou, Wenyou, you are awake, you are awake, how do you feel now?"

"My lord, my subordinates are fine. What is the situation in the Central Plains? What about Hebei? What is Cao Jun doing?"

Li Ru's complexion was very bad, but what he cared about was the situation of the world, even if he was in poor health, it would not prevent him from serving Chen Feng.

"You just woke up, don't..."

"My lord, don't want to be a mother-in-law. Tell me quickly, Cao Cao's layout is far from as simple as you and I think. I'm afraid that if we deal with it too late, Cao Cao's situation will become great."

Hearing what Li Ru said, Chen Feng was no longer a mother-in-law, and quickly told the recent situation.

"Cao Cao got the food from Xinye, it's amazing. It turns out that Cao Cao's plan to supply food to the enemy is here, and I didn't expect it."

After listening to Chen Feng's narration, Li Ru nodded and said, "After this battle, Cao's army will get at least 40 shi of grain and grass. The crisis brought about by the drought has been relieved."

"40 shi? That's not right, Wen You, Cao Jun only looted 20 shi of food and grass, where did the 40 shi come from?"

"Hey, my lord, don't forget, it's the time of summer harvest, and Liu Bei stationed troops in Xinye and planted a lot of crops.

In addition, the local aristocratic family dared not donate food and grass in the face of Cao Jun's tiger and wolf division. Cao Jun's more than [-] soldiers and horses have not yet withdrawn at this moment, so they must want to continue to plunder southward.

40 shi is already a conservative estimate. If Cao Cao is brave enough and ruthless enough, he might be able to blackmail more from Xiangyang. "

"No wonder, no, what did you mean just now? All of this is Cao Cao's arrangement? Didn't he buy food from Liu Biao at the beginning? Then he was destroyed by Liu Bei..."

Hearing Li Ru's reasoning, Chen Feng felt that it was a bit inconsistent with the previous information, but before he finished speaking, he soon understood the meaning of Li Ru's words.

"So that's it, I understand, the so-called Liu Biao's breach of contract and Liu Bei's seizure of grain and grass are all just calculations by Cao Cao and Guo Jia, I understand.

It's ridiculous that Liu Biao and Liu Bei thought they were smart, but they didn't know they had fallen into other people's schemes long ago.Cao Cao, Cao Cao, you are amazing.Wen You, this is the end of the matter, are we going to send troops eastward to contain the enemy? "

Chen Feng had a dazed expression on his face, it seemed that he had understood Cao Cao's plan.

"Send troops, but don't go east."

"Huh? Where are you going?"

"My lord sent troops south from Chang'an to capture Wei Xing. General Xu Huang sent troops from Yongliang camp to capture Hanzhong. To be on the safe side, my lord can order General Ma Chao to lead the army to support General Xu Huang."

"What? Don't we want to contain Cao Jun?"

Hearing this question, a smile appeared on the corner of Li Ru's mouth.Chen Feng quickly understood the meaning, Cao Cao wanted to gain benefits, and he, Chen Feng, happened to be able to fish in troubled waters.

In less than half a month, the northern area of ​​Jingzhou suffered a military disaster. More than [-] Cao troops went south and defeated Liu Bei's soldiers one after another.

Then they repelled the two reinforcements sent by Liu Biao and seized countless food and grass. This time it can be said that Liu Biao lost his temper.

The point is that Cao Cao's reason for sending troops was that Liu Biao violated the covenant, seized food and grass, and annexed the deposit. Once the reason was stated, Liu Biao could not refute it.

Just when the world was surprised, Chen Feng, who was watching a play in Chang'an, dispatched Hao Zhao to lead the army to advance eastward to contain the soldiers and horses living in Jin. It entered the territory of Weixing, Jingzhou.

Liu Biao was already in a state of desperation, so he didn't care about Wei Xing's situation at this time, he could only watch Chen Feng's troops occupy Wei Xing.

But Zhang Lu was worried that Chen Feng's cavalry would advance westward, so he dispatched most of his elite troops to defend the eastern part of Hanzhong. Who would have thought that Ma Chao would lead [-] elite cavalry to kill from Fufeng at this time.

Now, Hanzhong is in a state of being attacked from both sides.

The two most powerful princes in the world fought together.This posture is really frightening, who knows if they have discussed it well, anyway, Liu Biao thinks that these two people are not good guys.

Chapter 595 Occasional Friction 1

At that time, both the two great princes sent troops to the south, and they entered the territory of Jingzhou separately, which surprised the people of the world.

Especially the Yuan brothers in Hebei. The two were worried that the main force of Cao's army would go north, so they were strengthening the camp defenses to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of them.

Who would have thought that Cao Jun's elite would go south in such a short period of time, and enter Jingzhou in one fell swoop, seizing countless grains and grass.

It can be said that Cao Jun's actions were beyond everyone's expectations. Not only did Liu Biao have no power to fight back, but also others had no time to react.
