Han counter current

"Come here, send an order to prepare the army and attack tomorrow. As long as we can defeat the northern border army, we will go south and return to Xuchang in the future, and we will surely be able to save your family members."

"promise,,,,,,"

After the others left, the big tent seemed much deserted, and Cao Zhang was always by his father's side.After all, the accident in Xuchang caused Cao Cao to lose many wives, concubines and heirs. Excluding the heirs who stayed in Chenliu, there was only one Cao Zhang by his side.

"Father, the Northern Frontier Army is powerful, and Chen Feng is extremely insidious and cunning. All the generals under his command are the mighty generals in the world. Only Lu Xiao, I am not sure that I can defeat him.

At this moment, there is turmoil in the rear of our army and Xuchang has been captured. Shouldn't we immediately return to Xuchang with the whole army?If you still go north to fight at this moment, wouldn't you be asking for trouble. "

Cao Zhang had doubts in his mind, but he also knew that he couldn't raise them in front of others, so he only asked when there were few people.

"Ziwen, you have to remember that the opponents you are facing now are not Yi Yuzhi's generation. They can think of everything you can think of. Do you think I don't want to return to Xuchang now?

Hmph, if you want to regain Xuchang in a short time, you must take away all the main force on the front line, otherwise it will be useless. Besides, if you leave a small number of troops here, they will eventually be eaten by Chen Feng.

The most important thing is that once the main force of the army withdraws, Xuzhou and Yanzhou in the north will definitely be lost. At that time, the northern army will drive straight in. With the mobility of the cavalry under Chen Feng, how long do you think it will take to catch up with us?

One more thing, you have to remember that Sima Yi is not to be underestimated.You know why he didn't make a big fuss after the rebellion?Why not send someone to threaten the lieutenant general?Why haven't you turned your back on us at this juncture? "

"This, my child doesn't know."

"Then you should use your brain and think about why. Among my Cao Mengde sons, isn't there one who can suppress Sima Yi, a wolfish and ambitious man? Hmph,,,,,,,"

Cao Cao was very angry, it seemed that he was dissatisfied with Cao Zhang's performance, and he seemed to be affected by what happened in Xuchang.After all, his Cao family has been hijacked, and his eldest son Cao Pi is now Sima Yi's puppet. How can Cao Cao endure such humiliation.

Xuchang, the former prime minister's mansion, is now Sima Yi's residence. After completing the control of Xuchang's military force, Sima Yi is now studying the military in the north every day.

"Sima Yi, it's still too late for you to repent, otherwise, when my father's main force returns, your Sima family will surely die without a place to bury you."

Beside the table, Cao Pi looked angry. He didn't expect that Sima Yi, who was usually respectful to him, would rebel at this juncture, and even occupied Xuchang and held him hostage.

As a child of the Cao family, Cao Pi certainly has many shortcomings, but it is undeniable that this guy also has his own dignity, and he was very unwilling to be hijacked by a servant.

"The prime minister is talented and general, so he won't fail to understand, my son, I advise you to say a few words less. Chen Feng and the Northern Xinjiang army in the north are not so easy to deal with.

Isn't the army division now calling for soldiers and horses to go north? Don't worry, it is impossible for the prime minister to return to Xuchang before the northern army is defeated. "

"You, dog thief,,,,,,"

"Young master, I definitely won't kill you now, but do you think I will humiliate you with dirty tricks? If you really refuse to shut up, then don't blame me..."

Chapter 713 Bad luck 2

The situation in the north is getting worse and worse. Both Chen Feng and Cao Cao are continuing to increase their troops, and a large amount of supplies from the rear have also been transported to the front line. The two great princes of the time seem to be cornered.

In May, Liu Bei of Jingzhou officially announced an alliance with Sima Yi, and at the same time recognized the territory occupied by Sima Yi. This was the first prince to support Sima Yi, which also lowered the prestige of the Cao family by a notch.

At the same time, Liu Bei declared that the food and other materials ordered by Cao Jun in Jingzhou would be delivered normally, but he would only transport the food to Xuchang, and he didn't care about the rest.

Since Cao Cao was short of food last year, he paid the deposit first, and then waited for Jingzhou to deliver the food and grass. After all, the initiative was in Jingzhou at that time, and Cao Cao had no choice.

To be precise, Liu Bei did not break his promise. He took Cao Cao's money and paid the corresponding food and grass.It's just that these food and grass have to go through Xuchang, whether they can be transported to the front line or not depends on Sima Yi's face.

Under such circumstances, Cao Cao had to fight Chen Feng first, otherwise, even if he turned his back on Xu Chang now, it would be useless.And Chen Feng, also aware of the embarrassment of Cao Cao's situation, naturally knew what Cao Cao would do next.

The situation has changed to what it is now, and it is indeed beyond the expectations of the world.

In mid-May, Guo Jia led reinforcements to the northern part of Yanzhou, and Cao Cao also rearranged his troops.Then, to Cao Cao's surprise, before he started to cause trouble, the Northern Xinjiang Army took the lead in attacking.

The two great lords of the present age are both quite powerful in the north of the Yangtze River, and their soldiers and horses are also elite enough. It can be said that these two are the most likely to unify the world.

However, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and one of them is destined to fall.

Similarly, if you want to survive in troubled times, you often have to fight and gamble with your own life.Chen Feng is a gambler, and so is Cao Cao.

When there was a rebellion in the rear and Xuchang was captured, Cao Cao resolutely bet on the north.Back then, he also encountered the situation where the rear was attacked.

At that time, Lu Bu led his army to attack Yanzhou and almost occupied most of Yanzhou's territory.At that time, Cao Cao's reputation was not obvious, his strength was insufficient, and the threat posed by Lu Bu was too great, so he had to withdraw his troops from the front line to counterattack Yanzhou, and finally drove Lu Bu away.

This time, because the opponent was the cunning and insidious Chen Feng, Cao Cao did not dare to withdraw his troops easily. At the same time, even if Sima Yi occupied Xuchang, Cao Cao was confident enough that Sima Yi's strength was limited to Xuchang and Sili. It doesn't penetrate at all.

"Sure enough, he is a hero who was able to gain a foothold in the north within a few years. Chen Feng's development to today is not only due to luck, Feng Xiao, this time, you and I will join forces again to completely solve this Chen Feng."

In the big tent, Cao Cao still had that confident look on his face, and Guo Jia next to him was also calm and calm. Although his face was pale, the pair of master and servant stood together, as if the situation was under their control.

The other generals are also full of confidence at this time. After all, they are elites who have fought in the battlefield for many years. They have never seen such a big scene. This time, they still believe that their lord can survive.

"Chen Feng dared to take the lead in the attack, not because he had a certain chance of winning, on the contrary, he seemed to have guessed that our army's strength would rise to a higher level after the arrival of reinforcements, so he wanted to seize the initiative on the battlefield as soon as possible.

I have to say that after these years of fighting, this guy has grown quite sophisticated now, even if Jia Xu is not by his side, he dares to fight our army.

My lord, if what I expected is correct, Chen Feng must want to confront our army head-on, and he knows better than us the reason why he will surrender ten times with one force.

He fought with our army for logistics before, but now, he probably wants to fight with our army for his life. Perhaps, this guy will transfer a lot of slaves from the grassland. "

Cao Cao nodded after hearing this, and Chen Feng's methods were not inferior to him at all in terms of ruthlessness.The difference is that Chen Feng's ruthlessness is more aimed at foreigners.

For example, dispatching the slave army to fight south, even if there were many slave soldiers killed or injured, Chen Feng would not feel sad, and Cao Cao could also watch his soldiers die on the battlefield with a cold eye. Both of them were hard-hearted.

"Then come on, and let the old man destroy his slave army first, and then see if he dares to be so arrogant."

Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win a hundred battles. The seasoned Cao Cao naturally knows where Chen Feng's advantages lie, and he also knows what Chen Feng will do next.

"Everyone, this Chen Feng has fought against our army for many years, and we have won and lost each other, but this man is tenacious and has many soldiers under his command. He is indeed our army's lifelong enemy.

If our army wins this battle, Hebei will belong to our army. At that time, our army's tigers and wolves will be able to sweep Jingxiang and dominate the world.But if our army is defeated, hehe, I'm afraid we will all have to flee back to the Central Plains, lingering on our last breath, and the good days of everyone may come to an end by then. "

"Ha ha ha ha,,,,,,"

All the generals laughed loudly after hearing this, it wasn't that Cao Cao was joking, on the contrary, Cao Cao was telling the truth, and everyone knew it very well, but no matter how difficult the situation was, they would not believe that their side would lose.

The entire northern part of Yanzhou is now covered with dark clouds, small-scale wars are happening one after another, and soldiers on both sides are fighting desperately.Cao Cao had dispatched all the soldiers and horses that could be dispatched from the north, and Chen Feng had also tried his best to recruit slaves from the grassland, and the breath of a decisive battle had already spread.

On Chang'an's side, Jia Xu is also ordering the recruitment of soldiers and horses. Since it is a decisive battle, how can Jia Xu be missing? Moreover, there are still many soldiers and horses in Chang'an, who must participate in this battle.

Yu Jin who is stationed at Hulao Pass is not feeling well now. He is Cao Cao's general, so he naturally obeys Cao Cao, but now, Xuchang is under the control of Sima Yi, and all the food and supplies of the garrison at Hulao Pass are stuck in Sima Yi's hands.

Furthermore, at this juncture, Chang'an's troops and horses are frequently mobilized, and even a fool can see that the other side has changed.As a veteran who has followed Cao Cao for many years, Yu Jin felt that he had the responsibility to defend Hulao Pass well at this juncture.

"Xuchang is in the hands of the remnants of the Sima family, and my lord is very likely to take it back, but if the enemy from Chang'an captures Xuchang, then my lord's foundation will be ruined.

Fortunately, hehe, the enemy army in Chang'an doesn't have any famous generals, that is, a Hao Zhao is not bad, but this junior is famous for his good defense. As for the attack, I really don't care... ,,,"

Yu Jin is also good at defense, and he has fought against Hao Zhao before, so he knows Hao Zhao's strengths and weaknesses clearly. Therefore, with him guarding Hulao Pass, he really doesn't worry about Hao Zhao's attack.

Chapter 714 Exquisite Arrangement 1

Sima Yi, who lives in Xuchang, can't rest for a moment now. The two princes of the world are wrestling in the north. No matter who wins, it will be a disaster for him.
