Three Kingdoms: At the beginning, Cao Cao assassinated Dong, and I was abandoned

Cao Shuo looked angry, he didn't have time for such a big event, at least he brought the congratulatory gift, what if there is no chance in the future.

"My lord, Cao Cao plans to use troops against Yuzhou again!"

"Oh?"

Cao Shuo narrowed his eyes, this Cao Cao is indeed a restless person, it seems that Liu Bei's strength is still too weak, which made Cao Cao develop a little faster.

On the sixth day of February, when the temperature gradually became warmer, Cao Cao discussed with his subordinates and decided to send troops to Yuzhou to attack Liu Bei.

"The weather is getting warmer recently, and our army has been recuperating for more than a month. Taking advantage of the cold weather in Jizhou, we need to send troops as soon as possible to seize Yuzhou."

The intention of Cao Cao's words is obvious, that is to expand his territory as soon as possible while Cao Shuo has no time to go south.

Guo Jia said: "My lord, Liu Bei still has an army of [-] to [-], which should not be underestimated. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are the enemy of ten thousand people. We should find a way to divide their forces!"

Cao Cao asked curiously, "What advice does Feng Xiao have?"

"My lord has many soldiers and generals, so you can divide your troops into six groups and attack Liu Bei, so that he can't take care of both left and right."

"Which six roads?" Cao Cao was surprised.

Guo Jia explained: "Peiguo Longkang is the first road, Runan Chengfu is the second road, Chen Guozhe County is the third road, Chen Guoyangxia is the fourth road, Chen Guo Changping is the fifth road, and Yingchuan Dingtao is the sixth road. road."

"With this five-way army, Liu Bei's troops will definitely be dispersed. In order to preserve his foundation, Liu Bei will let Zhang Fei and Guan Yu guard two of them. His subordinates guess that Guan Yu should guard Dingtao. As for Zhang Fei, he should stay with Liu Bei. Not far away, there are several battlefields in Chen Guo."

"Great trick!"

"Great trick!"

Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia full of praise, it was his honor to get Guo Jia, and he had to ask Cao Shuo for Guo Jia's medicine to cure his illness anyway.

With Guo Jia, he can not be afraid of anyone.

Cao Ren asked in puzzlement, "Military Master, why did Guan Yu guard Dingtao?"

He can understand that Zhang Fei stayed in Chen Guo. After all, Liu Bei needed someone to protect him, but why did Guan Yu go to Dingtao?Dingtao has Zhao Yan and Liao Hua. With the number of generals under Liu Bei, Guan Yu should go to Chengfu.

Chengfu and Longkang are the east gates of Runan. Once they break through, Runan will be in danger.

Guo Jia explained: "Liu Bei's advisers, Zhao Yan and Du Xi, are by no means ordinary people. They will definitely consider the way out for Liu Bei. If Liu Bei is defeated, it is impossible to vote for Yuan Shu, let alone Dong Zhuo, the only way out. It is Jingzhou."

Cao Cao asked in surprise: "The military adviser said that Liu Bei will withdraw from Dingtao, pass through Wuyang, and go to Nanyang?"

"Ok!"

Cao Cao looked at the men and women under his command and said, "Cao Ren! Li Dian!"

"The end is here!"

"The two of you lead an army of twenty million to attack Long Kang!"

"promise!"

After the battle between Liu Bei and Yuan Shu, his strength was greatly damaged, so he withdrew to Chen County, Chen State, leaving his general Li Tong to guard Longkang to prevent Cao Cao from using troops against Runan.

"Xiahou Dun! Xiahoujie! Hua Xin!"

"The end is here!"

"The three of you command [-] troops and attack Runan City Father!"

"promise!"

Cao Cao reminded: "Chen Dao, the guard of the father of the city, is Liu Bei's confidant and favorite general. He is good at commanding troops. You three should be careful!"

"promise!"

"Le Jin, Xia Houen, you two command [-] troops and attack Chen Guozhe County!"

"promise!"

"Yu Jin, you lead [-] soldiers to attack Chen Guo Xia Yang!"

"promise!"

"Cao Xiu, Cao Chun, Cao Anmin, Cheng Yu, the five of you will lead an army of [-] to attack Chen Guo Changping."

"promise!"

"Cao Ang, Cao Hong, Xia Houyuan, Shi Huan, and Xia Houshang, together with my army division, sent [-] troops to attack Yingchuan Dingtao!"

"promise!"

Cao Ang said with a serious face: "Father, my son is willing to lead an army!"

Cao Ang felt that under the protection of Cao Cao, when would he surpass his younger brother Cao Shuo.

He has to make meritorious deeds, otherwise he will never be able to raise his head in the Cao family.

Cao Cao also understood what Cao Ang was thinking, and comforted him: "Ang'er, don't try to show off your abilities. Compared with Shuo'er, your ability is far behind."

Cao Ang said angrily: "Under the protection of my father, when my son can grow up, I wish I was the one who was abandoned by my father."

Cao Cao's face was instantly gloomy, and he said angrily, "Shut up!"

He tried so hard to make Cao Shuo forgive him, the last thing he wanted to hear was that he had abandoned a world-renowned genius back then.

Cao Ren persuaded in a low voice: "Ang'er, confess to your father quickly!"

"If father disagrees, then I'll stay and take care of mother and the ladies!"

"You!" Cao Cao's face was livid with anger!

Cao Ang's performance today was completely beyond Cao Cao's expectations. In the past, Cao Ang always obeyed his orders very much, but he didn't expect him to resist today.

The Cao family only needs one heir, but this is obviously not Cao Ang. Cao Shuo's character is more like himself, so Cao Cao has never let Cao Ang lead the army alone.

Cao Shuo is now full-fledged, no matter how hard Cao Ang tries, he can't surpass Cao Shuo. If the two brothers fight in the nest, wouldn't his Cao family make people laugh.

Instead of doing this, it's better not to let Cao Ang take charge of the army, but to be a guard by his side, and An An lives through the rest of his life.

The power struggle is not as simple as he imagined!

Cao Ang is going to exhaust Cao Cao today, no matter what, he will lead the army alone.

As for housework, Cheng Yu and Guo Jia are not easy to participate in, so it is better for Cao Cao to make the decision.

Cao Cao looked at Cao Ang's stubborn look, sighed, and said, "You can lead the army if you want. Go to Jing County to lead the army and guard against Dong Zhuo!"

"This……"

Cao Ang looked depressed, Jing County is on guard against Dong Zhuo?

Fan Chou and Li Meng were beaten so hard that they hid themselves in the vicinity of Luoyang and dared not come out.

Xiahoudun persuaded: "Ang'er, don't be too ambitious. If you don't show yourself, how can Meng De entrust you with important tasks?"

"Thank you uncle for your advice!"

"The child takes orders!"

Chapter 207

"Report, General Long Kang Li Tong has an urgent message!"

In Chen County, Chen State, Liu Bei was discussing matters with his subordinates in the mansion when he suddenly received an urgent military message from Long Kang.

"Cao Cao's generals Cao Ren and Li Dian commanded [-] troops to attack Long Kang. General Li asked for reinforcements!"

Looking at the battle report in his hand, Liu Bei looked horrified, and Cao Cao finally attacked him.

Liu Bei's counselor, Du Xi, analyzed: "My lord, Cao Cao's attack on Longkang should not be limited to this route. We should guard against other places."

"Why did the military commander say that?" Liu Bei asked puzzled.

Du Xi explained: "Cao Cao definitely wanted to attack Chen Guo, so he sent troops to attack Long Kang first, so that we can send troops to support, and then take the opportunity to seize Chen Guo."

Liu Bei was puzzled and said, "Then according to the advice of the military advisor, we won't support Li Tong?"

Du Xi thought for a while and said: "Our army has suffered heavy losses in successive battles and has not yet recovered. If Cao Cao attacks many places at the same time, we will not be able to save everything."

"My subordinates suggest that the lord should abandon Long Kang and let General Li Tong retreat to Ruyin, and use the natural danger of Yinghe River as a barrier to defend against Cao Cao's army."

Liu Bei said angrily: "Yuzhou is the land under my rule, how can I retreat without fighting?"

Du Xi persuaded: "Master, the enemy is strong and we are weak, we must avoid their edge!"

Liu Bei clenched his fists and glared at the map in front of him. He was a little undecided now, and finally became the state shepherd. He was determined to regain the entire territory of Yuzhou.

But in just three months, I lost most of Yingchuan, and only two counties remained in my hands.

Now that Cao Cao has raised troops to attack him again, it seems that he can't keep the land of these two counties.

Liu Bei asked in a deep voice, "How long can our army hold off Cao Cao if we retreat to the west of the Ying River?"

He was worried that if he retreated, Cao Cao would not give up and took the opportunity to snatch the entire Yuzhou.

Du Xi was not sure how long he could resist, so he said cautiously: "As long as we can resist, we must act as a retreat as soon as possible!"

When Zhang Fei heard this, he immediately became angry, "Hmph, I would never dare to make me a coward, brother, let me lead the troops to kill Cao Ren and Li Dian, and let them know that we are not so easy to bully. "

Liu Bei looked at Zhang Fei with a sad face, and Du Xi's heart skipped a beat. Liu Bei didn't stop him. Does it mean that Liu Bei wants to send Zhang Fei?

Du Xi hurriedly persuaded: "After General Yide leaves, who will protect the safety of the lord?"

Zhang Fei said solemnly: "It won't take a while, I promise, Cao Ren will be defeated within three days!"

"Third Brother, don't be careless!"

Liu Bei hurriedly dissuaded Zhang Fei from leading his troops to resist Cao Ren. He did not object, but Zhang Fei said that it would be difficult to defeat Cao Ren within three days.

"Report!"

A guard ran in in a panic.

Liu Bei narrowed his eyes and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?"

"General Cao Cao Xia Houdun, Xia Houjie led an army of [-] to attack Runan City Father!"

"what!"

Liu Bei broke out in a cold sweat, Du Xi guessed right, Cao Cao really wanted to attack from multiple directions, so that he could not look at each other from head to tail.

Liu Bei looked at Du Xi for help, hoping that he could think of a good strategy for him to defeat the enemy.

Du Xi looked worried. He, Cao Cao, would lead an army to attack Chen Guo. He didn't expect the second army to be in the city father. If the city father was lost, there would be no barriers in the east of Yinghe River that could stop Cao Cao's army. up.

"My lord, we have to get General Li Tong to withdraw, otherwise, facing the front and rear attacks of the [-] army, Li Tong might be defeated by Long Kang."

"Send someone quickly and let Li Tong retreat to Ruyin!"

A thousand troops are easy to get but a general is hard to find. Li Tong is his most reliable general besides Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. He absolutely cannot let Li Tong fall in Long Kang.

Du Xi said: "My lord, General Chen Dao also wants to retreat, and Song Guo is the best defensive position!"

"Chen Dao is going to retreat too?" Liu Bei was terrified.

Doesn't he have the power to fight Cao Cao?

Zhang Fei was dissatisfied and said, "Retreat this time, retreat that time, why don't we just stop fighting and just rely on Cao Cao!"

Liu Bei looked at Du Xi and asked him for an answer, hoping that he could give him a suitable reason.

Du Xi explained: "My lord, Cao Cao has hoarded [-] troops in Qiao County. Since Cao Cao chose to attack Chengfu, there is no reason to attack Ku County, which is closer to Qiao County."

"Bitter County?"

Ku County is located in the east of Chen State, and Wuping is located on the east and west banks of the Ji River respectively. It is a barrier to enter Chen State, and Ku County must not be lost.

"My lord, we need to send elite troops to garrison Kuxian and Wuping, otherwise the country of Chen will be in danger!"

Liu Bei looked at his generals, and Zhang Fei was the only one who could entrust him with important tasks.

"Third brother, you and Jian Yong will lead [-] elite troops to garrison Ku County and Wuping respectively!"

"promise!"

Not long after Zhang Fei left, Liu Bei received news that Cao Cao's generals Le Jin and Xia Houjie had led [-] troops to attack Chen Guozhe County.

Fortunately, he ordered the young general to lead [-] soldiers to defend Zhe County in case of emergency, and bought a lot of time for Zhang Fei and Jian Yong to support Ku County and Wuping.

Du Xi kept staring at the map, and Liu Bei asked in surprise, "Military Master, what's wrong?"

Du Xi said worriedly: "The subordinates feel that Cao Cao's strategy is far more than that. Since Cao Cao won Guo Jia, his strength has greatly increased. Guo Jia is a man who has exhaustive strategies and has insight into people's hearts. He should not only attack the Eastern Front and not Assault on the Western Front."

"Western Front?" Liu Bei looked at the map, and then realized that the current three-way army is concentrated on the Eastern Front, so why is the Western Front so peaceful?
