After being abandoned by Liu Bei, Cao Cao begged me to be a military adviser

Without the backing of the Dazhai headquarters, they would be lonely ghosts.

Guan Yu shook his head: "If the Dazhai headquarters is breached, Huang Zhong and Xu Chu will definitely return to Changsha City, and my two brothers will be surrounded again!"

"Grandma's!" Zhang Fei shook his head: "Second brother, what should we do now?"

Guan Yu said: "Go back to Langshan the same way, and exit Jingnan slowly!"

"Okay, listen to you!" Zhang Fei nodded.

The two brothers immediately led their troops out of the woods and returned to Wolf Mountain.

On the other side, Xu Chu and Wei Yan attacked Liu Bei's headquarters with blood. When the two armies were in a stalemate, Huang Zhong came to help.

Dazhai was breached, and the lieutenants Zhu Ran and Pang Tong were nowhere to be seen in the Chinese army.

Xu Chu and Huang Zhong immediately discussed countermeasures.

Huang Zhongdao: "Liu Bei fled to Jingzhou, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were not seen in the two great villages, I am afraid that these two ambushed Xing Daorong in Langshan!"

Xu Chu nodded: "My second general will go to rescue him right away. With Xing Daorong's bravery, he may still be fighting Guan Yu and Zhang Fei!"

Huang Zhong: "This..."

Xu Chu said again: "Even if Xing Daorong died in battle, it is not a big mistake for our army to go back to Changsha from Langshan Mountain!"

Huang Zhong nodded heavily: "General Zhongkang, what you say makes sense!"

The two departments quickly rested their troops and horses.

That night, we went to the direction of Wolf Mountain.

On the other side, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were also heading to Wolf Mountain.

The moment the two armies met, both sides were caught off guard.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei did not expect to meet Xu Chu and Huang Zhong here.

Similarly, Huang Zhong and Xu Chu did not expect that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei turned back from the direction of Changsha City.

The situation is very complicated, and the intention of the other party is even less clear.

The best way is to go to war.

A sudden encounter started in Langshan.

"kill!"

The roar of the two soldiers shook the sky.

Guan Yu and Huang Zhong fought non-stop.

Zhang Fei and Xu Chu fought inextricably.

Wei Yan and Zhou Cang had the upper hand.

But then, Liao Hua led more than [-] soldiers and horses guarding the enemy to help in the battle, and together with Zhou Cang to contain Wei Yan.

The scuffle only lasted for more than an hour, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei began to flee.

Although Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are extremely brave, their strength is very different.

Moreover, the soldiers and horses under their tents are all private soldiers.

These private soldiers will fight if they can beat them, and run away if they can't.

Some soldiers even run faster than the general.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei fled.

Huang Zhong stayed behind and cleaned the battlefield.

But Xu Chu led Wei Yan to pursue Guan Zhang with elite troops, and did not stop until he drove the second general out of Jingnan.

When the three generals returned to Changsha City, it was already the second night.

After leading the troops back to the camp, they went to the prefect's mansion to report to the son Cao Pi.

Huang Zhong clasped his fists: "My lord, I encountered Liu Bei when I was ordered to attack Liu Bei's Dazhai, and he fled Jingnan in defeat!"

"Okay!" Cao Pi laughed.

Xu Chu then said: "My lord, General Wei Yan and I defeated Guanzhang Dazhai, and saw that the false battalion went straight to Liu Bei's headquarters Dazhai. With the help of General Huang, we broke through the enemy's Dazhai!"

Cao Pi laughed: "Good job!"

Wei Yan said again: "Because I didn't see the second general Guan Zhang, I went to Langshan to rescue General Xing Daorong, fought an encounter with Guan Zhang, successfully defeated the enemy, Guan Zhang also fled Jingnan!"

"Great!" Cao Pi raised his head and laughed, then looked at Xing Daorong.

At this time, Xing Daorong burst into tears and said, "Young Master Qi, I was ordered to assist General Xu Chu. When I arrived at Langshan, I was ambushed by Guan Zhang. I had to make a compromise and pretend to surrender. When I found an opportunity, I immediately turned my back and killed the enemy with the three of you! "

"Hahaha!" Cao Pi laughed while clutching his stomach.

All the generals in the hall also burst out laughing.

All of them won the battle, only Xing Daorong lost the battle, and his words were still high-sounding.

Cao Pi beckoned: "Here's an order, a banquet will be held in the city, and the three armies will be rewarded for their merits!"

"Obey!" All the generals clasped their fists one after another, cheering.

Only General Xing Daorong of Lingling quietly wiped away his tears.

Chapter 155

The defense of Changsha City was a complete victory.

Cao Pi was undoubtedly the happiest, and awarded all the gifts given to him by the prefects of the four counties in Jingnan to the generals that night.

Don't forget the well digger when you drink water, the most reward is for Master Liu Xian.

According to Cao Pi, this is a tribute to Master.

Liu Xian was naturally happy, but with a little regret, he let the big-eared thief run away again.

But it is reasonable, after all, the big-eared thief is best at running.

The feast lasted for three full days.

Three days later, Le Jin and Li Dian will lead their troops to Jingnan to garrison.

At the same time brought a bad news.

Zhou Yu attacked Sanjiangkou at night, and Cai Mao fled to Jiangxia City.

Cao Cao was furious and ordered the whole army to march to Jiangxia, intending to fight Zhou Yu at Sanjiangkou.

Li Dian cupped his hands: "Young master, the prime minister has something to say, no matter whether Liu Bei is defeated or not, you must hurry to Jiangxia City to join the prime minister!"

"Thank you, I'll leave immediately!" Cao Pi returned the salute.

Early the next morning, Cao Pi and his party went straight to Jiangxia, and transferred Huang Zhong and Wei Yan away by the way.

After entering the big camp outside Jiangxia City, before Cao Pi went to the central army, Cao Cao had already taken Zhao Da to wait in the supply camp.

Needless to say, a group of people entered the military account.

Lao Huang immediately prepared food and wine, and chatted while eating and drinking.

Cao Cao was the first to ask his son: "I heard that in the battle of Changsha, you defeated Liu Bei's 2 horses!"

Cao Pi nodded with a smile: "Exactly, thanks to my master's strategizing in the rear and the heroic and bloody battle with several generals!"

"Well done, there will be a lot of rewards!" Cao Cao said with a smile.

Cao Pi said: "Father, I have rewarded the three armies on your behalf!"

"Huh?" Cao Cao was shocked: "How did you get the reward?"

Cao Pi turned to look at Liu Xian.

Liu Xian smiled and said, "Prime Minister, the wool comes from the sheep!"

"Hahaha!" Cao Cao laughed, and immediately understood what Liu Xian meant.

This is a reward for the generals in the Battle of Changsha with kickbacks from Jingnan.

But it's not that the wool comes from the sheep.

Cao Cao said with emotion: "Jiangdong fought unannounced, and land and water advanced side by side. Our army lost every battle, and there were gains and losses!"

Liu Xian shook his head and smiled wryly, according to the original established policy was to avoid war with Jiangdong.

Unexpectedly, Jiangdong stole Sanjiangkou without declaring war.

If Changsha hadn't won the battle, the entire army would have fallen into a passive situation.

Cao Cao asked Liu Xian, "Ziyu, Xun Gongda suggested that I write a letter to persuade Zhou Yu to surrender. What do you think, sir?"

Liu Xian smiled: "Back to Prime Minister, I think this move is necessary!"

"Oh?" Cao Cao was surprised: "Since Zhou Yu has already attacked our army, wouldn't it be superfluous to persuade him to surrender?"

Liu Xian said: "If the purpose of the prime minister's persuasion to capitulate is to persuade them to surrender, then it is redundant. If the purpose of the prime minister's persuasion to persuade them to surrender is not to persuade them to surrender, then it is not superfluous!"

Cao Cao frowned: "Why is the purpose of persuading surrender not to persuade itself?"

Liu Xian smiled: "Jiangdong Lord Shao Guoyi, the power of the navy is in Zhou Yu's hands, sending envoys to persuade Zhou Yu to surrender is a problem for Zhou Yu!"

"Oh?" Cao Cao was even more puzzled.

Liu Xian said: "If you persuade Jiangdong to surrender, you should go to Chaisang City to lobby Sun Quan. At this time, if you persuade Zhou Yu to surrender, Sun Quan will be displeased. Then send someone to blow the wind in Chaisang. This will be the beginning of the separation between Zhou Yu and Sun Quan!"

"Hahaha!" Cao Cao laughed loudly, "Well said!"

Liu Xian said again: "Persuading Zhou Yu to surrender can also demonstrate the benevolence of the prime minister. If he dares to kill the envoy, he will destroy his reputation!"

"Sir, you are right. I will send envoys to persuade Zhou Yu to surrender tomorrow!" Cao Cao laughed and nodded.

"Prime Minister is wise!" Liu Xian clasped his hands together.

……

Sanjiangkou Day Camp.

At this time, Zhou Yu was in the Chinese army to question Liu Bei's three brothers.

"Liu Bei, you are the uncle of the current emperor. My lord will help you with [-] soldiers and horses, and order you to attack Jingnan. If you can't conquer Jingnan, forget it, but you only brought back thousands of remnants. How can I save Jiangdong? "

Guan Yu said: "The governor's words are wrong. The [-] soldiers and horses borrowed by Marquis Wu are all Jiangdong's private soldiers. They are not good at attacking cities, so it makes sense that they can't attack Jingnan!"

Zhang Fei also said: "Our brothers have lost the battle, but if we hadn't contained Cao Cao in Jingnan, Sanjiangkou might not have fought so smoothly!"

Liu Bei immediately bowed and saluted: "If you lose a battle, you lose a battle. Liu Bei doesn't ask for mercy, but asks the governor to punish him according to military law!"

Zhou Yu was silent for a moment, Jiangdong's military law only applies to Jiangdong.

But he, Liu Bei, is an outsider, and Zhou Yu has no right to deal with it.

Lu Su stood up again: "Grand Governor, this matter should be decided by the lord!"

"That's all!" Zhou Yu waved his hand: "Report to the lord quickly, let him decide this matter, let's all go down!"

"Obey!" All the generals clasped their fists to signal each other, and each withdrew from the army tent.

Early the next morning, Zhou Yu received the news that Cao Cao sent an envoy, Liu Xun, to come.

Zhou Yu smiled, recognizing this person.

Liu Xun was the first prefect of Lujiang.

Because Lujiang was attacked by Sun Ce, he had no choice but to take refuge in Cao Cao.

It belongs to Jiang Dong's defeated general.

"Please come in!" Zhou Yu beckoned.

"Obey!" Lu Meng clasped his fists, and immediately went out of the big tent to welcome Liu Xun in.

As soon as he entered the camp, Liu Xun smiled and said, "Gongjin, long time no see!"

Zhou Yu snorted coldly: "You and I are friendly, why did Cao Cao send you here? Tell me quickly and I will listen!"

The smile on Liu Xun's face disappeared immediately, and it seemed that there was no way to make a relationship.

He bluntly said: "Zhou Gongjin holds the power of the Jiangdong navy, and one person is below ten thousand."
