- Chapter 238: Trick
Hefei fell, Li Dian died, and the Huainan Tuntian District was flooded. If such a blow were to be dealt to Sun Quan or Liu Feng, it would definitely be a serious injury to the muscles and bones, but for Cao Cao, who was the second in the world. But it must not be so fatal.
As for the fall of Xiangyang and the capture of Cao Ren, although it was also a big blow, in fact, the hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops under Cao Cao's personal control did not suffer any substantial losses.
Cao Cao's military power is still the unshakable and strongest in the world.
As for Soochow, although Hefei was captured, the nearly one-year battle against Cao had put its domestic economy under heavy pressure.
After the Battle of Hefei, Sun Quan was no longer able to expand the fruits of victory to the north. Therefore, at Zhou Yu's suggestion, he temporarily stopped advancing northward and moved a large number of people from the south of the Yangtze River to Hefei. They imitated Cao Cao and implemented farming to prepare for the future advancement of Shouchun. .
Cao Cao, for his part, did not dare to rush southward until he could restore the farming economy in Shaopi. Cao Cao and Sun Yat-Sen formed a tacit understanding of a truce between Shouchun and Hefei.
As for Liu Feng, Cao Cao can be said to "love and hate".
When he raided Liu Bei's lair, Cao Cao was "in love".
When he captured Cao Ren and attacked Xiangyang, his "love" turned into hatred.
And when Liu Feng invaded Shu and once again ruined Liu Bei's good intentions of taking Shu, Cao Cao's hatred for him turned into "love" again.
I originally thought that the three people named Liu from Yizhou would kill each other in an inextricable manner, hurting both sides, and then wait for me to get out and clean up the mess.
But what surprised Cao Cao was that the war in Yizhou ended so quickly. Before he had time to withdraw from Huainan, Liu Feng, who made him "love and hate", had miraculously become a powerful warrior. The overlord of Jing and Yi states.
As for Liu Bei, who seemed to have an immortal body, he escaped from death and seized Hanzhong like a resurrection, and even colluded with Ma Chao, the disgusting butcher of Xiliang.
Liu Bei captured Hanzhong, which Cao Cao could not bear.
Even when Liu Bei captured Jingzhou, Cao Cao didn't think he could pose a threat to him. However, when Liu Bei only got a mere Hanzhong county, Cao Cao felt a chilling threat.
Hanzhong is such a special place. Once Liu Bei establishes a foothold here and uses Ma Chao's prestige in Xiliang to go north from the Qinling Mountains and seize the Guanlong land, the blow to him and Cao Cao will be simply worse than ten defeats at Chibi. Even more serious.
The reason why Cao Cao controlled the world and ignored Sun Liu in Jiangnan was because of his powerful cavalry.
If Liu Bei captures Guanlong, obtains Xiliang's horses, builds an equally powerful cavalry, and then advances eastward into the hinterland of the Central Plains by attacking from west to east, no one will be able to predict the outcome.
Liu Feng and Sun Quan only suffered from skin diseases, but Liu Bei in Hanzhong was a serious problem.
Cao Cao decided to nip this henchman's trouble in the bud, so less than five months after the defeat of Hefei, he personally led an army of 150,000 to march westward to Hanzhong.
Xiangyang City, the state capital.
Liu Feng held this piece of information in his hand, his expression filled with excitement.
Previously, although he, Liu Bei, Cao Cao and Sun Quan were fighting against each other, after the war, a new balance was formed.
At present, Cao Cao's use of troops against Hanzhong means that the balance is broken.
Liu Feng will never forget what Pang Tong said: The day the balance is broken is when the opportunity comes.
Now Liu Feng saw the opportunity.
"Sir, look at this Cao"
When Liu Feng was about to ask Pang Tong for advice, an attendant came to report that he was an envoy from the imperial court and had arrived with the imperial edict from the Han Emperor.
"Cao Cao is playing tricks again.",
Liu Feng sneered, and immediately led a group of civil and military officials from Jing and Xiang to greet the imperial edict.
Although Liu Feng and Cao Cao were once fighting to the death, Liu Feng, who was still nominally serving as the emperor of the Han Dynasty, still had to deal with this imperial edict knowing that it was Cao Cao's order.
But Cao Cao¡¯s imperial edict slightly surprised Liu Feng.
This northern hero not only formally recognized Liu Feng's self-declared position as a former general in the name of the Han Emperor, but also made him Marquis of Jiangling County.
In addition, the imperial edict also ordered Liu Feng, as a former general, to lead the troops from Jingyi and Yizhou to attack Liu Bei from Yizhou to Hanzhong County to cooperate with the imperial court's conquest of Liu Bei from Guanzhong.
"This Cao Cao, he thought he was giving me this little advantage, so he wanted me to control Liu Bei from behind, so that he could take advantage of the situation and profit from it. His plan worked??Okay. "
After sending the angel away, Liu Feng was holding the worthless edict in the meeting hall with a look of disdain on his face.
"If this is the case, then we will use our strategy and move all our troops to Xichuan to make preparations to attack Liu Bei. When Cao Cao raises his troops south to the Qinling Mountains, we will sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. When the two tigers fight and kill both, we will be injured. , if we take the opportunity to profit from it, we may be able to seize Hanzhong in one fell swoop."
After seeing through Cao Cao¡¯s intentions, Kuai Liang immediately gave a countermeasure.
"Mr. Shiyuan, what do you think?"
Kuai Liang¡¯s strategy secretly aligned with Liu Feng¡¯s, but he still had to consult Pang Tong for his opinion.
Pang Tong did not respond, but took the imperial edict and read it carefully over and over again.
The suspicion on that dark face became increasingly intense.
It seems that Pang Tong saw something strange.
Liu Feng immediately became alert and asked suspiciously: "Sir, do you think Cao Cao has another evil plan?"
After pondering for a moment, Pang Tong raised a sneer on his lips.
He raised the imperial edict and asked: "My lord, don't you think that the hidden intention of Cao Cao's imperial edict is too obvious?"
As soon as these words came out, Liu Feng suddenly had an idea and vaguely guessed something from it.
"Sir, what you mean is"
Pang Tong chuckled and said unhurriedly: "With Cao Cao's treachery and the cleverness of his advisers, of course he should be able to figure it out. This imperial edict alone is not enough to deceive us. For us, the best The choice is to pretend to be accommodating and reap the benefits secretly. However, knowing this, why did Cao Cao send this edict in vain? "
Liu Feng suddenly realized that before he could say anything, Kuai Liang on the side said in shock: "Shi Yuan, what do you mean, is it possible that Cao Cao obviously wants to attack Liu Bei, but secretly wants to take the opportunity to lead my army to Yizhou, and then Can you take advantage of this opportunity to plot against Xiangfan?"
Pang Tong didn't answer, but Liu Feng said categorically: "Don't think too much, Cao Cao's treacherous plan must be like this. Xiangyang is like a nail inserted near Xu Luo's heart. If this nail is not removed, how can Cao Cao rest assured? Liu Bei soldiers."
"My lord is wise."
Pang Tong smiled faintly and stroked his beard and said: "Although the land of Guanlong is important, Liu Bei is just a new conqueror of Hanzhong after all. It is difficult to launch a large-scale army against Guanlong in a hurry. Last year, Xiahou Yuan stepped forward to the right of Guanlong, and his majesty was still there. Liu Bei would not There is no fear. At this time, Cao Cao ignored the threats from Shouchun and Wanluo and rushed to attack Liu Bei. He was clearly Xiang Zhuang's sword dance, aiming at Pei Gong."
After Pang Tong said this, the situation suddenly became clear.
Kuai Liang sighed: "It seems that the land of Jingxiang is about to suffer the torment of war again."
Liu Feng sneered and said: "Since Mr. Cao is so interested in us Jingxiang, how can we not do some courtesy as landlords? Let's use this trick to let Mr. Cao see how I, Liu Feng, treat guests."
Now that the discussion was settled, Liu Feng pretended to reply to the angel and promised to send troops to Hanzhong.
In order to deceive others, Liu Feng sent an order to Yizhou, ordering the troops in Yizhou to build up momentum and prepare to march north.
Regarding Jingzhou, Liu Feng also transported troops to Yizhou by water with great fanfare. In fact, the ships bound for Yizhou were all empty ships disguised as full of soldiers.
??¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
Hanzhong, Nanzheng.
Outside the high gate hall, a strong figure was pacing back and forth, with loneliness and anxiety appearing and disappearing on his upright face.
From time to time, he unfolded the silk letter in his hand and read it over and over again. Every time he saw the letter that made him worried, the uneasiness and worry on his face became more intense.
He rushed to the door several times and wanted to go in, but stopped outside the threshold several times.
He didn¡¯t know how long he hesitated, but he gritted his teeth, forced himself, and walked into the hall reluctantly.
"I've met Mr. Xu." The maids inside were busy saluting.
Xu Shu temporarily put away his anxiety and said softly: "Go and tell the lord that Xu Shu wants to see you."
The maids came out within a moment of entering, saying that Liu Bei had invited him in.
Xu Shu took a deep breath and walked slowly into the inner room with steps that were like lead.
In the large room that once belonged to Zhang Lu and was full of Taoist architectural style, Liu Bei was standing with his hands behind his back, looking at the high-hanging Guanlong map with his brows.
At this moment, Liu Bei's mind was racing across the vast land of Guanlong.
¡°?Zhizhi, you came at the right time. I recently heard that Cao Cao planned to raise troops to attack Hanzhong. I was thinking about how to deal with it, and you just happened to discuss the details with me. "
Liu Bei pulled Xu Shu to the map, pointed at various key points on the map, and kept talking about his strategy.
Xu Shu just stood there without saying a word, listening silently.
He looked in a daze, as if he was worried, and did not listen to a word of Liu Bei's words.
"Yuan Zhi, do you think my strategy of arranging troops is feasible?" After Liu Bei finished speaking, he turned to Xu Shu and asked.
"Um?"
Xu Shu woke up from his trance, with a confused look on his face. He obviously didn't hear what Liu Bei said.
With Liu Bei¡¯s insight, how could he not see the clues?
Liu Bei's originally excited expression soon became calm. He looked at Xu Shu and asked, "Yuan Zhi, you seem to have something on your mind. We, the monarch and our ministers, treat each other with sincerity, so you might as well speak up."
Xu Shu's expression once again became anxious, as if he was suffering from so much suffering and torture in his heart, forcing him to make a difficult decision.
After a long time, Xu Shu let out a long sigh.
He lowered his head, not daring to look Liu Bei in the eye. He bowed deeply, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, to be honest, I came here to say goodbye to you."
