Chapter 132 My King, I Want To Personally Slaughter The Sima Clan! 【3】
Liu Bei's wine glass fell to the ground in shock.
Zhuge Liang Lufan also stopped shaking his head, and a line of surprise flashed across his confident and indifferent face.
The two masters suddenly looked at each other, their eyes were full of astonishment and disbelief.
Liu Bei immediately shouted and asked: "Yuan Shao's 100,000 army, with the backing of Hebei, how could he be defeated by Liu Wu and killed by that boy in a blink of an eye?"
With a sigh, Xu Shu told Liu Wu how he had robbed Yuan Shao of a million dendrobium grain and grass. Yuan Shao's army was distraught and forced to abandon the city and flee.
Then Liu Wu ambushed and besieged 100,000 Yuan's troops on all sides, and how Liu Wu ordered Lu Meng to lead the water army into the Yellow River in advance, and cut off Yuan Shao's return at Baima.
All kinds, one by one.
Liu Bei gasped, his expression fluctuated, showing both shock and resentment.
"Yuan Shao's plan to deceive the sky and cross the sea is not bad, but Liu Wu saw through it, this thief's wise plan has reached such a point..."
Zhuge Liang frowned deeply, and there was a look of fear between his brows.
Xu Shu sighed: "This is still the second thing. The key is that he sent a navy from the Yangtze River into the Yellow River one month in advance to cut off Yuan Shao's return route. Don't you think it's scary for Kong Ming to be so far-sighted?"
Zhuge Liang shivered slightly.
"boom!"
Liu Bei hit the case with his fists, and said bitterly: "Even Yuan Shao was defeated by him. Is it true that no one in this world can defeat him!"
The atmosphere in the hall was silent for a while.
"My lord, it seems that our strategy needs to be slightly adjusted, we can no longer sit idly by, and must participate in the Northern War.
Zhuge Liang calmed down, and suddenly said meaningfully.
Startled, Liu Bei raised his head and looked at Zhuge Liang, unable to comprehend his deep meaning for a moment.
"Yuan Shao is destroyed, and the next step is that Liu Wu will take advantage of the victory to cross the Yellow River to the north, defeat Yuan Shang, and seize one or four prefectures in Hebei."
"Once Liu Wu takes Hebei, the whole of Beibei will fall into his hands.
"What's more, he has swallowed Jiangdong before, and shares the natural danger of the Yangtze River with us."
"In such a situation, even if we capture the land of Shu and occupy the entire Jing and Yi prefectures, I'm afraid it will be difficult to compete with him."
"So the only plan for now is to send troops to the north to contain Liu Wu so that he can no longer go north to attack Yuan Shang and capture Hebei."
"As long as we can hold on for a year or so, we can win Yuan Shang a chance to breathe and restore him to the strength to separate himself from Hebei and confront Liu Wu across the river.
"At that time, there was Yuan Shang in the north, and the lord occupied the two prefectures of Jing and Yi. Only by attacking from the north and the south can we defeat Liu Wu and rejuvenate the Han Dynasty!"
Zhuge Liang came to the map, stroked the lupine, and re-drawn the blueprint for the picture.
Liu Bei nodded again and again, and said happily: "The military adviser is right, we should send troops, and we must not let Liu Wu go to attack Hebei"!"
The two of them have made a plan.
Liu Bei then assembled his troops and led an army of 50,000 from Xinye to the north, heading straight for Wancheng.
Baima crossing.
On the bank of the Yellow River.
Liu Wu and Cao Cao drink together while admiring the afterglow of the sunset.
"My son-in-law, Yuan Shao is dead, how do you plan to use your troops next?"
Cao Cao poured a glass of wine for Liu Wu himself.
Liu Wu gulped it all down, and said without hesitation: "Naturally, he crossed the Yellow River in one go, killed Yuan Shang, captured the four prefectures of Hebei in one fell swoop, and unified the north with Japan!"
"Well, my son-in-law is right."
"Although Yuan Shao is dead, Yuan Shang is still alive. The four prefectures of Hebei have millions of people. If he is given time to breathe, he will be able to train 100,000 elite soldiers within a year.
"At this time, taking advantage of his vital energy, attacking Hebei in one go and destroying the Yuan family is the best strategy."
Cao Cao nodded in agreement, and poured another glass of wine for Liu Wu.
"However, someone should be unstoppable and will intervene in the war in the north to prevent us from capturing Hebei.
Liu Wu changed the subject and had other meanings.
Cao Cao's thoughts changed, and he suddenly thought of something, and said, "Must the son-in-law mean Liu Bei?"
"Father-in-law thinks that my elder brother will sit back and watch us destroy Yuan Shang, rule the north, and then go back to the south to deal with him?"
Liu Wu asked with a sneer.
If Cao Cao realized something, he said: "From this point of view, Liu Bei should march into Wancheng and threaten Xudu, so as to force us to return to the army and buy time for Du Shang to recover.
Liu Wu nodded and said: "So, we still need a general to go to Wancheng to defend, hold Liu Bei back, and in turn give enough time for this king to attack Hebei.
Cao Cao fell silent.
After a long time.
Cao Cao happily said: "Son-in-law, if you can trust me, I would like to lead an army to Wancheng and guard against that big-eared thief for you!"
"My father-in-law is really knowledgeable...
Liu Wu secretly agreed in his heart.
If he went on an expedition to Hebei this time, with Cao Cao's disabled body, he would naturally not be able to go on an expedition with the army and could only stay in Xudu.
After Xudu was recovered, the emperor of Qiao County would naturally be moved back to Xudu.
Cao Cao wanted to do his part for Liu Wu, but also considered that staying in Xudu would make Liu Wu feel uneasy, so he took the initiative to ask Ying to guard Wancheng, which became the best of both worlds.
"Father-in-law goes to guard Wancheng, so he can stop it.
Liu Hui nodded happily when he saw Cao Cao's hard work.
Afterwards, he asked again: "I don't know how many soldiers and horses my father-in-law needs, and which advisers and generals he wants to assist?"
"Twenty thousand soldiers and horses are enough."
"As for counselors, I only defend but not attack, and I don't need any counselors."
"As for the general, I heard that Zhang Wenyuan is very good at defending the city. I don't know if my son-in-law can transfer him to me?"
"The other counselors, generals, and sons-in-law are all taken to Hebei, and we should deal with that kid Yuan Shang."
Cao Cao smiled lightly.
20,000 soldiers and horses, no more, no less, more than enough to defend but not enough to attack, the number is just right.
The only general he wanted was Zhang Liao, who was also Liu Wu's confidant general.
As for Guo Jia, Cao Ren, Xiahou Dun, and Le Jin, all of his old troops were handed over to Commander Liu Wu Xia.
Cao Cao's intention was to take this opportunity to hand over military power, put Guo Jia and other old troops in good standing, and place them under the direct command of Liu Wu.
And he himself has formally changed from an ally on an equal footing with Liu Wu to a general guarding the Quartet for Liu Wu.
Liu Wu naturally understood that Cao Cao wanted to show once again that he gave way to himself and surrendered to his sincerity.
∼Okay, just as my father-in-law said. "
Liu Wu readily agreed, and cupped his hands: "The king of Wancheng will be handed over to his father-in-law. Within three months at most, this king will definitely destroy Yuan Shang, and send his troops south to join his father-in-law to completely destroy Liu Bei."
"good!"
Cao Cao said with emotion: "I am waiting for your good news in Wancheng!"
Weng and son-in-law raised their glasses and drank them down in one gulp, looking at each other and laughing.
Two days later, Cao Cao led 20,000 soldiers and horses to go south to Wancheng.
At the same time, Zhao Yun from Liuzhen Qiao County also escorted Liu Xie and Emperor Fushou to set off, and the holy driver returned to Xudu.
And Princess Mi Huan, who was in Xiapi, also set off with all her wives and moved to Xudu.
At Baimadu, Liu Wu gathered his soldiers and prepared to cross the Yellow River, take Yecheng directly, and completely destroy the Yuan family.
Wang Zhang.
Liu Wu summoned all the advisers and generals to jointly govern and take the strategy of Hebei.
"Liyang on the north bank is originally the gateway to Hebei, so there should be heavy troops guarding it."
"But Yuan Shao's 200,000 army was wiped out, and Yuan Shang had less than 30,000 available troops, so he did not dare to divide his troops to defend Liyang, so he had to lead his army back to Yecheng."
"According to Jinyiwei's information, Yuan Shang is reinforcing the city wall of Yecheng, and at the same time sending people to rebuild the defense line of Yijing."
"All kinds of signs show that Yuan Shang should have no confidence in defending Yecheng, and is preparing to retreat to Yijing and separatist You (Zhao Dezhao) Prefecture.
Guo Jia told the information about Hebei.
Liu Wu nodded slightly, then said: "Then Fengxiao thinks, how should we use our troops?"
"Back then, Gongsun Zan fought with Yuan Shaochen for a full year by virtue of the Yijing defense line, and its strength was far better than that of Yecheng."
"Jia believes that we must make a quick decision to encircle Yuan Shang in Yecheng, and never give him the chance to flee to Yijing and fight a protracted war with us!"
Guo Jia cupped his hands and presented a strategy.
"It is reasonable to follow the words of filial piety!"
A flash of determination flashed in Liu Wu's eyes, and he said sharply: "Tomorrow, you will lead an army of 50,000 infantry, cross the river from Baima, and station in Liyang. My prince will personally lead 10,000 cavalry to conquer Hanoi County first, and then join you and others, riding straight ahead." Take Yecheng!"
The general order of the Northern Expedition was issued, and all the generals responded in unison with enthusiasm.
"Hanoi County is not an important place. After the capture of Ye City, the news can be confirmed. Why does His Highness need to attack it personally?"
Guo Jia was puzzled and couldn't help asking.
"Sima Yi's hometown is in Hanoi County!"
"This king wants to go there personally and slaughter the Sima clan!"
Liu Wu's eyes flashed fiercely, expressing his intentions coldly. .
