Chapter 1008

Chaisang city.

"Wenlie, I have to thank you for this time, or my uncle will be buried in Jiangxia city." Cao Ren said with a bitter smile.

"It's all a family. Why should uncle be polite?" "The most important thing now is how to deal with the enemy."

As soon as this was said, all Cao's generals inside and outside the hall were silent and did not know what to say, because the Xiliang army was so powerful that they felt powerless.

"If we stick to Chai sang, we will certainly engage in water warfare with him. Most of our navy divisions are new practitioners. Although most of them are southerners, they are accustomed to water warfare, but after all, they are inexperienced. If we confront the Xiliang water army head-on, I am afraid it will be disadvantageous." Cao Xiu sighed.

When sun Chai was in the Yangtze River for a long time, he was in a special position to practice in the water area around the Yangtze River. If Cao Jun chose to stay in Chaisang, he would surely have to command the newly trained Navy and fight against Gao Chong's experienced Xiliang Navy, and the consequences are naturally imaginable.

Cao Ren nodded: "Wenlie is right. In this south of the Yangtze River, the water army is indeed the most important. As the saying goes, the ship in the South and the horse in the north are really true."

"If we don't stick to Chaisang, will we retreat to Jiangdong six counties? I'm afraid those gentry will not support us at that time. " Cao Tai worried.

After Liu Biao died, his son Liu Cong surrendered to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao got Jingzhou and more than ten thousand water infantry troops without any reason. Naturally, he was covetous of Jiangdong. Naturally, Sun Quan was worried. He summoned his officials to discuss how to deal with the matter. As a result, apart from Lu Su and Zhou Yu, most of his officials, including Zhang Zhao, who were important officials, urged Sun Quan to submit himself.

These gentry had always been like this, and they were most important to their own interests. Therefore, they did not want Sun Quan and Cao Cao to fight a decisive battle to damage their own interests. We should know that since Sun CE swept Jiangdong, it has been nearly ten years since Sun CE ruled Jiangdong. These gentry still did not hesitate to betray Sun Quan. Now that Cao Cao occupied Jiangdong less than two years ago, these gentry could not support Cao Jun wholeheartedly.

Thinking of this, people are more silent and don't know how to deal with it.

At this time, a Cao soldier suddenly broke into the hall, shouting: "generals, Huainan emergency military situation!"

"Bring it."

Cao Renzhao waved, Cao Tai stepped forward and handed the intelligence results to Cao Ren.

Cao Ren opened a look, and immediately frowned.

"What's the matter, uncle?" Cao Xiu realized that something was wrong.

"It's over... It's over."

Cao Ren's face was almost despairing. He said to Cao Xiu, "Wen lie, Yuan rang was defeated again... Now almost all the land of Huainan is in the hands of Liu Bei. Our army and the prime minister... Are disconnected."

Once this was said, Cao's face in the hall changed greatly. We should know that Huainan is the connection between the six counties in Jiangdong and Xuzhou. Once Huainan falls into the enemy's hands, the link between the Cao army in Jiangdong and the Cao army in Xuzhou will be completely broken...

"what should we do? What should our army do?"

"Each fighting for its own sake? It's over. There's no hope of fighting like this. "

"We have to find a way to get in touch with the prime minister."

No matter young and inexperienced young players or experienced veteran generals, they are all panicked because the situation is too unfavorable for them.

Suddenly, Cao Xiu's eyes lit up.

"Yes! Our army can go north! "

"North?" Cao Ren frowned.

"Yes, it's North!" Cao Xiu said confidently, "since the six counties in Jiangdong are no longer defensible, why should our army stay here?"

"Now Huainan county is almost occupied by Liu Bei, but Liu Bei's military strength does not exceed 30000. After our army joins forces with uncle yuanrang, our army will surpass Liu Bei even more!"

"Moreover, our navy can come and go freely in Chaohu Lake of Huainan. With the cooperation of the Navy, Liu Bei is definitely not our army's opponent."

After listening to Cao Xiu's description, Cao Ren couldn't help nodding, admitting that what he said was reasonable.

"Wenlie, you're right." Cao Ren solemnly said: "Zhang jaw and Gao Chong are powerful. If our army has a decisive battle with the enemy in Jiangdong, it will be very difficult for us to be the enemy's opponent."

"Huainan was occupied, so that the contact between our army and the prime minister was cut off. In this case, our army might as well simply cut off the strong men and completely abandon the land in the east of the Yangtze River and join up with Yuan rang in the north. Taking advantage of Liu Bei's unexpected attack, we can not only take the opportunity to wipe out Liu Bei's main force, but also break through Huainan."

This is also the best way at present. Instead of fighting separately and losing successively, we should not abandon the Jiangdong area and concentrate our troops to fight against Liu Bei's army. If we can win, we should stick to Huainan and echo with Xuzhou, at least for a period of time.

Cao Jun's generals all agreed: "at present, there is only this."

"Wenlie, go and arrange immediately. Before the front of the Xiliang army has arrived, our army must retreat quickly. Otherwise, once the enemy Navy intercepts us, we will not be able to leave even if we want to."...

Xuzhou, Pengcheng.

"Alas... I can't believe that Yuan rang was defeated again. Now the land of Huainan has fallen into the hands of Liu Bei. It's really... Alas!" Cao Cao sighed.

The loss of Huainan was an unexpected disaster for Cao Jun, which made Cao Jun in a disadvantageous position strategically.

Cao ang, the eldest son of Cao Cao, burst in and gasped to Cao Cao: "father, after hearing about the news of Huainan, Mr. Xi had to come to see you, and he couldn't stop him."

Cao Cao frowned and was about to scold Cao ang, but the actor had already come in.

"Keke... Duke Qi, I have to come. Please don't blame you." Xi Zhicai coughs. He used to look yellow, but now his face is gray, although the actor before the arrival of a layer of powder, but still difficult to hide.

"Zhicai, what are you doing here? If you are good at recuperation, the situation has not deteriorated to an uncontrollable state, and you have a way to deal with it. " Cao Cao held on to the playwright himself and reproached him.

"Ha ha, I naturally believe in Qi Gong. However, it's really boring to stay in the mansion recently. Sometimes I want to come out and breathe."

With a smile, Xi Zhicai immediately said, "Duke Qi, Liu Bei and Liu Ye are both family members of the Han Dynasty, but after all, they are different from each other. It is inevitable that there will be a rift between them. Moreover, I think Liu Bei is always ambitious and will not be willing to stay under Liu Ye for a long time. Our army can implement the strategy of estrangement."

"Estrangement?" Cao Cao's eyes brightened. He was originally a master at playing estrangement. He once wiped Han Sui between books.
