Chapter 386

Jia Xu and Sima Yi smile at each other, and they look at them puzzled. Jia Xu and Sima Yi look at each other. Finally, Jia Xu makes a gesture to Sima Yi. Sima Yi stood up and said, "let me explain his meaning instead of Dudu."

When Xia Houdun saw Sima Yi say so, he immediately sat down, as if he knew what Sima Yi was going to say. Sima Yi first arched his hand at Cao Cao and then said to the crowd, "the meaning of Dudu Du is not difficult to understand in a different direction. To send troops to Hanzhong, it is not necessary to go from Qishan. Have you forgotten that there is still a way to march into Hanzhong besides Qishan? "

"Ah Xu you suddenly exclaimed, "is it the upper valley?"

"Yes Sima Yi nodded and said with a smile: "the meaning of the governor of Dadu, in my opinion, should be to start from Tianshui, go south from the upper valley, walk tielongshan, and then follow Yinping, Tuzhong, Wenshan, Jiangyou, Zitong, Fucheng, Mianzhu, and directly seize Chengdu! Then we will take Hanzhong and Bajun! If we cut off the rear of Zhao Yun's 400000 army in Qishan, and there is no supply of food and grass, even if they have a strong general like clouds, and there are still 400000 troops, it is not enough to cause trouble! "

After hearing Sima Yi's simple words, a new road was opened up, and all the people were Mao Zedong. Cao Cao himself was very excited and even patted his thighs. He felt that his gout was much better. Of course, Cao Cao did not forget Xia Houdun, who first put forward this proposal. Cao Cao said with a smile: "there are Chen Ren in Eastern Wu, but Xia Hou Dun in Northern Wei Dynasty! Yuan let this plan really solve my big problem

When Cao Cao said this, he had decided to send troops to the south. First of all, there is the question of who should lead the troops. Although there are some sneak attacks on the south this time, it is bound to be attacked by the Hanzhong allied forces after the capture of Hanzhong. In the Hanzhong allied forces, there were some fierce generals, such as Zhao Yun and LV Meng, who were the leading generals of the new Jiangdong army at that time. Therefore, to deal with the Hanzhong allied forces, the general must not be careless!

Ma Chao, one of the four generals of Chang'an, saw Ma Chao standing in the line directly, clasping his fist at Cao Cao and saying, "my Lord! At the end of the war

But before Cao Cao answered, Zhang Fei, another four generals of Chang'an, had already stood up and pulled Ma Chao behind him. Then he clasped his fist at Cao Cao and said, "Lord! Let's let Lao Zhang fight this battle! Hanzhong and Chengdu must be presented! "

After solving a big problem, Cao Cao was in a much better mood than he was just now. Seeing that the two generals were fighting for merit, Cao Cao could not help laughing and turned to Jia Xu for his advice. Jia Xu said with a smile, "my Lord! Zhao Yun was not only a strong general in Hanzhong allied forces, but also LV Meng, Ling Cao and Dong Chen. These three generals were no worse than Zhao Yun! It's very important to capture Hanzhong this time. My Lord, it's better to send more senior generals

"Well!" After thinking about it, Cao Cao felt that Jia Xu's words were reasonable. He swept around the audience, patted his thighs, nodded, and then called out, "Zhang Fei, Ma Chao, Zhang Liao, Cao Hong listen to the order!"

In addition to Zhang Fei and Ma Chao, Zhang Liao and Cao Hong immediately went out of the line, and together with Zhang Fei and Ma Chao, they hugged Cao Cao and said, "the end will be here."

With a smile, Cao Cao took out the brocade and silk from the copy in front of him. Then he wrote down the military orders on the brocade and silk. Then he took the seal of the king of Wei, put a cover on the brocade and silk, and handed it out directly. He said, "I order Zhang Fei to be commander-in-chief, Ma Chao, Zhang Liao and Cao Hong as deputy generals, and give you 200000 troops! According to the plan just decided, seize Chengdu, Hanzhong and Bajun! Are you confident? "

Zhang Fei and others were so excited that they knelt down to Cao Cao with their fists and said, "don't worry, Lord! At the end of the day, the general will wait to complete the Lord's military order With that, Zhang Fei, the commander-in-chief, came forward to take over Cao Cao's orders. Then, with the other three generals, they swaggered out of the assembly hall and went to allocate troops.

At present, there are only 200000 people and horses around Chang'an City, and these 200000 people are used to protect the safety of Chang'an, so they can't be allocated to Zhang Fei. So Zhang Fei's 200000 men have to go to the Yuzhou defense line in Yanzhou, and it will take some effort to go there. Of course, these people have to hurry up.

Looking at Zhang Fei's four generals in a hurry, Cao Cao and others couldn't help laughing. Cao Cao pointed to Zhang Fei's back and said to Guan Yu with a smile: "Yunchang! You should teach Yide well, and don't do so much in the future! Why are you going to be calm? " Guan Yu couldn't help but blush for his third younger brother, so he had to hug Cao Cao with embarrassment.

Zhang Fei had just gone down when he heard a cry. A sergeant came running in from the outside. As soon as he came in, he knelt down to Cao Cao and called out: "report! My Lord! There is an emergency report from Youzhou! "

"Youzhou!" Cao Cao frowned, what can you do in Youzhou, it's just that those alien races are making trouble again! As soon as Cao Cao thought of those alien races, he could not help but flash a trace of murder in his eyes! When the problem of Hanzhong has been solved, a team of foreigners must be drawn out and killed! In order to get rid of worries!The sergeant half knelt on the ground, took out a brocade bag from his arms, held his hands over his head, and then called out to Cao Cao: "Lord! A month ago, the Dongwu army suddenly appeared in Youzhou! The number is more than 500000! Now the whole city to the east of Youzhou has been occupied! General Cao Zhen, the governor of Youzhou, asked the Lord for help

"What?" Cao Cao could not believe his ears. "Why did the Dongwu army appear in Youzhou? How could that be possible? "

Not only Cao Cao, but all the important officials of the Northern Wei Dynasty were staring at the sergeant with wide eyes and a look of disbelief. After a short period of surprise, Jia Xu immediately frowned, because he remembered the incident more than ten years ago, is not it very similar to the current situation?

"Lord!" It seems that Cao's hand is very likely! Do you remember the mysterious army that appeared in Youzhou when he captured Youzhou

Cao Cao was stunned at first, but then nodded his head and said, "of course, I remember that at that time, my husband said that this army was the army of Soochow. However, after the army led by Yun Chang defeated this army, he did not know where to go."

Sima Yi, on the other side, suddenly burst into a light and asked, "does Mr. Jia mean that this army has been lurking in Youzhou for more than ten years? And then suddenly, especially now? "

"No!" Jia Xu shook his head, "impossible! If the soldiers of this army had been lurking in Youzhou more than ten years ago, then by now, the youngest soldier in this army is 30-40 years old. How can such an old soldier be able to fight? Moreover, since the Lord occupied Youzhou, he has to recruit soldiers every year in the cities and counties of Youzhou. Most of those who are old have already enlisted in the army. It is impossible for any army to hide in Youzhou! "

"Why did the gentleman suddenly mention the past ten years ago?" Cao Cao frowned and asked. His good mood had been destroyed by the sudden news. If this information is accurate, then it means that the rear of Cao Cao is no longer safe! Fortunately, after so many amazing things, Cao Cao is now getting used to it and will not be so surprised.

Jia Xu frowned and said, "my Lord! My subordinates suddenly think of a problem that we have always ignored, that is the water army of Soochow! Can you remember that in the last battle of Qingzhou, it was the Dongwu water army that suddenly appeared and saved the Xuzhou army! "

How could Cao Cao forget that it was a battle that was bound to win, but because of the sudden appearance of the water army of the eastern Wu Dynasty, he was defeated. Even Xia Houyuan was killed by Gan Ning, commander-in-chief of the Dongwu water army. When he thought of it, Cao Cao was filled with anger. He wanted to kill Ganning in Dongwu and avenge XiaHouYuan.

Jia Xu continued: "the Dongwu water army suddenly appeared in Qingzhou. At that time, we all thought that it was because Dongwu could not transfer its troops, which made the Dongwu Navy set out from Xuzhou and rushed to Qingzhou to rescue. But now, my Lord, we are all wrong

"Wrong?" Cao Cao, Sima Yi and the people below were all in a fog. They looked at Jia Xu in a daze and didn't understand what Jia Xu meant.

Jia Xu said with a gloomy face, "my Lord! If I am not wrong, the army that suddenly appeared in Youzhou should be the water army of Soochow! We have been ignoring the water army

"Water army?" Cao Cao was said to be stunned. What does this have to do with the water army? Isn't that army attacking the city and plundering the land? How did the water army appear on the land.

Jia Xu seemed to want to understand the joints. He shook his head involuntarily and said with a bitter smile, "we all made a very important mistake! In our opinion, the water army can only boast in the river. Therefore, since Dongwu brought the Yangtze River into the hinterland, we have not paid attention to the water army of Dongwu! But the Dongwu water army has also undergone strict military training! Even though their combat effectiveness may not be comparable to the formal army, they are at least well-equipped regular troops! Last time we could think of driving the people of Jizhou to attack the city, so why can't Dongwu take the water army to attack the city? How to see, the water army is more powerful than those ordinary people? What a surprise! Wise men are wise, and their ideas are so similar! I just don't know who came up with such a strategy for Soochow? Guo Jia? Xun Yu? Zhou Yu? Or Chen Ren, the Dragon general
