Chapter 796: Seeing Through
Cao Cao is looking at the present, but Xi Zhicai is looking further. If he can really defeat Liu Biao again, then his strength will definitely weaken further. When the time comes, Yuan Shao will definitely not miss this opportunity and lead his army to attack Xiangyang.
.
"In this case, there is a lot of potential for this matter, but Liu Biao will definitely have a lot of troops and horses to attack Jiangxia again this time. It is easy to win, but it is very difficult to win a big victory."
Xun Yu nodded aside. What Xi Zhicai said was right, but it was difficult to achieve it.
"Haha, Wen Ruo, what Zhicai said is just victory. As long as we can defeat Liu Biao once, we can hold back his main force, and Yuan Benchu will send troops by then."
Cao Cao glanced at Xun Yu. He already understood what Xi Zhicai meant. Just win. As for how many enemies he could annihilate, that was a later matter. This was because Yuan Shao saw the opportunity to send troops.
"Well, that's what it means."
Xi Zhicai nodded to Cao Cao. As expected, it was his lord who understood his thoughts best.
"Well, if that's the case, then let's act according to the plan. Zhicai, I'll leave it to you to contact Yuan Shao. You can go to Nanyang immediately."
Now that the planning has been completed, it’s time to implement it.
"Go as you please."
Xi Zhicai clasped his fist at Cao Cao.
"Well, let's do it."
"promise."
The plan was decided, Cao Cao led his troops directly from Anlu to Nanxin, while Huang Zu continued to garrison troops in Anlu. At the same time, there seemed to be rumors that Cao Cao and Huang Zu were not getting along, and they even had a fight at the banquet.
Like wings, spreading outward.
Xi Zhicai, escorted by Li Dian, drove directly from Jian to Nanyang.
"My lord Jiang Xia urgently reports."
Yuan Shu led his army to station in Chaisang, and the scouts quickly spread the news of their discovery.
"Wenpin was defeated, Cai Mao led his army back to Dangyang, Cao Cao and Huang Zu broke up on bad terms and even fought?"
Yuan Shu frowned when he heard the news from the scouts.
"Gongtai, what do you think of this news?"
Hearing Yuan Shu's inquiry, Chen Gong was stunned for a moment.
"Lord, I think it's suspicious that Cao Cao and Huang Zu are fighting."
"oh?
tell me the story."
Chen Gong's words made Yuan Shu smile slightly.
"My Lord, who is Cao Mengde?
He always makes plans before taking action. If he really wants to regain Huang Zu, there is absolutely no way he can give Huang Zu a chance to resist, let alone a fight and break up. I think they may be acting."
Chen Gong glanced at Yuan Shu, he clearly saw your smile, and he still had to say it himself.
"Haha, let's show it to Liu Biao, right? But Liu Jingsheng has two wise men under his command, Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang. Isn't it possible that they can't do it?"
Yuan Shu saw that there was something wrong with this matter, but if he really wanted to act for Liu Biao, wouldn't he be able to see it?
"My lord, the so-called authorities are obsessed with it, and bystanders are clear. Although Liu Biao knows a little about Cao Cao, he definitely does not know it as clearly as we do. Moreover, his disagreement with Huang Zu is probably what Liu Biao wants to see. If they really act like this, Liu Biao and his men will
Nine times out of ten, the adviser will be fooled."
Chen Gong thought for a moment and gave his own opinion. Everyone in the world knew that Cao Cao was a tycoon, but I'm afraid only they knew how difficult he was. Cao Cao's current script was probably what Liu Biao wanted, so now Liu Biao
It might be really difficult.
"Then do you think we should send someone to tell Liu Jingsheng?
Otherwise, he will really suffer a big loss this time."
Yuan Shu nodded to Chen Gong. If Liu Biao was really played by Cao Cao, then he would really lose his troops this time.
"My lord, can you imagine if Liu Biao really suffered a big loss in Jiangxia, what would the situation in Jingzhou be like next?"
Facing Yuan Shu's question, Chen Gong shook his head slightly.
"As for the situation in Jingzhou, Liu Jingsheng suffered a loss in Jiangxia. He must have known that it would be difficult to capture Cao Cao by himself. He should look for reinforcements next. As for where the reinforcements will come from?
The only two people left are me and Yuan Shao."
Yuan Shu thought for a moment and expressed his views on the situation in Jingzhou.
"Yes, Liu Biao will definitely ask for help next, but his first choice will definitely be Yuan Benchu, and it will definitely be Yuan Shao who uses Jiangxia as a bargaining chip to send troops. If the lord is Cao Cao, how should we deal with it now?"
Chen Gong nodded to Yuan Shu. He was right. If he lost his troops again, Liu Biao would realize that Cao Cao was powerful and would definitely look for foreign aid.
"If I were Cao Cao, I would definitely want to cut off Liu Biao's way of asking for help. The best way to prevent Yuan Shao from sending troops is to promise huge profits, such as supporting him to attack Xiangyang. I'm right."
Yuan Shu looked at Chen Gong, a flash of light flashed in his eyes,
It stands to reason that it is impossible for Cao Cao to unite with Yuan Shao now, but if Cao Cao can really defeat Liu Biao in Jiangxia, then Nanjun and Xiangyang will definitely be empty, which will give Yuan Shao a wonderful opportunity.
Nanjun and Xiangyang are no less rich than half of Yuzhou. He will definitely lead his army directly to the west and carve up Liu Biao with Cao Cao.
"Haha, in this case it will definitely be difficult for Liu Biao to resist the two-front attack of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao. Then he will ask us for help next. My lord, the campaign to pacify Jingzhou has begun. I suggest that troops and horses be mobilized from various places to prepare for the battle in Jingzhou.
"
A flash of light flashed in Chen Gong's eyes. Although the original Jingzhou was not monolithic, it was very difficult to rush in because both Liu Biao and Yuan Shao would rise up to resist. But now this opportunity has appeared. If he can seize it,
It will be much easier to pacify Jingzhou.
"But we are not ready to attack Jingzhou yet. If we enter Jingzhou rashly, I am afraid that we will not have enough troops."
Yuan Shu also saw the opportunity, but to be honest now, he was really not ready to go to war with Yuan Shao, and a rash advance would only drag himself down.
"My lord, this opportunity must not be missed, and it will never come back. If we really sit back and watch Yuan Shao and Cao Cao defeat Liu Biao and carve up Jingzhou, giving Cao Cao and Yuan Shao time to develop, they will definitely become a serious problem for us. I hope your lord will see it clearly."
Although Chen Gong also knew that his troops were outnumbered and he had lost many troops in the Battle of Yangzhou, this opportunity was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If he missed it, it would be even more difficult to contain Cao Cao and Yuan Shao.
"Let me think about it, let me think about it."
Yuan Shu also knew that if he really allowed Cao Cao and Yuan Shao to carve up Jingzhou now, he might really be breeding tigers. Waiting until he unified the north and then tried to attack Jingzhou would probably lead to a situation like the Three Kingdoms period.
But now, although I have many soldiers and horses, I don't have many that I can really mobilize. If I really want to participate in Jingzhou, I am unable to do so.
"If my lord is not aware of it, you might as well send a telegram to several military advisors to see what they think and make a decision."
Seeing Yuan Shu's hesitation, Chen Gong rolled his eyes and suggested to Yuan Shu to ask other people's opinions.
"Well, send a telegram to the other four people and ask for their opinions."
After hearing Chen Gong's words, Yuan Shu nodded. The so-called three cobblers are as good as one Zhuge Liang. With one more adviser, he might be able to come up with a solution that has the best of both worlds.
"promise."
After hearing this, Chen Gong directly clasped his fists and left to send a telegram.
