Chapter 227 The wind suddenly rises

At this moment, a messenger came to Guo Yuan and gave him a military salute: "Uncle Guo Du, General Gao Xiang has presided over a military meeting and invites you to come." After saying this, he handed over the talisman.

Guo Yuan's inspection was correct and he said: "Guo Yuan's order!"

The messenger said again: "The general has made a special request to ask Liu Tuen Chief to attend."

Letting Mr. Chan attend the military meeting was obviously due to Liu Bei's instructions to let him have more experience so that he can make a difference in the future. This is what it should be. Guo Yuan nodded and said: "Okay!"



Military meetings are actually very simple, but they are also very important.

Because important military information came from the direction of Dingjun Mountain: Xiahou Yuan, the governor of Cao Wei, died in battle at the foot of Dingjun Mountain.

It turned out that for more than a month, Liu Bei had led his army to mount Dingjun Mountain, threatening Cao Jun's flanks and grain roads. Xiahou Yuan had no choice but to leave Sima Guohuai behind and personally lead the army to garrison at the foot of Dingjun Mountain with Zhang Suo's troops.

However, Liu Bei occupied Dingjun Mountain and was in a commanding position, while Xiahou Yuan was in a low-lying position, so Cao Jun could only build antlers as a siege at the foot of Dingjun Mountain. Among them, Xiahou Yuan himself built the southern siege, while Zhang built the eastern siege to prevent the Shu army from attacking.

Liu Bei set fire to all the southern and eastern sieges of Bian, and then sent Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun and others to specifically target the weak points of Cao's army for key attacks. This target was Zhang, and Zhang was indeed defeated by the Shu army.

Once the eastern siege is captured, Cao's army will be cut off by the Shu army, and will be completely wiped out on the south bank of the Han River. So Xiahou Yuan went to the southern siege to put out the fire in person, and then sent half of his troops to rescue Zhang. Unfortunately, Xiahou Yuan

Put yourself in a dangerous situation.

The commander Xia Houyuan was located in the protruding part and divided his troops to weaken the headquarters. Fazheng saw the opportunity and said "it can be attacked". Liu Bei sent Huang Zhong to lead his army to attack. Amid thunderous cheers, Shu army general Huang Zhong and Huang Han came to the battle and killed Xia Houyuan, the governor of Cao Wei.

, and Zhao, the governor of Yizhou, took advantage of the situation to cover up the killing, and Cao's army was defeated.

"Now Zhang and others have led the remaining troops to retreat to Yangping Pass overnight, and the lord has led the army to Dingjun Mountain and is approaching the Han River. Once Zhang and others are destroyed, our army will win a great victory and occupy Hanzhong!"

At the meeting, General Gao Xiang said excitedly.

"good!"

"Great kindness!"

"Long live my lord!"

All the generals in the audience immediately cheered and even Feng Zhou was smiling.

"We must strengthen our camp preparations to block Cao's army. We must not let Zhang and others jump over the wall in a hurry. When our lord's side has won the battle and our army is rejoicing, we must also remember that our task here is to protect the food road. As long as the food

A safe and worry-free path is a great achievement, do you understand?"

Gao Xiang said seriously.

"Promise!" All the generals agreed in unison, with high morale.

Lieutenant General Zhang Ni said: "Xia Houyuan is dead. Cao's army is leaderless and its morale has plummeted. As long as we guard the city tightly, we will be safe and sound."

"Not bad!" Other generals, soldiers, chiefs, and secretaries all nodded.

All the generals here are used to fighting. The war has been going on for several months. They all understand the key point here. Xiahou Yuan is the soul of Cao Jun in Hanzhong. Once he dies, Cao Jun will be frightened and can only shrink its defense.

Where do you dare to attack?

Seeing everyone's happy eyes, Feng Zhou frowned slightly.

"Prince, what do you think?"

Gao Xiang was sitting in the main seat, but he caught a glimpse of Feng Zhou hiding in the corner. When he saw him frowning slightly, he asked.

There was no other way. Feng Zhou was the legitimate son of the lord and the future successor. He had to show his face no matter what.

Seeing a young man of twelve or thirteen years old coming out of the queue, everyone's expressions changed and they murmured in their hearts.

"Master Chan is only twelve years old. It is already an exception to participate in a military meeting. How can he still go out to speak? If he says the wrong thing, how embarrassing will the general be?"

"I heard that Mr. Zen has trained a good soldier, and that his father was a hero in the past. But he is still young, how can he clearly see the current war situation? I'm afraid he will make a joke."

"Young master is young, I'm afraid it's inappropriate to speak rashly."

Everyone couldn't help but think of it.

While everyone was thinking in their hearts, Feng Zhou stepped out of the queue, bowed his hands and saluted, then raised his head and said:

"Reporting back to the general, my subordinates believed that since Xia Houyuan died in battle and Hanzhong was shaken, Cao Cao must have personally led the army. While he and the main force of our army were in a stalemate at Dingjun Mountain, with his old move of burning Wuchao, he would definitely send a general

Attack our army’s food route, so our army must unite as one and defend the camp!”

Seal the boat road.

"Hiss..." As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes changed.

The land of Hanzhong was very crucial and related to Cao Cao's great cause of relocating the people. How could he not care? Therefore, if Xia Houyuan died in battle, Cao Cao would definitely come in person.

Everyone has taken this into consideration, but if Cao Cao fails, there is a great possibility that he will send a vanguard general to attack our army's food road. This is something that no one has expected.

After all, there are steep mountains and deep ravines everywhere.

But everyone immediately thought that Cao Cao was a cheater and was used to taking risks, so they had to be on guard.

Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.

Master Chan is only twelve years old, but he has such a strategic vision, which is really amazing!

Those who had doubted Liu Chan just now couldn't help but blush, but they were extremely happy in their hearts.

If the lord has a successor, everyone will have more hope for the future!



Chang'an.

The temporary residence of the King of Wei.

"Wonderful talent, how can you leave me before your great career is settled?"

When he heard that his brother Xia Houyuan had died in battle, Cao Cao burst into tears and cried until his voice became hoarse.

Xiahou Chun, Xiahou, Xiahoushang, Cao Zhen and others on the side were all crying bitterly.

You must know that Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Chun, Cao Ren, and Cao Hong are Cao Cao's humerus brothers. It is the strong support of these four people that Cao Cao can get the full help of Xiahou and the Cao family, and then start his business.

These four people have always followed Cao Cao, fought bravely, served as Cao Cao's front army commanders, and fought bravely for Cao Cao's great cause.

It can be said that Cao Cao became Sikong, Prime Minister, and King of Wei. The four humerus brothers made great contributions to him.

But now that the north has been decided and the world is not unified, Cao Cao has not yet stepped onto that supreme position, but his brother died in the battlefield. The pain of losing his brother's flesh and blood is even stronger than the loss of a close relative for ordinary people.

After a long time, Cao Cao wiped away his tears and gritted his teeth and said: "We must kill the old thief Huang Zhong and cut Liu Xuande into thousands of pieces. It will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in Gu's heart."

Xia Houyuan is dead, and Cao Cao's army must be leaderless. At this time of hesitation, it is necessary to use military strength and speed to avoid making mistakes. Therefore, after Cao Cao burst into tears, he immediately convened a military meeting. Chief Shi Liu Yejin said: "If Hanzhong is lost, the Central Plains will be shaken. Your Majesty.

I have to quit my hard work and conquer it myself."

Cao Cao said: "I regret that Ziyang's advice at that time led to this. This time I will take the Baoxie Road, enter Hanzhong, kill Liu Bei and Huang Zhong, wipe out Shuzhong, and avenge the great talents!"

All the generals in the hall said in unison: "I am willing to follow the King of Wei and bring peace to Shu!"

Cao Cao's troops advanced in three groups: Xia Hou was the vanguard in the front, Cao Cao led the middle army, and sent Cao Xiu behind. The three armies set off one after another. Cao Cao rode a white horse with a golden saddle, and jade belts and brocade clothes;

True color: Brilliant and extremely majestic. It took twenty days to complete the Baoxie Road, pass Nanzheng, and stationed at Yangping Pass.

When Liu Bei heard that Cao Cao was coming in person, he withdrew from the Han River and returned to Dingjun Mountain. He still threatened Cao Cao's grain road. At the same time, he sent Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun to raid eastward to the foot of Beishan on the south bank of the Han River, almost blocking Cao Cao's grain road.

where the throat is.

Although Cao Cao was stationed at Yangping Pass, facing Liu Bei's threat, he could only cross the Han River like Xia Houyuan, reach Zouma Valley, and confront Liu Bei at the foot of Dingjun Mountain.

By this scenario, Cao Cao was already limited to a strategic dilemma.

Liu Bei didn't need to fight him at all, he just needed to continue the confrontation and wait for Cao Cao's rear to be in constant turmoil. The logistical disaster caused by relocation, corvee labor, and ensuring the army fought, was made worse by the arrival of Cao Cao's army in Hanzhong.

"No, we must fight Liu Bei, otherwise our army will be in a disadvantageous position." Cao Cao said in a deep voice in the tent.

The generals were silent.

It's not that everyone is ungrateful, it's because Liu Bei's army is hiding on Dingjun Mountain with sufficient water and complete supplies of food and grass. The mountain is dangerous. Once they raise their heads to attack, arrows will rain down like rain and they will suffer heavy losses.

The leader of the march, Bo Sima Yi, said: "Your Majesty, the reason why Liu Bei can live peacefully in Dingjun Mountain and not fight with me is because his food routes are safe. If his food routes are destroyed, Liu Bei will definitely be defeated."

Cao Cao was overjoyed and said: "Yes, the food route for Liu Bei's army is outside Yangping Pass and is protected by Gao Xiang's army. As long as Gao Xiang is defeated, the food route can be cut off. Liu Bei will be trapped in Dingjun Mountain and his defeat is certain."

He immediately shouted: "Cao Zhen, where is Xu Huang?"

Cao Zhen, whose courtesy name was Zidan, was a son of Cao Cao and served as the guard of the Shu Army. Xu Huang, whose courtesy name was Gongming, was then a general against the bandits.

After hearing King Wei's order, the two men immediately stepped forward and marched out of the queue, saying in unison: "The general is here!"

"I order you two to lead the army west out of Yangping Pass, defeat Gao Xiang, and cut off Liu Bei's food route."

He paused, and without waiting for the two of them to reply, he added: "I came to report in detail the day before yesterday. Liu Bei's legitimate son Liu Chan, whose nickname is Adou, is twelve years old this year. He is now a small village commander in Gao Xiang's army. If we can capture this

My child, it shocked Liu Xuande's mind, which is considered a miraculous feat!"

"No!" Cao Zhen and Xu Huang responded in unison.
