Liu Bei is in his study in the Hanzhong Prefecture. He looks very relaxed on the surface, but he is not calm in his heart. His face is full of excitement and even a little nervous.
Since the occupation of Hanzhong, everything has gone smoothly. After a year of hard work, the strength has greatly increased.
Now that he has 60,000 elite soldiers and plenty of food and grass, he has already been ready to make a move, but it is a pity that he does not have the right opportunity.
Now Liu Cong has sent troops, and Jiangdong Sun Quan is also ready. The time for him to break out of Hanzhong and fight for world dominance is finally coming.
"Report to your lord, Military Advisor Zhuge and Yan Changshi are here to see you." At this time, a soldier came in to report.
As soon as he heard that Zhuge Liang and Yan Pu wanted to meet, Liu Bei immediately realized that there was important news and it was related to sending troops.
"Let them wait in the lobby!"
"No!"
"I order all civil and military personnel to go to the hall to discuss matters immediately!"
"No!"
After the soldiers went out, Liu Bei immediately tidied up his clothes and came to the hall.
"See my lord!" Zhuge Liang and Yan Pu were already waiting in the hall.
"No gifts!"
Liu Bei came to his seat, and soon, Jian Yong, Sun Qian, Mi Zhu, Zhang Lu, Zhang Wei, Zhang Fei, Guan Yu and other civil and military officials came to the hall.
"Brother, are you going to attack Cao Cao? My old Zhang's hands have been itchy for a long time!" Zhang Fei shouted with a loud voice. He has been in Nanzheng for some time and can't wait for the war.
"Yes, brother, the troops have been prepared for several days. When can we send out the troops?" Guan Yu was also a little anxious.
"Everyone, please be patient and listen to the military advisor's arrangements!" Liu Bei has also been immersed in new books recently, but he understands that Zhuge Liang must have received a lot of favorable battle reports when he came to see him today.
"My lord, Liu Cong, the herdsman of Jingzhou, has captured Dongling Pass, and now his troops are divided into two groups to attack Yuzhou. Although Tian Yu, the governor of Yuzhou, is both wise and brave, he has no soldiers or generals under his command. It won't take long for Liu Cong to be able to Take all of Yuzhou and threaten Yanzhou and Xuzhou. At the same time, Deng Ai led the army to station in Luoyang. Therefore, his subordinates believed that Cao Cao's army would definitely gather in the areas of Baima, Guandu, Chenliu, Shouchun, and Guangling, and Zhong Yao's army in Chang'an would be isolated. Outside, it¡¯s a great time for us to send troops!¡±
"Liu Cong has captured Dongling Pass?" Liu Bei was shocked when he heard Zhuge Liang's words. Dongling Pass is a dangerous pass. Cao Cao sent Cao Zhen to lead five thousand troops to guard it. It was unexpected that it was breached so quickly.
"Yes, Liu Cong leads Pang Tong and Fazheng, and there are 40,000 troops. Cao Zhen is naturally no match. I estimate that it won't be long before Hulao Pass will be breached. Cao Cao can only defend Yanzhou by gathering a large army."
"Brother, just give me the order, how to fight?" Zhang Fei was already impatient.
"Kong Ming, how should we send troops?"
"My lord, I have discussed with Yan Changshi that we should divide our troops into two groups. Five thousand soldiers and horses will come out of Ziwu Valley to threaten Chang'an. Thirty thousand soldiers and horses will come out of Xie Valley to attack Yicheng and divide Cao's army in Guanzhong. Two sections, then occupy Xiahou Dun in the east and attack Chang'an in the west!"
"Brother, I am willing to lead the army to attack Xicheng!" Zhang Fei immediately asked for orders.
Guan Yu wanted to step forward to ask for his orders, but Zhang Fei beat him to it, so he stroked his long beard and said nothing.
The road in Ziwu Valley is difficult, and only five thousand troops were sent. It was obviously just for containment. Everyone knew this, so Guan Yu didn't bother to compete for the commander of the troops and horses along this route.
"My Lord, although there are only five thousand soldiers and horses along the Ziwu Valley, it is very important. Only by drawing all Zhong Yao's attention here can the other route be successful. Therefore, the person who leads the army must have the power to intimidate Cao's army. !¡±
After Zhuge Liang said these words, everyone looked at Guan Yu. Obviously, the person who best meets this condition is Guan Yu.
But regarding the gloomy face, he still didn¡¯t say anything.
"Yun Chang, I order you to lead five thousand soldiers and horses, with Guan Ping as the deputy general, and come out of Ziwu Valley to frighten Chang'an!" Liu Bei took out a command arrow.
"Brother, to contain Cao's army, just send a general. I am willing to charge into the battle for you!"
After Guan Yu finished speaking, both Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei felt a little embarrassed, and everyone else also had helpless looks in their eyes.
"Yun Chang, the containment this time is extraordinary. If an ordinary person went there, how could it attract Zhong Yao's attention? The matter is very important, and it must be Yun Chang! If Chang'an can be captured, Yun Chang should be the first to do so!"
"Second brother" Zhang Fei was also a little anxious.
"Forget it, I will lead the troops out of Ziwu Valley. As for this achievement, I will rely on my crotchHorse, fight with the knife in your hand instead of sitting back and enjoying the results! "After Guan Yu finished speaking, he took the order arrow.
"Zhang Fei is the commander-in-chief, Zhuge Liang is the military advisor, Yang Ren and Zhang Wei are the vanguard, and we will lead 30,000 troops out of the Xie Valley to attack Yicheng!" Liu Bei took out the second command arrow.
"Promise!" Zhang Fei took the command arrow excitedly.
"Mi Zhu and Yan Pu are responsible for the supply of food and equipment. The army will set off tomorrow!"
"No!"
The plan to send troops has actually been decided long ago, and we are just waiting for the opportunity. Therefore, all preparations will be completed soon.
In the evening, Zhuge Liang came to Liu Bei's study.
"What's the matter with Kong Ming?"
"My lord, my subordinates speculate that the mediocre Li Yan may move."
"Shangyong? Li Yan?" Liu Bei frowned.
Zhuge Liang took out a map, unfolded it and pointed to the location of Shangyong.
"Lord, please see, north of Shangyong and beyond Wei Xing, there is Wuguan. After Wuguan, there is Chang'an. Cao Cao sent Zang Ba to garrison in Wei Xing. Originally there were only 5,000 troops, but later it was increased to 10,000. However, There are only three thousand in Wuguan. Once Wei Xing falls, Wuguan will soon be breached and troops will be able to attack Chang'an. Therefore, Liu Cong will definitely send Li Yan to send troops."
"Then let's"
"The location of Shangyong is so important. Hanzhong is to the west, and Brazil and Langzhong are to the southwest. If we can capture it, the Lord will be like a hidden dragon entering the sea, and he can gallop around at will!"
"Kong Ming, we are now allies with Liu Cong. Once we attack Shangyong, we will lose our righteousness. According to the alliance, Yizhou and Jiangdong"
"My lord, don't worry. After Liu Cong captured Yuzhou, his strength increased dramatically. Jiangdong and Yizhou will definitely be wary. They will never embarrass us. Moreover, Liu Cong is repairing Luoyang. From now on, his eyes will be on the north."
"That's fine!" Liu Bei nodded.
"My lord can send someone to investigate Shangyong's movements at all times. If there is an opportunity, make an immediate decision!"
"Don't worry Kong Ming, I will never miss this opportunity!"
¡°My lord, when we send out troops this time, we can say that we plan before we move, and everything is foolproof, but¡±
"What else does Kong Ming have to worry about?"
"I'm worried about Yunchang"
"My two brothers, although they both have some shortcomings, are highly skilled in martial arts and very strategic. They are both handsome men. Don't worry, Kong Ming!"
"Although Yide is reckless, he is rough but subtle. I am not worried about this. It's just that Yun Chang is too arrogant. It should be noted that the most taboo word for commanders of the three armies is the word arrogance. I hope the lord can remind him more!"
