Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

"The nine prefectures of Jingxiang are extremely rich, and the food and grass stockpiled in Xiangyang City alone is already innumerable."

"Jingzhou's soldiers and horses add up to more than [-]. Although the combat strength is uneven, it is still a force that is not weak."

As soon as Xun You and Jia Xu's words fell, Cao Ren beside Cao Cao said, "There are still so many troops and food in Jingzhou? Why are they so vulnerable?"

Cao Ren's words made the Jingzhou old department standing in the hall somewhat embarrassed.

Seeing this, Cao Cao slightly reprimanded, "Zixiao, what are you talking about?"

"."

"Just kidding, gentlemen." After Cao Cao said "nonsense" in a serious manner, he suddenly explained with a smile, "Although Jingzhou has a lot of troops, there is a huge gap with our army in terms of training and armaments." gap"

Cao Cao said half of it but stopped talking.

Seeing this, Xun You followed Cao Cao's words and said, "Besides, we still have such artifacts as artillery. It is the wisest choice for them to choose to surrender."

Jia Xu followed Xun You's words and said: "We are ordered by the emperor to send troops to fight against the disobedient ministers, and we have righteousness. The colleagues in Jingzhou choose to surrender, not only to save the people of Jingzhou, but also to ensure their own future."

After hearing their explanation, Cao Ren said that he was "convinced".

At this time, Cao Cao asked his advisers again: "Gongda, Wenhe, when do you think it is better to attack Jiangdong?"

Xun You and Jia Xu looked at each other, and then replied: "If there is a long-lived sailor to lead the way, plus the [-] sailors in Jingzhou, I think it only takes two months of rest before they can go east!"

"Two months?" Seeing what Xun You said, other counselors stood up and questioned, "Is two months too urgent?"

Cao Cao couldn't help but nodded and said, "It's really too hasty."

Jia Xu and Xun You didn't expect Cao Cao to agree with the latter's words, which is a bit different from the Cao Cao they knew.

Lu Yan naturally knew why Cao Cao felt a little anxious, so he explained to Jia Xu and Xun You in a deep voice:

"It's like this. The prince's army probably won't go south.

So we have to wait until Wenyuan's army comes back from Bingzhou and enters Huainan before we can form an echo with our army. "

"Ah?" Xun You said in surprise.

Jia Xu asked in a daze: "Xianbei has been wiped out, why are the prince's army still in the north?"

"???"

"I seem to hear who was wiped out?"

"Xianbei. Xianbei was destroyed??!"

Chapter 529 I will go ahead to explore the road

In ancient times, the news was blocked, and Pang Tong had been blocking the situation in the north of Cao Jun in order to stabilize Jingzhou's army. So until now, everyone in Jingzhou thought that Youzhou was looted by Xianbei people and suffered heavy losses.

How could they have imagined that it was not Cao Cao who was unlucky in the end, but the Xianbei people who were invincible before!

The robbery destroyed my hometown. From ancient times to the present, I am afraid that there are only the Wuhuan of the former three counties and the current Xianbei clan.

Therefore, when people in Jingzhou suddenly heard Jia Xu say that the Xianbei people were wiped out, their shock and horror can be imagined.

This Cao Cao was able to fight deep into the grassland and at the same time fight against Jiangdong and Jingzhou. This strength must be too strong!

Cao Cao smiled and said: "You heard me right, the Xianbei people were indeed wiped out by us. By the way, the commander who led his troops deep into the grassland and defeated the Xianbei royal court in the middle and east was my eldest son Cao Ang Cao Zixiu !"

"Wow!"

There was an uproar in the hall again, followed by amazement and various praises,

"While the prime minister is fighting us, there is still a large army that can go deep into the grassland to fight Xianbei?!"

"Prime Minister Cao himself is not only capable of both civil and military skills, but the prince is also so brave and good at fighting!"

"It's really a tiger without a dog, a hero!"

These are all human beings. After listening to Cao Cao's words, they immediately noticed Cao Cao's love for Cao Ang.Which father doesn't want his son to be successful?Cao Ang performed well, and Cao Cao was happier than himself.

So the praises of Cao Cao and the praise and flattery of Cao Ang rushed to Cao Cao like a tide, drowning him in an instant.

Lao Cao was modest in his mouth, but his smug expression was unabashedly on his face.With such vigor, even Lu Yan couldn't help but want to go up and punch him twice after seeing it.

But Cao Ang can't go south now, so he has to wait for the army of Zhang Liao and Cao Zhang to come back and attack Jiangdong with Cao Cao.

"In that case, then we really have to wait a little longer." Jia Xu nodded slightly, but still said with some hesitation, "But Wen Yuan's men are all cavalry, and they are not familiar with water warfare. I'm afraid they won't be able to help you at first. busy"

Xun You nodded and said, "That's right, the prerequisite for all actions is to eliminate the navy in Jiangdong first."

"This important task will fall on the Dahan Navy and the Jingzhou Navy!"

Hear the sailor.Cai Hao, who was eager for quick success and quick profit, stepped forward before Lu Yan could speak, and said: "The last general is willing to be the vanguard, and he will definitely destroy all Jiangdong navy for the prime minister!"

Lu Yan was fine, but Gan Ning, Su Fei and Xu Sheng couldn't stand.

But just when they wanted to stand up and fight for this pioneer, Lu Yan shook his head slightly at the three of them.

Seeing that Lu Yan didn't let them fight for the vanguard, although Gan Ning and the three were puzzled, they still stabilized their bodies honestly.

After waiting for a while, no one else stood up in the hall.

Cao Cao glanced at Lu Yan incredulously, and then he could only reply: "Since that's the case, after two months, the Jingzhou Navy of Cai Mao and Zhang Yun will be the vanguard to face the Jiangdong Navy!"

"Here!" Cai Mao was overjoyed to be the pioneer.

In the past, he might not have dared to go head-to-head with the Jiangdong Navy.

But he had long heard that the Jiangdong navy was crippled by Lu Yan's navy. Not only did other warships sink hundreds of ships, but even two building ships were sunk because he knew that the Jiangdong navy had been crippled. After being hit hard, Cai Mao has the confidence to rely on his more than [-] sailors to pick up this bargain.

But are Sun Quan and Zhou Yu really that easy to deal with?

Lu Yan is not sure what kind of plane these two people can come up with. Now that someone is willing to go ahead to explore the way, Lu Yan is happy to see it.

Besides, Zhao Yun and Xia Houlan took Zhou Yan and led an army of [-] to march towards Wuling.

At the beginning of June, Zhao Yun's army barely encountered any decent resistance along the way, and successfully arrived at the city of Chanling, an important town in Wuling.

"According to previous information, Wuling prefect Jinxuan, Changsha prefect Han Xuan, Guiyang prefect Zhao Fan, and Lingling prefect Liu Du. Although these four supported Liu Qi on the surface after Liu Biao's death, they actually supported the army for self-government. Each becomes a country." Xia Houlan said to Zhao Yun and Zhou Yan.

After Zhou Yan heard this, he glanced at Zhao Yun and said, "Since you don't listen to orders, you are a traitor, just hit him!"

The four counties in Jingnan have a large territory, and their rule is also very prosperous.

Apart from having a smaller population than Jingbei, the overall strength is not much worse than Jingbei.

Moreover, the opponent can still rely on the city to hold firm. If they attack all the way, their [-] cavalry and [-] infantry may not be enough!

Xia Houlan looked at Zhao Yun and said, "Zilong, it's up to you to make up your mind."

Zhao Yun has also been thinking about strategies. He replied: "Jin Xuan, the prefect of Wuling, is from Jingzhaoren family. He is a civil servant, and he doesn't know the art of war. Chanling is only three days away from Wuling. If we use a surprise attack, we may get miraculous results. !"

Xia Houlan raised the iron spear and said, "Okay, then let me be the vanguard and take down Wuling City!"

"Go, the brothers in the Dragon Riding Battalion will be handed over to you, be careful." Zhao Yun still trusts Xia Houlan very much.

After Xia Houlan left, only Zhao Yun and Zhou Yan were left on the scene, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little strange.

Zhou Yan, who was carefree on weekdays, felt a little uncomfortable at the moment, as if ten thousand ants were crawling on her body, it was extremely awkward.

"That, little brother." Zhou Yan wanted to say something to ease the embarrassment.

But Zhao Yun took a step forward and said: "Don't worry, we will definitely be able to rescue your brother."

"Uh..." Zhou Yan blinked his eyes and said, "No. What I want to ask is, when will you marry me?"

"?" Zhao Yun was immediately stunned by the question, dare you not care about your brother at all?It's definitely my sister.

Seeing Zhao Yun's petrified expression, Zhou Yan explained: "The shadow guards have their own survival skills. They survived being pressed so hard by Pang Tong before. Now that I think about it, I don't have to worry about them."

Zhao Yun couldn't help nodding his head in agreement when he heard the words: "You're right, the shadow guards are proficient in disguise and lurking, and in terms of survivability, I'm afraid they are even better than us."

"Yeah, you can only complete more tasks if you survive first. This is what Sister Xue told me."

Zhao Yun smiled and said: "The shadow created by Mr. is an incomparable existence in this world!"

Zhou Yan also laughed, and the surrounding space seemed to brighten with her bright smile, "So...why are you marrying me?"

"Ka"

Zhao Yun's smile suddenly froze again, sometimes he was really hard to deal with this straightforward junior sister.

Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, Zhao Yun could only say: "The Jiangdong war is just around the corner. Or, after Jiangdong is pacified, I will marry you."

"It's a deal!" Zhou Yan showed a smug smile, then raised his spear, and said, "Come on, let's win quickly, the next is the time of two people!"

5 What's going on in Chapter Thirty, this is it?

Wuling City.

When Xia Houlan's cavalry was about to arrive in Wuling, Wuling prefect Jinxuan didn't realize what was going on.

But even though seeing Xia Houlan approaching the city, Jin Xuan, the governor of Wuling County, didn't take it seriously, and even ordered all the defenders to prepare to go out of the city to fight.

When Gong Zhi saw that Jin Xuan wanted to go out of the city to fight, he immediately persuaded him; "My lord, there are only [-] defenders in my Wuling city! Although Xia Houlan is only the deputy general of the dragon cavalry army, he is also a member of the army." A battle-hardened warrior, he still has cavalry under his command, we can’t go out of the city to fight with them in the field! Why don’t we just surrender here, or it may be safe for the soldiers and civilians in our city.”

"You fucking fart!" Seeing that Gong Zhi tried to persuade him to surrender, Jin Xuan was so angry that he yelled, "I'm just a warrior, I'm afraid of him? Surrender? Don't even think about it!"

Gong Zhi sighed immediately when he heard the words: "Your Majesty! Are you really going to fight Cao Jun regardless of the life and death of the people in the city?"

Hearing this, Jin Xuan was furious.

In a fit of rage, Jin Xuan raised her hand and slapped Gong Zhi across the face!

"Slap!" The slap was very loud.

Gong Zhi's face immediately flushed red.

"A dog who is greedy for life and afraid of death! If you want to live in vain, don't drag the county guard! If you dare to say such words that disturb the morale of the army, then don't blame the county guard for being ruthless."

Gong Zhi was slapped across the face, feeling both anger and humiliation in his heart.

But he also understands Jin Xuan's personality, and knows that Jin Xuan is definitely not joking sometimes, so even though he is extremely angry and aggrieved, he can only keep his mouth shut temporarily and dare not say anything more.

Seeing that Gong Zhi closed his mouth knowingly, Jin Xuan snorted coldly, then lit up all the soldiers and horses in the city, and went out of the city to form an array to meet the enemy.

outside the city,

Xia Houlan, who was about to send someone to persuade her to surrender, suddenly saw the gate of the city on the opposite side open, and a man dressed as a civil servant came out personally leading the troops.

Xia Houlan suddenly felt like seeing a ghost, and said to herself in disbelief, "What kind of trouble is this?"

Xia Houlan didn't know what "conspiracy" the other party had, so he didn't let the dragoons behind him launch an attack just to be cautious.

Not long after, the defenders led by Jin Xuan formed an army formation outside the city.These soldiers are basically wearing cloth armor, and at most an unknown leather product is hung on the front and back, which seems very perfunctory

At this time, Xia Houlan's deputy Tieniu came to him and asked, "General, why don't I go out and shout?"

Xia Houlan thought for a while, then nodded and said: "Go and shout twice, be careful not to enter the range of the enemy's bow and arrow."

"I saved it!"

After Tieniu finished speaking, Da Ma came to the front of the two armies and shouted: "Listen up, my army of hundreds of thousands is in Jiangling City. If you don't surrender, you will be crushed by our army." Turn into powder!"

Tie Niu's words are indeed very intimidating.

Hundreds of thousands of troops, all the soldiers under Jin Xuan's command changed their expressions.

Jin Xuan has a fiery temper. When he heard Tieniu's words, he roared angrily: "Stop talking nonsense! If you have hundreds of thousands of troops, why are there only ten thousand now?!"

Then, without waiting for Tieniu to speak again, Jin Xuan actually gave the order to take the initiative to attack!

"Soldiers, don't listen to his nonsense, follow me to kill!"

Not only Tieniu, but also Xia Houlan and the soldiers of the Dragoon Army were dumbfounded by this scene.

Looking at the opponent's line that basically dissipated after running, a soldier was blank-eyed and muttered to himself:

"What is this trying to do?"

"Take a group of ragtag infantry to attack us???"

"Since when did my dragoon army have such a lack of platoon?"

It's like the boxing champion Tyson met an elementary school student who had just learned Taekwondo for two and a half years, and the other party was playing around at the moment, screaming, and wanted to come over and kick Tyson.

Faced with such a provocation, it is simply an insult, okay?

Tolerable or unbearable?

After Xia Houlan reacted, smoke was also coming from his nostrils. He raised the iron gun, pointed the tip of the gun forward, and said, "Brothers, let them see what is called a Shura field!!"
