Li Jing had 180,000 soldiers and horses, and after luring and destroying Cao Bin's 50,000 men, he had completely opened the way south to Yecheng, and it was impossible for Cao Cao and his think tank not to smell the crisis facing Yecheng.
It is about 600 miles from Nanpi to Yecheng, and about 500 miles from Qiaojun to Yecheng, and the distance between the two is almost equal when Li Jing marches in advance.
Cao Cao wanted to return to the division to rescue Yecheng is not without time, but Zhuge Liang, Xue Rengui, Han Shizhong led 100,000 horses in Song County, a hundred miles away, as long as Cao Cao dares to retreat, Zhuge Liang can pursue Yecheng from the south to the north, and Li Jing to Cao Cao personally led the main army to implement a north-south siege.
At that time, Wei will not only lose the national capital, it is likely that even Cao Cao will be trapped in the siege and captured, if that is the real disaster for Cao Wei.
Of course, Cao Cao could also divide his troops into two routes, leaving a group of soldiers and horses to continue to hold on to Qian County to block the pursuit of Zhuge Liang's 100,000 Han army, and personally led some of his men and horses to retreat towards Yecheng lightly, and closed the door to resist Li Jing's attack.
If Cao Cao can still draw enough reinforcements, it is a good strategy to divide the troops into two ways, but unfortunately Cao Cao's national strength has been exhausted, and the soldiers and horses that can be mobilized are very small, only about 40,000 troops in the county can be mobilized, and it is a county soldier with weak combat effectiveness, which is not enough to affect the battle situation at all.
If Cao Cao does this, the result is likely to be that Yecheng was captured by Li Jing, and Qianjun was captured by Zhuge Liang.
The current situation is not only a threat to Cao Cao, but also the two corps of Li Jing and Zhuge Liang, one south and one north, but also the Yue Fei corps sitting in Chenliu and Xuchang.
With 150,000 or 60,000 soldiers and horses, he could not only attack Cao Ren's corps stationed in Yan County to the north, meet Li Jing and Zhuge Liang, gather nearly 500,000 troops to attack in three ways, and annihilate the main force of Wei in one fell swoop, or divide troops from Chen Liu to the east to intercept Cao Cao's northern return to Yecheng, creating conditions for Li Jing to take Yecheng.
"It's over, nearly 500,000 people of the Three Route Han Army are gathered in the territory of thousands of miles north and south of the Yellow River, Yecheng is finished, and we are checkmated" Cao Cao endured his headache and got up, stared at the map on the wall, and used a black brush to mark the three corps of Li Jing, Zhuge Liang, and Yue Fei respectively, and Yecheng was like a "handsome" chess trapped in the Nine Palaces, already desperate and in a catastrophe.
"Even if Yecheng is lost, you must not give up Qiaojun, and abandoning Qiaojun can only be gained by the Han army," Fan Zeng trembled the gray beard under his chin and said in a slightly trembling voice.
If you can't return to the division from Qiaojun to rescue Yecheng, then there is only one possibility to hold Yecheng, Li Ji and Li Mu, the two commanders of the Tang army, can be very kind and lead the army to follow the pace of the Han army to the south.
As long as the Tang army bites Li Jing to the death, and the Han army suffers from the enemy, Li Jing will not be able to attack Yecheng with all his strength.
Guo Jia coughed and said: "But Jia thinks that Li Ji or Li Mu may not have such a strategic vision, seeing Li Jing suddenly going south, the two of them will lead their troops to Qingzhou nine times out of ten, and jointly seize the territory with Li Shimin." ” "In this way, there is a chance that Yecheng will fall" Cheng Yu also stroked his gray beard, his face full of sadness, "Please Your Majesty send an order to move the capital to Taiyuan, Bingzhou."
In the south of the state, there is Huguan Yifu when the pass is not opened, and there is Taihang in the east, and with 50,000 or 60,000 horses, Li Jing's attack can be blocked. ” Cao Cao said that the emperor system has been established for less than two years, the court is far from reaching the point of perfection, and the capital of Yecheng is far from being comparable to Jinling.
Most of Cao Wei's talents are guarding the Quartet, or fighting with the army, and only the prince Cao Ang is in Yecheng, assisted by Liu Fu, Ren Jun, Man Chong, Zhu Ling, Lu Zhao and other second- and third-rate talents.
Moreover, the palace of Yecheng has just begun to be built, even if it is lost, it will not have a major impact on the country like Jinling, as long as Cao Cao transfers all his family members and ministers out, Yecheng will be lost if it is lost, which is much better than being served in a pot.
"Eight hundred miles to rush to Yecheng, inform the prince Cao Ang to give up Yecheng immediately and transfer to the direction of Taiyuan."
Although Cao Cao had a headache, it did not affect his intelligence, and he immediately gave the order to abandon Yecheng.
The war has been fought everywhere, you have me, I have you, either you die or I live, if you are not careful, you will lose everything, and the situation is no longer under Cao Cao's control.
At this time of life and death, we must know how to make trade-offs, otherwise we can only withdraw from the stage of hegemony.
Fan Zeng suggested again: "The old minister is willing to catch up with Kuai Liang and Xu Chu quickly, personally go to Qingzhou to pay homage to Li Shimin, state the benefits and disadvantages, let him understand the truth of the cold lips and teeth, and divide a group of soldiers and horses from Bohai County to rescue Yecheng." ” In this situation, it can be said that the life and death of Wei State has been tied to Li Tang, and it is no longer enough to let Kuai Liang serve as the envoy, and Fan Zeng, the prime minister of Wei State, will personally go out to show his respect for Li Shimin, and Cao Cao will naturally agree.
Guo Jia also suggested: "After Xiahou Yuan gave a group of soldiers and horses to Le Yi and Fan Li, there were only about 40,000 soldiers and horses in the plain city.
Since His Majesty has made the decision to move the capital, he will revise the book to inform Xiahou Yuan not to fight Li Jing head-on, and after uniting with Jing Bu's team, follow behind to fight guerrillas."
Guo Jia stretched out a finger as he spoke: "Now that the Han army is strong, our army is like a finger after it is scattered and separated, and it is easy to be easily broken.
Now all we need to do is try to bring our fingers together and clench them into a fist. ” Cao Cao sighed: "Li Jing is powerful, he completely annihilated Yuan Shao's 150,000 army in Qingzhou, crossed the sea to capture Li Yuan, went north to resist the Xiongnu, Tang Army and other forces, and carried 300,000 Tang troops in Hebei for several years, making it difficult for Li to cross the Lei Chi step.
With the 40,000 soldiers and horses in the hands of Miaocai, they can only be given away for nothing, so let's repair the book according to the words of filial piety."
Fan Zeng took more than ten horsemen and left Qiaojun to chase Kuai Liang and Xu Chu, while Guo Jia repaired the book to Xiahou Yuan and Yingbu, and ordered the two to join forces and follow Li Jing's soldiers and horses to harass them.
At the same time, he ordered Cao Ang of Yecheng to quickly abandon the national capital and retreat to Bingzhou, and it was too late when Li Jing's army approached the city.
For a while, the carrier pigeon spread its wings in the sky over Qiaojun, the sound of hooves was everywhere, the air suddenly froze, and hundreds of thousands of Cao troops were like facing a great enemy.
Just when Cao Cao was sad and happy, one heaven and one hell, Li Jingzheng led an army of more than 100,000 people to leave Yecheng and march towards Yecheng at a speed of more than 100 miles a day.
Li Jing straddled his horse and raised his whip, urging the army to march in high spirits; Hua Mulan is dressed in a red robe, heroic, and after giving birth to two sons, her charm is even better than before.
While riding a horse and following her husband, she reminded: "Marshal, our army's goal is so big, I'm afraid that Cao Ang will give up Yecheng and retreat to the state." ” Li Jing laughed on the horse and said: "General Hua is in charge of rest assured, if there is no accident, the 30,000 cavalry led by Ma Mengqi and Gao Aocao is estimated to be outside the gate of Ye City at this moment."
I asked him to block the four gates of Yecheng, and he didn't have to attack the city and couldn't let go of a person, unless Cao Ang foresaw the danger in advance and had withdrawn from Yecheng, it would be difficult to fly."
Chen Deng next to him sighed: "The marshal is really like a god, there is no need to equip strategists at all, I am just running errands and doing miscellaneous work by the marshal's side."
"Wronged, the grass people are wronged" At this moment, there was a commotion in front of him, some people knelt on the side of the road and shouted grievances, Li Jing was the first time he met someone intercepting the army and shouting grievances, isn't this something that should be dealt with by local officials, not to mention that this is the territory of Wei State, who actually stopped the army of the Han Dynasty to complain "Let's go, let's see" Li Jing was curious, and personally brought Hua Mulan and Chen Dengce to watch.
I saw a man about thirty years old and honest-looking kneeling next to the post road, who was loudly complaining: "Wronged, the villain is wronged, please ask the marshal to make the decision for the villain."
Li Jing turned over and dismounted, and ordered: "Why don't you go to the local magistrate's office to complain, but intercept the army to complain and say that if this commander can make decisions for you, he will administer justice for you."
The man choked up and said, "The villain Wang Bao, a native of Julu County, has been in business since ten years ago and has earned a lot of money. married his wife Niu Rong, pampered him in every way, entrusted all the financial power of the family to him, and obeyed his words.
Unexpectedly, this slut femme fatale not only fornicated with Song Menqing next door, did that kind of reluctance, but also occupied all my family business and drove me out of the door.
The most poisonous woman in the world, but not as good as this woman, I once heard that there are artists in Jiangdong who wrote the drama of Pan Jinlian and Ximen Qing, and this woman's evil deeds are especially better than Pan Jinlian 100 times and 1000 times.
He also used his money and body to buy the county order, and drove me out of the city, so that I was penniless, and asked the marshal to make decisions for the grass people."
Rao is Li Jingrong for many years, and after hearing this, he couldn't help but be furious: "There is such a shameless woman in the world, Chen Yuanlong, this matter is handed over to you to deal with, if what you say is true, give me justice and let these villains understand, good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and the way of heaven is good for reincarnation, if you don't believe it, look up, who will be spared by the sky" Hua Mulan was also indignant: "This woman's viciousness is better than that of a snake and scorpion, it really disgraces a woman" Chen Deng stroked his beard and said with a smile: "This woman's name is cheap, and the cattle and livestock are also, and the meaning of the Rong character is known when it is opened."
This woman is handed over to me to deal with, and I promise to give you justice."
The county seat of Guangzong was thirty miles ahead, and Li Jing continued to lead an army of more than 100,000 to the south, and gave Chen Deng 5,000 soldiers and horses to enter the county seat of Guangzong to seek justice for Wang Bao. t1706231537:
