Xiangyang City is in chaos, at least there is an undercurrent.

I don't know how many people are secretly active.

Cai Mao has always been discussing with his henchmen, and he has to summon his henchmen every day, and if he doesn't discuss matters for a day, he can't rest assured.

Cai Mao didn't even go to inspect the barracks.

In the past few days, in the evening, his generals have a lot of activities, and many families have feasted on them.

These families are asking them for news, and at the same time, someone is secretly courting them.

There were 160,000 troops in the city of Xiangyang.

Three of the captains were Zhang Yu's people, but these three captains did not move around, but stayed in the barracks and surrounded their subordinates.

At this time, it is very simple to encircle your subordinates, do not deduct food, and strive for more benefits for them.

Cai Mao was upset for three days in a row, and she didn't sleep much at night.

He couldn't sleep even if he wanted to.

On this day, Cai Mao summoned everyone over again.

"Cao Cao has agreed to send troops and will arrive in two days, what do you think?"

Cai Mao asked, and several people came out to suggest some plans for him.

Cai Mao arranged well, on the city wall, half of it was guarded by Cao Jun, and the other half was received by them, but the streets and city gates had to be done by their people.

After some arrangement, Cai Mao felt that it was very appropriate.

With this matter properly arranged, Cai Mao asked again: "Do you have anything else to add?" ”

Xu Chen came out and said: "Lord Wang, the enemy's siege of the city will inevitably lead to the instability of the army and the people in the city. ”

"Great goodness, this king will arrange it."

Xu Chen retreated, Cai Mao saw that everyone had nothing to add, so he asked everyone to go back, and he was tired and went back to rest by himself.

Xu Chen proposed to inspect the barracks and the streets, and Cai Mao also felt that it was very necessary at that time, but he didn't feel that it was too urgent.

Cai Mao returned to the backyard.

Two days later, Cao Cao's army arrived ahead of schedule.

Cao Ren came to support with an army of 100,000.

Cao Cao attaches great importance to this, and the 100,000 army is all elite soldiers.

After Cao Cao's army arrived, Zhang Yu immediately ordered to advance a hundred miles.

Directly to a hundred miles outside Xiangyang City.

However, Zhang Yu still did not attack.

The generals were a little anxious, they thought about fighting.

Although Zhang Yu did not attack Xiangyang, he kept moving.

After he brought back the money he had collected from Jingzhou, the cabinet began to get busy.

At the beginning, he immediately continued to recruit 200,000 soldiers and horses.

The 200,000 were recruited from the states, and when the order arrived, the counties were recruited within two days.

A county recruits some, and the task is completed quickly.

This time, the training was directly in the hands of the counties, where they would complete two months of recruit training, wait for the recruits to complete the training, and then assemble and train again for another month.

In the end, it was directly assigned to the armies for training.

The perfect system allows Zhang Yu to train a team of soldiers and horses in a short period of time.

Gossip is not mentioned.

Zhang Yu marched to a hundred miles, and then he summoned Guo Jia alone.

"Bonghyo, how is the plan completed? Whether you can break the city quickly is up to you. Zhang Yu called Guo Jia into the big tent and asked.

Guo Jia was in a good mood, sat down, and then said to Zhang Yu: "Lord, it's going well, now the people in the city are already panicking, and the people's hearts are available, now that Cao Jun has been stationed in, our second phase of the plan can begin." ”

"How is this Xu Chen?" Zhang Yu asked again.

"This person is very smart, he is a talent who is a strategist, and at the same time he is very calm and does not show any flaws, and in a few days, we will push him out and become the person Cai Mao trusts even more, even the most." Guo Jia said.

"It's been a few years, and that's it." Zhang Yu said with emotion.

At the beginning, he set up an intelligence agency by himself and planted a lot of nails in Jingzhou, but he didn't expect to be able to use it so soon.

A large number of nails are buried, and after several years of germination, finally someone reaches a very high height that can play a decisive role.

Cao Ren entered Xiangyang City, and Cai Mao personally met him at the city gate.

After some politeness, Cao Ren arranged the army, and the city had already arranged a military camp for them, and there was no problem with the supply of grain and grass.

This Cao Ren is the general of Cao Cao's side, and even Cao Cao's most trusted general.

After entering the city, Zhang Yu still did not attack.

For three days, Zhang Yu did not move at all.

Cai Mao convened the meeting again, but the difference was that this time Cao Ren also participated.

Cai Mao first made a polite look, and then introduced each other.

After that, let a few staff members briefly talk about the situation inside and outside the city.

In the end, Cai Mao said: "According to the news, Zhang Yu is still increasing his troops, I am afraid that he will attack after gathering a large army, this Xiangyang City is strong, Zhang Yu does not dare to attack with two or three hundred thousand people, I am afraid that he will attack after gathering a million troops." ”

Cao Ren laughed in his heart, how could he let Zhang Yu's million-strong army attack him.

But he didn't say anything, but came out and said: "Zhang Yu concluded that my lord would interfere, so in the north, on the Yellow River, began to arrange a large number of soldiers and horses, I am afraid that there are other plans." ”

Cai Mao nodded, and couldn't help but relax a lot.

Zhang Yu was not in a hurry to attack, and also allowed him to wait for Cao Jun's reinforcements, and at the same time asked him to make more arrangements.

To put it mildly, Zhang Yu is still a hundred miles away, and these days, Cai Mao keeps asking people to dig stones, chop wood, make bows and arrows, and strengthen the city defenses.

He has been preparing, if Zhang Yu delays for a few more days, he will be more prepared by then.

Time was very fast, and in the blink of an eye, Cao Ren had been in the city for ten days.

In the past ten days, he didn't do anything except defend on the city wall, that is, he went to the palace to discuss with Cai Mao and others.

The city is quite calm, Cai Mao is getting busier and busier, Xu Chen proposed, inspect the barracks, inspect the streets, he didn't do it.

All kinds of news were constantly reported to Cai Mao, and Cai Mao read them in detail one by one.

Zhang Yu never acted, which also made Cai Mao temporarily relieved.

Although Zhang Yu did not attack, he continued to increase his troops, and at this time Zhang Yu had gathered an army of 400,000, and other armies were being mobilized.

At the same time, in Yanzhou, Jizhou and other places, Zhang Yu was also gathering a large army, and then pressed towards Cao Cao.

Cao Cao mobilized his troops and horses to guard against Zhang Yu around Luoyang.

A bigger war seems to be brewing.

Recently, Cao Cao has not been very good, Zhang Yu and they have blocked the salt, they can't raise military expenses through salt, and the finances are very tight.

In Xiangyang City, Xu Cheng was busy for a few days, and finally was able to go to the teahouse to drink tea once, and the owner of the teahouse already recognized him and stepped forward to serve him personally.

At the checkout, Xu Chen also bought some tea and went back.

After going back, Xu Chen went directly into the study with the tea.

Take out a piece of paper from the tea leaves, this paper is not so easy to find in the gap between the packaging.

Spreading out the information, Xu Chen looked at it carefully.
