Cao Cao secretly despised what kind of traitors seeking glory, like Wei Yan and Huang Zhong, in Jingzhou are just unknown people, but after arriving in Bingzhou, he has become extremely powerful, especially Huang Zhong has the reputation of a marksman, although he is a veteran, but no one dares to underestimate him, he cannot be reused in Jingzhou, but he is so strong in Bingzhou, which can only show that Jingzhou has no ability to know people.

"Ben Hou's meaning, since the Jingzhou army wants to occupy Hedong and the land of Sanfu, General Cai might as well lead his troops to attack Kei Pass, and Ben Hou and Jiangdong Army will join forces to attack Huguan after breaking through Hanoi." Cao Cao said.

Cai Mao was dissatisfied: "Since it is a coalition army, it is naturally united in one place, how can it be easily separated." ”

Although Cai Mao is eager to get the land of Hedong and Sanfu, but he is not stupid, Jiguan is the barrier of Hedong, and it is an important checkpoint to enter Chang'an, the terrain is dangerous, although the defenders in Jiguan are only 6,000 people, if the Jingzhou army breaks through Jiguan, there will be a lot of losses, and there are not a few soldiers and horses in Chang'an, if Jiguan is in an emergency, there will definitely be reinforcements coming.

"Our army's thunderbolt can also reach three hundred steps in the range, the number of thunderbolts in the Jingzhou army is not a few, even if it is a strong state, there can not be too many thunderbolts in the Jiguan, as long as it can firmly suppress the Jizhou army on the thunderbolt car, why worry about not breaking through the Jiguan, Lu Bu was relying on the thunderbolt to break the Jiguan, is it difficult to change to the Jingzhou army?" Sun Ce said.

Cai Mao snorted coldly: "The Jingzhou army takes Jiguan. Jingzhou is not only at odds with Jiangdong, but also has a lot of grievances with Cao Cao, and he can't stand Cao Cao's ridicule on the side.

"If the Jingzhou army attacks Jiguan, Jiguan will inevitably be broken." Cao Cao smiled, but that smile was a little ill-intentioned in Cai Mao's eyes.

"Jiguan is dangerous, if the Jingzhou army can break through Jiguan in one fell swoop, Chang'an will inevitably fall into turmoil, and after our army occupies Hanoi, it will be difficult to reinforce Chang'an, so why worry about not being able to get Hedong and Sanfu."

Cai Mao's expression eased slightly, he naturally understood the truth in this, but the Jingzhou army attacked Jiguan alone made him muttered a little in his heart, and before leaving, Liu Biao solemnly explained.

Jingzhou is rich, but it is already the limit to be able to mobilize 60,000 troops.

In Cai Mao's plan, this war is best to consume the strength of the Jiangdong Army to the greatest extent, Cao Cao is more forbearing, Jiangdong has directly attacked Jingzhou over the years, Jiangxia Taishou Huang Zu died in the hands of the Jiangdong Army, for the Jiangdong Army, the Jingzhou Army is the most hated.

After returning to the army, Cai Mao set his eyes on Kuai Yue, "Lord Kuai, do you have a chance of winning this time in attacking Jiguan?" ”

Kuai Yue nodded slightly and said: "Although the Kei Pass is dangerous, there are 200 thunderbolt cars and 200 bed crossbows in our army, even if there are thunderbolt cars and bed crossbows in the Kei Pass, as long as the defenders are suppressed with thunderbolts and bed crossbows after desperately approaching the Kei Pass, our army will definitely be able to break through the Ji Pass." Speaking of this, Kuai Yue's tone was also a little excited, as a strategist, how could he not know the importance of the land of Sanfu.

Once there was a land of three auxiliaries, Jingzhou got rid of the clamps from Cao Cao and Sun Ce, and thus achieved greater development.

"With the words of Lord Kuai, he ordered Wen to be the vanguard of the army and lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to go first." Cai Mao said.

Kuai Yue hurriedly persuaded: "General Cai, there are two fierce generals in the Jingzhou army this time, if they are used properly, it will be much easier to enter Hanoi." ”

"Fierce general?" Cai Mao didn't react for a while.

"Could it be that General Cai forgot Liu Xuande's second brother Guan Yu and third brother Zhang Fei, it is said that these two people are both brave and brave, and the state army has occupied Hanoi for a long time, so they will not retreat easily, as expected, there will definitely be a state army in Hanoi." Kuai Yue said in a low voice.

Cai Mao's eyes lit up, he had always looked down on Liu Bei, otherwise he would not have secretly designed to kill Liu Bei, but after Liu Bei found out, he was also a lot more wary of the Cai family.

This time, Liu was ordered by the emperor to come, led the headquarters of 3,000 soldiers and horses, and left Jian Yong and Sun Qian in Xinye, these 3,000 soldiers can be said to be Liu Bei's last hole card.

"Okay, order Liu Bei to be the vanguard of the army, order all the soldiers and horses of the headquarters, and after the preparations are ready, you don't need to report to the general, just go directly to Hanoi." Cai Mao readily agreed.

The reason why Kuai Yue did this is also because of a series of actions after Liu Bei entered Jingzhou, which made Kuai Yue feel uneasy, from Liu Bei's body, he felt an unyielding fighting spirit, and even Mr. Shuijing's high apprentice Zhuge Liang was willing to join Liu Bei's army, which shows that Liu Bei is not a simple character.

It must be known that when Lu Bu went to Shuijing Villa in Xiangyang, he praised Zhuge Liang a lot.

And Liu Bei secretly contacted Liu Qi, obviously had the idea of supporting Liu Qi to become the prince, what kind of virtue Liu Qi is, Kuai Yue couldn't understand it anymore, he would rather choose Liu Cong to become the prince than let Liu Qi inherit the unification in the future, it can be said that the family in Jingzhou has no good impression of Liu Qi.

After Liu Bei received the order from Cai Mao, he asked in a low voice: "Kong Ming, General Cai ordered General Ben to be the vanguard of the army, and led his troops and horses to Hanoi to prepare for the army's attack on Keiguan. ”

Zhuge Liang smiled slightly: "I'm afraid this is Cai Mao's deliberate, when the lord was in Jingzhou, he secretly contacted the eldest prince, and he would definitely not be able to hide the eyes of the Cai family, and the Cai family supported the little prince Liu Cong to become the prince, so that he would inevitably be afraid of the lord and let the lord be the vanguard of the army, in fact, it was to weaken the strength of the lord, most of the people in Hanoi moved to Hedong, but the Bingzhou army would not give up Hanoi so simply, Hanoi was too guarded by Xu Huang, and he was also a famous general in Bingzhou, and he was quite capable of leading the troops to fight. ”

"What should I do with Kong Ming's meaning?" Liu Bei's tone was a little eager, these three thousand troops were the foundation of his foothold in Jingzhou, and he also promised Zhuge Liang that if he had the opportunity, he would seize the military power of Jingzhou, but all this was based on his own strength.

"The lord agreed, and it just happened to let the Jingzhou army and the armies of other princes see the strength of the lord's army." Zhuge Liang said slowly, saying that it was for the princes to see, why didn't he have the idea of letting the Bingzhou army take a good look, at this time, it was also the time for Liu Bei to establish his prestige in the world.

The next day, after Liu Bei ordered his troops and horses, he came towards Wen County.

Zhuge Liang received the news from the front, and he had some doubts in his heart, it is said that the army in Hanoi will not retreat so easily, and the best opportunity to cause losses to his own side is to attack halfway, but the scouts did not find any trace of the Bingzhou army.

It's the end of the month, and if you have a monthly pass, remember to support it!
