"Liu Jingsheng, this old man, is not at peace even if he dies!"

At this time, the only one who was angry was Cao Cao, who occupied Changsha and Nanjun. The reason for all this is in the Battle of Yicheng, a battle that took a total of two days from the beginning to the end, but Cao Cao suffered heavy losses. There is no other reason, he has just made preparations here, and the strategists sent to Yicheng Liu Qi to discuss and form an alliance are already on the way, and he was persuaded to return by the messenger who rushed from Yicheng halfway, saying that Liu Cong had sent troops to fight Liu Qi.

This side had just mobilized men and horses to prepare to support Liu Qi, but he had just walked less than ten miles out of the city gate, and was persuaded to retreat by the rout...... Liu Pan, who was guarding the north gate, surrendered without a fight, opened the city gate to lead the enemy into the city, and Yicheng had fallen.

Do you say that people are angry?

As the war continued, there were fewer and fewer people available under Cao Cao's hands, and this time Cao Hong was folded in Yicheng, and Cao Cao didn't want to fight with Yanbei.

What else can be fought in this battle? There are basically no more princes in the world who can become a climate, and he and Liu Bei are left to fight and retreat back to back in Yi and Jing Prefectures, and the one who can form an alliance is more stupid than the other, what kind of stuff are they!

Cao Cao accepted the hundreds of defeated troops who fled back from the direction of Yicheng, and it didn't take long to figure out the reason for this defeat - it was Liu Biao, who died of illness, who cheated himself.

It's easy to figure out, Liu Pan is not someone who can command, as the only general of the Liu family in Jingzhou except for Wen Ping, in the past he only obeyed Liu Biao's orders, and now as soon as Liu Biao died, he surrendered to Liu Cong, and it was in this form of rebellion, if this was from Liu Cong's strategy, Cao Cao didn't believe it.

At this point, Cao Cao and Yanbei once again agreed that he also thought that Liu Biao's son was as stupid as a pig.

At this time, it is too late to figure it out or not, although Yicheng no longer needs to be rescued, Cao Cao also plans to return the soldiers and horses back to the camp, and directly arrange defenses in the three counties of Jiangyang, Zhijiang and Jiangling. There are mountains and rivers between Jiangling and the Huarong of Zhang Liaotun's soldiers, and it is very easy to defend when occupying a favorable location; Dangyang guarded the main road for the enemy army in the north to move south, and the strict garrison could ensure that the west of Nanjun was safe. As for Zhijiang, in Cao Cao's heart, it belonged to the rear camp, and then it could be opened up to Wuling County in the southwest.

Changsha can't hold it.

With Zhang Liao's majority stationed in Huarong, the connection between Cao Cao and Changsha in Nanjun had been cut off, but Cao Cao had planned to abandon Changsha before the battle began, and the order left to Xun Yu and others guarding Changsha was also to advance to Lingling County in the south and connect with Wuling County if the road was intercepted by Zhang Liao.

Originally, Cao Cao's plan was to rely on Liu Bei and his alliance - the only prince in the world who could make Cao Cao look at him was Liu Bei, an old revolution, not to mention that he didn't think that Liu Bei, who was used to being a mercenary, would disagree with him.

The significance of Zhuge Liang by Liu Bei's side, Cao Cao did not know for the time being.

But now Liu Bei was recklessly attacked by the Yan family and the Shi family in Yizhou, and he was beaten with a big bag from head to tail, and Cao Cao also gave up the idea of forming an alliance with him...... This is also a fart alliance, Liu Bei can't tell when he will surrender!

In the final analysis, it was this time that Liu Biao still cheated him hard once after his death, which made Cao Cao feel palpitations. So where else can Cao Cao go? It was precisely Liu Bei's attack that reminded Cao Cao that there is still such a number one person as Shixie in this world; There is still such a piece of land in Jiaozhou in this world!

The Sun family is too busy to take care of themselves, Jingzhou has already collapsed, and there is no war in the eastern part of Jiaozhou, which means that Shixie's defense in the eastern part of Jiaozhou will not have a large army, and the battle-hardened Cao army will attack Jiaozhou after years of peace?

Although Jiaozhou is also a state, although the population is small and remote, it does not mean that Jiaozhou has never experienced war, in fact, Jiaozhou has been in chaos before Shixie's unification of the state, and later faced the threat of Liu Biao, more honestly, Cao Cao's current power is really not as good as Shixie.

But for Cao Cao, the difficulty of capturing Jiaozhou was by no means more difficult than resisting the attack of the Yan army's Zhang Jaw, Gao Lan, and Zhang Liao.

On the contrary, it's much simpler!

Of course, Cao Cao did not give up Jingzhou, even if he was pitted by Liu Biao, if he did not reach the end of the mountains and rivers, Cao Cao would not be far away to lead most of the migration to Jiaozhou. Don't say how much accidents will happen all the way from Jingzhou to Jiaozhou, in this world, Liu Biao from Xiangyang to Yicheng District Baili because of an accident attacked by a cavalry team of hundreds of people, which directly led to his subsequent death, blind migration accidents are too many and the risk is too great.

Let alone...... Cao Cao needed to make a lot of preparations before he could move to Jiaozhou completely.

It is not difficult to imagine how much Cao Cao didn't want to fight with Yanbei anymore if he made such a decision. If the rest of the princes had been replaced, Cao Cao might have asked for surrender a long time ago, generously found a county of land in Jingzhou, and asked the court for an official position such as a taishou. But when he was facing Yanbei, to be honest, Cao Cao didn't think about surrendering or negotiating peace at all.

Needless to say, he understands Yanbei like he understands the art of war, that horse bandit will never give him the slightest respite, even if he is allowed to surrender, the condition must be to let him live in Handan City with his wife and children, just where he can reach out and reach King Zhao.

The hand can not be touched, but the knife must be able to cut, otherwise King Zhao will be relieved. There are tens of millions of people in the world, and among them, Cao Cao is the one who does not reassure Yanbei the most.

There is a chain of suspicion between people, Yanbei showed a little suspicion, Cao Cao showed a little worry, Yanbei's jealousy increased, and Cao Cao's worry increased...... It's easy to break all trust.

There is probably no one in the world who can jump out of this truth.

Approaching October, Cao Cao received a letter from Xun Yu, most of Cao's army had entered Lingling, and the rest were in the mountains and rivers in the east of Wuling County, Changsha Yiyang, and the soldiers and horses in the south of Zhang Liao had several battles, and the troops were Cheng Lian and others, and the two sides had each other's casualties, so they also dismissed each other's troops and garrisoned each other. Cheng Lian had the intention to attack, but he had no choice but to attack the mountains for a long time, and Cao's army did not have the confidence to invade northward, so this battle could not be fought.

Some of Cao Cao's soldiers and horses also entered Wuling southward, but the advance soldiers and horses were only to stabilize the counties in the county and infiltrate in the direction of Jiaozhou, and they did not have much will to fight. Zhang Liao's headquarters didn't know what they were doing, and they were not in a hurry to attack him for several months. But Zhang Liao did not attack, some people were willing to attack, Zhang Jaw did not know which medicine he had taken wrong, and led the army to attack Zhijiang three times in a month, which was regarded as a disheartened garrison of Jiangling south of Yicheng to threaten Zhijiang.

The fierce momentum sent chills down Cao Cao's spine, as if it reminded him of the fear of being defeated by Zhang Liao in Yanzhou.

Zhang Jaw's courage was not inferior to Zhang Liao at that time.
