Cao Cao sighed secretly in his heart, about the question of the water master, through the secret agent placed next to Cai Mao, in fact, Cao Cao also understood a thing or two, but he just had a little luck in his heart, but unfortunately, in the end, the luck still did not come true.

However, speaking of external forces, thinking of what Cai Mao was asked to do when the army arrived, Cao Cao asked: "Has anyone in Jingzhou replied to you now?" ”

Cai Mao shook his head at first, but then said with a hint of flattery: "Although not, but now that Your Majesty has defeated the Northern Expeditionary Army led by Zhuge Liang, the hearts of the people in Jingzhou will inevitably fluctuate, according to the last general, at the latest, in the next few days, someone will definitely reply to the last general!" ”

Seeing that Cai Mao was so confident, Cao Cao didn't say anything more, but encouraged: "It's so good, if that's the case, after pacifying Jingzhou, Aiqing should make a contribution!" ”

A flash of joy flashed on Cai Mao's face, and then after finding that Cao Cao didn't pay attention to him anymore, he asked for his life and retreated very wisely.

The cool breeze blows, the lotus flowers in the pond sway with the wind, very enchanting, when Cao Cao seems to be caught in this beautiful scenery, Guo Jia came to the backyard and said with a smile: "It's really beautiful, no wonder Your Majesty is stunned!" ”

Cao Cao saw that it was Guo Jia, and said with a smile: "It's Fengxiao, although the lotus beauty is good, but it is too weak, a trace of external force is enough to destroy them, what I see is not the beauty of the lotus flower, but the blue wave pond." ”

Guo Jia glanced at the rippling pond blown by the breeze, and then looked at Cao Cao's expression, and asked, "Your Majesty, what's the trouble?" ”

Cao Cao couldn't help but sigh and said, "There was information about the Three Southern Kingdoms just now!" These three countries are secretly communicating with each other. I want to be bad for me! ”

Guo Jia frowned and thought, "Presumably, Your Majesty is worried about Wu Guo, right?" ”

Cao Cao nodded: "That's true." When the Great Wei Water Division was not yet completed, I was not willing to meet with the soldiers of the Wu State! ”

Guo Jia looked understanding. Nodding and said: "My Great Wei Sea Territory is huge, but there is no water division, if the direction of Wu State's attack is clear, it is fine, otherwise, my Great Wei will go north to Youzhou, and it will be difficult to be careful in Xuzhou, it can be said that as soon as the war starts, it will fall into disadvantage." ”

But then, Guo Jia laughed: "Your Majesty, since this is the case." Our army might as well focus on only one target, and that is Jing Han! This time the alliance of the three kingdoms seems to be the same as the last time, as long as the puppet Han in Jingzhou is eliminated, the so-called alliance will be self-defeating! ”

Cao Cao said with a smile: "Fengxiao and I are really heroes, yes, as long as the Jingzhou puppet who provoked this alliance is eliminated, then the so-called alliance will definitely be self-defeating!" ”

Guo Jia pondered for a moment and analyzed: "Although the puppet Han in Jingzhou is second only to our dynasty in wealth, not to mention that it has just been defeated. The soldiers have no heart to fight, and when it comes to the interior, Liu Biao suddenly fell ill, and Liu Qi hurriedly took the position. The rumors of his improper position have not been eliminated, coupled with the defeat of the Northern Expeditionary Army led by Zhuge Liang, the officials in Jingzhou will inevitably fluctuate. Coupled with General Cai's letters, as long as an external force intervenes at this time. It is very likely that the puppet will collapse here, after the puppet Han is destroyed. It is equivalent to cutting off the connection between the remaining two countries, and at that time, both Wu and Xichuan will be surrounded by our Great Wei, this plan is feasible! ”

Cao Cao nodded and pondered: "Although this is the case, this battle is not easy!" Not to mention Shouchun and Xuzhou, in the next few days, our army may have to face strong enemies in Guanzhong, Xiliang and even the north at the same time! Preparations must begin immediately, in the hope that they can launch an attack in the shortest possible time and disrupt their deployment! ”

Guo Jia nodded when he heard this, and then seemed to think of something, and smiled at Cao Cao: "Your Majesty, it is not advisable for the Wu side, but it may not be a foregone conclusion for the Xichuan side, Liu Zhang is weak by nature, and he can't make up his mind, this time he actually agreed to join the alliance, according to the minister's opinion, it must be the reason why the officials of the main battle in his country against our Great Wei are present, if our army sends an envoy and the officials who advocate self-protection are present, then Liu Zhang will inevitably hesitate again, even if he can't be let out of the alliance in the end, but it is enough to delay the time for Xichuan to send troops!" ”

Cao Cao's eyes lit up, and he nodded in agreement: "Feng Xiao's words are very true, but this candidate is a problem. ”

Guo Jia bowed his hand and asked: "Your Majesty, the noble god is fast, and the minister will go there in person!" ”

Hearing Guo Jia's request for his life, Cao Cao was a little hesitant at first, but he quickly made up his mind, as Guo Jia said, the soldiers are fast, and only Guo Jia is the most suitable person at this moment!

Cao Cao, who had made up his mind, looked at Guo Jia and said: "In this case, everything is entrusted to Fengxiao!" ”

"Your Majesty, rest assured!" Guo Jia took a step back and arched his hand, and then asked: "Your Majesty, in this case, the minister will set off for Xichuan tomorrow!" ”

Cao Cao nodded and said, "I will send a team of personal soldiers to escort you!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Just when Cao Cao of Nanyang made up his mind and took action, Shouchun on the other side, the defenders of the Wei army, who were sleeping with a blade at the head of the city, were suddenly awakened by a burst of murderous war drums.

A lieutenant came to his senses and hurriedly pulled his throat and said, "Prepare for battle!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the golden bell rang loudly, and then the figures on the city wall were longing, and the Wei soldiers guarding the city wall were orderly deployed on the city wall.

After a while, Zhang Liao and Cao Pi, who were the main generals, came to the city wall, looking at the 80,000 Wu troops under the city, Zhang Liao's expression was a little solemn.

Shouchun's defenders originally had 100,000, but with Zhou Yu leading an army of 20,000 to attack Xuzhou, Zhang Liao had to send 30,000 to support Xuzhou, resulting in Shouchun at this time only 70,000 troops, fortunately, with the city wall of Shouchun, Zhang Liao was still under the attack of 80,000 Wu troops, and held on for two months.

Within two months, the Wu army attacked I don't know how many times, but none of them broke through Shouchun, so Zhang Liao's solemnity was not because of the attack of the Wu army, but because of the momentum of the Wu army!

Not only Zhang Liao found that the momentum of the Wu army was different, but even Cao Pi also discovered this, if the Wu army a few days ago was muddy and gloomy, today's Wu army can be said to be as morale as a rainbow.

Cao Pi's eyes glanced at Wu Jun, then his eyes froze, and he whispered to Zhang Liao beside him: "General Zhang, where do you look, according to the last general, it is very likely that it is the reason why Wu Jun's momentum has become different!" (To be continued......)
