Xuchang.
Cao Cao played with the imperial seal in his hand, and there were no longer officials like Xun Yu and Cheng Yu who were outspoken in admonishing him.
"Gu, I plan to annex Chang'an, take advantage of Da'er being deep in Liangzhou, take Hanzhong directly, and humiliate me with snow!"
The Battle of Hanzhong has always been a pain in Cao Cao's heart. After all, it was the first time in his life that he lost to Liu Bei.
It's very possible that there will never be a chance to get back on track.
Most of Liu Bei's army was going to be used to pacify Liangzhou, which gave him hope of invading Hanzhong again.
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible."
Xun You took the initiative to speak. As Cao Cao's mastermind, he would not pretend to be dead like Jia Xu.
"Liu Bei now occupies Yizhou, Jiaozhou, Liangzhou, and half of Jingzhou. It has become a climate!"
"The roads in Hanzhong are difficult to navigate and the climate is unstable, which can easily make our army trapped."
"Even if we are lucky enough to cross mountains and ridges, Liu Bei can wait for work while our army will be exhausted to face the enemy."
Xun You informed Cao Cao of all the pros and cons of attacking Hanzhong.
As a traitor of a generation, he naturally knew that attacking Hanzhong was not the best choice.
However, getting back the ground with Liu Bei is what Cao Cao wants!
How can I lose to Liu Daer!
With this obsession, Cao Cao wanted to raise troops in Hanzhong.
Jia Xu was silent. He had always been passive. As long as Cao Cao didn't take the initiative to speak, Jia Xu would never talk too much.
"Your Majesty, I think our army should not attack Hanzhong, but target this place!"
Where Sima Yi was pointing was Jiangling in Jingzhou!
"Now Xiangfan is still in the hands of King Wei, and Liu Bei's troops in Jingzhou are controlled by Zhao Yun."
"It's a pity that this person has insight and has made it impossible for us to do anything!"
"It would be much easier if Guan Yunchang was guarding this place!"
Sima Yi's words surprised Cao Cao.
"Zhongda, Yun Chang is far more talented than Zhao Yun!"
"Gu Ye admits that Zhao Yun is also a rare talent!"
"But in Gu Yan's eyes, Yun Chang is always the strongest general in the world today!"
Regarding Cao Cao's statement, Sima Yi nodded and agreed.
"King Wei, when marching and fighting, when arranging troops, Zhao Zilong is far inferior to Guan Yunchang!"
"However, Zhao Yun was humble and able to unite his allies, while Guan Yu was arrogant and arrogant, and was eventually harmed by villains."
Although Cao Cao was displeased after hearing Sima Yi's words, he had to admit the flaws in Guan Yu's character.
I think back when I entered Cao Ying as a surrendered general, it was because I could tell anyone a few tricks, and I didn't like anyone at all.
"So, wouldn't it be a bad idea to attack Jingzhou?"
"Zhongda, are you trying to fool me?"
As soon as Cao Cao said this, Xu Chu had already drawn his sword and looked at Sima Yi.
"Wei Chen doesn't dare!"
Sima Yi quickly knelt down, and Cao Pi on the side was also a little nervous.
Now Sima Yi is his loyal minister, so he must not make any mistakes!
"Gu, it's just a joke. Why is Zhongda so afraid of death? Hahahaha!"
Cao Cao laughed loudly. Only Sima Yi understood that King Wei must have had murderous intentions just now!
Thanks to Liu Mang and Zhuge Liang, the pair of masters and disciples, otherwise how could the King of Wei keep me here until now?
Sima Yi calmed down and forced himself to calm down again.
"Whether it's Chengdu or Liangzhou, it's not far from Hanzhong."
"Even if our army is stationed in Chang'an and attacks Hanzhong in separate routes, Liu Bei will still notice it!"
"By then Liu Bei would rather abandon Liangzhou than bury our army in Hanzhong. Our army will be in danger of being attacked from head to tail!"
Cao Cao frowned. Today's Liangzhou can be said to be a desolate place, which cannot be compared with Hanzhong at all.
The most Liu Bei can do is give up his hard work in Liangzhou and return directly to help Hanzhong. When the time comes, he will close the door and beat the dog, and Cao Jun will be in misery.
"Then what's the reason for attacking Jingzhou?"
Cao Cao glanced at Sima Yi and waited patiently for the other party's answer.
"King Wei, I and the Crown Prince have discussed a Zhao Yun encirclement net!"
"This plan will definitely make Jingzhou fall into the hands of King Wei and cause Liu Mang to lose his troops and generals!"
A hint of gloom flashed in Sima Yi's eyes. In order to avenge today, he has been planning for a long time!
"No matter Chengdu, Jiaozhou, Liangzhou or Hanzhong are far away from Jingzhou, there is no time to rescue Zhao Yun and Pang Tong!"
"For one thing, Zhao Yun is alone and helpless!"
Before Sima Yi finished speaking, he heard Xun You's voice.
"Shangyong Liu Feng must be on guard against him."
Xun You didn't like Sima Yi, he was just fulfilling his duty as the mastermind.
"Don't worry, Gongda! Liu Feng and Mengda cannot be trusted now!"
"Otherwise, as Liu Bei's adopted son, how could he be driven to such a remote place instead of being in Chengdu?"
"Liu Feng and Zhao Yun are neither relatives nor friends. Even if Guan Yu doesn't come to support, let alone Zhao Zilong?"
Sima Yi's conclusion made everyone nod slightly. If Shangyong didn't come to support, then Jiangling would have lost its only reinforcement!
"Fengchu Pang Tong has been targeted by my Bronze Bird assassin for a long time!"
"In order to kill this person, I will send Han Long to Jingzhou!"
"With the guidance of the Bronze Bird, Han Long will definitely be able to kill him with one blow!"
When the officials heard this, they all secretly cursed Sima Yi as an old silver coin.
Han Long, that was the ruthless man who assassinated the leaders of Xianbei and Wuwan many times!
Wouldn't it be easy to kill Pang Tong?
"Losing Pang Tong is like breaking Zhao Yun's arms!"
"This is the second reason why Zhao Yun was executed!"
Sima Yi was as proud as if the city of Jiangling had been captured, Pang Tong was assassinated, and Zhao Yun and others' heads were missing!
"When Jiangling reveals a flaw, Sun Quan will not miss the opportunity, and Zhao Yun can encircle it!"
"The King of Wei and Sun Quan can divide Jingzhou equally without any worries!"
"Liu Bei can only march eastward to Chang'an. We only need to garrison the Sanfu area to ensure that nothing goes wrong!"
Sima Yi's plan was revealed, and Cao Cao couldn't help but praise him!
This person is a great talent!
Zhuge Kongming’s opponent must be this person!
Sima Yi has made preparations. The person leading the army this time is none other than Cao Pi!
As long as he can make contributions to Cao Pi, he will surely enter the core power circle.
By then, even the Cao clan will surrender at his feet!
"Zhongda's words deeply touched Gu's heart."
"In this battle, Cao Ren will be in command, Yuan Rang will be the deputy general, and Cao Zhen and Cao Xiu will go to assist him."
"Zhongda, as a military advisor, go and assist Zixiao!"
"Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Le Jin, Yu Jin and others all came out, and I vowed to capture Zhao Yun!"
Cao Cao waved his hand, this was his all-star lineup.
Especially Zhang Liao, who is so powerful in Xiaoyaojin!
With this person in charge, even Zhao Yun and Gan Ning can resist.
"In-laws, how about you go too?"
Cao Cao looked at one person with a smile, it was Zhang Xiu, the spear king of the North!
It is rumored that this person, Zhao Yun and Zhang Ren are fellow disciples.
Zi Long……
"King Wei, I am very old..."
"In-laws, I remember how brave you were in Wancheng when you killed the enemy that day!"
"Wei Chen obeys the order!"
Cao Cao raised 300,000 troops and headed towards Jiangling, and Zhao Yun's encirclement network began to take shape!
