Guo Jia suddenly turned his head and looked at Sima Yi

"This man's heart is evil. If the king favors him so much, something will happen sooner or later..."

Guo Jia couldn't help but frown.

Naturally, he could see that Sima Yi was telling lies.

It was obviously a miscalculation on his part. He didn't expect that this was Deng Mu's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain. Plan.

It was Cheng Yu who clearly made his own initiative, discovered the flaw in Guan Yu's army, and ordered Xiahou Dun to lead his army to attack Kunyang to cut off Guan Yu's retreat.

However, Sima Yi forcibly took the credit for himself, saying that Sima Yi was responsible for all this. His plan!

How can such cunning and irresponsible character be worthy of being a minister of the Wei Dynasty?

Guo Jia didn’t believe it, but Cao Cao believed it.

The original resentment on his face was immediately replaced by Sima Yi’s words. , turned into a surprise

"Zhongda, are you saying that you have been planning to annihilate Guan Yu's army from the beginning?"

Cao Cao asked ecstatically.

Seeing that Cao Cao believed it was true, Sima Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the confidence on his face became more and more realistic.

"We lost 50,000 troops in the battle of Suiyang. Our troops are already at a disadvantage on the battlefield in the Central Plains. No matter how we use our troops, it will be difficult to reverse our passiveness."

"Since the situation cannot be opened up on the frontal battlefield, it naturally has to be reversed on the side battlefield."

"The two states of Jingyu and Xuchang are close to each other. If 08 can defeat Guan Yu's army, not only will the threat to the south of Xuchang be eliminated, but the two states of Jingyu and Henan can also be taken advantage of!"

"Since Liu Bei intends to play the trick of driving the tiger away from the mountain, I will naturally follow the plan and destroy Guan Yu's army for the king, and take advantage of the opportunity to capture Jingyu!"

Sima Yi said arrogantly and with hindsight. The more

Cao Cao listened, the more convinced he became, and he couldn't help but nodded and said in admiration:

"Zhongda’s miraculous calculations are really unrivaled by anyone in the world."

"I have said before, Zhong, you are the only one who can restrain Deng Mu!"

"Now it seems that I am indeed right!"

After admiring him, Cao Cao raised his lips with sarcasm and sneered:

"Deng Mu, Deng Mu, you think you are scheming, and you want to repeat your old tricks, playing on me like a clown."

"But you never expected that if you stumble this time, you will be teased by my Zhongda."

"Hahaha——"

The more Cao Cao thought about it, the more proud he became, and he couldn't help laughing loudly.

Seeing this, Sima Yi took advantage of the situation and handed him over:

"My plan has been completed, now is the time for your Majesty to strike back."

"I thought that the king could keep tens of thousands of troops, so I used the king's name to bluff here in order to hold back the main force of the big-eared thieves."

"Your Majesty, you can lead your army westward from Sishui Pass to Luoyang and attack Guan Yu's army head-on."

"The former general can take advantage of the situation to capture Kunyang and cut off Guan Yu's retreat."

"In this way, we can form a closed door and beat the dog trend against Guan Yu's army, and annihilate him in one fell swoop at the front line of Henan Yin!"

Sima Yi also reacted very quickly, and immediately offered Cao Cao a countermeasure when he made a mistake.

Cao Cao readily adopted it and said boldly:

"According to Zhongda's plan, I passed the king's order and left 30,000 troops and horses under the unified command of Zixiao to contain the big-eared bandits."

"I personally led 70,000 troops and horses, and immediately marched westward at starry night to Sishui Pass!"

The order was passed.

One hundred thousand Wei troops were immediately divided.

Thirty thousand soldiers and horses were left in Bobing City, and many flags were planted to create the illusion that the main force of the Wei army was still there.

Seventy thousand Wei troops, on foot and cavalry, were commanded by Cao Cao and marched westward day and night.

Four days later, Fengqiu City was north of the city.

The 70,000 Wei troops are rushing westward in a cloud of dust.

"Your Majesty, Fengqiu City is just ahead. Do you want the army to enter the city to rest for half a day?"

"The soldiers marched for four days, traveling under starry nights, and were really exhausted."

Ma Chao galloped over on his horse and asked Cao Cao for instructions.

Cao Cao hesitated and turned his eyes to Sima Yi.

Sima Yi calculated with his fingers and said confidently:

"Now Guan Yu has just passed Yangcheng at most. Time is on our side, so it doesn't hurt to let the soldiers rest for half a day."

Cao Cao obeyed Sima Yi's words and immediately ordered the entire army to stop advancing and rest near Fengqiu City. The

70,000-strong army finally stopped running and set up camp on the spot to take a breather.

Cao Cao then rode into the city and went straight to the county government.

His buttocks were still there. It was not yet warm and the wine had not yet been drunk.

The tiger guard came to report that Cheng Yu and Yang Qiu had arrived and that there were 100,000 urgent troops seeking to see them.

"Cheng Yu and Yang Qiu were not stationed in Xuchang, so why did they appear in Fengqiu?"

Cao Cao suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, so he had to put down his wine glass first and called the two of them into the hall.

After a moment,

Cheng Yu and Yang Qiu stumbled into the hall and knelt down in front of the steps.

"King!" (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"I am incompetent, I am ashamed of your Majesty!"

Cheng Yu knelt down on the ground and kowtowed with shame.

Yang Qiu also quickly knelt down.

Cao Cao's expression changed and he shouted urgently:

"Why are you two doing this? What happened? Tell me! Cheng

Yu sighed and said sadly:

"The ministers are incompetent and failed to defend Xuchang despite the entrustment of the king!"

"Xuchang City has fallen!"

Cao Cao changed his face in shock.

Sima Yi, Guo Jia and others also changed their expressions.

Especially Sima Yi, who was so frightened that he dropped his wine glass and fell on the table.

"How did Xuchang fall?"

"You two must stop joking!"

Cao Cao came to his senses and shouted excitedly at the two of them.

Guan Yu's army was clearly going to attack Luoyang, and there were still more than 10,000 defenders in Xuchang City.[]

It was so inexplicable that he fell suddenly. How could he not shock Cao Cao?

Just when Cheng Yu was about to speak.

Yang Qiu took the lead and said:

"King Qizhen, the main force of Guan Yu, suddenly returned to Xuchang and besieged the city on all sides."

"The ministers and other soldiers are few, the soldiers' 440 soldiers' morale is broken, and no one is willing to fight to the death."

"I fought hard and lost, so I was forced to evacuate Xuchang."

Yang Qiu was being cunning. He didn't dare to say that he was fleeing without a fight, let alone the fact that Xiahou Dun was killed. When

Cheng Yu saw that he lied about military information, he glanced at Yang Qiu anxiously.

Yang Qiu turned a blind eye. , just lowered his head, looking as generous as retreating from a fight to the death.

"This is impossible!"

Before Cao Cao could question, Sima Yidan jumped up.

"General Yuan Rang has already rushed to Kunyang, and has probably succeeded at this moment, cutting off Guan Yu's army from returning."

"How could Guan Yu's main army fight back to Xuchang!"

Sima Yi's question was also Cao Cao's question.

Cao Cao smashed his wine glass on the table and said sternly:

"How did you two lose Xuchang? Tell me honestly!"

Yang Qiu was trembling and didn't know how to explain it.

Finally,

Cheng Yu gritted his teeth and sighed:

"Your Majesty, we fell into Guan Yu’s poisonous trick to lure the snake out of its cave!"

"Guan Yu pretended to attack Luoyang in order to lure General Xiahou and his main force out of the city to attack Kunyang. However, he set up an ambush at Yingshui and completely annihilated the main force of our army."

"General Xiahou...he...he was also killed by Guan Yu!"

Cheng Yu stammered again and again, but still told the bad news.

In an instant,

Cao Cao's figure froze...
