Three Kingdoms: The ghost plotter taught Liu Bei to seize Jingzhou first

Cao Zhen got up and paced, silent.

He was in a state of hesitation.

It was impossible to ask Cao Cao for help.

First of all, he only lost the Sword Pavilion Pass, the main army was not heavily damaged, and he still had 30,000 ~ new troops in his hands.

In this case, there is a lot of chaos, and he is in a hurry to ask Cao Cao for help, how can he be worthy of Cao Cao's attention to him, and how can he be worthy of the position of commander of Hanzhong.

But if he didn't ask Cao Cao for help, as Zhang He feared, Deng Mu had secretly entered Shu and was in Guan Yu's army.

Then the nature of the 80,000 Han army has changed.

Its power can be said to be no less than the main force of more than 200,000 Han troops under Liu Bei's personal command.

"General Cao, you have to make a decision quickly. "

"If you hesitate any longer, Deng Mu and Guan Yu will fight to Yangping Pass. "

Zhang He had to urge and remind.

Cao Zhen's body was shocked, and after taking a deep breath, his face had changed to a decisive color.

"I am entrusted by the Son of Heaven to guard the land of Hanzhong, and I should share the worries of the Son of Heaven, how can I add chaos to the Son of Heaven and ask the Son of Heaven for help?"

"Although Deng Mu is treacherous, but no matter how tricky he is, I only stick to Yangping Pass, how can he do anything?"

"I don't believe it, he is really omnipotent, just with his so-called resourcefulness, he can break my Yangping Guantian Danger!"

"I have made up my mind, gather the main force to stick to Yangping Pass, and do not ask the Son of Heaven for help!"

Cao Zhen made a decisive decision.

Zhang He was helpless, so he had to shake his head and sigh secretly.

Zhang Ren laughed and said proudly:

"Okay, General Cao, it's really extraordinary!"

"Don't worry, with me Zhang Ren here, that big-eared thief doesn't want to take a step beyond Yangpingguan!"

"And that Deng Mu, I want to see what other conspiracies and tricks he can use to break our Yangping Pass!"

Present.

Cao Zhen agreed on a defensive strategy.

Gather 30,000 main forces, stick to Yangping Pass, and make every effort to base the Han army.

At the same time, he sent an envoy north to Tongguan to report to Cao Cao about the war in Hanzhong, only reporting the fact of the Sword Pavilion, but assuring Cao Cao that Yangping Pass was impregnable and indestructible, and asked Cao Cao not to worry about the war in Hanzhong, and only focused on Tongguan to resist Liu Bei.

As soon as he rode the messenger, he immediately went north and rushed to Tongguan under the stars.

...

Tongguan.

Above the Guancheng, Cao Cao was standing with his hands in his hands, looking down at the Han army outside the pass.

Boundless camps, boundless battle flags.

The dense figures of the Han soldiers were like dark clouds, and they were terrified to see people.

Two hundred and fifty thousand Han troops!

This is the real strength of the Han army, which is stationed east of Tongguan.

And the soldiers under his command were only 70,000.

That's a four-fold difference.

"If I don't lose the two rivers, why will I change the offensive and defensive situation, and be aggressive by Liu Bei!"

Cao Cao shook his head and sighed, his eyes showing remorse and pity.

Think about how strong he was after defeating Yuan Shao back then.

In the two rivers and states, Yanyu Si Ji You are all in hand, and his strength is far better than Liu Bei.

If it weren't for the loss of the two rivers, the person who had hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands and was approaching the city at this moment might be him.

And the person who cowered in the city, did not dare to fight, and could only look at the enemy and sigh, should be Liu Bei.

"The past is gone, so don't mention it. "

"Your Majesty, even though Liu Bei has an army of one million, we have Tongguan in hand, he can only look at Guan and sigh. "

Ma Chao beside him looked proud, so relieved Cao Cao.

Cao Cao's spirits were slightly uplifted, and the corners of his mouth raised a touch of disdain. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Ma Chao is right.

Although Liu Bei had an army of 250,000, his troops had been in the city for nearly a month, and he had attacked more than 10 large and small.

In addition to the loss of thousands of soldiers, it failed to shake Tongguan in the slightest.

Even the Xiangyang cannon, which Liu Bei was most proud of, could not collapse even a single piece of the city wall of Tongguan.

None of them.

It was only because Cao Cao learned a lesson that Tongguan was rebuilt.

Beyond the original local wall, there is another stone city.

The strength of such a double wall is unprecedented.

No matter how strong the Xiangyang cannon is, how can it shake it.

It was precisely by relying on such a strong city that he relied on a full 70,000 soldiers and horses to order Liu Bei's 250,000 troops to march under the city, and there was nothing he could do.

"Liu Bei, I want to see how you can get my Tongguan City!"

Cao Cao stroked his short hair and sneered, looking at Han Ying's eyes, he did not hide his conceit and sarcasm.

Then.

Jia Xu, who had been silent, suddenly said: []

"Your Majesty, in terms of Tongguan, the old minister is not worried. "

"Lao Chen is just worried that there may be chaos on the southern front. "

Southern Route?

That's Hanzhong.

"Wen He, do you mean that Guan Yu will also do his best to raise the Yizhou Legion and launch an attack on my Hanzhong?"

Cao Cao was Cao Cao in the end, and he immediately guessed what Jia Xu was referring to.

Jia Xu nodded slightly.
