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

There is no way. Cao Wei's counselors have withered away and there are only a few who can fight.

Gao Rou is already the best among the second-rate ones.

The strongest Jia Xu stayed with Cao Cao, and the second-strongest Sima Yi assisted Cao Pi in Chang'an to supervise the country. Now Cao Cao can only assign Gao Rou to him.

"Well..."

Gao Rou stood up and asked for a map. He stared at the map without saying a word.

For him, solving the current dilemma is really difficult for him.

After all, there are not many soldiers and horses that Xiahou Yuan can use.

Otherwise, when he learned that Jiguan had fallen, he would not have offered a plan to ask Xiahou Yuan to forge Cao Cao's handwriting to mobilize the Huns to move south.

Without soldiers, how can we stop the Han army? .

"General, I've thought about it and we only have one solution."

Gao Rou turned around and said solemnly.

"One solution?"

"What other solution do you have? Tell me!"

Xiahou Yuan was excited and really thought Gao Rou had come up with some brilliant plan.

Gao Rou took a deep breath and bowed:

"General, Bingzhou cannot be defended. Let's quickly lead the Bingzhou army back to Guanzhong."

As soon as these words came out.

Xiahou Yuan's face changed color and he looked at Gao Rou in shock, thinking that he had heard it wrong.

This guy was actually persuading him to give up Bingzhou?

"The Xiongnu cavalry has been annihilated. We have no way to stop the Han cavalry from entering Hedong."

"If Liu Bei seizes Hedong, he can not only enter Guanzhong from Puguan, but also cut off our 40,000 Bingzhou troops in Bingzhou."

"At that time, not only Guanzhong will be lost, but even Bingzhou will be impossible to defend."

"Instead of doing so, it is better to abandon Bingzhou, save these 40,000 fresh troops for Your Majesty, and defend Puguan with all our strength."

"In this way, although Bingzhou is lost, we have defended Puguan and Guanzhong."

"General, this is our only choice."

Gao Rou explained the reason for his judgment.

Xiahou Yuan not only did not listen, but was furious and questioned him:

"I am ordered by the emperor to guard our Bingzhou. What a heavy responsibility."

"You actually want to persuade me to abandon Bingzhou and give up the land and city to the big-eared thief!"

"How do you want me to explain to the emperor?"

Faced with Xiahou Yuan's questioning, Gao Rou was not afraid and asked back:

"General, even if you don't abandon Bingzhou, can you defend it?"

"I——"

The question of "Can you defend it?" made Xiahou Yuan speechless.

He knew the situation in Bingzhou very well.

With his current military strength, it was a stretch to defend Jingxing Pass.

Once the Han army attacked from the south, he would have absolutely no chance to defend the pass.

Holding on would only lead to death!

But,He was unwilling to abandon Bingzhou like this.

You know, Wei only had three states left. If he abandoned Bingzhou, Wei would only have Yongzhou and Liangzhou.

How to explain to Cao Cao.

"General, don't hesitate any more."

"If we sacrifice Bingzhou now, we can still keep Guanzhong and Liangzhou."

"If the general is reluctant to give up Bingzhou, our Wei will be finished."

"Please think twice, general!"

Gao Rou bowed deeply and tried to persuade him again.

Xiahou Yuan was unmoved and said angrily:

"If you hadn't been so smart and didn't let me ask Your Majesty for help, how could I have asked the Huns to send troops."

"If Your Majesty had led the army to help earlier, Liu Bei might have been driven out of Hedong earlier."

"Now that the Huns have been defeated, you let me abandon Bingzhou and flee?"

"Gao Rou, what are you thinking?".
