I have a mediocre system

Chapter 65 Steady Qitian

Cao Cao comforted: "It's hard work for those who are capable! Why do you think I keep you in Xuchang? Isn't it because I trust you?"

"My army is out, and the safety of the rear is really the most important thing. Besides Xun Lingjun, I trust you the most!"

"If you follow us, who will guard our home? Who will protect the families of those of us who marched south?"

"Isn't it you, Xiahou Yuanrang?"

"I know the work is hard and tiring, but besides you, we don't feel at ease when others stay behind! Are you right, Fengxian?"

Qi Tian quickly nodded and said: "My lord is right!"

Xiahou Dun smiled wryly, but finally nodded and said, "Okay, I'll do my best to guard the house for my lord!"

Cao Cao laughed happily, and Guo Jia and others also praised Xiahou Dun for his benevolence!
After arguing for a while, Cao Cao said solemnly: "Before everything is agreed, I will show you my big baby! Come!"

The left and right attendants stepped forward, one left and one right, and slowly unfolded the two-meter-long map of Xichuan. Guo Jia glanced at it and said in surprise:
"This is the topographic map of Xichuan?!"

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes slightly and nodded, "I asked Feng Xian to get this from Xichuan envoy Zhang Song last night!"

"I see his whereabouts are surreptitious, and I guess there must be something strange in it, so I asked Feng Xian and my son Wen to check it out!"

"Sure enough, this fellow packed up his things all night and prepared to flee. After Fengxian arrested him, he found something good!"

A group of civil and military men approached the Xichuan map, and praised again and again: "Good picture!"

"Mountains, rivers, fortresses and military defenses, you can see them all within an inch!"

"I have to say, although this piece of Yongnian is not good in appearance, the picture is really good!"

After playing with it for a while, Guo Jia said:
"With this map of Xichuan, we need to adjust our strategy after capturing Jingzhou!"

Cao Cao nodded and said, "That's why I asked you to discuss the matter!"

Xiahou Dun rubbed his hands together and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know if I should say something or not?"

Cao Cao glanced at him and said, "Don't talk about it yet!"

Xiahou Dun sat down resentfully, knowing that his dream of leading troops to fight was temporarily impossible to realize.

Xun You stroked his beard and said, "With this map of Xichuan, we can advance to Yizhou after we have destroyed Jingzhou, and then go down to Jiangdong from Jingzhou!"

"If the war goes well, two-line combat is also possible!"

Guo Jia stopped nodding her head suddenly, then frowned and said:
"Do you think there is a possibility!"

"Zhang Songhua is not the only one who knows about the Xichuan map, but also told other people, who may be blood relatives or close friends!"

"In case something like today happens, Zhang Song's relationship in Shu will inform Liu Zhang of the matter. At that time, his military deployment will change. If our generals really follow this Xichuan map to attack Shu, I'm afraid It's impossible to guard against!"

Xiahou Dun was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat when he heard the words!
What Xiahoudun wanted to say just now was actually to lead the army to attack Shu. After all, with the map of Xichuan in hand, Xiahoudun is confident that he can bring an army of [-] to conquer the natural danger of Xichuan!
But when Guo Jia said this, Xia Houdun immediately felt that he was not well!
Those who engage in government affairs are black-hearted!
Gan!
Liu Yu frowned and said, "This matter is indeed unavoidable!"

Cao Cao pondered for a while, and said, "Since that's the case, we will have two plans when the time comes!"

"If Liu Zhang switches defenses, leave a general with a [-]-strong army to command Xichuan! If there is a chance, go up to take advantage of it, and if there is no chance, strictly prevent Xichuan from sending troops to attack my rear!"

"Then the army went to Jiangdong, and first took the land of Jiangdong, the land of Xichuan and one state, but it is just a turtle in a jar!"

"If Liu Zhang didn't switch defenses, we will follow the Xichuan map, defend Jiangdong, and quickly attack Xichuan!"

Guo Jia and the others communicated with each other for a while, and felt that Cao Cao's arrangement was reasonable, and then Cheng Yu said:

"Since that's the case, who will be left to guard Xi Chuan?"

"General Miaocai is deploying defenses in Chang'an, and General Yuan Rang wants to stay in Xuchang. You can't let General Cao Ren go?"

This is not without reason. If Liu Zhang switches defenses, there is a high probability that the generals sent to defend Xichuan will not have the opportunity to participate in the attack, but this is another important position!

To put it simply, defending Xichuan is like supplying the logistics of the army, but the credit is far lower than that of the logistics army!

Sending Cao Ren to go is obviously not feasible. As the only person who was recruited by the three great generals of the princes of the Xia Dynasty, if he is placed in such a place, let alone whether Cao Cao will do it or not, there will be a wave of waves in the army!

Unless Cao Cao raised the contribution of the guard army to the level of the logistics army, or a little lower.

But in this way, the guards will become the target of public criticism. Everyone is working hard to earn credit. Wherever you set up camp and wander around, you should be able to gain the same or even more credit. Is it appropriate?

Cao Cao's eyebrows twitched into a ball, thinking secretly, and then he heard a heroic and magnetic voice!

"I'll go!" It was Qi Tian!
Cao Cao shook his hands and refused, "Fengxian, don't be joking. If there is no support from Fengxian on the side of my army, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep peacefully!"

Qi Tian cupped his hands and explained: "Your Majesty, Rongzhi, it's not foolish for me to ask for orders to guard Xichuan, and the reasons are as follows!"

"First; Gao Shun, Zhang Yun, Wen Chou, Ma Chao and others are all powerful generals, and the Jiangdong cavalry can almost ignore them, so they are fully capable of supporting the cavalry!"

"Second; Xu Zhongkang's reputation as a tiger idiot is well known throughout the world, and Lord Suwei is no exception! I have no worries!"

"Third, since Bu followed the lord, everyone knows how stable I am! With me in Xichuan, discipline Xichuan can't reveal a complete soldier!"

"Fourth: Bu was born in Bingzhou and lived in the Central Plains all the year round. If it were the rugged mountains in Xichuan, Bu himself would be able to deal with it calmly; but for the big rivers in the east of the river, Bu has already lost four of his seven legs, and the other two are likely to be soft. The last one , this, marching and fighting don’t depend on this~”

As soon as Qi Tian finished speaking, everyone burst into laughter, Xiahou Dun's voice was the loudest, and Guo Jia's posture was the most unrestrained
After a while, Cao Cao calmed down his shortness of breath, looked at Qi Tian, ​​and said:

"You, you, nothing else, you have to be steady!"

"Hey, that Wushuang General Lu Fengxian in Kowloon Bay who chopped off from tail to head, pierced Jun Yi's [-] troops, and captured a member of the general alive, you can't say that you are stable!"

Qi Tian smiled and said: "Isn't this a special situation and the terrain is suitable? I have already prepared for this matter, and I only proceeded when I had more than half the odds in my mind. How could it not be prudent to move after making a plan?"

To be reasonable, compress the elder brother to knock five into the air, he is full of blood, he is dressed in a magic costume, and he has both moves;

What's the point of living if you don't do this?
It's boring!
