The Supreme Call of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 155 Yue Fei's Worries

Cao Cao and Yuan Shao acted almost at the same time and launched an attack on Qingzhou. Within a day, Liu Xiao received more than ten waves of urgent reports!

Both sides fought at the same time, and Bingfeng had already begun to enter his sphere of influence.

Even though Liu Xiao was confident, he was now scratching his head.

"Lord, look at this terrain map..."

Xun You said, "Right now, Yuan Shao is putting all his eggs in one basket and gathering all his forces on the southwestern side of the plain, while Cao Cao is obviously weak, so he only sent [-] troops to attack Tai'an County. Perhaps this is a loophole we can take advantage of... "

Liu Xiao shook his head and replied: "Gongda, we can underestimate Yuan Shao, but we must not underestimate Cao Cao. Cao Cao's move to attack Tai'an County may be false, and it is true to lure Yuan Shao to attack Pingyuan County with all his strength. If Cao Cao does not send troops, Yuan Shao He must not dare to go all out. Now that Cao Cao is sending troops, Yuan Shao will definitely attack with all his strength, and Cao Cao's bluff is just to reap the benefits of the fisherman. Defeat Yuan Shao and break the current predicament!"

Xun Yu said in a deep voice: "My lord, now Liu Biao and Ma Teng cannot be counted on in a short time. We have to rely on ourselves. According to Xun Yu's guess, Cao Cao will definitely not be in a hurry to fight us decisively when he marches. It is just a bluff." , we can definitely assemble the main force and fight Yuan Shao first. Even if we temporarily abandon Tai'an County, we will buy enough time for us to gather and annihilate Yuan Shao. Now Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are like a pair of pliers clamping us, and we must kill them first. Cut off one of the pincer arms to break their pincer attack, and then we can defeat them one by one and secure the victory in one fell swoop!"

Liu Xiao smiled and said: "What Wen Ruo said is very much what I want! Pengju, I will only give you ten thousand troops, and let Gongming and Ziyi be your deputies to withstand Cao Cao's attack for me. If necessary, you can give up." Tai'an County, retreat to Qi County, there is only one condition, you must persist until I defeat Yuan Shaofang!"

Yue Fei frowned slightly. Three months later, his injuries had already fully recovered. It was not impossible to block Cao Cao's [-] troops with [-] troops, but he felt a little uneasy.

"My lord, with an army of [-] and Gongming Ziyi's help, I will block Cao Cao for the time being. There is absolutely no problem. However, what I am worried about is not Cao Cao's offensive in Tai'an County, nor Yuan Shao in the north, but rather, "

Yue Fei paused and said in a deep voice: "Cao Cao deployed [-] troops in Shanyang County and only sent [-] troops to attack Tai'an. This is too childish. Even if it is a show, it is impossible to do only half of it. Isn't he afraid that Yuan Shao will see the flaw?"

Liu Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly asked, "Pengju, in your opinion, what is Cao Cao's intention?"

Yue Fei looked at the map carefully, shook his head and said, "It's hard to say, in my opinion, my lord needs to send a lot of cavalry scouts to investigate the enemy's situation in Shanyang, Lujun, and Donghai."

Liu Xiao murmured: "You mean that Cao Cao may divide his troops to raid Langya Chengyang and cut off our connection with Xuzhou..."

Yue Fei said in a deep voice: "Very likely, otherwise, what is the use of his remaining [-] troops? Once he separates our two states, we will not be able to connect head to tail. We will only face Cao Cao's army with the strength of Qingzhou , but it was very strenuous..."

Xun Yu echoed: "My lord, the governor's worries are very necessary. Cao Cao has now recovered the entire Sili, and has taken a lot of troops from Zhang Ji and Lu Bu. Now there are at least more than [-] troops. It is entirely possible to rely on us The timing of the battle with Yuan Shao is to increase our troops again, a partial division will defend Xuzhou for reinforcements, and the main force will carry out a surprise attack after the battle between our army and Yuan Shao. At that time, we will be passive..."

Liu Xiao's eyes flashed, Cao Cao is indeed a brave man, his strategic vision far exceeds that of Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu. Once the connection between Xuzhou and Qingzhou is completely cut off, he will really be in trouble..."

"Ziyi, lead five thousand elites and go straight to Chengyang County. Once Cao Jun attacks, you must hold on to Chengyang County and ensure that Chengyang County is not lost!"

Liu Xiao shouted.

Tai Shici hastily agreed, and left with his hands folded.

Liu Xiao said in a deep voice: "Pengju, Wen Ruo, I will leave Cao Cao's offensive on the western front to the two of you. Be sure to defend Qi County and prevent Cao Cao from entering the hinterland of Qingzhou! Gao Chong, Dian Wei, Zhi Jie, Gong Ming , use all the strength of Qingzhou and Xuzhou, and follow me to Pingyuan County to defend against the enemy! Gongda is with the army as a military counselor, and Qingzhou City is temporarily under the command of Xuanling. Today we will rectify the three armies, and we will go out tomorrow!"

As soon as Liu Xiao deployed, Chu Yanfei walked in quickly!
"Lord, the cavalry scouts are here to report that a Cao army left Shanyang County the day before yesterday and marched straight south. Now it has entered Lu County!"

Chu Yanfei said anxiously.

"what?"

Liu Xiao immediately stood up and asked, "How many troops is this Cao army, and who is leading it?"

Chu Yanfei said in a deep voice: "It is reported that Cao's army has a strength of 3 to [-], and Cao's generals Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan personally led it!"

Liu Xiao slapped the book table hard, Cao Cao, Cao Cao, is really powerful, Cao Jun has been away from Shanyang County for two or three days now, if he travels at night, he may be able to reach Langya County in two or three days , now Langya County only has a few hundred troops defending the city, how can it resist Xiahouyuan and Xiahoudun brothers?
"Gao Chong, lead five thousand fine cavalry and rush to help. Be sure to arrive in Langya County before Xiahoudun. Cao Cao's plan must not be allowed to succeed!"

Liu Xiao shouted.

"No need!"

Xun Yu said in a deep voice: "My lord, even if we send out elite cavalry, we still can't reach Langya County before the Xiahou Dun brothers. Moreover, dividing our troops is a taboo for military strategists. Our army is already weak. If we divide our troops again, wouldn't it be a disaster?" Even weaker? Without General Gao Chong and General Zilong no more, who will stand up to Lu Bu?"

Liu Xiao asked: "In your opinion, what should I do?"

Xun Yu replied: "My lord, the distance from Langya County to Xuzhou is only two hundred miles. Xiahou Dun entered Langya County, and he couldn't hide it from Feng Xiao's eyes. I think Feng Xiao will respond in time. Even if Langya County falls, Feng Xiao will definitely There is a way to solve the threat of Brother Xiahoudun, and the best way now is to believe in Fengxiao! Then concentrate all our troops and defeat Yuan Shao as soon as possible!"

Liu Xiao pondered for a moment, then said harshly: "Okay, I will hand over Langya County to Fengxiao this time, and today I will send troops to Pingyuan County to fight Yuan Shao! Damn it, if the tiger doesn't show his power, he will really take me Be a sick cat, this time, Yuan Shao must be completely blessed! Let him know how many eyes Prince Ma has!"
