The Supreme Call of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 467
"Besides,"

Liu Xiao said, "Temujin has unified more than half of the Great Wall, and now he is using troops against us. I believe he will enter Liangzhou in a short time. Li Shimin is also facing a huge threat. At this time, he should distinguish the importance Put aside the internal struggles in the Central Plains, and send troops to resist foreign aggression!"

Sima Yi smiled wryly and said: "What General Xuangan said is true, but the general and Mr. Cao have such compassionate feelings and put their family, country and world first, but Li Shimin may not..."

Liu Xiao said in a deep voice: "Okay, since that's the case, then I will promise Duke Cao that if Li Shimin dares to stab us in the back, once Temujin is repelled, then I will personally lead the army to help Duke Cao take revenge. ? I’ll write the book to Duke Cao right now.”

Sima Yi was overjoyed, and said with a smile: "As long as there are generals, that's enough. Looking around the world, who doesn't know that General Xuangan keeps his promises, keeps his promises, and never breaks his promises. Sima will return to Cao Ying to meet the lord and persuade him to send troops to merge the state." !"

After sending Sima Yi away, Liu Xiao returned to the big tent to discuss matters.

Guo Jia said in a deep voice: "My lord, Temujin is threatening our two families now. At this time, it is natural that we should fight against the enemy together and ask Cao Cao to send troops to Jizhou to fight with us. How can my lord agree to him? You just need to restrain Temujin." Are you really biased? In this way, all the pressure will be on us!"

Liu Xiao smiled and said, "Feng Xiao, do you think it will be easy for Cao Cao to contain Temujin?"

Guo Jia said in amazement: "My lord, isn't it easier to face [-] to [-] fine horses than to face [-] to [-] fine horses?"

Liu Xiao said with a smile: "Feng Xiao, I would rather face the [-] elite cavalry outside the Great Wall who are about to besiege Yecheng than face this Temujin. Don't think about it, even if the prime minister is a genius and uses soldiers like a god, In the past three or four months, facing Temujin, he could only stick to Changshan, and there was no way to turn the situation around. If Temujin was just an ordinary prince, how could he suppress our prime minister?"

Guo Jia was startled, and said suspiciously: "My lord, this Temujin is really so powerful that the lord is so afraid!"

Liu Xiao nodded and said: "Of course, if Temu is really an ordinary person, one of the prime minister and the governor will definitely come to Yecheng in person, and both of them stayed in Changshan, which means that neither of them is sure to face it alone. Temujin, and then defeated him, neither of them is sure, what do you think Cao Cao will gain by restraining Temujin?"

Almost all the civil and military people were shocked. This is the first time I heard such a high evaluation of the opponent from the mouth of the lord. It needs Zhuge Liang and Yue Fei to face it together. The two of them have one civil and one military. That is an invincible existence in the world. Yue Fei alone was able to turn Cao Cao upside down, and Zhuge Liang even defeated Cao Jun's elite main force led by Xi Zhicai. According to what the lord said, Cao Cao went north to contain Temujin. What a blessing...

Liu Xiao went on to say: "I never expected that Cao Cao could really defeat Temujin, or even encircle and annihilate Temujin. I only need him to be able to contain Temujin in the area of ​​Yanmen County, and the rest of the city near Yecheng The main force outside the Great Wall, I will annihilate them freely!"

Guo Jia said in a deep voice: "Since the lord wants to personally lead the army to wipe out this army outside the Great Wall, he should act immediately, otherwise, if the army led by Zilong and Gao Chong is defeated, the army led by Zilong and Gao Chong will suffer heavy casualties. We have [-] to [-] pawns in our hands, but we don't have any confidence to defeat the opponent..."

Liu Xiao shook his head and replied: "It is precisely because we are not sure about the strength of these troops that we need to rest patiently. As long as Yecheng is not lost, it will not have much impact on us. Rest patiently for five days and wait for the army to recover. It's not too late to fight, not to mention, if you want to defeat Zilong and Gao Chongboyue and lead 2 people to station in Shijiling, guarding against danger, it is not so easy to defeat these [-] elites, enough to make Temujin The sharpness of the fine cavalry has all been wiped out, and this is the time when the difference in combat power between us and the army outside the Great Wall is the smallest!"

Liu Xiao made up his mind, and didn't even send Xue Rengui, Wang Yanzhang and other generals to help Shijiling. If Gao Chong and Zhao Yun were not the opponents of Murong Ke and others, even if Xue Rengui and Wang Yanzhang arrived, they would be helpless. After all, Wang Yanzhang He is also not as good as Gao Chong; Xue Rengui is also not as good as Zhao Yun.

On the fifth day, just on the fourth day, news of the fall of Shiji Ridge reached Liu Xiao's camp.

"My lord, my lord!"

Xue Rengui came in a hurry, and said anxiously: "Just now, the news came from the cavalry. General Zilong confronted the army outside the Great Wall at Shijiling for seven days, and finally retreated to Shijiling due to heavy casualties. Now he has begun to retreat towards Yecheng. .”

Liu Xiao raised his eyebrows and said calmly: "Seven days of confrontation, hehe, enough. The Jingqi outside the Great Wall attacked Shijiling for seven days. There must be a lot of casualties. From Shijiling to Yecheng, there is still a distance of two hundred miles. , Zilong and the others fight and retreat, enough to buy us a few days..."

Xue Rengui said anxiously: "My lord, General Zilong and his friends are suffering quite a lot of casualties now. If we don't send troops again, we won't have many troops at hand when we get to Yecheng..."

Liu Xiao looked at Xue Rengui and asked, "What? Rengui, do you think our army is ready?"

Xue Rengui said in a high voice: "My lord, although our army is not as good as the elite under the command of the governor, it is also the main force that fought all the way from the Central Plains to the south of the Yangtze River. It was fought in bloody battles. The four or five days of rest and reorganization have already made us They have regained their energy, and now the morale of the soldiers is high, it is the best time for us to send troops!"

Liu Xiao looked at Guo Jia and said, "Feng Xiao, what do you think?"

Guo Jia echoed: "My lord, I think what General Xue said is very true. These soldiers all fought bloody battles from the Central Plains all the way to the south of the Yangtze River. Although they are not as brave as Jizhou Jingqi, they are not comparable to ordinary trilogy. After a day's rest, they have all recovered. Moreover, most of them are from Youzhou and Jizhou. The elders in their hometown were slaughtered. They can't hold back their anger. If they want to forcefully suppress their desire for war, I'm afraid it will be counterproductive! "

Liu Xiao nodded heavily, and said in a deep voice, "In that case, Dian Wei obeys the order!"

Dian Wei stood up quickly, bowed and said, "The last general is here!"

"Immediately lead [-] elite soldiers to advance towards Yecheng, rush to help Yecheng, and assist Zilong and Wen Ruo to defend Yecheng, there must be no mistakes!"

Liu Xiao shouted in a deep voice.

Dian Wei took the command arrow, turned and left.

"Come here, give Yue Fei my letter immediately, and order Yue Fei to act according to what the letter says after receiving it!"

Liu Xiao shouted: "Within one month, I will have all the [-] troops from outside the Great Wall buried in Jizhou!"
