Qinglong Three Kingdoms

Chapter 696 Taking Luoyang as the Battlefield
Through the news sent back from Xudu by the school office, Zhu Wei knew that Cao Cao was actually planning to exchange the emperor for Yuan Shao's support.

Now there has been a topic in Xudu, saying that in order to avoid the danger of the rebellious minister Zhu Wei threatening Xudu and kidnapping the emperor, Cao Sikong is already preparing to send the emperor to move his capital to Yecheng to ensure the safety of the emperor.

Of course, the transfer of the Son of Heaven is a big event.

Therefore, Xu Du is still preparing for the emperor to move the capital for the time being, but it is not yet known when the emperor will move to Yecheng.

But Cao Cao preemptively bit Zhu Wei. Relying on his advantage of controlling the Han court, he directly designated Zhu Wei as a traitor and traitor, and completely tore his face with Zhu Wei. The Taiwei and General Hussars.

However, Zhu Wei felt that Cao Cao was still playing tricks. Although he promised to transfer the emperor to Yecheng, the specific time when he would send the emperor to Yecheng was probably far away.

It's just that now, Cao Cao seems to have an excuse to resist Zhu Wei's rhetoric about welcoming the emperor back to the imperial capital Luoyang. Since Zhu Wei has been identified as a traitor, it is naturally impossible for Cao Cao to send the emperor to Zhu Wei.

Then there was news in Xudu that Da Sikong and Chariot General Cao Cao would join forces with General Yuan Shao to conquer Zhu Wei.

Apparently Cao Cao was not worried that this news would put Zhu Wei on guard. He just wanted to pull Yuan Shao into the water. For this reason, Cao Cao especially asked Yang Xiu, the chief bookkeeper in Xudu, to draft a call to action against Zhu Wei, which was eloquent. Good article.

Anyway, Zhu Wei is said to be full of ambitions, not loyal to the emperor and serving the country. I killed an unfilial person.

Zhu Wei, who is so unfaithful and unfilial, should let the people of the world discuss it together, and then it is also stated in the call to action that General Cao Cao and General Yuan Shao will attack Zhu Wei together, so as to set the record straight.

Then Cao Cao sent a copy of the call to action to Yuan Shao's side, as if he would express his position by telegram in the future. Letting Yuan Shao also be listed on the call to arms was tantamount to forcing Yuan Shao to admit the fact that the two coalition forces conquered Zhu Wei.

In this way, the conquest of Zhu Wei by the Cao Cao and Yuan Shao coalition forces seems to have become a certainty.

For this reason, Zhu Wei hurriedly called Jia Xu, Liu Ye, Zhuge Liang, Sun Quan and other military advisers to discuss countermeasures, and finally made a decision to face Yuan Shao and Cao Cao's possible attack in Luoyang.

First of all, Zhu Wei also had an army of [-] from Pang Yan's Xiong Ba camp in Luoyang. Together with the approximately [-] troops from the Zhongjun camp, he had assembled at least [-] troops, which was enough to fight against the combined forces of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.

Secondly, this Luoyang is not the site that Zhu Wei has been operating for a long time, so if a war starts in Luoyang, even if the war is turned upside down, it will not have any impact on Zhu Wei's Jingzhou, Yangzhou and other sites.

This is tantamount to arranging the battlefield outside Zhu Wei's direct control territory, so the destructive impact of the war is actually nothing to Zhu Wei.

Again, if Zhu Wei left Luoyang, it would be tantamount to losing the advantage of occupying Luoyang before, so Cao Cao would definitely not ignore the importance of Luoyang, and it would be difficult for Zhu Wei to attack Luoyang again in the future.

What's more, Zhu Wei, Jingnan Battalion and Huyi Battalion are now fighting in Guanzhong. If Zhu Wei leaves Luoyang, they will be trapped in Guanzhong, which may directly lead to the annihilation of their two armies in Guanzhong.

As long as Zhu Wei insists on staying in Luoyang, when the battle in Guanzhong is stable, the Jingnan Battalion and Huyi Battalion can withdraw to support Zhu Wei, so that Zhu Wei can increase his strength by nearly [-].

In addition, if the battle in Guanzhong goes well, Zhu Wei may be able to mobilize Ma Teng's army to help in the battle, then Zhu Wei can also mobilize more troops to fight Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.

Finally, according to the analysis of Jia Xu, Zhuge Liang and others, facing the attack of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's allied forces this time, the actual situation may not be so dangerous. Maybe Cao Cao will go all out to send troops, but Yuan Shao may not I did my best.

At least for now, Yuan Shao is unlikely to gather more than [-] troops to go south at once, as in the original history of conquering Cao Cao, so it is not certain how many troops Yuan Shao can send.

After all, Yuan Shao had just defeated Gongsun Zan of Yijing, and at the same time he had a battle with Zhang Yan's troops of the Black Mountain Army. It would take some time for Yuan Shao to recover and recover from the battle damage.

Therefore, in the original history, Yuan Shao had to wait until the beginning of next year to send troops south to attack Cao Cao, but now, even if Yuan Shao agreed to send troops with Cao Cao, he might not be able to spare many troops.

What's more, Yuan Shao played passively this time, instead of playing sincerely, so Yuan Shao would naturally want to preserve his strength and watch Zhu Wei and Cao Cao fight recklessly.

At the same time, even though Cao Cao and Yuan Shao had reached an alliance and jointly sent troops to conquer Zhu Wei, there was no gap between them. Although Cao Cao said that he wanted to send the emperor to Yecheng, it was probably just Cao Cao's strategy. It was a bait to persuade Yuan Shao to send troops.

Therefore, as long as Zhu Wei can block the offensive trend of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao and drag the war into a confrontation, he will definitely find an opportunity to destroy the alliance between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao.

In addition, Zhu Wei also stationed troops led by Tai Shici and Huang Zhong in Xuzhou and Shouchun. Since Cao Cao and Yuan Shao have turned against Zhu Wei, Tai Shici and Huang Zhong can also wait for the opportunity to send troops to harass Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, thereby restraining Cao Cao. , Yuan Shao sent troops to Luoyang.

It can only be said that Zhu Wei's military strength is indeed strong enough now, even if he faces Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's coalition forces one-on-two, Zhu Wei is actually not that afraid.

Of course, there is the most crucial point, that is, Zhu Wei has the assistance of the Three Kingdoms game system, so he can worry less about many problems.

Now that Zhu Wei occupies Luoyang City, Luoyang City is a city with permanent merchants in the Three Kingdoms game system, so Zhu Wei can purchase food, crossbow arrows and war horses through the Luoyang Phase Field of the Three Kingdoms game system at any time to meet his military needs. need.

After Zhu Wei occupied the south, Zhu Wei has used various means to collect a large amount of gold and put it into the Three Kingdoms game system. Now Zhu Wei still has more than 5 units of gold in the Three Kingdoms game system.

This is what Zhu Wei has left over after purchasing and storing a large amount of grain and grass, as well as a large number of crossbow arrows and war horses.

In this way, as long as Zhu Wei is on the front line of Luoyang, as long as Zhu Wei's army still occupies Luoyang City, he can purchase supplies through the phase field of the Three Kingdoms game system at any time.

As far as Zhu Wei is concerned, as long as his army does not suffer a large-scale defeat on the frontal battlefield, Zhu Wei is confident that he can rely on Luoyang to carry out a long-term confrontation with Cao Cao and Yuan Shao.

Of course, Zhu Wei would not just take a defensive stance in Luoyang. Zhu Wei sent military orders to Xiangyang in Jingzhou, Shouchun in Yangzhou, and Pengcheng in Xuzhou...
