Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

Chapter 144 Attack Wu with all your strength!

Just now, most people looked at it from Cao Wei's own perspective and felt that they should immediately divide their troops and rush to support Jing Xiang. But after Guanqiu Jian explained it from the Shu Han perspective, everyone discovered the problem.

Now that Shu Han and Soochow are at odds, it may be temporary at any time. But now it is impossible for him to take action against Jing Xiang. With Soochow on one side and Cao Wei on the other, the Shu army would not be able to defend it at all.

Before taking Jiangling, the Shu Han was destined not to choose the route of attacking Jingxiang.

The reason why the Shu army attacked Shangyong obviously had other purposes.

Guanqiu Jian also gave an explanation for this, which was to attract Cao Wei's attention.

Now Cao Wei has stationed 100,000 troops in Hefei, commanded by Cao Xiu, and is ready to go south to attack Wu at any time. The main force of Soochow is currently moving west to guard against the Shu army. If Cao Wei goes south to Soochow at this moment, he will not be able to withstand it.

By then, even if the Eastern Wu and Shu Han stopped fighting and made peace, it would be too late for him, Sun Quan, to come back for reinforcements. By then, Soochow would not only be unable to contain Cao Wei on the eastern front, but the Wei army might also take advantage of the situation and march south to Yangzhou.

This is something Zhuge Liang cannot accept. After all, what he wants is Sun Quan to help him contain the Eastern Front, not to be a burden.

Because of this, from the perspective of Shu Han, when Zhuge Liang was planning Soochow, he also had to help Soochow calculate the pros and cons. If you want to scare Soochow, you can't really beat Soochow to death.

Therefore, it is a good choice for Zhao Yun to send troops to attract Cao Wei's attention. Once the Wei army divides its troops and rushes to support the new city of Nanyang, the remaining troops will not pose a sufficient threat.

As Guan Qiujian said, if all Zhuge Liang's plans come true. It is estimated that Sun Quan will declare his vassalship to the west soon. By then, Cao Wei will be busy making wedding clothes for Shu Han for a long time.

This is all Zhuge Liang's game, we can't let him scheme!

"In the opinion of Mr. Guanqiu, we should concentrate our forces and go south to destroy Wu Hu?"

Cao Rui nodded slightly, and then asked.

"That's right, Your Majesty!" Guan Qiujian nodded and said with a serious face.

"The Shu army is now confronting the main force of Soochow on the Yangtze River. It won't be long before they become entangled and difficult to separate."

"As there are many soldiers in Xincheng County, it is impossible for Zhao Yun to do anything with his partial army. At most, if Shangyong County is captured, he will not be able to move forward. All he needs to do is send a general to control and supervise the battle."

"The best choice now is to ignore the reaction of the Shu army and concentrate superior forces in Hefei. When Shu and Wu are entangled, send a general to attack Wu with all his strength."

"At that time, it will be difficult for Soochow to return reinforcements, and our army will definitely be defeated. If Soochow is destroyed, Western Shu will be alone, and it will be difficult to resist."

Guanqiu Jian's words were well-organized and he clearly explained the pros and cons. Cao Rui was in a happy mood for a moment and nodded to Guanqiu Jian.

"What Mr. Guanqiu said is true. Do you have any objections?"

It seems that there are still many capable people here, and they still need to be promoted. From now on, people like Xia Houlin should no longer be sent abroad. The best way to do this is to use more famous generals.

Cao Rui expressed his position, and no one among the ministers objected, so Cao Rui quickly adjusted his deployment.

First, the Xuzhou Military Region sent 20,000 troops to aid Cao Xiu, and unified them under the command of Cao Xiu, the general who conquered the east. The Yuzhou garrison arrived in Shouchun as a reserve force for the crusade against Soochow.

Together with the main force of the Huainan Military Region, the Wei army that attacked Soochow this time amounted to more than 150,000. Moreover, Cao Xiu was responsible for all of them, and Guanqiu Jian was sent to Cao Xiu as his deputy general.

As for Xincheng County, Zhuge Dan, a native of Langya, was ordered to be a general and led more than ten thousand troops to rescue it. It's best if you can get Shangyong back, but it's okay if you can't get it back.

Today, I have decided to draw the second Wu Lao Er. Even if Taishan Mansion Lord comes, I can’t guarantee what I said!

As for the right general Zhang He's rebellion and sudden appearance in the Shu Han camp, everyone tacitly agreed not to mention it. After all, this matter is not only disgraceful, but also embarrassing to tell.

But starting from this incident, Cao Rui started a new reform of the hostage system. Even if a foreign general dies in battle, his family can live permanently in Luoyang.

Anyone who tries to harm others needs to be dealt with seriously, no matter who you are!

One Zhang He surrender was enough, Cao Rui couldn't accept any more.

The game between Wei, Shu and Wu has always been very interesting, because each has its own plan, and the situation that extends from this is very complicated.

The core purpose of Zhuge Liang's eastward advance was to force Sun Quan to give in and cede territory for peace. Not only to defeat the landlords in Jiangdong, but also to defeat Soochow.

The Shu Han of today is not what it used to be, and we are not something you can manipulate at will. It's best to be honest, otherwise you won't have any room for negotiation.

As for the upward direction, it is another game of chess.

However, Cao Wei's actions were beyond Zhuge Liang's expectations, and they did not rush to aid Jing Xiang. Intelligence shows that the Wei army is still gathering towards Hefei, and it seems that they are determined to extract Sun Quan.

"Prime Minister, the pseudo-Wei did not follow your expectations. It seems that someone has given guidance." Deng Zhi, who came with the army this time, also read the intelligence and said with a frown.

"Pseudo-Wei's reaction is much faster than a few years ago. It's because I underestimated this talented person in the world." Zhuge Liang shook his head gently and sighed helplessly.

Think about it, Cao Wei controlled the Central Plains so big that there were countless talented people. No matter how clever Zhuge Liang's plan is, he can't hide it from everyone.

This was true in the Northern Expedition to Longyou, and it is also true in Sun Quan's current Eastern Expedition.

It is still the last word to have a strong army, and the so-called strategy and calculation are of little use.

"But Prime Minister, there is no need to worry. With the troops of Soochow, even if the main force is restrained in Jingzhou, the Wei army will not be able to cross the Yangtze River." Deng Zhi waved his hands and offered words of comfort.

"I hope so." Zhuge Liang shook his head, but he had already begun to make plans if Sun Quan could not withstand it.

Zhuge Liang is always good at predicting events. The main reason is that he always has the habit of preparing several sets of plans as a back-up. When emergencies occur, it is better to be prepared than unprepared.

Of course, in most cases, Zhuge Liang has used up all the backup plans, but it is still too big. This is the saddest thing.

"By the way, where is that boy You Chang? He won't cause any trouble again, right?" Zhuge Liang asked while handling military affairs and deducing the possible future battle situation.

"That's not true..." As soon as Ma Su was mentioned, Deng Zhi's expression suddenly became a little strange.

"General Ma is staying in the camp honestly these days, but he is just...very busy."

"When did Ma Su turn around and start handling military affairs? This is something I didn't expect..."

"No, no, no, he's not dealing with military affairs, he's...priestly writing."

"What?" Zhuge Liang stopped writing,

"Do priests write?"

Shu Army, in Ma Su's camp, a group of soldiers were absentmindedly surrounding Ma Su to watch the fun.

"When you look at this character, he pronounces "fen"!"

"mix?"

"fennel! There are four ways to write fennel, let me see them all clearly!"
