Chapter 3262 If you have difficulties, it means everyone is united
Sima Yi, who was in Pubanjin, Hedong, had a limited degree of independent military power. His limit lies in the fact that the troops under him could call for a certain amount of reinforcements when necessary.
Sima Yi felt that there was no need to call for reinforcements now, because his strategic purpose was very simple.
He wanted to do his best to harass the Cao army's front and restrain the troops of his classmates.
Not a head-on battle.
Regardless of whether there are risks or any problems in this matter, Sima Yi knew one thing that this war between Fei Cao could only win.
If Cao Cao eventually wins, then Fei Qian is not the only one who is unlucky.
At present, Cao Cao's main target is concentrated in the north, so Sima Yi has the opportunity to launch a sneak attack on the flanks.
He also knew that there was a great risk in this way. He had to figure out where the main force of the Cao army's central army was, so that he would not have wanted to get a bargain, but ended up hitting the steel plate.
Therefore, when Sima Yi dispatched Hao Zhao, he did not send much troops. On the one hand, it was easier to be exposed if there were too many people. On the other hand, Sima Yi did not dare to invest too many troops before the information was confirmed...
After Hao Zhao brought back the survivor, Sima Yi confirmed that the main force of the Cao army had moved north from the Zhongtiaoshan camp, so these Cao army on the flank could not help but relax...
This is a good thing, he saw the fighter plane.
If the main force of Cao's army is still near Zhongtiao Mountain, for Sima Yi, no matter what big moves he does, it will be unsuitable. After all, Sima Yi has not many people at the moment, and every loss means that his subordinates' strength will be weakened.
"Do you want to ask the lord for help?"
Hao Zhao suggested.
Sima Yi thought for a moment and shook his head. Not to mention whether he could get a supplement immediately if he asked for help. Just say that if Cao Cao knew that he had a lot of troops here, he would inevitably increase his defense here, which would be detrimental to Sima Yi's sneak attack plan.
As long as Sima Yi could tear a hole, it was possible to cut off Lao Cao's food route, and then force Cao's army to revive, or provide reinforcements from Tongguan. This was equivalent to his small amount of troops directly disrupting Cao's army's layout in Hedong and Heluo area, creating better opportunities for the final victory of the Cavalry Feiqian.
Therefore, Sima Yi’s strategic purpose is not to conquer the city, but only the word “disturbance”.
If you disrupt the other party’s layout, it is equivalent to taking the initiative.
Well, that's right, it's just a stick to stir...
...
...
Cao's Central Army Camp.
Mao Jie rushed forward and bowed to Cao Cao and said, "Lord, I've found it!"
Cao Cao turned his head slightly and signaled to the map, "Sign it!"
Mao Jie went forward and went a little closer to Zhang Yangchi on the map.
"The Sima family of the bandit army is probably in this position, with more than a thousand cavalrymen, not all of them are elite soldiers, but at least they are cavalrymen who have been trained and skilled in riding..."
Afterwards, Mao Jie pointed his finger and said again: "There was originally a ferry guard at Pubanjin, and there were about 800 people here."
Cao Cao pondered for a long time and said slowly: "If this thief is not eliminated, it will be a thorn on his back."
At present, Cao Cao has to make many plans.
What should I do if Fei Qian attacks? What should I attack if I don’t attack?
What should I do if something goes wrong with Shangdang?
as well as……
The land of Shandong...
Cao Cao has received a lot of news here one after another.
There is good news, and of course there is bad news, and overall, there is much more bad news in the rear than the good news on the front line.
During the days when Cao Cao left Shandong, many people had already jumped out, stirring up openly or secretly.
Cao Cao had sent Cheng Yu back and was ready to put out a fire at any time.
Cheng Yu is quite bad. After Cheng Yu makes a move first, Cao Cao can pretend to be "Oh, I just knew about this" when he goes around...
So now Cao Cao's head hurts and his butt is on fire.
If Sima Yi had an injection on his waist, he wouldn't have to live...
In terms of cavalry tactics, Cao Cao didn't have much expertise.
Even Cao Cao himself dared not say that he could command the cavalry like an arm, so using a cavalry to control the cavalry is undoubtedly a short attack. Cao Cao would rather pull the people from the cavalry side into the familiar rhythm of the battlefield.
Moreover, there were not many war horses in Cao's army, and they were all used on the blade, so they could not move away tightly.
But this does not mean that Cao Cao can only be beaten passively.
Cao Cao guessed what Sima Yi wanted to do. After all, if he was in Sima Yi's position, he would have made actions similar to Sima Yi to restrain the opponent's troops.
Therefore, if Sima Yi falls into the trap, he must have troops that really allow him to "restrain"...
Cao Cao looked up at Mao Jie.
Mao Jie was also mentally prepared and bowed and said, "I wish to share my worries for the Lord!"
Cao Cao nodded, "You have this heart, and I am very pleased. However, you are not good at cavalry warfare... People come, go and invite the captain of the cavalry... No, go and invite the general to come!"
This is the site upgrade.
"He is good at cavalry..." Cao Cao said to Mao Jie again, "If Sima's little thief wants to attack my flanks... he will probably choose this position..."
...
...
Jizhou, Yecheng.
Chen Qun has ordered all counties to strictly garrison, and must not trust any orders, nor can he leave the garrison without authorization.
This is the best way he can think of.
In Chen Qun's feeling, Wei Yan was like a lice in his hair, crawling around, biting his left and sucking his right, so that he would not die on the spot, but he felt very uncomfortable. He didn't think that the little infantry under Wei Yan could capture Yecheng, but he caused turmoil in Jizhou.
If you send someone to catch it, it really has to be like a comb. Only by combing it finely can you catch Wei Yan pretending to be a soldier rank in Cao's army...
Damn, Chen Qun thought of this, and a fire of namelessness rose in his heart.
Why did Wei Yan pretend to be Cao Jun? He is so skillful in his business?
Isn’t it true that a real man will not change his name or his surname?
When Wei Yan turned the whole thing to zero, Chen Qun was numb.
There is no problem with Chen Qun's key garrison, but in addition to the key garrison, more people must be dispatched to investigate...
The network inspection is inefficient in the absence of instant messaging tools. Even the inspection teams are not sure whether other queues have checked the same place. It is possible that all queues have been checked in a certain place but no one has gone to another place.
Especially for some big investors, they need to check carefully.
The undisturbed big-name investors complained.
Chen Qun also had a headache.
Unless Chen Qun leaves Yecheng, he personally commands these investigation teams.
But Chen Qun cannot do without it.
He must stay in Yecheng and protect Cao Pi, otherwise if Cao Pi has any problems, his Chen family will be buried with him.
In today's current situation, the manor system of the gentry gentry in Jizhou has been greatly damaged...
The city can be locked in four doors, but what about the manor outside the city?
The owner of the manor can indeed build a fort and a large country, and protect the family and some servants and tenants within the walls. However, no matter which owner of the manor is, it is impossible to build a magnificent city wall around all his land. At most, it is already amazing to build a circle of fences. Some owners of the manor can only set up signs at the intersection to show the difference.
Of course, there are some private armed forces in these manors, such as servants guarding the hospital, but the gap between these people and the soldiers under Wei Yan is too big. The professional and part-time jobs are still a bit different.
The contradiction is here...
The manor owner valued his land too much. Even if Chen Qun persuaded them to live in Yecheng for a while and wait for the danger to pass before going back, most manor landlords were unwilling to do so. They would rather stay in their own manors. Even if the defense system of these manors and forts was much worse than that of the city.
The last gentry gentry who suffered a loss still cannot let these people be alert.
Sometimes it’s not that Cao’s army is unwilling to protect them, but it’s really powerless.
The front line also needs people, but the back line is not stable now. The soldiers, horses, money and food are not falling from the sky. They are automatically generated in the granaries of towns anytime and anywhere. It is not easy to draw out soldiers with key defenses. How can we send more people to the countryside to clear out those scattered Wei Yan teams?
But if Wei Yan's team is allowed to work in Jizhou for too long, even if Wei Yan evacuates in the future, it will inevitably make the Jizhou masters hold a grudge. These Jizhou masters may not hate the enemy Wei Yan, but they will definitely hate Chen Qun who "does not come to rescue"...
So Chen Qun was unwilling to offend these gentry and gentry too much. He was more or less hesitant whether he should draw some soldiers guarding the city around Yecheng, at least sort out these places around Yecheng and remove Wei Yan's team.
Perhaps, three thousand soldiers can still get together?
But who should be asked to lead the troops?
...
...
Xu County.
Cui Yan also has a mansion in Xu County. He should have led his troops north, but it was delayed because of some things.
Cui Yan sat in the hall in plain clothes, looking at his son Cui Qin walking back from the outside, with a plain expression and seemed a little unhappy.
"My father..." Cui Qin lowered his head.
Cui Yan looked at Cui Qin coldly and stopped talking for a while.
Cui Qin felt a little sweaty on his head.
"You have grown up, have you made your own decision?" Cui Yan said to Cui Qin, "Do you know when it is now?"
Cui Qin lowered his head and said, "My father... Your Majesty, Your Majesty personally asked the child about his knowledge, that is... well, um..."
Cui Yan stared at Cui Qin, "I'm asking if you know when it's now?"
Cui Yan didn't care what official positions his child had obtained, because he knew that these official positions were all empty, just like the moon in the flower well in the water. It looked good, but it didn't have any use for birds.
In Jizhou and Yuzhou, the entire Shandong area is not about official positions, but about territory and connections.
If you don’t have your own territory or connections, even if you have an official position, you will be quickly taken down...
Cui Qin thought it was his knowledge that the emperor could appreciate, but he didn't know that the emperor really thought he was good at learning?
『…』 Cui Qin was silent. Obviously he understood in his heart, but he didn't want to continue to stay behind Cui Yan. He wanted to stand up and get his own title, not just "Cheng Biejia's son".
"You shouldn't have taken the initiative to see Your Majesty..." Cui Yan didn't expect that as soon as he arrived in Xu County, he encountered such a thing. He originally thought that the naughty children were from other people's families, but he didn't expect that his own children also turned into a bear. This made Cui Yan very sad and a headache.
"The boy knew his mistake." Cui Qin lowered his head and said, "But Your Majesty invites you to me with great affection..."
『Is that true?』 Cui Yan said in a deep voice, 『You can refuse. If the bus is not enough, you will also have a reputation for being a virtuous person."
Cui Qin was stunned and thought for a moment and said, "My father...but Your Majesty...If my father doesn't want to, the child... can also submit a letter to resign..."
Cui Yan looked at Cui Qin for a long time, and finally sighed and said, "Since Your Majesty has given me a gift, how can you let me shirk it? Just do your best. If... If you encounter any crisis in the future... don't take any risk, don't fall into the Cui family's reputation..."
Cui Qin was shocked, "Master Father?"
'A companionship is a companionship tiger.' Cui Yan sighed and said, 'You thought you had obtained an official position, but you didn't know that you had swallowed the bait... Now you can only be careful with your words and actions... be careful by yourself!'
"Sir, Father!" Cui Qin fell to the ground.
"Go and rest." Cui Yan waved his hand, "Don't let the Cui family's reputation fall into the Qing Dynasty."
Cui Qin had no choice but to salute respectfully and slowly retreated.
Cui Yan watched him leave, and his eyes were filled with contemplation.
What is Emperor Liu Xie doing?
He actually put his claws on his son?
Or maybe it’s not just his son, but also the children of other officials in Xu County?
This is really...
interesting.
However, even if Cui Qin jumped in, it made Cui Yan feel unhappy. However, he didn't have much time and energy to deal with this matter now, because Cao Pi, who was in Yecheng, Jizhou, had already urged him three times a day to lead his troops to encircle and suppress the Wei Yan team that was invaded in Jizhou, and it would be difficult for him to continue to delay...
Well, things are everywhere, like being trapped in quicksand. Even if you know what to do, you can't help it.
Originally, Cui Yan thought that letting his son leave Yecheng and come to Xu County was a good choice, but now it seems that the world is full of troubles, where is the real place to live?
...
...
Xiangyang.
After receiving the news of the great change in Jiangling, Cao Ren hurried back to Xiangyang and summoned Cai Mao and other local Jingzhou natives to calm the hearts of the people.
To be honest, Cao Ren and Cai Mao didn't get along well.
Although Cai Mao was not as teased by Zhou Yu in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, after Cai Mao joined Cao Cao's command, he did not get the territory and population he wanted. Instead, because Cao's family kept drawing blood from Jingzhou, Jingzhou seemed very depressed as a whole.
Moreover, the Cao family has been deliberately or unintentionally guarding against the Cai family. Although they are very polite on the surface and have also been granted the title of Cai Mao, the actual military power is not affected at all. They would rather use Wenpin than let Cai Mao lead the army.
Mrs. Niu is not a problem, but she is called Xiao Tiantian. Now that she saw something wrong in Jiangling, her attitude of urgently summoning her will naturally make Cai Mao feel uncomfortable. Therefore, after Cai Mao met Cao Ren, she still had the etiquette she should have, but she was as if she had played with her two flying all night last night, and she was depressed and wandered around the sky.
『Hmm, cough!』
Cao Ren looked around and his eyes fell heavily on Cai Mao, and then he said in a deep voice, "I have received the trust of the emperor, inherited the high hopes of the prime minister, pacified Jingzhou, treated the scholars with sincerity, and nurtured the people. Now, the Sun family in Jiangdong who is betrayed the alliance and killed the generals and seized our Jiangling, which is a great crime!"
"In the past, a child from Jiangdong asked for Xiangyang, and spoke sincerely, willing to work together to fight against Fei and help each other to help each other. At that time, on the high platform, he swore blood and swore to alliance, but his words were still in his ears! Unexpectedly, the rats in Jiangdong took advantage of my unpreparedness and sent troops to attack Jiangling, kill our military academy, and harm our people! I felt so heartbroken when I heard it!"
"The Sun family in Jiangdong does not want to serve the country, but knows that they are greedy and greedy, which is really despicable and shameless! Jiangling is a major city in the country. I trust the heart of my heart and entrusted Jiangdong to temporarily stay. I originally hope that Jiangdong can guard it with loyalty and benevolence. Unexpectedly, the thief of Jiangdong has ulterior motives and even raises up to seize my city and kill my good generals. His feelings are hateful and his actions are punished!"
"I am now expressing my congratulations to the emperor and swear to fight south to expedite Jiangling to correct the world's momentum! I will surely bring Sun's rebellion to justice to comfort Jiangling's soldiers and people's spirits in heaven!"
Cao Ren shouted a few high-profile words, and saw that Cai Mao and others were still lowering their heads and not getting into the salt, they couldn't help but feel the nameless fire in their hearts. They snorted coldly and said, "At this time of crisis, you should be united and united to fight difficulties together! In the past, the people were in trouble. Is it because of the loss of this sincere heart that caused great chaos in Jingzhou?"
"It was said in ancient times, "The tree that is embraced with is grown in a thin piece of hair; the nine-story platform starts from the buried soil." If you all here today can give up your ego and achieve great achievements, why worry about the loss of Jiangling and the unrest of Jingzhou?"
Cao Ren was indeed annoyed.
The main reason is that Jingzhou is alone and has to attack Wuguan and support Hanzhong. Now it has been stabbed by Jiangdong again, and Jingzhou has their own hearts and minds. It is said that Cao Ren had time and means to fight and support one faction before, but now, he is like supporting a house with leaks everywhere, and it is about to collapse.
If chanting slogans can defeat the enemy, then Cao Ren simply asked a group of civil servants to stand at the top of the city and shout slogans...
In the end, you still have to have a big stick in your hand.
This sneak attack in Jiangdong really caught Cao Ren off guard.
He did expect Jiangdong to tear up the covenant, but he didn't expect Jiangdong to be so soon!
Cao Ren originally thought that if Jiangdong could not last for two or three years, it would be fine if he could last for at least one year!
result……
And the key is that Cao Ren's attacks in both Wuguan and Hanzhong were not smooth!
Cao Ren also knew that it was indeed difficult to fight Wuguan and Hanzhong, but the change is too embarrassing now. The attack failed to achieve the effect, and his chrysanthemum was stabbed by his allies!
Cao Ren thought about it all over and over again, but now he could only draw some blood from the natives of Jingzhou.
First, Cao Cao was fighting fiercely in Heluo and Heluo, and there were no extra soldiers to support the deployment. Even if there were any, he would have detoured from Heluo to Jingzhou, and all the dishes were cold.
On the other hand, Jizhou is now attacked by Wei Yan, and the land of Yanzhou and Yuzhou is also in a panic. In addition, the guys in Qingzhou and Xuzhou are also a little unstable, so the soldiers and horses around Xu County cannot move around.
Without foreign aid, we can only mobilize the fellow villagers in Jingzhou to expand domestic demand...
