Chapter 583 Liangzhou Army decisive battle in Jiangxia (10)
But since Cao Cao was able to bring him 10,000 people to Jiangxia, it is enough to show that he valued Guo Huai much. Yes, 10,000 people can be said to be the first to run away, but Guo Huai is not. This is right. Not only is it not, but it also shows that Cao Cao valued him, that's it. Indeed, although the soldiers are not unimportant, Cao Cao has no idea, but compared with some of his own generals, those 10,000 people are really not as important as his own generals. Of course, the third-rate level
Even if it is not enough, it must be a second-rate. Although there are fewer third-rate generals than soldiers, this is certain, but Cao Cao does not value it so much. Yes, this third-rate general is also an important part. This is true, but whether it is one side, the Liangzhou Army, the Jiangdong Army, the real mainstay, it must be a second-rate general. This is true. After all,
After all, the generals of the ranks are a minority, and this is the fundamental one. Anyone who is a lord wants more generals on their own. Even if they are second-rate generals, they still have more hopes. Even if they are third-rate, they will have more than others. That is better. But obviously, this is not that easy, not impossible at all, but it is indeed too difficult, this is really.
So it is impossible for Cao Cao not to value Guo Huai. He is not only a second-rate general, but more importantly, he is not that old, so... this is very important. If Guo Huai is very old, then Cao Cao would not say that he is like this now. So this is fundamental. Guo Huai has enough skills and may also grow his skills in the future. This is very likely. What's more important is that he is not old. Indeed, Cao Cao attaches importance to it. How old are Xiahou Yuan and the others? Xiahou Yuan is over forty years old?
He is only a few years younger than Cao Cao. Xu Huang's words are also forty, and Le Jin and Li Dian's words are not a few years younger than Xu Huang. It can be said that they are similar in age and not much different, and they are both ten years older than Guo Huai, and even a little more. So this is the case of these four people. Even the youngest ones are ten years older than Guo Huai. This is really, they
All are old, Guo Huai is younger than them in comparison. So this is really true. Cao Cao values him. After all, he is so old. To be honest, Cao Cao feels that his health is getting worse and worse in recent years, so he is with himself.
To be honest, if you have been in the fifteen or sixteen years, you may be able to support it. If you have more, it will probably be a failure. To be honest, Cao Cao knows
If you don’t have a headache, you can live a few more years, but now, fifteen years will be almost done. Now it’s already 207 AD. Cao Cao feels that he can live in fifteen years and that he can see the unification of the world at that time, but it’s probably not that he unified the world. It’s probably Ma Chao. It’s not that Cao Cao has no confidence, but that the reality of the present does not give him much confidence. Compared with others, there is still a distance. Yes, Cao Cao doesn’t admit it, and he doesn’t want to admit it in his heart.
It's really that way, so it's still the same thing. If you want to or not, it's all the same in the end. The facts are right in front of you. Whether you admit it or not, it's the same in the end. Cao Cao also wants his side to win in the end, but the chance is not the greatest, at least now, it's the case. But he has never given up. This must be, after all, his side still has a chance, no matter how it is.
It was their Liangzhou army that was unified by one side. Sun Ce’s Jiangdong army did not underestimate them. It was true that they were not good enough, but they were not good enough. But the Liangzhou army and our side had both strength, that’s it. Others, you say that the Jiangdong army is so big and there are only so many people. To be honest, it is not enough to compete with our own and Liangzhou army. If we say that our side does not unite with them, they will have been destroyed long ago, really. If we say that our side and the Liangzhou army are united, then it’s not too easy to destroy the Jiangdong army.
Really. And this is what Sun Ce is most unwilling to see the most. How could he never want to be destroyed? So although Sun Ce is not holding the Yanzhou Army's thigh, in Ma Chao's opinion, it is actually that way, and there is no big difference. Maybe he is not afraid of the Yanzhou Army, but he is definitely afraid that the Liangzhou Army and the Yanzhou Army will join forces to deal with the Jiangdong Army, and then they will be destroyed. So Sun Ce must be worried, but seeing the Liangzhou Army being strong, he is worried less and less. At least this
One thing is that they have always had the basis for their cooperation between the Jiangdong Army and the Yanzhou Army. Cao Cao even understood what it means to lose his lips and cold teeth. If Cao Cao was the strongest of the Yanzhou Army, then to be honest, he wanted to destroy his side. They and the Liangzhou Army destroyed their side. But the reality is not like that, so... If Yanzhou Army is the strongest of the Yanzhou Army, then they would not feel it.
What does it take to lose your lips and teeth? Cao Cao wanted to destroy it. Sun Ce knows very well. If that is the case, it will be that his side and the Liangzhou army will jointly deal with their Yanzhou army, but the Liangzhou army will not jointly destroy it with the Yanzhou army. This is the fact. Sun Ce has many reasons to believe this. Because by then, the Liangzhou army will lose your lips and teeth, and that's it. They and the Yanzhou army will be the Yanzhou army.
So, at the beginning, Sun Ce had a lot of big worries, and it was normal to think about it, but then he gradually changed a lot, almost not thinking about anything, at least he didn't want the Liangzhou Army and the Yanzhou Army to destroy oneself. This foundation is not yet, only the basis for the alliance between one and the Yanzhou Army, and no foundation for the alliance between the Liangzhou Army and the Yanzhou Army. If that's the case, even if the Yanzhou Army sits and watches its own side be destroyed by the Liangzhou Army, then the Liangzhou Army will destroy them.
It's been a few years, so Cao Cao would never let his side do that. This is really true. Therefore, it's not like this now, Sun Ce understands it, and they all understand. Xiahou Yuan and Guo Huai talked for nearly two hours before they went to rest. This has been quite a long time. Obviously, they all want to know the more specific situation of the Liangzhou army, and now they still let
They all learned a lot. So even if they had a little late rest, they actually thought it was worth it. Indeed, it was too worth it. Or, they had dealt with the Liangzhou army more times than Guo Huai, but now in Jiangxia, they came early, and a few of them came later, so many things have to be heard from others. Is this a good idea?
Wrong. Guo Huai asked the soldiers to take Xiahou Yuan and the others to rest for them. He finally left the living room and went back to rest. From tomorrow on, there was no need to defend the city for the time being, but he still had to be in the city. Although he didn't want to, he had no choice. Xiahou Yuan is now the commander, but he was not, so he had the final say. He did not let him go out of the city to fight the Liangzhou army, but he was in the city, and he had to obey the orders and nothing to say. For the others, then
If you wait for your side and Liangzhou army, who will win in the end, then this will have a huge impact on your side. Indeed, Guo Huai knew very well that if your side wins, then all the wars will basically have nothing to do with him. At that time, Xiahou Yuan, Xu Huang, Le Jin and Li Dian will join forces to other county towns to capture other counties in Jiangxia. But he is still going to be in
There is nothing to say about Fengxian County, this is my own situation. If my side loses, then it is very likely that I will come up to defend the city and resist the Liangzhou army. As for how long it can last, I don’t know, but 80% of my own will go up, that’s it. But to be honest, although it’s true that I have participated, I would rather hope that my side will win all the way. Without my own business, I still have nothing to do in Fengxian County and don’t want my side to lose. That’s really bad.
So for Guo Huai, he would rather have nothing to do than win, rather than win by his side, than win by their Liangzhou army in the end. That's it. After all, if he has nothing to do for the moment, it doesn't matter. If he has nothing to do, that's not without such things. Now that his army has arrived, he will do nothing immediately, so it's really nothing. But if he really loses, it's really the worst result. I think it's not wrong at all, indeed.
So Guo Huai would never want to defeat the Yanzhou army. This is really nothing. After all, the interests of his own are the foundation, and his own is incomparable to his own. That's it. For Guo Huai, if his own interests are gone, then how can he talk about his own? Indeed, it's just like that. To be honest, that's what he doesn't want to see the most.
This is indeed true. Guo Huai didn't think so much about the rest. For him, there is nothing more important than his own victory. Indeed, he can only continue to guard the country in Zhengxian, watching his army fight against the Liangzhou army. In this way, although he doesn't want anything, he is indeed able to win, so it's better than anything else.
That's it. And there was nothing to say all night. Xiahou Yuan and the others rested for a night and fed together in the morning. After that, the four of them left Feng County and Guo Huai sent them out of the city. After all, the four of them were better than themselves in their official positions and qualifications, so Guo Huai must do this. This is not that he flattered, but he really needed to do this. If he was not polite to the people, then he would definitely have to get into evil people in the end. At least Xiahou Yuan and Le Jin and the others would definitely offend. This is indeed.
Today we are going to fight against the Liangzhou army. Xiahou Yuan and the others have already adjusted their status, but they are just waiting to fight against the Liangzhou army. After Guo Huai, they learned a lot of the situation of the Liangzhou army at this time, which is definitely much more than Ma Chao who knows them. This is true. So they have Guo Huai here, so they know a lot more, much better than Ma Chao.
Shaoxiahou Yuan and his friends came to Fengxian County, and Ma Chao didn't know more specific things. At most, they just knew how many people they came, how many generals they had, who they were, and nothing else. For example, the Liangzhou Army didn't know how much food and grass there were in the army. Of course, in order to ensure the cost of the 80,000 troops, Cao Cao deliberately sent people to Jiangxia in Runan, and the grain route was in the north.
Not next to Ma Chao... So he wanted to cut off the food route. Although this is not impossible at all, it is really too difficult and it is good at all. However, Ma Chao probably didn't have that idea. He still defeated the Yanzhou army on the battlefield. This is what will make them retreat firmly in the end. So Ma Chao still wanted to repel the Yanzhou army head-on, not others. Don't look at the fact that there is no top strategist in the Yanzhou army now, but Xiahou Yuan, Xu Huang, and even
Li Dian, it wasn't for nothing, but Le Jin wasn't very smart. The other three, especially Guo Huai, so if one Guo Jia said, it might not be possible for them to fall into the trap. Really, he knew this. After all, Guo Jia was alone in dealing with Xiahou Yuan, Xu Huang, Li Dian and Guo Huai, and Ma Chao felt that there was no big advantage, even if Le Jin could be ignored.
One, but Ma Chao didn’t have much confidence, this is. So before, Pang Tong, a Jiangdong Army, didn’t think he had anything to do. Now, Ma Chao felt that they would not fall into the trap of Xiahou Yuan and others, and Guo Jia might not have any good plans. If you have it, it would be different. If not, it would not work fundamentally, and there is no need to say more about this.
At this time, Ma Chao and the others were also waiting for the Yanzhou army to come to fight, which is certain. Although they were stationed not far from their side, Xiahou Yuan had to bring his troops here before they could fight. After all, there were 80,000 troops on the other side, and less than 60,000 troops on their side were still missing. Yes, when they faced the Jiangdong Army before, they also had fewer troops on their side, that's true. To be honest, the combat power of the Jiangdong Army was relatively stronger than that of the Yanzhou Army. This latter was a bit stronger. Ma Chao had naturally known that when he had been dealing with them for a long time.
It is still the same. Compared with the Jiangdong Army, Yanzhou Army is comparable to the Jiangdong Army, which is equivalent to the Yanzhou Army. It is almost the same. It is more respectful to the Jiangdong Army. Indeed, except for the strong naval army, the people on the land are still not as good as those on the land and the Yanzhou Army. This is a bit good. At this time, Xiahou Yuan and the other four had already returned to their Yanzhou Army's camp outside of Feng County.
They were all in the central army's tent. For them, it doesn't matter if they were not in the camp this afternoon and night. After all, even the soldiers of Yanzhou soldiers knew that their commander and general would definitely have to enter the city before.
