LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 397
"Your Majesty, this, this..."
Sima Yi took the information and looked at Cao Cao embarrassedly, with a little shame in his eyes.
Can he not be ashamed?
Just a moment ago, he was still underestimating Deng Mu and concluded that Deng Mu would not be able to break through Chengdu quickly.
In the blink of an eye, Deng Mu slapped him in the face with a miraculous quick victory.
Thinking of his self-righteousness, Sima Yi blushed.
"It took me a lot of troops and several months of fighting to barely take Hanzhong. "
"Who would have thought that the essence of Yizhou would be taken down by Liu Bei so easily. "
"It seems that the biggest beneficiary of this southern expedition is still the big-eared thief. "
Cao Cao sighed helplessly, the previous spring breeze was proud, but now it is naturally gone.
Sima Yi was unwilling in his heart, and after turning his eyes a few times, he was busy again:
"Your Majesty, it is not yet known to whom Yizhou belongs. "
"The minister thought that His Majesty should immediately go south and take the Sword Pavilion first. "
"As long as we win the Sword Pavilion and we control the throat of Yizhou, we will be able to occupy a condescending advantage over Chengdu. "
"In the meantime, we still have hope of repelling Guan Yu and Deng Mu, snatching back Chengdu from them again, and taking the entire Yizhou!"
Sima Yi's words were like lighting a lamp in Cao Cao's gloomy heart.
Cao Cao, who was originally gloomy and helpless, immediately reinvigorated his spirits.
"Zhong Da is right, the Sword Pavilion has not been snatched by Guan Yu yet. "
"As long as I win the Sword Pavilion, I still have hope of taking Chengdu!"
Cao Cao's spirits were greatly lifted, and as soon as he jumped up, he was about to order troops to go south.
The moment he spoke, he saw Jia Xu brushing his white hair, his brows furrowed slightly, as if he had something to say.
"Wenhe, Zhongda's strategy, don't you agree?"
Cao Cao put away his impulse and asked hurriedly.
Jia Xu coughed dryly a few times and said unhurriedly:
"The capture of the Sword Pavilion is of course a geographical advantage for Guan Yu, allowing us to regain the opportunity to capture Chengdu. "
"It's just that Zhang Ren led 20,000 Shu troops to guard the Sword Pavilion, did Your Majesty ever think that we could easily take it?"
As soon as this statement came out.
Cao Cao calmed down and couldn't help frowning.
The Sword Pavilion is not an empty city.
Zhang Ren is known as the first general in Shuzhong.
He also has 20,000 Shu troops in his hands.
The Sword Pavilion is also a natural risk, known as a husband, and it is not open!
To tell the truth, Mo said that all his 70,000 soldiers and horses went south, and even if a million troops attacked, they might not be able to take it.
After a long time, Guan Yu led the Han army north to reach the Sword Pavilion, and it is really unknown who the Sword Pavilion will get in the end.
"Then according to Wen He's opinion, how can this Sword Pavilion be won?"
Cao Cao's eyes for help, Baba looked at Jia Xu.
After Jia Xu groaned for a while, he said slowly:
"The minister heard that Zhang Ren was a person who was strong and loyal, and he was loyal to Liu Zhang. "
Now that Liu Zhang's father and son are said to have perished at the hands of the Han army, Zhang Ren must hate Liu Bei to the core. "
"Your Majesty might as well lead the army south, and send an envoy to the Sword Pavilion on the other hand to say that Zhang Ren will be demoted. "
"If you succeed, not only can you go down to the Sword Pavilion without a fight, but you can also get a fierce general and 20,000 elite soldiers, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?"
Persuade Zhang Ren!
Hearing these four words, Cao Cao was refreshed, and his confidence was rekindled in his eyes.
"Well, Wen He's reasonable, reasonable. "
"Order Mao Jue, quickly take my edict and go to the Sword Pavilion to say that Zhang Ren will be demoted!"
Cao Cao immediately handed down the order. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
So Mao Jue took the edict of appeasement, went south under the starry night, and went straight to the Sword Pavilion.
Cao Cao did not dare to delay, so he ordered Cao Zhen Sima Yi and others to stay in Nanzheng, and he led a large army out of Yangping Pass to the south the next day and rushed to the direction of Sword Pavilion.
...
Sword Pavilion.
The city is full of sorrows.
Zhang Renzheng was wearing linen and filial piety, burst into tears, and sacrificed Liu Zhang in the direction of Chengdu.
"~ Duke Shu, Duke Shu!"
"Why don't you summon your ministers to lead the Sword Pavilion Legion south, but reuse Yan Yan's old pawn. "
"If there are ministers, Chengdu Yan will fall, and you will be harmed by Liu Bei. "
Zhang Ren was crying bitterly, full of indignation and sadness.
"Ahem, General Zhang. "
"It is rumored that it was the eldest prince who mutinied and seized power, and killed the Duke of Shu when he was defeated and fled. "
"In this way, the Duke of Shu should have died at the hands of the eldest prince, not by Liu Bei. "
Wu Lan beside him reminded.
Zhang Ren glared at him and scolded:
"Nonsense, how could the eldest prince do the act of killing his father!"
"That must be released by Guan (Wang Wang's) Yu to slander and slander the eldest prince. "
"Shu Gong must have been killed by Guan Yu, and this account will naturally be counted on Guan Yu's head!"
Wu Lan was stunned, so she could only close her mouth in a sneer.
"Now Chengdu has been lost, and the father and son of Shu have also died. "
"Cao Cao has taken Hanzhong, and the army is coming towards my Sword Pavilion. "
"Guan Yu's Han army is also heading north, and they are also coming to our Sword Pavilion. "
"We have now become a lone army, caught between Cao and Liu. "
"General Zhang, you have to quickly come up with an idea and find a way out for the brothers~~"
Lei Tong on the side reminded again.
Zhang Ren clenched his fists and fell into deep thought.
