?Just like Cao Cao would not be frightened by Zhao Gang's words and retreated from Xiangyang, the Tianyi army would not be retreating to Fangling because Cao Cao threatened to go to full war with Jin State.--.

Sometimes the purpose of quarrels is just to gain time and get buffering. Lu Xun had time to go with Cheng Yu, because it took time for some heavy equipment carried by Tian Yijun to arrive on the battlefield and assemble it; Cheng Yu risked the danger and endured the "play" of the two younger generations of Zhao Gang and Lu Xun to be patiently "played" by the Cao army, in order to give Cao army time to assemble and arrange.

The meeting, which was destined to be unable to reach a consensus from the beginning, ended in a state of neither salt nor light, Tian Yijun and Caojun made a gesture of gestures.

Liu Biao, who could rest assured to stand at the top of Xiangyang City to see the scenery, held the "Secret Mile Eye" handed over by Lu Meng, looked into the wilderness west of Xiangyang, and said, "Zi Ming, I have never heard of the name of Tianyi Army before. Can they really drive Cao Cao back to Xuchang with just 30,000 numbers!"

Although Lu Meng had the same doubts in his heart, in order to reassure Liu Biao, he said, "Don't worry, Lord Zhou Mu, although the Tianyi Army has never shown its power in front of the world, this army is a direct unit in front of the King of Pingxi. Once it takes action, it will definitely surprise people!"

Liu Biao was still a little worried and reminded Lu Meng: "According to my observation, the Tianyi Army is mainly infantry, but Cao Cao went south this time with a tiger and leopard cavalry of more than 10,000 people, led by his clan brother Cao Chun. If the two armies faced each other, Cao Cao used the tiger and leopard cavalry to rush forward, but he didn't know where the Tianyi Army would resist!"

Lu Meng sighed in his heart that Liu Biao's observation was indeed careful. This was exactly what he was most worried about. The tiger and leopard cavalry brought by Cao Cao to the south naturally could not play a role when siegeing the city. However, if it was on the empty plain, it had an unstoppable attack power. The Tianyi Army was originally a new force. How could it resist the tiger and leopard cavalry led by Cao Chun when the number of people was not at all superior.

Thinking of this, Lu Meng made up his mind and said to Liu Biao: "Mr. The Lord of the State Council is reasonable. In order to reduce the pressure on the Tianyi Army, I suggest that when the two armies go to war, Su Fei and Jiang Xu will lead two thousand iron guards to rush out of the city to attack Cao's army, disrupt Cao Cao's camp, and at the same time create opportunities for Huo Jun's troops to enter the city smoothly!"

Liu Biao said with some distress: "Two thousand iron guards are just a drop in the bucket, how can we turn the situation around!"

Lu Meng was defeated by Liu Biao's "rural bully" style, so he had to settle for the second best. He said: "Since that's the case, Lord Zhou Mu might as well send an urgent report to Jiangxia's Wenpin General, and asked him to quickly lead a 40,000 army back to Xiangyang. In this way, there will be 40,000 troops east, south and west of Xiangyang, 20,000 troops respectively. If we add nearly 20,000 soldiers in the city, we will have 30,000 more troops than Cao Cao in terms of force. In this way, we will definitely retreat Cao Cao!"

Liu Biao immediately asked Lu Meng: "If Wenpin was asked to return to Xiangyang, wouldn't it be like giving up Jiang Xia!"

Lu Meng replied: "Why should Lord Zhou Mu worry that Jiang Xia will fall into the hands of others? Since the King of Pingxi has sent Tianyi Army to support Jingzhou, who dares to take advantage of the situation and occupy Jiangxia, and in the future, he will face the ruthless attack from the Xuzhou army. Jiangxia will be taken back sooner or later. Xiangyang is the center of Jingzhou. As long as we strive to ensure that Xiangyang is not lost, our foundation will still exist!"

Although Liu Biao felt a little reluctant, he thought that Lu Meng's words made sense, so he immediately got off the city and sent a quick report to Wen Pin, who was stationed in Jiangxia, and ordered him to raise all Jiangxia's troops back to Xiangyang, which was equivalent to giving up Jiangxia temporarily.

Liu Biao hid in Xiangyang City and was busy dispatching troops. Cao Cao, who surrounded Xiangyang, also attached great importance to the Tianyi Army, who had just arrived. Although the Tianyi Army who had arrived outside Xiangyang had only 30,000 soldiers, relying on Long Ashan as the back, he set up a very solid camp twenty miles west of Xiangyang City, directly posing a threat to Cao's army.

Cao Cao has now learned that the Eastern Route Army that Yizhou attacked Jingzhou urgently retreated westward. Although Chengdu has not sent anyone to explain it to him, Cao Cao knew that if Yizhou had not encountered a very important and urgent threat, Sima Yi would not have transferred the Eastern Route Army back to Yizhou when he was about to seize the southern county of Jingzhou.

In order to attack Jingzhou, Yizhou had already paid 100,000 casualties in Yiling, but he returned in vain. Even Cao Cao, who had previously worried that Yizhou would divide up too many territory, felt very painful and a pity when he remembered this.

Since the danger of Yiling has been lifted, it is impossible to rule out that Huang Zhong led the remnants back to Xiangyang; similarly, Liu Biao still has a large army in Changsha and Jiangxia. If he cannot capture Xiangyang in a short time, the troops returning to Xiangyang from Changsha and Xixia to join forces with the Tianyi army, it will not be the problem of Cao Cao's attack on Xiangyang, but several large armies will encircle Cao Cao under the city of Xiangyang.

Seeing the current situation clearly, Cao Cao sent a large number of sentry probes to various directions outside Xiangyang, closely following threats from Jiangxia, Changsha and Yiling. On the other hand, he contacted Huang Zu, who had already defected, and asked him to continue to ambush somewhere. Once Jiangxia's abnormal movements were discovered, he would act quickly according to the original plan.

Inside and outside the city, there were people worried and worried, but the 30,000 new recruits of the Tianyi Army stationed at the foot of Long Ashan did not know what sorrow was. They sang loud military songs every day and made their final preparations before the war.

I don’t know where Zhao Gang and Lu Xun came from, but they dared to bring 30,000 troops to approach twenty miles outside Xiangyang City. The order Zhao Xing secretly issued to Lu Xun was moved by the camera to support Jingzhou. That’s right, it was support, not real reinforcements.

"The 80,000 Cao troops are not bad troops, but direct descendants of Cao Cao and Liu Bei. Not only are they gathered with powerful generals, but they are also first-class equipment. Once they are surrounded, they can't escape even if they want to!"

"We dare to come, but we didn't think we wanted to escape. Are there 80,000 Cao troops? We have a total of 30,000 Tianyi Army. What kind of troops is the Tianyi Army? It is the second Crouching Tiger Army to protect Pingxi Prince's Mansion in the Western Regions in the future. Who have the Crouching Tiger Army been afraid of?"

"I heard that Cao Cao had a tiger and leopard cavalry with more than 10,000 people, trained by the general Cao Chun day and night. He was very brave and fierce. With the 30,000 Tianyi Army, can he stop the charge of the tiger and leopard cavalry?"

"Damn, you think I'm a child. The tiger and leopard cavalry are magic horses. Have you heard of the Canglang Army and the Dingyuan Army? We have conducted an attacking exercise with them before coming to Xiangyang. Have you heard it clearly? It's an attacking, not a defense!"

"Well, the ignorant is fearless. May the King of Pingxi be with you..."

"Don't, don't let King Pingxi come over. If he comes, our ideological burden will be too heavy. We could have let go of our hands and feet to play the first battle, but maybe we will be too restrained and will be inferior." Please see if there is no advertisement for the starter--.
