Three Kingdoms, I open a tavern in Xudu

"Your Majesty, I think that if Chen Yang wants to send troops from Guanzhong, there are probably two directions."

Wang Ji watched them all fall silent, and took the initiative to say: "First of all, he will fight from Chang'an to Luoyang, and secondly, he will go north from Chang'an to enter the Hetao area. In my opinion, it is more likely that Chen Yang will use the second point. "

Sima Yi asked, "Why?"

Wang Ji replied: "Chen Yang's power in Guanzhong was just established, and the foundation was not too stable. He didn't want to fight directly from Luoyang and face our Great Jin and Wei. Doing so would easily lead to cooperation between our two countries to deal with it first." Guanzhong."

After hearing this, Yang Xiu echoed and said: "The Hetao area used to be the place where the Huns lived. Princess Yaruo of the Huns was by Chen Yang's side and could give him some help. I also think that it is very likely that Chen Yang will go north. .”

Wang Ji thought so and nodded in agreement.

Wu Ting said, "In other words, as long as we set up an ambush in the Hetao area and strengthen our defenses, can we suppress Chen Yang?"

"you can say it this way!"

Wang Ji said: "There is one more thing to pay attention to. You must not let Ya Ruo encourage those Huns, or they will all take refuge in Ya Ruo and turn against us."

Sima Yi finally said: "You are all right, then follow this method first, as for breaking the face with Cao Cao, continue to go south..."

Before he finished speaking, Wu Ting immediately said: "Your Majesty, let me take responsibility for this matter? I want to take down Xiangyang personally, and make Cao Cao and his son regret it!"

After escaping from Xiangyang, he hated Cao's father and son deeply in his heart, and wished to get rid of them quickly. How could he let go of such a great opportunity for revenge this time when he went south to use troops.

What's more, Wei without Chen Yang is like a poisonous snake without fangs, unable to be fierce.

"That's it!"

Sima Yi said loudly: "Since Cao Cao doesn't want to cooperate, let's fight! The thorns we planted should also play a role. Tomorrow we will start to move south, starting with Qingzhou and Yanzhou. General Wang, you have to go to the Hetao area to delay Chen Yang." , General Wu, go and attack Qingzhou."

Wang Ji's ability to dispatch troops is the strongest, and it is most appropriate to use it to suppress Chen Yang.

"Yes!"

The crowd said in unison.

Wu Ting's eyes turned cold, he felt that he would soon make Cao Cao regret his past, and he wanted revenge by killing everyone.

In the early morning of the next day, Wu Ting couldn't wait to leave Yecheng, cross the Yellow River and head straight for Qingzhou.

Although Qingzhou is now under the control of Cao Cao, the Jin army arranged many spies before retreating, which are their stabs, so prepare everywhere.

When Wu Ting led the army, Jinan, Jibei and other places fell directly. They didn't need to fight much, and they soon approached Beihai, and almost swept the entire Qingzhou back.

In less than half a month, Wu Ting took down the last Langya, and then marched into Changyi, Chenliu and other places, and regained control of the place near Guandu at an extremely fast speed.

The Jin army went south again, and all kinds of news spread all over the sky, and soon spread back to Xiangyang City.

Cao Cao clasped his hands tightly, breathing more and more heavily, and shouted: "Send another [-] troops, go north as soon as possible to block Wu Ting, and defend Luoyang, we must not let Luoyang suffer!"

The soldiers and horses in the south continued to go north for reinforcements.

During the past half month, Great Wei was in a mess, but Cao Cao's methods were still strong enough to forcefully suppress some wavering people.

"Your Majesty, when Sima Yi made peace, he must have a purpose. Now let's reveal their purpose."

Cao Ren sighed and said, "They forced Zian away by tricks, and arranged for Jin's spies in the retreating city to cooperate with Wu Ting and beat us by surprise!"

When mentioning Chen Yang's matter, Cao Cao regretted it all, and it was absolutely irreversible. Chen Yang didn't want to help him at all now, even if he came back to Xiangyang, he still tried to leave in the end.

With Cao Ang's surrender, Xu Shu also had to join Cao Wei's camp in order to save his own life.

Guo Jia, Xun Yu and others resigned and went back to seclusion, or even ran away. There were not many people who could be used in the court, and Cao Cao let Xu Shu go because of this.

"I believe that increasing military support all the time is of little use. The current plan is to find out all the spies that Sima Yi put in as soon as possible."

Xu Shu cupped his hands and said, "I propose to control those who have had contact with the state of Jin first, and then conduct a large-scale investigation as soon as possible before Wu Ting's attack. The people who defend the city and defend it must be our generals and soldiers from the south to the north. , to avoid situations like those in Qingzhou.”

"Follow Xu Yuanzhi's method first."

Cao Cao took this measure without hesitation.

Xu Shu said again: "If you want to defend Luoyang and other places, maybe you can try to contact Chen Yang, but this is just a suggestion from the minister. If your majesty doesn't like it, then the minister has not said it."

As long as Chen Yang sends troops in Guanzhong, the Heluo area will basically not be a problem.

Chen Yang is now Cao Cao's taboo. Xu Shu said this because he mustered up his courage. If he poked Cao Cao's pain, he was worried that he would not be able to survive.

Jia Xu cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I think Xu Yuanzhi's plan is feasible."

He did not run away like Guo Jia and the others.

What happened to Chen Yang didn't have much impact on Jia Xu, who was always near Xudu at that time, and was only recently recalled to Xiangyang to replace Guo Jia and Xun Yu.

"Your Majesty, no!"

Cao Pi's heart tightened: "This move is like luring a wolf into the house. If Chen Yang takes this opportunity to attack and come back, we can't stop him."

He was only worried about his own interests, and he didn't want Chen Yang to fight back, so he had to oppose such an approach.

He couldn't figure out one thing, why Chen Yang betrayed and ran away, and there were still so many people in the court facing Chen Yang.

Thinking of the relationship between Chen Yang and his elder brother, Cao Pi felt very upset.

Jia Xu and the others shut up at the same time, this matter is not something they can argue about, let's stop at the point.

They have already given the suggestion, what to do, it all depends on what Cao Cao thinks.

"Zixiao, when Chen Yang escaped from Lujiang, you were near Nanyang and let him go, right?"

Cao Cao asked lightly.

"That's right!"

Cao Ren didn't know why he brought up the old matter, and he admitted it without hesitation. There is nothing to deny this kind of thing, and continued: "At the time when I was in Xiapi, I joined forces with Zi'an, and he helped my ministers take down Xiapi. I also want to help His Majesty restore peace, although it failed in the end."

"But if you do it, you do it. If His Majesty wants to punish the minister, he will have no complaints."

"Zixiao, you think too much!"

Cao Cao sighed and said, "I want you to go to Chang'an to see if you can cooperate with Chen Yang and deal with Sima Yi first."

After all, Chen Yang and Sima Yi had a deep hatred, so Cao Cao decided to follow Xu Shu's suggestion.

Back then in Xudu, Sima Yi even assassinated Chen Yang.
