Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 411 is on the verge of breaking out?
Sima Yi's words were obviously quite targeted!

The implicit meaning of this statement is that Xing Daorong has the conditions to defect and establish his own regime.

However, if Xing Daorong really wanted to live a carefree life, he would have been living the life of a super rich second-generation by now. There would be no way he would be here working so hard and worrying about future wars.

He has a strong sense of national justice in his heart.

After unifying the world, he still has a lot of things to do.
He immediately pretended not to understand Sima Yi's words and did not respond. He just bowed and said, "Since you have received the person, I will not send him off any longer. Farewell!"

Sima Yi understood what Xing Daorong was thinking, so he just smiled and said, "General Xing, if we meet again in the future, it will be on the battlefield!"

"I think we won't have to wait too long, but please show some mercy!"

Sima Yi's words were somewhat shameless.

When two armies are fighting, each serving their own master, how can they show mercy?

Xing Daorong was secretly cursing Sima Yi for being an old fox, but he heard him say, "I think we will meet again soon!"

Xing Daorong's heart tightened when he heard this. From what he said, it seemed that Cao's army was about to attack again?
just
If it was true that Cao's army had secretly mobilized, why did Sima Yi tell him?

Could it be that he really considers me as a friend?
But no matter what, since Sima Yi has mentioned it, the military training must be more diligent.

Even though this kind of thing was suggested by Sima Yi, an unreliable guy, we should still believe it is true rather than not!

However, facing Sima Yi at the moment, Xing Daorong naturally could not say this. Instead, he responded pointedly: "If we meet on the battlefield, swords have no eyes, and I am afraid of accidental injuries."

"Please be careful, Sima Military Advisor. Don't get stabbed along with this large army for no apparent reason."

Sima Yi listened to Xing Daorong's confident words, but smiled and said: "It's okay, it's okay, life and death are determined by fate, this is all determined by heaven!"

After saying this, there was finally nothing more to say, so he took Cao Zhi and headed north.

Seeing the people walking away, Lu Xun, who had been silent, finally stepped forward and said to Xing Daorong: "General, from what Sima Yi said, Cao's army is going to attack Jiangdong again?"

Xing Daorong said: "When Sima Yi speaks, who can tell whether it is true or false?"

"It is not necessarily to use troops against Jiangdong, but it is also possible to use troops against Jingzhou and Guanzhong."

"They even mobilized all three forces at once, leaving us unable to take care of both ends!"

"Let's wait and see how it develops and deal with it accordingly. If we think too much about it now, we will fall into Sima Yi's trap."

Lu Xun nodded slightly when he heard this.

After meeting today, he finally understood why Xing Daorong always had a special feeling of importance towards Sima Yi.

Sima Yi was truly extraordinary as he went alone to meet Cao Zhi and even planned to place Cao Zhi in Henei to use him for his own purposes.

In the past, Cao Cao used the emperor to control the princes, but Sima Yi used Cao Zhi to control him, but no one knew what he could do.
As for what Sima Yi said to Xing Daorong, one of them was to remind Xing Daorong that he had a chance to establish himself. If something happened to Liu Bei like Cao Cao, and Xing Daorong raised the banner of rebellion, he would not be without any chance.

Secondly, Sima Yi was also reminding Xing Daorong implicitly that his achievements were now too great to be feared by the emperor, so he should think of ways to protect himself.

That light sentence actually contained a cold murderous intent. If an ordinary person heard it, he would always have some thoughts in his mind. But for Xing Daorong, it was unclear whether it would have any impact.

After Xing Daorong sent Cao Zhi away, he got news from Sima Yi that Cao's army was going to take action, so he asked Lu Xun to send people to pay more attention to Cao's movements.

As a result, he soon discovered that he did not need to send more troops and horses, because Cao Pi's movements were so large that he did not need anyone to keep a close eye on him.

First, Cao Pi moved his residence from Yecheng to Xuchang, showing that he was determined to fight Liu Bei to the death, and had absolutely no intention of using half of the country to gain a compromise.

Immediately, troops from all directions were mobilized, including Chang'an, Huaixi, Qingxu, Hebei and Central Plains, and the entire Cao army was on the move.

Mobilization!
A showdown!
Xing Daorong was a little surprised when he received the news.

I didn't expect that Cao Pi, not long after taking over, was already ready to fight to the death!
This made Xing Daorong admire him a little.

No matter whether they are enemies or friends, as long as they are willing to not compromise with half of the country and are thinking of unifying the world, they are all good.

Look at our General Xing's vision, it's quite big.

However, since Cao's army began to mobilize troops so openly, Liu Bei naturally could not turn a blind eye.

quickly
The letter from Chengdu arrived.

"Cao's troops are now moving in all directions, but they must have prioritized their actions. Jiangdong is guarded by Zi Yu, who has always made Cao's army wary. I think this is a feint attack."

"If you see Cao's army coming here, don't panic. You should act according to the situation, find a chance to defeat the enemy, and then counterattack."

"As for the main force of Cao's army, most of them should go to Jingzhou to cut off the connection between our east and west."

"Here are some golden bags. If Ziyu sees Jingzhou in danger and is undecided, you can take them and join the army."

Without looking at the signature, Xing Daorong could tell that this must be a letter from Zhuge Liang.

Although there are only a few numbers, they clearly analyze the movements of Cao's army.

However, it must be said that Zhuge Liang's analysis was quite correct. It was impossible for Cao's army to attack in three directions at the same time, with each direction being the main force.

The soldiers were also divided into strong troops and new recruits.

There are only 20,000 to 30,000 elite soldiers. How can they be used in three directions?

There are only 50,000 veterans at most.

The rest are all new recruits, not the main force. These soldiers may be able to bully others with their might, but if the balance of war shifts, their side will be at a disadvantage and their morale will collapse quickly.

So
Even though there are so many people, they can only be used for feint attacks.

However, this does not mean that Xing Daorong can attack at will.

Xing Daorong didn't have many elite soldiers, only about 10,000 in total.

It is not easy to find opportunities from it. Most of the remaining 30,000 soldiers are rookies and need more training.

Now that the war is imminent, the situation between the North and the South will soon be heading towards an all-out war, so Xing Daorong naturally dares not slack off at all.

He even began to practice in the army himself.

Although Xing Daorong's own training level cannot be said to be very good, he learned a lot from Chen Daoke in the past. He is now completely different from before and has his own unique method of training.

The main thing is hard training.

Shout the slogan: "One more drop of sweat on the training ground means one less drop of blood on the battlefield."

This slogan was of course copied by Xing Daorong from later generations, but it was quite practical for the soldiers of this era.
