Chapter 261
Lu Su and Zhou Yu felt that whether Jiangdong would be catastrophic depends on whether Sun Quan can make a choice.
If Zhou Yu and Lu Su advocated one idea, Sun Quan's point of confusion was which strategy to adopt, and now Sun Quan had to make the decision of whether to be an enemy of Liu Shan.
"Since Zijing and Gongjin both feel that they have to strike first, then do it! Zijing, you are responsible for writing a letter to tell Cao Cao, Gong Jin, you are responsible for ordering troops, remember not to let Jingzhou Liu Bei find out. "
After dozens of minutes of consideration, Sun Quan finally decided to use the strategy of Lu Su and Zhou Yu to surprise Jingzhou and join forces with Cao Cao to fight against Liu Shan.
"Order!"
Zhou Yu and Lu Su immediately went to do it.
Jiangdong Sun Quan finally began to take the initiative, he knew that when Cao Cao monopolized the north and was the largest prince, he could not join forces with him, because Cao Cao at that time did not need Sun Quan's help.
And now Cao Cao has been defeated by Liu Shan three or four times, and he just wants to save a little dignity. Sun Quan relied on these points and concluded that Cao Cao would agree to him in one bite and agree to join forces with Sun Cao.
The secret letter written by Lu Su was safe to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao hurriedly called Xun Yu and the generals to him, and naturally found Xun Yu as soon as possible.
"Wen Ruo, look at it! Jiangdong Sun Quan actually wanted me to cooperate with him and deal with Liu Shan together, he took Jingxiang Jiujun, saying that he would give me Xichuan, what do you think about this matter? "
Cao Cao handed the letter to Xun Yu and asked.
After Xun Yu finished reading it, he passed it to the generals.
In Xun Yu's opinion, Jiangdong Sun Quan will send troops to Jingzhou sooner or later, and Sun Quan only caters to Liu Shan on the surface, which Liu Shan and Zhuge Liang know very well.
"Lord, it seems that you are the most proud, but in fact, there is no more dangerous than the lord. Sun Quan meant to let the lord attack Xuzhou first, and when Liu Shan's army came to aid Jingzhou from Xichuan, he would send troops to attack Xichuan, and it would inevitably meet Liu Shan's army, so that a vicious battle would inevitably be inevitable. "
Xun Yu looked at Sun Quan's letter and knew Sun Quan's true intentions.
Once it was implemented according to Sun Quan's plan, Xun Yu was worried that Jingzhou would eventually fall into the hands of Sun Quan, and Xuzhou would not belong to Cao Cao, but would have to fight with Liu Shan.
Hearing that Liu Bei had an accident, would Liu Shan not be angry?
Angry Liu Shan, even if there are thousands of troops. can't stop it, and then the Cao family army will become a dead soul under the drum urn and golden hammer.
"Sun Quan wants us to attack Xuzhou, drag Liu Shan, and attack Jingzhou, this is clearly to let the lord go to death, lord, don't agree!"
Cao Ren said angrily, he felt that Sun Quan didn't take Cao Cao in his eyes at all.
Moreover, the Cao family army knew the consequences of Liu Shan, especially Cao Ren, who had already been defeated twice under Liu Shan's hands, where did he dare to confront Liu Shan's army head-on?
While Cao Ren and Xun Yu were talking, they saw Cao Cao writing a letter back to Sun Quan.
"Wen Ruo, you give this letter to the Jiangdong envoy and ask him to bring a message to Sun Quan, and I will definitely do it according to the letter!"
After Cao Cao finished writing the letter, he handed it to Xun Yu.
Cao Ren was shocked with a face full of surprise, and he wanted to persuade Cao Cao, but he chose to give up, and Cao Ren was very clear about what Boss Cao decided.
Xun Yu took the letter, he slowly understood what Cao Cao meant, and promised Sun Quan on the surface, but in fact he acted at the opportunity.
After the Jiangdong envoy left, Cao Cao called all the military generals!
"The congregation will obey! Xiahoudun, Xiahouyuan, order you to lead 100,000 troops and march to Xuzhou! After arriving in Xuzhou, camp three miles away, don't rush to attack the city. "
Cao Cao began to arrange his troops, and finally waited for Sun Quan and Liu Shan to split, and Cao Cao wanted to take the opportunity to seize the county of the Liu family.
"Cao Ren, Cao Xiu, for the other way, you lead 100,000 troops to Jingzhou, remember to march secretly! Can't let the children of Jiangdong find out. "
Cao Cao wanted Cao Ren to make meritorious contributions this time, and he had been defeated by Liu Shan's men twice before, and now it was an opportunity to be ashamed.
Cao Ren also thought that Cao Cao would not use him again this time, but he never expected to give him a heavy responsibility.
"Don't worry! We will live up to our mission! "
Cao Ren and Cao Xiu swore to Cao Cao that they still had this confidence.
"Set up camp five miles outside Jingzhou City, and after Sun Quan attacks Jingzhou, you wait for the opportunity to act, whether it is Liu Bei or Sun Quansheng, and will definitely lose your troops, and when the time comes, you will take 100,000 troops to rush away, if you can't get Jingzhou, don't come back to see me!"
Cao Cao patted Cao Ren's shoulder and said meaningfully.
With such a great opportunity, Cao Cao believes that Cao Ren will win a big victory this time.
"Lord, if you don't get Jingzhou this time, let the lord punish you!"
Cao Ren took out the momentum of a housekeeper and said, he himself knew very well that if he was defeated this time, it would be three consecutive defeats, and he would lose his military spirit.
Cao Cao sent a three-way army out of Xudu, all the way to Jingzhou, all the way to Xuzhou, and himself led 150,000 troops to Xichuan.
When Liu Shan came out of the nest, he quietly went around to the Xichuan territory and seized Liu Shan's base.
This is Cao Cao's plan, divided into three routes, the Xiahou brothers led the way, the purpose of which is at the invitation of Sun Quan.
The road led by Cao Ren was aimed at capturing Jingzhou, and the road led by Cao Cao was aimed at capturing Xichuan.
The three-way army set off together, and the morale of the Cao family's army is now rising again.
"This time, the lord's plan is seamless, 350,000 troops will go out of the city, in exchange for the forty-one counties of Xichuan and the nine counties of Jingzhou, it is worth it!"
Xun Yu exclaimed, he went out with Cao Cao.
