Liu Biao is attacking Nanyang?

One hundred thousand army?

After hearing this news, Xun Yu suddenly burst into laughter after a brief shock.

Wonderful, wonderful!

No wonder the emperor sent Liu Ai to Wancheng to take over the troops. It turned out that the emperor had expected this step long ago!

Wonderful, wonderful. Even though Xun Yu thought he was also the most outstanding adviser in the world, he couldn't help but be amazed at the emperor's wonderful plans.

Yes, the gateway of Wancheng Jingzhou is located, and it is geographically beneficial to the north but not the south. Anyway, Wancheng is like a big opening for Liu Biao. To put it simply, he will lose the entire Nanyang. This place is the first county in the Han Dynasty, with a larger population than that of Youzhou and the entire state.

To put it bluntly, the Central Plains soldiers and horses could reach the city of Xiangyang directly in one day. In addition to guarding Xiangyang, he did not have any other dangers to be able to defend.

Good, Zhang Xiu, when you came to join me that day, I was like a broken dog. I kindly gave Wancheng to you to provide you with food and grass, but you treated me like this?

Just at this time, Cao Cao was expeditioning Lu Bu, and most of the main force in the court had been transferred by him. Zhang Xiu surrendered and Liu Ai, who took over, had never heard of him having experience in battle formations.

In this case, the court must send troops to rescue Nanyang. Who can we send? Or, we will send Cao Hong, who is staying in Yangdi. If Cao Hong leaves, Xu will inevitably fall into emptiness. Cao Cao will never be able to come back for a while. The emperor can do too many things.

If Cao Hong didn't go, he would naturally have to send Liu Bei. Then he couldn't let Liu Bei go as commander-in-chief. Should he return his old subordinates to him? It just so happened that Guan Yu is now the Central Army General of the Yulin. Can he let Guan Yu recruit soldiers in Yingchuan and let Liu Bei take them there?

Wait, there is too much room for operation.

If Mao Jie and Cao Hong don’t go and Liu Bei doesn’t go, then there will be more things to do. Taking this opportunity, Xun Yu has no less than ten ways to return the military power to the emperor!

As for whether Liu Biao's so-called 100,000 troops can be repelled, to be honest, Xun Yu really didn't take it seriously.

All fools know that this so-called 100,000 army must be bragging.

It is not difficult to recruit 100,000 troops in Jingzhou, but even if it is a slack farm, it is definitely not a matter of time to recruit 100,000 troops in just a few days.

Xun Yu estimated that Liu Biao would be the most in his hands, and he would only bring 20,000 troops in his hands. It would be impossible for him to recruit more. The troops around Xiangyang were only 20,000 to 30,000 at any time. He would have to leave some troops and horses to stay behind, and he would have to divide a little bit of Wen Pin, and maybe he would have to go for just over 10,000.

If Liu Biao had 20,000 people in his hands, Wenpin could at most lead more than 10,000 troops to advance westward.

As for Huang Zu's so-called 20,000 naval divisions, in his opinion, it was purely nonsense. His main forces were all in Xiakou. He was anxious and could not go north from the Han River. He could only go to the Mian River. The Mian River was not a big river and could not take a big ship. It was still in the dry season. He went upstream and sent 20,000 naval divisions to fight Nanyang unless he was crazy.

Even without considering these geographical factors, do you really think that the little overlord Sun Ce will not avenge his father? He really dared to send 20,000 people north, and Sun Ce sent his troops to Jiangxia every minute to kill his whole family.

Xun Yu estimated that Huang Zu could only send two thousand navy soldiers to meet Liu Biaowenpin, and just show his power.

Therefore, the so-called army of 100,000 is only more than 30,000 people at most.

Secondly, how are the virtues of the soldiers and horses in Jingzhou? Xun Yu still doesn’t know, Liu Biao is just a dog guarding the household.

He rode alone into Jing, and all the generals in Jingzhou had their own troops. His control was just that. He was quite powerful in joining the local clans to fight against foreign enemies. But if he led everyone to conquer cities and expand their territory, he really didn't have the ability.

Finally, and most importantly, they represent the imperial court.

You, Liu Biao, leads troops to attack the court. Why, you, a relative of the Han family, want to be a rebel?

Do you want to be a rebel, and are your civil and military officials ready to be a rebel?

No wonder the emperor asked Liu Ai to go. Although Liu Ai didn't have any ability and could not be considered famous, he was a royal family with a strong root. According to folk customs, Zong Zhengqing understood it as the head of the Liu family.

This is real, Liu Biao and his uncle.

How could Liu Biao let go of his hands?

Being linked together and winning thousands of miles away, looking at the emperor's plan is simply admiring art. Zhang Liang and Han Xin, is that true?

However, at this moment, Liu Xie, who received the news, was so panicked that he was overwhelmed.

Damn, Liu Biao came with an army of 100,000?

Does he want Wancheng?

He must have wanted to take advantage of Xu Du's emptiness and beat Xu Du down!

So Liu Xie quickly summoned all officials over 2,000 stone to discuss the matter, and personally held a court meeting seriously.

As he sat on the dragon throne, Liu Xie's voice was a little trembling: "All... Lords, you are all pillars of the court. Then Liu Biao sent his troops to fight over 100,000 yuan. What... What to do? How many of us have? We should work hard together, and we may be able to raise up to 30,000 people in a hurry, right? Lords, what should we do?"

Seeing this, Xun Yu, Yang Biao, Liu Bei and others gave Liu Xie a thumbs up in their hearts. Emperor, his acting skills are great!

The emperor must have known that Liu Biao would call him, otherwise how could he be so coincidental to send Liu Ai over?

As for Liu Biao, we can even see Liu Biao's reality, how could the emperor not see it?

Yes, yes, it is the one who should be performed, and if you don’t act a little bit, how can you highlight the seriousness of the problem and how can you force Cao Hong to support it?

Immediately, Liu Bei let out a wow and started crying in the hall.

"Liu Biao's son, he is simply a clan relative! I blame me, I blame me, I blame me for not fighting hard at the beginning, which made Zong Zhengqing fall into a dangerous place! Emperor, Emperor, Zong Zhengqing only has five thousand newly surrendered soldiers, only five thousand people, five thousand to one hundred thousand, this is to hit the stone with eggs and hit the stone with eggs! Ask the emperor to issue an edict quickly and send troops to rescue him. If it is too late, Zong Zhengqing will... but I'm afraid there is something I can't bear to say!"

Xun Yu also showed a worried expression and said, "Continue north from Wancheng, it can be said that a horse is flat. A hundred thousand troops will be at the city in a few days. Xudu is located on the plain and there is no natural danger to defend. The Taifu was dragged by Lu Bu again. If it really comes up, we... it is indeed a bit dangerous."

Seeing that these two people said this, Yang Biao immediately cooperated and sighed worriedly, saying, "This matter is indeed difficult. I hope the emperor will make a clear decision. The old minister thought that since Wancheng is easy to defend but difficult to attack, Xudu is easy to attack but difficult to defend, so he will naturally send heavy troops to Wancheng. Besides, Zong Zhengqing is still trapped in Wancheng. If Zhang Xiu surrenders, if he does not save him, he will definitely be heartbroken."

Good guy, Yang Biao directly positioned this battle as a life-and-death battle.

And Liu Xie nodded deeply.

Now, Mao Jie finally couldn't help it.

Do you four of you think of others as stupid?

Why did Xu Du fight to the decisive battle? Whoever is discerningly ignorant can't tell that Liu Biao is bluffing and bragging. The strategic purpose of his trip should be two. The first is to defend Xinye City and build a pass to reduce the pressure on Xiangyang to defend the northern army.

The second is to purely plunder the population and materials, and try to move all the population in southern Nanyang to Xiangyang.

Wherever you go, you will be a life-and-death battle?
