Chapter 715: Cao Cao Crisis
The Great China uses carrier pigeons to deliver messages. On the territory of Shu Han, the message can be guaranteed to be delivered within one day.
Cao Cao used manual transmission to deliver messages.
Therefore, Cao Cao's information transmission is at least several days slower than that of the Great China.
Therefore, Cao Cao had no idea at this time that his food supply had been cut off by the Great China.
The person who defends Jiange is Cao Chun, who is a member of the Cao Cao clan and has a deep trust from Cao Cao. It is precisely because of this that Cao Cao ordered Cao Chun to defend Jiange.
On this day, it was already the day when Yinping City came to deliver food.
But it was not until noon that the food from Yinping City had not been delivered.
Cao Chun suddenly felt something was wrong, there would be nothing wrong, right?
It shouldn't be possible? After all, Yinping City is behind, how could something go wrong?
Until the evening, the food was not delivered, and Cao Chun felt even more unpleasant.
At that moment, Cao Chun sent someone to Yinping City to inquire, and on the other hand, he quickly sent someone to report to Cao Cao.
The food in Jiange can last for at most seven days.
If there is no food to be sent within seven days, then their army will be hungry!
Of course, if they really get to the point of ending their lives, they can still plunder the people.
However, the people of Shu Han are all poor people. Even if they plunder the people, they may not be able to steal much.
According to Cao Chun's estimate, at most, it can plunder the grain for ten or eight days!
Now, Cao Chun still hopes that the food can arrive as soon as possible.
The next day, the messenger sent by Cao Chun came to Hanzhong and reported the news facing Jiange to Cao Cao.
After Cao Cao received the news, he was also shocked.
Cao Cao was extremely strict in his army. If nothing unexpected happened, the soldiers under his command would never have made such mistakes.
Even if the food cannot be run, at least someone will be sent to inform us.
But the current situation is that in the Jiange, there has been no food or anyone.
This situation can only show that something happened in Yinping City, where the grain storage in the southwest is located!
Thinking of this, Cao Cao couldn't help but frown tightly.
Yinping City is already in the rear.
If the Great China wants to destroy the food in Yinping City, it must break through several levels.
But I didn't get any news at all, which means that the Great China did not attack these levels.
So, how did the Great China break through these levels?
Could it be that there is a path among them?
Well, Cao Cao is worthy of being a treacherous hero of his generation, and he really guessed the truth.
However, now is not the time to pursue these issues.
The most important thing now is how to deal with this matter.
There must be no food in the army. Once there is a shortage of food, it will immediately cause a mutiny from the soldiers.
So, Cao Cao immediately decided to mobilize food directly from Hanzhong to Jiange.
Hanzhong is also a place where food is stored, but now there is not much food in Hanzhong.
Just after Cao Cao made this decision, a feeling of something bad arose in his heart.
Now there is a problem with the grain storage in Yinping City. So will the Dahua Congress take action on the grain transported from Chang'an?
If the food transported from Chang'an is destroyed by the Great China-
Cao Cao was frightened by his thoughts and was a little afraid to think about it.
The consequences of this incident are really terrible.
However, soon, Cao Cao became calm.
Because in Cao Cao's view, the food transported from Chang'an starts from Chang'an and passes through a series of levels such as Wuzhangyuan and Xiegu.
This road is their absolute rear.
How could there be problems here?
This is absolutely impossible!
Then, Cao Cao ordered the messenger from Jiange to go back and tell Cao Chun that Hanzhong would transport food to Jiange soon.
After sending away the messenger from Jiange, Cao Cao always felt uneasy.
So Cao Cao immediately sent a scout to investigate and see where the food transported from Chang'an has been now?
According to the distance, even if the food has not arrived, it should be a few days away.
At this moment, a close friend sent an urgent military situation.
As soon as Cao Cao heard the word "extended", his eyelids twitched, and his feeling that he didn't dare to feel stronger.
After the trusted general handed over the information, Cao Cao saw the accelerated military information and couldn't help but see the darkness in front of him and almost fell to the ground.
I am really afraid of anything I come to!
The food transported from Chang'an was actually taken away!
The person who seized the grain was Zhao Zilong, a white horse and a silver spear!
And Zhao Zilong actually walked through Ziwu Valley and walked around from behind!
Now, Cao Cao finally figured out why Lu Bu went crazy a few days ago and launched a fierce attack on them desperately.
Then, he attacked for a moment, and then retreated his troops back.
Coupled with their fierce attack, they were preparing for Zhao Zilong's cavalry to cross Ziwu Valley!
This blow from Dahua Kingdom is so fierce!
Now they are in trouble!
The food and grass were seized, and even the food road was controlled by the Great China.
Although they can transport grain from other places, it is too late to go in terms of time!
What's more, even this grain was extorted by Cao Cao from the aristocratic family.
Now those aristocratic families are definitely unhappy and full of complaints.
This batch of grain was burned by the Great China. If the grain was squeezed from the aristocratic families, it would probably cause the aristocratic families to rebound.
Especially when Cao Cao is not in the court, something might happen.
Thinking of this, Cao Cao couldn't help but frown tightly.
Now, Cao Cao has two paths to choose from.
The first one is that he immediately sent troops to fight back and snatched Wuzhangyuan and Xiegu back at all costs.
Once the grain channel is opened, the grain can be transported here.
In this way, it can ensure that there are no losses in Hanzhong and other places.
However, the risk of doing so is also very high.
First of all, it is estimated that it will cost a lot to attack Wuzhangyuan and Xigu.
The more serious problem is that if they can't fight, they will have greater trouble.
Even if he could defeat him, Cao Cao was not sure. If he continued to exploit the aristocratic family, what trouble would it cause.
The second road was much simpler. Cao Cao directly evacuated all the troops and horses from Hanzhong and other places and evacuated from another road.
However, in this way, Hanzhong and other places were equivalent to handing over to Lu Bu.
Cao Cao wasted countless soldiers, horses, money and food, and all of them were wasted.
In particular, they also gave Liu Bei one million harbors of food for free.
When Cao Cao thought of this, he felt extremely unwilling.
But this road is the safest road for Cao Cao.
