Chapter nine hundred and thirty seventh: Cao Cao's movement

When Wu Shun led his army to attack Wu, Cao Cao knew it immediately, but he was not interested in participating in the war now, and Lu still needs time!

Without Cao Cao's will, the ministers of Lu State dared not propose to participate in the war between Lu State and Wu State.

On this day, Cao Cao summoned his ministers to discuss countermeasures. Now that the two countries are fighting, they should be prepared for Lu.

The Wuling Army did not all move, but only part of it. And I heard that the Wu State commander Zhou Yu had been defeated for a while, and the Wuling Army was heading down the river and plundering the territory that originally belonged to the Wu State.

"Report to the king, Wu and Shu are fighting on the front line of the Yangtze River. Wu is in decline. I think that our country of Lu should send troops to provide assistance."

Xun You came out and said.

"Gongda, you also know that we lost in Xuzhou, and the morale of the army was low. It might be inappropriate to send troops at this time." Cao Cao said.

In the previous series of wars in Xuzhou, they swept all the way in the early stage, and they beat Wen Pin so hard that they couldn't raise their heads. However, Wu Shun arrived later, and the two battles destroyed their confidence and forced him to retire and fight. But it took only a long time before Wu Shun began to attack Wu.

Cao Cao knew very well that if he did not provide assistance, Sun Quan might not be able to stop the Wuling Army's attack. But if he provided assistance, would Wu Shun not be prepared?

According to the spies sent by the State of Lu, Wu Shun left a large number of soldiers in Xuzhou, and Xu Shu was there too.

Xu Shu's name is now known to everyone. The military and political talents of Shu are in Xuzhou, which has a great concern for Cao Cao.

He suspected that Xu Shu was deliberately left to deal with him. If he sent troops to help Sun Quan, the Wuling army in Xuzhou would break into his territory without hesitation.

Of course, his advisers also considered what Cao Cao thought of, but they must help with Wu.

"King, Lord Xun is right. If Wu is destroyed, it will be our Lu Kingdom next. After Shu Kingdom swallows Wu Kingdom, its strength will definitely skyrocket. If that happens, our Lu Kingdom may no longer have the power to resist."

Chen Yu said.

His worries make sense. If Wu Shun destroyed the Wu Kingdom, he would definitely destroy their Lu Kingdom. And at that time, their resistance would be futile.

Starting with Xun You and Chen Yu, the ministers of Lu came out to ask for help in the Wu Kingdom. Of course, a small number of them opposed sending troops, but the number was too small to make the climate.

Helping the full power and uniting the Wu Kingdom to fight against Shu Kingdom is the way out for Lu Kingdom. How could Cao Cao not know?

"Send troops to help with the war? Do you know that Wu Shun and Sun Quan are fighting on the Yangtze River now, and our country's Lu has very few naval forces. How can we help?"

Cao Cao asked the minister who wanted to help the war.

Yes, there are only those naval armies in Lu, and the others are landslides. Shu and Wu are fighting on the water, so they can't join in the fun.

The naval army station was a part of Cao Cao's heart. He didn't care about it before because most of the battles were on land, and the cavalry of Shu Kingdom had a huge impact before. At that time, Cao Cao had to compete with Wu Shun and could only vigorously build cavalry, so he formed a tiger and leopard cavalry.

It’s just a pity that they still haven’t fought the Wuling Army’s personal guard camp.

"The king, Shu and Wu are indeed competing for the naval army, and our Lu naval army is the weakest, so it will be useless if we go." Xun You said truthfully.

"Yes, the battle between the navy is beyond help..."

The palace immediately started to talk.

"King, if Shu wants to conquer Wu, the navy can only open the way and eventually attack the city. Wu needs help, but we don't help. This time, Wu may not be able to escape the bad luck of destroying the country." Xun You said again.

The two countries are indeed competing for the navy, but if Wu Shun wants to destroy the Wu Kingdom, only the navy will not work.

"Since that's the case, we will send troops to support Wu and disperse the forces of Shu!"

Cao Cao was the same as the reason after hearing this. Instead of being defeated by others, it would be better to unite and help each other.

Although Sun Quan was not a person and let Cao Cao go, Cao Cao was already over willful when facing national affairs.

"Gongda, Xu Shu, the counselor of Shu, is guarding against our country of Lu in Xuzhou, what should we do?"

Cao Cao asked.

It is OK to help Wu, but you cannot let yourself be attacked by the Wuling Army, right?

"Your Majesty, you can send a large army to the border and then secretly withdraw at night. Repeatedly, you will be like a large-scale confrontation with the Wuling Army in Xuzhou..."

After Xun You said halfway, Cao Cao understood that on the side of the Wuling Army, he used the army to repeatedly enter to create an illusion. He also organized a large army to help fight Sun Quan.

"Gongda, just do what you want!" Cao Cao ordered.

When Xun You heard Cao Cao agree to his suggestion, he breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Cao Cao would not agree and sat down to see the demise of Wu.

After the ministers of Lu State agreed on a specific plan, Xun You was appointed as the military advisor, and Cao Cao personally led the troops and quietly went to the battlefield of Wu State to prepare to kill the Wuling Army. He caught him off guard.

...

Wu Shun had expected that Cao Cao would help Sun Quan, but Cao Cao was a little slow, and he had already defeated Zhou Yu, so Cao Cao was late.

After Zhou Yu retreated, Zhao Yun led his troops to occupy a large area directly, which can be said to have taken back all the territory he had given to Sun Ce.

After several warships in front, the Jiaolong Fleet was prepared and went downstream to find the Wu Military Advisor to compete. Zhao Yun and Dongfang Qiang followed closely on the shore, and when they encountered the enemy, they directly wiped out them.

There was no big resistance along the way. Wu Shun thought that Zhou Yu had given up and thought that he could fight all the way to Jianye. He was so beautiful.

However, in Jichun, the Wuling Army was once again sniped, and the iron ropes crossed the river. Many soldiers were also hoarded on the shore.

Zhao Yun kept fighting on the shore, and the battle on the river continued to go on. The Wuling Army generally had an advantage. No matter what tricks Zhou Yu had, they would definitely be defeated after a brief stalemate!

The Dragon Fleet was advancing rapidly, Zhao Yun encountered trouble on the shore, the Lu army arrived, and brought the tiger and leopard cavalry!

Wu Kingdom came to help, and morale increased greatly. Zhou Yu immediately organized a counterattack. Jiang Shang would not get an advantage for a while, but Zhao Yun had to treat it with caution on the shore as Lu cavalry participated in the war.

After a while, Gan Ning's navy and Zhao Yun's Qilin Legion actually opened a little gap. The area of ​​contact with the enemy expanded, and the power of fighting was inevitably dispersed.

In view of this, Wu Shun had to order the Jiaolong fleet to retreat and maintain the same offensive rhythm as the Qilin Legion.

With the help of Lu, Zhou Yu transferred more soldiers. In the Jichun area outside their tent, they stopped the Wuling army. If it was not possible, they could only retreat to other dangerous waters.
