Chapter 329 Go to Hanzhong
Cao Cao did not take Sima Yi's suggestion seriously, but did not reject it, but instead allowed it.
Lao Cao was also helpless. Facing the attacks between Ma Teng and Zhang Lu, he was exhausted and in danger. He wanted to see what results Sima Yi could have.
A dead horse is a living horse.
Unexpectedly, Sima Yi recruited five thousand soldiers for Cao Cao in just a short time. Although five thousand soldiers were nothing in normal times, the war was in a stalemate at this moment, and five thousand soldiers were likely to have a miraculous effect.
But it was only possible. Cao Cao did not have much hope for these 5,000 new recruits. He only hoped that Sima Yi could lead his troops to help Zhang He and temporarily delay Zhang Lu's offensive.
So that he can free up his hands and concentrate on dealing with Ma Teng.
Sima Yi did the same, leading five thousand soldiers to help Zhang He.
But unexpectedly, on the battlefield, Sima Yi led 5,000 new soldiers and rushed into the enemy camp with no chance of death, causing Zhang Lu's army to mess up.
Zhang He took the opportunity to attack fiercely and defeated Zhang Lu in one fell swoop!
Zhang Lu was not a soldier, nor was he a qualified general. He just took advantage of his military strength to defeat Zhang He. Now that he was defeated and fell into adversity, he would not be able to fight.
Then, under the pursuit of Zhang He and Sima Yi, Zhang Lu was defeated one after another. When he fled back to Hanzhong, he had lost his troops and lost his generals, leaving only two or three of them.
"At present, Liu Bei and Cao Cao are eyeing Hanzhong."
Finally, Liu Qi said this.
Zhang Lu's troops in Hanzhong were only two or three. Whether it was the adjacent Xichuan Liu Bei, or the chasing Zhang He and Sima Yi's army, they all wanted to take Hanzhong in one fell swoop.
Lin Yi digested all the information, and finally, he was speechless.
What made him speechless was that Cao Cao, Ma Teng, Zhang Lu, and Liu Bei had all been so troubled. Liu Qi, the governor of Jingzhou, had no idea at all?
If you take advantage of the battle between Cao Cao, Ma Teng and Zhang Lu, you will definitely be able to defeat Cao Cao in one fell swoop!
Cao Cao was already in danger when facing Ma Teng and Zhang Lu's attacks. He only needed tens of thousands of soldiers and a general to destroy Cao Cao into a place that would never be restored.
Jingzhou is now strong and has hundreds of thousands of armor. It’s not a pity to take out tens of thousands of soldiers? Seeing Liu Qi lent Liu Bei 30,000 soldiers casually, you know that this Jingzhou governor is not short of money!
Moreover, in terms of generals, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan and others whom he once recommended were also famous generals.
I didn’t know how to take advantage of such a good opportunity. Lin Yi only glanced at Liu Qi and knew that it was this Jingzhou governor who was too cowardly! He didn’t dare to use troops!
Thinking about Liu Qi's step-by-step pressing and blindly escaping with his stepmother, Lin Yi knew that this kid's temperament was too soft!
However, this kid is not without advantages, and is particularly shiny in the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms, that is, he is kind-hearted and kind. Unfortunately, this shining point is good in the prosperous times, but in the troubled times, that is a fatal weakness.
Now that Zhang Lu was defeated in Hanzhong, Cao Cao and Liu Bei were both preparing to swallow Hanzhong's territory. This powerful governor of Jingzhou still had no idea at all.
With this kind of personality, it would be strange if you can win the world!
Lin Yi shook his head secretly, but since he decided to help Liu Qi conquer the world, he would not regret it. Moreover, the kind-hearted and kind Liu Qi was much better than the three brothers Sun Quan, Liu Bei and Cao Cao.
Sun Shangxiang and Liu Qi both looked at Lin Yi, not knowing what the military advisor was thinking.
Lin Yi was also thinking about where to start to help Liu Qi fight for the world?
Should we fight Dongwu first, or take Xichuan first? Or should we fight Cao Cao directly!
Whether it is Sun Quan, Liu Bei, and Cao Cao, in Lin Yi's eyes, they are just a dish, eating whatever they want, and beating whoever they want!
Should we beat Sun Quan first, or Liu Bei first? Or Cao Cao first?
Lin Yixin said that Sun Quan was Sun Shangxiang's brother no matter how he said that, so he could beat him up in the end.
Lao Cao was fighting with Ma Teng. If he sent troops at this time and attacked from behind Cao Cao, he would have exploded Cao Cao's chrysanthemums and made him doomed.
However, compared to Cao Cao, Lin Yi was even more disliked by Liu Bei. This kid borrowed 30,000 soldiers from our Jingzhou and refused to return them!
If you borrow something and don’t repay it, if you don’t have a good character, you will beat you up!
Thinking of this, Lin Yi made a decision, glanced at Sun Shangxiang and Liu Qi who were staring at him, and said with a chuckling, "Hanzhong is a good place, and it cannot be cheaper for Cao Cao and Liu Bei."
Sun Shangxiang and Liu Qi were both stunned. Want to fight Hanzhong?
The next day.
Lin Yi asked Liu Qi to prepare a letter and sent an envoy to find Liu Bei.
The letter stated that Liu Bei had to return the 30,000 Jingzhou soldiers who had borrowed and wanted to use Yizhou to conquer Hanzhong!
Lin Yixin said, Liu Bei, you kid, don’t you borrow troops to repay them? You still have an excuse to gain a foothold in Yizhou?
Want to fight Hanzhong without a firm foothold?
According to his intention, Liu Bei either obediently returned 30,000 Jingzhou soldiers, or obediently gave in and asked him to use the way to fight Hanzhong.
According to his guess, with the character of Liu Bei, the old boy, he must have been so stingy that he refused to return the 30,000 Jingzhou soldiers.
As expected, Liu Bei replied that he had not yet established a stable foothold in Yizhou, and 30,000 Jingzhou soldiers were returned in the future.
As for Liu Qi who wanted to use the road to fight Hanzhong, Liu Bei was also willing to give way.
Immediately, Liu Qi appointed Lin Yi as military advisor, Huang Zhong and Wei Yan as the leading generals, and led an army of 100,000 to capture Hanzhong.
Originally, according to Lin Yi's intention, it did not require so many troops to capture a small Hanzhong, but after he was about to capture Hanzhong, he turned around and beat Liu Bei, the old boy, and brought more troops.
The more than 6,000 cavalry units trained by Lin Yi himself were also among the 100,000 troops.
Huang Zhong and Wei Yan were both generals recommended by Lin Yi to Liu Qi back then. Otherwise, I would have been a vaguely famous lieutenant now, and both of them were very convinced by Lin Yi.
Wei Yan even followed Lin Yima's leadership and was preparing to surrender to the army of Lin Da.
It’s a pity that Lin Yi has disappeared in the past two years, which makes Wei Yan, who wants to defect to him, helpless and can’t find anyone!
In the eyes of the ministers in Jingzhou, Huang Zhong also belonged to Lin Yi's lineage. He labeled Lin Yi, after all, he recommended it to him.
However, the ministers of Jingzhou made great achievements in military affairs, but they were very helpless in the military commander Lin, who had made great achievements and had no chance of seeing his head and no end. This made many Jingzhou people who wanted to surrender to Lin Yi feel deeply helpless.
Now Lin Yi suddenly appeared and led a 100,000 army to attack Hanzhong. For a moment, it caused a sensation in the entire Jingzhou and even spread throughout the world.
Although Huang Zhong is regarded as a member of Lin Yi's lineage, he is still relatively calm.
Wei Yan immediately expressed his loyalty.
