Chapter 251
Liu Shan and Zhuge Liang knew that Cao Cao would never retreat easily, he came from Xu Du from afar, and would he return empty-handed?
"Lord, it seems that Cao Cao is nothing more than that!"
Hearing that Cao Cao was about to withdraw if he didn't fight, Zhang Fei said with disdain.
All the soldiers shouted, only Zhuge Liang and Liu Shan were wondering what Cao Cao's next goal would be?
"Lord, according to Kong Ming's foolish opinion, Cao Cao should have led his troops to Yizhou, Yizhou Mu Liu Zhang is cowardly by nature, this is something that everyone in the world knows, as soon as Cao Jun arrives, he will inevitably open the door and surrender!"
In the laughter of all the soldiers, Zhuge Kongming's voice suddenly came out.
The audience was immediately silent!
Didn't Cao Cao retreat? Why did he attack Yizhou again?
In the hearts of Zhang Fei and the other generals, they didn't understand Zhuge Kongming's words, and they all looked at Zhuge Liang with curious eyes.
"Liu Zhang and Zhang Lu have a vendetta for killing their mother, what he is most afraid of is Zhang Lu's revenge, now Zhang Lu has been killed by Yide, Hanzhong belongs to the Liu family, Liu Zhang has no enemies now, it depends on whose ally he chooses!"
Liu Shan opened his mouth and said, in Liu Shan's opinion, although Liu Zhang is cowardly by nature, he also knows how to weigh the pros and cons.
If Kaesong surrendered to Cao Cao, it would mean becoming an ally with the Cao family.
If you stick to it without a fight and ask Liu Shan for help, you will become an ally with the Liu family.
Liu Zhang only has two options now, and this time Liu Shan did not send troops to Yizhou first, giving Liu Zhang a chance to choose.
Liu Shan was stationed in Hanzhong first, taking over all the affairs of Hanzhong, and if Liu Zhang sent someone to ask for help, he would then send troops to fight Cao Cao.
"Liu Zhang and his father are both relatives of the Han family, and I hope he will make the right choice. "
What Liu Shan said was only understood by Zhuge Liang, and Zhang Fei and the others were still in a state of confusion.
Once Liu Zhang defected to Cao Cao, Liu Shan would send troops to attack Yizhou, listing Liu Zhang as the first target and killing him!
In this way, it can have the effect of killing a hundred people, and the warlords in other places in Xichuan resolutely did not dare to take refuge in Cao Cao.
"Lord, military advisor, you two masters, why can't we understand a word?"
Zhang Fei couldn't help it, so he opened his mouth and asked Liu Shan and Zhuge Liang.
Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong also nodded, they were all white Cao Cao, did they retreat back to Xudu?
The reason why Cao Cao did not go to war was that he wanted to preserve his strength to attack the next city, and Yizhou would definitely be his biggest target. "
Liu Shan told Zhang Fei and the others that it was only then that they understood why Cao Cao retreated without a fight!
"Don't forget, the three heroes of Yingchuan are not only Guo Jia, but also Xun Yu, his intelligence is never inferior to filial piety!"
Zhuge Liang waved a goose feather fan and said, his purpose was to tell Zhang Fei and the others that Cao Cao had a first-class adviser under him.
Xun Yu, who is as famous as Guo Jia, is Cao Cao's heavyweight military advisor, Xun Yu has a noble status in the Cao family, and even Cao Cao respects him for three points.
Even if Cao Cao wanted to retreat, Xun Yu would definitely block it, press the army in, lose a Hanzhong, and benefit from Zhouzhou and other places.
In Xun Yu's opinion, if he can get Yizhou, he can still compete with Liu Shan!
"My lord, military advisor, then why don't we send troops to attack Liu Zhang now? Before Cao Cao captures Yizhou, seize the opportunity! Cao Cao has no city to garrison, and he resolutely wants to retreat!"
Huang Zhong opened his mouth and said, he thought that now was the best time to send troops to attack Yizhou.
Liu Shan shook his head, he told Huang Zhong what he thought, and then asked the soldiers of the three armies to rest and wait for news from Liu Zhang.
Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, and Zhang Fei found a place to rest.
Liu Shan took Zhuge Liang to the barracks, wanting to see if the soldiers of the three armies were still in their momentum after this battle?
"Lord, looking at it, among the entire princes, Cao Cao has the most soldiers and horses, and the so-called soldiers are strong and strong! Cao Cao is now about to start raising troops to conquer and expand his territory!"
Zhuge Liang was behind Liu Shan, and said as he walked.
Cao Cao's ambition has always been there, but he is good at avoiding his edge, Cao Cao listed Liu Shan as the strongest opponent, and he would never go to war with Liu Shan unless he had to.
Xun Yu never suggested that Cao Cao and Liu Shan should have a head-on conflict, although the Cao family and the Liu family could not become allies, Xun Yu hoped that water and fire would not be incompatible.
Cao Cao knew very well that if he started a war with the Liu family army led by Liu Shan, even if the whole army was not annihilated, he would suffer heavy losses.
His plan was to annex the other princes first, and then wait until there was only the Liu family among the princes in the world, and then he would have a life-and-death battle with the Liu family.
"After the last defeat of Cao Ren, Cao Cao only went to attack the other princes, and threatened to start a war with the Liu family! I don't think he is afraid of the Liu family, or to preserve his strength and annex the other princes, his territory and soldiers and horses will be replenished, Cao Cao is a rare opponent!"
Liu Shan began to have some interest in Cao Cao, and had already decided not to destroy Cao Cao first, to see how much Cao Cao could grow.
Zhuge Liang understood what Liu Shan meant, there was a competitor, so that he would not seek defeat alone. _
