Chapter 34: Send troops, the advantage is mine!
The soldier who ordered the order was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and quickly replied:

"Prime Minister, according to reports from the front, Liu Bei is not seen in Xinye City!"

"Maybe he escaped from the city as early as last night!"

"Our army has sent scouts to the direction of Jingxiang to inquire!"

Cao Cao frowned upon hearing this and slowly sat back on the case.

"It's true, just as Renda expected."

Xun You quickly spoke up and said:
"Prime Minister! There has been a plague recently. Even if our army has 500,000 troops, it will be difficult to defeat Liu Bei!"

"Now that the epidemic has disappeared, Liu Bei has even abandoned the city and fled!"

"Our army is launching a large army at this time, which is enough to destroy Liu Bei!"

Cao Cao also nodded when he heard this!

"That's right! Call the generals together to discuss matters and order the dispatch of troops as soon as possible!"

"Save the long nights and dreams and let Liu Da'er escape across the Yangtze River!"

When Xun You and Cheng Yu heard this, they cupped their hands and said, "No."

"We will immediately prepare food, grass and baggage in preparation for the army to break camp and move south!"

Cao Cao nodded, and the disease was under control.

He felt much more at peace.

He is also sure of victory in destroying Liu Bei and seizing Jingxiang!

Later, Cao Jun raised his tent to discuss matters.

At this time, Cao Cao had already changed into a set of clothes.

Freshly dressed and dressed in brocade, he sat at the head of the Chinese army tent.

All the counselors in the tent are full of confidence, and the generals are even more impressive!
After learning that Liu Bei had abandoned the city.

Everyone thought that the time to go south to Jingxiang had come!
Cao Cao's face was full of joy, he just felt that if Liu Bei was destroyed, Jingzhou would be at his fingertips!
The old face couldn't help but said excitedly:

"Gentlemen! Now Liu Bei has abandoned the city and fled!"

"Only Guan Yu defends Xinye."

"Our army has been wasting time, it's time to finally achieve its full success!"

As soon as they heard what the Prime Minister said, all the generals present seemed very excited and eager to give it a try!
Zhang Liao quickly took the lead and said: "Prime Minister!"

"The last general is willing to lead an army on his own, and he will break new ground!"

"Dedicate Liu Bei's head to the tent!"

Xia Houyuan also hurriedly followed and said:

"Prime Minister! When it comes to attacking Xinye, the last general will do his duty!"

"The last general is willing to share the Prime Minister's worries and avenge the shame of brothers Zi Xiao and Yuan Rang!"

Suddenly, the generals of Cao's army rushed to the front, and various calls for battle were heard in the tent.

In their view, Xinye is now an isolated city.

Not only did Liu Bei run away, but he also lost support from the rear.

In addition, the soldiers inside may still be plagued by the plague.

In this case, you can win even with your eyes closed!
It’s simply a victory for nothing!

Therefore, the entire Chinese army tent looked like a proud soldier.

Moreover, Cao Cao's eyes were looking around.

In the end, after much thought, it fell on Xia Houyuan.

He immediately said, "Where is Xia Houyuan?"

Xiahou Dun Plague also looked happy and quickly got out of the queue!

"Wonderful talent, in this battle, the main general Cao Hong will be assisted!"

"Remember, we must capture Liu Bei in this battle, no matter life or death!"

"Exaggerate my power and intimidate the young people in Jingxiangxiao!"

As soon as Cao Cao finished speaking, Xia Houyuan quickly said respectfully:

"General, obey the order! We must capture Xinye and destroy Liu Bei!"

Xia Houyuan's eyes were like fire, and his mind had begun to outline the scene of victory.

Imagine the heroic appearance of leading his subordinates into the camp to boast of their merits!
From Xia Houyuan's point of view, Guan Yu was in every possible wrongdoing.

Under the pressure of a large army, he will definitely die if he is outnumbered!
Xia Houyuan wants to defeat Xinye in one battle and kill Guan Yu! Clear the name of Cao Jun’s clan generals!
With Guan Yunchang's head, he achieved the reputation of Xiahou Miaocai!
I saw my lord ordered Xia Houyuan.

The eyes of other generals present were a little dim.

An expression of extreme pity appeared uncontrollably on his face.

Yesterday it was Cao Hong, today it is Xia Houyuan. Together with these generals with foreign surnames, they can't even drink soup!
Cao Cao himself looked at Xia Houyuan with confidence at this time.

I am also very satisfied in my heart.

Among the fierce generals under his command.

Xiahou Miaocai was famously good at running attacks.

It is said in the army: March five hundred miles in three days, march one thousand miles in six days!

If we can win Xinye, Jingzhou will be ahead.

The army marched straight down, wasn't Liu Bei able to capture it easily?

This doesn't even require dispatching his elite tiger and leopard cavalry.

And once Liu Bei dies, will it still be a problem to capture Jingzhou?
With such a wealthy land in hand, Cao Mengde is not far away from his great cause of unifying the world!
At this time, all the counselors in the entire big tent had no objection to Xia Houyuan's expedition to the new wilderness.

Only Jia Xu's face showed some hesitation.

Recalling what Sima De said in the tent earlier.

Although Jia Xu has never dealt with Zhuge Kongming.

And now the prime minister doesn't take Liu Bei seriously at all.

But Jia Xu knew that Zhuge Kongming could make Sima De so fearful.

Zhuge Kongming may be really capable.

And from this moment on, the atmosphere of arrogance pervaded the army.

I'm afraid I'm going to suffer a big loss during this expedition.

Everyone thought that this battle would be a great victory, but if the battle situation went unfavorable.

Later, the morale of the entire army will be seriously affected, which will hinder the subsequent attack on Jingzhou.

Thinking of this, Jia Xu couldn't help but look at Sima Di.

Sure enough, Sima also said somewhat inappropriately at this time:

"Ming Gong! I'm afraid Zhuge Liang's plan will not be that simple. You must be careful with your troops in this battle!"

"Although Xinye is just an isolated city now."

"But with his Crouching Dragon plan, he will definitely have a backup plan!"

"What's more, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are the most powerful generals in the world!"

"The new field is desirable, but Liu Bei still needs to slowly figure it out!"

Xia Houyuan next to him heard this, but his face was a little unconvinced!

A fighting spirit was suddenly aroused in his heart, and he waved his hand and said:

"Sima Military Advisor is overly worried!"

"Then Zhuge Liang is just a peasant from the mountains!"

"Is it possible that he really has extraordinary abilities?"

"If you are really capable, you won't let Liu Bei abandon the city and flee!"

"The prime minister gave a certain army of 50,000 people, can't he capture Liu Bei's lost dog?"

"If this big-eared thief can still escape, why not take off his armor and go back to his hometown?"

Speaking of this, Xia Houyuan also said to his lord Cao Cao:

"Prime Minister, don't worry!"

"The last general will definitely kill Guan Yu and destroy Liu Bei to increase the power of our army!"

When Cao Cao heard this, he nodded repeatedly and said:
"The bravery of a brilliant man is commendable. This battle should be rewarded based on merit!"

At this point, he paused and said with a smile:

"As for Liu Bei, all our troops' tactics have been sent to Jingxiang!"

"I believe Renda's previous plan will be effective soon!"

"In this way, Liu Bei is like a turtle in a urn, how can he survive?"

Boss Cao's words made Sima De stunned!

Jia Xu originally wanted to give some advice, but at this time he simply kept his words to himself.

When Xia Houyuan heard the Prime Minister's encouragement, he also said energetically:
"Comrades, don't worry!"

"Then what kind of famous general is Guan Yu?"

"Thinking about how we were all friendly forces in the first battle of Guandu, we didn't see how capable he was!"

"I will chop off his head today and serve wine to everyone!"
