Sui and Tang Dynasties Summons

Chapter 461 The Shocked Cao Cao

In the Battle of Muye, Chen Tian joined forces with Zhao Kuangyin to kill Li Shimin's 12 troops, and Muye City was also captured.

Li Shimin fought and retreated all the way. When he fled to Hangu Pass, only 12 of the [-] troops were left, and most of them were disabled.

The fighting situation was horrible.

And Chen Jun was a big victory, the captives were reorganized into Tang Jun with nearly [-] people. Now, with the number of casualties, Chen Jun has reached [-] troops.

Chen Tian left Guan Sheng and Lu Zhishen stationed in Xuchang and Muye respectively. At this time, the army was marching towards Hangu Pass and Tongguan.

This is Li Tang Chang'an's last barrier, Chen Tian is bound to win!
On the day of the decisive battle in Makino, all the spies all over the country stepped up their horses and sent the information on the outcome of the decisive battle to all parts of the world.

Xuzhou, Jinan, Wei Wangfu.

At this time, Cao Cao had spent half a year mobilizing troops and recruiting talents from all over the country, and now he has slowly recovered his strength, with a force of [-] and many famous generals under his command.

Right now, he has led his army to the north, trying to take advantage of Wanyan Aguda's slack, to occupy the area south of Yandi, and bring all these people's and financial resources into his actual control.

Cao Jun was originally fighting and victorious, but a piece of intelligence from the Central Plains gave them a heavy punch in spirit.

At this moment, the hall of Prince Wei's Mansion was filled with amazement, uproar, and all kinds of inconceivable.

The top and bottom of the Wei army, the counselors and generals, were all surprised by the result of the Muye battle.

In the first place, Cao Cao held the information in his hand, his brows were darkened, and his scorched face could not restrain his surprise.

Let alone Cheng Yu, a top talent like Wu Qi, even Cao Cao himself was completely unexpected about the outcome of this war.

Cao Cao really couldn't believe that Li Shimin had an army of 12, and he also had the impregnable Muye, so he was defeated by Chen Tian and fled back to Chang'an in embarrassment.

Unbelievable!

This is completely unbelievable.

If it is said that Li Yuanji lost to Chen Tian, ​​Cao Cao would understand. Li Yuanji's ability is mediocre, and his strength is only [-]. It is not surprising that he was defeated by Chen Tian.

But Li Shimin commanded an army of 12, and he was assisted by Wolong Kongming, but he was beaten like this by Chen Tian, ​​Cao Cao couldn't believe it.

"This Chen Tian... how many strange people does he have under his command?" Cao Cao threw the information on the case, with a bit of disgust burning in his sunken eyes, but rather than disgust, it was more panic .

Li Shimin's failure certainly disappointed Cao Cao, but what really upset him was that his strategy of moving to the south came to naught.

He originally wanted to wait for Li Shimin to defeat Chen Tian, ​​or when both sides were hurt, he would take advantage of the fire to go to Yangzhou and kill Chen Jun by surprise.

Let Nanchen be defeated in an instant, and he can sit and guard the rich land of Jiangdong.

But all of this is now shattered.

"Although Li Shimin is defeated, Li Tang still has an army of 10,000+, and there are two checkpoints at Hangu Pass and Tong Pass, so his strength is still there. If Chen Tian advances aggressively because of his winning streak, he will definitely be defeated. From this point of view, Chen Tian It will take at least a year for Tian to attack Li Tang, so our army still has enough time to plan to go south." Wu Qi looked at the map and said calmly.

"Wu Qi's words are reasonable." Cao Cao nodded slightly, and said, "In this way, Chen Jun and Tang Jun will be in a stalemate, and one will fade away, and our advantage will gradually become prominent."

Cao Cao's brows eased a little, but his gaze towards the west was still a little sad.

Look at Chang'an again.

Inside Tang Palace.

When Li Shimin returned from the defeated army, he was dead and no one spoke.

Li Yuan's face was gloomy, and his ferocious face was constantly twitching and trembling, as if a volcano that had accumulated for a long time was about to erupt.

12 troops, a full 12 troops, less than half a month.

Ninety thousand were wiped out in an instant!And I lost Makino!
Moreover, the failure of this strategy was no longer as simple as Li Yuanji's loss of Xuchang. This failure left Li Tang with only the last 12 troops, and made Li Tang completely passive and beaten.

Recalling Li Shimin's bold words and lofty ambitions before he set off at that time, it seems particularly ironic at this time.

"What's the matter, everyone is holding a dead face, Chen Tian has hit the door of the house!" Li Yuan slapped the desk suddenly, roaring.

Li Shimin had already hid in the crowd.The atmosphere did not dare to take a breath.Head bowed.He didn't dare to look at Li Yuan.He was afraid of being reprimanded by Li Yuan.

Li Yuan was full of fire.There was a moment.I really want to scold Li Shimin bloody.

Several times and three times.Li Yuan's curse words were about to come out.finally.He still held back.

After many defeats, Li Yuan clearly realized Chen Tian's true strength like a needle prick.I also realized that when the morale of the army was frustrated.It is not the time to punish Li Shimin.That will only hurt the morale of the army.

"This king was in a hurry just now. Now that Chen Jun has killed outside of Chang'an, what strategies do you guys have to deal with? Tell me quickly." Li Yuan took a deep breath to calm his anger, and asked in a deep voice.

Everyone was silent.

In the silence, Liu Wenjing sighed: "Chen Tian's resourcefulness is indeed beyond the reach of others. I am afraid that any conspiracy will be useless to him. Maybe we should not confront them head-on. Instead, we should divide our troops into two ways and send The eldest son and the second son will divide their troops into two groups, one will be stationed at Hangu Pass and the other will be stationed at Tongguan, and the two routes will form a corner, so that Chang'an will be safe and secure."

As wise as Liu Wenjing, facing the defeats in these scenes, at this moment, he has to admit that no matter whether it is Li Jiancheng or Li Shimin, their resourcefulness is not as good as Chen Tian's think tank.

Hearing Liu Wenjing's words, Li Shimin's eyes moved.

A trace of disgust flashed in those deep eyes, as if unwilling to admit that he was no longer Chen Tian's opponent in terms of resourcefulness and tactics.

After pondering for a moment, he secretly sighed.

That sigh meant that he didn't want to admit it, but he had to admit it.

He originally thought that joining forces with Zhao Kuangyin would be safe, but he never imagined that Chen Tian would make such a plan for himself halfway, and give himself a trick.

However, listening to Liu Wenjing's suggestion, Li Yuan's brows were full of embarrassment, and now he could not trust these two sons at all.

Both Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin lost to Chen Tian under absolute advantage, which made Li Yuan feel at ease before handing over his troops to these two sons.

"Your Highness, I think what Master Liu said is very true!"

Just at this time, a loud voice came from the crowd, and everyone turned their eyes away, only to see the speaker.

It is Liu Bei!
