The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 494 The Situation in Hanzhong
If it is inferred according to common sense, Cao Cao and Chen Ziming's hundreds of thousands of troops will face each other in Liangzhou. It will be impossible to tell the winner without more than half a year. A battle like this may last for a year or two.

Even if there is a winner at that time, it stands to reason that no matter who wins the final victory, it should be a miserable victory, with a big drop in strength, exhausted soldiers, and powerlessness to intervene in the battle of Yizhou.It was because of this that Sun Quan dared to attack Yizhou.

"How is the current situation in Hanzhong?"

What Chen Ziming is most concerned about is Hanzhong. If Hanzhong is lost, then there will be troubles for using troops in Yizhou. If Hanzhong falls into Liu Zhang's hands, it's okay, just fight it again. Yizhou soldiers and horses can't stop Liu Bei's army at all.

If Hanzhong falls into the hands of Cao Cao, it will be troublesome. Unless Chen Ziming wants to have another decisive battle with Cao Cao, Chen Ziming will not move Hanzhong.Even if Cao Cao is defeated, it is impossible to give up the Hanzhong he has obtained. Cao Cao is not without the power to fight again, and his strength is still there.

"The situation is fine. Sun Quan attacked Yizhou. Liu Zhang had no intention of continuing to attack Hanzhong. He intended to take back the soldiers and horses that attacked Hanzhong. Recently, the soldiers and horses of Yizhou did not continue to attack the city." Tian Feng smiled slightly. Everything was going in a good direction. The Yizhou army Once withdrawn, Hanzhong will be firm.

"Wenpin, what is he doing with the [-] Cao Jun in his hand?" Chen Ziming asked Tian Feng suspiciously.

Tian Feng frowned and said: "Bings stationed in Dingjun Mountain, drilled every day, one hundred thousand elite, no damage at all!"

Cao Cao's general Wenpin led the troops to attack Hanzhong, and he didn't show much before and after. He didn't participate in a big battle, just like going on a tour.But no one dared to underestimate Wenpin. Cao Cao had countless good generals, but let Wenpin lead the army alone, which shows the status and ability of Wenpin in Cao Cao's eyes.

"If we lose to Cao Cao, or are restrained by Cao Cao in Liangzhou, then Hanzhong will definitely fall into the hands of Wenpin!" Chen Ziming can be sure that Wenpin has been waiting for an opportunity to take Hanzhong easily.

If they failed to repel Cao Cao, regardless of whether Sun Quan sent troops to attack Yizhou in Jiangdong, Hanzhong would eventually be taken by Wenpin. , Yizhou soldiers and horses must be seriously injured, can they still stop Wenpin's [-] elites?

Even Wenpin will eat Yizhou's soldiers and horses in one bite, not only taking Hanzhong, but also weakening Yizhou's strength. When Cao Cao takes Liangzhou and then attacks Yizhou, the ending will be perfect.

"There is no movement, but Cao Cao was defeated. General Taishi sent troops to the north. Hanzhong is no longer alone. Now Sun Quan is attacking Yizhou again. Once Yizhou's troops are withdrawn, Wenpin will face General Huang alone. The chances of winning are not great. Even if he defeats Huang General, it was a disastrous victory, at that time we were sending troops to reinforce Hanzhong, Wenpin had no choice but to lose." Tian Feng slowly analyzed the situation in Hanzhong.

"From this point of view, Wenpin can only save [-] Cao troops by choosing to retreat..."

Cao Cao was defeated in Qinchuan, losing nearly [-] soldiers and horses. If the [-] soldiers and horses in Wenpin's hands were also killed, Cao Cao would definitely hurt his roots, and it would not be possible to restore his previous strength in three to five years.

Regardless of the fact that Cao Cao still has about 50 soldiers and horses in his hands, Cao Cao's enemies are stronger. Even in the hands of Jiangdong Sun Quan, he only has [-] soldiers and horses coming and going.

The most important thing is that whether it is Cao Cao or Sun Quan, due to the concentration and expansion in a short period of time, almost all the young and strong in their territories have been recruited, and they have reached the point where they have no soldiers to call. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are aggressive.In other words, no matter how rich Cao Cao is now, he can't recruit soldiers and horses.

What Cao Cao has to do now is not to continue to fight, but to preserve his strength and strive to protect himself. If he takes Liangzhou and gets the population of Liangzhou, Cao Cao can continue to expand his troops, but he failed. Not only did he not take Liangzhou, It even lost [-] troops.

If Wenpin does not withdraw his troops, Chen Ziming is sure that the [-] Cao troops in Wenpin's hands will stay in Hanzhong. Liu Bei's previous defeat to Cao Cao was not due to lack of strength, but a shortage of food and grass. Now that there is enough food and grass, it is really worthy of Cao Cao.

Liu Bei sent Tai Shici to lead an army of [-] to Liangzhou, and Liangzhou still had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. In this way, Chen Ziming could easily deploy [-] troops into Hanzhong, cooperate with the Huang Zhong army in Hanzhong, and eat Wenzhou in one bite. It is still possible to hire the [-] soldiers and horses in hand.

As for the safety of Beidi and Liangzhou, there is no need to worry about it now. The million-strong army in Liu Bei's hands is just a display?If it weren't for the lack of food and grass, Cao Cao might not even have the courage to launch a war.

If Cao Cao dared to move to the west and wanted to cut off the roads between Liangzhou and Bingzhou like last time, he would be courting death.If Liu Bei is angered again at this time, maybe Liu Bei will take advantage of Sun Quan's opportunity to attack Yizhou, and a million troops will come out to completely kill Cao Cao.

Of course, Cao Cao is not an idiot. Once Yizhou retreats, Cao Cao will definitely let Wenpin withdraw from Hanzhong to preserve his strength.

"Although Cao Cao is newly defeated, it is absolutely impossible for us to let us occupy Yizhou. Wenpin's [-] troops will definitely be stationed outside Hanzhong. If we attack Yizhou, he will probably send troops to Hanzhong again to contain us. "Hanzhong Cao Cao can not, but Yizhou can not fall into the hands of Liu Bei, this may be Cao Cao's bottom line.

Cao Cao will not let Yizhou fall into Liu Bei's hands. If Yizhou becomes Liu Bei's, then Cao Cao really can only wait to die. Of course, he can also join forces with Sun Quan to fight against Liu Bei, but Liu Bei who won Yizhou is more powerful than Liu Bei. Soaring, I am afraid that at that time, Cao Cao and Sun Quan would not be able to defeat Liu Bei.

"Why don't Xuzhou and Youzhou send troops to attack Yuzhou, Yanzhou and other places..." Tian Feng also thought of the possibility of Cao Cao sending troops, and immediately came up with a solution.

"Yuzhou has Lejin, and Yanzhou has Cao Ren. There are not enough troops to pose a threat. If all the troops are sent out, Cao Cao may react violently. Once the restraint becomes a decisive battle, it will be out of control." Chen Ziming shook his head, restraining Cao Cao, no so easy.

Now Cao Cao is angry, his son and his confidant general died, and there is a lot of resentment in his heart. If Liu Bei sends a large army to attack Yuzhou and Yanzhou at this time, maybe Cao Cao's head will get hot, and it is not impossible to fight Liu Bei with his family.

Chen Ziming is not afraid to fight to the death. After all, Liu Bei's current strength is far above Cao Cao's. The chances of winning are great, but it's not worth it. Don't look at Cao Cao's current weakness, but he's not weak enough to let Liu Bei handle it.

Liu Bei dared to fight Cao Cao to death, even if Cao Cao was finally killed, Liu Bei himself would definitely lose a few big teeth.

The final result is likely to be that Cao Cao was completely killed by Liu Bei, and Liu Bei himself suffered heavy losses and his strength dropped drastically. Even if he occupied Cao Cao's current territory, he would not be able to recover his strength for a while.
