It is precisely because of this that Li Xiang received Bai Qi's secret order when he arrived in Xuzhou.
Li Xiang wanted Bai Qi to be prepared to make a sudden attack on Yizhou when he returned to his army, and officially fired the first shot to conquer Shu.
Floating water house and Liu Che's people were fighting in a dark corner of Yizhou. Liu Che himself was not stupid, so he could not feel the murderous intention gradually lingering in the air.
Therefore, in fact, Liu Che had already secretly paid a lot of attention to Jingzhou, Sizhou, Yongzhou, and Liangzhou near Yizhou.
At this time, Bai Qi, who has returned to the army, is the most suitable unit anyway!
In fact, at the beginning, Bai Qi's health didn't have any major problems at all, and it wasn't as serious as it is now. It was just a minor ailment.
But after receiving Li Xiang's secret order, Chen Ping had an idea in his mind, and that's how Bai Qi became now.
Chen Ping originally just wanted Bai Qi to pretend that his condition suddenly worsened. However, Bai Qi believed that a fake is a fake. If he wanted to win people's trust, it would be better to just replace it with the real thing.
After getting sick, it may not be easy to cure the disease. However, if you want to make the condition more serious, it does not seem to be a troublesome thing, at least it is not a difficult thing.
As a result, Li Dangzhi was able to come to see Bai Qi justifiably. Next, it was natural for others to know that Bai Qi was ill.
As a disciple of the miracle doctor Hua Tuo, Li Dangzhi's diagnosis was quite convincing to a certain extent.
In this case, Bai Qi would have a reason to stay in Nanyang for a while.
Secondly, Bai Qi's serious illness was enough to relax some people's attention on him, and Bai Qi also had time to make some arrangements.
"It's okay...ahem...Old General Wang is mature and prudent. It's enough to have him here!" Bai Qi waved his hand.
Regarding the answer given by Bai Qi, Yue Fei didn't have any comments.
After all, his understanding of Wang Jian is limited. At this time, it is difficult to give much advice.
Secondly, in the imperial examination room, he was able to make Li Jing feel happy and fight an equal person, so he had his own ability. This alone is enough to illustrate his ability.
In addition, although Yue Fei did not see Wang Jian's performance in Japan with his own eyes, he had heard about it to some extent.
In this case, it is indeed not impossible for Wang Jian to replace Bai Qi.
"The decoction is ready. This is a wonderful recipe prescribed by Dr. An Shen. Please take it while it's hot!" Wang Jian said as he entered the account.
Although Bai Qi's military position was higher than his own, Wang Jian was already a lot older at this time, and he personally came to bring Bai Qi medicine. This was not something ordinary people could do.
However, the opportunity to lead the army in the first battle against Yizhou is not available to everyone. However, Bai Qi now directly handed over such an opportunity to him.
From this point of view alone, there is actually nothing wrong with Wang Jian's actions.
Moreover, for a general, the opportunity to participate in this battle is too rare. At least, Bai Qi himself would feel regretful if he could not participate in this battle. However, for the sake of the overall situation, he
But he had to give up this opportunity.
This battle is destined to be a large-scale battle involving more than one million people on both sides. After this time, it is really difficult for such a large-scale battle to happen again.
If he misses this opportunity, Bai Qi may not have the opportunity to participate in such a large-scale battle again. This kind of thing will definitely be a regret for a general.
This time to capture the land of Yizhou, the main battlefields were in Hanzhong, Jiange, and Mianzhu. They were all dangerous areas where only one man could guard the pass and no one could attack. If you were not careful, your whole army would be in danger of being destroyed.
Therefore, the Jin army had already been prepared for bloodshed.
The total amount of troops planned to be used this time to attack Yizhou is far from what it can be compared to the previous times.
Moreover, what Li Xiang, Bai Qi, Yue Fei, Li Jing, Zhang Liang, Liu Bowen, Guan Zhong and others are most worried about is the situation in Jingzhou!
The roads in Yizhou are rugged and the environment is blocked, making it difficult for the army to enter and even more difficult to get out. Once a large number of elite Jin troops penetrate deep into the Yizhou Basin and entangle themselves with Liu Che, Jingzhou will become a huge weakness for Li Xiang.
Both Bingzhou and Sizhou are garrisoned at Xiongguan, so they definitely have their own advantages. However, the situation here in Jingzhou is different. After all, it will become a target for other princes to attack hard.
However, if Li Xiang captured Yizhou first, he would have to capture Jingzhou in advance. Capturing this place would be equivalent to having two more routes to attack Yizhou.
It is precisely because of these two additional routes that Li Xiang can give full play to his advantages. If there are not these two routes, then it is Liu Che's side who can give full play to his advantages.
In a sense, although this battle seems to be an attack on Yizhou, the more critical one is in Jingzhou. It depends on whether Yue Fei can withstand the pressure here!
If Yue Fei withstood the pressure and persisted until the battle of Yizhou ended, it didn't matter even if Jingzhou was almost defeated. As long as he persisted until that time, it would be a hearty victory for the Jin army.
According to this statement, Jingzhou is actually being exchanged for Yizhou. On the surface, it seems that there is no benefit, but in fact, this is not how the account is calculated.
For the Jin army, the difficulty of taking Yizhou was far from the difficulty of taking Jingzhou. It was comparable.
If Yizhou can be captured, the biggest stumbling block on the road to unifying the Jin army will be removed by him.
Moreover, exchanging one state for another is just a very bad situation. The exact price depends on Yue Fei's ability to withstand pressure?
Besides, even if you really trade one state for another, with Yizhou, you will have a natural advantage against Jingzhou.
In the original Three Kingdoms era, why did Soochow Wu fall out with Liu Bei at a critical moment, which ultimately led to Guan Yu's tragedy?
The geographical location of both parties may also be one of the reasons.
At that time, Liu Bei, who occupied the land of Jingyi, had too great a geographical advantage over Soochow.
Occupying the position east of Jiangdong and occupying Jingzhou in its upper reaches has always been a problem they cannot avoid.
