Liu Bei was so depressed that he didn't expect to be scolded by this traitor again.
Then I thought about it, no matter how nicknamed Liu Sanqian, he was better than Sun Shiwan!
"Sir, it seems that Sun Quan's defeat at Hefei was already expected by you?"
Fazheng asked in confusion: "Think about Sun Quan, but he claims to have a hundred thousand people. Even if it is a hundred thousand pigs, if Zhang Liao kills them, it will take a while!"
Guan Yu looked at his eldest brother Liu Bei unconsciously.
"Yun Chang! What do you think my brother will do?"
"Brother, you are worrying too much. I am worried that you will be hurt by Yu Jin!"
Guan Yu caressed his beautiful beard and said with a smile: "Sun Quan, a kid who doesn't know how to fight, should be defeated like this!"
Liu Mang nodded and said: "Zhang Liao can achieve this thanks to his second uncle!"
"In the Battle of White Horse, when my second uncle killed Yan Liang, Zhang Liao was the one who killed him."
"Now that I have learned the art of war from my second uncle, won't I use it on Tadun and Sun Quan?"
Guan Yu only felt that his face was bright, and when he was feeling proud, he heard Liu Mang laugh and say: "Zhang Liaoyong is not as good as his second uncle, but he has never been a fool..."
Rebellious son!
Liu Bei and Guan Yu said in unison, Liu Bei didn't care and just smiled.
"Among the five good generals, Yu Jin is calm and resolute, Xu Huang is rigorous in running the army, Le Jin is brave and brave, and Zhang Liao is invincible."
When Liu Mang said this, Zhang He was a little anxious. He was also one of the five good generals.
"Sir, please speak up. Don't forget that you still have me!"
"Forget it, you're not one of them, why bother asking?"
Looking at Zhang He's curious eyes, Liu Mang said helplessly: "Zhang He became famous by chance!"
Zhang He was a little confused and felt that it was not a good word.
"Junyi, don't think too much. General Huang looked at Xia Houyuan that day. You were able to withdraw your troops calmly. Who can compare with your ability to adapt to the situation?"
Zhang He wanted to cry but had no tears. If possible, he would rather not have this so-called coincidence!
"Xiaozhi, please follow me back to Jiameng Pass. Zhuge's military advisor has dispatched troops. It's time for us to fight Cao Cao to the death."
Liu Bei said with confidence: "Mang'er, I will hand over the Han River to you to garrison!"
Liu Mang smiled and said: "Dad, you have finally grown up and know that you don't know how to fight!"
Liu Bei was furious and walked away, followed by Guan Yu.
Fazhengze held Fuchen in his hand, bowed to Liu Mang and then left.
"General Huang, Jun Yi, we are ready to fight Cao Jun again!"
"Sir, Cao Cao's army has suffered a new defeat. Even Cao Cao's son Cao Pi was killed by you. How can they have the courage to come?"
Huang Zhong sighed: "What a pity, if Cao Cao can come to Dingjun Mountain once, I guarantee that he will never come back!"
Zhang He said cautiously: "Cao Pi will definitely retaliate and regain his face."
"Especially Cao Zhang, Cao Zhi also followed him on the expedition! For the sake of his position as the heir apparent, Cao Pi will never allow repeated defeats!"
Zhang He's analysis was clear and logical, and Liu Mang and Huang Zhong nodded in agreement.
"However, according to my understanding of King Wei's camp, as long as the clan is defeated, they will find a general with a foreign surname to clean up the mess!"
In Zhang He's mind, he thought of his former good brothers.
"Sir, I think my opponent in this battle must be Xu Huang!"
…
Han River, Cao Jun camp.
Cao Pi rushed for more than thirty miles before being stopped by Cao Zhang.
"Brother! Where are you running to?"
"Where is Liu Bei's ambush?"
Cao Zhi finally caught up with Cao Pi and was panting.
"Brother, the battle hasn't started yet, but I just saw the enemy's flag. Why did you run away?"
"We lost our troops and generals in this battle, and Li Tong was also killed by Liu Mang!"
"If my father knew about it, he would definitely blame me!"
Cao Pi rolled his eyes and quickly thought of an excellent solution.
"Ziwen, you lead the troops and send Xu Huang to fight against Liu Mang!"
"Vow to take back the Hanshui camp so that our army can quickly transport food!"
"If you win, my brother will show you my merits. If you don't win, Xu Huang will make a mistake for you!"
Cao Zhang frowned. He was an upright warrior, and he had fought against Wu Huan on the border before.
Now facing Liu Mang, Cao Pi taught him how to shirk the blame before even fighting. How could he be happy?
"Brother."
Seeing Cao Zhang's displeasure, Cao Zhi seized the opportunity and said with a smile: "My second brother is brave and good at fighting. Even Wuhuan in the north is no match for him!"
"Why don't we let my second brother fight Liu Mang? Even if we lose, we can just wait for my father to come from Chang'an and fight Liu Bei to the death."
madness!
Cao Pi sneered and said: "Okay, since you two don't listen to me, please do it yourself!"
"If Ziwen is defeated, I will report the truth to my father!"
Although Cao Pi was not good at fighting, he was definitely a good player in political struggles.
If Cao Zhang lost the battle, he would take the opportunity to complain to Cao Cao, saying that it was Cao Zhi who ordered it.
In this way, he not only expresses his foresight as an elder brother, but also embarrasses Cao Zhi in front of his father. It is simply killing two birds with one stone.
"Brother, be careful. Everything will be done as you say."
Cao Zhang reluctantly agreed, and Cao Pi smiled and said: "Be obedient, this is my good brother!"
While speaking, he looked at Cao Zhi intentionally or unintentionally, obviously hinting at the other person.
"Ziwen, Zhongda recommended a person to me named Wang Ping!"
"It is said that this person cannot read ten big characters, but he has the talent of military strategy."
"Zhongda is very optimistic about this person, so I will leave it to you to make meritorious deeds."
Cao Zhang misunderstood Cao Pi at this moment, thinking that the other party was trying to insert connections into the army.
"Forget it, just listen to big brother's arrangements for everything!"
Cao Pi left with satisfaction, while Cao Zhang conveniently threw Wang Ping to Xu Huang.
Anyway, the person who really took the blame for the war was Xu Gongming. What does it have to do with him, Cao Ziwen?
In the military camp.
Xu Huang saw Wang Ping and asked with a smile: "Zijun, after our army entered Hanzhong, it can be said that they have been defeated in consecutive battles!"
"I wonder if Zijun has any ideas to help me? Even if I can defeat Liu Mang once, I can combat his arrogance!"
Wang Ping stepped forward and presented the map of Hanzhong.
"General, please see, our army is adjacent to the Han River. If we want to occupy this place, we must defeat Liu Mang."
"Back then, Han Xin adopted a desperate strategy and boosted the morale of the army in order to defeat his opponent."
"Liu Mang will win consecutive battles and will underestimate the enemy's advance. Our army only needs to lure him to the Han River for a decisive battle!"
Hearing this, Xu Huang frowned and said: "In the past, Han Xin suspected that the enemy would use this trick without any plan. Now Liu Mang is cunning. If he sees through this trick, wouldn't our army be..."
Wang Ping explained patiently: "General, if Liu Mang is cautious and does not follow our army, we will withdraw our troops."
"It's easy to explain even to Mr. Ziwen! If you stick to the camp and don't come out, you may be punished by him!"
"Then if Liu Mang really dares to come and break our army's backwater formation, isn't he playing into the general's ambition?"
"I have always heard that the King of Wei praised the general for being like Zhou Yafu. When I see him today, he is no less generous than the military immortal Han Xin!"
Xu Huang was overjoyed when he heard this and said: "Okay, I will follow Zijun's plan and lure Liu Mang to come to Hanshui to fight!"
Wang Ping smiled in his heart and said: "This person has been fooled!"
