Chapter 204
After Zhang Zhao left, Liu Jue returned to the backyard and came to Xiao Qiao's yard.
At this moment, the time is close to evening, and Xiao Qiao is doing a female celebrity, with a quiet appearance, which makes people can't bear to be disturbed.
"Husband!" Xiao Qiao saw Liu Jue coming, and immediately put down the work he was doing, and shouted in a coquettish voice.
Liu Jue walked over directly, grabbed Xiao Qiao's waist, and asked, "Where are your sister and Mrs. Xu?"
"They're gone. Xiao Qiao leaned into Liu Jue's arms.
"Why don't you keep them for dinner?" Liu Jue asked casually.
"I told her, but my sister didn't think it was good, so she left with her. Xiao Qiao looked at Liu Jue and replied softly.
"The next time she comes, you tell her directly that everyone is a family, and you don't have to be so angry. Liu Jue said as he thought about the possibility of Cao Cao attacking from Chaisang.
Hearing the words 'family', Xiao Qiao looked a little strange, and said to Liu Jue: "I know." "
Liu Jue stretched his waist and naturally lay down half-lying, at this time Xiao Qiao was kneeling and sitting, so he put the pillow on Xiao Qiao's elastic thighs and enjoyed Xiao Qiao's knee pillow.
Pillowed on Xiao Qiao's round thighs, Liu Jue rubbed it very comfortably, and at the same time thought about every detail of the Battle of Chibi according to his memory.
In the battle of Chibi in history, the combined forces of Sun and Liu went up the river and met Cao's army in Chibi, and the two sides had their first battle, as a result of which Cao Cao was defeated and retreated to Wulin.
Since the soldiers in the north were not accustomed to riding on ships, Cao Cao ordered that the end of the ships be connected to reduce the turbulence of the wind and waves, and the men and horses walked on the ship as if they were on the ground.
At this time, Huang Gai said: "Now that the enemy is outnumbered, it is difficult to hold each other for a long time. The Cao army is connecting the warships together, end to end, and can attack and defeat the Cao army with fire. "
Then Huang Gai deceived Cao Cao and burned the Cao army's warships with fire, and then Cao Cao was defeated and took Huarong Road.
That is to say, the Battle of Chibi in history was simply an encounter battle, and Cao Cao's focus was not here, but due to the unfavorable initial battle, he temporarily repaired in Wulin, but Zhou Yu seized the opportunity.
This discovery made Liu Jue feel a pang in his heart, he had a preconceived idea before, and it was reasonable to think that Cao Cao had a high chance of attacking Chibi.
But Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong didn't understand it, because in their opinion, there was nothing special about this place in Chibi, and if Cao Cao landed from here, it would not be in line with the maximization of strategic benefits.
If Cao Cao landed at Chibi, the defenders of the public security and Xiakou would also be able to react quickly.
The crossing of the river by an army of 180,000 is not something that can be completed in a period of time, and if Liu Jue advances by land and water at this time, Cao Jun is afraid that he will suffer a big loss.
If it is Liu Jue, most of them will choose the public security, Xiakou, and of course, Chaisang.
The public security is the closest to Gangneung, and you can directly attack here by crossing the river from Gangneung, but the value of attacking here is actually not so high.
Xiakou is a bit special, because from Xiangyang down the Han River, you can directly reach Xiakou, and it is a strategic place in Jiangxia.
Liu Jue has received information that Cao Cao's troops stationed in Jiangling are only about 100,000 in total, and the rest are still in Xiangyang.
Cao Cao's two-way army is likely to be directed at Xiakou from different directions.
The last is Chaisang, not to mention the particularity here, if Cao Cao takes Chaisang, Jiangdong will be directly shaken, and Sun Quan will surrender.
If Cao Cao's two armies attacked Xiakou and Chaisang respectively, it would be a bit interesting.
Once Cao Cao takes these two places, it is equivalent to mastering the fate of Jingzhou and Jiangdong, if Liu Jue does not have any means, he may only have to go to the treasure island by boat.
Xiao Qiao looked down at Liu Jue, and saw that he seemed to be thinking about something, so he didn't bother quietly, but Liu Jue's handsome face made her look a little stupid.
At this time, Liu Jue suddenly thought of history, Cao Cao wrote a letter to Sun Quan before the Battle of Chibi: Recently, he was resigned from the crime, and Liu Cong was restrained. There are 800,000 people in the Imabari water army, and Fang and the general will hunt in Wu.
This letter was accused by many people of being inexplicably written, believing that it was an important evidence of Cao Cao's pride and underestimating the enemy, and that it was also considered to be a turning point for Sun and Liu to unite.
But Liu Jue will not underestimate Cao Cao so much, this person can use a letter to disintegrate the alliance of Han Sui and Ma Chao, and write a letter to Sun Quan before the war, is it just for pride and complacency?
Liu Jue carefully recalled these words, Cao Cao claimed to have an army of 800,000, of course, there were certainly not so many, but Cao Cao deliberately said this to Sun Quan, which was obviously to intimidate Sun Quan.
Liu Jue clearly remembered that in history, after Sun Quan received this letter, he showed this letter to his subordinates, and all the ministers in Jiangdong were frightened, and Zhang Zhao directly proposed to surrender Cao.
This is Cao Cao's first purpose in writing this letter, to disrupt and divide Sun Quan's camp, to achieve a surrender without a fight, and even if this is not done, it can create internal and external pressure on Sun Quan, thus interfering with Sun Quan's decision-making ability.
After all, Cao Cao wrote in the letter, but it was 800,000 sailors, plus Cao Cao's soldiers were in their prime, could Sun Quan not be afraid when he saw it?
Even if Sun Quan didn't believe it in his heart, he was still a little afraid, and most of them would not send a naval army to fight, and Cao Cao's resistance to crossing the river was much smaller.
If it weren't for Lu Su and Zhou Yu, Sun Quan would probably have surrendered at that time.
There is also a very important sentence, that is, the last sentence 'Fang and the general will hunt in Wu'
On the surface, this Cao Cao is a declaration of war on Sun Quan, but if you think about it carefully, could this be Cao Cao's hint that he is going to attack from Chaisang.
The best place to hunt in Wu and attack Jiangdong is to attack Chaisang.
The more Liu Jue thought about it, the more frightened he felt, he almost fell into the history books and couldn't get out, if he focused on Chibi and stared at Cao Cao crossing the river, not only could he not let Cao Cao fall into a big position, but he might also let himself fall into passivity.
"It's so dangerous!" Liu Jue couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and at the same time there was some excitement, Cao Cao's strategic intentions were actually guessed by himself.
Liu Jue didn't dare to say that it was 100% right, but according to the content of the letter, he thought that it was at least eighty percent right.
In this way, his attention should be placed on Xiakou and Chaisang, and the public security will let Wen Ping guard it, and the 20,000 army is definitely enough, and all its troops will be transferred to these two places.
Moreover, Liu Jue's secret weapon must also be transferred as soon as possible, otherwise it will be too late when Cao Cao crosses the river in these two places.
"Okay, you Cao Mengde, you have such a big appetite, you want to strangle me and Sun Quan with one move, but I'm afraid it's not so easy. Liu Jue sneered.
