Chapter 59 Sun Cao's combined troops broke through Liu Bei and Nan Ye's appointment to fight against Sun Quan 5

Cao Zhang struggled to support more than 30 in front of Zhang Fei, hoping that the left and right soldiers would come to save him. But he didn't know that Zhang Fei also divided his troops and horses to hold the two villages. Cao Zhang didn't see the rescuers. He fought alone and fell behind, so he had to retreat.

Zhang Fei's army and horses surrounded the camp. How could Cao Zhang escape easily? Cao Zhang rushed left and right and was unable to leave the camp, and Zhang Fei chased and strangled Cao soldiers behind him. Seeing that there were fewer and fewer soldiers behind him, Cao Zhang was very anxious. At this time, the northeast corner of Zhang Fei's camp was in chaos. It turned out that it was Ouyue who abandoned the camp and led the soldiers to kill it.

It is impossible for a small number of people left behind to defeat Zhang Fei, and there is no problem to create some chaos behind Zhang Fei's encirclement. Cao Zhang took this opportunity to lead his troops to the northeast, and then he stood out of the encirclement with the troops.

Zhang Fei won a complete victory. While chasing Cao Zhang, he divided his troops and captured the camp on the mountain. Cao Zhang and Ou Yue led the remnants all the way. Zhang Fei recovered the lost land all the way and quickly drove Cao soldiers out of Leping County.

The Northern Han army chased the border, and Zhang Fei secretly thought to himself: Cao Bing crossed the border to grab grain, and now he has been defeated. How can he easily let it go? Although there was no military order for his brother to send troops to attack Cao, he at least once robbed him and recovered his capital. Thinking of this, Zhang Fei led his troops across the border and continued to pursue Cao's army.

After crossing the border, Zhang Fei wanted to plunder some food and grass and return, but Changshan County was in a barren year, and there was no grain left in Xiangting and small counties, so Zhang Fei began to plunder the big city.

Cao Zhang and Kui Yue's military horses were mostly damaged, and they were unable to stop Zhang Fei from crossing the border at all. They had to retreat to Changshan County and send people to send letters to Cao Pi and Sima Yi for help. This time, Zhang Fei and Cao Zhang's offensive was completely reversed and turned into Cao Zhang defending the city and Zhang Fei attacking the city.

Sima Yi has long expected that Cao Zhang is not Zhang Fei's opponent. After all, Zhang Fei is much better than Cao Zhang in martial arts and combat experience, not to mention that Cao's soldiers is not as many as Zhang Fei's subordinates. After receiving Cao Zhang's letter asking for help, Sima Yi smiled without hurry and said, "I have made it!" After saying that, he wrote a letter and ordered Cao Zhang and Kwa Yue to defend the city.

When Cao Chun saw that Sima Yi did not send troops to save him, he couldn't help but worry, "If the governor doesn't send troops, won't Changshan be in danger?"

Sima Yi smiled and said, "Is it that Zi and I don't know how to besiege Wei to save Zhao?"

When Cao Chun heard the words, he suddenly said, "Does the commander-in-chief of the army go straight to Bingzhou? What a wonderful plan!"

Sima Yi nodded and asked Cao Chun to go down to pass the order, naming an army of 150,000, and sent troops from Guangping County to Jinyang, the county of Bingzhou.

Jinyang is today's Taiyuan. After Zhang Fei left the city, only Sun Qian defended the city here. At first, Sun Qian was still a little worried about Zhang Fei's reckless trick, but with the frequent spread of good news, Sun Qian also relieved his heart to deal with government affairs. On this day, Sun Qian was handling official documents in the house, and a gatekeeper reported the emergency military situation.

At the beginning, Sun Qian thought it was the information sent by Zhang Fei, but when he called the messenger to ask, he knew that Cao's soldiers were suppressing the situation, which shocked Sun Qian. Sun Qian contacted Zhang Fei as soon as he saw the letter and sent a letter to Liu Bei for support. 150,000 Cao troops crossed the border, which is not border friction. Obviously, Cao Pi has the intention of occupying the state.

Zhang Fei and Liu Bei got the news almost at the same time. Without saying a word, Zhang Fei abandoned Cao Zhang and retreated back overnight. Liu Bei summoned the generals to discuss countermeasures at the first time.

Now there are only three important ministers left beside Liu Bei. After a while, the three arrived together. After reading Sun Qian's letter of asking for help, Jian Yong said, "No, the three generals have won Sima Yi's plan to transfer the tiger away from the mountain!"

Even if Jian Yong didn't say it, Liu Bei also knew that the situation was not good and said anxiously, "Now that Mr. Kong Ming is leading the army, Yide is helpless. What should we do?"

Chen is the only general around Liu Bei at this time. He immediately left duty and asked for orders, "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry. The last general is willing to lead the troops to help the three generals defend the city."

Liu Bei was very hesitant to invite Chen to fight. Chen to serve as Liu Bei's personal bodyguard for a long time, and the commander Bai Yao elite never left. It can be said that Liu Bei would feel very insecure if Chen was not around, so he asked the two advisers, "Uncle wants to go. What do you think?"

Jian Yong saw that Liu Bei hesitated and knew that there were no generals to send around him, so he said, "Xu Chang is no longer * now. If General Chen goes, Sun Quan will attack, and Xu Chang will be in danger. Why didn't your majesty send Yanzhou and order the second general to lead the troops to rescue?

"No! Yanzhou is a great place, with Cao Pi in the north and Sun Quan in the east. Once the second general goes, Yanzhou will be lost!" Xun Sheng objected without waiting for Liu Bei to speak.

Liu Bei said, "I don't know what tricks Xun Aiqing has?"

Xun said, "Although Cao Pi has surrendered to His Majesty, his hostility to the state has been shown. Although Sun Quan became emperor on his own, there was no conflict with His Majesty before. Now your majesty is Dong and Sun Quan, and Cao Pi in the north. He sent an envoy to Eastern Wu and asked Sun Quan to send troops to attack Ye City and relieve the siege of Bingzhou. Then send General Chen to help the three generals defend the city.

Yuzhou, where Liu Bei is located, only borders Nan Ye and Sun Quan, while Yanzhou, where Guan Yu is located, borders Cao Pi and Sun Quan. Now only Cao Pi is activating troops, so Yanzhou guarded by Guan Yu is more dangerous than Liu Bei's Yuzhou. Xun suggested that Liu Bei send troops from Yuzhou to support Zhang Fei.

Thinking about it, Liu Bei felt that what Xun Qian said was reasonable. Cao Pi has reached the door. At this time, the first task is to guard against Cao Pi, not Sun Quan. Besides, even if Chen is sent, Bai Yu's army is still by his side and protected by Xu Changcheng. It is not easy for someone to hurt Liu Bei. So Liu Bei nodded and said, "According to Xun Aiqing's plan, I don't know who would like to go to Eastern Wu as an envoy?"

Liu Bei usually sends lobbyist, and Jian Yong often comes out. However, since the founding of Sun Quan, the relationship between Sun and Liu has not been as harmonious as before. Both families feel that the other is not orthodox, and diplomatic relations have been interrupted. Jian Yong was not sure to persuade Sun Quan to send troops to attack Cao, so he hesitated for a moment.

Xun Chen's own plan, seeing Jian Yong hesitate again, said, "Weichen would like to go to Eastern Wu to lobby Sun Quan."

When Liu Bei heard the words, he ordered Xun Chenduo to bring gifts to Eastern Wu, and also ordered Chen to lead 50,000 troops to reinforce Bingzhou. In this way, half of Xuchang's garrison was left, leaving only 50,000 soldiers and horses available.

However, Zhang Fei heard that Sima Yi's soldiers besieged Jinyang, so he quickly led the army and returned. Fifty miles away from Jinyang City, suddenly there were shouts of killing on both sides of the road, killing countless Cao soldiers from left and right, cutting Zhang Fei's men and horses into two sections.

Zhang Fei's soldiers were very tired all the way, and they were not guarded against ambush. At that time, they were in chaos. Zhang Fei saw that the soldiers were panicked, pointed their spears and horses, and led the front army back to kill and rescue them. There was no enemy wherever he went.

The two people who ambush Zhang Fei were sent by Sima Yi, Cao Xiu, the coach of the left road, and Cao Zhen, the coach of the right road. Seeing that Zhang Fei was unstoppable, the two worked together to fight Zhang Fei.

The three fought in one place for more than 20 rounds, and Cao Zhen and Cao Xiu were defeated. Zhang Fei rescued the rear army, urged the soldiers to go quickly, and personally cut off the rear.
