In the dark night, Gao Shun quietly left Hangu Pass with 800 cavalry in the trap camp, already 5000, and ran towards Wancheng.

As for the rest of the army at Hangu Pass, it was divided into several waves and quietly set off towards Laoshan.

Although the actions of the two routes are very secretive, there is no airtight wall in the world, and the eyeliner sent by Cao Cao still found some clues.

Although it is not clear about the specific arrangements, it is also clear that Liu Bian's actions have been reported.

Luoyang City.

Cao Cao's mansion.

After getting the news of Hangu Pass, Cao Cao brought Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai, Cheng Yu, and Zhou Yu together.

Above the hall, Cao Cao frowned and said, "Liu Bian's actions are much faster than we thought, and his courage is much bigger than we thought. 35

"I don't care about Guanzhong, in addition to that, I have the idea of ​​attacking Wancheng."

After listening to these 23 words, Guo Jia frowned and sighed for a moment: "He is putting pressure on us, so that we dare not make any movement, it seems that we can't take care of the dispatch of troops to Qingzhou now!

They were all smart people on the field, so they naturally knew what Guo Jia meant in his words.

Compared with Qingzhou, Luoyang City is undoubtedly much more important, so if you want to choose, even a fool can make the right choice.

"Although our people have found out that there are troops in both directions, we don't know how many of them are there. Will he want Wancheng to detour us from behind?" Cao Cao said solemnly.

Sometimes there is not enough information, and we can only guess and guess, and only in this way can we be more proficient in controlling the overall situation.

After listening, Zhou Yu pondered for a moment: "It's true and false, false and true, it is impossible to send Liu Bian to attack Wancheng in a big way, but this news is not sure, when there is no certainty, Luoyang's army is still not sure. able to move."

"As long as Luoyang City is lost, it will be even more difficult for us to regain it."

After saying this, Zhou Yu continued: "Duke Cao, I don't know how Wancheng arranged it? Can you stop Liu Bian's attack?"

Cao Cao nodded and smiled: "Gong Jin can rest assured, I have arranged 30,000 elite soldiers there, as long as Liu Bian doesn't invade, there is no danger at all.

"If he really dared to put his main force in Jingzhou, wouldn't that be what we wanted? It just so happened that he could send troops to Xuzhou and Qingzhou.

Cao Cao's determination made Zhou Yu a lot easier.

After these days of understanding, he is also aware of Cao Cao's temperament, as long as it is from his mouth, there is basically no problem.

"So we can only continue to wait, waiting for Liu Bian to show his feet.

Guo Jia made the final conclusion.

The people present glanced at each other and nodded, but most of them looked helpless.

Hanzhong.

Inside the Prefect's Mansion.

When Liu Bian sent troops to Hangu Pass, Liu Bei also happened to get the news.

After he got this news, he who had been holding his troops all the time, couldn't wait to call his three brothers together with Ma Liang, a counselor he had recently recruited.

Soon, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Ma Liang all came to Liu Bei's study.

After finishing the basic news, Liu Bei turned his attention to Ma Liang and Guan Yu. As for Zhang Fei, he didn't have much hope.

Guan Yu glanced at Ma Liang and saw that he was pondering, Guan Yu said: "Brother, since Chang'an City is empty, we can rescue the emperor Liu Xie, so that we have the capital to fight against Liu Bian politically, It is also more able to convince the people of the world.35

"The second one is that the lips are dead and the teeth are cold. Since we and Cao Cao have already stood on a united front, we should send troops to help him, otherwise, when Liu Bian frees up his hands, everything will really be over."

At this time, Guan Yu had been immersed in Liu Bei for more than a year, and all things were basically considered for Liu Bei, and even his allegiance to the big man in his heart had disappeared a lot.

Liu Bei was very satisfied with Guan Yu's words, he smiled and nodded: "What Yun Chang said is not bad, I think we have been recuperating since we got Hanzhong last year, and now that there is peace in Hanzhong, Liu Yan from Yizhou is even more supportive. I have given a lot of support from 350 people. If there is no movement, I am afraid that I will not be able to see it.

"At that point we won't be able to speak anymore, so we have to act.

"Ji Chang (Ma Liang's word), what do you think?"

After Liu Bei finished his last words, he set his eyes on Ma Liang.

After hearing Liu Bei's question, Ma Liang came back to his senses. He nodded with a smile: "My lord's words are not bad, but in fact, the considerations are a little one-sided. 39

"Liu Bian is our great enemy, but he is not the only enemy.

"Is Liu Yan sincere to us? If we are still useful now and can defend the gate of Yizhou for him, it can be said that he will not give us any support at all.

"Instead of doing something unsure, it would be better to hold the benefits that can be obtained first."

"Huh? 35

Liu Bei couldn't hide the excitement in his eyes, but he had no choice but to hide it, his eyes were still calm, like a pool of water.

"What does Ji Chang mean by this?
