Gan Ning's Jinfan Navy took the water route to directly attack Jianye, the capital of Wei State. This was exactly what Liu Feng had planned with Guo Jia and Xun Yu before setting off.

The day before Liu Feng was preparing to go on a personal expedition, Xun Yu found Liu Feng and asked Liu Feng:"Now our army has gained a clear advantage on the Xuzhou front line against Wei.

Your Majesty will go to Xuzhou at this time. Meng Qi, Yuan Zhi and others will inevitably Being greatly encouraged, and the other soldiers want to show themselves in front of His Majesty, they will inevitably burst into combat effectiveness far beyond ordinary.

In this case, our army will definitely turn its advantage into victory.

But has Your Majesty ever thought about it? , if our army's offensive is unstoppable by then, Wei will definitely not sit still and wait for death, so what will Cao Cao do to deal with it?"

Liu Feng couldn't help but be stunned after hearing Xun Yu's words. If he personally conquered the country, the morale of the Long Kingdom soldiers would definitely be improved. It rose sharply and then gained an even greater advantage, which he had long expected.

But he really didn't think about how Cao Cao would respond.

So Liu Feng replied:"I don't know what Cao Cao will do, but no matter what he does, he can't change Wei's defeat. I will definitely finish his work in one battle and destroy Wei."

Xun Yu listened to Liu Feng After hearing Xun Yu 's words, he bowed and said:"Your Majesty's determination, Yu naturally knows, and Yu has thought of a strategy that can help your Majesty destroy the Wei Kingdom faster." After hearing Xun

Yu's words, Liu Feng couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked:"If Wen Ruo has any clever ideas, please tell me quickly."

Faced with Liu Feng's inquiry, Xun Yu said calmly:"First of all, we should think in advance that His Majesty will visit the battlefield in person. The combat effectiveness of our soldiers has greatly increased. What will Cao Cao do? Action.

In Yu's opinion, if His Majesty's personal expedition has boosted morale, then Cao Cao will definitely be inspired, and there is more than a 90% chance that he will follow His Majesty's personal expedition.

Once Cao Cao does this, the Wei army's combat effectiveness will also be improved. At this time, Our army should temporarily cease the war and avoid its edge.

And as Cao Cao leads the army away from Jianye, Jianye's defense will definitely become very empty. This wine gives our army the opportunity to directly seize Jianye.

Your Majesty, don't forget, General Gan Ning's Jinfan Navy is on standby at any time, ready to go into battle.

Wei State's National Jianye was built adjacent to the Yangtze River, and the water of its moat was introduced from the Yangtze River. If General Gan led the Jinfan Navy along the Yangtze River Directly embedded in the Jianye moat, launching a surprise attack on Jianye will definitely have an unexpected effect."

After hearing Xun Yu's words, Liu Feng was overjoyed, and with Gan Ning's 30,000 Jinfan army, he captured the empty Jianye city and Not difficult.

Therefore, before setting off, Liu Feng ordered Gan Ning to quietly enter the Yangtze River from the East China Sea with 30,000 Jinfan troops, and ambush in the waters near Jianye.

After his army arrives, if Cao Cao leaves with the Jianye garrison, he will wait for him for two days, then sail his ships into the moat and attack the city with all his strength.

Therefore, after Ma Chao's vanguard army encountered stubborn resistance, Liu Feng did not rush to lead the main army to support, but waited for news from Gan Ning.

After all, it was when the Wei army was at its peak, and a head-on confrontation with it would inevitably cause unnecessary losses.

When both Liu Feng and Ma Chao stood still, Cao Cao and Xi Zhicai were not only very confused, but Cao Cao also asked Xi Zhicai to analyze why Liu Feng stood still.

But at that time, Xi Zhicai did not think that the Dragon Kingdom would attack Jianye by water, because from Qingzhou to Jianye, one had to pass through the East China Sea, and Xi Zhicai did not know that the Dragon Kingdom had already built warships that could sail in the sea.

Although the Dragon Kingdom warships were used against Yuan Shao, they were only responsible for transporting soldiers and did not engage in combat, so Xi Zhicai did not know about it.

Therefore, facing Cao Cao's questions, Xi Zhicai didn't know the reason.

He thought about various possibilities, and finally said to Cao Cao:"Perhaps the Dragon Emperor thought that your Majesty was leading the expedition in person, and our army's morale was strong, so he didn't want to fight with our army at this time. As the saying goes, one can gain momentum, and then it will weaken again, and all three will be exhausted. , he must be waiting for the morale of our army to decline again before launching an attack.

However, our army was already at a disadvantage, and its morale fell to the bottom. Now with the help of His Majesty's personal expedition, the morale has improved, and they Not attacking just gave our army an opportunity.

Your Majesty only needs to send people to publicize that it is because the Dragon Emperor is afraid of you, so he temporarily stopped the attack. This will not only not reduce the morale of our army, but will also help to increase the morale.."

After hearing what Xi Zhicai said, Cao Cao felt that it was very reasonable, so he didn't pay attention to it. He just found someone to propagate according to what Xi Zhicai said that the Dragon Emperor was afraid of the Wei Emperor and did not dare to attack.

However, all the beautiful fantasies of Cao Cao and Xi Zhicai came to an abrupt end when the imperial city guards came to report that Jinfan Army was attacking Jianye.

After hearing the news, Cao Cao was filled with disbelief. The moat was diverted from the Yangtze River. If the Dragon Kingdom navy could reach Jianye, they must have come across the sea.

But how is it possible? Does the Dragon Kingdom already have ships that can sail in the sea?

Even if Cao Cao didn't want to believe it, it was the fact after all. In desperation, he had no choice but to bring his army back to aid Jianye.

However, once Cao Cao's army left, Liu Feng was given a chance.

Moreover, after Cao Cao's army retreated, the news of the surprise attack on the capital spread like waterweed among the Xuzhou defenders.

In an instant, the morale of the Wei army fell to the bottom again.

Naturally, Liu Feng would not miss this opportunity. Immediately, Ma Chao's vanguard army launched a fierce attack. At the same time, he himself also led the main army to march quickly.

The two sides, who were originally evenly matched, instantly turned into a one-sided situation.

Facing the million-strong army of the Dragon Kingdom, all the soldiers of the Wei Kingdom were powerless to fight back. Even before the Dragon Kingdom's army arrived, they followed Cao Cao's footsteps and abandoned the city and fled.

In this way, Liu Feng captured the entire territory of Xuzhou without bloodshed, and even followed Cao Cao's army all the way to Yangzhou.

Even in Yangzhou, the home base of Wei State, the Dragon State army was still unstoppable, and it took only two days to capture Jiujiang County.

Later, after Liu Feng left thousands of people to guard Jiujiang, he ordered the army to move forward. A few days later, the Long Kingdom army arrived at Lujiang County.

In order to rescue Jianye, Cao Cao had just passed by Lujiang with his army, and he didn't even ask Cao Cao about his purpose.

Therefore, the defenders of Lujiang did not know that Jianye was being besieged, and thought that Cao Cao had been defeated by the Dragon Emperor and escaped.

Because of this, the resistance in Lujiang County was still not fierce. Within two days, Lujiang also became the territory of the Dragon Kingdom.

However, what made Cao Cao even more desperate was that before he arrived, news came that Jianye had been breached.

Cao Cao had no choice but to lead his army eastward, enter Wu County, and move the capital to Wu County to govern Wu County.
