Chapter 552: Yuan Yao sent troops
Yuan Tan Gongzi, who had been living very comfortably in Yuan Shaojun's camp, had been in trouble recently, because Cao Cao had asked someone to send a letter to his desk.
Seeing the letter sent to him by Cao Cao, Yuan Tan's whole face changed, which was frightened, and his whole face was like a purple gourd.
This Cao Cao actually used the evidence that he wanted to kill his father to threaten him.
Yuan Tan had the intention to tear up the letter, but he also knew that Cao Cao could send the letter, so he was not afraid that Yuan Tan would play tricks.
So soon Yuan Tan also sent someone to Cao Jun's camp to get in touch with Cao Cao, and asked him what Cao Cao wanted.
Cao Cao smiled, and he told Yuan Tan's envoy that he Cao didn't look like anything, but he just hoped that Yuan Dagongzi could persuade Yuan Shao to come out for a decisive battle.
Yuan Tan was relieved after receiving Cao Cao's reply.
Confronting Cao Cao in this cangting, for Cao Cao, he was sacrificing his life to accompany the gentleman, Lao Cao moved out all his belongings, but it was not easy for Yuan Shao, over the years, he Yuan Shao fought a total of two battles and lost both of them, lost a lot of money, and was later extorted a lot by Yuan Yao'er, so the current landlord's family does not have much surplus grain.
His Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses are several times that of Cao Cao, and the use of this grain and grass is naturally greater than Cao Cao's, watching the mountains of grain and grass piled up every day being consumed, and the war ahead is not the slightest progress, Yuan Shao, who is already very happy, only likes the result and does not like the process, General Yuan Shao Yuan is impatient.
Three times a day, he raised the account, and asked the Hebei dogs under his hands to give him Yuan Shaoxiang a way to destroy the enemy and at the lowest cost. It's a pity that although Xun Cen and the others are first-class strategists, they are not gods, and now it is the safest and best way to kill Cao Cao.
Yuan Shao's patience was exhausted little by little, and Yuan Tan also had a chance, in the slander of Guo Tu and Xin Ping and others, Yuan Shao planned to give up the conservative plan to kill Cao Cao, but chose to send troops to Cao Cao's camp to find Cao Cao to start a war to find an opportunity to settle the battle.
Seeing that Cao Cao's treacherous plan was about to succeed, Xun Cen over there was anxious and thought of a method: "Lord, if we ask General Yuan Yao who is far away in Huainan, he has defeated Cao Thief several times, and there must be a way to break Cao!" ”
"Father, our Hebei Army is going to ask an outsider? What's more, from Hebei to Huainan, this back and forth is a few days, and the fighters on this battlefield are fleeting! Yuan Tan was in a hurry, Lao Cao over there threatened him, if he couldn't complete the agreement with Lao Cao, Cao Cao would send the evidence of his previous murder to Yuan Shao, but he wouldn't be able to eat and walk around.
"Lord, we've been waiting for more than a month, can't we wait for these three or two days?" Xun Cen said to Yuan Shao. "What's more, my lord, we can also ask General Yuan Yao when he will be able to send troops with our army!"
"Yes! : Yuan Shao groaned for a while, he was also afraid of losing to Cao Cao, he was really afraid of being bitten by a snake for ten years, thinking about it, he actually agreed with Xun Cen's statement, "Okay, I will send someone to Huainan and ask my eldest nephew how to deal with this Cao Cao traitor!" ”
The back and forth of this letter was delayed for several days.
Cao Cao also knew Yuan Shao's approach from Yuan Tandao's mouth, and couldn't help laughing at that Yuan Shao was really pedantic, marching and fighting was not a child's house, if you didn't come to the front line, how would you know what happened on this battlefield? What's more, the tide of battle may change in the past few days.
So Cao Cao didn't worry about anything at all.
Cao Cao was happy over there, and bad luck came.
The letter was quickly sent to Yuan Yao, Yuan Yao had a very good life, he and Zhang Xiu of Wancheng sent 5,000 troops today, I sent 6,000, and tomorrow you sent 6,000 and I sent 7,000, everyone set up a position in this Yuzhou.
One party shouted, "What are you worried about!" ”
The other party replied, "Look at you!" ”
"Try one more!"
"Try it!" The two of them scolded a lot of words, but they didn't fight, even if they started a war, it was everyone who threw away their knives and weapons, and stepped forward to fight hand-to-hand, referred to as group fighting, this has no weapons just relying on teeth and hands and legs or something, how many casualties can there be, and there are only two or three unlucky ghosts who died in such an acting.
Yuan Yao listened to the report of Yuan Shao's envoy and didn't take it seriously at first, but fortunately, Tian Feng was by Yuan Yao's side on the side, and when he heard the envoy's answer like this, he immediately slapped his thigh, "It's not good!" ”
"What's wrong, Mr. Tian Feng?" Yuan Yao was frightened by Tian Feng's startled behavior, and immediately asked.
"Lord, the big thing is not good, this Yuan Shao has lost his patience again!" Tian Feng said to Yuan Yao, Tian Feng followed Yuan Shao in Hebei, but people who have been working for many years are not familiar with Yuan Shao, on the surface, Yuan Shao sent a messenger to ask Yuan Yao if he came to learn from the scriptures, but in fact, it was a manifestation of Yuan Shao's patience, no matter whether Yuan Yao had substantive suggestions to him this time, Yuan Shao would also take the initiative to send troops.
Tian Feng asked Yuan Yao to call Yuan Shao's envoy over again, and carefully inquired about the entire battle situation.
"If the lord continues like this, the situation in Hebei will definitely change!" There are a lot of strategists in Yuan Shao's army, but they are all calculating each other, and there are many generals, but they are all famous generals, and there are no really powerful ones.
"Lord, it's time to send troops!" Tian Feng suggested Yuan Yao.
"Sending troops?" Yuan Yao was stunned for a moment, he was afraid of knocking with Cao **, so he acted in such a play with Wancheng Zhang Xiu.
"The battle in Hebei is about to be decided!" Tian Feng continued, Cao Cao's actions have already shown that he Cao Cao can't afford to survive, either Cao Cao will perish, or Yuan Shao can't help but lose to Cao Cao in the field.
No matter which one it is, it must be time for Yuan Yaojun to act.
If Yuan Shao wins, then Yuan Yao doesn't have to think about it, he will directly march into Yanzhou, occupy some advantageous positions in Yanzhou while Yuan Shao is still in Hebei to win, and grab those rich cities for him.
As for whether he will turn against Yuan Shao, it doesn't matter, because once Cao Cao is eliminated, the contradiction between him Yuan Yao and his cheap uncle will have to be put on the table.
If Cao Cao wins, Cao Cao gets Yuan Shaojun's baggage to support the war, this time Cao Cao will not let Yuan Shao go, Cao Cao is in the army, and then get Hebei's baggage, the strength will quickly swell, and the recovery will even exceed the previous Yanzhou army.
Everything Yuan Yao did was in vain, even if Cao Cao won the army, Yuan Yao would be able to completely defeat Yanzhou when Cao Cao returned to Yanzhou, so that Cao Cao would lose the foundation of Yanzhou, and then Cao Cao would only have to go north to compete with Yuan Shao's remnants, and the overlord of the Central Plains would be him Yuan Yao.
"Good!" Yuan Yao still listened to Tian Feng, and immediately handed a letter to Yuan Shaojun's envoy, asking him to bring it back and tell Yuan Shao that his soldiers and horses would then set out to attack Yanzhou from the southern front, so that Yuan Shao could not be impatient for a while, and wait for his soldiers and horses to attack the southern line and exterminate Cao Cao again.
Compared with Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, Yuan Yao was more worried about Cao Cao, a lion with a flock of sheep was more terrifying than a sheep with a flock of lions.
And Cao Cao is the lion, and Yuan Shao is the sheep.
Two days later, Yuan Shao's envoy returned to Hebei, and Yuan Yao's letter was delivered to Yuan Shao
After getting Yuan Yao's letter, Yuan Shao was overjoyed after reading it, "Good, good, good, worthy of being my Yuan family athlete!" "How can you say that this is also two Yuan Dou and one Cao, Yuan Shao and Yuan Yao's blood is the same blood.
Xun Cen also breathed a deep sigh of relief after learning the news, "Congratulations to the lord, congratulations to the lord, breaking Cao is just around the corner, now General Yuan Yao has promised the lord to decide to attack Cao Cao from the southern front, so that Cao Cao can't take care of each other in the first place, then our army might as well board for a while, wait until General Yuan Yao and Cao's army start a war, and then march!" ”
Yuan Shao nodded in agreement, but Yuan Tan over there screamed, "Father, father, if this Yuan Yao child is untrustworthy, do you want our Hebei army to wait for him here?" If he doesn't move for a day, we will board for a day, and this consumption of grain and grass is tens of thousands! ”
"Eldest prince, what you said is wrong, how could General Yuan Yao ever be hungry when he lost his trust?" Xun Cen looked at Yuan Tan becoming more and more unhappy, and directly refuted it.
Xun Cen's reason is really abundant, why? Because although Yuan Yao is a little hateful, a little shameless, and a little cheeky, there is one thing, that is, he really rarely has such a formal letter and no faith.
"The eldest prince, our army consumes a lot of grain and grass, is he Cao Cao less? Our army has the land of Hebei Sanzhou as a support, and he Cao Cao only has Yanzhou, and the longer we drag on, the more unlucky he Cao Cao will be! ”
"But, but!" Yuan Tan still wanted to argue.
"Alright, sit down!" If Yuan Shao had listened to Yuan Tan before, but now that he got the news that Yuan Yao was going to send troops, Yuan Shao suddenly stopped and immediately planned to find Lao Cao to tear up.
"Father?"
"I said stand down!" Yuan Shao's eyes widened, and Yuan Tan didn't dare to say more
