Chapter 570: Liu Xun's Calculations

Xu Chu and Dian Wei, two people who basically don't use their brains, guessed a fact, that is, Cao Cao is going to kill someone, and the person who wants to kill is Liu Xun, but in the end, Liu Xun is used.

Liu Xun got Cao Cao's tiger talisman, and his first order was to meet Xiahou Yuan and Cao Chun, Xiahou Chun and others, and had a good general addiction in front of Xiahou Yuan's brothers and Cao Chun.

The Xiahou Yuan brothers and Cao Chunke both knew Cao Cao's plan, so although they were unhappy with Liu Xun, they didn't show it, but they made Liu Xun happy for a long time.

Yuan Shao is behind the ass

Although Cao Cao left Chen Liu and left our Liu Xun and Liu Dacheng as bait, but when he left, Cao Cao still felt very uncomfortable, not because he was sorry for Liu Xun or anything.

For Cao Cao, he was able to take Liu Xun in when he was most down, Liu Xun was already a face, but this Liu Xun still wanted to replace him, if he Cao Cao didn't kill him, who would Liu Xun make?

The reason why Cao Cao is sad is because when did Cao Cao be so miserable? Using Chen Liucheng as bait? Originally, he ran across the Yellow River with a high temperament and fought a decisive battle with Yuan Shao on the other side of the Yellow River, but he was defeated by our Huang Yi's throat, so that he was defeated in Hebei and returned.

"Yuan Yao Xiao'er, Huang Yi Xiao'er, I curse you not to die well, there is no fart to give birth to a son, eyes!" The more Cao Cao scolded, the more angry he became, and in the end he was almost hysterical, which was enough to see Cao Cao's hatred for Yuan Yao.

Even if Cao Cao's soldiers and horses destroyed the pontoon bridge and destroyed the ships before, Yuan Shao also found warships to rebuild the pontoon bridge in the future, and slowly brought the main army from Hebei to the Central Plains.

From the news brought by Zhang Nan and Gao Gan, it seems that the main force of Cao Jun is still in Chen. Looking at Chen's geographical location in Yanzhou, many strategists and generals of the Hebei Army are asserting that Cao Cao is bound to defend Chenliu to the death, hold the main road and fight a siege battle with Yuan Shao here.

As soon as the eldest prince of Yuan Tan heard the news, he was immediately overjoyed, why, because Lao Cao couldn't escape in this way, he Yuan Tan and Yuan eldest prince still had a handle in Cao Cao's hands, the sooner he went to eliminate Cao Cao, the deeper his Yuan Tan's secret would be hidden.

So immediately, Yuan Tan and Yuan asked to go to Chen Liuxian to block Cao Cao, in order to see if there was a chance to kill Lao Cao.

Seeing that his eldest son was so belligerent, he automatically asked for help, and Yuan Shao's good things have happened again and again in the past few days, so he didn't want to directly agree to Yuan Tan's request for Yuan Tan's eldest son.

Soon Yuan Tan set off with an army of 20,000 under his command, and Yuan Shao also asked Gao Gan and Zhang Nan to cover Yuan Tan from the flank, but that's it, our Yuan Tan and Yuan Dagongzi really want to see Cao Cao again, or too much to see Cao Cao's head.

So Yuan Tan immediately sent troops to do it, even if Mr. Guo Tu advised Yuan Tan to slow down on the side.

And Yuan Tan rushed to Chenliu City in such a hurry, except for being flattened by Cao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry left in Chenliu and Xiahou Yuan's divine marching army. Even our General Liu Xun and Liu rushed out with soldiers and horses, killing more than 10,000 enemies before and after, and the rest of the soldiers and horses were also defeated.

If it weren't for Zhang Nan and Gao Gan's timely response, Yuan Tan Gongzi would have been able to be reimbursed outside Chen Liucheng.

Yuan Tan Gongzi was defeated and went back to add fuel and vinegar, so that Yuan Shao thought that Chen Liucheng was indeed the main force of Cao Cao's army.

Looking at the two large camps outside Chen Liucheng, one of them said Tiger and Leopard Ride, and the second said Divine March.

"It seems that the main army of Cao Cao's traitors is good in the city!" Yuan Shao on the side believed his eldest son's words a little.

"Lord, look at the city!" Xun Cen pointed to the banner on Chen Liucheng over there and said to Yuan Shao on the side.

I saw that the banner above Chen Liucheng's head was a Liu character.

"Liu?" Yuan Shao was at a loss for a monk, why, because there were no generals or Wenchen surnamed Liu under Cao Cao.

Those figures who played a decisive role in Cao Cao's army, Yuan Shao went through it in his mind, and there was no one surnamed Liu.

"Father, regardless of whether Chen Liu is the main force of Cao Cao's army or not, if the main force of Cao Cao's army is better, he can block Cao Cao's back road outside of Chen Liu, if it is not the main force of Cao Cao's army, he can also take Chen Liu's army to Xudu." Yuan Tan was bent on Cao Cao's life, Cao Cao jumped over the wall in a hurry, and finally sold him, so he thought about killing people and destroying his mouth.

"That's right!" Yuan Shao nodded.

"The lord might as well call the two generals Zhang Nan and Gao Gan to investigate first?" Xun Cen is much more cautious, "It's only half a day's work, and you can't delay big things!" ”

"Good!" Yuan Shao nodded, I have to say, this society is the best teacher, failure is success His mother, Cao Cao won him again and again Yuan Shao, if Yuan Shao is stupid, it really won't work.

Zhang Nan was quickly recruited, and at the same time, the scout was also released to look for eyes.

Yuan Shao went outside the city and inquired that the current commander of Chen Liu was Liu Xun.

Immediately, Yuan Shao had a thought: "Liu Xun, Liu Zitai? "Liu Xun is a person of the same era as Yuan Shao", how could this Cao Cao teach soldiers and horses to Liu Xun and Liu Zitai? Or Chen Liucheng? ”

But no matter what, Yuan Shao is happy, why, because this Liu Xun and Liu Zitai are much easier to deal with than Cao Ren Guo Jia and the like, not to mention one more point.

"Mr. Xun Cen, I remember you once told me that this Liu Xun and Liu Zitai are members of the Imperial Party in Xudu?" Yuan Shao asked Xun Cen over there.

Xun Cen thought for a while and nodded, "Exactly!" "The enemy of the enemy is a friend, even if it is not a friend, there is no harm in knowing a little more, the information sent from Xu Du, this Liu Xun Liu Zitai after the defeat of Huainan, but he is not stable in Xu Du at all, not only is he in the company of Kong Rong and his ilk all day long, but also enters the palace to meet the Han Emperor, and the Han Emperor chats a lot.

"If I want to defeat Cao Cao, I must break through Xudu, I heard that the city defense of Xudu City is not worse than my Yecheng, if I can surrender this Liu Xun outside of Chen Liu, I can also use it as an arm when I attack Xudu!" Yuan Shao had the idea of subduing Liu Xun. subdued Liu Xun, then it is equivalent to stabbing Lao Cao in the back, and the daughter buys horse bones, this Liu Xun is just a new imperial party If he Yuan Shao is reused, then what will the imperial party in Xu Du think, thinking that he Yuan Shao is a loyal minister, and Cao Cao is a traitor?

"The lord is wise!"

Yuan Shao's idea is good.

Immediately Yuan Shao let his soldiers and horses go to Chen Liucheng to persuade him to surrender, in Yuan Shao's opinion, Liu Xun is just a lost dog, without Huainan he is nothing, before Cao Cao is still not reused, this time staying in Chen Liu is also like being sent to death, and now Cao Cao is about to end of the road, and Yuan Shao is much more promising than following Cao Cao.

So Yuan Shao thought that he was 100% sure of everything, but unfortunately he was doomed to Yuan Shao's bad luck.

This Liu Xun did not accept the surrender, and also chopped up the envoy sent by Yuan Shao to Chenliu City, pressed the envoy on the head of the city, and hung the head on the city.

This is really a slap in the face of Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao was so angry that he immediately ordered his soldiers and horses to immediately send troops to attack Chen Liucheng.

"General, why don't you vote for this Yuan Shao now!" The deputy general next to Liu Xun became more and more confused, how does this Yuan Shao think that he is more promising than Cao Cao, and the official position given by Yuan Shao is really not small, one is the history of Yanzhou Thorn, and the other is Feng Tinghou, but this Lord Liu Xun cut Yuan Shao's envoy without saying a word, isn't this a joke?

"You know what!" Liu Xun was very complacent, "If you take refuge in that Yuan Shao now, it's just an eagle dog following Yuan Shao!" Liu Xun reprimanded his lieutenant general.

"I only have more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in my hands now!" Liu Xun looked at the banner of the tiger and leopard cavalry and the divine march army outside the city, and was thinking in his heart, relying on the three thousand main forces and 12,000 auxiliary soldiers in the city, he Liu Xun took refuge in Yuan Shao, and he was just an insignificant person.

And if he takes refuge in Yuan Shao now, then he believes that Cao Chun, who is riding the tiger and leopard, and Xiahou Yuan of the Divine Marching Army, can run away on the spot, and now he Liu Xun has not killed these two people and seized the military power.

Waiting to kill Cao Chun and Xiahou Yuan, let's get the military power of the Divine Marching Army and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry in his hands, at that time, he Liu Xun can wait for the price and sell, just a Chen Liu Xun is not in his eyes, with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses plus grain and grass in his hands, he can be welcomed wherever he goes, and no matter how bad he is, he can be a prince of the land who occupies the mountain and is the king with that Zhang Yan.

If you take refuge in Yuan Shao now, there are not so many benefits.

Even if the city is breached, he Liu Xun is a contemporary celebrity, and this Yuan Shao still dares to kill himself? Liu Xun is not a fool, and those who can do it are not stupid.

Yuan Shaoke didn't know Liu Xun's tone in his heart, and immediately asked his subordinates to prepare to attack the city.

Don't say that Liu Xun's ability to defend the city is really impatient, let the soldiers and horses under his command be divided into three columns, and go to the battlefield in turn.

Yuan Shao was angry with Liu Xun and could be regarded as a hasty battle, and the soldiers and horses under his hands were also some ladders, Chen Liucheng, the city was strong, and there were tigers and leopards outside the city and the Shenxing army fighting alternately, Yuan Shao quickly lost thousands of soldiers and horses outside such a Chen Liucheng.

After three days of hard work, Yuan Shao not only failed to take Chen Liucheng, but instead touched a blue nose and swollen face under Chen Liu.

Yuan Shao was so angry, if it weren't for Xun Cen and others, there might be Hebei generals and colonels who would be unlucky.

"Lord, our army has no siege weapons now, and attacking Chen Liu like this can only add casualties in vain, so it is better to hold off for a while, and wait for our army's forehead to rush the city and other sharp weapons such as the well fence before attacking the city!" Xun Cen suggested to Yuan Shao over there.

Yuan Shao was reluctant to listen, but the two sons below, Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan, also nodded in agreement with Xun Cen's suggestion, why? Because the soldiers and horses sent out by Yuan Shao are all soldiers and horses of the two, can this not be distressing?

"Good!" Yuan Shao nodded: "Just let him Liu Xun live a few more days!" Yuan Shao was also full of anger.

"Why don't you send another messenger to persuade you to surrender?" Xun Cen spoke again, he always felt that this Liu Xun was waiting for the price to sell, although Yuan Shao's main force outside Chen Liucheng had arrived, but in general it was not so urgent, but now Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses have been deployed, it can be regarded as an ambush on all sides, Liu Xun will not blame him Yuan Shao if he is embarrassed again.

"Good!" Yuan Shao also agreed, and soon the second messenger was sent into the city.

Chen stayed in the city.

"Yuan Shao sent a second messenger?" Liu Xun asked a servant of his own on the side, this person has been following Liu Xun for many years, starting from the time when he Liu Xun was a prince, and now he is his Liu Xun's henchman.

"Yes! The messenger said that if the official position before you went out of the city and surrendered remained unchanged, General Yuan Shao and Yuan Da would give you a thousand gold again, and the soldiers and horses in the city would also be assigned to the lord and you, and his general Yuan Shao was also ready to give the lord another 20,000 soldiers and horses to make up 50,000. This henchman said to Liu Xun.

"Fifty thousand?" Liu Xun's voice increased decibels, 50,000 troops, how long did he Liu Xun not see it, back then, in the hands of Lujiang, there were only less than 100,000 soldiers and horses, of which the elite was about 40,000 or 50,000, and now since Yuan Shao said that he was willing to give him 20,000 soldiers and horses, he would definitely not be old, weak, sick and disabled.

Liu Xun showed a greedy look in his eyes. But then he was a little painful, because this tiger and leopard cavalry and the divine march army had not yet reached his Liu Xun's hands.

"Leave that messenger and serve him well, and don't slack off!" Liu Xun commanded.

"Did General Cao Chun and General Xiahou Yuan enter the city?" Liu Xun continued to ask.

"Not yet!"

"Tell them I have something important to discuss with them, why wouldn't they come?" Liu Xun asked with a frown.

"Lord!" The servant on the side shouted.

"Huh?"

"Lord, there is a word that I don't know whether to say or not!" Liu Xun's servant said to Liu Xun.

"Say!" Liu Xun said to his subordinates.

"Lord, I think this Cao Cao still doesn't trust us." The domestic servant got Liu Xun's permission and immediately said his thoughts.

"What do you mean?" Liu Xun continued to ask.

"If this Cao Cao really trusts us, he should transfer the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and the Divine Marching Army to the city, instead of putting them outside the city!" The servant spoke his thoughts.

"You know what!" Liu Xun reprimanded: "This tiger and leopard cavalry and the divine marching army are all mobile soldiers and horses, if they are placed in the city to defend the city, it will be a waste." ”

"Then why do you sign again and again, my lord, Cao Chun and Xiahou Yuan, these two really have no intention of entering the city at all?" The servant asked rhetorically,

"Yes!" Liu Xun pondered, not to mention himself, even a small servant could see that this Cao Cao didn't trust him at all, but if he didn't get Cao Cao's trust, he wouldn't be able to get the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and the Divine March, so how could he get Cao Cao's trust and dispel Xiahou Yuan and Cao Chun's scruples.

Liu Xun suddenly thought of a solution, he gritted his teeth, "What about the envoy sent by Yuan Shao?" ”

"Just stayed and rested!"

"Drag me to the city!" Liu Xun continued.

"Ahhh The servant was stunned for a moment: "Lord, are you here?" ”

"Why are you still stunned? Drag the messenger above the city for me. ”
