Chapter 140: The Siege (6)

Who would have thought that Tai Shi Ci took advantage of the rebels to relax their vigilance, clamped his legs between the horse's belly, and rushed out of the enemy's encirclement with lightning speed, and when the rebels noticed, they could only see a cloud of smoke and dust raised by Tai Shi Ci's war horse. Tai Shi Ci quickly whipped to Liu Bei's place, asked Liu Bei for reinforcements, and relieved the siege of Kong Rong.

Cao Cao nodded secretly, loyal and brave, with good intentions, and the posture of a real general.

Indeed, Tai Shi Ci only used two small soldiers who were good at shooting to accompany him at the city gate for three days, and he completed the incredible strategic goal and played 100,000 enemy troops. It can be said: three days to confuse the enemy, and a few seconds to break through with lightning. A general like Tai Shici is a real general.

Thinking about it, Cao Cao moved his heart to love talent again, and couldn't help but complain a little in his heart that Kong Rong was incompetent, and he couldn't keep this famous general who was both wise and brave and loyal, otherwise he should be serving under his command now.

However, to get back to the point, Guo Jia gave this example, and the people in the account understood what Guo Jia meant, after all, everyone is a person with brains.

The Xuzhou army wanted to paralyze Cao Jun's carelessness, and then take advantage of the situation to break through.

To be honest, Cao Cao really admired Tao Qian a little this time. With such courage and resourcefulness, can people really burst into unimaginable potential in the midst of despair? Or is it 。。。。。。 There is someone behind you。。。。。。

However, no matter what the possibility, Cao Cao must be prepared for Tao Qian's breakthrough. To be honest, he's upset right now. This feeling of being held by someone to take the initiative is very uncomfortable. It has always been me Cao Cao who controls the initiative on the battlefield, when did a Tao Qian ride on my head? β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

Xuzhou Prefecture Pastoral Mansion

There was a mess everywhere, there didn't seem to be even a single subordinate in the house, and there were still a lot of broken trees on the ground that no one cleaned up.

Tao Qian and a middle-aged Confucian student sat on the steps, not caring about their identities at all, as if the old man of an ordinary family was tired of plowing the land and sat on the steps to rest.

"Tao Gong, I didn't expect you to have the courage to fight with me." The middle-aged Confucian looked at Tao Qian and smiled.

Who would have thought that a person has been overly cautious when he was young, and he is even older than himself, but in this desperate situation, he is actually crazier than himself.

Tao Qian smiled, his white beard trembled a few times, "You Chen Gongtai dare to take advantage of the chaos to infiltrate my Xuzhou army to lobby me." ”

This middle-aged Confucian student was the Chen Palace of the Han Emperor Liu Xie.

Now that Yuan Shao has not unified the three states of Hebei, Hebei and Qingdao, if Cao Cao takes Xuzhou one step ahead, Yuan Shao will inevitably lose the upper hand. Having been in the Cao army incognito for all these years, he still has a relatively clear idea of the combat effectiveness of the Cao army.

Chen Gong also wondered that with Cao Jun's current achievements in Tuntian, it should not be a big problem to recruit another 100,000 horses, but Cao Jun just increased the salary for each soldier, reformed the soldiers' equipment on a large scale, and created some strange equipment. To be honest, Chen Gong understands the role of a full-time soldier, but after all, two fists are hard to beat four hands, and no matter how powerful the equipment is, how much combat power can it bonus. So in Chen Gong's view, what Cao Cao, Guo Jia, and Xun Yu did was a bit of a child's play.

But he is from the Son of Heaven faction, wouldn't it be better for Cao Cao to be weaker?

Chen Gong's purpose in infiltrating the inner city of Xiapi City this time was to delay Cao Cao's progress in unifying Yan, Henan, and Xu Prefectures, and then try to make Cao's army's combat strength weaker than Yuan's army. Liu Xie, the Son of Heaven, demanded that Cao and Yuan's armies fight on the front line, while Liu Xie could take the opportunity to occupy Xudu and then Yanzhou to complete the goal of self-reliance.

However, he couldn't let Cao Cao fail miserably, although Yuan Shao's talent was inferior to Cao Cao's in his opinion, his background was very dangerous. Cao Cao wanted to usurp, and they could still condemn him on the grounds that Cao Cao was from a humble background, but Yuan Shao was born in the Yuan family of the fourth and third dukes, and now it should be said that the fifth and third dukes. The Yuan family has been famous for generations, protΓ©gΓ©s and former officials are all over the world, and they have a good background and reputation to usurp, in a way, Yuan Shao is more terrible than Cao Cao.

(Popular science, some authors' books say that Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu IV and Wu Gong are purely uncommon-sense.) The three dukes refer to Taiwei, Situ, and Sikong, and the three dukes are collectively referred to these three positions, the fourth and third dukes mean that the four generations of the Yuan family have people who have served as the three dukes, and Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu have held positions comparable to the three dukes or even more than the three dukes, so they are called the five three dukes, in this book Yuan Shao served as the general, and Yuan Shu served as the hussar general)

Therefore, Chen Gong is also quite difficult, to weaken Cao Cao, but not to weaken Cao Cao too much.

A few days ago, Chen Gong dressed up as the Xuzhou army, rushed into the inner city of Xiapi City with the Xuzhou army, and then asked to meet Tao Qian as the messenger of the Son of Heaven.

Tao Qian thought at first that it was someone sent by Cao Cao, after all, who didn't know that the Son of Heaven was under Cao Cao's control, and then let people put a big tripod in the governor's mansion, and the oil in the tripod was burned and flowed, and a hot gas came out.

When Chen Gong entered the state pastoral mansion, he saw this Dading, and he already had a plan in his heart, Tao Qian was going to embarrass him, and eighty percent regarded him as Cao Cao's person.

In the face of the oil pot, Chen Gong did the opposite, not only did not show cowering, but swaggered and generously walked into the state pastor's mansion, and his behavior appeared extremely arrogant.

Chen Gong walked into the state pastor's mansion, straightened his body and said, "The messenger of the Son of Heaven is here!" ”

Tao Qian stared at Chen Gong and couldn't help laughing, "You little messenger, you don't bow down when you see me, the Xuzhou pastor!" What a reason! ”

"Oh, although the official of this envoy is low, he is the confidant of the Son of Heaven and the envoy of the palace. Although you Tao Qian's official rank is high, after all, you are a foreign vassal and a subordinate of the Son of Heaven! What's more, Tao Yuanjun is now trapped in this small inner city of Xiapi City, but he is just a turtle in an urn, a dry bone in the mound, and he will die sooner or later! ”

"Shaft!" Tao Qian slapped the table case, and more than a dozen guards stepped forward with knives and surrounded Chen Palace.

"You。。。。。。 Have you ever heard that there is a person who was thrown into the oil pot because he acted as a lobbyist? ”

"As a reader, I naturally know."

"Then it seems that you also want to follow his example!"

"It's ridiculous, I thought that Tao Gongzu was a dignified Xuzhou pastor, although he was not talented, but he should be virtuous, but I didn't expect to be afraid of me as a Confucian student!" Chen Gong stroked his long beard and laughed, looking very arrogant, as if he couldn't see the more than ten ring-headed knives that flashed with a bright cold light beside him.
