Chapter 253: Zhao Yun returns to Yingchuan

Previous Chapter

While Cao Cao was busy consolidating his position in Hanoi, so were the princes of Chenliu.

The day after Cao Cao slipped away from Chenliu, the atmosphere in the city was a little different. The city was in turmoil, and the soldiers, merchants, and people were restless like ants on a hot pot, and they ran around and formed gangs to protect themselves. There are also frequent cases of thieves stealing and thieves committing murders.

Zhao Yun was the first to discover the anomaly in the city. His first reaction was that this was Cao Cao's trick. But the next day, Zhao Yun found that something was wrong, and a white flag was raised in the city.

So, Zhao Yun couldn't help but say, and took the soldiers of the Flying Feather Cavalry and the Flying Tiger Battalion to the city to surrender.

In a short time, the gates of the city opened.

The soldiers of the city came out in a scattered manner, like a herd of pigs waiting to be slaughtered.

There was no longer half a figure on the city wall, and all the soldiers gave up resistance. For them, the most important thing is to save their lives, as long as they can survive, it doesn't matter who they fight with and who they are soldiers.

Looking at the open city gate and the numb soldiers, Zhao Yun came back to his senses, and there was a faint bad premonition in his heart - Cao Cao! Where did Cao Cao go?

Zhao Yun's eyebrows tightened, he waved his hand behind him, and shouted: "Enter the city!" ”

The mighty Flying Feather Cavalry and Flying Tiger Battalion suddenly flowed into the city like an iron stream, quickly filling every corner of the city.

When Zhao Yun entered the city, the other princes also discovered the situation here, and they also led their men and horses to rush into the city from different city gates......

Xi Zhicai, who was following Zhao Yun, smiled slightly, and said, "General Zilong, Cao Cao must have fled last night, and it is imperative to occupy the various city gates and fortresses and the granaries of the weapons depots in the city first. ”

"Cao Cao ran away? How could this be ......" Zhao Yun's face was full of surprise, he really couldn't figure out how Cao Cao ran away.

"This time I was negligent, I didn't expect Cao Cao to have a master around him to guide me."

"What do you mean by the advisor? The clouds didn't understand. ”

"Huh...... General, it is important to occupy the city, this matter can be discussed later, how about it? Xi Zhicai smiled slightly, not wanting to say more on this topic.

"That's what the military advisor said." After Zhao went to finish speaking, he whipped his horse and galloped into the city.

……

After several searches, Zhao Yun did not even find Cao Cao's shadow, and the other princes also found nothing.

Cao Cao ran away!

Everyone was dumbfounded.

"The military advisor really got it right!" Zhao Yun said in his heart, he turned around and looked at the restless princes, couldn't help but shake his head, and ran towards the most luxurious building in the city. It was where Cao Cao's deliberations were, and Zhao Yun was going to meet with the princes of all walks of life there for a while.

Zhao Yun, Xi Zhicai and others were the first to arrive.

Zhao Yun sat upright on the sandalwood couch in the center, and Xi Zhicai, Zhang Liao, and Pei Yuanshao sat at the top of the left and right sides in turn.

When everything is in order, it is time for the princes of all walks of life to arrive.

After about a stick of incense, the princes came one after another.

They asked the same question, said the same unconvincing words, and swore and sat down.

What the princes asked was: Where did Cao Cao go?

Zhao Yun's answer was: Zhang Fei and his gang secretly Chen Cang.

Liu Bei miscalculated now. How could you not come to such an important group of heroes? You said you wouldn't come, didn't that mean you were going to be hacked by everyone?

Zhao Yun's answer stirred up a thousand waves.

Yuan Shao was the first to say: "Liu Bei is just a villain in the market, he has no real skills, and he does some trivial things, and he can't get on the table." This time, his people and Cao Cao should be in harmony with each other, and it must be Cao Cao who gave Liu Bei benefits. This kid is a mercenary man! ”

For the first time in his life, Yuan Shu agreed with what Yuan Shao said, and he continued: "Yes, this time it was all Liu Bei, this kid who broke the big thing, and I will never let this person go in the future!" ”

……

Everyone, you and I are abusing Liu Bei word by word.

After a long while, I heard Yuan Shao say again: "Everyone, this kid Liu Bei dares to be surnamed 'Liu'!" I'm afraid it's also fake! This kid is quite good at drilling, I dare to say, his real surname is definitely not 'Liu', mother! Lao Tzu is the most unaccustomed to this kind of person! ”

After Yuan Shao's words, the princes blew up the pot and said everything:

"If you insult the royal surname, you can't die well!"

"This villain, if you see him again, you will definitely break him into pieces."

"There are such despicable people in the world, it's really a shame for my Han people......"

……

Seeing that the fire was almost over, Zhao Qu got up and gave his hand, and said loudly: "Generals, I am not talented, entrusted by Yingchuan, I have a few words to convey to you." ”

As soon as the name of King Yingchuan came out, the hall suddenly fell silent.

Zhao Yun continued: "My lord said that Chen Liu is yours, he will not leave a single soldier here, and the Japanese general will collect his troops and return to Yingchuan." ”

All the princes were dumbfounded, no one expected Liu Zhan to be so generous, although this Chen Liudian did not cost a single soldier, but Liu Zhan was an advocate after all, and everyone faintly took him as the leader. When it came time to divide the fruits, it was naturally Liu Zhan who took the lion's lead.

After a while, Yuan Shao took the lead in breaking the silence and said, "Since King Yingchuan is so generous, you're welcome." I thought it would be measured by the number of troops. What does General Zhao think? ”

Zhao Yunren answered, he smiled slightly, raised his leg and walked out, he said when he went out: "How to divide it is a matter between you, Yun Ke can't manage so much." With that, he vanished.

Xi Zhicai, Zhang Liao, and Pei Yuanshao also followed.

As soon as Zhao Yun and the others left, the hall suddenly became quiet for a while.

After a while, Yuan Shu suddenly said loudly: "I think that it is very fair to judge by the number of troops sent. If he sends more troops, he will occupy more; If there are few troops, they will occupy less. You're fine. ”

Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, who have always been at odds, have surprisingly consistent views on this issue, for no other reason, that is, the two of them have sent the most troops this time - about 40,000 people each.

Before Yuan Shu's words fell, he jumped out and said loudly:

"Good!"

I saw Ma Teng striding to the center of the hall and continued, "I agree with this method!" But one thing to explain is that this is in a hurry, and there are not many people and horses with him, so he immediately asked people to return to Xiliang and send another 100,000 horses. ”

Gongsun Chan laughed and said, "Haha...... In this way, whoever has more heads will get more share. A certain can also send another 100,000 horses. ”

The faces of Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu gradually lost the smiles they had just now. The two of them were just about to oppose Ma Teng and Gongsun Zan to go back to move troops, but they saw Sun Jian snort coldly and said, "Nonsense! Why don't you learn from King Yingchuan and be courteous to others? What is divided according to the number of troops sent, and go back to move troops? It's really laughing out of my teeth......"

Ma Teng was reluctant, glared and shouted, "What to say?" ”

"Is there something wrong with what Lao Tzu said?"

After a while, the princes in the hall were divided into three factions, one faction was Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, one faction was Ma Teng, Gongsun Zhan, and the other faction was Sun Jian and others. The third faction is the most numerous, accounting for more than half.

The three factions quarreled back and forth, but they didn't come up with a reason, and finally broke up unhappily.

On the second day they began to fight against each other.

When Zhao Yun returned to Yingchuan, the princes who were still in Chen were already fighting.

From the beginning of the First Battle of Chenliu, the princes began to attack and annex each other, which also gave Cao Cao a chance to breathe.

Liu Zhan sent 50,000 troops, Zhao Yun was the main general, Zhang Liao and Pei Yuanshao were the deputy generals, and Xi Zhicai was the military advisor.

Cao Cao escaped from Chenliu and went to Zhang Miao to replace Zhang Miao and occupy Hanoi County.
