After a short time, two guards entered the tent with a disgraced soldier.

The soldier originally followed Yan Liang to stop Liu Ping, but after Yan Liang was killed, he was fortunate that his father and mother gave birth to a pair of long legs for him and ran fast.

In addition, he was lucky enough to find a dirt hole to hide, and successfully escaped the pursuit of Cao Jun.

After Cao Jun left, he got out, ran back to Baima, and went to Lu Xiang's department, but before he could report it, Cao Jun killed him again......

So his long legs once again played an important role, throwing off and continuing to escape, and once again escaped the pursuit of Cao Jun and successfully hid.

After seeing Liu Ping leading the people of the city to leave from a distance, he found the ferry from the ferry and escaped.

"Who killed Yan Gongji?" Yuan Shao stepped forward and asked sharply.

"Little ...... The little one was never seen...... I only heard that it was a white-haired veteran......" replied the big soldier in a trembling voice.

"Veteran?" Yuan Shao glanced at the civil and military forces with a pale face, and asked in a deep voice: "Do you know who is the oldest among the generals of the Cao family?" ”

All the civil and military officers looked at each other and shook their heads.

In their impression, none of the generals of the Cao clan are old enough to have gray hair, so where did this come from?

At this time, Guo Tu said tentatively beside him: "If you talk about single battles, the bravery of General Gongji, the generals of the Cao clan are invincible.

Now that General Gongji has died unexpectedly, I guess it was probably caused by General Cao's use of wheel warfare, or a siege by many people.

As for the so-called veterans, it is about picking up a bargain, not how strong the force is. ”

Yuan Shao felt that Guo Tu's words were very good, but his general Yan Liang was dead after all, and he had broken 50,000 military horses.

He jumped like thunder in anger, kicked over the table, gritted his teeth and said angrily: "Liu Ping'er, kill my beloved general again, I don't share the sky with this thief, who can kill him with me?" ”

"The little one sees...... Cao Jun left White Horse City with countless people...... Walked south ......"

The soldier who had fled back weakly added.

"He took the initiative to abandon the white horse?" Yuan Shao glanced at several strategists around him.

Previously, he had just received news from Yanjin that Cao Cao, who was confronting Wen Chou, had begun to take the initiative to retreat, and Wen Chou wanted to pursue, but he was afraid of being ambushed.

After all, it was the main force of Cao Cao's army, and Cao Cao also had several well-known old yin goods around him.

If you want to say that there will be no ambush after the withdrawal, I'm afraid no one can believe it.

Yuan Shao paused and continued: "The herald is that Uncle Wen is evil, there is no need to pursue Cao Jun, and Cao Ah will deal with it personally after I cross the river."

Let him lead the army to intercept Liu Ping, and be sure to take the head of that child to eliminate the hatred in my heart. ”

Even if the ambush is not considered, the 50,000 troops under Wen Chou may not be able to win when they meet the main force of Cao's army.

Yuan Shao didn't need to take the risk of losing another general.

It's just that Wen Chou's main force chasing Cao Jun didn't dare to win, and he went to intercept Liu Ping, but he was nine out of ten.

After all, the strength in Liu Ping's hands is very different from Wen Chou, and he still protects so many people, as long as Wen Chou is not suddenly killed like Yan Liang, it is still safe to defeat Liu Ping's army.

"Ming Gong, this matter must not be done," Fu Zhu suddenly stood up and said impassionedly: "Now that I am about to fight with the Cao family, how can I be angry and act for the sake of a general's hatred?"

At this time, Wen Chou should be ordered to break it into pieces and attack everywhere to drag Cao Jun.

The Duke of Ming should immediately lead the main force to cross the Yellow River, concentrate all his forces, and wipe out Cao's army in a battle.

Then the Central Plains can be determined, and the hegemony can be achieved. ”

Previously, Fu Zhu had offered advice and used fatigue tactics to drag the Cao family to death, but Yuan Shao didn't listen to it and wanted to finish his work in one battle.

Since it was decided to fight a big battle, let's have a good time, concentrate 200,000 troops to attack the main force of the Cao army at the same time, and the Cao army has no reason to turn over.

But now Yuan Shao has chosen to divide the troops, giving Yan Liang 50,000 and Wen Chou 50,000, and competing with Liu Ping's partial division, what if you kill Liu Ping?

The main force of the Cao army did not suffer any losses.

"Gong is not the same as this," Guo Tu knows that Yuan Shao is a person who is very happy, if his subordinates love will be killed, and if he does not take revenge immediately, how can he get face?

"Cao Cao's subordinates are not without capable people, so how can Guo Fengxiao, Jia Wenhe and others be easy people?

Wouldn't it be more dangerous to let Uncle Wen viciously contain Cao Cao?

The so-called mourning soldiers will win, and the order of Ming Gong to avenge Yan Gongji is really wise. ”

"Guo Gongze, Ming Gong's hegemony is about to be cut off!" The way of impatience and ruin.

"It's just nonsense, how wise Ming Gong is, how can he not tell what is good and what is evil? If Ming Gong listens to your frustrated father, he will really lose his hegemony. ”

"Enough!" Yuan Shao stood up, waved the sleeves of his robe, and said angrily: "I have made up my mind, and I will order Uncle Wen to be evil, avenge Yan Gongji, not kill Liu Ping, and swear not to give up." ”

He sighed helplessly, shook his head, and said nothing.

……

Cao Cao followed Xun You's advice and took the initiative to lead the main force to withdraw to Guandu, shorten the supply line of baggage, and then look for fighters to fight a decisive battle with Yuan's army.

However, they also have a routine for withdrawing troops, and several major strategists almost analyzed Wen Chou, and finally reached a consensus that the goods were a straight intestine and didn't know any stratagems at all.

As a result, Guo Jiajiaxu and others began to offer suggestions and suggestions, and formulated at least seven or eight sets of strategies for withdrawing troops.

Having too many advisors is also a headache.

In the end, Cao Cao chose the simplest one from the middle.

He personally led the main force to retreat with great fanfare, and then asked Xiahou Yuan and Cao Chun to ambush each with 5,000 soldiers and horses in a dangerous place, forming a huge pocket.

If Wen Chou chases, then Cao Cao personally leads the army to kill a horse pistol, and Xiahou Yuan Cao Chun kills from both sides, and eats the 50,000 Yuan troops of Wen Chou first.

For the Cao army, only individual defeats are king, and if the Yuan army joins forces, there is no chance of victory.

"What's going on in Yeonjin?" In the big tent, Cao Cao asked Cao Hong next to him while reading a book.

After he set up the pocket array, he waited for Wen Chou to enter with peace of mind.

"It's business as usual, there's no news," Cao Hong shook his head beside him.

"This ugly man is a brave man, can he hold his breath?" Cao Cao smiled slightly and continued to read.

Suddenly, a herald hurriedly came to report: "Yu Sikong, Wen Chou personally led the army out of the east gate and ran in the direction of Baima." ”

"Go out of the east gate and run in the direction of the white horse?" Cao Cao put down the book, pinched his beard with a frown, and said to himself: "That reckless man doesn't want to join forces with Yan Liang of the White Horse, so that the Yuan army will have 100,000 people, which is a bit tricky." ”

"Big brother, Ping'er is still in Baima, will it be dangerous?" Cao Hong said a little nervously.

Cao Cao paced back and forth two steps: "Ping'er with 10,000 horses and 100,000 horses facing an enemy of 100,000 is extremely dangerous.

Give him an order to withdraw his troops immediately and join me, without delay. ”
