Chapter 263: Benevolence?

Chen Mo has never advocated that the main general should take the lead, no matter how powerful the general, in the chaos of the army, the sword light and sword shadow, once he accidentally falls off the horse, it is definitely a corpse and bones, but Wuyi this time, he can't blame Wuyi, the other party is killed in the formation, if Wuyi retreats at this time, what may lead to is being overturned by the Cao army, judging from the battle formation at that time, Wuyi did right, and his bravery did stabilize the victory, and did not let Xiahoudun and Cao Hong's counterattack succeed.

But if you look at the entire battle situation in Yanjin and Wuchao, Wuyi was seriously injured and obviously could no longer command the battle, and Chen Mo's side, there was no one to replace Wuyi to guard Yanjin.

"I will write a letter immediately, you will send it to Luoyang as soon as possible, and order Yu Sheng to go north, take over Wuyi to defend the city, and send Wuyi back to Luoyang to recuperate." After Chen Mo paced back and forth for two steps, he looked at Dian Weidao.

At present, the most suitable thing for Chen Mo to guard the rear is Yu Sheng, Wu Yi will fight as before after determining the stability of the rear, and fight hard to kill the enemy, but if Yu Sheng is replaced, then as long as Yanjin is not broken, he will never go out of the city to fight, and at present, Yu Sheng will guard Yanjin, although it is not enterprising enough, but it is no problem to ensure that Chen Mo's rear is unobstructed.

"Whoa!" Dian Wei nodded.

"Bang~"

Chen Mo closed the door directly and went to write the order, Zhen Mi was also well-behaved, quietly huddled in the quilt, watching Chen Mo handle official business.

Soon, after the order was written, and Chen Mo stamped his own seal, he ordered Dian Wei to rush to Luoyang to transfer people, and as for the defense of Yanjin, Cheng Fang was temporarily in charge.

"Is the general going to war?" After Dian Wei left, Zhen Mi sat up with a silk quilt covering her body, looking at Chen Mo, and there was not much emotion in her eyes.

"Hmm." Chen Mo nodded: "I've been fighting all the time, but it's just a different opponent." ”

It is indeed just a change of opponent, Cao Cao's attack on Yanjin will not succeed, he will definitely turn around and attack, seeking a decisive battle with Chen Mo, this Jizhou belongs, and the battle of Yecheng is very important.

"Concubine...... Wait for the general's triumphant return. Zhen Mi's voice was very soft, but Chen Mo still heard it.

Turning his head to look at the woman, Chen Mo smiled, nodded and said, "After this battle, follow me back to Luoyang." ”

"Hmm."

Zhen Mi agreed, even if he didn't agree, it was useless, Chen Mo had the common problem of men, he also had a strong sense of possessiveness, since he was already his own woman, there was no reason to stay in Yecheng.

After putting on his clothes and armor, Chen Mo pushed the door and went straight to the government office, where Xun You, Yang Xiu and others were already discussing things here, and when they saw Chen Mo coming over, they hurriedly saluted.

"No need to be polite." Chen Mo knelt down and sat down, looked at everyone and said with a smile: "The Yuan army outside the city suddenly retreated, presumably Cao Cao is coming soon." ”

"Not bad." Yang Xiu nodded and said, "According to the scouts, the traces of Cao Jun's scouts have been found yesterday, and it seems that Yuan Shang has abandoned Yecheng. ”

"I'm afraid it's not as simple as this, Yecheng is an important place in Jizhou, not only the king of support is here, but the gentry of Jizhou are also gathered here, before the Yuan army did not dare to fight with our army, that is, many generals in the army took care of the family in the city, so they did not dare to do their best, and now Cao Cao led the army to come, presumably that Yuan Shang wants to borrow Cao Cao's hand to fight with our army, so that there is enough time to sort out the army, waiting for the opportunity to take advantage of the opportunity." Xun You shook his head and gave a different opinion.

Yang Xiu thinks about things, he has a strong purpose, and what he sees is a line, but Xun You can see the overall situation, this is not a matter of talent or ability, but a matter of vision, in this regard, under the command of Guan Chen Mo, few people can do Xun You to such a point.

Chen Mo nodded and looked at everyone: "What Gongda said is the same as what I feared, Yuan Shang is not Yuan Tan, he can't give up Yecheng anyway, so right now, the Yuan Cao alliance is bound to be successful, and the next thing we have to face is the Yuan Cao family, this battle is not easy." ”

If there was only Yuan's family, Chen Mo would have launched a general attack and taken down Yuan Shang, but there was always Cao Cao on his side, Chen Mo never dared to go all out, and most of his energy was on Cao Cao, now that Cao Cao has arrived, Yuan Shang will have the opportunity to reorganize the army, eliminate those soldiers who dare not fight with all their strength because their families are in Yecheng, re-promote generals, and gather combat strength, so that the Jizhou army will soon recover its combat strength.

What the Jizhou army is going to do next, Chen Mo can almost guess it, but retreating at this moment is to reorganize the army, and at the same time, he also has the intention of sitting and watching the tiger fight.

However, if Yuan Shang wants to leave like this, it would be too much to underestimate Chen Mo.

"Pass my military order, inform Ma Chao, Pang De, Zhang Xiu, the three generals, lead the cavalry to immediately chase after the Jizhou army, no need to attack, just shout in front of the battle, those who are willing to surrender, not only can they keep their wealth and nobility, but the families of Yecheng generals, I have not moved a bit, as long as they are willing to raise troops to surrender, they can retain their military positions, and their families will be safe and sound!" Chen Mo knocked on the table and looked at the crowd.

"My lord, is this move against benevolence?" Yang Xiu frowned and said, although he also had this meaning before, but Chen Mo didn't make it clear after all, and now it is tantamount to directly threatening other people's families.

"Rendao?" Chen Mo looked at Yang Xiu and said indifferently: "My benevolence is that my soldiers can die one less, that is, benevolence, benevolence and righteousness, it has always been benevolence to one's own people and to the enemy, that is not called benevolence, that is called stupidity, the words of the sages are not learned like this." ”

"But the lord did this, did he ever think about the hearts of the people in Jizhou?" Yang Xiu persuaded.

"Do you think that even if I don't make this decision, the hearts of the people you say will turn to me?" Chen Mo was a little impatient, shook his head and said: "If you win this battle, people's hearts can be slowly recovered, but if you lose, people's hearts will have nothing to do with me." ”

"Alas~" Yang Xiu saw that Chen Mo insisted on this, shook his head and sighed, and didn't say more, in his opinion, it was unpopular, even if he won Jizhou, it was difficult to be stable, but Chen Mo's attitude was resolute, his mind had been decided, and it was useless for him to persuade him, looking at Xun You beside him and wanting to ask for help, but Xun You looked at his nose and nose, and obviously had no intention of speaking.

"Go ahead and do it." Chen Mo waved his hand and motioned to everyone.

"Whoa!" The generals said yes and got up to leave.

"Mr. Gongda~" Yang Xiu caught up with Xun Yu in addition to the government office, frowned and said: "What the lord said, it is obviously too arbitrary, why didn't Mr. Gongda persuade the lord?" ”

"Dezu~" Xun You sighed, he felt that Yang Xiu was a little dangerous, and said seriously: "This is a war, soldiers are not tired of cheating, what Dezu said is certainly reasonable, if our army now has an absolute victory, you will also persuade the lord to follow your plan, but now the strength of the Cao army is not inferior to our army, if the Yuan clan reorganizes the army, it is enough to fight against our army, at this time to talk about the way of forgiveness, it is actually the way to take death, the lord's policy, although it is a little unkind, but at the moment for our army, it is the most suitable, there is no perfect strategy in this world, How unwise is it to be thoughtful? ”

"This ......" Yang Xiu heard this, frowned and looked at Xun You, before Chen Mo killed the gentry of Yecheng, Xun You didn't say a word, and now Chen Mo made this decision, Xun You defended Chen Mo instead?

"Take care of the big picture!" Xun You is a little speechless, he is quite a smart person, why does he love to admit death? At present, taking Jizhou is the foundation of the northern hegemony of the lord, and the others are just as the lord said, and then govern after taking Jizhou, why don't you hold on to the king's set?

The king, the overlord, sometimes you really can't tell which is better and which is inferior, not to mention that it is defined by the predecessors, although Chen Mo also reads the book of the sages, but he has never regarded it as the truth, if you want to say that Yang Xiu is also a prodigy of the Han Dynasty, how can you always like to talk about things with the words of your predecessors?

"But Xiu still thinks that the lord is wrong." Yang Xiu said solemnly, then ignored Xun Yu and left directly, ready to think about how to persuade Chen Mo.

Alas~

Xun You can see that Yang Xiu is a little smart, and he can be said to be extremely smart in this regard, and there are few people in the world who can compare, and he is also efficient, but to be a qualified strategist, it is not enough, it is too much, he doesn't want to persuade again, sometimes once people's thinking is fixed, it is difficult to change.

On the other hand, after Chen Mo gave the order, he began to deploy, but the nine small villages outside the city could no longer be kept, and it was okay to deal with the Yuan army who had no morale, but against Cao Cao, it was a little too arrogant, and it was easy to be broken by each one.

Chen Mo ordered people to demolish the nine small villages, Xu Huang continued to guard the turbid Zhangshui, and at the same time combined the camps of the generals into a battalion, standing in the west of Yecheng, led by Gao Shun, Cui Geng, Bao Geng, Shi Geng, Zhang Xiu, Pang De as deputy generals, and the rest of the generals returned to the city, the two sides were in a corner of the trend, and at the same time deliberately set aside the moat culvert to give Cao Cao a chance to come in.

As for whether Cao Cao will be fooled, Chen Mo didn't think about it, anyway, this is just an idle move, whether Cao Cao is fooled or not, it will not hinder the overall situation, at most it will hit Cao Jun's morale, that's all.

On the other hand, Ma Chao, Pang De, and Zhang Xiu's pursuit and shouting did make many Jizhou army generals lead their troops to vote, Yuan Shang found out and immediately set up camp, and at the same time immediately clear the army, and replaced all the generals whose families were in Yecheng, although there was a lot of chaos, but in the end it was successful.

"Lord, nearly 6,000 people have gone, and now they have thrown themselves to Yecheng." Gao Ran came to Yuan Shang's side, and his voice was a little low.

"The thief is despicable, I swear to kill this man!" Yuan Shang was stunned when he heard this, after such a purge, almost all the familiar generals under his command were taken into custody, if it weren't for Gao Ran's firm position, maybe even Gao Ran would have been detained.

Morale has not turned around much because of Yuan Shang's move, after all, many soldiers' families are also in Yecheng, but they are not powerful and have not been slaughtered by Chen Mo, but in terms of morale, they will not rise because of Yuan Shang's move, at most it is also the time of battle, because of the replacement of generals, there will not be such a thing as before, and the fight can still be fought, but the combat power is worrying.

Gao Ran didn't speak, just quietly waited for Yuan Shang's order.

"Lord, I'll retreat here to repair." On the side, Tian Feng sighed, it was no longer suitable for marching now.

At this moment, Feng Ji suddenly walked in quickly and said to Yuan Shang: "Lord, the big thing is not good, that Tai Shi Ci has attacked Changshan, and now he is approaching Zhongshan!" ”
