"Great joy, great joy, great joy." Yanzhou Jiyin, Cao Cao's army camp, Mao Jue hurriedly ran into Cao Cao's army tent, and began to shout outside the tent, "Congratulations to the king, congratulations to the king." ”

"Where does the joy come from?" Cao Cao, who was dressed in filial piety clothes, asked Mao Jue in surprise. Since Yuan Shao's army counterattacked with all his might, Cao Cao has not had a happy event, 80,000 Cao Cao's army against 500,000 Yuan Shao's army, the disparity in strength is huge, Cao Cao and Guo Jia can not directly defeat Yuan Shao in the positional battle even if they have great ability, they can only rely on the Yellow River natural danger and Yuan Shao's stalemate, completely falling to the disadvantage. The room leak happened to rain overnight, because Cao Cao fought with Yuan Shao's army with all his might, and the production was abandoned due to the lack of manpower in Qingzhou in the rear, Cao Cao's army's military rations were already less than a month, and the grain and grass in Qingzhou's inventory were also extremely scarce, unable to support the front line, Cao Cao was desperate, and had plans to withdraw his troops.

"Great joy, great king!" Mao Jue bowed deeply to Cao Cao, and said with joy: "Just now our army sent accurate news, Dong Thief sent General Pang De to lead 10,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry to Baima to reinforce Yuan Shao's army. ”

As soon as Mao Jue's words fell, almost all of Cao Cao's faces changed, Cao Cao's army was already at a disadvantage, Yuan Shao received strong reinforcements, and the situation of Cao Cao's army was even worse. The impatient Xiahoudun scolded: "Nonsense! The enemy has increased troops, and it is an extremely tricky Xiliang Iron Cavalry, you actually say that it is a great joy? Others echoed one after another, and even suspected that Mao Jue was frightened into insanity when he received the bad news, only Cao Cao, Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai were so happy that they almost didn't laugh out loud, and the others couldn't help but be surprised when they saw Cao Cao's joy, so they held back the scolding to their mouths.

"Congratulations, the king." Xi Zhicai also gave Cao Cao a big gift with a smile, and then explained to everyone: "Princess, Dong thief's reinforcement of Yuan Shao is not aimed at our army, but it is greatly disadvantageous to Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao's death is not far away!" ”

"What do you mean by that?" Xiahou Dunhu asked.

"Yuan Rang, Dong Thief is not here to help Yuan Shao, but to help Gu Ye." Since his father's death, Cao Cao rarely showed a smile and explained in person: "The most taboo person of Dong Thief at present is not only a lonely person who is broken and withered in Qingzhou, but Yuan Shao who owns the land of two states, Yuan Shao is not destroyed, and the rear of Dong Thief will never be at peace!" Long before Dong Thief went south to attack Jiangnan, Dong Thief was worried that it would be difficult for Lonely Force to hold Yuan Shao, so he specially sent someone to poison Yuan Shao's first general, Wen Chou, and Lone could take the opportunity to break through Wen Chou's army and defeat Yuan Shao with the power of a state. Lone dared to conclude that Pang De must be shouldering Dong Thief's other missions, and he was secretly helping Gu to break Yuan Shao and eliminate Dong Thief's henchmen! If Lone's prediction is good, Dong Thief's envoy will contact Lone in the near future to discuss the time to start the army. ”

After Cao Cao finished speaking, Cao Cao's army was full of joy and beauty, and Xiahou Dun laughed and said: "This Dong thief is really not a thing, whoever forms an alliance with him will be killed by him, Yuan Shao has to suffer this time." But fortunately, our army finally has a chance to turn defeat into victory this time. ”

"Don't be too happy too early, with the treachery of Dong Thief, it is impossible to help our army eliminate Yuan Shao in vain, so that our army can successfully take Jiyou Erzhou." Guo Jiapo cold water. During Kang Peng's southern expedition to the south of the Yangtze River, Cao Cao's fine work found another great doctor Zhang Zhongjing in Nanyang, Cao Cao in order to treat Guo Jia's illness, secretly sent someone to invite Zhang Zhongjing, Zhang Zhongjing was born in the family, Cao Cao who obtained the blood edict of Emperor Han Xian had a good impression, and happily came to treat Guo Jia, and found a big secret, Guo Jia's illness was not only caused by his weak body and accumulated work since childhood, but also suffered from a chronic poison, and this poison Cao Cao also has it, but the poison is not deep and has not yet appeared. Cao Cao's nose was almost crooked after he knew, and the first thing he did was to scold Kang Peng for being despicable and shameless, and greeted all the eighteen generations of Dong Boss's ancestors, fortunately, Zhang Zhongjing was able to detoxify this poison, and after some careful conditioning, Guo Jia's body slowly recovered, and now he can move freely, and he doesn't have to be carried or carried when he walks like before.

"What Feng Xiao said is good." Cao Cao nodded and said: "Dong thieves have always been shameless, and they will definitely take advantage of the decisive battle between our army and Yuan Shaojun, and suddenly send troops to attack Yuan Shao's rear and steal the fruits of our army. Guo Jia stopped talking, just stared at the military map, thinking about the next tactic, Cao Cao's army knew that he didn't like to be interrupted when he was thinking, including Cao Cao, they all held their breath and waited quietly for Guo Jia's opinion.

At this time, a herald came in and saluted Cao Cao: "Report to the king, someone from the Ai family in Chang'an has come to my military camp, saying that there is a confidential matter to see the king." ”

"Let him in." Cao Cao knew that this was Kang Peng's secret envoy, and at the same time Cao Cao was angry, although the enlightened Cao Cao admired Kang Peng's proposal to put forward the governance measures of equal emphasis on agriculture and industry in the world, but Kang Peng also raised the merchant too high, Dong Zhuojun has a merchant as an official in every city on the territory, and the status of the merchant is often higher than that of the scholar, and even such an important position as a messenger is taken by a businessman, which is difficult for Cao Cao, who was born in the scholar family, to accept.

After a while, a businessman dressed as the shopkeeper of the Ai family came in, first saluted Cao Cao, and then took out a handwritten letter from Kang Peng from his hair and handed it to Cao Cao, Kang Peng's tone in the letter this time was extremely unpolite, and even more shameless, Kang Peng wrote in simplified Chinese: 'Ah Cover, Ming people don't say dark words, Lone wants to help you do it to Yuan Shao, Jizhou is half of us, Lone wants Yecheng, Wei County, Guangping, Changshan and Zhuo County, the rest belongs to you, Youzhou is remote, Lone estimates that you don't want to be attacked by Gongsun Du, who is good friends with Lone, Lone will reluctantly accept it for you. If you agree to Gu's terms, Yuan Shaojun's granary will be destroyed by fire on the night of the twenty-eighth day of the first lunar month; If you don't agree, pull it down, and help Yuan Shao kill you! The letter is more interesting - 'You know who Lone is.' ’

Cao Cao took Kang Peng's shameless blackmail letter and cried and laughed, and only handed the letter to Guo Jia after a while, Guo Jia read the letter and thought quietly for a long time, before he nodded lightly to Cao Cao, Cao Cao has always trusted Guo Jia very much, and he didn't even blink his eyelids, and immediately said to the shopkeeper of the Ai family who served as Dong Zhuojun's messenger: "Please report back to your lord, saying that Gu agreed." The messenger didn't say a word, and then turned around and left after a salute to Cao Cao, and when he got to the outside of the tent, the Ai family had already prepared three carrier pigeons, and the Ai family shopkeeper personally released the carrier pigeons, and the group left Cao Cao's army camp.

"Dong Thief has a lot of appetite." After Dong Zhuojun's messenger left, Guo Jia smiled at Cao Cao and said: "Not only does he want the fattest half of Jizhou, but he also wants to swallow Youzhou alone, but unfortunately he may not be able to swallow it this time." ”

"Bonghyo is so confident." Cao Cao also smiled and said, "There must be a clever plan." ”

Guo Jia smiled and nodded: "I don't dare to say the clever plan, but maybe I can make Dong Thief's bamboo basket empty ......."

……

Huguan, the junction area between Dong Zhuojun and Yuan Shaojun, in this middle zone, suddenly came a lot of Chang'an businessmen, selling a large amount of grain to pass through the customs to Jizhou to sell, Yuan Shao's territory is in short supply of civilian food, Yuan Shaojun's guard general Gao Gan naturally can't ask for it, but Dong Zhuojun's guard Zang Ba on the grounds that these grains are not available to the Yongzhou government, this batch of grain is suppressed, no matter how the senior cadres and those Chang'an businessmen plead or bribe, the praiseworthy Dong Zhuojun good cadre Zang Ba is iron-faced and selfless unmoved, Chang'an businessmen are helpless, had to put the grain near Huguan and be guarded by the men and people who transported the grain, returned to Chang'an to apply for road guidance, and told Gao Gan that he would transport more grain to Jizhou to make a big profit, Gao Gan did not doubt it, so in the next few days, although Yongzhou and Bingzhou continued to transport grain and horse material to Huguan, Gao Gan did not think of Dong Zhuojun or the clues of preparing for large-scale military transfers from this situation, and Yuan Shao, who was far away in Baima, naturally did not know. Out of assistance to his allies, Dong Zhuojun also began to transport weapons and ordnance to Huguan, but the speed was relatively slow, and it was estimated that they could not be transported to Huguan until near the end of the first month.

……

"Brother Ling Mingxian, let's do it!"

Unknowingly, it was the twenty-eighth day of the first month of the sixth year of Chuping, in Wuchao, in the granary of Yuan Shaojun, Chun Yuqiong shouted to Pang De with a wine glass, and took the lead in raising his head and drinking the corn wine produced in Chang'an in the cup. Since Pang De and others arrived at Wuchao, Chun Yuqiong can be regarded as having found a confidant, Pang De has a lot of wine, Cheng Lian and Wei Xu have a good amount of wine, as for Ma Zhong, who is carrying the hangover pills prepared by Wenhua Hou in his arms, Chun Yuqiong treats him as a brother, and in less than a few days, Chun Yuqiong left behind the task of monitoring the four generals of Dong Zhuojun, and often took the generals of Wuchao and the four generals of Dong Zhuojun to drink until late at night, plus the wealthy Dong Zhuojun soldiers were generous, and soon became angry with Yuan Shaojun's soldiers. Dong Zhuojun has free access to the Wuchao granary, which is more convenient than in his own army. Sometimes Pang De and the others muttered in private, Yuan Shao sent Chun Yuqiong, a drunkard, to guard the granary, which was simply putting the granary on the fire pit.

"General Chun, please." Pound laughed and drank the wine—at least half of it was poured out of his mouth, but unfortunately Chun Yuqiong was already drunk and couldn't see Pound's little tricks. Pang De put down the wine glass and gave Ma Zhong a look, Ma Zhong immediately picked up a jar of wine and walked to Chun Yuqiong, and laughed: "General Chun is so arrogant, I don't know if General Chun can still drink it, the villain wants to drink this altar of wine with General Chun, thinking that he will have fun." Chun Yuqiong didn't say a word, snatched the wine jar in Ma Zhong's hand, raised his head and poured it wildly, Ma Zhong and Pang De applauded loudly, Chun Yuqiong was even more energetic, and simply poured all the jar of wine into his stomach, not even leaving a sip to Ma Zhong, which caused Ma Zhong to complain for a while, Chun Yuqiong punished himself with three cups, Ma Zhong just laughed, and Wei Yuanjin and Han Juzi were also poured a lot of wine, and the two Yuan Shaojun generals were also very drunk.

By the second watch, Chun Yuqiong had completely drunk on the seat, Wei Yuanjin and Han Juzi were also drunk, lying on the ground and talking nonsense, Pang De and Ma Zhong saw that the time had come, so they asked Yuan Shaojun's soldiers to help Chun Yuqiong and others go back to the tent to rest, and Pang De and Ma Zhong quickly returned to Dong Zhuo's military camp. As soon as Pang De and Ma Zhong entered the big tent, Cheng Lian came up and hugged his fists and said: "General, the soldiers of our army have all been prepared, the thatch, firewood and other materials have been prepared, and the sulfur has also been taken out of our horse feed pile and distributed to the soldiers. ”

Pang De nodded, turned his eyes to look at Wei Xu, and Wei Xu immediately replied: "General, the ferry has been controlled by our army, in addition to the original three pontoon bridges, our army is rushing to build two more, and it is estimated that the third watch can be built." ”

Pound was overjoyed and immediately ordered: "Gather the soldiers and do it immediately!" ”

"Do it right away?" Wei Xu hesitated a little, "In the evening, the enemy will send Lu Weihuang and Zhao Rui to Baima, and they may be coming back, let's do it now, is it too hasty?" ”

"There's no time." Pang De said coldly: "Our army and Cao Cao agreed to start tonight, take advantage of the second watch now to set fire to the grain, Cao Cao raised troops to attack Baima, Yuan Shao can't free up our army, our army can take advantage of the black to escape, otherwise our army will be surrounded by Yuan Shao's army!" After Pang De and the others found that it was easier to burn the black nest than to burn their own home, Ma Zhong immediately got in touch with the Dark Moon Group that was originally lurking in Yuan Shao's army and got in touch with the rear, so they agreed on a time to start with Cao Cao's army.

"Yes!" Wei Xu and the others did not hesitate any longer and replied in a low voice.

……

Yuan Shao just received a letter from his nephew Gao Gan Kuaima, which said that on the twenty-seventh day of the first lunar month, Dong Zhuojun's generals Li Dao and Guo Yan escorted a batch of weapons and ordnance enough to arm 100,000 troops through Huguan, including Yuan Shao's long-coveted catapult and foot bow, and they were rushing to Baima day and night. After receiving this news, Yuan Shao was so happy that he couldn't sleep, Yuan Shao's army was unable to defeat Cao Cao's army for a long time under the condition of occupying the advantage of troops, because Yuan Shao's soldiers were not as brave as Cao Cao's army, and Yuan Shao's subordinates lacked training talents like Yu Ban, Gao Shun and Lu Su, so they could only pin their hopes for enhancing combat effectiveness on equipment.

"When the weapon arrives, kill Cao Cao first, and then kill Liu Bei." Yuan Shao said with a beautiful fantasy in his heart: "Lao Dong is also in his fifties, and he can live for a few years, and when he dies, who else can suppress the major factions in the Xiliang Army?" Lao Dong's son is young, and the Xiliang army is determined to have civil strife, and at that time, I will raise troops to break through each other, and I am afraid that the world will not be surnamed Yuan? It's ridiculous that my brother Yuan Shu dared to be the emperor without even having the territory of a state, and the position of this emperor still belongs to me Yuan Shao! ”

"Father, the child has something to ask for." Seeing that Yuan Shao was in a very good mood, Yuan Shang took the opportunity to plead with Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao glanced at his most beloved youngest son and replied happily, "What's the matter with my son?" Only pipes come. ”

"Father." Yuan Shang was suddenly a little shy, and said with a red face: "The child is eighteen this year, and he is not married, and the child heard that His Royal Highness King Kang has a granddaughter, who is the daughter of the late Taifu Li Ru, and was born like a flower (?) The child wants to ...... and wants to ....... ”

"Hahahahaha." Before Yuan Shang finished speaking, Yuan Shao had already laughed out loud and quipped: "My son has grown up and knows that he misses his wife." Okay, as soon as Cao Cao is destroyed, my father will propose marriage to King Kang for you, and the granddaughter of King Kang is also the county lord, barely worthy of the fourth and third dukes of our Yuan family. ”

Yuan Shang was overjoyed and was about to say thank you, but Yuan Tan and Guo Tu were like five thunderbolts, and without waiting for Guo Tu's eyes, Yuan Tan had already rushed forward and knelt down, and said to Yuan Shao: "Father, the child has also admired Mrs. Li's daughter for a long time, and he has been in love for a long time. Speaking of this, Yuan Tan took out the portrait given by Xu Shu from his bosom and held it with both hands, "Father, please see, this is Miss Li's portrait, which Miss Li entrusted someone to transfer to the child, please father not to break up the happy marriage between the child and Miss Li." ”

"Oh, is there such a thing?" Yuan Shao took the scroll strangely, seeing that the girl on the painting was indeed very beautiful, Yuan Shao couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, he loved Yuan Shang the most, but Li Ru's daughter exchanged portraits with the eldest son he didn't like, it can be seen that the roots of love have been planted, and it would be immoral to break them up.

"Father, big brother is talking nonsense!" Yuan Shang was anxious, yelled, and also took out the portrait of the meat collection, handed it to Yuan Shao with both hands, and shouted: "Father, this is the real portrait of Miss Li!" ”

Yuan Shao was even more surprised, snatched the portrait, and after just one glance, his face changed drastically - the two portraits were exactly the same! Yuan Shao lifted the two portraits, faced Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan, and shouted: "Two evil animals, how can your portraits be the same?" Honestly, where did these two portraits come from? ”

Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan were dumbfounded, Guo Tu and Feng Ji were also dumbfounded, and although Yuan Shaojun's other civil and military officers admired the beauty of the girl in the painting, they also stared at Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan strangely. After staying for a long time, Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan murmured in unison: "It was sent directly by Xu Shu, the envoy of King Kang." ”

"Xu Shu? Xu Yuanzhi? Yuan Shao seemed to think of something, but he couldn't figure out the key.

Yuan Shao was thinking and meditating, and a herald suddenly stumbled in outside the tent, and as soon as he entered the tent, he shouted: "Lord, the big thing is not good, the northwest is blazing, it is the direction of the black nest!" As soon as the words fell, Yuan Shaoteng stood up, his face immediately turned pale, and Yuan Shaojun's civil and military forces were no better, and their faces became whiter than white paper.

"Who attacked the Black Nest?" As soon as Yuan Shao wanted to say this, another herald rushed in, kneeling down in front of Yuan Shao with a feather arrow tied to a letter in his hand, "Lord, this is what Cao Cao's army shot into my military camp." ”

Yuan Shao quickly snatched it, trembling hands unfolded, seeing that the handwriting of the letter was very familiar, it was his old colleague Cao Cao in Luoyang handwriting, the letter wrote: Benchu virtuous brother, lonely many times advised you not to trust Dong thief, but unfortunately the virtuous brother is obsessed, now Dong thief sent to the lonely army, about the lonely to divide Jizhou, Dong thief burned the food of the virtuous brother, the lonely attack on the younger brother's army, can the virtuous brother see the true face of the Dong thief? Lone and the virtuous brother are family feuds, and Dong thief is the national hatred, the national hatred is greater than the family feud, Lone decided not to avenge the family for the time being, the virtuous brother quickly went to save Wuchao and Yecheng, late is too late, remember. Foolish brother Cao Cao, King of Wei.

Was Cao Cao really so kind to help Yuan Shao? Will Pound be able to escape the encirclement unscathed? Was Kang Peng pitted by Guo Jia once? What is Dong Zhuojun's main force doing? For more information on what happened next, see the next chapter.
