Yuan Tan deceived Feng Ji from Yuan Shang, and he was not afraid that Yuan Shang would make a ghost from behind for the time being. It was decided to send Cao Cao first, and then think about how to deal with Yuan Shang when he came back.

Yuan Tan rose up from the village and marched to Liyang, opposite Cao's army.

At this time, Cao Cao had already led the army to join Guo Jia and others, and the army was here.

The next day, the two armies lined up and fought in the field.

Yuan Tanyan: "Wang Zhao, you are the vanguard!" ”

After speaking, he will Wang Zhao ride forward.

Cao Cao saw it, "Xu Huang, you should respond." ”

"Yes!" Xu Huang rode his horse and rushed away, swinging a big axe, Wang Zhao raised his knife to slash, Xu Huang and his tricks rounded, seeing that this person was just like this, seeing that he took advantage of his gap, he attacked, and he hit it with one blow, and cut it under the horse.

Cao Cao saw that Xu Huang was victorious, and the army was greatly invigorated, "Wait for the charge to help!" ”

Cao Bing shouted and rushed forward, taking advantage of the momentum to rush away, Yuan Tan's army was invincible and left in defeat.

Yuan Tan collected his troops and returned to the village, thinking that the defeat was due to the lack of soldiers, so he immediately sent people to Jizhou to ask Yuan Shang for help and asked him to send troops to help.

Jizhou

Yuan Shang got his letter asking for help, and immediately summoned the trial and others to discuss the matter, "Yuan Tan asked me to send troops to rescue, should I give it, and how much?" ”

Judging the words: "If there are too many soldiers than Yuan Tan, if he defeats Cao Cao, not only will this soldier not be returned, but he will also come to attack Jizhou later." But I still have to give, give 5,000 soldiers. ”

Yuan Shang listened to his words and sent 5,000 soldiers to help.

Cao Junzhong

Cao Cao learned from the report that Yuan Shang sent troops to help and discuss with others.

Guo Jiayan: "Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang are now incompatible, Yuan Shang will definitely not send too many soldiers to help, he is afraid of what Yuan Tan will do afterwards, so I can send an army out to kill all the helpers." ”

Cao Cao listened to his words and ordered Le Jin and Yu Ban to lead an army to besiege them halfway.

Le Jin and Yu Ban led the army to besiege and kill, and as Guo Jia said, the enemy army was very small, only 5,000, and the two surrounded and killed them all.

Yuan Tan learned that Yuan Shang only allocated 5,000 troops, and killed him halfway, so he was furious and summoned him to kill him.

Feng Ji said in horror: "Let me write a book, and ask him to save him personally!" ”

Yuan Shang received the book of Feng Ji and asked for trial.

Judging the words: "Don't pay attention to it, just use Cao Cao's hand to get rid of Yuan Tan." Now that we are waiting for it, Yuan Xi and Gao Gan are coming, Xiliang Ma Teng, and Southern Xiongnu Shan Yu Huchuquan are all united with us, what else do we need Yuan Tan to do? ”

Yuan Shang followed his words and asked the envoy to go back and inform him that he would not send troops to help.

Yuan Tan learned that he directly beheaded Feng Ji. Yuan Tan Yu Guo Tuyan: "Now that we are in a predicament, I want to surrender Cao Cao, what if? ”

Guo Tuyan: "I can only do this, I will definitely die when I return to Jizhou, it is better to vote for Cao, use his strength to defeat Yuan Shang, and he will find an opportunity again in the future." ”

This matter was known by the fine work placed in Yuan Tan's army, and then reported to Yuan Shang in Jizhou for trial and left.

The trial learned that he immediately found Yuan Shang, "If Yuan Tan surrenders to Cao, it will be unfavorable to us, there are old Yuan Tan people in the four states, and then Cao Cao will attack him in the name of the heir, and the lord will be poisoned by you, and the eldest son's succession to the throne is orthodox, and it will be tampered with by us, which will definitely be unfavorable to the hearts of the army and the people." Attacking Jizhou, we are in danger. ”

Yuan Shang also knew the harm, "Our allies, how are the soldiers everywhere?" ”

The judge said: "Complete." ”

Yuan Shangyan: "Okay! I will lead the army to help Yuan Tan, defeat the Cao thief first, and then destroy Yuan Tan! ”

The next day, the two brothers Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang led 30,000 troops to help him first, and Yuan Tan learned that Yuan Shang was coming, so he gave up his plan to surrender.

Guo Yuan, Hedong Taishou, got the order of Yuan Shang, and Gao Gan and the Southern Xiongnu joined forces in three ways to attack Hedong and contain Cao's army. Guo Yuan is an extraordinary person, and everywhere he passes, he conquers everything.

Cao Zhaizhong

Cao Cao knew about this matter and discussed it with everyone, "The appeal of the four state pastors is really different, and now they can still gather people from all walks of life to gather and unite." Even Ma Teng of the Xiliang Army also helped. This battle is still difficult to win, what do you think? ”

Shi Yue was a little stunned when he heard it, there is no such thing as this romance strategy, this is obviously a big war? Shi Yue thought about it, no, Luo Guanzhong, you didn't write it, after beating Yuan Shao, the incident of beating these two people was written in a jump, and a year has passed at every turn, what happened this year? Big guy, you pit me! Bonghyo depends on you!

Guo Jiayan: "Ma Teng boasted of being a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, when our army fought with Yuan Shao, this person was unmoved, he could have led the army to attack Xu Du, and attacked our army in the name of Kuang Fu Han Dynasty. When Zhong Xuan wrote about his interests, he withdrew from the army, which shows that this person is also hypocritically loyal, and if it is really loyal, I will destroy it now. ”

Cao Cao said: "What Feng Xiao said is the same as what I think." What is the plan of Fengxiao? ”

Guo Jia smiled and said: "I have a plan to respond, General Cao Hong, you lead the army as the vanguard to reject Yuan Shang, and let Zhong Xiang inform that Guo Yuan is Zhong Xuan's nephew, let Zhong Xiang lead the troops to respond." ”

Outside the city of Jiangyi, Guo Yuan is in the village

Guo Yuan's three armies have been attacking for many days in a row, and it is difficult to break the city.

The person who guards this city is Jia Kui, this person is loved by the people, his integrity is extraordinary, he sticks to the city, and Guo Yuan is difficult to break.

Guo Yuan said to everyone: "I have already heard of Jia Kui, but now from this matter, I have a good plan and have the intention of accepting it." "If you still attack by Shan Yu and the army, this city will be uncomfortable, and it will be broken in a few days!"

Inside the city

Guo Yuan's army has recently attacked urgently, and Jia Kui's strength is weak and difficult to defend, and he said to everyone: "Now the city will be uncomfortable, if we wait for the city to be broken, the people will be slaughtered, I can't bear it." I want to descend it. ”

One person said, "If the people are afraid that nothing will happen, you will die!" ”

Jia said: "It's hard to say, I want the people to open the door and ......"

In order to avoid the slaughter of the city, the people of Jiangyi surrendered in Kaicheng, and were willing to recognize Guo Yuan as the new Taishou, but agreed not to harm Jia Kui.

Guo Yuan agreed, and originally had the intention of accepting Jia Kui as a subordinate, and the people were willing to intercede for this person, which shows that this person is a person.

If Jia Kui did not surrender, he was imprisoned in the Huguan cellar.

Guo Yuan was overjoyed and convened everyone to discuss, "Now my lord Yuan Shang's army is containing Cao Cao's army, we are invincible here, and we can continue to go south, and the Cao army will definitely retreat in a short time, and my main army will be able to defeat the Cao army!" ”

Gao Ganyan said: "The general's strategy, I saw it today, it is really extraordinary, but Ma Teng's army is too slow, I will wait for the three armies to converge, and his fourth army has not yet arrived?" ”

Southern Xiongnu Shan Yu said: "Ma Teng's army is not my Western Regions army, so naturally it is not as fast as my army, and soon, it should also come." ”

Guo Yuanyan said: "Sooner or later, it doesn't matter, we will attack Hongnong and go down, from Shan Yu to the vanguard, the Western Regions army and horses are fast, and we will wait for the future!" ”

Seven years of Jian'an

Cao Cao's army crossed the river to attack Yuan Shang, and Guo Yuan led the army to take advantage of the main force of Cao's army to go north and attack Cao's garrison Hongnong.

In the Cao army village in Pingyang

"The Southern Xiongnu have garrisoned outside Pingyang." Detective newspapers.

Zhong Xuan, who led the army here, said: "Well, step aside." Then he said to everyone, "My nephew has caused trouble for everyone." ”

Someone said: "Now that the three armies are coming fiercely, we should retreat first." ”

Zhong Xuan said: "No, our army cannot retreat at this time, if he comes, he will not come back." My nephew is conceited and competitive, and the world does not know it, but I know it. Inform the military advisor that the plan can be issued. ”

Liyang Cao Jun Dazhai

Guo Jia received Zhong Xuan's letter and learned that Guo Yuan had penetrated deep into the hinterland of our army, "Inform Zhang Ji that he can act." ”
