Chapter 184: Guandu continues to fight
Liu Xie easily burned the grain and grass that Yuan Shao had hoarded in Wuchao, and after returning to the imperial camp, he quickly passed the good news to the other teams scattered around Guandu.
At the same time, he ordered all 30,000 soldiers of the imperial camp to immediately rise up and penetrate in the northeast direction.
Liu Xie said to the generals: "You are not troublesome, this time I went to rob the grain and grass of Wuchao, the location of my imperial camp must have been exposed, so it must be transferred quickly." ”
The army began to march, and Liu Xie saw Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao bumping all the way, and said apologetically: "Let the beauty be upset, it's my fault." ”
Da Qiao said: "Your Majesty, don't feel sorry for yourself, it is an honor for me and my sister to be able to follow Your Majesty to fight." ”
Xiao Qiao also said: "Yes, Your Majesty's brother, we are not too tired, as long as Your Majesty does not dislike my sisters." ”
On the way to the march, corpses can be seen everywhere, as well as scattered Yuan army stragglers, those who resist stubbornly, kill on the spot, those who surrender, drop their weapons, and take off their armor to save their lives.
There were also people fleeing everywhere, Liu Xie asked the soldiers to shout and let them go south to the outskirts of Luoyang to receive porridge, rice and winter clothes.
At the same time, when interspersed, it was strictly ordered to be explained, and it was absolutely forbidden to leak the emperor's identity.
The generals scattered in other departments, in order to confuse Yuan Shao, all called themselves the Imperial Camp and the Yulin Army.
However, it was said that Liu Xie's 30,000 Yulin army was interspersed with a market town, and he saw that this market town was also full of corpses, a depression, and there was not a single living person on the street.
Zhao Yun said: "Everyone be careful, protect the family owner, and be careful of ambushes." ”
Walking down the street, it was afternoon at the moment, and the sky was overcast and deadly silent. Liu Xie held the Heavenly Sword in his hand, and also looked around nervously.
On his side were big and small Joe, all of whom were trembling with fright.
Liu Xie whispered comforting: "Don't be afraid, there are so many of us." ”
As he was talking, there was the sound of horses' hooves in front of him, and Zhao Yun said: "Be on guard, take the arrow!" ”
After a while, the sound of horses' hooves approached, and a pair of men and horses arrived, but the leader was Zhang He. Lao Yuan shouted: "Zilong, it's me!" ”
Only then did everyone breathe a sigh of relief, Zhang He came to the front, led the thought Yuan general, and said: "Your Majesty, this is an old friend of Weichen, who was persuaded by Weichen to abandon the darkness and join the Ming to join our Han army." ”
I only heard the general say: "The criminal minister is high, see Your Majesty." ”
Liu Xie beckoned to him, called him over, and asked, "General Gao can abandon the darkness and turn to the light, congratulations." How is Yuan Shao now? ”
Gao Ran said: "Within Yuan Shao, there are many parties, there are many disagreements, Yuan Shao is indecisive, and brutal and unkind. I was framed by Guo Tu again, and the criminals did not want to stay for a long time, so they came to surrender. ”
Liu Xie said: "This is very good. ”
To arrange Gao Ran with the army, Gao Ran said where Yuan Shao's main camp was, and suggested that he could go to rob the camp tonight.
Liu Xie ordered Zhang He and Gao Ran to be the vanguards, and the imperial camp followed, robbing the camp tonight.
Liu Xie ordered to set up camp in this market town and let the soldiers search everywhere in the town to prevent Yuan's spies from happening. The spies were not found, but many refugees who had taken refuge were found, and Liu Xie reassured them with kind words, gave them food, and placed them in the middle of the town, and then let them go after the army was gone.
Liu Xie found a relatively large mansion in the town to be the imperial camp, and summoned Zhao Yun, Ma Chao and others to discuss the matter of robbing the camp tonight.
Liu Xie asked Xiao Luozi to take out the map, spread it on the ground, and asked Gao Ran to throw out the location of Yuan Shao's main camp.
When Gao Ran saw this map, he was stupid at the time, and he didn't expect that this map was extremely detailed and clear.
Liu Xie asked: "What's the matter, don't you understand?" ”
Gao Ran said: "No, Your Majesty, it's just that this map is too detailed, and the minister has never seen such a delicate map." ”
"Then hurry up and find out Yuan Shao's main camp."
"Yes," Gao Ran searched the map, and found it in a moment.
Liu Xie asked Xiao Luozi to call a few people to come over and light a few more lights, illuminate the map, and start researching.
Gao Ran pointed to the map and said that there were three small roads to quickly reach the main camp, Liu Xie nodded, and secretly listened to the small dictionary to introduce the map, and told him that there was moderate rain tonight.
After some research, Liu Xie said: "Tonight's three watches, the soldiers are divided into three roads, go to rob the village, Zilong and I all the way, Meng Qi all the way, Yu Yi and Gao Ran all the way." ”
All the generals were commanded to obey.
Liu Xie said: "It's still early, everyone goes to arrange it, take turns to rest, and we must strengthen the internal and external vigilance of the town." ”
The crowd dispersed, Liu Xie sat there with his eyes closed, Xiao Luozi, Da Qiao, and Xiao Qiao stood quietly on the side, silent.
Xiao Qiao wanted to call Liu Xie several times, but was quietly stopped by Da Qiao.
Xiao Qiao said: "Brother Emperor, he is too tired, he should relax." ”
Liu Xie opened his eyes and said, "It's okay, I just take a little rest, you can do whatever you want, don't care about me." ”
Xiao Qiao smiled and said: "Your Majesty, the slave and maid are too nervous to see you, or I will give you a song on the piano." ”
Liu Xie waved his hand and said: "Don't let the sound of the piano attract the enemy, bring Yuan Shao to the level, and I will listen to you play the piano again." ”
Little Joe pouted and said, "Okay then." Why don't you pinch your legs? ”
"No," Liu Xie immediately refused, and said in his heart: If these two beauties toss on me, how can I hold it? The two of them are still underage, and they have less than a month to spare, so we have to endure it.
"Your Majesty's ......"
"You two play, don't worry about me, just be happy."
Sure enough, the two sisters started playing by themselves in the royal camp, reading books for a while, chatting for a while, and playing chess for a while.
After dinner, Liu Xie went to bed early, and when it was almost the third watch, Xiao Luozi called him up, and Zhao Yun and others had already arrived.
At this moment, it was drizzling in the sky, and Liu Xie gathered his troops and said to the generals: "We must speed up our advance, and there will be heavy rain when we reach the enemy camp." ”
He also instructed the guards to take care of Er Qiao.
The 30,000 troops braved the night and headed in the direction of Yuan Shao's main camp in the drizzle.
The fierce battle for several days caused the Yuan army to suffer heavy casualties, and the grain and grass of Wuchao were burned out, so that Yuan Shao had no intention of fighting, and he never imagined that the Han army would come to rob the village in the rain.
Sure enough, when it was almost the fourth watch, the heavy rain poured, and the Han army came in three ways, Yuan Shao hurriedly met the battle, and the two armies fought in the rain.
The melee lasted until dawn, Yuan Shao lost most of his losses and fled to the northwest, and Liu Xie did not pursue, but let people spread around, to attack Yecheng and Liyang.
and pretended to be a march.
The reason why Liu Xie is like this is all because of the historical knowledge provided by the small dictionary, because in the original history, Cao Cao dealt with Yuan Shao in this way.
It's just that in modern history, the person who dealt with Yuan Shao was not Cao Cao, but he Liu Xie.
Yuan Shao was really fooled and ordered his eldest son Yuan Tan to lead 50,000 soldiers to Yecheng, and the general Xin Ming to lead 50,000 soldiers to rescue Liyang.
Liu Xie said to the generals: "Yuan Shao has been fooled, let's have a good rest, and then go to rob his main camp at night!" ”
