Chapter 297: The Battle of Guandu (3)
Xu You came here, of course, to defect to Cao Cao.
In order to express his sincerity, of course, he will contribute to Prime Minister Cao Cheng.
Xu You said: "Everyone in the world knows that Cao Cheng is very deceitful, and he is not a good person at all. I voted with sincerity, but you are fooling me. ”
Prime Minister Cao Cheng smiled and said, "Don't you get tired of deceit?"
The art of war is sophistry!
The world is afraid of me, calling me the prime minister, calling me a hero, this is a name for the strong, there is nothing wrong with it, I thank them too late.
Xu You smiled and said, "If you add the word traitor before the title, this meaning is extraordinary."
After speaking, he showed a strange smile.
Cao Mengde smiled slightly and said: "If I trust the truth, I'm afraid the result will not be satisfactory, if you are Yuan Shao's spy who finds out about my military situation, I will die without a place to be buried!"
"Mr. Xu You, don't be angry, I am an old friend with you, I don't talk about business today, only about personal affairs, okay?"
Xu You said: "I treat you with the heart of a gentleman, and you treat me with the heart of a villain, which makes me very angry!"
Cao Mengde said: "Don't worry, I can trust you with the truth, the grain and grass I grabbed from Yuan Shao are enough to deal with the crisis in front of you!"
Believe it or not, it's true.
Xu You didn't believe it at first, but seeing that the soldiers in the barracks were in excellent spirits, he already believed it.
"Where can I get the food and grass?"
Cao Mengde said: "I heard carefully, there is a grain transport team that wants to send grain to Yuan Shao, and I will kill people halfway and take the grain!"
Xu You said: "The prime minister is really treacherous."
Non-toxic husband, I'm helpless!
Xu You said: "I know your suffering, and I am also here to give advice."
"Why do you have to contribute?"
Xu You said: "The public knowingly asks also!"
"That Hebei Yuan Shao was unkind and unjust to me, and he collaborated with the trial to plot to harm me, and accused me of crimes, so that I suffered an injustice, and I hated to eat his flesh."
"Coupled with the fact that this person does not accept advice and listens to slander, this kind of person will be killed by the prime minister sooner or later, so I hereby offer a plan to help Meng De and kill Yuan Jun!"
After hearing this, Cao Mengde was furious and suddenly realized.
"I can't imagine that you actually have a deep hatred for Yuan Shao."
"Isn't it, I want to kill his whole family and eat his flesh raw!"
"Don't worry, the revenge of the public, that is, my revenge, Meng De will definitely avenge you. Wait for me to catch Yuan Shao, cut him with a thousand knives, and vent the fire in your heart! ”
Cao Mengde made a statement.
Xu You said: "What you said is very reasonable, so I will offer a plan."
"Ming Gong fought against 800,000 people with a weak army, if it lasted for the sun and the moon, it was really a battle to the death! The generals of the Ming Dynasty made a dangerous move, and within three days, Yuan Shao's men and horses were self-defeating! ”
Cao Mengde pretended not to know, and held his hand and said, "Please sir teach me how to break the enemy."
Xu You said: "The Bird's Nest also! It is Yuan Shao's grain and grass land, and fireworks are prohibited, such an important place is related to the lives of 800,000 people, but Yuan Shao did not take it seriously and gave the lord a chance! ”
"Opportunity? Please explain. ”
"Wuchao, is Yuan Shao's lifeline, that Chun Yuqiong is addicted to alcohol, drunk all day long, and now he has been so convenient, and he is even more unscrupulous, whipping his subordinates, and many soldiers are afraid. This person is not the best person to guard the grain and grass! ”
"The prime minister can order his subordinates to fraudulently call General Jiang Qi sent by Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao ordered him to jointly guard the black nest, and then take advantage of his unpreparedness, burn his grain and grass, burn the baggage, Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses will be in chaos, if Yuan Shao loses this important place, 800,000 grain and grass are worried, and the soldiers will not attack themselves! It's lightning fast! ”
Cao Mengde was overjoyed, treated Xu Yu heavily, and left him in the village.
Subsequently, he summoned Jia Yidao, Zhang Liao, Cheng Yu, and Xun Yu to discuss matters.
Zhang Liao said: "The prime minister must not! You can't be in danger, if you are treacherous, you are afraid of being ambushed! ”
Jia Rudao said: "I want to offer this plan, Xu Yu is one step faster than me."
He smiled silently.
Xun You said: "Xu Yu's plan, although there is a certain risk, but it is very reasonable, if you succeed, you can defeat Yuan Shao's 800,000 horses!"
Cao Mengde said: "The generals must not be persuaded again!"
"I will personally lead the troops and horses to supervise the battle, and the generals should attack it with all their might."
"For me, the grain and grass are not to be feared, the grain and grass looted from Yuan Shao are enough to deal with, but this battle should be decided quickly!"
"For Yuan Shao, the black nest is the lifeblood of Yuan Shao, if the black nest is lost, Yuan Shao's grain and grass will be cut off, and the soldiers will be defeated without a fight!"
"Zhang Liao, Xu Chu, Le Jin, Li Dian, you follow me and lead 5,000 elite soldiers to attack Wuchao! This soldier has a strange move to become famous in a fight! ”
"The last general commands!"
"The last general commands!"
……
"The last general commands!"
……
That night, Cao Mengde led his troops to go in person.
Le Jin led an army to the left, Li Dian led an army to the right, and Cao Mengde personally led more than 1,000 people in the center.
The plan has been planned, raise the torch, and fight into the black nest together.
In Yuan Shaojun, the frustrated professor who was imprisoned watched the sky at night, only to see the Taibai Star retrograde, angry Xiaohan, the monarch star and the Big Dipper impacting each other, and the South Pole star was stunned.
shouted: "Disaster is coming!"
So, I asked to see Yuan Shao overnight!
At this moment, Yuan Shao was about to rest, when he suddenly heard that Fu Zhi strongly asked to see him, and showed great mercy to let him see him.
He thought that he had come to intercede, but what he said made him very angry!
In the big tent, Fu Zhu wore shackles and met Yuan Shao: "The lord is dead!" That Chun Yuqiong is addicted to alcohol and is often drunk like mud, and the lord will let him guard the land of the black nest and the grain, is it not to give it to Cao Cao? ”
Yuan Shao said: "Why do you teach me the importance of this place, I have sent 100,000 troops to guard this place."
Frustrated and said: "I watch the sky at night, the Cao army will come to rob the camp, and the lord should send more men and horses, so as not to be calculated by the Cao army!"
"Thou art a man of sin, and thou shalt have beheaded thee, and thou shalt remember thy past merits! Stand down! ”
"Lord, if you don't listen to people, it's too late to regret it!"
Yuan Shao was furious, ordered someone to escort him away, and said:
"Who betrayed the heart of the army and leaked the secret of heaven!?"
"Someone, behead the guards! Another person! ”
Cao Cao led his army to Wuchao, but whenever he met Yuan Shao's men and horses, they all said that they were Jiang Qi's men and horses, and they all passed unimpeded.
——
In the Wuchao camp, at the time of the third watch, Chun Yuqiong was drunk like mud and fell on the bed.
Suddenly, I heard the sound of agitation outside, and then got up and went outside the tent to check the movement, who knew that he was caught by Cao Jun on the spot just after going out!
In the nest, fires were already being raised all around, the granaries were burned, and the tents were set on fire.
Cao Mengde led the men and horses, and the gold armor and silver robes stood on the horse!
Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses Zhao Yu, when he flew back to transport grain, he saw the flames in the direction of Wuchao, and the smoke and clouds did not disperse, so he hurriedly returned to the army to rescue!
Yuan Shao's men came to the rescue, surrounded Cao Jun, and Cao Cao shouted: "Return to the horse and kill me, take my life!"
Xu Chu, Li Dian and others fought hard to kill, not afraid of death!
Yuan Shao's men and horses were all killed by Cao Cao!
After fighting until dawn, they had already occupied the black nest, burned the grain and grass, and everywhere they looked, the corpses were piled up, full of corpses, the tents were burned, and the banner of Yuan Jun fell to the ground.
Until dawn, the fire was still not extinguished!
Cao Mengde stepped off the horse and looked at the battlefield, the fire has not been extinguished so far, which shows how huge the number of people this place has!
After all, this is where Yuan Shao's life is located!
A large part of Yuan Shao's 800,000 army of grain and grass depends on the offerings here!
As you can imagine, there is a lot of grain and grass!
Burning so much grain and grass not only hit Yuan Shao too hard, but Cao Mengde also felt very sorry for these grains and grass!
After all, there are hundreds of granaries here, which are enough to cope with the consumption of his own people for ten years.
The soldiers resisted Cao Mengde's order to burn the grain and grass, and they couldn't bear it.
But there really is no way!
If Yuan Shao sends troops to recapture the grain and grass, these grain and grass will go into Yuan Shao's hands again!
Chun Yuqiong was defeated and captured by Cao Jun on the spot, and was escorted to Cao Cao at dawn!
Cao Mengde smiled and said, "Do you know your true appearance?"
Seeing that Chun Yuqiong didn't speak!
Cao Cao lifted his chin with a horsewhip and said, "Take a look, this is the black nest guarded by you." How do you feel when you see such a tragic situation? ”
Chun Yuqiong was furious: "Traitor, if you want to kill or chop, listen to it!"
Cao Cao wanted to kill him to hunt for brutality, but his position was too small.
"I'm not going to kill you! It's not interesting to kill people. ”
Cao Cao said: "Come here, carve a tattoo on his face, and write a wine bag and rice bag on it." Release, shame Yuan Shao! ”
Hearing this, all the soldiers laughed!
This is Chun Yuqiong's heavily guarded black nest, and I didn't expect it to be easily eliminated by Cao Mengde like this!
Chun Yuqiong's 100,000 horses surrendered to Cao Cao's 80,000, and the others who did not surrender became the undead under Cao's saber!
——
In Yuan Shao's army, the Chinese army has a big tent.
Chun Yuqiong returned from defeat, his face was tattooed and bloody.
Yuan Shao was furious: "Drink, drink, drink, why don't you drink to death!"
"The Lord spares his life......"
Yuan was furious and ordered someone to push it out and kill him!
None of the generals dared to intercede.
Yuan Shao said: "Cao Cao deceived people too much! If you don't kill Chun Yuqiong, you mean to humiliate me! ”
Zhang He Gao said: "The black nest is where the gate of life is, and it should be sent to the aid quickly!"
Guo Tu said: "No! Cao Mengde went out to attack the land of Wuchao and guarded the grain, Cao Cao's camp must be empty, lord, the opportunity must not be lost! ”
"Immediately send troops to attack Cao Cao's camp, if Cao Cao loses this camp, our army can directly take Xudu, even if Cao Cao returns, he will not be able to return to the sky!"
Gao Ran said: "It's all you and other coquettish literati who delay the fighter, Cao Cao out of the camp, he must have been prepared, with a follow-up move, if he attacks Cao Cao's camp, in case of a plan, Cao Cao will return to the army, he will lose all his efforts, and I will die!"
"Rescuing the black nest is the top priority, the grain and grass are still there, and it is easy to destroy Cao Cao!"
Yuan Shao is a person who has no opinions, seeing that you are reasonable, at this moment, they are arguing non-stop, and each has its own merits.
Yuan Shao couldn't make up his mind.
Guo Tu said: "Cao Mengde used all his forces to attack Wuchao, how could he leave a large number of men and horses to garrison the camp?"
Gao Ran said: "Cao Cao, Xiao Xiong, the art of war, and treachery!" Cao Mengde went out, how could he not make arrangements, if Cao Cao came back, I would have no place to die and be buried! ”
Guo Tu said: "As a general, killing people is like hemp, how can you say that you are afraid of death?"
Gao Ran said: "You don't want to cheat me, you are not afraid of death, you can put on armor and attack Cao Cao's army!"
The two of you talk to me, and they can't argue for a long time!
Yuan Shao took the case and got up: "Gao Lan, Zhang He is out of the ranks, I order the two of you to lead 5,000 men and horses to attack Cao Cao's camp, you can't resist, and those who delay the battle will be killed!"
"Jiang Qi, you lead 10,000 troops to rescue the Black Nest, don't be mistaken!"
——
Cao Mengde killed Chun Yuqiong's men, seized the armor of Yuan's soldiers, and ordered Zhang Liao to disguise Chun Yuqiong's subordinates to go to Yuan's camp.
Walking to the secluded path, I happened to meet Jiang Qi leading the troops to the rescue of the black nest!
Jiang Qi asked, "Who are you waiting for?"
Zhang Liao responded: "We are the subordinates of General Chun Yuqiong, Cao Cao has too many troops, and we can't stop it."
Jiang Qi suddenly did not doubt, and led the people and horses to pass by!
Zhang Liao slapped his horse and shouted: "Jiang Qixiu is leaving!"
Jiang Qi was defenseless, Zhang Liao had already killed in front of the battle, and his hand was up and down, cutting Jiang Qi into two pieces!
The Lord is dead, and the others surrender one after another, shouting, "I'll surrender!"
Cao Mengde saw that Zhang Liao returned victoriously and subdued more than 10,000 soldiers, and he was overjoyed and attached great importance to Zhang Liao.
In order to deter these people, Cao Mengde killed 3,000 people to deter them.
The rest were shaken.
Cao Mengde said to Zhang Liao: "My murder will prevent these people from rebelling in the future, so that they will be afraid, take precautions, and do not doubt."
Cao Cao also asked people to disguise Jiang Qi's soldiers, and returned to Yuan Shao to report that Jiang Qi had successfully killed Cao Cao, so that he could rest assured.
Yuan Shao learned the news, and the black nest was successfully recaptured.
is overjoyed, so he doesn't want to add troops to the black nest.
Only to Guandu to increase troops and attack Cao Cao's camp.
Zhang He and Gao Ran attacked Cao Cao's army, but Cao Mengde had already taken precautions and set up empty camps, and Xiahoudun, Cao Hong, and Xiahou Yuan were ambushed outside.
Seeing that Gao Ran led the troops into the camp, Xia Houdun, Cao Hong and others had already surrounded them from behind, surrounding them in the middle!
Look high and shout in the plan!
After driving the troops back to kill and recapture the way of life, the Yuan army was defeated, and after a lot of hard work to get out of the encirclement, they only left a hundred men and horses!
Everyone else dies and their souls return to their hometowns!
just came out of the encirclement, and caught up with Cao Mengde's return army.
Cao Mengde waved his troops and killed them directly, and the ghosts who killed them howled wolves, Gao Ran and others fought their way out of the encirclement and fled north.
——
Yuan Shao sat in the military tent, sighing and sighing, sad and sick.
The death of such a man made him lose his liver and intestines.
Guo Tu was afraid of Gao Gao, and Zhang He returned, proving his mistake, making Yuan Shao annoyed and killing himself.
Decide in advance to eradicate dissidents.
Guo Tu said: "Gao Ran and the others must be overjoyed to know that the lord's army has been defeated."
His words suddenly aroused Yuan Shao's suspicions.
"Why?"
Guo Tu said: "These two people have always meant to surrender to Cao, but they don't have any chances. The two often said that they wanted to defect to Cao Cao, and I asked why? ”
They said that Yuan Shao was an incompetent person, not enough to accomplish the great cause, and only Cao Cao was the Ming monarch. Therefore, if the lord asked them to attack Cao Cao, I am afraid that he will not do his best. ”
When Yuan Shao heard this, he was furious: "Such people must not be kept, and when they return, I will kill them!"
