"Liu Jingsheng of Jingzhou, even though there is a general trend, but he is stubborn, but he is a guest who sits and talks, and he knows that his talent is not enough to resist Liu Bei, and he may not be able to control the heavy responsibility, and he will not be prepared for the light task. The two of them are like this, although the lord is on an expedition to the country, he is also worry-free. ”

Guo Jia's eyes shimmered, and Cao Cao immediately replied with his head bowed.

"What Feng Xiao said is extremely true. Liu Jingsheng is powerful, but he is just a mediocre person, Liu Xuande is poor, but he is secretly ambitious. This time, Liu Jingsheng included Liu Xuande, and sooner or later he would raise a tiger. Although the two are harmonious on the surface, they secretly have their own ghosts. Not a problem. ”

At this time, Cao Ren's face changed again, and he suddenly admonished.

"Hearing about the drastic changes in Xiliang, Wen Bufan broke Ma Mengqi's 150,000 army, and Liangzhou was already in his pocket. Wen Bufan is a hero in the world, and he has always acted treacherously and unpredictable. If he takes advantage of our army to travel far away, sends troops to Hedong and Bingzhou to attack Luoyang, so Luoyang is in danger! ”

As soon as Cao Cao heard Cao Ren mention Wen Han, his eyes suddenly burst into brilliant light and laughed.

"Hahahaha!! Zixiao doesn't have to worry too much. Wen Bufan and I know each other very well, and if the war between Cao and Wen is not started, once it breaks out, there is no way out. Wen Bufan has been in Yongzhou for the first time in recent years, and now that Liangzhou is not peaceful, how dare he act rashly at this time!? ”

"My lord, are you really so sure?"

"It's not ten, but it's eight or nine. Wen Bufan is cautious by nature, and he also knows my skills. I am jealous of each other with him, and without a chance of victory, neither I nor him can easily enter the army! ”

Cao Cao's words have come to this point, Cao Ren and other generals will no longer say more, Cao Cao then led the three armies, large and small, thousands of cars, swaying, mighty, looking forward. But I saw a yellow mist in the distance, a yellow desert desert, strong winds, rugged roads, and difficult for people and horses. The progress of the army was slow, and the soldiers had many complaints, Cao Cao couldn't help but have the heart to return to the army, and asked Guo Jia.

Guo Jia did not lie in the water and soil at this time, and often dreamed that the people of Nanpi were crying and complaining, restless in bed, and lying in the sick car. Guo Jia was afraid that Cao Cao would be worried because of this, so he was strict and kept the matter secret. When Cao Cao came to look for him, he saw that Guo Jia's face was pale and his body was thin, and he was shocked, and wanted to severely punish Guo Jia's entourage, but Guo Jia quickly persuaded him, and the entourage was thus exempted from his crime.

Cao Cao's ministers, all of them are talented and resourceful, but only Guo Jia understands Cao Cao's heart best, and everything can coincide with Cao Cao, Cao Cao likes Guo Jia the most, and even regards him as his subordinate 'Zhang Liang', extremely dependent. At this time, Cao Cao saw Guo Jia, who was seriously ill, and was anxious, this man, who was called a peerless traitor by the world, couldn't help but burst into tears.

"It's all because I want to level the desert, so that the prince has traveled far and wide, and even contracted the disease, how can I feel at peace! I and Fengxiao are like fish and water, and the fish will die when they leave the water. Fengxiao must not have the slightest missing, otherwise it will be difficult for me to dominate the industry!!

The desert matter is put on hold. I will quickly take Fengxiao back to Luoyang to recuperate, invite you to the world's famous doctors, and all the wars until you are cured, and then make plans! ”

As soon as Cao Cao's words came out, the surrounding soldiers and advisers changed color, and some of them were amazed that Cao Cao, who had always been ruthless, would give up his immediate profits for a Guo Jia. Some are jealous of Guo Jia. Some want to dissuade Cao Cao, and must not abandon the overall situation because one person is sick.

Just when everyone remembered, Guo Jia, supported by his entourage on the left and right, walked off the carriage and bowed his hand.

"Jia received the great favor of the lord, although death cannot be repaid. If the lord is a good man and abandons the overall situation, won't it chill the hearts of these soldiers who have suffered with the lord? What's more, the lord is determined to be in the world, and now the great trend of heroes has been born, and there is not much time left for the lord, to stabilize Hebei, the desert must be uneven.

The lord should march quickly, and Jia can return to the rear to recuperate. The illness on Jia's body is only a minor one, and it can be eliminated after a few months of recuperation. Don't worry too much, lord. ”

As soon as Guo Jia's words fell, Cao Cao's civil and military forces seconded the proposal. Cao Cao hesitated for a while, Guo Jia asked again, Cao Cao sighed, then agreed, and then asked Guo Jia again.

"I see that the north is rugged, the army is difficult to march, and the sergeant is quite resentful, what should I do?"

Guo Jia groaned for a while, although his face was bleak, but the light in his eyes was still compellingly bright.

"The so-called soldiers are fast. Today, thousands of miles to attack people, the emphasis is on its speed, and it is difficult to make profits because of the heavy baggage, so the lord is better than light soldiers and roads to cover his unpreparedness. But it is necessary to be guided by those who know the way. It can be done. ”

"The words of filial piety are very much in line with my wishes. In this way, according to the words of filial piety, I will take the light soldiers first. Feng Xiao returned to the rear first and recuperated with peace of mind. On the day of my triumph, I will have a big feast, celebrate with you Guo Langzi, stay up all night, and get drunk! ”

Guo Jia smiled slightly, quite indulgent, and asked again.

"I've worked hard, but don't just use good wine to do things. At that time, I will want the four beauties of Luoyang to accompany the banquet together! ”

"Hahaha. is a good prodigal son, when he smells the banquet, the wine is inseparable. Good! When the time comes, the prime minister will invite the four beauties of Luoyang for you to have a drink with you! ”

"Haha. If you have a banquet with the four beauties of Luoyang, you will die, and I will be blind! ”

"If you don't see you making great contributions, just by what you say, this prime minister should punish you for a big crime!"

The prime minister was angry. People are not grass and trees, who can be ruthless, try to ask the heroes in the world who do not love beauty. The lord is also a romantic character, people of my generation, don't you know that the peony flower dies, and the ghost is also romantic? ”

"In the name of filial piety and prodigal son, it is not a waste of fame. Hahahaha! ”

Cao Cao laughed loudly, and Guo Jia was like a close friend, making fun of it. Just when Cao Cao was in Hebei, his chief adviser Guo Jia fell ill and was sent back to Luoyang.

Cao Cao led his own army and continued to march towards the desert, approaching Liucheng, but was blocked by the shallow road, and the soldiers and horses did not enter. Cao Cao followed Guo Jia's words and asked the guide to guide the way in the army. Many people recommended Yuan Shao's old general 'Tian Chou', saying that he knew this situation well. Cao Cao summoned Tian Chou to ask.

Tian Chou really knows a lot about the land of Karasuma, and he told him immediately.

"There is water in autumn and summer, shallow and not passable to cars and horses, deep and not carrying boats, and it is the most difficult to move. It is better for the prime minister to return to the army, choose another long way, cross the danger of white sandalwood from Lulongkou, get out of the empty land, and approach Liucheng in secrecy to cover up his unpreparedness. It's so wasteful, but it can be captured in a fight! ”

Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard this, and Feng Tianchou was the general of Jingbei, as a guide, and led the way for the forerunner. Cao Ren is the second, leading the Chinese army to carry on. Cao personally escorted the army behind, and the army led light cavalry forward.

It is said that Tian Chou led Cao Ren to the White Wolf Mountain, and met Yuan Xi, Yuan Shang and tens of thousands of other horsemen who came to intercept and kill. Cao Ren didn't dare to act rashly and reported to Cao Cao. Cao Cao reined in his own horse, climbed high in the White Wolf Mountain and looked at it, and saw that there was no team of the soldiers, uneven, and there was no formation at all, and at first glance they were all rabble.

Cao Cao laughed and said to Cao Ren beside him.

"The barbarian people, they don't understand the tricks of the formation, the enemy soldiers are not in order, if they don't fight at this time, they will !?? when they will wait"

Cao Cao then ordered Cao Ren to attack. Cao Ren introduced Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Cao Chun, and Cao Hong, all leading tigers and leopards to ride, and went down the mountain in four ways, striving to attack urgently. The tiger and leopard cavalry, all by the elite group, and the formation is precise, the lethality is particularly sharp, attacking from all sides, the Badun army is in chaos, being slaughtered by the tiger and leopard riding blindly, fleeing in all directions, there is no power to resist. Cao Ren Pegasus rushed straight and went straight to take the Badun, who knew that there was wind left and right behind him, only to see Dian Wei on the left roaring, dancing with a double halberd, as if entering a no-man's land, flying away. Goodbye to Xu Chu on the right, the tiger's eyes are round, the tiger-headed knife in his hand, chaotic flying and splitting, all the soldiers and horses that block his entry are killed by him like a wave cracking, and the bloody wind and rain continue to fly. Seeing the situation, Cao Ren hurriedly whipped and flew, wanting to take the disaster first. When he saw the three generals of the Cao army, all of them were mighty and evil, they were afraid before fighting, and they fled with their horses. Seeing this, Dian Wei and Xu Chu scolded angrily in the back. Cao Ren didn't speak, and Chi Li chased and killed. Cao Ren Ma Jun was the first to arrive, and as soon as he lifted the lance in his hand, he stabbed him in the back. Badun hurriedly blocked with his knife and blocked several moves. At this moment, Dian Wei and Xu Chu were about to arrive, and they all shouted loudly.

"Where to go!!

Dian Wei and Xu Chu sounded like a thunder bell, shaking the liver and gallbladder violently, the gesture was slow, and Cao Ren grabbed the gap, connected the point with a long lance, first hit the big knife in the hand of Fei Dun, and then quickly speed up on the body of Badun, there were five or six blows, and Badun screamed again and again, fell off the horse, and saw death. Cao Ren killed Badun, quickly dismounted and cut off his head, and roared loudly, showing the surroundings. Seeing that the leader was killed, the morale of the Bandun army was suddenly weakened, and the fighting spirit was completely lost, and they surrendered one after another. Seeing this, Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang were powerless and frightened, knowing that it was difficult to resist the general trend of Cao's army, they quickly led thousands of horsemen to Liaodong. Cao Cao collected the army into Liucheng, and the reason why this battle was won was because of the merit of Tian Chou leading the way, so Cao Cao sealed Tian Chou as the Marquis of Liuting to defend Liucheng.

How do you know Tian Chou, who was sealed but did not accept it, kneeling on the ground and crying.

"It's just that a person who fled with righteousness has been blessed by the great grace of the prime minister to survive in the world. How can you invite Lu again! A certain death did not dare to accept the marquis. Don't blame the prime minister! ”

Cao Cao obeyed his righteousness and worshiped Tian Chou as the speaker. After that, Cao Cao comforted Shan Yuren and others, received 10,000 horses, and returned to the army on the same day.

The weather was cold and dry, there was no water for 200 miles, and the army lacked food, so they killed horses for food, and dug the ground for thirty or forty zhang to get water. Cao Cao thus temporarily lived in Liucheng, and soon after, Cao Cao received a letter from Guo Jia from Luoyang.

The entourage told him: "Guo Gong personally wrote this, and if the prime minister said in the book, the affairs of Liaodong will be settled." ”

Cao Cao was overjoyed, immediately opened the book and looked at it, nodded and sighed, and even said that it was wonderful. No one knew what it meant. The next day, Cao Ren led the crowd to the truth. "Liaodong is too guarded by Sun Kang, he has not been in service for a long time, he does not listen to the orders of the imperial court, and he wants to stand on his own. Now Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang are going to invest in it again, and it will be a trouble. It is better to take advantage of its unmoved, strike first, and quickly go to conquer it to pacify Liaodong. ”

Cao Cao laughed loudly and said with a rather unfathomable conclusion.

"Don't work for the public tiger, this matter has long been expected by Feng Xiao. A few days later, Gongsun Kangding would personally send the head of the second Yuan. ”

The generals refused to believe it, and they admonished one after another, but Cao Cao was determined, appeased the generals, and waited for the good news with peace of mind.

However, it was said that Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang led thousands of horses to Liaodong. Liaodong Taishou Gongsun Kang, a native of Xiangping, and the son of Gongsun Du, a general of Wuwei. On the same day, he knew that Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang were coming to vote, so they gathered with the subordinate officials of the headquarters to discuss the matter.

Gongsun Kang's younger brother, Gongsun Gong hurriedly admonished.

"Yuan Shao is in Japan, and he often has the heart to swallow Liaodong, and the Yuan family is all jackals. Now Yuan Xi, Yuan Shang's army is defeated and will die, there is nowhere to live, come here to be like-minded, unpredictable, I am afraid that the dove will seize the magpie's nest. If it is accommodated, it will be pictured. It's not as good as the elder brother, pretending to promise in detail, deceiving the second Yuan into the city to kill him, offering his head to Cao Cheng, Cao Cheng is worried about the second Yuan, if he sees us passing on the second Yuan's head, he will be overjoyed, and he will treat me again. ”
