Chapter 7 The decisive battle of Guandu - Cheng Yu of the heart

"Lord, you want to take Liang County back!"

Guo Jia walked on top of the wooden collapse, his face bloodless. Cao Cao stepped forward to help Guo Jia up, and said with a worried face: "Fengxiao, rest well, don't worry about it." ”

Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao with grateful eyes, coughed lightly, and said a little anxiously: "Lord, Liang County can't be lost." Without Liang County, Yuzhou would be exposed to Xiang Ao's minions. ”

"Without Liang County, the lord is afraid that he will have to spend several times the previous troops to guard against Xiang Ao. In this way, how can the lord fight Xiang Ao in Guandu? ”

Looking at Guo Jia's worried look, Cao Cao was anxious and worried. Xun Yu, Xun You, Cheng Yu and others beside Cao Cao also frowned.

is worried about Guo Jia's condition, and even more worried about the current battle with Xiang Ao.

"Guo sacrificial wine, Liang County is important. But at this time, the army attacked Liang County, wouldn't it disrupt the lord's plan for a decisive battle with Xiang Ao in Guandu? ”

Cheng Yu was a little puzzled, at this time, he should send some soldiers and horses to block Xiang Ao's army in Liang County, why do you need to send troops?

"Besides, even if Liu Bei has ulterior motives and the Northern Expedition is not effective, at least he can understand the current situation, and it is impossible to really plan to withdraw from the Northern Expedition."

"What General Cheng said is extremely true, cough cough cough!" Guo Jia nodded lightly and coughed lightly: "The decisive battle of Guandu can almost determine the lord of the sky, so you must not be cautious." ”

"Although Xiang Ao personally led the army to attack Guandu, Jia Xu, Xi Zhong and others under Xiang Ao are the key to making plans."

"Jia Xu is good at speculating on people's hearts, and he is good at judging the overall situation, and Xu Shu is almost invincible in front of the battle. If all of Xiang Ao's soldiers and horses are contained in Guandu, the three generals under Xiang Ao's command will definitely have disagreements, and then it will be an opportunity for the lord to break the Guandu. ”

When Cao Cao heard this, Cao Cao and his generals bowed their heads and pondered, analyzing the gap between their lordship and Xiang Ao.

Feng Xiao can see that Xiang Ao must also know it. That's why we are in the situation we are in? ”

Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao and said firmly: "It must be so, otherwise Xiang Ao will not risk sending troops to defeat Zhuge Liang." ”

"It is rumored that Zhuge Liang is known as Wolong, and it seems that the last general is nothing more than that." Xiahoudun said disdainfully: "The last general, please stand and attack Liang County!" ”

Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia, saw Guo Jia nodded slightly, and ordered in a deep voice: "Xiahoudun listened to the order and immediately led an army of 30,000 to attack Liang County." ”

"No!" Xiahoudun excitedly received the order.

Cao Cao's decision seemed to make Guo Jia feel a lot more relieved. Guo Jia let out a long sigh, suddenly turned red, and kept coughing.

"Bonghyo!" Cao Cao's face changed greatly, and he snored anxiously: "Someone is coming, the doctor will be passed on!" Fast! ”

Immediately afterwards, there was a panic in Cao Cao's military tent.

"Lord, the spies are here to report, Guo Jia is critically ill!"

When Xiang Ao heard this, he stood up suddenly, a little excited, and a little regretful and asked, "Really?" ”

Although Jia Xu was a little strange, why was his father-in-law's dark color so complicated, and asked suspiciously: "Lord, is this?" ”

Xiang Ao coughed embarrassedly twice, sighed and said, "Guo Jia can be described as a ghost, but it's a pity that the ambitions are different. ”

When Jia Xu heard this, he also shook his head with some pity and said, "That's true." If the lord can get Guo Jia, I don't know how much Kyushu will have at this time, and it will be the lord's territory. ”

Xiang Ao took a deep breath, suppressed the thoughts in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Guo Jia is the first strategist under Cao Cao,

Now Guo Jia is seriously ill, but it is a good time not to be lost. ”

Jia Xu didn't say much, just nodded approvingly.

"Someone!" Xiang Ao shouted, and Dian Wei hurriedly entered the military account: "Lord." ”

"Quickly send an order to Guandu, and at noon three days later, attack Guandu with the beacon fire as the signal."

Dian Wei's eyes lit up, and he clenched his fists excitedly: "No! ”

Three days later, Tiger Prison Pass and Guandu issued a horn sound that shook the sky. Whether it was Xiang Ao's Yan army or Chen Guo's Cao army, they launched a crazy attack on the other side at the same time. Cao Cao was not unwilling to listen to Guo Jia's words, and then sent troops to the Northern Expedition after getting rid of the troubles in Liang County.

Less than a day after Cao Cao decided to send troops to Liang County, Cao Cao's spies in Hebei reported back to Cao Cao, and Xiang Ao's army was ready to launch a fierce attack on Guandu in the near future.

In desperation, Cao Cao had to send troops to garrison outside Liang County, and at the same time, lead a large army to fight a decisive battle with Xiang Ao.

"Lord, Xiang Ao's offensive is too fierce."

Cao Hong rushed into Cao Cao's tent in embarrassment, and said with some panic: "Since Xiang Ao's army launched an attack at noon, there have always been boats on the Yellow River. ”

Cao Cao was not as flustered as Cao Hong imagined, and said with a calm face: "Isn't Xiang Ao's army not good at water warfare? ”

"What about the water station, Xiang Ao seems to be crazy, and plans to fill the official ferry with his life." Cao Hong gritted his teeth and said that he rushed to the nest fire for Xiang Ao's helpless behavior.

"Want to fill it with your life?" Cao Cao frowned, lowered his head and pondered for a moment and said: "Quickly send people to find as many ships as possible, put only hay and tung oil on top of them, light them and push them over." ”

"My lord, no!" Xun You hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him: "Recently, the wind direction above the Yellow River has been uncertain, if the lit ship is knocked to meet the south wind, wouldn't it..."

Cao Cao's brows furrowed even tighter, he thought about it, and said fiercely: "Gather the dead and use people to row over!" ”

Xun You raised his hand, as if he wanted to stop Cao Cao. But Xun You couldn't think of any good way at this time, so in desperation, he had to put his hand down again.

"What can Gongda do?"

Xun You thought for a while, and said with some solemnity: "Lord, at this moment, I can only ask Liu Bei to send troops again. Then divide the troops in Qingzhou and harass Xiang Ao's army. ”

Cao Cao nodded, and said a little helplessly: "It's all about it." I just hope that Xiang Ao didn't deploy too many troops in Qingzhou. ”

"My lord, the minister has a plan!"

When Cao Cao heard this, his face was overjoyed, and he looked at Cheng Yu who was speaking and asked, "What is Zhongde's plan, say it quickly." ”

"Since the Lord's army may not be as strong as that of Yan Guo, why don't you send an envoy to the northern frontier to contact Xianbei?"

"Xianbei?" Cao Cao's face changed: "No, we are Han people, how can we be with Xianbei?" ”

Cheng Yu smiled lightly: "No, no, no." ”

"My lord, Xiang Ao has put all his thoughts on the Central Plains in recent years, and I am afraid that Xianbei in the north has already cultivated and recuperated and grown stronger again."

"Now that the lord and Xiang Ao are in a decisive battle, isn't it just the time for revenge for Xianbei?" Cheng Yu's face was a little gloomy, and he continued: "Xiang Ao doesn't know the dignity of my Han people, so he lets the Xianbei, Hu people, Qiang people and Han people live together, and even intermarry, what is the difference between this behavior and the blood of cholera and my Han people?" ”

After contacting Xianbei to discuss Xiang Ao, the lord can also pass it on to the world, saying that Xiang Ao is not a Han person, so he will not pay attention to Han people and foreigners

The difference between people. At that time, Xiang Ao will face more than Xianbei's revenge. ”

Heart-wrenching strategy! Cao Cao's expression changed greatly, although he was a little resistant, but following Cheng Yu's thoughts, Cao Cao actually began to get excited.

Cao Cao was in the big tent, pacing back and forth, hesitating.

"My lord, General Zhongde's plan is feasible!" While everyone was waiting, Guo Jia didn't know when he had come to the military tent.

"Fengxiao, what are you doing here? Hurry back to the bed and rest! Cao Cao stepped forward to help Guo Jia, whose complexion had recovered a little ruddy, with a worried expression.

"Don't worry, my lord, Jia is fine!" Guo Jia waved towards Cao Jie and continued: "The lord doesn't have to hesitate. Among the people under Xiang Ao's command, no less than half of them are foreigners. If Xianbei went south to fight Xiang Ao at this time, it would only be the nomadic people who would consume more. One solves the dilemma of the lord, and the other exterminates the troubles of foreign races, killing two birds with one stone, why not? ”

"From Yi Jia's point of view, it is not only necessary to unite the Xianbei of Northern Xinjiang, but even if it is the Western Liangqiang people, it is necessary to use it."

Guo Jia's words made Cao Cao's eyes light up.

Cao Cao sighed slightly, and then said with a calm face: "This matter will be arranged by Zhongde!" ”

"Zilian!"

"Lord!"

"Order Qingzhou and Yuzhou to defend all parts of the country, recruit county soldiers, and counterattack Xiang Ao on all fronts."

"Think twice." Cao Hong's face was solemn: "The forced recruitment of troops before has made the people of many counties and counties dissatisfied, and they are full of complaints, if it is again..."

"Move, you can recruit as many moves!" The corners of Cao Cao's mouth curled, and he said with a fierce look: "Tell the world that the traitor Xiang Ao has concealed his identity as not a Han Chinese, and has been lurking in the Han for many years, in a vain attempt to usurp the land of my Han Dynasty, and his heart can be punished." ”

"There is no need to cite evidence, just spread the current situation of the Yan Kingdom to the world, whether the corporal in the world believes it or not, let them think for themselves!"

Guo Jia, Cheng Yu and the others looked at each other, chuckling and nodding. Cao Hong also stared at him, and took the order with some excitement.

The occupation of Tiger Prison Pass and Guandu continued. Perhaps it was a tacit understanding, Xiang Ao's army and Cao Cao's army sent troops at the same time in Qingzhou and fought a big fight.

Before the winner was decided, rumors spread in the world that Xiang Ao was not a Han Chinese. A few days after the rumors, Cao Cao spread the word to the world to discuss the traitor Xiang Ao.

The one who responded most fiercely was Liu Bei. Not long after Liu Bei took Yizhou, if he wanted to win the hearts of the people of Yizhou, Liu Bei had long wanted to transfer the contradictions between the major clans in Yizhou to Yizhou. And the rumors at this time and Cao Cao's payment are just right.

Liu Bei has the identity of a clan relative of the Han family, and denounced Xiang Ao, so that many scholars in Yizhou who originally had different hearts temporarily put aside their dissatisfaction with Liu Bei, and unified the contradictions with the outside world, and asked to send troops to recruit Xiang Ao.

Even if there was no handover with Xiang Ao, and even Sun Ce of Wu Guo, who had already been allied, was forced by the situation to condemn Xiang Ao in one piece.

Half a month later, the world once again came with shocking news: Xianbei in the east rebelled again and sent troops to attack Youzhou; The Qiang people, who had just been pacified, also launched an attack on Liangzhou again.

"What a Cao Cao! What a traitor! Xiang Ao roared angrily, smashing what he could touch.

At this time, in the account of the Yanguo army, a group of civil and military generals looked at Xiang Ao, who had never been so out of shape. Some looked worried, others uncertain.

The Ya Que in the account was silent, Xiang Ao slowly turned his head, swept the people who lowered their heads, and said a little gloomy: "You also think that this king is not Han?" ”
