Chapter 424, Zhang Xiu surrendered

The scout who was sent by Chen Gong to inquire about the news of Lu Zhuo and his party returned smoothly, such a big fire, even if it was dozens of miles away, it could be seen really, and the scout did not dare to slack off, so he turned around and returned to report to Chen Gong as soon as possible.

"Military advisor, I just got the news that Lu Zhuo led people to surround Mount Tai and is setting fire to the mountain, tens of thousands of Yuan soldiers are trapped on the mountain, life and death are unpredictable, and the situation is worrying."

After hearing this, Chen Gong subconsciously glanced at the northwest, although he couldn't see anything, but he could imagine the tragic situation of Yuan Shao and the others' lives, after a while, Chen Gong shook his head, frowned, and couldn't help but sigh, "Lu Zhuo, I really underestimated you, I didn't expect you to be so bold and ruthless." ”

Since sending troops to Xuzhou, Chen Gong's heart has been worried, he has dissuaded Lu Bu several times, asking him not to rush to send troops, as a result, Lu Bu insisted on going his own way, all he thought about was how to take Xuzhou, which was fertile for thousands of miles, as his own, even if he learned that Liu Bei sent troops to Shanyang, Lu Bu ignored it.

Up to now, Lu Bu's territory in Yanzhou has been encroached upon by Liu Bei step by step and easily swallowed up, and now Lu Zhuo is about to defeat Yuan Shao in one fell swoop, it is conceivable that once Lu Zhuo turns around and kills back to Xuzhou, what a dangerous situation awaits Lu Bu.

The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became, Chen Gong hurriedly went to find Lu Bu, who was in a daze alone in the tent at the moment, and kept muttering, "Diao Chan, soon we will be together!" ”

Lifting the curtain and seeing Lu Bu looking like this for a woman, a trace of disappointment suddenly flashed in Chen Gong's eyes.

coughed lightly, after a while, Lu Bu came back to his senses, Chen Gong hurriedly persuaded, "Lord, just got the news, Yuan Shao is trapped on Mount Tai, tens of thousands of troops are unable to escape, Lu Zhuo is setting fire to the mountain, Yuan Shao is about to be defeated, and I hope that the lord will send troops quickly, while Lu Zhuo has not yet retreated, he will quickly send troops to attack, then Xuzhou has hope, the opportunity is not lost, the lord must act immediately!" ”

"Huh?"

Lu Bu was shocked at first after hearing this, and then shook his head: "Gongtai's words are wrong, if I lead my troops to the north and run for a long time, the soldiers will be tired, Lu Zhuo has always been treacherous, if he deliberately lays a trap to wait for work, then our army is in danger; It is better to stick to the city in Xuzhou, after Lu Zhuo destroys Yuan Shao, he will not dare to stop for a moment and return to Xuzhou immediately. ”

Chen Gong shook his head, "General, don't hesitate, at this time, Lu Zhuo has no intention of caring about him, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, a little hesitation, the fighter plane is fleeting, and it is too late to regret it." ”

Chen Gong was bitter and persuaded repeatedly, Lu Bu insisted on not listening, Chen Gong sighed helplessly, flicked the sleeves of his robe, and walked out of the handsome tent angrily.

Out of the big tent, Chen Gong looked up to the sky and sighed: "Lu Bu doesn't listen to my good words and persuasion, the catastrophe is not far away!" ”

After Guo Jia got the news of Qingzhou, he saw that Lu Bu was slow to move north, and he also sighed, "It's a pity, it's a pity, Lu Bu prides himself on being a heroic man who is difficult to defeat in the world, but he doesn't know the art of war, he doesn't know strategy, he is reckless, he doesn't accept good advice, and his death is not far away!" ”

Yu Ban couldn't help but clench his fists, took a step forward, and said, "Lord Sacrificial Wine, it's better for me to take a group of men and horses to kill Mount Tai, Lu Zhuo will definitely not be guarded." ”

Guo Jia smiled indifferently, "Wen Ze, is it possible that you have forgotten that this time, we are not going to fight to the death with Lu Zhuo, the time is not yet, not to mention, even if we let you take these 30,000 soldiers and horses away, you will not want to destroy Lu Zhuo!" ”

Guo Jiayun is light and light, since the occupation of Pengcheng, has been a cold observer of the situation on all sides, even if Kuai Yue led the troops to occupy Huainan, his face did not have the slightest fluctuation, Yu Ban was envious, and said in his heart: The huge Huainan fell into the hands of Liu Biao in vain.

However, only two days later, Sun Jian suddenly sent troops to Lingling County, and captured Lingling without blood, and now Zhou Yu and Sun Ce are leading the troops to storm Guiyang, Sun Jian's actions caught Liu Biao off guard, and even vomited blood in anger and almost died.

The princes of all parties appeared on the stage, first Yuan Shao chased and intercepted Lu Zhuo, and then Lu Zhuo staged a magical reversal;

Liu Bei's soldiers captured five cities in Shanyang without blood, completely cutting off Lu Bu's retreat;

Kuai Yue Huang Zhong and others swept the wind and clouds, and collected Huainan;

Jiangdong Tiger Sun Jian, suddenly sent troops to make Liu Biao anxious and uncomfortable.

These, Guo Jia doesn't care, this chess game, the more chaotic, the happier he will be, no matter what, Cao Cao's side is not the slightest damage, but many princes are staggered, all of them are mired in the quagmire, except for Guo Jia, everyone else, no one wants to easily retreat.

Lu Bu, if you retreat? Where to retreat? The hometown was all served by Liu Bei.

If Liu Biao quits his army, the two counties of Lingling and Guiyang will fall into the hands of Sun Jian.

Sun Jian has such a great opportunity, will he stop there?

Even if Lu Zhuo completely annihilated Yuan Shao's men and horses, Xuzhou was in chaos, and Huainan was taken away, can he give up?

Yuan Shao is the only one who can't help himself, even if he wants to retreat, he doesn't count!

Only Guo Jia, come when he wants, leave when he wants, come gently, go quietly, wave his sleeves, and don't take away a cloud.

So, what are the benefits to Cao Cao by doing so?

The benefits are too great, after this battle, even if Yuan Shao does not die, it is also a great loss of vitality, how much better can Lu Zhuo be, these two Cao Cao's life rivals, all suffered heavy losses, for Cao Cao, what could be more exciting.

Secondly, when Cao Cao left Yanzhou, Yanzhou was surrounded by wolves, which was a desperate situation, but when Cao Cao returned to Yanzhou again, he would become the new overlord.

Guo Jia's clever chess hand made Cao Cao's situation bright and desperate!

"Report ......"

Happy events followed, Tongguan sent good news, and Jia Xu persuaded Zhang Xiu to defect to Cao Cao.

"Hehe..."

Guo Jia nodded his head, and his mouth hooked a shallow arc, "Jia Wenhe, you old fox, you are really acting unexpectedly." ”

Zhang Xiu also didn't understand it very much, he had just killed Cao Ang, Cao Anmin and Dian Wei not long ago, Cao Cao hated him to the core, but Jia Xu persuaded him to surrender to Cao Cao.

Jia Xu's reason is very simple, at this time Cao Cao is in a stalemate with Ma Chao, if Zhang Xiu surrenders, it will undoubtedly make Cao Cao like a tiger, and he will definitely be able to defeat Ma Chao in one battle, and Cao Cao will sincerely accept Zhang Xiu regardless of his previous suspicions.

Zhang Xiu has always had no opinions, not to mention, even if he doesn't surrender, Cao Cao can't spare him when he turns back, after some tangled and painful thoughts, Zhang Xiu finally surrendered to Cao Cao.

With Zhang Xiu's help, for Cao Cao, the situation suddenly changed dramatically, and against Ma Chao, he could also launch a counterattack with confidence.
