Chapter Ninety-Three: Defeated Kuang Ting and Retreated to Jiujiang

Yuan Shuqin led an army of 150,000 to Kuangting, and he thought: "This time, Cao Apu must be left in Kuangting, this eunuch and slave mongrel dares to contact the servants of the Yuan family to oppose me." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info As long as Cao Cao is destroyed, my army will go out of Changhuan, and an army will sweep through Yanzhou from Kuangting, and then see who dares to fight with me." ”

In order to ensure that Cao Cao would stay in Kuangting, Yuan Shu ordered Chen Ji to be the vanguard and led 50,000 elites to travel lightly. He led 100,000 for the Chinese army, and then responded.

At this time, Cao Cao was facing a great crisis.

There were 50,000 defenders in Kuangting, of which 20,000 were arranged in the city by Liu Shen, and 30,000 remained outside the city, forming a horn trend, which was beyond reproach. However, because Cao Cao came too secretively, Liu Shenzhi was negligent in governing the army, allowing Cao Ren's sneak attack to succeed. The loss was nearly 10,000, plus some soldiers who took the opportunity to flee, and when Liu Shen collected his army and entered the city, Cao Ren stalked and harassed again, and went to 10,000 troops and thousands of people.

Despite this, there are still nearly 30,000 people. Kuangting City is not big, and tens of thousands of people were accepted at once, and it became very difficult to eat, drink, and Lazar. Food is also tight. After two days of fierce fighting, morale was very low.

At this time, the pioneer Chen Ji caught up and let the defenders in the city see hope, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

Cao Cao was forced to retreat to the camp and hold on. Fortunately, there is preparation in advance. In the face of waves of attacks, Cao Cao still felt a lot of pressure. Just after repelling another wave of attacks, Cao Cao came to the barracks to comfort the soldiers and greet the wounded soldiers. The soldiers were very moved, and they had the heart to fight for the king.

In less than an hour, another attack came.

In order to boost morale, Cao Cao asked his personal guards to fight against Yuan Shu's soldiers on the front line with him.

Cao Jun, who was originally very tired, saw the endless Yuan army surging like a wave, and he had no intention of stopping. I feel hopeless. At this time, seeing Cao Cao coming in person, a wave of confidence surged up, and they all fought bravely and repelled three attacks of Yuan's army in a row.

As night fell, Yuan Jun retreated. Cao Cao was drenched and covered in blood, looking up at the night in the distance, and the lights scattered around the camp, he knew that if the ambush could not repel Yuan Shuzhong's army, this would be the place where he was buried, and perhaps this would be the last night he saw.

He didn't understand how Yuan Shu's Chinese army was so far away from the forward. This Chen Ji fought when he came up, and these soldiers seemed to be desperate.

Of course Cao Cao didn't know, in order to keep him Cao Cao. Yuan Shu promised that whoever could capture Cao Cao would be promoted to three levels for the soldier and the township marquis, and the general would be promoted to two levels for the county marquis, and a thousand catties of gold would be rewarded. He glanced around and saw the sergeant dragging his tired body as he took advantage of the night to repair the camp. He didn't know what the ambush was like now, and he hoped God could help him once. Otherwise, he doesn't know if he will be able to hold on tomorrow, and whether there will be Cao Cao in this world in the future.

The next day, just after dawn, Yuan's army attacked. Chen Ji hoped to break through Cao Cao's camp before Yuan Shu arrived. Cao Cao looked at the soldiers dragging their tired bodies and running in the camp, gritted his teeth, and ordered someone to pass the order, "Those who persist today will be rewarded with five acres of land each, those who have made meritorious contributions will be rewarded heavily, and those who flee will be beheaded on the spot." ”

The news spread throughout the camp, and the soldiers and soldiers of Cao knew that Cao Yanzhou's words counted, and they all became excited, and when they saw Yuan Jun who pounced on them, they were also ruthless, and the whole camp was filled with a murderous atmosphere.

As the saying goes: When two armies fight, the brave wins. Cao Jun was ruthless, and he couldn't care about it, so he piled up his comrades around him to form a city wall. The archers lay on the walls, and the pikemen remained in the gaps in the corners, and tens of thousands of people were in the scuffle, and one person was too small. Yuan Jun fell in one row, and the other row climbed up, I don't know how long it took. At this time, it is not an exaggeration to describe Kuang Ting as a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

When the knife and gun are broken, they grasp it with their hands and bite it with their mouths. In short, these soldiers are crazy, and there is only one thought in their hearts, to kill each other.

Seeing that Yuan's army was about to be killed, just when Cao Cao was anxious, Chen Ji's rear army was in turmoil, and Yuan Shu's army retreated. A big banner with the word 'Cao' appeared in the eyes. It was Cao Ren's light cavalry that rushed back.

Cao Cao was also a decisive person, and immediately jumped out of the camp and chased Chen Ji urgently.

Chen Jisuo led tens of thousands of troops who had been on the road for a few days, but as soon as they arrived, they participated in the attack on Cao, and they were already physically and mentally exhausted. At this time, the army was in disarray, and the army immediately split up and fled.

Most of the Yuan Jun were from Nanyang, and this Kuangting was not far from Nanyang, so they fled home one after another. Some of them couldn't escape, so they simply threw away their weapons and fell to the ground with their heads in their hands.

In response to this situation, Cao Jun ignored Cao Cao's orders, and only pursued the group of sergeants who were still fleeing.

It turned out that when the army led by Yuan Shu passed through a dangerous place, the strategist of the army reminded Yuan Shu to be careful of the ambush, and Yuan Shu laughed and said: "How many soldiers can Cao Apu have?" Even if there is an ambush, it is no match for my 100,000-strong army, and at this time, I am afraid that Cao Agui is thinking about how to escape back to Yanzhou. ”

The accompanying general also burst into laughter.

However, it was really accurate for this strategist, and Xiahoudun and Cao Ren were ambushed here. Just as they could laugh, a golden drum exploded like spring thunder. The soldiers on both sides jumped up like a tide and rushed towards Yuan's army in an instant. Yuan Shu was caught off guard, and the entire army was cut into several pieces. The soldiers do not know the soldiers, and the soldiers do not know the generals. Yuan Jun turned in a daze, not knowing how many soldiers Cao Cao had come.

After a short time, the soldiers dispersed, and Yuan Shu saw that the situation was not good, and retreated to Yongqiu under the protection of several main generals and personal guards. After Xiahoudun defeated Yuan with the cooperation of Cao Ren, regardless of the tail, Yuan Shu had just arrived in Yongqiu, Cao Cao's army surrounded him again, Yuan Shu was frightened, and fled to Xiangyi in a hurry, Cao Jun rushed to Xiangyi again, Yuan Shu hurriedly abandoned Xiangyi and fled to Ningling. Ningling Chengjian, Yuan Shu thought he could rest for a while. Who knew that Cao's army still caught up and broke the embankment to irrigate the city. Yuan Shu had no choice but to abandon Ningling and go straight to Jiujiang.

Cao Cao won a complete victory, knowing that although Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu turned against each other, it was not easy to kill them all, and the Yuan family still wanted face, so he would accept it when he saw it.

Yangzhou Assassin Chen Wen refused Yuan Shu to enter the city, Yuan Shu was angry and sent someone to kill Chen Wen, and took the post of Yangzhou Assassin Shi himself.

After this battle, Cao Cao defeated the strong with the weak, and once again became famous in Yan, Yu and Yang.

However, apart from getting tens of thousands of prisoners, he didn't dare to take anything else.

At this time, Cao Cao looked at the large piece of land under his feet and was reluctant.

Cheng Yu said: "Don't be sorry for the lord, this Yuzhou is the hometown of the Yuan family, and all counties and counties are controlled by the former officials of the Yuan family. Now Yuan Shao has millions of soldiers, and the lord can't compete with him. ”

Cao Cao retracted his gaze and raised his hand: "Go!" Back to Yanzhou. After this battle, Yuan Shu was no longer able to invade Yanzhou. ”

Since Liu Shi came to Shang to exterminate the bandits, and took great luck to kill the kingdom, and after the two merits were added to the title of Lantian Township, he had a good life. It's just that Emperor Ling's sudden collapse, the changes in the court made him overwhelmed, and it is not an exaggeration to even be stunned. After all, the place where he is only a poor place, except for some commercial details he arranged to come back and report some news, the others have little impact on him, and he can't do anything.

Originally, he thought that he would be able to transfer out of this place in a few years, the death of the Spirit Emperor, he knew that this hope would be postponed, but it was only postponed.

Immediately after the general He Jin was killed, Dong Table entered Beijing, and the emperor was abolished and a new monarch was established. Such an unpredictable situation made his jaw drop in shock.

However, the first emperor once said to him: "Only the middle son can inherit his career, and the prince is too cowardly to be useful." ”

Therefore, he did not feel anything bad about changing the emperor.

However, the Kwantung states, counties, and Taishou formed a coalition to form an alliance against Dong, which made him feel that this day and the day of the Han Dynasty were about to change.

When the troubled times came, he didn't know where to go, but he was not prepared at all. He knew that the great man would not be calm for many years to come.

What made him breathe a long sigh of relief was that God had arranged for him to be far away from the chaotic place, and he still had time to think and prepare.

He instructed Su Shuang not to build the Hou Mansion too big for the time being, and to repair the embankment and canal first, and repair it firmly. In the valley, another set of courtyards was set up, and the mountain road from the valley to the Qinling Mountains was built. Gather grain and grass in the valley, and withdraw to the mountains when necessary.

Subsequently, he personally walked along the mountain path, crossed the Qinling Mountains and went down to the Tangyu Valley, and walked to the Hou Mansion, which was relieved.

Even so, Liu Shi still found Su Shuang and asked, "Can the Hou Mansion recruit more guards?" ”

Su Shuangdao: "There are now thousands of people, which is the maximum that the Hou Mansion can bear at present." All the money earned in the past few years has been used to build a canal weir and build a new Hou Mansion. ”

Liu Shi was silent for a while and said: "Money can be earned, but if people are gone, there will be no more." In this troubled world, human life splashes like a dog. Now Jizhou, and even the entire Kanto region, are in the midst of war. It's a pity that my father is reluctant to leave Zhuo County. I can't give you great wealth and riches, but I want to keep you safe as much as possible. When there is a surplus of financial resources, try to increase the strength of the guards. I don't think this Chang'an is necessarily peaceful, if necessary, give up the Hou Mansion, flee from the valley to Shangluo, don't be hurt just to defend an empty Hou Mansion, as long as you are there, even if my Hou Mansion is destroyed, sooner or later it can be built again. ”

Liu Shi's words, Su Shuang was grateful.

Liu Shi continued: "You are now the foreign affairs housekeeper of my Hou Mansion, and you often interact with people, so you can't do without words. I want to give you a word, I don't know if it's appropriate, would you like to?. ”

Su Shuang hurriedly said: "The word "given by the Hou Ye" is very suitable, willing, willing. ”

Liu Shidao: "In this way, you are in charge of goods and trade, and when you are mainly harmonious, I will give you "Zihe", what do you think?" ”

Su Shuang said gratefully: "The 'Zihe' given by Master Hou is already tailor-made for Shuang, so it naturally sounds good." ”

Liu Shi smiled and said, "Call you Zihe in the future!" Su Shuang hurriedly responded: "Hey! The two laughed.
