Chapter 201: Leaning towards Tiger Mountain
That head was none other than Li Feng who stayed in Xi'e City!
Jin Shang was frightened in his heart, looked up, and saw that above the city, one person stood first, it was Cao Cao, and Cheng Yu and Yu Ban were standing on both sides. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Cao Cao saw Jin Shang's embarrassed appearance and laughed: "Jin Thorn Shi, don't come unharmed?" I have been taking the city of West Hubei for a long time. ”
It turned out that when Jin Shang and Liang Gang were surrounded by Cao Cao's ambush, Cao Cao personally led the troops and went straight to the city of Western Hubei with Yu Ban.
Then, Cheng Yu used a trick to get Li Feng out of the city, and Yu Ban killed him, and then captured the city of Western Hubei.
The 20,000 soldiers in the city, when they saw that they had broken the commander, scattered in a hurry, and all fled.
Jin Shang felt remorse in his heart at this time, 50,000 horses, in the blink of an eye, only a few hundred were left to ride by his side, and the rest either died or fled, it was simply a complete defeat.
"Cao Cao, I swear to kill you!" Jin Shang roared angrily, but it sounded like he was strong on the outside and weak in the middle.
At this moment, the gate of the city of Xi'e City opened, and Yu Ban led the troops out to take Jin Shang.
Jin Shang was shocked, he had long forgotten the oath he had just made, and quickly turned his horse's head and fled.
"General, the gentleman takes revenge, it's not too late for ten years, let's go back to Nanyang for the time being." The sergeant next to him said.
Jin Shang nodded hurriedly and said, "That's right, when he waits, I will definitely make a comeback and kill Cao Cao!" ”
Yu Ban chased and killed, and most of the more than 100 sergeants died, but Jin Shang also escaped and defected to Nanyang in the starry night.
In fact, some deserters had already fled back to Nanyang and informed Yuan Shu of Jin Shang's defeat, and Yuan Shu was greatly annoyed.
Jin Shang came to see Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu was furious, and said: "The person who defeated the army, he still has the face to come back to see me, drag him out, and behead him!" ”
"General, spare your life!" Jin Shang begged for mercy, "I just fell for Cao Cao's tricks by mistake, and I hope the general will see it." ”
The chief bookkeeper Yan Xiang snorted coldly and said: "Lord, Jin Shang is arrogant, causing our army to lose troops and generals, and we must not spare it!" ”
Yuan Shu nodded and said, "Master Yan's book is reasonable, drag it out, cut it!" ”
The two sergeants came to Jin Shang's side, and they couldn't help but say, they divided the two sides of the shelf, dragged them out, and in a few moments, a human head was picked up.
Poor Jin Shang escaped Cao Cao's pursuit, but was beheaded by Yuan Shu again.
Yuan Shu waved his hand, motioned for the sergeant to take the head down, and asked with a sad face: "Now that Cao Cao has entered the city of Western Hubei, who can resist?" ”
After a long while, there was still no one to answer, Yuan Shu slapped a few cases, and said angrily: "Isn't there anyone who can share the worries with General Ben?" ”
Yan Xiang sighed lightly, stepped forward and said, "Lord, there is a word below, I don't know if I should say it or not?" ”
"Master Yan's book, though." Yuan Shu hurriedly said.
Yan Xiang bowed and said: "Now that our army has been newly defeated, not only has it lost 50,000 elite soldiers, but also lost two generals, and its morale is low. ”
Yuan Shu frowned, and said unhappily: "Do you want me to go to Cao Cao to ask for surrender?" ”
"Definitely." Yan Xiang said, "Please listen to the lord and finish his words." ”
Yuan Shu endured patience and said, "Say." ”
Yan Xiang continued: "Now that Cao Cao has led the army to come, Liu Biao of Jingzhou in the south has a lot of complaints because the lord occupies Nanyang, if it is to unite with Cao Cao, we will stand in the land. ”
"At this time, I know that how to retreat Cao Bing is a top priority!" Yuan Shu was a little impatient.
Yan Xiang sighed again and said: "Now that our army has lost the opportunity, I am afraid that it will be difficult to retreat from Cao Cao, so we can only temporarily avoid the edge and abandon Nanyang." ”
"What? Abandon Nanyang! Yuan Shu was shocked, and didn't seem to think of this.
Yan Xiang nodded and said, "Yes, only by giving up Nanyang can we preserve our strength." ”
Yuan Shu suppressed the anger in his heart and asked, "If I abandon Nanyang, where will I go?" ”
"Yangzhou, Shouchun!" Yan Xiang said, "In the land of Huaiyang, the people of Wufu are abundant, you can station troops, and when your vitality recovers, you can attack Cao Cao in the north, and you can thwart Liu Biao in the south, which is the plan of the top." ”
Yuan Shu listened to Yan Xiang's words, and couldn't help but think in his heart, and after a while, he asked, "Do the rest have any other clever plans?" ”
Still no one answered, Yuan Shu said a little dejectedly: "If you have no opinion, then do what Master Yan said." ”
Yan Xiang said again: "If you want to leave this place, after Cao Cao knows about it, he will definitely send someone to chase him, and the lord can set up an ambush, and he will definitely be able to break Cao's soldiers." ”
When Yuan Shu heard this, he regained some balance, nodded and said, "Lord Yan's words are very much in line with my wishes, where are Ji Ling and Zhang Xun?" ”
"The last general!"
After Ji Ling and Zhang Xun listened to the order, they stepped out of the squad and waited for Yuan Shu to give orders.
Yuan Shu looked at the two of them and said, "The two generals, each leading 10,000 soldiers and horses, ambushed Cao Cao's pursuers at the retreat point!" ”
"Order!"
The two of them took the order and left, and the electric men and horses were ready to prepare.
"Inform General Yang Feng, escort the Son of Heaven, and move Shouchun!" Yuan Shu then commanded again.
Subsequently, Yuan Shu packed up the grain, grass and money in Nanyang City, and in desperation, he was rushed to Shouchun by Cao **.
At this time, Cao Cao was resting in the city of Western Hubei, and the scouts in the army informed Cao Cao of the news that Yuan Shu had abandoned Nanyang.
Cao Cao immediately raised his civil and military forces to discuss the matter.
"Lord, you must not let Yuan Shu escape, I am willing to lead 10,000 light cavalry to pursue." Xiahoudun said.
When Mao Jue heard this, he said: "No, Yuan Shu is defeated and left, he will leave an ambush for me, and the lord must not move lightly." ”
Cheng Yu also nodded and said: "The words of filial piety are very good, since I have driven Yuan Shu out of Nanyang, I can explain to Zhao Qian." ”
Cao Cao thought about it, but shook his head and said, "Since Yuan Shu has been defeated, why not take the opportunity to take his life?" I am doing this, not Zhao Qian. ”
Mao Jue still wanted to persuade again, Cao Cao waved his hand and said: "Filial piety doesn't need to be said again, I will chase Yuan Shu to show righteousness in the world." ”
"I want to be a pioneer!" Xiahoudun said again.
Cao Cao nodded and said, "Okay, Yuan Rang and my relatives led an army of 10,000 to pursue Yuan Shu, and Miaocai and Zixiao led 10,000 soldiers to respond." ”
Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ren also hugged their fists to receive the order.
Cao Cao laughed and said, "Knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, I prefer to go to the tiger mountains!" The others led the army into Nanyang, and Zhongde and Xiaoxian put up a list to calm the people, and they were not allowed to disturb the people; Yuan Rang, hunt down Yuan Shu with me! ”
Everyone received the order, each according to his own share, and took over Nanyang City.
Besides, Ji Ling and Zhang Xun each led 10,000 soldiers, ambushed on the road, Zhang Xun said to Ji Ling: "General Ji, the two of us should stagger the ambush before and after, if there are chasing soldiers, General Ji will let them go, and after I send troops to fight, General Ji will attack his rear army, and he will be able to break it!" ”
After Ji Ling heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed in his heart, and said: "General Zhang is really both civil and military, so do it!" ”
So, the two divided their troops to ambush and waited for Cao Cao's pursuers to come.
