Three hundred and thirty-seven marches
Tian Feng is a loyal minister, there is no doubt about this. For the sake of Yuan Shao's great cause, he even did not hesitate to admonish him many times. Even if you are locked up in prison, even if you are about to die, you don't forget to admonish. If it is replaced by Liu Zhang, he will definitely tell him that attitude is very important. After all, this is a loyal person, a person worthy of training, and if he is a person who betrays him if he disagrees, Liu Zhang will not say anything.
Tian Feng looked at Yuan Shao expectantly, but Yuan Shao began to walk left and right, thinking. For a long time, Yuan Shao seemed to think that what Tian Feng said was right, if this was really the case, wouldn't he be going to be tricked again? Immediately said: "You immediately send an order to Wen Heng and Bujun to let them hold on." After speaking, Yuan Shao felt that it was better to be stable, and he was a little reckless just now.
Tian Feng was overjoyed to do this, but Liu Bei's heart was cold. is so capricious, and the words he said were casually taken back, how could this defeat Cao Cao? In addition, if Yuan Shao does not attack, he will not be able to gather troops and horses, which is also unfavorable to himself.
In the back garden, Yuan Shao sighed: "Some people persuaded me to fight, and some people advised me not to fight." What do you think is good when you stay out of the situation? In the end, Yuan Shao still asked Liu Bei, and it seemed that this way he could untie the knot.
Liu Bei said politely: "Thanks to Duke Yuan's kindness, I shouldn't have said much about the guest living tent......"
"Why should Xuande be too humble? Just say it. ”
Liu Bei saluted and said: "Since Yuan Gong released the list of thieves, the people in the world are all looking forward to it, looking forward to Yuan Gong being able to clear the monarch's side and help the Han family." But in the past six months, although Yuan Gong has an advantage, there has never been a war. Such labor is fruitless, and money and food are wasted. In the long run, it will inevitably be beneficial to Cao Cao, but not to Yuan Gong. After all, Liu Bei still couldn't hold back his desires......
"Xuande, just say it."
"Yuan Gong and Cao Cao want to compare, they have an advantage in all aspects, if Yuan Gong retreats without a fight and can't hold out, then Cao Cao is equivalent to a big victory." Liu Bei looked at Yuan Shao and stared back at himself and said: "He will say when the time comes, he will lead the king to defeat the traitor, so how will the people of the world, especially the princes of the world, reverie between Yuan Gong and Cao Cao?" To whom will they fall then? For example, Liu Zhang, seeing Cao Jun's successive victories, didn't he fall to Cao Cao, instead of watching like now? Seeing Yuan Shao's solemn eyes, Liu Bei said again: "The imperial court is in the hands of Cao Cao, how to say it, how to do it, isn't it at the mercy of Cao Cao?" I want to tell you bluntly that if I have half of the soldiers and horses of the Ming Dynasty, I will definitely spread all over the world and march to Xuchang. Speaking of this, Liu Bei also made envious eyes.
Yuan Shao suddenly felt that he had been misled again, and couldn't help but say: "Tian Feng misunderstood me, I should march immediately, instead of giving Cao Cao a chance." At this moment, Yuan Shao suddenly felt that he was too inkblotted again.
Liu Bei hurriedly saluted and said: "Duke Ming can't listen to all the words of the subordinates, please also make a decision after consulting with all the ministers." Liu Bei didn't want to get involved in any scandals, otherwise his reputation would ......
Watching Yuan Shao leave in a huff, Liu Bei suddenly felt that the opportunity had come so unexpectedly. If Yuan Shao sent troops so recklessly, he would definitely have a chance. Xu Shu said to Liu Bei that as long as Yuan Shao hurriedly marched into the army, even if the big victory was only partial, once he entered the territory of Xuchang, he would definitely be defeated.
Outside the city, Xu You and Tian Feng walked together, looking at Tian Feng with a stinky face, Xu You said happily: "Brother Yuan Hao, you always persuade the lord to rest and recuperate, don't you think that Cao Jun is too strong, and you have nothing to resist?" Looking at Tian Feng, Xu You became angry, I really don't know where he came from?
Tian Feng put his hands behind his back and said slowly: "Hmph, such a blind march will undoubtedly fail, Xu You, haven't you forgotten the responsibility of the lord?" Don't you forget the pain of the scar? Glancing at Xu You, Tian Feng slowly walked forward.
Xu You said with a smile: "What if you are beaten bluntly? What's more, Brother Tai likes to give advice more than me, are you sure you won't have such a day? Seeing Tian Fengti mention this kind of thing, Xu You wanted to slap him.
Tian Feng snorted coldly: "So what? Even if I, Tian Feng, admonish to death, I will inevitably admonish. After saying that, Tian Feng left angrily, but at this time, a herald said: "The order for the main attack has been issued, and General Yan Liangwen Chou is ordered to march to Xuchang." ”
After Tian Feng heard this, he was stunned for a long time, looking at Xu Yu who was smiling beside him, Tian Feng flicked his sleeves and hurriedly walked towards the main hall. As soon as he entered the main hall, he heard Yuan Shao saying: "Within five days, the whole army will attack Liyang, and it will be killed by mistake." ”
As soon as the words fell, Tian Feng rushed in from outside: "Lord, ......" The voice sounded, and Yuan Shao saw that it was Tian Feng, and immediately turned his head and didn't want to see Tian Feng. Originally, his tone of voice was unpleasant, but now that he came eagerly, he must be questioning again, which made Yuan Shao very annoyed.
Yuan Shao said in a deep voice: "Yuan Hao, I have ordered the march, and you are not allowed to talk nonsense, cholera military heart." ”
After hearing this, Tian Feng hurriedly knelt down and said: "Lord Rong Chen will say again, you must not be in a hurry to march into the Cao army, but you must be steady step by step and move forward carefully." Moreover, Yan Liang is brave and unscrupulous, so he can't be a commander. Tian Feng was afraid that Yuan Shao's army would march directly, and it would inevitably be a plan at that time.
Yuan Shao was really angry when he heard this, and got up directly and said: "Alarmist, disturb the morale of the army, and press into prison." With a wave of his hand, he directly let Tian Feng take it left and right.
Listening to a series of third thoughts, Yuan Shao couldn't help but get angry. Then he went back to the house directly, but he didn't want to say anything. Xu You, who was outside the door, looked at Tian Feng who was pulled out, and was very happy in his heart: "Brother Yuan Hao, you also have today?" A series of laughter, Xu You walked away, today is a good day.
The army was stationed in Liyang, and Liu Yan, who was originally stationed in Liyang, had withdrawn to Baima, and at this moment he was flying to pass the message. The white horse is very important and must not be observed. If this place is lost, I'm afraid Yuan Shao will be able to drive straight in, and it will be really bad at that time. But Yuan Shao ordered Wen Chou to attack Yanjin, and Cao Cao had to send troops under the urgency of the two parties.
Originally, Liu Zhang's news made Cao Cao divert his attention slightly. But just like that, the situation on the entire battlefield seemed to be passive all of a sudden, and when he looked back, Cao Cao had to move his troops in advance.
"If Wen Ruo goes out to Xuchang this time, I will hand it over to you......" Cao Cao stood at the gate of the city, pulling Xun Yu and solemnly explained.
Xun Yu saluted and said: "Don't worry, Xuchang will be fine." On this expedition, Cao Cao brought his nephew Xun You as a military advisor, and the rest of the generals followed. Xu Du is such an important place, and Cao Cao is not at ease when it is handed over to others.
As the army set out, hundreds of thousands of troops slowly marched forward. The sound of trumpets and drums was heard all the way. The battle ahead was urgent, and Cao Cao had to march quickly. In a hurry overnight, Cao Cao hurried to the white horse. On the way, Xun You suggested: "Yanjin sent infantry to pretend to cross the river, but in fact to relieve the siege of Baima." Since then, there has been a strategic trend of attacking the east and the west, which makes Yuan's army tired.
But after arriving at Baima, Cao Ren immediately came to report: "Yan Liang is stationed outside the army, and our army has been defeated one after another, and Yan Liang has killed the vanguard of our army many times. Cao Ren watched the groups of defeated soldiers enter the barracks, and he really couldn't imagine that Yan Liang was so brave.
Cao Cao laughed and said, "I didn't expect that Yan Liang to be so brave that he actually beheaded several of my generals." Speaking of which, Cao Cao thought of the time when he fought against Huaxiong, then Yuan Shao once said that he had a general, Yan Liangwen, and was ugly?
Xun You on the side said: "The generals of our army have asked for battle, what is the will of the lord?" "To free the siege of the White Horse, you have to be quick.
"Don't be in a hurry to let them rest, at the moment, our army has been defeated one after another, and the edge has been slightly setback, but it is not suitable to march. The next battle must be won, but it cannot be lost. Cao Cao thought as he walked, if Yan Liang's martial arts were quite successful, he couldn't underestimate the enemy. For a while, Cao Cao had a feeling of lack of generals. Xu Huang, Zang Ba and others who were supposed to be obtained by Cao Cao did not get all of them, plus Lujiang and Jiujiang that were accidentally obtained, but Cao Cao lacked generals.
Xun You thought for a while and said, "The lord has one person who can definitely kill Yan Liang. ”
Cao Cao glanced at Xun Yu and said, "You mean Guan Yu, right?" ”
Xun You nodded and said, "That's right, Guan Yu warms wine and kills Huaxiong, and he is not weaker than Lu Bu." If he came forward to kill Yan Liang, it would be excellent for the lord. ”
"Huh? Fabulous? Why? "Cao Cao is also worried that Guan Yu will have an excuse to leave him after making military achievements, why is it very good?
Xun You said: "Lord, where is Liu Bei at the moment?" It must be at Yuan Shao's. If Guan Yu killed Yan Liang, would Yuan Shao kill Liu Bei in anger? Killing Liu Bei will inevitably attract hatred towards Guan Yu, won't Guan Yu be used by the lord at that time? As Xun You's words fell, Cao Cao stopped. yes, it's killing two birds with one stone.
Cao Cao immediately said: "Zixiao (Cao Ren) summoned Guan Yu overnight, his red rabbit horse is fast, let him arrive at noon, I will set up a wine to wait." Seeing Cao Ren go down to arrange, Cao Cao was very happy in his heart. This time Liu Bei is going to be finished, and Guan Yu is also his own.
I'm afraid that at this time, Yan Liang doesn't know that he has arrived at the White Horse, and when he suddenly kills in the decisive battle tomorrow, he will definitely be able to kill Yan Liang, and Liu Bei still has his life at that time? After winning the battle and getting a fierce general, I'm afraid I can wake up laughing when I sleep, right? This siege of White Horse was the beginning of Yuan Shao's defeat.
The next day, the two armies faced each other, and Yan Liang came directly to the front of the battle to beat the drum and challenge, standing in front of the battle with one person and one horse, and his arrogant posture was very similar to Lu Bu. This makes Cao Cao look very interesting, if Liu Zhang is here at this time, I am afraid that he will directly order Huang Zhong to shoot this old boy with an arrow, this kind of behavior of dying before the battle, Liu Zhang likes it the most. You can only challenge others by yourself, and you can't be provoked by others...... The sound of drums spread, and the soldiers of the opposing side roared, which was enough to prove the arrogance of the enemy.
