Wen Yang shouted, like thunder. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
With this sound of breaking and drinking, the tiger's head chisel golden spear (the long weapon is a gun, and the short weapon is a steel whip) pierced the sky, making a sharp sound of breaking the air.
Xia Houjie was stunned by Wen Yang's voice, and the iron gun in his hand couldn't help shaking, and Wen Yang's tiger head chiseled golden gun had already pierced Xia Houjie's throat.
Wen Yang roared again and threw Xiahou Jie's corpse into the Cao army's array.
Seeing that Wen Yang was so brave, Cao Bing fled one after another, not daring to fight.
In this way, Cao Cao's four men and horses finally escaped from the siege of the Wei army after some fighting, and they scattered and fled in all directions.
Wei Yan led the army to chase and kill in the rear, and Cao Cao had to flee in the direction of Xudu.
Where is the elite of Wei Yan's cavalry under Cao Cao, it is about to be caught up by Wei Yan's army.
"It's going to kill me!" Cao Cao pulled out the Heavenly Sword and pretended to kill himself with a horizontal sword.
A person suddenly flashed in front of him: "Lord, don't worry too much, go and persuade Wei Yan to withdraw his troops." ”
Cao Cao was shocked: "Wen Ruo, you are not in Xudu, how did you come here?" ”
The one who came was Cao Cao's mastermind Xun Yu Xun Wenruo.
Xun Yu was born in Yingchuan Xun, after Xunzi. His grandfather, Xun Shu, was well-known in the world and was known as the Divine Monarch. Xun Shu has eight sons, known as the Eight Dragons. Xun Yu's father Xun Qi once served as the minister of Jinan, and his uncle Xun Shuang served as Sikong. Xun Yu was jealous of the eunuchs, so he asked Xun Yu to marry the daughter of Tang Heng, a regular servant, because Xun Yu was famous when he was young, so he could avoid the ridicule of others. Later, He Hao, a famous man in Nanyang, was surprised when he saw Xun Yu and said: "This is Wang Zuozhi's talent!" ”
In the first year of the Yonghan Dynasty, he was promoted to filial piety and integrity, and was appointed to guard the palace order, and was in charge of the emperor's pen, ink, paper and other items. In September, Dong Zhuo abolished the young emperor Liu Wei and established the emperor Liu Xie. Xun Yu abandoned the official and returned to his hometown, and said to his father: "Yingchuan is the land of four wars, if the world changes, it will often be invaded, and you should leave early, not for a long time." "But the villagers are nostalgic for their homeland and are reluctant to leave. At that time, Han Fu of Mutong County in Jizhou sent someone to pick up Xun Yu, but no one accompanied him, so Xun Yu had to move his clan to Jizhou for refuge alone. Later, Dong Zhuo sent Li Dao and others out of the Kanto, captured all over the country, and returned to Yingchuan and Chen, and most of the people in Xunyu Township died in the war.
After arriving in Jizhou, Jizhou has been obtained by Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao saw Xun Yu coming and treated him as a guest. Xun Yu's younger brother Xun Chen, the same county Xin Ping and Guo Tu were all under Yuan Shao, but Xun Yu thought that Yuan Shao could not achieve great things in the end.
In the second year of the first peace, Xun Yu left Yuan Shao and voted for Cao Cao, Cao Cao saw Xun Yu coming to vote, Dayue, and said: "This is my ovary!" So Xun Yu was appointed as Sima of the other department, and Xun Yu was twenty-nine years old at the time.
In the first year of Xingping, Cao Cao went east to conquer Tao Qian, and Zhang Miao and Chen Gong took the opportunity to oppose Cao in Yanzhou and secretly greeted Lu Bu. When Xun Yu and Shou Zhang ordered Cheng Yu to guard Juancheng, and after Lü Bu arrived, Zhang Miao sent Liu Yi to tell Xun Yu: "General Lü has come to help Cao Envoy Jun attack Taoqian, and he should immediately supply them with armaments and food." Everyone was puzzled, but Xun Yu knew his plan, and immediately ordered the army to strengthen the defense, and urgently summoned the Taishou Xiahou of Dongjun. And all the cities of Yanzhou responded to Zhang Miao and took refuge in Lu Bu's camp. At that time, Cao Cao led a large army to the expedition, and there were very few troops left, and many people colluded with Zhang Miao and Chen Gong. After Xiahoudun arrived, he killed dozens of rebels at night, and the army's heart was at peace.
Yuzhou Assassin Shi Guo Gong was instigated by Lu Bu and led tens of thousands of people to attack, and the army was very afraid. Guo Gong asked to see Xun Yu, Xun Yu was about to go, Xiahoudun and others said: "You are the barrier of a state, if you go, it will definitely be dangerous, you can't go." Xun Yu said: "Guo Gong and Zhang Miao have no dealings with each other, and now they are in a hurry, and the plan must not have been decided; Lobbying him now while he is still undecided, if not to help us, can keep him neutral, and if he doubts first, he will be angry and make up his mind. So he went out of the city to meet Guo Gong, Guo Gong saw that Xun Yu had no fear, thinking that Juancheng was easy to defend and difficult to attack, so he led his troops away. Xun Yu made a plan with Cheng Yu again to protect Fan and Dong'e. Died in all three cities. Soon after, Cao Cao returned to Puyang and defeated Lü Bu.
In the first month of the second year of Xingping, Cao Cao defeated Lü Bu's army, which invaded Dingtao. In May, Cao Cao launched an attack on Xue Lan and Li Feng, the generals of Lü Bu's troops who garrisoned Juye, but Lü Bu personally rescued, but was defeated by Cao Cao and retreated. Cao Cao annihilated the defenders of Juye, beheaded Xue Lan and Li Feng, and took advantage of the victory to enter the Cheng clan.
At this time, Xuzhou Mu Taoqian was dead, and after Cao Cao learned about it, he planned to take the opportunity to seize Xuzhou and return to the army to eliminate Lü Bu. Xun Yu dissuaded, and Cao Cao adopted Xun Yu's deep-rooted opinion and gave up his attempt to attack Xuzhou. Seize the warplanes, harvest ripe wheat, store grain, and accumulate strength. Soon, Cao Cao defeated Lü Bu, and Lü Bu abandoned the camp overnight and retreated to Xuzhou. Cao Cao took advantage of the victory to capture Dingtao City, and sent troops to recover the counties of Yanzhou, and Yanzhou was pacified. The victory of this battle was of great significance to Cao Cao's future unification of the north and the achievement of great causes, and Xun Yu made great contributions.
In July of the first year of Jian'an, Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty, under the escort of Yang Feng and Dong Cheng, returned to Luoyang from Chang'an. On the issue of whether to welcome the Son of Heaven and build the capital Xu County, there was a dispute within Cao Jun. Most people did not agree to welcome Emperor Xian, on the grounds that Xuzhou had not yet been pacified, and Han Xian and Yang Feng had just welcomed the Son of Heaven to Luoyang and connected Zhang Yang to the north, so they could not control them for the time being. Xun Yu persuaded Cao Cao to welcome the Son of Heaven, Cao Cao thought that Xun Yu's words were reasonable, so he responded to the secret summons of the Anji general Dong Cheng, personally led the army to Luoyang, was appointed as the captain of the school, and welcomed the emperor's relocation of the capital to Xu County. Cao Cao was named a general and the Marquis of Wuping, and Xun Yu was also promoted to the rank of Han servant, keeping the Shangshu order. From then on, Cao Cao Feng was the son of heaven to order the strategic advantage of the princes, and laid the foundation for the smooth implementation of the unification war thereafter.
Xun Yu rarely goes out with the army, but "holds the weight in the middle", although Cao Cao is fighting abroad, but the military affairs are planned by Xun Yu.
Xun Yu formulated a blueprint and military route for Cao Cao's planning to unify the north in terms of strategy, and repeatedly revised Cao Cao's strategic policy and was appreciated by Cao Cao. In terms of politics, Cao Cao recommended a large number of talents such as Zhong Xuan, Xun You, Chen Qun, Du Xi, Xi Zhicai, and Guo Jia.
Xun Yu has made many achievements in planning, plotting, Kuang Bi, and lifting people, and was called "my son's room" by Cao Cao.
As early as when Cao Cao was preparing to unite with Liu Biao to deal with Wei Yan, Xun Yu advised Cao Cao not to deal with Wei Yan, but to deal with Lu Bu when Wei Yan and Liu Biao clashed, but Cao Cao did not listen, and still dealt with Wei Yan with Liu Biao.
Now Cao Cao was a little shameless to see Xun Yu, but he suddenly heard Xun Yu say that he could persuade Wei Yan to withdraw from the army, and was surprised: "Wen Ruo, now that Wei Yan Xiaoer is gaining the upper hand, how can he withdraw from the army?" ”
