Cao Cao was indeed defeated......

Even Yuan Shao didn't expect that this Puyang War, which lasted for nearly a year, . Qｂ⑤、cｏｍ

At the beginning of May, Yuan Shao got the news that due to geographical reasons, the grain and grass that supported Cao Cao's Puyang War mainly came from two places. One is from Yuzhou, through Xingyang, a free trade place set by Cao Cao and Dong, and imported into the Yanzhou battlefield. This batch of grain and grass was transported through merchants to Changyuan (now Changyuan County, Xinxiang, Henan), and then distributed to various passes.

Another source of grain and grass was hoarded in Juyang (now northeast of Heze, Shandong) in Jiyin County through Qingzhou.

Yuan Shao was also very hesitant after learning the news. After dealing with Cao Cao for so long, he knows Cao Cao's personality very well. Cao Cao likes to rob people's grain, and before on the battlefield in Qingzhou, Yuan Shao suffered a big loss on this.

How can a master who likes to rob people of food without a guard?

However, Sima Xinbi, who accompanied the army, said: "The reason why we were able to find out about Cao Cao's grain land was because the grain and grass on his western road were transported through merchants in Xingyang. We managed to buy off the businessman in charge of this in Xingyang, so we got the news. It is said that because it was a merchant transporting grain and grass, Cao Cao's defense on the West Road, that is, in the area of sour jujube, was not very rigorous, if he could ......"

A smart person will never tell the result, but will leave a glimmer of opportunity for the master to play. It's like Tian Feng's uprightness. If you don't know how to turn around, you won't estimate the master's feelings, and you will be unscrupulous when you make suggestions.

There is no doubt that Simbi is a wise man. And Yuan Shao was not stupid, he quickly understood what Xin Bi meant, and couldn't help but smile.

"What does George mean by making a detour to Xingyang and attacking Changyuan?"

Xin Bi hurriedly intervened and bowed and said, "The lord is really smart, and his subordinates haven't said it yet." The main business is already in the chest. ”

Obviously, there was an element of sycophancy in this speech, but Yuan Shao was still very happy. Don't care about Simbina's exaggerated movements.

"My lord, my subordinates have inquired clearly, and the grain department of Juyang directly supplies the Cao army in Puyang. So the defense is relatively tight. But Nagaki is different. As far as his subordinates know, even Juyang's grain and grass also need Changyuan's support. From Xingyang all the way to Changyuan, the guards were relatively lax. Moreover, the escort of grain and grassland was mostly the escort of Xingyang merchants, and Cao Jun's inventory of the caravan was not strict. ”

"Very good, very good...... George this plan, the end is clever! ”

Yuan Shao's face was full of spring breeze and nodded again and again. After a year of hard fighting. Yuan Shao was also a little impatient. In addition, the drought in Jizhou this year is severe, and the grain reserves are already somewhat unavailable. The most important thing is that Yuan Shao has been hollowed out by Dong for this big war.

If the Battle of Puyang could not be ended before the onset of winter, Yuan Shao could only retreat. Simbidi's plan. It's really a relief in the snow. Yuan Shao immediately ordered the general Han Qiong to be the main general. Xinbi was the military commander and borrowed Hanoi. Transferred to Xingyang. It no longer matters what the board of directors wants. It is important to end the war as soon as possible.

Fortunately, Dong did not make excessive demands.

When Yuan Shao's envoy arrived in Chang'an, Chen Gong said: "It is not difficult to borrow the way, but Liang Wang Chitose heard that Yuan Gong had a Tian Feng under him, and he insulted Liang Wang Chitose in public many times. Chitose was very unhappy about this, if it weren't for his friendship with Yuan Gong, he would have hit Yecheng a long time ago...... Now that Yuan Gong wants to borrow the way, he will hand over Natian Yuanhao to us, and let us deal with it whether he lives or dies, otherwise this matter will ...... No need to talk. ”

When the envoy returned to Yuan Shao, he said that he had not seen Dong.

But looking at the way the people of the Chengming Hall gritted their teeth, they must have hated Na Tian Feng to the bones, so they made this request.

Yuan Shao didn't want to see Tian Feng, but he was afraid of the crime of killing a staff member.

Now that Dong wants to take over this hot potato, Yuan Shao will naturally not object. However, he demanded that Dong release Yuan Shang.

Dong has no opinion on this.

At the beginning of June, Yuan Shao dispatched 3,000 halberd soldiers, led by Han Qiong Xinbi, and arrived in Xingyang from Yanjin.

Then he mixed in with the merchants of Xuzhou, who had already bought the land, escorted the grain and grass to Changyuan quietly, and attacked in the middle of the night and burned Changyuan.

Hundreds of thousands of stones of grain and grass in Changyuan were burned to the ground.

The Cao army on the west road was the first to rebel, and the Yuan army took advantage of the situation to recapture Baima and occupy the sour date, and the soldiers pointed directly at Chen Liu.

Lu Su, the commander of the Western Route Army of the Cao Army, had to retreat to Chenliu. As soon as the Western Route Army was defeated, Puyang could not resist the attack launched by Yuan Shaojun's flank. After persisting for more than ten days, he withdrew from Puyang, lost his armor all the way, carried countless grains and grasses, and retreated to the giant field.

And the commander of the Eastern Route Army, Xiahou Chengyu, could not resist the attack of the Yuan army after the loss of Puyang.

After holding out for a few days, the army was defeated, and retreated from Cangting in Dongjun all the way to Dongping Kingdom, with Xuchang (now Dongping Lake, Dongping City, Shandong, that is, Liangshan) as a barrier, and finally stabilized its position and held out.

In this battle, Yuan Shao captured nearly 50,000 horses and horses of Cao's army and captured countless materials.

Puyang was defeated, and Cao Cao relied on the barrier of the great river moat no longer existed. Yuan Shao took advantage of the victory to pursue, and the army rushed straight to Juye, where he confronted Cao Cao.

At this time, it is the end of summer and the beginning of autumn!

The autumn examination in Chang'an is also coming.

This day is a good day for Liu Yan's eldest son to turn two years old.

Liu Bian set up a banquet in the Weiyang Palace and entertained officials of Chang'an. Dong, naturally, is also among the invitees and is in the chief.

Liu Bian, has passed the year of establishment.

Although he is a genius, he has no luxury at all. Two years after ascending the throne, that is, at the beginning of the third year of Taiping, Empress Fang Li.

The queen's background is not very noble.

You are gentle and skillful, and you have a very temperament. But. This mother is the queen of the world and the earth, and her life is not too good. After giving birth to a son at the end of Taiping's third year, he died. But no matter what, the queen finally left Liu Wei with blood and bones, and her name was Liu Tong.

Liu Wei has only lived a normal life for two years, and this kind of change has happened.

The whole person has become more negative, ignoring the government all day long, participating in Buddhism and reciting scriptures in Bailiang Taizhong, basically no longer showing up. Dong every ten days. will enter the palace to talk to Liu Bian, and at this time, Liu Bian will show some smiling faces. Besides. Only when he sees his son Liu Tong, he will be a little happier, and most of the time, he is like an old monk. The ancient well does not wave. Don't even talk much.

Liu Tong was two years old, and although Liu Wei didn't want to do it, the ministers didn't agree.

Thus, the banquet lasted from noon until after dark. Dong was very happy in the banquet and drank happily, so that by the end of the banquet, he was already a little drunk.

Out of the imperial city, Dong pulled the saddle and got on the horse, and walked home......

The night breeze is gentle. A burst of alcohol rushed up, and Dong became a little dazed.

Since he was in Chang'an, Dong didn't bring too many entourages. Except for more than 100 personal guards, there was no one else. Now, the officials of Chang'an. Horse-drawn carriages and the like are no longer ridden. Instead, it was replaced with a new type of thing, that is, an eight-lift sedan chair.

This palanquin. It's still a thing that Dong made up when he retreated into Nanshan.

After the situation in Chang'an stabilized, many people began to like this kind of transportation tool. Moreover, this sedan chair is also divided into three, six, nine and so on.

For example, Liu Bian, who is the Son of Heaven, has a total of one hundred and eight people who carry the sedan chair, named Huangyuan.

The clan and the royal family, carried by sixty-four people, were called Wang Yuan; Three dukes and nine qing, take thirty-two sedan chairs; And so on for the rest.

According to Dong's official position, Wang Yuan should be used. But Dong is used to riding horses, and he always feels uncomfortable sitting in a sedan chair, so most of the time, he still mainly rides horses. On this day, the night breeze was gentle, and the city of Chang'an was filled with a smell of camphor wood, which felt very comfortable.

Dong immediately staggered, looking a little unstable.

And most of the pro-troops guarding have relaxed their vigilance. After all, this Chang'an City is Dong's territory, and it is unlikely that something will happen.

But just when he turned around Zhaomingfang Street, Dong Crotch and his mount suddenly became restless.

Immediately after, more than ten cold lights burst from the rooftops on both sides of the street, and someone shouted: "Dong thief, I want you to pay for my father's life today!" ”

The sword light is cold, and the cold is pressing.

More than a dozen black-clad assassins pounced, and one of them even rushed towards Dong.

The Assassins appear to have been trained. Ten people blocked the way to protect Dong's personal entourage, and there were three people left, apparently the main force to assassinate Dong. In normal times, don't say ten assassins, even if it is twenty or a hundred, they may not be able to help Dong.

But today, Dong is already drunk and groggy.

And in Chang'an City, how could he have thought that someone would dare to assassinate him?

The skills of the three assassins were extremely clever, and their tricks were also very ruthless, and they stabbed directly at Dong's chest.

Fortunately, Dong is drunk, but the war horse under this crotch is extremely spiritual.

Xi Yuyu let out a long hiss, and knocked Dong, who was caught off guard, under the horse. With a flash of sword light, the war horse neighed miserably and fell in a pool of blood. And Dong fell on the cold ground even more, although this fall made his drunkenness subside a little, but the feeling of dizziness still made him unable to react normally.

An assassin, armed with a short spear, stabbed Dong with a snort.

Dong grabbed the short spear and roared loudly, shaking the man away. With two clicks, the other two Assassins were swords.

But at this moment, the assassin who was thrown away suddenly turned over and jumped up, hugging Dong from behind.

"Hurry up, don't worry about me!"

The two assassins stabbed with their swords, and the guards in the distance also came to their senses, shouting that they wanted to come and rescue Dong. However, under the desperate interception of the ten assassins, they could not pass for a while. More than a dozen people were seriously injured and fell in pools of blood.

Dong let out a roar, and the assassin's sword sank into his chest, blood splattered.

The assassin who hugged him was thrown out by Dong Yi, stumbling two steps, and Dong was about to fight back. Two sharp swords pierced through the body again.

The blood immediately stained the clothes red......

This sudden assassination lasted about a cup of tea. The city guards came in a hurry, and when they saw Dong lying in a pool of blood, they immediately panicked! If Dong dies, I'm afraid that the entire city guard army will suffer. So, in a fierce battle, all the assassins were captured, and Dong was hurriedly sent back to the Liangwang Mansion by his personal entourage. The whole Chang'an was boiling all at once!

After receiving the notice, Lanchi general Zhao Yun mobilized the Lanchi garrison and quickly took over the defense of the Chang'an Guard. The blockade of Chang'an is impenetrable.

When Dong Ji was notified, he was painting with Lu Xin in General Wei's mansion.

After hearing the news of my father's assassination, he hurried back to the house...... Gao Shun even transferred the generals of General Wei's Mansion to Dong Ji, escorting them all the way.

When Dong Ji returned to the Liangwang Mansion. And he saw that a great multitude was gathered at the door.

Reputedly. Even Liu Wei was notified and sent Yang Qian to check and explore. Officials from all sides gathered outside the mansion, and the troops urgently transferred from Lanchi were four or five thousand people guarding the area around the Liangwang Mansion. Seeing Dong Ji coming back, a big man ran out of the mansion and said with a crying voice: "The eldest son, the eldest prince...... Chitose he ......"

"Wuyan, shut up!"

Dong Ji shouted. "My father bravely crowned the three armies and was the first military general in the world. How can a foolish thief hurt my father's life? ”

After speaking, he swept the outsiders at the gate with a cold gaze.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it looks like someone wants to do it before the big exam in the fall. Make some articles...... Father will be fine. Adults, please go back to the house first. Yuan Zhi, immediately sent someone to Fort Dumail. Transferred the Inspectorate to Chang'an. Inform Tingwei that the matter will be taken over by the Inspectorate from now on. All Assassins were handed over to the Inspectorate...... No one is allowed to argue until the matter has been clarified. ”

"Whoa!"

Dong Ji is straightforward in his mouth, but he is not Xu Shu.

This Yuan Zhi is Zhou Budo. Coincidentally, Zhou Budo's words had been settled by the Zhou Dynasty long before he was born.

Also called Yuanzhi.

Just like Zhuge Liang's cousin Kong Ming, Hu Zhao is also called Kong Ming.

At that time, after Dong found out, he jokingly said: "I didn't expect that there would be two Yuanzhi under my command!" ”

Chang'an Tingwei is now served by Liu Xian. is also a member of the Dong family, and he is Zhou Budo's uncle, so it is naturally the safest for Zhou Budo to come forward.

Zhou Budo took the order and left, Dong Ji strode into the Liangwang Mansion, and the strong man followed closely.

Wu Yan, the life of the soldier, is a native of Wu County, Yangzhou. Three generations of ancestors are farmers in Gujiabao. In addition to the people who died in Gujiabao, many farmers belonging to Gujiabao also fled from Gujiabao, and Wuyan's family was among them.

Wu Yan was very young at the time, and under the leadership of his parents, he fled to Jingnan.

His father died when he was ten years old, and his mother worked hard to raise him, but when he was sixteen years old, he suffered a serious illness.

Wu Yan's family, who lived in Youyang at the time.

His mother was seriously ill, and although Wu Yan was a filial son, his family was poor. He sold himself on the street, praying for money to save his mother's life. At that time, Zhou Bin happened to be ordered to go to Hutou Mountain, and saw that the sixteen-year-old Wu Yan was more than seven feet tall, with big shoulders and a round waist, and a powerful appearance, and he immediately fell in love. He paid for Wu Yan to treat his mother's illness, and took Wu Yan to Hutou Mountain.

Sixteen-year-old Jigohiko, born with divine powers.

And it is very good-looking, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, white teeth and red lips.

Able to crack tigers and leopards with bare hands, he was valued by Shamoke and stayed on Hutou Mountain. Once in the valley, he ambushed Li Yan with Hu Zhao, and killed Li Yan in the valley. Later, Hu Zhao heard that Wu Yan was from Gujiabao, so he asked him to bring a letter and recommended him to Chang'an.

People like Dong Shamoke have an instinctive preference for military generals.

Although Wu Yan has not systematically practiced martial arts, his talent is extremely good. Coupled with his natural strange strength, Dong has to value it.

However, Dong did not keep Wu Yan by his side, but let him follow Dong Ji.

This Wuyan is not an immediate general, but under the step, he can even fight with Dian Wei without a win. So much so that Dian Wei exclaimed: "When I was eighteen years old, I was no match for today's scholars. If in a few years, the courage of the warrior will not be inferior to my tiger

This compliments. But it's very high.

Dong Ji took Wu Yan into the mansion, and after the door was closed, he turned his head and asked, "Shi Ze, my father ...... Wang"

"Eldest son, the master mother is in the backyard, waiting for you to go."

Dong Ji was stunned, nodded and said, "After a while, you will go to Uncle Yuanrong and transfer the technical fighters in the house, three steps and one post." Careful guarding. ”

"The young general understands!"

Wu Yan is a smart person, how can he not understand what Dong Ji means?

Dong Ji hurried to the backyard and saw Dong Tie standing with his sword at the door. Seeing Dong Ji coming, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "The eldest prince ......"

"How's my father doing?"

"The eldest prince will know when he goes in!"

Dong Ji pushed open the door. Although there are already some preparations. But he was still slightly stunned.

There were quite a few people sitting in this room. In addition to Cai Yan Dong Lu and Huang Yueying Ren Hongchang Cai Jie, there are also Keats Ma Zhen and several ministers of the Chengming Palace. Dong Duan sat on the couch, covered in blood. But he didn't see any problems on his face, and he talked and laughed with everyone.

"Father, what are you ......?"

Dong laughed, "Bowei." Wasn't it taken aback? ”

Dong Ji let out a sigh, "Father, you're scared to death...... It's good, how can it ...... Mother, you can't ...... anything."

Cai Yan glared at Dong viciously. Gritting his teeth, he said, "This matter has nothing to do with us. It's your daddy's plan to make a good show. Bowey, you don't know. When he was carried back covered in blood, it frightened us...... No, even the Bank of China let me get caught from the hospital. I didn't expect it...... Look at him, how can he look the slightest bit hurt? ”

Dong Ji couldn't cry or laugh, "Father, which one are you singing?" When I returned, both aunts were terrified. ”

Dong smiled: "If not, how can we hide Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others?" ”

"Father, what are you ......?"

Cai Jie sat beside Dong, "Daddy, don't do this next time." Sanniang and Xiaoma are pregnant, if they are scared, won't they have fetal gas? ”

"Hey, hey, don't take it as an example, don't take it as an example!"

Dong got off the ground from the couch and said to Dong Ji: "You immediately send those assassins, as well as the hundred personal guards accompanying you today, to Luoyang secretly. Also, let Lao Ji carry the Wei army and Meng Tan to lead the trolls to be escorted to Ruoyang to wait for my orders. Ladies, please forgive me for today's incident, but before I uncover the mystery, please cover for me, and only say to the outside world that I am seriously injured and will not be able to see the guests. ”

Cai Jie said softly: "Daddy, you ......"

"I want to personally lead the soldiers and horses and supervise the battle of Jingzhao."

"Huh?"

Cai Yan was taken aback when he heard this, "Husband, why do you want to ...... again?"

Dong looked at the people in the room and sighed, "This battle has been planned since the second year of Taiping. If it goes well, it will be my last battle in the Central Plains. Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Ce...... They are all heroes, and if I can't participate in this battle, I won't be able to live happily for the rest of my life. What's more, wouldn't he be sad if I didn't participate in seeing Meng De off? In this battle, Gongtai Liang Xi, Ma Liang and Huang Rong will all go with me.

In the matter of Chang'an, please ask the ladies to help more...... Bowei, everything must be discussed with others, and it is necessary to ensure that the autumn examination is carried out on time and safely. ”

Dong Ji Ji Lingling struck a chilling cicada.

The moment Dong said this, he obviously felt that something was not quite right with the gaze of Gu Yong and the others looking at him.

Although it is said that Dong regards him as the heir, he has been approved in the house.

Even in the entire Chang'an, it is also recognized by most people. But Dong has never said anything about it positively, and everything is just speculation.

Today, Dong still hasn't said it clearly.

But in front of everyone, it should be said that the words have been expressed very clearly!

Dong Ji intervened and saluted, "Father, rest assured, the child will definitely cooperate with several adults to ensure that the autumn examination can be carried out smoothly." ”

"That's great!"

Dong said, looked at Gu Yong and the others, and said in a deep voice: "Ten years of hard work, there will be a bumper harvest today." However, the more this is the case, the more cautious it becomes. Senior brother, several adults, early tomorrow morning, I will leave Chang'an secretly, and everything will be entrusted to you. ”

Gu Yong and the others also stood up and bowed.

"Chitose, please relax, we will make arrangements and never disappoint Chitose's high expectations."

Dong laughed......

He pushed open the door, glanced at Dong Tie, who was standing at the door and guarded the ground, and after being silent for a long time, he sighed: "Yuanrong, it's time to close the net!" ”

Dong Tie also smiled, "The villain has been waiting for this day for three years. ”
