Chapter 378: Frustration and Death
The one responsible for guarding Jixian County is not a military general but a civil official, and now Yuan Xi's most relied on strategist Fu Zhi, let a literati guard the city Yuan Xi also thought of it, but he still has some ability. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
In the face of Cao Cao and Zhang Xiang's two-front attack, he was not afraid, and there are rules and regulations, how many heroes in Hebei are! Zhang Xiang is deeply aware of this, and he and Yuan Shao have a large number of Hebei generals under their command.
In fact, the only people who can really be called the northern forces are Zhang Xiang and Yuan Shao, Cao Cao actually belongs to the Central Plains forces, and most of his generals come from Yanzhou, Yuzhou and other places.
The veritable generals of the Central Plains are completely different from the generals of the north in terms of their style of acting, and in terms of siege, the generals of the north are relatively far ahead, and they have all entered the range of bows and arrows.
In fact, there is no good or bad difference between these two styles, and it is easier to find the loopholes in the details of the defending side of the city, and it is relatively dangerous to attack them.
It is naturally safer to be in the back, and it can also take charge of the overall situation, but it is easy to miss the opportunity, so it is not easy to defend the city in two different ways in the face of the northern generals and the Central Plains generals.
As far as Zhang Xiang knows, this is the first time that he has led the troops, although it cannot be said that he is handsome, but he is indeed very talented in commanding troops, even more than ordinary generals.
Zhang Xiang's love for talent has risen again, but Zhang Xiang also knows that Fu Zhi is more difficult to deal with than Han Qiong Yanliang, so he doesn't have much hope, according to the current situation, it will take at least a month to capture Jixian.
Fu Zhu has been fully prepared, leaving Zhang Xiang and Cao with only one way to storm the road, there is a waterway around Jixian County, which the locals call Panhe, the river is not deep and the water flow is not urgent.
Half a month later, the entire Panhe River was dyed red, not just red in Zhang Xiang's eyes, but blood, his own soldiers, Yuan soldiers, Cao soldiers, and the blood of the three soldiers seeped into the Panhe.
It is conceivable that the tragedy of the war, when the gate of Jixian County was suddenly opened on the sixteenth day, it was not breached, Zhang Xiang and Cao Cao were suspicious people, so they did not enter the city.
If you want to surrender, then surrender early, why wait until now? Zhang Xiang can't enter, he can only let his subordinates enter, Zhang Xiang's subordinates are not lacking in dead soldiers, just pick a few.
Cao Cao made the same choice as Zhang Xiang, and after a while, the dead soldiers who entered the city came out and told Zhang Xiang an unexpected news that Yuan Xi was sick and died.
This is simply a joke, Yuan Xi provoked first but died suddenly, which is equivalent to Zhang Xiang having wasted these past few months, and this kind of thing will only be believed if you see it with your own eyes.
Zhang Xiang decided to enter the city first, Zhang Xiang's army entered Jixian County, Zhang Xiang saw some old and weak women and children, the appearance of these people at least showed that there should be no ambush in the city.
Of course, it may be that he wants to cover up, but Zhang Xiang is located in the center of the army, Zhang Xiang has just entered the city, so the striker should be close to the government, and there is no movement now, which means that there is really nothing wrong.
If there was something, it should have started a fight a long time ago, half an hour after Zhang Xiang entered Jixian County, Cao Cao ordered to enter the city, and when Cao Cao just entered the city, Zhang Xiang had already seen Yuan Xi's bones.
In fact, Zhang Xiang doesn't have much impression of Yuan Xi, that is, he has seen it a few times from afar, Yuan Xi should have just died, although there is a sick look on his face, but there is no dead breath of a corpse.
Zhang Xiang: "Can anyone tell me what's going on?" ”
Frustrated professor stood up, Zhang Xiang was still very familiar with frustration, after all, the two sides had been dealing with each other for half a month, during this time, frustrated professor was wearing military uniforms, and Ling Ding changed into a white Confucian shirt, Zhang Xiang was really a little unaccustomed to it.
Zhang Xiang: "Mr. Gonghe, it seems that you are here to solve my doubts!" ”
Cao Cao: "It's better to come early than to come smart!" Doesn't seem to have missed anything? "Cao Cao obviously rushed over quickly, and he was still sweating?
"Since the beginning of spring, the lord has been unwell, and it has become more and more serious, and then he began to be delirious, and all the doctors are helpless, so the lord decided to do a big thing before he died." ”
Zhang Xiang: "The big thing in his mouth is to provoke us, won't Mr. stop it?" ”
Frustration: "The lord has no heirs, and there are many factions in the Yuan family, so there is no way to support newcomers at all, not to mention that the two of them will not give us this time, it is better to follow the lord's wishes." ”
Zhang Xiang: "It's really that simple. ”
Frustrated: "Actually, Liu Bei once came to a letter, united to fight against Zhang Cao, the lord is in danger, so he plans to fulfill Liu Bei, the lord knows that the two are about to go south, so naturally they want to stop it." ”
Cao Cao: "If you die, you have to make trouble for others, but the reason is to fulfill Liu Bei, Yuan Xi, Yuan Xi, you are really a good person!" ”
Zhang Xiang: "It's not good to choose who is to choose my senior brother Liu Bei, my senior brother will not receive this love, it seems that Yuan Xi will not get any benefits until he dies, what are the plans of Mr. Gong and Mr. in the future." ”
Frustrated: "After burying the lord, I will live in seclusion next to him, and I can't accept the kindness of the two without asking about the world." Zhang Xiang and Cao Cao eventually left Yuan Xi's mourning hall.
The deceased is the eldest Yuan Xi has died and there is no need to investigate, although Yuan Xi died Jixian is still the seat of Youzhou, although after half a month of war, there is still not much change in the city.
Some restaurants with backgrounds are still open, Zhang Xiang and Cao Cao chose one casually, and the two of them didn't touch the wine and food at once, "My brother seems to be going down to Yizhou." ”
Zhang Xiang: "That's right, the wealth of Shu is inevitable, and my brother is also going to Jingzhou, it just so happens that our opponents this time are Liu Bei, Liu Bei is involved in Jingchuan, if Yuan Xi dies later, maybe he will really succeed." ”
Cao Cao: "What if it happens, the young horses in the south can't form cavalry, and how they get involved in the north, this is the disadvantage of territorial determination." ”
Zhang Xiang: "Liu Bei is a northerner. ”
Cao Cao: "This has nothing to do with the people in any place, since ancient times, there have been very few princes in the south, and most of them have been wedding dresses for the northern princes in the end, not to mention that Liu Bei has not yet succeeded, it's not too late!" ”
Zhang Xiang: "Yuan Xi is dead, how does Youzhou belong." ”
Cao Cao: "Youzhou is originally an old brother, and he won't rob it for his brother, so this old brother can rest assured." ”
Zhang Xiang: "Youzhou was fought by the two of us, and it is better for one person and half, and the west of Jixian County belongs to me, and I don't want the rest." "Actually, it's not that Zhang Xiang doesn't want it, but he can't want it.
The east of Jixian County is already under Cao Cao's nose, even if it is under the name of Zhang Xiang, it is just like chicken ribs, and it is a pity to abandon it if it is tasteless.
"That's fine, I want it." Cao Cao was not polite, and he could also think of what Zhang Xiang could think of, "After my brother takes Yizhou, what is the next step?" Cao Cao's words were to the point.
Zhang Xiang didn't need to hide it, because it was useless to conceal it, but it seemed that he was hypocritical, "Go east." ”
Cao Cao: "It's the opposite of Brother Wei's route, I really hope Liu Bei will last a while longer, Brother Wei doesn't want this day to come so early, it's dangerous to fight with my brother." ”
Zhang Xiang: "I feel the same way, but Liu Bei is a hundred-legged insect that dies but does not stiffen, from north to south repeatedly, I believe he will not disappoint you and me, it would be good if you were not bitten back." ”
Cao Cao: "My brother's expectations for Liu Bei are too high!" ”
Zhang Xiang: "It's not alarmist, my brother should still remember Xu Shu!" Liu Bei got a resourceful man who was more powerful than Xu Shu, with the name of Wolong, and legend has it that if he got him, he could get the world. ”
Cao Cao: "You can get the world by one person, so what have we done for so many years, the name of Wolong is the same as the troubled traitor of the brother, but it is just to pave the way for his own future, presumably that Wolong is a child of the family!" ”
Zhang Xiang: "The reputation may be fake, but the ability is real, Zhuge Liang's plan is rare, and it is unknown to turn things around." ”
Cao Cao: "Brother said this, I'm a little interested, be careful for the brother, Yizhou is not much more difficult than Jingzhou, the brother should be more dangerous than the brother, your opponent is Liu Bei." ”
Zhang Xiang: "Liu Bei is not as good as Wolong, Zhuge Liang is on your side, brother." ”
It was late at night, and the two left the restaurant, and the food on the table still didn't touch it, which shows how careful the two were, and the murdered mansion caught fire that night, and no one died or died.
Zhang Xiang suspected that Cao Cao did it, but a person who couldn't be used for himself, died Zhang Xiang didn't investigate, but his fear of Cao Cao was deeper, and Cao Cao was sometimes too ruthless.
In fact, this time Zhang Xiang really wronged Cao ****, and there were really a lot of things Cao Cao did, Zhang Xiang suspected Cao Cao, and Cao Cao was also suspicious of Zhang Xiang, but he also chose to wait and see what happened.
Frustration has indeed become a dispensable person, Cao Cao couldn't catch Zhang Xiang's feet at this time, of course, it also deepened the jealousy in his heart, but at this time, there was a person standing outside Jixian County.
That's the damned frustration, this frustration is to provoke the relationship between Zhang Xiang and Cao Cao, this is also the only thing Frustrated can do for the Yuan family, Frustrated knows that even if he lives in seclusion, he will not be at peace.
It is better to use the trick of cheating death, the golden cicada can get out of the shell, so that he can really live in seclusion, the next day Zhang Xiang and Cao Cao said goodbye to each other, as if the incident of last night had not happened, no one mentioned it.
Zhang Xiang went to the west of Jixian County to collect the place, Cao Cao went to the east of Jixian County, although the south is urgent, but what should be done is also to be done, this kind of thing can not be too hasty, you have to take your time step by step. (To be continued.) )
