readx;?“ Are you asking me to attack Xuchang? Cao Zhang frowned and said. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Shangguan Xiao opened his mouth and said: "Exactly, the general can lead the troops back to the fiefdom on the surface, pass by Xudu halfway, directly attack Xudu, take Xudu, and then hold the Han Emperor hostage, and then summon your third brother Cao Zhi to Xudu, explain everything to Cao Zhi, and then your brothers work together to let the Han Emperor crown you as the King of Wei, which is justified." ”

"According to your method, I will have to go to war with Zihuan."

"If there is no war, there will only be destruction, and the relationship between Cao Pi and Cao Zhi will be even worse, so general, you can unite with Cao Zhi."

"I heard that my brother is now drunk in the wine vat all day, I'm afraid it's gone."

"Then the general, you go and give him hope!"

"If my father were still alive, he wouldn't want us to kill each other."

"The general is just saving his life, after you take Xu Du and Cao Zhi together, after you get support, you can negotiate conditions with Cao Pi."

"If the conditions are not negotiated, I am afraid that there will be a war, I only have less than 70,000 troops now, if I start a war rashly, I will definitely not be able to defeat Cao Pi."

"Cao Pi has just ascended to the throne, and his position is still unstable, this is an opportunity, once he misses it, there will be no chance to turn over."

Cao Zhang was silent, rode forward, walked from mid-day to sunset, and finally after the sunlight disappeared, he spoke: "Okay, Yecheng in Hebei is still covered by ice and snow, and there is no snow in the Central Plains, so now is the best time to attack." ”

"Has the general decided?"

"It's decided."

"Okay, the last general is willing to be a pawn for the general and take Xudu for the general."

"The walls of Xudu are hard and difficult to break, we can't use strong ones, we can only take them by surprise, otherwise once we are trapped, we will only fail in the end."

"No! The last general was willing to bring a small number of troops into Xudu, and then when the general's brigade came, he fought desperately to open the city gate for the general. ”

Cao Zhang was taken aback, looked at Shangguan Xiao, and said, "Do you know that if you do this, you will die for a lifetime?" Maybe you'll be controlled as soon as you enter the capital. ”

"So let's hurry! General, abandon the baggage and go all out to Xu Du! The soldiers are very fast, the general only has 10,000 cavalry, as long as we are fast enough, faster than Cao Pi's herald from Yecheng, we can succeed. ”

Cao Zhang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll let the deputy general lead the troops to march slowly, and you and I will lead the cavalry straight to Xudu." ”

Shangguan Xiao nodded and said, "No!" ”

The moment Shangguan Xiao lowered his head, his eyes were full of smiles.

In Xudu's restaurant, Yan Pu [Taoist leader Yan Pu is also the son of the ghost commander Yan Pu] received a letter from Shangguan Xiao, and said with a smile on his face: "It's been a success, it's been a year, I didn't expect it to be really successful, the king is really clever." ”

"But then again, Shangguan Xiao really has some ability, and he can actually say that Cao Zhang's rebellion is really worthy of Shangguan Qian's son."

Yang Xiao smiled hehe, this Yang Xiao is Yang Yi's illegitimate son, Yang Yi and Yan Pu are in charge of the ghost pawn together, and now Yan Pu and Yang Xiao inherited their father's order and infiltrated Xu Capital together, responsible for disturbing the situation in Wei State.

"According to Shangguan Xiao's report, he will come to Xudu in less than three days, and when the time comes, we need to assist Shangguan Xiao to disrupt Xudu together, and it is necessary to open the city gate and let Cao Zhang enter Xudu."

Yan Pu said.

"Now we have 836 ghost soldiers in Xudu, and we can definitely open a city gate." Yang Xiaodao.

"Good! After waiting so long, it's time to close the net. It's time for Wancheng to take action. "Yan Pu.

。。。。。。。

Wancheng, the General's Mansion, there was a young man standing in front of Zhang He, the young man had a dark face, sparse hair, thick eyebrows and nose, big nostrils, and small eyes, which was very similar to the appearance of today's Prime Minister Pang Tong, this young man was Pang Tong's eldest son Pang Hong.

"General Zhang, there is news from Xu Du, and Colonel Yang said that we can act." Pang Hong said unhurriedly to Zhang He.

Zhang He smiled and said to Pang Hong: "It's really time to send troops, how do you think we should fight?" ”

"If Pang Hong talks about how to send troops in front of General Zhang, wouldn't it be an axe? The matter of fighting a war is still left to people who are good at doing it, and General Zhang is much better at this aspect than he is below. ”

Zhang He stroked his beard, looked at the young man in front of him, and smiled.

In the spring of 221 AD, on February 1, Zhang He led 15,000 infantry to the north to take Xudu, Xu Du Shou General Cao Ren was shocked when he heard it, and did not understand why Chu State, which was at war with Wu State, why he suddenly led an army to attack Wei State, which was unreasonable, Cao Ren personally led 20,000 troops to block Zhang He, and the two armies held each other in Luyang, Zhang He and Cao Ren's two armies fought fiercely for several days, regardless of victory or defeat.

Zhang He led the army to lead out Cao Ren, on February 20, Yang Xiao and Yan Pu in Shangguan Xiao mixed into Xuchang City, the two ordered the ghost soldiers to set fire to Xuchang City, to assist Shangguan Xiao to open the city gate, Cao Zhang led 10,000 cavalry to attack Xudu, that day it was clear that the opposition forces in Xudu, controlled the Han Emperor, and wrote a letter to Cao Ren, the general of the chariot and cavalry, asking him to come to Xudu to discuss.

Cao Ren was shocked when he heard that Xu was defeated by Cao Zhang's army, and said angrily: "Is Cao Zhang going to rebel?" ”

Hearing that the plan was successful, the cavalry general Zhang He led his army to call Cao Ren for battle, Cao Ren was extremely angry and led the army to confront Zhang He.

Zhang He looked at Cao Ren from a distance, and called out loudly: "Cao Ren, you and I are both chariot generals, and now I hear that you Xu have been attacked by yourself, then I, Zhang He, am not a villain, so I will no longer fight with you, and let you go back to Xu to quell the rebellion." ”

Cao Ren said angrily: "Zhang He, you despicable villain, you have changed hands four times, and I, Cao Ren, am ashamed to compare with you. ”

The military advisor said to Cao Ren: "General, Cao Zhang suddenly captured Xudu, and this Zhang He attacked my Wei State at this time, all kinds of phenomena show that Cao Zhang must have colluded with the Chu State." ”

"Damn! What kind of nerves did my damn nephew have, rebelled on this occasion, did he think that my Wei Kingdom was not chaotic enough? Cao Ren scolded.

"General, General Xiahoudun is in Xudu, it seems that he should be controlled by Cao Zhang."

"In the past, General Xiahou came to see Cao Zhang as his own nephew and taught him martial arts, Cao Zhang should not embarrass General Xiahou."

"General, right now, Zhang He's army is pressing the border, I'm afraid they want to drag us down and create opportunities for Cao Zhang."

"Damn it, if I retreat, Zhang He can't advance on the surface, but he will definitely attack, if I don't go to Xudu, who knows what kind of fame my nephew will make, if I flank me with Zhang He at that time, then our army will definitely not be able to support it."

Man Zhong pondered for a while and said: "General, it is better for you to take 10,000 troops to Xuchang to find out, and I will lead the troops to defend here." ”

Cao Ren pondered for a while and said, "Okay, full of favor, General Ben believes in you, and I will leave it to you here." ”

"The general can rest assured, full of favor and swears to block Zhang Sibian."

Speaking of Zhang He, the generals of Wei were not ashamed of him, and privately called Zhang He Zhang Sichang, just because Zhang He changed hands. (To be continued.) )
