Chapter 413: The Fall of Qian County

Zhao Yun accepted Xun You's construction and led the army to attack Qian County, but he didn't want Jiang Ji in Qian County, so he actually saw through his plan to deceive the city, and in turn lured him to surrender.

Thanks to Zhao Yun's resourcefulness, he saw through the weakness of Jiang Ji's lack of strength, and took advantage of the opportunity to lead the army to suddenly launch a counterattack, and shocked the enemy with his own bravery, killing more than ten enemy generals and hundreds of enemy soldiers in one go, and capturing the enemy's main general Jiang Ji alive, which played a decisive role in the final victory.

In addition, Zhao Yun's prestige in the army is also fully revealed through this battle, although he is surrounded by the enemy, his soldiers are able to do not mess up, and can calmly analyze and carry out Zhao Yun's orders to the letter, which is the fundamental guarantee for the victory of this battle.

Otherwise, once the whole army is in chaos, even if Zhao Yun is the overlord alive, he can only end up retreating with hatred.

Of course, on the other hand, because of Zhao Yun's great wisdom and courage in this battle, his prestige in the army has been further enhanced, and many soldiers have reached the point of blind obedience to him, and even those soldiers of the Cao army who surrendered are in awe of this world-shattering general.

After a fierce battle in the middle of the night, Zhao Yun finally led his troops to conquer Qian County, where a large number of grain and grass, armor, weapons, horses and other materials piled up here also fell into Zhao Yun's hands, these materials not only made Zhao Yun's five thousand cavalry worry about food and clothing in the next two years, but also made Cao Zhen, who was stationed in Song County, lose his foundation, and from then on it seemed to be a tree without roots, water without a source, and a dog without a family.

Zhao Yun ordered people to clean the battlefield overnight, and by the next morning, the entire county town had been completely controlled in his hands, and when the city gate was opened on time, many people who came and went even noticed it. What is flying on the head of the city is no longer the banner of Wei......

Zhao Yun ordered someone to bring the captured Jiang Ji up, and then persuaded him to surrender, because Zhao Yun could see from this battle that this Jiang Ji was a very resourceful person, and he was able to see through his plan lightly. And he will plan and persuade his own side to surrender, thanks to his sufficient prestige in the army, this did not cause a great chaos in the army, otherwise, even if he does not surrender, just by virtue of the chaos of his own sergeants, he will definitely lose at the hands of this person this time.

"Didn't Ben command? If you want to invite Mr. Zitong over, why do you push it? Zhao Yun saw that the soldiers pushed Jiang Ji over. His face was very displeased, and he shouted in a deep voice.

Next, Zhao Yunyou personally stepped forward to untie the bindings, helped Jiang Ji to take a seat, and then bowed down, and said sincerely: "Yun Yijie martial arts, if there is any offense, please forgive me." The world is in turmoil. The suffering of the people is not endless, and the king of Chu in my family has the Han family in his heart. Caring for the people, gathering the heroes of the world with the talents of the sky, swallowing the four seas, pacifying the thieves in all directions, and protecting the people of the world, Mr. Yunjian has a genius in his belly. Don't dare to do harm, I specially ask Mr. to help me fight, if Mr. is willing to bend down, Yun is willing to worship as a military advisor, and write to the lord. Please be the Counsellor Lieutenant. ”

After finishing speaking, Zhao Yun bowed again, very sincerely.

Seeing this, Jiang Ji couldn't help sighing, then stood up, bowed and saluted: "The general is so polite, how can Ji be restrained?" Ji Suwen the name of the general, see it today, the fruit is extraordinary, the general is in danger but can command strictly, so that the army is convinced, dare not move, the ability to command the army is rare in the world, the general is in a predicament but can think calmly, see through the strength of our army, and can make up his mind decisively, will be calculated, break our army, this courage and courage, this wisdom, Ji admired, the general is brave and strategic, calm and courageous, plus the command of the army, it is really worthy of the world's famous general, Ji can serve under the general, fortunately how to do it? ”

When Zhao Yun saw Jiang Ji's surrender, he was overjoyed, and immediately worshiped Jiang Ji as a military advisor, and wrote to Liu Qi, requesting that Jiang Ji be appointed as a counselor and lieutenant.

After that, Zhao Yun took Jiang Ji's hand and said: "Although I have taken Qian County now, most of the big families in the city are from the Cao clan, and there are also people from the Xu clan, and they are not attached to each other, and the rest of the counties have not yet been submitted, I don't know why Mr. taught me?" ”

Jiang Ji thought for a while and then said: "Ji Su heard that the king of Chu said, the sin is not as good as his wife and children, although the Cao clan is the Cao Wei royal family, and the Great Chu is an enemy, but they are all ordinary people, if the general kills him, it will leave a bad name, and other counties are afraid to join each other because of fear, according to Ji's opinion, the general Mo ordered within two days, let the Cao clan move out of Qian County, and find another way to make a living, so that Qian County can be stabilized because of the absence of the Cao clan, and the rest of the counties will also be obedient because of the general's leniency, so that The general can gain a foothold in Qian County, otherwise, once the Cao army arrives, the people of Hejun will either report the news, or the inside and outside should be combined, and I am afraid that although the general will win the county, it will be difficult for a long time in the future. ”

Zhao Yun thought silently when he heard this, and felt that what Jiang Ji said made a lot of sense, so he ordered Xiahoulan to post a list of articles, announcing that several big clans such as the Cao clan and the Xu clan would be allowed to move out of Qian County within two days.

As soon as this order was given, those major families loyal to Cao Wei rushed to flee from Qian County, although they took a lot of supplies with them, but because Zhao Yun ordered the prohibition of burning and destroying houses and land, there were still a lot of gains.

Those vacant houses will be sold to the people at a low price, and there are only a limited number of poor people who have no houses, even if the people have no money in their hands, it doesn't matter, because the county government is the guarantee, the IOU is issued, and the people are lent at low interest, and it is not too late to repay it when it is repaid.

In this way, Zhao Yun bought the hearts of the people with the relocation of the Cao clan, and won the strong support of the people, so that the people of the entire county sincerely supported Zhao Yun's rule.

What's even more gratifying is that because Zhao Yun let go of these big clans represented by the Cao clan, this made the big clans in other counties feel at ease, because Zhao Yun could even let go of Cao Cao's clansmen who were the enemies of the King of Chu, and for these ethnic groups that had little to do with the Cao regime, they were naturally mainly lenient, and Zhao Yun's series of benevolent policies in Qian County made them further realize Zhao Yun's tolerance, so these places all vied to surrender to Zhao Yun.

In just three days, in addition to Xiao County, which was previously taken over by Deng Zhi, Xiangxian, Zhuyi, Juxian, Kuxian, Chengfu and other places all surrendered, and Zhao Yun's ruling order in Qian County quickly stabilized.

At this time, Cao Zhen, who had received Zhao Yun's occupation of Qian County, was shocked when he heard the news, and he discussed with Cao Xiu, who had not yet arrived in Qian County and hurriedly fled to Song County after hearing that Qian County had changed hands, and then decisively led the army to retreat to Chen County, because they knew deep that as long as they dared to lead the army to counterattack Qian County, they would definitely be attacked by Lu Meng and Zhao Yun. In that case, not only will they not be able to recapture the county, but they will even lose the little army in their hands.

Even so, Cao Zhen's army was pursued by the army of LΓΌ Meng, which followed, and after a major battle, Cao Zhen's army lost more than 2,000 people, and then retreated to Chen County.

However, it was said that Cao Cao was shocked after getting the news that Zhao Yun had seized Qian County, not only because Qian County was his hometown, and his prestige would be greatly lost after losing it, but also because of the important position of Qian County now, because after Qiao County was captured, Runan and Qian County have been connected to each other since then, so that Liu Qi can dispatch Lu Meng's army stationed in Runan to aid Yingyin, so that I am afraid that Yang Zhai's Cao Hong and Sima Yi's army will be difficult to resist. What is even more worrying is that the Huainan County guarded by Zhang Liao is now completely surrounded by Liu Qi's territory, and as long as Huainan is occupied by the enemy, it can liberate tens of thousands of troops of Xu Shu, the assassin of Yangzhou, which may lead him to retreat on the entire Central Plains.

"Jiang Ji's guy is really hateful, he is so grateful to this king that he didn't know that he was loyal to the death, but he surrendered shamelessly, and he also offered Zhao Yunpifu a plan to consolidate his power in Qian County, which is really shameless."

Cao Cao, who was angry, scolded the case, and suddenly felt dizziness in his head, and the whole person fell down weakly.

The attendants on the left and right were shocked when they saw this, and hurriedly helped Cao Cao up, but they heard Cao Cao smile bitterly: "It's not too tight, it's just that the old problem has been committed again, just rest on the couch for a while." ”

The attendants on the left and right naturally knew about Cao Cao's old problem, and they didn't dare to say much at the moment, so they helped Cao Cao to the couch. Let him recuperate.

But at this moment, he suddenly saw a scribe come in and whispered in his ear: "King Qiqi, Sima Changshi has a secret letter. ”

When Cao Cao heard Sima Yi's letter, he was suddenly shocked, thinking that there was something wrong with Yang Zhai, and he opened the envelope with shaking hands, but saw Sima Yi telling him in the letter that if Xun You fled, he would definitely not go straight to Yingchuan from Luoyang, and it was very likely that he would enter Hanoi from Luoyang, and then enter Henan through Yecheng and Liyang, and then enter Xuzhou, because this is the safest way for a seriously ill Xun You, otherwise, I am afraid that even if the road is unimpeded, the sick body on the tour will definitely not be able to withstand the torture of running all the way.

Cao Cao was taken aback when he saw the letter, and hurriedly ordered someone to investigate, but the result was as Sima Yi expected, and what made him even more depressed was that the person who offered Zhao Yun a plan to seize Qian County this time was Xun You, who was suspicious of him, and was rescued by Liu Qi's meticulous work, and escaped from under his nose.

After hearing the results of the investigation, Cao Cao suddenly filled his chest with anger, spit out a mouthful of blood, and scolded through gritted teeth: "Xun You, this old horseman, does not remember the kindness of this king at all, and even instigated Zhao Yun to attack my county, if the old man catches you in the future, he will definitely break your old horseman into thousands of pieces, crush your bones and scatter ashes, in order to vent the anger in my heart." ”

After thinking about it for a while, Cao Cao, who was furious, issued an order to demote Cao Zhen to a partial general, and Cao Xiu to a general, but they were guilty of meritorious service, and they defended Chen County and Liang State respectively.

Fortunately, when he heard that the people of the Cao clan had been released by Zhao Yun, his heart was a little settled, so he sent Xu Chu to lead the Tiger Guards to greet them, place them in Yecheng, and give them to the field, but he didn't expect that this would cause a contradiction between the surname of Qianjun and the surname of Jizhou.......
