Chapter 131: Two Let Xuzhou
This Liu Bei entered the city of Xuzhou, and he encountered Tao Qian to let Xuzhou, but Cao Bao spoiled a good thing, but he couldn't, he could only wait for the follow-up turnaround, and at the moment Liu Bei wrote a letter to Cao Cao outside the city, Tao Qian asked why, Liu Bei Naiyun, "Send a book first, what to do, if it doesn't follow, it's not too late to fight with it!" ”。
Liu Bei broke into Xuzhou, Cao Cao was already angry, and Kong Rong and Tian Kai saw that Liu Bei entered the city, so they did not do the offensive, Cao Cao just took a breath and scolded in the army, "This Kong Rong and Tian Kai also dare to meddle in their affairs, and they must let them go without returning, so they will raise troops to attack these two, and when they were about to have a seizure, they suddenly heard a war book in Xuzhou City!"
Cao Cao opened the letter, which said, "Xuande has to worship the king from outside the gate, Dong Zhuo abandoned Luoyang and went to Chang'an, and the monarch said goodbye, the time has been more than a year, now the name of Cao Gong has been like thunder, no one in the world has heard of it, and the respect for his father Cao Song, it is actually Zhang Wen's doing, unwilling to Tao Qian's thing, such as today's unsettled, Dong Zhuo's remnants are raging, the Yellow Turban remnants are more than one, Wan Wang Cao Gong first the urgency of the court, and then personal enmity, withdraw the siege of Xuzhou's soldiers, in order to save the world, then Xuzhou is very fortunate, the world is very fortunate! ”。
After Cao Cao read the letter, he scolded, "Where did this Liu Bei pop up with a flea, and he rushed to persuade me, I can't help myself!" Cao Cao ordered someone to cut off the messenger who sent the letter, but he didn't care about Kong Rong and Tian Kai, and attacked the city with the strength of the whole army.
Xun You also saw Liu Bei's letter and advised Cao Cao, "This Liu Bei originally rescued, first salute and then soldier, the lord should reply to his people with good words, in order to slack Liu Bei's heart, and then use troops in secret, then Xuzhou can be broken!" ”。
Cao Cao thought that Xun Yu was reasonable, so he followed his plan, but asked someone to let go of the messenger who sent the letter, so that he could entertain him, and wrote a reply letter to Liu Bei, saying that the matter of Xuzhou was still negotiable.
When discussing the countermeasures to attack Xuzhou, suddenly a meteor horse broke into Cao Cao's army, Cao Cao asked why, and the meteor horse was a letter of writing, preparing that Lu Bu had broken through Gongzhou and entered Puyang.
Sure enough, as Guo Jia said before, the base camp of Gunzhou left by Cao Cao to attack Xuzhou is not safe, it is said that this Lu Bu traveled several places to Zhang Miao's men, and at that time Chen Gong was also recommended by Zhang Chao to his brother Zhang Miao, Chen Gong first arrived under Zhang Miao, so he gave Zhang Miao a plan and said, "If it falls apart today, heroes rise together, and the king is thousands of miles away, but he is controlled by others, and he is sad!" Now that Cao Cao is fighting in Xuzhou, Gunzhou is bound to be empty, and Lu Bu is the brave man in the world, and he will take Gunzhou together, and the hegemony can be profitable! ”。
This Zhang Miao is entrenched in the land of the Bohai Sea, his uncle Zhang Ji is a general in the imperial court, and Zhang Miao is also an ambitious master, seeing Lu Bu coming, he is worried that there is nowhere to stabilize this person, just to drive Lu Bu for his own use, the moment is very happy, allocate 50,000 horses to Lu Bu, to take Gunzhou.
Lu Bu got 50,000 horses, and asked Zhang Miao for Chen Palace, and then the whole army went to fight in Gunzhou, and in a few days, he broke through the main city of Gunzhou, and then occupied Puyang, in Gunzhou, only Juancheng, Dong'e, and Fan County were well protected, or Xun Yu and Cheng Yu designed to defend to the death, so they could resist Lu Bu's offensive, and the general Cao Ren counterattacked Lu Bu several times, but could not win, so he complained to Cao Cao.
When Cao Cao heard that something had happened in Gunzhou, he was shocked and said, "If Gunzhou is lost, everyone will be homeless, and they must not return to the army!" Guo Jia said on the side, "This Liu Bei sent a letter to persuade you to withdraw from the army, and at this moment, it is just right to sell his favor to Liu Bei, and it is not too late to return to Gunzhou!" ”。
Cao Cao used Guo Jia's strategy, immediately pulled out the camp and returned to Gunzhou, and before leaving, he sent another letter to Liu Bei, which was the face of Yun Xuande's affection, and did not add Tao Qian's sin!
Tao Qian read Cao Cao's letter and saw that Cao Cao also respected Liu Bei, otherwise he would not have withdrawn just because of Liu Bei's words, so Tao Qian made Xuzhou's intention even more, thinking that Xuzhou would definitely be governed in the hands of Liu Bei.
Xuzhou is safe, the people of Xuzhou are also safe, Tao Qian is overjoyed, Kong Rong, Liu Bei and Tian Kai are invited to the city to feast, Tao Qian invited Liu Bei to live on the throne, arched his hand and said to everyone, "The old man is old, the second son is not talented, and he is not worthy of the country's heavy responsibility, Liu Bei Liu Xuande is the emperor of the family, and he is highly talented, he can lead Xuzhou, and the old man is willing to recuperate!" ”。
Liu Bei wanted to take over Tao Qian's fist and fist, but when he was about to speak, Kong Rong said first, "Although the Xuande brothers are highly virtuous and talented, but Xuzhou Mu is a big member, how can he privately want to let it, if Lord Tao Qian is interested in Liu Bei, he should play the court first, if the court promises, it is not too late for the adults to want to let it go!" ”。
This Kong Rong is the descendant of Confucius, benevolence and etiquette are naturally observed, the so-called monarch and minister, father and son, of course, keep in mind, so this Tao Qian privately let Xuzhou matter, it is unreasonable, so Kong Rong took the lead in vetoing it, this Liu Bei also secretly complained, "Why do people always come to harm my good deeds?" ”。
However, Liu Bei's face was not revealed, "What Kong Rong Kong Wenju said is extremely true, this matter is inappropriate, adults should think about it deeply, and a certain person came to save Xuzhou, not Xuzhou, don't let the heroes of the world think that Liu Bei has different intentions!" ”。
Tao Qian saw that Kong Rong was reasonable, so he said, "This matter is because I didn't think about it, if Liu Yuanjun is really unwilling to accept Xuzhou, I also have a law, near Xuzhou, a county, named Xiaopei, enough to garrison the army, ask Xuande to garrison here, in order to ensure that Xuzhou is comprehensive, okay?" ”。
First there was Cao Bao, and then there was Kong Rong, all of which were bad things for Liu Bei, but Liu Bei couldn't show it, this time Xuzhou was a great opportunity, Liu Bei naturally didn't want to miss it, and Tao Qian proposed to garrison Xiaopei, which was also in Liu Bei's arms, in the land of Xuzhou, you can figure Xuzhou!
Liu Bei thanked Tao Qian at the moment, and Tao Qian feasted on everyone and talked about wine, but Liu Bei didn't have a good face for this Kong Rong.
After the banquet, Kong Rong and Tian Kai each went back to their places, and when they left, neither of them forgot to blackmail Tao Qian and asked for a lot of grain and grass, and Tao Qian was not stunned, after all, people send charcoal in the snow, and he has to repay the peach!
Liu Bei also led the army away and went to the land of Xiaopei to repair the city wall and appease the local people.
Don't mention Xiaopei Liu Bei, but said that back to the army of Gunzhou, Cao Ren led the crowd to catch it, saying that Lu Bu is powerful, and Chen Gong is supplemented, the edge is very strong, the main city of Gunzhou, and the land of Puyang, have all been captured, thanks to Xun Yu and Cheng Yu, the two of them stubbornly defended Juancheng, Dong'e, and Fanxian, so as to keep the foundation, Cao Cao said, "I expect that Lu Bu has courage and no strategy, so there is no need to worry!" At the moment, set up camp and go to the village, and then discuss the strategy against the enemy.
When Lu Bu in the city of Gunzhou heard that Cao Cao had returned, he summoned the deputy generals Xue Lan and Li Feng, and said, "The time for the two of you to be under my hands is not short, now is the time to use you, you and the two of you will lead 10,000 troops to defend Gunzhou, and I will personally lead the troops to attack Cao Cao!" ”。
Xue Lan and Li Feng got the order, and Lu Bu wanted to order his troops to get up, but when Chen Gong heard the news, he hurried to see Lu Bu, "The general abandoned Gunzhou, what do you want?" ”。
Lu Bu had already ordered all the soldiers and horses, and said, "I want to garrison Puyang, form a horn with Gunzhou, and then personally break Cao Cao!" ”。
Chen Gong said, "The general's words are wrong! Xue Lan and Li Feng will not be able to hold Gunzhou, this plan is not possible, one hundred and eighty miles south of here, there is a mountain, the terrain is dangerous, you can ambush 10,000 elite soldiers, Cao Cao entered Gunzhou, must pass through here, when the time comes, wait until Cao Cao's army is half, then ambush the army, one blow can capture Cao Cao! ”。
Lu Bu didn't think about it, and said, "A certain brave warrior in the world, disdain to use ambush soldiers, go to Puyang, wait for Cao Cao to arrive, fight to the death with him, Cao Cao will be captured by me!" ”。
Chen Gong shook his head and said, "The puppet doesn't listen to me!" ”。
Cao Cao's soldiers and horses traveled to the place of Gunzhou for one hundred and eighty miles, and the road was difficult and dangerous, and Xun Yu said in the army, "If Lu Bu lays an ambush here, it can be described as dangerous!" Cao Cao thought that Xun You was reasonable, so he ordered the whole army to move slowly, first sent a team of pathfinder soldiers and horses, explored the road in front, and made sure that there was no ambush in front of him, before leading the army over, Cao Cao smiled and said to Xun You, "Lu Bu has no plan, so he will teach Xue Lan, Li Fengzhi and others in Gunzhou, he himself went to Puyang, I taught Cao Ren to lead the army to besiege Gunzhou, I personally conquered Puyang, the soldiers are fast, and they will be able to win!" ”。
When Chen Gong heard that Cao Cao's troops were approaching Gunzhou, he said to Lu Bu, "Now that Cao Cao is leading his troops from Xuzhou, he must be tired, and it is advisable to fight quickly, and not give Cao Cao a chance to breathe!" ”。
Lu Bu didn't listen to Chen Gong's words, "My horse dominates the world, why are you afraid of a Cao Cao?" After the village is stable, I will personally go out and capture it! ”。
But said that Cao Cao in Puyang City under the village, stabilize the army, the next day, will lead the crowd to fight Puyang, the formation is open, the soldiers and horses are displayed, and Cao Cao stands in the array, the armor is covered, the long sword is in the hand, looking at the Puyang City, the military gate is wide open, out of the army, Lu Bu takes the lead, there are six strong generals lined up around him, the first on the left is Zang Ba, the second Cao Xing, the third Cheng Lian; The first one on the right is Wei Xu, the second Song Xian, and the third Hou Cheng, these six athletes are around Lu Bu, and the moon borrows the sun, which can be regarded as very imposing, and Lu Bu led 50,000 troops out of the city, and the drums were loud.
Cao Cao pointed at Lu Bu and asked, "I have no enmity with you, why did you take away my Gunzhou?" ”。
Lu Buli stood on the red rabbit horse and laughed loudly, "The Han family city, those who see it have a share, why is it yours?" ”。
Cao Cao was furious, "The three surnamed slaves, don't talk wildly, just pay it back in exchange for my Gunzhou, if you don't pay it back, don't blame me Cao Cao for not remembering your merit in killing Dong Zhuo!" ”。
This "three-surname house slave" is a weakness of Lu Bu, killing his father-in-law Ding Yuan, killing his father-in-law Dong Zhuo, this Lu Bu is not surnamed three surnames, he was furious at that time, and said, "Who can kill Cao Cao for me first?" ”。
Lu Bu's tent under Zang Ba reined in the horse and came out, and in Cao Cao's camp, Le Jin patted the horse to fight, the two fought for more than 30 rounds, and the winner was not divided, and then Xiahoudun also came out, and Wei continued to intercept Xiahoudun in the Lu Bu formation.
This Wei continued to fight for less than ten rounds, and there was a defeat, Lu Bu was very annoyed, and personally supported the horse to fight, one of Cao Cao's formations saw Lu Bu make a move, and he was also ready to move, but was stopped by Cao Cao, "And wait for a while, I have my own plan!" ”。
I don't know who wants to make a move? What countermeasures does Cao Cao have to deal with Lu Bu, and see the next chapter.
