Chapter 92: Yanzhou Rebellion
After Cao Cao took Luoyang. The pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info held a celebration banquet in the city, but on the third day of the celebration banquet, a news came that made Cao Cao's face instantly turn blue.
In Yanzhou, Zhang Miao and Bian Rang rebelled. Zhang Miao and Bian Rang are both famous people in Yanzhou, with extremely terrifying appeal, and under their planning, Yanzhou's generals have defected. Now only Zhencheng and Puyang are still in the hands of Cao Cao in the entire Yanzhou, led by Cao Cao's important minister Xun Yu to resist stubbornly.
Cao Cao said with a gloomy face, "Please come to the meeting." ”
Guo Jia was woken up, and regardless of whether the clothes on his body were already put on, he immediately went to Cao Cao's mansion.
"Fengxiao, Yanzhou is lost." Cao Cao said with a sad face.
Hearing this, Guo Jia's face showed a look of disbelief, and said: "Yanzhou City is taken care of by Chen Liutaishou Zhang Miao, how can it be lost." “
"If the person who rebelled was Zhang Miao." Cao Cao's face turned purple, Zhang Miao was Cao Cao's friend from childhood to adulthood, and Zhang Miao's rebellion caused Cao Cao to suffer a major blow.
"How is Yanzhou now?" Guo Jia's face changed first, and then asked.
Cao Cao said: "Most of Yanzhou has now fallen into the hands of Zhang Miao, and only the soldiers and horses of Zhencheng and Puyang are being led by Wen Ruo to resist Zhang Miao's army. ”
When Guo Jia heard this, he let out a sigh of relief and said, "As long as there are still cities in Yanzhou under the control of our army, then it will not be difficult to recapture Yanzhou." Please ask the lord to quickly order the Xiahou brothers stationed in Yangcheng to send troops to recapture Yanzhou. ”
Cao Cao's face became stern, and then he said, "No, the soldiers of Yangcheng can't be transferred. Most of the soldiers and horses in Yangcheng were from Yanzhou, and if Zhang Miao threatened with their relatives, those soldiers were very likely to fall to Zhang Miao's side. ”
Guo Jia's brows furrowed and said: "Now that our army has just taken Luoyang, people are excited, if there are not enough troops, I am afraid it will be difficult to control the situation." ”
Cao Cao nodded and asked, "Who can Feng Xiao defend Luoyang?"
"General Cao Ren is brave and resolute, loyal to the lord, and it is most suitable for him to guard Luoyang."
Cao Cao nodded and said, "Although Zixiao is bold, he doesn't have much prestige, and he is stationed in Luoyang, I'm afraid he can't suppress those who are ready to move." ”
"Then you can only transfer General Miaocai from Yangcheng to Luoyang to be competent." Guo Jia said again.
Cao Cao still shook his head and said: "Although he can defend one side in seconds, he is too upright and does not know how to be flexible, so I am afraid that he will not be able to suppress the situation in Luoyang." ”
Guo Jia's face changed, as if he had thought of something.
"Whoever the lord wants?"
Cao Cao said with a smile: "Chen Xun is famous all over the world, has prestige in the army, and has the ability to defend one side, he may be the most suitable person to guard Luoyang, what does Feng Xiao think." ”
Guo Jia was shocked when he heard this, and immediately said: "Lord, don't do it." Chen Xun is Dong Zhuo's heir, and now there are many of Dong Zhuo's old departments in Luoyang City, if Luoyang is handed over to him to guard, then it is tantamount to letting the tiger return to the mountain, even if he doesn't want to rebel, then what about his old department. “
Cao Cao agreed with Guo Jia's words, but at the moment there was no other way.
"Fengxiao, he is the only one who can guard Luoyang at this moment, and he is the only one who can stabilize the situation, but he can't help but take precautions. This time, I plan to send 50,000 soldiers and horses from Luoyang City to counterattack Yanzhou, so that the two of them can be stationed in Yangcheng, as soon as Chen Xun makes a move, he will immediately send troops to exterminate it, if Chen Xun does not rebel this time, then you and I can rest assured. ”
Hearing this, Guo Jia frowned and said, "Isn't it too little to take only 50,000 soldiers and horses?" ”
As soon as these words came out, Cao Cao immediately laughed and said: "Although Zhang Miaobian is talented and learned, he is not familiar with military affairs, and I still want to bring more 50,000 horses." ”
On the second day, Cao Cao summoned Chen Xun to his mansion to discuss matters and told him that he was ready to hand over the military affairs of Luoyang and Baguan to him completely.
Looking at Chen Xun like this, Cao Cao told Chen Xun about Yanzhou, Chen Xun fell into deep thought, and then said: "The lord only plans to lead 50,000 soldiers and horses to counterattack Yanzhou, is it too little, I think Luoyang City only needs 30,000 soldiers and horses to suppress the scene, 50,000 soldiers and horses are too much, please bring more soldiers and horses to Yanzhou, in order to be safe." ”
Cao Cao smiled faintly when he heard this: "I know that there are a lot of Dong Zhuo's old troops in Luoyang City, but it is difficult to control Luoyang with only 30,000 soldiers and horses. ”
"The lord just has to take the soldiers and horses, and I ask the lord for two people to be enough to hold Luoyang."
"Who?" Cao Cao said with interest on his face.
"General Gao Shun, and General Cao Ren." Cao Cao frowned when he heard this, Gao Shun was originally Chen Xun's old department, and he was stationed in Runan County in Yuzhou at the moment, and Cao Ren was his brother, and he was loyal to him, he originally thought that Chen Xun would ask his old troops to guard Luoyang, but now it was beyond his expectations. asked Cao Ren to help him guard Luoyang, which was also to dispel Cao Cao's doubts about him.
"My lord, I thought that General Cao Ren and I would be stationed in Luoyang, and Gao Shun would lead troops to garrison Hangu Pass to guard against Li Guo and the two of them in order to ensure everything."
"Supplementally, I don't need 70,000 soldiers and horses, I only need 50,000 to be able to come to Yanzhou, Luoyang and Baguan again, which is the top priority of our army.
Since Cao Cao was so resolute, Chen Xun could only nod and agree.
On the second day, Cao Cao ordered his troops to go out, and under the city of Luoyang, Cao Cao took a deep look at Chen Xun and said: "Supplement, I still say that, I don't live up to me, I don't live up to Qing." In this way, Cao Cao's army of 50,000 left Luoyang City in such a mighty way.
......
Xuzhou, Xiapi City, since Liu Bei became Xuzhou Mu, Chen Deng proposed to move Xuzhou's governance office from Yuncheng to Xiapi, and let his general Guan Yu garrison Xiaopei, looking down on Yuzhou.
At this moment, Liu Bei was feasting Chen Deng at his home.
After Chen Deng defected to Liu Bei, he was worshiped by Liu Bei as a military commander and commander of the Xuzhou military, Chen Deng did not live up to Liu Bei's expectations, under his governance, the current Xuzhou has been several times stronger than the original Tao Qian. Now Xuzhou has 60,000 soldiers, and they are all elites, and now Xuzhou has the capital to dominate the world.
Liu Bei said like a spring breeze: "Strategist, now that Yanzhou has changed hands, what should we do now." ”
Chen Deng smiled and said: "I heard that Cao Cao has led 50,000 troops to go, and Zhang Miao and others in Yanzhou are afraid that they are not his opponents." ”
Liu Bei's face changed and said, "Then didn't the original plan of the military advisor fail?" ”
Chen Deng chuckled and said, "Zhang Miao is indeed not Cao Cao's opponent, but if my Xuzhou army participates in the war, then the battle situation will be different." ”
Liu Bei's eyes lit up, and he said, "The military advisor wants to send troops to take the land of Yanzhou." ”
Chen Deng nodded and said, "If the lord can occupy Yanzhou and Xuzhou, then the lord will have the strength to resist Yuan Shao in the north, so Yanzhou is a must for our army." ”
