Chapter 799: The army crosses the river
Yuan Tan summoned Yuan Shang's old army, and the number of troops surged to more than 50,000, and they were stationed in Longcuo.
Cao Cao's envoy asked to see Yuan Tan, but was turned away.
Yuan Tan is like this, it is precisely in Cao Cao's hands.
The residence of Cao Cao in Yecheng.
The ministers and generals gathered together, Cao Cao looked around at everyone and said: "Yuan Tan rejected a certain envoy, he has already rebelled, what do you think?" ”
"Congratulations to Gong Cao!" Guo Jia got up and said: "Yuan Tan is like this, just to help Cao Gong seize Hebei. ”
"Bong-hyo please!" Cao Cao gestured.
Guo Jia said: "Yuan Tan's refusal to see the envoy of Duke Cao is nothing more than an intentional rebellion, Duke Cao can confirm the charge, return his daughter, and declare war on Yuan Tan!" ”
Cao Cao nodded: "I have already had this intention!" ”
Subsequently, he asked Guo Jia: "Yuan Xianxin led the army to Tunzha Yanjin, and saw that he was about to cross the river, how should he deal with it?" ”
"Where Yuan Xianxin is, I am willing to go!" Guo Jia said: "Cao Gong can allocate 30,000 soldiers and horses, and he will be taught that it is difficult to cross the river!" ”
"If you go to Fengxiao, you can rest assured!" Cao Cao looked at Xiahoudun and said to him: "Yuan Rang is the main general, Feng Xiaofei is a military division, and leads 30,000 troops to Yanjin to intercept Yuan Xianxin's army from crossing the river!" ”
Xiahoudun got up and responded.
Cao Cao returned Yuan Tan's daughter, and Fengying quickly passed the news to Yuan Xu.
Xiahoudun and Guo Jia led troops to intercept them, but Yuan Xu did not dare to slack off, and invited Tian Feng and the trial to the tent.
The servants sat around, and Yuan Xu said: "Cao Cao returned a certain niece to the eldest brother, and he is already determined to use troops against him, do you have any opinions on this?" ”
The judge said: "Cao Cao has long had the intention of using troops against the eldest son, so he did not move, first, the time has not come, and second, he is afraid of the son." Xiahoudun is the world's fierce general, and Guo Jia is the world's best talent. The two of them led 30,000 troops to intercept it, and we will definitely fight bloody battles in the future! ”
"Childe!" Tian Feng said: "The Cao army came to meet the battle, once it reaches Yanjin, our army is afraid that it will be too late to cross the river again......"
Yuan Xu instructed Jiang Jun: "Pass the order, our army will cross the river this evening!" ”
Jiang Jun left in response.
It has been some time since they came to Yanjin, and the soldiers are anxious to wait for the order to cross the river.
Knowing that the river would be crossed in the evening, the soldiers of the Tianhai Battalion were gearing up and preparing boats to cross the river.
led the army to the south, and Xiahoudun rode side by side with Guo Jia.
Xiahoudun asked: "Gong Guo, Yuan Xianxin's army has already had the opportunity to cross the river in Yanjin, why did he not move his troops, but left room for us to intercept them?" ”
"Yuan Rang thinks he left room for it?" Guo Jia smiled slightly: "Yuan Xianxin is like this, there are many reasons!" ”
"I want to hear about it!" Xiahoudun gave up his hand to ask for advice.
"First, crossing the river too early, Yuan Tan has not yet turned against Cao Gong, and he will fight with our army alone. With Yuan Xianxin's soldiers and horses, it is not enough to compete with Cao Gong! Second, the generals can wait and see the movements of our army and make adjustments at any time. As for the third, the army is stationed on the riverside, but it is reluctant to give an order, once the order is issued, the officers and men of the three armies are like a rainbow, and the fight with our army will be overwhelming! ”
Guo Jia analyzed, and Xiahoudun realized that Yuan Xu's army arrived in Yanjin and refused to cross the river for a long time, but it was more appropriate to cross the river than to cross the river early.
Frowning, he looked ahead with some concern.
The army is still far from the Yanjin Ferry, and when they arrive, the Tianhai Battalion is afraid that it has already passed the Yanjin Ferry.
The sky was overcast and dark, and several large ships at Yanjin Ferry carried the soldiers of the Tianhai Battalion to the opposite side of the riverbank.
Standing on the shore, Yuan Xu looked at the big ship that was heading towards the opposite shore.
Lin Tao came to his side: "When the army crosses the river, it will face Cao Jun directly, and it is obvious that there is a perfect plan?" ”
Yuan Xu smiled indifferently: "Your Highness thinks, can there be a plan in the world?" ”
Stunned by his question, Lin Tao immediately showed a light smile: "Obviously, even if Guo Jia comes here, he will definitely return with a feather!" ”
Yuan Xu shook his head: "Guo Jia is not the same as others, and he has had a duel with him." A small victory is endless, but Guo Jia suddenly becomes a victim of defeat, and he can often be killed! ”
Lin Tao didn't say anything more.
He has also heard of Guo Jia's name.
He didn't know much about the battles between Yuan Xu and Guo Jia in the past, but he knew a little about the battle of Runan.
The generals of the Cao army used Guo Jia's tricks at that time, and almost put Yuan Xu to death!
In the face of such a strong enemy, he really secretly pinched a cold sweat for Yuan Xu.
"When will Xianxin cross the river?" After a while, Lin Tao asked.
"Wait until the army occupies the other side!" Yuan Xu said: "Cao's army is still far from here, once our army lands on the shore, it must not delay at all, and immediately advance to the hinterland of Hebei." ”
Lin Tao nodded silently.
In terms of swordsmanship, even if it is ten Yuan Xu, it is not enough for Lin Tao to kill with a few swords.
If you talk about resourcefulness, a hundred Lin Tao can't compare to half of Yuan Xu!
Looking at the other side of the riverbank, Lin Tao said: "At some point, I often think that if I didn't learn the sword at the beginning, but learned the method of operation and research, maybe it would be in time to show it now?" ”
Yuan Xu smiled slightly, and said to Lin Tao: "Your Highness was born in the Great Han Sect Temple, and you can inherit the great unification, in terms of wisdom, how many people in the world can reach Your Highness?" ”
"It's just a name!" Lin Tao shook his head: "A certain said earlier, if Xianxin defeats Cao Cao, the army will attack elsewhere, and a certain person should persuade His Majesty today to reuse Xianxin." As for how to act in the future, it is not a matter of light judgment! ”
Lin Tao had something to say, how could Yuan Xu not hear it.
He smiled indifferently and said to Lin Tao: "What His Royal Highness said is a later word, the fourth and third dukes of the Yuan family in Hebei are the ministers of the pillars of the Han Dynasty, how can they easily do things that are not subordinate?" ”
Yuan Xu spoke very tactfully, and the corners of Lin Tao's mouth hooked up a shallow smile, but he was speechless.
Some of the things he said too early were not only not good for Yuan Xu, but also not good for him!
The large ship carrying the soldiers docked on the opposite shore.
Groups of soldiers of the Tianhai Battalion jumped onto the river bank one after another.
When the first soldiers had landed, the big ships sailed south of the riverbank.
Another group of soldiers of the Tianhai Battalion jumped on the boat and marched across the riverbank.
From sunset to dawn, all the soldiers under Yuan Xu's command landed on the shore.
On the riverbank, Yuan Xu instructed Jiang Jun: "Pass the order, and the army will advance immediately, without the slightest delay." ”
The soldiers who landed on the shore didn't even have a chance to take a breath, so they followed Yuan Xu to the hinterland of Hebei.
Guo Jia and Xiahoudun, who led the army to meet them, also urged the soldiers to speed up their march at this time.
"Knowing that Yuan Xianxin led the army to speed up the march, why did Guo Gong order our army to kill it head-on?" Xiahoudun said: "Now that the enemy has landed on the shore, our army has no way to stop it from the other side, and the difference between where to fight should not be big. ”
Guo Jia smiled indifferently and said: "Yuan Rang's words are fallacious, Yuan Xianxin led the army to leave the riverbank, the soldiers must be tired, if our army can be killed before the cantonment, the enemy army is tired, even if it can't be decided in a battle, Yuan Xianxin will also suffer some hardships."
