Chapter 207 Attacking the army of Makino Yuan and saving the Son of Heaven Xuande to attack Cao

The above book mentions that Su You was defeated and died under Zhang Jidao.

Yuan Shang was furious when he saw it, and he led his generals to fight, but was blocked by trial and discipline.

Feng Ji handed Yuan Shang a battle report and said: "The third son, the eldest prince has also retreated to Yecheng because of the occupation of sour dates. Today, the white horse and the sour date are all in the enemy's pocket, and they have formed a flanking attack on our army. ”

The judge also said on the side: "For today's plan, we should retreat to Liyang as soon as possible, otherwise, it will be too late to regret it!" ”

Yuan Shang looked at the battle report, handed it to Yuan Xi casually, and asked, "Second brother, why haven't you read it?" ”

"What the two teachers said is right, the white horse may be difficult to conquer for a while!" After reading the battle report, Yuan Xi agreed with the opinions of the trial and discipline.

They then retreated to Liyang.

Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi abandoned their white horses and retreated to Liyang; Yuan Tan and Gao Gan retreated to Yecheng. In this way, Yuan Shao's Muye stood out on the front line.

Frustrated to Yuan Shaoyu: "My lord, the sour dates and white horses have fallen into the pockets of General Wei Liu Bei, and the four sons have retreated to Liyang and Yecheng. ”

Yuan Shao's face was haggard, and he asked, "Has Liu Xuande moved recently?" ”

"Nope. They seem to be deliberately humble and have no intention of marching! Frustrated.

"What do they mean?" Yuan Shao asked puzzled.

How did they know that all this was because Yan Liang and Wen Chou wanted to return Yuan Shao's favor, which made Liu Bei not move for a long time.

After receiving the battle reports of sour dates and white horses, Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu: "Kong Ming, Yuan Zhi, what should I do next?" ”

Zhuge Liang said: "My lord, the overall situation has been decided!" It's time to rescue the Son of Heaven! Then, he told Liu Bei about the strategy of welcoming the Son of Heaven.

It turned out that Zhuge Liang's layout was all about rescuing the Son of Heaven. Now Cao Cao has become a veritable second Dong Zhuo, so this time has become the best time to rescue the Son of Heaven!

He made Guan Yu attack Jinan and Jibei, on the one hand, to contain Yuan Shao, and on the other hand, he also planned to seize all Cao Cao's territory in Yanzhou.

He even calculated Yan Liang and Wen Chou Toucheng into it. He asked Xu Shu to lead these troops and seize Muye, so as to crush Yuan Shao's fighting spirit.

The most important battle was arranged by him in Cao Cao's Xuchang.

He and Liu Bei led an army of 100,000 from Guandu to Xuchang; Huang Zhong went out of Xiyang, seized Qianjun, and threatened the Xutian hunting ground, which is said to be composed of more than 20,000 Janissaries of Cao Cao; Zhang Fei also captured Runan and completely formed an encirclement of Xuchang.

Yuan Shao, how could this stubborn guy understand such a complex layout of Zhuge Liang? Even Cao Cao didn't figure it out.

Therefore, the person who has a real headache now is Cao Cao, and far from Yuan Shao!

Let's say that Cao Cao's soldiers and horses were killed and retreated by Yan Liang and Wen Chou's troops.

Escorted by the generals, Cao Cao escaped from the Guandu military camp and met Zhao Yun's troops on the way.

Cao Cao questioned Zhao Yundao: "I ask the Son of Heaven to crown your lord as General Wei, the same position as the Three Dukes." Your lord doesn't want to repay the emperor's favor, but he actually worked with the thief to plot my soldiers and horses, why is this? ”

"Prime Minister Cao, this is wrong! When did my lord not want to repay the emperor's favor? You kept saying that I was the mastermind of your soldiers and horses, and asked you: When will the soldiers and horses of the Son of Heaven be your family's private soldiers? Zhao Yun asked sharply.

"Bold Zhao Yun, your lord doesn't dare to talk to the prime minister like this! Why don't you get out of the way and let the prime minister pass!? Xun Yu rebuked loudly behind Cao Cao.

Cao Cao's general, Dian Wei, got Cao Cao's acquiescence, stepped forward immediately, and pointed at Zhao Yun with an iron halberd: "Junior, my lord is kind and generous, and Fang and you are kind to discuss with you." I don't want you to know what to do, don't you deceive no one in our army? After finishing speaking, he slapped the horse and waved his halberd to take Zhao Yun directly.

Zhao Yun wielded his halberd and commanded the soldiers and horses to kill.

Dian Wei stopped Zhao Yun, and Xu Huang led troops to kill him.

Taking advantage of this gap, the generals escorted Cao Cao to retreat quickly.

Knowing that Cao Cao had run away, Liu Bei was not in a hurry.

It wasn't until after capturing the sour jujube and the white horse that he marched with Zhuge Liang.

Retreat from Guandu to Zhongmu.

Cao Cao was frightened and stood on the city tower for a long time and refused to go down.

It wasn't until Dian Wei and Xu Huang returned with their soldiers and horses that he walked down tremblingly.

Holding the hands of Dian Wei and Xu Huang, Cao Cao cried bitterly: "If it weren't for the second duke, how could Cao survive?" ”

Dian Wei and Xu Huang fell to their knees with a puff to thank Cao Cao for his kindness. Everyone on the side will be moved!

That night, Cao Cao sent people to a banquet to celebrate the achievements of Dian Wei and Xu Huang.

It's a pity that the good things didn't last long, and the bad news came.

The banquet had just begun, and suddenly a letter was handed to Cao Cao.

After reading the letter, Cao Cao wailed and fainted on the banquet.

Everyone rushed over and rescued them one after another.

Xu You sent someone to find Lang Zhong.

After a long time, Cao Cao woke up: "Hey...... It hurts me to death! Fengxiao, Fengxiao, how can you abandon me and go! As soon as he awoke, he wept bitterly and wailed loudly.

Xun Yu picked up the letter and newspaper, and when he looked at it, he was stunned!

Guo Jia Guo Fengxiao died in the Xu Tian hunting ground......

The crowd was comforted.

It was so easy, Cao Cao Fang stopped his grief: "Wen Ruo, quickly give the order." Rushed back to Xuchang overnight, and a certain one was going to be buried for filial piety! ”

At this time, everyone was no longer able to comfort Cao Cao.

That night, Cao Cao led his army back to Xuchang.

Guo Jia had been transported back to Xuchang, and it was Xun Yu's nephew Xun Yu Xun Gongda who stopped Huang Zhong in Xutian.

Cao Cao said to the generals: "The ages of all the princes are similar to mine, only Fengxiao is young. I want to trust the future, but I died in middle age, which made my heart break! After speaking, he howled and wept, and then made a thick burial.

The current situation does not allow him to be overly sad, Huang Zhong and Zhang Fei have already led troops and horses to approach Xuchang.

Cao Cao hurriedly summoned everyone to discuss countermeasures.

"Liu Xuande used troops against me this time, and he must have relied on him! Could it be the Son of Heaven ......? Full pet said.

Xun Yu shook his head and said, "Definitely." What he relied on should be Yuan Benchu's inscription! He has Zhuge Liang, who calls himself 'Wolong', under his command, and this person must have made an article on the text! ”

"So, what should I do?" Cao Cao asked.

Cheng Yujin said: "The lord can make someone reveal some news to the Son of Heaven. Let's see how the Son of Heaven reacts, it's not too late for me to take action! ”

Cheng Yu's starting point is often considered from the operation of power, and he is good at taking advantage of other people's personalities. He knew the Son of Heaven very well, and wanted to use the prestige of the Son of Heaven to make Liu Bei withdraw from the army.

It's just that this time he met the most difficult person in history, and the most difficult person to deal with - Zhuge Liang Zhuge Kongming.

However, at this time, they didn't know that Liu Bei of Guandu had already begun to calculate how to deal with them under the guidance of Zhuge Liang.

At this time, Zhang Fei's soldiers and horses had already captured Runan and advanced to Yingchuan; Huang Zhong's department was in the Xutian hunting ground. If it is not solved as soon as possible, Xuchang is in danger!

Cheng Yu seemed to have a plan, so he followed Cao Cao to meet the Son of Heaven.

"Zhongde, isn't Liu Xuande's move for the Son of Heaven?" Cao Cao asked.

Cheng Yu replied: "Looking at his move, it must be intended by the Son of Heaven." If that's the case, it's a big deal! The Son of Heaven fell into his hands, and all the princes of the world may have surrendered to him! At that time, it will be difficult for us to turn over! ”

Cao Cao nodded, and asked again: "But, he is on the verge of being in the army, what should I do?" ”

"See the Son of Heaven, please decree that he should withdraw from the army! If he does not retreat, his virtuous reputation will be damaged, and Liu Xuande attaches great importance to his reputation, how can he not retreat? Cheng Yu said.

Listening to what he said, Cao Cao's nervous heart was relieved a little.

However, it is said that at this time, Zhuge Liang suggested to Liu Bei to send Zhang Jaw as the vanguard and Shi Jian as the deputy general, and led more than 8,000 soldiers and horses to attack Chen Liu; Liu Bei's army approached Zhongmu.

Liu Bei followed his words and made Zhang Jaw and Shi Lian attack Chen Liu.

Qian County has been captured by Huang Zhong, if Chen Liu falls into the hands of Zhang Jaw again, then the Cao army in the two cities of Jiyin and Dongjun will be surrounded by Guan Yu, Huang Zhong, and Zhang Jaw.

Dongjun Taishou Zhong You was well versed in military warfare, and originally resisted Guan Yu's offensive to the death, but when he found out about this situation, he quickly gathered his subordinates, reorganized his troops and horses, abandoned Dongjun, and planned to divide his troops to defend Jiyin and Chenliu.

There is a way that if you are busy, there will be chaos, and if you are chaotic, you will lose!

Guan Yu had already received Zhuge Liang's entrustment: once the Zhangjaw soldiers and horses attacked Chenliu, the defenders of Dongjun would inevitably fall out of the city. The public can pretend not to know, and secretly make the soldiers and horses lurk on the road and attack them unprepared.

The army left Dongjun, but was ambushed by Guan Yu's soldiers and horses, who had already been ambushed halfway. Zhong You was beheaded by Guan Yu, and the army scattered and fled.

Guan Gong won, took advantage of the victory to pursue, and sent Zhou Cang to pretend to be Zhong You's defeated army, called open the gate of Jiyin, and captured Jiyin.

At this point, most of Yanzhou has been under the jurisdiction of Liu Bei.

Chen's left-behind general Su Lin was a disciple of Xun Yu and was very proficient in defending the city.

Knowing that Zhangjaw's soldiers and horses had invaded the territory, he immediately ordered the four gates to be closed, recruited the people, and made the army and the people defend the city together.

Zhang Jaw and Shi Jian scolded the enemy, but to no avail for days.

Seeing that Chen Liu's city wall was strong, Zhang Jaw and Shi Lian Chen soldiers outside the city besieged Chen Liu.

A few days later, Guan Yu broke Jiyin and waved his army straight to Chenliu.

After receiving Guan Yu's battle report, Zhuge Liang was overjoyed and came to see Liu Bei.

"My lord, rescuing the Son of Heaven is just around the corner! The second general went to Chenliu, the third general pointed directly at Yingchuan, and General Huang had already attacked the Xutian hunting ground. Now Cao Mengde has no time to take care of it, and it is difficult to separate! Zhuge Liang said to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei said with a worried face: "Is my move right? What if the Son of Heaven orders us to retire? ”

Zhuge Liang seemed unprepared for this, so he asked, "Why is the lord so worried?" ”

Liu Bei stood up, put his hands behind his back, left a back for Zhuge Liang, and said in a voice full of sadness: "In the past, I adopted Yuan Zhi's suggestion and went to Chang'an to rescue the driver. It was indeed the best opportunity at that time, but His Majesty could not return with me. Now that Cao Cao is poor, if he threatens His Majesty again, what should I do? ”

Zhuge Liang realized that he had such a big layout, and there was such a loophole, but now he has to face great difficulties if he wants to make up for it.

How to rescue the Son of Heaven and crusade against Cao Cao with the Son of Heaven's holy decree is the best strategy!
