Chapter 515, Xun Yu's scheme
"Give up Yanzhou?" Not only was Cao Cao taken aback, but the military generals beside Cao Cao were all stunned, and Xun Yu nodded heavily, "Yes, give up Yanzhou." ”
"Why is that?" Cao Cao has been running Yanzhou for a long time, so he is naturally unwilling to give up his territory.
"Yanzhou, now that the war is in full swing and the wolf smoke is everywhere, even if the lord finally has the ability to turn the tide and repel the princes of the Five Roads, in the end, what can be left? In addition to the loss of soldiers and the loss of generals, the vitality is greatly damaged, in the end, it is just a fluke to recover a devastated ruins and desolate graves, not to mention, because of the war, many people in the territory have fled, coupled with the abnormal climate, natural disasters will come soon, this land for the lord, there is really nothing to be attached to. ”
Seeing that everyone was silent, obviously thinking about the deep meaning of his words, Xun Yu paused slightly, and then said, "Continue to stay in Yanzhou, Yanzhou will never have peace, Lu Bu and others will not give up, we want to be stable for a long time, get a chance to breathe, it is more difficult than ascending to the sky, the lord thinks, the princes of the five roads are advancing together, surging, how sure are we to repel them?" ”
Cao Cao shook his head weakly, "It's difficult..."Although Cao Cao has always been confident and optimistic, he also knows that if he wants to turn the tide, the difficulty is not ordinary.
"Hehe, but who would have guessed that we would suddenly get involved in Xuzhou? As long as some soldiers are left with me here to resist the enemy's death, the lord can quietly send troops to attack Huanglong for a long time, the Xuzhou soldiers have always been weak, and this time Cao Bao Chen Deng brought thirty or forty thousand, and there are only a handful of those who remain in Xuzhou City, and in order to be able to completely destroy the lord. They're still sending reinforcements here. This is for the lord. It's a godsend. Xuzhou, Tao Qian has been operating for many years, with sufficient grain and grass, fertile fields for thousands of miles, fertile land, and businessmen gathered, and it is far away from the hinterland of the Central Plains. Not affected by the war, in the future, the lord will be able to make a comeback after a long time, and after the lord leaves, this Yanzhou Lu Bu, Yuan Shao and others will inevitably have entanglements of interests, and maybe, they will fight against each other. As long as we sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, we will take advantage of the situation when the time comes. Yanzhou City is not in the lord's pocket in the end? ”
Xun Yu's words made everyone awe-inspired, although Xun Yu had no power to restrain the chicken, but, between gestures, strategizing, winning thousands of miles, this kind of strategy to turn things around, people are at their fingertips, it is really worthy of being a confidant and friend who is on a par with the ghost Guo Jia, neither of them is simple! They are all in the belly, and their wisdom is extraordinary!
"Wen Ruo, but, originally we had a small number of soldiers, and then divided the troops into two ways, and there were not many soldiers and generals left in Chenliu, the other party's five-way princes, Wen Ruo, this..."Cao Cao really can't bear to let Xun Yu stay in Chenliu alone, in case... He couldn't imagine that Xun Yu was in Cao Cao's eyes, his status was irreplaceable, and he was called the top strategist of my son's house by Cao Cao, and Cao Cao would still rely on Xun Yu for the future hegemony, but if someone else stayed here, Cao Cao was not at ease at all, and Cao Cao was completely embarrassed.
"Lord, you can go with confidence, here, everything is handed over to me, Lu Bu and other thieves want to take my head, but it's not so easy." Xun Yu smiled and comforted Cao Cao, Xun Yu has always been steady and gentle, never public, even if he is full of confidence, he rarely shows it on his face, Cao Cao is most at ease Xun Yu, and similarly, Xun Yu is the most unwilling to have an accident.
"Hao Zhao, Li Jin, Cao Ang, Dian Wei."
"In..."
"Give you 20,000 for four people... No, 30,000 elite soldiers, you must keep the safety of the military division, if the military division has a mistake, I will ask you. Cao Cao hesitated slightly, and finally left 10,000 more elite soldiers, you know, Cao Cao's side, there are not many soldiers left, and it is already a good effort to leave 30,000 to Xun Yu.
"No... We must live up to the trust of the Lord, even if we are ruined, we must save the lives of the military division. ”
These four people are brave and strategic, and even their personal guard commander Dian Wei Cao Cao also stayed, and, don't look at Hao Zhao's young age, he has always been good at the arduous and tragic defense of the city, leaving Hao Zhao behind, this battle, Hao Zhao finally began to show his amazing talent, but it's a pity... On Xun Yu's side, the strength is still too far behind the other party, and what the final result will be, everything depends on whether Cao Cao can capture Xuzhou as soon as possible.
Hao Zhao, Li Jin, Dian Wei, Cao Ang, plus Xun Yu, Cao Cao reluctantly glanced at Xun Yu again, stepped forward and patted Xun Yu's shoulder, and told again, "Wen Ruo, you take care of yourself, if you really can't do it, you will withdraw the troops decisively." ”
Xun Yu nodded, "The lord can go with confidence, I know what to do." ”
After sending Cao Cao away, turning around, Xun Yu was in good spirits, and immediately began to arrange, although there were only 30,000 elite soldiers, but Xun Yu did not plan to shrink in the city at the beginning, all the passes around him, Xun Yu sent people to set traps and ambushes, and the two most dangerous passes also sent two capable generals Hao Zhao and Li Jin!
Cao Cao led his troops to avoid the avenue, shuttled through the woods during the day, followed by the cover of the woods, and at night he quickly whipped up his horses and rushed to attack, no one expected that he only brought 30,000 soldiers and generals to take Xuzhou City.
Dong Yi stayed for three months, even during the Chinese New Year, he did not rush back to the party, and for three months, he continued to fight and command in the Changshan area, because of the proper handling and timely response, coupled with the concerted efforts of the people, although the disaster was not completely suppressed, the situation has obviously improved a lot.
No one thought that Xun Yu held on for three months with 30,000 elite soldiers, and Chen Liu still did not fall.
The reason why Dong Yi decided to leave is because Ma Chao has taken the initiative, since the beginning, after losing fifteen battles in a row, after three months of fierce and bloody battles, Huangfu Song finally fell into passivity, and the 10,000 iron horsemen of the late Han Dynasty who stayed outside the city were also annihilated by Pang De, and now Huangfu Song has less than 5,000 people left in the city to defend it.
The emergency report came from the front, Dong Yi's disaster was also controlled, and the rest of the things were handed over to the Zhen brothers, Dong Yi said goodbye to the villagers and elders, and wanted to leave Changshan to return to the party, not only that, because of the tacit understanding between Guo Jia and Zhang Liao outside the Saiwai, Xianbei was completely stirred up, and Xu Huang's role in staying in Yanmen Pass was not too big, and when he left, Dong Yi also took Xu Huang with him.
Despite all the reluctance, Zhen Mi still returned to the Zhen family, for her, she naturally couldn't be cheeky and chase after the party, but he didn't even mention it, this stupid... As long as Dong Yi speaks, after such a long period of contact between the two, Zhen Mi will naturally not refuse, but Dong Yi is now pretending to be Ma Chao in his heart, naturally, the fifth miss of the Zhen family is unhappy.
