Chapter Ninety-Six: Qingzhou Vanguard Army
What does Yuan Shao need most at this time? Ally! He was far from being an opponent of Yuanshu's coalition forces, and he desperately needed a reliable ally to give him psychological comfort, and a military share, even a small ally was enough to cheer him up;
·········· Dividing line
Xuchang City···· Time Goes Forward...
The senior cadres of Cao Ying were distressed together, they were too carried away, and this is the end!
Li Yu pleaded guilty for the first time: "The fault of this matter lies with me!" Without comprehensive consideration, it attracted Yuan Shu's hatred and army! I hope the Lord will punish him! ”
Cao Cao waved his hand and signaled: "Huaide doesn't need to blame himself, I am also responsible for this matter, in short, deal with the past first!" ”
"Yuan Shu's soldiers are in full swing, but Huainan soldiers are few in war, and there is no elite, so I suggest that the enemy is outside Xuchang County, and then make plans!" , Xun Yu got up and said;
The unstable foundation is Cao Cao's biggest drawback at present, not only is it a problem for Yuan Shu, but he also has to worry about the internal affairs of Yanzhou, which is really a headache!
Xun Yu's suggestion was already the best strategy for now, Cao Cao got up and paced, and suddenly paused;
"Where is Xiahoudun!" , Cao Cao shouted; Xiahou stepped out vigorously, hugged his fists and saluted: "The end will be!" ”
"Order you to lead 50,000 Qingzhou troops to meet Yuan Shu!" , Cao Cao ordered; "No!" , Xiahou was ordered, just took a few steps out and turned back: "Lord..."
Cao Cao: "Huh? ”
"This... Can you send a resourceful man to help me... For example..." Xiahoudun said hesitantly, but his eyes were staring at Li Yu, and Cao Cao also understood that Xiahoudun was a sign of lack of confidence;
Not only Xiahoudun, but even he himself has no confidence, this is different from the past, this is a war to defend the land, the opponent is Yuan Shu, who is strong and strong, and the scale of the war is not small;
This battle was not fought by the princes, there were still people to share it at that time, and now they can only rely on themselves;
Xiahoudun did not lead an army of more than 10,000 people to fight, and his experience was impossible to talk about, and for a while he could trust except Cao Cao, that is, Li Yu, who taught him a lot;
Li Yu is also up and down in his heart, let him talk about it, engage in some intrigues, play agricultural production or something, he can still rely on a little so-called experience to do it, and he is also a big girl in a sedan chair on this march - the first time!
Looking at Cao Cao and Xiahoudun's sincere eyes, how could Li Yu say a word, so he had to rush up!
"In the next wish!" , Li Yu's heroic promise, that momentum is really a bit of a wind and a cold water;
50,000 Qingzhou army foot soldiers are neatly ready to go, on the high platform, Xiahoudun and Li Yu stand on it, Li Yu's current identity is the main bookkeeper of the march, responsible for grain and grass scheduling, making suggestions and other work, and the most important thing is to get ideas for Xiahoudun;
Xiahoudun shouted in a deep voice: "Yuzhou Yuan Shu is coming!" Want to capture Xuchang! Do you promise? Maybe he was too nervous, and the words of mobilizing morale were said by Xiahoudun dryly, and Li Yu shook his head when he heard it;
Sure enough, there was little reaction below, and the momentum did not rise, Xiahoudun was embarrassed and looked at Li Yu for help;
Li Yu handed him a reassuring look: "Yuan Rang, learn a little, you have to know what they need, and you can get the greatest harvest by prescribing the right medicine!" ”
Li Yu walked to the front of the stage, Wentian Changjian was in front of him, his body leaned forward slightly, Wentian Sword was in his hand, and Qingzhou Yellow Turbans were all staring sideways;
Li Yu: "I've been busy for three months!" What have we been planting grain and grass day and night for the past three months? It's just a mouthful of food and clothing! You have been hiding in Tibet and fighting in several states for seven or eight years! For what? It's just a piece of land where you can live in peace and well! ”
"Cao Gong Xiande, accept us! But there are still many people who don't like us! Because we are thieves! If you are a thief one day, you will be treated as a thief for the rest of your life! Li Yu's voice was stern, maybe many people didn't hear it clearly, but everyone who could hear it clearly blushed;
"Yuzhou Yuan Shu! It's just to beg the thief! He will destroy the food we have worked so hard to plant! Drive us out of the land of Xuchang! Kill our loved ones! Tell me! How are you going to do that? ", incendiary things, Li Yu can be said to be handy, and he has become more and more skilled;
"Fight! War! Battle!····", the majestic shout thundered Xuchang City, the morale reached the extreme, the psychology of the Yellow Turban Army was completely captured by Li Yu, and they didn't want to live like a lost dog, they had no choice but to fight!
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Yu pulled out the Heavenly Sword, symbolizing the long sword of the Qingzhou Army: "Go out!" ”
"Knock Knock Knock !!" , the sound of war drums rose up, and with neat steps, the Qingzhou Army, which was strong and sharp, stepped out of the march;
Xiahoudun looked at Li Yu with admiration: "Sir... Cattle! Thinking of Li Yu's words, Xiahoudun himself felt his blood boiling, and stretched out his thumb to express his admiration;
Li Yu smiled, and was worried: "Although it is against Yuan Shu's army, slowing down their march and waiting for the lord's army, our burden is still very heavy, and what worries me the most is that we only have three days of food!" Grain and grass are our worst enemies! ”
Speaking of this, Li Yu couldn't help sighing, and Xiahou was also worried, their lives were tight, this was still without a war, once the war started, the amount of grain and grass consumed would not be so calculated, and he would increase geometrically;
"Forget it! Don't spread the word about this matter, let's talk about it first! Li Yu shook his head and took the lead in walking to the carriage and followed the Qingzhou army, until now he has not learned to ride a horse, he can only ride a carriage, which has also become his characteristic...
········· Dividing line
The situation in the world took a sharp turn for the worse, and the emergence of the Xuzhou coalition immediately aroused the great attention of Cao Cao's group...
"They are a false way to destroy the enemy, and they want to strangle us and others!" , Guo Jia said: "Cao Gong occupies Yanzhou, the geographical location is good, Tiger Jing, Xu Erzhou, Tao Qian of Xuzhou can't sit still, he wants to take advantage of Cao Gong's unstable foothold to strangle Cao Gong!" ”
"That... According to the view of filial piety, what should I do? Cao Cao asked;
"Respond to them! Aren't they under the banner of King Qin? Send soldiers and horses to act with them, so that Cao Gong can occupy the righteousness, once they attack the lord, it is treacherous, and it is not too late to clean them up when the time comes, and this army can also play a role in monitoring them! Guo Jia said decisively;
At Guo Jia's suggestion, the two brothers Cao Ren and Cao Hong led 10,000 troops to Taishan, Yanzhou to meet the alliance...
Before Cao Ren went to the alliance, the Xuzhou coalition army was declared broken, followed by the mutual attack and killing of the Kwantung princes, forming two factions led by Yuan's brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu.
When a letter of alliance was delivered to Yuan Shao's hands, he was overjoyed, plus Liu Biao of Jingzhou, who was quite suppressed by Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao's group tripled from his own alone, and the "Shao forces" united by Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, and Liu Biao fought together, and the "Shu forces" of Yuan Shu, Tao Qian, and Gongsun Zhan...
