Chapter 152: Walking on the Road Forward
Cao Cao's power is growing like a snowball, and Li Yu's contribution to it definitely accounts for a large proportion, as Cao Song said, Li Yu has paid more effort than others, it is undeniable that Li Yu made the decision to help Cao Cao when he knew the result, but as time went by, he was more sincere to Cao Cao; Duan Xuan was brought to Li Yu, and like many people, he was shocked by Li Yu's youth, handsomeness, and lofty instruments, this was Li Yu's first impression of Duan Xuan; "In Xiaqiao County, Li Yu, Li Huaide! I've seen General Ning Ji! Li Yu smiled and saluted Duan Xuan to express his kindness; Duan Xuan's official position is General Ning Ji, which is the title of a miscellaneous general, and the orthodox general titles of the Han Dynasty only have the titles of general, hussar general, chariot general, four expeditions (expedition to the south, expedition to the north, expedition to the east, expedition to the west), four towns general and a few other dozens of general ranks, at this time, when the official position has not yet flooded, the title of a miscellaneous general is also good!
Duan Xuan was stunned for a moment and also replied: "Mr. Jiuwen's name!" Today's fate is really worthy of its name! β
"Huh! It's all in vain! I'm just an ordinary Li Yu! It seems that a certain pretending B man has started to put up poos again; Accidentally, he stepped on the stone in the ground and almost got a dog to chew on, so he had to shrug his shoulders: "Look! I'm really ordinary! β
"Uh...", Duan Xuan had nothing to say;
"That's it! I won't say much more about polite words! Let's save on the things that are touted by each other! General Duan! I want to know one thing now, do you plan to continue to help Li Dao and Guo Yan resist to the end? Or abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and come under the command of my lord Cao Cao! Li Yu looked at Duan Xuan with blazing eyes; Duan Xuan bowed his head and was silent, surrendering Cao Cao is definitely more promising than under Li Dao and Guo Yan, but the loyalty plot rooted in their hearts is still very serious, Duan Xuan can't care about this, and his conscience doesn't allow him not to care, to be honest, Li Dao and Guo Yan treat him well, at least give him land, give him military horses, and give him glory!
"Do you know what it looks like today? General Duan? The corners of Li Yu's mouth curled up slightly, and he asked an inexplicable word; Duan Xuan was stunned, and then: "The big forces include the Yuan family Shuangxiong, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu brothers, Liu Yan in Shudi, Tao Qian in Xuzhou, Ma Teng and Han Sui in Xiliang, Shangdang, and Zhang Yang in Hanoi; Gongsun Zan of Youzhou, Liu Biao of Jingzhou, and Cao Gong of Yanzhou and... General Li and General Guo of Chang'an; Small forces, like Lu Bu and countless others! β
"Let's not talk about small forces, basically there is no chance! Let's talk about those who have 'opportunities'! The Yuan family is a double hero, Yuan Shu! As early as when the princes were begging for Dong, I knew that he was not far from death, arrogant and arrogant! It's not the Lord! Yuan Shao! The outside is wide and the inside is taboo, and you don't need to use your relatives, and you will bring disaster upon yourself! These two can't make a big deal! β
"Liu Yan, there is a dry bone in the grave! Ma Teng and Han Sui, it's not a matter of worrying about being biased! Gongsun Zhan is good at fighting foreign wars, but he can't fight civil wars, if we don't have to do it, he will be cleaned up by Yuan Shao sooner or later! β
"Shangdang Zhangyang, what do you think he can praise? Chang'an's Li Dao and Guo Yan will be wiped out in a snap of a finger! Xuzhou Tao Qian... Sooner or later I will destroy them! Look at the situation today! When only Cao Gong can achieve great things! Now there is an opportunity in front of you, on one side is the glory of flowers, on the other side is the butcher's knife stick, which one can only be up to you! β
Li Yu despised all the princes in the world, and then raised Cao Cao, so that Duan Xuan understood some truths, and then pursued him with victory, making him shake: "I know you are thinking, if you surrender like this, you will lose your integrity and lose your loyalty!" But! There is also such a sentence - a good minister chooses the master to do things, and a good bird chooses a tree to perch! If you don't want to spend your life like this, then..."
Duan Xuan opened his mouth: "I...", the good minister chooses the master and the good bird chooses the wood to perch, these two sentences made him loosen up, but that little bit of reserve has not been broken; "Don't worry! There are many generals in our Cao army, and we won't look down on you just because you are a general! Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the tens of thousands of soldiers under your command! Come on! Start a new era with us! Li Yu looked at him feverishly, his eyes sincere; Alasββ! Under the vow! But... I have one condition! Duan Xuan sighed, he is the one who betrays the master today!
"Please! As long as I can wait for the lord to agree, I will try my best to satisfy you! βοΌβ Without him! I just hope you don't take us with you when you attack Chang'an! I... Don't want to attack the old master! The loyalty in Duan Xuan's heart is still there, and he can only do his best to help Li Dao and Guo Yan;" What is my Dao, General Duan's loyalty! This matter is something that the lord will agree to! Don't worry, we won't let your Xiliang army kill your comrades! β
Nailed it! Everything is so simple, but it is dangerous and abnormal, Duan Xuan Toucheng is the trend of the times, and it is also a last resort, in the case of a war without fighting, Tongguan is declared lost!
Li Yu gave Xiahou Yuan a look proudly, and handed over the rest to Xiahou Yuan, he is the chief general of the Chinese army, not an ornament; Xiahou Yuan watched Li Yu walk to his carriage with admiration, and then helped Duan Xuan up: "Don't be sad!" General Duan! You'll be my colleague from now on! Wouldn't it be beautiful for everyone to work together to create a better future? β
"Don't blame the general! Zhongming is just sad for a while! ", Duan Xuan lowered his head and said; Hahaha! Let's go! Let's get in! In the future, Zhongming will call me a wonderful talent! Xiahou Yuan laughed a few times and took the lead in riding his horse towards Guannai; Duan Xuan then followed, and a drop of crystal water dripped in the air, which was soon evaporated by the scorching sunlight; 50,000 Xiliang Xiao rides, there is no need to cut at all, because they only need a little training to become elite! The strength of Cao's army also rose sharply because of the increase of 50,000 military horses; Walk on the path β get an erection all the way! Well... Perhaps this is the case with Cao Cao's development history; β¦β¦ Dividing line
"Kill ββ!" , the thunderous shouting and killing sound was gripping, and the Xiliang army under Zhang Ji was horrified to find that there was another military horse in front of them; There were no even the usual fighting generals and shouting, 10,000 military horses went straight into Zhang Ji's army, and after the powerful impact collision, both sides were damaged, and the two military horses were entangled together; This is Cao Hong's 10,000 horses, before this, Zhang Ji's uncle and nephew have encountered Huang Zhong, Cai Yang's head-on attack, and then Li Dian's sneak attack, this time there is another Cao Hong, in this day Zhang Ji's Xiliang military horses did not rest, did not eat, some were just endless battles, and some people couldn't hold on!
"Knock knock! ~~~", the rumbling war drums came from all directions, Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu were desperate!
They are surrounded! The 60,000 troops and horses led by Cao Cao were all foot troops, and the marching speed was slow, so Xu Rongcai designed to delay the marching speed of Zhang Ji's army, forcing them backwards little by little unconsciously, and finally fell into the trap; The encirclement of 100,000 people makes me dizzy when I look at it; With such a disadvantage, Zhang Xiu could only protect Zhang Ji and rush out from the weak spot when the encirclement had not yet formed a sufficient thickness..."General Xu! Don't you have to chase it? Brother Hua Xiong asked, grinding his fists; No, you don't! Zixiong! You are the number one warrior in Kansai, these people should be persuaded to surrender! I think it works better! Xu Rong smiled, he didn't care about Zhang Xiu's stay or not, but cared about the people who were surrounded, and it was the most important thing to lose less military horses and take these people; Ladies and gentlemen! I'm Hua Xiong! Drop your weapon! Hands up in surrender! is your only way out...", well! This sentence is familiar to everyone, but Brother Hua Xiong, the signboard of the first warrior in Kansai, obviously still works, many people surrendered as soon as he came forward, and the rest gradually surrendered; So far... All the forces of the Xiliang Army on the periphery of Chang'an were swept away... The next thing is the tripartite alliance, which will take Chang'an directly! King Qin's rescue! Such a big deal!
