Chapter 307: Cao Yuan (13)
After speaking, Cao Cao threw the "Yuzhou Wen for Yuan Shao" in his hand on the table, and then he asked, "Is there any news of Silang?" Obviously, Cao Cao didn't want to continue to dwell on this issue.
Xun Yu shook his head, "I don't know where Silang is hiding, now we are all about to turn the bottom upside down, but we still haven't found any news related to Silang." After speaking, Xun Yu also sighed,
Now Yuan Shao has been overwhelmed by a large army, but Du Chen, the main figure on Cao Jun's side, is nowhere to be found, which makes Cao Jun very distressed, this Du Chen really doesn't know how to say about him, he actually played so big.
Just when everyone was talking about Du Chen, Du Chen kept sneezing in the deep mountains, knowing that someone was thinking about him, Du Chen also felt that he should go out of the mountain, and after hiding in the mountains for so long, he thought that several wives in the family should be anxious to burn their eyebrows.
In fact, Du Chen guessed wrong, it was Cao Cao who really burned his eyebrows, and now Cao Jun has received news that Yuan Shaoqin led an army of 200,000 troops to Liyang, and is now actively preparing to cross the river.
Looking at the current situation, Du Chen obviously can't count on it, and he doesn't know where Du Chen is hiding, it is really difficult to find him, now, let's prepare to deal with Yuan Shao.
Although Yuan Jun claimed to be 200,000, Cao Cao obviously did not believe that Yuan Shao could really come up with so many soldiers to start a war, and in his opinion, Yuan Shao was able to come up with 100,000 soldiers to fight.
But even if there are only 100,000, it is obviously not comparable to the Cao army, if you fight for comprehensive strength, Yuan Shao is obviously much stronger than the Cao army, although Cao Cao also has more than 100,000 soldiers, but he will never put all the soldiers into the battlefield,
Not to mention how big your territory needs to be defended. But the grain and grass in his hands are difficult to cope with such a huge war.
Fortunately, Du Chen got a lot of grain and grass from Yuan Shao with a deep strategy, otherwise Cao Jun would really have to abandon his weapons and surrender, without food and grass, how to let the soldiers work for themselves.
"The army of Yuan has attacked, what do you have to do?" Cao Cao looked at everyone in the hall coldly. Although Du Chen is not there, the battle is obviously a must-fight.
As soon as Cao Cao's words fell, he heard a lot of remarks that Yuan Jun was invincible, Cao Cao didn't say anything about this, he also knew that Yuan Shao was really powerful, and he also knew it. Among these people, I am afraid that most of them are inextricably linked with Yuan Shao.
Although Cao Cao didn't care about this, he would naturally be upset if he said too much, the purpose of his calling everyone was not to surrender, at this time Cao Cao was somewhat nostalgic for Du Chen, because with Du Chen, he would definitely be able to give himself a good idea,
"That's enough." Cao Cao scolded everyone coldly. He glanced at everyone in the hall, and then said in a deep voice, ", you are here to discuss how to fight against Yuan Shao. It's not for you to persuade Cao to surrender. ”
Cao Cao's words made everyone bow their heads, and at this moment, Xun Yu stepped forward and said, "Why should the lord worry, even if Silang is not here, he has already made a plan. ”
"Now, Zang Ba led a heavy army to the border with Qingzhou. As long as the lord gives the order, the army can attack Qingzhou, and first, it can be used to consolidate the eastern defense line of our army and prevent Yuan's army from attacking Xudu from the east; Second, Yuan Shao can divide his troops against each other. ”
"Secondly. Si Lang ordered people to build White Horse City to choke Yuan Shao's throat, but relying on a White Horse City alone is obviously a bit weak, and we can lead a general to garrison Yanjin, an important ferry, to prevent Yuan's army from crossing the river and driving south. ”
"Three, our army must win over the princes of Liangzhou to stabilize the flanks, and we must not let them deviate at such an important moment."
What Xun Yu said is what needs to be done the most at present, and the three items he said have also been recognized by Cao Cao.
Cao Cao couldn't help nodding after listening to Xun Yu's analysis, but he looked at Xun Yu, and then said in a deep voice: "What Wen Ruo said is good, but Cao wants to personally lead the army to attack Liyang and give Yuan Jun a blow to the head." ”
Cao Cao's tone was full of resoluteness, which made people somewhat afraid to refuse, but imagine that Liyang had stationed more than 100,000 troops, and it was obviously a hasty decision to attack Liyang rashly.
Cao Cao is just a mortal, how can he not be angry when he hears someone scolding his ancestors for three generations, but now it is not a child's play, and attacking Liyang is obviously a bit too risky.
Xun Yu frowned slightly, although Cao Cao's tone was full of resoluteness, but Xun Yu still had to persuade him, "The lord has to think twice, Liyang is where the Yuan army is garrisoned, and it is an important base for the Yuan army, where more than 100,000 Yuan troops are stationed, and I am afraid that a rash attack will cause heavy losses." ”
However, Xun Yu's advice is obviously redundant, Cao Cao is a rather assertive person, especially when he is angry, his decision is obviously more difficult to tamper with, he stared at Xun Yu, and then said in a deep voice: "This matter has its own opinions, Wen Ruo does not need to advise." ”
Xun Yu was about to continue to speak, but when he saw all the anger on Cao Cao's face, he finally chose to keep his mouth shut, the power of his words was obviously still a little weak, if Si Lang was there, he would definitely be able to dissuade the lord.
But now that Du Chen is not here, everything is pressed on Xun Yu's shoulders, there is no way, when Du Chen is there, he is in charge of the overall situation, and Xun Yu is just assisting from the side, so he naturally feels very relaxed, but now it is different, everything needs to be planned by himself, Xun Yu suddenly felt a little tired.
However, Cao Cao is obviously not an indiscriminate person, he stared at Xun Yu, and then said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, it's a matter of importance, how can Cao risk the lives of the soldiers and his own lives, Cao led the soldiers of the White Tiger Battalion to cross the river lightly to contain Yuan Shao, and Wen Ruo You are waiting for Silang to come back in Xuchang, Cao Silang should return to Xuchang City in the near future." ”
Since Cao Cao has his own plans in his heart, Xun Yu will naturally not refuse, although Xun Yu also wants to go with the army, but it is also a difficult task to stick to Xuchang City, especially when Du Chen returns.
However, what Cao Cao said was not wrong at all, Du Chen was indeed about to rush back to Xuchang City, after going out of the mountain, Du Chen learned about Yuan Jun's "Yuzhou Wen for Yuan Shao", although Du Chen did not see this text, but he knew that the war was coming.
In Du Chen's opinion, the war came a little too early, in his opinion, neither Cao Jun nor Yuan Jun was ready for war, but the war actually came so suddenly, which suddenly made Du Chen a little overwhelmed.
However, the only thing that made Du Chen happy was that White Horse City had been built, and this majestic city was enough to block Yuan Jun for a while, so that Cao Jun was fully prepared for battle, and in addition, White Horse City could also make Yuan Shao suffer a big loss, so that Yuan Shao knew what the consequences of annoying Cao Jun were.
Du Chen is now hurrying towards Xuchang City, the war obviously will not wait for him, at this time Du Chen is somewhat annoyed, if he didn't waste so much time in the mountains, how could he miss such an important moment, presumably Cao Jun was already anxious, in order to find himself, in order to prepare for the decisive battle of Cao Yuan.
I want to hurry back to Xuchang City, Cao Jun is full of talents, even if he doesn't think he will not mess up, with Xun Yu here, he will definitely be able to arrange a good situation, but Du Chen is still not very relieved, a qiē thing needs to be understood by himself, otherwise if there is really any accident, it will not be good,
For the battle of Cao Yuan, Du Chen began to deploy early, he didn't want any accidents in this battle, otherwise he would really be sorry for his long-term preparations.
When Du Chen appeared in Xuchang City again, Cao Cao had already led the soldiers of the White Tiger Battalion to battle, and when he saw Du Chen again, Xun Yu's expression was somewhat weird, but no matter what, Du Chen still appeared, although it was a little late, but it was also better
The beauty that does not appear to come.
Xun Yu told Du Chen about his deployment, and Du Chen nodded slightly, he thought well, even if he didn't have himself, Xun Yu could still arrange everything properly, but for Cao Cao's rash attack, Du Chen couldn't help frowning. However, after Du Chen finished reading Yuan Jun's "Yuzhou Wen for Yuan Shao", he couldn't help but start scolding Chen Lin in his heart, for no other reason, he was also hung up by Chen Lin with the title of helping to abuse, although the scolding was not as ruthless as the protagonist Cao Cao, but it obviously made Du Chen indignant.
Seeing Du Chen's expression, Xun Yu naturally knew what Du Chen was worried about, he waved his hand to bring Du Chen back to his senses, and then asked: "The enemy is approaching the city, Silang, you better think about how to deal with Yuan Jun first." ”
Du Chen smiled slightly, his expression was quite confident, he glanced at Xun Yu, and then said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, this matter has been prepared for a long time, Yuan Jun is strong and fights hard with it, our army is obviously not his opponent." ”
"Yuan Shao has at least 100,000 soldiers under his command, and they are well prepared, and our army is obviously in a slight position compared to Yuan's army, so we can only wait for the opportunity to move after being fully prepared." Du Chen said calmly,
Then, Du Chen came to the map, pointed to the direction of Guandu and said, "This is the place where our army and Yuan's army will fight a decisive battle. ”
"Guandu." Looking at the place of Du Chen's finger, Xun Yu said thoughtfully.
Du Chen nodded, and Xun Yu also showed a satisfied expression, Guandu is indeed a good decisive battle location, if the decisive battle is in Guandu, Cao Jun's advantage is bound to increase a lot,
Guandu is not far from Xuchang, so the supply line of Cao's army is bound to be shortened a lot, and the supply line of Yuan's army is bound to increase, which is a burden for Yuan's army, in any case, his advantage is the enemy's disadvantage. (To be continued......)
