Let's say that Xiahoudun ran all the way to the Baishui River, and when he saw that the water in the Baishui River was very shallow, he was immediately overjoyed. I thought: Liu Bei Xiao'er, when Lao Tzu crosses the river, the rescue soldiers will definitely break your body into ten thousand pieces. The army was ordered to quickly cross the river to the north and join the prime minister's army. Cao Jun heard the order to cross the river one after another, and for a while the war horses neighed, and the sound of flowing water crossing the river was loud. But when Cao Jun crossed the river halfway, he suddenly heard the deafening sound of thunder upstream, and his ears were not in a hurry, and the monstrous flood was flowing downstream, like the galloping momentum of ten thousand horses, Cao Jun was not in a hurry to escape, and most of the soldiers in the water were washed away by the flood. How could a flood suddenly come from the upper reaches? ”。

Li Dian was also taken aback, wiped the cold sweat off his forehead with his hand, and thought about it; "General, do you remember the past when Han Xin went out of the customs and flooded the waste hill?"

Xiahoudun understood: "Do you mean that Liu Bei followed Han Xin's example and used sandbags to block the river to gather water in the upper reaches of the Baishui River, wanting to flood our army?" ”

Li Dian nodded, "That's exactly what it means!" ”

"General, what Mancheng said makes a lot of sense! For the sake of today, it is better to quickly order the army to go downstream to find a place with shallow water flow and cross the river quickly! Lejin persuaded.

Xiahoudun nodded in agreement, "Pass my order, and the whole army will advance to the lower reaches of Lu!" ”

Cao Jun walked all the way down the Baishui River to the lower reaches of Lu, and after walking for half an hour, the sergeants were already sleepy and tired. Suddenly, the soldiers in front shouted: "Found it, found it!" General, you can cross the river here! ”

When the generals heard this, they rushed forward, and they went into the water to try, and the river was very shallow, and people and horses could wade through. Xiahou was overjoyed and shouted, "All the troops quickly cross the river!" Don't hesitate! ”

Before the words fell, I only heard a thunderous roar in my ears: "Xiahou Xiao'er is leaving, your grandfather Zhang Fei is here!" In the darkness, I couldn't see each other's appearance clearly, and I only heard a group of people and horses coming not far away, shouting and killing loudly. As the first general, holding an eight-foot spear, he rushed over first, and where he passed, Cao's army was invincible and unstoppable.

"General, cross the river quickly! I'll break it off! Li Dian shouted, waved his long knife, and greeted him with a group of men and horses! Melee with Zhang Fei's army! blocked Zhang Fei's way! Cao Jun took the opportunity to cross the river one after another and fled in the wilderness. Li Dian and Zhang Fei fought for 30 rounds, and their physical strength gradually ran out! I don't think it's good, if I continue to fight like this, I have to lose my life here today. So with all his strength, Zhang Fei saw that Li Dian's move was fierce, so he hurriedly avoided it. Seeing Zhang Fei retreating, Li Dian took the opportunity to wave his whip and cross the river with a leaping horse!

Zhang Fei saw that he was about to catch up, only to see a young general step forward and pull Zhang Fei's reins, Zhang Fei turned around, but it was Liu Bei's adopted son Liu Feng.

"Feng'er, what are you doing here?"

"Third uncle, don't chase after the poor, have you forgotten the instructions of the military advisor? Hurry up and go upstream to meet your father, it's a big deal! ”

Zhang Fei then remembered Zhuge Liang's entrustment, "Hahaha, I forgot about the sex I killed for a while!" If you hadn't reminded me, I would have missed a big deal! Okay, give the order, assemble the whole army and rush to the upper reaches of the Baishui River! Zhang Fei listened to Liu Feng's advice and withdrew his troops and left. Zhang Fei went up the river to join Liu Bei's army, crossed the river, and went straight to Fancheng. Let's not talk about it for now.

It is said that Xiahoudun received the help of Li Dian to get rid of Zhang Fei's pursuit and was able to lead the army to calmly cross the Baishui River and go all the way north. After a day of returning to Wancheng, at this time Cao Cao's main force was stationed in Wancheng, Xiahou saw Cao Cao coming, and wept bitterly and told Cao Cao how Liu Bei was not a thing, how he suffered a big loss, how the army lost a lot, and said tears! It really smells sad, and the listener sheds tears! Xiahoudun was Cao Cao's confidant and relative, and it is said that Cao Cao's grandfather Cao Teng was a eunuch and could not have children. Cao Cao's father, Cao Song, was the child adopted by Cao Teng, and it was very popular in the Eastern Han Dynasty for eunuchs to adopt other people's children as heirs, which was recognized in the society at that time, of course, they were generally very powerful eunuchs. And Cao Teng is a great eunuch who is favored by the emperor. Therefore, Cao Cao's father Cao Song was not originally surnamed Cao, but surnamed Xiahou, and was a child of the Xiahou family, so Cao Cao was actually the child of the Xiahou family, and Cao Cao's subordinates Xiahou Tang and Xiahou Yuan were actually Cao Cao's relatives. And the children of the Xiahou family are indeed very good, and they gave Cao Cao a lot of help after Cao Cao raised his army, so Cao Cao relied on them very much.

After Xiahoudun finished crying, Cao Cao comforted him and persuaded him not to go to his heart. Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, so you don't have to mind! turned around, and at this time, the important generals under Cao Cao in the hall were all there. Cao Cao's crushing defeat in the third battle with Liu Bei woke him up, and he found that there was a bad mood spreading in his army—pride and complacency. Cao Cao knew that since defeating Yuan Shao and pacifying the north. This kind of pride and complacency has been spreading among Cao's army, especially after the defeat of Ma Chao, this mood has spread to almost the entire army, and as an outstanding military commander, Cao Cao knows very well that this is extremely dangerous. If left unchecked, this will bring even greater harm to Cao's army. Thinking so in his heart, Cao Cao felt the need to remind his subordinates.

"Ladies and gentlemen, since the beginning of the year, our army and Liu Bei's army have fought three battles in a row, and all three battles have failed! This surprised me! Could it really be that Liu Bei has become stronger? Too strong for us to overcome? Or is it that his little doll's military advisor really has the talent of heaven and earth, and the unpredictable skills. Make it difficult for our army to defeat him? Cao Cao looked down at the generals in the hall, and everyone didn't speak. Cao Cao then continued: "I don't think so, I don't think the problem is in others, but in our own body, we underestimate the enemy!" Ladies and gentlemen, in the art of war, if you want to defeat the enemy, you must first put yourself in an invincible position, so that the enemy has no chance, and then think about how to defeat the enemy! In the past, when our army fought, the generals did not be careless, trembling to analyze the opponent, carefully studying, and formulating a perfect battle plan, and then sent troops to fight a decisive battle with the enemy, so although we have a small army, because we are well prepared and well-planned, we often achieve victory! Is this providential? I don't think so, it's our effort. But since we defeated Yuan Shao and eliminated Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan, I found that many people in our army have become complacent. I think I am invincible, I think I am invincible, I think the world is peaceful! The army is not good at training, the battle is not good at fighting, and there are not a few people who drink heavily all day long! Ladies and gentlemen, although we have pacified the north, there are still many people in the world who have not submitted to us! Sun Quan in Jiangdong, Liu Biao in Jingzhou, Liu Zhang in Yizhou, Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, and even Ma Chao and Han Sui who have been defeated by us many times, but have not been destroyed. They're all staring at us! As soon as we have the slightest slackness, they will rise up and tear us apart. Soldiers, there is still a long way to go to pacify the world! I hope you guys will recognize! Draw lessons from these failures, reflect on yourself, and don't make similar mistakes again! ”

When all the generals in the hall heard Cao Cao's words, they all bowed their heads and were silent, full of shame. Xiahoudun, Cao Ren was even more red-faced and ashamed.

Cao Cao saw that the role of the warning had been achieved, and he didn't want to hit his subordinates too much and hurt the hearts of the generals, so he hurriedly smiled and said: "Okay, victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, and you don't have to worry too much." But Liu Bei's guy is really hateful, hurting my beloved generals one after another, is it tolerable or unbearable? ”

The generals were immediately filled with righteous indignation and demanded to send troops to attack Liu Bei. At this time, the soldiers came to report, and Liu Bei led the army to flee to Fancheng.

Xun Yu hurriedly got up and knelt down: "Prime Minister, Fancheng is adjacent to Jingzhou Prefecture and Xiangyang County, it seems that Liu Bei wants to join forces with Liu Biao and form horns against each other to fight against our army." If Liu Bei is really allowed to occupy Fancheng and form a line with Xiangyang, Jingzhou will be difficult to shake! Please send troops quickly and pursue Liu Bei! He must not be allowed to occupy Fancheng! ”

Cao Cao was about to agree, but the counselor outside the door came to report, and Liu Cong, the pastor of Jingzhou, sent a messenger to present a surrender document! Everyone** surprised! It's really "stepping on iron shoes and finding nowhere to go, and it takes no effort to get them"!
