Chapter 8: Heroes of the Troubled Times (3)

Cao Cao's meaning is obvious, let him go to Huang Wan, just like heaven has a way to deviate, and hell has no door to vote.

"Yes, yes." Xiahou Yuan also echoed, "Once the sea fishing document is issued to Yuzhou, Huang and Dong will be single-minded, and Meng Dewei will also be in danger." Therefore, it is the right time to oppose Huang to save himself and oppose Dong Qinwang. The major events are established, the moral government is implemented, and the world is in the heart, and by then my Han family will have food to eat, so why worry about Yuzhou? 'The big line is not informal, and the big gift is not small', this move may sacrifice a small number of people, and achieve the righteousness of the whole world. Ah Shao, what are you still hesitating about? ”

"Miaocai, it's not that I'm hesitating, but it's a big matter, and we have to think about it in the long run." He originally wanted to mention the old story of Cao Cao using a five-colored stick to kill the eunuch Jian Shuo's uncle Jian Tu and offend Zhang Rang, but when he saw that both of them were fiercely opposed, he gave up.

"Ah Shao, tell me your best strategy!" Cao Cao urged.

"Hmm. This best policy, I am also inspired by Zixiao, why not come to grab food for disaster relief? In this way, taking food, recruiting troops, and providing disaster relief are not lost in righteousness, but they can also have the best of all three worlds. ”

"Grab food for disaster relief?" Cao Cao thought it was a good move.

"That's right! He Huang Wan can buy people's hearts, but we can't? Let's do it for him! There are a lot of relatives and friends in our state, how can Huang Wan be compared? In the year of the great famine, everyone lacked rice and food. Miaocai, didn't you once abandon your own son because of hunger? ”

Xiahou Yuan's face was red when he said this, although he abandoned his youngest son out of helplessness, but in the end, it was a pain that could never be erased. At that time, no one knew him, and it was because of this that he was noticed and befriended by Cao Cao. Whoever mentions it now, he feels extremely worried.

"Miaocai, don't you mind! I didn't mean anything else. This is a righteous act, and it is absolutely a righteous act that no human can do! What I want to say is that those who are starving, we saved their lives, and we will be grateful to Dade in the future, and we will repay them with death. This kind of good thing, how can Huang Wan be beautiful, and let me and other brothers not die? ”

Xiahou Yuan actually only blamed himself deeply, and he didn't blame Cao Shao, so that as soon as his voice fell, he exclaimed: "Wow! Ah Shao, you've finally figured it out! This reason is actually very simple, Zixiao said earlier, his soldiers have no food, even if there is no such thing, I'm afraid he has to rob it, right? The victims of the disaster were recruited as soldiers, and they also had to eat food, isn't this a disguised disaster relief? ”

Cao Cao got up and paced twice, and said angrily: "Dong Zhuo is rebellious, the Son of Heaven is covered with dust, and those who oppose Dong Zhuo are not anti-Han, but pro-Han!" And I aim to help the Han family and clarify the world. Dong Zhuo and I are already on the same page. The people of the world also hate it to the extreme, and there is only a lack of people who raise their arms and shout, isn't it? I intend to raise the banner of opposition to Dong and form an alliance with various counties and states to discuss Dong Zedong. Therefore, it is necessary for the division of the first brigade to work with Wang Xinghan and compete with Dong Zhuo. Where do the soldiers come from? Naturally, it is these township children gathered by Zixiao. As for what my brother said about Huang Wan, I don't have to worry about it. Huang Wan's scattered soldiers in Tuntian, Yuzhou is extremely empty, one person rises up, then the land of the whole state is not his own, why be afraid? ”

Cao Shao also got up and said, "Since Brother has chosen the best strategy, let's plan well!" He has always respected his brother and believes that Cao Cao is a heroic person. He first made a suggestion that after the matter is completed, we should vigorously provide disaster relief, not recruit too many troops, and fight with a strong enemy, but I am afraid that it will become the beginning of the disaster.

Cao Cao was deeply surprised.

So, the three of them ran wildly all the way and caught up with Cao Ren in the east of Dangxian County. It turned out that Cao Ren was originally hiding in Yanju, and in order to avoid people's eyes, the march was only at night, and according to the line, Pengcheng's army was extremely slow, so he slowed down.

When Cao Ren saw Cao Cao at first sight, he was overjoyed and immediately wanted to give up his command, but Cao Shao stopped him. He didn't want Cao Cao to show up, but once he was defeated, he had nothing to do with it, so he thought he would do something. Just wait for the big thing to be done, and it is not too late for Cao Cao to come over and preside over the overall situation. But where is Cao Cao willing? said that Xiahoudun and others were in charge of Chenliu, and he had nothing to do when he arrived there, and he insisted on not wanting to wait. Cao Shao insisted that he keep it strictly confidential, and only said that he was a strategist Xiahou.

Cao Cao promised, and he carefully examined Cao Shao's entire grain robbery jihua and thought that it was very well planned.

First of all, the timing is good. Huang Wan dismissed the army, Yuzhou was empty, and the army had been sharply reduced from more than 50,000 people in the whole state at the beginning of the year to less than 10,000, and in particular, the elite cavalry with strong mobility and able to fight in a roundabout way had disappeared.

Secondly, the location is good. Xiao County, Zhuqiu, Xiayi, Pei County, and Feng County have no garrison except for a small number of county officials. "Those who are good at fighting, do not worry about victory before thinking about defeat", once they are defeated, they can go all the way through the valley to Chenliu without hindrance, or flee to Jiyin to try a good strategy again.

Moreover, it is not necessary to attack and kill all the officers and men, but to attack from the west and south, and the combat targets can be scared away. Don't be afraid that someone will flee and report the news, Peng Cheng is still a cautious person, and he will never dare to send troops to help if the situation is unknown. The thousands of people in Huang Wantuntian's field had to be used to defend themselves, and the battle was over before he arrived. After the Peixian uprising, no matter how capable he was, he Huang Wan would not be able to organize a large number of combatable troops in a short period of time. Even if there are soldiers, what can he do if he has no food in the protracted distance war? I can only cry out in vain.

Zuihou, once he succeeded in seizing the grain, forced the people to escort him, and quickly went north to occupy Plagy Fong. Just raise the banner of anti-Dong there, spread it all over the world, and it will be supported and responded to from all sides. At that time, it became a righteous act to provide relief to the victims, recruit soldiers, seize food and occupy the city.

However, Jihua couldn't catch up with the changes, and now Cao Shao sighed, at least two points he didn't expect.

First, their own side underestimated the enemy, and they did not expect that the officers and soldiers would resist to the death. According to intelligence analysis, the two people who led the troops in Peng Chengguo were rotten and soft. Peng Cheng's soldiers were even more defeated with one blow, and they dispersed as soon as they were beaten. Cao Ren has always been debauched and flamboyant, and even joked that when he encountered the fierce warriors under him, Xue Li and Xiao Zhuru would be scared! But the result? Seeing that the officers and soldiers were about to be defeated, they resisted fiercely. Although there are only a few hundred people left, they have lasted so long after all.

Moreover, he didn't expect Huang Wan to come so quickly, and he didn't expect that after he came, a large number of Cao Ren's men would be dispersed in a few words, which reminded him of Zhang Zifang, who blew 100,000 soldiers with one flute. Cao Ren's disciple soldiers, who had been in business for a long time, collapsed in an instant so easily. All of them, including Cao Cao, never dreamed of this situation. However, it makes sense now. Cao Ren's subordinates are mostly light warriors, and they all rely on one spirit. This group of people is based in Yuzhou, except for a few sworn friends, they are most afraid of causing trouble to their families and relatives and friends, these are their bottom line. Huang Wan is famous, and using that kind of intimidation to work, he vented them at once, and he didn't collapse?

Cao Shao sighed, slapped his forehead vigorously with his hand and said: "Huang Wan must have come from the water, I knew that this was the case, I should have ambushed a small group of people and horses by the Bianshui River, and when they go ashore, they will be killed suddenly, and they will be captured by me." At the time, this thought flashed to me, but now that I think about it, I am careless. ”

"The victory or defeat of this battle is actually here!" Both of them concluded in extreme frustration, and Yu Lu sighed.
