Wang Cang can also be regarded as Cao Cao's confidant, but the problem is that he has never led the troops seriously, even if he has followed Cao Cao on the expedition a few times, he has not dealt with the big-headed soldiers much, and the soldiers have no concept of what songs they like to sing and listen to. Coupled with the rush of time, the finished "From the Army" inevitably lacked fighting spirit, which made Cao Cao very dissatisfied. Cao Cao Xin said that since this matter was brought up by Xun, maybe he could grasp the morale of the army on Cheng Dù, so it was better to let him do it.

Liu Xie's play, so Shixun lined up everyone, stepped up the steps, lifted his skirt and waited to worship. Liu Xie said: "Excuse me." It is Qing Ke who can make a song in the army for me. Shixun's knees had just bent, and when he heard this, he straightened up again, and then he poked his head to look east, and sure enough, the soldiers who participated in the review were still lined up neatly, waiting with the audience.

Since his poems became famous, he respected his identity and no longer chanted...... Plagiarism, a work of weekday remuneration, can be hidden. On the one hand, there are theoretically no professional full-time poets in these years, including Kong Rong, Wang Cang and others, and the number of works is not too much - in fact, the first full-time poet is probably Cao Zhi, when he was confined to his own fiefdom, he could only rely on writing poems to express his emotions and relieve his sorrows; On the other hand, Shi Xun knows that there is no need for more good goods, and if there are more, the price will fall, like Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty made tens of thousands of poems in his life, so there is a fart? Who but a professional researcher would be so masochistic as to read his poems?

But he has a few articles in his pocket at any time, just in case he needs them, if he can't hide from them. If you can't spell a good work for a while, it is inevitable that the true face of the "poet" will be exposed. Or be ridiculed for "being a talented man". Especially when he mentioned the military song to Cao Cao the day before yesterday, of course he had prepared in advance, otherwise Cao Cao said: "This plan is very good, Qing can do it on the spot." "So what to do?

So although he didn't expect Cao Cao to call himself to the stage to compose a poem today, his own preparations were quite sufficient, and he pretended to twist his beard and muttered for a while, and then said to Liu Xie: "The minister has a little gain, and Qin is dedicated to the supreme." Then he said:

"Men are born in the world. and strong as a marquis. There is a meritorious deed in war, but only can you keep the old one. Luli sent me off, and my relatives embraced Zhou. Spotted white is on the top list, and the wine is drunk. A thousand gold buys a horse whip, and a hundred gold is loaded with a knife head. Swear to win the eternal praise with a blood!

"Towards the East Gate Camp, go to the Heyang Bridge at dusk. The sunset shines on the flag. The horse roared and the wind swayed. Pingsha Liewan curtain, the army is like a leopard. The bright moon hangs in the middle of the sky, making the night lonely. The sorrowful eggplant moved, and the strong man was not arrogant. Ask me who the general is? It must be Huo Yao!

"Defend the border and reopen the frontier, from winter to spring. Today, he is a hero, and he is a teacher. When a family. Siyi will be alone. I have a tiger warrior, and I have heard it bravely. Draw the sword and hit the great wilderness, and the herd of horses is grazing. Swear to fight for China, and the pride lasts forever! ”

After three paragraphs, Cao Cao couldn't help but stroke his palms and said: "Zhuang Zi Shiye!" Immediately turned to Liu Xie: "The minister, please compose a song with these three soundtracks." to teach the sergeants. ”

It is the blueprint for Xun's plagiarism this time, and it is "Poetry History" Du Fu's "Later Out of the Plug". Du Fu once wrote "The Front Out of the Stopper" 9 and "The Back Out of the Stopper" 5. It is Xun who selected the third, but in the specific words and rhymes, some modifications have been made according to the habits of this era. In particular, the original intention of Du Fu's entire group of poems was to condemn Tang Xuanzong's reckless military force, and sympathize with the hard work and sorrow of the soldiers.

In the first article, the two sentences "Recruiting to Jimen, the army cannot stay", because the meaning of the expedition to the northern border and the crusade against Hulu is too obvious and lacks universality - Cao Cao is still fighting a civil war - and then the ending sentence of "The young man has no gift, look at Wu Hook with a smile" was changed to "Swear to win the eternal praise with a blood", composing an ode to the war. In the second article, "Towards the East Gate Camp, Dusk on the Heyang Bridge" also contains regional names, but it is relatively vague and can not be changed; It's a pity that the famous "Sunset Banner, Ma Mingfeng Xiaoxiao" was forced to change to "Wind Fluttering" because of the difference in Han and Tang pronunciations, and it felt a little worse. The third article mentions the "hero master", ostensibly talking about the Son of Heaven, but in fact, he is praising Cao Cao, I believe Lao Cao can hear it; The concluding sentence was originally "swear to open the Xuanming North, hold on to serve my monarch", which not only has the meaning of opening up the territory and expanding the territory, but also praises the emperor, and the honor is changed to "swear to fight for China, and the pride will last forever", which blurs the purpose of the war, and changes the object of the soldiers' allegiance from "Jun" to "country".

Of course, it is impossible to produce the concept of the national defense force in these years, but in any case, if the Son of Heaven is praised too much, he himself is not happy, and Cao Cao may not be happy.

As a result, Shi Xun's "works" were unanimously understood, and Du Yu immediately composed music. Ten days later, the Cao family's army sang "Men are born in the world, and strong are marquis", and embarked on the journey of the Northern Expedition with great vigor and vigor.

In fact, although the beginning of autumn had passed at this time, the rice and wheat in the fields had not yet been cut, and the taxes had just been collected by 20%, which could theoretically not support a medium- and long-term operation of tens of thousands of troops. But on the one hand, the Cao family's agriculture has been relatively good in recent years, and there is still some surplus grain in the warehouse, and on the other hand, Xun Yu, Zhong Xuan and others are sitting in the rear, and they will continue to transport the grain they have just collected to the front line. Especially Xun Wenruo, his scheduling and replenishment capabilities are absolutely first-class in these years, and no one can match them, and he believes that the Yuan family's strategists in Hebei are all engaged in logistics together, even if they don't drag each other back, they may not be able to reach Xun Yu's high level.

This is also one of the reasons why Cao Cao was in a hurry to go on the Northern Expedition - I have good logistics and no worries about grain, and your side may not be able to complete the repair before I cross the Yellow River.

The Cao family still sent troops from three directions. Cao Cao personally led an army of 70,000 to Baima first, and waited for less than two days, Zhong Miao released hundreds of ferries that had been prepared long ago from the upper reaches of the Yellow River, and Cao's army crossed the river almost without hindrance, occupying the bridgehead of Yuan Shao's last southern invasion - Liyang. Cao Cao temporarily sat in Liyang, and made the general Zhang He lead his army north to attack Neihuang. Once the inner yellow is removed, the flanks are secured. The army can surging towards Yecheng.

The eastern front was still led by Zang Ba, and Dong Zhonglang commanded Cheng Yu to kill Jinan from the east and south. At this time, Yuan Tan's main force had all shrunk to the north of Jishui, and only Wang Xiu was still holding on to Dongpingling, the capital of Jinan, to the south of Jishui - Cao Cao had sent envoys to recruit Wang Xiu several times, but they were all refused. The main strategic goal of Zang Ba and Cheng Yu is to contain Yuan Tan so that he can't go all out to aid Yecheng - or you can simply give up all of Qingzhou.

Li Dian was in Lin Xi and Cai Yang was in Dangyin, cooperating with Cao Cao and cautiously advancing to the north. The goal is still to get a mouthful. But they didn't plan to directly block the Fukou Sect, not only that, but even Cao Ren and Lejin who joined the party did not mean to block the western end of the Koukou Sect at all.

At this time, Cao Cao set up a new theater of operations in Taiyuan, Hedong, and Xihe, and transferred Xiahoudun, who was originally garrisoned in the south of Yanzhou, as the governor - because at this time he completely occupied the offensive, and the land of Yanzhou was no longer afraid of being invaded by the Yuan family - with Wang Rou as the Taiyuan county guard, Zheng Hun as the Xihe county guard, Sima Yi as the Hedong county guard and participated in the Xiahoudun military. Xiahoudun has basically occupied the entire county of Taiyuan. However, Yuan General Zhu Ao has not yet been awarded, and he is still entrenched in the west of the county, cutting off Gongsun Zan and Zhang Yan's westward retreat. Xihe County is only half of it, and the north is where the Southern Xiongnu royal court is located, and it was semi-independent when Gao Gan ruled.

Xiahou has two new goals, one is to defeat Zhu Ao. Completely pacify Taiyuan, strive to break into Changshan country through Jingcheng, and join forces with Gongsun Zan and Zhang Yan, and the second is to make Guo Yi go north to collect Yanmen. In the south, as long as Gao Gan and Guo Yuan were blocked, they did not plan to attack Cao Ren from the north and south of the Hyun clan.

Cao Cao hoped that Yuan Shao would transfer Gao Gan and Guo Yuan back to Hebei through Fukou. He was not afraid that Yuan Jun would gather more and more. Because there are many soldiers, the pressure on logistics will also increase. Besides, Yuan Tan's Qingzhou soldiers lost Qingzhou, and Gao Gan's Bingzhou soldiers lost Qingzhou, and they all became rootless grass, so how much combat power can be left? The result of the uneven balance of good and bad in an army is inevitably that low morale drags down high morale, and it is impossible to reverse - the amount of water stored in a bucket is always determined by the shortest barrel, and has nothing to do with the longest barrel.

He took 400 troops and more than 1,000 foot soldiers to escort relevant weapons and materials, and was almost the last to cross the Yellow River, and then entered Liyang City to meet Cao Cao. Xun You, Guo Jia, Liu Ye, Dong Zhao and other strategists gathered together to discuss, and this time Cao Cao also deliberately brought Jia Xu a little, and Chen Qun also solved the matter of Qingzhou - Li Tiao had entered Jinan to defect to Wang Xiu, Wang Ying surrendered and rebelled, and was killed by Yin Li - rushed to restore his life.

When everyone saw Shixun coming in, they all stood up and saluted—in terms of the name of the court, Shixun was second only to Jia Xu, and above the rest of the people—Shixun asked straight to the point: "Do you think that Yuan Shao is willing to go out of the city to fight?" ”

To the south of Yecheng is a large plain, and the morale of the Yuan army has not recovered and the grain is insufficient, so according to Shixun's estimate, he probably does not dare to come out. However, Jia Xu said: "If Yuan Benchu was guarding Yecheng, he would be put to death, why should he be in Yijing in the past? We expect that he will guard it with a famous general, so as to contain our division, and he will send the army out of the city as a horn. Finger swiped on the map, pointing to the west of Yecheng.

Yecheng is built on the back of Zhangshui, forty miles away in its west, there is the tributary sewage of Zhangshui, where the sewage and Zhangshui are sandwiched, there is a small city, called Sewage City. According to the judgment of Xun, Guo and others, Yuan Shao is likely to garrison the main force in the sewage city, use sewage and Zhangshui to build fortifications, and strive to fight Cao Cao for a long time.

Shi Xun scratched his chin and secretly agreed with their opinion. He couldn't help but think that the terrain near the foul city was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and Yuan Shao still had tens of thousands of male soldiers, if he defended it, Gao Gan and Guo Yuan would come to the aid from Bingzhou, and the morale would be low, and the fortifications themselves would be able to play a certain role in peace of mind, so it would be very difficult for the Cao army to defeat it in a short period of time. Only by trying to find a way to conquer Yecheng, Yuan Shao will lose his roots, and the army's morale will be chaotic, so he can take the opportunity to attack it.

It's just that who will Yuan Shao leave to guard Yecheng? Is it a trial, or is it frustration? These two generals are also good defenders, and according to his observation when he went to Ye the day before yesterday, Yecheng is tall and majestic, even if he has ten times the number of troops, it is not so easy to take...... Not to mention that the number of new trebuchets he brought this time is not large, and the accuracy is even less safe, even if it is replaced with the same amount of artillery, it will be difficult to collapse the city wall? If Cao's army is under the fortified city for a long time, I am afraid that the war will be repeated again, so how can it be good?
