Chapter 24: The Smiling Face on the Boundary Monument

As the saying goes, there are people outside the world, and there are heavens outside the sky.

Yuan Shang is a smart person, and the implementation of his strategy and plan to attack Xu Du is also quite ingenious, but there are too many smart people in this world, but he is not the only one.

Born Guo Fengxiao, heroic heroes, Tibetan scriptures and history in the abdomen, hidden armor soldiers in the chest, scheming like Fan Li, and decision-making like Chen Ping.

There are countless talents in the Central Plains, but from the point of view of wit and strategy, it is best to sacrifice wine to Guo Jia under Cao Cao's account.

Just because there were too many letters, I could see Yuan Shang's true intentions, and I could guess Yuan Shang's retreat route, and the ghost Guo Jia was indeed worthy of his reputation.

This person is really terrible.

The words are divided into two ends.

The days flew by, and in the blink of an eye, the time of the two days had flown by.

In the past two days, Cao Jun has tried to break out of the encirclement and report to Cao Cao several times under Xun Yu's arrangement, but Yuan Jun has been extremely strict in defense, and Hugh said that a messenger even a fly wants to fly out.

In this way, Baba was delayed for two days, Xun Yu's heart became colder and cooler day by day, and Yuan Shang's heart became more and more stable day by day.

It wasn't until the morning of the third day that Yuan Shangfang sent someone to summon Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran to his side to discuss the strategy of withdrawing troops.

In the past few days, the two generals in the Yuan army have no spirit, and the usual radiance has completely disappeared, and the look on their faces, in addition to fatigue is hard work, the eyes of the two are blue, and their eyes are full of bloodshots, which can really be described as extremely tired.

It's really hard work, Yuan Shang secretly sighed in his heart.

Thinking of this, Yuan Shang strode forward, and personally straightened the armor and placket for the two generals in distress, and then bowed down, and said respectfully: "The hard work of the two generals day and night to kill the enemy can be exchanged for today's results, Yuan Shang has nothing to repay, he can only thank the two generals here for his father and the Hebei soldiers." ”

Zhang Jaw was shocked when he heard this, hurriedly shook his head, and bowed back: "The third son's words are really killing us, this is a matter within the last general's share, and he should dare to be such a big gift to the third son!" ”

Gao Ran said with a smile: "That's it, it's just a few days off, what's the point?" Wouldn't it be happy to capture Cao Cao in the future, peel off the skin of the thief, and sleep in the end for a night, and make up for the sleep? ”

Yuan Shang smiled and nodded: "General Gao's words are reasonable, if it's not enough, how about I give you a night pot to take Cao Cao's brain seeds?" ”

Gao Ran's mouth cracked: "More painful!" ”

Looking up at the city of Xuchang not far away, a smile appeared on the corner of Yuan Shang's mouth: "The siege of the city has been two whole days, the time is almost over, even if Xuchang City sends a sentry to inform Cao Cao now, it is too late, the goal has been achieved, two generals, we have no point in staying here!" Soldiers and horses to the east, go to Xuzhou! ”

Zhang Jaw and Gao Laner looked at each other with a relieved smile.

But seeing that Yuan Shang's eyes suddenly flashed, he seemed to think of something again, and said with a smile: "But before that, I still have to leave a small gift for Cao Cao, where is the boundary monument of Xu Du?" ”

The second general was suspicious when he heard this.

The so-called boundary monument is a landmark stone monument erected in the county town for the division of states and counties.

The name of the state and county is engraved on the stele, which represents that the territory after the stele is owned by the county in the name, just like the demarcation tablet of Chang'an is engraved with the word "Chang'an", the demarcation tablet of Luoyang is engraved with the word "Luoyang", and the demarcation tablet of Yecheng is engraved with "Yecheng"

To put it bluntly, it's like the house number of a person's house.

By analogy, the demarcation monument of Xudu is naturally engraved with "Xuchang".

Yuan Jun's soldiers and horses marched to the demarcation monument of Xudu, only to see Yuan Shang as if he was playing a trick, taking out a wooden box from his arms, which was full of bright red dansha, which dissolved when exposed to water and solidified it. …,

Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran looked at each other in confusion, not understanding what Yuan Shang was trying to do strangely.

I saw Yuan Shangbi agitating on the demarcation monument for a long time, raised his hand to wipe his sweat, and waved his hand to the second general with a smile: "It's done, now you can collect troops and go to Xuzhou." ”

Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran took a closer look at the stone stele, and immediately couldn't help wiping cold sweat together.

Gao Ran's mouth cracked, and he hesitated: "Third son, isn't it a bit of a big fuss for us to do this?" If Cao Bing comes back and sees it, he won't catch up with us and bite us to death? According to the general, let's wipe it, don't mess with them too much. ”

Zhang Jaw also smiled helplessly, opened his mouth to say something, but hesitated, and finally closed his mouth without squeaking.

Yuan Shang turned over his horse, patted Gao Ran's shoulder, and said with a smile: "General Gao, you are honest, you are really too worried, as the saying goes, if you don't know what you see, if you don't know what you know, if you don't know what you do, let's come all the way over, how can you turn around in circles at the door of people's homes and don't knock on the door?" I'm doing this out of politeness. ”

Gao Ran's eyelids twitched when he heard this. Turning his head to look at the demarcation monument that was smeared by Yuan Shang like a ghost drawing

The third prince really loves to joke, and it can be said that it is polite to smear people's faces like such bears? !

******************

After listening to Guo Jia's advice, Cao Cao no longer hesitated, and personally supervised the army to the north to pursue Yuan Shao, and on the other hand, he sent the general Xiahou Yuan to lead an elite army to quickly go south to Xu Du to help Xun Yu annihilate the Yuan army besieging Xu Du.

In Cao Cao's own Cao Wei Eight Tiger Cavalry, Xiahou Yuan is best at running thousands of miles, he followed Cao Cao in his early years, fought bravely, served as Sima of other departments, cavalry captain, and later promoted to Chen Liu, Yingchuan Taishou, can be described as a great achievement, in the battle of Guandu, he was mainly responsible for Cao Cao supervising the transportation of grain and grass.

This time, Cao Cao sent him back to the army to rescue Xu Du, which can be said to have used his expertise.

Xiahou Yuan likes to rush to fight the most, and the march is extremely fast, from Cao Cao ordering him to reinforce Xu Du, to when he leads the army to rush back, it took less than a day and night at most, and it really lives up to his prestige as a pioneer.

The army rushed back day and night, and seeing that it was about to reach the border of Xu County, Xiahou Yuan, who was in the lead, narrowed his eyes, and then gave an order, ordering the soldiers behind him to be aware of the attack and ready to attack the enemy at any time.

The war horses neighed, the flags were displayed, the soldiers were like a rainbow, and the morale was like a rainbow.

Under the leadership of Xiahou Yuan, Cao Jun seemed to be a pack of foraging wolves, using their fierce and alert eyes to inspect every place where the enemy might be lurking.

"Newspaperβ€”"

In a hurry, he saw a scout flying horse galloping over, like an arrow from the string, and he had arrived in front of Xiahou Yuan in an instant.

Xiahou Yuan stood on his horse, staring at the scout with a grand face, and opened his mouth to just pop out one word: "Speak!" ”

Xiahou Yuan only sought the word "fast" in his military for half of his life, and his character was also as fierce as a fire, and he never procrastinated in speaking and doing things, showing his ability.

The scout knew Xiahou Yuan's temperament very well, and hurriedly reported: "General Qiyu, there is no movement of Yuan's army outside the city of Xudu, and all his soldiers and horses have been evacuated, and there has never been a battalion, a stove, a soldier or a pawn, but"

"It's just something, there's something to talk about!" What Xia Houyuan hates most is hesitation in speaking.

The scout shuddered when he heard this, and hurriedly replied: "Although the Yuan army retreated, it left some traces of dansha on the northern boundary monument of Xudu, and the state is very tragic, please ask the general to go and see it himself." ”

On the demarcation monument?

How tragic is it?

What's going on? What tricks can a broken stone play?

Xiahou Yuan was unsure, his brows furrowed slightly, his legs were clamped, and he led his troops straight to the border north of Xudu. …,

After a while, the soldiers and horses of the Cao army have already opened to the northern boundary monument, only to see the original bluestone erected, solemn and solemn demarcation monument, at this moment, for some reason, it is actually painted by the red cinnabar like a ghost painting symbol, circle and dot, it is extraordinarily frightening.

Xiahou Yuan's face changed, and he hurriedly stepped forward to take a closer look.

After just watching it for a few seconds, I saw Xiahou Yuan angrily stabbing the war gun in his hand on the ground, his eyes were wide open, his nostrils were closed one by one, and the atmosphere was spewing out like a bull, looking up to the sky and shouting angrily, which was particularly terrifying.

"Yuan Jun is all despicable and shameless! Expose the wound without revealing the sore, and hit someone without slapping the face! Which bastard did this! ”

Several lieutenants behind Xiahou Yuan looked forward together when they heard this

Then everyone froze.

But seeing that the original smooth and flat, only the word "Xuchang" on the stone tablet, at this moment has been swept by the cinnabar left and right, depicted like a dying blood book, how many cold people are and how cold people are.

What's even more odious is the content of the words written on it, although it makes people seem to understand it, but it is not a good word at first glance.

But seeing a crooked line of red letters, the sharp momentum of the word "Xu Du" was completely covered, like a shrimp crawler, extremely stumbling, and there was a silly smiling villain painted behind.

"Good mountains, good water, good scenery, eat and drink good times the fragrance, this eldest prince came to Xuchang for a visit, keep a copy of a pair as a souvenir, exclusive treasure pen careful collection, yes! \(^o^)/
