Chapter 52: Seeking Immortals
After getting the news of Cao Cao's surprise attack on the black nest, Yuan Shao's general Zhang He proposed that he must immediately reinforce the black nest, and if the black nest is lost, it will definitely be defeated. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
However, Yuan Shao had a strategist named Guo Tu who disagreed, and Guo Tu said that he should go to Guandu at this time. As soon as there were a dozen Guandu, Cao Cao, who was rushing to attack Wuchao, had to come back to save Guandu halfway through, and the siege of Wuchao was unsolvable to save himself.
Yuan Shao felt that Guo Tu's method was good, so he mainly used Guo Tu's method to send a small number of troops to rescue Wuchao, and at the same time sent heavy troops to attack Guandu.
In fact, the difference in strength between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao at that time should not be particularly large, otherwise they would not have been able to fight. In addition, after Cao Cao retreated to Guandu, Yuan Shao's supply line was lengthened, and the gap in front-line strength was further narrowed, so it was estimated that Yuan Shao would be difficult to defeat Cao Cao's base camp in Guandu for a while.
As a result, what Zhang He said was right, Wuchao was lost, Yuan Shao's military rations were all burned, and Guandu was not defeated. However, although Guo Tu was wrong, this villain first went to Yuan Shao to make a small report, saying that Zhang He gloated in private, and losing the black nest proved that he was right.
Yuan Shao wanted to save face, and he immediately became suspicious. Zhang He felt that it was not good, the front was lost, the backyard was on fire, and he was almost cornered. So Zhang He and his subordinate Gao Lanyi combined and surrendered directly to Cao Cao.
When Zhang He came to Guandu, Cao Cao was still on the way back from Wuchao, and those who stayed behind to guard the camp of Cao's army were Cao Cao's military advisor Xun You and general Cao Hong. Zhang He and Gao Ran came to surrender with their troops, but Cao Hong didn't know whether it was a real surrender or a fraudulent surrender? Xun You advised him not to hesitate and open the door quickly.
After Cao Cao came back from Wuchao, he was naturally very happy when he heard that Zhang He had surrendered, and he took Zhang He's hand and said, "This is Han Xin who voted for Liu Bang!" ”
In this way, Cao Cao gathered five good generals: Le Jin, Yu Ban, Xu Huang, Zhang Liao and Zhang He. Everyone in the world knows that Shu Han had five tiger generals: Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Ma Chao, Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun. In fact, Cao Cao's five good generals are not bad, among which Guan Yu has a good relationship with Zhang Liao and Xu Huang.
After that, Cao Cao continued to actively counterattack according to Jia Xu's suggestion, while Yuan Shao's side was already in turmoil and was completely vulnerable. Yuan Shao himself took his eldest son Yuan Tan and turned around and ran north, not caring for anything, and the battle of Guandu ended in Cao Cao's victory.
After this big defeat, Yuan Shao was in a slump for about two years, and finally died of vomiting blood. Two years later, Yuan Shao's successor, Yuan Shang, was defeated by Cao Cao, and the following year Yuan Shao's eldest son, Yuan Tan, was killed by Cao Cao. After another three years, Yuan Shao's successor Yuan Shang and Yuan Shao's second son Yuan Xi were cornered and fled to Liaodong.
The brothers are not a good thing either, it is said that they originally wanted to make Liaodong Taishou Gongsun Kang, and then the magpie's nest dove occupied. As a result, Gongsun Kang took the lead and set up a banquet to murder Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi, and sent the heads of the two to Cao Cao, and the Yuan family was completely wiped out.
In fact, Cao Cao was very capable of leading troops to fight when he was young and middle-aged, and Liu Bei was the same, but Liu Bei may still be worse than Cao Cao.
Although it was worse, Liu Bei was relatively lucky, and he was particularly good at escaping, and during the stalemate phase of the Battle of Guandu, Liu Bei left Yuan Shao's team and united with a former leader of the Yellow Turban Army who betrayed Cao Cao, and harassed Cao Cao around Xu Du.
…………
Although it was still very far away from Cao Cao's southern expedition to Jingzhou at this time, Su Le and the others should have made plans early.
The appearance of Su Le and Ya Lifu has been somewhat known to Cao Cao and his subordinates, probably because they are afraid of the divine power of the two, and Su Le said that he would not deliberately embarrass them, so Cao Cao did not search for the two of them with great fanfare.
Since Cao Cao didn't make trouble for himself, Su Le naturally also practiced the strategy of not offending me and not offending others. However, if you settle down in the Yellow River Valley in the north or even near Xudu, if you turn around under Cao Cao's nose all day long, you may accidentally run into an "acquaintance", and you will be in trouble in the future.
Therefore, Su Le considered moving Baicaotang to Jiangdong once and for all, but Jiangdong should not be as prosperous as it was later, so he decided to take someone to inspect the living environment first.
This time, in addition to Athena and Ya Lito, Su Le also brought Cai Yan. Because this time it was not a dangerous thing, Cai Yan insisted on going, in addition to serving Su Le on the road, she also wanted to visit the famous Fang Shi Yu Ji, so for such a good reason, of course, Su Le could not refuse.
Among the remaining four, Lin Fulei will definitely not be able to leave, and now that Baicaotang's business is getting bigger and bigger, she seems to be worried for some reason, and Su Le told her that there will be war here in a few years, which makes her anxious for a while. Fortunately, Diao Chan can take charge of himself and help Lin Fulei share a lot of things.
If Lin Fulei can't go, she naturally won't let Huahe go, so as not to be ruined by Su Le. In addition, although Su Le did not say it, Mulan still stayed to protect the safety of the women and the family's industry.
Since Mulan has not been in the same room with Su Le since the first time, her appearance is now much more mature, and she is more stable, a little bit of her sister Shulan's demeanor.
Moreover, Mulan is now very gentle with Su Le from time to time, which makes the only man in the Baicao Hall itch in his heart, but whenever Su Le proposes to continue the front edge, Mulan always firmly refuses.
Hua Lotus is also very attractive, the difference is that Su Le does not dare to make that request to Hua Lotus, and it may take an opportunity to go further......
This time it was down the river, so it was still by boat, Su Le took Ya Li, Cai Yan and Athena to go, and on the way, he naturally took the opportunity to go with the three [omit a few words here], of course, only one at a time, and it didn't take long to get off the boat when they arrived at this place in Lujiang.
Although Lujiang is not a very big city, the four of them still stayed for a while. One is that Ya Lifu is very good at shopping, and she feels fresh when she looks at everything, and Cai Yan wants to visit the immortal Yu Ji.
Athena didn't make any special requests, although Su Le treated her much better than before, but compared to Ya Liyun and Cai Yan, the treatment was still worse. In addition to her physical needs, Su Le basically didn't give her any benefits, but used her as half a maid, so Athena seemed to be a wife on the surface, but in fact she was only treated as a concubine.

Yu Ji preached in this area of Jiangdong, and at the same time used Fu Shui to cure diseases and save people, and there were many believers in the local area, and his prestige even surpassed that of Sun Ce who pacified Jiangdong, and he had influence in the army. This made Sun Ce very dissatisfied, and decided that Yu Ji was a demon, first put him in prison, and later killed him.
From this point of view, Yu Ji should not have any particularly powerful supernatural powers, otherwise he would not have been killed by Sun Ce so easily. However, it is rumored among believers that Yu Ji did not die, but took off his skin and ascended to immortality.
