Chapter 109: In one day, the world moved

That night, Li Dian took the army away, Tai Shici waited until the next day, as soon as the sky was dark, he couldn't bear it anymore, hurriedly greeted Cheng Yu, and led the soldiers to roar away.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was almost no entertainment program, and many of the big families had dancing girls, and when they came at night, they either had a banquet at home, or enjoyed playing alone at home, and their lives were rotten. For ordinary people, they sleep at night, and work all day during the day has already exhausted the excess energy in their bodies, and at night is the time for them to recuperate, and besides, they do not have too much energy and money to have fun.

Tai Shi Ci with 10,000 soldiers, cavalry only 1,000, is its own personal guard, in order to achieve quiet, Tai Shi Ci ordered everyone to wrap the horse's hooves, the horse's mouth ring, even so, Tai Shi Ci is still not at ease, the thousand cavalry left at the end, the same left, there are 6,000 foot soldiers, and baggage, equipment.

The city was short and dilapidated, and since the Yellow Turban Rebellion had been put down, there had been no war here, and there were no other defenders in the city except for five hundred old and weak, and there was no vigilance, and the sickle of death was hanging over their heads.

Tai Shi Ci arrived with 3,000 soldiers, everyone carefully folded the Arhats, climbed to the top of the city, the county defenders fell asleep, and they were captured by Tai Shi Ci without realizing it, and none of them escaped.

At the head of the city, a small colonel who looked like a non-commissioned officer was pressed by two people, trembling all over, looking very scared, and stammered: "General...... Will...... General, the little ones don't ...... I don't know where I offended the general, and I ...... Still looking forward to ...... I hope the general will spare his life. ”

Tai Shi Ci saw it, and his eyes showed disdain: "Okay, you come and tell me, where is the county guard?" Rest assured, a certain family does not kill people indiscriminately. ”

When the colonel heard this, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "If the general doesn't give up, the little one is willing to lead the way for the general, please here." ”

Bowing his head and hunching his waist, the little colonel took Tai Shici and his party to the county guard's mansion. With his leadership, it was easy to deceive the county guard, no fighting, no shouting to kill, and the land of a county, just like that, fell. The sun rose on the second day, and no one in the county found that Guangxian County had changed the sky......

Tai Shi Ci captured Guangxian, but did not stay, leaving 500 soldiers to guard Guangxian, waiting for the rear army to come, leading the soldiers and horses straight to the Qi County Guard.

Along the way, carefully avoid the villages on the road, accompanied by the sound of insects and dogs barking, the army stumbled forward, and when it arrived, it was faintly able to see the torches lit in the distance.

During Zhuge Jin's actions, none of the princes in the world were idle.

Yuan Shao of Jizhou, wanted to establish Liu Yu of Youzhou as the emperor, but was rejected by him, and listened to Liu Bei's opinion, and spread the matter widely. Yuan Shaoshenzhi, house slave Chen Lin, said: "Loyal Table".

Its gist is: If today, Dong thieves are in power, the Han family is declining, the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family, want to uphold the righteousness in the world, but the imperial power is held hostage by Dong thieves, and there is no right name. Now I want to support the new emperor, just for the Han family, but Liu Yu in Youzhou, his ambition is hidden in the world, and his affairs are widely spread, so that the loyal and good people are forbidden, where are the princes of the world placed? Where to place the Han Dynasty?

As soon as Chen Lin's table came out, Yuan Shao immediately dispatched troops to prepare to attack Youzhou to avenge Liu Yu's slander, and there was no room for maneuver between the two. When Liu Yu saw this, he was furious, gathered all the generals, and prepared to compete with Yuan Shao.

Chen Liu, Cao Cao, and Guo Jia sat opposite each other: "My lord, if the general trend is gradually becoming clear today, Liu Yu in Youzhou, Yuan Shao in Hebei and Erzhou, Dong Zhuo in Xiliang, Yuan Shu in Yuzhou, Liu Yan in Yizhou, Liu Biao in Jingzhou, Zhang Wen in Yangzhou, Liu Dai in Yanzhou, Tao Qian in Xuzhou, only Qingzhou is still not clear, but Taishan and Langya surround Qingzhou, and Zhuge Jin is there, and it will definitely fall into his hands in the end." ”

Cao Cao nodded, obviously agreeing with what Guo Jia said: "Ziyu is extraordinary, there has been no movement in the past few years, I think he must be the same as me, and then wait for the opportunity, he should not be underestimated." ”

When Guo Jia heard Zhuge Jin, a trace of inexplicability flashed in his eyes. The two met back then, Guo Jia was very attracted by his style, and was almost impressed by it, Zhuge Jin showed too little at that time, and then Xun Yu recommended it to Cao Cao, the two hated to see each other late, Guo Jia was more appreciative of Cao Cao's heroic posture, in comparison, Zhuge Jin was a little less domineering.

After a long time, Guo Jia came back to his senses and said: "The lord wants to fight for the world, and there are three people who must be guarded against. ”

Cao Cao nodded, his strategic vision is the most superb, and he can see through it without Guo Jia's reminder, but Guo Jia said that there are three, which makes him puzzled: "Feng Xiao said to listen to it." ”

"First, it is Liu Bei of Youzhou, who can forbear, is good at winning people's hearts, and has the name of a Han clan, so he must be guarded against. Second, it is that Zhuge Jin, who is talented and knows people well, and now he is a big man, and his family is not small, his in-laws Zhen family, rich and rich can rival the country, if he moves, he must not be underestimated. Third, it is Sun Jian, this person's temperament has changed greatly since he courted Dong, he is calm, resolute, and ruthless, which is really a big thing. Guo Jia took the three of them out one by one, but in Cao Cao's eyes, he was hesitant.

"Feng Xiao's words, Cao agrees very much, but why is Yuan Shao missing? The fourth and third dukes of the Yuan family, across Hebei and two states, have a lot of troops, countless generals, and their prestige is in the world. "Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, playmates since childhood, have an extraordinary understanding of each other, war does not come just out of their mouths, war is fought by strength, obviously, in Cao Cao's heart, the Yuan family occupies a lot of weight.

Guo Jia listened, but smiled disdainfully: "There is no room for people, if you like to listen to slander, it will not be far away, if the lord fights with him, he can fight." Now in the Central Plains, strong enemies look around, the lord wants to develop, must find another place for development, Jia thinks, should take Hanzhong. Around this place, there are only two princes, Dong Zhuo and Liu Yan, these two people are not worried, and the people of Hanzhong are rich, which can win the opportunity for development for the lord. ”

Chen stayed in business for a long time, and was about to give it up at first, Cao Cao hesitated a little in his heart, Guo Jia no longer spoke, waiting for Cao Cao's choice.

After a long time, Cao Cao's face showed ruthlessness: "Okay, then take Hanzhong first." ”

When Guo Jia saw it, he was happy in his heart, he was worthy of being the master he chose, just this amount of energy, there is almost no one in the world to compare: "Don't worry, the lord doesn't want Chen Liu, Jia naturally has a plan to empty it." ”

In a word, Cao Cao's mood was adjusted again, and the two looked at each other and laughed.

Sun Jian and Liu Yan had a grudge between them, which became more and more profound, and now after the autumn harvest and the last period before winter came, the war began without warning.
