Chapter 241: Cao Mengde, who vomits blood, begs for peace!
"If he doesn't beg for peace, then fight until he begs for peace!"
As soon as he said this, the few people present were all stunned and looked at Chu Feng blankly.
"My lord, will there be something wrong with raising troops to the north? Now that Cao Cao is facing off against Yuan Shao, our army can certainly win a big victory if they don't sneak attack. ”
"But once Cao Cao is defeated because of this, Yuan Shao's army of tens of thousands will definitely move south, and when the time comes, won't we have to face Yuan Shao's army alone?"
Lu Su hurriedly suggested.
"That's right, this battle will defeat Cao Cao, and when our army and Yuan Shao compete for the Central Plains, how can they stop it from swallowing the sky?"
Zhang Hong also suggested.
For a while, the three think tanks all raised objections, mainly according to what Chu Feng said before, waiting for Cao Cao to win Yuan Shao and fight Cao Cao in the north.
Not in Cao Cao has not yet started fighting.
At this time, according to the original plan, it should have captured Jingzhou, not Cao Cao's territory, which made them not understand why Chu Feng, who had always been wise and martial, was suddenly confused.
"Hehe, a few people are too worried!"
"First of all, this time the troops went north to capture Xuzhou, not Xuchang. Secondly, although the formation was very large this time, the purpose was not to let Cao Cao return to help, but to beg for peace. ”
"Do you understand?" Chu Feng asked with his hands behind his back.
"Lord, although we are asking Cao Cao to beg for peace, our army's northward march will inevitably make Cao's army panic, and once Cao Cao will make a mistake, wouldn't it..."
Zhang Hong was a little worried,
Once the news of the front and back attacks enters the Cao army, it will inevitably cause unnecessary panic, once Cao Cao miscalculates, it will be over, and who will Yuan Shao contend with at that time?
"Hehe, I'm too worried!"
"This battle is betting on Cao Cao's compromise rather than retreating, thinking about Cao Cao's temperament, it is impossible to distinguish which is more important, isn't it?"
"What's more, even if he is broken by Yuan Shao, why can't our army fight with it? Even if the enemy can't be defeated, you can defend the river, right? ”
Chu Feng pondered a little and said.
"This..., lord, my subordinates still think it's too risky, it's better to capture Jingzhou, and now Jingzhou is under Zhang Xian's attack, and the defense is gradually decreasing."
Lu Su still didn't agree with raising troops to the north now.
"Hehe, isn't it better to kill two birds with one stone?" The corners of Chu Feng's mouth hooked up a chuckle, pinched the tea cup on the table, and asked with a chuckle.
"Killing two birds with one stone?" All three of them murmured in amazement.
"I led my troops to force Cao Cao to submit, and I think that Liu Biao in Jingzhou will also lower his vigilance, so that Zhao Fan and Gan Ning can take a boat all the way, and go all the way to Jiangxia on foot, and destroy Huang Zu."
"Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?"
Chu Feng took a sip of tea and said with a chuckle, all this was expected by him, and the introduction of coins was to confuse Liu Biao into preparing to make a fuss with coins.
Immediately after taking the opportunity to go north, how could Liu Biao have thought that he would kill a surprise attack?
"This..."The three of them were embarrassed for a while, and sighed: "The lord is far-sighted and strategic, and we are very ashamed, very ashamed. ”
"Remember, this time it's all about the good."
"First, Cao Cao ceded land and sued for peace, promising unequal treaties."
"Second, Zhang Xian's unequal treaty assistance must also be reached."
"Third, the replacement of Jingzhou coins will speed up, and I will have a trick when the time comes."
"Fourth, Gan Ning's 20,000 boat divisions, Zhao Fan led the headquarters of the army, Xu Kun assisted, a total of 30,000 people, after I went north, I took advantage of Jingzhou's unpreparedness,
Be sure to capture Jiangxia Water Village in one fell swoop, capture Jiangling County, so as to approach Shaxian and besiege Huangzu! Chu Feng listed the points he needed to earn this time.
Fighting a war is like a business war, and it is all for profit.
And in this battle, he occupies the right time and place, and the initiative is in his hands, which can be said to be perfect, depending on how much he can eat in this duel.
"The lord is thoughtful, and we can't wait!" Several people bowed their hands in unison, and their admiration was even greater, Chu Feng's interlocking was too powerful.
"Okay, let's go down and make arrangements, be sure to let Zhang Xian spit out something quickly, and let Mi Zhu speed up the seizure of Jingzhou's commerce, as for going north, it's okay to be above board!"
"Order all the departments of the three armies, three days later, raise troops to the north to capture Xuzhou, I want to come to Cao Cao to know my intentions!" Chu Feng waved his hand and arranged directly.
"No!" Several people responded in unison.
————
Jian'an four years, mid-May.
Chu Feng responded to Yuan Shao's call in the name of the Yuan family with great fanfare, and raised nearly 40,000 troops, known as 200,000 troops, to jointly attack Xuzhou under the rule of the Han thief Cao Cao.
With Chu Feng sending troops openly, the world was in a state of discussion for a while, and countless people who were not optimistic about Cao Cao instantly did not recognize Cao Cao's success.
Even the countless families in Xuchang who already wanted to commit treason were even more rippling, and they were all trying their best to contact Yuan Shao in the north to flatter and surrender.
Under Cao Cao's rule, the people of several states were all panicked, worried that they were in the center of the war, for fear that something would happen before the autumn harvest this year.
At the same time, the princes of the world were shocked.
Some people wondered, some applauded, and more worried.
At this point, the pattern of the world has risen again, and people are uncertain about the ending.
Some people predict that this battle between the princes may eventually become a civil war of the Yuan family, with Yuan Shao in Hebei and Chu Feng in Jiangnan carving up Cao Cao, and finally fighting a decisive battle of life and death.
This is recognized by the vast majority of people, of course, they don't think that only Chu Feng in the land of one state can win.
————
On the official road west of the white horse,
Cao Cao had many generals around him, and this time, Cao Cao transferred the tiger from the mountain to contain Yuan Shao's army according to Xun You's strategy, so as to repel Wen Chou and rescue Liu Yan.
At the moment, it is retreating.
Although Wen Chou was defeated, the loss of the White Horse Road meant that it was useless to stick to Yanjin, as long as Yuan Shao divided his troops to cross the river from the east, he could copy his back road.
It also means that in just over a month after the start of the war, he had to abandon Yanjin, or resist Yuan Shao again in the village on the main road of Baima, but his troops were limited, and it was obviously unwise to divide his troops.
For this reason, Cao Cao frowned gloomily and was irritable.
"Report, Qi Lord, Xuchang is in a hurry." In the distance, a messenger carried a positive yellow flag behind his back, which represented eight hundred miles of urgency and shouted urgently.
Cao Cao's brows tightened instantly, what he hated most now was hearing the urgent mail from Xuchang, because there was absolutely no good thing about the urgent mail from Xuchang.
Either there is a rebellion in the city, or the little emperor is not honest,
Or there may be a shortage of food in the rear, or even an attack from a foreign enemy, in short, there will be no good news.
Reaching out to take it, Cao Cao untied it, and gradually, his brows were tightly twisted together, as if he had seen something that made him angry and nervous.
This also made the generals puzzled.
Xun You and Guo Jia glanced at each other, and the latter asked, "Lord, what's the matter?" ”
Cao Cao's tense expression stretched out and laughed at this time, and he laughed a few times loudly, and then said loudly: "Xun Yu is also true, that Concubine Dong was diagnosed with pregnancy, and she actually sent someone to expedite it for eight hundred miles, which is really a big fuss!" ”
"Okay, don't be stunned, give the order to go down, hurry up the march, there is a tile pavilion in front, and the tile will be repaired." Cao Cao waved his hand and said indifferently.
"No!" The generals sighed, and they all thought that Xun Yu was making a big fuss, and they all ordered all the departments to march quickly.
To the left and right, Guo Jia and Xun You glanced at each other, with a hint of solemnity in their eyebrows, and the military information that Cao Cao could take the initiative to conceal was obviously a big incident.
At this moment, the two of them tacitly understood and did not dare to ask.
It is only less than ten miles away from Wating at this time, and it can be reached in the blink of an eye.
In this way, Cao Jun marched all the way, and along the way, Cao Cao's face was tense, and there was even a little blood on his face, and he sat on the chariot without saying a word.
Eventually, the encampment was completed.
Drinking back and right, Cao Cao just entered the account, a mouthful of blood spurted out directly, and then he was sluggish and went down directly, but fortunately, Guo Jiaxun was quickly supported by his hands.
"Lord, are you alright?" The two of them were concerned.
"It's okay!" Cao Cao raised his hand and held his head, and his head was blown again.
"Lord, what the hell is going on?" The two didn't dare to say anything, and asked.
"Chu Feng... Went north! After Cao Cao said this, it seemed that he had drained his strength, he calculated that Chu Feng would not be reconciled, but he didn't expect him to be in such a hurry.
"Chu Feng went north? Are you in such a hurry? The two frowned, a little incredulous, they definitely thought about Chu Feng going north, but they didn't expect Chu Feng to dare to come at this time.
"How many soldiers?" Guo Jia frowned and asked.
"About 50,000 people, known as 200,000 troops, are approaching Xuzhou." Cao Cao's voice was slightly weak, and he had been holding on hard just now.
Because this matter cannot be known to the army,
Otherwise, the three armies are already afraid, and if there is an impact of this matter, how can we talk about facing Yuan Shao, how can we talk about retreating from the enemy and breaking the army?
"Fifty thousand? Approaching Xuzhou? ”
The two exclaimed, looked at each other, and both saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
On the one hand, he was surprised that Chu Feng actually led an army of 50,000 to the north, and on the other hand, he had a different view of Chu Feng's approach to Xuzhou, and in the end, the two of them saw the answer from each other's eyes.
"Lord, according to his subordinates, Chu Feng is not fighting to the death, if he really wants to win, he can press the whole army and approach Xuchang, not Xuzhou."
Xun You said loudly.
"What do you think he is for?" Cao Cao asked with a gloomy brow.
"Lord, Chu Feng is a smart person, he won't fail to understand that if the lord is defeated, he will face Yuan Shao alone, he will definitely not do such a stupid thing."
"According to the inference of his subordinates, there are only three possibilities for him to raise troops to the north and take Xuzhou directly."
"First, not long after the new occupation of the lord of Xuzhou, the people's hearts were not attached, and Chu Feng took advantage of the fire to rob and want to occupy Xuzhou as his own, so as to expand his territorial strength."
"Second, he wants the lord to send someone to sue for peace and give benefits, because although he takes the initiative, he doesn't dare to make too much trouble with the lord."
"Third, that is, Chu Feng has a sick brain, and he thinks that he is sure to repel Yuan Shao and start an all-out war. But in the eyes of the subordinates, the first and second are the most likely. ”
Guo Jia bowed his hand and explained in detail.
"Lord, what Feng Xiao said is good, Chu Feng is a smart person, how could he lift a stone and shoot himself in the foot, he is gambling that the lord will not dare to fully withdraw the army and fight him."
"So, he's eighty percent trying to get some benefits." Xun You also recognized that Chu Feng was not a fool, he really wanted to provoke Cao Cao and withdraw into the Guanzhong, and it was he who was unlucky.
It's just that Chu Feng pinched Cao Cao's lifeline, obviously Cao Cao would not retreat to Guanzhong, so he would eat this knife, and he would also show that he was begging.
"What do you two see?"
Cao Cao asked, and he had thought about all of this.
But he still couldn't get angry, Chu Feng was a despicable villain.
"Cutting the land and seeking peace, don't let this matter expand its influence again, otherwise once it reaches the ears of the army, the army's morale will inevitably be turbulent, and even I suspect that Xuchang and the anxiety are exhausted."
Xun Yu immediately answered.
"Lord, there is one thing to remind you, Chu Feng is by no means good at stubble, this time it is naturally good to cut the land and seek peace, but when the lord takes Yuan Shao, Chu Feng will still come."
"When the time comes, the offensive will inevitably be more intense, so Jia thinks that some preparations must be made in advance." Guo Jia frowned and said in a deep voice.
Cao Cao frowned, they had discussed this matter more than once, and the only way was to defeat Yuan Shao and return to the army quickly, but at present, it seems a bit fantastical.
is already weak to strong, even if he can win, he is a tired soldier, and if he goes to fight Chu Feng again, what are the chances of winning?
"Feng Xiao has a plan to teach me?"
"I don't dare to be, but our army must not be at the mercy of this person. There are only two ways to solve this situation, one is to make it have no time to take care of itself."
"Second, avoid its edge and move into Guanzhong."
"The second point is not working now, then there is only the first point, as far as I know, there are countless mountains and crosses in Yangzhou, and Chu Feng has been ignoring it,"
"Lord, you might as well send someone to unite the leaders of all walks of life, and after our army has a big victory, let the leaders of all walks of life attack Yangzhou County together, and then Chu Feng will be difficult to take care of."
"Of course, before that, we must stop fighting, otherwise our army will definitely be defeated!" Guo Jia said solemnly, at present, Jingzhou Liu Biao is unreliable,
The Jiaozhi scholars were too far away, and the only thing they could count on was the group of half-civilized Shanyue, who were indeed not afraid of Chu Feng daring to fight for the sake of interests.
"Fengxiao's plan is very good!" Xun You nodded.
"Shanyue, those are easy to say, but they are just promising some land money women, but it is Chu Feng's side," Cao Cao frowned and hesitated.
"Lord, Xun Yu still needs to stabilize the rear for the lord, Xun Yu needs to give advice to the lord, this time let Jia go again, and ensure that Chu Feng stops the sword!"
Guo Jia bowed his hand, and Mao recommended himself.
"This..."Cao Cao didn't want to, but except for Guo Jia, no one else had this talent.
"Okay, this time you must be careful with filial piety, as for cutting the land and asking for peace, these can be agreed, but you must strive for it, and you can't let go easily."
Cao Cao sighed and said.
He thought that Chu Feng would not dare to go north, but he didn't expect him to really dare, he simply didn't play cards according to common sense, isn't it good to go to Jingzhou at this time?
Is it bad to have a million household registration in Jingzhou's eight counties?
The more he thought about it, the more angry Cao Cao became, he had to come to dig up his own flesh, what kind of person.
"Don't worry, Jia's heart knows it." Guo Jia nodded, "Lord, Chu Feng has already sent troops, this should be sooner rather than later, Jia will go to Xuzhou to envoy Chu Feng." ”
Guo Jia knew that this matter could not be delayed.
"Well, let's go, come on, escort the sacrificial wine along the way, if there is anything wrong, Weier and wait to ask." Cao Cao shouted outside the tent.
Immediately, Cao Cao was annoyed by Chu Feng,
Sending Guo Jia to negotiate peace again, this will be the second time Cao Cao has sued Chu Feng for peace, but not necessarily the last!
