In the first battle of Kunyang, Cao's army lost more than 30,000 yuan, the general Lejin was captured, Zhang Liao was defeated and retreated to Xuchang, the news spread, and the Central Plains was shaken.

Jia Xu returned to the city to make amends to Zhang Liao, Zhuge Liang was skilled, leaving empty camps on both sides, and took Kunyang directly, but burned 20,000 elite soldiers with fire and suffered heavy losses.

Zhang Liao also felt powerless in this battle, and personally led the troops to rush to the camp twice, once in failure, once in the air, and he couldn't use his strength, and he was quite afraid of Zhuge Liang.

After appeasing Jia Xu, Zhang Liao said: "Wolong and Phoenix Chicks really have a strange scheme, Liu Qi has to help these two people to rise Jingzhou, Zhuge Liang does not get rid of it, I am afraid that the Central Plains are in danger, I want to send assassins to kill him, what does the military advisor think?" ”

Jia Xu shook his head and said, "Since Wolong has this strategy, how can he put himself in danger?" If it had not been for the ploy of his army and the capture of him in the walled city, the Assassins would have simply thrown themselves into the trap. ”

Zhang Liao frowned and said: "Kunyang is lost, Guan Yu can go north in a few ways, how should this be good?" ”

Jia Xu said: "If there is no containment of Eastern Wu, at this time, Xuzhou soldiers and horses will be transferred to fight with Guan Yu, and now Huainan is also fighting fiercely, only from Hebei to transfer troops, Xingyang and Runan need to be heavily guarded, not allowed to enter, wait for a short rest and recuperate, and then fight with the enemy." ”

Zhang Liao had no choice but to ask Jia Xu to see Cao Pi to discuss the transfer of troops, he led the troops to patrol the city to inquire about the military situation, at this time there was only one general left in the camp, Zhu Ling, and his heart was inexplicably sad.

When Jia Xu came to the palace, Cao Pi was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and hurriedly asked, "Sir, how is the military situation now?" ”

Jia Xu knelt down and pleaded guilty: "The old man is incompetent, he was calculated by Zhuge Liang, he really has the trust of the prime minister, and he has no shame to plan for the son of the world, and he is willing to take the blame and resign, sue the old man and return to his hometown, and hope that the son of the world will be favorable." ”

"Sir?" Cao Pi was shocked and hurriedly helped Jia Xu: "Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, Mr. almost captured Zhuge Liang and seriously injured Guan Yu, it is already a great achievement, why bother?" ”

Jia Xu sighed: "This defeat is all due to the old man's incomplete thinking, which has affected the three armies, and if he retreats without punishment, I am afraid that the soldiers of the battalion will not be convinced." ”

"This ......" Although Cao Pi is also extremely smart, after all, he is in charge of military politics for the first time, and he lacks experience, and if he does not have Jia Xu's assistance, he doesn't know how to deal with himself.

Jia Xu said again: "The prime minister uses soldiers, and there has always been clear rewards and punishments, so that he can be invincible and invincible. ”

Cao Pi panicked and wept: "Mr. is my teacher, if I take the blame and resign, who else can help me, the Central Plains is in danger, and my father's life's hard work is probably going to turn into flowing water." ”

Jia Xu hugged his fists and said: "Don't worry, when the prime minister went north, he entrusted Chen Changwen and Chen Jibi to assist the government, and these two people can be in charge of internal and external affairs." Although the old man resigned and retired, he would not ignore the military and politics, and could be a guest of the curtain and stay in the house to assist the prince. ”

"I see!" Cao Pi finally understood Jia Xu's hard work, let out a sigh of relief, and asked Jia Xu to sit down and ask about the next transfer of troops.

On the same day, the general ordered that due to Jia Xu's unfavorable planning, Kunyang was lost, and he was removed from the post of military advisor, and Chen Jiao served as a member of the army, and led the military of Yuzhou with Zhang Liao to defend the territory.

Jia Xu returned to the mansion and ordered his family members and others to move to the palace to live, and let the Taiwei Mansion out, and there were complaints in the mansion.

The eldest son, Jia Mu, was indignant and complained: "My father worked hard for state affairs and tried his best, but Cao Pi actually dismissed his father for Liwei, how can this be reasonable?" ”

Jia Xu said lightly: "People don't talk about the rights and wrongs of others before and after, especially those in high positions, they should be more cautious, so as not to cause death." ”

Jia Mu said angrily: "Since the prince dismissed his father from his post and kept him as a guest of honor, it was too deceitful. ”

Jia Xu smiled and said: "This is my father's intention, you don't have to complain, go and prepare quickly!" ”

Jamu was stunned and asked, "Why is my father like this?" ”

Jia Xu sighed: "I used a plan this time, ready to get rid of Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang in one fell swoop, and relieve the trouble of the prime minister's henchmen. ”

Jia Mu was puzzled: "A wise man must make a mistake in a thousand thoughts, and if there is a mistake, he should regain his strength and compete with him again, why admit defeat?" ”

Jia Xu said: "Guan Yu's prestige is very high, he is quite admired in the green forest, now it is poisonous, life and death are uncertain, my plan is too ruthless, it will provoke the anger of the public, I am afraid that someone will come to assassinate, I must prevent it!" ”

Jia Mu was taken aback, and did not dare to persuade again, so he honestly ordered someone to pack up and move to the palace to live.

Since the Son of Heaven moved the capital to Yecheng, the palace in Xuchang was inhabited by the Cao family, which was personally deployed by Cao Cao, and was heavily defended.

……

When Cao's army redeployed the defensive line, Gan Ning led his troops from Lushan to take the opportunity to attack Luyang and occupy this city, which would be connected to the east and west of Kunyang.

Yingchuan and Xingyang can be taken to the north, and Luoyang can be coerced by going west, and the princes from all walks of life begged for Dong in those years, and Sun Jian was stationed here to station troops, which was a great threat to Dong Zhuo.

The men and horses went over the mountain to the territory of Luyang, Gan Ning led the troops to observe the enemy situation, and saw that the soldiers in the city were heavily guarded, patrolling back and forth.

The defender of Luyang is Zhang Quan, the son of Zhang Xiu, Cao Cao pacified Hebei, Zhang Xiu broke Yuan Tan and made great contributions, increasing the number of thousands of households, and the territory was in Luyang.

Gan Ning said: "Cao Jun has indeed ordered all localities to strengthen their defenses, and the intention of this battle is to capture Zhang Quan alive, and it can only be outwitted, not mistaken." ”

Su Fei asked, "Do you have to wait for the night to strike?" ”

Gan Ning said with a smile: "Taking the city after dark, even if it succeeds, I'm afraid Zhang Quan will take advantage of the chaos to escape, the military advisor has a clever plan in advance, and there is no need for us to bother." ”

He ordered the soldiers to rest on the spot and wait until dusk to take the city.

In Luyang City, Zhang Quan was hanging filial piety for Zhang Xiu, but because the corpse could not be retrieved, only an empty coffin was parked in the courtyard.

Brother Zhang Chen persuaded: "The revenge has not been avenged, brother must take care of his body, the Jingzhou soldiers have been stationed in Kunyang, these days I will lead people to sneak behind Mopi, and I will find my uncle's body." ”

"Gan Ning, if you don't kill this thief, I swear not to be a man!" Zhang Quan's eyes were bloodshot, and he clenched his fists and roared.

Since the fall of Cao, Cao Cao has also been kind to his father and son, the eldest sister married Cao Xiong, married the Cao family, and lived a stable life in Luyang.

I thought that I could live for a long time, compared to Li Dao, Guo Yan and other old generals of Xiliang, this was already a great blessing, but who knew that in the end he died in the chaos of the army, and his bones were thrown in the wilderness.

Zhang Chen persuaded hard, only to bring Zhang Quan to the mansion, hastily eat, and was about to go back to rest, when suddenly the defenders reported that there were enemy troops entering.

Zhang Chen was shocked, and the two of them were busy watching the city, only to see a brocade robe and gold armor, with a rebellious momentum, showing off their might under the city, shouting that Zhang Quan would go out of the city and die.

Zhang Quan said in a deep voice: "Who is coming?" ”

Zhang Chen replied: "This is Jin Ganning!" ”

"Jinfan thief, I swear to kill you!" Zhang Quan was furious and was about to go out of the city to fight.

Zhang Chen hurriedly persuaded: "That Zhuge Liang is scheming, Gan Ning only brought hundreds of people, I'm afraid there is fraud, and my brother can't be tricked." ”

"The revenge of killing my father is not shared!" Zhang Quan shouted, "I'm waiting for a dignified Xiliang man, if I have revenge, I will take revenge, if I don't fight, won't I be laughed at by the people of the world, so what kind of face do I have to go to see my ancestors and ancestors?" ”
