Chapter 45: Are you still competing for the stream? To fight or not to fight?

Not long after, many civil and military forces in Tanxian County were present, and the generals were quickly ordered to reorganize the army.

Including Cao Cao's cultivation and recuperation in Yanzhou, the accumulation of troops, and the intention of Zang Ba of the Kaiyang garrison, have all been clearly investigated.

As for Yuan Shu, as long as he fights, he will definitely find an opportunity to enter Yanzhou and threaten the land of Yanzhou from the south to the north.

Similarly, Yuan Shao is now fighting with Gongsun Zhan, even if he has the opportunity, he will not rush to help Cao Cao.

As long as the timing is good and the soldiers and horses are fast enough, they can have an excellent reason to enter Yanzhou.

Que Xuan usurped the Han?!

Not really!

Xiao Pei's own subordinate generals have already controlled Que Xuan and others, and at this time, in the name of his usurpation of the Han, let the rest of the soldiers and horses enter Yanzhou, and he justifiably entered the name of quelling the rebellion and eliminating the thieves, and the name of the Han Dynasty!

What can Cao Mengde do to me?!

Tao Qian finished talking about his strategy at this time, which made many core civil and military forces in front of the hall suddenly amazed, a rebellion that was planned not long ago and should have been quelled a long time ago, but such a plan could be led behind it.

If it really happens, as long as the Danyang soldiers are fast enough, they can occupy Xiaopei, and at the same time attack to the south, and it is said that the usurper thief fled into Yanzhou.

Cao Cao has just passed the New Year, how can he react quickly?

When he arrived, I was afraid that Qian County was already in his pocket.

In this way, Yuzhou is also a thief area, and if you join forces with Yuan Shu, you can gain a firm foothold and stand firm in the southern part of Yanzhou to divide Cao Cao's forces.

Good strategy.

No one refused, only those who were silent.

Among the scholars, because of Tao Qian's policy of governing Xu, the person promoted was named Chen Deng, who was the son of Chen Gui and had a high reputation in the territory.

Also a young man.

He is good at governing Tuntian and putting money and grain and grass into his hands, and the scholars have funded Tao Qian a lot over the years, and they have also recommended a lot of talents from the Chen family.

Basically, the famous people in the territory, except for the Zhuge clan, who had long been hidden, have all been recruited into the curtain and become officials in various places.

Among them, it belongs to his Chen family's hard work.

Chen Deng was born handsome, his eyebrows were like a sword, handsome and elegant, his hair was tied on Jinxian's crown, neat and neat, and he was wearing a brocade robe with black as the base and red as the main one.

When he was suddenly called, he already knew that something big might be happening, but he didn't expect it to be such a big event.

It was actually to invade Yanzhou, and it was in the name of Que Xuan's rebellion, if I remember correctly, last winter, Que Xuan's rebellion had already been secretly suppressed.

But he has not been on the table for the emperor of Chang'an, in order to make merits.

I also thought that the lord no longer needed this false name, but only asked for the safety of the people in the territory, hoarded grain and grass for several years, recruited troops and horses, and waited for the situation to change.

Unexpectedly, he wanted Yanzhou.

"Lord, what if Cao Mengde's soldiers and horses come to help very quickly?"

Chen Deng cared about the Chen family, and he also did not dare to rashly put the safety of the entire Shi clan into it.

Tao Qian's face immediately became kind, and he looked at Chen Deng with a slightly cloudy gaze, and said: "Yuanlong, what you are worried about is not unreasonable, but Cao Mengde has always been kind to me, and I have never provoked him, this time it is in the name of a thief." ”

"If he comes here with a large army, I will immediately return with the whole army, hand over the matter of eliminating the thieves to him, and at that time, put the thieves under Que Xuan into Yanzhou, let them be arrested by Cao Mengde, and let him go to Chang'an Tianzi to ask for credit."

Tao Qian smiled more and more kindly, squinted and thought for a moment, and then continued: "Cao Mengde, the family was originally a eunuch, but he was disliked by the scholars, and he sought fame in the troubled times, he would be secretly happy, and then he could no longer pursue it. ”

"This matter is a test or two, if it is successful, it will occupy the south of Yanzhou, and then slowly try to do it."

"If it doesn't work, I'll just lose my military rations, so I don't have anything to fear."

I've thought of every detail.

Even these warriors who are good at guarding and unwilling to take risks can't change my mind.

In the troubled times, the expansion of the territory is all to win the name behind me, I Tao Qian still have ten years to live, if I am only thirty or forty years old, I will inevitably compete with Cao Mengde.

But now, I'm fifty years old.

If it is no longer disputed, it will be washed away by the middle stream, and it will die in the splendid river and disappear.

Now is the best time, at least in ten years, if you can occupy Yan, Henan, Xuzhou three places, dominate the south of the Yellow River.

You can fight with the two brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, and when the time comes, ...... It can be regarded as laying a huge foundation.

"Ladies and gentlemen! The people who came here this time are all my Tao Qian's confidants and civil and military, and the strategy lies in this time, the Han family is declining, the princes are divided, and hundreds of boats are contending! I can't wait to be left behind! I only hope that you will seize the opportunity and not be lazy! ”

"Whoa!"

The loud voice rang out, making Tao Qian nod with satisfaction.

This plan can be used to enter Yanzhou, or it can be retreated.

Cao Mengde, how can you resist!

"I Tao Qian, since the alliance, work together to help the Han, give up the small family to think that the common people, but also have the ambition to help the Han in the general, from this point on, let the world also see my Xuzhou man!"

"Fight, gentlemen! This battle will not be lost! ”

Tao Qian was in high spirits and waved his hand.

Like a huge stone thrown into the surface of a calm lake, it stirred up ripples and rippled in the hearts of everyone.

"Please rest assured!"

"In this campaign, in the name of eliminating thieves and quelling the rebellion, we will take the south of Yanzhou and establish an immortal honor for the lord!"

"Make a contribution, right now!"

"Eliminate the chaos of thieves, take the lead!"

For a while, seven or eight people in the hall, regardless of the martial arts, were excited, and immediately clasped their fists and saluted, and each left.

……

……

Three days later.

It's the same as the entrance to this office.

Tao Qian sat on the bed, his expression depressed and his eyes glazed.

People are confused.

"How can this be ?!!?"

"Huh?! How so! No way!! When pigs fly!!! ”

I'm the first to be there.

I'm still in a lot of battles!

Ah...... I'm fighting for a hair, my Xiaopei lost it on the day he sent his troops!

A total of six small cities in Peng County and Lu County, countless passes, were lost one after another in three days, the army was killed nearly 10,000 people, surrendered thousands, and the rest were all dispersed.

The military newspaper that just arrived today......

Xiao Pei had just sent out his troops, and was immediately ambushed and raided by the tiger and leopard cavalry of the Cao army, and then changed into the clothes and armor of the Xuzhou soldiers and horses, and deceived Xiao Pei City Gate.

After the city gate was opened, the Cao army attacked the city one after another in the name of eliminating thieves, and even coaxed and deceived the Xuzhou soldiers and horses four or five times, and after occupying the city, they immediately opened a warehouse and released grain to collect the hearts of the people.

In just three days, it immediately spread all over the civil strife in Xuzhou, Que Xuan usurped the Han and established himself as the Son of Heaven, in a vain attempt to slaughter the people, and Yanzhou Mu Cao Cao led the army to suppress it, in order to support the Han Dynasty and clear the vast wilderness, it was to treat the displaced people with generosity and benevolence.

The local merchant Jia clan did not know what to do, so they could only call out the tsunami to meet the Cao army, and even recruit food and soldiers, they were all enthusiastic.

Just three days.

The news reached Tao Qian's ears in a row.

Others are stupid.

At this moment, the person standing in front of him was still the young Chen Yuanlong.

is still wearing that dark brocade robe, but his face is cold and solemn, and he looks helpless.

After a long time, the stunned Tao Qian raised his head blankly, leaned over in a daze and asked, "So, I still have to set up a wine feast, beat gongs and drums, and thank him Cao Mengde?" ”

Chen Deng closed his eyes.

A deep sigh.

"It's more than thank you...... You have to show the Son of Heaven to show his merits, ask for a knighthood for him, and even give him military rations to thank him, otherwise the lord's reputation will be ...... in the future."

"Ugh...... Alas...... Alas......"

Before Chen Deng finished speaking, Tao Qian's old face was swollen and red, grabbed the clothes in his heart, and slowly lay down.

Seeing this scene, Chen Deng's face was instantly full of disgust, and his eyes were wrinkled into a slit.

If you want to get sick, you should hurry up, okay?

I'm afraid that it hurts and I slowly lean down, absolutely.

I could see something was wrong!

It's foolproof.

Also, also, return to Yanzhou, and retreat can be complete.

You see that it is not all right now, half of Xuzhou will be requisitioned for grain, and we still have to say "thank you"!!

Oh my God.

Who would have thought that Cao Jun had been waiting outside for a long time, ambushing and squatting, waiting for Xiao Pei to send troops......

If it's any later, everyone will have to go back after the ambush.

This is definitely a rumor that has long been leaked.

But Que Xuan usurped the Han, how strict it was, if it weren't for his henchmen to tell us, we wouldn't know, how did Cao Mengde know? !

This person, this person really uses soldiers like a god, can he smell the fighter plane?!

"Alas, Yuanlong, I don't see anyone, I don't eat, I don't drink...... Let me rest for a while, and ask the medical officer to come and see the watch, and trouble your father Chen Gui to write a ...... for me."

At this moment, Tao Qian had his back to Chen Deng, slowly curled up on the bed, sighing and preparing to sleep.
