Chapter 367: Cao Cao guards Yanzhou, and Zhao Yun rushes to help

After Guo Tu entered the city, Gongsun Zhan was also polite and went straight to the point: "You are what Guo Tu is, right?" ”

"Exactly down there." Guo Tu arched his hand at Gongsun Zhan, wanting to continue to show his intentions.

But before Guo Tu could speak, Gongsun Zhan waved his hand directly: "Okay, leave the things behind, you can take your people and get out." ”

At this time, Gongsun Zhan hated Yuan Shao to the extreme, so he didn't have a good face for Yuan Shao's subordinates.

When Guo Tu saw Gongsun Zhan's appearance, he couldn't help but complain in his heart: You deserve to be beaten by my lord to look like a bear now, with your attitude of no one in your eyes, it's strange that you can win.

It's just a complaint, but Guo Tu can't say that.

"General Gongsun, can you listen to the next and finish the words?"

Gongsun Chan snorted coldly when he heard this, and he didn't say anything to be regarded as acquiescence.

Guo Tu hurriedly spoke: "General Gongsun, my lord asked me to come because I wanted to make a temporary truce with you, General Gongsun." ”

"Truce?" Gongsun Zhan frowned slightly: "Yuan Shao, what the hell is going on?" ”

Then, he looked at Guo Tu: "If you don't come today, you can stay." ”

Guo Tu was taken aback, and hurriedly said the words prepared in advance: "Isn't this the autumn harvest imminent, my lord is sympathetic to the people's livelihood and soldiers, and temporarily suspended the army to protect the people's livelihood!" ”

After Gongsun Chan heard this explanation, his brows furrowed even deeper.

As Yuan Shao's old opponent, he really knows the other party too well.

Yuan Shao is also the eldest son of the Yuan family, the head of the family of the fourth and third dukes.

Although he is not a son-in-law, he also relied on the prestige of the Yuan family to pull up the whole team.

As a descendant of the family, Yuan Shao doesn't care about the death or life of the common people.

As a result, Guo Tu said at this time that Yuan Shao was sympathetic to the people's feelings, so he wanted a temporary truce, isn't this nonsense?

Soon, Gongsun Chan realized that Guo Tu's rhetoric was just an excuse for Shi Yuan Shao.

As for the real reason for this truce, Gongsun Chan didn't know and couldn't figure it out.

So he could only promise Yuan Shao first, and then make a plan.

"Then Yuan Benchu, is this really what you mean? Wouldn't you tell me that after the truce, you will mobilize a large army to destroy me in one fell swoop while I am defenseless? ”

Gongsun Chan stared at Guo Tu's eyes, wanting to see some flaws in them.

It's just that Guo Tu's acting skills are excellent, and he didn't give Gongsun Chan a chance at all: "The general is too worried, my father-in-law will not do such a thing." ”

Gongsun Chan couldn't see anything from Guo Tu, so he planned to agree to Guo Tu first.

After all, he was pressed and beaten by Yuan Shao for so long, and he also needed a chance to take a breath.

"Okay, I promised the truce, and after the autumn harvest, I will decide the date of the decisive battle!"

After the agreement was reached, Guo Tu left the gift and left Yuyang with the people.

Soon after Guo Tu and the others left, Gongsun Zhan immediately asked people to follow Guo Tu to see where he went, and at the same time sent scouts to investigate the traces of Yuan Shao's army.

But after all the scouts returned, Gongsun Chan still didn't get news of Yuan Shao's army.

"This Yuan Shao's army, I think he has already left here, but where will he go, is he really going back to the autumn harvest?"

Gongsun Chan couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't want to, and now he still needs to quickly integrate the soldiers and horses in case of emergency.

……

On the other side, Yuan Shao took Yan Liang, Zhang He, Gao Ran and other generals, as well as a group of strategists such as Fu Zhi, and led an army of 100,000 to the south, preparing to attack Yanzhou.

Cao Cao, on the other hand, came to Dongjun a long time ago and personally commanded the army to meet the enemy.

It's just that at this time, Cao Cao's side does not have the kind of general who can lead the troops alone, which leads to Cao Cao, who needs to do everything himself.

Moreover, the scouts sent by Cao Cao have also brought back the news of Yuan Shao's southward journey, so Cao Cao will deploy faster.

Just when Cao Cao was busy, one of his subordinates came down to report: "Great Sima, Zhao Xianfeng is here!" ”

"Zhao Xianxian? Which Zhao Xianxian? Cao Cao was stunned when he heard this.

At this time, Zhao Yun did not experience any particularly big battles, nor did he leave any heroic achievements.

And Zhao Yun has always been low-key, and after being pried over by Cao Ang, he has no sense of existence on weekdays, so Cao Cao didn't remember this young little general.

At this time, Zhao Yun had already arrived.

Zhao Yun saluted Cao Operation: "Yun, I have seen Da Sima, I heard that Yuan Shao wanted to go south to attack Yanzhou, and the major general specially ordered Yun to come to the aid of Da Sima. ”

After Cao Cao saw Zhao Yun, he remembered that he was such a person.

So Cao Cao helped Zhao Yun up and asked, "General Zhao, how many soldiers and horses did you bring with you this time to support?" ”

When Zhao Yun heard this, his face was not red and his heart was not beating: "Only Yun is riding alone." ”

"Huh?" Cao Cao couldn't hold back when he heard this: "Only the general, you are riding alone?" ”

Zhao Yun nodded.

Cao Cao was completely stunned: "Did Zi Xuan let you come?" ”

"Yes, the major general repaired a letter and sent it to General Wenyuan, and the general came to support." Zhao Yun responded.

"Then why did you come alone?" Cao Cao asked puzzled.

Zhao Yun glanced at Dian Wei, and then gave his own analysis: "The last general thinks that the young general is afraid that there will be no one available in front of the battle in front of the big Sima, so he transferred Yun to support." ”

"No one is available? Are you a vegetarian? Dian Wei patted his chest as he spoke, expressing his dissatisfaction with Zhao Yun's words.

Zhao Yun continued: "General Dian Wei needs to protect the safety of the Great Sima, if you are asked to fight in front of the battle, then who will be responsible for the safety of the Great Sima?" ”

Dian Wei couldn't help frowning when he heard this, he had already heard of the ugly reputation of Yan Liangwen in Hebei, and wanted to compete with them.

Moreover, he also felt that only transferring Zhao Yun, a young future who was only twenty years old, was tantamount to giving away someone's head.

In fact, not only Dian Wei felt so, but Cao Cao on the side also felt that if Zhao Yun, a young general, was allowed to fight in front of the battle, wouldn't it be equivalent to letting Zhao Yun die?

It's just that Cao Cao and Dian Wei are embarrassed to say these words, so as not to hurt the heart of this little general.

……

Under Cao Cao's mobilization, Yanzhou freed up 30,000 soldiers and horses and stationed them in Dongjun to resist Yuan Shao's 100,000 troops moving south.

Although the difference in strength is very large, for Cao Cao, he only needs to refuse the city and defend it.

Because his original purpose was not to defeat Yuan Shao, but to delay time.

As long as Cao Ang defeats Yuan Shu and returns to the defense with an army of 300,000, then Yuan Shao's side will naturally be self-defeating!
