Chapter Seventy-Seven: Capturing Cao Ren Alive Second Watch
Chapter Seventy-Seven: Capturing Cao Ren Alive
The arrival of Zhou Yu relieved Pang Tong's troubles, because Pang Tong only had one general, that is, Zhang Fei, and if he wanted to capture Cao Ren and Yu Ban alive, he had to be two!
Zhou Yu said: Brother Shiyuan, although you and I are both military advisors, but Cao Ren is coming, you don't have to be polite to me, tell me about your plan, what can I help with!
In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Lao Luo wrote Zhou Yu as a cautious eye, jealous of people, especially jealous of Zhuge Liang, and in the end, Lao Luo wrote Zhou Yu's death as angry!
The following is a brief introduction to Zhou Yu in history.
(Folks say that Zhou Yu became the governor of Jiangdong at the age of 13.) This is. When Zhou Yu was 13 years old, Sun Jian was not dead. And Sun Ce did not occupy Jiangdong at all!
Zhou Yu was appointed as a Zhonglang general at the age of 24, appointed as a Zhonghu army at the age of 25, and became the left governor of Jiangdong at the age of 33!
Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Lao Luo said that Zhou Yu's jealousy of Zhuge Liang is pure nonsense.
First, Zhou Yu's ancestor Zhou Rong, the official position of the Han Dynasty, Shang Shuling! Great-grandfather Zhou Xing's official position, Shang Shulang. Father Zhou Yi's official position, Danyang is too guarded! It's from an official family!
Second, Zhou Yu is famous for his handsome talent in Jiangdong, that is, he is handsome in modern terms, and he is talented.
Third, Zhou Yu's wife Xiao Qiao is one of the best beauties in Jiangdong. The appearance of the country and the city.
Why do you say Zhou Yu is jealous of Zhuge Liang?
Zhou Yu is not short of money, has status, is handsome, talented, and his wife is also a country and a city. From which point of view, there will be no jealousy of Zhuge Liang!
In the Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms, it is said, "Gongjin is a civil and military strategy, a hero of ten thousand people, and he has a large number of weapons, and he may not be a minister soon." From this, it can be seen that Zhou Yu is broad-minded, and he is not a person who can make people angry!
The cause of Zhou Yu's death was illness and death! )
Pang Tong said: Respectfully, I expected that Cao Ren would come to attack the city tonight, and the mountain pass we only saw in Fancheng and my city was about to be ambushed. Kill him 20,000 horses first!
Then they will inevitably retreat to Fancheng in embarrassment, if we take Fancheng before dawn, when Cao Ren retreats to Fancheng, can we let Cao Ren enter the city, and then ambush the archers everywhere in the city, not afraid that he Cao Ren will not surrender!
Zhou Yu said with a smile, Shiyuan is a good plan! So be it!
I took my 40,000 people to ambush, Yide will take people to attack Fancheng now, after capturing Fancheng, remember to clean the city gate, the flag on the city wall does not need to be changed, otherwise Cao Ren will not be fooled!
As soon as Zhang Fei heard that Cao Ren could be captured alive, okay, I'll go.
Zhang Fei strode out of the tent!
Zhou Yu's archer said to Pang Tong: Brother Shiyuan, I'm going to ambush!
Zhou Yu took his 40,000 people and rushed to the mountain pass! After the whole army was ambushed, Zhou Yu shouted: The whole army must not make a sound, wait for my order, 20,000 crossbowmen will release arrows together!
Liu Bei in Xuzhou got Lu Bu's letter, Liu Bei opened it, sneered on his face, and then hurriedly entered the small courtyard in the back hall.
An old man with gray hair and a wrinkled face, but full of energy, wearing a Taoist robe, drank tea and read books on the stone table in the middle of the small courtyard!
Liu Bei entered the small courtyard and said: Yadi! You see, as you expected, our grain and grass were burned by Xu Shu, fortunately, we used two routes to send grain at the beginning, otherwise Lu Bu would really have to return to Xuzhou!
The old gentleman put down the book and said: The current battle situation is that Li Zhe 200,000 attacks Jiangdong, and the military division is my senior disciple Zhuge Liang, and he sent 100,000 to attack Yuzhou, and Cao Cao's general Cao Ren's 100,000 army attacked Jingzhou, which is very unfavorable to Jingzhou on the surface!
But that's not the case.
Last night, I watched the sky, and Jiangdong was about to change the master. Therefore, Li Zhe will win the war in Jiangdong in the end.
And Cao Ren is reckless, and he is not Pang Tong's opponent at all!
As for Yuzhou, Xu Shu had too few men and horses, and Lu Bu's 40,000 iron cavalry troops could scatter Xu Shu's army. What's more, we also captured 30,000 Yuzhou troops.
You can write a letter to Lu Bu and tell Lu Bu that you can attack Xu Shu, Yuan Shu only has one city, and he can't do anything, he can only wait for death, it's just a matter of early death or late death!
Liu Bei hurriedly wrote a letter to the guards, asking the guards to send it to Lu Bu in Yuzhou as soon as possible!
In Jingzhou, Cao Ren's army of 70,000 had approached the mountain pass.
Cao Ren asked: How long is this mountain pass?
The spy replied: The length of this mountain pass is three miles, and the width is about thirty meters!
Yu Ban said: General, be careful, what if there is an ambush?
Cao Ren ordered: The whole army ran out of the mountain road!
Zhou Yu looked at the mountain pass that Cao Ren's army had entered running, and waited until Cao Ren's army had crossed two-thirds of the mountain pass. Zhou Yu shouted: Shoot the arrow!
20,000 crossbowmen lit rockets and shot at Cao Ren's army!
Cao Ren saw that he had been ambushed! Shout loudly, quick, rush out of the mountain pass, you can't retreat, if you withdraw, there will be more casualties!
Cao Ren took his soldiers and horses and rushed out of the ambush circle, and the cries of the mountains and valleys, the heart-rending shouts shook the sky!
Zhou Yu knew that until the arrow ran out, Zhou Yu shouted loudly: The whole army will follow me down the mountain, kill!!!!!
Cao Ren's army saw people rushing down the slope from all directions, Cao Ren's army was already blinded by arrows, and they didn't have the psychology to fight Zhou Yu at all, they were all running away!
In this battle, Zhou Yu's ambush killed Cao Ren's army of 30,000. There were 20,000 wounded, and 20,000 people escaped, and only more than 10,000 people followed Cao Ren!
Cao Ren whispered to the ban: I should really listen to you, 100,000 troops, how can I explain to the prime minister!!
Yu Ban didn't say anything, it's too late to say anything now!
Cao Ren took more than 10,000 people to the gate of Fancheng!
The guards shouted: General Cao is back to the city, open the city gate quickly!
After the city gate was opened, Cao Ren and Yu Ban entered Fancheng with their heads down, more than 10,000 people were disgraced and listless! And he entered the city gates.
Many defenders came down from the city. After blocking the exit.
On the four sides of the city wall, tens of thousands of people drew their bows at Cao Ren and prepared to shoot arrows!
Zhang Fei shouted: Cao Ren, don't kneel down for your grandfather Zhang soon!
Cao Ren looked at the city tower, his eyes were bigger than a cow, and he was surprised: Why are you!!
Zhang Fei said with a smile: Your four-sided broken lock formation made my old Zhang broken, and your Fancheng also made my old Zhang broken, as for your Cao Ren's life is also in my hands!
Yu Ban looked at the tens of thousands of archers around him, and said to Cao Ren: We are defeated, we are completely defeated!
Zhang Fei shouted: Those who descend will not be killed!
All Cao Ren's soldiers looked at Cao Ren, and Cao Ren looked at himself, none of these soldiers had any weapons still on the ground, and they all looked at Cao Ren, which means that Cao Ren gave an order, even if he died, they would follow Cao Ren!
Cao Ren looked at all this, looking at the trust of his soldiers in him and their loyalty to him, Cao Ren burst into tears, threw the big knife to the ground and said to the ban: Take care of my soldiers, I'll go first!
Yu Ban saw that Cao Ren pulled out his waist sword, and just wanted to wipe his neck on his neck, Yu Ban knocked out Cao Ren's sword with a spear next to him!
Yu Ban said angrily: You Cao Ren is also a general, your death is over, but you let me bear everything alone, you Cao Ren is too irresponsible!
Zhang Fei was also stunned just now, and then said: Cao Ren, today my old Zhang is impressed with you!
I really want to let you go, but the military advisor ordered me to take you back, so I'm sorry for you, but I promise you, on my chassis, you will be fine!
Zhang Fei walked down the tower, and Yu Ban ordered all the soldiers to lay down their weapons!
Zhang Fei tied up Cao Ren and Yu Ban, and then ordered the soldiers to move all the money, food, and population of Fancheng to Nanyang County!
