Chapter 264: Still Scolding? I've been warned!
"Military Division," Cao Chun and Guo Jia are compatible at this moment, there are 3,000 tigers and leopards to ride, plus 5,000 foot soldiers here, and there are many soldiers and horses hidden in ambush in the mountains.
But he didn't think Yuan Shao would send troops.
"Previously, Yuan Jun had already been scared, and I am afraid that it would be difficult to gain any more."
"Whether he has won it or not, in fact, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if he can't come out or not," Guo Jia drank a bowl of pain, threw off his sleeves in a dashing manner, and smiled brightly and slightly wildly, "We can come here, and walk around outside the city, scold Yuan Shao, let the thousands of defenders in the city, and the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the city know, we have already won!" ”
Won again.
Cao Chun pulled his mouth in embarrassment, I don't know how many times I've heard this, I've won too much recently, and I've been winning.
"Then I understand."
Cao Chun sighed, looked up at Guo Jia, and said with a smile: "The lord left me to wait here, and he has led the army to retreat slowly, in fact, it is to pretend to scold and lure Yuan Shao, let him know that we have set up an ambush to lead him out of the city to fight, if he comes, he will be hit by an ambush, if he does not come, our army will have enough time to retreat safely." ”
"That's right."
The corners of Guo Jia's mouth are hooked, exactly so.
But in fact, in addition, there is another reason, before leaving, Cao Cao also said to him personally: "Yuan Shao's martial arts, you can scold it again, remember it in Gong Cao, let me hear what you scolded them in Yecheng back then, and ran away angrily." ”
In fact, these words are no longer the goal of military strategy, but the friendship between the two.
Maybe the tiger and leopard ride together to become famous is also part of their happiness together.
Guo Jia and Cao Chun drank all night, and they were not too secretive, if they had the intention to investigate, they could see that there were many fewer guards and outposts in their camp.
However, there was no Yuan army attacking the camp, and the night was safe, and Yuan Shao endured this breath.
In the early morning, when it was bright, Guo Jia was draped in a black hat, looked at the head of Liyang City from a distance, sneered in high spirits, and ordered Cao Chun to withdraw to the rear.
In this way, Yuan Shao's rear should be chaotic.
In this situation, if you can endure it for a while, you are not a hero, and the real best solution should be to give an order to attack, but it is only a huge feint, and in fact you don't come to risk robbing the camp, so that you can boost its momentum and not be lifeless.
Guo Jia's own plan is not a seamless plan, and naturally there is a solution, but when he saw that the civil and military forces in Liyang City were so stupid at this moment, he was actually much more relieved.
About half an hour after Cao's army withdrew, the dense fog between the riverbank and the mountains and forests gradually dissipated, and Yuan Shao climbed to the top of the city to look into the distance, and saw that Cao's banner was no longer there, and the distance was empty.
Only then did I know that Cao Cao had evacuated.
Bang!
He slammed the wall, gritted his teeth, and an inexplicable anger surged up, but he still forcibly suppressed it.
Cao thief is insidious, he actually used this trick to confuse my ears and eyes, Guo Jia pretended to scold angrily in front of the battle, in fact, to buy time for Cao Cao's army, so that he could clean up the mess in the back, at this time, all the homeless people in this area should be taken away.
I am afraid that the fertile land between the cities will also be destroyed, and a lot of family property will be taken away.
As far as I was concerned, the damage was not great, and I could only watch him withdraw safely from the city gates, taking with him a large number of people and goods in my territory.
Last night, was it just deliberate, which made me suspicious, and I didn't dare to send troops to attack at will, in fact, it was Cao Jun who needed time to sweep the villages and manors within dozens of miles......
Cao Apu, you lied to me again.
Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and scolded dozens of words in his heart.
Then he barely squeezed out a smile, glanced left and right with a proud expression, and snorted coldly: "You see, I have long known that the Cao army is a fictitious strong formation, but in fact it is the end of the strong crossbow, and it has long been ready to withdraw, our army only needs to stand still, they will definitely not be able to hold it for a long time." ”
"The lord is wise."
"Yes, Wise."
Several strategists looked left and right, and only echoed a few words, but fortunately, there were no stupid people present who couldn't see the situation clearly.
At this time, someone will come and say, "Cao Jun may have wanted to withdraw a long time ago, but last night he just pretended to deter our army", it would be wonderful, and it is estimated that this year will not be good.
"That's it," Yuan Shao breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "Tomorrow send a sentry cavalry to investigate the place where Cao's army has withdrawn, if there is nothing to do, they will be stationed in Liyang, and after the spring ploughing in the coming year, they will be able to attack Cao Cao again." ”
Go back and calculate how much money you have.
……
Slippery County.
After Cao Cao returned, he heard that Zhang Han was also leading the troops, and he immediately became interested, snorted coldly on the spot, and immediately ordered someone to be sent to find him to meet him in the government office.
Immediately afterwards, he ordered Gong Cao and the army to arrive, and the generals who returned to Huaxian County at this time were Cao Chun, Cao Ren and Xiahou Yuanrang, who was originally sitting in the rear.
The generals with foreign surnames are Han Hao, Shi Lian, Li Dian and Xu Ding.
Xu Chu was too lazy to enter the government office, he chose to guard quietly outside, too lazy to take care of the affairs inside.
After Zhang Han arrived, Xu Chu immediately took a few steps forward, pulled him to the corridor next to the entrance of the main hall, and said softly: "Junhou, something is wrong with the lord today, you be careful." ”
"What's wrong?" Zhang Han knew that something was wrong, but Xu Chu actually came to warn him so solemnly, it would be different.
After all, in the past, Xu Chu watched the excitement, and only when he was really angry, he would say a few words, and let him pay attention to his words and face when he went in.
"I don't know," Xu Chu scratched his head and smiled innocently, "It's just that a lot of generals, military advisors, and soldiers have been called, all to see you, I guess there is a feeling of interrogation." ”
"It could be a desertion."
"The merit of killing Wen Chou doesn't seem to be enough to offset it, Junhou, I am optimistic that many clan generals are waiting to see the excitement."
Xu Chu said sincerely, but there was also a little schadenfreude in the corners of his eyes, Zhang Han was sure that this kid probably wanted to see the excitement.
"Tsk," Zhang Han snorted softly, stopping to think outside, not going to go in immediately, so it seems that it is the last battle, the casualties are beyond expectations, and they want me to take the blame.
Zhang Han touched his chin and felt that things were not simple.
But fortunately, Xu Chu was reminded outside, so now, the bargaining chips that were originally intended to be used to bargain with his father-in-law are no longer needed.
It has to be put another way.
Thinking of this, Zhang Han calmed down a little, gave Xu Chu a smile, and then walked into the lobby.
Cao Cao was looking down at the battle report, ignoring him at all, even if he already knew that he had come in, he didn't plan to deal with him.
Zhang Hanbai smiled, and the civil and military forces next to him were also perfunctory, and the atmosphere in the entire lobby was quite embarrassing.
Glancing over, Zhang Han found that Liu Ye was in the queue, standing beside Guo Jia and looking down at the front, standing still.
It must be this kid's complaint, I said that the Confucian students from the scholar clan have too strong self-esteem and can't hurt the slightest, and if they are a little wronged, they will cry for their father and mother.
"Lord, fortunately, I am not dishonored, the danger of Yanjin has been solved, and I have come to ask for credit for Yun Chang."
"Heh," Cao Cao couldn't help laughing after hearing this, "What kind of credit do you want for Yun Chang?" Why don't you give yourself credit? ”
"Dahan Qingting Hou, Dali Temple Sizheng, Nanyang Taishou, black-robed cavalry to join the army, my good son-in-law, Bo Chang loves his son-in-law!"
These titles, one is heavier than the other, and the last "Bo Chang Ai Son-in-law" directly gritted his teeth.
Zhang Han was sweating, and the corners of his mouth pulled a few times, but he was still calm and calm, and said: "After killing Wen Chou, General Guan and Xu Gongming, knowing in advance to prevent the enemy from attacking, came to the rescue, set up an ambush in the valley, severely damaged the enemy army, and won a lot. ”
"This is a great achievement, so far the danger of Yanjin no longer exists, and Yuan Shao's offensive will naturally collapse."
"Yun Chang is definitely a hero, in the influence of the battle situation, he has guarded the safety of the entire left wing of our army, and he will definitely be rewarded."
Cao Cao's face suddenly became pale, this Zhang Han didn't mention himself in the overall situation, only talked about Guan Yu's merits, and he was also very aware of Guan Yu's importance to me.
If so, if the whole army spreads this feat, wouldn't it be equivalent to letting him make meritorious service and repay his kindness, and he can leave without owing each other?
When I was fighting with Yanjin and Yuan Shao in Baima, I had received many letters from the rear, some of which clearly stated that Liu Bei did have intentions and had stepped up his handling of official affairs during his tenure, and devoted himself to government affairs and military affairs many times.
This is also to repay the favor.
The three brothers from Zhuo County, although they have been under the fence for many years and have never had a home, but after all, they are all affectionate and righteous, even if they leave, they will definitely repay their kindness, at least they feel that they are not indebted.
"Well, his merits, let's not talk about it for the time being, let's talk about your problem now," Cao Cao's heart was a mess, he directly put the book on the table, and slowly got up and walked down with his hands behind his back.
stared at Zhang Han with a solemn face, and said in a deep voice: "Do you know how many soldiers and horses you have lost invisibly in this trouble?" ”
"More than 11,000 people."
Cao Cao simply gave a battle report, among the more than 10,000 people, only half of them died, but the remaining half were seriously injured and could no longer go to the battlefield, and they needed to be resettled to support their families and dismissed as people.
After these people are dismissed, they can't make them feel cold, they must be well born, at least the settling-in allowance will be many times the usual.
Five thousand, Cao Cao is enough for a headache, and he takes out so much in one go, except to pry Xiao Liu Xie's treasury, he can't think of any other way for the time being.
So many aftermaths are enough to give him a headache, so today, Cao Cao is determined to give Zhang Han a little punishment, and he must remember the mess caused by this mess.
Of course, if fundamentally speaking, so many people were killed and injured, it was not Zhang Han's sin, but the sin of war, and it was a little unreasonable to impose it on him.
However, it didn't matter, Zhang Bochang's skin was much thicker than the corner of the city wall, and Cao Cao was not worried that he would be crushed by these pressures.
"More than 10,000 ......" Zhang Han lowered his head, as if he was a little touched.
"If it weren't for the fact that you left your post without permission, went deep alone, and went to kill that Wen ugly as a hero, why would this be so?!" Cao Cao once again held accountable, "If it weren't for the fact that you were alone and deep, I wanted to contain Yuan Shao's troops, why bother fighting the next battle?" ”
In fact, Cao Cao had already retreated at that time, and after taking advantage of it, he took advantage of Yuan Shao's recovery and recuperation, and retired to Guandu to garrison, and released the Baima Ferry and the north bank of Yanjin to him, so that Yuan Shao's army could all cross the Yellow River.
But who knows, there are so many victories, if you put aside the loss, Cao Cao actually can't help laughing out loud in the dead of night......
How can there be no loss in the war, when he was chasing Dong Zhuo, he suffered Xu Rong's defeat, and there were more dead and wounded, and he almost died on the battlefield.
Yes, in fact, Cao Cao really didn't feel much distress about the death and injury of the soldiers, after all, Yuan Shao had more casualties there, and he had already scared Yuan Jun in terms of momentum.
"Zhang Bochang, do you admit your guilt!"
Cao Cao shouted loudly, like thunder, and the civil and military atmosphere around the hall did not dare to come out, they all lowered their chins, did not dare to look up, and at the same time looked at Zhang Han with pity, this time it was really angry.
This kid, I see how you will jump in the future, you have not been sad to the depths before, and you have not moved your bones, this time it is completely different, the good situation is like this, before the winter solstice, there are thousands of more people, and you have to pay more bereavement and resettlement property.
Zhang Bochang, if you can't escape this catastrophe with all your family capacity, I'm afraid it's hard to say, but in the future, you will definitely not think about official positions such as generals.
No one dares to use a person who doesn't care about the overall situation so much, and your career is constantly wandering here, rising and falling repeatedly.
Zhang Han nodded and said, "I'm guilty." ”
"Let the lord punish him," Zhang Han clenched his fists, knelt on one knee, looked quite distressed, and said: "The last general is willing to remove all official positions, re-serve as a common man, and scatter all his family property to damage this crime, if it is not enough to calm the morale of the lieutenant general of the army, please beat Han Fifty military sticks in public!" ”
"Hmph."
Cao Cao snorted coldly, that wouldn't be it.
He glanced left and right a few times, and then his momentum softened, and he motioned to Wenwu: "You guys go out first, I have something to say to Bo Chang." ”
"As for how to deal with it, it will naturally be sent to the army and let the soldiers know."
"Yui."
Oh, got it.
Cao Ren, Xiahoudun and other clansmen who have followed Cao Cao for many years and grew up with a bare ass immediately understood what he meant.
Calling us to come, it's been a long time, is it a witness?!
That is, Zhang Han has been scolded, and he has been severely criticized by the lord, don't make trouble with those soldiers in the army who are unhappy, what do you want him to do? !
You just died in battle and lost your comrades, but what Zhang Han lost was the love of the lord!
It's outrageous, you just spoil him! Sooner or later, something bigger will happen!!
Guo Jia, Xun You, Liu Ye and other advisers also glanced at Zhang Han deeply, and didn't dare to say anything more, especially Liu Ye, he originally planned to watch a big drama of heavy punishment, and was full of joy waiting for the prime minister to be angry with him, but he didn't expect to pay it by mistake.
After Wenwu left, Cao Cao walked back and forth several times behind Zhang Han, and an invisible pressure was put on him, and he wanted to turn his head several times, but fortunately he endured it.
In the end, he really felt that his hairs were standing on end, and Zhang Han opened his mouth and asked, "Father-in-law, what are you looking at?" ”
"Oops......" Cao Cao sighed lazily, "I'm looking to see if your neck is hard or not, and how many knives can you block......"
"No other knife can cut in," Zhang Han immediately answered, "But father-in-law, your knife, the back of the knife can cut me." ”
"Shut up, you," Cao Cao impatiently returned to the main seat, and asked Zhang Han to come and sit down, Weng and his son-in-law looked at each other, and the corners of Cao Cao's mouth rose, showing a hint of a smile, and said with concern: "Coming back from the north bank of Yanjin, how about the loss?" The black-robed rider didn't lose too much, right? ”
Zhang Han nodded: "It's not big, dozens of rides." ”
"But Guan Yunchang's merits are indeed indispensable."
"Why do you boast to him in public?" Cao Cao became suspicious when he heard this, "Before, didn't you decide to take away his merits and make him lose his kindness?" ”
"Because, the son-in-law suddenly felt that it was not impossible to think differently."
Cao Cao's eyes were stunned, and he said intently: "Let's hear it." (End of chapter)
