Chapter 42 Nanye crosses the sea to occupy Yizhou Yuan Shu fakes to call himself emperor 8
When Cao Cao learned that Yuan Shu was coming to attack, he set up his troops and horses to prepare for the battle. On the other hand, he wrote to Liu Bei, Sun Ce, Liu Biao and Nan Ye and invited them to send troops together, but they had their own words.
Liu Bei came to join Cao Cao because Xuzhou was occupied by Yuan Shu. Now Yuan Shu has arrived again. Even without Cao Cao's letter, it is inevitable to fight. What's more, Liu Bei is self-respecting about the Han Dynasty. How can the emperor sit idly by and ignore it?
Sun Ce became independent from Yuan Shu and took Yuxi as his hostage. After Yuan Shu became emperor, everyone knew about this matter. Cao Cao used this matter to persuade Sun Ce to send troops and lured him in the land of Yangzhou.
Although Liu Biao and Yuan Shu did not have a positive conflict, Yuan Shu had been secretly provoking Sun Jian and Liu Biao to fight with each other. Now Yuan Shu has abolished Liu's emperor, and Cao Cao also wrote to Liu Biao and asked him to attack Yuan Shu together.
Nan Ye also got Cao Cao's letter here, to the idea that Yuan Shu was rebellious, just like Dong Zhuo and Li Wei, and even more than the two of them. Unexpectedly, he abolished the emperor himself to claim the throne, which was difficult for God. He also said that Nan Ye was dedicated to the public and rescued the thief several times. He asked Nanye to send troops together to fight against the traitors and thieves. Although Nan Ye did not say no between the lines, there was also a faint meaning of accusing Nan Ye of being inhumane at the beginning.
After reading Cao Cao's letter, Nan Ye took Sun Ce's letter again. It can be seen that Sun Ce has the intention to send troops to fight against Yuan Shu, but he is a little afraid of Yuan Shu's power, so he invited Nan Ye to send troops together.
Guo Jia and other Nan Ye read the letter and said, "Now that the mage's big plan has been completed, Yuan Highway will indeed ascend to the throne. Before the return of the mage, we had secretly ordered Xu and Yang to close the darts bureau under Yuan Shuzhi, and the darts gathered in the territory of Sun Bofu. If the mage wants to send troops, he doesn't have to take into account the darts bureau.
Nan Ye looked at the three masters Guo Jia, Jia Xu and Xi Zhicai with approval, and these three people saved a lot of attention in Nanye. He said to the three, "Although the Han Dynasty has survived in name, Yuan Shu's claim to be emperor is really easy to make people angry. Since I sent troops to fight against Dong Zhuo and Li Yu before, I naturally have a share in this fight against Yuan Shu. However, there is no need to send too many troops this time, which will damage my soldiers and horses. I don't know how many darts engineers evacuated from Xuzhou and Yangzhou?
Xi Zhicai said, "There are 3,000 bodyguards in the two places, 500 military horses, and there is no shortage of heavy food and grass."
Nan Ye said, "Three thousand soldiers and horses are enough! This time, I can only take a few members of the three battalions* to go there. You can wait to help me with my official duties in Jiaozhou.
Jia Xu said, "If the mage does not lead the army, please take one of the three of us there, or you can also serve as a counselor or two."
Nan Ye shook his head and smiled and said, "This time, he sent troops with Cao Mengde and Sun Bofu. Needless to say, Zhou Gongjin under Sun Bofu is also a wise man. In this battle, I will not bring a single soldier, and only these two can win the Yuan Highway."
Guo Jia smiled and said, "Wen He's intention is not to worry about defeat, but that the mage will suffer losses at the hands of the two allies."
Nan Ye said, "In this battle, I neither plotted the emperor, the jade seal, or the land of the two states. What I want is nothing more than Yuan Shu's head and the name of righteousness. Cao Mengde and Sun Bofu will not be so stingy, will they?"
Xi Zhicai was worried and said, "The person we are worried about is that after the death of Yuan Shu, the two and the mage turned against each other."
Nan Ye said, "You don't have to worry about this matter. Although Sun Bofu's land borders us, it is straightforward and will not be secretly poisoned. Cao Mengde has the resources of treacherous heroes, but he knows the general trend of the world and will never have a bad relationship with us at this time. Just wait and rest assured."
Seeing that Nan Ye was so sure, he would no longer persuade him. After a few days of reunion with his family, Nan Ye led the six members of Dian Wei, Zhou Cang, Zhao Yun, Yang Xiong, Zhang Baiqi and Ma Yunqi to Qu'a to join the bodyguard and Sun Ce.
When Nan Ye sent troops, Cao Cao and Yuan Shu had already fought in one place. Yuan Shu's soldiers were divided into five routes, and Cao Cao's troops were also divided into five routes. Xiahou Dun's army was against the bridge, Xia Houyuan was against Chen Ji all the way, Li Dian was against Lei Bo all the way, and Chen Lan was Lejin's enemy all the way. Cao Cao personally led Xu Chu, Cao Ren, Cao Hong and Xun Yu to fight Zhang Xun in the future.
The other four people fought separately and defended the city, saying that Cao Cao sent troops all the way to fight. After two rounds, Cao Cao came out and scolded, "Yuan Shu's husband called himself emperor, and he rebelled against the Han Dynasty! Why don't you come down early when you wait for the abuse?
Zhang Xun said, "The Son of Heaven is virtuous, and the world is in chaos. Because I know the fate of my Lord, I will meditate with my Lord. Now that my lord has ascended the throne and submits to the world, you deserve to die until you resist the heavenly soldiers. After saying that, the flying horse came to fight against Cao Cao.
When Cao Ren saw Zhang Xun coming out, he rode out and intercepted Zhang Xun. He fought with swords and guns for more than 30 years. When Cao Ren saw that the enemy could not defeat Zhang Xun, he turned around and was defeated. Cao Cao, who suppressed the battle, also retreated when he saw Cao Ren's defeat. Zhang Xun chased after him with many soldiers and horses.
When Zhang Xun chased four or five miles of road, he saw Cao's heavy and flags abandoned on the road, and even more determined that Cao Cao was not defeated by himself. Just as he was about to clean up the heavy vehicles and continue to chase, he heard a drum sound, and countless ambush appeared on the hillsides on both sides of the road. Xu Chu was on the left and Cao Hong on the right. The two led the soldiers to release a burst of rockets on the hillside. The heavy car was full of firewood and grass, and the flag was also very flammable.
Although the fire that had just started did not burn many Zhang Xun soldiers, the fire and thick smoke all over the mountains suddenly disturbed the army's hearts. Xu Chu and Cao Hong rushed down the mountain together in the chaos of Zhang Xun's soldiers. Cao Cao and Cao Ren, who had just been defeated, also returned to kill them. Zhang Xun was killed and fled.
Cao Cao led the army and chased him all night. When he saw that he was about to catch up with Zhang Xun, suddenly a man and a horse came out. The first general held 50 catties of three-pointed two-edged knives, which was Yuan Shu's general Ji Ling.
Xu Chu shouted and held a phoenix-mouthed knife and split Ji Ling. Na Jiling is the first fierce general under Yuan Shu, and he is extremely powerful. Waving a three-pointed and two-edged knife to meet Xu Chu. Two swords hit one place and sparked, and the two fought for 30 rounds without winning or losing.
Cao Cao chased Zhang Xun all night, and the soldiers and horses were tired and supported by a morale. If he fought for strength, he would never be as good as this new force led by Ji Ling. Cao Cao saw that Xu Chu could not defeat Ji Ling for a while, so he ordered Cao Ren and Cao Hong to fight together. At this time, if he did not fight quickly, he was likely to lose to Ji Ling here.
Ji Lingyong was not as good as Xu Chu. He also relied on his physical strength. Xu Chu ran all night and fought alone with Xu Chu for dozens of rounds. However, even if this is the same, Ji Ling is by no means Xu Chu's opponent, and it is already very difficult at this time. How dare he fight again when he sees Cao Ren and Cao Hong coming again? He turned around and retreated to the array.
Xu Chu, Cao Ren and Cao Hong followed Ji Ling to rush straight into the army. The three formed a triangular formation and rolled up a bloody storm. Cao's army saw that his general was so brave and morale was boosted. At this time, Cao Cao personally rushed to the front to encourage the soldiers and led the army to start a war with Ji Ling's army. The two sides killed a dark place, and Ji Ling was finally defeated and left.
Cao Cao defeated Zhang Xun first and then Ji Ling. It was said that it was a rare victory, but he did not dare to stop. As the commander-in-chief of the three armies, Cao Cao misses not only the people in front of him, but also the other four people. Cao Cao knew that his strength was not as good as Yuan Shu. The other four people either defended the city or kept harassing and restraining the enemy. None of them could defeat Yuan Shu all the way. Therefore, Cao Cao put the victory and defeat on his own road soldiers. Only when he wins a big victory can he save the other four roads.
Ji Ling was defeated, and Cao Cao led the army to chase him again. At this time, Cao Jun was already at the end of the crossbow, and his physical energy was severely consumed. They were gritting their teeth and staring at the back of the enemy's escape in front of them with red eyes. As long as the sword could reach the other party, it would be cut down with a knife.
Seeing that this pursuit was so hard, Cao Cao couldn't help praying in his heart that Yuan Shu should stop sending troops. However, he was afraid of something. When Cao Cao led his troops to a mountain pass, another army arrived behind the mountain. At the opening of the door flag, a team of military horses hit the dragon and phoenix sun and moon flags, with four buckets and five squares of banners, golden melon and silver axes, yellow and white, and under the cover of Huang Luo's golden umbrella, Yuan Shu was dressed in gold armor and hung two knives on his wrists. He stood in front of the battle and scolded: "Cao A'an dares to resist the heavenly soldiers? Why don't you get off the horse and die when you see me?"
Cao Cao couldn't help but complain about the appearance of Yuan Shu. But if you escape at this time, you will only lose worse. Seeing Yuan Shu showing off his power, Cao Cao put on the emperor's airs in front of him. He immediately turned his eyes and said to Xu Chu, "Zhongkang, go to the front to fight against the generals, not to win quickly, but only to be undefeated, and try his best to delay, so that the soldiers can have a chance to breathe."
Xu Chu was ordered to say, "Yuan Shu's child claims to be rebellious. How dare he fight with me for 300 rounds?"
When Yuan Shu saw that Xu Chu was eight feet tall and ten waists, one of them could stand up to two burly. How dare he go forward to fight? But he refused to lose face and said, "You are a nobody, do you deserve to compete with me? Who will take it down?"
As soon as Yuan Shu's words fell, Li Feng was shot out of the lower part of the tent and said, "Look, I will capture this man and present it to your majesty." After saying that, he urged the horse to fight with Xu Chu in the battle.
Compared with Xu Chu, Li Feng is a nobody. If Xu Chu hadn't been ordered by Cao Cao, he would have been able to kill Li Feng within ten rounds. However, Xu Chu deliberately delayed and fought with Li Feng for more than 40 times.
The two were killing "inexinable". Suddenly, Yuan's operation was in chaos, and a man and a horse were killed from behind the mountain. When the first general was holding the Qinglong Yanyue knife, it was Guan Yu and Guan Yunchang. Behind Guan Yu, Zhang Fei held eight snake spears, and Liu Bei killed him with two swords. Three soldiers rushed into Yuan Shu's army as if they were in a no-man's land.
When Cao Cao saw Liu Bei's soldiers overjoyed, he led the troops to rush forward. Xu Chu no longer procrastinates at this time and cuts the back of Li Feng's hand with a knife. At that time, Li Feng abandoned his gun and left. Yuan Shu was defeated by Cao Cao and Liu Bei.
After Yuan Shu withdrew, Cao Cao set up camp and took a temporary rest. He invited Liu Bei to enter the camp to have a banquet together and ask about Liu Bei's uprising.
It turns out that Liu Bei has settled in Yuzhou to prevent Yuan Shu since he defected to Cao Cao. This time, Yuan Shu raised 200,000 soldiers and horses to attack, and Liu Bei only had 6,000 or 7,000 soldiers and horses. How could he be Yuan Shu's opponent? We can only defend the county seat.
Although Cao Cao took Liu Bei in, he was on guard. How could he give Liu Bei a big city? As a result, Yuan Shu ignored the small county seat guarded by Liu Bei at all. He went straight around the city and went straight to several large counties and counties in Yanzhou, looted all the way.
When Liu Bei saw Yuan Shu walking around the city, he left 2,000 soldiers and horses to defend the city, and led 5,000 people to follow Yuan Shu's army to wait for the opportunity. Today, it happened that Yuan and Cao fought, so Liu Bei picked up a bargain and blew up Yuan Shu**.
