Chapter 47 Cao Yuan's soldiers crossed the South Pass and jointly passed the five levels (10
The morale of Yuan Shao's soldiers guarding the partial camp was low and people were panicked. Hearing that the main camp refused to come to save him, how could there be a reason to fight to the death? They abandoned their camps and were defeated. Gao Lan and Cao Cao fought together overnight and killed countless enemies until dawn. Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses lost tens of thousands of people, and the defeated soldiers of each battalion all shrank in the battalion.
Xun You offered advice: "Yuan Shao and his soldiers are like frightened birds. The lord can threaten to transfer people and horses to get sour dates, attack Ye City, and then take Li Yang to cut off Yuan's return. Yuan Shao must be panicked when he heard about it. When his troops go out of the camp to refuse me, we can take advantage of his troops to attack it, and Yuan Shao's battalion can be broken.
Cao Cao used his tricks and ordered soldiers of all sizes to threaten to cut off Yuan Shao's return road, attack his capital, and besiege Yuan's army without food. Yuan Shao was shocked and ordered his eldest son Yuan Tan to divide his troops into 50,000 to save Ye City, and his third son Yuan Shang to divide his troops to save Li Yang with 50,000 troops.
As soon as Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses moved, he was detected by Cao Cao. Immediately, the soldiers and horses came out and took Yuan Shao's battalion directly. Yuan Shao had just reduced his troops, and the battalion sergeants had no fighting spirit and ran away. Yuan Shao only cared about the division of troops to return to help. Cao Cao might as well come to rob the village again. At present, he was too late to wear armor and escaped from the camp in single clothes. Guo Tu, Fengji and other close ministers and advisers followed closely.
Cao Cao, Nan Ye, Guan Yu, Xu Chu, Xia Hou Dun, Xia Hou Yuan, Cao Ren and Li Dian each led eight ways to catch up with Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao abandoned his car and fought with gold and silk, and only led more than a thousand officers and soldiers to cross the river and fled. Cao Cao's army and horses were prevented from being chased by the heavy weight, so he had to chase and kill Yuan Shao soldiers who had not crossed the river, and restrain their heavy wealth.
In this battle, Cao Cao killed more than 80,000 people of Yuan's army, blood flowed through the ditch, and countless Yuan Shao drowned. Cao Cao, who won a complete victory, first divided the golden treasure into Nanye and rewarded the soldiers. Everyone was happy.
Just as Cao Cao celebrated his achievements, Cheng Yu found a bunch of letters from Yuan Shao's abandoned books and documents, all of which were secretly written by Cao Cao Cao's generals.
Li Ru said on the side, "You can check the names one by one according to the letters and kill them."
Cao Cao said, "Before the war, I was still afraid of Yuan Shaoqiang, not to mention others?" So he ordered to burn the letter and no longer pursue it. Those generals who had an affair with Yuan Shao no longer had two hearts when they saw that Cao Cao was so convinced.
However, it was said that Yuan Shao's officials were defeated and led the remnants to rush to the north bank of Liyang, and the general Jiang Yiqu came out of the village to welcome him. Yuan Shao sighed and said the story.
When Jiang Yiqu heard the news, he sent several soldiers to recruit the scattered soldiers. When the defeated soldiers heard that Yuan Shao was still there, they gathered again. Although there are tens of thousands of soldiers gathered together, they have long lost their previous power. Yuan Shao discussed withdrawing from the army and returning to Jizhou.
Yuan Shao's military saw that hundreds of thousands of people were defeated by Cao Cao. Now only tens of thousands of people have no morale. Who dares to fight? It was unanimously agreed that Yuan Shao would withdraw his troops. Yuan Shao rectified the army and horses and stayed in the barren mountains at night.
In the middle of the night, Yuan Shao heard a cry far away from the account. Yuan Shao got up and paid the account, but did not disturb the soldiers and eavesdropped privately. It turned out that the defeated army gathered together, telling the pain of losing their brothers and brothers, and each of them beat their chests and cried. Yuan Shao couldn't help crying when he heard this. He hated Cao Cao and wanted to take revenge again.
When Cao Cao saw that Yuan Shao's soldiers were defeated and took advantage of the victory, Cao Cao's army crossed the river and entered Liyang. For the time being, he suspended his troops and Zhang Bang Anmin. Some local people heard that Cao Cao and Nan Ye soldiers came to offer wine and food.
When Cao Cao saw that some of the people had white hair, he sat down and asked, "How old is your father-in-law?"
Although the old man was old, his eyes were not blind, and his ears were not deaf. He replied loudly, "The prime minister is nearly 100 years old."
Cao said, "My father-in-law is at such an age. My soldiers disturb my father-in-law's neighbors. I'm very uneasy. Don't blame my father-in-law."
The old man said, "The prime minister and the national teacher are saints from heaven. How dare we blame them?"
Cao Cao was very happy to hear that the old man had juxtaposed himself with Nanye as a saint and asked, "How do you say this?"
The old man recalled: "At the time of Emperor Huan, Yin Kui, a native of Liaodong, was good at astronomy. He stayed here at night and said to the old man and others: Huang Xing was seen in the dry elephant and was shining here. Fifty years after the omen, a saint will come here. It has been 50 years since I was old. Yuan Ben first restrained the people, and the people complained about it. The prime minister and the national division promote the soldiers of benevolence and righteousness, and hang the people for the crime. The battle of Guandu broke through the millions of people at the beginning of Yuan. It was in line with the words of Yin Kui. We and other people can hope to be peaceful.
Cao Cao was overjoyed to hear this and ordered people to take wine, food, silk, gold and silver and give it to the elderly and the people. Compared with the gifts, the gold and silver obtained by the elderly and villagers were more valuable, and they thanked them repeatedly.
Nan Ye couldn't help laughing in his heart when he saw the situation. It is said that people become refined. Unexpectedly, this 100-year-old man fooled Cao Cao, who was famous for his cunning. Cao Cao Cao, who coaxed him, was willing to happily make a loss-making deal.
Nanye, who was curious, couldn't help taking a look at the star skill and found that the old man was really not a hermit, and his intelligence was only 60. Although it was not low, it was far worse than Cao Cao. It seems that data can't tell everything, and some people's life experience can never be measured by data.
Cao Cao saw the old man retreating and ordered the three armies: "If there is anyone who goes to the countryside to kill the people's chickens and dogs and destroy the people's crops, such as murder!" As soon as this order was issued, the military and civilians were shocked.
The centenarian's words did make Cao Cao happy for two days, and he felt that he was also a saint who could be side by side with Nanye. But two days later, he was unhappy again. Because Cao can't confirm whether the saint in this prophecy refers to himself or Nanye, or both of them.
There is a saying that one mountain does not allow two tigers. Cao Cao feels that if both of them are saints, the last one to compete with him for the world must be Nan Ye. There is another layer of taboo on Nan Ye in my heart.
When Cao Cao rectified the army and the people, Yuan Shao had returned to Jizhou. Guandu's defeat had a great impact on Yuan Shao, and he was upset and ignored political affairs all day long. When his wife Liu saw Yuan Shao like this, she also heard that the soldiers of Guandu were in danger and almost buried Yuan Shao, so she persuaded Yuan Shao to establish the crown prince.
Although Yuan Shao has many children, the only adult talented people are the eldest son Yuan Tan's character Xiansi, the second son Yuan Xi's character Xianyi, and the third son Yuan Shang's character Xianfu. Yuan Xi has been killed by Nan Ye, and now only Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang have the option. Although Yuan Tan is the eldest son, Yuan Shang is handsome and born by Liu. Yuan Shao likes it very much. Liu also advised Yuan Shao to make Yuan Shang the crown prince, in case he could succeed to the throne.
On the one hand, he is the eldest son, and on the other hand, he is the beloved son. Yuan Shao is not paying attention, which is really a little embarrassing. Then two confidants, Guo Tu and Feng Ji, came to discuss. Since Xu You voted for Cao Cao, Xun Chen has not been treated in front of Yuan Shao. Who let Xun Yu and Xun You work for Cao Cao? Now there are only two of Yuan Shao's four confidants.
Yuan Shao saw the two and said, "Now there are more external troubles, and internal matters must be settled early. I'm looking for you to set up a prince. Although he has the courage to think, he is just right to kill for human nature. Although Xianfu is young, he has a hero's table and respects virtuous people. I want to stand up for him. What do you mean by waiting?"
To Yuan Shao's surprise, Guo Tu and Fengji's two counselors had made friends with the two princes. Guo Tuxin turned to Yuan Tan, and Jixin turned to Yuan Shang, each of whom was their master.
When Guo Tu heard that Yuan Shao wanted to set up Yuan Shang, he objected and said, "It is not at fault that your majesty's children are long-thinking and helping your majesty to command the army. If your majesty abandons the long and young, you can't do this chaotic move.
Fengji heard that Yuan Shao had the intention of establishing Yuan Shang, and saw Guo Tu's opposition, so he said, "I thought what your majesty said was reasonable. The prince should be wise, so that the country and the people can be safe. How can he abandon the virtuous because of his long life?
Yuan Shao himself had no idea and hesitated when he saw that the two counselors held their own opinions. However, he favored Yuan Shang in his own heart, and the two counselors were one-to-one, and Yuan Shao had the intention of establishing Yuan Shang.
Guo Tu is also used to observing words and colors, and it can be seen that Yuan Shao is more inclined to Yuan Shang. He said, "Your Majesty, now that the military power has been slightly defeated after the war, how can the father and son compete with each other again because of the establishment of the prince? If your majesty has no decision for the time being, you might as well pay attention to the strategy of rejecting the enemy first and discuss it later.
Yuan Shao was hesitant and felt that it was impossible to drag on for a while. During the discussion, a subordinate came to report. Yuan Shang led 60,000 troops from Youzhou, Yuan Tan led 50,000 troops from Qingzhou, and his nephew Gao Gan also led 50,000 troops from Bingzhou and gathered in Jizhou to help fight. It turned out that day Yuan Shao ordered Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang to return to the army for rescue, but the two did not meet Cao Cao's soldiers, so they went to the states to recruit troops and came back today. Yuan Shao was very happy when he heard the news. For the time being, he put down the matter of establishing an heir and went to see the three people. He wanted to fight Cao Cao Cao again.
At this time, Cao Cao's peace and people were about to march into the army, so he made a detailed report. Yuan Shao gathered soldiers from four states and got more than 200,000 yuan to the village in Cangting. Cao Cao is now more powerful than before, especially Xu You and Gao Lan, which makes Cao very smooth to attract many Yuan Shao's surrender soldiers for his own use. At the beginning, Cao Cao dared to fight against Yuan Shao's 30,000 to 400,000 people. At this time, Cao Cao also had more than 200,000 horses. How could he be afraid of Yuan Shao? So he also raised the warehouse pavilion and fought against Yuan Shao.
The next day, the two armies faced each other and arrayed each other. Cao Cao led the generals to the battle, and still hid Nan Ye and Guan Yu in the battle as strange soldiers. After the battle of Wuchao, the capture share of Cao Cao and Nan Ye has risen to June 4th. Cao dares not let Nan Ye make contributions again. In addition, Cao Cao also knew that Liu Bei was in Yuan Shao's array and did not dare to let Guan Yu appear. This is why the two of them are used as strange soldiers.
When Yuan Shao saw Cao Cao's appearance, he also led his second son, one nephew and civilian generals to the front of the battle. Cao Cao saw Yuan Shao and said, "Why don't you surrender when you have exhausted your original plan? As long as you return the throne to the Han Dynasty and lead the people to surrender, and I will give you a way to live when I was young. Don't wait for the knife to come back to regret!"
Yuan Shao was furious and was about to send troops to fight with Cao Cao. Yuan Shang wanted to show off in front of his father, so he danced a two-knife flying horse to fight Cao Cao.
When Cao Cao saw that there would be a long time ago, Yuan Shang went back and forth in front of the Mercedes-Benz. Cao Cao frowned and asked, "Who is this?"
Someone answered, "This is Yuan Shao's third son, Yuan Shang." As soon as the words fell, without waiting for Cao Cao to send the general, a general came out with a gun. Cao Cao saw that it was Shi Lian, the general.
Shi Wei bullied Yuan Shang when he was young and heard that he was the son of Yuan Shao, so he was eager to make contributions before he went to the battle. The two horses could not cross each other. Yuan Shang was indeed invincible. He stabbed a knife and stabbed the horse away.
