Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 478 Stud!

The purpose of Lu Bu's visit is already very clear.

Wei Yan and Xin Pi couldn't help secretly heaving a sigh of relief, "It's a good thing that the worst that was expected didn't happen."

Not only did Lu Bu not embarrass Zhang Liao, but he also specially hosted a banquet for Zhang Liao, Wei Yan, Simpi and others, and also took out the Erguotou that Lu Yan had given him, which he had been reluctant to drink.

During the banquet, Lu Bula said a lot to Zhang Liao, including regret for his ignorance and arrogance, longing for Gao Shun and guilt for Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao was very pleased with Lu Bu's maturity and change. If Lu Bu had been so sensible back then, how could Gao Shun have died in battle? How could Zhang Liao have voted for Cao Cao?
"Unfortunately, we can't go back." Zhang Liao sighed, and together with Wei Xu and others helped Lu Bu, who was drunk, back to his room.

Under the order of Lu Bu, the quartermaster of Pingyuan County gave Zhang Liao enough supplies.

The next day, Zhang Liao led the army all the way west with high spirits and fighting spirit.

Although it is still cold in Jizhou in February, there is no snow anymore.

The soldiers wore iron armor and cotton coats, so there was no problem in keeping warm.

At the beginning of March, the cavalry team arrived at the border of Qinghe County. In order to avoid being discovered by Yuan Shang's spies, all the armor of Cao Jun had to be replaced with the standard armor of Yuan Shao's cavalry.

"Damn, what kind of defense can this leather armor have with a few pieces of broken iron?" A soldier started to complain while holding Yuan Jun's armor.

"That's not true. Wearing this armor, I don't know what to do on the battlefield."

"Now you know how good the general prison is, right? Only the general prison founded by Lu Hussar can produce armor of our level!"

"Oh, I don't want to change the armor."

But complaints are nothing but complaints, and the soldiers put on Yuan Jun's armor as quickly as possible.

"Cao's army is well-armored and its soldiers are well-trained. It is worthy of being the most powerful army in the world!" Xin Pi followed Zhang Liao to patrol the ranks. He also heard the conversations of these sergeants, and his confidence in Cao Cao's unification of the world was even stronger in his heart. up.

After changing the camouflage, the cavalry team set off again.

Five days later, the cavalry team arrived at Qinghe, and Yuan Tan went out to greet them in person.

Since entering Qinghe County, the nominal commander of this cavalry has become Simpi. In front of outsiders, Zhang Liao and Wei Yan have to obey Simpi's command.

Yuan Tan received Simpi first, and then Zhang Liao and Wei Yan.

Seeing Cao Jun's strong soldiers and horses, he was envious, and he became more confident in fighting Yuan Shang in his heart.

Jian'an six years, April.

Hongnong Cao Jun took Zhong Yao as the commander, Zhang Xiu and Ma Chao as the vanguard, and opened the prelude to the recovery of Hedong County.

Cao Jun's soldiers were sharp, and Gao Gan and Hu Chuquan were hard to resist. They retreated from Dayang, and they didn't stand firm until they retreated to Jiang County.

Just when Yuan's forces in Hedong were suppressed, Yuan Tan suddenly sent an army of [-] to raid Yecheng.

Yuan Shang obviously didn't expect that Yuan Tan, who was trapped in a corner, would dare to attack him on his own initiative. Frustrated, he mobilized all the heavy troops of Wei County and Yuan Tan's army to launch a decisive battle under the city of Ye.

Yuan Tan's army was defeated by Yuan Shang, the main general died in battle, and the soldiers fled and surrendered.

Even less than half of them were able to return to Qinghe County in the end.

In order to lure Yuan Shang to attack, Yuan Tan can be said to have spent all his money, and the [-] soldiers were almost all of his troops.

His foundation was already weak, and now he lost about [-] soldiers and killed a general. When Yuan Tan heard the news, the corners of Yuan Tan's mouth and eyes twitched uncontrollably.

Yuan Shang defeated Yuan Tan's army. He, Guo Tu and others decided that Yuan Tan had no spare troops, so they decided to send troops to attack Qinghe County immediately.

In mid-April, Yuan Shangshuai's [-] troops invaded Qinghe County all the way until they besieged Qinghe City.

There were less than [-] defenders in Qinghe City, and all of them had low morale and were sallow and emaciated. It seemed that Yuan Tan's defeat was only a matter of time.

Yuan Shang personally led the army and observed the situation in Qinghe County before the battle.

Just when Yuan Shang was thinking about whether to capture Qinghe City and kill Yuan Tan in one go, bad news suddenly came from Ye City.

"Report!!!"

An orderly soldier stumbled and ran to Yuan Tan's horse in a panic, knelt on one knee and said, "Report! General, there is an urgent report from Ye City. Cao Cao sent troops from the white horse and led an army of [-] to invade Jizhou! "

"What did you say!!!" Yuan Shang's eyes were tearing apart, and a rush of blood rushed straight to his forehead.

At this juncture, Cao Cao actually sent troops!

A personal guard stepped forward to take the secret report from the messenger and handed it to Yuan Shang.

Yuan Shangqiang calmed down and browsed through it in a hurry.

"Damn Cao thief!" Yuan Shang tore the letter paper into pieces, as if tore Cao Cao into pieces.

Seeing that Yuan Tan was about to capture Qinghe, Cao Cao led an army of [-], and with Zhao Yun and Lu Lingqi as the vanguard, he invaded Jizhou.

Guo Tu, who was always by Yuan Shang's side, looked solemn.

Yuan Shang was restless and undecided, so he could only turn his head to look at his mastermind, and asked, "Mr. Wen Ze, what should we do?"

After Guo Tu heard that Cao Jun sent troops, he had already started to think about countermeasures.

When Yuan Shang asked, he already had a rough plan in mind.

Guo Tu suppressed the ups and downs in his heart, pretending to be calm and said to Yuan Tan: "Master, in fact, we don't need to panic."

Seeing Guo Tu's calm and composed appearance, Yuan Tan felt at ease. He cupped his hands and said to Guo Tu: "I also ask Mr. Wen Ze for advice!"

Guo Tu even forced a smile, and said: "Cao Cao just saw the lord and Yuan Tan fighting each other, so he decided to go to Jizhou on the spur of the moment. In a hurry, he must have not prepared much food and supplies at all."

Yuan Shang heard that Guo Tu's analysis made sense, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that Yuan Shang was relaxed, Guo Tu continued to analyze: "Even if Cao Cao can quickly march under Yecheng, but Yecheng is guarded by Shenzhengnan and Fengyuantu, Cao Cao wants to capture Yecheng in a short time. Not realistic."

"What if Cao Cao uses the thunder to destroy the city wall again?"

"What sky thunder?" Guo Tu shook his head and said with a sneer, "It's just a trick played by Lu Yan."

"Oh? Could it be that Mr. Wen Ze already knew something secret?"

"The subordinates secretly sent a lot of spies to Chenliu to inquire about the news. Although we don't know what exactly destroyed the city wall, we can already confirm that it is a new type of weapon.

And it's a weapon that's powerful enough only at close range.That is, it must be buried under the city wall in order to completely destroy the city wall as before. "

Seeing that Yuan Shang was still a little dazed, Guo Tu continued: "When Lu Yan was able to destroy the city wall, he must have used the cover of night to bury this weapon under the city wall.

Because no one in this world except him knows the characteristics of this weapon, so no one can discover his movements at all.

But now that we have preparedness, as long as there are soldiers patrolling the city walls all the time and keeping enough vigilance, it will be almost impossible for Cao Jun to bury new weapons under the city walls. "

Yuan Shang praised: "Mr. is thoughtful, I admire you!"

Guo Tu cupped his hands and said modestly: "Don't dare to be the lord to praise!" Although he was humble on the surface, Guo Tu was extremely proud in his heart.

"So, what Mr. Wen Ze means now"

"Strike the county seat! Take down Yuan Tan in one go, and we will never have any future troubles!" Guo Tu stared into Yuan Shang's eyes and replied decisively.

When Yuan Shang heard the words, he no longer hesitated, nodded immediately and said: "Okay! Just follow what Mr. said!"

Pulling out his sword, Yuan Shang immediately ordered: "All officers and men obey the order! Take down Qinghe City with one go!"

"Whoever kills Yuan Tan will be rewarded with a thousand pieces of gold and made a Marquis!"

"Ho Ho! Kill!"

"Kill! Kill Yuan Tan!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
