People in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Hu and Han respected together

Chapter 337
Liu Bei led his troops northward, and just before entering Langya, he dispatched his confidant general Guan Yu to go straight to Yanzhou with a partial division.

I don't know if I don't go, I'm shocked when I go.

Wherever the army went, where Kaicheng surrendered, Guan Yu occupied half of Yanzhou without a single soldier.

When they arrived in Puyang, they knew nothing about it inside and outside Puyang, so Guan Yu led his army and killed them.

The person who sits in Puyang is Xiahou Dun who has never won a war and never stopped being promoted. He is actually not a first-class general, but as Cao Cao's brother, he is capable of writing and military, and can be in any position.

The disadvantage this time is that he didn't know anything beforehand, and was completely stunned. In terms of leading troops' combat ability, Guan Yu was still higher than Xiahou Dun, not to mention that he was almost a surprise attack.

He resisted to the death in the city, but faced with a steady stream of enemies, he could only escape, full of grief and indignation, he did not go to Cao Cao, but to his brother, Xia Houyuan.

Now Yanzhou is almost out of control, he can't tell who is the enemy and who is his own, but his brother will never betray, and he plans to work together to retake Puyang first, and then retake other places.

It's not that Chen Gong alone can provoke everyone to rebel, but that Cao Cao has done a lot of wicked things, so the backlash came so violently.

Throughout Yanzhou, rebels were everywhere, and only a few cities still had the Cao flag.

At the same time, Qingzhou, Beihai, and Juxian!
Cao Cao was very angry at the military camp outside the city. The point of his anger was not in the crumbling Ju County, nor in Yanzhou, where the rebellion was rampant, but in Liu Bei who sent an envoy to persuade him to retreat, otherwise he would have to use all his troops to fight against Cao Cao to save Kong.

Liu Bei, who had been living in a shabby household before, even though he claimed to be a member of the clan of the Han Dynasty, but there were many clan members of the Han Dynasty, his background was not high, and his reputation was not enough, so he was not convincing at all.

Now that he has become the governor of Xuzhou, Cao Cao was very angry that he dared to teach him a lesson, but a thought moved in his heart, and he came up with a clever plan...

——Waiting for help!
On the Qingzhou battlefield, defeat Liu Bei's Xuzhou army, and then he can take Qingzhou first, then Xuzhou, and take the land of the two states in one fell swoop.

When he was secretly proud of himself, a messenger from Yanzhou completely pulled him back to reality, and he even felt extremely desperate. The messenger was very embarrassed, and even made gestures and said with a mournful face:
"Duke Ming, Guan Yu, Liu Bei's general, has led an army to capture Yanzhou, Chen Gong, Zhang Miao... and I don't know how many others, they all surrendered without a fight, and even Puyang was taken away by them. I heard that General Xiahoudun fled to the border and joined forces with General Xiahouyuan, and asked Ming Gong to return to the rescue!"

Cao Cao suddenly had a splitting headache. He was completely unprepared for this betrayal, and felt extremely chilled. He wanted to hold on, and laughed directly:

"Impossible, absolutely impossible..."

But then, he fell straight backwards, unable to pretend, completely unable to pretend, even believed in himself, how could he deceive others.

People around hurriedly stepped forward:

"Minggong, Minggong..."

"Ming Gong..."

"..."

After a while, Cao Cao calmed down. Unlike Liu Bei, Liu Bei didn't have a counselor by his side, so it was difficult to make a correct decision, but Cao Cao himself was a top strategist.

After all, birth is everything. Liu Bei likes fancy clothes, loves to fight, walks dogs and race cars, and is completely a ranger. Apart from loving wives, Cao Cao is one of the top second generations of Han at the same level as Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu. Qing, on the other hand, is the prefect and the prime minister of the country.

The reserve of knowledge and the training of ability are not at the same level at all, just like Liu Bang, who has no rogue temperament and has a gentleman temperament, meets Xiang Yu, who has no top personal force and has top military talent.

Cao Cao looked left and right and said:

"Li Gan, Li Dian listen to the order!"

Li Gan, Li Dian, uncles and nephews stood up, looked at Cao Cao, saluted and shouted:
"exist!"

Cao Cao looked at them and said:

"You are the big men in Sanyang. You lead a team of elites and come back to help quickly. Go to Chengshi and help me stabilize the people in Yanzhou. As long as the people's hearts are still there, Yanzhou will not be lost!"

Li Gan and Li Dian, the two responded with serious expressions:

"Follow the order!"

Immediately Cao Cao said again:

"Cao Hong, Cao Ren, Le Jin, Yu Jin, gather the army, return to Yanzhou, remember, don't mess up, don't mess up, otherwise, once Liu Bei sends troops to pursue, everything will be over!"

Cao Hong, Cao Ren, Le Jin, Yu Jin, the four of them were relieved to see that Cao Cao was still so calm, and they solemnly replied:

"Follow the order!"

Although Cao Cao's expression is still firm and solemn, his heart is getting darker and darker. He wants to help the big man and save the people of the world, but because of these two ambitions, he lost everything, lost his family, lost Yanzhou, Chen Gong, and Zhang Miao. Betrayed him, Liu Bei, Kong Rong didn't understand him, now, he wants to regain everything he lost for himself.

Li Gan, Li Dian, uncle and nephew led the army first, and then Cao Hong, Cao Ren, Le Jin, and Yu Jin gathered the army. Under the leadership of Cao Cao, the formation was well organized, and they retreated slowly, not like withdrawing troops, but advancing.

Kong Rong escaped, until Cao Cao completely retreated, when Liu Bei led the army to come, Kong Rong finally understood why he escaped.

He was holding Liu Bei's hand, and his heart was moved beyond measure. Liu Bei was extremely humble, saying that if Kong Rong hadn't borrowed troops, he wouldn't be where he is today.

The two flattered each other, and they chatted happily for a while. Kong Rong wanted to win over Liu Bei, a strong supporter, and Liu Bei wanted to use Kong Rong to improve his reputation.

As for Cao Cao, after he led the army back to Mount Tai, he couldn't help laughing.

People on the left and right asked why, now that they returned without success and even lost Yanzhou, how could they still laugh.

Cao Cao looked to the left and right and said:

"If I were him, Liu Bei, I should directly raise my army, enter Yanzhou, and take all the cities. It won't take long. As long as Cao Cao's army is defeated, Liu Bei can become Xuzhou, the lord of Yanzhou without a single soldier. If you do that, I will respect him like a god..."

Having said that, Cao Cao first inhaled and then exhaled, and then continued:

"Now that Guan Yu has captured Yanzhou, if Liu Bei sets up an ambush on Mount Tai and other places, he will fight with me and kill our army. I will give him a high regard..."

"Even if he doesn't set up an ambush, as long as he sends troops to chase after him, he can severely damage or even defeat our army. I regard him as a confidant..."

After finishing these two sentences, Cao Cao pointed around and smiled:

"Look at the present, Liu Bei neither lays an ambush nor chases after him. It can be seen that he is an incompetent person. He let me Cao Mengde escape from birth and take back Yanzhou. door, to thank him for not killing him!"

After listening to Cao Cao's words, the morale of the people on the left and right was no longer low, and everyone was full of fighting spirit, and they were no longer depressed.
