The Assassin Empire of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 216 The Battle of Guandu

Yuan Shao's [-]-strong army swallowed up the mountains and rivers and covered the sky and the sun.After slaughtering pigs and cattle, two prisoners were taken from the prison to sacrifice to the flag of the war.Yuan Shao's golden helmet and armor, with a sword hanging from his waist, are a bit dazzling even when he stands in front of others.He rode through the field on a tall white horse, and the soldiers kept shouting mighty.If a timid person takes a look at this situation, he will be shattered and die.

Going around the arena, accepting the cheers of the crowd, he brought the horse back and came to the front of the stage.Wearing the heavy armor made people a little stiff, and with the help of several personal guards, he climbed off the horse.Yuan Shao waved his hand, and there was no sound in the teaching army field.Yuan Shao nodded slightly, he was very satisfied, only when a man reached this position would he feel the insignificance of the world.

"Soldiers!" Yuan Shao's voice was loud and powerful, and even the one in the corner of Nuo University's military field could clearly hear it. This voice was cultivated by Yuan Shao over the years.

"The emperor of the Ming Dynasty made a plan to calm the chaos in the face of a crisis, and his loyal ministers sought strategies to establish a position in the face of disaster. Therefore, there are extraordinary people first, and then there are extraordinary things; there are extraordinary things, and extraordinary meritorious deeds can be made. During the time of Empress Lu, Lu Lu, Lu Chan monopolized power, so Jiang Hou Zhou Bo and Zhu Xu Hou Liu Zhang raised their troops in anger to punish the rebellion, and honored the Liu Emperor, which will shine in the annals of history. They are models of ministers' meritorious deeds. Today, Cao Cao and Long Fei have no virtue and are cunning and knight-errant , creating turmoil,..."

What Yuan Shao said was spitting, but everyone sneered in their hearts.Ju Shou frowned, and asked the officials next to him, "Who wrote this article?"

"Cao Yu and Chen Lin!" Someone answered quickly.

Chen Lin shook her head and smiled wryly. In this article, Long Fei and Cao Cao were scolded like bloody dogs. They said that Long Fei was a bastard outside the Great Wall, and that after Cao Cao was an eunuch, he, Yuan Shao, was the only prince in the world, and he was always a big man.It is obvious that the people of the world are being played like monkeys. Who doesn't know that the root of the world's turmoil is these princes. If you hit me today, I will hit you tomorrow, and in the end, dog bite dog.Guo Tu and the trial pair looked at each other, nodded slightly, stroked their beards and shook their heads, listening with gusto, when Yuan Shao said hello, the two almost applauded and congratulated each other.

In addition to these literati, it is those generals and soldiers.Among the generals, some literate people more or less heard some tricks.Those who don't know a single word, for a drinker like Chun Yuqiong, it's better to have a drink with him.The soldiers listened quietly, although they could not understand, they still had to listen.In such a hot weather, my protagonist stood there and made a long speech, do you think he is hot or not?Anyway, I am very hot, I hope to disband quickly and find a cool place to rest.

"Long Fei sent troops to surround the palace, and Cao Cao promised him with his daughter. It is a traitor! Now is the time for our loyal ministers to be overwhelmed, and it is time for all the soldiers to make contributions to the country. Today, I, Yuan Shao, set up a battle between the four states of You, Bing, Qing, and Ji. Soldiers, help the country! Whoever wins the heads of Cao Cao and Long Fei will be granted 5000 households and rewarded with [-] million yuan!"

"Okay...!" Everyone in the audience cheered, but they didn't hear anything else. The last sentence was very real, five thousand households, fifty million yuan.Ten lives?You can't finish it in a hundred lifetimes!Just because of this sentence, the entire teaching ground has pushed its aura to the climax.Yuan Shao looked at the enthusiastic soldiers and felt happy. This Chen Lin was not good at anything else, and her means of motivating people were quite good.

The trumpets sounded three times, and the army set out. One hundred thousand troops came out of Yecheng and went straight to Baima.It is said to be one hundred thousand, but in fact it is not one hundred thousand.After Yuan Shao unified the four prefectures in Hebei, he collected Gongsun Zan and Zhang Yan's remnants and defeated generals. He managed to gather [-] soldiers and horses, and Yan Liang killed [-] soldiers in the first battle. Now there are only [-] soldiers and horses, which is comparable to Cao Long's coalition forces. .

The army was stationed at Liyang, and Yuan Shao raised his tent.After the drums have been beaten, the civil servants and military generals have assembled.Glancing at the crowd, Yuan Shao said: "Tomorrow we will be able to reach the bank of the Yellow River. Whether we can cross the river smoothly or not is related to the victory or defeat of this battle. I would like to cross the river from the White Horse to be ashamed. What do you think?"

Wen Chou immediately said: "I am willing to enter Wancheng as a vanguard, and capture Long Fei alive to avenge my eldest brother!"

"My lord!" Ju Shou said hastily, "I have no objection to crossing the river from the white horse. What happens after crossing the river? Do you still want to go to Wancheng?"

"What do you mean by the public?"

Ju Shou said: "General Yan Liang was defeated by Long Fei only because he underestimated the enemy. If our army approached Baima, Cao and Long's armies would definitely not dare to fight. In my estimation, they must have fled. Therefore, there is no problem in crossing the river from Baima, just crossing the river." After the river, if you go to Wancheng, you will be blocked, so it is better to send troops to the east and attack Cao Cao's Dongjun to threaten Xuzhou, which will not only break the siege of Qingzhou, but also make Cao Long's allied forces exhausted."

"Nonsense!" Guo Tu sternly organized: "Yesterday, in the teaching army field, the lord just said that he wanted to save His Majesty and restore the great man, but now you let the lord go east, so what will people in the world say about the lord? The lord has the same relationship with the other princes." What's the difference? My lord!" Guo Tu cupped his hands to Yuan Shao and said, "Although our army is damaged, the main force is still there, and Cao Long's coalition army is not waiting for work. Long Fei only has [-] troops, and Cao Cao's army has just returned from conquering Yuzhou. Attack with all your strength, this gang of mobs will never be a problem!"

The judge also said: "Yes! Wancheng is the center of the world, and it is feasible to take Wancheng, southeast, north, south, and north. What's more, His Majesty is still in the middle, and the lord who rescued His Majesty climbed up and shouted, and everyone gathered, let alone Cao Cao, Liu Biao, and Sun Quan. What about the disciples?"

Feng Ji and Xin Ping all agreed.Jushou was isolated and helpless, and couldn't speak at all. "Cough!" Xu You, who hadn't spoken all this time, coughed lightly and glanced at everyone.Although Xu You was not the number one counselor under Yuan Shao, he had played with Yuan Shao since he was a child, and he and Yuan Shao not only had a master-servant relationship, but also a brotherhood.On Yuan Shao's side, only Xu You dared to address Yuan Shao's words: "Ben Chu! Since neither side can convince anyone, I have a suggestion! Why don't the troops divide into two groups, one way to the east and the other to the west, so that both If you can hold back Cao Cao, you can also harass Xuzhou."

"No!" Ju Shou hurriedly said: "Master Xu is ridiculous! Now our army is roughly equal in strength to Cao Long's two armies. If we divide our troops, wouldn't they just be defeated by others?"

There was another quarrel, and it was like a pot was boiling in the big tent. You said something to me.The crowd quarreled fiercely, Yuan Shao got up silently and walked around to the back tent.Listening to the commotion in front, Yuan Shao took out six copper coins from his pocket, put them in his palms, kowtowed devoutly to Dongfang, and then loosened his hands, and the copper coins fell to the ground.Yuan Shao hurriedly looked at it, very carefully, while watching, his eyes widened, and he muttered: "Six-two: straight, square, big; if you don't practice, there will be no disadvantages." [Note]

Yuan Shao laughed loudly: "Okay, okay. Okay!" After saying three good words in a row, he packed up, got up and went back to the outer tent.

Everyone was still arguing about how to dispatch troops, Yuan Shao coughed lightly and sat down slowly.Everyone saw Yuan Shao's happy face, but they didn't know why.Yuan Shao said: "Everyone, don't be nervous. We will win this battle. It won't be too late to make a decision after entering the white horse. Whether to advance or retreat will be determined!"

When the lord spoke, everyone dared not argue.Yuan Shao ordered the ships to be prepared to cross the river. Three days later, the ships were ready. Just in case, Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang led five thousand troops to cross the river to test.There was no sound on the other side of the Yellow River, Yuan Shao laughed loudly and said, "You cowards, retreat immediately when you see me waiting, you are really vulnerable!"

The time it takes for tens of thousands of troops to cross the river is not a short while.Long Fei who stayed in Baima City kept sending people to investigate the situation, and Yuan Shao's every move was under Long Fei's surveillance.Xia Houyuan asked: "Why didn't the general attack halfway across the river and give Yuan Jun a blow to the head, maybe they won't be able to cross the river!"

Long Fei glanced at Xia Houyuan: "Our task is to lure the enemy, if Yuan Shao is scared, what if we don't cross the river here?"

This time Long Fei only led 5000 soldiers and horses.Cao Cao sent Xia Houyuan and Liu Yan to lead [-] troops, with Long Fei as the commander. One was to see how Long Fei could lure the enemy, and the other was to retreat to Jiyin to prevent Yuan Shao from going straight to Dongjun when he failed to lure the enemy. . Among the [-] people, infantry archers are the main ones. Long Fei and Cao Cao thought of it together. Whether it is to lure the enemy or defend the city, archers are undoubtedly the best choice.

Long Fei divided the [-] archers into two groups, letting Xia Houyuan and Liu Yan lead [-] to guard the city wall, and his own [-] archers as a reserve team.Xia Houyuan was totally unwilling, Liu Yan hurriedly persuaded: "General Xiahou, don't be angry, let's see how Long Fei responds, everything is for the victory of this battle, the general will bear it for now!" Xia Houyuan exhaled heavily.

Yuan Shao's army crossed the Yellow River. As soon as Yuan Shao stood still, Guo Tu arrived: "My lord, the army is attacking by surprise. We have just crossed the river. Cao's army must think that we are going to rest for a day. If we send troops to surprise the white horse at this time, Cao's army will be unprepared. It will definitely win!"

Ju Shou said: "Master Guo is so confident? You underestimated Cao Cao and Long Fei too much. These two are vicious and cunning people. In my opinion, the small wall of Baima City is broken. Maybe they have given up here and stationed elsewhere. Why bother mobilizing the crowd!"

Yuan Shao hurriedly interrupted the two of them and said, "Whether you are here or not, it is always necessary to send troops. Come and find General Wen Chou!"

When Wen Chou arrived, Yuan Shao ordered Wen Chou to lead [-] cavalry to quickly raid the white horse, and he led the army to arrive shortly thereafter.Wen Chou was very excited when he heard it, and immediately got up, took the command arrow, and ran away.The eldest brother Yan Liang died in Baima, and his bones are still in a random graveyard outside the city. Although he was buried by soldiers, this is too shameful.Wen Chou has always wanted to take revenge on Long Fei and Liu Yan, and today he finally has the chance.

The Yellow River is not far from Baima City, and it can be reached in the blink of an eye.Long Fei had already received the news, instead of being in a hurry, he calmly picked up the tea bowl and chatted with Guo Jia while drinking tea.Xia Houyuan said coldly: "General Long, Wen Chou's [-] cavalry are coming soon, shouldn't you also go to the city to have a look?"

Long Fei shook his head: "What is there to see with the dead bones in the tomb!"

Note: Hexagram image.Sixty-two: Straight, square, big; no practice, no disadvantages. "Xiang" said: The movement of Liu Er is straight to the square.No learning, no disadvantages, authentic light also. "Xiang Ci" says: The line image of Liu Er is straight and square, even if you go to a strange place, there is no disadvantage, because the tunnel is vast and boundless.
