Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 148
Liu Dai doesn't understand what marching and fighting is at all, but he understands that there are many people on his side, as long as he catches up with Cao Cao, and then the whole army presses down, his side will definitely defeat Cao Cao. Seven layers of troops were brought out, nearly 6 people.

However, these 6 people are almost all infantry, and they lack training. There are [-] of Qiao Mao's troops, and they have no heart for Liu Dai at all. Many people are even thinking about how to escape, or are escaping. Let's see if we can avenge the old master Qiao Mao.

Liu Dai's men and horses were chasing after Cao Cao, but fortunately, they were not very fast. According to their speed, they still had the strength to fight after catching up with Cao Cao.As for why the 6 people didn't chase after them like crazy, it's because the commander-in-chief Liu Dai doesn't understand military affairs, and he can't stand the bumps, and he doesn't feel comfortable chasing too fast. Perhaps, this is also called foolishness. Be silly.

Liu Dai is too self-righteous, thinking that he is supercilious when he has a lot of people, and he got a lot of benefits from killing Qiao Mao some time ago, so now Liu Dai is full of ambition. As long as he defeats Cao Cao again, Liu Dai will probably regard himself as a war god Bar.

Twenty miles behind this army, 100 elite cavalry of the Youzhou Army followed closely, and more than [-] scouts had already scattered far away to stare at Liu Dai's army. Under such surveillance, Gongsun Xu would behave like this Slow down and chase after Liu Dai leisurely.

From the day he left the camp to now, Gongsun Zan still didn't understand why his son didn't go back to Bingzhou, but wanted to chase after the disgusting Liu Dai.If it was to impress Liu Dai, the Youzhou army could have given him a sneak attack and then walked away. There was no need to waste time like this.

Seeing his son still looking so relaxed, Gongsun Zan couldn't hold back anymore.

"Xu'er, I know you have a chivalrous heart. Qiao Mao is also considered a good man, at least a good official, so I understand that you can't understand Liu Dai and killed him like this. Actually, I also can't understand Liu Dai. This thing Dai, the role of Xia Sanlan, really thinks that he is a good bird."

Gongsun Zan said slowly: "I also have an idea to teach Liu Dai a lesson, at least to let him understand what is beyond the sky, but, Xuer, why don't we bring it to him on a plain, with the advantage of the speed of our cavalry, we can completely You can give him bloodletting here without any effort. Isn’t it too troublesome to follow like this.”

"Hahahaha, I don't know what father thinks." Gongsun Xu laughed and said, "Actually, except for father, the generals here probably think so, especially Yide, I'm afraid if I didn't stop him If he hadn't, he would have led his people up to work with Liu Dai long ago.

Father, to be honest, this Liu Dai is nothing but a relative of the emperor, what is he, is he worthy of such a big fight by my Youzhou army?Not bragging, even if he has an army of [-], I only need [-] personal guards to defeat him overnight. "

After Gongsun Zan heard this, his eyes were full of love, and he said with a smile: "Of course I understand, your personal guards are good at night battles, and you can defeat Liu Dai's army in just one night. Since you think so, Then why do you have to follow like this, if Yuan Shao sends troops to chase us, I'm afraid there will be troubles."

"Father, you and I both know that Liu Dai is not someone, so who do you think I continue to follow for?" Gongsun Xuzhun asked, "As for Yuan Shao, hahaha, I'm not boasting, nor am I looking down on you. Yuan Shao, he can't even make peace with the camp, and dares to send troops to chase us, if he really comes, we'll just leave."

Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei nodded when they heard this. To be honest, Yuan Shao's ability lies there. There is indeed a mess in Daying, and Yuan Shao really can't settle it.

Zhang Fei was very displeased with this cowardly way of following Liu Dai. After hearing Gongsun Xu finish speaking, he spoke first: "It's not because of Liu Dai, maybe it's because of Cao Cao. He is just a little defeated, isn't it? The lord is also interested."

Gongsun Zan and Zhao Yun's eyes lit up after hearing this, and Zhang Fei really awakened the dreamer with a single sentence.Even Zhang Fei himself was impressed.

He immediately asked excitedly: "The lord really came here for Cao Cao. Among the princes, there are not many who can make the lord look up to him. This Cao Cao should be one of them. We have spent so much trouble today, it must be for Cao Cao. However, the lord and Cao Cao have no enmity in the past and have no enmity in the present, so it should not be for revenge."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Fei looked at Gongsun Xu with a puzzled expression. He hoped that Gongsun Xu could give a satisfactory answer.

Gongsun Xu looked at the people around him, and then sighed: "Yide, you have grown a lot, you can turn your mind so fast. Yes, I am indeed here for Cao Cao on this trip, but I am here Those who watch the show are not here to seek revenge."

Everyone was even more puzzled. Ordinarily, Gongsun Xu's character is not so bad. He actually watched Liu Dai and Cao Cao kill each other.

Gongsun Xu ignored everyone's questions, and asked himself, "Father, what do you think of Cao Cao?"

Gongsun Zan looked at the sky and sighed, "Cao Cao is worthy of the title of hero in troubled times. He is very capable and courageous. I ask myself that I may not be his opponent. The key is that he has many qualities. I can't even understand it. Just kidding, I can't understand Cao Cao just like I sometimes treat you. Moreover, he is still young and has the support of the Cao family and the Xiahou family. Really not to be underestimated”

Gongsun Xu nodded and replied: "That's right, Cao Cao is definitely a character. At least, he has the qualifications to become a hero. However, Cao Cao's experience is still relatively small, so in this alliance against Dong Zhuo , his shining place will be covered by our Youzhou army, otherwise, Dong Zhuo's biggest opponent should be him."

"Then why did you follow this time?" Gongsun Zan asked.

"The eagles on the prairie can only soar into the sky after breaking their wings." Gongsun Xutan replied: "Cao Cao has already broken his wings in this alliance, but I believe that his wings are being restored." Growing up, I really want to know how far such a character will grow after experiencing these failures."

After hearing this, everyone understood the purpose of Gongsun Xu's trip.Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei's eyes were full of admiration, because no matter what Gongsun Xu did, he was prepared in advance, just like Cao Cao, who might become an enemy in the future, so Gongsun Xu started to pay attention to him now.

However, Gongsun Zan looked at Gongsun Xu anxiously and said, "Xu'er, you are very smart, especially after experiencing several lives and deaths in this alliance, you are better at using your brain than changing, but, Xu'er , you are too scheming, as a father, you can no longer guess what you are going to do. You are no longer someone I can see through. Sigh."

A sigh, mixed with a little regret and sadness, also seemed a little disappointed.Having such an excellent son, even Gongsun Zan himself didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing, but he knew that he could no longer influence his son's thoughts.

Seeing such a sad father, Gongsun Xu comforted him: "Father, don't worry, no matter how I change, I will always be your son and the commander-in-chief of the soldiers. This will not change no matter what happens. As long as you are here , I am definitely the young master of Youzhou, and I will never change, father can rest assured."

Of course, Gongsun Zan believed in his heart that the young man in front of him would not have any thoughts, because he believed that no matter how his son changed, he would always be his son, the child he watched grow up. The reason why Gongsun Zan said that , purely out of emotion.

Just as everyone continued to communicate, the scouts in front sent a letter back saying that Liu Dai's army was about to catch up with Cao Cao's follow-up troops, and Cao Cao left Xia Houyuan and his brothers with 2000 men to cut off the rear.Liu Dai's forward army has already fought against Xia Houyuan's army.

Everyone looked at Gongsun Xu. They were all waiting for Gongsun Xu's order on what to do now. Even Gongsun Zan was waiting for his own son's order.There is no way, this matter was brought up by Gongsun Xu, and he has to do what should be done.

Gongsun Xu looked at the crowd and said with a smile: "The two brothers Xiahouyuan and Xiahoudun are Cao Cao's right-hand men. They have outstanding abilities and superb martial arts. Especially Xiahouyuan, he is very clever in marching and fighting. It is wise for Cao Cao to leave them behind. However, 2000 people are too few, Cao Cao should not let his subordinates die so easily.

If I'm not wrong, Xia Houyuan and the others will retreat soon. It seems that Cao Cao is preparing to ambush Liu.There are only a few places where an ambush can be made within a radius of fifty miles, and the key depends on where Xia Houyuan retreats.

Father, what do you think? "

Gongsun Zan shook his head and replied: "When you make a decision, I usually don't give advice, and there is nothing wrong with your thinking. You can decide how to do it yourself. Anyway, I only know one thing, Cao Cao, It's not a bad thing at all, how could he let Liu Dai follow him without taking any action? Just give the order when you think about it."

Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei and others nodded in agreement after hearing this. Now, Gongsun Xu has become the supreme commander of the cavalry invisibly, and everyone is waiting for him to issue orders.

"I would like to see how strong Cao Cao's military capabilities are." Gongsun Xu said with a smile: "We are just sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight. We are sending two hundred cavalry to inquire about the news. We will continue to move forward and try to keep close to Liu Dai's army." A distance of more than ten miles."

Everyone continued to move forward. Gongsun Xu didn't care much about what was going on ahead. Once Fangzheng Cao Cao and Liu Dai fought, they would definitely fight for several hours.In any case, Cao Cao still has more than 1 people in his hands. Although Liu Dai has 6 people, it is difficult to win Cao Cao, but it is not so easy for Cao Cao to win.

A few tens of miles ahead, an army of about 2000 men was retreating, and there were about 5000 pursuers about three miles behind them, and there were tens of thousands of people about ten miles behind these [-] men.

Among the first 2000 people to flee, Xia Houyuan shouted: "Brothers, hold on, we will be safe soon"
