Chapter 228 Heroes see the same thing? (Thanks to Lonesomen
Early the next morning, Sergeant Yuan came to the city wall to sign in and clock in on time.
After nearly a month of attrition war, many sections of Cao Jun's moat have been filled in by Yuan Jun.
Now that the oars can drive directly under the city wall, the number of times Yuan Jun climbed onto the city wall has also increased significantly.
If this trend continues, Cao Jun may be captured by Yuan Jun within half a month.
It is not unfair to say that Gongsun Zan was defeated. Yuan Shao's army was indeed very powerful.
In particular, the armies commanded by Yuan Shao's Qu Yi, Zhang He and Gao Lan were not only powerful in the civil war, but also very powerful in the external war.
There is an interesting thing,
At that time, the Chanyu of the Southern Huns made trouble and captured Zhang Yang, the prefect of Hanoi, which made Qu Yi very unhappy.
So Qu Yi led the leading soldiers to catch up to Yenan at one go, and chased the arrogant Xiongnu Chanyu. He greeted him with a crossbow without a word of nonsense!
Before Shan Yu could understand what was going on, almost all the people around him were killed, and he had no choice but to release the hostages. Only then did Qu Yi give up. This was one of the reasons why most of Zhang Yang's men were willing to surrender to Yuan Shao.
It's just a pity that Qu Yi was arrogant because of his merit, ignored Yuan Shao's many orders, and was eventually killed by Yuan Shao...
When Zhang He arrived at Gaolan, they even joined forces with Yuan Shao's nephew Gao Gan to defeat the Wuhuan, Xianbei, Xiongnu, Qiang and other foreign tribes who often harassed the southern part of Bingzhou. They also recruited nearly 50,000 foreign cavalry, mainly Wuhuan people. They The combat power of his army can be imagined.
But the one who treats foreigners the most cruelly is none other than Boss Cao...
After Boss Cao unified the north, those aliens would be beaten if they offended Cao Cao, and they would be beaten if they did not offend Cao Cao. They would be beaten when they were in a good mood, and they would be beaten hard when they were in a bad mood...
In history, during the Battle of Liucheng from the tenth to the twelfth year of Jian'an, Cao Cao directly killed three Shanyus and successfully recruited 200,000 elite soldiers. He also gave the army a new name, Wuhuan of the Three Commanderies, Chengdu. The most famous cavalry in the world, second only to the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
After Boss Cao's son Cao Zhang took action, even his own people felt that their treatment of foreigners was a bit too cruel... There was no way, Cao Zhang was even more ruthless than Cao Cao!
Lu Yan was awakened by the sound of war drums and shouts of death. He rubbed his dizzy head and muttered to himself: "Ah... I thought too much last night and slept too late. I feel a little uncomfortable..."
"Lu Qiaoqi, the Prime Minister invites you to go to the Chinese army's tent to discuss matters!"
There were rumors outside Lu Yan's camp that messengers came to convey Cao Cao's news.
"Understood, I'll go right away..." Lu Yan reluctantly climbed out of bed, rubbed his temples for a while, then hastily washed his face with cold water and went to the Chinese army tent.
Entering the main tent, Lu Yan found that Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai, Xun Yu and others were all present, so he quickly sat down in his seat.
When Cao Cao saw Lu Yan coming, he smiled and nodded and said, "Everyone, I have called you here today because Cao has something he wants to discuss with you."
"My lord, please speak!"
"Mr. Cao, please speak...yawn!"
Lu Yan kept recalling and thinking about Xu You and Wu Chao last night, and didn't go to bed until almost early in the morning. He was indeed still awake at this time, and seemed a little listless.
Guo Jia glanced at the slightly tired Lu Yan, handed his water bag to Lu Yan, and said, "Drink some water to refresh yourself."
Lu Yan had no doubt that he had it. After saying thank you, he picked up the water bag and drank it in one gulp.
"Woo~!" Lu Yan took a big mouthful of "water" into his throat, and his face turned red immediately from holding it in!
After a while, the burning feeling in his throat and stomach disappeared. After Lu Yan took a deep breath, he glared at Guo Jia: "Sir, can you give me Erguotou to refresh me?"
Guo Jia snatched the wine bag back, shook the wine that Lu Yan had taken a big gulp of with some distress, curled his lips and replied: "I only have this little stock... I can't bear to take a sip on weekdays, why don't you still?"
Know a good person’s heart?”
Lu Yan chuckled dryly and said, "When you win this battle, I'll get you a tank when you get back!"
"Keep your word!"
"Of course, I, Mr. Lu, have always been an innocent child!"
...
Cao Cao hadn't spoken yet, but Lu Yan and Guo Jia were minding their own business and chatting first.
From the looks of them, they seemed to have never thought about losing the battle, which made Cao Cao more determined to defeat Yuan Shao.
After Guo Jia and Lu Yan finished talking, Cao Cao suddenly said: "Everyone, we are out of food."
Counselors: "???"
"No way, my lord, as far as I know, Chenliu County's granary has used less than one-third of the food. Why is there suddenly no food?" Cheng Yu suddenly became anxious and blurted out.
Cao Cao walked to Guo Jia and stretched out his hand to signal to Guo Jia.
Guo Jia reluctantly took off the wine bag from his waist and handed it to Cao Cao with great reluctance.
After Cao Cao got the wine bag, he said: "Drinking is not allowed in the army. Besides, you are not in good health, Fengxiao, so you should drink less wine... I will confiscate this wine first, and you can take it back to me after the beating."
"
"Haha..." Guo Jia didn't say anything, just laughed...Take it back? You can take the wine bag back, but the wine probably got into someone's stomach...
With the wine bag pinned to his waist, Boss Cao's already good mood seemed to become even more beautiful.
He looked at Cheng Yu and said, "Yes, we still have a lot of food in Chenliu County, but you know it, I know it, but Yuan Shao doesn't!"
Lu Yan was startled when he heard this. He looked up at Cao Cao in surprise and said, "Mr. Cao, do you mean to pretend that the food in the camp is exhausted and then induce Yuan Shao to send troops?" After speaking, Lu Yan suddenly said, "Yes,
Although we are not short of food now, we can pretend to be short of food!"
Last night, Lu Yan was still worried that there was too much food and he couldn't get Xu You to come up with a plan for a sneak attack. He had completely forgotten that he could pretend he was out of food!
"Mr. Lu is right!" Cao Cao laughed.
"What riddles are these two playing?" Others were confused.
Xun You said: "My lord, Yuan Shao has many wise men. It is not that easy to induce Yuan Shao to send troops!"
When Cao Cao heard this, he smiled and said: "It doesn't matter whether Yuan Shao sends troops or not. What matters is alienating the counselors who offered advice to Yuan Shao!"
Lu Yan's eyes widened suddenly, and he was shocked and said: "Damn it! How did Boss Cao come up with this idea? Could it be that he and Xun Yu deliberately set a trap for Xu You in history?"
Cao Cao peeked at Lu Yan's reaction from the corner of his eye and saw that his face was full of disbelief, so he deliberately asked: "Looking at Mr. Lu's reaction, you must have guessed Cao's intention, right?"
Everyone looked at Lu Yan and thought, "What the hell! What happened to Lao Cao and Lu Yan today? Why is there a faint smell of py?"
Lu Yan tentatively replied: "Could it be that Duke Cao wanted to reveal the news of the food shortage to Yuan Shao's counselors? If the counselor persuades Yuan Shao to send troops, we can set an ambush for him; if he cannot persuade him, we can make the two of them
Centrifugal?”
Cao Cao laughed loudly and said: "Sure enough, heroes think alike!"
Xun Yu and others seemed to understand the plan of Cao Cao and Lu Yan, and asked: "My lord, Changsheng, who do you two intend to use this plan on?"
Lu Yan was about to answer, but Cao Cao suddenly stopped him and said, "Wait a minute! Mr. Lu, you and I write the name of the person on our palms to see if you and I are thinking of the same person!"
"Naughty..." Lu Yan muttered in his heart, but still followed Cao Cao's request and wrote the man's name on his palm.
When Cao Cao finished writing, they stretched out their fists and opened them at the same time.
Both of them have the same person's name written on their palms.
