Chapter 454 The nickname is Liu Adou, no, this is Cao Adou!
The Battle of Guandu was the first of the three major battles of the Three Kingdoms. After this battle, there was no force in the north that could compete with Cao Cao.
Can.
Cao Cao still faces a huge problem!
As the saying goes, it is difficult for a rich man to be a man without money.
In ancient times, it was easy to be a killing god, but it was even more difficult not to be a cruel monarch, and the most important thing was food.
There is no food, hundreds of thousands of people have surrendered, and hundreds of thousands of people have opened their mouths. Is there any other option other than "going to the pit"?
Everyone knows how to kill them or not, but if they don't kill them, they won't be able to raise them... We can't wait for them to mutiny!
call…
Lu Yu exhaled.
At this moment, Dian Wei walked in.
"Master Lu, the war is over. All the remnants of Yuan's army have either been killed or surrendered. Today's battlefield has entered the final stage."
Hearing this, Lu Yu nodded.
Although the great victory in the Battle of Guandu contained some coincidences, Lu Yu was not surprised at all. Yuan Shao had two weaknesses that were fatal!
One of them is stubborn!
At first he didn't listen to Tian Feng's advice, and then he didn't listen to Ju Shou's plan.
To take a step back, if he had listened to Tian Feng's advice, kept a low profile and waited for the opportunity.
Then the Battle of Guandu will not start so soon!
If you had listened to Ju Shou's words, then at least Yan Liang and Wen Chou would not have been defeated so quickly, nor would they have been defeated in the first battle and lost the opportunity!
You must know that Yan Liang and Wen Chou are more powerful than Zhang He and Gao Lan. The most important thing is loyalty, which gives Yuan Shao unconditional trust.
The second is that Yuan Shao cannot manage his subordinates. It is no exaggeration to say that all of Yuan Shao's subordinates are talented people, including Guo Tu, Feng Ji, Tian Feng, Shen Pei, Xu You, Guo Tu, Ju Suo...
But Fengji and Tian Feng have a bad relationship;
The relationship between Shen Pei and Xu You is bad;
Not to mention Jushou, Tian Feng and the group of Jizhou celebrities are in the same situation as the Ruyingmen clan headed by Guo Tu...
Each of these people are talented individually, but when placed in Yuan Shao's camp, everyone is for himself.
On the surface, they all serve Yuan Shao, but in reality, almost all of them are Cao Cao's undercover agents. They didn't do much for Yuan Shao, but they contributed many good opportunities to Cao Cao!
There are too many cliques in a Yuan camp, like six people in a girls' dormitory forming seven groups. On the surface, they have a deep sisterly love, but secretly they are infighting. Can the relationship be good?
on the contrary…
Every weakness of Yuan Shao is a strength of Cao Cao, and every strength of Cao Cao can kill Yuan Shao.
With or without Lu Yu, the outcome is doomed.
only…
Lu Yu's appearance avoided many unnecessary pitfalls and saved more manpower and ordnance supplies!
"Perhaps this is Shi Ye's destiny!"
With a final sigh, Lu Yu stood up...
In any case, this war has entered its final stage, but at the same time, new problems have quietly arisen.
"Let's go...go have a look at the battlefield!"
After saying hello, Lu Yu, escorted by Dian Wei and Long Xiaoqi, headed for Yuan Jun's dilapidated stronghold.
Along the way, mourners were everywhere and blood flowed like rivers.
What a Shura field under the bloody setting sun!
…
Liu Bei defected to Yuan Shao in the past, and it seems that he also taught him his "escape" skills.
Throughout the Yuan camp, not only Yuan Shao and his three sons were running fast, but also... all the military advisors were running with wind in their steps. Maybe... they had been prepared for a long time.
Thinking about it this way, Jushu is the only one who is relatively simple...
His running speed is far inferior to that of others, not even Guo Tu.
Almost at the same time…
Lu Yu and Cao Cao, who were on both sides of the battlefield, both noticed him.
Of course, there was a reason to notice him. Among the many captives, he was undoubtedly the most handsome one.
"I was captured, I did not surrender..."
Jushuo yelled heart-breakingly, yelling at the top of his lungs.
This earth-shattering shout made Cao Cao and Lu Yu both walk towards him.
When Lu Yu saw Cao Cao, he raised his hands and saluted, while Cao Cao indicated that no more courtesy was needed...
Xu Chu, on the other hand, scratched his head.
"Is this guy stupid? He's already been captured? He's still shouting, 'I'm captured, I didn't surrender.' Is there any point in that?"
Xu Chu's words almost revealed the questions in the minds of all the soldiers.
Someone recognized him as Jushou, an important military advisor to Yuan Shao, but... why did Yuan Shao's military advisor look a little stupid? Did he get kicked in the head by a donkey?
The words came out of my mouth...
Cao Cao grinned slightly and asked Lu Yu casually.
"What do Lu Situ think?"
"Let him shout." Lu Yu smiled lightly. "It's not like he shouted it to us. These words reached the ears of the defeated Yuan Jun soldiers, and passed them to Yuan Shao through their mouths. In this way... Jushou was in Jizhou
My family will be safe! Jushou is truly a smart man!"
Hey…
After Lu Yu analyzed this, Xu Chu and the other soldiers suddenly realized, and they all muttered that there was something in Ju Chu's stomach.
Just then.
"Hahaha..." Cao Cao laughed out loud and walked up to Ju Shou.
Speaking of which, Jushou was also a student of the Imperial Academy, in the same class as Yuan Shao, and in the same class as Cao Cao...
There are still many societies in Taixue. Cao Cao and Ju Shou naturally knew each other and could be considered friends and old friends. Naturally, they knew that Ju Shou had real talents and learning.
Even... from the bottom of his heart, Cao Cao admired him and wanted to take him under his command.
"Stop shouting, everyone has run away."
Cao Cao personally went to help Ju Shou up and loosen his bonds... "Brother Ju, we have been in different camps these years and we haven't contacted you for a long time? I never thought that when I saw you here today, you would be captured by me."
Jushu is so smart...
There are two meanings in this sentence. Cao Cao had something in his words. Firstly, he wanted to persuade him to surrender, and secondly, it was to give him a blow.
However, Jushou was such a strong man, he raised his head and looked at Cao Cao coldly.
"Yuan Benchu didn't listen to my plan, but you, Cao Cao, were able to obey Yin Linyan. It was for this reason that I suffered a disastrous defeat today. I can't use my talents. I deserve to end up like this and be captured by you!"
"Haha..." Cao Cao pulled Jushu up and patted the dust on his body. "Yuan Benchu had no brains and didn't know how to reuse talents, so he suffered this defeat. But I, Cao Cao, am different from him. If there are talents, I will use them as soon as possible."
, I must obey my advice, brother Ju, why don’t you join me in Cao Ying, become an official in the same court as Yin Lin, and conspire with me, Cao Cao, to conquer the world!”
Cao Cao loved talents and cherished them.
These words have given Jushou a lot of face.
However, when Lu Yu heard this, he shook his head.
He thought that Lao Cao was a little naive.
After the great victory, many potential crises were covered up by the superficial flowers, and Lao Cao still did not realize the seriousness of the matter.
It is true that food and grass are a top priority.
But there is another thing that is more important than food and grass, and it will soon happen and break out in Cao's camp!
What's more... if you're not careful, you may cause a mutiny!
Military spirit!
That’s right…
Zhang He and Gao Lan brought forty soldiers down, and while food and grass were scarce, the morale of the army was also a huge unstable factor.
You know, although their heads are hot and they follow the general to surrender, their parents, wives and children are still in Jizhou and still in the north... Maybe they won't think of this in a short time, but as time goes by... they are homesick. Emotions will spread!
Why was the "embarrassment on all sides" during the period of conflict between Chu and Han so effective?
…It stems from this feeling of homesickness.
If this emotion is not resolved well, it will cause mutiny among the officers and soldiers of the three armies.
really…
It was not beyond Lu Yu's expectation.
Facing the olive branch thrown by Cao Cao, Ju Shou waved his hands repeatedly. "Cao Sikong atoned for his sins. My uncle and younger brother are still in Jizhou and are still in the hands of Yuan Shao. If I do it with you? Then... I'm afraid Yuan Shao will kill them all. Thanks to Cao Sikong, he only wants to kill me, so this is my blessing!"
this…
Cao Cao sighed, feeling it was a pity...
"If I had met you earlier, why would I, Cao Cao, worry about the uncertainty of the world?"
Immediately, Cao Cao turned around and prepared to leave.
But at this moment, a voice came. "Mr. Ju, there is no need to worry about his family? I have arranged for people to rescue Mr. Ju's family..."
"This..." Jushou was startled, and his eyes turned to this handsome young man in his early twenties. "You are... Yinlin, right?"
Jushou subconsciously chanted this sentence.
"Lu Yu has met Mr. Ju..." Lu Yu slightly cupped his hands as a salute.
Jushuo's eyes narrowed slightly. "Is what you just said true?"
"It's absolutely true!" Lu Yu nodded. "Don't you know, Mr. Ju? I have deployed a chess piece in Jizhou."
The chess piece proposed by Lu Yu was actually Sima Yi.
But Cao Cao didn't understand it that way.
"Ha ha…"
He laughed out loud. "Brother Ju, I'm afraid you don't know yet. Guo Tu and Guo Gongze are the chess pieces placed by Lu Situ in Yuan Camp."
Ah...Guo...Guo Tu?
Ah...ah...
Jushou was shocked when he blurted out these words.
In an instant, General Manager Guo Tu's behavior suddenly came to mind, and General Manager's doubts were suddenly solved. It turned out that... it turned out that he was... a craftsman?
Shocked, Jushu felt...if these words were to spread, he and his friends would be shocked!
Outrageous, this is outrageous!
But...it seems that this is reasonable!
Guo Tu... Guo Gongze, he is not stupid at all, he is not stupid, he... he is smart!
"Ahem..."
Lu Yu coughed slightly at the right time and went off track... He found that his rhythm was completely led away by Lao Cao...
If he was fooled, he couldn't afford to explain too much. After all, using "Guo Tu" to cover "Sima Yi" was something he liked to hear.
Even if it reaches Yuan Shao's ears, I'm not afraid...
"Don't worry, Mr. Ju. Not only Mr. Ju's family, but also Xu Ziyuan's family, and even the Tian Feng clan, I will try every means to rescue! However, I hope Mr. Ju will cooperate..."
Huh... Jushou exhaled slightly. "How to cooperate?"
"First of all, we have to spread the word that Mr. Ju was killed by Cao Sikong at the gate, so that... we can make Yuan Shao in the north relax his guard against the Ju family... Secondly..."
Lu Yu called Ju Shou to his side and quietly explained his plan.
And it was precisely such an arrangement that made Jushu feel at ease. It turned out that...Yinlin had carefully considered every step of this.
"As expected of Yinlin, worthy of being... the Yinlin who can bring peace to the world!"
As soon as he said the praise, Jushou turned to ask Cao Cao: "Since my family is fine, what can I say... Jushou should say it..."
"Brother Ju, it's okay to say so!" Cao Cao gestured with his hand.
Jushu's eyes were condensed...
"Although the decisive battle between Cao and Yuan has come to an end, Cao Sikong needs to solve two problems as soon as possible. One is food and grass... the food and grass for 400,000 Yuan Ying soldiers, and the second is the morale of the army. Every Yuan Ying soldier's family and children are in the northern border.
, how to appease their mood is more critical than food and grass!"
"Otherwise...Cao Sikong will definitely follow in the footsteps of Bai Qi, the God of Killing, and kill these 400,000 surrendered soldiers, earning him the reputation of the 'God of Killing'. Otherwise, the three armies will mutiny, and Duke Cao will win in Guandu, but in the end it will be worse than losing.
"
hiss…
When he blurted out these words, Cao Cao took a deep breath!
Lu Yu was also shocked...
He is indeed the wisest man in the North, and this is exactly what he thought of.
…
…
On the outskirts of Runan City, Liu Bei was very happy in his village.
Mrs. Gan, who was escorted back by her second brother Guan Yu, had a swollen belly...
She is now five or six months pregnant!
Speaking of which…
After Mrs. Gan came back, Liu Bei cherished her very much.
Especially, after learning that Mrs. Gan was pregnant.
This also made Liu Bei, who had been wandering for most of his life, feel the warmth of home for the first time.
"He...is moving in the stomach again!"
Mrs. Gan held her stomach... and hummed softly. She could most intuitively feel the child's naughty and restless nature... He was really just like his "biological father"...
"Sister-in-law, I, Zhang Fei, think that if this child is so young and so active, he will be very good when he grows up... he must be a good material for practicing martial arts. From now on, let him learn from me, Zhang Fei, and keep the skills that he has taught him to become an enemy of thousands of people.
!”
Rare…
Zhang Fei even used idioms, which shows... the whole Liu Bei side is quite happy!
Speaking of which…
Historically, Cao Cao released Guan Yu and Liu Bei's wives at different times. Guan Yu was released in the fifth year of Jian'an, while the two sisters-in-law were released in the eleventh year of Jian'an...
However, this time, because of Lu Yu's deployment, because of Lao Cao's poor manipulation of the ghost possession, and because of Mrs. Gan's efforts to seduce Liu Bei...
It's a seamless connection...
Liu Bei didn't notice any difference or weirdness!
"Brother, this is what Liu Pi and Pei Yuanshao gave to my eldest brother on behalf of the more than 30,000 soldiers in the village..."
Guan Yu stroked his beard, pointed to the box behind him and introduced: "This is called Jade Ruyi, this is called green tea, and...this is a helmet that Liu Pi captured from Runan called the 'Emerald Golden Crown', which is worth a lot of money!"
Following Guan Yu's gaze, Liu Bei, Zhang Fei, and Mrs. Gan all looked at the treasures behind them...
Zhang Fei scratched his head and said with great interest: "Why are these treasures so green!"
ancient times…
Green is just a color without so many additional properties.
Just like ten years ago, doing hair was just doing hair, and multi-player sports were just one of the sports... These fashionable terms are all given a new and extraordinary meaning because of someone or something.
significance.
"It's green..." Liu Bei took the green "Emerald Golden Crown" and put it on his head, then faced Mrs. Gan. "Madam, how about I wear this crown?"
"I didn't expect that my husband and this color of hat would be a perfect match!"
Mrs. Gan smiled...
Zhang Fei shouted: "No wonder, the second brother always wears a cuckold. Hehe, now that the eldest brother wears it like this, I finally understand. A cuckold looks better! Ah... Hahaha... Tomorrow, I will also follow the example of the eldest brother,
Second brother, I want to be a cuckold too!"
"Ha ha ha ha…"
These words made Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Mrs. Gan laugh.
only…
No one knew that Mrs. Gan's laughter contained loneliness and a woman's persistence.
A moment passed...
"Husband... I dreamed of a white dove last night!" Mrs. Gan said. "It flew to the roof of the county government office, chirped loudly for more than forty times, and flew away to the west."
"Some time ago, I would dream that I swallowed the 'Big Dipper' into my belly, and then I became pregnant with this child. Big Dipper... Big Dipper, sometimes I was thinking, maybe our baby's nickname will be Adou.
alright."
The Big Dipper was the emperor star in ancient times and the symbol of the emperor...
Beidou is located in the north, overlooking the starry sky, just like an emperor overlooking his country, so some emperors often regard themselves as Beidou...
This is not the first time Mrs. Gan has told this dream.
Previously...when she found out she was pregnant, she told Cao Cao.
Cao Cao immediately named the child in his belly "Adou".
Of course... the Big Dipper cannot be used as a person's name, otherwise it would be a serious sin, but... Mrs. Gan dreamed of the Big Dipper, so that's a different matter.
But after all... it's a bit foreign to use Adou as a name, so Cao Cao regarded "Adou" as his nickname, which can be used by both boys and girls!
Originally...this was a little secret between Cao Cao and Mrs. Gan.
But...this time, Mrs. Gan took the initiative to chant, as if she wanted to prove the name of "Cao Adou".
"Sister-in-law is a good name..." Guan Yu stroked his beard. "Dou, Big Dipper, sister-in-law hopes that Adou can restore the Han Dynasty, ensure that the Han Dynasty will last forever like the Big Dipper Star, and be a wise and effective ruler!"
Hey…
Having said that, Liu Bei also thinks that the name "Adou" is quite good... quite good!
Nod immediately.
"It's just a nickname, let's call him Adou..."
Zhang Fei scratched his head. "This is a good name. I feel good when I read it!"
As soon as this statement came out...
"Ha ha ha ha…"
Immediately Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei... and Mrs. Gan all laughed out loud.
This time, Mrs. Gan smiled knowingly, and finally... as she wished, the child in her belly was named "Adou", which fulfilled her sincere longing for the "hot man".
Just then...
"Report..."
A pawn broke into this place.
Zhang Fei had a bad temper and picked up the pawn immediately.
"Didn't you see my sister-in-law here? She was in a panic and yelling. What should I do if I startle my nephew?"
The pawn shivered all over...
Liu Bei waved his hand.
"I have something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it..."
The soldier was granted amnesty, "Yesterday's solar eclipse, Cao's army and Yuan's army fought together. I heard that the killing was in darkness... This must be a decisive battle between Cao and Yuan, but... I don't know the outcome!"
Hmm…
Upon hearing this, Liu Bei's eyes narrowed.
"And..." I never thought that the pawn continued. "There is a letter from Liu Jingzhou. He... He promised the lord and allowed the lord to welcome His Majesty to Jingzhou..."
this…
Liu Bei's expression was stern. If...if it was just the first decisive battle between Cao and Yuan, he might not act rashly.
But... plus Liu Biao, then...
In this situation, he can no longer remain indifferent!
At least...he must have some sense of presence!
In front of the emperor, and in front of all the people in the world...
"Third brother, you will be the vanguard and I will give you three thousand cavalry to attack Xudu in a surprise attack!"
"Second brother, you and I, we will sit in the middle of the army and attack Xudu with 30,000 soldiers and horses... This battle is not about Xudu, but we must welcome the emperor!"
yes…
Whether Cao Cao wins or Yuan Shao wins...
In today's world, if you want to check and balance each other, you must bring the emperor to the territory of other princes... Only in this way can the power of various princes be balanced, and only then will Liu Bei have the opportunity to grow bigger through repeated leaps!
"Madam, I will arrange a convoy to take you to Jingzhou first. Regardless of victory or defeat in this battle, Runan cannot stay..."
"I feel wronged madam!"
After saying this, Liu Bei suddenly stood up and walked out of the room.
He didn't even raise his eyes to look at Mrs. Gan or the baby in her belly...
There are only two words in the whole person: "Ruthless..."
I have to say that in terms of capturing the hearts of women, Liu Bei and Cao Cao are very different in terms of their rankings!
