Chapter 321: The Stimulant Shots Brought by Xia Houen
Just when the generals in Cao's army were at a loss, Guo Jia's eyes flashed with light and he spoke in a deep voice.
"There are people around my lord who are not incapable of defeating Lu Bu, but they are not here for the time being!"
"Zhongkang, Dianwei, Changshan Zhao Zilong and the Bazhou Jinfan thief next to Datong are all brave enough. As long as the troops from Dongjun arrive, Bingzhou's slight advantage will be gone in an instant!"
"Yuan Shu's 100,000 elite soldiers on the Huaihe River can't withstand the thunder of Datong. Why is this guy afraid of Lu Bu?"
When Guo Jia spoke of Fang Guang, the doting tone in his tone could not be concealed.
Cao Cao, who had a sad face, finally softened a little when he thought of the great Han Sinong.
What Xun Yu didn't like to see the most was Boss Cao's body language when he talked about Fang Guang. His nephew Xun You lost miserably in the gambling battle with Shi Tao in Xuchang.
Shangshu Ling has seen that the young man in yellow turban who always suppressed him has become the ballast of his lord's lineage.
"Datong's attack on Shouchun, I don't know when it will be successful. Yuan Gonglu, the Fourth and Third Duke, didn't do it in vain!"
"I heard that this boy Sun Quan from Jiangdong doesn't have much friendship with Si Nong compared to his brother. Without the help of Jiangdong's powerful horses, Datong may not be able to win Shouchun smoothly!"
"Lord, I heard that Datong has accepted Yuan Shu's general Qiao Rui. This person is the mainstay of the rebellion. Is it possible to get Yuan Shu's general?"
Xun Yu kept Qiao Rui's affairs on the table without showing off the mountains and water. Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor and was a public enemy of the Han Dynasty. According to the law, even if Qiao Rui surrendered, he should first stay in Xuchang's residence for a few days.
Fang Guang didn't talk about procedures, and it was just as Pang Tong thought, and his flaws were already exposed.
After hearing this, Cao Cao felt something in his heart. Meng De naturally didn't care about the bridge or anything like that. What he cared about was why Fang Guang was so arbitrary on this matter.
I heard that Qiao Rui has now become the vanguard of the army. Young man, why do you trust Yuan Gongli's confidant so much?
"Don't mention this matter again. Datong has its own excuse. I think it's better to send more messengers to ask Shouchun about the situation. Let's talk about the rest. If our army cannot conquer both routes for a long time, then..."
Before Cao Cao could say his worried words, suddenly outside the tent, Cao Ang, who was in charge of guarding the subordinates today, rushed into the tent with a face full of joy.
Cao Ang is now serving as General Zhonglang of the Guard Army. It is Cao Cao who wants to train his son in military strategy.
Meng De always managed the army strictly, and even if his son entered here without permission, it made him very unhappy.
"Why is it that Ang'er is so panic-stricken? How can a general in the army not be frightened when he hears that Mount Tai is collapsing in front of him?"
Cao Cao, who taught his son in person, was about to teach his eldest son a lesson, but was interrupted by Cao Ang's excited announcement.
"Father, this is Xia Houen. Xia Houen has returned from Shouchun!"
"I just met you at the gate. Datong has already captured Shouchun. Yuan Shu has died. The county of Huainan has been recovered by Datong. General Xiahou has also brought the jade seal. Good guy, nearly 800 miles of land has been conquered in less than five days.
Arrived!"
"What, Shouchun has been breached?"
"Have you got the imperial seal? Okay, okay! Datong, okay, could it be that Sun Zhongmou has the whole army to help? Hurry, hurry, let Xiahou En come to me quickly!"
With so much good news, Boss Cao instantly forgot to continue educating Cao Ang, civil and military in the tent. Hearing so much good news, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
The atmosphere that was originally oppressive and suffocating suddenly became lighter.
Within half a moment, Cao Ang entered the tent door again. Behind him was Xia Houen, who had a dusty look on his face and was full of loyalty.
The most powerful general in Cao Cao's army held a wooden box solemnly in his hands. He took a few steps forward, bowed in front of Cao Cao, and raised the wooden box in his hand.
"My lord, Yuan Shu executed me, and the jade seal was obtained by me. The jade seal passed down to the country has returned to the hands of the Han officials!"
While Xia Houen was talking, Cao Cao had already opened the wooden box and held up the jade seal.
Ever since Xiliang soldiers and horses massacred Luoyang, the jade seal passed down to the country has been covered in dust for a long time.
Cao Cao carefully looked at what Xia Houen sent, his face reflected in the light of gold and jade. After a long time, he put down the jade seal, stroked his beard and laughed.
"Sure enough, it is the jade seal passed down to the country. This thing is the representation of my lineage from the Nine Provinces and the imperial lineage!"
"The jade seal is back in place, En'er, you and Datong deserve a lot of credit!"
"Come, come, come, let's talk about how Datong got Shouchun after the Huai River. Then Sun Zhongmou, can't he come to Huainan in person?"
Cao Cao was full of doubts. Xia Houen became the center of attention at this time. When he heard the word "en'er", the boss's family saw a golden avenue appearing at his feet.
Xia Hou Enqiang suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, and imitated his indifferent temperament, telling Lu Xun and Zhou Tai how to covet the jade seal. When the Soochow army did not arrive, Qiao Rui persuaded them to surrender all the way, and won the Shouchun incident without a single blow.
.
Sooner or later, everyone in the world will know Qiao Rui's identity. Xia Houen, in the end, also pointed out that this person is Fang Guang's father-in-law.
"Okay! God bless me, I didn't expect that a relationship between a man and a woman would solve the crisis in Shouchun!"
"Datong is truly a blessed general!"
"Hmph, Sun Quan is so rude, does he want to imitate the Xiliang bandits, occupy Jiangdong to protect himself, and divide the Han Dynasty?"
Who is Cao Cao? When he heard that Jiangdong troops were not coming, he had already guessed what Sun Quan was thinking. This man actually dared to steal something from him. At this moment, Sun Quan had become an untrustworthy person in Cao Cao's heart.
Cao Cao was overjoyed, and Xun Yu could only look up to the sky and sigh after hearing Xia Houen's story.
In the tent, Yang Xiu's face turned green and red for a while. The cleverness he was so proud of seemed like a joke in front of the talent of the yellow turban captain.
Yang Xiu comes from a high-ranking family and has a smooth life. He has been known as a child prodigy since he was a child. Underneath his wild humor, he is actually extremely proud and has a sense of superiority that can crush anyone in the world with his IQ.
This feeling is the foundation of Yang Xiu's life, but today, it was trampled by Fang Guang here.
Fang Guang doesn't know that the inexplicable jealousy makes him very unreasonable and adds a powerful enemy in the world!
Since Shouchun has been captured, Xia Houen even said that the young man would lead his troops north after three days of training, so it would be the best choice for Cao's army to station here and wait for Fang Guang to join forces and fight Lu Bu again.
On that day, Cao Cao announced the great victory of Shouchun in the camp, and the morale of the soldiers who were low in morale was immediately lifted.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, under Liu Bei's instructions, excused themselves because of their illness. In fact, they also targeted Cao Junzhong. Only by imprisoning Zhang and Zhang could they be able to defeat Lu Bu, so they made a self-proclaimed move.
Like Yang Xiu's cleverness, Xuande's cleverness also became a joke after the news of the young man's victory.
The magic star hit by the big ear caused the value of the three brothers to plummet. Liu Bei, who originally wanted to bargain with Cao Cao, could only grit his teeth and wait for Fang Guangbei to arrive.
