Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

"Cao Cao sent troops to attack Xuzhou, Tao Qian wrote a letter to thank him with grain, grass, and thousands of stones. A certain person wanted to send troops north to help Tao Qian. How about the public's wishes?" Yuan Shu said lazily.

Engaged in Yan Xiang praised: "Lord, Cao Cao is Yuan Shao's support. If he occupies Xuzhou, the flank of our army will definitely be threatened. Moreover, Tao Qian is an ally of our army and must help."

Yuan Shuman nodded carelessly. Tao Qian was originally an ally, and Cao Cao was the enemy of Yuan Shao. Moreover, Tao Qian sent him grain, grass, and thousands of stones. He also felt that he should send troops to help Tao Qian.

"In that case, Zhang Xun will lead ten thousand soldiers..."

"Master, wait a minute, someone has a plan!" Chang Shi Yang Hong suddenly stopped.

Yuan Shu frowned: "Yang Changshi, are you against a certain rescue of Tao Qian?"

Yang Hong sternly said: "Exactly."

Yuan Shu looked surprised: "This is strange. Tao Qian was originally an ally of our army. Besides, he also promised to have a lot of resources. As long as he agrees, even if he does not defeat Cao Cao, he can at least get all kinds of food for nothing. How can such a good thing be rejected? ?"

Yang Hong said with a smile: "Lord, although Cao Cao has a sharp military front, Tao Qian has been operating in Xuzhou for many years. Even if there is no one to help, it will be difficult to tell the outcome between the two eagerly. If you wait until the last two wins and loses, At that time, our army would take advantage of the emptiness to expel Cao Cao and annex Xuzhou. At that time, our army will be sitting on Yuzhou, Yangzhou, and Xuzhou. Isn’t it invincible in the world?"

Yuan Shu was taken aback and nodded.

"Don't be the lord!" Yan Xiang said loudly, "As the saying goes, people do not stand without trust. The lord and Tao Qian are allies. Now they are sitting and watching their allies fail without sending troops to rescue them. I dare to ask who would dare to believe the lord in the future?

Yang Hong laughed, and said with disdain to Yan Xiang: "Yan engaged in the battle of the Ma Ling of Qi and Wei, when Wei attacked South Korea and South Korea asked Qi for help. King Qi Wei adopted Sun Bin's strategy and promised to send troops to assist South Korea. It’s just a view from the sidelines. After the war between Han and Wei for a long time, they suddenly sent troops to attack the capital of Wei, and Wei’s tired division returned to aid and was defeated. Isn’t Yan engaged in thinking that Sun Bin’s strategy is not as good as your Yan’s?"

Yan Xiang said angrily: "Can this be compared? Sun Bin encircles Wei and saves Zhao, can our army still attack Linzi City?"

"All right!"

Yuan Shu heard the two arguing and shouted impatiently.

"Yang Changshi's strategy is good. Our army can promise Tao Qian, and then Zhang Xun will lead ten thousand troops to station in Xiao County, Peiguo. When the two are strong and weak, they will send troops to expel Cao Cao and seize Xuzhou. , Can also put Xuzhou into the bag." Yuan Shu said complacently.

Yang Hong was overjoyed: "The Lord has made it clear, although the blockbuster King Qi Wei cannot be compared."

Yuan Shu laughed: "This is natural."

"Lord!" Yan Xiang sighed, bowing his head in despair.

"Okay, let's all go down. When Sun Ce returns from the victory in the attack on Yangzhou, I will order him to go north to attack Xuzhou as the general."

After all, everyone under Yuan Shu's account went out, Yang Hong triumphant, while Yan Xiang stared at Yang Hong with a rather complicated eye.

"Haha, Yan is engaged. Although the lord has adopted a plan, he doesn't have to hate Yang so much, right?" Yang Hong smiled.

Yan Xiang snorted, "You must be the one who is in trouble with the main cause!"

Yang Hong disdainfully said: "Yan is engaged, don't be embarrassed to become angry, a certain strategy to obtain Xuzhou for the lord, to prosper the cause, is it the cause of chaos and the lord?"

After all, Yang Hong no longer paid attention to Yan Xiang, but turned and boarded the carriage.

Back in the mansion, waiting until that night, there was a mysterious visitor in the Yang mansion.

"Mr. Xi Zhicai, please rest assured that Mr. X has already convinced the lord, but when the time comes, the lord will follow Bian Zhuang's stabbing tiger and occupy Xuzhou, but X can not be dissuaded." Yang Hong said to the gray clothes humanely.

"Haha, then Cao Gong has his own countermeasures, but Yang Changshi is bothered." The man in gray smiled and said, "Someone buried two thousand gold under a big locust tree five miles away from the east of the city and did it. Mark, Yang Changshi can dig."

When Yang Hong heard the daughter, his eyes lighted up, and he said with joy: "It's easy to say, I thanked Cao Gong for a certain."

Yan County.

"Lord." Xi Zhicai said: "A certain person has successfully persuaded Yang Hong. According to the information, although Yuan Shu sent his general Zhang Xun to lead 10,000 troops northward, he was stationed in Xiaoxian County of Peiguo and did not enter Xuzhou."

It turned out that Xi Zhi had long expected that Tao Qian would ask Yuan Shu for reinforcements. Although Yuan Shu was foolish, it was definitely impossible not to deal with Cao Cao.

Xi Zhi is good at perceiving people's hearts, and taking advantage of Yuan Shu's character of greed, he bought Chang Shi Yang Hong and persuaded Yuan Shu to stand still.

Cao Cao laughed and said disdainfully: "Yuan Shu'er, greedy, wanting to get ten thousand stones and grass, and want to win Xuzhou, how can there be such a good thing? Tao Qian has been in Xuzhou for many years, and he is very popular. The geographical position resists our army's front. Yuan Shu sent Sun Ce to attack Yangzhou. Now Sun Ce is fighting with Liu Youfei. He also wants to send troops to intervene in Xuzhou. Wouldn't the two-line battle be self-defeating?"

Xi Zhicai nodded: "Yes, although Yuan Shu currently has one in Yuzhou and Yangzhou, he is greedy and not difficult to deal with. Instead, Tao Qian is deeply rooted in Xuzhou and hard to deal with."

Cao Cao looked solemn and asked, "What are your plans?"

Xi Zhicai thought for a while, and said: "Our army can send a strange soldier into the enemy's territory, secretly, and wait until Xiapi City suddenly attack. Tao Qian must be frightened, and will ask Cao Bao for help when he is panicked."

Cheng Yu interrupted and said: "At that time, our army set up an ambush midway and ambushed Cao Bao's Danyang army.

"Yes, Cao Bao's 20,000 Danyang soldiers are the main force of the Xuzhou Army. Once the Danyang soldiers are eliminated by our army, Xuzhou can be fixed at night!" Xizhi said with pride.

Cao Cao smiled: "Okay."

"Xiahouyuan listen to the order!" Cao Cao said to Xiahouyuan.

Xia Houyuan stepped forward and held his head high: "The end is here, please let the lord give orders."

"Xia Houyuan, give you five thousand elite soldiers, move forward at extreme speed. You must arrive in Xiapi City within two days and launch a fierce attack to force Tao Qian to ask Cao Bao for help."

Xia Houyuan clasped his fist and said: "Please rest assured, you will move at full speed at the end, and you will arrive at Xiapi City in the first day!"

Among the generals of the Cao army, Xia Houyuan has always been known for his rapid advances. The number of the military officer said: Xia Houyuan, Lieutenant of the Military Academy, five hundred for three days and one thousand for six days. In the Qingzhou Yellow Turban peace battle, Xia Houyuan led the army alone, leading 8,000 people to speed 800 miles in four days, abruptly stopping the Yellow Turban thief at the border of Qingzhou and Yanzhou, and in the case of a rapid march, he defeated more than 30,000 Yellow Turbans. thief.

Seeing that Xia Houyuan was about to walk out of the camp gate, the guard outside the gate suddenly shouted.

"Lord! General Liu Ye from the chariot has arrived!"
