Three Kingdoms: Allied Forces Humiliated Me, Turned To Dong Zhuo And Married Dong Bai

Chapter 138 Guo Jia: My Lord, Take A Gamble, You Might Win The Bet!

After Chen Deng, Cao Bao, and Mi Zhu finalized the matter of surrender, they felt much less anxious.

And the candidate to go to Gu Yi as an envoy is naturally Sun Qian who can speak well.

but.

Because the road between Xuzhou and Chang'an is far apart.

Even if Sun Qian is going fast.

Go to Chang'an with the fastest speed.

It will also take some time to arrive.

before that.

Cao Bao, Mi Zhu, and Chen Deng needed to do their best to block Cao Jun's onslaught.

Otherwise, if the whole territory of Xuzhou is attacked by Cao Cao, everything will be ruined.

The difference in combat effectiveness between different armies is too great.

Although the individual combat effectiveness of Cao Jun soldiers can't keep up with Dong Zhuo Jun's elite.

But if compared with the Xuzhou army, it is more than a little bit stronger.

Especially after Xiaopei, an important military town at the northern end of Xuzhou, was breached.

Cao Bao, Mi Zhu, Chen Deng and others had no choice but to concentrate their forces to defend Pengcheng.

In a blink of an eye, ten days have passed.

Cao Jun has also moved from Xiaopei to Pengcheng, starting the siege of Pengcheng.

The offensive and defensive battle between the two parties officially started.

The supreme commander of Cao's soldiers is Cao Cao himself.

Other than that.

Cao Ren, Cao Chun, Li Dian, Lu Qian, Li Tong and other Cao Ying generals were all in the ranks of the offensive.

As for Xia Houyuan and Le Jin, they stayed behind in Yuzhou, which was captured not long ago.

Although after the second crusade against the coalition of princes.

Cao Ying lost the two generals Yu Jin and Cao Hong.

But the remaining generals are enough for the Xuzhou defenders to eat a pot.

after all.

The person who commanded the Xuzhou defenders to fight was none other than General Xuzhou Cao Bao.

This Cao Bao is just a relatively high status.

The real swordsman and general Cao Jun are not opponents at all.

Fortunately.

Chen Deng and Mi Zhu also spared no effort to assist Cao Bao in defending Pengcheng.

This is the only way to stop Cao Jun's onslaught.

But the situation is still not optimistic for the Xuzhou defenders.

If there is no intervention of external forces.

Sooner or later, he will be defeated by Cao Jun.

Chang'an

713 Prime Minister's Mansion

Gu Yi met Sun Qian here.

Gu Yi was a little surprised that Chen Deng, Mi Zhu, Cao Bao and others were willing to surrender voluntarily.

However, it makes sense to think about it carefully.

For Xuzhou, surrendering Cao Cao is really not a good strategy.

But if he surrendered to Yuan Shao, it would be no different from surrendering to Cao Cao.

In this way, it would be better to surrender to Gu Yi directly.

Not only can he save his own life, but he can also be regarded as returning to the Han court.

And after learning the news that Cao Cao sent troops to Xuzhou.

All the civil and military personnel under Gu Yi's tent also hoped that Gu Yi could send troops as soon as possible.

But for Gu Yi.

If it is possible to capture Yuzhou and Xuzhou together.

Yanzhou, Cao Cao's old nest, located in the middle of Henan and Xuzhou, will appear to be surrounded.

At that time, Cao Cao will no longer have any room for development and will be struggling.

Soldiers are expensive and fast.

Gu Yi decided to send Lu Bu and Zhao Yun to lead Bingzhou wolf cavalry and Xiliang iron cavalry to bypass Yuzhou first to support Xuzhou.

At this moment, the commander of the Cao camp staying in Yuzhou is Xia Houyuan.

But even if Xia Houyuan wanted to stop Zhao Yun and Lu Bu, he might be powerless.

after all.

Except for the cavalry unit led by Zhao Yun and Lu Bu.

Gu Yi also decided to personally lead 100,000 troops and flee to Yuzhou.

After accumulating for so long, Dong Zhuojun's strength has already reached an unprecedented height.

The soldiers are gearing up and ready to fight.

As for the news of dispatching troops, Gu Yi did not intend to hide it at all.

His purpose is to make Cao Jun's soldiers panic.

And except for Cao Cao.

Gu Yi also planned to besiege the city and fight for aid.

Through the Yuzhou battlefield, the war potential of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao will be squeezed out as much as possible!

Xuzhou

Outside Pengcheng

"What!?"

"Gu Linzhi personally led the army and went to Yuzhou?"

In the camp of Cao Jun.

When Cao Cao heard the news, he couldn't help but have a headache.

Why did Cao Cao attack Xuzhou?

To put it bluntly, I hope to swallow the land of Xuzhou as quickly as possible through a "blitzkrieg".

In this way.

Cao Cao occupies the land of Yanyu and Xusanzhou.

Plus Yuan Shao as reinforcements.

It can effectively build a line of defense against Gu Yi's eastward expansion!

But now, it will take some time to conquer Pengcheng.

In the land of Yuzhou, there were only more than 50,000 people around Xia Houyuan.

In the face of Gu Yi's personal command.

Cao Cao didn't think that with Xia Houyuan's level, he could stop Gu Yi.

"Everyone, how should we deal with this matter?"

Cao Cao called all the civil and military under his account to discuss countermeasures.

for a while.

There are proposals to continue the siege of Pengcheng.

There are also proposals to withdraw troops and return to defend Yuzhou.

On the contrary, Guo Jia, the newly joined counselor, was full of smiles, and seemed to have a corresponding countermeasure in mind.

Cao Cao couldn't help looking sideways at Guo Jia, and asked:

"Feng Xiao, how do you think this matter should be dealt with?"

Guo Jia first unscrewed the jug, took a big gulp of wine, then swallowed the wine, and replied with a smile:

"My lord, do you dare to take a gamble?"

Before the words fell, Chen Qun, who was standing by the side, scolded sharply:

"Bold Guo Fengxiao!"

"Marching and fighting is the most important thing, how can we decide by gambling?"

However.

Guo Jia didn't care about Chen Qun's reprimand.

Although, Guo Jia is also a member of Yingchuan Group.

But in the Yingchuan Group, there are also high and low.

Guo Jia and Guo Tu under Yuan Shao's tent belonged to the same family.

But Guo Tu is a member of the direct line of the Guo family in Yingchuan, and Guo Jia is just a remote collateral.

Chen Qun's corresponding identity is similar to Guo Tu's, and he is a direct descendant of the Chen family in Runan.

Two years ago, after the death of Chen Qun's father, Chen Ji.

Chen Qun even took the lead and became the new patriarch of the Chen family.

Now, Chen Qun brought the entire Chen family into Cao Cao's arms.

Guo Jia, on the other hand, is more like a trial investment of Yingchuan Guo's family under Cao Cao's account.

Only Guo Tu represents the real future of their Yingchuan Guo family!

thus.

Chen Qun looked down on Guo Jia who was unkempt and unmannered.

There is no confrontation between the two of them at all.

And similar things have happened in history.

Chen Qun reported Guo Jia to Cao Cao every now and then, hoping that Cao Cao would severely punish Guo Jia.

But how could the relationship between Guo Jia and Cao Cao make Cao Cao ruthless to deal with him?

Therefore, every time Chen Qun made a small report, it ended up being nothing.

And now.

Although Guo Jia has only joined Cao Ying not long ago.

But Chen Qun seemed to have encountered a natural enemy, and Guo Jia started all kinds of counterattacks.

Automatically ignoring (cfai) Chen Qun's attack, Cao Cao couldn't help but feel a little curious about Guo Jia's proposal, and asked with a smile:

"Feng Xiao, let's talk about it, what kind of gambling method do you want to talk about?"

With Cao Cao's support, Guo Jia poured himself another sip of wine and replied:

"If the lord returns to Yuzhou immediately, I'm afraid there will be no chance to take down Xuzhou from now on."

"But if the lord does not return to Yuzhou, with the help of General Miaocai and his soldiers, he will definitely not be Gu Linzhi's opponent."

"But in fact, besides returning to the army directly, there is another way to solve the current crisis."

"My lord, you can ask Yuan Benchu ​​for reinforcements."

"He will not be ignorant of the reason why the lips are dead and the teeth are cold."

"However, Yuan Benchu's reinforcements should be used, that is, the lord needs to bet.

"If my lord uses Yuan Benchu's reinforcements to rescue Yuzhou."

"Then our main force can continue to besiege Pengcheng."

"But if Yuan Benchu ​​and General Miaocai are defeated by Gu Linzhi together, the situation will become very dangerous.

"on the contrary."

"If my lord uses Yuan Benchu's reinforcements to besiege Pengcheng."

"Then we can bring a part of the army back to Yuzhou to support Caiqiang.

"But if this is the case, the difficulty of capturing Pengcheng will undoubtedly increase exponentially."

"After all, it is impossible for Yuan Benchu's army to be willing to help us attack Pengcheng at the cost of heavy casualties."

"That's my plan."

"It's up to the lord to decide how to choose."

After Guo Jia's voice fell, Cao Cao fell into silence.

actually.

Guo Jia's strategy sounds very compelling.

But in summary, it is actually easy to understand.

The core is how to use the reinforcements sent by Yuan Shao.

The current situation is equivalent to the two battlefields of Yuzhou and Xuzhou.

Relying on Cao Jun's own strength, it is not enough to fight on two battlefields at the same time.

Therefore, Yuan Shao was required to send troops to help.

But Yuan Shao can only choose one battlefield to support at most.

Either it is to support the Yuzhou battlefield, or it is to support the Pengcheng battlefield.

If Yuan Shao sent troops to support the Yuzhou battlefield, Cao Cao could continue to attack Pengcheng with the main force.

Conversely, if Yuan Shao sent troops to support the Pengcheng battlefield, Cao Cao would need to send some soldiers to Yuzhou to support Xiahouyuan.

The two directions may lead to completely different results.

But for Cao Cao.

There is only one chance to capture Xuzhou!

Compared with the soldiers sent by Yuan Shao, there is no doubt that the soldiers under Cao Cao's own account are more reliable.

Only Cao Jun besieges Pengcheng by himself, and the chance to capture Pengcheng is the leader of the regiment!

But corresponding.

If Cao Cao wants to continue to attack Pengcheng, Xia Houyuan on the Yuzhou battlefield can only be handed over to Yuan Shao for rescue.

This is a very difficult multiple choice question.

If not make the best option.

It is very likely that both Xuzhou and Yuzhou will be lost!

finally.

Still profit and greed have the upper hand.

Cao Cao decided not to withdraw his troops and continued to besiege Pengcheng.

Xia Houyuan in Yuzhou relied on Yuan Shao's reinforcements.

The gambler's psychology, once the bet is won, will indeed gain a lot of benefits.

But once the bet is lost, the bankruptcy of the family is definitely only a snap of the fingers.

Cao Cao in history won many bets.

can now.

All historical trends have long been different from the original.

How could luck favor Cao Cao for no reason?

Jizhou

Yecheng

Yuan Shao soon received an invitation from Cao Cao for help.

In this regard, Yuan Ying's counselors surprisingly unified their opinions this time.

Without any dispute, all agreed to send troops to help Cao Cao.

after all.

The lips are dead and the teeth are cold.

If Cao Cao gets angry, how can Diao resist Gu Yi?

"Yan Liang, Chunyu Qiong, Tian Feng, and Guo Tu listen to the order!"

"For this battle, I entrust you with 70,000 soldiers and horses, and you must assist Xia Houyuan in defending Yuzhou.

Yuan Shao was not stingy at all with the number of soldiers under his command, and sent a full 70,000 troops!

But...the leading lineup he dispatched had a lot of omissions.

Yan Liang and Chunyu Qiong were fine.

Both of them are veterans under Yuan Shao's tenure, and they are on good terms with each other.

But Tian Feng and Guo Tu???

this.......

When these two get together, they look like they are about to go bad.

Ju Shou and Xu You are waiting to stand up and persuade Yuan Shao to adjust the specific candidates for the expedition.

But they haven't waited for them to speak.

Suddenly, an unyielding voice came from the other side:

"Why didn't you call me for the dispatch of troops?"

"Could it be that my lord thinks I'm not qualified?"

"Hmph! Xiliang cavalry? Bingzhou wolf cavalry?"

"I will tell him to come and go!"

The one who speaks is the face!
