Three Kingdoms: The Orphan Begins, Cao Cao Teaches Me To Be Emperor

The four generals of the Cao army were scolding for three days in a row, but the prince of Shouchun City could not hold out.

Three days later, Cao Cao led 30,000 main troops and horses to reach the outside of Shouchun City.

The next day, he ordered the attack on Shouchun City.

From sunrise to sunset, the blood-stained moat killed by the two armies was full of corpses.

That night the troops were collected and returned to the camp.

Cao Cao summoned the civil and military to the Chinese army to discuss the matter.

Cao Hong said: "Prime Minister, in today's battle, our army lost more than 3,000 soldiers and horses, and the enemy suffered more than 2,000 injuries!"

Xiahou Yuan also said: "Prime Minister, you will definitely be able to break through Shouchun City in fifteen days at most!"

"Fifteen?" Cao Cao immediately shook his head: "In half a month, Yuan Shu's rescue is enough to return to Shouchun City!"

Cao Hong said again: "If you storm at all costs, you can break the city in eight days at most!" "

Cao's army has 50,000 soldiers and horses stationed outside Shouchun City.

But there were nearly 10,000 defenders in Shouchun City.

Cao Cao's superiority in strength was only five times the number, not ten.

But these 50,000 are all elite soldiers, not weaker than 100,000 troops.

It is not easy to storm Shouchun City on the fifteenth.

Breaking Shouchun City within eight days, Cao Jun can do it, but it will inevitably suffer heavy losses.

Cao Ren immediately said: "Prime Minister, if you can't break Shouchun City early, everything will be wasted!" "

The Cao army raided Shouchun City, and it was a time difference.

Once Yuan Shu's reinforcements returned to Shouchun, it would be difficult to fight.

Cao Cao looked at the few strategists in the big tent, hoping that they would come up with a good plan.

Xun You said: "Prime Minister, the onslaught has suffered heavy losses, it is better to lure the enemy out of the city and annihilate them all!"

Cao Cao shook his head: "Yuan Yao is as timid as a mouse, I'm afraid he won't go out of the city easily!"

Cheng Yu then said: "Prime Minister, I think that we can besiege the city and send reinforcements, our army will slow down the attack on Shouchun City, and when Yuan Shu's reinforcements arrive, they will be annihilated in one fell swoop!"

Cao Cao still shook his head: "Although the siege is good, it still can't break through Shouchun City, once Yuan Shu returns to Shouchun City, there will be endless troubles!"

Cheng Yu and Xun You were silent.

The idea is a good idea, but it's not very feasible.

Cao Cao pondered for a moment and looked at the inconspicuous Chao Rui in the corner.

"Rui'er, it is your strategy to take Shouchun City directly, and now that you have broken Shouchun City, do you have a good plan?"

Chao Rui took half a step forward and gestured to Cao Cao: "Prime Minister, I thought that when the law of curves broke Wancheng!"

"What is the method of curves?" Cao Cao asked.

Chao Rui said: "Shouchun City's strong attack casualties are too large, but Yuan Yao can't come out, our army can take Lujiang City to the south, and then Shouchun City will be destroyed without attack!"

Cao Hong immediately stood up and refuted Chao Rui: "Little doll, you miscalculated this time!" "

Why did the general say that?" Chao Rui looked at Cao Hong puzzled.

Cao Hong said: "Lujiang is the basic plate of Yuan Shu, and the soldiers in the city are full of food, and they are not easy to mess with!" "

Yes!" Chao Rui nodded.

Cao Hong smiled: "Then how do you break the city?" How to make Shouchun self-defeating?

Chao Rui said, "Two of them plus a letter!" "

Bragging!" Cao Hong immediately waved his hand, very disdainful.

Since the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, Cao Ren, Cao Hong and other Cao family generals have been quite dissatisfied with Chao Rui.

In the eyes of the Cao family, Chao Rui is at most the son-in-law of the Xiahou family.

But riding on the head of Cao Ang, the son of the Cao family, is not to take the Cao family in his eyes.

Prime Minister favors you, but the rest of our Cao family is not used to you kid!

Although Cao Hong did not dare to express his dissatisfaction head-on, he still had the courage to seize the opportunity to attack Chao Rui.

Cao Cao also smiled: "Rui'er, how can the two of you and a letter break Lujiang City, and how can you make Shouchun self-defeating?"

Chao Rui immediately said: "I remember, Lujiang Taishou Liu Xun and the prime minister are old friends, right?" "

Hmm!" Cao Cao nodded: "That's right, I can repair a letter to persuade Liu Xun to surrender." But now that I have long been estranged from him, I am afraid that I will not be surrendered!

Chao Rui nodded and said, "This is going to mention my other two!"

"Which two?" Cao Cao asked.

Chao Rui smiled: "Jiang Gan, Liu Ye!"

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the big tent.

Liu Ye and Jiang Gan are both Cao Ying's advisers, but their status is far inferior to Cheng Yu, Xun You and others.

At such a critical moment, Chao Rui pushed out the two people, which inevitably made people suspicious.

In the face of doubts, Chao Rui continued:

"Jiujiang Jiang Gan, who can speak well, has the name of being a unique leader in Huainan!"

"Huainan Liu Ye, who became famous at a young age, has the talent of the world, and when he entered the office, he was engaged in Liu Xun's account, and then defected to the prime minister!"

"This Huainan Ershi entered the Lujiang River, supplemented by the Prime Minister's letter, under coercion and temptation, does Liu Xun have a reason not to surrender?"

Cao Cao smiled: "From here to Lujiang, it only takes three days to go back and forth, you can indeed give it a try!"

Chao Rui said: "If Lujiang Liu Xun surrenders, he can be ordered to lure Yuan Yao out of the city in the name of reinforcing Shouchun." Since then, isn't Shouchun self-defeating? "

Hahaha!" Cao Cao laughed, pointed at Cao Hong and said, "Zilian, what else do you have to say?"

Cao Hong: "I... I think this doll is indeed a little capable, a little capable!

Cao Cao then said: "Liu Ye, Jiang Gan listens to the order!" "

Please command, Prime Minister!"

Jiang Gan and Liu Ye stood up one after another, showing a grateful smile to Chao Rui.

The two were the first to associate with Chao Rui and were known as the two friends of the crow.

With this opportunity and Chao Rui's recommendation, this is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity for the two to make meritorious contributions.

"I will immediately repair a letter and order the two of you to go to Lujiang to see Liu Xun as soon as possible, there must be no mistake!"

"Obey the Prime Minister's orders!" The two of them bowed and saluted.

As soon as the morning dawned, the two of them took Cao Cao's letter and took a fast boat down the river and went straight to Lujiang City.

Liu Xun, the Taishou of Lujiang, learned that Jiang Gan and Liu Ye were visiting, and personally went out of the house to greet them.

"Ziyang, you and I have said goodbye to Lujiang, I haven't seen you for a long time!"

Liu Xun excitedly shook Liu Ye's hand.

When Liu Ye went to Cao Cao, he persuaded Liu Xun to go with him.

But Liu Xun was reluctant to take up his duty and rejected Liu Ye.

"Liu Fujun!" Liu Ye bowed his hand, and then asked, "Do you know the one next to me?"

Liu Xun looked at the man carefully, and suddenly exclaimed: "Jiujiang General Ziyi? There are no two people in Huainan alone? "

Hahaha!" Jiang Gan smiled and arched his hand: "It is under the bottom, Brother Zitai is serious!" "

Two gentlemen, hurry up and follow me into the house!"

Liu Xun took Jiang Gan with his left hand, Liu Ye with his right hand, and pulled the two of them to sit down and watch the tea reception.

After drinking tea, Liu Xun got straight to the point and said: "Dare to ask what identity did the two of you enter my Lujiang today?" "

Both of them are Huainan celebrities, if they come to reminisce about the past, Liu Xun will have a way to entertain them.

If the two of them are Cao Cao's envoys, they will be entertained with envoy courtesy.

Jiang Gan said: "Messenger identity!

Liu Ye said: "Visit the old staff!"

Liu Xun was stunned, one of these two people was catching up with him, and the other was to envoy Lujiang.

For a while, it was overwhelming.

Liu Ye stretched out his hand and signaled: "Messenger, please!" "

You're welcome!" Jiang Gan immediately took out Cao Cao's letter and handed it to Liu Xun. "

This is?" Liu Xun was surprised.

Jiang Gandao: "The prime minister learned that Zitai was in Lujiang, and he wrote a letter to me to send it here!" "

Mengde, remember me?" Liu Xun was very moved.

Cao Cao had a friendship with him, but not deeply.

Unexpectedly, Cao Cao could still think of him at this time!

Liu Xun slowly opened the letter.

saw Cao Cao's praise for him throughout the article, and even praised him as the first person to govern the Lujiang River.

For a while, Liu Xun's eyes were red with emotion.

Who is Cao Cao? Be the prime minister!

Just taking out this letter, Liu Xun can boast for three years!

And the most subtle thing about this letter is that it first reminisces about the old days and then praises Liu Xun.

As for the persuasion, there is no mention of it.

"The prime minister has a heart!" Liu Xun slowly put down the letter.

Jiang Gandao: "The puppet emperor Yuan Shu defeated Xuzhou, and the imperial army besieged Shouchun City, why didn't Zitai find a way out as soon as possible?"

Liu Ye said again: "Liu Fujun loves the people like a son, you don't want Lujiang City to fall into the flames of war, right?" "
