The reason why Xiahou Dun is not familiar to most people in later generations, and when Du Niangqun searched it, all of them were about Xiahou Dun's summit, Xiahou Dun's techniques and other pesticide strategies. Perhaps part of it is because of the name.
"Dun" originally means honest and honest, but most people seem to only remember Xun Yu as a bitch, and only remember Xiahou Dun as a carrot. Just imagine if Xiahou Dun's name is changed to "Xiahou Diao, whose courtesy name is Zhaotian", I'm afraid that
It will leave an indelible impression on the minds of many people in future generations.
"The status of the Hussar and the Western Qin is complete!" Xiahou Dun said through gritted teeth, "If the world cannot be united...what do you want when the Hussar comes today?"
Li Dian said in a low voice: "What Hussar said was that he wanted to sacrifice his captives in front of Danjie..."
Xiahou Dun was stunned for a moment, then sneered: "Shan! If so, I will hand it over to Your Majesty from someone! General Hussars, is that okay?"
Li Dian did not answer the question, but continued: "In addition, Hussar also said that his Majesty had made great achievements in conquering the Hu Yi, and came here to ask for credit from Your Majesty..."
If Xiahou Dun could claim to be the Hussar's handover before, it's hard to say that he will approve it on behalf of the Emperor now. Although Liu Xie is already like a puppet, he still needs to cover it up, not to mention that Cao Cao used Yuan Shao's name to disrespect the Emperor.
He gathered his head in Jizhou to gather the aristocratic nobles, and then turned around and immediately showed such a face. Are you afraid that trouble will immediately arise?
Although Liu Xie does not have much power in his hands, he still needs to go through the formalities. Just like the current Shangshu Order in Xu County has always been under the control of Xun Yu, but every time he still goes through a certain process at the court meeting...
Obviously, no matter what, Xiahou Dun could not let Fei Qian bypass Yangcheng so easily.
Although they are both from the Xiahou family of Pei State, Xiahou Dun's family conditions are undoubtedly better, at least better than Xiahou Yuan's. Xiahou Dun, speaking of it, is actually a juvenile criminal who stabbed people, because the underage bail... ahem, because
Due to his family background, he did not suffer any crime for this. Xia Houyuan on the other side wanted to help Cao Cao take the blame. His son starved to death during the famine years. Therefore, in the Han Dynasty, it was not important whether the law was illegal, what was important was that
What, everyone knows. If Xiahou Dun is the second in command of Cao Cao's political gang, Xiahou Yuan is really just a horse boy.
After Cao Cao raised his army, Xiahou Dun basically held the position of confidant. He even succeeded Cao Cao as the governor of the Eastern Capital. When Cao Cao went to attack Xuzhou and Hebei, Xiahou Dun also guarded the home in the rear. Cao Cao even became suspicious of his own son.
, will be willing to let Xiahou Dun guard the family, which can also prove something.
Therefore, Xiahou Dun would not let Fei Qian pass through Yangcheng like this no matter what. "I am worried that Mancheng will go there again and just say such and such..."
Even though he would have to pay a huge price to block and consume the Hussars, Xiahou Dun still had to do it for Cao Cao!
…oo…
Seeing Li Dian standing at the bottom with a slightly embarrassed expression, Fei Qian smiled slightly and said, "It's hard work... You might as well take a break for a while..."
Li Dian also understood that it was not convenient for him to be present, so after conveying Xiahou Dun's intention, he left Fei Qian's tent without a single hand and went down to wait.
Fei Qian looked at Li Dian's leaving figure and suddenly said: "So, Zhu and Zhang must have really gone to Jingzhou..." Although Fei Qian had obtained some information through previous understanding, after all, this information came from
What the opponent obtained may not be completely counted, so until now, when the army was approaching Yangcheng, Xiahou Dun also did not threaten Zhu and Zhang. Generally speaking, it means that Zhu and Zhang have indeed separated.
The area controlled by Cao Jun.
Xun You was stunned for a moment, then he raised his hands and said, "My lord is unparalleled in benevolence and virtue. You... I admire you so much..."
Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao on the side were also a little surprised. They didn't expect that this was Fei Qian's first reaction after listening to Li Dian's words.
Fei Qian waved his hand slightly, feeling that Xun You's flattery was a bit substandard, but having said that, Xun You himself was not very good at flattering, so he generally ignored it, "On the battlefield, swords and guns have no eyes, so-called kindness."
If you don't control soldiers...if you treat your soldiers like nothing and just fight and lose them, you may not be called a general..." In fact, Fei Qian's habit is also some of the obsessive-compulsive disorder brought about by later games, just like a life
Clear the level, pass the overall situation without loss, etc. If it is really irreversible, forget it, but if you can consume less, you should naturally consume as little as possible.
It's like the present moment.
Xiahou Dun knew the weaknesses of Fei Qian's elite military and political system. Could it be that Fei Qian himself didn't know it?
The current situation is somewhat like a Texas Hold'em poker table. Everyone takes turns placing bets, and then judges the size of the cards in each other's hands based on the chips the other party bets. Fei Qian suddenly launched his troops and conquered Yangcheng Village within a few hours.
, and then came to Yangcheng, it was like pushing a lot of chips directly under Xiahou Dun's nose, forcing Xiahou Dun to make a decision.
Xiahou Dun wanted to keep up with ALLIN, but the problem was that Xiahou Dun didn't dare. It wasn't that Xiahou Dun was cowardly, but that first Fei Qian took Luoyang like a thunderbolt, and then in the blink of an eye he destroyed Yangcheng's stronghold. Both attempts failed.
It's a thunderous blast. Who can guarantee that Yangcheng's current situation is just a false shot?
Coupled with the defeat of Xiahou Yuan in the middle, if Yangcheng, the gateway to Yuzhou, is opened again, then Cao Cao's entire army will probably fall apart immediately! This is no joke. After all, Cao Cao's command, except for a few important central counties, is basically the same as that of later generations.
In the mission mode in the game, if these local noble families think that Cao Cao is just like this, and their minds are wrong, the situation may collapse immediately!
Maybe even Liu Biao, Jingzhou's original ally, would come up with some bad ideas.
Xiahou Dun's place here is equivalent to protecting the last face of Cao's army. There is no way to retreat, and there is no way to fight...
So, naturally, Xiahou Dun used a trick.
"This is Xiahou's plan to slow down his troops..." Zhang Liao said.
Zhao Yun also nodded and agreed.
Xiahou Dun said that since Fei Qian came to offer sacrifices and ask for merit, then bringing so many soldiers and horses to Xu County was unintentionally showing contempt for the Han Dynasty and a complete act of arrogance, so Xiahou Dun suggested
, either Fei Qian goes to Xu County with a small number of troops, or he waits here for the angel to come...
Is it possible for Fei Qian to abandon his troops and go deep into Cao's base camp with only a small number of guards? It's obviously impossible, so Xiahou Dun's idea is to blackmail Fei Qian and use Fei Qian's spear to attack Fei Qian's shield, isn't it?
Are you saying that this is not an act of rebellion, but an act of sacrificing prisoners for merit?
Therefore, for Xiahou Dun, on the surface, this method seems to avoid the possible adverse consequences of a head-on battle with Fei Qian, and on the other hand, it also reverses the situation and makes Fei Qian's original position of loyalty no longer
So stable.
But, is that really the case?
Fei Qian turned to look at Xun You and asked, "What do you think of Gongda?"
Xun You said with some helplessness: "Xiahou Yuanrang has always had a plan, I'm afraid it doesn't stop there..."
Fei Qian nodded and said, "This is a plan within a plan..."
There is almost no cover for Xiahou Dun's apparent delaying tactic, which means that Xiahou Dun seems to intend to let Fei Qian realize that this is a delaying tactic...
Is Xiahou Dun a dull man?
Obviously, it's not.
Xun You said that Xiahou Dun has always been strategic, which is not an exaggerated adjective. In Fei Qian's original impression, Xiahou Dun should be a fierce and strong man who wears a pirate eyepatch on his head and shouts for death or death at all times. The so-called one-eyed man
He is a cool uncle, he is ruthless and doesn't talk much, he can fight with few troubles, he is loyal and protects Brother Cao, and he is an unparalleled fierce general.
Many things recorded in historical books cannot be completely denied or believed. After all, there is a slight difference in the order before and after, which may be two different things. Just like the incident of Xiahou Dun throwing a mirror, Chen Shou specifically used pen and ink, and for Xiahou Dun's stability
On the home front, quelling the rebellion and other deeds are glimpsed...
Historically, in the twelfth year of Jian'an, Cao Cao rewarded his officials greatly, and Xiahou Dun ranked first in meritorious service. "Recording Dun's previous and later achievements, he increased the number of 1,800 households in the city and merged with the previous 2,500 households." Isn't Cao Cao stupid?
?Most of Cao Cao's men are not stupid, right? They are definitely not stupid. So from Cao Cao to the ministers, they all think that Xiahou Dun's meritorious service should be ranked first. This shows that although Xiahou Dun did not go to the front line to kill the enemy, he was still concerned about Cao Cao's front line operations at that time.
, it has indeed made a considerable contribution, and this contribution may mainly come from two aspects, one is logistics and the other is local stability.
From this point of view, Xiahou Dun would let Fei sneak over just to protect himself?
In history, Xiahou Dun most likely participated in Cao Cao's Battle of Hebei and the overall strategic planning of the Battle of Hedong. He even made special plans for the Jiangdong area to alienate Sun Ben and others and instigate rebellion. Chen Shou basically
The above is omitted, which makes us wonder if there is some PY transaction behind it.
Fortunately, Fei Qian now has Xun You, who is well versed in inside information about Cao Jun.
"Therefore, Xiahou's intention is not to slow down the troops..." Fei Qian nodded and said, this is also Fei Qian's judgment about Xiahou himself, "Xiahou is slowing down his troops, but he really wants to make someone advance quickly!"
One thing to be clear is that the relationship between Xiahou Dun and Cao Cao is definitely not just as simple as CP... Well, that's what it means anyway. Others may do things that are sorry for Cao Cao, but Xiahou Dun will never do it. Put it this way
, in fact, it seems that it is okay to say CP. Therefore, Xiahou Dun’s actions must be from the perspective of benefiting Cao Cao, so Xiahou Dun’s slightly strange actions at the moment are very "spontaneous"...
This is really to burn yourself and illuminate Cao Cao!
How would most people respond if they knew that the other party was using a delaying tactic? They would definitely do the opposite, and this is exactly what Xiahou Dun wanted to achieve. It was even possible that when Li Dian came over, his words were not relayed by Li Dian.
So polite, the purpose is to either make Fei Qian angry and attack Yangcheng, or to abandon Yangcheng and directly go south to attack Xu County.
Xiahou Dun had been stationed in Yangcheng for many years and was naturally quite confident in the city's defense system. Even though Xiahou Dun knew that Fei Qian's weapon would blow up the city gate, what would happen if Fei Qian blew up the city gate if he blocked the door with sand and gravel?
Therefore, relying on the city wall and consuming Fei Qian's troops was undoubtedly the best answer Xiahou Dun gave to Cao Cao.
Similarly, if Fei Qian tried to bypass Yangcheng and go directly south, it would be acceptable to Xiahou Dun, because in this way, Xiahou Dun could march into Luoyang in turn and cut off Fei Qian's return route. At the same time, he could follow Fei Qian and then
Yangzhai or Xu County are engaged in a pincer decisive battle...
Now speaking of it, Fei Qian can still choose to advance or retreat, but as soon as he passes Yangcheng, the direction of travel is completely determined, which is equivalent to Fei Qian playing his cards, like fireflies in the coal pile.
It is so conspicuous that whether it is Xiahou Dun, Xun Yu, or Cao Cao and others on the side, they will all follow the light and come...
Zhang Liao stroked his beard and glanced in the direction of Yangcheng, "You must have underestimated Xiahou!"
Zhao Yun is still the same as before, with a face as calm as water. It seems that everything in the world, no matter how strange, can't make Brother Zhao move his eyebrows more...
Fei Qian smiled and asked Xun You, "Does Gongda have any clever ideas?"
Xun You cupped his hands and said, "Since my lord has already made up his mind, why should I let you show off your humiliation?"
Fei Qian laughed twice and said, "That's it! Let me tell Li Mancheng that I have agreed to Xiahou's proposal! Wait here for the arrival of the angel!"
This plan is indeed a good move for Xiahou Dun, but the problem is that a good move must make people unclear about subsequent changes, and Xiahou Dun seems to be a little behind...
…?!…
Above Yangcheng, Xiahou Dun asked Li Dian with a hint of disbelief: "This, Hussar... actually agreed?! Is there any other explanation?"
Li Dian slowly shook his head. Although Li Dian was somewhat unhappy in his heart about Xiahou Dun's distrust, he didn't show anything on the surface.
"I know..." Xiahou Dun frowned, took two steps back and forth, turned to Li Dian and said, "The hard work is done..." and then said that Li Dian could go down and rest first.
Li Dian didn't say anything else, and retreated under the leadership of Xiahou Dun's guards.
Xiahoudun stared at Li Dian's back, first thought about Li Dian, and then shook his head. Xiahoudun originally doubted whether Li Dian said something in front of the hussar, but after thinking about it, he thought it was unlikely, so this matter
Did the Cavalry General himself agree?
Could it be that the rumors about General Hussars are all exaggerations? Or maybe he has stayed with Xiliang Wufu for a long time, so he has become simple-minded and muscular?
If Fei Qian is really willing to wait for the so-called "angel" under Yangcheng, Xiahou Dun naturally has no objections and even hopes that Fei Qian will continue to wait until the food and grass are exhausted...
However, Xiahou Dun still felt that this matter was a bit strange. After going back and forth a few times, he wrote a letter explaining the matter in detail, then called the guard and asked him to quickly deliver it to Xu County and hand it over to Xun Yu.
