Chapter 774: Who dares to disobey the prime minister's words

Chapter 774: Who dares to disobey the Prime Minister’s words?

Therefore, the people along the way looked at the dust and worshiped the road, praising Cao Cao's holy virtues and doing no harm to the people. When officers and soldiers passed by the wheat field, they all dismounted and held the wheat with their hands, passing it to each other, fearing that

Mai fell on the road.

On this day, Cao Cao was walking in the wheat, and suddenly a bird frightened him. Cao Cao's horse was frightened and jumped into the wheat, trampling down countless wheat. Cao Cao immediately called Zhang Yu, the chief of the marching army, to prepare a plan for himself.

The crime of trampling wheat.

Zhang Yu, the chief clerk, said: "The Prime Minister's words and orders are orders, who dares to disobey them!"

Cao Cao said: "I make my own laws, and I break them myself. Why should I subjugate the crowd?" Then he pulled out the Heavenly Sword he carried with him and wanted to kill himself in front of everyone to carry out the laws he had made. When the civil and military officials saw it, they hurried to save him.

Of.

Guo Jia stepped forward and said: "The meaning of the ancient Spring and Autumn Annals: If the law is not respected, how can the prime minister, president, and generals harm themselves?"

Cao Cao said: "Since the Spring and Autumn Annals has the meaning of 'the law is not imposed on respect', I have temporarily forgotten it." He cut his own hair with a sword, threw it on the ground and said: "The right to cut hair is to replace the head of the ear!" All the troops were horrified.

The people along the road will not be disturbed by autumn.

At this time, Zhang Xiu had already heard that Cao Cao was bringing troops again, so he sent a letter to Liu Biao urgently, so that he could respond later. He then sent Lei Xu, and the two generals Zhang Xian went out of the city to meet the enemy, and ordered his new counselor Xu Shu to defend the city. The two armies rejected each other.

, the formation was lined up, Zhang Xiu came out, pointed at Cao Cao and scolded him. Cao Cao was furious and ordered Xu Huang to come out. Zhang Xiu ordered his general Zhang Xian to come out to meet the enemy. They only fought for three rounds. Xu Huang killed Zhang Xian before he was on horseback, and Zhang Xiu's army was strong.

After defeat, Cao Cao led his troops to drive Zhang Xiu to Nanyang City.

Zhang Xiu was defeated in the city and couldn't leave. Cao Cao besieged the city and attacked. Drums were beating constantly on the city, and cannons, rocks, gold juice and crossbows were fired below. The trenches were wide and the water was particularly deep. When there was an emergency approaching the city, Cao Cao ordered his sergeants to transport earth and fill the trenches.

He also used homespun bags mixed with firewood and straw handles to make stools and ladders at the edge of the city. He also set up cloud ladders to peer into the city. Cao Cao rode around the city and watched. For three days, he ordered the sergeants to pile firewood at the corner of the west gate.

Gather the soldiers and go up to the city.

Zhang Xiu didn't know why Cao Cao acted like this, so he asked, "What does Cao Cao mean by this?"

Xu Shu replied: "I saw Cao Cao on the city and walked around the city for three days. He saw two antlers of different colors, old and new, on the southeast corner of the city. Most of them were rotten. He intended to make it easier to enter the city here, but it was useless to go to the northwest to accumulate.

Cao Cao, use the deceit to gain momentum, and use all the soldiers in our city to guard the northwest. Tonight, the darkness will invade the southeast corner."

Zhang Xiu asked, "If this is the case, what can I do?"

Xu Shu laughed and said: "This is very easy. During the day, all the people are ordered to wear military uniforms and guard the northwest. The strong soldiers are fed and lightly clothed and returned to the southeast buildings. At night, the people are only taught to go to the northwest corner to shout and let him pick them off.

When the drum sounds in the city, an ambush of troops rises up. I can be as strong as a hundred, and I can defeat Cao Cao!" Zhang Xiu used Xu Shu as a stratagem, and taught the people to wear military uniforms and shout on the city.

On the ladder, I saw only men and horses in the northwest. He reported them to the central army. When Cao Cao heard this, he was overjoyed and said: "It's my plan!"

The next day, Cao Cao kept all his elite soldiers in his tent and prepared tools for robbing the city with spades and excavators. During the day, he only used his troops to attack the northwest corner. There was a constant shouting in the city outside the city. At the second watch, he led his elite soldiers to the southeast corner at night.

, went through the ditch, chopped off the antlers, and the soldiers all went to the city, but there was no movement in the city.

At this time, loud shouts were heard in the northwest corner, and torches were missing in the southeast. Cao Cao's army rushed in, and two ambushes came out. Cao's soldiers retreated in a hurry. Behind him, Zhang Xiu personally urged horses, danced and shot.

Then we saw that the two southeast gates were opened together, and the elite troops stood out. Cao Jun was defeated and retreated in a hurry. The trenches outside the city were filled. By the fifth watch, Cao Jun was defeated for dozens of miles. Zhang Xiu gathered his troops and horses into the city and captured all the chariots, horses and baggage.

There were so many that Cao Cao defeated the army and lost more than 50,000 troops. Lu Qian and Yu Jin were all wounded.

Seeing that Cao Cao was defeated, Xu Shu hurriedly sent a letter to Liu Biao to teach Liu Biao how to cut off Cao Cao's retreat. Liu Biao got the letter and wanted to raise troops. At this moment, someone came to report: "Sun Ce's troops have been stationed at Hukou, so he did not dare to send troops."

Kuai Liang said: "Sun Ce's troops have garrisoned at the mouth of the lake. This is Cao Cao's plan, so he is using his troops to suspect him. Cao Cao has suffered a new defeat recently. If he does not take advantage of the situation to destroy him, there will be endless troubles. If Ming Gong takes advantage of his troops to win, Cao Cao can defeat him."

also."

Liu Bei ordered Cai Mao and Zhang Yun to lead their troops to guard the passes. He led his general Lu Gong to advance and pacify the masses to cut off Cao Cao's retreat. He also ordered Zhang Xiu to meet with Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu heard that Liu Bian had raised troops and led troops with Xu Shu to attack Cao Cao.

Cao Cao's army marched slowly to Xiangcheng, and when they arrived at Huishui, Cao Cao burst into tears on his horse. The generals asked him why, and Cao Cao said, "I think that my Dianwei was killed here last year, and I can't help but cry!"

All shed tears.

Cao Cao ordered troops to be stationed at this point, to hang sacrifices to the souls of the dead, to slaughter cattle and horses on the Miao River, and to offer sacrifices to Dian Wei. Cao Cao worshiped Dian Wei again, cried loudly and passed out on the ground, and everyone helped him up. All the military schools, big and small, shed tears, and sacrificed to Cao An again.

Cao Min sacrificed his eldest son Cao Ang last, and then sacrificed the "Jueying" BMW. The second sacrifice was the sergeant here. After the memorial ceremony was completed, the sergeants in the camp were crying non-stop, so you can linger if you can't bear it.

Suddenly Xun Yu sent someone to report: "Liu Biao will help Zhang Xiu and set up troops to pacify the people and prevent their return!"

Cao Cao replied to Xun Yu's letter: "Although I have traveled several miles in a day, I know that thieves are coming to chase me. My current strategy has been decided. If I reach Anzhong, I will defeat Zhang Xiu. Liu Biao's army, don't worry.

." He led the army to the border of Anzhong.

Liu Biao's army was already guarding the strategic point, and Zhang Xiu then led his troops to come. Cao Cao ordered his troops to dig out the dangerous road at night, and secretly ambush the unexpected troops. When the sky was dimming, Liu Biao and Zhang Jun's army met up. When they saw that Cao Cao's soldiers were few, they suspected that Cao Cao had escaped, so both armies moved in.

Hit it on a dangerous road.

Cao Cao sent out his surprise troops to defeat Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu's troops. Cao Cao was able to escape from Anzhong Pass and set up camp outside the pass. Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu met with their thieves. Liu Biao said: "How could I have been tricked by Cao Cao!"

Zhang Xiudao: "Rong will try again."

Xun Yu found out that Yuan Shao wanted to invade Xudu, so he hurriedly sent a letter to Cao Cao. The letter said: "Recent people came from Jizhou to report that Xu You and Yuan Shao said: Now the general has sufficient food and a strong army. Cao Cao has not returned from the southern expedition, so it is better to go early."

It is the best policy to take advantage of the opportunity to attack Xudu, welcome the emperor, and command the sea. If you don't take advantage of the opportunity, you will be captured by him in the end. Although it is useless to regret it. Yuan Shao heard this, but hesitated, and asked the prime minister to return the capital and make a separate area.

Department." Cao Cao was flustered after receiving the letter, and immediately organized his troops and set off.

After learning that Cao Cao had led his army back to the north, Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao launched an army to pursue them, but Xu Shu repeatedly blocked them. Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao did not listen to Xu Shu's words and led their troops to pursue Cao Cao. As a result, they were ambushed by an ambush set by Cao Cao. They were defeated.

He led the defeated troops back, and met Xu Shu on the way. Xu Shu advocated regrouping the defeated troops and pursuing Cao Cao again. Liu Biao did not believe Xu Shu's words, so he was willing to move his subordinates lightly. Zhang Xiu listened to Xu Shu's words, reorganized his troops, and led his army to pursue Cao Cao's rear army.

As expected, Cao Cao's rear army was defeated and fled. Zhang Xiu's army won a small victory. Zhang Xiu was convinced by Xu Shu.

When Liu Biao saw that Zhang Xiu had indeed won the battle, Xu Shu was also impressed. After Xu Shu's talk, the two formed an offensive and defensive alliance. Zhang Xiu occupied Wancheng and stationed troops in Xiangcheng to guard against Cao Cao's invasion.
