Xiang Ji, who was guarding Cangtingjin, never expected that history would undergo such a big change.
You know, in history, although Wen Chou was brave and defeated the combination of Zhang Liao and Xu Huang with one versus two, no general of Cao's army was killed.
Unexpectedly, the changes brought about by myself now.
That fat man? That fat man who loved to chop my white dragon, died like this?
Is it because his arm was cut off by me that his strength dropped drastically?
Although Xiang Ji was full of doubts about this, it could not change the fact that Xu Chu had been killed in battle.
Looking at Guo Jia with a sad face, Xiang Ji couldn't help but feel sad for Cao Cao.
Unlucky guy.
If it hadn't been for my appearance, I'm afraid you would have been Prime Minister Cao by now, right?
But no matter what, they are now my allies after all.
To fight against Yuan Shao, Xiang Ji could not do without Cao Cao's help.
"Mr. Fengxiao, if that's the case, then the lonely king should go to Yanjin to meet Wen Chou for a while."
Come to think of it, after I kill Wen Chou, will history return to normal?
At the very least, the course of the Battle of Guandu does not seem to have changed much.
With a rough plan in mind, Xiang Ji did not hesitate, gave some instructions to the Canglong Cavalry, and then galloped towards Yanjin on his own horse.
Yes, Xiang Ji does not intend to bring the Canglong Cavalry with him.
Previously, because we didn't know much about Cao Cao, bringing the Canglong Cavalry could also play a protective role.
But now, Cao Cao's sincerity towards the alliance is absolutely complete.
Moreover, after Xu Huang betrayed Man Chong, the hidden danger of opposition to the alliance within Cao's army had been eliminated, and there was no need for Xiang Ji to bring along the Canglong Cavalry.
In the final analysis, the two families are just allies. Even if they get married, they are still independent forces.
Xiang Ji can help Cao Cao, but if he always hurts Canglongqi by helping Cao Cao, it's not worth it.
After all, who knows if Cao Cao would immediately turn against Yuan Shao if he killed him one day.
Xiang Ji, who broke away from the large army, relied on Bailong's horse speed to reach Yanjin in less than two days.
"His Royal Highness the King of Chu."
When Xiang Ji came to Yanjin, he met the commander Mao Jie who was temporarily commanding Cao's army.
Seeing this man, Xiang Ji had to sigh, Cao Cao was really miserable.
He had killed several generals under his command, and now he was fighting against Yuan Shao of Hebei Province, with a lot of casualties. It was obvious that there was no one available anymore.
Even someone like Mao Jie came out to lead the army alone?
Xiang Ji suddenly felt that Cao Cao might not be able to defeat Yuan Shao like in history.
After all, the strength gap between the two sides is too huge.
Historically, Cao Cao was able to surprise Wuchao because of his own strength.
Otherwise, you can't stop the attack of Yuan Shao's army at all, so why use a surprise attack? You will be flattened by a strong attack. Even if you attack by surprise, what's the use?
It seems that after this incident is over, I will go back to Jia Xu to discuss countermeasures.
Yes, Xiang Ji's plan was to return to Chu after killing Wen Chou.
After all, he is just an ally, not Cao Cao's thug.
Being able to help him kill Yuan Shao's two generals is already interesting enough.
This can be regarded as compensation for Cao Cao not having Xuzhou and not getting Guan Laoer.
Otherwise, I am afraid that Cao Cao will not be able to defend the Yellow River crossing.
Xiang Ji did not want to start a full-scale war with Yuan Shao so soon.
You know, the Chu State at this time had just experienced a war, and what it needed most now was time to cultivate.
The current confrontation situation is the most perfect for Xiang Ji.
In history, Xiang Ji remembers that the Battle of Guandu lasted about a year.
At this time, Xiang Ji did not expect Cao Cao to confront Yuan Shao for a year. As long as he could hold out for the first half of the year and give Chu a time to recover, Xiang Ji would have the confidence to fight Yuan Shao.
What kind of army of 700,000? Without a decent general to lead it, it’s just a bunch of chickens and dogs.
Coupled with Yuan Shao's superb command, as long as Xiang Yu can buy time to restore the national strength, what if he is facing Yuan Shao one-on-one?
"Tell the soldiers to get ready and say they will go into battle with me."
After running around all day, Xiang Ji said he needed to take a rest, right?
Shu said, Hebei Army Yanjin camp.
"Mao Jie, go and call the formation first. When Na Wen Chou goes out to fight, the lonely king will take him over."
Looking at the closed Hebei Army camp opposite, Xiang Ji didn't want to rush forward to call for formation.
After all, people are like the shadow of famous trees. Now that their names are announced, not many people who are not crazy will dare to confront the enemy.
What's more, this Wen Chou had been abused by Xiang Ji in Qingzhou before. If he heard Xiang Ji call for battle, he would not dare to leave.
Xiang Ji didn't want to make the trip by himself in the end, only to see the scenery of the Hebei Army camp and the battle-free sign hanging above the camp head.
"I am Mao Jie, the guerrilla general and a traitor from Hebei. How dare you fight!"
After receiving Xiang Ji's signal, Mao Jie did not hesitate to rush forward and shouted directly at the Hebei Army camp.
Are you kidding me, with the most powerful general in the world behind me, what the hell am I, Mao Jie, afraid of?
Don't mention some unknown people, even if Wen Chou comes, I won't be afraid!
"What's going on outside the camp? Why is it so noisy?"
Wen Chou, who was in the camp, naturally didn't know what was going on outside. When he heard the noise, he immediately asked around.
"I report to Commander Wen that it is Mao Jie of Cao's army who has come to call for battle, saying he wants to avenge Xu Chu."
???
Who is this Mao Jie? How dare he say that he wants to avenge Xu Chu?
When Wen Chou heard this, he was stunned.
Could it be that this is another fierce man who has never been born in the world? Otherwise, why would you have the courage to seek revenge on me?
"Who among you is going to help me capture it?"
Not sure about Mao Jie's level, Wen Chou didn't dare to go into battle rashly.
He is a fierce man like Xiang Ji. Wouldn't he be a tragedy?
It was actually because Mao Jie's name was so obscure that no one in the Hebei Army recognized him.
"Wen Shuai, the young general is willing to go."
When marching and fighting, there is never a shortage of young people, there are always people who want to prove themselves.
When Wen Chou saw someone taking the initiative to ask for a fight, Wen Chou agreed.
Just give me a test to find out the depth of the hair.
After the young general patted his horse and left, Wen Chou also began to put on his armor and prepare to go have a look.
But just when he finished putting on his armor, the messenger came again.
"Wen Shuai! General Qu was killed by that Mao Jie in one round!"
Damn it! What a fierce man! No wonder you dare to bring trouble on me.
When Wen Chou heard this, he was immediately shocked. Could it be that this fierce man really appeared out of nowhere?
Just when Wen Chou was in shock and doubt, Xu Huang came from the rear.
"Shuai Wen, is it appropriate to have something happen in front of the camp? Could it be that Cao Jun is coming?"
