Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1614 Shocking changes, the end of the hero!five

Cao Cao's sudden excitement made the generals very surprised. What kind of good news can make Cao Cao, a man with deep city life, show such emotions.

Cao Cao didn't care what the generals thought. He was very excited at this moment, and he didn't even want to hide his excitement.

He waved his hand, pressing down on the generals, and said: "Masters, this battle is already won. We should discuss how to reduce casualties, and use the least casualties to incorporate the main force of more than [-] Zhou troops." !"

"Your Majesty, what good news is that?"

Lu Bu asked in a low voice.

It has not been a day or two since he surrendered to Cao Cao. Without absolute strength, he would not turn against Cao Cao. Now he is the number one general under Cao Cao's command.

Moreover, since the battle of Wancheng, Cao Cao lost countless troops and lost many generals. He has also become a general that Cao Cao relies on very much, at least he has gained a lot of trust from Cao Cao.

"Hahaha!"

Cao Cao laughed, pointed at the sand table, and said, "Wu Jun captured Yanjin a day ago and cut off the retreat of Zhou Jun!"

"what?"

"Wu Jun?"

"Where did the generals of the Wu army come from!"

"How could Wu Jun appear on the Guandu battlefield!"

"The Wu army actually captured Yanjin. Yanjin is the base camp of the Zhou army's logistics and supplies, and it is also the retreat of the entire Zhou army!"

"No wonder Your Majesty is so excited. After Yanjin was captured, Zhou's army fell into our immediate encirclement. We don't need to fight to the death at all. As long as we surround them, we can trap them to death!"

The generals peeked at each other. They were a little surprised at first, but soon became excited.

Such a change was something they had not expected.

Moreover, they just obeyed the whole battle layout, except for Guo Jia and Cao Cao, who knew about the people; there were very few generals like Xia Houyuan, who didn't know about it.

It is conceivable that the planning is meticulous.

"Your Majesty!"

Xia Houyuan begged for orders: "The main force of the last general will stick to Jiming Mountain, and will never allow the main force of the Zhou army to escape half of the soldiers from the western front!"

He reacted quickly, and now he understood all the deployment of troops that he couldn't understand before. This is a siege formation, not an offensive formation!
"it is good!"

Cao Cao said in a low voice: "The military order of Gu, from now on, the generals of all ministries should build fortifications according to our military order. If they can't defend themselves, no generals are allowed to attack without authorization, and they will be decisive!"

"The last general takes orders!"

The generals took orders solemnly.

"Okay, all the ministries will return to the camp immediately. Remember, the construction of fortifications must be balanced. The encirclement does not need to be tightened, but only needs to be stable!" Cao Cao said in a low voice: "This battle is not aimed at killing the enemy, but only in siege. We must trap Yuan Benchu ​​to death in Guandu!"

"Yes!"

The generals quickly set up the fortifications of their camps.

"Follow first!"

"exist!"

"When a trapped beast fights, there must be a general who will be mourned. You must stop them and never allow their charge to the camp to succeed!" Cao Cao enjoined.

Nowadays, there are still many generals under his command who are good at fighting, but if it is said that both personal force and battlefield command are top-notch, only Lu Bu is the only one.

Lu Bu, if not for his lack of character, would be the darling of the battlefield, but he may not have a good strategy, and he can't see the big picture too far, but his ability, reaction, and command on the battlefield are all the same in today's world. of the best.

"The last general takes orders!"

"Brother Shoucheng!" Cao Cao narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at veteran Ma Teng.

The Longxi army still has a certain fighting ability, but Ma Xiu is just a stick. He cannot be controlled unless he vacates the mountain. Luoyang was defeated. For the sake of Longxi blood, Ma Teng had to control the overall situation.

To Cao Cao, I can't talk about loyalty, but I don't have much resentment. At the beginning, Jia Xu nearly paralyzed himself and raised him for a long time. At first, he still had a little resentment, but gradually, some things passed. More people in Tenbi can see through.

Now his eldest son, Ma Chao, and adopted son, Pound, are both in the ranks of the Ming army, and they have already cut off relations with him, but he can't watch Ma Xiu die in battle, so he still loves Ma Xiu a little more.

"Your Majesty asks for military orders!" Ma Teng clapped his hands.

"Brother Shoucheng can defend the main battalion!" Cao Cao said with a smile: "The Longxi Army is always a brave army. I still hope that after the main force of the Zhou Army is incorporated this time, the Longxi Army can become a powerful army here and fight for the court in the future. !"

"May I respect the order of the king!"

Ma Teng said with a blank face.

Cao Cao didn't continue to say anything. At this time, Ma Teng surrendered, let alone saying that he couldn't do it, it would be a lie if he could do it.

Many things need to change slowly.

Whether it is Lu Bu or Ma Teng, Cao Cao is not afraid of their rebellion, because there is nowhere for them to go anywhere in the world. Under his command, he finally went to Jiangdong and Beiyan in the name of the imperial court. The ministers of the princes are probably even more humble.

As for Guiming, whether it is Ma Teng or Lu Bu, they all have inextricable grievances and grievances with Muming, which is so easy to figure out.

So as long as they can obey orders, they just need to turn a blind eye to many things.

..............................

Entering the beginning of September, the sweltering heat of summer seems to have subsided somewhat, but the coolness of autumn still hasn't come. There is still a big oven between heaven and earth.

On the Guandu battlefield, the horses roared, and the two armies confronted each other. There was only a gap of ten miles between the two sides. It seemed that the fighting spirit was brilliant, but the troops remained silent.

Yuan Shao was waiting, waiting for the breakthrough on the Eastern Front, but the military order had been issued for a while, but no news came back. Gradually, Yuan Shao felt something was wrong.

"Why hasn't there been news from the Eastern Front yet?"

Yuan Shao was in the camp, his eyes were gloomy, he looked at the generals, and asked coldly.

"There has been no news for three days!"

Zhang He said to Yuan Shao: "I sent out scouts, but they were also beheaded on the way. The main force on the Eastern Front may have some problems!"

"what?"

Yuan Shao stared.

"Besides..." Zhang He's heart sank, with some bad premonition: "The second batch of food and grass that should be sent to the main camp has not arrived yet, and there seems to be no news from Yanjin!"

"What exactly is going on?"

Yuan Shao was very manic, stood up abruptly, his tiger eyes widened.

"Your Majesty, the general has a premonition that something will happen!" Zhang He said, "Maybe..."

"Say!"

"Will General Ju Yi..." He was just guessing, not daring to go too far, but Ju Yi's behavior was really wrong.

"Dare he?"

Yuan Shao slapped the table and shouted angrily: "Gu has not been defeated yet, there are still more than a hundred thousand elites in Gu, he Ju Yi dared to rebel, Gu was the first to behead his head!"

"My lord, something big has happened!"

Xun Zhan rushed in, his usual calmness seemed to be gone for a moment.

"Why are you here?" Yuan Shao looked at Xun Zhan.

Xun Zhan is also one of his advisers, the commander of the logistics is under his control, he is the best candidate to guarantee the logistics, and he is also the person Yuan Shao trusts.

Because Xun Zhan came from a famous family with a good reputation and strong ability. Under Yuan Shao's subordinates, he belonged to the kind of Gen Miao Zhenghong. There is still a difference between the children of the aristocratic family and the children of the humble family.

"Big accident happened in Yanjin!"

Xun Zhan gritted his teeth and cupped his hands to report: "I transported grain southward and was attacked before I entered Yanjin. Fortunately, I escaped the catastrophe by giving up the grain and grass in the dark of night. I was about to rush to Yanjin for help. But Yanjin is already filled with the battle flags of the Jiangdong Wu army!"

"Jiangdong Wu Army?"

"how is this possible!"

Neither Yuan Shao nor Zhang He believed it.

If it was Wei Jun, they might still be skeptical, but how could Wu Jun appear on the Guandu battlefield without any rumors. ,

At this moment, Yuan Shao and Zhang He were not far away, and some chills of fear emerged from their backs.

"Qingzhou!"

Zhang He reacted quickly. He gritted his teeth and said, "It should be Qingzhou. I understand why the Wei army launched an encirclement formation. It turned out to be like this!"

As an experienced general with the ability to command, Zhang He has a very good view of the overall situation. When the commander looks at the overall situation, he seems to be able to see many things.

"Where is Yuan Tan, where is Yuan Tan?"

Yuan Shao was furious.

"Your Majesty, I have received the entrustment from Prime Minister Ju Shou to transport grain south this time, to tell His Majesty that the Second Prince and the First Prince have returned to Ye City!"

Xun Zhan said in a low voice.

Jushou was capable of suppressing them, but he really didn't have the ability to do anything to them. He had to ask Yuan Shao for instructions. Whether to kill or keep them, he had to have a plan.

That's why Xun Zhan ran back and forth, but he didn't expect that when transporting grain across the river, what he got was not support, but massacres. Thousands of civilians, more than a thousand soldiers, and less than three hundred escaped.

There was no hope for going north, and he entered the Guandu camp after rolling and crawling. He did not expect that at this moment, Guandu was still kept in the dark.

"Evil son!"

Yuan Shao's eyes were red and he was full of murderous intent. He knew that the situation in Qingzhou was not good, but he didn't expect Yuan Tan to give up Qingzhou directly, and he didn't even know it.

It's an overall imbalance.

Qingzhou was a gap, and he could directly enter Guandu from the east. If he had known earlier, he would have had defenses already, and he would not have reached this point.

"Where is the matchmaking at the time of discipline?" Yuan Shao asked through gritted teeth.

"My lord, they have already left the camp!"

Zhang He said in a low voice.

Fengji's judges are all counselors, and the two of them are in charge of the current spy news network in Zhou Kingdom, so Yuan Shao trusts them quite a bit.

I really didn't expect to be stabbed by them at this time.

"They should be in Ye City!"

Xun Zhan said: "Prime Minister Ju Shou suspects that someone has inherited the eldest prince and the second prince, and wants to seek power and usurp the throne!"

"Bastard!"

Yuan Shao held back a mouthful of old blood in his heart, and almost vomited it out.

At this moment, he felt a little betrayed.

Megatron Hebei for many years, he really did not expect such an end, in fact, since the defeat of Luoyang, he felt a little alienated.

But he is still willing to believe that his own deterrence is enough to make all the officials trust, but the facts have proved one point, the general situation is over.

"Your Majesty calm down!"

Zhang He said quickly.

"Eastern Front, Eastern Front..." Yuan Shao clutched his chest, "My Shang'er is still on the Eastern Front!"

At this moment, Zhang He was silent.

After knowing that the back route was cut off, he knew that there must be something wrong on the eastern front. Ju Yi may have known the news one step earlier than them, but he did not inform the main camp.

Ju Yi rebelled.

At this moment, the facts had already told Zhang He that there was nothing wrong with his suspicion, but it was too late.

"Cao Mengde, what a game of chess!"

In an instant, Yuan Shao seemed to be ten years old. His energy and spirit had all declined at this moment, and his eyes were a little confused. He muttered to himself: "Gu Zao should have thought of it. Daring to enter Xudu, Wu Jun and Wei Jun have already formed an alliance, Gu Tai underestimated Wu Jun, and Gu Tai underestimated Cao Mengde's heart!"

In this round, the Jiangdong Wu army dared to go deep for one reason, and another reason was that Cao Cao dared to give such a great trust to Sun Ce.

His big heart is astonishing.

"My lord, our army has been trapped in a tight siege. Breaking through as soon as possible is the right strategy to enter the Central Plains. There is little hope. The only way to retreat to the north and return to Hebei is to have a chance to make a comeback!"

Zhang He knelt down, cupped his hands and said.

"A comeback?"

Yuan Shao mocked himself somewhat ironically: "Can Gu make a comeback? After defeating Luoyang, Gu still has a chance. After defeating Jieqiao, Gu still thinks that as long as he enters the Central Plains, he still has a chance, but now..."

He was desperate.

Hebei is also hopeless.

Zhou Guo...

In this chaotic world, everyone in the world is an enemy, and he, Yuan Benchu, is already a prince at the end of his life, and no one will give him a way out.

Then if he can break through and fight back to Hebei, will Liu Bei let him go, and will Cao Cao let him go.

Will not.

th.

Maybe he is willing to hand over his military power, beg for mercy from Cao Cao, and still have a slight chance to get a life imprisonment.

But Yuan Shao I, the hero, would be begging for survival at this time. He would rather die in battle than ask his old enemy for a chance of survival.

In the big camp, there was some silence. Yuan Shao, Xun Zhan, and Zhang Yun didn't know what to say at this moment.

Under their command, there are at least more than [-] soldiers and horses.

But there is really no hope.

Once trapped, there is no chance of fighting at all, and the Wei army will not fight. At this time, the Wei army will strictly defend. As long as their way is blocked, they can only be cut continuously, and then scattered and besieged, and then either Die in battle, or be incorporated.

This is the end.

It was as if he could see the future at a glance.

But Yuan Shao is Yuan Shao after all.

He, Yuan Benchu, rose up in the troubled times. He was a hero of the generation. Even if he was defeated, he would not wait to die. He took a deep breath, recovered his emotions, and said in a low voice, "Zhang Yun!"

"exist!"

"Send all the scouts to find out the situation on the Eastern Front!"

"promise!"

Zhang He took the order.

"Xun Zhan!"

"exist!"

"How much food and grass are there in the camp? You can count how many days we can last, and you can also give Gu a number!" Yuan Shao said: "Whether Gu fights or surrenders, there is always a theory!"

His eyes stared ahead.

What you see is not the sky, it seems to be an old enemy.

"Cao Mengde!"

With his hands on his back, Yuan Shao looked a bit solemn, but his eyes were a bit lonely: "Gu thought that at least I could compete with you, but I never expected that if you lose before fighting, Gu is indeed not as good as you!"

At this moment, until he refused to admit it, he lost to Cao Cao.

This is true.

This battle had already been lost before the fight started, and they were trapped in Cao Cao's encirclement. It was difficult for them to break through, let alone release the market. Cao Cao besieged them for ten days, and they had to run out of food.

But there is no shame in losing.

They are good friends who walked side by side together when they were teenagers, and they have been fighting for half their lives. Since they can win, they can also afford to lose.
