My father is Yuan Shu?But I want to be a Cao thief

Chapter 390 Breaking the enemy, layout
Jian'an six years,

Summer is mid-June.

Fu County, in the general mansion.

On this day, Cao Cao arrived with his own soldiers.

At the first place, Cao Cao looked at Xia Houyuan and said in a deep voice, "Miaocai, you have contributed a lot to this series of victories. You have worked hard!"

"These are what the general should do!"

Xia Houyuan immediately responded with clasped fists, with a serious expression on his face.

"However, my lord, there are nearly [-] troops in Liu Zhang's Chuan Shu army, so don't take it lightly. Although our soldiers and horses are all elite, the number is limited, including Liu Zhang's surrendered army, which is no more than [-]!"

"According to my estimation, the reinforcements sent by Liu Zhang will arrive at the south bank of Fu County in a few days." Xia Houyuan showed a bit of solemn expression again. He had taken Fu County as quickly as possible, and the next battle was tough.

"Hehe, Zhang Ren and Wu Yi are those trash?" Cao Cao sneered, disapproving, he couldn't beat Chu Feng, and he couldn't beat this bunch of trash?After all, there has been almost no war in Yizhou for so many years.
The combat effectiveness of this kind of soldiers and horses is not much different from that of county soldiers.

"Ten thousand people are enough to deal with this group of wastes. What's more, Qingzhou soldiers are coming quickly, and in half a month at most, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses will come to the city!" Cao Cao said proudly.

"My lord, the last general is willing to be the vanguard!"

Seeing that Cao Cao was extremely confident, Xia Houyuan immediately clasped his fists and asked for a fight. Everyone on the western front was counting on him!
"Report~, my lord, Liu Zhang's reinforcements crossed [-] miles to the north of Mianzhu, and they will reach the south bank of Fushui in at most three days. The leading generals are Zhang Ren, Wu Yi and others."

Hearing the sound, Cao Cao waved his hands and said, "Explore again!"

As the scout retreated, Cao Cao looked at the crowd and said, "Let's talk about how to defeat the enemy and take Yizhou? I'm worried that there will be many dreams in the night, and news has been sent back from inside Yizhou that someone has proposed to invite the Chu army to take control of Yizhou!" "

Everyone looked at each other, a little bewildered.

When Xun You and Guo Jia, who came with the army, looked at each other, Guo Jia immediately nodded and said, "My lord, this battle must be resolved quickly. Once it gets into a stalemate, it will definitely be bad for my lord."

"Currently the Chu army has completed the contraction of the defense line, and troops and horses can be mobilized at any time. Once Liu Zhang invites the Chu army to take over Yizhou, all our efforts will be in vain and even die in Yizhou!"

"How to break the game quickly?" Cao Cao asked.

"My lord, Liu Zhang is useless and useless. He doesn't know how to be talented. Many civil and military personnel under his command are quite critical, and the lord is following an order to seek thieves. Both public and private, Liu Zhang's civil and military personnel have the heart to generalize."

"In this battle, the quick victory lies in Liu Zhang's civil and military forces. As the saying goes, the lord of Liushui has an iron family. As long as the lord gives up part of the benefits to the local family in Yizhou, Yizhou is not difficult to win."

Guo Jia summarized in a more general way,
Cao Cao raised his eyebrows, this Guo Fengxiao is getting more and more excessive, he likes to talk half-spoken, so he immediately looked at Xun You.

Xun You also smiled gently, and said, "My lord, since ancient times, the ruler chooses his ministers, and the ministers also choose his ruler. My lord, you might as well think about it, what are the options before the Yizhou civil and military?"

"Me and Liu Zhang?" Cao Cao asked with a frown.

"Hehe, how can Liu Zhang be compared with the lord?" Xun You shook his head and chuckled.

"You mean Chu Feng?" Cao Cao frowned.

"Exactly, the reason why most of the civil and military forces in Yizhou have not turned to the lord is simply because the battle situation has not yet been concluded, and they are afraid that the Chu army will join in after voting for the lord!"

Xun You went straight to the point and said every word.

Hearing this, Cao Cao couldn't help nodding. Indeed, most people in Yizhou are still waiting and watching. After all, the Chu army may be stronger in comparison, and it may be more beneficial to rely on Chu Feng!

Seeing that Cao Cao understood, Xun You explained again: "Master, Yizhou's civil and military weaknesses are here, so it is natural to stab them at their weaknesses. First, use power to suppress people, emphasizing that the Lord represents the emperor and the royal family. !"

"Secondly, let Xizuo spread rumors, saying that the Chu army was defeated in the Central Plains, with tens of thousands of troops lost, retreating to Nanyang, Hefei and other places, and losing the entire Central Plains, so that these people have no hope."

"Thirdly, let Xiao Zuo emphasize what Chu Feng did to other families under his rule, and he must exaggerate all kinds of evil, so that these families will be timid and fall to the lord's side!"

"With these three points, most of the civil and military forces in Yizhou will secretly communicate with the lord and turn to the lord. In this way, half of Yizhou will be in hand!" Xun You stroked his beard with some self-confidence.

"Xun You, Xun You, you understand human nature clearly!" Cao Cao laughed, this Xun You was indeed a great talent, and with just a few words, all the worries of Yizhou's civil and military forces were emptied.

In this way, these people will inevitably fall to themselves.

"My lord, Miao Zan, I'm just telling the truth!" Xun You said gently, without arguing or grabbing.

"Come here, draw up an edict immediately, declare it to the world, and swear your sovereignty. In addition, Pegasus informs the detailed work in Chengdu, and asks them to find a way for me to spread the things just decided!"

Cao Cao acted resolutely, and immediately waved his sleeves and said.

"No!" Someone on the side responded.

"My lord, what Gongda said just now can defeat civil and martial arts, and Jia has another plan to defeat Chengdu." Seeing Cao Cao's smile, Guo Jia immediately said the same thing.

"Feng Xiao, come quickly!" Cao Cao was eager.

"My lord, there are still Mianzhu and Luoxian after Fu County. According to scouts, Liu Zhang has sent troops to Mianzhu. Of course, it is only a matter of time before these small towns are captured."

"The only thing to pay attention to is Chengdu!"

"Chengdu is the seat of Yizhou's prefectural government. There are several years of food surplus in the city, and the walls of Chengdu are as high as Chang'an, Luoyang and other capitals. It is even more difficult to attack Chengdu!"

"If Liu Zhang is allowed to stick to it, I'm afraid it will be difficult to win for several years." Guo Jia briefly explained the problem.

"What do you think?" Cao Cao asked, since Guo Jia said it, obviously there is a way!
"Massacre the city!" Guo Jiayu said endlessly in surprise.

"Massacre?" Cao Cao frowned slightly: "Is massacre useful?"

"Naturally, Liu Zhang is cowardly and cowardly like a mouse, but he is also worried about the people's livelihood. The lord will use both soft and hard methods, coupled with the persuasion of the city's civil and military forces. As long as the people are used as a threat, Liu Zhang will definitely surrender to the city and surrender!"

The corners of Guo Jia's mouth curled up, and he said with a light smile.

Xun You bowed his head silently and didn't say much. He was naturally aware of this kind of plot. The massacre of the city frightened Liu Zhang, and with Liu Zhang's cowardly character, he might not be able to hold back.

The key is that his identity cannot be revealed.
Guo Jia is free, a poor boy, and his Xun family is a big family, and he is Cao Cao's right-hand man. If his Xun family remonstrates like this, even if Cao Cao ascends the throne and proclaims himself emperor in the future, his Xun family will have no good fruit.
"Liu Zhang is worried about people's livelihood? How did you know that?" Cao Cao raised his eyebrows and asked. This Liu Zhang's political achievements can only be regarded as mediocre, and he is not very considerate of the people.

"My lord, according to the eyeliner's report, earlier someone suggested that Liu Zhang strengthen the walls and clear the land, expel the people, and destroy the fields, but Liu Zhang refused because he cared about the people. This is enough to explain everything!"

"What's more, Liu Zhang failed to attack Zhang Lu many times in the early years, and one of them was because he was worried that too many people would be killed or injured!" Guo Jia explained with a chuckle, but he used all the information.

"I see!"

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes, he is good at slaughtering cities!
From the current point of view, dealing with Liu Zhang seems to be more effective than attacking the city all the time, and massacring the city can deter all places, so that people dare not rebel!

"Haha, with Fengxiao Gongda at my side, why should I worry about not taking Yizhou or failing in my great cause?" Cao Cao shouted heartily, a little excited that Yizhou would soon fall into his hands, and his army might reach 30 by then.

Even Chu Feng may not be his opponent.

"My lord praises me, but if Yizhou is won, my lord will no longer be afraid of Chu Feng!" Guo Jia chuckled, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised!

"What do you mean by the military commander's words?" Xia Houyuan was a little anxious. He had long wanted to avenge Xiahou Dun in a decisive battle with the Chu army, so he asked immediately.

"General Xiahou knows that the strongest of the Chu army is not the Central Army, nor the Black Banner Army, but the Yangtze River Boat Division. It is this boat division that allows the Chu Army to have a natural barrier that cannot be banned!"

"Ships from the south and horses from the north. If the north wants to go south, the most difficult thing to overcome is the number of boats. But if you can take Yizhou, you can take Jingzhou from Yubu Guandong with infantry and win the battle with infantry."

"Infantry, our Qingzhou soldiers are famous all over the world. Unless Chu Feng calls the Central Army, they will have nothing to fear. And the Jingzhou family has many complaints. If they provoke them, they may be able to take Jingzhou."

"Jingzhou is also located in the upper reaches of Yangzhou, and it can go downstream. My lord only needs to develop a boat master for three to five years, and it will be easy to sweep Chu Feng." Guo Jia said confidently, with the corners of his mouth curled up.

Yizhou is too important to Cao Cao,

This strategic offensive point alone is precious!

After hearing Guo Jia's words, Xia Houyuan also looked excited. This feeling is good. He led the infantry from Yubu Pass to the east, and his boss led people from the north to Nanyang or Jiujiang. Why worry about not destroying Chu Feng?

Cao Cao was also grinning from ear to ear. Guo Jia’s cake painting is big and round. The key is that there is hope. I just hope everything goes well. Leaving aside whether Jingzhou can be defeated for the time being,

As long as Yizhou can be defeated, Cao Cao will not be afraid of the Chu army at all.

"My lord, how can we defeat the invading soldiers and horses?" Xu Huang raised his eyebrows and asked.

After the words came out, Guo Jia and Xunyou looked at each other, and then said in unison: "At the halfway point, hit them!"

"It took less than half an hour for my lord to arrive in Fu County, so the enemy naturally didn't know about it, and General Xiahou only had thousands of troops under his command. Naturally, the enemy thought that General Xiahou would be helpless if he crossed the river a little bit!"

"Therefore, show the enemy's weakness, detect when the enemy is crossing the river, and attack fiercely, the enemy will definitely be defeated!" Guo Jia continued.

"My lord, maybe a few generals who were killed in the dark, let them attack from behind, cooperate with the inside and outside, and defeat this army in one fell swoop, so as to approach Mianzhu and even Luo County!"

Xun You added.

They knew that money could turn ghosts around, especially after Cao Jun used power to overwhelm others, naturally many voted for Cao Jun, and with a little trickery, tens of thousands of people would be no problem!
"According to what the two military advisers said!" Cao Cao replied with a smile.

Immediately, Cao Cao sent people to announce to the world, while letting Xizuo spread rumors, and at the same time colluded with those generals. In the whole of Yizhou, it was obvious that someone wanted to dedicate such a big cake to those who would share more cakes with him.

----

In a blink of an eye, a few days later.

In the early morning, after a group of people decided that the whole army would cross the river ten miles away from Fu County, Zhang Ren immediately had people collect boats and connect them to form a pontoon bridge. The whole army also crossed the river quickly.

In any case, there are 4 people, and Xiahouyuan's headquarters has thousands of troops. The gap is almost ten times, which can be completely crushed, and the situation is urgent. They need to kill Xiahouyuan as soon as possible!

Now, late at night,
On the bank of Fushui, Zhang Ren stood with his sword in his hand, constantly urging soldiers and horses to cross the river, but looking at the dark night, his heart throbbed inexplicably, always feeling that something bad was about to happen.

But fortunately, more and more soldiers and horses are gathering on the shore, at least three to four thousand people. Even if Cao Jun comes here at this time, they will be able to fight!

Thinking about this, he was somewhat relieved.

But at this moment, there was a sound from far away on the river bank, and then countless torches were lit, as if Cao Jun was ambushing at this time, Cao Jun rushed here to kill.

Among them, Xu Huang and Xia Houyuan each led a troop.

Seeing this, Zhang Ren frowned, and immediately wanted to stabilize the army's morale and let people fight bloody, but both Xu Huang and Xia Houyuan are strong generals, and the troops under his command are even the elite of the Qingzhou army, which is by no means comparable to Liu Zhang's soldiers and horses.
Almost a face-to-face meeting killed Liu Zhang's soldiers and horses, and more and more people died tragically. The smell of blood rose to the sky, accompanied by screams and broken limbs, so that countless people fled.

No matter how Zhang Ren shouted, those people couldn't help but feel fear. After all, Liu Zhang's army was famous for fighting five scumbags, and even Zhang Lu couldn't beat them.

Before Liu Bei entered Yizhou, he had almost never won, but when he entered Yizhou, he won more with less, and Liu Zhang ran away with his head in his arms. It can be seen how rubbish Liu Zhang's army is in combat.
It is even said that when Kaesong surrendered, there were still 3 fine armors in Chengdu, while Liu Bei outside the city did not necessarily have [-].

Without the baptism of war, how could they be the opponents of these veterans of hundreds of battles? It was completely a dimensionality reduction attack, or a half-way attack. Liu Zhang's army was almost defeated in one battle, and had no ability to resist at all.

"Don't run away, fight to the death!"

Zhang Ren's voice was hoarse, but no matter how he shouted, he couldn't stop these soulless soldiers.

During the critical scramble, there are countless people who fell into the water!
"Hey, I'll kill this thief!" Xia Houyuan rode his horse and grinned excitedly when he saw that Zhang Ren was still desperately commanding the army. He hadn't killed an enemy general for a long time.

"Thief general, take your life!"

Saying that, Xia Houyuan went to kill him with a gun.

Seeing this, Zhang Ren didn't have the time to continue commanding. He immediately roared and turned around to fight. He was the number one general in Sichuan and Shu, and he was not afraid at all.

However, when they were fighting, Xu Huang had already driven all Liu Zhang's troops who had crossed the river into Hanoi, and then crossed the river to pursue them. It was Wu Yi who surrendered. He led his troops to attack the other two generals immediately.

For a moment, the entire Liu Zhang army was in chaos.
Bingyong couldn't tell whether it was an enemy or a friend, and they were completely defeated.

Xu Huang took the lead, killed one of the generals, and then began to be captured. As for Xia Houyuan, he fought Zhang Ren for a long time, and finally Cao Cao sent people to capture Zhang Ren together.

Because of Zhang Ren's superb martial arts skills, Cao Cao couldn't bear to kill him, so he was temporarily detained.

In the first battle, as expected, Cao Jun won, a big victory!
