Xiliang Iron Cavalry

Cao Cao said angrily: "Tao Qian killed my family. I will not avenge this revenge. I swear that I will not be a human being. Come here and call all the generals to the Cheqi General's Mansion to discuss matters." He didn't take Xun You's words to heart.

Xun You let out a long sigh, and left. Cao Cao's move made it clear that he did not take the Emperor Han seriously. From his point of view, he can't act privately, otherwise Cao Cao's impression in his heart will drop sharply, just like a rebellious minister.

Cheng Yu hastily followed Xun You's footsteps, and persuaded him softly: "Gongda, my lord was also furious for a moment, and that's why he did such an inappropriate thing. His family members were killed, and it would be like this on anyone."

Xun You said: "Zhongde, please persuade the lord more. The lives of millions of people in Xuzhou are entrusted to you. Don't let the lord do anything against morality."

Cheng Yu sighed: "Don't worry, Gongda, he is also under the lord's command. Don't I know that the lord is angry for a while, and when he calms down, I will try to dissuade him."

Most of Cao's subordinates were members of the Cao family. After hearing the news that Cao Cao's family had been killed in Xuzhou, the generals gathered together called for battle.

However, within ten days, [-] Cao troops were stationed on the border of Xuzhou, with flags unfurled, covering the sky and the sun. Cao Cao, who was in the middle army, was dressed in sackcloth and filial piety, with a solemn expression on his face.

Guo Da's surrender solved Cao Cao's future troubles, and the [-] Yellow Turban troops he sent were also dispersed among the various ministries.

Cao Cao was dressed in filial piety, hemp and filial piety, and went out in person. All the soldiers in the army were like this, and the whole army mourned. The army rushed towards Xuzhou aggressively.

Cao Jun is very poor, and if he is poor, he will be unable to uncover the pot. Yanzhou and Qingzhou are poor places. If the military affairs are quelled, they can recover after three to five years. One hundred thousand troops rushed to Xuzhou, fighting for food and supplies.

"My lord, our army is short of food, so we should focus on the cavalry sneak attack. Before Tao Qian can react, we should attack the city and seize the land to ease the burden of food and grass." Xi Zhicai said.

The faces of the counselors in the tent were not very good-looking, and Xun You couldn't even excuse his illness when the army was marching out.

Cao Cao said coldly: "What's so difficult about this matter? Xuzhou is rich and the people are well-off. Let the army loot it, and the danger of food and grass will naturally be relieved."

Xi Zhicai opened his mouth slightly, and didn't adapt to Cao Cao's words for a while. The world suffered from drought and the people were displaced. Only Yanzhou and Chang'an gathered the refugees and carried out according to Cao Cao's ideas. The prestige that had finally accumulated was completely disintegrated.

"When the army marched out, I swore that all the people in Xuzhou would be buried with their families!" Cao Cao said in a cold tone, leaving no room for negotiation.

Xi Zhicai watched his nose, nose, and mouth, and stood aside with his hands tied, saying no more, because Cao Cao's anger had not subsided.

"My lord, absolutely not!" Xun Yu hurriedly persuaded, regardless of Xi Zhicai's eyes, "The people are the foundation of the army. My lord's actions will definitely attract Xuzhou soldiers to fight against our army. There is not much food and grass. Surrender should be the first choice." host!"

Cao Cao glared at Xun Yu, and snorted coldly: "Military orders are like mountains, how can they be changed every day, you don't need to persuade them any more!"

Cao Cao took a look at Xun Yu, and he felt chills all over his body. He clearly felt the killing intent in Cao Cao's eyes.

Seeing Cao Cao coming with an army of [-], the county magistrate of Qi County opened the city gate and surrendered to Cao Jun. In his opinion, no matter what, Cao Cao was the chariot and cavalry general of the great Han. After taking refuge, maybe he can continue to be the county magistrate.

After leading the army into the city, Cao Cao still had a gloomy face, and ordered: "Before I left the army, I said that my father died in Xuzhou, and the people and officials of Xuzhou should be buried with him. The soldiers of the three armies, massacre the city, and don't leave anyone alive."

After the general received this order, he carried it out in a short period of astonishment. There were many yellow scarves in Cao Cao's army, and they were familiar with doing such things. This indulgent strategy lost his mind, and he killed soldiers who were not from his own camp.

Three days later, Cao Cao set off again with an army of [-]. At this time, Qi County had long been in ruins, with broken walls and ruins. Within a hundred miles, there were no villages and people. Cao's army was like locusts passing through the border.

After Tao Qian heard the news, his face turned pale. It seemed that Cao Cao was determined to destroy the whole of Xuzhou. Unlike Cao Cao, there were very few battles in Xuzhou, and the soldiers lacked training. public.

"It was I who harmed the people of Xuzhou!" Tao Qian cried loudly in the state pastoral mansion regardless of his image.

Mi Zhu cupped his hands and said: "My lord, after the Cao army broke through Qi County, they openly massacred the city, leaving no one alive in the whole city. The subsequent counties will resist tenaciously. The Xuzhou army also has [-] people. Why be afraid of Cao Cao? The counties and counties along the way will definitely resist desperately."

Chen Deng echoed: "What Mi Biejia said is very true. Cao Cao's perverse actions have provoked anger and resentment, and he will not win the hearts of the people. We only need to send generals to guard."

Tao Qian sighed: "I don't know about this. It's just that there has been no war in Xuzhou for a long time, and the peace has been long. The army is not as large as Cao's army."

"My lord, I am willing to lead my troops to fight against Cao Jun!" Cao Bao said loudly.

Tao Qian said happily: "General Cao has such a heart, it is the blessing of the people of Xuzhou. It's just that Cao Cao's fierce generals are like a cloud, fearing that he will not be able to win. General Cao can defend the city and prevent Cao's army from advancing an inch, waiting for his food and grass. All you have to do is retreat.”

Although Cao Bao was a little upset in his heart, he still agreed on the surface.

After Qi County, Cao's army divided into three groups to ravage Xuzhou. On one side, Cao Ren led [-] soldiers, and on the other, Xiahou Dun led [-] soldiers. Cao Cao personally led an army of [-] to kill in the direction of Pengcheng. They didn't stay, the timid officials, when they heard of the arrival of Cao Jun, they fled in anticipation, and people in a hurry could be seen everywhere on the road.

Under such a strategy, Cao Jun received more and more resistance. The city in front of Cao Cao was attacked day and night for three days before the city was declared broken. The county magistrate and all the soldiers fought bloody to death. People, let alone passionate soldiers in the army.

Cao Cao ignored the counselor's advice and slaughtered the city again. Under such stimulation, whenever he came to a city, the soldiers would attack with all their might, and their morale was high.

However, the wise generals and soldiers in the army, most of the yellow scarves were born in the common people, and the worst thing to see is that the common people were massacred. However, Cao Cao's prestige in the army is too high, and the soldiers at the bottom dare not disobey, so they have to hide their thoughts.

The chaos in Xuzhou made Jia Rong a little overwhelmed. Cao Cao of Xuzhou would definitely not be able to attack him, but after this incident, the people in Xuzhou must be in dire straits, and no one survived. This kind of Xuzhou is not what Jia Rong wants to see Of course, there is also the Mi family in Xuzhou. The Mi family has always been the largest supplier of grain and grass to the Xiliang army, so naturally they cannot just sit idly by.

Jia Rong immediately wrote a book, one to Cao Cao and the other to Mi Zhu in Xuzhou.

Cao Bao led the army to guard Pengcheng.

Cao Cao's three-way army passed by with dead bodies strewn all over the field, which was horrible. Xun Yu tried to persuade Cao Cao one after another, but to no avail. At the same time, Cao Cao secretly hated Xun Yu.

Cheng Yu played Zhicai and kept silent about everything in front of him, but judging from the slightly trembling hands of the two, their hearts were not peaceful.

After glancing at Jia Rong's letter, Cao Cao snorted coldly, "General? Huh, as long as this general is willing, he, the general, can do it too."

"My lord, don't do it!" Cheng Yu Qiqi, the Xizhi talent, persuaded, the Xiliang army is not such a soft persimmon like Tao Qian.

Cao Cao said: "You don't need to persuade me. I don't know about this. It's true that Jia Rong wrote a letter asking me not to massacre the people of Xuzhou. I am acting according to the order. How could I obey Jia Rong's order?"

A gleam flashed in Xun Yu's eyes, and he took the opportunity to persuade: "Master, Jia Rong's words are not without reason, the people are the foundation of governing the country..."

"That old thief Tao Qian killed my family. This feud is irreconcilable. When I first joined the army, I made an oath to let the people of Xuzhou be buried with me." Cao Cao interrupted.

The three armies burned, killed and looted all the way, gathered under Pengcheng, learned of Cao Jun's actions, and the people along the way fled one after another. Originally, this kind of battle had nothing to do with the people. Just imagine, a city without people can only be an empty city. What's the use of Cao Cao's empty city? Cao Bao led an army of 3, which was difficult to resist. He retreated all the way to Pengcheng.

Cao's army was 2. Under the fierce resistance along the way, [-] soldiers were lost. In order to make a quick decision, wherever they went, the army would attack the city day and night, rest for a while, and set off again. There is a cavalry, which is enough to trouble Cao Jun's advance, but the Central Plains has always lacked horses, and the soldiers are not good at riding. No prince has the courage to equip a large number of cavalry.

The walls of Pengcheng City are thick, the moat is wide, and there are many soldiers on the city. It is obvious that they are fully prepared.

With the support of the soldiers, Tao Qian appeared tremblingly on the city. Looking at the densely packed Cao Jun outside the city, who could not see the edge at a glance, he felt sad. Was Xuzhou, which had been governed for many years, lost because of the greed of his generals?Tao Qian is really unwilling to see the innocent people in Xuzhou suffer. Even if he can resist Cao Jun this time, so what?

"Let the envoy go to Cao Jun's camp. If Cao Jun can spare the people of Xuzhou, I am willing to bind myself out of the city and surrender."

"My lord!" Xuzhou generals heard the words and bowed in unison. They are hot-blooded men in the army. Seeing the people displaced under Cao Jun's cavalry, their chests were already filled with anger. The moment Cao Jun appeared under Pengcheng, they had already done Well, the city is in the people's decision.

"My lord, don't do it. Cao Cao is cruel and will definitely kill the people of Xuzhou. Xuzhou can't live without a lord." Chen Deng persuaded.

"Master Chen's words are right. Cao's army only has 8 people, and there are [-] troops in the city. The law of war says that if ten people encircle them, Cao's army has actually committed a big taboo." Mi Zhu also persuaded.

The soldiers in the city were all moved when they heard Tao Qian's words. Lord Zhou Mu is willing to die for all the people. Such an official is worthy of their lives. The soldiers looked at Cao Jun again with a trace of fear in their eyes. , a little more fighting spirit.

The second update arrives, seeking all kinds of support!
