The Yuan Family of the Three Kingdoms I call the shots

Chapter 11

There was a very dazzling term popular in modern society, called: Butterfly Effect.

In a more scientific way, it means that in a dynamical system, small changes in the initial conditions can drive long-term huge chain reactions in the entire system.

In the words of ordinary people, the world is unpredictable, and the world is really wonderful.

The world is indeed a wonderful thing, and no one can tell what will happen to it in the next second. Just like Yuan Shang, although he is alone and has limited strength, under the instigation of his little butterfly wings, The details of the Battle of Guandu have changed bit by bit.

It's as if Yuan Shao dispatched Zhang Jaw and Gao Lan as vanguards to fully support Wuchao, which is completely different from the historical situation.

In history, Yuan Shao sent Zhang Jai and Gao Lan to storm Cao Cao's camp, and sent Jiang Qi to reinforce Wu Chao. He Gao Lan turned to Cao Cao because of Guo Tu's frame.

You can't have both, Yuan Shao lost his wife and lost his army.

But the situation is different now. After Yuan Shao learned that Yuan Shang was in the dangerous situation of Wuchao, he naturally felt the heart of protecting the calf. He shook off his usual hesitant and decadent appearance, and suddenly gave a decisive order: fully support Wuchao! Big tree The glorious image of brilliance and martial arts that is not seen in daily life brought a bad taste to Guo Tu.

Yuan Shao may be a flawed and incompetent monarch, but it is undeniable that he is definitely a good father who is responsible for his son.

The story was divided into two parts, not to mention that Yuan Shao sent troops to reinforce Wuchao, but also Zhang Liao, Xu Chu was concerned about Cao Cao's comfort, and the two generals led the tiger and leopard cavalry forward to turn back and rush towards the rear army led by Cao Cao.

After less than twenty miles of raiding, the second general finally reunited with Cao Jun's rear division. The strange thing is that Cao Jun's rear division was not blocked by Yuan Jun's ambush, but was advancing smoothly towards Wuchao.

The generals who commanded the rear army's infantry were Xu Huang and Yu Jin, two other well-known generals of Cao Wei.

Xu Huang's appearance is quite good, with three long beards and majestic majesty, sitting on a good Huali horse, with a big ax in his hand, leading the rear army to take the lead, quite a bit of heroic spirit.

Seeing Zhang Liao and Xu Chu rushing back with their troops, Xu Huang couldn't help being a little surprised. They didn't look like they had gone through a fierce battle, so why did they come back in less than a moment?

He rode his horse forward a few steps, Xu Huang followed Zhang, General Xu saluted briefly, and said strangely: "The two generals were ordered to be the vanguard in the front, but now they are leading the army back. I don't know why?"

Holding the tiger-headed saber tightly, Xu Chu whispered to Xu Huang with bared teeth, "General Xu, has something happened to him, my lord?"

Xu Huang was curious when he heard this, and he didn't understand what this idiotic general was talking about, so he asked strangely: "What does General Xu mean by this? Huang doesn't quite understand?"

"Why are you pretending to be confused! Ask if your lord is injured!"

Xu Huang suddenly burst out laughing, and said: "Lord Sikong is all well, there is nothing wrong with him."

Zhang Liao stepped forward immediately, looked back and forth carefully, and said, "Gongming, has your rear army been ambushed by Yuan Jun?"

Xu Huang shook his head when he heard the words, and said: "I have marched all the way here, but I haven't met half of Yuan Jun's soldiers. Why did Wen Yuan make such a statement?"

Zhang Liao let out a long sigh, and was about to explain, when he suddenly heard the sound of hooves behind Xu Huang, but it was a fine gray horse walking slowly in front of them.

On top of the gray horse, a stooped middle-aged man was looking at Zhang Liao, Xu Chu and the others with piercing eyes.

He is short in stature, and his appearance is not very outstanding. His face, which seems to have been scorched by the sun day by day, is covered with patches of old skin. Time has left deep and cruel marks on his face. Years of fighting and governing the country have taken his painstaking efforts. At this moment, he looks like a very ordinary middle-aged man, without any brilliant or outstanding features. Outstanding.

But looking at the world, no one dared to underestimate this seemingly ordinary middle-aged man.

Sweeping the Yellow Turban, defeating Dong Zhuo, expelling Liu Bei, except Yuan Shu, destroying Lu Bu, welcoming the emperor, and making the princes, most of the heroes in the world have been defeated by him, the Yangtze River is rolling, and the waves are washing the sand. Self-proclaimed hero?
He is talented and generous, appoints people on their merits, but at the same time kills people like hemp, and is suspicious by nature. He only wants to protect the continuation of the glory of his Cao family!
He has fought for half his life and killed people for half his life. He has done many right things and many wrong things. He has made great achievements and a battlefield full of bones, and his life has been illuminated by glory.

Merits and demerits can only be told by posterity, how many things in ancient and modern times are all jokes, he doesn't care how posterity evaluates him.

He is not someone else, he is Cao Cao, Cao Mengde.

It took almost an instant, and I saw Zhang Liao and Xu Chu hurriedly got off their horses and bowed to Cao Cao on one knee.

"The last general Zhang Liao."

"The last general Xu Chu!"

"See your lord!"

"Wenyuan, Zhongkang." Cao Cao opened his mouth slowly, his voice hoarse like a rotten dead tree: "You two are alone to take the black nest for the vanguard, why are you waiting here?"

Zhang Liao and Xu Chu glanced at each other, Xu Chu scratched his head, not knowing how to answer, Zhang Liao stroked his thoughts, and echoed respectfully: "Reporting to my lord, the two of us have gone and returned. Already, for the mistakes, do you still hope that the lord will forgive you?"

"Oh?" Cao Cao raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, obviously curious about Zhang Liao's words: "The safety of the lonely? How can we say this?"

Zhang Liao succinctly described how Shicai and Xu Chu rushed to Wuchao, how Wuchao caught fire, how an ambush appeared on both sides of Shanli, and how a young general who didn't know his name did it. To fool them and so on, choose the key points, simple Report it to Cao Cao quickly.

After Cao Cao listened, he remained silent, stroked the beard on his chin, thought for a while, and then smiled.

"Send the order, the whole army advances immediately, and rush to Wuchao without delay."

Xu Chu heard the words and said hastily: "My lord, the land of Wuchao is already on fire. I'm afraid there will be no food in it. Xu You tricked me into coming here. I don't know what he means. My lord needs to retreat quickly."

Cao Cao shook his head and said with a smile: "Xu You came to vote. I don't know if I really surrendered or pretended to surrender, but I can be sure that there must be food in this black nest! Don't doubt it, and go with Gu."

*******************
Shanli outside Wuchao Camp.

"Third son, something is wrong!" Guo Yuan rushed to Yuan Shang's side in a hurry, and said in a low voice: "The dust on the Zhengnan road is rising again, and the sky is full of sand. I think there are soldiers and horses coming, and I'm afraid it's Cao Jun. And returned!"

Yuan Shang sat on the stone of Shanli, his eyelids twitched when he heard this.

"Ah——, Cao Jun came back after just a few days of work. Who are you rushing to visit? Guo Yuan, how is the food delivery going with General Chunyu?"

Guo Yuan couldn't help laughing bitterly when he heard the words: "How can we say that the food and grass for 10 people can be shipped out soon? I'm afraid only two or three out of ten have been moved into the mountains and forests."

Yuan Shangchang sighed: "Okay, it's very good to be able to move these out. Send someone to tell General Chunyu that there is no need to move. Hurry up and gather soldiers and lie in ambush in the front camp of Wuchao. Let him be smart and see the right time." Rush out!"

"Look at the timing. Charge out. Kill Cao Jun?" Guo Yuan didn't quite understand.

Yuan Shang shook his head: "Kill a fart, let him see the timing and come out to save us."

Guo Yuan was immediately discouraged when he heard the words, the order was really negative.

When I was young, I saw Cao Jun go and come again. There seemed to be a lot more soldiers and horses than before. The two generals Zhang Liao, Xu Chu were still among them, not only that, but also a few more generals.

Looking at Wuchao's flames, Yuan Shang felt a bit of bitterness in his heart. These generals of Cao Jun were not good in appearance alone. In comparison, although Yuan Jun had many soldiers and horses, they were indeed inferior in terms of talents.

Seeing that Cao's army had arrived, Yuan Shang ordered Guo Yuan behind him: "Order all the soldiers hiding on the mountain to wave flags and shout, play with smoke and dust, gongs and drums, and continue to bluff. Why should I say continue?"

Guo Yuan cupped his hands listlessly and said, "No!"

From joining the army to the present, Guo Yuanzhen has never seen such a weird battle, whirring and thundering but not raining, sneaking around like a thief, what kind of battle is this?
On the quiet mountain Li, once again the flag was erected, smoke and dust rose everywhere in the darkness, gongs and drums shook the sky, and shouts of killing rang out.

Rao is Zhang Liao, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, and his face can't help but turn red.
Here we go again, the same set as before.
Wearing white armor, Yuan Shang once again appeared majesticly on top of the mountain, staring closely at Zhang Liao and Xu Chu at the foot of the mountain, and shouted loudly: "Wu, those two thieves are so shameless. This general has already softened his heart just now." I let you live, and I don’t know what is good or bad, why did you come to die again! Shou Xinggong is tired of hanging himself?"

Zhang Liao: "."

No matter how reckless and ignorant Xu Chu was, at this moment he could see that Yuan Jun was simply casting doubts, and when he saw the young general in white armor standing there still with his old god, his mouth was not clean, and suddenly an unknown fire arose Chung clasped his fists and said, "My lord, Xu Chu invites you to fight!"

Cao Cao waved his hands with a smile, looked up at Yuan Shang on the mountain, and said loudly: "The young general on the mountain, can you tell me your name?"

Yuan Shang turned his head to look at Cao Cao who was speaking.

The two pairs of eyes collided with each other, for some reason, both of them felt their eyelids twitch for no reason.

It's so strange, how come it seems like there is a tacit understanding, and it's the right eyelid that jumps?

Yuan Shang fixed his body and said loudly to the foot of the mountain: "How can this veteran not understand the rules? Before asking someone's name, shouldn't you give your own name first?"

Cao Cao smiled slightly when he heard the words, and there was a natural domineering air in his smile, and he replied: "Your friend is right, but this matter is about old man Meng Lang. Listen carefully, my old man's surname is Cao, and his name is Cao." , the name is Mengde, I wonder if my friend has ever heard of the old man's name?"
