Chapter 17 It turned out to be Yuzhou

"The Biography of Liu Ermu in the History of the Three Kingdoms": When he arrived, Qian Yi Danyang had four thousand soldiers to benefit the First Lord, and the First Lord went to the regular script and returned to Qian.The predecessor of Qianbiao was the governor of Yuzhou, Tun Xiaopei.

"Huh?" Cao Cao was full of ambition and sat on his horse YY after entering Xuzhou by himself: Tao Qian would naturally want to be hacked into pieces; that Chen Deng is a rare talent, it is best to take it for his own use.Considering that this guy has always been wise and safe, he should just scare him; as for Mi Zhu, who is known as one of the four richest men, if he knows the times, he might as well spare his life, but his famous sister must not be let go.Just when YY was reaching its climax, unexpectedly, disasters suddenly fell from the sky on both sides. For Cao Cao, it was like eating watermelon in the dog days, and suddenly found that what he was chewing in his mouth was dog feces. Time caught off guard.

However, Cao Cao is also a battle-tested figure after all. After the initial shock, he immediately understood that today's sneak attack might return in vain, and the most urgent task now is to lead his army out of the encirclement to preserve his strength.So under his command, Cao Jun's central army began to organize gradually and orderly. Although the mountain was steep and could not be killed up the mountain to fight, it still retreated slowly.At the same time, the front army led by Xia Houyuan also discovered that the rear army was attacked, and quickly joined forces to rescue.

"Cao's army is defeated but not chaotic, it is indeed a rare elite in the world." Seeing this, Guan Yu on Jiuli Mountain couldn't help sighing.Zhao Feng was not that carefree, he was busy directing loudly: "Be careful not to shoot all the rockets on the weeds on the roadside, and shoot more at Cao Cao's army." The messenger hurriedly conveyed his order.It should be noted that the weeds on both sides are all burning, although the momentum is amazing, but this road is quite spacious, and the real damage caused is limited.After Zhao Feng looked at it for a while, he realized that it would be better to just shoot in the middle.

"Quickly push out of this mountain col!" Cao Cao commanded loudly while riding on his horse. At this time, the rain of rockets came directly, and Cao's army was in chaos.Although Cao Cao tried his best to command, the Dawan Liangju under his crotch was an animal after all, and when he saw the fire burning, he panicked and ran around.When Cao Cao finally got off his horse and came back to command, the entire Chinese army was in complete disarray, so the soldiers could only rely on their instincts to find escape routes.

"My lord, let's go!" It was Dian Wei who led Cao Cao's personal guard camp to protect Cao Cao in the chaos. Cao Cao saw what he knew could not be done, so he let out a long sigh and retreated from the col under Dian Wei's protection.At this moment, the flames were so intense that it illuminated the valley of Jiuli Mountain as bright as day. Zhao Feng, Guan Yu, Liu Bei and others could see clearly from the mountain, but they were too far away to shoot Cao Cao with bows and arrows, so they had to watch him escape from the flames.

"Follow with all your strength!" Guan Yu saw that some of Cao's troops had escaped from the mountain depression, and the fire had subsided a little, so he ordered immediately. At this time, Liu Bei and others on the opposite mountain also killed the whole army.Cao's army had been burned to the ground by the fire before, so there was no fighting power in a hurry, and it was defeated for a while.Cao Cao escaped from death under the protection of his personal guards. Liu Bei and Zhao Feng led their troops to chase for dozens of miles. They didn't retreat until the east was faintly lighted and the men were exhausted.

"Ah!" Seeing that there were no pursuers behind him, Cao Cao stopped his horse and breathed a sigh of relief.Looking around, less than half of the remnants and defeated generals around him, could not help feeling sad from it, and roared to the sky.At this moment, Li Dianlejin led the army and horses of the headquarters, and rushed to protect the adviser Guo Jia and other civil servants.After gathering the defeated army, there were only about [-] people left.

"The 15 army came to Xuzhou with me, and now more than half of them were killed or injured, but Xuzhou City is still standing." Cao Cao gritted his teeth, and the generals around him saw him so angry that none of them dared to persuade him.Guo Jia waited until Cao Cao's attack had passed, and then stepped forward to persuade him: "My lord, Xuzhou City is too urgent to be captured now, why not join forces in Yanzhou, recuperate, and make plans again."

"That's the only way to go." After Cao Cao calmed down his anger, he also knew that this was the best policy. At this moment, he rode a flying horse to report that Xun Yu, who was staying in Yanzhou, had an urgent letter. "Huh?" Cao Cao accepted the letter, but he couldn't help but wonder: the base camp of Yanzhou is guarded by two advisors, Xun Yu and Cheng Yu, plus Cao Ren, an expert in defending the city. thing.

"Ah?" After opening the letter, Cao Cao was in a cold sweat after reading it hastily, his hands were trembling and he couldn't speak.Guo Jia took the letter and looked at it. It turned out that Lv Bu led the army to take advantage of the emptiness behind Cao Cao. Lv Bu had already conquered Yanzhou and entered Puyang. be preserved.

"Lü Bu is brave and has no plan, how can he destroy my city?" Cao Cao had recovered his strength at this time, and asked the people through gritted teeth, this is also a question he couldn't figure out.

"Lü Bu worshiped Chen Gong as his advisor, and he relied on this person for his advice in several confrontations. General Cao Ren lost many battles with him." The reporter replied honestly.

"Chen Gong?" Cao Cao muttered the name of his savior, feeling mixed emotions in his heart for a while, and gradually felt his head hurt more and more, and finally fell to the ground in front of his eyes.

"Book of the Later Han Dynasty": In the third year of Chuping, Xuzhou was invaded by soldiers, and was defeated by the design of Captain Zhao Feng.At that time Lü Bu broke into Yanzhou, Cao Cao heard the news and his head relapsed, and he recovered within ten months.

When some people are unlucky, others are naturally happy, especially people like Cao Cao who are unlucky.At this time, Tao Qian's mansion in Xuzhou City was decorated with lanterns and festoons, full of joy. Everyone was happy for the retreat of Cao Jun. Even Tao Qian, who had been seriously ill for a long time, ordered a big feast to celebrate.

"Mr. Xuande please!" Someone toasted Liu Bei from time to time during the banquet. To Zhao Feng's surprise, Liu Bei was a very good drinker. He drank one cup after another very refreshingly. He probably practiced it after hanging out with Zhang Fei for a long time.However, after drinking for three rounds, Tao Qian signaled his subordinates to take out the Xuzhou governor's badge again, and walked up to Liu Bei tremblingly in his hand, saying: "Xuzhou was able to escape this time, Xuande contributed a lot, and the old man thought about the past and the future." , Cao Cao has been spying on Xuzhou day and night, and the only one who can save Xuzhou is Xuande, Qian is already physically unable to support him, and tomorrow he will play Xuande to replace the old man, and I hope Xuande will not refuse for the sake of the people of Xuzhou." As soon as this remark came out, the audience was silent, and everyone was watching how Liu Bei would respond.

Liu Bei refused even if he didn't even think about it, regardless of Zhang Fei scratching his ears and cheeks impatiently, and even Guan Yu turned a blind eye to his winks.At this time, Cao Bao suddenly said: "Mr. Tao still has two sons under his knees, how can he entrust Xuzhou to outsiders?"

"The old man's two sons are mediocre, and they are really not good at defending the city." Tao Qian sighed, Cao Bao waited to say more, but Tao Qian coughed, and dared not say more right now.When Zhao Feng saw this scene, he secretly praised Tao Qian in his heart. Tao Qian was able to be the governor of Xuzhou in this chaotic world, and he was naturally no one to take it easy.If it wasn't for his old age and frailty, he would probably have his share in the crowd.

But no matter how Tao Qian asked, Liu Bei refused to agree.At this time, a Confucian scholar in Tsing Yi said to Tao Qian: "Mr. Tao, since Mr. Liu is unwilling to take over Xuzhou at this time, it is better to ask him to station in Xiaopei temporarily to ensure safety. This is a rest for the soldiers."

Seeing that Liu Bei could not be convinced for a while, Tao Qian had no choice but to do so, and finally said: "I would like to ask Mr. Liu to stay in Xiaopei for a while, and I will write this chapter to report to the imperial court, proclaiming that Duke Xuande is the shepherd of Yuzhou."

"Yuzhou Mu?" Zhao Feng was taken aback when he heard this, and then suddenly realized.The Romance of the Three Kingdoms only said that Liu Bei was stationed in Xiaopei, but did not mention that Tao Qian played him as the shepherd of Yuzhou, so that I later wondered why so many people called him Liu Yuzhou. It turned out that the allusion came from here.

Although Zhao Feng also read some military books with Guan Yu, but in actual battles, he still draws more from "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Firstly, the advantage of foresight does not need to be wasted; secondly, military books are dead. ;The last and most important point is that although I have learned traditional Chinese characters from Jian Yong, it is still difficult to read the bamboo slips of war.

Liu Bei didn't want to leave, so he immediately agreed to this compromise plan.Zhao Feng deliberately stepped forward to chat with the Confucian scholar in Tsing Yi, and it turns out that this guy is the Sun Gan Sun Gongyou from Beihai, who was hired by Tao Qian not long ago to serve as the governor of Xuzhou.Zhao Feng knew that he was also a loyal person to Liu Bei, so he was polite again, and his words were really polite.Sun Gan also had a deep affection for Captain Zhao when he saw how courteous Zhao Duwei treated him like a god.

Now that the war had come to an end, Zhao Yun bid farewell to Liu Bei and returned to Youzhou early the next morning.Liu Guanzhang was very reluctant, but he also knew that Zhao Yun was a loyal person, so he had to practice for him.Zhao Feng thought for a long time during the meeting, and finally said to Zhao Yun: "I don't think Gongsun Taishou is Yuan Shao's opponent, but he has a strong personality, if he loses, he will kill himself. If Zilong wants to, he can come to Xuzhou."

"Thank you Bo Tao for your kind reminder." Zhao Yun also said solemnly.Zhao Feng didn't know that what he said made Zhao Yun and Liu Bei admire him so much that even with Zhuge Liang later, Liu Bei still had to discuss with him before making major decisions.

Of course, the current Zhao Feng doesn't care about this at all.What he thought was, now that Tao Qian had declared Liu Bei to be the shepherd of Yuzhou, why not take the opportunity to develop power in Yuzhou instead of just holding an empty title.
