King of Liao at the end of Han Dynasty

Chapter 383

"Stumbled into the water? Do you know how many soldiers we will lose if we fail to attack Cao Mengde's main camp this time..." Liu He shouted anxiously. "Listen, all generals! Hurry up and cross the river, and wipe out Cao Jun for me!"

Xian Yupu blushed, hesitated for a moment, turned around and shouted to the army on the bridge, "The whole army obeys the order, the Lord has orders, speed up the river!" Immediately, the speed of the army crossing the river was three points faster, but it was a pity that it was at the cost of human life. Come, with more and more troops on the bridge, more and more soldiers were squeezed down the river, howling and being washed downstream by the galloping Yellow River...

Regarding this, Liu He said angrily. "Are you waiting to let Cao Jun know?" Liu Hedang, who was in a rage, grabbed the crossbow of the guards around him and shot one of the soldiers crying for help. All the troops were moved.

Alas... Although this matter is extremely inhumane.But that's the only way to go. If Cao's army from the other camps is attracted to stick to the other side, then our army will fall short. Food and salaries are useless to the overall situation!But Liu He didn't know.Two or thirty miles away from them upstream, there is also a group of soldiers... Cao Jun!
Sima Lang's intention was to let Cao Cao's attention go downstream, thinking that Liu He's army would forcefully cross the Yellow River from upstream, but he secretly asked people to build a hidden pontoon bridge downstream. On the day when Liu He's army crossed the river, all the attention of Liu He, Sima Lang and others were on the pontoon downstream, so Guo Jia's strategy was to let Cao Cao take advantage of Liu He's attention no longer. Quickly cross the Yellow River and attack Liu Hewang's camp!

Then Xun Yu raised another objection. Liu He has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses. It is not a surprise attack that can hurt his vitality. As long as Liu He cultivates for a while, he will make a comeback, but Cao Cao is not like this. It can deter other princes who are still waiting and watching, and can also expand their own strength. If they are lucky, they can further win Hebei and other places...

"Li Dian, Le Jin!" Cao Cao shouted.

"The end is here!" The two said, clasping their hands together.
"Lead an army of [-] and attack Liu and Wang's camp!" Cao Cao shouted.

"promise!"

"Xiahouyuan, Xiahoudun!" Cao Cao shouted again.

"The end is here!"

"Follow a sneak attack on Liu He's grain and grass camp!"

"promise!"

"Zhang Liao!"

"The end is here!"

"I'll give you five thousand light cavalry to attack Li Yang in a detour!"

"Promise!" Zhang Liao clasped his hands, and the generals ordered their soldiers and horses to set off immediately...

After all the arrangements were completed, Cao Cao walked to Le Jin, patted Le Jin on the shoulder and said, "Although Liu He has already transferred most of the main force to the other side of the Yellow River, there must still be many elite soldiers around Liu He. You must lead the army to persevere." Hold on, we must wait until someone burns Liu He's food and grass camp, and Liu He must flee in panic!"

"No! Swear to serve the lord to the death!" Le Jin cupped his hands.

Cao Cao nodded, pulled out the Yitian Sword from his waist, and shouted, "Soldiers, life and death depend on this. Kill! Kill! Kill!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" Everyone roared, and they wanted Liu and Daying to rush over...

"King Zhao! Look!" The eunuch beside Liu He shouted, Sima Lang, Wei You and others looked at the other side of the river in doubt.

"Huh? Could it be that Zhang Yan burned down Cao Cao's camp? Didn't I tell him so?" Liu He wondered.

"No! It's been tricked!" Sima Lang suddenly yelled strangely.

"Oh? Boda, what's going on?" Liu He exclaimed immediately. At this time, don't mess around, otherwise the victory and defeat will be reversed immediately...

Sima Lang hesitated and said, "Master..."

"Ah! Water! Water! Cao Jun dug the Yellow River!" Explaining that he just opened his mouth, suddenly the eunuch at the side yelled, and they took a look under the moonlight, and sure enough, they saw the water of the Yellow River rushing over from a distance He killed the army he sent to attack Cao Cao's main camp.

Sima Lang immediately understood that he had been tricked, and shouted to Liu He, "My lord, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time. The main force of our army, more than [-], has already reached the other side of the river. Cao Jun has already expected that he will definitely send troops to kill him!"

"What? Boda, you said your plot was discovered?" Liu He shouted.

"I don't know how Cao Jun found out about this, but the lord still retreats quickly!" Sima Lang shouted.

As soon as Sima Lang finished speaking, he saw a soldier running over, "King Zhao! Cao Jun has already crossed the Yellow River [-] miles away from our camp, and is attacking our army!"

"Ah... Boda, you!" Liu He immediately pointed at Sima Lang excitedly.

"Damn it, my lord, this place is going to be at war with Cao Cao's army in a while, so you should leave quickly!" Sima Lang shouted.

There was no reminder from Sima Lang, Liu He immediately left surrounded by a group of people, Sima Lang looked at the 10,000+ army of his own who had been soaked in the Yellow River on the other side of the river with a dark face, squinted his eyes, fiercely He said, "Cao Cao! Why did you see through a certain strategy? Does Yuan Jie have to come to defeat you? A certain refuses to accept! A certain refuses to accept! A certain refuses to accept!"

The more Sima Lang shouted, the louder he was, Wei You hurried over to hold Sima Lang and said, "Boda, victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. Let's leave quickly!" Sima Lang pulled away......

The result of the great battle... It is conceivable that Liu He's hundreds of thousands of troops were directly defeated by Cao Cao in just a few hours. Zhang Yan led more than one hundred thousand troops across the Yellow River. After breaking through Cao Cao's main camp, it was burned first, and then submerged by the water of the Yellow River. More than [-] troops died together with the few dead soldiers left by Cao Cao. Zhang Yan only brought more than ten trusted generals with him. After escaping and coming back, they were in a state of disarray, and they didn’t even have any armor on their bodies. Also, because they were going to swim across the Yellow River, they only held a waist knife in their mouths, so how could they wear armor...

Liu He's main battalion originally had tens of thousands of troops, but they could fight with Le Jin and Zhou Xuan, but in the stalemate, seeing his own food and grass camp full of anger, Liu He's army was demoralized, and was repelled by Le Jin. Liu He led the army Back to Liyang, no way, Liyang has already been occupied by Zhang Liao. Although Liu He still has tens of thousands of troops around him, Liu He is greedy for life and afraid of death, and dare not act rashly. ...

In Liyang City, in the prefect's mansion, Cao Cao sat on the main seat, clutching his head in distress, because after the war, Guo Jia told Cao Cao the truth of everything, and also told Cao Cao that Xun Yu, who was used as a bait, had died in the into the fire......

Wen Ruo... so it turns out that he is already terminally ill, and the medicine stone has no effect?So it turns out that he has been struggling for the past few days?
"My lord, when the affairs in the camp are over, how about going to meet the lord immediately?" Cao Cao recalled the last words Xun Yu said to himself...

Holding his forehead, Cao Cao sat in the main seat in the hall, took a deep breath, "Wen Lie, Wen Ruo... Did you really perish in the sea of ​​flames?"

"Yes... yes, Uncle Shi!" Cao Xiu, who was standing in the hall with fists clasped, couldn't hide the sadness in his eyes, and choked up, "After I found out, I tried to persuade Mr., but Mr. said that the great sage will So, don’t make me suffer from that fatigue, let me have a good rest! It’s my nephew and nephew..." At the end, Cao Xiu broke down in tears.

Everyone in the hall felt extremely heavy at the moment, Xia Houyuan, Cao Hong, Xu Chu, Dian Wei, Zhang Liao, Le Jin, etc. all lowered their heads, feeling sorry for it.Wen Ruo!This time, you have far surpassed Jia, but...but without you!hateful!Guo Jia, who was leaning on the back of a log, had some tears in his eyes.

"Step! Step!" Cao Cao got up, walked slowly into the hall, looked down at Cao Xiu who was covered in blood, stretched out his right hand to pull him up, and shouted, "Get up!"

"Uncle Shi!" Cao Xiu, with a sad face, was afraid to meet Cao Cao's eyes.

Shaking his head and laughing lightly, Cao Cao patted Cao Xiu on the shoulder, nodded in approval and said, "You've done a great job. With you accompanying Wen Ruo to the end, I think Wen Ruo won't be too lonely when he is dying! He... the least Happy to be alone!"

"Uncle Shi!" Cao Xiu looked at Cao Cao excitedly...

"You have come all the way through the siege, you are extremely exhausted, go down and have a good rest!" Cao Cao said in a low voice, looking at Cao Xiu with distress, not only for Wen Ruo, but also for his hard-earned victory... ………

Cao Hong stepped forward, patted Cao Xiu on the back, and said in a low voice, "Wen Lie, let's go!" Turning his head to look at Cao Hong, Cao Xiu wanted to say something, but was dragged away by Cao Hong...

Since when, I, Cao Mengde, have been reduced to the point where everything depends on the efforts of the counselors under the account?What have I done myself?Wen Ruo is good at internal governance and diligent in government affairs. He manages Ke, Yu, and Xu prefectures in an orderly manner. Needless to say, he is resourceful. There are few in the world.

Why?
Ah!Others help me.Whether it is for promotion and honor, for the glory of the family, or for the fame of the world, or for the power, or for the family, only these three people, the power is not enough to move their ambitions, and the money is not enough to move their hearts. , This is the celebrity!It's not about fishing for fame, it's not about earning a false name, it's about being a real celebrity!
