Chapter 149 (1/2)
For Cao Chun's death, Cao Cao is also full of fire, but there is no way, the situation is better than people. This time, the news brought by Xiahou Dun has completely eliminated Cao Cao's desire to seek revenge on the eastern Wu Kingdom.
Soldiers with general skills! It sounds as if he was telling a story. If he had not known Xia Houdun's character, Cao Cao would have thought that Xia Houdun was telling lies and evading responsibility. Cao Cao was always proud of Cao's elite soldiers. He always thought that even if he met Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army, he would not lose much. However, Chen Ren, who had only trained for one year, thoroughly showed Cao Cao what a strong army is.
In fact, before that, Cao Cao had already formed an army composed of soldiers with high quality, and Chen Ren's new army strengthened Cao Cao's belief.
Of course, these are afterwords. At present, what Cao Cao has to face is that Xuzhou is captured. If Cao Cao does not have any measures to deal with it, his prestige among the princes in the world will be greatly reduced. In this era, if we lose our prestige, we will lose the right to dominate. However, since the Soochow could not win, they could only change their target. Yuan Shao from the North was undoubtedly a good target.
At this time, Yuan Shao did not have Jizhou and Youzhou, as was the case in history. Yuan Shao, who had just eliminated Liu Bei, was attacked by Gongsun Zan of Youzhou before he could digest it. In the face of Gongsun Zan's attack, Yuan Shao was not afraid, but he also tried his best to deal with it. This gave Cao Cao an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Before Xia Hou Dun came, Cao Cao, who had already got the result of the Xuzhou campaign, and his advisers made a plan to attack Yuan Shao. Cao Cao turned his head and asked, ”Sir, how can we forge ahead in Jizhou?”
”If the Lord trusted his subordinates, they would like to take 30000 people and seize Jizhou,” he said
When Cao Cao heard this, he was surprised. He knew that he was not a boaster. He immediately said, ”Sir, you really only need 30000 people? You need to know that Yuan Shao in Jizhou now has 200000 troops! ”
With a smile, he said, ”Yuan Shao has 200000 troops, but not many of them are elite. Only one hundred thousand Jizhou army can be regarded as an excellent teacher, but when he captured Liu Bei, he lost more than 10000 yuan. In the course of this year, he fought against Gongsun Zan for many times, and the remaining one of the former Jizhou army was less than 50000. We should also guard against Gongsun Zan of Youzhou. We can only draw out more than ten thousand men and horses, and we have to guard several counties. It's enough for the master to allocate 30000 people to his subordinates! ”
Hearing this analysis, Cao Cao thought it was reasonable, and immediately said with a smile, ”it's lucky that Mr. Cao has helped you! I don't know who you want to be the general? ”
After all, the four generals of Hebei Province are so famous that it is useless if there is no corresponding general. After thinking about it for a while, Xi Zhicai looked up and said, ”I would like to take general Xia Houdun as the main general, general Xia Houyuan and general lejin as deputy generals, and also to ask the Lord for a pioneer.”
Cao Cao's eyes suddenly realized: ”Sir, did you say that...”
”If you want to attack Jizhou, you have to rely on this person's power,” he said with a smile and nodded
Cao Cao also pondered a little, and immediately patted his thigh and said, ”good! After a while, Mr. and I will go to the man in person and ask him to fight! ”
On the other side of the city of Nanyang, Jingzhou, there was a lot of laughter.
In the conference hall of the official residence, a general of the Dongwu navy was talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was very warm.
Huang Gai raised the glass on the table and said, ”come on! This time can successfully complete the Lord's plan, let us water army to win the first merit, all heroes are meritorious! All of you, come and fill this cup
”Good!” All of you are generals who march and fight. They are all bloody men. Hearing Huang Gai's words, they all hold up their glasses and drink them down at the same time.
”Ha ha ha ha ha!” After a long smile, sun CE couldn't help but smell: ”General Huang, now that we have captured Nanyang City, when are we going to capture Xiangyang and Nanjun?” Now Xiangyang is addicted to shooting silver.
