Chapter 361： Xuzhou or Guanzhong? Cao Cao's painful choice
Latest website: "This army is indeed the army sent by Yuan Shao to support Cao Cao. The chief will be Gao Su, the lieutenants will be Zhu Ling and Lu Kuang, and the army division will be Fengji."
Chutian's army swept the entire battlefield, seized thousands of horses from Jizhou, and captured more than 20,000 people. Through the captives, Chu Tian obtained more detailed information.
"Master, catch the enemy alive!"
Tai Shici brought a captive military commander over. The general was terrified of Chu Tian's momentum, and was frightened by the tiger's army. He knelt in front of Chu Tian with a stinky smell.
"Yuan Shao's general?"
Chu Tian was riding a war horse, looking at this timid general.
If you can catch the Lanling King Gao Su alive, Gao Su has a decent force and special arms. But the general who was so scared in front of him was obviously not King Lanling. If he were King Lanling, this posture would be too demeaning.
"Who are you?"
"The villain Lu... Lu Kuang, the general of Yuan Gong..."
"Lu Kuang?"
Chu Tian vaguely thought that there was such a person. Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang were men of Yuan Shao's son Yuan Shang. Later, after Yuan Shao's defeat, he took refuge in Cao Cao.
This is also a historical military commander.
"Be loyal to me, but spare your life!"
Chu Tian wanted to see Lu Kuang's panel, so he planned to spare Lu Kuang a little life.
"The villain is willing to surrender, willing to surrender!"
Seeing that he could survive, Lu Kuang immediately surrendered to Chu Tian.
Chu Tian couldn't help muttering in his heart. It would be great if all the captured generals could surrender so simply and neatly. However, few true loyal military commanders would surrender easily like Lu Kuang.
[Name]: Lu Kuang
[Identity]: Yuan Shang, a general, later turned to Cao Cao
[Rank]: Gold level (infantry)
【Loyalty】: 50
[Commander]: 56 [Strength]: 68 [Intelligence]: 23 [Politics]: 22 [Charm]: 21
"..."
Chu Tian recruited a general similar to Mi Fang, and it was hard to say a word. Lu Kuang's loyalty is very low, and he may betray at any time.
Lu Kuang has value worth using, and Chu Tian asked him to surrender all the captured Jizhou soldiers.
This group of Jizhou soldiers can act as cannon fodder to attack Puyang City.
Lu Kuang took the initiative to ask Chutian: "I am willing to be the vanguard and lead troops to attack Puyang City!"
"General Lu is fierce and unparalleled. There is only Cao Mengde. It is not worthy of General Lu as the vanguard. Tai Shi Ci, you lead the Yueqi Camp to clear the way."
Chu Tian comforted Lu Kuang. There is no doubt that after acquiring Mi Fang, Wu Anguo, and Gongsun Ao, Chu Tian received another member of the generals, and soon he could gather the five tigers.
Lu Kuang feared Chu Tian more than loyalty, and followed Chu Tian to defeat Cao Cao.
Yuan Shao's 50,000 army was almost completely wiped out south of the Yellow River. King Lanling, one of the three famous generals in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, was defeated, and Zhu Ling and Feng Ji fled.
When Yuan Shao learned that the fifty-thousand army that he had finally put together was annihilated just after crossing the Yellow River, Yuan Shao, who was fighting against Zhongshan State, was stunned and could not recover for a long time.
The fifty thousand army, that was the fifty thousand army, so it was destroyed!
Xuzhou Chu Zimou's sphere of influence is like a bottomless pit, no matter how many troops enter Chu Zimou's sphere of influence, the entire army will be wiped out.
The enemy troops wiped out by the Xuzhou Army did not have a million, but hundreds of thousands.
"The subordinates once said that the lord should assemble all the soldiers and horses to support Cao Mengde south. The lord did not listen to his subordinates and attacked Jizhou north. The subordinates also said that if they are determined to take Jizhou, they will concentrate all their troops and make quick decisions. We should divide our troops and go south. Even if we divide our troops and go south, you can hold on to the white horse and make an offensive threatening Xuzhou Mu. However, Minggong refuses to listen, so he has to believe Guo Tu's words."
Jushou and Tianfeng complained against Yuan Shao.
Guo Tu was frightened and said to Yuan Shao: "Today our army is newly defeated. Jushou and Tian Feng don't want to worry about how to be the master, instead they fight inwardly. This is a rebellion."
Jushou and Tian Feng were annoyed: "Guo Tu, you are just talking about it. When will I wait for an objection?"
"enough!"
Yuan Shao was angered by his advisers.
Yuan Shao had a headache when he was defeated outside and quarreled inside.
Chutian possesses great prestige, followed by a group of veterans, and has characteristics such as "Han Wu", "Fourth Generation and Sangong", and "Female Lord in Court" to suppress various families, and Zhang Zhao, Lu Su and other civil servants to reconcile various families. For the time being, there is no trouble for Yuan Shao.
As long as Chu Tian continues to win, the family will shut up.
Yuan Shao's defeat will intensify the contradictions among the family factions.
"To run Hebei with all my strength, let Cao Mengde and his generals come to Yecheng to join me. I asked the court to make him a general of Yanzhou Mu and Zhendong. Let him still lead the army."
Yuan Shao didn't dare to continue sending soldiers to this bottomless hole in Henan, so he decided to revise a book, and asked Cao to operate as a guest general, abandon the East County, and come to Yecheng to seek common cause.
"Yuan Shao is defeated? I advise him not to divide his forces and go south to fight Chu Zimou as an enemy. He just can't listen. This is good... If Yuan Shao does his best, he can force Chu Zimou back..."
In Handan, Jizhou, the alien lord Zhao Long, who served as a general under Yuan Shao, heard that the opposite person mentioned that Yuan Shao had sent 50,000 troops to Chu Zimou, and couldn't help but slap the table with emotion.
The person opposite said: "Yuan Benchu is just for his own use, not as good as the lord, the lord can replace it."
Zhao Long poured wine for the man: "Although I have you, it's like Liu Bang got Han Xin, but I want to get the best of Yuan Shaozhi's civil servants and generals. Jushou, Tian Feng, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang Yun, Ju Yi, Gao Lan, Judging, Gao Su (the king of Lanling, the three famous generals of the Northern Qi Dynasty), Hu Luguang (the marksman, the three famous generals of the Northern Qi Dynasty), etc., can be reused. Some of them are loyal and difficult to give in. I need to enter in a more reasonable way. Lord Jizhou."
The person said: "Since the lord wants to obtain Yuan Shaozhi's civil servants and generals, he needs to plan carefully."
"I heard that some of Cao Cao's strangers recruited an assassin. It was with the assassin that Cao Cao had the opportunity to capture Yanzhou. If the assassin was recruited to my sect..."
"Does the lord want to use an assassin to assassinate Yuan Shao?"
"This is the trump card used as a last resort... My nephew, Shen Rong, has been bought by me. Once Yuan Shao and I win the entire Jizhou, it is the time to act. Yuan Shao's peak moment is also the moment of his demise."
Zhao Long relied heavily on his subordinates. This was the imperial commander he obtained after the Battle of Mobei.
East County, Puyang City, the first man of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Cao Cao frowned.
He also learned that Yuan Shao’s aid had been annihilated as soon as he arrived in Henan, and he was even more afraid of Xuzhou Muchu Zimou. In the eyes of Cao Cao, Chu Zimou, who participated in the Battle of Mobei and suppressed Cao Cao for two consecutive years, is comparable to the **** of war.
Pang Juan, who had lost more and defeated less, came again, and Guo Jia once again served as Pang Juan's strategist and surrounded Puyang with Pang Juan, making Puyang's teleportation array invalid.
Guo Jia, who was supposed to be Cao Cao's military division, turned around Cao Cao, making people suspect that this was done deliberately by Chu Zimou.
"The reinforcements sent by Yuan Benchu were defeated by Chu Zimou's cavalry. He persuaded me to lead the remnants to go to Yecheng for refuge. What do you think?"
Cao Cao hesitated after receiving Yuan Shao's proposal.
If it were the usual Cao Cao, he would not be so indecisive, but this choice will determine his life. Not only Cao Cao, but also the fate of Cao Hong, Xiahouyuan, Xiahou Dun, Cao Ren, Cao Chun and other clan generals.
Will Chu Zimou use him after he surrenders? Will Cao Cao's clan generals be reused? If no one can be reused in Chu Zimou's power, then the Cao family and Xiahou family can bid farewell to the aristocratic family in the future.
Cao Cao considered not only his own interests, but also the interests of his family.
Xun Yu said: "Yuan Shaobing has many but the laws are not correct, and the civil servants and generals are intrigue. As for Yan Liang and Wen Chou, but the courage of the husband. The only ones worthy of use are Jushou, Tian Feng, Zhang Yun, Gao Su, but Yuan Shao does not If he can employ people, he will definitely be taken advantage of by others. Sooner or later, he will become a prisoner of strangers. Why should the lord go to take refuge in a dying person."
Cao Cao asked, "Since Yuan Shao is a dying man, who does Wen Ruo think he can go to?"
Xun Yu replied: "Sili Xiaowei governs Guanzhong, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, taking the emperor to order not ministers, Kuang and supporting the Han room, Yuan Chang (Zhong Yao) has written many times to come, please Wen Ruo to go to Guanzhong. If the lord is interested It might be a good choice for Kuang to help the Han room and go to Guanzhong to seek refuge with the Lieutenant."
"Kuang Fu Han Room..."
Facing Xun Yu's proposal, Cao Cao fell into deep thought.
Xun Yu was ingenious, thinking that Cao Cao could go and take refuge in Lao Qin, who was in the middle of the pass.
Cao Cao still had some delusions about helping the Han room, but he couldn't help but hesitate when he thought of Luoyang, the city of God, which was turned into ashes in the fire that day.
The prosperous country was easily burned down by a prince. The emperor was first controlled by Dong Zhuo and then by Old Qin. Does Old Qin really intend to help the Han room? Can Hanshi be ZTE for the second time?
Most of the Yingchuan gentry like Xun Yu still had the idea of reviving the Han Dynasty. After all, the Yingchuan gentry played an important role in the Eastern Han court, and they were unwilling to lose their former glory.
Under the banner of the emperor of the Han Dynasty in Chang'an, Lao Qin had a fatal attraction to Xun Yu. Therefore, Cao Cao was not surprised at Xun Yu's proposal to defect to Guanzhong. Perhaps, for the Yingchuan scholars, it seems more in their interests to take refuge in the emperor and replace the old Qin with the Yingchuan and Runan families instead of the Guanzhong family. Except for Li Si, Old Qin had no ministers of internal affairs. If he relied on him, the influence of Yingchuan and Runan clans would be even greater, and they would become the core group of Old Qin.
Zhong Yao was helping Lao Qin recruit the gentry of Yingchuan and Runan, and Xun You, Xun Yu and others were affected.
Xuzhou Mu Chu Zimou was also an important choice for the nobles, but Chu Zimou’s team was mainly Langya country veterans and Xuzhou aristocratic families. Yingchuan and Runan aristocratic families who joined Chu Zimou’s forces would surely become vassals and be Langya. The elders of the country and the Xuzhou family are overwhelming, only ranking third in Chu Zimou's power. This was unacceptable to the Yingchuan and Runan families who once controlled the Han court.
Cao Cao, who is about to surrender, has no right to interfere with Yingchuan Xun's choice. Once Cao Cao surrendered, he was only a minister of other princes, and Xun You and Xun Yu would become other officials' courtiers.
Most disciples of the aristocratic family will give priority to the interests of the aristocratic family, followed by individuals.
Cao Cao looked at Xun Yu and sighed: "If Wen has the talent of Wang Zuo, he will be reused no matter where he goes. It is Cao Mengde who is incompetent and disappoints Wen Ruo. Soon, we will no longer be worthy of respect. In a few years Since then, the monarchs have fought hard, but have always been trapped in the East County. It is really me that Cao Mengde can't help you..."
When Cao Cao talked about deep feelings, he couldn't help but wet his robe with tears, and the general Wenchen's eyes were red.
They were born and died for several years, but in exchange they fell apart.
Everyone burst into tears. For a long time, they asked Cao Cao for instructions: "Lord, please make a decision as soon as possible. I am willing to follow."
Cao Cao wiped away his tears with his robe. For many years of hard work, his true feelings were revealed and it was difficult for himself: "The monarchs follow me to break through, go to Chenliu, and use Chen Liu's teleportation array to go to Guanzhong! Notify Xiahou Dun and Cao Ren to withdraw to Chen Liu , Join us! If Chen Liu is also besieged by Chu Zimou in advance, the generals will go directly to Guanzhong!"
"Listen and obey!"
All civil servants and generals are ready to go to Guanzhong.
The teleportation array in East County failed because of Puyang's siege, so they had to go to Chenliu. If Chen Liu's teleportation array also failed, they could only go to Guanzhong on foot.
Cheng Yu, Man Chong, and other Yanzhou nobles can hardly say a word about Cao Cao's decision, and it is difficult to understand. Unlike the gentry in Yingchuan and Runan, they are not very willing to leave the three-acre land in Yanzhou.
Not Cheng Yu, Manchong and other Yanzhou nobles still chose to act with Cao Cao.
Cao Cao is a hero and has his charm.
"You have worked for me for many years, and Meng De has nothing to do with it. If you are willing to go to Guanzhong with me, you can go. If you take refuge in Chu Zimou or other vassals, follow you, and never force it."
Cao Cao summoned a group of strangers who supported him and announced that they would be dismissed.
Now Cao Cao has chosen to abandon his status as a prince and become a minister of other princes, and he does not have the capital to support many customers.
The strangers looked at each other.
Who could have thought that the first hero in the late Eastern Han Dynasty would be forced to this point?
Cao Cao was about to flee without even the Battle of Guandu.
All this is caused by that man.
"Cao Cao is going to escape to Guanzhong?!"
When Chu Tian heard this news, his heart was greatly shocked.
He made Cao too anxious, and Xun Yu's suggestion gave Cao Cao new ideas, causing great trouble to Chu Tian.
As the first lord of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Chu Tian had been competing against Lao Qin as the second lord. Because of his older age, Old Qin is a scheming old fox. He annexed Dong Zhuo’s power with strong soldiers and strong horses. If Cao Cao is rushed to Old Qin, Qin’s strength will be strengthened by at least half, Chu The gain is not worth the loss.
"Order the army of soldiers, as well as the major army groups, to intercept Cao Cao's army at all costs, and to arrest Cao Cao's civil servants, including Cao Cao himself!"
"In addition, I persuade Cao Cao, Xu Yitaishou, and general to not be persecuted. His father is still in Xuzhou!"
Chutian immediately sent all the troops to chase and intercept Cao Cao, who had fled west, and at the same time, before Cao Cao fled to the site of Lao Qin, he tried to surrender Cao Cao.
In Guanzhong, Old Qin Qi received a request for surrender drafted by Xun Yu on behalf of Cao Cao, and he promised Cao Cao to be a general of chariot and senior officials who led Yanzhou animal husbandry, and he threw an olive branch to Cao Cao. Anyway, the emperor is in his hands, even if Cao Cao is named the Three Lords and Generals.
"Order Meng Tian, Li Xin, Lu Bu and others who attacked Hanoi to meet Cao Cao...No, I have to go and meet Cao Cao myself! Otherwise, Cao Cao might be intercepted by Chu Zimou!"
Old Qin was overjoyed. When Cao Cao arrived, wouldn't his civil servants and generals all come to Guanzhong?
Chutian's army swept the entire battlefield, seized thousands of horses from Jizhou, and captured more than 20,000 people. Through the captives, Chu Tian obtained more detailed information.
"Master, catch the enemy alive!"
Tai Shici brought a captive military commander over. The general was terrified of Chu Tian's momentum, and was frightened by the tiger's army. He knelt in front of Chu Tian with a stinky smell.
