Chapter 1102 Raising troops to attack Wei(1/2)
Yuan Shu was worried about not knowing how to deal with Cao Aman.
Let him ignore it. It is really hard for people to feel relieved when traitors in troubled times.
But if Cao Cao was killed, Cao Aman, as his close friend when he was young, Yuan Shu would be a little unstoppable.
This system task solved Yuan Shu's concerns well.
As long as he could force Cao Cao to surrender at the end of the siege, Yuan Shu would have a loyal Cao Aman.
It is not difficult to defeat Cao Wei. There is only one difficulty in this task, that is, let Cao Cao surrender himself.
If Cao Thief did not surrender when the situation was over and would rather die, then Yuan Shu would have no good idea.
Yuan Shu sent generals Long Sa to general Yuan Shao, Guo Jia and other important figures of the coalition forces back to Shouchun and asked Liu Bowen to resettle these people.
Yuan Shao was even sent back to the Yuan family's old house by Yuan Shu. At that time, this guy would inevitably be scolded by his father Yuan Fengyitong.
This is the best ending for Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shu asked the soldiers to rest in Runan for ten days, and then all three armies attacked the Great Wei.
He also sent Angkor to send a message to Jia Xu, asking the soldiers from Xuzhou to go north to attack Dayan.
Yuan Shu took two steps and attacked Wei and Yan at the same time, and Chu's determination to unify the world was fully demonstrated.
Cao Cao lost 300,000 troops on the battlefield in Runan, and the remaining warable soldiers of Wei State were only more than 100,000.
Upon hearing that Yuan Shu was coming to attack, Cao Cao quickly summoned all the civil and military officials under his command to discuss matters.
Xuchang, the Wei Palace.
Cao Cao and his ministers gathered in the conference hall.
Cao Cao was lying in the main position and his face was very bad.
It looks obviously much older than during the Battle of Runan.
This battle left him exhausted. Several generals under his command died in battle, and the plotter Guo Jia was captured, which caused heavy losses.
His depressed mental state should have had a good rest for a while.
However, the Chu army attacked too quickly, and Cao Cao could only force himself to take charge of the overall situation.
The advisers under his command were still those, but the position that should have belonged to Guo Jia was empty.
At the end of the counselor's queue, there was another Xu You.
The counselor Xun You bowed his hand to report to Cao Cao:
"Reported to the King, the Chu army raised troops in Runan and advanced all the way north.
Our army was stationed in Xuchang, and all counties were unable to resist the attack of the Chu army.
The Chu army broke through ten cities along the way, and now it is less than a hundred miles away from Xuchang!"
"That's how..."
Cao Cao covered his head and waved to Xun You:
"Can you be aware of filial piety in the near future?"
Xun You hesitated a little. He didn't know whether he should report the information he had discovered to Cao Cao.
Seeing that Xun You did not answer his question, Cao Cao raised his voice and said:
"I'm asking you something alone!
Is there any news of filial piety recently?”
Xun You had to bite the bullet and said to Cao Cao:
"According to detailed investigations, Fengxiao has already served Yuan Shu and was sent to Shouchun by Yuan Shu..."
After Xun You said this, he looked at Cao Cao nervously.
He thought Cao Cao would be furious when he heard this news, but he didn't expect that a hint of relief appeared on Cao Cao's face.
“Haha…hahahaha!
I will never let go of the orphans down!”
All the advisers were confused when they heard this.
Didn’t Xun You understand what he said? Guo Jia had already followed Yuan Shu and was sent to his lair by Yuan Shu.
Why does his own king turn black and white when he opens his mouth?
Cao Cao explained to his ministers:
"If Guo Fengxiaozhen surrendered to Yuan Shu, then with Fengxiao's understanding of our army, Yuan Shu would definitely bring him with him in this battle.
But now Yuan Shu did not do this, but instead sent Fengxiao to Shouchun, which proves that Fengxiao refused to surrender.
Feng Xiaozhen is my loyal minister!
Unfortunately, no one in the world understands him, only I understand."
Generals such as Yue Xi, Xu Chu, Xiahou Dun also spoke out to support Guo Jia, all saying that Guo Jia is loyal to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao nodded with satisfaction and continued:
"This time the big defeat is the fault lies in the orphanage, not the filial piety.
Fengxiao has already done his best for my Great Wei.
Xun Yu?"
Xun Yu, who was among the leaders of all the counselors, stepped out and bowed:
"The subordinates are here."
"Send more money to the Guo family and take good care of Fengxiao's family.
He took Fengxiao's son Guo Yi to Gu's mansion, and Gu wanted to take care of him personally."
"As for the order."
Xu You saw all this in his eyes, his eyes dripping and rolling around.
It seems that the place of Dawei is not easy to mess around. Although Cao Cao had a headache, he was obviously not as easy to fool like Yuan Shao.
If you want to climb to a high position in Wei State, you must make great contributions.
After sighing with emotion, Cao Cao asked the ministers again:
"Now that the Chu army is at the city, do you have a good idea to defeat the enemy?"
The civil and military officials stared at each other, but they couldn't come up with any good ideas.
It’s not because they are not good at strategy, but because there is too much difference in strength between the two sides.
The millions of coalition forces of the Han, Wei and Yan were defeated by Yuan Shu.
How can the more than 100,000 Wei troops in Xuchang City be repelled?
Xiahou Dun, who was in a hot temper, stood up from among the generals and said:
"Why don't I think Yuan Shu is so strong?
In my eyes of Xiahou Dun, there is only a king, and people in the world cannot see anyone.
Even if the Chu army had millions of people, I would regard it as nothing.
King, you give the 100,000 troops to my command.
I will definitely be able to lead the army to defeat the enemy and kill the Chu army without leaving any armor!"
Cao Cao glanced at Xiahou Dun helplessly and said nothing.
Xiahou Dun had a strong aura, but no matter how high his fighting spirit was, how could he hand over the army to a blind man to command?
Isn’t that blind command?
How to deal with the Chu army depends on the master's plan.
Now that Guo Jia is not here, Xun Yu, the leader of the adviser, stepped forward to offer advice to Cao Cao:
"The Chu army is coming in full force. If we go out of the city and fight with it, our army will undoubtedly be defeated.
According to my opinion, what our army should do now is to defend the city and wait for the Chu army to attack.
As the saying goes, one-stop work will decline again, and three-fold exhaustion.
When the morale of the Chu army was frustrated, our army looked for the weaknesses of the Chu army to defeat it.
Only in this way can we protect the Great Wei."
Xun Yu's plan was relatively stable, and the civil and military officials in the hall couldn't help but nod.
"My minister Chen Qun approves."
"My subordinate Xun You agreed."
"What you said is a good plan, and I am very fond of you."
