There was once a very dazzling word popular in modern society called: butterfly effect.

In more scientific terms, that is to say, in a dynamic system, small changes in initial conditions can drive long-term and huge chain reactions of the entire system.

In common people's terms, things are unpredictable and the world is really wonderful.

The world is indeed a wonderful thing, and no one can tell what will happen to it in the next second. Just like Yuan Shang now, although he is alone and has limited power, under the instigation of his little butterfly wings,

The details of the Battle of Guandu still changed bit by bit.

Just like Yuan Shao sent Zhang Zha and Gao Lan as the positive and negative vanguards to fully support Wuchao, it was completely different from the historical situation.

Historically, Yuan Shao sent Zhang Jaw and Gao Lan to storm Cao Cao's camp, and sent Jiang Qi to reinforce Wuchao. He used one division to do both, but failed to capture both. What's even more annoying is that Zhang Jaw

Because of Guo Tu's frame-up, He Gao Lan turned to Cao Cao.

You can't have your cake and eat it too, and Yuan Shao ended up with the tragic end of losing both his wife and his army.

But now the situation is different. After Yuan Shao learned that Yuan Shang was in danger in Wuchao, his desire to protect the calf spontaneously emerged. He put aside his usual hesitant and decadent look and gave an immediate and decisive order: Fully reinforce Wuchao! Big Tree

The glorious image of a wise, divine, and mighty figure that is not seen in daily life brought a bad taste to Guo Tu.

Yuan Shao may be a flawed and incompetent monarch, but it is undeniable that he is definitely a good father who is responsible for his son.

The story was divided into two parts. Not only did Yuan Shao send troops to reinforce Wuchao, but Zhang Liao and Xu Chu were concerned about Cao Cao's comfort. The two generals led the tiger and leopard cavalry forwards to turn back from the front and rush towards the rear army led by Cao Cao.

After probably attacking for less than twenty miles, the two generals finally met up with Cao Jun's rear division. Strangely, Cao Jun's rear division was not ambushed and blocked by Yuan Jun. Instead, it was advancing towards Wuchao smoothly.

The generals commanding the infantry of the rear army were two other famous generals from Cao Wei, Xu Huang and Yu Jin.

Xu Huang's appearance is quite good. He has three long beards and is majestic. He sits on a Huali horse and holds a mountain-breaking ax in his hand. He leads the rear army in the lead, which is quite heroic.

Seeing Zhang Liao and Xu Chu leading their troops rushing back, Xu Huang couldn't help but be a little surprised. They didn't look like they had gone through a fierce battle. How could they come back without a moment's effort?

He rode his horse forward a few steps to greet him. Xu Huang followed him, and the second general Xu saluted briefly and said strangely: "The two generals were ordered to be the vanguard, but now they are leading the army back. I don't know why?"

Xu Chu held the tiger-head sword tightly and whispered to Xu Huang with bared teeth and cracked lips: "General Xu, has something happened to my lord?"

Xu Huang was curious when he heard this and couldn't figure out what the tiger-mad general was talking about. He asked strangely: "What does General Xu mean by this? Isn't Huang clear?"

"Why are you pretending to be confused! I asked your lord if he was injured!"

Xu Huang suddenly burst into laughter and said, "Master Sikong is fine, and there is nothing wrong with him."

Zhang Liaoti immediately stepped forward, looked back and forth carefully, and said, "Gongming, have your rear troops been ambushed by Yuan's army?"

Xu Huang shook his head when he heard this and said: "We have been marching all the way here, but we haven't met half of Yuan's soldiers. Why did Wen Yuan say this?"

Zhang Liao let out a long sigh and was about to explain when he suddenly heard the sound of hoofbeats behind Xu Huang, and a fine gray horse slowly walked up to the group of people.

On top of the gray horse, a stooped middle-aged man was seen looking at Zhang Liao and Xu Chu with bright eyes.

He is short in stature and has an unremarkable appearance. His face is covered with mottled skin as if it has been increasingly burned by the sun. His hair is half black and half white, slightly sparse. It is combed loosely and tied up on top of his head.

The years have left deep and cruel traces on his face. Years of fighting and governing the country have taken a lot of effort from him. At this moment, he looks like an ordinary middle-aged man without any outstanding achievements.

Outstanding point.

But looking around the world, no one dares to underestimate this seemingly ordinary middle-aged man.

Sweeping away the Yellow Turbans, conquering Dong Zhuo, driving out Liu Bei, expelling Yuan Shu, destroying Lu Bu, welcoming the emperor, and defeating the princes, most of the heroes in the world were defeated in his hands. The Yangtze River is rolling, and the waves are washing away the sand. Who else in the world today has the qualifications to dare

Call yourself a hero?

He is talented and strategic, appointing people on their merits, but at the same time he is ruthless in murdering people and has a suspicious nature, just to ensure the glorious continuation of the Cao family!

He has fought for half his life and killed people for half his life. He has done many good things and many wrong things. His great achievements and battlefields filled with bones have illuminated his life with glory.

His merits and demerits can only be narrated by future generations. Many things in ancient and modern times are treated as jokes. He doesn't care how future generations evaluate him.

He is none other than Cao Cao and Cao Mengde.

Almost in an instant, Zhang Liao and Xu Chu hurriedly got off their horses and knelt down to worship Cao Cao.

"The last general Zhang Liao..."

"The last general is Xu Chu!"

"See my lord!"

"Wenyuan, Zhongkang." Cao Cao spoke slowly, his voice hoarse like a dead tree: "I have ordered you two to be the vanguard to take the Crow's Nest, why are you waiting here?"

Zhang Liao and Xu Chu looked at each other. Xu Chu scratched his head and didn't know how to answer. Zhang Liao calmed down his thoughts and responded respectfully: "Return to your lord, the two of us left and came back again. We are really concerned about your lord's safety, and we have to do it."

I have made a mistake, do you still hope that your lord will forgive me?"

"Oh?" Cao Cao raised his eyebrows when he heard this, obviously curious about Zhang Liao's statement: "How can I talk about this?"

Zhang Liao's words were concise and comprehensive, describing how Shicai and Xu Chu rushed to Wuchao, how Wuchao caught fire, how an ambush broke out on both sides of the mountain, and how an unknown young general...bluffed them...

..Wait, choose the key points, and repay Cao Cao simply and quickly.

After hearing this, Cao Cao remained silent, touched the beard on his chin, thought for a moment, and then smiled.

"Send the order, the entire army will advance immediately and rush to Wuchao without delay."

Xu Chu heard this and said hurriedly: "My lord, the land of Wuchao has been on fire, and I am afraid that there is no food in it. Xu You deceived us into coming here, but his intention is unknown. My lord needs to retreat quickly."

Cao Cao shook his head and said with a smile: "Xu You has come to surrender. I don't know whether he is really surrendering or pretending to surrender. But what I can be sure of is that there must be food in the Wuchao! Don't be suspicious and follow me as soon as possible."

*********************

Shanli outside Wuchao Camp.

"Third Young Master, something bad has happened!" Guo Yuan hurried to Yuan Shang's side and whispered: "The dust is rising again on the road due to the south, and the sand is filling the sky. I think there are troops coming, I'm afraid it's Cao Jun.

And he’s back!”

Yuan Shang was sitting on the stone in Shanli, and his eyelids suddenly jumped when he heard this.

"Alas, after just a long meeting, Cao Jun came back again. Who is he rushing to pay a grave to? Guo Yuan, General Chunyu, how is the food and grass transportation going?"

Guo Yuan couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this: "How can we say that the food and grass for hundreds of thousands of people can be transported as soon as it is shipped? I'm afraid only 23 out of 10 have been moved into the mountains and forests."

Yuan Shang sighed: "Okay, it's good to be able to move these out. Send someone to tell General Chunyu that there is no need to move them. Hurry up and gather the soldiers and ambush them in the front camp of Wuchao. Let him be smart and spot the right opportunity."

Come out!"

"See the right moment... rush out... and kill Cao Jun?" Guo Yuan didn't quite understand.

Yuan Shang shook his head: "Kill him, let him see the right moment and come out to save us."

When Guo Yuan heard this, he was immediately discouraged. This order was really negative.

After a while, I saw Cao Cao's army leaving and arriving again. There seemed to be many more troops and horses than before. Generals Zhang Liao and Xu Chu were still among them. Not only that, but there were also several other generals.

Looking at Wuchao's fire, Yuan Shang felt bitter in his heart. These generals of Cao's army were not good in appearance alone. In comparison, although Yuan's army had many soldiers and horses, they were really inferior in terms of talents.

Seeing that Cao's army had arrived, Yuan Shang ordered to Guo Yuan behind him: "Send orders to the soldiers hiding on the mountain to wave flags and shout, play with smoke and dust, make loud noises with gongs and drums, and continue to fool... Why should I say continue?"

?”

Guo Yuan cupped his hands listlessly and said: "No..."

From the time he joined the army until now, Guo Yuanzhen has never seen anyone fight in such a weird way, chattering and thundering but not raining, and sneaking around like a thief. What kind of war is this?

On the quiet mountain peaks, large flags were erected again. Smoke and dust were everywhere in the darkness, gongs and drums shook the sky, and shouts of death were heard.

Even though Zhang Liao had been on the battlefield for a long time, his face could not help but turn red...

Here we go again, the same thing as before...

Yuan Shang, wearing white armor, once again appeared majestically on the mountain. He stared at Zhang Liao and Xu Chu at the bottom of the mountain and shouted loudly: "Those two thieves are so shameless. I, the general, just softened his heart."

I let you live, but why do you want to die again if you don't know what's good? Are you tired of the birthday man hanging himself?"

Zhang Liao: ".........."

No matter how reckless and ignorant Xu Chu was, he could see clearly at this moment that Yuan Jun was simply trying to spread suspicion. When he saw the white-armored young general standing there with his old spirit still in his sight, speaking dirty words, he suddenly felt an unknown anger.

Yong, clasped his fists and said: "My lord, Xu Chu invites you to fight!"

Cao Cao smiled and waved his hand slightly, looked up at Yuan Shang on the mountain, and said loudly: "Can you tell me the name of the young general on the mountain?"

Yuan Shang turned his head and met Cao Cao's eyes as he spoke.

The two pairs of eyes collided, and for some reason, both of them felt their eyelids twitch for no apparent reason.

It's so strange, why does it seem to be telepathic and the right eyelid is still dancing?

Yuan Shang calmed down and shouted to the foot of the mountain: "How come this veteran doesn't understand the rules? Before asking someone's name, shouldn't he state his own name first?"

Cao Cao smiled faintly when he heard this, with an overbearing air naturally revealed in his smile, and replied: "My little friend is right, but this matter is mine. Meng Lang, listen well, my little friend, my surname is Cao, and my last name is Cao."
