Chapter 103: Liu Qing Tours Hebei in the North(2/2)
Liu Bei nodded, fully agreeing with Guan Yu's point of view. After staying with Cao Cao for a long time, Liu Bei felt more and more that those who achieve great things must have talented people around them, like Cao Cao. But what about him? In addition to his two brothers, there are also
What?
"Yun Chang is right. There are many scholars who came to the plains with me to take refuge this time. I will settle them one by one when they arrive in the plains."
Liu Bei's battle has ended, but Cao Cao's battle is in full swing.
Cao Cao raised his troops and returned to Jinan that day. With the bravery of Cao Ren and Xiahou Dun, and Yu Jin's interception of Liyang, he almost made dumplings of tens of thousands of Yellow Turbans in Jinan.
Then the three armies gathered together and drove all the Yellow Turbans to Dongpingling. In one battle, they defeated the ownerless Yellow Turbans in Jinan and had to surrender 30,000 soldiers.
"Zhongluo's net plan has contributed greatly to our army's great victory!" Cao Cao praised him in front of the three armies.
"My lord, you are so complimentary. What a trivial skill!" Cheng Yu said modestly.
"Then next, can we save Beihai?" Cao Cao asked again.
Cheng Yu seemed to have thought of the answer a long time ago, and said without thinking: "My lord, Beihai Kong Rong is dead, Beihai has fallen, and we still saved a lot of people. Liu Guoxiang went to Beihai, but not only did he not achieve any results, but he came back in vain. With such a small manpower,
I'm afraid it's flat
The Yellow Turbans in the Yuan Kingdom are very difficult to deal with. My lord, I heard that Tao Qian was fighting against the Yellow Turbans in Anqiu. My lord, you might as well lead your troops to Zhuxu and take a peek at Anqiu. If Tao Qian wins, our army will take the opportunity to take Beihai. If
Tao Qian was defeated..."
Cheng Yu suddenly paused.
Cao Cao frowned and suddenly looked at Cheng Yu.
Cheng Yu did not continue speaking. He was not in the mood to say the next half of the sentence.
A hint of impatience flashed across Cao Cao's face. The feeling he hated most was hesitation.
"Take advantage of the opportunity to take Langya?" Cao Cao guessed.
"It's a beautiful name, Xiang Zhu Tao Qian." Cheng Yu even made excuses.
Look at you, Tao Gongzu, you can't even defeat the Yellow Turban. I'll fight for you. You can lend me Langya to station some troops.
"Hahaha!" Cao Cao chuckled, "Isn't this called treating the other person in his own way?"
In the past, Tao Qian took the opportunity to quell the chaos and occupied the counties, including most of Taishan County. He was not satisfied and ran around in all directions. But now, there was a fire in the backyard and the Yellow Turbans were everywhere in Xuzhou. He had to fight quickly.
Returning to Xuzhou, this is equivalent to giving Cao Cao a huge flaw.
"Zhongde's plan is very good! Xiahou Dun, I order you to be the vanguard and lead five thousand troops to attack Zhuxu. Cao Ren's army will follow. Remember, when you reach Zhuxu, you only need to defend and wait and see what happens!"
"Here!" Xiahou Dun and Cao Ren said in unison.
Cao Cao turned around and asked, "Zhongde, Qingxu and Yanyu have been turned upside down. Why do you not see all the actions of King Bohai alone? Zhu Ling is still stationed at Fenggao and seems to have no intention of making progress."
Cheng Yu shook his head and said: "It's not that General Zhu doesn't want to make progress, but that General Zhu's supply line has reached its limit. If we enter the chaos in Qingzhou and the supplies are interrupted, it will be in danger! King Bohai rules the army with benevolence and strict military discipline. What he saw along the way
, did not commit any offense against the people, and even distributed food to the hungry people many times. This is a benevolent and righteous teacher, not a pioneering teacher."
Cao Cao listened, it made sense.
However, the whole Qingxu Yanyu is in chaos, and it seems that King Bohai doesn't intervene, which is not his style.
Are you holding back some big move? Cao Cao thought.
"Lord, the spies are here to report that many of the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans have the intention of marching westward. Many of them have crossed Taishan County and entered the Shanyang County of Dongping Kingdom." Yu Jin suddenly came to report the military situation.
"Go west? What do the Yellow Turbans want?" Cao Cao asked confused.
