Chapter 361 Xuzhou or Guanzhong? Cao Cao's painful choice

The latest website: "This army is indeed the army sent by Yuan Shao to support Cao Cao.

Chutian's army swept the entire battlefield, seized thousands of war horses from Jizhou, and captured more than 20,000 people. Through the captives, Chutian obtained more detailed information.

"Master, capture the enemy general alive!"

Taishi Ci brought over a captured military general. The military general was afraid of Chu Tian's momentum, and was frightened by the Hu Ben army. He knelt down in front of Chu Tian with a stench.

"Yuan Shao's general?"

Chu Tian rode a war horse and looked at the timid general.

It would be best if Gao Su, the King of Lanling, could be captured alive. Gao Su had decent force and also had special arms. But the military general in front of him, who was frightened by the shit, was obviously not the King of Lanling. If he was the King of Lanling, this attitude would be too degrading.

"Who are you?"

"Little man Lu... Lu Kuang, general of Duke Yuan..."

"Lu Kuang?"

Chu Tian vaguely thought that there was indeed such a person. Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang were the subordinates of Yuan Shao's son Yuan Shang. Later, after Yuan Shao's defeat, they joined Cao Cao.

This is also a historical warrior.

"Be loyal to me, but spare your life!"

Chu Tian wanted to see Lu Kuang's panel, so he planned to spare Lu Kuang's life.

"The villain is willing to surrender, willing to surrender!"

Seeing that he could survive, Lu Kuang immediately surrendered to Chutian.

Chu Tian couldn't help muttering in his heart. It would be nice if all the captured generals could surrender so neatly. However, few true loyal generals would surrender easily like Lu Kuang.

【Name】: Lu Kuang

[Identity]: Yuan Shang's general, later joined Cao Cao

[Grade]: Gold (Infantry)

[Loyalty]: 50

[Commander]: 56 [Force]: 68 [Intelligence]: 23 [Politics]: 22 [Charm]: 21

"..."

Chu Tian recruited a general similar to Mi Fang,

It's hard to say. Lu Kuang's loyalty is very low, and he may defect at any time.

Lu Kuang had value worthy of use, and Chutian asked him to surrender all the captured Jizhou soldiers.

This group of Jizhou soldiers can serve as cannon fodder for the attack on Puyang City.

Lu Kuang took the initiative to ask Chu Tian, ​​"I wish to be the vanguard and lead troops to attack Puyang City!"

"General Lu is unparalleled in strength, and a mere Cao Mengde is not worthy of General Lu being the vanguard. Taishi Ci, you lead the Yueqi battalion to clear the way."

Chu Tian appeased Lu Kuang, and there is no doubt that after acquiring Mi Fang, Wu Anguo, and Gongsun Ao, Chu Tian acquired another divine general, and he would soon be able to gather the five tiger generals.

Lu Kuang was terrified and feared Chutian more than his loyalty, so he followed Chutian to attack Cao Cao.

Yuan Shao's army of 50,000 was almost wiped out south of the Yellow River. King Lanling, one of the three famous generals of the Northern Qi Dynasty, was defeated, and Zhu Ling and Fengji fled.

When Yuan Shao learned that the 50,000 army he had managed to piece together was annihilated just after crossing the Yellow River, Yuan Shao, who was crusade against Zhongshan, was stunned and couldn't recover for a long time.

50,000 troops, that was 50,000 troops, and they were destroyed like this!

Xuzhou Chu Zimou's sphere of influence is like a bottomless pit, no matter how many troops enter Chu Zimou's sphere of influence, they will all be wiped out.

The enemy troops wiped out by the Xuzhou Corps were not one million, but hundreds of thousands.

"The subordinates once said that the lord should gather all the troops and horses and go south to support Cao Mengde. The lord will not listen to the words of the subordinates and attack Jizhou from the north. We should divide our troops to go south. Even if we divide our troops south, we can hold on to the white horse and make an offensive to threaten Xuzhou Mu. However, Duke Ming does not listen, but he has to believe what Guo Tu said."

Ju Shou and Tian Feng complained a lot about Yuan Shao.

Guo Tu had a look of fear on his face, and said to Yuan Shao, "Today our army has been defeated. Ju Shou and Tian Feng don't want to worry about how to share their masters. Instead, they have internal strife.

Ju Shou and Tian Feng were annoyed: "Guo Tu, you're talking nonsense, when will I have any objections?"

"enough!"

Yuan Shao was provoked by his advisors.

The external defeat, the internal quarrel endlessly, Yuan Shao had a headache.

Chutian has great prestige, and has a group of elders to follow, and has the characteristics of "Han Wu", "four generations and three princes", "female protagonist approaching the court" and other characteristics to suppress various families, and Zhang Zhao, Lu Su and other civil officials to reconcile various families. For the time being, there is no trouble with Yuan Shao.

As long as Chutian keeps winning, the aristocratic families will shut up.

The defeat of Yuan Shao will intensify the conflicts between the factions of the family.

"I will run Hebei with all my strength, and let Cao Mengde and his generals come to Yecheng to join me. I ask the court to make him Yanzhou Mu and Zhendong General. Let him still lead the troops and horses."

Yuan Shao did not dare to continue sending troops to this bottomless pit in Henan, and decided to write a letter asking Cao Ying to be a guest general, abandoning Dongjun, and coming to Yecheng to conspire together.

"Yuan Shao was defeated? I advised him not to split his troops south to fight against Chu Zimou, but he just didn't listen. Now that's fine... If Yuan Shao did his best, he could force Chu Zimou back..."

In Handan, Jizhou, the alien lord Zhao Long, who served as a general under Yuan Shao, heard the person opposite him mention that Yuan Shao sent 50,000 troops to Chu Zimou, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

The person on the opposite side said, "Yuan Benchu ​​is stubborn, and he is not as good as the lord. The lord can take his place."

Zhao Long poured wine for the man: "Although I have you, just like Liu Bang has Han Xin, but I want to win Yuan Shao's civil servants and generals. Ju Shou, Tian Feng, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang He, Ju Yi, Gao Lan, Shen Pei, Gao Su (King Lanling, three famous generals in Northern Qi), Hu Luguang (marksman, three famous generals in Northern Qi) and others can be reused. Some of them are loyal and not easy to give in. I need to enter in a more reasonable way. Lord Jizhou."

The man said: "Since the lord wants to obtain Yuan Shao's civil servants and generals, then careful planning is required."

"I heard that some of Cao Cao's foreign disciples recruited assassins. It was with the help of the assassins that Cao Cao had the opportunity to capture Yanzhou. If the assassin was recruited to my sect..."

"Could it be that the lord wants to use an assassin to assassinate Yuan Shao?"

"This is a trump card that I have to use as a last resort... My nephew, Shen Rong, has been bought by me. Once Yuan Shao and I have captured the entire Jizhou, it will be the time to act. Yuan Shao's peak is also the moment of his demise."

Zhao Long relied heavily on the subordinates in front of him. This was the emperor-level commander he obtained after the Battle of Mobei.

In Dongjun, Puyang City, Cao Cao, the first hero of the Eastern Han Dynasty, frowned.

He also learned that Yuan Shao's reinforcements were wiped out as soon as they arrived in Henan, and he was even more afraid of Xuzhou Mu Chu Zimou. In Cao Cao's eyes, Chu Zimou, who participated in the Battle of Mobei together and suppressed Cao Cao for two consecutive years, is comparable to the Han God of War.

Pang Juan, who lost more and won less, came back again. Guo Jia once again served as Pang Juan's military advisor and surrounded Puyang with Pang Juan, making Puyang's teleportation array invalid.

Guo Jia, who was supposed to be Cao Cao's military adviser, turned to surround Cao Cao, making people suspect that this was deliberately done by Chu Zimou.

"The reinforcements sent by Yuan Benchu ​​were defeated by Chu Zimou's cavalry. He persuaded me to lead the remnants to Yecheng for refuge. What do you think?"

When Cao Cao received Yuan Shao's proposal, he hesitated.

If it was the usual Cao Cao, he would not be so indecisive, but this decision will determine his life. Not only Cao Cao, but also the fate of Cao Hong, Xiahou Yuan, 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 the 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: "Even though Yuan Shao's troops are numerous, the laws are not in order, and the civil servants and generals are all intrigued. As for Yan Liang and Wen Chou, they are nothing but the bravery of their husbands. The only ones worthy of use are Ju Shou, Tian Feng, Zhang He, and Gao Su, but Yuan Shao did not. If he can use people, he will definitely be taken advantage of. Sooner or later, he will become a prisoner of aliens, why should the lord go to a dying person?"

Cao Cao asked, "Since Yuan Shao is about to die, who does Wen Ruo think he can go to seek refuge with?"

Xun Yu replied: "The commander of the Sili school governs Guanzhong, the people live and work in peace and contentment, relying on the emperor to make no ministers, and help the Han family, Yuan Chang (Zhong Yao) has written many times, asking Wen Ruo to go to Guanzhong. If the lord wants to To help the Han family, perhaps going to Guanzhong to take refuge with Captain Sili would be a good choice."

"Help the Han room..."

Facing Xun Yu's proposal, Cao Cao fell into deep thought.

Xun Yu came up with something ingenious and thought that Cao Cao could go to the old Qin who was in the middle of the pass.

Cao Cao still had some delusions of helping the Han family, but he couldn't help but hesitate when he thought of Luoyang, the god capital that had been reduced to ashes in the fire that day.

The prosperous capital of the country was easily burned by a prince. The emperor was first manipulated by Dong Zhuo and then by Jiujiu Lao Qin. Did Jijiu Lao Qin really intend to help the Han family? Can the Han Dynasty be defeated by ZTE for the second time?

Most of the Yingchuan nobility such as Xun Yu had the idea of ​​revitalizing the Han Dynasty. After all, the Yingchuan nobility played an important role in the Eastern Han court, and they did not want to lose their former glory.

Jiujiu Lao Qin, under the banner of the great Han emperor in Chang'an, has a fatal attraction to Xun Yu and this group of scholars. Therefore, Cao Cao was not at all surprised that Xun Yu proposed to go to Guanzhong. Perhaps, for Yingchuan scholars, it seems to be more in line with their interests to rely on Jiujiu, who has the emperor, and reuse the Yingchuan and Runan families instead of the Guanzhong family. Apart from Li Si, Jiujiu Lao Qin has no interior minister. If he turns to him, the influence of the Yingchuan and Runan gentry will be even greater, and they will become Jiji Lao Qin's core group.

Zhong Yao was helping Jijiu Lao Qin to recruit nobles from Yingchuan and Runan, and Xun You, Xun Yu and others were affected.

Xuzhou Mu Chu Zimou is also an important choice for the nobility, but Chu Zimou's team is dominated by the elders of Langya State and Xuzhou aristocratic families. If Yingchuan and Runan aristocratic families join Chu Zimou's forces, they will definitely become vassals and become vassals by Langya. The elders of the country and the Xuzhou aristocratic family are overwhelming, and they can only rank third in Chu Zimou's power. This is unacceptable to the Yingchuan and Runan families who once controlled the Han court.

Cao Cao, who was about to surrender, had no right to interfere with the choice of the Xun family in Yingchuan. Once Cao Cao surrendered, he himself was only a subordinate of other princes, and Xun You and Xun Yu would become their ministers.

Most disciples of aristocratic families will give priority to the interests of the aristocratic family, followed by individuals.

Cao Cao looked at Xun Yu and sighed: "Wen Ruo has the talent of Wang Zuo, no matter where he goes, he will be used highly. It is me, Cao Mengde, who is incompetent and let down Wen Ruo's great talent. Soon, we will no longer be equal to each other. Since then, all the lords have fought hard, but they have always been trapped in the East Commandery. It is really my Cao Mengde who can't help you..."

When Cao Cao spoke of the depths of his love, he couldn't help weeping, and the eyes of all the generals and ministers turned red.

They were born and died for several years, but in exchange they fell apart.

Everyone burst into tears, and for a long time, everyone asked Cao Cao for instructions: "Please make a decision as soon as possible, my lord, I am willing to accompany you."

Cao Cao wiped away his tears with his robes, and after years of hard work, it was difficult for him to reveal his true feelings: "Follow me to break out of the encirclement, go to Chenliu, and use Chenliu's teleportation formation to go to Guanzhong! Inform Xiahou Dun and Cao Ren to withdraw to Chenliu. , join us! If Chen Liu is also besieged by Chu Zimou in advance, then the generals will go directly to Guanzhong!"

"Listen to your orders!"

All civil servants and generals are ready to go to Guanzhong.

The teleportation formation in Dongjun failed because Puyang was besieged, so they could only go to Chenliu. If Chen Liu's teleportation formation also fails, they can only go to Guanzhong on foot.

Cheng Yu, Man Chong and other Yanzhou nobility were unable to say anything about Cao Cao's decision, and it was difficult to understand the taste. Different from the nobles in Yingchuan and Runan, they were not very willing to leave this acre of land in Yanzhou.

Instead of Cheng Yu, Man Chong and other Yanzhou nobles, they still chose to act with Cao Cao.

Cao Duo is a hero, and has his charm.

"You have served me for many years, and Meng De has nothing in return. If you are willing to go to Guanzhong with me, you can go. If you want to join Chu Zimou or other princes, you will also go with you, and you will never force it."

Cao Cao gathered a group of foreign disciples who supported him and announced the dismissal of all the disciples.

Now Cao Cao has chosen to give up his status as a prince and become a general of other princes, and he does not have the capital to support many disciples.

The strangers looked at each other.

Who would have thought that the first hero in the late Eastern Han Dynasty would be forced to such a point?

Even before the Battle of Guandu broke out, Cao Cao was about to flee.

It's all because of that man.

"Cao Cao is going to flee to Guanzhong?!"

Chu Tian was shocked when he heard the news.

He took Cao too hastily, and Xun Yu's suggestion gave Cao Cao a new idea, causing great trouble to Chu Tian.

As the first lord of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Chu Tian had been competing with Jiujiu Lao Qin as the second lord. Jiujiu Lao Qin was a wily old fox because he was relatively old. He annexed Dong Zhuo's forces, and his army was strong. If Cao Cao was driven to Jiji Lao Qin, Ji Ji Lao Qin's strength would be strengthened by at least half, and Chu Tian would lose more than his gains.

"Order the army of military soldiers, as well as the major armies, to stop Cao Cao's army at all costs, and capture as many of Cao Cao's civil servants and generals, including Cao Cao himself!"

"Also, persuade Cao Cao to surrender, and promise to hold the post of guardian and general. He will never persecute. His father is still in our Xuzhou!"

Chutian immediately ordered various troops to chase and intercept Cao Cao, who had fled westward.

In Guanzhong, Jiujiu Lao Qin received a surrender request drafted by Xun Yu on behalf of Cao Cao, and promised Cao Cao the generals of chariots and cavalry, and senior officials who led Yanzhou shepherds, and threw an olive branch to Cao Cao. Anyway, the emperor is in his hands, even if Cao Cao is made the third Duke and the general.

"Order Meng Tian, ​​Li Xin, Lü Bu and others who attacked Hanoi to go to meet Cao Cao... No, I will go to meet Cao Cao in person! Otherwise, Cao Cao may be intercepted by Chu Zimou!"

Jiujiu Lao Qin was overjoyed. When Cao Cao came, wouldn't all his civil servants and generals come to Guanzhong?
