Chapter 436 The Bloody North (Part 2)

In mid-April, the sun is shining, and the temperature turns hot in late spring. Under the green trees, cicadas are chirping. The sunlight passes through the gaps between the branches, and the mottled shines on the top of the tent and is slightly moving.

Guo Jia, Xun You and Xun Yu looked at the information from Jizhou in their hands, hurried past the shadow of the tree, and passed by the commander's tent. What they held was the manifesto oral narrative written by Yuan Shao and Chen Lin modified and embellished. The words were passionate and they also criticized Cao Cao and Gongsun Zhi for the crimes. Originally, the two men's military strength and the place were too different from each other. Such a manifesto spread would have an unimaginable blow to the people and the morale of soldiers on both sides.

The figures that came hurriedly passed through the checkpoint. The soldiers were closely guarding around the central army's tent. From time to time, there were patrolling teams with swords to stay on them for a while. Xun Yu walked in front, Guo Jia and Xun You were on both sides, and the three of them came to the tent. Xu Chu stood there with a tiger-headed knife in his arms, like a mountain bear, almost covering most of the tent, and then stopped them.

"General Xu, what happened?" Xun You asked with a frown.

Xu Chu leaned on a big knife, but didn't move, just shook his head, and said in a muffled voice: "... The lord was so angry that he was offended by Yuan Benchu's manifesto that he couldn't see the three military advisors."

While he was talking, a voice came from the tent behind him: "Zhongkang, let Fengxiao, Wenruo and the others come in."

"Oh." Xu Chu glanced inside, and then moved his fat body to the side, giving up some space, staring at the three of them with a copper bell: "... The lord asked you to go in, please, three military advisors!"

Xun You bowed to the army and followed him into the big tent. Xu Chu stared at the backs of the three of them again, lowered the curtains, and protected the big tent with a tiger-headed knife. In front of the three of them walked in, on the hard couch in the middle, Cao Cao leaned against his forehead wrapped in a towel, and then waved his servants to his left and right, and slowly spoke.

"......You three come together today. I guess you have read Yuan Benchu's manifesto. When you come here, you can see soldiers in the army on the way. What's wrong with the generals?"

Xun Yu bowed: "Lord, you have ambitions and want to support the Han Dynasty. If you face Yuan Shao, you dare to fight against the army. Why did you force you so embarrassed by a proclamation now, but instead let the soldiers and generals under you look down on you."

The figure on the couch opposite waved, greeted them to sit down, barely supported themselves, squinted their eyes, and his voice was hoarse: "......A manifesto is worth nothing! It's okay to scold me, Cao Cao, but what did Yuan Benchu ​​scold? He has cursed all three generations of my ancestors."

Excited, Cao Cao suddenly got downstairs and stood up, glared in his eyes, waved his hand suddenly, and almost shouted: "I am not a person who can control me. After the eunuch... after the eunuch... can I choose!!!"

"Ha...hahaha..." A slight laughter came out from the side seat, and then turned into a big laugh. Xun Yu and Xun You frowned, Cao Cao turned his head and looked: "Why did Fengxiao laugh?"

Guo Jia pinched Jue with a smile on his face, which caused a cough. He put down the warm wine and said, "My lord only remembers Yuan Benchu ​​scolding you, as if he forgot that he also scolded another person."

Cao Cao, who was behind the desk, took a few steps, suddenly smiled on his angry face, and pointed at the other party: "A word of filial piety is better than ten persuasions. When you say this, I suddenly feel much more relieved. Anyway, I am not the one who was scolded. 'After the White Horse General, he is good at the horse shed of the Huns.' This sentence alone makes the prestige accumulated by Gongsun Zhi for many years useless. He should have wanted to eat Yuan Shao and Chen Lin...hahaha."

Xun You and Xun Yu looked at each other and couldn't help laughing. The person who knew the lord best was the young man in front of him. After a while, Xun You looked at Cao Cao, who had improved his spirit and bowed: "Since the lord is able to manage the ministers, it should be the priority for war. Li Dian and Le Jin came to send several letters. Yan Liang forced the white horse very anxiously. Guo Yuan built a raft pontoon bridge and may also attack Yanjin at the end of the month. Once this person's troops cross the river, Yanjin, white horses and Liyang will be connected together, and the situation will not be easy to break."

"You have a plan in your heart when Gongda said this, saying it!" Cao Cao raised his hand and sat back on the wooden couch.

"You really have a plan!" Xun You nodded, "Yuan Shao is powerful and cannot win the enemy head-on. He must first kill him and break the way. Isn't Guo Yuan in Yanjin crossing the river? The lord can lead his army to Yanjin. Yuan Shao knew that he would definitely rescue him. At this time, another group of troops attacked Baima and Le Jin. Liu Yan and the other generals of Liu Yan covered up Yan Liang's troops..."

In the seat, Guo Jia's voice also came in. He took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "... At that time, Zhang He, who was stationed in Liyang, would come to rescue him. As soon as his troops came out, he would immediately attack Liyang, alternating virtual and real attack, and the three routes would go to two routes. Guo Yuan, who was in Yanjin, did not attack himself and defeated himself. Under the lonely army, he could only give up crossing the river. Before he could really confront him, Yuan Shao would have a setback."

Bang!

His palm was slapped on the table with some excitement. Cao Cao looked at them, stood up with his hands behind his back and forth, thinking that he was thinking about the feasibility of this plan. After a while, he stopped. He narrowed his eyes and nodded: "So follow this plan and give Yuan Shao a warning first so that Yuan Benchu ​​knows that when I came, I, Cao Cao, were preparing to go to the north and didn't plan to go back in full."

This time his expression was serious, which was different from the previous jokes.

After his complexion gradually improved, he led Guo Jia out of the camp under Xu Chu's guard. Cao Cao looked at the busy military camp and occasionally remembered the manifesto. The anger really made him angry. However, over the years, everything he did was exactly the same as what he scolded him. However, under this general trend, how could he have the kindness of a woman? Even in the seemingly hot and loyal military camp, there were always some people who could turn against each other at any time. If he had a kindness of a woman, he would not know how many times he died. Not long after, he asked someone to take a pen and write two words on the plain silk idiot.

Then he asked the messenger to send it to Yecheng.

Go further north, Youzhou Changping.

Flags were waving on the city. Zhang Nan walked on the wall with a group of personal guards, staring at the army connected to the city on the field outside the city. The camp formed an obstruction force. He was a general under Yuan Shao, which was not special. However, when Jiang Yiqu lost Yuan Xi that day, there was a gap in status. When the war started, the leader stood on the front line to block the Gongsun Zhi's army that would come from Juyongguan.

"General, although Gongsun Zhi has many cavalry, it is limited after all. Field battles may be powerful. However, if the attacks may not be able to climb up the wall, the lord and his army are now in a storm, and there are also generals such as Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang He, Han Meng, etc. Gongsun Zhi is afraid that he will not dare to come out of the pass at will."

The person who spoke was a deputy general beside him. Zhang Nan was cautious by nature, but shook his head and said only: "This person cannot be considered by reason." At this time, another voice beside him laughed: "How can the general be afraid of a mere horse thief? Not to mention the more than 200,000 troops on the lord's side, I had 30,000 soldiers in the first formation, which is probably more than half of the soldiers and horses in the hands of the wolf. Besides, there are two generals behind us, Han Meng and Wen Chou guarding him. How can Gongsun Zhi..."

The words continued. Zhang Nan looked at the endless military camp outside the city with a thick back and smiled, nodding to show goodness. In his vision, something seemed to appear suddenly. His eyes turned, and in the direction of the west, several small black dots ran towards this side. Then the scouts outside the city went over there and returned. What came to his ears was that Mr. Xi had redeemed.

"Catch the city gate and let Young Master Xi enter the city to rest..."

As he spoke, the carriage swayed and ran quickly. There were many horse-riding guards around him. The horse-riding guards rushed over from the bottom of the city, and did not enter the city. Xu You stood on the carriage and chased him, shouting hard at the city: "Enemy attack!"

Enemy attack?

Zhang Nan looked away, looked west, and subconsciously pinched the hilt. At this time, the sky was bright at noon, and the end of the connection between the sky and the earth, with black lines stretching. An army quickly appeared on the field three miles away, heading towards this side in a straight line. The huge white wolf flag was roaring in the wind, and five thousand white wolf riders spread out in one word, and the horse's hooves slowly walked through the soil and grass slopes, without stopping.

Under the white helmet, his cold eyes looked at Yuan Jun who was gathering in front of him. His hands holding the gun handle were tightened. When the gentian phoenix fired his gun high into the sky, someone shouted in the array: "Prepare"

Wow

Lin Li was shaking the guns. In this sound, he put down his flat ends in pieces and pointed forward. A cavalry captain ran through the front of the cavalry with a gun. His handle was torn into the corner of his mouth, and he roared hard, "Kill!"

At this moment, there was no more words in the extended front. The horse's hooves suddenly accelerated in slow steps, getting faster and faster. The next second, a rumbling roar came out, and countless churning iron hooves instantly shook the entire field.

In Changping City, the cars had already run away. Zhang Nan didn't care whether there was a second young man inside. He just looked at the cavalry that was sweeping over like a tide of sea tide, and felt a little confused and even ridiculous.

"The war started like this..."
Chapter completed!
