Cao Cao was overjoyed, so he acted according to Xun Yu's strategy, gathered most of his troops, and raided Yuan Shao's left flank.Chun Yuqiong, the general of the left wing, was attacked only to find out that this was Cao Cao's main force, and hurriedly sent people to report to Yuan Shao.However, the attack of Cao's army was very fierce, and Chun Yuqiong could not wait for reinforcements to arrive, and the defense line was captured.The vanguard general of Cao's army was Xiahoudun, who met Chun Yuqiong in the melee, but Chun Yuqiong was his opponent and was defeated in less than ten rounds.Chun Yuqiong's 30,000 horses fell into the encirclement of Cao's army, suffered heavy casualties, and saw that the entire army was about to be annihilated.Chun Yuqiong led the remnants to fight their way out of the encirclement and retreated to the brothers' troops.Cao's army won a complete victory, and immediately withdrew from the battlefield, so that the army supported by Yuan Shao could not find a figure.Cao Cao did not stop, ordered the troops to march quickly, ate the left flank, and he also took the opportunity to gnaw the right flank.Yuan Shao was still sending people to find out the whereabouts of Cao Jun, Cao Cao had already waved his army to kill his right flank, and the right-wing general was Gao Lan, who was a hard bone, and Xiahoudun fought with him for fifty rounds without winning or losing.In the end, Xu Chu came out to replace Xiahoudun and took thirty rounds to repel Gao Ran.Yuan Shao wanted to make Cao Cao's dumplings and led the main force to the left flank, but not only did not save Chun Yuqiong's troops, but the news came that the right flank was attacked.Yuan Shao was furious, and led a large army to rush to the right flank to rescue Gao Ran.However, the distance was too far, and on the way to him, the defense line on the right flank had been breached.Under the charge of Cao Junyi, Gao Lan's troops fell into a bitter battle, and Gao Lan was anxious, praying that Yuan Shao's army would be killed as soon as possible.Unexpectedly, Yu Ban led a force to block the retreat first, and Gao Lan's headquarters suddenly panicked, lost their fighting spirit, and fled for their lives.Gao Ran saw that the general trend had gone, so he had no choice but to fight his way out and flee with the remnants.When Yuan Shao arrived, there was still the shadow of Cao Jun, and there were only the corpses of Yuan soldiers everywhere, and the losses of Gao Lan's troops exceeded two-thirds.Yuan Shao hung his head and ordered the troops to assemble and abandon the one-word formation.In this battle, Yuan Shao lost a total of 50,000 horses, and his vitality was greatly damaged, and he had to convene a meeting to discuss the next plan.However, Xu You and Fu Zhu were not present, and Yuan Shao hurriedly sent his own soldiers to invite.Unexpectedly, the soldiers came back and reported: "Xu You is not in the camp and does not know where to go; He was too sick to come. ”Yuan Shao was furious: "I just lost the battle, and these two people didn't attend the meeting, obviously laughing at me."
Someone, go find out Xu You's whereabouts, and arrest him to see me.Also, by the way, I'm going to stomp him. ”Tian Feng and the others were shocked, and hurriedly pleaded: "Xu Yu left the camp without authorization, you can send someone to arrest him, but he is sick and can't be caught casually." ”Yuan Shao snorted: "We are holding a military aircraft meeting, and we have to come when we are sick, otherwise the military law will deal with it" Tian Feng said: "When a person is sick, his brain can't think of anything, even if he is frustrated, it will be useless, it is better to let him recuperate well, and contribute to the Lord in the future." ”Yuan Shao saw that there were many suitors, so he waved his hand and said: "Forget it, anyway, I have more military divisions, it doesn't matter if there are one or two less, go and tell Fu Zhu that you won't have to see me in the future, lest I get angry when I see him." ”Tian Feng saw that Yuan Shao had changed his words, so he immediately changed the topic: "Lord, Cao Cao is scheming, we must not be on guard, I suggest gathering troops and attacking Cao Cao's camp." ”Yuan Shao hesitated a little: "Cao Cao is guarding according to the danger, and I am afraid that our side will suffer heavy casualties." ”The judge said: "There are still 200,000 soldiers and horses in our army, even if there are more casualties, it doesn't matter, after all, Cao Cao also has casualties, and we can afford it, Cao Cao can't afford it." ”Yuan Shao thought for a while and said: "It makes sense, my loss of 20,000 yuan is also pediatric, and Cao Cao's loss of 10,000 yuan will be painful." ”Yan Liang said: "I have a plan, the lord continues to confront Cao Cao in Guandu, and I quietly lead a force from Guandu to attack Chen Liucheng directly. ”Guo Tu hurriedly: "Chen Liucheng is garrisoned by Cao Zhang, and assisted by Cheng Yu, and the lone army has committed a taboo in the army, so it is absolutely impossible." ”Yan Liang said: "Chen Liucheng only has 30,000 defenders, as long as I lead 100,000 troops over, I can capture Chen Liucheng in an instant, and then Cao Cao's general trend is gone." ”Feng Ji objected: "Although Chen Liu only has 30,000 defenders, but there are many people, once Cao Zhang calls on the people to participate in the defense of the city, General Yan will not only be unable to capture Chen Liu in a short time, but will also fall into the danger of being besieged." ”Tian Fenghe also strongly opposed it, and Yuan Shao saw that all the military advisors did not agree, so he vetoed Yan Liang's risky plan.Tian Feng offered a plan: "The main public soldiers have a lot of food, and the benefit of confronting Cao Cao is greater than that." ”Yuan Shao was a little interested: "Master Tian Junshi will talk about the specifics. ”Tian Feng said: "There is only one Gongsun Zan in the belly and back of the lord, and he can't afford to make big waves at all, the lord can be said to have no worries, and it is no problem to deal with Cao Cao slowly."
On the other hand, Cao Cao couldn't afford to fight a protracted war, he had many enemies on his back, Lu Bu, Sun Ce and Liu Bei, and even Liu Biao were also his threats, and the longer he fought with the lord, the more dangerous it became. ”Yuan Shao nodded: "It makes sense" Tian Feng said again: "If the lord unites with the other princes, then Cao Cao's death is not far off." ”Yuan Shao shook his head: "Unite a fart, Lao Tzu's soldiers are strong and strong, can you use it to unite with other princes" Tian Feng said: "This is a quick way to win." ”Yuan Shao said: "But if you win, you have to share the territory with others, I don't want to do it, I want to swallow Cao Cao's territory alone." ”Tian Feng persuaded: "Anyway, the whole world will also belong to the lord in the future, so what does it matter if you divide some territory now." ”No matter how Tian Feng persuaded him, Yuan Shao was stunned and didn't listen, he thought that he was strong enough and didn't need to be entangled with other princes.However, Yuan Shao still followed Tian Feng's advice, contracted the battle line, and concentrated his forces to confront Cao Cao at Guandu in order to consume Cao Cao's strength.When the news of Guan Yu's soldiers leaving Wancheng came, Cao Cao's face turned blue with fright.Guan Yu's target is obviously Yingchuan, this knife stabbed the key point, as soon as Yingchuan was lost, Cao Cao's territory was torn open, and Cao Junjun's heart was unstable.There is also fatal news that Lu Bu has captured Hanzhong and cleaned up Han Sui, and Chen Gongzheng is leading a large number of men and horses to Luoyang.Cao Cao almost burst into tears, Luoyang already had tens of thousands of Lu troops, Chen Gong brought so many troops over, it was not obvious to take the opportunity to take advantage Once the battle situation in Guandu was unfavorable, Chen Gong would not hesitate to attack Chen Liucheng, and then Guan Yu waved his army north in Yingchuan, directly forcing Guandu, and ten Cao Cao was going to die.Cao Cao was in a hurry, and the soldiers outside the door came in and reported: "Yuan Shao came to a person over there, saying that he wanted to meet the lord" Cao Cao asked: "Who is it" The soldiers said: "Xu You" Cao Cao's eyes lit up, and he was immediately overjoyed: "That's a top military division, please hurry up."
Oh no, I'll go out and meet you personally. ”After speaking, Cao Cao forgot to put on his shoes, and trotted out all the way to meet Xu You
