Chapter 119 Guandu Victory

In Guandu, Cao Cao welcomed his greatest nobleman, Xu You!

Under Xu You's guidance, he also learned about Yuan Shao's food storage. Cao Cao personally led 5,000 elite cavalry to bypass Yuan Shao's army to cross the river. Coincidentally, Yuan Shao waited for the river that had not frozen for nearly a month. After Cao Cao arrived on the bank of the Yellow River, he was frozen for thousands of miles overnight. The ice surface was extremely solid, so that the cavalry could gallop without cracking, allowing Cao Cao to cross the river smoothly without Yuan Shao's awareness.

Unexpectedly, and the general Chunyu Qiong who stayed in Wuchao, Yuan Shao was drunk, and there was almost no suspense in the battle of Wuchao. As soon as the fire broke out, Yuan's army was suddenly attacked and rushed to the ground. However, Cao's army was brave and diligent under Cao Cao's leadership. Xu Chu killed Chunyu Qiong in the formation, and five thousand elite cavalry broke through 20,000 defenders. The fire in Wuchao was difficult to contain, so Cao Cao immediately led his troops back to Guandu.

It is also magical. After Cao Cao returned to the south bank of the Great River, the frozen rock-solid river surface began to thaw slowly. When Yuan Shao learned that Wuchao was destroyed and wanted to rescue, he could not cross the river. He used Guo Tu's plan to rob Cao's army camp, but Cao Cao, who had returned, led his army to fight and was defeated.

The Wuchao fire broke out, Yuan Shao lost food, and the people were dispersed. On the other hand, the morale of Cao's army increased sharply. After winning consecutive battles in the next few days, almost knocking Yuan Shao to the river. However, Yuan's army on the north bank saw that there was no food and grass, but had already dispersed. When Yuan Shao finally escaped back to the north bank, the vast army of millions was only tens of thousands of remaining soldiers around him.

Of course, there are also the soldiers on the front line of Mengjin Heluo and the soldiers in Qingzhou. But even so, this battle was the most depressing battle in Yuan Shao's life. Looking at the Cao army shouting on the other side, Yuan Shao vomited blood and fell into a coma, and was protected by his subordinates to retreat to Yecheng.

"Huh~"

Looking at Yuan Jun retreating on the other side, Cao Cao finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the ground, the entire junior was wet.

"Lord!" Xu Chu and Xiahou Yuan, who were beside him, thought Cao Cao was injured, were startled and rushed forward to support him.

"Nothing is wrong." Cao Cao waved his hand, but he couldn't get up for a long time. His tense nerves over the past few days finally relaxed as he turned defeat into victory. His strength seemed to have flowed away. After a long time, Cao Cao, who was sitting on the ground, suddenly smiled without any image: "We won! Haha~"

This battle is really not easy. Apart from this last battle, he was almost defeated by Yuan Shao from beginning to end.

"This is the Lord of Heaven. When we rode our horses to the bank of the river last night, the river water had not frozen yet. Just when we were about to force the river water, the river water was frozen by itself. After we came back to cross the river, it quickly cut open. Do you think this is the God bless?" Xu Chu held his big sword and happily told everyone about the wonders they saw last night. This is really God bless.

However...is it really God bless?

Thinking of the gods in the Battle of Xuzhou, Cao Cao sighed, it was also considered Tianyou, because Tian wanted to win this battle, just like when Tian wanted to defeat Lu Bu in the Battle of Xuzhou, it was a pity that Yuan Shao was not Lu Bu and could not resist Tiande, and he... was actually part of being tricked by Tiande.

The smile on Cao Cao's face disappeared as he smiled.

"Let's go, there are still many things to do. After this battle, food and grass should not be a problem." Most of the joy of victory disappeared. When Cao Cao stood up, he returned to his calmness. Looking at the bloody warriors around him, Cao Cao didn't want them to feel the helplessness, so he could only force his smile. Next, he would swallow the four states and then integrate the Central Plains!

"Here~" The generals didn't know why Cao Cao suddenly fell down, but no one dared to ask. After they agreed, they prepared to leave with Cao Cao.

"Report~" A young general came over and rushed to the front quickly, but was stopped by Xu Chu.

"What's the matter?" Cao Cao saw that the young general was covered in dust and had a blue face. It was obvious that he had arrived on a long journey. There should be something important. He asked someone to hand the water bag to the young general and asked.

"Thank you lord!" The young general said thanking, took the water bag and gulped for a while, and then said to Cao Cao: "On the 12th day of the first lunar month, Xu Huang led 50,000 Xuzhou soldiers from Pengcheng to capture Taishan County and forced Rencheng County. There were flying boats in Xu Huang's army that could fly, and the layout in the city could not escape the enemy's eyewitness. Xu Huang had occupied Taishan County, and General Zhu Ling was in a hurry."

Cao Cao's eyes twitched when he heard this. The thing he was most worried about was that Lu Bu actually stabbed him from behind at this time. The time was so accurate that Lu Bu seemed to be sure that he could win this battle. Even if he was attacked later, he would not be able to fight against Yuan Shao, but instead let Lu Bu go to deal with Yuan Shao, the northern overlord.

But now Lu Bu sends troops to steal the fruits obtained by Cao Cao's hard battle. How can Cao Cao not be angry?

But what can I do if I get angry? Lu Bu went to Jiangdong first. It was the time when Yuan and Cao fought. Cao Cao was unable to look east and occupied the entire Jiangdong area with lightning speed. At that time, Cao Cao was determined to stop him and could not turn the world back. He also had to rely on Lu Bu to share the pressure, so he sent someone to give gifts, hoping that Lu Bu would not do anything randomly.

Now Lu Bu is almost stepping on the battlefield, stepping on when Cao Cao has just defeated Yuan Shao and is exhausted. Even if Cao Cao turns around and fights, he will probably not be able to recover from defeating Yuan Shao.

Xu Huang is just a team of troops sent by Lu Bu. Do you have other troops? For example, Gao Shun's troops who were fighting against Yuan Shu?

Gao Shun is now in Runan. Once he attacks Yuan Shu, he can lead his army north to attack Yingchuan at any time.

"Hurry up, I will lead my troops to Yingchuan to defend Gao Shun!" After understanding this, Cao Cao quickly ordered, hoping to catch up.

"Lord, you can order someone to go to Nanyang to contact Liu Bei and ask Liu Bei to send troops to fight against the traitors!" Guo Jia, who was standing beside him, suddenly looked at Cao Cao and said in a deep voice.

Liu Bei was transferred from Xia Pi by Lu Bu in the name of the emperor's uncle and the position of the prefect of Nanyang, which made him defeat Mu Yun, and also laid the groundwork for the defeat of the Chen family. After Liu Bei entered Nanyang, he did not suppress others with his status, but instead formed famous scholars everywhere and showed kindness to the people, and received support from the scholars and the people. In addition, Nanyang has been in turmoil for a long time, and the people are seeking peace. After Guan Yu killed Nanyang's garrison Zhu Gai and incorporated Nanyang troops, he formed Liu Biao outside and cultivated politics inside. Liu Biao also supported Liu Bei quite well and gave a lot of support.

Originally, Liu Bei was a chess piece buried in Nanyang to restrain Cao Cao. Unfortunately, the times changed. Now Liu Bei's position can better support Yingchuan and block Lu Bu's possible attack. Of course, it is also possible to lead a wolf into the house. If Liu Bei enters Yingchuan, if he is not good, he will backfire himself. But now Lu Bu suddenly chose this node to attack, and obviously he had made up his mind to destroy Cao Cao first and then look for Yuan Shao.

Now Lu Bu already has Xuzhou and Yangzhou. If he gets the Central Plains, it will be Xuzhou, Yangzhou, Yuzhou and Yangzhou. One Qingzhou may be added. At that time, Lu Bu will be the number one prince in the world and will suppress Yuan Shao. At that time, Yuan Shao may join forces with the heroes to fight against Lu Bu.

But no matter what, the most dangerous thing now is Cao Cao and Liu Bei, an ally, need to unite. Otherwise, even if Cao Ren alone can arrive in time, he may not be able to stop Gao Shun.

Cao Cao was slightly stunned, then reacted and nodded, "What Fengxiao said is right... I ordered Changwen to go to Nanyang and persuade Liu Bei and us to join forces to attack Lu Bu!"

Someone went to send orders, but bad news came in a crowd. After the group returned to the camp, they collected news from Jiujiang. Lu Bu had already started secretly transferring Jiangdong troops to the south bank a month ago, and a large number of troops rushed into the Central Plains. In other words, Lu Bu has now launched another full-scale war, just like before attacking Jiangdong. This time, Lu Bu attacked Cao Cao's Yan and Yu prefectures.

"Xu Huang!" Xiahou Yuan cursed angrily and bowed to Cao Cao, "Lord, I am willing to lead the troops in person and I will definitely kill this traitor!"

Xu Huang was a general that Cao Cao valued very much at the time. Who would have thought that Xu Huang not only intervened Cao Cao's knife at the most critical moment and kidnapped the emperor, but now he still has the face to lead troops to attack himself. Not only Xiahou Yuan, but many generals who had a good relationship with Xu Huang at the time felt deeply betrayed. Xu Huang... must die!

Cao Cao shook his head expressionlessly and said, "I will go to welcome this battle in person!"

Not only because of Xu Huang, but more importantly, he must hold down Lu Bu's momentum, otherwise with the current situation, even if Lu Bu does not win in the end, his territory will probably shrink by half. From then on, the strength and weakness of him and Lu Bu will change hands.

"Lord, a strange-dressed boy came from outside the camp, and he was asking for a meeting outside the camp with two people who were not like humans, ghosts, and ghosts." Xu Chu came in from outside the camp and bowed to Cao Cao.

"Please." Cao Cao was not too surprised. Is the destiny? How could no one come to help him at this time?

Soon, a young man came in with a headband. Behind him were two strange things. One was as big as a jar, but his body was very small. If it was far away, at first glance, he thought there was a giant lying on his face, while the other was completely opposite. His head was normal, but his body was round, like a ball, and his limbs were almost invisible.

"Amitabha Buddha, the poor monk is the one who sits down by Guanyin Bodhisattva, Hui'an, commonly known as Li Muzha." The young man bowed to Cao Cao and said, "The Bodhisattva has calculated that the fortune of the Central Plains has changed, so he specially ordered Muzha to come to help."

"Bodhisattva?" The first thing that came to mind in Cao Cao, Guo Jia and others was Wei Hu, who was beaten to ashes by Lu Bu. He seemed to be a Bodhisattva.

All the same level were killed by Lu Bu. What kind of traveler can defeat Lu Bu?

Hui'an was not easy to argue when he heard this, so he could only nodded: "These two are monsters caught in the next world this time. The loud head sounds like an eagle crying, which can make people feel scattered. The larger body swallowed Tai Sui, which not only could swallow all things, but also kill them to death. With these two people helping him, he will definitely help Sikong with his arm."

"The practitioner will not walk with Cao?" Cao Cao said in surprise. It would be fine if the Bodhisattva did not come forward, but why would this practitioner not want to come forward?
