: Many soldiers can do whatever they want

There are many smart people in the hall. The wonderful things that Xun Yu can think of, Xun You, Guo Jia, Jia Xu and others can think of, and Wang Lang, all stood up to compliment.

Cao Cao was drunk at this time and heard the ministers praising him as if he was so excited that he ordered the waiter to get paper and pen on the spot. He was going to write an impromptu poem in front of everyone and express his feelings.

The waiter was ordered to leave the hall to prepare, and Cao Cao immediately lowered his head to serve the wine.

At this moment, another waiter hurriedly walked towards him, holding a small bag containing a silk book in his hand.

Cao Cao looked up and saw the person coming, his face full of surprises.

"Ah, your movements are very fast, but where is the pen and ink I want?"

"pen and ink?"

The waiter was robbed when he reported the news. He dared to continue until the boss finished speaking. He was confused when he heard Bi Mo, but he quickly replied: "Sikong, this is the urgent report from the Prefect Li of Runan."

"Oh? Come on."

Cao Cao was stunned when he heard the words Runan and immediately signaled the guards beside him to take it.

After a while, Cao Cao's eyes were blurred and he opened the silk book to read it.

He looked at it and felt something was wrong, so he shook his head to wake him up, and then his face quickly became stiff. Today's good mood ended here.

With a snap.

Cao Cao re-painted the silk book on the table and cursed sternly: "Cai Yang is useless, Liu Bei is a common man!"

When everyone heard that it was broken, Cao Sikong was so angry that something must have happened to Runan.

Xun Yu, who was in the top position, then stood up, bowed his hands and asked in a low voice: "Ming Gong, Runan is the case."

Cao Cao gritted his teeth: "Cai Yang was attacked and his 5,000 troops were wiped out. How long has Liu Bei been in charge? He did such a big thing, and will it be better to continue this long?"

Xun Yu was afraid that Cao Cao would get drunk and read it wrong, so he asked carefully: "Is the information correct?"

"Send it to Xun Lingjun."

Cao Cao grabbed the silk book and raised it, signaling the guard to hand it to Xun Yu.

At the same time, General Cao Ren stood up and fisted and volunteered: "Lord, don't be angry. Liu Bei is the last defeated general. I am willing to lead the army to Runan again to suppress the rebellion."

"Zi Xiao sat down first, this matter is not that simple."

Cao Cao waved to Cao Ren and then asked Xun Yu: "How is it? Am I not drunk, am I?"

Xun Yu nodded and responded: "Cai Yang took away those five thousand soldiers, neither military farming or new recruits, but the defenders outside Xudu. Liu Bei could completely wipe out his battle, so he really couldn't take it lightly. Moreover, Liu Bei did not send troops to Yingchuan, so he really didn't know what he wanted to do."

"I suspect that there are experts to give advice, otherwise it would not be so elusive. Liu Bei has always had great ambitions and could not allow him to stay in Runan for a long time, so I plan to conquer himself."

"The soldiers have just returned from the expedition. When will the Ming Gong set out?"

"Immediately, the army will set off in Keri."

Seeing that Cao Cao was so anxious, Xun Yu thought that he would not be able to calm down in the past few days. He was busy dispatching food and grass for the army.

During the break between the two of them, Xun You asked: "The rebellion of Changba in Donghai has not been quelled. Which general is Ming Duke planning to send to the expedition? If he ignores it for a long time, he may lose the prestige of the court."

Cao Cao pinched his nose: "The siege of Shouchun has just been lifted. I wanted to let Miaocai go. Wenyuan went there and Liu Zihe and Yuan Rang were stationed, but Liu Bei did this."

"What do you have to do with Liu Bei?"

After saying that, Xun You looked at Xun Yu in confusion, as if he was saying that Shouchun was so far away from Runan, that Ming Gong would not have transferred them to encircle and suppress them, right? This situation seemed to be a little too big.

Cao Cao knocked on the table and replied in a deep voice: "Liu Bei, a hero. Now he has the help of a master, which is a big problem. If he is not eliminated in time, how can he concentrate on dealing with Yuan Shao in the future? Li Wenda (Li Tong) blocked the western part of Runan. I personally led a large army to defeat him, and then let Zihe (Cao Chun) lead the tiger and leopard cavalry to block the south. Hum, see how he escaped from Runan at that time."

When Xun You saw Cao Cao having a murderous intention, he bowed and sat back to his original position. Although he thought that this would mobilize many troops, Liu Bei's performance deserves attention.

Seeing that Xun's uncle and nephew had nothing to say, Guo Jia stood up and agreed to Cao Cao: "Ming Gong said so much. Liu Bei is really tenacious. He has lost many times over the years. He can still make trouble. He can only completely wipe out like Lu Bu. The rear can only make a breakthrough once and for all."

"Um."

Cao Cao gave Guo Jia an admiring look, then stood up at his desk, and said to the ministers in the palace with vain eyes: "I suddenly feel a little tired. The dukes stayed and continued to enjoy their lives. The troops were sent to Runan in three days."

"only."

The ministers in the hall stood up at the same time to salute, and the Lord was not there and they had no interest in having a banquet.

The generals left home for half a year, and Cao Cao only gave him three days to rest. They wanted to accompany their wives, children and their families as soon as possible.

In addition to preparing food and grass for the army, the civil servant group headed by Xun Yu also had to deal with the establishment of a county for Chen Dengxin, and submitted a letter to Zhou Yu, the prefect of Guangling, and the pension of the fallen officers and soldiers.

Three days later, Cao Cao personally led a 50,000 army out of Xudu and headed straight for Pingyu where Liu Bei was.

Liu Bei set up a suspicious formation in Runan. Cao Cao was not worried about the number of troops on the other side. He thought that he could wipe out 5,000 Cai Yang's 5,000 people, so he directly ordered 50,000 people.

Cao Cao's 50,000 elite troops were advantageous against Yuan Shao's 100,000. This not only demonstrated his importance to Liu Bei, but also clearly demonstrated Cao Cao's attitude.

Liu Bei, you bullied my people, Cao Cao, obviously bullied you. If you have more soldiers, you can do whatever you want.

As the saying goes, the fire flows in July, and the clothes are given in September.

The weather in September has turned colder, which is a good solar term for fighting, but this suitable season is very short. Cao Cao led 50,000 people south, and he also had the intention of a quick battle.

The army was in a mighty way. As soon as it arrived in Yanxian in southern Yingchuan, it was discovered by Liu Bei's exploration of horses.

The journey from Xudu to Pingyu is flat. According to Yanxian, which is not the closest route, the journey to Zhaoling in the north of Runan is the shortest, but the disadvantage is that there is no river to transport supplies, so Yanxian, upstream of the Rushui River in the west, is the gathering place chosen by Cao Cao.

If there is no waterway for the 50,000 army, tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of people will be conscripted, which will undoubtedly add to the severe Central Plains, where the corvee service is heavy.

Cao Cao mobilized all his troops to Pingyu. He saw the city's head full of flags from afar. He mistakenly thought that Liu Bei wanted to follow Lu Bu to defend himself, so he sent Cao Ren to come forward and ask Liu Bei to answer, preparing to mock him in public and then attack the city.

Cao Ren was ordered to go to the city to shout, and Liu Bei had already led his army to the west at this time, leaving Liu Pi to bluff in Pingyu.

"Cao Ren, stop calling. You have fallen into the plan of the envoy. He led his troops south two days ago and is no longer in Pingyu at this time."

"Liu Pi?" Cao Ren couldn't help but shout angrily when he saw Liu Pi's contemptuous expression: "You are my defeated general, how dare you ramble here?"

Liu Pi glanced at Cao Ren, and Feng Qingyuntan asked, "So what? Can you change the fact that you were trapped?"

Cao Ren retorted: "Liu Bei has run away, why are you staying here? Are you waiting to die?"

"I won't be in charge of Pingyu, will you come here later?" Liu Pi met tit.

Cao Ren snorted coldly: "Liu Bei wants to escape to Huainan? Humph, Shouchun garrison is also rushing towards Pingyu, and he has no way to escape this time."

"There is no way to escape? I heard that Shouchun has less than 10,000 troops. Is there three thousand or five thousand this time?"

Liu Pi looked at Cao Ren and smiled contemptuously: "To be honest, the envoy currently has 20,000 or 30,000 troops. Is Shouchun's garrison here to seek death?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
