Chapter 417

Cao Cao, who had conquered a million yellow turban army, was very powerful. After a great mobilization, Xia Houdun, Cao Cao's most trusted clan general, led 20000 troops to invade Langya county. Zhuge Xuan, the prefect of Langya County, naturally led troops to resist.

Cheng Yu, who was in the army of XiahouDun, couldn't wait to show his wisdom. Therefore, after Zhuge Xuan led his troops to the battle, he suggested that XiahouDun not stand still, but sent two partial divisions to Yangdu and Dong'an, respectively, led by Duwei in the army.

When Zhuge Xuan learned of the news, he personally led the army to rescue Yang'an, which was close to the distance. After Xia Houdun got the news about the horse hunting in the army, he immediately led the 15000 troops to Yangdu. When Zhuge Xuan found out, he was already surrounded by heavy encirclement.

Xia Hou Dun's army was full of long su. The so-called mourning army must win. Dian Wei and Le Jin were the first strong generals. Under the impact of Zhuge Xuan's army from all sides, Zhuge Xuan's whole army was defeated for a moment and a half, and Zhuge Xuan retreated seriously.

Xia Houdun got the seal of the prefect of Langya County left by Zhuge Xuan, and Cheng Yu tried to transfer the remaining soldiers of Dong'an, Kaiyang and Yangdu to the valley of Sanchuan, and then besieged and defeated the six thousand garrisons of Langya county.

Several cities in Langya county were in vain. XiahouDun immediately captured the counties, and then slaughtered all the more than 10000 people in the city with blood and pickled them into human breasts, and declared Xuzhou. If Xiancheng surrendered, he would not be responsible for the past. If he resisted in a desperate position, all the counties would be slaughtered!

In Kaiyang and Dong'an, the soldiers and civilians were scared out of their wits and rushed to surrender to the city, while the Yangdu city was desperate to resist. In a fury, Xia Houdun led the army to attack the city himself. Lejin took off his helmet and mounted the city with a spear in his hand. However, he broke the Yangdu city in half a day. Xia Houdun did not break his promise and killed all the more than 16000 people in the city.

It turned out that Cao Jun was not joking... For a moment, the whole Xuzhou was in a panic, and Tao Qian knew what kind of mistakes he had made.

"This time, it is my fault that I did not use the right person. Unfortunately, it implicated millions of soldiers and civilians in Xuzhou. What a pain?" Tao Qian said bitterly.

"Zizhong, princes, you want to tie yourself up and go to Cao's camp to plead guilty. Although Cao Cao slaughtered the people, he could still be saved as long as he was willing to surrender to the city. What do you think?" Tao Qian asked.

"My Lord, never!" Cao Bao stepped forward: "Cao Cao conquered the millions of yellow turban thieves in Qingzhou. Today, it can be said that the army is strong and strong. If such ambitious people are allowed to occupy Xuzhou, the world will be harmed by them. Moreover, Danyang soldiers are always good at fighting, and they will be willing to lead the army to fight with XiahouDun in the end!"

Cao Bao was a scholar of Xuzhou and an old helper of Tao Qian. He was in command of the most elite 20000 Danyang soldiers in Xuzhou. The Danyang soldiers were brave and good at fighting, and they were famous all over the world. Although Cao Bao's command level was not so good, but relying on Danyang elite soldiers, he had few failures.

Although Cao Bao was a family five hundred years ago, he was a member of the family of Xuzhou. Tao Qian was old and weak, so he had to rely on Cao Bao. If the tyrannical and powerful Cao Cao came to Xuzhou, Cao Bao was afraid that he would lose a large part of his power, so he was determined not to.

Tao Qian took a look at Cao Bao, but with a helpless smile: "general Cao, if you are brave again, can you compare with the one million yellow scarf thieves in Qingzhou?"

"Tao Lingjun." Mi Zhu said calmly: "although Cao's army is good at fighting, it is just the saying that Cao Cao will not fight because of his anger. Cao Cao's attack on Xuzhou for his personal gratitude and resentment has attracted all the princes in the world. Cao Cao dared to slaughter the city. We can imagine what would happen to the people of Xuzhou when they fell into the hands of Cao Cao. Moreover, the defeat of Zhuge Xuan shows that as long as our army does not fight against Cao's army, but sticks to the city, it may not be defeated! "

Tao Qian nodded: "do you mean that our army can't hold out until Cao's spirit is exhausted and will withdraw automatically?"

With MI Zhu's remarks, Tao Qian paid more and more attention to this rich and big businessman.

"Yes." "In addition, all the princes in the world must have a just division, which our army can seek."

"Oh? Where are they? " Tao Qian said curiously.

"One is Liu Ye of Luoyang. Liu Ye is a general of the imperial court's chariots and horses. He supports 100000 soldiers and breaks the Yellow scarves. He sets down Liangzhou, conquers Xiongnu, and defeats Xu and millions of people. Cao Cao fights against the imperial state and county for personal gratitude and resentment. If you ask Liu Qiqi to mediate, he will surely achieve remarkable results. "

Cao Bao sneered: "it's said that Liu Ye and Cao Cao were old friends when they attacked Huangjin. Besides, Liu Ye was out of reach. Would he do it?" Tao Qian nodded anxiously. Cao Cao and Liu Ye were very close to each other, so when Qingzhou Huangjin was constantly reinforcing Yanzhou, Liu Ye wrote to Cao Cao to block the passage of Qingzhou yellow scarf. The friendship between the two can be seen.

Mi Zhu shook his head: "looking at Liu Ye's style, we can see that what Liu Ye yearns for is to become a resurgent man like emperor Tongguang. Cao Cao's annexation of Xuzhou has made his ambition clear. With Liu Ye's insight, it is not possible to separate public from private."

"What else?" Tao Qian asked.

"In Runan Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao brothers fought, and Cao Cao was Yuan Shao's pawn. If he occupied Xuzhou, the strength of Yuan Shao's camp would be greatly increased. As the saying goes, the so-called ebb and flow, Yuan Shu naturally did not like to see Cao Cao annex Xuzhou." Mi Zhu said slowly, "but Yuan Shu didn't see the rabbit and didn't scatter the eagle. He was afraid that he needed to pay a lot of gifts. The emperor could send grain, grass and stone to invite him to send troops.""There is also Liu Bei, the Prime Minister of the plain. I heard that he was always benevolent and ambitious, but he lived in the plain. Liu Bei was under the command of Gongsun Zan, while the plain was under the rule of Cao Cao. Cao Cao must have eliminated Liu Bei sooner or later. In his letter, Tao Xiangjun could have made it clear to Liu Bei and promised to use a city in Xuzhou for his Garrison. Presumably Liu Bei would resist. Then general Guan Zhang Er, under Liu Bei's command, heard that he was very brave, and he must be able to stop the front of Dun's troops of Xiahou. "

"Good." Tao Qian took a reassurance: "in this case, I don't know who to send for help?"

"If you don't give up, Qian is familiar with the roads of Qingzhou and would like to go to the plain."

Tao Qian's eyes were fixed on it. The speaker was Sun Qian. He was originally from Beihai, Qingzhou. He was recommended to Tao Qian by Zheng Xuan, a great scholar in the world.

"Well, please go to the plain with Gongyou, but Qingzhou is under the jurisdiction of Cao Cao, but you can't make a big fuss about it." Tao Qian looked at Cao Bao: "general Cao, you send more than ten Danyang soldiers to escort Gongyou."

"No Cao Bao nods.

"A younger brother Mi Fang, who is familiar with the art of negotiation, can order Mi Fang to go to Runan to negotiate with Yuan Shu." Mi Zhu Road.

"OK, I'll hire my son to work for Xuzhou."

"As for Luoyang, Zhu Bucai is willing to go to see Liu Qiqi in person."
