Chapter 1668: The Battle of Xuzhou (264)
In the battle of Xuzhou, Cao Cao always knew that he was not enough to defeat Liu Lan, so he had to be led by Yuan Shao and rely on his old friends to win the final victory, but after all these years of confrontation, he saw the problem, or Guo Jia had already said that these problems were just not taken seriously by him.
In the three battles of Xuzhou, Cao Cao appeared in the first battle to make peace, saying that it was out of carelessness, and it was better to persuade the three forces to retreat in the name of the Son of Heaven than to say that he used this name to protect Lu Bu, who completely turned his face with Liu Lan, at that time Lu Bu was an enemy, but with the change of the situation, under the circumstances at that time, Lu Bu was more likely to become a friend.
But by the second and third battles of Xuzhou, everything changed, and Cao's army even included Yuan Shao, but why it failed to achieve results, to put it bluntly, there is only one reason, that is, because of Yuan Shao, at that time, Yuan Shao's purpose was very clear, that is, to take Qingzhou, but because of the commander's mistakes, the success fell short, but at this time, Guo Jia's worries did not happen, so Cao Cao naturally ignored his early worries.
But in the third battle of Xuzhou, especially after the surrender of Qingzhou, everything found a change, and Liu Lan's combat intentions began to become blurred, it is precisely because of this premise that Yuan Shao and his masterminds made huge mistakes in strategy formulation, why do you say so, the simplest reason, Yuan Shao has a debate between going south to Yanzhou and going south to Xuzhou.
And because of this, Yan Liang finally died on the battlefield, and even changed the situation of the entire war for a time, at this time, he suddenly reacted, Guo Jia's worry happened early in the morning, and at this time he could only find the door to persuade Yuan Shao, because he knew very well that the battle of Xuzhou was inseparable from Yuan Shao, and if he wanted to win, he must rely on Yuan Shao.
And after the loss of Yan Liang, Yuan Shao must also be an example in the face of huge pressure, it is under this premise that Yuan Shao really transferred the main force south and sent it to Xuzhou, Yuan Shao finally made the final choice between Yanzhou and Xuzhou in the south, and once again chose to unite with them, and the capture of Xuzhou has been unstoppable, regardless of whether Liu Lan should fight or not, Xuzhou will inevitably not be guaranteed, in other words, at this time, even if Liu Lan dares to fight, he will only be defeated, so this is the reason why Liu Lan took the initiative to retreat.
These words, Guo Jia has analyzed, Cao Cao's answer at that time was only three words, I know, after all, all this was too far away under the premise at that time, Cao Cao may have considered it at that time, but it is still necessary to formulate a more reasonable deployment according to the development of the war situation, but Liu Lan really retreated without fighting.
Liu Lan's choice, Cao Cao must admit it, even if he doesn't say it, but he has always said a sentence in his heart, that is, his choice to retreat is the most reasonable and correct choice, otherwise they will definitely let Liu Lan fail miserably in Xuzhou City, and after defeating him, then Guan Yu will not have the strength to resist.
Guo Jia came here not just to say something about contacting the Xuzhou clan and making Liu Lan mess up, because the reality has been defeated in front of him, or his strategy with Yuan Shao has been very clear, that is, to fight for Xuzhou, so his alliance with Yuan Shao is the key to defeating Liu Lan, but what about after defeating Liu Lan?
In fact, Guo Jia heard some news recently, which was not very beneficial to them, that is, the capture of Xuzhou was to appease the people of Xuzhou, although Li Dian carried out a massacre of the people, but this was undoubtedly regarded as a deterrent to the counties of Xuzhou, after all, Cao Cao has now seized the opportunity.
And the reason for the situation this time is actually because of the seizure of Xuzhou, although this is also rumored that Cao Cao seized Xuzhou in order to occupy Xuzhou City after repelling Liu Lan, that is to say, Yuan Shao's troops made contributions, and they came to pick the fruits of victory, after all, Gao Ran occupied Pengcheng, although it is also the second largest metropolis in Xuzhou, but if Xuzhou City is occupied by Cao Cao, then what is the point of them getting Pengcheng?
"This is a premeditated attempt to sow discord." Cao Cao directly set the tone for this matter, but just like Guo Jia's answer, they couldn't find the source of the information, and even if they investigated, it was difficult to find the truth.
"I think it shouldn't be a person from Jizhou, at this time, the people of Jizhou will not say this kind of thing even if it is clear, which will only put both sides in passivity, so I think Jizhou will not take risks with such a thing, and some of our internal people and Liu Lan are difficult to distinguish, but from the perspective of who is beneficial to this matter, Liu Lan is the biggest, or at this time, it can only be said to Liu Lan It is in our best interests, after all, we are at war with him, To him, the contradictions are still only concentrated in one point, but involving other people, no matter what the truth is, may make our situation embarrassing, and even lead to the destruction of the Battle of Xuzhou, but cheapen others. ”
