Chapter 289: If you can use your mouth, you don't need your fists
Luo Gan and Cao Cao teamed up to defeat the Yellow Turban, and the young general with the highest force in the Yellow Turban Army was also picked by Luo Gan with a shot, but Geng Ling, the commander of the Yellow Turban, fled. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
This made Luo Gan feel a little weird, he originally thought that after the Dong Alliance, he would not have a chance to join forces with Cao Cao. But now that they have joined forces to deal with the Yellow Turban, it really makes Luo Gan sigh that the world is impermanent, and everything will not come according to his own intentions.
However, the battlefield is still very delicate now, although the Yanzhou Army and the Qingzhou Army joined forces to defeat the Yellow Turbans, and then they tacitly divided those Yellow Turbans to surrender the prisoners. But they are wary of each other, and even if they don't do it now, they don't regard each other as friends.
Then the two armies took their prisoners to the rear, and the two armies split up again. The Qingzhou Army and the Yanzhou Army are opposite, and the distance is about a mile.
Luo Gan drove his horse forward, followed by his generals, Li Kui and Xiang Chong on the left, Bao Xu and Li Gon on the right, and the five of them moved forward. Behind him was the Qingzhou army of about 8,000.
On the opposite side, Cao Cao also drove his horse forward, and behind him were also four generals, Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Yuan, Le Jin, and Cao Hong. Behind him was the Yanzhou army, which numbered more than 20,000 people.
Luo Gan and Cao Cao each entered a little, and the two sides kept a safe distance.
If Luo Gan made a move against Cao Cao, Xiahoudun and others would have time to come out to the rescue. Similarly, if Xiahou Yuan made a move, Li Kui and the others would have time to block it, and everyone tacitly agreed that they did not bring long-range attack weapons such as bows and arrows. And the two were not within the range of the bows and arrows of the army behind them.
Facing Cao Cao, Luo Gan felt complicated. From a bystander, from a later generation, he himself still admires Cao Cao. But now he is no longer a spectator of history, but one of the creators of history.
Then Cao Cao in front of him may be an opponent on his road to Luo Gan's hegemony in the future, and Luo Gan very much wants to kill Cao Cao now.
However, some are not realistic, it is good that he is not killed by Cao Cao.
Luo Gan and Cao Cao looked at each other for a while, and finally Cao Cao was the first to speak: "Feiyu, are you here to rob me of Yanzhou or to deal with the Yellow Turban!" ”
Luo Gan chuckled, didn't want to turn his face now, and arched his hand to Cao Cao and said, "Brother Meng De has seen him, haha, Brother Meng De said he was laughing." Naturally, he helped Brother Meng De deal with the Yellow Turban. This yellow turban will stir up the world and everyone is not at peace, I am equivalent to the assassin appointed by the imperial court, so I naturally want to work together to punish the yellow turban thieves and protect the stability of the people in the world. ”
Cao Cao is much older than Luo Gan, and Luo Gan calls Cao Cao his brother.
Cao Cao haha, but he stretched out his hand and pointed at Luo Gan and said: "This is the boundary of Yanzhou, not Qingzhou, and the non-fish has crossed the border, and I hope you will withdraw from the boundary of Yanzhou as soon as possible." ”
Luo Gan nodded and said, "Haha, Brother Cao, forgive me, I didn't want to encroach on other people's states and counties, but I really came for this yellow scarf." These yellow scarves have been in turmoil since I was in Qingzhou, and as the history of Qingzhou, I naturally have the responsibility to bring these Qingzhou people back to Qingzhou. ”
Luo Gan is just nonsense, but it also shows his attitude. His target is those yellow scarves, and it is also to show that he does not intend to touch the land of Yanzhou.
Cao Cao glanced at Luo Gan and said solemnly: "It is reported that your subordinates have captured Taishan County!" Now that this yellow turban has been defeated, I hope you will immediately lead people to withdraw from Taishan County and withdraw from Yanzhou. so as not to hurt the harmony of the two families. ”
The problem still has to be solved after all, and we can't just talk nonsense here and continue to negotiate here stupidly.
Cao Cao directly threatened Luo Gan: "If you don't return Taishan County and withdraw your troops from Yanzhou, then don't blame me Cao Cao for being unsympathetic." ”
Luo Gan saw that Cao Cao seemed to have lost patience and threatened him repeatedly. Moreover, there are more than 20,000 people on Cao Cao's side, and there are not even 10,000 soldiers on his side, so he doesn't dare to resist Cao Cao.
"Brother Cao, I promised that I would immediately withdraw from Yanzhou, and Taishan County could be returned to Brother Cao. However, I need to hand over the captive yellow scarf to me and bring it back to Qingzhou, and I ask Brother Cao not to be embarrassed. "Luo Gan's original purpose was just to plunder the yellow scarf.
So Luo Gan wanted to exchange Taishan County for Cao Cao to hand over the yellow scarf to Luo Gan.
Cao Cao was also interested in the yellow scarf, after all, among the hundreds of thousands of yellow scarves, he could choose a lot of strong ones. Originally, this army was recruited from the people, and the strong ones in this yellow turban had also been on the battlefield, so it was relatively more suitable for forming an army.
Cao Cao shook his head and said: "The people in Yanzhou should be governed by Yanzhou Mu, not fish, now our army is stronger than you." If you really want the two armies to fight, I'm afraid you are not an opponent! ”
Cao Cao had the advantage, and the capital that Luo Gan was able to negotiate with him was that Taishan County in Yanzhou had now fallen into Guan Sheng's hands.
At that time, Luo Gan led 20,000 people from the Qi State in Qingzhou to Yanzhou. He ordered Guan Sheng to lead 5,000 troops to attack Taishan County, and he led 15,000 troops to Jibeiguo.
Speaking of which, Taishan County has been harassed by Taishan thieves before, when Taishan thieves came rampantly to rob the passing Beihai Xiang Kongrong, and was later defeated by Luo Gan.
In this Qingzhou Yellow Turban Riot, Taishan County in Yanzhou was also one of the main targets of the Yellow Turbans.
The Taishan County Taishou is a native of Runan, and his father used to be the captain of the school. He himself was very famous when he was a teenager, and he was particularly interested in etiquette. also has some strategies, and was once recruited by He Miao, the general of the chariot cavalry.
This time during the invasion of the Yellow Turbans, Ying Shao finally did not nest in the Taishou Mansion and did not come out, but led the officers and soldiers of the whole county to desperately resist the Yellow Turbans. He fought with the Yellow Turbans many times, beheaded thousands, and captured more than 10,000 Yellow Turbans, but defeated the Yellow Turbans in Taishan County.
However, Guan Sheng led 5,000 elite soldiers, fighting the imperial court's soldiers and horses, making Ying Shao lose his vigilance, and then launched a surprise attack.
This Ying Shao had just led the officers and soldiers of the county to fight against the Yellow Turbans, and although he won, he also suffered huge losses. In the face of Guan Sheng's sudden attack, he couldn't stop it at all, so he surrendered the city.
This Taishan County was too guarded to surrender, and the county orders of all counties in Taishan were naturally soon under the threat of Guan Sheng's army, with the support of Ying Shao, all of them surrendered to Guan Sheng, and Taishan County fell into the hands of Luo Gan.
Therefore, Luo Gan was able to use Taishan County to negotiate with Cao Cao.
Luo Gan said: "Brother Cao handed over all the Yellow Turban captives to Zaixia, and Qianqian immediately led the army to Qingzhou. ”
However, in fact, Luo Gan neither wanted to give up Taishan County, but also wanted to pack and take the yellow scarf away, but how could there be so many good things for Luo Gan to occupy.
And Cao Cao is even more unhappy with Luo Gan, he currently occupies the advantage of troops on the battlefield, and the reason why he is willing to talk to Luo Gan instead of doing it directly. Although this battle is to solve most of the main forces of the Yellow Turbans, the real base camp of the Yellow Turbans is not here. There are also tens of thousands of yellow scarves that are strong, and hundreds of thousands of family members of the people who are wrapped in yellow scarves are not here.
If you fight a decisive battle with the Qingzhou army, even if you win, you will lose and not kill, and you will get the yellow turban cheap.
In addition, Cao Cao got the information, Guan Sheng also led thousands of people into the northern country of Jibei, and now it is not far from the battlefield. There is also an army of 5,000 people under Luo Gan who is missing, which is also what makes Cao Cao scruples.
Cao Cao looked carefully and found that among the several generals behind Luo Gan, there were no Guan Sheng, Guan Ling, and Yun Tianbiao who had seen before in the Tiger Prison Pass.
The three of them were still very easy to identify with their bare faces and long haired hands holding the Green Dragon Glaive Knife, but they didn't see it, so Cao Cao couldn't help but pay other attention.
Cao Cao suddenly smiled and said: "Luo Qingzhou, your fierce generals before the Tiger Prison Pass are in the limelight, not like this." Today, you and I will fight, and there will be three generals on each side. If you win, you can take the yellow scarf with you. If I win, I will ask you to return Taishan County, how about it? Otherwise, the two armies will go to war. ”
Luo Gan was a little speechless, he had a lot of fierce generals under him before, but he was not afraid of fighting generals. But now it is very embarrassing to find that the highest force on his side is himself!
If you lose, you don't lose the battle, you can fight, as long as Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan don't fight, you may not have a chance to add Li Kui.
War!
