Chapter 53: The Battle of Guandu (5)

Cao Cao's decisiveness and cunning shocked Yuan Yun very much, and he said that he would raid Wuchao in five days, but the plan was two days ahead of schedule. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žfo

is really not tired of deceit, even if the news of the sneak attack on the black nest leaks, who would have thought that Cao Cao would launch it early?

On the evening of the second day of Cao Ang's arrival, Cao Cao suddenly gathered the whole army, and selected 5,000 of the strongest soldiers, pretending to use the banner of Yuan's army, and each carrying a bunch of firewood and grass, and taking advantage of the darkness of the night to take the path to attack the black nest.

At this time, Cao Ang had also figured out the terrain outside the camp, and planted a large number of mines in the forward position, all the mortars were lined up, and 20 gunpowder shells were distributed per person.

Tonight must be a hard battle, because the defense line is really a bit long, once it is broken open, it is likely to be rushed in by Yuan Shao's cavalry, and then detour to the rear, and then flank back and forth, so everyone in the camp is very nervous.

Even if Yuan Yun knew the result, his heart was still beating at the moment, after all, this was a big battle he had personally experienced, hundreds of thousands of people fought against each other, and it was definitely not comparable to a group of dozens of people.

Cao Cao led the army to leave for half an hour, Yuan Yun was restless in his camp tent, and suddenly saw a flash of inspiration, remembering tonight's battle, the final result was that the attacking Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran directly surrendered to Cao Cao, and finally caused Yuan Shaojun's heart to be in turmoil, stealing chickens and rice.

Thinking of this, Yuan Yun immediately stood up, and then hurriedly went to the front position.

Cao Ang was originally inspecting the defensive line on the position, and suddenly saw Yuan Yun's figure, but he was stunned, how could this cowardly guy come here?

With questions, Cao Ang ordered Yuan Yun to be brought to his side, and then asked, "Why are you in such a hurry, you have to come here in danger?" ”

Yuan Yun cautiously glanced at Yuan Shao's camp opposite, and then said: "It may be Zhang Jaw and Gao Lan who are coming to sneak attack tonight, these two are now at odds with Yuan Shao's subordinates, but they will definitely be recommended by those people to do this kind of deadly work, why didn't Brother Cao Ang persuade these two to surrender in the battle array?" ”

Cao Ang was taken aback and said eagerly: "Is this true? ”

Yuan Yun shrugged his shoulders and said: "I have only heard some of their deeds in the north, and I still know a little about Zhang Jaw, he was my defeated general before, with his temperament, he must have offended many people in the army, he must be the one who attacked the camp tonight, and he is living very unsatisfactory under Yuan Shao at the moment, and Brother Cao Ang can definitely use it." ”

Cao Ang was silent for a moment, and then immediately ordered someone to bring pen and ink, wrote a word in front of the position, turned around and said to the three personal soldiers beside him: "You changed into Yuan Shao's military uniform, sneaked into the front of the battle, and found Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran, and sent my handwritten letter." ”

The three soldiers immediately knelt down to take the letter, then made a promise, and disappeared from the position.

Cao Ang's eyes were full of anticrisy at the moment, and he grabbed Yuan Yun's shoulder and said: "If this matter can be done, Brother Yun will be a great achievement, recruiting these two people, Yuan Shao's army will immediately mutiny, if my father burns Yuan Shao's grain and grass again, I think he will not withdraw his troops, but the whole line will be defeated." ”

Yuan Yun smiled, looked nervously at the enemy camp in the night, instantly shuddered, arched his hand at Cao Ang, and prepared to retreat to his camp, even if it was summer now, but standing here also felt cold.

Cao Ang didn't stop it, he sent Yuan Yun back with a sneer, and kept sarcastically mocking Yuan Yun's cowardice with the people around him, which made all the sergeants constantly cast disdainful glances.

It seems that after Cao Ang got these news, his mood changed for the better, but why did he have to demean Lao Tzu? Damn, this Cao Ang Laozi must clean him up once, it's too annoying.

……

In Yuan Shao's camp, Zhang Jaw knelt on the ground in great panic, and whenever Guo Tu's vicious words came, his face would be blue and white.

Yuan Shao just listened coldly, and only after a long time did he frown, and shouted angrily: "Open your jaw, I, Yuan Shao, treat you well, this is the time when you need to serve your death, why are you so cowardly, not to mention retreating from battle, and fleeing back with all the headquarters, you can lose all my Yuan Shao's face if you flee like this, Cao Apu must be laughing at me Yuan Shao's absurdity now!" ”

Guo Tu smiled and continued: "Lord, I have always heard people say that they are ashamed and brave, but General Zhang Jaw has always only eaten defeats, and every time he is defeated very miserably, the halberd warrior can't beat Gongsun Zhan's white horse righteous servant in your hands, and the lord gave you 10,000 soldiers and horses to raid Xudu, you are good, before you see the city wall of Xudu, the whole army was defeated, and less than a thousand people came back, a few days ago, you let you attack Cao Ying at night, you just went to take a turn, and the whole army fled back, I really don't know why you are so cowardly?" ”

Zhang Jaw heard the green tendons jumping on the door of his head, and just wanted to refute, he was shouted by Yuan Shao: "You are so timid, how can you become a general in the army, count me Yuan Shao blind, and accept such a coward as you into the account......"

"The lord must not be moved, Zhang Jaw is a veteran in our army, it is impossible to be cowardly, and the last general Gao Ran can give him a guarantee." It was Gao Ran who spoke, and at this moment he had already taken a step forward and came to the middle of Yuan Shao's camp, standing firmly beside Zhang Jaw.

Guo Tu glanced at Gao Ran, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, and he looked a little angry, but he didn't say anything, after all, this Gao Ran was arrogant and short-tempered, and it was common to say that it was common to beat people, and provoking this kind of person was not like provoking Zhang Jaw, because Gao Ran would really jump out and kill your whole family.

Yuan Shao saw Gao Ran coming out of the ranks, so he suppressed his temper a little, and then pointed to his open jaw and said to Gao Ran: "Since General Gao Ran said that this person has the courage, he should come up with evidence, otherwise I would have to kill him tonight to vent my hatred!" ”

At this moment, a soldier covered in mud suddenly rushed in outside the camp, and as soon as he entered the tent, he knelt on the ground, and shouted loudly: "The lord is not good, Cao Cao led the troops to attack the black nest at night, just blocking General Chun Yuqiong, at this moment the two armies are facing each other, the lord please send troops to rescue quickly!" ”

Gao Ran was shocked, and immediately suggested: "The lord can send the last general and General Zhang Jaw to the rescue, as long as the cavalry is fast enough, you can cooperate with General Chun Yuqiong to flank Cao Cao before and after, if Cao Cao is captured, we can win a big victory in the battle of Guandu!" ”

Catch Cao Cao? I really want to give you the great merit of catching Cao Cao, I, Guo Tu, will be a fart in the future, and this jaw must die, otherwise how can his lady die?

"The lord must not be like this, now that Cao Cao has left the camp of the Chinese army, it is the time for us to launch a surprise attack." Guo Tu suggested.

Yuan Shao thought for a moment, but began to hesitate, feeling that both sides were opportunities, whether it was to capture Cao Cao or destroy Cao Ying, he could end the battle of Guandu, but it was a little difficult to choose from it.

Yuan Shao was born a severe patient with choice disorder, but whenever he encounters a choice, he will generally be entangled, and the time of struggle is still very long.

Guo Tu, as a person close to Yuan Shao, naturally knew about this problem of his lord, so he suggested again: "As long as Cao Ying is taken, even if Cao Cao captures Wuchao, there is no place to go back, so that we can not only catch Cao Cao, but also break through the enemy's camp, this is the best of both worlds, why should the lord hesitate?" ”

Yuan Shao thought about it, now it's okay, there is no need to choose, you can get benefits on both sides by capturing Cao Ying, this is the best way.

But as soon as Yuan Shao wanted to attack Cao Ying, he saw Zhang Jaw kneeling and taking a few steps forward, and then hugged his fists and said: "The lord must not attack Cao Ying, now the gunpowder army is in Cao Ying, those firearms are too powerful, we will definitely suffer heavy casualties if we rush forward like this, Lord be careful!" ”

Guo Tu sneered and said, "I also said that you are not timid with your open jaw, and Cao Jun's little obscene tricks scared you like this, what kind of system is this?" Where do you make the lord's face? ”

Yuan Shao looked at the appearance of Zhang Jaw, and suddenly his heart was extremely angry, and he shouted and scolded like thunder: "Such a great fighter, do you want to let it go because of your timidity, and the 200,000 soldiers of my whole army will follow you to escape?" ”

After drinking and scolding, Yuan Shao pointed to the left and right and said, "Someone!" Drag this coward down and decapitate it for me! ”

Gao Ran was taken aback, walked a few steps forward again to Zhang Jaw's side, hugged his fists and said: "Lord, the last general is willing to go to the raid Cao Ying, and he will definitely be able to take the enemy camp for the Lord Gong in one battle, since Zhang Jaw is afraid of death, it is better for me to escort him to the front of the battle, and promise not to let him take half a step back!" ”

Yuan Shao stomped his feet very angrily and said, "Very good! Escort this bastard to the front line, and if he dares to take half a step back, cut off his head for me, and I will hang it on the flagpole of the Chinese army, so that everyone will know the fate of cowardice! ”

Zhang Jaw wanted to admonish, but Gao Ran didn't give him a chance at all, and really dragged him out alive like escorting a prisoner.

Guo Tu is very proud at the moment, Yuan Shao used his strategy, then once he wins tonight, he will be a great achievement, and then slowly clean up his jaw, anyway, it is far away to return to Yecheng, and he can't kill him if he doesn't believe in playing.

Outside Yuan Shao's tent, Zhang Jaw shook off Gao Ran's big hand very angrily, and then said angrily: "General Gao is also a man, why would he agree to the strategy of the villain Guo Tu, do you know that if we attack Cao Ying, we will have to face those terrifying firearms, and our subordinates will inevitably suffer countless casualties, and you don't know the information of firearms." ”

Gao Lan sighed and said: "儁乂 (jΓΉnyΓ¬), if I don't agree to the scene just now, you will immediately fall to the ground, then Guo Tu is a celebrity next to the lord at the moment, we can only be patient for the time being, and Guo Tu is obviously targeting you tonight, my old servant just came here from Yecheng and said that your family ...... Well, let's not mention it now. ”

Zhang Jaw was stunned and said unhappily: "How can I say half of the words, what happened to my family?" ”

Gao Ran sighed deeply, but did not speak, but pulled his jaw and continued to walk, and only after walking a long way did he say: "Wait for us to lead the army out of the camp first, and I will talk to you in detail before we get to the battle." ”

Zhang Jaw was full of suspicion, but at this time, the military order had been issued, and he really couldn't delay, so he could only order the soldiers of the headquarters to assemble, and soon converged with Gao Lan's troops, and then galloped towards Cao Ying.

The clouds were very thick this night, so that even the moonlight could not penetrate, and the dark night road was very difficult to walk, so it was necessary to be very careful, but Zhang Jaw was full of doubts, and he had been thinking about what Gao Ran had just said, what happened to his home in Yecheng?

When he reached the front of the enemy's formation, Zhang Jaw finally couldn't bear it, and pulled Gao Ran and asked: "At this moment, once you are in front of the formation, once you launch a charge, in the face of those firearms, no one dares to say that you can live, General Gao, we are friends of life and death, don't hide anything if you have something to say." ”

Gao Ran sighed deeply, grabbed Zhangjaw's shoulder tightly and said, "I shouldn't have said this before I went out, but my sister-in-law died too miserably, and I always feel indebted to you if I don't say it." ”

Zhang Jaw glared and shouted, "What?!" ”

Gao Ran still held Zhang Jaw's shoulder tightly, afraid that he would launch a madness, and then continued: "My old servant said that he was attacked by thieves in the mansion in Yecheng, and the other party obviously went to his sister-in-law, but Mrs. was loyal, and saw that she couldn't escape the thieves' captivity, so she directly stabbed her lower abdomen, and the thief fled after panicking, but Mrs. Sister-in-law wrote a big character on the ground. ”

Zhang Jaw's eyes were bloodshot, and he asked word by word: "What kind of words are written?" ”

Gao Ran frowned, and resolutely replied: "Guo! ”

Zhang Jaw only felt that the sky was spinning, and he almost fell off the horse, but fortunately he was held by Gao Ran.

After a long time, Gao Lancai comforted: "As long as we achieve military merits tonight and become the greatest military meritorious, we can jointly impeach Guo Tu, this is the only way, brother, you have to cheer up, look at your sons, they have been coming with you from the north, you must be responsible for them." ”

Zhang Jaw subconsciously looked back at the soldiers behind his eyes, sighed in his mouth, and said sadly: "I am a hero in my life, but I don't want to fall into the fate of being bullied by dogs now, and my wife and children at home can't be saved, how unfair God treats me!" ”

After Zhang Jaw finished speaking, he looked at his own soldiers and subordinates again, but suddenly grabbed Gao Ran's shoulder with his backhand, and then shook his head and said: "Even if you and I combine the two soldiers and horses, it is still impossible to tear apart the defense line of those gunpowder troops, Guo Tu, this villain, did not send any soldiers and horses to protect our left and right wings at all, this time he was sent to death, didn't General Gao understand his intentions?" ”

Gao Ran was about to answer, but he heard a report from one of his soldiers, saying that he had caught three Cao Ying's fine works in front of the battle, but these three people repeatedly explained that they needed to see their two generals on important matters.
