I am the son of Cao thief, start the awakening of the tyrant system

Although since the outbreak of the war, Cao Jun and Yuan Jun have won and lost each other, but Yuan Shao's side has always held an absolute advantage.

The officers and men in the army were all worried and fearful, and what's more, they secretly communicated with Yuan Shao and exchanged private letters.

But no one expected that Cao Mao could defeat Zhang Yun in one fell swoop!
Everyone present knew that Zhang Yun's troops were the main force on the western front.

His failure meant that Cao Mao could go straight in and attack Yecheng!

As long as Yecheng is captured and Yuan Shao's retreat is cut off, then Cao Cao's side will surely win this battle!

Even if Cao Mao can't take Yecheng, he can force Yuan Shao to divide his troops and return to defense, reducing the pressure on Cao Cao's side!

Under such circumstances, Cao Mao's big victory is tantamount to a shot in the arm, and even completely reversed the situation of the battle!

"The military division really knows things like a god!"

Cao Cao sat back down slowly, looking at Guo Jia with joy,

"It turned out to be exactly as you said!"

"How can this be regarded as predictable like a god?"

Guo Jia shook his head and sighed,
"Although my subordinates thought that Mr. Su Lie would make extraordinary achievements, they never expected to make such great achievements!"

"By building a dam to store water, almost all of Zhang Yun's troops were wiped out, and there were very few casualties on our side."

"My lord is really a resourceful person! My lord can always trust my lord Su Lie."

Cao Cao's heart skipped a beat.

Yes, since the battle of Wancheng, Maoer beheaded Zhang Xiu, attacked Shouchun, surrendered to Lu Bu, and retreated to Liu Bei.

Send troops to Jingzhou to frighten Liu Biao, and attack Huainan to crack Yuan Shu.

All kinds of proud military exploits, but just like what Guo Jia said, you can always trust your son.

Maybe I had a rift with Maoer because of a small pass on the jade seal of the country, which is really wrong!
Cao Cao made up his mind that when the war subsides, he must repair the father-son relationship with Cao Mao.

……

White horse.

Conference hall.

Yuan Shao sat in the chief seat, listening to Jushou's report on the war.

"Cao's army has already retreated to Baima Mountain. General Yan Liang, General Chun Yuqiong, and military division Feng Ji are leading their troops to a stalemate with them."

"The rest of the army has already crossed the Yellow River, but the follow-up supplies have not yet arrived."

"It is estimated that we will be ready within three days to launch the next attack on Cao Jun!"

Ju Shou said loudly.

Because of Cao Mao, the Battle of Guandu is completely different from history.

Without pig teammates like Guo Tu and Shen Pei, he plans to rely on his strong strength to fight steadily.

After listening to Jushou's report, Yuan Shao nodded in satisfaction,
"It's so good, I've worked hard for Gonghe (Ju Shou's name) these few days."

After discussing the military affairs and preparing to leave, Yuan Shao suddenly remembered and asked,
"Is there any news about General Ning Guozhong on the west front?"

Ju Shou hesitated for a moment, then told Yuan Shao about the defeat of Gao Gan, Gao Rou and others to Ji County.

"...After Bingzhou Mu was defeated and retreated to Ji County, Yu Chaoge County joined Ningguo Zhonglang General, and then defended Chaoge to the death, raising the sign of exemption..."

"Yuan Cai, you bastard!"

Yuan Shao, with a gloomy complexion, couldn't help cursing,
But after hearing that Zhang Yun was sticking to Chaoge, his expression eased a lot, he nodded and said,

"With Ningguo Zhonglang guarding Chaoge, I feel much more at ease..."

But before he finished speaking, he saw a disheartened messenger rushing in from the outside.

"My lord, it's not good!"

The messenger had a mournful face, and his voice was full of tears,

"General Ning Guo Zhonglang was defeated by Cao Jun in Chaoge, and the remaining troops were less than a thousand. Now he has retreated to Yecheng..."

"what?"

When Yuan Shao heard this, he couldn't sit still immediately, and stood up in shock.

Everyone else in the hall was also dumbfounded!
Zhang Xi's troops, plus the high-ranking cadres and the Xiongnu's troops, totaled 8 to [-] people!

However, he was defeated by Cao Mao, with less than a thousand soldiers left? !

How can this be? !
If they hadn't heard it with their own ears, they would even think it was a fairy tale!

"How is this possible? How could Junyi lose so badly? You must have lied about the military situation! Someone, cut off his head for me!"

Yuan Shao was startled and angry, pointing at the messenger and said viciously.

"My lord, I am wronged!"

The messenger was taken aback and hurriedly begged for mercy.

But the guards on the left and right stepped forward, wanting to take him out without hesitation.

"Wait!"

Xu You hurriedly called the guards to stop, looked at the displeased Yuan Shao, and explained,

"My lord, we have to ask clearly about Ningguo Zhonglang's disastrous defeat."

"Yes, there is no joke in the army, how dare this sergeant fabricate military information?"

Jushou on the side also chimed in.

Previously, Yuan Shao was too shocked by the news of Zhang Yun's fiasco, so he ordered the messenger to be beheaded.

But after listening to Jushou and Xu You's persuasion, he took a few deep breaths before calming down.

"You recruit me truthfully, if there is half a lie, I will definitely kill you!"

Yuan Shao stared at the messenger with a gloomy expression.

The messenger knelt down and told the truth about how Zhang Yun entered Chaoge, how Cao Mao built a dam to store water, and broke through in one fell swoop.

When he finished speaking, there was already a dead silence in the lobby.

Everyone's faces became extremely ugly!
This Cao Mao is so cruel!

The Yellow River broke its embankment brazenly, turning the counties from Chaoge County to the north to Dangyin and Lin County into a land of water!
They thought Zhang He was too incompetent before, but thinking about it now, they would be guarding Chaoge instead.

Facing such a cruel and ruthless Cao Mao, I am afraid that he will fall into the trap.

"My lord... why don't we withdraw our troops..."

Ju Shou hesitated for a long time before breaking the silence in the lobby.

Yuan Shao's face was gloomy, and he could almost squeeze out water.

He mobilized three 10,000+ troops, [-] civilians, countless money and supplies, and was ambitious to wipe out Cao Cao!

However, it's only less than a month, and they are going to withdraw their troops?

Not to mention the loss caused by it, how can this make him feel relieved!

I regret that I just sat and watched Cao Mao grow stronger!

When Yuan Shao thought of Cao Mao, he gritted his teeth with hatred, his eyes were full of anger!

But anger is anger, and he still maintains his basic rationality.

Yuan Shao was silent for a long time, and said with difficulty,
"Send the order, retreat!"

"Lord!"

"Great opportunity, don't waste it!"

Xu You, Xin Ping and other counselors couldn't help persuading them.

"What if you don't retreat?"

Yuan Shao let out a long sigh, his face was full of unwillingness.

"If Cao Mao captures Yecheng, what shall we do?"

Once Yecheng is occupied, Yuan Jun's logistics and supplies will be cut off. At that time, he will face the pincer attack of Cao Mao and Cao Cao, and he will be unable to advance or retreat.

Everyone was silent for a long time, and they could only accept orders.

At this moment, Xu You pondered for a moment, then said softly,
"My lord, if we withdraw our army hastily, I'm afraid Cao Cao will take advantage of the situation and chase after him, and then there will be some trouble."

"It's better for me to divide my troops to cross the river first, and go back to Yecheng to stop Cao Mao, and my lord will lead the army to retreat slowly."

Yuan Shao thought for a moment, nodded slightly,
"good."
