Here Cao Chun was killed and fled around, and Cao Cao had already led his army to the border of Bingzhou.

Upon hearing the news, Gao Shun did not stick to the city, but ordered the army to stop the war outside Bingzhou.

Dazhai was built on an important road, and Gao Shun waited for the arrival of Cao Jun with leisure.

This time, there were only [-] Gaoshun soldiers and horses, and only [-] soldiers were trapped in the camp.

Soldiers and horses do not have the upper hand, and Gao Shun does not intend to take the initiative to attack. Although Bingzhou has slowly recovered from the last catastrophe, it is still just getting better. If the army is defeated, I am afraid that the previous efforts will be in vain.

When Cao Cao learned that Gao Shun had sent an army to obstruct the main road, he immediately ordered the army to speed up, for fear that Gao Shun would suddenly retreat.

After all, in a diplomatic war, it is much better than attacking a city with human lives.

Cao Jun hurried all the way, arrived in one day, and set up camp ten miles away from Gaoshun Dazhai.

After rushing for a day, Cao Cao was not in a hurry to attack, but ordered to rest. He personally led his subordinates and others to check the defense of Gaoshun Dazhai.

Standing on the hillside, Cao Cao took a closer look, feeling a little worried in his heart, and said slowly: "It seems that Gao Shun can be reused by Li Huiyi, it seems that he is not a man who has made a name for himself."

Xun You on the side agreed: "Yes, this stronghold is in the lead, with hanging walls on both sides, guarding both sides, which can be said to save a lot of troops. If the stronghold is not released, it may take some time."

Cheng Yu looked at it carefully for a while and said, "My lord, this place is quite close to Gaoshun's Great Village. He must have heard the news, so we should go back to the camp first and discuss it later."

Cao Cao smiled and said, "Haha, Zhong De is worrying too much. If Gao Shun really comes out, I will be more relieved."

Cheng Yu was puzzled and asked, "Why did my lord say that?"

Cao Cao explained: "If Gao Shun comes out, it shows that he is not calm. When the time comes, he will be agitated. No matter how well established the village is, it is just a decoration."

As soon as Cao Cao finished his sentence, he saw the gate of the village below opened wide, and a general led thousands of cavalry, galloping towards him.

Seeing this scene, Cheng Yu hurriedly said: "My lord, retreat quickly, the enemy general has already been killed."

Cao Cao waved his hands expressionlessly and said, "Wait, go and ask who is coming?"

Hearing Cao Cao's words, everyone was puzzled, but one general went to speak out.

"Who is coming, can you tell me the name?"

The person who led the army to kill was none other than Gao Shun.

Hearing the call, Gao Shun didn't respond, but continued to rush forward.

Seeing this scene, Cao Cao's subordinates quickly supported Cao Cao and wanted to retreat.

But when Gao Shun rushed to the hillside a hundred meters away, he reined in his horse and stopped.

Regardless of whether Cao Cao saw it or not, Gao Shun saluted with his fists in his hands, and shouted loudly, "General Gao Shun, you have met Lord Cao!"

Cao Cao, who was being supported, broke free immediately when he heard the shout, and glanced at the people under his command angrily.

Returning to the top of the mountain, Cao Cao smiled and said, "May I ask General Gao, is there an edict from His Majesty for the title of General of the Town Army?"

Gao Shun answered the wrong question: "Gao was ordered by my lord to guard Bingzhou. Why didn't Master Cao come here?"

Cao Cao smiled and said, "Why did you come here uninvited in order to suppress the bandits?"

Gao Shun shouted back: "At the beginning, Bingzhou was trampled by the Xiongnu cavalry. Is there an edict to eliminate the thieves?"

Cao Cao said: "Your Majesty was caught in the hands of rebels at that time, but he was powerless if he wanted to. Now that he is back in power, he will clean up all the disobedient people in the world."

Gao Shun said: "Since this is the case, I don't know if my lord has any act of disobedience?"

Chapter 407

Cao Cao thought about it carefully, and there was indeed no act of disobedience.

Although he privately conquered Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao, he was appointed by the late emperor and was able to govern the military affairs of Youzhou independently.

However, Gongsun Zan moved the soldiers and civilians of Bingzhou, caused the Huns to invade, and killed Liu Yu, a minister appointed by the imperial court in vain, which is not a capital crime.

As for Yuan Shao, it was a great crime for Yuan Shu to proclaim himself emperor publicly, and it was reasonable for foreign ministers to crusade on their own initiative.

Ever since Li Huiyi ruled the north, foreign tribes surrendered, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and even expanded the territory for the great Han.

Cao Cao didn't expect Gao Shun to lead the army out, just to force this question, he paused and shouted back: "Without His Majesty's edict, it's not enough to use swords and soldiers without permission?"

Indeed, Cao Cao now represents the emperor. He said that whoever is guilty will be guilty. This is the benefit of coercing the emperor to make the princes.

Gao Shun said coldly: "Since Marquis Cao must fight, then hurry up, otherwise Cao's army in Bingzhou will be completely wiped out."

Although there is no news about Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, Cao Cao firmly believes that they will not be wiped out so easily.

But after hearing this, Cao Cao's face was still cold. It can be said that the Tiger and Leopard Rider was built with great painstaking efforts.

Seeing that Gao Shun didn't come to besiege, Cao Cao didn't stay any longer, and left quickly with his subordinates and others.

After returning to Daying, Cao Cao raised his tent and raised his hall. When Wen and Wu were seated, he couldn't wait to ask, "What can you see?"

Xun You cupped his hands on the left side and said, "My lord, Gao Shun's words show that he is a steady man. I'm afraid this battle will be difficult to achieve."

First sent troops to test Yizhou, and then sent troops to merge the state. I thought it would be able to confuse, but I didn't expect that both places were heavily defended.

Cao Cao pondered for a while and said, "Then is there a way to draw it out?"

"rustle……"

After Cao Cao's words fell, the curtain was suddenly lifted, and a soldier entered the tent, held up an envelope and knelt down and said, "Report! An urgent report from Yanzhou."

Ok?

Everyone in the tent was shocked and looked at the soldiers entering the tent.

Cao Cao waved his hand, and a big man standing behind him stepped forward to take the envelope from the soldier, and hurriedly handed it to Cao Cao.

After opening it for a glance, Cao Cao put it down and said, "Yuan Shao was defeated. He surrendered to Liu Bei and has gone to Xuzhou. Now Liu Bei is guarding Beihai."

"And Li Huiyi is leading his general Huang Zhong to invade Taishan County in Yanzhou."

I thought it was Zhang Yan from Yizhou who attacked Yanzhou, but Yuan Shao was defeated so quickly, and Cao Cao's subordinates were even more shocked.

This is really the dragon hiding the clouds and mists, without showing the mountains and dews, but once it shows up, it will change the color of the situation.

Since Cao Cao sent troops, Xun You advised and rescued Yuan Shao, but Cao Cao wanted to send troops to merge the state. Now that Taishan County was invaded, Xun You also looked sad.

After pondering for a long time, Xun You said: "My lord, Yanzhou can't afford to lose, and sent troops to rescue as soon as possible."

Cao Cao thought for a while, then smiled and said: "I have a plan, and it may accomplish great things. Since it is necessary to divide the troops, why not make a big splash."
