At the same time that Xiahoudun stood up, Yu Jin also stood up under Yu Jin's signal and said, "General, the last general has not achieved an inch since he joined the general's command. At the end of this battle, the general is willing to help the general defeat the enemy for the vanguard."

Cao Cao looked at Xiahoudun and Yu Jin and laughed loudly: "Okay, since that's the case, Yuan will let you be the left vanguard, and Wen Ze you will be the right vanguard, each with [-] soldiers and horses, to open roads in the mountains and build bridges in the water. , set off immediately, without any mistakes."

"The last general obeys orders." Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin agreed and retreated.

Yu Jin was originally a military commander when he first joined Cao Cao, but because of Yu Jin's outstanding talent, he was promoted by Cao Cao to be a captain, and he was in charge of 5000 people.

Cao Cao continued: "Although Xuzhou is going to fight this time, Yanzhou can't lose." Then Cao Cao glanced at the crowd of civil and military soldiers in front of him, and then said: "This time it will be up to Wen Ruo, Zhong De, Si Si The three of you are responsible for staying in Yanzhou, and I will leave you [-] troops, do you have the confidence to defend Yanzhou?"

Cheng Yu, Xun Yu, and Yu Jin stood up and said, "I will live up to my lord's trust."

Cao Cao looked at the three of them with a look of satisfaction on his face. Although Cao Cao was very angry now, he understood that Yanzhou was his territory and he could not afford to lose it.You must know that although Cao Cao is now the general of Zhendong and has a great reputation, Cao Cao understands that Yanzhou has been occupied for too short a time and its foundation is unstable. If Zhang Kai hadn't killed Cao Song this time, Cao Cao would not have sent troops to Xuzhou at all.

But it is useless to say these now. Cao Song is dead, and he died in the hands of Zhang Kai, who was sent by Tao Qian to escort Tao Qian to Yanzhou. We must send troops to Xuzhou. This is something that no one can stop.

After Cao Cao occupied Yanzhou, he had a total of 10,000+ troops. This time, he left 1 troops for Cheng Yu, Xun Yu, and Yu Jin to defend Yanzhou. Then Cao Cao personally led [-] troops to attack Xuzhou. Among them, Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin and Yu Jin were the vanguards, each leading [-] soldiers and horses, a total of [-] soldiers and horses to attack Xuzhou first, while Cao Cao led [-] soldiers and horses with the rest of the generals and counselors and walked slowly behind.

Moreover, most of Cao Cao's 10,000+ soldiers and horses were the former Qingzhou Yellow Turbans. After Cao Cao captured these Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, he selected a large number of young and strong to enrich his army.And these Qingzhou Yellow Turbans are also battle-tested veterans who have seen blood, and they are much stronger than those new recruits.Therefore, after the battle with the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, Cao Cao directly had tens of thousands of elite soldiers.

Moreover, Cao Cao has a lot of capable people, whether it is Xiahoudun, Xiahouyuan and other Cao Cao clan generals or Yu Jin, Le Jin and other generals with foreign surnames, they are all good at training soldiers, so these former Qingzhou Yellow Turbans were quickly trained to become Cao Cao The elite soldiers under his command.

And because Cao Cao's policies and benefits here are good, although these soldiers used to be the Yellow Turban Army, although they can't be regarded as completely loyal to Cao Cao now, it is impossible for them to defect to the enemy.The most important thing is that in Cao Cao's battle with the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans last year, not only the 10,000+ Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou were captured, but also the old and weak women and children among the more than one million Yellow Turbans.Therefore, there are very few situations such as escape among these soldiers.

Although Cao Cao really wanted to lead his troops to Xuzhou to kill Tao Qian immediately, Cao Cao also understood that this kind of thing should not be too anxious, otherwise it would only be counterproductive.

Therefore, after sending Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin first, Cao Cao gathered troops in Yanzhou to attack Xuzhou.

It has to be said that Cao Cao's speed of gathering soldiers and horses was a bit fast. He quickly assembled [-] soldiers and horses. The army went to Xuzhou.

On the city of Changyi, Xun Yu looked at the figure of Cao Cao leading his troops away and the mighty momentum of the [-] army, there was still a melancholy cloud between his brows, and it was the kind of dense cloud that lingered for a long time.

Yu Jin, who was on the side, saw Xun Yu's expression, but came over and said, "Wen Ruo, don't worry too much, the lord acts in his own way, and there are Feng Xiao and Zi Yang beside the lord, presumably the lord's trip should be There will be no problem."

Xun Yu shook his head and said, "My lord is at the moment of fury. Although Feng Xiao, Zi Yang and others are by my lord's side, I'm afraid my lord won't listen to their persuasion."

Yu Jin continued: "Even so, with Tao Qian's strength, he won't be the lord's opponent at all, why should you worry, Wen Ruo?"

Xun Yu said: "Then Tao Gongzu is indeed not the Lord's opponent, but if Tao Qian sticks to the city and stays behind closed doors, then even with the ability of the Lord and the generals, it is impossible to break through the city in a short time. And if this time delays If it continues, I'm afraid something will change."

At this time, Cheng Yu said: "Since that's the case, then talk less and do more. The lord has entrusted the safety of Yanzhou to the three of us, so we must guard this Yanzhou for the lord so that the lord will not have any worries. "

After hearing Cheng Yu's words, both Xun Yu and Yu Jin nodded in agreement. Although Cao Cao had already brought Yanzhou under control, the time was short after all, and there were actually quite a few oppositions in Yanzhou. Cao Cao's voice, and there are countless powerful enemies around Yanzhou.

Neither Yuan Shao from Jizhou nor Yuan Shu from Yuzhou is a fuel-efficient lamp, so the task of staying in Yanzhou is actually not easy.It is precisely because of this that Cao Cao let Xun Yu, Cheng Yu and Yu Jin stay in Yanzhou.

The abilities of the three people are not covered. Under normal circumstances, the ability of the three people can naturally defend Yanzhou, but sometimes things in this world are not as smooth as people think, and there will always be some unexpected variables. It caught people off guard.

However, none of the three had the ability to predict the future. Even if these three were top-notch strategists in the world, they could at best deduce the possibility of things based on some clues.

However, after the three of Xun Yu went back, they quickly arranged the 1 soldiers and horses left by Cao Cao. Among them, You Xun Yu led 1 troops to stay in Changyi, Cheng Yu led 1 troops to station in Jibei, and Yu Jin led [-] troops to stay in Changyi. Thousands of horses guard Dongjun.

The three of them each led [-] soldiers and horses to defend Yanzhou in an airtight manner.

And Cao Cao also understood the abilities of Xun Yu and the other three, so he let them stay in Yanzhou.And Cao Cao's lineup for attacking Xuzhou this time is extremely gorgeous. In addition to Xia Houdun and Yu Jin who are the left and right vanguards, Cao Cao also has Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Xia Houyuan, Le Jin, Li Dian, Li Dingguo, Pan Feng, Niu Gao, Bian Xiang, Shi Xiu and other military generals, as for civil servants and advisers, in addition to Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, and Yu Jin who stayed in Yanzhou, Xi Zhicai, Xun You, and Guo Jing were also attacking Xuzhou with Cao Cao this time. Jia, Man Chong, Liu Ye, Lu Qian, Mao Jie and others are not weak.

It is worth mentioning that Xi Zhicai had a serious illness last year, almost dying. At that time, Cao Cao was very worried. After all, Cao Cao also valued Xi Zhicai, and Xi Zhicai can be said to be Cao Cao's first counselor, although he had a Chen Gong before, left Cao Cao halfway.And now Cao Cao's Xun Yu, Guo Jia and others are more or less related to Xi Zhicai.

But what reassures Cao Cao is that Xi Zhicai's illness has miraculously improved this year. Not only is Cao Cao happy, but even Xi Zhicai is quite surprised. After all, what is the condition of his body? Still relatively clear.

But although Xi Zhicai's health is not very good now, and there are constant minor problems, but there are no major problems.So this time under the strong request of Xi Zhicai, Xi Zhicai was brought up, otherwise Cao Cao wanted Xi Zhicai to recuperate in Yanzhou with peace of mind.

Chapter 196 The Powerful Cao Jun

And Cao Cao led troops from Taishan County to Langya County, and the prefect of Langya County had already learned that Cao Cao sent troops to Xuzhou to avenge Cao Song.The prefect of Langya County already knew Cao Cao's reputation and knew that he could not resist Cao Cao, so he had the idea of ​​surrendering the city in his heart. It was only because Tao Qian treated him well on weekdays that he didn't directly surrender the city.

When Xiahoudun and Yu Jin killed the Langya city, the prefect of Langya ordered the city gate to be closed, and another [-] soldiers were called to defend the city of Langya against Cao Jun.

Before they reached Langya City, Yu Jin and Xiahou Dun had basically defeated all the county towns below Langya County, such as Nayangdu and Zeng County, and now only Langya City remained in Langya County.

However, although the prefect of Langya planned to rely on the fortified city to defend, in fact, Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin did not plan to attack by force after capturing several cities one after another, so they stationed outside Langya city. .

However, Xiahoudun and Yu Jin were not idle when they arrived. They surrounded Langya City with the 1 soldiers they brought. There is no problem with besieging the city.

After Yu Jin and Xiahou Dun surrounded the Langya City, although the prefect of Langya led troops out of the city to defeat Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin, he was defeated by Yu Jin and Xiahou Dun in the first battle, and lost Two to 3000 people.And after this battle, the prefect of Langya never opened the city gate again.Now what the prefect of Langya hopes most is that Tao Qian quickly send reinforcements to help him, otherwise Xiahoudun and Yu Jin are just Cao Cao's vanguards.

A few days later, Cao Cao led his troops to arrive. Outside Langya City, Cao Cao met Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin. He praised the two for their contributions, which made the rest of Cao Cao's generals jealous.And these generals all looked at Langya City at the same time.

Since the rest of the counties in Langya territory have been almost beaten by Yu Jin and Xiahou Dun, Langya is the only one who has the chance to make meritorious service.

And Cao Cao also discovered the emotional changes of the generals under his command, but Cao Cao did not stop these changes, because they were not harmful.On the contrary, the eagerness for credit will only make these generals under him burst out with greater strength.

And this situation is exactly what Cao Cao is willing to see.

Seeing the fighting spirit of these generals under his command, Cao Cao smiled slightly, and said: "Tomorrow the attack will begin, and the first person to climb to the top of the city will be the first, and this general will definitely reward him heavily."

After hearing Cao Cao's words, Cao Hong, Le Jin and other generals' eyes brightened. This is a great opportunity that came to them, how could they let it go.

Cao Hong said loudly: "Don't worry, brother, this skill must belong to me, Cao Hong."

Le Jin on the side also stood up and said: "General Zilian's words are a bit too early. Of course, we will not know who is responsible for this trick until tomorrow, and it may not be General Zilian's."

Cao Hong was furious when he heard the words: "Le Jin, do you mean that this kung fu is yours?"

Le Jin laughed and said, "I never said that, but since General Cao Hong believes in Wen Qian so much, then Wen Qian will definitely not disappoint General Cao Hong tomorrow."

When Cao Hong was told by Le Jin, anger rose in his heart, and he pointed at Le Jin and said, "Okay, Le Jin, let's see tomorrow whether this kung fu is yours or mine."

However, Cao Hong's words aroused the displeasure of a big man on the side.What Cao Hong said was as if this skill was either his, Cao Hong's or Le Jin's. Isn't this obviously looking down on people?

Pan Feng said in a loud voice: "I don't think the two generals need to fight. How about letting me do it if you don't have the best attack on the city tomorrow?"

Cao Hong and Le Jin looked at Pan Feng's burly body and said at the same time: "Impossible."

Cao Hong went on to say: "I see how you, General Pan, will take a day off tomorrow. You should not appreciate such credit."

But Pan Feng smiled and said: "General Cao Hong is wrong, who would think too much of this credit? If General Cao Hong thinks he can't see this credit, I don't think there is any need to argue with the few of us tomorrow. "

Cao Cao watched Cao Hong and the others arguing there, but said loudly: "Okay, don't argue, whoever climbs to the top of Langya City tomorrow will be the first to attack the city."

Then Cao Cao looked at the generals with excited eyes, and said calmly, "Let's all go down."

After all the civil and military personnel left, Cao Cao walked out of the tent, looked at the night sky outside, and murmured: "Father, don't worry, I will use Xuzhou to bury you with you, and I will make Tao Qian pay the price. Yours Tao Qian can only repay him with blood."

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night. The difference is that all the civil and military soldiers in Cao Jun's camp are excited because they will attack the city tomorrow, and they are excited to win the first achievement that Cao Cao promised. Excited to avenge Cao Song.

But this night was a tormenting night for the people in Langya City.Cao Cao's [-] troops are waiting in full force outside Langya City, and the defensive force inside Langya City cannot stop Cao Cao's attack at all.But the prefect of Langya can only resign himself to his fate. What he hopes most now is that Cao Cao can treat him well after defeating Langya.

For Tao Qian's reinforcements, the prefect of Langya has given up hope. If Tao Qian wanted to send reinforcements, it should have arrived by now, but the fact that they haven't arrived now can only mean that Tao Qian didn't send reinforcements at all.
