After being abandoned by Liu Bei, Cao Cao begged me to be a military adviser

Xin Ming kept yelling, and he didn't hesitate to kill his own people with his sword in order to stop the chaos.

"Boom!" There was a sound.

A boulder rolled from the top of his head and hit Xin Ming directly on top of his head.

Xin Ming fell off his horse and died on the spot. His body was smashed to pieces.

Now Yuan Jun was even more flustered.

"General Xin Ming is dead, run!"

Chapter 55 Yuan Shao and Cao Cao's fateful battle

As soon as Xin Ming died, Yuan Jun completely rioted.

Many people put down their weapons and surrendered to Cao Jun.

But the soldiers loyal to the Yuan family took up weapons and killed the surrendered soldiers.

The soldiers who surrendered became even more angry. I surrendered to live. If you don't let me live, I won't let you live.

Cao Jun is killing Yuan Jun, and Yuan Jun is still killing Yuan Jun.

Yuan Shang had never seen such a chaotic situation in his life.

Poor with little combat experience, he was even more unable to recover from the defeat.

He simply broke it, threw away his weapon, took off his armor, changed into the clothes of an ordinary soldier, and then lay down on the ground pretending to be a dead body.

When the sun rose to the east, Cao Jun charged into the valley.

The battle continued until sunset.

It lasted for a whole night and a day before subsiding.

Bodies were strewn across the valley, and open fires were still burning.

The smell of blood attracted countless mountain beasts to approach.

Even so, Yuan Jun still had nearly [-] soldiers and horses, all of whom disarmed and surrendered.

More than 3 of them are wounded or disabled.

Only more than 2 soldiers and horses can still take up arms and fight.

Cao Ren sent Cao Hong to guard the surrendered soldiers, and ordered the Xiahou brothers to clean up the dead bodies in the canyon.

Xin Ming's body was found, but it was bloody.

But Yuan Shang's body was nowhere to be seen, let alone his life or death.

Even so, Cao Jun won a complete victory.

Cao Ren summoned Cao Hong, Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan again to discuss the next strategy.

"The Prime Minister only ordered us to ambush here, but did not give instructions after the ambush!"

According to the original calculation, this battle may take a long time, and even the two armies will be in a stalemate.

But no one expected that Xin Ming and Yuan Shang's strategic level was so vulnerable.

This victory was beyond the imagination of the four.

Cao Hong said: "According to the regulations of the army, we should return to the camp!"

Xiahou Dun said: "I don't think it's necessary, you can just drive straight in and take Liyang City!"

Xia Houyuan shook his head: "Our army is small, and the prime minister is still in a stalemate with Yuan Shao. It is the best policy to withdraw as soon as possible!"

Cao Rendao: "Three generals, I suggest that the surrendered troops be recruited in place, and then the whole army go to Guandu to attack Yuan Shao's rear. At that time, we should cooperate with the prime minister inside and outside, and Yuan Shao can be defeated in one battle!"

Cao Hong asked: "How to deal with fifty thousand surrendered troops?"

Cao Ren said: "All the soldiers who can fight will be recruited, and the wounded and disabled soldiers will be ignored, and they will live and die on their own!"

"Yeah!" Cao Hong nodded.

The two Xiahou brothers also looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

"Go back to the teacher and fight a good battle."

Cao Ren immediately revised a letter and sent someone to Guandu to inform Cao Cao.

After Cao Cao received the letter, he was extremely shocked.

A Brokeback Mountain canyon wiped out Yuan Jun's nearly [-] vital forces.

This is undoubtedly the biggest battle that has been fought since the confrontation.

Of course, this battle is not a frontal battle.

It is still an ambush for a sneak attack.

But war never looks at the process, only cares about the result.

Cao Cao realized that the time had come to decide the outcome of the First World War.

He rectified his troops overnight, waiting for the final battle.

a few days later.

In the middle of the night, Yuan Jun camped.

Yuan Shao tossed and turned in the big tent unable to fall asleep.

He remembered what he had said to Feng Ji.

It seems to be a little brazen.

He started to regret it a little.

It doesn't seem to make any sense to continue the stalemate.

It's just that Feng Ji can't speak, which makes him, the lord, unable to step down.

Otherwise, he would not have released those cruel words.

"Hey!" Yuan Shao let out a long sigh, but he still refused to admit defeat after all.

What he hates the most is Cao Cao, he despises Cao Cao from the bottom of his heart, and looks down on him as a dog.

"My lord, my lord, something is wrong!"

Guo Tu and Feng Ji hurried into the tent.

Yuan Shao said: "What's wrong? Why are you panicking?"

Guo Tu glanced at Feng Ji, and the latter said: "Master, son, son..."

"What's wrong with Yuan Shang?" Yuan Shao immediately sat up straight.

Feng Ji said: "My son and General Xin Ming were ambushed by Cao's army when they passed by the Wuchao Brokenback Mountain Canyon, and most of the [-] soldiers and horses were lost!"

"What?" Yuan Shao jumped up angrily.

Yuan Shao said: "When did you get the news?"

Feng Ji said: "Just now, the soldiers who escaped from Brokeback Mountain reported it!"

"No!" Yuan Shao hurriedly asked, "How many other people know this news?"

Feng Ji said: "This road has passed, and it has been passed on from person to person. Almost the whole army knows about it!"

"Oops!" Guo Tu said, "In the battle of Brokeback Mountain, almost the entire army was wiped out. How could someone come back to deliver news?"

Feng Ji said: "Maybe this is the bait released by Cao Jun, which is messing up our army's morale!"

Guo Tu said: "My lord, I will take people to block the news immediately!"

"It's late, it's late!" Yuan Shao waved his hand: "Rumors stop at wise men. Since Cao Jun can send out false news, it means that they are already prepared!"

Yuan Shao showed unprecedented shrewdness.

Guo Tu and Feng Ji were dumbfounded.

"You mean, Cao Jun will come to rob the camp tonight?" Guo Tu asked.

Yuan Shaoyi said solemnly: "I feel it, Cao Cao must come! This will be the last battle between me and him!"

As soon as these words came out, Guo Tu and Feng Ji were shocked.

Yuan Shao sternly said: "Order the whole army to come out of the camp and fight against Cao Jun!"

Guo Tu was puzzled: "Why did you go out to the camp?"

Feng Ji also said: "Master, our army can still stand firm in the camp, why go out of the camp to fight?"

Yuan Shao drew out his sword and said loudly: "I want to fight Cao Cao with dignity, I want to fight him to the death!"

At this moment, Yuan Shao exuded the domineering aura of a king.

Guo Tu and Feng Ji didn't dare to say a word of nonsense, so they immediately went down to deliver orders.

Half an hour later, all of Yuan Jun's combatable soldiers rushed out of the camp and formed an army formation in the wild.

Then the sonorous war drum sounded.

After Cao Jun learned the news, he immediately reported to Cao Cao.

According to the agreement, Cao Ren will attack Yuan Jun's camp together with Cao Cao tonight.

Cao Ren released the defeated soldiers.

It was to cause panic within Yuan Jun.

Unexpectedly, this move alerted Yuan Shao.

Cheng Yu shook his head and sighed: "General Cao Ren is eavesdropping, Yuan Shao has already noticed!"

"No!" Cao Cao waved his hand: "On the contrary, Cao Ren did nothing wrong. It's Yuan Shao who has become shrewd!"

Cheng Yu was puzzled: "Is Yuan Shao shrewd?"

Cao Cao said: "When a man is about to die, he speaks well and understands the person! Yuan Shao's life is not long!"

Cheng Yu: "This..."

Xun You asked, "Prime Minister, shall we fight or not?"

Cao Cao said: "Since I want to be more respectable, I will give him this opportunity to order the whole army to go out to the camp and fight Yuan Shao!"

"Obey!" Zhang Wenwu clasped their fists to signal.

Cao Jun, who had been prepared for a long time, dispatched all the soldiers that could fight in just a short time.

In the dark night, the two armies only rely on torches to illuminate them.

The cold wind whistled, and the war drums clanged.

Cao Cao stood on the high platform of the Chinese army and built a pergola to look at Yuan Jun's position.

At this moment, Yuan Shao in Yuan Jun's position was also looking at Cao Cao from afar.

Yuan Shao yelled loudly: "Cao Ah is lying!"

Chapter 56 Yuan Shao vomits three liters of blood, Liu Xian enters the camp

As Yuan Shao yelled, the soldiers around him also repeated Cao Aman!

Cao Cao faintly heard the shout from Yuan Shao, and immediately shouted: "Second Yuan!"

Afterwards, the soldiers around Cao Cao shouted Yuan Laoer one after another.

Yuan Laoer's voice was extremely ear-piercing.

Yuan Shao's old face was pulled down on the spot.

The alias Yuan Lao Er was the nickname Yuan Shu gave him back then.

There is no other reason. Although Yuan Shao is the son of Yuan's eldest son, he is a concubine, and his mother is a maidservant.

Although Yuan Shu is the second son, he is a descendant.

The two brothers have always been at odds.
