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

As soon as he finished speaking, a soldier came to report.

"My lord, Guo Jijiu has sent a letter from Xudu!"

Cao Cao beckoned, "Zhongde, read it!"

"Yes!" Cheng Yu made a bow with both hands, took the letter and opened it to check, then his expression changed drastically.

Cao Cao asked, "What's the matter?"

Cheng Yu said: "Guo Jijiu's opinion coincides with Mr. Cao Ji's. He said that after breaking Jicheng, you must ask the Prime Minister to break Wuhuan!"

As soon as this remark came out, there was another exclamation in the big tent.

The two legends of Cao Ying are surprisingly consistent in the matter of Yuan Shang.

"Hahaha!" Cao Cao laughed loudly: "A gentleman sees the same thing!"

There are no more opponents of civil and military affairs in the big tent.

One Cao Ji is enough to surprise four people, and now Guo Jia, a military adviser offering wine, has proposed the same strategy.

This battle must be fought no matter what.

Cao Cao ordered [-] elite cavalry in the army, ordered Zhang Liao to be the vanguard, and Yuan Shao's old general Tian Chou to be the guide.

Xu Huang, Yu Jin, Xiahou Dun, and Cao Hong led their troops along with the army.

The army came out from Jicheng and went straight to Wuhuan.

At the suggestion of Tian Chou, he arrived at Liucheng from Lulongkou through Baitan.

The army continued to move forward, and when they passed White Wolf Mountain, they suddenly encountered the remnants of Wuhuan and Yuan Shang.

Cao Cao did not expect to encounter the enemy so soon.

Yuan Shang didn't even expect that Cao Cao would come after him even after he had run to Wuhuan?

What was even more confusing was Tadun, who didn't even know when Cao Cao entered his territory.

Chapter 102 A gentleman sees the same thing, Guo Jia and Liu Xian have the same strategy

Seeing this, Cao Cao immediately climbed up to look at the enemy.

The Wuhuan tribe had more than [-] cavalry, and Yuan Shang had more than [-] remnants.

The soldiers and horses of the two armies were evenly matched.

But the Wuhuan cavalry was in disarray. Although Yuan Shang had [-] soldiers and horses, they were all defeated generals.

Which is higher and which is lower, Cao Cao knows well.

"Where is Zhang Wenyuan?" Cao Cao asked loudly.

"The last general is here!" Zhang Liao stepped forward, clasping his fists.

Cao Cao said: "You are from Yanmen, and you often fought with Xianbei, do you have a plan to defeat the enemy?"

"Yes!" Zhang Liao said, "Wuhuan's military discipline is lax, so we can take advantage of it to form an army to besiege the city and defeat it in one fell swoop!"

"Okay!" Cao Cao said, "I call you the vanguard and command all the cavalry to defeat Wuhuan!"

"Obey!" Zhang Liao cupped his fists and immediately led the troops.

Zhang Liao led Xu Chu, Xu Huang, Yu Jin and more than [-] cavalry, divided into four groups and went straight to the Wuhuan cavalry.

The unprepared Wuhuan army was caught off guard due to the narrow terrain.

The scuffle lasted for half an hour.

Ta Dun, the leader of Wuhuan, was not afraid, but charged forward instead.

On the other hand, Yuan Shang led the way and escaped, taking Wuhuan as his stepping stone.

Zhang Liao and Yuan Shang fled behind Wuhuan, and immediately asked Xu Chu to open the way for him.

Then he held a big knife and went straight in front of Ta Dun.

Ta Dun hastily fought Zhang Liao.

The two fought for more than ten rounds.

Zhang Liao deliberately sold a loophole to Ta Dun, who fell for it.

But he didn't want Zhang Liao to turn around and cut off Tadun's head neatly.

Zhang Liao held up Tadun's head: "Tadun is dead, and those who surrender will not be killed!"

The Wuhuan tribe has always bullied the weak.

Anyone who can become a leader is a warrior in the army.

The enemy general beheaded Ta Dun, the leader. Naturally, bravery is better than Ta Dun.

Wuhuan soldiers surrendered on the spot.

A bloody battle that was supposed to start came to an abrupt end.

Cao Cao, who was standing on the top of the hill watching, couldn't help laughing: "Zhang Wenyuan of Yanmen is a brave general."

Yuan Shang escaped, but Cao Cao did not chase after him, but took the lead in cleaning up the mess.

After dark, the troops returned to Liucheng.

In this battle, more than half of Wuhuan's troops were lost, and about [-] surrendered.

Cao Cao selected [-] Wuhuan cavalry, all of which were handed over to Zhang Liao.

It was these five thousand Wuhuan iron cavalry that helped Zhang Liao guard Hefei in the future, and defeated the one hundred thousand Jiangdong army with eight hundred dead soldiers.

Except for [-] elite Wuhuan soldiers, the rest were either incorporated into the supply camp or placed in Liucheng.

At the banquet that night, Zhang Liao became the protagonist, drinking and drinking constantly.

Cao Cao patted Zhang Liao on the shoulder: "Wen Yuan's bravery is really impressive!"

Zhang Liao raised his glass with both hands: "If the Prime Minister did not appreciate it, Liao would never have made such a contribution!"

"Hahaha!" Cao Cao laughed loudly, "Do you know who recommended you?"

Zhang Liao was shocked, and asked immediately, "Could it be Mr. Cao Ji?"

"Exactly!" Cao Cao said, "Before the war, he strongly recommended you as a pioneer. You really have the ability to know people!"

Zhang Liao said: "May I ask the Prime Minister, how sacred is this Mr. Cao Ji?"

"Hahaha!" Cao Cao laughed loudly: "You will know in the future!"

At this time Zhang Liao was puzzled.

Who is Cao Ji?

Why can he recommend himself?

acquaintance?

I would never know such an expert!

The only capable person he knew was Liu Prisoner.

However, the prisoner Liu was in the supply camp, obviously not the miraculous Mr. Cao Ji.

At this moment, Mr. Cao Ji's four words were firmly engraved in Zhang Liao's heart.

A few days later, Cao Cao's troops returned to Youzhou and entered Jicheng.

Cao Ren, Cheng Yu and other civil servants and generals went out of the city to meet Cao Cao.

The Wuhuan tribe has been pacified, which is undoubtedly exciting news.

When the generals learned that Yuan Shang had fled to Liaodong to join Gongsun Kang, they called for battle to attack Liaodong.

After the army settled down, Cao Cao immediately went to see Liu Xian.

This time, Lao Cao was not empty-handed.

Eight large boxes of gold, silver and jewelry plus two title deeds.

After Liu Xian saw the gift, he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.

"Brother Chicken is particular about people! Lao Huang hastened to prepare the food and drink. Brother Chicken and I have two drinks!"

Old Cao said: "If Mr. hadn't recommended Zhang Liao, the fight against Wuhuan would not have been so smooth!"

"Where, where!" Liu Xian cupped his hands with a smile, and had already opened the title deed to check.

One is the shop on Yecheng Street, and the other is the shop on Xudu Street.

Even if you don't do business, you can earn a lot of money by collecting rent from the two shops.

Lao Cao smiled and asked, "Are you satisfied, sir?"

"Very satisfied, happy cooperation!" Liu Xian accepted the land deed, and hurriedly sat down and poured wine for Lao Cao.

"Hahaha!" Lao Cao raised his glass with a smile, "Please sir!"

"Please!" Liu Xian also toasted.

The two kept pushing and changing cups.

After eating and drinking, Lao Cao said: "Sir, Yuan Shang fled to Liaodong, and all the generals in the army are vying to lead troops to attack Liaodong. What do you think of this matter?"

"No need!" Liu Xian shook his head.

"Ah?" Lao Cao was shocked: "It's not necessary?"

"That's right!" Liu Xian said bluntly: "Mr. Cao doesn't need to attack Liaodong, he just needs to take back other counties and counties in Youzhou with peace of mind. It won't be long before Gongsun Kang will send the heads over!"

Lao Cao was even more shocked: "Is there such a good thing?"

"Yes!" Liu Xian nodded: "Gongsun Kang has always been afraid of Yuan Shao and was afraid of being hoarded by him. Naturally, he did not get along with Yuan Shang. If Duke Cao's troops are overwhelming, the two will join forces to resist our army. To protect myself, Yuan Shangxian and Duke Cao must be killed!"

"Hahaha!" Lao Cao laughed.

Liu Xian said: "Even if Gongsun Kang didn't kill Yuan Shang, after Cao Gong recovered Jizhou, he would have time to attack Liaodong. Guo Jijiu can definitely see this!"

"Oh?" Lao Cao was shocked. Liu Xian and Guo Jia had the same opinion about the matter of sending troops to Wuhuan earlier.

Now that Gongsun Kang of Liaodong is not being fought, Liu Xian even bluntly said that Guo Jia still has the same opinion as himself.

You know, one of them is in Jicheng and the other is in Xudu.

It can be said that they are thousands of miles away, but they can see through each other. This is not easy!

After leaving Liu Xian's small courtyard, Cao Cao returned to the Chinese army.

A few days later, the generals entered the big tent to challenge Cao Cao.

"Prime Minister, I am willing to conquer Liaodong for the vanguard!"

"I have to be the vanguard, attack Liaodong, please take me to the prime minister!"

"Prime Minister, it's my turn to be the pioneer this time, right?"

Seeing the generals vying to be the first to be the vanguard, Cao Cao smiled: "Don't worry, everyone, I have a conclusion!"

All the generals looked at Cao Cao one after another, their eyes full of anticipation.

Cao Cao handed Guo Jia's letter to everyone for reading.

The soldiers were shocked.

"Guo Jijiu said that there is no need to fight Liaodong?"

"You also said that Gongsun Kang would send Yuan Shang's head?"

"Is this reliable?"

Cao Cao laughed loudly: "Guo Fengxiao's opinion coincides with that of Mr. Cao Ji again this time!"

As soon as this remark came out, there was another shock in the big tent.

Both gods and men proposed a strategy that does not need to attack Liaodong.

No one dared to mention this time again.

Cao Cao said: "All the generals listen to the order and recover the counties and counties before autumn, there must be no mistakes!"
