Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

"Ah! Forgive me!"

......

Chapter 245 Lao Cao, what about the half-year vacation you promised me?

Guandu Cao Jun camp.

When the battle came to an end, many Cao soldiers were packing up their things in the camp in twos and threes, with an unreal feeling in their hearts, "Win?"

"We actually won?"

"We were about to be breached by Yuan Jun, why did we suddenly win?"

......

Although the night attack on Wuchao was not hidden from the soldiers below,

But because the action was too hasty, many people only knew that the prime minister and the hussar general led a group of cavalry to go out in the camp, but they didn't know what they were doing.

If Xun Yu, Xi Zhicai and others were not still in the camp, the soldiers might have suspected that the two bastards were going to run away by themselves...

Fortunately, the soldiers who returned from Wuchao bragged about their experiences to them, and only then did the soldiers who stayed behind in the camp gradually understand the truth of the matter.

The black nest was burned, and millions of stones and grains were reduced to ashes.

Yuan Shao was defeated and left the frontline soldiers to escape alone. Zhang He, Gao Lan and other generals, together with nearly [-] Yuan Jun who had nowhere to go, surrendered to Cao Cao under Xu You's persuasion.

After this battle, there were nearly 10 Yuan Jun who surrendered, plus Yuan Jun's wounded soldiers and prisoners captured by Cao Jun's soldiers!

One hundred thousand prisoners!

In terms of numbers, it is twice the number of soldiers Cao Cao has now...

"The captives must not be sloppy, and they must be dispersed and sent out as soon as possible, so as to avoid getting together for a long time and giving birth to two hearts..."

"Xuzhou and Huainan are just short of people. Send them there, first undergo labor reform, then distribute fertile land, and at the same time do a good job in ideological education..."

"At the top of the battle, attacking the heart is the first... If this group of Yuan Jun soldiers are used well, they will be a sharp sword for our Northern Expedition in the future..."

"The line from Baima to Guandu has been smashed. Mr. Cao can offer them generous conditions for relocation, and can also implement military and civilian settlements in these places, so that the people can resume their normal life rhythm as soon as possible..."

......

All civil and military personnel, including the newly surrendered Zhang He, Gao Lan, Jiang Yiqu and others, crowded together in this large tent of the Chinese army.

In the huge tent, only Lu Yan walked back and forth in the limited space, arranging post-war affairs while walking.

Cao Cao sat on the main seat, looked at the energetic Lu Yan with a smile on his face, and said in his heart: "I have never seen such a passionate Mr. Lu, it seems that this victory over Yuan Shao completely got rid of his heart problems! "

Unexpectedly, after Lu Yanxu finished making the arrangements, he suddenly smiled at Cao Cao and said, "Mr. Cao, my subordinates have completed all the work arrangements and entrustments. In the next six months, I will thank you and my colleagues." Already!"

Cao Cao: "???"

Everyone: "???"

What the hell?What will all work arrangements and entrustments be done?What in the next six months?

Cao Cao and the others were a little confused by Lu Yan's words.

Seeing Lao Cao's bewildered expression, Lu Yan reminded him appropriately: "My lord, have you forgotten? You promised me before the raid on Wuchao, if you win this battle, you will give me half a year's leave!"

Cao Cao vaguely remembered that Lu Yan had indeed mentioned such a thing.

"It's just...why do you always feel something is wrong?" Lao Cao thought about it, wondering in his heart: "Did I promise to give him a vacation? It seems that I didn't agree!"

Seeing Boss Cao's complexion changed, Lu Yan felt bad, "Oops, Lao Cao is about to react!"

Sure enough, before Lu Yan could continue to speak, Cao Cao stared at Lu Yan suspiciously, and asked, "Mr. Lu, it seems that I didn't agree to give you half a year's leave?"

"You agreed, I'm sure!" Lu Yan tried to die.

"No, I didn't..." Lao Cao was extremely firm, tit for tat.

Lu Yan and Cao Cao were arguing about the half-year holiday, but Xu You, Zhang He and others who had just joined were stunned.

It wasn't until the two chatted for half an hour that Cao Cao finally compromised and agreed to give Lu Yan half a month's leave.

Although I am not reconciled, half a month's vacation is better than nothing...

Boss Cao’s routine failed, and Lu Yan’s expression was sour and expressionless.But no one dared to ask any more questions about this matter, to touch his brow.

But in fact, Lu Yankong was overjoyed by White Wolf, and his heart was already full of joy...

After the matter between the captive and Lu Yan came to an end, there were still important things to discuss.

Although the Battle of Guandu was victorious, Cao Cao only repelled Yuan Shao's invasion.

Cao Cao's adviser, Dong Zhao, stood up and said: "Master, after Yuan Shao's defeat, the crisis in the north has been resolved, and I can rest easy in the Central Plains!"

However, Cheng Yu stood up and objected: "Gongren's words are wrong! Although Yuan Shao was defeated, his prestige, popularity, and popular support in the four prefectures of Hebei are still there. Don't be careless!"

Another person stood up and said: "What Zhongde said is true. I believe that my lord should immediately lead the army to the north and wipe out Yuan Shao completely in one fell swoop, so as to get rid of the trouble in my heart!"

All the counselors said something to each other, making Cao Cao a little uncertain.

After everyone finished speaking, Cao Cao finally looked at Xun Yu and asked, "Wen Ruo, what do you think we should do now?"

As Cao Cao's chief steward, Xun Yu has the most say in whether his family still has the strength to make the Northern Expedition.

Xun Yu stood up, clasped his hands and replied, "My lord, my subordinates don't think it's appropriate for us to start a war now, and we should rest and recuperate."

After sorting out his thoughts for a while, Xun Yu continued, "This subordinate makes this judgment for three main reasons.

One: Although we have won this battle, we have suffered heavy losses... Although there is still a surplus of food, the soldiers have been exhausted for half a year, and now almost everyone is wounded, morale is not high, and many people have lost their lives. Out of war weariness. "

Cao Cao nodded and motioned, "Continue."

"Secondly, as Zhong De said before, Yuan Shao was only defeated in the battle of Guandu in terms of military strategy, but his prestige, popularity, and popular support in the four prefectures of Hebei are still there, and he can pull up another 20 troops in an instant. .. If we want to make the Northern Expedition, we still have to find a more suitable time."

The two main points were stated, and everyone was already amazed.

Even Xu You, who had a high self-esteem on weekdays, faced a perfect man like Xun Yu, and couldn't help thinking that he was invincible.

"Thirdly, Liu Biao in Jingzhou has made some changes recently. The defenders in Xinye frequently tested our army's bottom line; Liu Ziyang in Lujiang also sent news that Sun Quan in Jiangdong has quelled the civil strife in recent days, and he has taken advantage of the trend to subdue the big and small families in Jiangdong. His ambition has gradually been revealed. "

"What Wen Ruo said is very true!" Cao Cao nodded and said with determination, "Everyone, you have worked hard to defeat Yuan Shao this time! However, if we want to completely eliminate Yuan Shao, we need to recharge our energy and find the right time.

Now, I will go back to Xuchang first, and cultivate for a while. "

"My lord is wise!"

Although Yuan Shao lost more than 40 troops, his foundation is still there, and Cao Cao himself also suffered heavy losses, so he has no strength to start the Northern Expedition now.

What they have to do now is to recharge their energy and store up their energy. After their vitality recovers, they can join Lu Bu in the Northern Expedition to Yuan Shao!

......

sweep the world

2Chapter 16 Who silently marked Yuan Shao with a cross

Yuan Shao was defeated, so quickly and so suddenly, that Lv Bu and Chen Gong had no defense at all.

In the big tent of Lu Bu's army, all the civil and military personnel were a little speechless.

Yuan Shao, with an army of more than [-], was defeated by Cao Cao, who had only [-] soldiers... Is Yuan Shao too stupid, or is Cao Cao too powerful?

Chen Gong was the first to speak out, "Marquis Wen, Yuan Shao retreated and returned to Jizhou. I'm afraid we won't be able to take down Pingyuan County..."

Chen Gong's tone contained both a tinge of rejoicing and a tinge of regret.

Fortunately for him, Lu Bu made the right bet, and he and others would not cause disasters because of the wrong line up; unfortunately, they had to spit out all the fat in their mouths.

I'm already back, so it's probably inappropriate to beat up his son again...

Moreover, the high-ranking officials in Bingzhou heard that Yuan Shao was defeated, and had already led an army of [-] to Jizhou to help Yuan Shao strengthen his courage. If he stayed in Jizhou at this time, he would really be looking for death...

After hearing Chen Gong's words, Lu Bu did not have the slightest regret, instead he laughed and said, "Cao Cao and Lu Yan joined forces to raid Wuchao, burned Yuan Shao's million stones of food and grass, and completely defeated Yuan Shao in both front and rear attacks!

I knew it!

With Lu Yan here, everything is possible!

Ha ha ha ha! "

When Chen Gong heard this, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Why do I feel that Marquis Wen, you have more confidence in Lu Hussar than in yourself?"

Lu Bu restrained his wanton laughter after hearing this, and replied: "Because, I saw in him the glimmer of hope that I was looking for!"

After thinking for a while, Chen Gong knew what Lu Bu was referring to. He shook his head and said, "But if Lu Hussar broke the precept by marrying the eldest lady, wouldn't he also have no hope at all?"

However, Lu Bu replied with a slightly deep smile: "There is no such thing as an absolute... state, and it is not uncommon for it to be broken or established. Who can say it clearly?"

Chen Gong stroked his beard, hehe said: "Forget it... Instead of worrying about their affairs, it's better to worry about our future situation."

Lu Bu nodded and asked, "Yuan Shao was defeated. Will Cao Cao take advantage of the victory to attack and eliminate Yuan Shao in one fell swoop?"

"Difficult!" Chen Gong shook his head, and said with a serious face: "Although Yuan Shao was defeated, he still has an army of 10,000+, and with the arrival of high-ranking officials... I think Cao Cao is more likely to cultivate for a while... After all, he has lost a lot."

"That's right...Cao Cao has captured countless prisoners, and his own economic strength is also developing rapidly. As long as he is given another two years, Cao Cao will not be afraid to confront Yuan Shao head-on at all." Wang Xiu said.

"Indeed." Lu Bu nodded in affirmation, and suddenly asked Chen Gong: "We have completely broken our faces with Yuan Shao, sir, may I trouble you to take a trip to Xuchang?"

Lu Bu clearly hoped to form an alliance with Cao Cao, and let Chen Gong go because he hoped that Chen Gong and Cao Cao could resolve their grievances.

Another meaning of Lu Bu, Chen Gong instantly understood.

Yuan Shao was defeated by Cao Cao, and Cao Cao is undoubtedly the most popular person who will be able to secure the world in the future.

Now that the situation has come to this point, Chen Gong is no longer obsessed with the position of the aristocratic family.Anyway, the Chen family and the Zhuge family lived well under the rule of Cao Cao. Sometimes it is not so difficult to accept a different way of life...

This trip to Xuchang, Chen Gong may also express the attitude of that part of the family he represents.

After figuring out the joint here, Chen Gong responded, "Here, my subordinate will go to Xuchang tomorrow, I hope Cao Cao won't tear me apart."

"Thank you Mr.... If Cao Cao dares to cut you into eight pieces, I will cut him into sixteen pieces!" Lu Bu joked with a smile, and then suddenly said: "If it is possible, sir Go to Chenliu?"

Chen Gong smiled and said: "Do you want the old man to look at the eldest lady for you?"

"Well... It's quite comfortable to see her live for me..."

"Understood, the old man will take good care of you, hahaha!"

......

In October of the third year of Jian'an, the news that Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao at Guandu shocked the world!

The students in the Tai Academy were all excited, talking loudly, with high spirits, and full of expectations for their future.

Zhuge Liang looked at the map of the thirteen prefectures of the Han Dynasty, and silently put a cross on Yuan Shao... On this map, the forces that once represented Yuan Shu, Gongsun Zan, Tao Qian and others had already been marked with the same cross.

Fazheng and Mengda "made an exception" today, and together with their rivals Yang Xiu and Cheng Wu, they hooked up shoulder to shoulder in the dormitory, singing loudly, and finally got drunk and passed out.

However, in contrast to the grand scene of gongs, drums and firecrackers all over the place under Cao Cao's rule, it was the silence and fear of other princes of the Han Dynasty.

Cao Cao actually defeated Yuan Shao's 40 army with [-] soldiers. Don't be too scary!

When Lu Yan returned to Chenliu, he handed over all government affairs to Mao Jie, military affairs to Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong and others, and he himself and Lu Lingqi started the mode of traveling in the mountains and rivers. The world of two people is very happy. .

After Cao Cao returned to Xuchang, he immediately started an academic discussion with Cai Yan. Cai Yan did not experiment, and the two talked for a whole night...

As for the rewards for meritorious deeds after the war, the court officials have their own plans, so there is no need for Lao Cao and others to worry about it.

......

After Yuan Shao's defeat at Guandu, he sadly returned to Yecheng, Jizhou.

After Yuan Shao returned to Jizhou, even though Tian Fengjushoudang was killed, the official reason given in the end was, "They made disrespectful remarks to their lord many times in the prison..."

The two wise men died unjustly in prison.

Yuan Shao's behavior made many people of insight see his character clearly, and began to choose to be wise and protect their lives.

For example, Xun Chen from the Xun family,

After he learned that Tian Feng and Ju Shou were killed by Yuan Shao, he resolutely gave up all his business in Jizhou, left Jizhou with his family overnight, and returned to his hometown in Yingchuan.

And Yuan Shao's various stupid behaviors almost completely cut off the possibility of his comeback...

After the defeat, Yuan Shao was in a very depressed mood, and his body was hurt by the rush of fire, so he used the excuse of recuperating his injuries to spend his whole day slacking off, enjoying himself and ignoring political affairs.
