However, Jia Xu knew Cao Cao's intention, so he wanted to follow the plan and go on. He said to Zhang Xiu, "I saw Cao Cao who was watching the city for three days. He saw the bricks and soil in the southeast corner of the city, both new and old, and most of the deer antlers were destroyed. He was about to attack from here, but he went to the northwest to accumulate grass, pretending to be a sign of momentum, and wanted to coax me to withdraw my troops to defend the northwest. He would climb the southeast corner while he was dark at night. Xiu said, "How can I do it?" Xu said, "This is easy. In the future, the strong soldiers will be full of food and light clothes, and they will be covered in the southeast houses, but they will teach the people to pretend to be soldiers and guard the northwest. At night, let him climb the city at the southeast corner. When he climbed into the city, a cannon sounded, and the ambushed soldiers would rise up together, and Cao could be captured." Xiuxiu was happy and followed his plan.

A long time ago, a horse was probing Cao Cao, saying that Zhang Xiu had withdrawn his troops at the northwest corner and shouted to defend the city, but the southeast was very empty. Cao said, "I'm going to do it!" He then ordered the army to prepare shovels and rush to climb the city. During the day, he only led the army to attack the northwest corner. At the second minute, he led the elite troops to climb over the trench in the southeast corner and cut off the deer antlers. There was no movement in the city, and the army rushed in together. Only a cannon sounded and ambushed soldiers rose up. Cao's army retreated quickly, and Zhang Xiu drove the brave and brave. Cao's army was defeated, retreated outside the city, and ran for dozens of miles. Zhang Xiu killed until the dawn to collect the army.

The city. Cao Cao planned to defeat the army, and lost more than 50,000 troops, and lost countless supplies. Lu Qian and Jin were injured. However, Jia Xu saw Cao's failure and left, so he urgently persuaded Zhang Xiu to write to Liu Biao and ask him to raise an army to intercept his retreat. After receiving the letter, he wanted to raise an army. Suddenly, he found that Sun Ce stationed his troops in Hukou. Kuai Liang said, "Chi stationed his troops in Hukou is Cao Cao's plan. Now Cao is newly defeated. If he does not take advantage of the situation, there will be troubles in the future." Biao ordered Huang Zu to defend the pass and lead his troops to Anzhong County to intercept Cao's retreat. On the other hand, he dated Zhang Xiu. Knowing that the soldiers of the army had already risen, he led his troops to attack Cao with Jia Xu.

Let’s talk about Cao’s army walking slowly. When he arrived in Xiangcheng and arrived in Qingshui, Cao suddenly burst into tears on the horse. Everyone asked the reason for this. Cao said, “I thought I had broken my general Dian Wei here last year, so I couldn’t help but cry!” So ​​he ordered the army to be stationed, and the sacrifice banquet was held to hold Dian Wei’s soul. Cao personally ate incense and cried, and all the three armies sighed. The ceremony was to worship Wei Bi, and to worship his nephew Cao Anmin and his eldest son Cao Ang, and to worship the dead soldiers. Even the Dayuan horse that was shot to death also offered sacrifices. The next day, Xun Yu sent someone to report, “Liu Biao helped Zhang Xiu station troops and An and block my return road.” Cao replied to Yu’s letter, “I traveled several miles a day, but I didn’t know that the thieves came to chase me; but my plan was settled, and if I arrived at An and An, you would definitely destroy Xiu. Don’t doubt it.” Then he urged the army to reach the boundary of An and An counties. Liu Biao’s army was guarding the dangerous point, so Zhang Xiu then led the army to come. Cao ordered the army to

At night, he opened the road and hidden the strange soldiers. When it was dark, Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu's army met. Seeing that Cao had few soldiers, they suspected that Cao had fled and all led their troops into the dangerous attack. They controlled the strange soldiers and defeated the two families. Cao's army went out of the pass and rushed out of the pass. Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu each met with each other. Biao said, "Who did you expect to rebel against Cao Cao's treacherous plan. Xiu said, "Let's go and plan to chase him again." So the two armies gathered in Anzhong. Let's say that Xun Yu found out that Yuan Shao wanted to raise troops to attack Xu Du, so he ran to Cao Cao at night. Cao was panicked and returned to the army today. He reported to Zhang Xiu and Xiu wanted to chase him. Jia Xu said, "You can't chase him, you will be defeated if you pursue him." Liu Biao said, "If you don't chase him today, you will miss the opportunity." He persuaded Xiu to lead more than 10,000 troops to chase him. He walked about ten miles and caught up with the Cao army's rear team. Cao's army fought hard, and Xiu returned.

Xiu said to Xu, "Don't use Gong's words, it's true that there was such a defeat." Xu said, "Now you can gather your troops to chase him again." Xiu and Bao said, "Now you have been defeated, how can you chase him again?" Xu said, "Now you will be defeated, you will be able to win a great victory; if not, please behead my head." Xiu believed that Liu Biao was worried and refused to go together. Xiu led his army to chase him. Cao's troops were indeed defeated, and the army was fed and the baggage, and he left the road. Xiu was chasing forward. Suddenly, a army behind the mountain hurried out. Xiu did not dare to chase him forward, so he took back the army. Liu Biao asked Jia Xu, "There were elite soldiers to chase the troops, but the Duke said he would be defeated; the defeated soldiers attacked the victorious soldiers, but the Duke said he would definitely defeat: It was as if Gong's words were said. Why did the matters differ and they were all valid? I hope Gong Ming taught me." Xu said, "This is easy to know. Although the general is good at using troops, he is not the enemy of Cao Cao. Even though Cao's army was defeated, he must have a strong general to serve as the back hall.

Prevent the pursuit of the soldiers; although our troops are sharp, they cannot fight against them: therefore they know that they will be defeated. If Cao is eager to retreat, they will have to make up for it. After defeating our pursuers, they will return quickly and will not be prepared. I will pursue them even more: therefore they can win." Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu both obeyed his high opinion. Xu persuaded Biao to return to Jingzhou, and Xiu guarded Xiangcheng, thinking that the two armies were scattered. Let’s talk about Cao Cao’s journey between the front line, and heard that the rear army was chased by Xiu, and urgently led all the generals to turn back to rescue him. The defeated soldiers replied to Cao, "If it were not for the people and horses behind the mountain blocking the middle route, we would have been captured." Cao asked urgently who the man was dismounted. The man was dismounted and paid a visit to Cao Cao, and he was the general of the Central Army, a native of Pingchun, Jiangxia, with a surname of Li, and his name was Tong, and his courtesy name was Wenda. Cao asked where he came from. Tong said, "I heard that the Prime Minister and Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao fought, and came to pick him up."

Cao was happy and named him the Marquis of Jiangong and guarded the western border of Runan to prevent the beating. Li Tong thanked him and left. Cao returned to Xudu and reported to Sun Ce for his merits. He was granted the title of Marquis of Wu. He sent an envoy to Jiangdong to defend against Liu Biao.

Cao returned to the mansion and the officials met with Bi. Xun Yu asked, "The Prime Minister was walking slowly to An, how could he know that he would win the thief soldiers?" Cao said, "He has no way back and will fight to the death. I tempted him and secretly planned him to secretly, so I knew that he would win." Xun Yu was impressed. Guo Jia entered, and Cao said, "Why are you here?" Jiaxiu wrote a book, Bai Cao said, "Yuan Shao sent someone to write to the Prime Minister, saying that he wanted to send troops to attack Gongsun Zan, so he came to borrow food and soldiers." Cao said, "I heard that Shao wanted to visit Xudu, but now I see me coming back, and I will not have another question." So he dismantled the book and read it. Seeing that his words were arrogant, he asked Jia, "Yuan Shao was so ruthless. Yuan Shao was so shameless."

, I want to fight him, but I hate him for not being able to do it, how about?" Jia said: "Liu, Xiang was not defeated, the Lord knew. Emperor Gaozu was only wise and victorious, but Xiang Yu was strong, but he was finally captured. Now Shao has ten defeats, and Gong has ten victory, and Shao's army is strong, so he is not afraid: Shao Fan has many rituals, and Gong's body is natural, which is the way of victory; Shao uses rebellion and Gong's orders to follow suit, which is the righteous victory; Huan, since the spirit, his government has lost lenient power, and Shao has lenient power, and Gong's support is vigorous, which is the rule victory; Shao is generous outside and taboo inside, and he has many relatives, and he is simple outside and clear inside, and he uses talents to win; Shao has many plans and few decisions, and Gong will do it when he gets the strategy, which is the plan victory; Shao is specialized

Receive reputation, and treat others with sincerity, which is the virtue of virtue; Shao has the near and far, and the public is always far away, and he is always benevolent, which is the victorious of benevolence; Shao listens to slander and confusing, and the public is infiltrated, which is the victory of enlightenment; Shao is confused, and the public is strict and strict, which is the victory of writing; Shao likes to be a fool, and does not know the need for military force, and the public is defeated by a few soldiers, and uses military force as a god, which is the victory of martial arts. The public has these ten victories, so it is not difficult to defeat Shao." Cao laughed and said, "As the Gong said, "How can I bear it? 1 Xun Yu said, "Guo Fengxiao's ten victories and ten defeats are consistent with the fool's opinions. Although Shao's soldiers are numerous, why should he be afraid of you 1 Jia said, "Lu Bu in Xuzhou is really a big trouble."

. Now Shao is expeditioning Gongsun Zan in northern China. I should take advantage of his distance, first take Lu Bu, sweep the southeast, and then draw Shao, so I will be the master's plan; otherwise, if we attack Shao, Bu will take advantage of the opportunity to attack Xudu, which will cause great harm." Cao said, and then discussed the eastern expedition of Lu Bu. Xun Yu said, "You can send someone to ask Liu Bei first, and wait for his return before you can move troops." Cao followed him, and while sending a letter to Xuande, he sent Shao envoy, and submitted a letter to confer Shao as the general, the Grand Marshal, and the governor Ji, Qing, You, and the four states. He wrote a secret letter to reply, "You can challenge Gongsun Zan. I should help you." Shao was overjoyed and advanced to attack Gongsun Zan.

Let’s talk about Lu Bu in Xuzhou. Whenever guests have a banquet, Chen Gui and his son would praise Bude. Chen Gong was unhappy and told Bu, "Chen Gui and his son are flattering the generals, and their hearts are unpredictable. You should be good at guarding them." Bu shouted angrily and said, "You are slandering for no reason and want to harm good people?" Gong came out and sighed, "If you don’t follow your loyal words, you will suffer a disaster!" He wanted to abandon Bu, but he couldn’t bear it; he was afraid that he would be laughed at. He was depressed all day long. One day, he led several cavalry to the ground of Xiaopei to hunt and relieve his depression. Suddenly, he saw a horse riding on the official road and galloping forward. Gong suspected that, abandoned the yard and led him to the yard.

The cavalry caught up from the small road and asked, "Where is your mission?" The envoy knew that it was Lu Bu's subordinates, so he couldn't answer. Chen Gong ordered his body to search for him and got Xuande to answer a secret letter from Cao Cao. The palace immediately connected with the people and saw Lu Bu. Bu asked him why. The envoy said, "Prime Minister Cao sent me to Liu Yuzhou to write a book. Now I have to reply to the book, but I don't know what is said in the book." Bu then disassembled the book and read it carefully. The book briefly said, "I want to visit Lu Bu after Ming's orders, but I dare not work hard day and night. But I have few soldiers and few generals, so I dare not move lightly. Prime Minister Xing should be the leader. Be cautious in the army and be patient with the army, and wait for the order of the junior."

When Lu Bu saw this, he cursed and said, "How dare you do this!" He then beheaded the envoy. He first sent Chen Gong and Zang Ba to join the Taishan gang Sun Guan, Wu Dun, Yin Li, Chang Xi to seize the counties of Yanzhou, Shandong in the east. He ordered Gao Shun and Zhang Liao to seize Peicheng and attack Xuande. He ordered Song Xian and Wei Xu to seize Ru and Ying. Bu was the general army to rescue the three routes.

Let’s talk about Gao Shun and others leading troops out of Xuzhou and were about to Xiaopei. Someone reported to Xuande. Xuande was eager to discuss with the crowd. Sun Qian said, “Can you tell Cao Cao quickly.” Xuande said, “Who can go to Xudu and ask for emergency?” The person at the foot came out and said, “I want to go.” He looked at him and was a fellow villager from Xuande, whose surname was Jian, whose name was Yong and whose courtesy name was Xianhe. He is now Xuande Mubin. Xuande immediately wrote a book to pay Jianyong, and sent Xingye to Xudu for help. At the same time, he rectified the equipment to guard the city. Xuande guarded the south gate, Sun Qian guarded the north gate, Yun Chang guarded the west gate, Zhang Fei guarded the east gate, and ordered Mi Zhu and his younger brother Mi Fang.

Guarding the central army. It turned out that Mi Zhu had a sister who married Xuande as his second wife. Xuande and his brother had a relative of a uncle, so he ordered him to guard the central army to protect his wife and young. Gao Shun's army arrived. Xuande asked on the enemy's building, "I have no gap with Fengxian, why did you lead troops here?" Shun said, "You have a connection with Cao Cao and want to harm my lord. Now that things have been revealed, why don't you tie it up!" After saying that, he led the army to attack the city. Xuande stayed in the door and refused to leave. The next day, Zhang Liao led his troops to attack the western gate. Yun Chang said to him on the city, "The courtesy is not a common person, why should he be with the thief?" Zhang Liao lowered his head and said without saying a word.

Yun Chang knew that this man had loyalty and righteousness, and did not add to his bad words, nor did he go out to fight. Liao led his troops to retreat to the east gate, so Zhang Fei went out to fight. Someone had already reported to Guan Gong. When Guan Gong rushed to the east gate, he saw that Zhang Fei was leaving the city and Zhang Liao's army had retreated. Fei wanted to chase him, but Guan Gong rushed into the city. Fei said, "He retreated because he was afraid, why not chase him." Guan Gong said, "This man's martial arts is not inferior to you and me. Because I was moved by righteous words, I felt quite regretful, so I did not fight with us." Fei realized and only ordered the soldiers to guard the city gate, let alone go out to fight.

However, Jian Yong came to Xudu to see Cao Cao and said that he had mentioned the past. Cao immediately gathered a group of advisers to discuss, "I want to attack Lu Bu, but I am not worried about Yuan Shao's restraint, but I am afraid that Liu Biao, and Zhang Xiu will discuss his descendants." Xun You said, "The two people have been defeated and they dare not move lightly. Lu Bu is brave. If he is brave, he will be connected with Yuan Shu and cross the Huai and Si, and it will be difficult to plan." Guo Jia said, "Now we can take advantage of the initial rebellion, but the people have not attached themselves, so we will attack him quickly." Cao followed his words. He ordered Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan, Lu Qian and Li Dian to lead 50,000 troops to lead him to rule himself.

The army advanced one after another, and Jian Yong followed him. He had already visited the horse to report Gao Shun. Shunfei reported to Lu Bu. Bu Xianshi Hou Cheng, Hao Meng, and Cao Xing led more than 200 cavalry to support Gao Shun, and sent him to thirty miles away from Pei City to meet Cao's army. He led the army to follow him. Xuande saw Gao Shun retreating in Xiaopei City. He knew that Cao's soldiers had arrived, so he only left Sun Qian to guard the city, Mi Zhu and Mi Fang to guard the family, but he and Guan and Zhang Gong all brought troops out of the city and went to the camp to meet Cao's army. However, Xiahou Dun led the army forward, and was the righteous.

When he met Gao Shun's army, he pushed his gun and fought. Li Shun met the enemy. The two horses intersected and fought for forty or fifty rounds. Gao Shun could not resist the enemy and was defeated. Dun rode his horse to chase him and walked around the formation. Dun refused to let go, and he also chased him around the formation. Cao Xing saw him secretly picked up the bow and arrow, and looked at him with a friendly arrow, and shot him with an arrow, hitting Xiahou Dun's left eye. Dun shouted and pulled the arrow with his hand. He did not want to pull out his eyes. He shouted, "Father's sperm and mother's blood, so he should not be abandoned. He then took it into his mouth and ate it, but he still

He then pushed his gun and rode his horse and attacked Cao Xing. He was not as good as guarding, and was shot through his face and died under the horse. The soldiers on both sides were shocked when they saw it. Xiahou Dun killed Cao Xing, and then returned. Gao Shun followed behind and led his troops to join the army. Cao's soldiers were defeated. Xiahou Yuan rescued his brother and left. Lu Qian and Li Dian general defeated the army and retreated to Jibei to set up a camp. Gao Shun won and led his army to fight back against Xuande. Just as Lu Bu's army also arrived, Bu and Zhang Liao and Gao Shun divided their troops into three groups to attack Xuande, Guan and Zhang three villages.
