Compared with the tragedy, it is also extremely tragic in another water area. Although there are no charred corpses or scalded corpses above this water area, this water area is filled with blood. It was dyed red, and the entire Yangtze River was full of corpses, and it was impossible to see the end at a glance. Some places where the Yellow River was relatively narrow were cut off by these corpses. .
This is the Yellow River, and here is the confrontation between Cao Cao's 30,000 navy and Yuan Shao's 100,000 navy outside Guandu.
"Hmph, damn it, damn it!" In the camp of the chief general of the Yuan Shao Shui Army, a handsome middle-aged man was losing his temper. He hacked up the entire camp, what coffee table, what pen, ink, paper and inkstone All were scattered on the ground, and there was even a bloody corpse lying on the ground.
The middle-aged man who got angry this time was General Yuan Shao Yuan Benchu! Of course he was angry, not only was he furious, but he was still in a state that was difficult to control, because the water battle that took place in the Battle of Guandu yesterday, the record he played was really unbelievable, Cao Cao's 30,000 sailors only had a few When 2,000 men and horses returned alive, the rest died in battle on the Yangtze River. It stands to reason that Yuan Shao should be very happy, because Cao Cao only has a total of 100,000 pieces, and he besieged Guandu in one month, and Cao Cao lost 30,000. People and horses, now there are less than 2,000 of the 30,000 sailors left, and the 2,000 will have to be discounted, because most of them are seriously wounded, and even if they are rescued, it is impossible to go to the battlefield again.
But Yuan Shao really couldn't be happy, he was even furious, he wanted to kill, he wanted to kill! Because of his 100,000 navy, a whole 100,000 army, now he can't even make up a battalion, how many people are in a battalion! Five thousand people! The 100,000 army did not even have 5,000 soldiers. You said Yuan Shao was angry or not. Even if Sun Ce fought so badly in Wancheng, the 100,000 army was almost wiped out, but there were still 5,000 troops brought back! Moreover, these 5,000 troops are still the main force of Sun Ce's army, but now Yuan Shao's 5,000 troops are all wounded. It can be said that they can no longer participate in the Battle of Guandu and need to be transported to the rear! Sun Ce lost 100,000 troops, that is, Sun Ce had climbed the city wall of Wancheng, but he, Yuan Shao, hadn't even touched the side gate of Guandu!
"Mr. Cao, Cao Aman, I am going to kill you!" Yuan Shao's anger, no one knew Yuan Shao's dissatisfaction.
"Master Ju!" A middle-aged scribe outside Yuan Shao's big tent heard the movement inside and walked outside the big tent, and the guards outside the big tent hurriedly shouted.
"My lord! Is it still the same!" Ju Shou asked his personal guards. Yuan Shao was in this kind of anger when he returned from the battle yesterday. He didn't eat any tea or rice. The person who ate some food was also beheaded by Yuan Shao with a sword.
"Report to the military adviser, the lord has always been like this!" The guards were also very distressed. Yuan Shao's moodiness made them very scared. If he didn't do it, he might be cut off with a single knife. Companion is like a tiger. , if you don't care about the lord, you will be said to be dereliction of duty and you may be thrown into prison if you don't care about the lord. The lord went too far. When Yuan Shao was furious, he asked Yuan Shao if he wanted to eat. He thought he was flattering and caring about the lord. Who knew that the horse was photographed on the horse's tail! He was directly slashed by the angry Yuan Shao with a single sword. If it was so good, it wouldn't even count as death in battle, and everyone in the family might be implicated when he went back.
"Hey!" Ju Shou also sighed, in fact, he can't blame Yuan Shao, if he was Yuan Shao, he would be furious right now! Jushou's thoughts couldn't help recalling the scene of that day.
At dawn that day, Grandma Cao's army began to march above the Yellow River. Yuan Shao was overjoyed. He was worrying about how to break through the tortoise shell at Guandu. Grandma Cao came out here by himself. Isn't that true? die! If Yuan Shao took Guandu in Guandu's tortoise shell, it would take several months or even a stalemate, but Cao Cao ran out by himself, Yuan Shao was happy, and even went out to fight in person.
The 100,000 sailors were straddling the Yellow River to cover the sky, while there were only 30,000 Cao troops on the opposite side. Although most of Yuan Shao's troops were from the north, the northerners didn't know water, and the 100,000 sailors were Yuan Shao's own eldest son from Qingzhou. From Yuan Tan's place, there are also a few places in Jizhou near the Yellow River. It can be said that they are not elite, but for the purpose of going to the Central Plains, these navy troops are also well-trained.
And Grandma Cao's navy is not well-known, basically they are generals, and there are few generals in the navy, they are all unknown. After all, Grandma Cao's territory is also dominated by land warfare, such as Zhili Xuzhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou and the like, the real elite of the navy and the overlord of the navy are above the Yangtze River. If Lao Cao had elite sailors and elite sailor generals, he would not have to use Zhang Yun and Cai Mao to train the navy in the battle of Chibi in the future, and he would not be killed by Zhou Yu's countermeasures. After killing the two, no one helped him train the navy.
In this way, two half-sized sailors went to war in the Yellow River Basin. They are both a virtue, swimming, and fighting. But the overall strength of the warships will be discounted. A quality soldier, then who is the comparison There are many people.
Yuan Shao, who had an army of 100,000 troops, naturally laughed. When the whole army came up, he wanted to crush Mrs. Cao into scum, capture Mrs. Cao alive, and use Mrs. Cao to persuade the remaining 40,000 troops in Guandu to surrender. Yuan Shao is very proud! Half of the Central Plains can be pacified in one battle.
Sure enough, Yuan Shao's army started to move. They showed the momentum of the whole army pressing forward. Everyone charged with all their strength. You must know that there are only so many enemies. So some navy fleets started to get confused, but it doesn't matter, as long as the flags can correctly distinguish who is friendly and who is enemy! Anyway, after a round of bows and arrows, there is a boarding battle.
Yuan Shao's water army moved, but Cao's army remained motionless, and even turned the warship sideways, exposing the entire side of the warship in front of Yuan Shao's warship. At this time, there are three methods in the water army battle. The first hit, the second bow and arrow shooting, and the third is hand-to-hand combat! And if the warship is hit horizontally, one of the collision capabilities of the warship will disappear. Where is the most vulnerable part of a warship, it should be the center of the ship. You can see that every warship sinks basically at the middle. After being cut off and sinking into the sea or the river after disaster, Cao Cao’s navy turned the warship sideways, and immediately there was a series of laughing voices, saying that Cao Cao is looking for death, is it the next one? It might be a white flag.
Jushou also thinks so, because he also knows some essentials of naval warfare. You don’t want to put a strong bow, but you must put your weakness in front of others. This is not courting death. He rushed towards Grandma Cao's navy.
I don't know why, seeing Cao Cao's calm expression and those motionless warships of Cao Jun, the uncomfortable feeling in Jushou's heart rose again.
"My lord! I thought that our army should send out vanguard troops to try out one or two! Just in case there is a fraud!" Jushou was very cautious. He expressed his thoughts to Yuan Shao, naturally he didn't know what the other party was doing. Then send a tentative force, even if it is lost, it will only be a dozen warships and thousands of people!
"Cheat? Haha!" Yuan Shao didn't care much, he didn't even care about Jushou's stiff tone that made him feel uncomfortable, because he was about to win a big victory, as long as he won Cao Cao, then Who else in the world can compete with Yuan Shao! This world is destined to be named Yuan.
Among the Three Kingdoms, it is said that Wei Yan was rebellious, but Wei Yan did not rebel against the Kingdom of Shu until his death. Among the Three Kingdoms, it was said that Lao Cao wanted to replace Han, but Lao Cao never proclaimed himself emperor in his life, even if he had the ability at that time Proclaimed emperor, but the fourth generation and third prince of the Yuan family really had rebellious bones in the back of their heads, and they really wanted to replace the Han Dynasty. It is not a lie to say that the Yuan family has rebellious bones in the back of their heads. When Yuan Shao was in Luoyang at the beginning, First, he was recommended to General He Jin. General He Jin is very optimistic about Yuan Shao, because he is the descendant of Tai Fu Yuan Kui. To give face to the Yuan family, Yuan Shao at that time really caught He Jin's eyes. He was handsome and had a strategy in his chest. The support of the Yuan family of four generations and three princes is really like adding wings to a tiger, but Yuan Shao and the Yuan family secretly hooked up with Shi Changshi in order to obtain greater benefits.
Afterwards, there was a great chaos in the palace, and Yuan Shao led soldiers and horses to kill the ten permanent attendants. Among the ten permanent attendants, Zhang Rang and others fled Luoyang with the young emperor and Liu Bian, the then king of Chenliu. Yuan Shao caught up with him. At that time, Dong Zhuo also arrived, and Dong Zhuo’s soldiers and horses were not much different from Yuan Shao’s, because Dong Zhuo’s large army did not come, and only the vanguard came. In the hands of Dong Zhuo!
But Yuan Shao left for himself, maybe to let the big man lose his deer, regardless of the young emperor, and left, which led to the abolition of the Han emperor, Dong Zhuo occupied the capital, Cao Cao assassinated Dong Zhuo after the disaster, and the Eighteenth Route The princes attacked Dong Zhuo. To tell the truth, if the eighteen princes really fought, Dong Zhuo would have been beaten back to his hometown in Xiliang to farm the land, but the eighteen princes have their own ghosts, they can fight and want to fight There are just a few people, one is Mrs. Cao, Mrs. Cao really wanted to serve the great man at that time, to help the man sweep the world, so Mrs. Cao fought very hard and desperately, even if the princes did not move, he himself The Qing soldiers went out to battle, and were ambushed by Dong Zhuo, almost unable to return.
The second one is Changsha Sun Jian and Sun Wentai. This man is not telling lies. If he is still alive, he may be another big prince. If he is in Jingzhou now, he will really change his master. This man is very brave in battle and is called Changsha. Tiger, the only time Lu Bu was beaten away was by Sun Jian's troops. Dong Zhuo even wanted to marry his daughter to Sun Jian's son in order to appease the tiger, but Sun Jian refused.
If Sun Jian continues to fight, Dong Zhuo will still go back to Xiliang to farm, but here comes the fun! In order for Yuan Shao to keep the world in chaos, it is also for his Yuan family to continue to fish in troubled waters. Even though his father, uncle, and family were all beheaded by Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao still stood still, and even his younger brother Yuan Shu was detained together. Sun Jian's military rations, what a fart if there is no military rations! The soldiers couldn't even eat enough to eat, so how could they fight? Sure enough, Sun Jian was defeated, and even lost a general. Sun Jian approached the Yuan brothers for an argument, and was fooled by one who was a prostitute and another who sang bad faces. Dong Zhuo burned Luoyang and fled to Chang'an. The Yuan brothers began to have ideas again. Hit! Sun Jian went to Luoyang and discovered the handed down jade seal. To be honest, Sun Jian’s death had nothing to do with the Yuan brothers. Even the Yuan brothers took more than half of the responsibility. It was the Yuan brothers who passed on the news of the handed down jade seal. Liu Biao of Jingzhou cut off Hu halfway and killed Sun Jian.
Sure enough, Yuan Shu and Yuan Gonglu, who later got the handed down jade seal, really proclaimed themselves emperor. Although they only did it for two or three years, it can be seen that the Yuan family had the idea of taking the Han and replacing it, didn't Yuan Shao? have! Of course he, Yuan Shao, can tell from the fact that he didn't pay attention to the Han Dynasty after he led the general, the Han Dynasty? In Yuan Shao's eyes, that's all. If Yuan Shao had the Han family in his heart, he would not have prepared to accept Yuan Shu after his younger brother Yuan Shu became emperor or after his defeat, just to get the handed down jade seal in Yuan Shu's hands. Otherwise, who would dare to accept that false emperor Yuan Shu? Even Liu Bei had formed an alliance with Yuan Shao at that time, but he still didn't dare to let Yuan Shu pass through his territory because he was afraid of losing his reputation.
If it is true that Yuan Shao defeated Cao Cao and took down Guandu Xudu in history, then the great man might have perished since then, let alone the Three Kingdoms and the revival of the Han Dynasty.
Now Yuan Shao is only a little away from that position, how can he not be excited! Decades of hard work and decades of planning are all for one step! The great Han Dynasty has been around for hundreds of years, but his Yuan family's country cannot last for hundreds of years! You must know that the great ancestor Liu Bang was just an oily ruffian, just a mere pavilion chief, but he Yuan Shao was the fourth generation and three princes. Such a person can win the Han Dynasty, let alone Yuan Shao.
"Guangping! You are worrying too much!" Yuan Shao said to Jushou with a smile, this kind of smile really made Jushou a little surprised because since Yuan Shao took Hebei! No, it should be said that after defeating Gongsun Zan, Jushou never saw such a smile on Yuan Shao's face again.
Yuan Shao was originally the prefect of Bohai Sea. The real master of Jizhou was Han Fu, and Jushou was also Han Fu's mate. At that time, Yuan Shao wanted to get the support of those famous people. kind of attention.
The reason why Jushou and Tian Feng chose Yuan Shao and abandoned Han Fu was because of Yuan Shao's smile. At that time, Yuan Shao really confided in himself! He asked Jushou and Tian Feng about all matters, big and small, and even his youngest son Yuan Shang's calligraphy was helped by Jushou.
But ever since Gongsun Zai was defeated, Yuan Shao has changed, he is no longer that virtuous corporal, that smiling lord, he treats Tian Feng with respect, and he starts to talk about everything, to the point where he has nothing to say now , and even felt disgusted, Tian Feng was thrown into prison by Yuan Shao.
And now, more than ten years later, Jushou saw this kind of smile again.
"Guangping, look, the width of the waters of the Yellow River is only tens of meters, and there is no vegetation to cover it. How can he cheat Cao Cao! Besides, didn't you tell me about your information in Guangping! There are only ten people under Cao Aman's command in Guandu. Thousands of soldiers and horses, Cao Aman lost more than 30,000 troops under this month's strong attack, so he only has 70,000 horses left! Even if he has all 70,000 horses, I, Yuan Shao, have no fear. If the whole army is wiped out, then I, Yuan Shao, will win." Yuan Shao is truly ambitious! What Yuan Shao said is true, if Cao Cao pulls out all the 70,000 troops to fight, even if Yuan Shao loses all the 100,000 sailors in his hands, as long as he can destroy the 70,000 people, he will be the winner, because losing After paying the 100,000 yuan, Yuan Shao still has 150,000 yuan! Isn't it enough for an army of 150,000 to take over half of the Central Plains!
"En!" Jushou didn't know whether he was influenced by Yuan Shao's smile or Yuan Shao's words, and he just nodded without thinking too much. Yuan Shao has money, he can afford it!
But who knows! Yuan Da's crow's sentence that the whole army was wiped out has really become a reality! (To be continued.)
