Chapter 20 Chapter Eighteen

[The general is planning but not being brave. Jia Xuzhi knows the enemy and knows himself, and decides the victory and defeat. This is sincere and kind.As for Guo Jia's discussion of Yuan and Cao's merits and demerits, he dispelled Cao's doubts, and did not reduce the words of the Marquis of Huaiyin on the altar.If Xiahou Dun draws his arrows and eats the sky, it is only a warrior's ability, not enough.Ten victories and ten defeats are true, but I am the only one who wins by benevolence and victorious by virtue.What is the benevolence and virtue of a husband?False benevolence is not benevolence, and city virtue is not virtue.But in those days, talent wins and skill wins ears.

Cao Zhi cried for Dian Wei, not for Dian Wei.Crying for Dian Wei who is dead, and Dian Wei who is not dead, all are grateful.This is not where Cao Cao is loyal, but where Cao Cao is a traitor.Or say: Although a traitor is a traitor, how can he be so tearful?Yu replied, "He cried for Dianwei in his mouth, but in his heart he cried for his dead son and niece. Do I know that? Soldiers come one after another.This book should be written first, and the second one should not be written; this book should be written later, and the first one should not be written.Cao Cao wanted to attack Yuan Shao, but he was afraid of Lu Bu's suggestion, so he abandoned Shao and attacked Bu.After Bu Jiping, I can set my ambitions on Yuan Shao with peace of mind.From then on, it can't be messed up.

What a coincidence!When the art side attacks the cloth, it assists the cloth to attack the art, fearing that the cloth will be reconciled with the cloth; if the cloth is broken, it is necessary to prepare and attack the cloth, knowing that the art will never reconcile with the cloth.When Bei and Bu intersect, Cao Cao suffers deeply; when Yuan and Lu intersect, Cao Cao suffers even more.Now that the equipment is separated, the technique is also separated, and then the cloth can be planned.So scheming, so unbelievable. 】 But Jia Xu knew Cao Cao's intentions, so he did what he wanted to do.It is said that Zhang Xiu said: A certain man saw Cao Cao walking around the city for three days.He saw that the bricks and earth in the southeast corner of the city were old and new, and most of the antlers were destroyed. He intended to attack from here, but he went to the northwest to accumulate grass, pretending to be a show of force, and wanted to coax me to withdraw my troops and defend the northwest.He will climb the southeast corner and enter when the night is dark. [What is imaginary is real, and what is real is false, Jia Sheng has long seen through. 】 Xiu said: But what can I do?Xu said: This is an easy matter.In the coming day, the strong soldiers can be well fed and lightly armed, and they can be hidden in the southeast house.But he taught the people to pretend to be soldiers and guard the northwest.At night, let him climb the city on the southeast corner; when he climbed into the city, a cannon rang, and the ambushes rose up, so he could be captured. [To wait for fraud with deceit is to use tricks. 】 Embroidery likes to follow its plan.A scout had reported to Cao Cao earlier, saying that Zhang Xiu had withdrawn his troops to the northwest corner, shouting to defend the city, but the southeast was empty.Cao cao said, "it's my plan!" [Who knows the opposite plan. ] So he ordered the army to prepare spades, shovels, and climbing equipment.During the day, we only led the army to attack the northwest corner, but at the second watch, we led the elite soldiers to climb across the trench on the southeast corner and cut off the antlers.There was no movement in the city, and all the troops rushed in together.Only one cannon was heard, and ambushes were everywhere.Cao Jun quickly retreated.Behind Zhang Xiu personally drives bravely to kill.Cao Jun was defeated, retreated outside the city, and ran for dozens of miles.Zhang Xiu continued to fight until dawn, when Fang received his army and entered the city.Cao Cao planned to defeat the army, losing more than 50,000 soldiers and countless supplies; Lu Qian and Yu Jin were all injured. [These are all think tanks in the city. But Jia Xu said that when he saw that he was defeated, he hurriedly persuaded Zhang Xiu to leave a letter to Liu Biao, so that he could send troops to cut off his retreat.If you get the book, you want to raise an army.Suddenly Tan Ma Bao: Sun Ce stationed troops at Hukou. [Should be before. 】 Kuai Liang said: Cao Cao's strategy is to station troops at Hukou.If you don't take advantage of the momentum to attack this new defeat, you will surely suffer in the future. [Kuai Liang's wisdom was not born in Jia. Biao Nai ordered Huang Zu to guard the pass, and led his troops to Anzhong County to cut off the rear.One side is dating Zhang Xiu.Knowing that the Biao soldiers had risen, they led the troops to attack Cao with Jia Xu.

Let's say that Cao Jun moves slowly, "If you deliberately move slowly, you will know that there is a plan." 】When they arrived at Xiangcheng and Feishui, Cao suddenly burst into tears immediately. [The villain is cute. 】People were surprised and asked why, Cao said: I think I defeated my general Dian Wei here last year, and I can't help but cry! [This old soldier is accustomed to using Sifa. ○ Mrs. Zou doesn't know where she is, so she should cry. ] Because of this, he immediately ordered the army and horses to be stationed, and a large sacrificial feast was held to pay homage to Dian Wei's dead soul.Cao personally held incense and cried and worshiped, and all the three armies sighed. [The reason why he personally held incense and cried and worshiped was about to make all the three armies sigh. 】At the ceremony of offering sacrifices to Wei Bi, Fang offered sacrifices to his nephew Cao Anmin and his eldest son Cao Ang. 】And offer sacrifices to the fallen soldiers, 【Not for the dead, but for the living. 】Even the shot Dawan horse was sacrificed. [It's not for horses, it's about touching people. ○Come to narrate this passage while I am busy, refer to the previous article, it is wonderful. 】The next day, Xun Yu suddenly sent someone to report: "Liu Biao helped Zhang Xiu set up troops to calm the people, and stopped me from returning."Cao replied to Yu's book, saying: "I travel several miles a day, but I don't know that thieves are chasing me."However, my plan has been decided, if I go to Anzhong, I will definitely break the embroidery.Don't doubt it. [A clever calculation is determined first, but at this time it is not clear. ] Then he urged the army to march.At the boundary of Anzhong County, Liu Biao's army had already defended the critical point, Zhang Xiu then led the army to come.Cao Nai ordered the army to dig a dangerous way in the dark and ambush the strange soldiers. [Before climbing the city in the dark night, I fell into the plan of one another; today, digging danger in the dark night, he also fell in my plan of ambush: it is really wonderful. When the sky was getting dark, Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu joined forces. Seeing that Cao Cao had few soldiers, he suspected that Cao was fleeing.Manipulate the strange soldiers to go out and break the soldiers of the two families.Cao Bing went out of Anzhong Jiekou and fortified outside the pass. [The other side cuts off the danger, I can escape the danger.The so-called using soldiers like gods. 】Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu met each other with their defeated soldiers.The watch said: When will you oppose Cao Cao's treacherous schemes!Embroidery said: Let's draw it again.So the two armies gathered in Anzhong.

Let's say that Xun Yu found out that Yuan Shao wanted to raise troops to invade Xudu, so he wrote a letter to Cao Cao in the starry night.I was so flustered that I returned to the army immediately.Make detailed reports to Zhang Embroidery, and Embroidery wants to chase after him.Jia Xu said: "Don't pursue it, if you pursue it, you will lose." [The reason why it must be defeated will not be mentioned. 】Liu Biao said: If you don't pursue today, you will miss your chance.He urged Xiu to lead more than ten thousand troops to pursue him.After traveling for more than ten miles, I caught up with Cao Jun's rear team.Cao Jun fought hard, and the Xiu and Biao armies were defeated and returned. 【Those who intercept go around the front, and those who pursue follow behind.If you go around the front, you won't win, but if you go after the back, you should win, but if you can't win, it's really unexpected. 】Xiu Weixu said: If you don't use public words, you will be defeated.Xu said: "Now we can organize our troops and go after him." [Strange language is like a play. 】 Embroidery and Biao both said: "It has been defeated now, how can we pursue it again?"Xu said: "If you pursue now, you will surely win a big victory."If not, please behead me. [The reason why it must win, let's not say it. 】Embroidered letter. [Thanks to Thaksin. ] Liu Biao was suspicious and refused to go with him.Xiu Nai leads an army to chase after him, [Xiu Nai believes in Xu's words, so Xu can't bear to abandon them. ] Cao Bing was really defeated, and the army, horses, luggage, scattered and left along the road. [Do not narrate the battle, only narrate the defeat, save pen. ○ After one defeat, Cao Bing suddenly won two victories; after two victories, he lost again: readers were surprised. 】Xiu was chasing forward, and suddenly a Biao army rushed out from behind the mountain,【Not to mention He Jun here, I will make it up later.Narrative changes. 】 Xiu did not dare to chase forward, so he withdrew his army and returned to Anzhong.Liu Biao asked Jia Xu, "In the past, the elite soldiers chased the retreating troops, and the Duke said they would be defeated; later, the defeated soldiers defeated the soldiers, and the Duke said they would conquer them: everything is exactly as the public says."Why are things different but all tested?May Gongming teach me. [Readers are also eager to ask for advice. 】 Xu said: This is easy to know.Although the general is good at using troops, he is not Cao Cao's opponent.Even if Cao Cao's army is defeated, he must have the strength to serve as the back hall to prevent chasing troops. Although our soldiers are sharp, we cannot fight against them, so we know that we will lose.Husbands who are eager to retreat must have something to do.After breaking my pursuit of the army, I will return at a light speed, and I will no longer be prepared.I took advantage of his unpreparedness and pursued him even more, so I was able to win. [Because you must lose and you must win, it has been explained so far that the pursuit of the former is in Cao Cao's predictions, and the pursuit of the latter is not in Cao Cao's predictions.If you talk about it, you can see it. 】Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu both obeyed his advice. [It is not special to show or embroider clothes, even Cao Cao should also wear them. 】Xu persuaded Biao to return to Jingzhou and embroider and guard Xiangcheng, thinking of his lips and teeth.The two armies dispersed.

Let's say that when Cao Cao was walking, he heard that the rear army was being chased by Xiu, and hurriedly led the generals to turn around to rescue him. 【Add to what I haven't mentioned in the previous article, okay. ] I saw that the embroidered army had retreated.The defeated soldiers told Cao Cao, "If the road behind the mountain hadn't blocked the middle road, we would all have been captured." [Numbers are well embellished in the mouth of the defeated army. ] Cao hurriedly asked who.That man got off his horse with a spear and paid homage to Cao Cao. He was General Zhenwei Zhonglang, a native of Pingchun, Jiangxia.At this point, the name is narrated. 】Cao asked why.Tong said: "Stay close to Runan. When I heard that the prime minister was fighting with Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao, I came here to meet you."Cao Xi, enfeoffed him as the Marquis of Jiangong, and guarded the western boundary of Runan to prevent appearance and embroidery. 【Come suddenly, go immediately, no need to write. 】Li Tong thanked him and left.Cao returned to Xudu, and praised Sun Ce for his meritorious service. He was named General of Rebellion and Marquis of Wu.Send envoys to Jiangdong to order to prevent and suppress Liu Biao.When Cao returned to the mansion, all the officials visited Bi, and Xun Yu asked: "The prime minister walked slowly to Anzhong, how did he know that he would win the bandit soldiers?" [Readers should also ask for advice. 】 Cao said: "There is no way for him to retreat, and he will fight to the death. I lure him slowly and plan secretly, so I know he will win." [What was said in the old book is not explained until now. ○There was Jia Xu’s discussion of war before, and now there is Cao Cao’s discussion of war, which can be regarded as a book on war. 】Xun Yu bowed down.

When Guo Jia came in, Cao Cao said, "Why is it late when you come here?"Jiaxiu published a letter to Bai Cao saying: Yuan Shao sent someone to write to the prime minister, saying that he wanted to send troops to attack Gongsun Zan, so he came here to borrow food and troops.Cao said: "I heard that Shao wanted to plot Xu's capital. Now that I see me returning, don't make any other comments."So I opened the book and looked at it, and saw the arrogance of its words. [Sui Li Mi wrote a letter to Li Yuan, the meaning of the word is arrogant, and Yuan Bei's word answered it.Today Shaozheng is similar to Mimi. Nai asked Jia, saying: "Yuan Shao is so shapeless, I want to fight against him, but I can't hate him, what's the matter?"Jia said: "Liu and Xiang are invincible, as we all know." [Hiddenly waits for Gaozu. 】Gao Zu was only wise enough to win, but Xiang Yu was captured despite being strong.Today Shao has ten defeats, and the public has ten victories, [Miao Lun. 】Although Shao Bing is prosperous, there is nothing to be afraid of: Shao has many etiquettes, and the common style is natural, this way wins; 【The great hero does not stick to the details.Shao claimed that he had four generations and three fathers, so he took Fanli as his family number.I don't know the son of Taiyuan, but he doesn't wear clothes or shoes. 】Shao uses rebellion to move, and the public uses obedience, this righteousness wins; 】Since Huan and Ling, the government has been defeated by lenient, Shao has used lenient relief, and the public has used fierce corrections, and this rule has won; 】Shao is lenient on the outside and taboo on the inside, he has many relatives, the public is simple and the inside is clear, and the only way to employ people is to win. also. 】Shao has more plans and less decisions, and the public has the strategy and action, and this plan wins; 【This is the first advantage and disadvantage of Yuan and Cao. 】Shao only collects reputation, and treats people with sincerity, 【Not necessarily. 】This virtue wins; 】Shao Shi is near and far away, and public concerns are all in place, this benevolence wins; 【What kind of benevolence is there?But the day is better than the ear. 】Shao listened to slander and confusion, but public infiltration can't do it, so Ming wins; ] Confusion between right and wrong, public laws and strict laws, this article wins; 】Shao Hao is a vain power, he does not know the essentials of the army, the public conquers the crowd with a small number, and uses the army like a god, this is also the victory of the army. [For example, in the later article, Yuan Shaochi called for Cao Cao, but stopped his troops and did not advance; but Cao Cao could defeat Shao's 800,000 soldiers with a crowd of 100,000. 】The public has these ten victories, and there is no difficulty in defeating Shao. [Summary. ○The above only mentioned the ten victories of Cao Cao, but the ten defeats of Shao have been mentioned in the middle. 】Cao said with a smile: as the public said, how can I be alone!Xun Yu said: Guo Fengxiao's theory of ten victories and ten defeats is in line with my humble opinion.Although there are many soldiers in Shaoxing, why should we be afraid?Jia said: "Lv Bu in Xuzhou is in serious trouble."Now that Shao is attacking Gongsun Zan in the north, I should take advantage of it and go out, first take Lu Bu, sweep the southeast, and then Tu Shao, that is the best plan.Otherwise, if we attack Shao, Bu will take advantage of the emptiness to attack Xudu, and the damage will not be shallow. [After counting Chen's ten victories and ten defeats, readers will definitely say that they are attacking Shao, but they suddenly want to give up Shao and attack Bu, which is unexpected. 】Following his words, he discussed the eastward expedition to Lu Bu.Xun Yu said: You can first send someone to make an appointment with Liu Bei, and wait for his return before you can mobilize troops. [Follow the line for the missing book. 】Cao Congzhi issued a letter to Xuande and dispatched Shao envoys generously. He made Shao a general, a lieutenant, and governor of Ji, Qing, You, and the four prefectures.I should help. 【Crafty. 】 Shao Deshu was overjoyed, so he sent troops to attack Gongsun Zan. [It is invincible. 】

Let's say that Lü Bu was in Xuzhou, whenever guests had a banquet, Chen Gui and his son would call him Bude. [That's all it takes to treat Lu Bu. 】Chen Gong was displeased, so he took the time to tell Bu: "Chen Gui and his son flatter the general in front of him, his heart is unpredictable, so we should take precautions against it." [Anyone who flatters others is one who counts others.Chen Gui and his son are role models. 】Bu anger scolded and said: You slander for no reason, wanting to harm good people? [When you hear loyal words, you will be angry and offer slander, and if you hear flattery, you will believe that you are a good person: Fengxian is a dream.Although, the world is like worshiping the ancestors, and many people are recovering. 】Gong Chu sighed and said: If the faithful words do not enter, our generation will suffer!He wants to abandon Bubu and go elsewhere, but he can't bear it, and he is afraid of being laughed at. 【If you go at this time, who will laugh at you?It's ridiculous if you can't quote it. ] I am depressed all day long.One day, I led several riders to hunt in Xiaopei to relieve my boredom. Suddenly I saw a post horse riding on the official road and galloped forward. [Such interspersed delivery is wonderful. 】Gong suspected it, abandoned the paddock, and led his cavalry to catch up with him from the small path. [The word "Xiaolu" is very thin, and it is just saying the word "Shangguandao". 】Question: Where is your mission?The messenger knew that he was a member of Lu Bu's subordinates, so he was too flustered to answer. 【good. 】Chen Gong ordered him to be searched, and Xuande answered Cao Cao's secret letter. [Cao Cao’s secret letter was taken from Xuande’s back hall the day before yesterday; today Xuande’s reply letter was obtained by Chen Gong halfway.After all, I haven't seen a reply letter before, and I haven't seen an incoming card today, so I always see half of them. 】 Gong Jilian people and books, take them to see Lv Bu.Bu asked why.The envoy said: "Prime Minister Cao sent me to write a letter to Liu Yuzhou. Now I have to answer the letter. I don't know what it says in the book." [The envoy is on the way, where is the sender hiding the truth from Yuyan? ○I can’t answer the previous panic, and I still don’t answer this question. ] Bu Nai opened the book and read it carefully, "Chen Gong didn't open it first, and waited for Lu Bu to open it by hand. It was very detailed." 】The book briefly said:

I was ordered by the Ming Dynasty to map Lu Bu, so I dare not work hard all day long.But there are few generals in the army, so they dare not move lightly.Master Xing, the prime minister, is ready to be the forerunner.Be careful to organize your soldiers and wait for your orders. When Lu Bu saw it, he cursed and said: "How dare you do this to a thief!"So he beheaded the messenger.First make Chen Gong, Zang Ba, and Kou Sunguan of Taishan Mountain, Wu Dun, Yin Li, Chang Xi, [Yinxi.Get rid of the false emperor and link up with the real robbers. ] Take the counties of Yanzhou, Shandong in the east.Order Gao Shun and Zhang Liao to take Peicheng and attack Xuande.Order Song Xian and Wei Xuxi to take Ru and Ying.Cloth from the General Central Army, for the three-way rescue. [It was intended to attack Bu, but instead, Bu got angry first, and then made an unexpected appearance. 】

Let's say that Gao Shun and others lead troops out of Xuzhou and will arrive at Xiaopei.Someone reported to Xuande, and Xuande was in a hurry to discuss with everyone.Sun Qian said: "You can turn to Cao Cao immediately."Xuande said: "Who can go to Xudu in a hurry?"A person from the next step came out and said, "someone is willing to go."According to him, he is a fellow of Xuande, surnamed Jian, first name Yong, styled Xianhe, and now he is a guest of Xuande.Xuande immediately repaired the book and paid Jianyong, sending Xingye to Xudu to ask for help. 【This time, don't meet Chen Gong again. ] While rectifying the defense equipment.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 to guard the central army.It turned out that Mi Zhu had a younger sister who married Xuande as his second wife.Xuande and his brothers are related to uncle Lang, so he was ordered to guard the army to protect his wife and children. [In my busy schedule, I narrate gossip, seeing that Xuande entrusted others with care, unlike Lu Bu's wife and children entrusted to Song Xian and Wei Xuyan. 】When Gao Shun's army arrived, Xuande asked on the enemy tower: "There is no gap between me and Feng Xian, why did you lead the troops here?"Shun said: You are connected with Cao Cao and want to harm my lord. Now it has been revealed, why don't you just tie him up!After speaking, the army attacked the city.Xuande stays behind closed doors.The next day, Zhang Liao led his troops to attack Ximen.Yun Chang said in the city: "The public appearance is not vulgar, so why lose yourself to the thief?" [A strong man cherishes a strong man. ○Ambush line for the rescue of Hou Baimenlou. ] Zhang Liao bowed his head and remained silent. [Good Zhang Liao. 】Yun Chang knows that this person has a spirit of loyalty, so he doesn't add evil words, and he doesn't fight. [Heroes love heroes. 】 Liao led his troops back to the east gate, and Zhang Fei went out to fight.Guan Gong has already been informed.When Guan Gong rushed to the east gate to have a look, he saw that Zhang Fei was leaving the city and Zhang Liao's army had retreated. [Good Zhang Liao. 】Fei wanted to catch up, Guan Gong hurriedly called into the city.Fei said: "He retreated in fear, why not chase him."Guan Gong said: "This man's martial arts are not inferior to you and me."Because I feel it with righteous words, and I have a heart of self-repentance, so I don't fight with us. [A good man knows a good man. 】Fei Naiwu only ordered the soldiers to stick to the city gate, let alone fight.

But it is said that Jianyong to Xu all met Cao Cao and spoke about the past.Cao then gathered all the counselors to discuss, saying: "If I want to attack Lu Bu, I don't worry about Yuan Shao holding back. I'm only afraid that Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu will talk about it." [Refer to the previous article. 】Xun You said: "The two are newly broken, and they dare not move lightly."Lü Bu is brave, if he joins forces with Yuan Shu and crosses Huaihe and Si, it will be very difficult. [The combination of appearance and embroidery is not enough to worry about, but the combination of cloth and technique is enough to worry about. 】Guo Jia said: "Now you can take advantage of his initial rebellion, and when the hearts of the people are not attached, attack him quickly."Do what you say.That is to say, Xiahou Dun, Xiahouyuan, Lu Qian, and Li Dian were ordered to lead 50,000 troops first, and the self-unified army marched one after another, accompanied by Jian Yong. [The narrative is very detailed. 】 Gao Shun has been reported to Gao Shun for a long time.Shunfei reported to Lu Bu.Bu Shiling Hou Cheng, Hao Meng, and Cao Xing led more than 200 horsemen to meet Gao Shun, sent them 30 miles away from Peicheng to meet Cao's army, and then led the army to meet them.When Xuande saw Gao Shun retreat in Xiaopei City, he knew it was Cao's soldiers who had arrived, but left Sun Qian to guard the city, and Mi Zhu and Mi Fang to guard the house. [It is a loss to go out of the empty city. 】 But Xiahoudun led the army forward and met Gao Shun's army, so he drew his gun and rode out to fight.Gao Shun met the enemy.The two horses met, and the battle lasted for forty or fifty rounds. Gao Shun couldn't resist the enemy and was defeated.Dun rode his horse to catch up and walked around the formation.Don't give up, and chase him around the formation.When Cao Xing saw it in the battle, he secretly picked up his bow and set up an arrow, looked at him kindly, and shot it, which hit Xiahou Dun's left eye.Dun yelled, and hurriedly pulled out the arrow with his hands, not wanting to pull out his eyes. [It hurts too. 】 Nai shouted loudly: "Father's essence and mother's blood, don't discard it!"Then put it in the mouth and eat it. 【At this moment, Dun has one eye on the face, one eye on the belly; one eye on the outside, one eye on the inside.Seeing oneself is like seeing one's lungs and liver. ○Ruoyun's father's sperm and mother's blood, although he eats himself, he still eats his father and mother. 】 Still raising the gun and riding the horse, he went straight to Cao Xing.Xing was too late to be on guard, he was shot through the door long ago, [Cao Xing took another look on his face. 】 Died under the horse.The sergeants on both sides were all shocked when they saw it.After Xiahou Dun killed Cao Xing, he rode his horse back.Gao Shun came from behind, and the army gathered together, Cao Bing was defeated.Xia Houyuan rescued his brother and left. Lu Qian and Li Dian retreated the defeated army to the Xiazhai in Jibei.Gao Shun was victorious and led his troops to fight back against Xuande.It just so happened that Lu Bu's army also arrived, and Bu, Zhang Liao, and Gao Shun divided their forces into three groups to attack Xuande, Guan, and Zhang Sanzhai.exactly: Although the eye-eating fierce general can fight, it is difficult for the spearhead to hold the arrow for a long time. I don't know how Xuande won or lost, let's listen to the breakdown below.
