They didn’t lose to Yan Liang in tactics, but Yan Liang also played tricks with them. Generally speaking, in Ju Shou, Yan Liang suggested that the enemy retreat and I advance, and I retreated and beat the Xiahou Dun and Xia Houyuan brothers, which was crazy.

Chapter three hundred and fifty-nine Lu Bu danger
In fact, border conflicts are also common. However, this unusual border conflict has made the two countries of Zhao and Wei tense to the extreme, and war is imminent.
It is a great shame for Wei and Cao Cao that Yuan Shao, who is in high spirits, should ask Wei to apologize.
Yuan Shao first sent a general, Yan Liang, to the border of Wei with his counselor, Ju Shou, and harassed Cao Cao constantly. Naturally, he also made a series of counterattacks, but these counterattacks did not have much effect.
Yan Liang has a general style, but the more dazzling suspect in this war is the counselor Ju Shou Ju Shou, who has learned that he is ashamed of being among the first-class counselors.
In his command, Yan Liang never fought hard in Xiahou Dun and Xia Houyuan. Anyway, he saw the two of them bring an army to Yan Liang and directly commanded his cavalry to fly away.
Xiahou Dun, Xia Houyuan and Yan Liang will never come back after they leave, but who knows that as soon as they leave Yan Liang, they will continue to harass all kinds of facilities in various towns and cities in Wei, which makes Xia Houyuan and Xiahou Dun brothers have a headache.
It is almost impossible to expel Yan Liang from the country by expulsion tactics, because he led Yan Liang’s army to hide in secret in Ju Shou. Secondly, Yan Liang is not worried about the problem of water shortage and food shortage from afar because he has a Zhao backing behind him.
The prince of Zhao Yuan Shao likes noodles. Since Cao Cao wants to play with him, it is natural to play with Cao Cao. In the end, when Yan Liang troops can get it at the front, he will give Yan Liang an order. You must never lose them. Zhao Guo said that Yan Liang troops are well-armed, and sometimes accompany Wei slowly.
Yuan Shao’s practice of recognizing that he is right in everything without showing mercy made Cao Cao angry because Yuan Shao’s move was not the solution at all.
Since Yuan Shao bullied Cao Cao so much and realized that he was a vegetarian, he immediately prepared to fight him. Wei was by no means an idle person. The idea of Cao Cao just came out, but it was stopped by many of his advisers.
Among them, when Xun Yu came out of the war, he earnestly advised Cao Cao, "Wang Wei must not be impulsive, so the so-called small sufferings make great plans. Many things are just a moment’s anger. When he has had enough fun, he will naturally go back. But if we rush to fight Zhao now, it will add fuel to the fire. First of all, Zhao’s territory is the widest among the vassal States. Secondly, their side is also like a tiger, and their advisers are like clouds. Therefore, if we want to fight a national war, we must look at comprehensive strength!"
Although Xun Yu’s words are euphemistic, if you analyze them carefully, you can find that the words of finding jade are actually very sharp
There is a problem that Xun Yu is talking about in this sentence, that is, Wei’s food is not as good as Zhao’s, and Wei’s advisers are not necessarily as fierce as Zhao’s. Everything in Wei is inferior to Zhao’s.
If Cao Cao can fight against Zhao now, it will definitely be Cao Cao’s defeat and death.
If the general counselor makes such a suggestion as the general monarch, the monarch will naturally fly into a rage, because the battle has not yet been fought, and when others are ambitious, they will destroy their prestige. It is no exaggeration for such a person to say that he is spreading lies to mislead people and disturb the morale of the army.
However, since Xun Yu dared to say it, Xun Yu was sure that Cao Cao must be a person who listened. When Cao Cao listened to this speech, the consequences were really calm. He took a deep breath and calmly thought about what Xun Yu said. This is indeed the shortcoming of Wei and the shortcoming of Cao Cao.
At night, Cao Cao couldn’t help looking up at the stars, and his heart was filled with emotion. He grew up with Yuan Shao and knew best what kind of person Yuan Shao was.
Noble families have always been Yuan Shao’s pride, and Cao Cao is just a eunuch queen.
Since childhood, Cao Cao Yuan Shao’s quarrelling seems to have never won. Thought of this, Cao Cao’s mind is more anxious than that of Dian Wei’s death in the previous period, which makes him even more upset. He walked alone in the court, but at this moment.
Cao Cao suddenly found a figure hanging around the door of his palace. Cao Cao couldn’t help squinting when he saw this.
Although the etiquette should be very strict in the feudal period like the court at the moment, in troubled times, Cao Cao is an eclectic person, regardless of Germany, Cao Cao is not the kind of person who wants to be respectable, so he is very lenient with other departments’ policies, and he can freely enter and leave the court when he talks about his confidants, because he knows that every time his confidants come in, they have something important to discuss.
Cao Cao couldn’t help narrowing his eyes and took two steps forward. He wanted to see the newcomers clearly. In the dark, a young man walked out with a face of mirth, and he looked a little erratic in front of the column. He directly raised one hand and had two flagons.
"Your master is in a bad mood. If you don’t drown your sorrows by drinking, maybe everything can be solved after this altar of wine goes!"
Cao Cao looked at the young man’s face and gave me a wry smile, but he finally said nothing and strode to take the wine from the young man’s hand. Then Cao Cao didn’t mind sitting next to the young man in the pavilion and watching Tian Yue talk about the great events while drinking. Finally, he gave a loud laugh. Cao Cao’s smile seemed to laugh away all the gloom and all the gloom.
Cao Xing sat in a secret room, and the intelligence in his hand kept reporting to the court. Cao Xing listened with his head drooping and his brow furrowed.
The border conflict between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao depends on the attitude of the monarchs on both sides to solve it.
Anyway, Yuan Shao will never change his mind. He thinks that their side must give a statement to Wei. Cao Cao is definitely not a person holding soft persimmons. Yuan Shao is so arrogant and overbearing, so fight if you want.
As a result, Cao Xing didn’t think that the storm was finally over. The way to end it was very simple. Cao Cao swallowed his anger and didn’t speak. Yuan Shao also felt boring after a while. Anyway, he earned enough money in his face, so he waved his hand and directly let Yan Liang take the army to move troops back to the DPRK
Cao Cao’s silence is not cowardice, but forbearance. Thought of this, Cao Cao’s eyes flashed a glimmer of light.
Sometimes if you can’t win, your opponent chooses silence, which is called forbearance. If you win, your opponent doesn’t fight, which is called cowardice. Now Cao Cao has chosen forbearance, and Cao Xing feels that something will definitely break out in this lean body.
If it wasn’t long before there was a new movement in Cao Cao’s side, first of all, Cao Cao took the initiative to show his kindness to Yuan Shao. As a result, Yuan Shao was glad to see Cao Cao bow his head like himself, and Wei and Zhao tended to ease.
But when Cao Cao came, he was ready to do something. What he did was attack Xuzhou.
In fact, Cao Cao’s attitude towards Yuan Shao is similar to that in history. Cao Cao and Yuan Shaolai were the two overlords in the north. At the end of the day, the Guandu War, which happened, laid the foundation for Cao Cao’s dominance in the north.
So it is now. Since the border storm broke out, Cao Cao could not have resigned himself to it. He realized that he and Yuan Shao would have a battle sooner or later, but he still appeared to be weak in the face of Yuan Shao, saying that he must now expand his territory and consolidate his strength.
Active diplomacy, Yuan Shao, that is to paralyze Yuan Shao’s nerves and let Yuan Shao relax and attack Xuzhou. That is Cao Cao’s real intention.
Xuzhou is now ruled by Lu Bu. Since Liu Bei was driven away, he is the only one in Xuzhou who has the final say.
Now Lu Bu is no longer as strong as he used to be. He also studies political knowledge. Most of them are left to Chen Gong to take care of, saying that Xuzhou should be passable now, but that’s all.
Cao Cao sent an army to work, and Lu Bu was furious after hearing about it. It was not the first time he had dealt with Cao Cao. Lu Bu didn’t provoke Cao Cao, and Cao Cao dared to take the initiative to provoke him. This was absolutely unbearable for Lu Bu, so Lu Bu didn’t listen to Chen Gong to discourage him from leading the troops directly.
Before Cao Cao, he did a massacre in Xuzhou. Many people in Xuzhou hated Cao Cao, so they all responded positively to Lu Bu’s resistance. With this star and his military talents, Lu Bu really defeated Cao Cao.
However, after the failure, Cao Cao immediately realized that he had killed hundreds of thousands of people in Xuzhou. He was not expected to be badly needed in the minds of Xuzhou people. Instead of trying to defeat Lu Bu, he should appease the people. He said that every time Cao Cao called ideal city, he immediately ordered soldiers not to harass the people. He also personally entered Xuzhou to let Xuzhou people have a mouth to eat, and then he was widely benevolent. As a result, Xuzhou people’s hostility towards Cao Cao seemed to decrease a lot.
A month later, Cao Cao seemed to have some difficulties, because every time he conquered a county town, he would share some of his commissary with the people. When Cao Cao had just beaten Xiao Pei a month later, he seemed to have some shortage of commissary.
As a result, Cao Cao didn’t say much about personally sitting in Xiaopei, while letting Yanzhou and Yuzhou deliver food over there, personally certifying Xiaopei to deal with it.
This time, the situation became a little subtle. Cao Cao sent his troops angrily and attacked. As a result, Cao Cao couldn’t move when he hit Xiaopei, and he changed from an attacking party to a guarding city party.
Lyu3 bu4 has repeatedly sent his general Zhang Liao Seibel two troops to attack Xiaopei, and the result was all in vain, which dragged on for another month.
At the moment, Lu Bu’s mood is a little short-tempered. Every day, Chen Bing is out and Cao Cao is eyeing up. It’s not comfortable. It’s better to stay in the batch of mansion.
