Guandu.
The gate to the north of Xuchang was originally a ferry, named after the Guandu River.
Guandukou is surrounded by water on three sides.
To the north was Guandu River, to the east was Zhongmou Marsh, and to the west was Guantian Marsh. The middle was only a few miles wide and twenty miles long, which could be used for Yuan's frontal attack.
It was like a pocket, or more accurately, a bell mouth. Because the back was empty, it could be said to be able to attack and retreat, and it was easy to defend but difficult to attack!
Cao Cao chose to set up camp here, building fortifications and walls to defend against Yuan Shao's attack.
Yuan Shao had hundreds of thousands of troops and many generals and advisors under him. This was not a joke.
Therefore, this was destined to be a battle of life and death. They could not be careless.
At this moment, Yuan Shao had hundreds of thousands of troops stationed at Guandu.
On Cao Cao's side, without Guo Jia, Xun Yu, and Guan Yu by his side, Cao Cao could not resolve the White Horse's siege.
They could only station their troops at Guandu and deal with Yuan Shao with a defensive stance.
Night gradually fell. Cao Cao's camp.
Cao Cao frowned.
"At this moment, Yuan Shao is building a tower and piling up earth like a mountain. He must be trying to shoot arrows at our camp.”
Cheng Yu stood up." My lord, Yuan Shao's plan is to attack the heart. We must break it quickly!"”
"What plan does Zhongde have?"
Cheng Yu thought for a moment and said,"We can use large catapults to break through it!"”
Hearing this, Cao Cao frowned slightly." Yuan Shao is currently building it. It won't be long before it's completed. It's already urgent. Where are we going to find a siege weapon?"”
At this moment, Liu Ye, who had some clues, stood up."Lord, please give me some time. I will definitely be able to create a weapon that can break through Yuan Shao's tower!”
"Yes!"
Cao Cao nodded slightly. He believed in Liu Ye's ability, but time was tight and the task was heavy. Cao Cao was also somewhat desperate…
At this moment.
"Report!"
A guard entered to report.
"Reporting to my lord, an army is coming from the south!”
Hearing this, Cao Cao frowned slightly. The Yuan army was in the north, so who would come from the south?
"How many people? Who is leading the army?"
The guard replied,"The night is too dark. I can't see clearly. There are probably tens of thousands of people!"”
"Got it. Follow me to take a look!”
After saying that, Cao Cao led his guards out of the main tent.
In front of the camp.
The generals behind Cao Cao were ready for battle, while Cao Cao himself looked at the large army that was gradually approaching from the darkness, thinking about something.
Rumble!
The large group of people was getting closer and closer. Soon, they could see the fluttering flag in front of the army with the word Cao printed on it.
Cao Jun!
Cao Cao frowned even more.
This unfilial son who had stolen his foundation had actually come.
Cao Pi was gritting his teeth. It was Cao Jun who made him useless in front of Cao Cao. He wanted nothing more than to tear Cao Jun into pieces…
Although Sima Yi looked calm on the surface, his heart was already in turmoil…
Very quickly.
Cao Jun rode on a tall horse and arrived five hundred meters away from Cao Cao's camp. Beside him were Hu Che 'er and Lei Xu, as well as Jia Xu, Guo Jia, and Xun Yu. Behind him was a black mass of 70,000 soldiers.
"Da! Da! Da!"
Cao Jun rode on his Red Hare Horse and held the Overlord Spear in his hand as he slowly walked forward.
Looking at Cao Cao who was frowning, the corners of his mouth curled up.
"Cao Cao, long time no see!"
Hearing this, Cao Cao shouted,"Unfilial son, why did you bring your army here?" Do you want to attack me from the front and back with Yuan Shao?”
"Haha!"
"You?" Cao Jun chuckled. Do I need to ally with Yuan Shao?"
Humph!
Cao Cao snorted coldly,"Then you stabbed me in the back and stole my foundation. What else can't you do?"”
"Father, don't waste your breath on him. Just kill him!" Cao Pi chimed in.”
"Shut up!"
Cao Cao and Cao Jun shouted in unison.
Cao Pi could only lower his head. He knew that he was useless in Cao Cao's heart.
……
Cao Jun revealed a disdainful expression.
"Cao Cao, you've been in Guandu for so long, but you're useless!”
"What do you mean?" Cao Cao's eyes were filled with anger. Did you come all the way here to mock me?"
Cao Jun was even more merciless." You can't even solve Yan Liang's white horse siege. What use do you have?"”
Although Cao Cao was furious, he was speechless. He had been in Guandu for so long, but he had not made any progress. He had been in a passive state…
Cao Jun continued," I'll tell you the truth. I'm not here to beat you up, nor am I here to help you. I'm here to beat up Yuan Shao!"”
Hearing this, Cao Cao took a deep breath and said,""Very good. Cao Jun, then let's mind our own business and join forces to deal with Yuan Shao! Then, we'll solve the problem between us! What do you think?"
"Alright, then come over and be my chief strategist!" Cao Jun smiled.”
"Haha!"
Cao Cao sneered and shook his finger." Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"Then there's nothing else to say."
Cao Jun was about to turn around when he was stopped by Cao Cao.
"Wait, return my two strategists to me first!”
Cao Jun waved his hand." Guo Jia, Xun Yu, since you've seen Cao Cao, you can go back."”
Guo Jia and Xun Yu's expressions froze slightly. So he already knew! However, he actually didn't guard against the two of them at all. This kind of broad-mindedness was really rare!
"This one thanks Young Master Cao Jun!"
The two of them cupped their hands towards Cao Jun and headed towards Cao Cao's camp.
"Filial piety!"
Cao Jun suddenly thought of something and called out to Guo Jia,"Remember what I told you, quit drinking and sex. Otherwise, when you return to Cao Cao's place, Cao Cao will ask you about everything.”
Cao Cao's expression froze, while Guo Jia was moved."
"Many thanks for Young Master Cao Jun's reminder, I will remember it!”
……
Following that, Cao Jun set up camp five miles away from Cao Cao, also building defensive structures.
Cao Cao's camp.
"This is the Thunderbolt Car?"
Liu Ye looked at the blueprint that Guo Jia brought back and revealed a surprised expression.
This idea actually coincided with his, and it was even more perfect.
A few gears were added, and a heavy iron block hung in front of the lever. The iron block was pulled up by the gears.
As long as the iron block fell, the rocks behind it would be instantly shot out. The power and range were at least twice as great as the original human-powered catapults!
Liu Ye clicked his tongue in wonder.”
Cao Cao's lips curled up…
……
Yuan Ying.
"Report!"
The scout in front reported,"My lord, there are two Cao Cao camps in front of us, each five miles apart!"”
"Two Cao Cao camps?"
Yuan Shao was stunned.”
Xu You was also confused." Cao Cao's army is only 100,000. There's no reason for them to separate the two camps. Is this a strategic deployment?"”
"Investigate again and report again!"
"Yes!"
Half a day later, the scout reported again,"If the news is correct, the other camp should be Cao Jun's army!”
"Cao Jun?"
Yuan Shao narrowed his eyes and sneered. Cao Jun's son came! This way, I can take down this annoying Cao thief father and son and hang them on the city wall. I'll let the world know that they're the descendants of the disgraced eunuchs!!”
Liu Bei, who was standing at the side, was even more delighted. The chance to avenge Guan Yu had arrived…
