Chapter 639
Chapter 637: Great Battle in the Central Plains
Xu Shiji's outstanding performance in this battle made Li Mi fully aware of his commanding ability.

After weighing the pros and cons, Li Mi decided to entrust the command to Xu Shiji, ordering him to be solely responsible for the fight against the Han army, while he himself oversaw.

For Li Mi's decision, Li Zicheng finally agreed. After all, this is only the command power, not the real handing over of military power.

Xu Shiji never imagined that he would be able to command an army of tens of thousands so quickly, and he was extremely excited.

Seeing that Li Mi won the title, Xu Shiji suppressed the joy in his heart and said solemnly, "Thank you for the trust of the Governor, and I will definitely live up to the trust of the Governor."

Seeing this, Li Mi frowned slightly, because Xu Shiji still didn't call him the master under his trusting win, which shows that between him and Daming, Xu Shiji was more loyal to Daming.

"If you want to completely conquer this person's heart, it seems that a lot of effort will be needed."

Li Mi thought to himself, then smiled and said to Luo Shixin, who was on the side: "Luo Shixin, you have made great achievements in this battle. The governor named you General Fenwei, do you think?"

A trace of doubt flashed in Luo Shixin's eyes, Han Xiao scratched his head, and asked, "General Fenwei? Hey, what kind of official is this?"

Seeing this, Xu Shiji immediately shouted, "Shixin, don't be rude in front of the Governor."

"Oh, I see, brother."

Luo Shixin was only a little naive, but he was not stupid at all. Seeing Xu Shiji's attitude, he quickly said, "The common people don't know the etiquette, please don't blame Luo Shixin for being rude."

Seeing what Luo Shixin said about Xu Shiji, Li Mi knew that the key to conquering Luo Shixin was Xu Shiji.

Whether it was Xu Shiji, a handsome talent, or Luo Shixin, a peerless general, Li Mi didn't want to let go of either, and he had already decided to completely subdue both of them, so proper decentralization was still necessary.

Li Mi's delegating powers freed Xu Shiji from the constraints, and commanded the army more like a duck to water, so the battle situation in Yuzhou was completely reduced to a contest between him and Cao Cao.

--------

Inside the tent of Yuan Cao's allied army, the atmosphere seemed a bit dull.

It was supposed to be an ambush, but it was disturbed by Xu Shiji and Luo Shixin, and caused heavy casualties to Yuan and Cao's allied forces, so how could they be happy?

Only Cao Cao and Yuan Shu were the only feudal lords in the Han army along the Yuzhou route, and their strength was not as strong as the others.

Of course, compared with the casualties of Yuan Shu's army, the losses of Cao Cao's army were much smaller, but after thinking about the gains from this battle, Cao Cao felt that he had gained instead.

Wang Junke, You Junda, Xie Yingdeng, Shi Danai and Cheng Yaojin were Cao Cao's biggest gains in this battle.

Among the five captured generals, the weakest were first-class masters, and the strongest Wang Jun was even closer to the level of a god-general. It took great effort to capture the five Cao Jun alive.

In the previous battle, after Ren Zhong was shot to death by Xiahou Yuan, Wang Junke's anger was immediately aroused, and he swung his sword to kill him.

Under Wang Junke's airtight attack, Xiahou Yuan fell into a disadvantage, which also aroused Cao Cao's love for talent, and immediately ordered Xiahou Dun to go to support and ordered Wang Junke to be captured alive.

After the two Xiahous joined forces, it was not difficult to defeat Wang Jun, but it was not easy to capture them alive. After a battle, the two Xiahous triggered a combination of skills, and it was difficult to capture Wang Junke.

After Wang Junke was captured, Cheng Yaojin and other generals sacrificed their lives to come to rescue. Cao Cao saw that they were not weak either, so he also gave the order to capture them alive.

In the end, under the siege of the Xiahou brothers, the Yang brothers, and a group of Cao generals, the four generals of Cheng Yaojin were also captured alive.

After questioning the other prisoners of war, Cao Cao learned that Wang Junke and other generals did not have a high status in Li Mi's army, so he felt that it should not be difficult to surrender, but in fact he slapped Cao Cao.

Because Xiahou Yuan shot Ren Zhong to death, the five of them would rather die than surrender, which also made Cao Cao both distressed and helpless.

"Ah? Ah?"

Hearing Yuan Shu calling him, Cao Cao suddenly returned to his senses, and said with a chuckle, "Gong, what's wrong?"

The dissatisfaction on Yuan Shu's face disappeared for a moment, and then he said indifferently: "In this battle, both our army and the Ming army will suffer. It is very difficult to defeat Li Mi with the current strength."

Cao Cao frowned and pondered: "What do you mean by highway?"

Yuan Shu sneered in his heart, but said warmly, "Let Qin Hao send troops to help."

Of course, Cao Cao knew that Yuan Shu was plotting against his cheap nephew again. Although he was extremely disgusted in his heart, he did not show the slightest expression on his face. the reason?"

The big man can't command the major princes at all, but he can dispatch the five-way army to attack the Ming Dynasty. This is of course because of the huge benefits after the extinction of the Ming Dynasty.

This time, except for Liu Yu, Huangfu Song, Lu Zhi and others, most of the other princes sent troops to occupy the land of Daming, so almost all the princes who sent troops were bordering Daming.

The reason why princes like Dong Zhuo who have no interest in Daming also participate is to cut off potential threats.

After hearing this, Yuan Shu showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth, and said, "There is a difference in what you say. Qin Hao is the consort of the great Han, and he is also sending troops to destroy the traitors for the Han. How can there be no reason?"

Qin Hao's Nanyang's actions really made Yuan Shu, a neighbor, feel both jealous and envious, so of course he would not let Qin Hao continue to develop.

This is a naked conspiracy. No matter whether Qin Hao sends troops or not, Yuan Shu will ultimately benefit, and the person who planned for Yuan Shu this time is Zhao Pu.

Of course, this could not be concealed from Qin Hao, as well as the group of advisors behind him, and after Liu Ji discussed with the advisors, he soon thought of a way to crack it.

Qin Hao also wanted to subdue Can Ming, and it was impossible to send troops to attack Ming, so he directly rejected Yuan Shu's request, and the reason was that he could not send troops without the permission of the court.

Immediately, Yuan Shu used the power of the Yuan family in the Chang'an court to incite Liu Hong to issue a decree to directly order Qin Hao to send troops.

With the words of a group of 'loyal ministers', Liu Hong finally ordered Qin Hao to send troops.

Yuzhou is thousands of miles away from Chang'an, and it's been three months since Qin Hao received the imperial edict.

During these three months, the decisive battle between Liu Dai and Hong Xiuquan from Jiaozhou was the first to start.

Later, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was guarding Shouchun, also fought a battle with Liu Yao, which shocked the world.
