Hee Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 297 Jiangdong rains, Guandu confrontation (first update)
Heroes are prepared in troubled times, and the stars are shining brightly. However, some are like stars, founding a country and establishing a business, and lasting forever, while some are as short-lived as meteors.

Just two weeks after the official outbreak of the North-South War, in the distant land of Jiangdong, within the mansion of Marquis Wu, there was already a river of sorrow.

In an inner hall, Sun Ce, the ruler of Jiangdong who used to be unscrupulous and domineering, was lying on the bed with a pale face, his left eye was stretched with gauze, and his younger brother Sun Quan was kneeling beside him in pain.

"The sky is not with me, Sun Ce, it is not with me, Sun Ce!" After crying for a while, Sun Ce immediately touched the wound, and the gauze was immediately soaked with blood.

Just like what Guo Jia and Li Ru said, Sun Ce, who was too confident in his martial arts, went out without a guard, and was eventually wounded by assassins arranged by Xu Gong's disciples who died by death, and Jiangdong's gentry who hated Sun Ce, and the arrow hit him left eye.

"Big brother" Sun Quan cried even more when he heard this.

"If you fail to grasp such a world-class opportunity, I'm afraid there will be no day to go north to the Central Plains in the future," Sun Ce clenched his fists.

"My lord!" A famous general kowtowed in grief, Sun Ce is only 26 years old!

"Brother Quan, Brother Quan" Sun Ce suddenly felt that his vision was completely dark, and hurriedly shouted.

"Brother, I'm here, I'm here," Sun Quan said hastily.

Sun Ce grabbed Sun Quan's hand and panted, "Leading the Jiangdong soldiers to a decisive battle between the two battles, to run rampant and contend for the balance of the world, you are far inferior to a brother. To protect Jiangdong, I am not as good as you as a brother. Now that my brother's destiny is over, Jiangdong can only be handed over to you. Wen Bujue asked Zhang Gong, and Wu Buding asked Gong Jin."

"Big Brother" Sun Quan cried bitterly.

"I'm not reconciled, I'm really not reconciled!" After giving the order, Sun Ce suddenly yelled a few times, a mouthful of blood spewed out immediately, and then his right hand fell heavily.

"Big brother, big brother" Sun Quan shouted anxiously.

The "lord" civil servants and military generals cried loudly one by one.

"Bohu" At this moment, a voice of extreme grief rang out, and a man with a face like a crown jade, with superb temperament, wearing armor, majestic and heroic, came in, blocking the sight That had already closed his eyes, and the tears in his eyes couldn't be controlled.

"Heaven will not help me, Jiangdong!"

Extremely sad, after screaming heart-piercingly, the man clutched his chest and fell down directly.

"Great Governor, Great Governor" the person next to him said anxiously.

Since then, Sun Ce, the little overlord of Jiangdong, has passed away at the age of only 26. His death also means that no one in the world dares to participate in the battle of Guandu.

. . . . . . . .

Although Sun Ce is dead, the situation in the world will never stop.

Xudu is where Cao Cao's base camp is located. The emperor and the imperial court are here. Its importance is self-evident and must not be lost. Above Xudu, Cao Cao set up three layers of barriers, Baima, Yangwu, and Guandu, The first two places are only used for supervision and delay, while Guandu is the most important layer and the place where the decisive battle will take place.

Because Guandu is not only the closest to Xudu, it is convenient for food and grass transportation, but more importantly, its terrain. Cao Cao knew that the gap between his troops and Yuan Shao was too large, and he would definitely lose in a frontal battle. Geographical advantages, people and the combination of the three, and Guandu is just located at the intersection of the three rivers of Langtang Canal, Guandu Water and Jishui. There are Dahe and Bianshui in the north, Putian Lake in the west, Yingou Water in the east, and the southeast. In Fuze, the entire terrain is sandy and muddy, which is completely inconvenient for cavalry and large corps to maneuver. Here Cao Cao can occupy the greatest geographical advantage.

At this time, Yan Liang was beheaded, Wen Chou was injured, and one day two months after Sun Cezhi's death, I saw the shouts of killing once again shook the sky above Guandu. In the middle of the vast military camps piled up with sand and soil less than a kilometer apart, thousands of soldiers are fighting fiercely. They wear different armors and helmets, representing Yuan Jun and Cao Jun. The number of Yuan Jun is obviously larger than Cao Jun, and there are many Constantly rushed out of the army.

A brave general was criss-crossing the battlefield, wantonly killing. Among them, Guan Yu was holding a big knife and waving it rapidly, like a green dragon, majestic and unstoppable. The other Cao generals were also very fierce. It was too huge. After about half an hour of the battle, it gradually gained the upper hand. At this time, the sound of the golden drum sounded, and Cao Jun immediately retreated into the camp like a tide.

Just as Yuan Jun pursued him, all arrows were fired from Cao Jun's earthen wall. After several attacks to no avail, Yuan Jun could only retreat temporarily.

Not long after, Yuan Shao hammered the desk angrily in the tent of Yuan Jun's barracks, and said angrily: "Cao Aman, you are such a coward, you have retracted again, and it is estimated that you will not come out in a short time. No trick"

Hearing this, Xun Kan, Xu You, Guo Tu, Feng Ji and others all frowned. Cao Cao defended his position and attacked, but none of them refused to fight. Cao Jun actually made a wooden cart with a rock-throwing device, and the rocks destroyed all the towers. They dug tunnels to prepare to attack, but they also dug long trenches in the camp to resist. This time they sent soldiers to scold Cao Cao's ancestors for three generations. , but it only forced out less than ten thousand people. Although they won, it didn't affect the overall situation at all.

"My lord, if Cao Cao wants to delay, then he will delay. It depends on whether it has more food and grass, or I have more food and grass in the north," Xun Kan said with a cold face.

Feng Ji smiled wryly, and said: "Lord Xun, I have food and grass in the north, but the number of troops is also large. To be honest, the food and grass have dropped sharply in the past month or so. It seems very difficult to defeat Cao Cao in the two months originally planned. , if the confrontation continues, we must immediately send a message to Yecheng and send food over immediately."

"Our army is indeed in difficulties, but Cao's army is more difficult than ours. With the food and grass in Yanzhou, Cao Cao will definitely not be able to support our army," Xun Kan affirmed.

"The key is that we don't know how much food and grass Cao Cao has. All the secret spies sent in the past have been wiped out. If Cao Cao has enough food and grass, our army will be in crisis if we run out of food. Tu suggests that we should storm the camp," Guo Tu said softly.

"The big camp is very difficult. The Cao camp is not only strong, but also has great generals and cavalry to attack at any time. Especially the tiger and leopard cavalry are extremely elite. They often hit our army's weakness when our army is about to attack, leading to failure." Xu You shook his head.

"Is there no other way, a certain army of hundreds of thousands was blocked here by Cao Cao?" Yuan Shao was very dissatisfied.

"My lord, we can only wait for the time to change. At least one thing is certain. Although our army can't attack, we still have a huge advantage in strength," Xun Kan comforted.

Yuan Shao sighed and said, "You Ruo, send an order back to Yecheng to ask Yuan Hao and the others to prepare some food and grass."

"promise!"

Yuan Shao was helpless, and Cao Cao was suffering from a headache. Inside the tent, Cao Cao looked at the calm Guo Jia with a wry smile and said, "Feng Xiao, the army's food and grass are only enough for fifteen days. What happened, if this confrontation continues, our army will collapse without a fight.”

"What's more, you also told someone about Yuan Xi. You said that even if Cao won, how about changing it later?"

"Sikong, our army must not move at this time. Once we give up Guandu, Yuan Jun will definitely press up, and his military superiority will explode completely. The consequences will be disastrous. Let Wen Ruo think of a way. Jia believes that the lord will win the emperor. , the time of battle; guarding the official crossing, according to the geographical advantage; emphasizing military discipline, winning harmony; these three aspects are complete, there will definitely be a turning point, the lord must be determined to stick to it, so as to infect the soldiers of the three armies." Guo Jia persuaded patiently , it knew that Cao Cao wanted to retire.

Cao Cao fixed his eyes, nodded lightly, and said, "Feng Xiao is at ease, Cao will not give up easily."

"My lord, in addition, Jia suggested to have a meal of meat this afternoon." Guo Jia smiled.

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and then praised: "Bong Xiao, a ghost, anyway, there is no difference, maybe this will have a miraculous effect, immediately pass the order, eat meat today, let the smell of meat waft for ten miles."

"No!" Guo Jia nodded.
