Chapter 157
Uncle Li once said that when the hearts of the people are scattered, it is difficult to lead the team!If you have heard this sentence, Yuan Shao will definitely take it seriously. At this time, the hearts of the Hebei army are indeed scattered.

It took hundreds of thousands of manpower to pile up the towering earth mountain, and it was captured by Cao Jun in less than 10 minutes. Yuan Jun, who was guarding the tunnel, fled from the mountain in panic, throwing away his helmet and armor. The archers also fled down the mountain in a panic at the moment. There were not many people fighting in the entire front. It was really a turn of events. This time it was Cao Jun's turn to rush in, shouting and screaming.

Behind the dirt hill, the simple fence built by Yuan Jun didn't last long, it was easily torn, and finally entered the climax of the whole war, fighting for spoils!Cao Jun's team, which was originally neat, also began to scatter, full of excited howls, and fellow villagers scattered into various Yuan Jun's tents and sheds, rummaging through boxes and chests to find any money that could fill their pockets.

In some tents, there were even women's terrified screams. It was self-evident what happened.

Even the U.S. military in later generations cannot guarantee a [-]% civilized military style, and incidents such as prisoner abuse and rape happen from time to time. The military of this era, even Cao Jun, is a feudal army after all, and there is really no way to ask too much of them!
It's just that he followed the front and entered Yuan Shao's barracks. Watching this scene, Wang Hou's back was shuddering. How did Cao Cao cut Wen Chou in history!During the retreat, they threw money and silk all over the ground. Looking at the cloth and copper coins all over the floor, the pursuing Wen Chou troops couldn't hold back their greed for money, and scattered to pick up the scattered money on the ground. Cao Cao killed him immediately, and even he himself was killed. He died in the chaos and his head was chopped off to receive a reward.

Even if Yuan Shao is defeated and suffered a great loss, after all, there are still more than 4 soldiers and 10,000+ civilians in the back camp, which is twice that of Cao Jun, and it seems too simple to capture Yuan Shao's camp. In the front battalion of a regiment, Wang Hou roared anxiously.

"No looting is allowed! The generals of all ministries restrain the troops! Those who are scattered will be killed!"

However, the shortcomings of his airborne commander were also revealed. Surrounded by his own soldiers, he yelled as he walked, but there were almost no real birds of his. One part, moved forward to Yuan Shao's army, and Wang Hou, who was getting more and more worried, finally figured out what was going on!He shouted at Zang Hong anxiously.

"Lao Zang, immediately send flying cavalry to pass through this general's order! Order Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Yu Jin, and Li Dian to restrain the troops and not to disperse! To prevent Yuan Jun from counterattacking!"

"The last will obey!"

Wang Hou's authority comes from Cao Cao, and it is imposed on the senior generals of various ministries. If he wants to restrain the army, he can only pass through generals at all levels. Ordinary soldiers who take you as the commander of the rear battalion as a dish!

After ordering the cavalry to disperse, Wang Hou looked anxiously at the messy army around him again, his heart was like a volcano erupting, and he gritted his teeth angrily.

If this is a soldier under Lao Tzu's command, it won't beat you to death!
For the first time, Wang Hou had the idea of ​​building a powerful army for his subordinates, but it didn't come from any ambition, to fight for hegemony!I was really annoyed by the poor military discipline.

Sure enough, the responsibility has to be implemented by everyone. Under Wang Hou's angry reminder, Cao Ren and Cao Hong also woke up from the excitement of the big victory and hurriedly restrained the troops. The scattered troops passed through the central army, and the Cao army that completely took down the entire Hebei camp was no more than 3000 and less than [-].

The only good thing is that Yuan Shao's army is so dispirited that he really can't launch a counterattack!In the process of gradually occupying, Wang Hou buried him as the most important pawn in Yuan Jun!Deng Hui was found back.

Although the ability of his subordinates is insufficient and he is also a little stupid, Yuan Shao still has the courage of an overlord. He understands the truth of a strong man breaking his wrist. With the remaining more than 10,000 cavalry and more than 1 infantry, they broke out of the camp and fled northward.

The current situation is that Dalong has been lost anyway, he can run as many as he can, and don't get caught by the opponent!
At about four or five o'clock in the morning, Yuan Jun had already pulled out his camp to the north, and by the time the various ministries gathered up the scattered generals who had looted the loot in Yuan Jun's barracks, more than two hours had passed.

Yuan Shao's complete set of ceremonial guards was seized, and the afternoon meeting was directly held in Yuan Shao's army, but in the big cowhide-roofed tent, sitting cross-legged in front of the red lacquer cases, Cao Ren, Cao Hong and other generals were clearly He couldn't be happy, and even his face was a little dignified. As for the civil servants on the other side, Xun Yu, the head of the civil officials, also had a rigid old face, kneeling in front of the desk sullenly, without saying a word.

It is self-evident what Yuan Shao means to the entire Central Plains military group!It can be said that as long as Yuan Shao is alive, Cao Cao can't sleep well. Even if Yuan Shao is defeated this time, he still has the four prefectures of Hebei, but he has repeatedly recruited hundreds of thousands of troops. hit!
But such an opportunity to annihilate Yuan Shao was skipped under their noses because of the looting by the troops. Civil servants and generals, the remorse can be imagined.

Despite the etiquette of this era, Wang Hou can sit on Yuan Shao's seat and issue orders, but on the one hand, he wants to express his respect for his father-in-law, and on the other hand, it is really uncomfortable to kneel and sit, pinching his chin and finally growing out With a mustache, Wang Hou simply stood in front of the case and pondered.

After listening to the chaotic discussion below, Wang Hou asked solemnly for a full four to five minutes.

"Everyone, do you want to rectify the troops and continue to pursue Yuan Shao?"

"Of course! Wang Shijun..., infantry general! As long as Yuan Shao is killed, Hebei will be completely flat, why not pursue him!"

Almost without thinking about it, Cao Hong was already yelling loudly, following him, Xia Houyuan also yelled eagerly.

"Putting Yuan back to the north is like going back to the mountain with a tiger, General of the Infantry! We will chase after Yuan Shao bravely and kill Yuan Shao!"

But before the two of them finished speaking, Yu Jin, the captain of Zuojun, objected urgently. He shook his head solemnly and said.

"Our army has a lot of infantry, which is more than enough for defense and not enough for offense! Moreover, Yuan Shao still has tens of thousands of cavalry in his hands. On the plain, the risk of chasing and killing is too great! The infantry general, according to the opinion of the last general, stick to Yuan's camp and arrange the prisoners. It is better to wait for the prime minister to deal with it!"

"Yu Jin, the battle opportunity is fleeting, how can you stand still? If you are afraid of death, just stay behind, and I, Xia Houyuan, will lift the head of Yuan Shao's old thief and accomplish this immortal feat!"

"Afraid of death! I was the first in the imperial army to enter Yuan's camp! Your troops dispersed to loot, and my troops followed the infantry general to pursue and pursue! If you want to delay the opportunity, it is you Xia Houyuan who delayed the opportunity. What shame do you have?" Shout out here!"

"Yu Jin! You're full of spittle, you're kind, go out and fight with me for [-] rounds!"

"Why don't you dare!"

When the leadership is difficult, Wang Hou has learned the lesson. Some advocated chasing, while others advocated staying behind. Before, pinching the mustache on his chin, Wang Hou couldn't help but fell into a tangle.

The weakness of Hebei is Yuan Shao himself. When he was there, he could still bridge the contradictions of all parties. At least Hebei is still one, but once Yuan Shao died, the Nanyang faction Yingchuan faction and Jizhou faction refused to give in to each other. The masters like Xi are not fuel-efficient lamps. Sooner or later, they will get angry together and kill Yuan Shao. Maybe Cao Cao will be able to rule the north for a few years, and maybe he will be able to kill them all before the two big rivals, Sun Quan and Liu Bei, grow up. Perhaps the Three Kingdoms era will not appear, and the unified Cao Wei may not allow the rise of Xianbei, and the tragedy of the five random chaos will happen again!
A series of thoughts flashed through Wang Hou's mind like lightning, but just as he blurted out, a "Neighbor Wu's Second" suddenly came into view in the class of civil servants below.

It was really like having a seizure, Jia Xu kept shaking her head slightly, and glanced left and right from time to time, for fear that others would find out, but she still had to stare at herself, for fear that she would not find out, it was hard enough for him!

He glanced at him in astonishment, and suddenly his eyes fell on Xun Yu thoughtfully. Seeing his rigid old face and not saying a word, Wang Hou changed his mind instantly!

"Pass down the general's order! All the ministries prepare their troops, take care of the prisoners, count their supplies, and be ready to pursue Yuan Shao at any time!"

"The last will obey!"

This time, the tent is finally tidy!
