368: Yuan Shao is captured, Cao Cao offers a plan!
After Yuan Shao was captured, he found that the scouts were wearing the clothes of Chang'an guards, and he shouted to see Cao Cao.
Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were young, and this time they were going to him to help them escape.
Unexpectedly, when Yuan Shao reported his name, the scouts cheered excitedly on the spot. This made Yuan Shao feel a little uneasy.
It turned out that when Cao Cao arrived at Chang'an City, he immediately ordered his troops to assemble to attack Yuan Shao's army, and promised a lot of money, saying that whoever captured Yuan Shao would be rewarded heavily.
It's just that Cao Cao's men and horses didn't know that Youfufeng County had long been taken by Wen Chou. After the army assembled, they sent scouts to check the terrain nearby.
And this pair of scouts never thought that they would be so lucky to capture Yuan Shao.
When Yuan Shao was brought into the camp, Xiahou Dun personally came to recognize him.
When Yuan Shao saw Xiahou Dun coming, he hurriedly shouted his name, "Xiahou Yuanrang, I am Yuan Shao, a close friend of your brother, let me go!
Xiahou Dun's character Yuan Rang, he was the vanguard of Yuan Shao's army this time, and when he saw that the prisoner was really Yuan Shao, he was also a little overjoyed.
"It's really the post-general Yuan Benchu! The army has just moved, and it took no effort to get here. God really helped me!"
After Xiahou Dun recognized the person, he instructed his subordinates to strictly guard him, and he would escort him to Chang'an City in the morning.
After Xiahou Dun finished speaking, he turned around and left. Yuan Shaoke was dumbfounded. He heard it very clearly. Not only did Xiahou Dun not let him go, but he wanted to escort him to Chang'an.
Moreover, Xiahou Dun also mentioned that the army went on an expedition. Could it be that all this was arranged by Cao Cao, and he was only separated from him yesterday, so why did he suddenly attack him?
Coupled with the fact that Youfufeng County was occupied by Wen Chou, does this indicate that Cao Cao has fallen to Liu He?
After thinking about it, Yuan Shao suddenly felt a great fear. He wanted to escape only because the rope was too tight, and the guards were very strict.
In this way, Yuan Shao spent the night in a mood of fear and anxiety. The next day just before dawn, he heard a familiar voice from outside.
"Brother Ben Chu is fine."!"
As soon as Yuan Shao heard that the voice should be Cao Cao, he was annoyed at the time. The two had agreed to be each other's allies before, but after only two days, Cao Cao stabbed him in the back.
"Hey, you Cao Mengde, you betrayed your trust and betrayed your friend to seek glory. I only regret that I always treated you as a brother when I was a child. If I knew you were such a person, I should not have recommended you to the court!
When Cao Cao entered office, Yuan Shao helped a lot. He was able to become one of the eight captains of the West Garden, and it was Yuan Shao's full support.
Sure enough, Yuan Shao was very emotional when he mentioned the past Cao Cao.
Seeing that he screened out his subordinates, he also loosened Yuan Shao's bond himself.
"Brother Ben Chu is too hasty this time!" Cao Cao sighed with some hatred of iron becoming steel.
Yuan Shaona didn't appreciate it but responded with a blank eye.
Cao Cao was helpless, and could only continue to explain earnestly: "Alas, brother Benchu has not yet figured out the true intentions of the court, so he was eager to get his soldiers to approach the Liangzhou territory."
"...Do you really think that Liu He will be trapped in Luoyang City? I have reminded you many times that until the moment when things are confirmed, you must not let your subordinates enter the Xiliang territory!
Cao Cao did remind Yuan Shao more than once, but Yuan Shao was used to being arrogant and arrogant, so he didn't listen to it at all.
The general Ju Yi, who was sent to the border by Yuan Shao, also had the same arrogant temper as Yuan Shao.
After receiving Yuan Shao's order, he relied on his ability to command the army and drove straight to the border between Youfufeng and Xiliang.
It's not enough to make such a move, Ju Yi even sends a large group of troops to conduct military tests around Xiliang from time to time.
This move is impossible for ordinary princes to tolerate, let alone Liu He, the commander of the Zhenxi Army.
Anyone who dares to approach the Zhenxi Army's territory without authorization will be wiped out, no matter which side, even the imperial army.
This is a strict order from Liu He to several of his troops.
The purpose is to let the soldiers have the concept of territory in their hearts, and have a sense of responsibility to defend the soil.
Cao Cao's words sounded very reasonable, but Yuan Shao's only tens of thousands of horses all served, and he himself became a prisoner, and he didn't take Cao Cao's favor at all.
"What's the point of you saying this, now that I'm your captive, don't hurry up and send me to Liu He to get the merit!" Yuan Shao said with extreme contempt.
Cao Cao sighed helplessly again and replied, "If I really wanted to take credit, I wouldn't have come here from Chang'an City early in the morning!"
Cao Cao's words made Yuan Shao hear some hope, and he asked tentatively, "Meng De is nostalgic, is he ready to let me go?"
Cao Cao shook his head, Yuan Shao once again showed annoyed and contemptuous eyes.
"Since you don't want to let me go, then don't come to the cat to cry and the mouse to pretend to be compassionate!"
"Brother Benchu is still not calm enough!" Cao Cao glanced around to make sure that there was no one around, and then asked in a low voice: "`" I wonder if Brother Benchu wants to die or survive?
Sending troops to harass Xiliang, Liu He can easily sentence Yuan Shao to death if he wants to.
It's just that Cao Cao said that there is still hope for survival?
"Naturally, I want to live, although a man is not afraid of death, but... it would be too useless to die like this!
Yuan Shao once again showed his pleading eyes, it is better to die than to live, and if you can live, you will never hope to die.
"If Brother Benchu can kneel down and plead guilty after meeting Queen Jinyang, and put the blame on the imperial decree given by the imperial court... Maybe there is still hope for survival."
The reason why Cao Cao and Yuan Shao dared to move troops to Liu He's territory privately was because of the promise made to them half a month ago by the imperial court.
At that time, both of them saw the determination of the court and thought that Liu He would lose power after entering Luoyang, so they just took the risk of transferring troops.
It's just that Cao Cao's actions were more low-key. He used the pretext of exterminating the white wave bandits around Bingzhou and Chang'an.
Unlike Yuan Shao, who sent his soldiers to Xiliang with such great fanfare.
…
(Li Zhao's) Liu He's army in Chang'an City was about to leave, when Cao Cao suddenly ran and said that Yuan Shao had surrendered.
Liu He couldn't help laughing after hearing this. He knew about You Fufeng's battle for a long time. The reason why he ordered Cao Cao to send troops was just to test his loyalty.
In addition, he ordered Yuan Shao to be captured alive. At that time, Yuan Shao was alone. When he learned that the city was occupied and that there were no soldiers available, he would definitely ask his friend Cao Cao for help.
So Liu He thinks that Cao Cao will catch Yuan Shao easily, but Yuan Shao suddenly turned himself in today, will there be Cao Cao in the middle to help that?
"Since he surrendered himself, then Yuan Benchu must have something to defend, so I'd like to hear how he saves himself!
Ask for flowers!! Ask for tickets!!!! Ask for custom!!!!!.
