Chapter 567: Battle of Guandu (1)
Winter, the sixth year of Jian'an. (www
Guandu.
If Liu Feng, a butterfly, had not joined, according to the course of history, the Battle of Guandu would have entered the stage of the Wuchao Fire in October of the fifth year of Jian'an.[
It probably came to an end in the spring of the sixth year of Jian'an.
Just because Liu Feng joined and stabbed Cao Cao in the back, Yuan Shao never had a strong attack. Therefore, until now, in winter, the sixth year of Jian'an, this war has not come to an end.
After Liu Feng defeated Liu Bei, he stopped making any moves. He seemed to be on his own, which made Yuan Shao lose his patience. He regrouped and planned to attack Guandu with force.
Cao Cao had no choice but to continue to hold on to Guandu, and mobilized elite troops from all over the Central Plains to support Guandu. Compared with history, Cao Cao's food supply at this moment was even worse, and his interior was even more empty.
It seems that Guandu is about to collapse.
At this moment, Cao Jun's camp is in Guandu.
There were soldiers everywhere, and most of them were injured. Those who were slightly injured could still move around, while those who were seriously injured could only sit on the ground and howl.
Waiting for the choice of fate, either to die or to miraculously come back to life.
This is close to the rear of the area, and the soldiers who can still fight have been piled up to the front. They are holding their positions in the fortress built by Cao Cao.
In addition to the increase in wounded soldiers, the attrition of soldiers, and low morale, there was another major problem that troubled Cao Cao.
That is food.
Although Cao Cao unified the Central Plains, it was not smooth. Occasionally, he made a mistake, which led to the corruption of the Central Plains. For example, Chen Gong, Zhang Miao, Lu Bu, Tao Qian, Liu Bei, etc.
These evils caused the collapse of the Qiangqiang, but most of them were Cao Cao's own faults. As a result, during the process of pacification, the Central Plains became more and more dilapidated. It was completely different from Yuan Shao's effortless unification of Hebei.
This resulted in Yuan Shao having strong power and sufficient food and grass, while Cao Cao's power was weak and lacking food and grass.
The stalemate in Guandu has been going on for one year, almost two years. Cao Jun's food supply has already reached the bottom. If he doesn't find a way to squeeze in, he may run out of food in a few months.
It can be said that Cao Jun's entire army was troubled by this issue.
On this day, taking advantage of Yuan Shao's army's attack, Cao Cao once again summoned Cheng Yu, Xun You, Guo Jia and others from his tent to discuss the issue of military rations.
"The army is in urgent need of food supplies. I wonder if you have any good ideas?"
On the commander's seat, Cao Cao looked around at Cheng Yu, Xun Yu, Guo Jia and others, hoping to say something.[
"This." Even with the wisdom of Cheng Yu, Xun You, Guo Jia and others, they are all troubled and have no good ideas. All the methods that should be thought of have been thought of and implemented.
In this way, Cao's army could stand strong until now. Otherwise, it would have been defeated because of lack of food.
Seeing everyone's hesitation, Cao Cao's face turned ugly for a moment, and he couldn't help but said sadly: "Is it really Mr. Tian Jue?"
Seeing Cao Cao's sorrow, Cheng Yu hesitated for a moment, raised his fist and said: "Ming Gong, if it is a last resort, you can learn from the old things in Qingzhou."
The so-called past events refer to the time when Cao Cao was short of food. Cheng Yu raided his county, killed many innocent people, mixed some dry food, and built a shop for adults to provide food for the army.
