The weather in Xunxian county is 30 days

Battle of Red Cliffs: From July to 12, 2008, Cao Cao took the strategy of "Showing the beauty of red leaves in the Bay and marching lightly to cover up the surprise attack" by his chief strategic adviser Shang Shuling and serving Yu Xun, and led a great army south to Jingzhou and headed for Wancheng and Yexian. In addition, Yang Wu's corps commander and advice doctor Cao Hong were sent to launch a surprise attack from Dongjing. In August, Liu Biao died in Jingzhou, and his second son, Liu Cong, succeeded to the throne. In September, Cao Hong, the pioneer of Jun, defeated Jingzhou Army in Wuyin and Wang Bo successively, and the vanguard of Jun has entered a new field. In addition, after Cao Cao captured Zhanglingjun, he ordered Zhao Yan to take Zhang Ling as the prefect and commander-in-chief to protect the army, and has been leading Zhang Liao, Yu Jin, Zhang He, Zhu Ling, Li Dian, Feng Kai and Zhao Lu to station in Zhanglingjun as backup and support from the east. When Liu Cong panicked, he accepted the persuasion of Kuai Yue and Fu Xun. When Fancheng had been preparing to resist Cao Jun, he did not inform the station troops to vote for Jingzhou Left General Liu Bei and secretly surrendered to Cao Cao. Liu Bei didn't know that Liu Cong had surrendered until Cao Cao's army arrived near Wancheng, so he sent someone to ask Liu Cong. At this time, Liu Cong sent Zhong Song to tell Liu Bei that Liu Bei was frightened and angry. In order to avoid being isolated, he had to abandon Fan Nan and flee immediately. When crossing the river to Xiangyang, Zhuge Liang, the counselor, advised Liu Bei to seize Xiangyang. Liu Bei refused to go south and sent Guan Yu to lead the water army to advance by water. But around Liu Cong and Jingzhou, many scholars defected to Liu Bei and fled with him. In this way, the speed of Liu Bei's army was greatly slowed down, and it could only travel more than ten miles a day. At that time, Jiangling (Nanjun Zhisuo) stored a lot of grain, grass, weapons and so on. Someone advised Liu Bei to leave the people and capture Jiangling first, but Liu Bei didn't want to. Cao Cao heard the news of Liu Beinan's departure, fearing that he would get Jiangling's army, so he gave up the trench and went to Xiangyang lightly. He also ordered Le Jin to keep Xiangyang, and Huang Xu to keep Fancheng, and personally pursued Liu Bei with Cao Chun and Jingzhou Wen Pin. According to "Han Shu Jin Chun Qiu", Wang Wei of Liu Cong once advised Liu Cong to capture Cao Cao alive with Indiana Jones when Cao Cao was unprepared to surrender, but Liu Cong did not adopt it.

Jianghan in Ma Yin

Cao Jun's butch rode at a speed of 300 days and caught up with Liu Bei in Nagano. At that time, although Liu Bei had more than ten people and thousands of treasures, there were very few soldiers who could fight. Liu Bei left his wife and children behind and fled with dozens of people, including Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and Zhuge Liang. Cao Jun won Liu Bei's army and countless treasures, and even captured Liu Bei's two wives. Because Mrs. Gan and the young failed to escape in time, Zhao Yun killed them again and rescued them. At the same time, Liu Bei ordered Zhang Fei to lead twenty riders to patrol. Zhang Fei pulled down the bridge first and immediately said, "I'm Zhang Yide, but I can come * * *!" No one dared to go near Cao Jun, and Liu Bei was able to escape, but Cao Cao did not pursue Liu Bei, but rushed to Jiangling. Prior to this, Sun Quan [1], the general of Wu Hou and Lu, who was entrenched in Jiangdong, was increasingly powerful. In the spring of the 13th year of Jian 'an, Sun Quan defeated Liu Biao, who was guarding Jiangxia, occupied several counties in Jiangxia, opened the door to Jingzhou in the west, and waited for an opportunity to annex Jingxiang. When Sun Quan heard that Cao Cao was going south, he accepted Lu Su's suggestion and sent Lu Su to Jingzhou in the name of Liu Biao's funeral. In fact, he wanted to find out the intentions and news of Liu Bei and others. When Lu Su arrived in Nanjun, news came that Liu Cong had surrendered and Liu Beinan had fled. Lu Su then went north and met Liu Bei in Osaka in Dangyang, and immediately persuaded Liu Bei to unite with Sun Quan. Liu Bei obeyed, turned around and joined Guan Yu's water army from Hanshui to the east. He joined more than 10,000 people under Liu Qi, the eldest son of Liu Biao and the satrap of Jiangxia who came to reinforce, and then retreated to the gorge on the east bank of the Yangtze River. After Cao Cao occupied Jiangling, he immediately took measures to stabilize the state officials and people, ordered "Jingzhou officials and people to work together and turn over a new leaf", and vigorously publicized Jingzhou's "submission". As a result, there were 15 members of the Jing nationality who were blocked. Han Song, Kuai Yue, Deng and others were appointed as Jingzhou celebrities, and Cai Mao was appointed as a captain engaged in corps commander, Sima and Changshui. At the beginning of Cao Cao's expedition to Jingzhou, Yizhou Pastoral Liu Zhang had already sent his subordinate Pu Yin to pay tribute to Cao Cao. In order to appease Liu Zhang, Cao Cao added Liu Zhang as a general. Soon, Zhang Su sent another driver to deliver munitions to Cao Cao, expressing his willingness to accept the call-up. Zhang Su was appointed as the rafter of the Prime Minister's House, and worshipped the prefect of Guanghan. After Cao Cao occupied Jingzhou, Liu Zhang once again sent another driver to Zhang Song to see Cao Cao, but Cao Cao was too proud and tired of Liu Zhang's constant bargain, so he ignored him. Master Yang Xiu advised Cao Cao to make Zhang Song his home, but Cao Cao refused. Zhang Song resented it, which paved the way for later persuading Liu Zhang to get along with Liu Bei. Cao Cao took the surrendered Jingzhou water army as the main force in the water war and prepared for the eastward expedition. Some people say that the target is Liu Bei, while others point out that this is a convenient way to corrupt Sun Quan's Jiangdong. Jia Xu persuaded the resources of Jingzhou, Cao Liyong to regulate the army and the people and stabilize the newly occupied land, but Cao Cao disagreed with him. Pei Songzhi, a historian in the Southern Dynasties, also thought that Jia Xu's statement was "inappropriate at that time".

be as close as lips and teeth—be closely related and mutually dependent

In October, Cao Cao left Coss to be stationed in Jiangling, and he personally led the army eastward. Zhuge Liang saw Cao Cao coming down from the east and said to Liu Bei, "It's urgent. Please order General Sun for help. " So he and Lu Su went back to Chaisang (now southwest of Jiujiang, Jiangxi) to see Sun Quan. Liu Bei also moved to the south bank of the Yangtze River and was stationed in Fankou. After Zhuge Liang arrived in Chaisang, he first stimulated Sun Quan by goading. Then I realized that Sun Quan didn't want to be controlled by Cao Cao, but worried that Cao Cao was too powerful to match. Zhuge Liang later announced that Liu Bei's troops were still not less than 20,000, and he was capable of fighting Cao Cao. Then it analyzes the disadvantages of Cao Cao: the expedition of teachers and the fatigue of foot soldiers; Northerners don't learn water warfare; Jingzhou people did not really join Cao Cao. Zhuge Liang believed that Sun Quan and Liu could turn defeat into victory by joining forces, and made it clear that there would be a three-point world after the war, and Sun Quan was gradually persuaded. But at that time, Cao Cao was menacing, and some family members, represented by Zhang Zhao, advocated surrender, thinking that Cao Cao's name was Han Xiang, and it was unreasonable to rely on the emperor to conquer all directions. Cao Cao has occupied the Yangtze River, and there is no natural barrier to defend in Jiangdong. Cao Jun is under water and on land, and his offensive is very strong. Jiangdong was unable to resist, so he advised Sun Quan to see Cao Cao. At this time, Cao Cao sent a letter of surrender, which read: "Today, there are 800,000 water conservancy troops, and Fang and others will hunt in Wu." The intimidation is extremely heavy. Therefore, Zhang Zhao and others surrendered to Cao Cao more firmly, and Sun Quan had a hard time making a choice. Lu Su secretly followed Sun Quan when he went to the toilet, pointing out that Zhang Zhao and others were not qualified. He also said that if he surrendered to Cao Cao, he could be a magistrate, but if Sun Quan, the master of one side, surrendered, Cao Cao would never tolerate it. Sun Quan lamented that Zhang Zhao and others were "very disappointed", so he agreed to Lu Su's suggestion to recall Zhou Yu's business strategy in Poyang. After Zhou Yu came back, he also insisted on resisting Cao. He analyzed Cao Jun's weaknesses one by one, roughly the same as Zhuge Liang's analysis: Cao Jun was exhausted and was bound to get sick; The weather is cold and the horse has no grass; Ma Chao and Han Sui are still in Kansai, which is Cao Cao's future trouble; Soldiers in the Central Plains abandoned the advantages of cavalry, but did not learn how to fight water. Then, the actual strength of Cao Jun was further analyzed, and it was pointed out that Cao Jun from the Central Plains had only150,000 to 60,000 people, but he was tired after a long battle, and the 70,000 to 80,000 people who lost their lives were suspicious. So as long as there are 50 thousand chosen men, they can be defeated. So Sun Quan finally made up his mind, drew his sword in public and cut off the corner of the table, saying, "General, if you dare to speak again, be the one who welcomes the drill, just like this case!" Zhou Yu and Cheng Pu were appointed as the left and right governors, and Lu Su was appointed as the commander of Zan Army to help plan the strategy. He led 30,000 foot soldiers including Huang Gai, Han Dang, Lv Meng, Ling Tong, Gan Ning, Zhou Tai and Lv Fan to fight against Cao with Liu Bei along the river. Sun Quan, on the other hand, continued to be stationed in Chaisang as a backup, delivering supplies for Zhou Yu, and told Zhou Yu that if the war was unfavorable, "he would still be alone, and he would be alone with Meng De." At this time, many people in Cao camp thought that Sun Quan would kill Liu Bei if he didn't dare to resist Cao Cao, and then follow in Liu Cong's footsteps. This idea is also revealed in Cao Cao's surrender book, but Cheng Yu thinks that people lack understanding of Sun Quan, which may be a misjudgment of Sun Quan's courage. Liu Bei's reputation is abroad, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are ten thousand enemies, and Sun Quan knows that he can't support himself, so he will definitely support Liu Bei and unite Liu Bei against Cao Cao. Then as Cheng Yu predicted.

Battle red cliff

In December, Zhou Yu led an army to meet Liu Bei at Fankou. The two armies went against the current to Chibi and met Cao Jun who was crossing the river. At that time, Cao Jun had been affected by the plague, but it was difficult for the new water army to run in with the newly attached Jingzhou water army, and the morale was obviously insufficient, so Zhou Yu's water army defeated him in the first battle. Cao Cao had to "lead the water army to the north of the Yangtze River" to meet the army, lean the warships to the Wulin side on the north shore, practice the water army, and wait for the opportunity. Zhou Yu docked the warship at Chibi on the south bank, facing Cao Jun across the river. At that time, Cao Cao was not used to the northern foot soldiers taking a boat, so he connected the boat end to end, and both men and women were on board. Zhou Yu suggested to Huang Gai: "Today, being outnumbered, it is difficult to last. However, the military ship is connected with the ship end to end, and it can burn away. " [2] Zhou Yu used Huang Gai's fire attack strategy to let Huang Gai write to Cao Cao to surrender in order to get close to Cao Cao's warships. On the day of the war, Huang Gai had prepared ten light boats, full of firewood and oil, disguised as red curtains and flags. At that time, the southeast wind was urgent, and ten ships were sailing in front of Zhongjiang. Huang Gai saw the torch in his hand, and all the soldiers shouted in unison: "What's going on!" Cao Jun's officers and men were unprepared. "They all waited, watched and pointed at the words." . Two miles from Cao Jun, Huang Gai ordered the firewood to be lit, and at the same time he became very angry. The fire was fierce, and the ship flew like an arrow, burning up the north ship and extending to the camp on the shore. Smoke billowed in an instant, and countless people were burned and drowned. On the other hand, Sun Liujun crossed the Yangtze River and defeated Cao Jun in the chaos. Seeing that the defeat was irreversible, Cao Cao immediately set himself on fire and led his troops to retreat in the direction of Jiangling along Huarong Road (now Jianli North, Hubei Province). Zhou Yu and Liu Bei's troops went hand in hand, always following. Cao Jun suffered more than half of the casualties in this battle. After Cao Cao returned to Jiangling, he was afraid of losing Chibi and making the regime in the rear unstable. He immediately returned to the north, leaving Coss and Huang Xu in Nanjun (the place where Jiangling was ruled), and then appointed Lejin to guard Xiangyang, and Man Chong as Wei Fen's agent, stationed in Dangyang. Sun and Liu joined forces to win the victory in Battle of Red Cliffs. Battle of Red Cliffs's failure made Cao Cao lose the possibility of unifying the whole country in a short time, while Sun and Liu took this opportunity to develop their respective forces, and the battle between Cao Cao, Liu and Sun for Jingzhou began. After that, Cao Cao returned to the north, and there was no chance to go south on such a large scale, but he still occupied Nanyang and Nanjun (Xiangyang County and Nanxiang County were separated from Nanjun and Nanyang County [Zhang Ling County]). Liu Bei began to attack Lingling, Wuling, Guiyang and Changsha counties south of the Yangtze River, and Sun Quan ordered Zhou Yu to besiege Jiangling County of the Southern Army.

Jedi counterattack

In the 14th year of Jian 'an (AD 209), Sun Quan led an army to attack Hefei in the north and Zhang Zhao led an army to attack Dangtu in Jiujiang County in the north (see the first battle of Hefei for details), but both were defeated. Zhou Yu and others were ordered to attack Jiangling, and Coss stayed behind and confronted each other across the river. Zhou Yu also sent Gan Ning to attack Yiling (now Yichang, Hubei), and Coss also divided his troops to besiege. Gan ning asked Zhou Yu for help. Zhou Yu used Lv Meng's plan to stay in Ling Tong, and then he and Lv Meng went to save him. After the siege of Gan Ning, he led his troops to the north shore. Wu Junxian surrounded Coss who came to fight Taurus, but later Coss broke into the army twice and saved himself. After the war between the two sides. Zhou Yu personally straddled the horse, but was shot on the right by a flowing arrow, which was quite badly hurt, so he returned it. Later Coss knew that Zhou Yu didn't get up, so he sent his troops to Zhen Wu. Zhou Yu got up and went to the barracks to encourage the officials and Cao Rengui to return. Then the two sides confronted each other. Lv Meng later recalled: "Yesterday, Zhou Yu and Cheng Pu were the left and right governors and attacked Jiangling. Although he was the master, Pu relied on himself for a long time and was a vassal, so * * * disagreed and lost several state affairs. " It can be seen that the internal contradiction between Zhou and Cheng is also one of the reasons why Jiangling has been unable to attack for a long time. On the other hand, Liu Bei listed Liu Qi, the satrap of Jiangxia, as the secretariat of Jingzhou, and led his own army to quickly capture the four counties of Wuling (now Changde, Hunan), Changsha, Guiyang (now Chenxian, Hunan) and Lingling (now Yongzhou, Hunan) in Jingnan, and the four counties surrendered one after another. Liu Bei appointed Zhuge Liang, a military commander, to supervise Lingling, Guiyang and Changsha counties, and to adjust taxes and exile the army. At the same time, Xu Lei, Chen Lan and other local forces entrenched in Lujiang County rebelled in succession. Cao Cao ordered the Xia generals to suppress, General Hu Jin and General Hu attacked Meicheng, and General Zhang Liao and General Ping Di attacked. Chen Lan and Mei Cheng were beheaded. After the defeat, Xu Lei led tens of thousands of Song people to flee to Jingzhou to take refuge in Liu Bei. After Liu Bei's strength grew, he marched into Jiangling to assist Zhou Yu, put Zhang Fei and his 1,000 troops under Zhou Yu's command, borrowed 2,000 foot soldiers from Zhou Yu, and sent Guan Yu and Wu to wait for the water to cut off the northern road, cut off the connection between Xiangyang and Jiangling, and completely besieged Coss. Le Jin, Huang Xu and Man Chong led the troops to Xia Shui and Han Jin to crusade against Guan Yu, but Guan Yu was defeated. Later, Li Tong, the prefect of Runan, was ordered to lead a group of people to rescue Coss. He fought all the way, dismounted and pulled out his antlers himself, and won the title of general, but he fell ill and died on the way. Finally, after being besieged for more than a year, Coss ran out of food and grass and suffered heavy casualties. He was forced to take the initiative to evacuate, and Zhou Yujun was stationed in Jiangling. According to Nanjun and Jiangxia, Sun Quan appointed Zhou Yu as the partial general, led the Southern County satrap, appointed Cheng Pu as the Xiapi general, and led Jiangxia satrap. Later, Liu Bei met Sun Quan and asked the governor of Jingzhou. Lu Su persuaded Sun Quan to agree and rejected Cao Cao with * * *. Sun Quan later admitted the fact that Liu Bei occupied the land south of the Yangtze River. Cao Cao was writing when he heard about it. His pen fell to the ground in astonishment. [3] Liu Bei named Sun Quan as a general, commanding Xuzhou animal husbandry and Jingzhou animal husbandry, and set the resident and base camp in Youkou River, renamed public security. In order to deepen the relationship between Sun Quan and Liu, Sun Quan married his sister to Liu Bei. During this period, many old officials and soldiers of Liu Biao defected to Liu Bei. Cao Cao sent Jiang Gan to lobby Zhou Yu to defect, but failed. In the fifteenth year of Jian 'an, after Zhou Yu's death, Lu Su, a captain of Fenwu, took over Zhou Yu's troops and stationed in Jiangling. At the suggestion of Lu Su, Sun Quannan "lent" the South County he owned in Jingzhou to Liu Bei, so Liu Bei occupied most of Jingzhou's territory and moved to Jiangling. Sun Quan also asked Liu Bei to delimit a part of Changsha County into its territory, set up Hanchang County, take Lu Su as the satrap, and change the road junction [4]. The embryonic form of the world's three-thirds has begun to take shape, and the struggle for victory has opened a new prelude.

Battle of Guandu: Emperor Xian of the Eastern Han Dynasty took Jian 'an for five years (200 years) and Jian 'an for three years (198 years). Yuan Shao defeated Gongsun Zan and occupied the land of Qing, You and Ji. In the first year of Jian' an, the map of the battle of Cao Guandu

Cao Cao held Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty hostage to Xu County, forming a situation of "holding the emperor to make the princes" and gaining political advantage. In the spring of the second year of Jian 'an (197), Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor in Shouchun (now Shouxian County, Anhui Province). Cao Cao attacked and destroyed Yuan Shu in the name of "Feng Zhao can't be a minister". Then, he destroyed Lu Bu and took advantage of Zhang Yang's internal struggle to gain Hanoi County. From then on, Cao Cao's influence reached Guanzhong in the west and Yanzhou, Henan and Xuzhou in the east, controlling most of the areas south of the Yellow River and north of Huai Han, thus forming a confrontation with Yuan Shao in the lower reaches of the Yellow River. Yuan Shao's strength at that time far exceeded that of Cao Cao, so he was naturally unwilling to be under Cao Cao. He is determined to fight against Cao Cao. In June of the fourth year of Jian 'an (199), Yuan Shao selected 65,438+10,000 elite soldiers and 10,000 war horses in an attempt to attack Xudu South, and the battle of Guandu began.

earlier stage

The news of Yuan Shaoju's troops going south reached Xudu, and Cao Cao thought that Yuan Jun was extremely powerful and invincible. However, according to his understanding of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao recognized the battle of Guandu.

Ambitious, lacking in courage, unkind and headstrong, Yuan Shaozhi decided to confront Yuan Shaozhi's attack with tens of thousands of troops he could concentrate. In order to gain the strategic initiative, he made the following arrangements: sending and leading elite troops from Langya (now north of Linyi, Shandong Province) to Qingzhou, occupying Qi (now Linzi, Shandong Province), Beihai (now Changle, Shandong Province), Dong 'an (now Yishui County, Shandong Province) and other places to contain Yuan Shao, consolidate the right wing and prevent attacking Xudu from the east; Cao Cao led his troops into Liyang, Jizhou (now east of Xunxian County, Henan Province, on the north bank of the Yellow River), and ordered him to ride two thousand men to guard the important ferry on the south bank of the Yellow River (now north of Henan Province), assist the prefect of Dongjun to guard Baima (now east of Huaxian County, Henan Province, south bank of the Yellow River), prevent Yuan Jun from crossing the river, and at the same time set up a base in Guandu (now northeast of Zhongmou, Henan Province) to stop Yuan Shao. Send someone to subdue Guanzhong, take Liangzhou and stabilize the flank. Judging from the above arrangements, Cao Cao's strategic policy is not to divide his troops to defend the south bank of the Yellow River, but to concentrate his forces, guard key passes and focus on fortifications for the enemy. Judging from the situation at that time, this deployment was appropriate. First of all, there are more Yuan Shaobing than Cao Cao and Serenade, and there are many places to cross the Yellow River. If the troops are dispersed, it will be impossible to prevent Yuan Jun from going south, and it will make his already inferior troops more dispersed. Secondly, Guandu is located in the upper reaches of the gap and is close to Bianshui. Xiaqu, which connects Hulao Pass, Gongguan and Luoguan in the west and Huaisi Pass in the east, is a barrier between the north and the south of Xudu, an important Tianjin and a battleground for Yuan Shao to seize Xudu. In addition, Guandu is close to Xudu, and the logistics supply is more convenient than that in Yuan Jun .. In December of the fourth year of Jian 'an (199), when Cao Cao was deploying a crusade against Yuan Shao, Liu Bei rose up to crusade against Cao Cao, occupied Xiapi and moved the capital to Peixian (now Peixian, Jiangsu). Increase to tens of thousands of people, and contact Yuan Shao, intending to jointly attack Cao. In order to keep Xuchang in touch with the Qing and Yan States and avoid fighting on both sides, Cao Cao personally led a good soldier to crusade against Liu Bei in February of the following year, quickly occupied Pei County, turned to Xiapi and forced Guan Yu to land. Liu Bei was wiped out and fled to Hebei alone to go to Yuan Shao. When Cao and Liu were fighting fiercely, Tian Feng, Yuan Shao's counselor, suggested that Yuan Shao "lead the army to attack the rear", but Yuan Shao refused to adopt it on the grounds that his youngest son was ill, which led Cao Cao to defeat Liu Bei calmly and return to Guandu. [1] In the first month of the fifth year of Jian 'an (200 years), Yuan Shaopa sent Chen Lin to write a campaign for publication, in which Cao Cao was severely scolded. In February, he entered the battlefield site of the battle of Li Guandu.

Yang wanted to cross the river and fight with the main force of Jun, and first sent Yan Liang to attack the satrap of Baima East County in an attempt to seize the south bank of the Yellow River and ensure the main force to cross the river. In April, in order to take the initiative, Cao Cao won the first battle and personally led the troops to the north to rescue the white horse. At this time, Xun You, the counselor, thought that Yuan Shaobing had more troops, and suggested a diversion to disperse his troops. First, lead troops to Yanjin, cross the river in disguise, attack Yuan Shaobing's rear, make Yuan Shaobing divide his forces to the west, and then send Qingqi to attack Yuan Jun, who is attacking Baima. By surprise, Yan Liang will be defeated. Cao Cao adopted this suggestion, and Yuan Shao was sure to divide his troops and delay Tianjin. Cao Cao took the opportunity to lead a Qingqi and sent Zhang Liao and Guan Yu as pioneers, eager for a white horse. Guan Yu quickly approached Liang Jun, rushed into the army, killed Yan Liang and beheaded him. Yuan Jun was defeated. After Cao Cao solved the siege of Baima, the people who migrated to Baima retreated westward along the Yellow River. Yuan Shao led the army to cross the river in pursuit, and the army went south to Yanjin, and sent generals Wen Chou and Liu Bei to continue to lead the troops in pursuit of Jun. At that time, Cao Cao had only 600 cavalry, stationed under Nansakan (Baima South), while Yuan Junda rode five or six thousand, followed by infantry. Cao Cao ordered the soldiers to untie their saddles and release their horses, deliberately leaving the trench by the roadside. As soon as Yuan Jun saw the recruits, he began to fight for property. Cao Cao suddenly attacked, finally defeated Yuan Jun, killed Wen Chou (died by mutinous soldiers, not by Guan Yu), and returned to Guandu smoothly.

A favorable change

Yuan Jun lost the first battle, but his troops still had the upper hand. In July, he marched into Wu Yang (now Zhongmou North, Henan Province) and prepared to attack Xu Changnan. In August, Yuan Jun's main force approached Guandu, and camped in the sand pile, which was about dozens of miles wide from east to west. Cao Cao also camped and confronted Yuan Jun .. In September, Cao Jun once attacked, failed to win, and returned to the camp to hold on. Yuan Shao built a tower and a mountain, and hit Cao Ying with an arrow. According to counselor Liu, a lightning car with a riprap device was built and the new building was destroyed. Yuan Jun dug a tunnel to attack again, and Cao Jun also dug a long trench in the camp to resist, crushing Yuan Jun's plan. After three months of stalemate between the two sides, Cao Cao almost lost the confidence to persist, because of the difficult external environment, the lack of food in the front serenade, the fatigue of the foot soldiers and the instability in the rear. Yu Xun gave Cao Cao determination, so that Cao Cao persisted in the crisis and strengthened his defense. Ren Jun, who is in charge of logistics supply, was ordered to take the 10 road column as one, shorten the distance between the front and rear of the motorcade, and use multiple arrays (two arrays) to strengthen the escort to prevent Yuan Jun from attacking; On the other hand, they actively searched for and captured fighter planes, defeated Yuan Jun, and soon sent Coss and Shi Huan to intercept and burn thousands of grain wagons in Yuan Jun, which increased Yuan Jun's supply difficulties.

Make a surprise attack

In October of the same year, Yuan Shao sent a car to transport grain, and Chunyu Qiong led the troops to escort 10 thousand, stationed in the old city about 20 kilometers north of Yuan Jun Daying (Hecao)

South Yanjin County) and Wu Chao (now Henan plays Southeast Jin). Just then, Yuan Shao's counselor Xu You defected to Cao Cao and suggested that Cao Cao go into battle lightly, raid the lair and burn its trench. Cao Cao immediately put it into practice, leaving Cao Hong and Xun You to guard the camp, personally leading the troops to ride 5,000, falsely using the banner, and people tied their horses to shut up, each with a pile of firewood, and attacked Wu's lair in the dark. Upon arrival, they immediately surrounded and set fire to it. When Yuan Shao learned that Cao Cao had attacked the Wu Dynasty, he only sent light cavalry to rescue him, while the main force stormed the camp in Cao Jun. But Cao Cao is too strong to attack. When Jun rushed to Wu Chao Chunyu Qiong Barracks, Yuan Shao's reinforcements were approaching. Cao fought to the death, defeated and killed Chunyu Qiong, and burned all his provisions. The front line in Yuan Jun heard that the Wu Dynasty was broken, which caused the morale of the army to be shaken, the internal division and the army to collapse. Yuan Shao hurried back to Hebei with 800 riders, and Cao Jun successively annihilated and killed more than 70,000 Yuan Jun.

result

The battle of Guandu, after more than a year of confrontation, ended in Cao Cao's overall victory. Cao Cao suddenly attacked with about 20,000 troops and defeated10,000 Yuan Jun ... This war case became a typical war case in the history of China. With his extraordinary intelligence and courage, Cao Cao wrote the most brilliant page in his military career. In the seventh year of Jian 'an (202), Yuan Shao died of defeat and depression, and Cao Cao took the opportunity to completely destroy Yuan's military clique. In the 12th year of Jian 'an (207), Cao Cao conquered Wuhuan again, and at this point, the war-torn north was unified.
