At this moment, the emperor's uncle's party in the group completely jumped up and started singing and dancing to celebrate. Even the prime minister's party, which had always been very strong, was choked to the point of being speechless.
There was no way, this time the victory achieved by the emperor's uncle's party was too great, and the whole process was too hearty. They almost completely trampled the prime minister's party under their feet, expressing their dissatisfaction over the past few days to their heart's content.
And Xiuyan once again became the hero of all the emperor's uncles, and also became a recognized prophet. After all, this prediction was a bit too accurate.
First of all, Cao Ren did retaliate against Liu Bei immediately. Although he did not mobilize all his 30,000 troops, he only left 5,000 men to defend the city, and the remaining 25,000 men were used for the attack.
But Liu Bei still only had 2,000 people.
Using 2,000 people to resist 25,000 people, a full 10 times difference in numbers, is looking for death no matter how you look at it, but under the command of Shan Fu, Liu Bei's troops still advanced.
Moreover, Cao Ren was very coquettish in setting up an eight-door golden lock formation, but Shan Fu completely saw through it. He commanded Zhao Yun and only used 500 people to break through the eight-door golden lock formation and kill Cao Ren's army. Big defeat.
As a result, Cao Ren was still unconvinced and wanted to sneak attack under the cover of night.
As a result, the new military advisor just saw the wind blowing outside the window, and immediately told Liu Bei that Cao Ren would come to rob the camp tonight. Liu Bei was shocked and asked how the military advisor knew, but Shan Fu just calmly said, " I have already calculated his death, and Cao Ren will definitely come according to my plan."
Sure enough, Cao Ren mobilized all his troops to rob the camp at night, but Liu Bei had already prepared. He took advantage of the darkness and laid an ambush. He placed a large amount of hay and tung oil in the camp. When Cao Ren's troops arrived, he directly sealed the gate of the camp. Then they set fire to the camp. Cao Ren's army was directly trapped in the camp, and most of them were burned alive and rushed out.
Not only that, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun led their troops to cover up the attack, and the entire 25,000-strong army was defeated and fled. Under the protection of Li Dian, Cao Ren barely escaped back to his home city of Fancheng.
Then the classic came. When Cao Ren returned to Fancheng, he suddenly found that his own flag on the city had disappeared and turned into Liu Bei's military flag.
Looking again, Guan Yu poked his head out from the city wall and looked at Cao Ren with a smile.
It turned out that the same strategist had calculated that Cao Ren would use all his troops to attack Fancheng at night and his base camp Fancheng would be empty. So while ambushing Cao Ren, he also asked Guan Yu to lead a group of elite soldiers to attack Fancheng at night. Cao Ren's base camp was directly taken away.
Fortunately, Cao Ren was not Zhou Yu, otherwise he would have been so angry that he vomited blood and died at this moment.
That's the basic content of these three chapters.
Although Cao Ren was not angered to death, the Prime Minister's Party in the group was. What's even worse is that the Emperor's Uncle Party began to jump in and deal with the enemy.
Probably because they were suppressed too hard by the Prime Minister's Party before, and how aggrieved they were before, the Emperor's Uncle Party was now so arrogant, with all kinds of exaggerated words coming out of their mouths.
for example:
Isn't your prime minister crazy? Why do you lose when 25,000 people beat 2,000 people?
Thousands of people lose, and I can do it even if I win.
I am Cao Ren, and I am panicking now. I am Li Dian, and I am panicking now. I am Cao Cao, why do I have two Bs?
In fact, these people who are making fun of and making fun of them are okay, they just spray them back. But what the Prime Minister and his party can't bear the most is some serious analysis.
These analyzes probably say this: Cao Cao had won many battles before because he had Guo Jia, a super counselor, but now, Guo Jia is dead.
But in turn, Liu Bei got Shan Fu, a super counselor. Among the civil servants, the emperor's uncle had already started to fight back.
As for the generals, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun are all enemies of ten thousand people, but what about the Prime Minister?
After reviewing the entire Cao army several times, only Xiahou Dun, Xu Chu, Zhang Liao, and Dian Wei were able to take a look at their military strength.
But Dian Wei had been played to death by Cao Cao himself. Zhang Liao is no match for Mr. Guan at all. Xu Chu is just a guard and doesn't know how to fight. The only one who can make a difference is Xiahou Dun. But Liu Bei has three people who are stronger than Xiahou Dun. how to spell?
Therefore, in terms of force, Liu Bei also crushed Cao Cao.
Therefore, in terms of talent reserve, Liu Bei, who only has Xinye, has actually surpassed Cao Cao, who has the entire north. His only weakness is the lack of troops.
But Liu Biao was already dead at this time. As long as Liu Biao died, Liu Bei could logically inherit the entire Jingzhou. After briefly cooperating with Soochow to resist Cao Cao's march south, he could directly kill Cao Cao and suffer a huge defeat, and then The ground counterattacked and the Han Dynasty was rebuilt.
Anyway, in the mouth of the emperor's uncle's party, the emperor's uncle has already won the pot at this time, and the recovery of the great man is just around the corner.
The Prime Minister's party was very angry, but there was no way they could do anything about it. They just yelled that Cao Ren was a pig. Twenty-five thousand people would lose if they fought against 2,000 people. If the Prime Minister came in person, how could there be such a defeat?
Then soon, they turned their finger on the poor miserable author.
They were angry and crazy in the group. @Garbage Author Yuanshi Tianwang himself, Luo Guanzhong, was here, asking him why he wanted to cheat Liu Bei like this. Is it reasonable to create such a pervert like Shan Fu out of thin air?
The Prime Minister's Party couldn't defeat the Emperor's Party, so they could only crazyly @garbageauthor, which made Liu Xu very confused. In the end, he had no choice but to respond, "This is history...the history of the world of China!"
Well, actually Liu Xu also felt that it was unreasonable, and he also felt that Xu Shu was a bit open, but the problem is that this is the original work of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and this is the real history.
Liu Xu studies history, so he actually knows that in history, Liu Bei did continuously display his power in Xinye, defeating the military attacks of Cao Ren and Xiahou Dun. These are all written in the official history, and they are true. A large number of other historical books serve as supporting evidence.
The original Romance of the Three Kingdoms does have some artistic touches. For example, it is obviously inappropriate to attribute all these credits to Xu Shu alone. In fact, this was a battle commanded by Liu Huangshu himself. Although Xu Shu made suggestions, he was able to firmly control the entire process. Liu Bei himself is the most worthy of praise for his execution of the strategy.
It's just that in order to highlight the drama, Teacher Luo Guanzhong gave these credits to Xu Shu. Speaking of which, Uncle Liu Huang was the one who suffered the most.
And at the same time, Liu Xu was still worried about another thing, which was whether Xu Shu should be given away in tomorrow's update.
All Chinese people know that after Liu Bei won this amazing victory, Prime Minister Cao used despicable means and used Xu Shu's mother as a threat to force Xu Shu to go to Cao Ying.
From then on, there were two famous sayings: Xu Shu entered Cao Ying without saying a word, and he was in Cao Ying and his heart was in Han.
But the real history is not like what is written in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, at least not entirely.
In real history, Xu Shu has been following Liu Bei since the seventh year of Jian'an. At the same time, he recommended Zhuge Liang to Liu Bei. Later, he took the initiative to give up his position as the mastermind to Zhuge Liang and assisted Zhuge Liang with peace of mind. Until Cao Jun launched a large-scale attack on Jingzhou.
After Liu Bei took the initiative to evacuate Xinye, Xu Shu followed Liu Bei and everyone fled to Changbanpo. Suddenly, news came that Xu Shu's missing mother had been captured by Cao Jun. At the same time, Cao Jun sent people to persuade him to surrender.
So Xu Shu had no choice but to leave Liu Bei and go to Cao Cao's camp on his own initiative. After that, there are basically no records of Xu Shu. Obviously, just like what is said in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Xu Shu was in Cao Cao's camp and his heart was with Han, and he would never give anything to Cao Cao for the rest of his life. count.
Looking at it this way, there seems to be no difference between the story of Xu Shu in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and the story of Xu Shu in history. However, the mother of Xu in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms was deceived by Cao Cao, and the mother even committed suicide in the end.
But in history, Xu's mother was captured when she was fleeing with Liu Bei. Cao Cao did not take the initiative to use such a despicable strategy. This is why Mao's version of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is often criticized. In order to respect Liu and demote Cao, Prime Minister Cao was often added Some black pot.
So now Liu Xu is faced with a choice, which is to continue to follow the original work in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and let Prime Minister Cao deceive Xu Shu back.
It is better to follow the true plot in history and restore Prime Minister Cao's innocence.
