"Yes, it turns out that this old man still hasn't given up on Yuan and Lu's plan to unite. He hates me deeply for ruining his plan, so he is absolutely unwilling to give me a chance. In his eyes, I am just hindering his unification. A stumbling block to the world’s great plans.”
Zhang Kun thought carefully for a while, his eyes flashed slightly, and he suddenly understood.
"What should I say? Is Chen Gongtai so ambitious?"
Lu Lingqi asked in confusion.
"It's not that he is ambitious, it's that he has the lofty ambition to help the Dragon Palace and bring peace to the world. People of this kind of gentry origin, no matter where they stand, will always take their own class very seriously and exclude other classes. In their bones, they don't follow We are on the same path. Your father didn't understand this, and even Cao Cao didn't understand it."
Zhang Kun smiled coldly.
"Yuan Shu was born in the fourth generation of the San Gong family. When his ancestors and father were in power, seven out of ten officials in the world came from his family... Yuan Shao occupied Hebei and Yuan Shu occupied Huainan. You can say that in the eyes of their disciples and former officials, If the two become emperors, will these scholars also follow the rising tide and become officials?"
"good."
Although Lu Lingqi seldom cared about the important affairs of the court, she could still clearly see these obvious things.
He nodded in agreement immediately.
"Yuan Shu has proclaimed himself emperor at this time, and his disobedience is clearly revealed. Although the princes in the world are very dissatisfied with him, and they are shouting and killing each other, in my opinion, most of them are not because of his treason, but because he first proclaimed himself emperor and achieved great results. Status...
Giving orders to all directions and attracting heroes from all directions to surrender, this behavior made the princes dissatisfied. For example, Yuan Shao and others would never want to see their famous ministers and generals being won over by Yuan Shu. "
Zhang Kun continued to analyze the mentality of the princes in the world.
Since the young emperor of the Han Dynasty was kidnapped by Cao Cao, he ordered him to leave Xudu and hold the emperor hostage to order the princes.
The Han family's world has basically existed in name only but in reality.
Smart people pretend to be smart, and no one takes the Han Dynasty seriously anymore.
At most it's just a verbal shout.
Of course, it is not ruled out that there are really a few loyal Han officials who will be buried with the Han Dynasty even if their bodies are broken into pieces, but after all, such people are only a very small number.
The vast majority of people are planning for their own future.
And Chen Gong is also one of them.
"He regarded Xuzhou as a pledge of surrender." Zhang Kun said categorically: "That day, he secretly communicated with Yuan Shu and encouraged Hao Meng to rebel, just to take over Xuzhou and connect Huaisi.
In this way, with Yangzhou and Xuzhou in hand, Yuan Shu's foundation has grown stronger, his momentum has been established, and he has the image of a dragon rising. At this time, he launched another attack and captured Jiangdong, immediately occupying half of the world.
At that time, no matter who wins or loses between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu is likely to have the last laugh... because at that time, he had enough troops and food, a vast territory, and already had the capital to gather people to establish a dynasty. "
The more Lu Lingqi heard, the more chilled she became, "So, until now, Chen Gongtai still has not given up on letting his father marry his daughter. He also used divorce tactics to sow the seeds of doubt in his father's heart... He even did not hesitate to risk his own death. Promote marriage and make a last ditch effort."
The more she spoke, the angrier she became: "No wonder, today, Cao Xing died in battle and my father was injured and returned to the city. He actually mentioned sending me to Yangzhou again... He clearly said that Xiapi was about to be hopeless, unless my father could lead the troops and live outside to coordinate with the city. Only then can we withstand the siege of the city by the army..."
"Did he say that? Haha... What a tactic. Unfortunately, God's calculations are not as good as those of man. Facts have proved that Cao Cao is not without resourceful people. He has blocked all the ways to break the situation in advance. If I guess That’s right, the embankments have begun to burst and the water is released over there.”
"What?"
Lu Lingqi was shocked and felt something was wrong in her heart.
"What else could it be? This battle has lasted for nearly two months, and it's time to come to an end...
Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Chen Deng led a total of 100,000 troops, and they consumed countless amounts of food and grass every day. They were impatient and would rather resort to extermination tactics than prolong the war.
Therefore, they are bound to succeed unexpectedly. Xiapi City is located in a low-lying area. Is there any simpler way than to divert water to flood the city? "
"What a thief!"
Lu Lingqi was confused. She turned around and saw people running and shouting on all sides of the street.
First there were one or two, then ten or eight, and the whole city was in a commotion.
There were cries on all sides.
When I stood on a high place and looked over, I saw a layer of white lines slowly appearing at the west, south, and north city gates, and the sound of rushing water reached my ears from afar.
"It's true that water was diverted into the city. Cao Cao was so vicious. How could he do it?"
Fire and water are merciless. Under normal circumstances, both warring parties will have a tacit understanding and there is no need for such vicious tactics.
Because once this plan is used.
Death and injury are not as simple as a military battle or a duel between generals.
Instead, tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of people died in droves.
The first to die were the old, weak, women and children. Not even a chicken or a dog could escape with their lives.
This water has just entered the city, and the water mouth is not too big. If you want to fill the whole city and drown all the people, it is not possible yet. You need to continue to draw the water.
But if we don't take a strategy and don't destroy the army outside the city, we just watch helplessly. Sooner or later, water will flood Xiapi and fill the whole city.
When the time comes, everything will be destroyed. No matter how powerful the soldiers in the city are, they can only suffer death in the face of the flood.
Not to mention the more than 200,000 ordinary people in the city.
"What can't he do?"
Zhang Kun's eyes were sarcastic. Such methods are what a hero is these days.
On that day, Cao Cao led troops to attack Tao Qian in Xuzhou. In order to avenge his father, it is said that he massacred hundreds of thousands of people in Xuzhou City. The corpses were piled up in mountains, so that the Surabaya River was blocked and stopped flowing.
No one can tell exactly how many people died in that battle.
Some say that only more than 10,000 soldiers died, and tens of thousands of people were killed.
Some said that hundreds of thousands of people were killed, including chickens and dogs...
Anyway, Zhang Kun is not a research party, and he doesn't care much about the specific situation and the specific number of deaths.
He only knew that if Cao Cao lost his temper, he would really dare to massacre the city.
If Xiapi had supported it longer, he was sure that all the people in the city would be trapped by water.
For Boss Cao, it is not a problem how many people are killed, but how many people are killed is a problem.
"Sister Hua, prepare your army for war and follow me out of the city. Those with horses will ride, those without horses will walk, and the whole army will be dispatched."
Zhang Kun shouted loudly.
The Chen Family Manor immediately mobilized with people shouting and neighing.
After training for more than a month, these soldiers have all become fat and strong, with inexhaustible strength in their bodies. At this time, their morale is extremely high.
Under the leadership of Zhang Kun, they screamed and wanted to go into battle to kill the enemy.
The fourth sister Hua was wearing armor and followed closely behind Zhang Kun. Qiao San and Wen Liu led the infantry behind, and the group headed straight to the east gate of the city.
Lu Lingqi was extremely envious when she saw it, and quickly rode up to follow him: "I'll go too, I want to go into battle too."
Her two hundred female Xiu Gong Battalion soldiers were like a joke. They were training soldiers to guard the back house on weekdays, and Lu Bu would not care about her.
If they really dare to take these female soldiers to the battlefield, they will naturally be scolded with their heads and faces covered.
Therefore, she only had such experience of leading troops in battle on the way to escape. Since finding his father, there has been no more.
…
When they arrived at the east city gate, Lu Bu and his generals were all gathered here.
At this time, floods flooded the city.
Most of the other three gates were flooded, and the march was poor. There was no fear of a sneak attack, and there was no need to leave many troops to garrison.
Only the east gate is flat and the water is far away.
The army outside the city formed a fan shape, and the army inside the city also acted as if they were facing a powerful enemy, preparing for Cao's army to attack the city.
However, in this case, Cao Cao was not a fool. How could he lose his troops and attack the city forcefully.
All he needs to do is wait.
After waiting for a day or two, the soldiers and civilians in the city would either leave the city and die, or they would be trapped and drowned in the city.
There is absolutely no third way.
"General Lu, you fought and refused to fight, surrendered and refused to surrender. Could it be that you want the whole city to be buried with you?"
Zhang Kun rode in the lead, carrying a three-pointed two-edged sword, wearing silver armor, and riding a white horse. He slowly approached the city gate, looked at the soldiers in front of him blocking the way, and shouted loudly: "Get out of the way."
Gao Shun remained silent and waved his hand. The soldiers blocking the road moved out of the way like running water, which was actually an order and prohibition.
Zhang Kun took a deep look at Gao Shun, then rode his horse and led the troops directly through, when he saw Lu Bu.
This General Lu has long lost the majestic and domineering appearance he had more than a month ago. At this time, his beard is long and unruly, his eye sockets are sunken, his clothes and armor are quite damaged, and there are still some blood stains.
He didn't know whether it was the blood of the enemy or the blood from his own injury.
Chen Gong has not changed, he is still cleanly dressed, his eyes are gloomy, and he looks quite dignified.
Zhang Liao, like Gao Shun, Zang Ba and others, all had worried faces, and their bodies were stained with blood, water, and dust. It was obvious from a glance that they had been fighting a bloody battle and were already exhausted.
Not only was he physically tired, but most of all he was mentally weak.
No matter how hard we fight, we can't win the battle. As time goes by, who can endure this suffering forever?
"Chen Yuanzhen, it's not your turn to laugh at Yu."
Xu Shi fought bloody battles for days, and there was a hint of gold and iron in Lu Bu's voice, with deep murderous intent.
"Do you need me to mock you?"
Zhang Kun sneered.
"When we met that day, I once said that if the war situation is unfavorable, we will lead troops to fight against Cao Cao... These days, I have been training troops and waiting, but I have not heard from you."
Speaking of this, Zhang Kun was very disappointed: "I thought you would receive frequent successes and win battles one after another, but I didn't expect that you would be at such a desperate stage... You don't dare to fight, and you can't escape. The people in the city are full of people. I am also implicated by you, and I am about to die. Such a record is really a joke."
Zhang Kun had every reason to be angry.
People's military and government are integrated. They don't ask themselves to go into battle to kill the enemy. They guard themselves like thieves. They can't kill them directly. What does that mean?
'Do I like your Xiapi City? If I wanted to seize your city, I would have killed you long ago. Not for Lu Lingqi's sake, but based on the hostility you showed, it will not be your turn to point fingers in this offensive and defensive battle. '
'Besides dragging people to their deaths, what else can you do? '
Being insulted by Zhang Kun, Lu Bu was so embarrassed and angry that he couldn't express his anger, but he didn't know how to reply.
Turning to look at the generals under his command, he saw Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Zang Ba and other generals all lowering their heads slightly, as if they had not heard Zhang Kun's words.
Obviously, these people are also a little dissatisfied with themselves.
There are obviously such powerful reinforcements in the city, but they have blocked the opponent's efforts five times and three times.
Doing this is definitely not the sign of a wise master.
All generals have their own hearts and minds, and they also have their own emotions, although they will not speak for Zhang Kun at this time. However, it can still be done without refuting or scolding.
"You don't understand. Cao's army has more generals and generals, ten times more than ours. Even if you have one more army and horse, it will not help."
Lu Bu shook his head.
He had never been weak in his life, but now he was hiding his selfish motives and didn't want to expose them in person. He felt so weak for no reason that he couldn't say anything harsh in front of Zhang Kun.
Chen Gong, on the other hand, actually didn't care: "To put it lightly, what can you do if I let you come? With only 800 soldiers under his command, facing an army of 100,000 people, can he break through, or can he station troops on one side and harass him at any time? Of course it's easy to brag while standing in a safe place in the city. In my opinion, as soon as you leave the city, you will be surrounded by Cao's army of thieves, and you will be in a dilemma of life and death..."
"Chen Gongtai, you don't understand battle formations, and you don't understand the meaning of generals. Your eyes can only see the sky as big as a palm... I'm too lazy to argue with you. Just open the city gate and watch me retreat Cao Jun and destroy the dike. , break his strategy of flooding the city, and then we will see what you have to say."
At this moment, Zhang Kun didn't even care about the excitement in Chen Gong's words.
I don't care what Lu Bu thinks or thinks.
He knew that the top priority was to defeat Cao Cao.
If the channel that diverts water into the city is not destroyed...if the water continues to pour in like this, in one day, the whole city will become water ghosts.
This time, none of the generals, including Lu Bu and Chen Gong, stopped Zhang Kun from leading his army out of the city.
Maybe there is no other way, let's treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.
Maybe it's something he has in mind.
More, still can’t wait any longer…
Every time he went out of the city to charge into battle, Cao Liu's army would directly fight back with a stronger front.
These people have run out of ideas.
With the sound of a tom.
Zhang Kun led 800 people, pressed down the military formation, took the lead and marched forward with a sword in hand.
The horse's hooves rushed straight to a stone's throw, and Cao Jun's dark camp could be seen in the distance.
In the largest camp in the middle, the black-armored army was in full glory, with the word "Dou Da Cao" embroidered on the flag...
In the barracks on the left, Liu Ziqi is flying.
On the right, there are the Chen family's Guangling soldiers and horses.
…………
As soon as he saw the 100,000-strong army on the opposite side, they were so imposing and invulnerable.
Zhang Kun knew that directly attacking the formation was not a good idea.
After all, his troops are too few.
Without first destroying the opponent's morale, this battle will be impossible to fight.
"Cao Cao, you eunuch, why don't you hurry up and die."
Zhang Kun immediately slashed his sword and shouted loudly, resounding for ten miles.

Asking for a monthly ticket.
