In the Battle of Guandu in history, Cao Cao was able to defeat Yuan Shao because of Xu You's betrayal. He told Cao Cao where his old master's grain was located. Prime Minister Cao personally led his army to raid, beheading Chunyu Qiong, who was stationed in the grain camp, and burned Yuan Shao's grain. Just like the Qin army defeated the Zhao army in the Battle of Changping, he attacked and surrounded the Yuan army with no grain in the East County.

It is said that Zhao Kuo is a fool of himself, but Zhao Kuo faced Wu'an Jun Bai Qi for at least forty days, launched several breakthrough battles in succession, and even suffered a devastating blow to the Qin army. Yuan Shao was simply a fool of himself. He only held on the nine days, and then his entire army collapsed in hunger and broke north wildly. Under the pursuit of Cao's army, the entire army was defeated, fled back to Hebei with a hundred confidants, and the entire army was wiped out.

Just because he knew this history, Wang Hou also regarded Wuchao's grain garrison as his trump card. However, it was only December 199, and the first month after the Guandu Battle began, Xiahou Shang had already discovered Wuchao's grain garrison!

For a moment, Wang Hou felt his head buzzing. As a time traveler, his greatest ceremonial guard was his familiarity with this history and his control of the future. Xiahou Shang's sentence was equivalent to overturning everything he knew! It made him feel full of confusion about the future.

In the Guandu battle, is it going to win?

But in his hunched expression, Cao Cao was not surprised at all, nor at all surprised. He just looked at the map indifferently and nodded.

"Have you ever found out which general Yuan Jun was stationed in Wuchao?"

"Looking at the big flag, I should have written Chunyu first, and the Yuan army in Huaxian led by the general Chunyu Qiong of the defeated general!"

"I understand! Go down!"

That's all? Seeing Xiahou Shang turning around and leaving with his fists again, he couldn't help but get out of the squad with his fists, and couldn't help but hold his fists and bow quickly.

"Prime Minister! Since we know the location of Yuan Shao's grain storage, why don't our army concentrate our troops and raid and burn Yuan Shao's grain storage, and then attack from north to south. Just like Wu'an Jun defeated Zhao, destroying the main force of the Hebei Army?"

However, after being stunned, Cao Cao couldn't help but smile and shook his head with a helpless smile, and waved his slap at him with a smile.

"Tu please be too young, go down!"

Xun Yu, Xiahou Dun and other generals also looked like people who had experienced it. They looked at Wang Hou with 25 eyes with pride. Fortunately, Guo Jia was his good friend, so he pulled Wang Hou behind him and said in a low voice in his ear.

"If you are so concerned, it will be a mess! Yuan Shao stationed a large area of ​​grain, how can he not defend the troops? Before Hua County, the 30,000 people brought by Yan Liang were gathered in Wuchao. If you want to rob the grain, how many troops do the Prime Minister need to send out? Thirty thousand troops will be sent out together? How can the army detour to Wuchao in front of more than 70,000 Yuan Shao's war soldiers? So what should we do here in Guandu camp? Let Yuan Shao's army break through here and head straight to Xuchang?"

"The Prime Minister had expected Yuan Shao to store grain in Wuchao. After all, within a radius of hundreds of miles, it was only Wuchao Lake that could transfer grain from Hebei to store grain! But even if you know, you can't do anything!"

"Forehead……"

Listening to Guo Jia's low voice and rapid explanation in his ear, Wang Hou's eyes couldn't help but jump violently. He knew that the only way to end the Guandu war was to end the Guandu battle. This strategy was rejected. Even he didn't know how to use the Central Plains infantry at hand that was more than 30,000 yuan to defeat Yuan Shao's army, which was three times his own!

Before he knew it, sweat was coming from his forehead. Wang Hou's brain was blank and stood behind Guo Jia. The Cao army generals were buzzing and discussing strategies to defeat the enemy, but they turned a deaf ear to him. It took him a long time to hear Cao Cao's voice suddenly came back to his senses.

"Please ask!"

"oh!"

Looking around, the civil officials and military officials around him had gone down at any time, and even Guo Jia didn't know where he went. Two candles shone darkly on the central army case. Cao Cao looked at him in surprise. Seeing that he was reacting, he scolded him in anger.

"A real man walks in the world, and when Mount Tai collapses in front of him, his face remains unchanged. As the chief manager of the army's back battalion, what kind of chaotic nature is it?"

"The prince's father scolded him, and his son-in-law has lost his responsibilities!"

If you know your mistakes, you are a good comrade! Seeing that Wang Hou had admitted his mistakes with his fists, Cao Cao did not continue to scold him. Moreover, he did not collapse in front of him for a while, but asked with curiosity on his face.

"I heard Liu Ye and others say that you ran to the prisoner camp in Zhongmu County if you have nothing to do! But what other expensive ideas do you have?"

No matter what, even if the road to Wuchao was blocked, Wang Hou still had to do his best to help Cao Cao defeat Yuan Shao. Who made the grasshoppers who were always tied to the same rope now gather back from the shock just now, Wang Hou reported with a solemn face.

"Returning to the prime minister, my son-in-law surrendered some people from the Yuan army prisoners. He just used them to clean up a group of officers who ignored the imperial court's plans and intended to rebel!"

When Cao Cao heard this, he suddenly lost interest and waved his face indifferently: "You can just watch those prisoners deal with them. If there is any change, you will kill them all!"

"But captives are a trivial matter! The enemy in front of him is still Yuan Shao's fierce tiger! Today, the entire prime minister's army went to fight and defeated eight of his troops. He was beheaded around 6,000, but this old Yuan was really rich! When the prime minister took over the army in the evening, he had already completed the collection of the defeated soldiers and continued to dig up the earth fortifications overnight!"

"There is no one in Cao's camp who is more proficient in civil engineering operation than you! All the essences of the Minzhuang recruitment in Yanzhou are handed over to you! You can build as many fortifications as you can build these days! I guess after solving it, I have to compete with him, Yuan Shao, for this national strength!"

"My son-in-law received the order! However, after the Prime Minister dealt with Zhongmu prisoners of war, he also wanted to release these recruited spies to Yuan camp and let them continue to inquire about information in Yuan Shao's army. Perhaps..., some of the soldiers in our Cao camp army might be sacrificed to create the illusion of breaking back for them!"

"A group of people without trust and righteousness are unreliable! Instead of wasting time on them, it is better to plan for themselves..."

"Prime Minister!"

"Forget it, I have left the back camp and the true nature of Minzhuang to you. If you want to make trouble, just do it! But don't miss the defense of Guandu camp!"

In Wang Hou's opinion, it was difficult to deceive his own people, but he didn't expect that Cao Cao was so indifferent. In the eyes of these heroes, human life was indeed so worthless! However, with him, the Shangfang sword, Wang Hou could be relieved to make trouble, and he also bowed heavily.

"Thank you Xiangfu!"

"You go down and do your business!"

"Son-in-law obeys the order!"

Life is like a strong fork. No matter what kind of change, I can only grit my teeth and push it over! I clasped my fists and pushed it back, and threw it off my sleeves. Wang Hou was full of fighting spirit and ran out with a humming hum and rushed out.

However, Wang Houxing was in a hurry, but he didn't pay attention. After he left, he turned around and looked at the thick sheepskin map. Cao Cao's pupils suddenly had an indescribable murderous intent. He drew out the dagger with a buzzing sound and stabbed it on the map.

Wuchao!

…………

Sun Wuzi said that the military was divided into three parts: the right time, place and people. They all said that the right time is not as good as the right place, and the right place is not as good as the right people! But this most irrelevant time is enough to affect the direction of the war.

Next year is expected to be a wasteland year. It was only September when I returned from Xuzhou, and heavy snow fell in the sky. However, this year, until December, the first heavy snow came colorfully. On the night of this large-scale raid launched by Cao Cao, the feather-sized snowflakes finally arrived late, covering the two sides of Guandu camp with layers of pure white.

It is said that man will defeat nature, but in the face of nature, manpower is still exhausted. Such heavy snow has continued to fall. Cao Cao dispatched more than 20,000 people, more than 1,700 casualties, and more than 7,000 soldiers and civilians. The Yuan Shao's operation to cast earth mountain was not stopped. However, it was delayed in the colorful snow. In Yuan Shao's plan, his 110,000 troops and 300,000 troops had already broken through Cao Cao's Guandu camp. At this time, it should be spent in Xuchang. Yuan Shao was obviously not prepared for the severe cold of the falling snow. He took back the mighty formation that had been spread out. The army gathered together in the three camps to keep warm. At the same time, while harvesting nearby combustible things, he quickly mobilized wood from Hebei to keep warm.

On the Guandu camp, Wang Hou also followed Cao Cao's instructions and moved the focus of his work back to the construction of the camp and defended it.

This heavy snow throughout the Central Plains provided him with convenience.

At noon the next day, heavy snow was still overwhelming, and it was dark in the daytime like dusk. However, the strong men in the Cao army's back camp had already been tortured. Under Zang Hong's urging, they rushed to the Ji River to fetch water with a bucket. They immediately poured the water onto the official road that was covered with heavy snow. The biting cold river water splashed, and the falling snow quickly dissolved, and a thick layer of ice quickly formed under the colder temperature.

Wool wool! Wool wool!

In the falling snow, it was trembling like a person who was trembling with cold and his grandson was trembling. Relying on the smooth fur, more than a dozen big yellow dogs were screaming excitedly, and their tails were shaking in the snow. Looking at them, Wang Hou shook his head in a little embarrassed.

Nowadays, there are no Erha, Samoyed, and Alaska who are known as the three fools of sledding. If you want to do dog sledding, you don’t know if these big yellow dogs are capable of doing it!

But everything is to try! After doubting for a moment, Wang Hou ordered with a cold face: "Pick the sheath! Get on the sled!"

A sledge cart made of wood, which was commonly found in the northeastern world, with an iron bar as a track, pulling a stone of two or three stones, and was pushed onto the ice track. Several dog owners also hung some leather hoods with modified horse harnesses on the chests of these big yellow dogs. The first two and the second two are lined up in three rows and sat on the sled. The dog owner shook the reins and dragged the heavy sledge. The six big dogs struggled to pull on the ice.

But after Wang Houxin's carrying it, after over the first few steps, the big yellow dog's galloping speed became faster and faster, and its running brought inertia. The heavy sled was pulled down by them and it actually sped on the ice track at a speed far exceeding the carriage.

The ice path that was hundreds of meters long was over, and Wang Hou couldn't help but shout loudly in joy.

"I passed the order from Xuchang to Guandu Daying. All the officials and civilians in all counties will pour water on the official road. Within two days, the envoy will see an ice road leading to the Guandu Daying, and at the same time send the sled drawings back to Xudu, so that Xudu craftsmen can copy them in large quantities! Within three days, the passage from Xudu to Guandu Daying must be established for me!"

"In addition, the dogs over half a meter in Yanzhou were recruited!"

"Go quickly!"

It was really the charm of power. As Wang Hou waved the flag and shouted suddenly, Wang Congge, Wang Hu, Zang Hong and other generals and staff clasped their fists to respond, then turned over and ran out in a hurry.

After experiencing the Yanzhou Rebellion of Lu Bu and killing a large number of local gentry, Cao Cao's control over Yanzhou has obviously improved to a higher level. The most obvious withdrawal was in administrative efficiency. To be honest, building this ice road in two days was already a difficult goal for the efficiency of the Han Dynasty. However, under the orders of the messenger carrying the red flag, all counties along the way followed suit. In the early morning of the fifth day of December, the heavy snow that Wang Hou wanted was five meters wide and two or three centimeters thick, and the bare highway ice road that Xudu led to Guandu was magnificently frozen.

At the same time, the collection of dogs was quite smooth. Dogs also had a special significance to the Han Dynasty. Dog meat was once one of the main meat foods in the Han Dynasty. Just like Fan Kuai, the founding hero of the Western Han Dynasty, were both born as dog slaughter. As one of the six animals, a large number of dogs were also raised in Yanzhou. On the third day, Guandu gathered more than 3,000 yellow and black dogs, and the Xuchang even gathered more than 5,000 dogs.

War is also the most promoting industrial development. In order to cope with the Guandu War, Cao Cao ordered that more than 40 coal mines and more than 20 iron mines were dug near Xudu. The number of people engaged in the coal and iron industry increased from more than 10,000 before Wang Hou arrived to more than 70,000. On the fourth day, the newly built steel bars or coal mines that had become minerals and baskets, under Wang Hou's order, he rode these speeding dogs to pull the sled and rushed to the Guandu front line.

Facing Yuan Shao's camp, wisps of pitiful light smoke were vaguely into the air, and it was almost impossible to see. However, in this camp, the Cao army camp, the black smoke that the environmental protectionists hated later generations was like a thick demon, steeping into the sky. In the straw shed and in the tent, the frozen Cao army leaned against the earthen stove and grinded its chest with heat. Then they turned around again, facing the stove, and then roasted their backs, grinding their backs, but their chests were colder. In the cold snowy weather, they were tossing again.

The coal ash falling from the sky dyed the white snow all over the ground black and gray.

War is a contest of national strength. Although Cao Cao will definitely not be the opponent of Yuan Shao, the four prefectures of Hebei, with dense population and developed society, but the national strength is insufficient to technical rewards. With the continuous supply of raw coal, Cao's army won the war against cold. At least in the coldest days, no one in the rear army's wounded barracks were frozen to death. In this era, it was a miracle.

But seeing his subordinates busy and building a shed for burning bricks and cement under his orders, they were trembling with cold. They didn't dare to return to the fire in the snow for more than ten minutes, Wang Hou shook his head with regret.

"It would be great if there was a cotton coat at this time!"
