During the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Cao and Lü Bu fought a fierce battle in Puyang City, and Cao Cao took advantage of his injury to make a plan to kill him, turning defeat into victory and defeating Lü Bu.
In August 194, Cao Cao led an army to attack the city of Puyang in Henan, and the army was stationed under the city. In the first battle, Lü Bu led his army into battle, brave and abnormal, the Cao army could not resist, and the retreating thirty sides closed the position.
Cao Cao consulted with everyone, taking advantage of Lü Bu's victory, he was bound to spoil the enemy, and decided to attack Puyang Xisai at night, but Lü Bu had already taken precautions, Bu Yu ambushed the troops, Cao Cao was killed and lost his armor, Cao Cao was also thanks to the desperate protection of Generals such as Lejin and Dianwei, and was able to break through, and Cao Cao was also frightened.
After Lü Bu, the god of war of the Three Kingdoms, won the victory, he made another plan to make the giant Toda clan in the city surrender Cao Cao and lead him to fight.
Cao Cao, who had been scheming all his life, calculated again, personally led his troops into the city, did not go to the county capital, only listened to the sound of cannons, ambushed soldiers, and the shouts of "capture Cao Cao alive" were like the Fanjiang River falling into the sea.
Cao Cao was defeated and took the north gate, was intercepted and killed, and could not get out, and then ran to the south gate, and was blocked and difficult to move. Helplessly, he returned to the North Gate, at this time Lü Bu Prancing Horse killed, and The sword pointed at Cao Cao and shouted: "Where is Cao Cao?" ”
Frightened, Cao Cao hurriedly pointed forward and said, "The one who rides the yellow horse is." ”
Lü Bu didn't have time to think much about it, and he chased after his horse.
Cao Cao hurriedly turned the horse's head and ran to the east gate. At this moment, the east gate tower was billowing with smoke and the fire was soaring, but fortunately, the general Dianwei arrived in a hurry, and the two rushed out of the city gate from the fire, and Cao Cao's left arm had been burned.
Cao Cao returned to the camp and raised his tent and said to the generals, "I have unfortunately fallen into the trick of the puppet today, and I must find a way to take revenge."
The generals kept secrets, falsely claiming that Cao Cao had been burned and killed, and the whole army hung up on Xiao Fa to mourn, ambushed the surrounding area of the military camp, and ordered the military camp to mourn near midnight, saying to the outside world that Cao Cao had been ordered to return to the Western Heavens. The truth of Cao Cao's injuries must not be revealed.
Lü Bu was anxious to destroy Cao, and when he heard the news, he immediately sent troops to attack. When Lü Bu led his troops to Maling Road, Cao Bing suddenly arrived, as if falling from the sky, Lü Bu was horrified, and rushed to meet the battle, desperately fighting out of the siege, and losing his troops.
When Lü Bu rushed out of the siege, he counted most of the casualties. He had no choice but to lead the remnants of the army to retreat to Yangcheng.
In the autumn, suddenly there was a locust plague in the local area, the grain was exhausted, the grain was harvested, the rice in the East County was fifty yuan per bucket, the people couldnibalized each other, and the two armies ran out of food, so they temporarily called off.
In the spring of 195, Cao Cao regained his strength and regained Yanzhou, Dingtao, Juye and other places, and then attacked Puyang again.
Lü Bu went out of the city to meet the battle, and the six generals of the Cao army Xu Chu, Dianwei, Xiahou Huan, Xiahou Yuan, Li Dian, and Le Jin fought Lü Bu together, but Lü Bu could not support it and sent his horse back to the city.
The jealousy of the Tian clan in the city was that Lü Bu was violent, and this time he sincerely surrendered to Cao Cao and closed the city gate. Lü Bu could not enter the city, and led the remnants of the army to flee in defeat.
Cao Cao's secretive deception of death not only won the victory in the ambush battle of Maling Road, but also avenged Yang. After Cao Cao's great victory over Lü Bu, Cao Cao's strength also increased greatly.
