Chapter 386
I don't know how Lao Cao persuaded Gan Ning,
Anyway, after Lao Cao stayed in Gan Ning's camp for more than an hour, Gan Ning took over the task that Lao Cao arranged for him, although this task was extremely dangerous.
Outside the camp,

Gan Ning specifically found Zhao Xue, and explained to Zhao Xue that he accepted the task of harassing Yuan Jun's grain road.

After listening to Gan Ning's speech, Zhao Xue not only did not accept Cao Cao's task because of Gan Ning bypassing him, but also showed a faint smile on his face, and said: "Master, you should hold a three-foot sword, and you will be an invincible man!" Gong. You have outstanding abilities, and you shouldn't be nestled in my little shadow guard Ting Ziying!"

Gan Ning couldn't move his eyes from Zhao Xue's smile.

This was the second time Gan Ning saw her smile, the first time was when Gan Ning returned to Chenliu with Zhao Xue and saw Lu Yan and Guo Jia.
"Is it just outstanding? It seems that you haven't fully understood the ability of me, Gan!" Gan Ning folded his arms around his chest, stared at Zhao Xue's cold face, and continued: "Some people love Jiangshan, but There are also people who love beautiful women”

Zhao Xue knew Gan Ning's intentions, but she had never considered the matter of men and women before, and Gan Ning was so straightforward, so Zhao Xue was caught off guard and subconsciously dodged.

But when it comes to business, Zhao Xue immediately regained Qiang Yu's calmness and shrewdness, "Prime Minister Cao has assigned you an extremely important task."

After a pause, Zhao Xue finally expressed the worry in her heart, "Your original 800 old troops plus the [-] fine cavalry assigned to you by the prime minister, there are only [-] people, which is far from enough.
Otherwise, I will talk to my husband now and ask him to add some more troops to you."

Zhao Xue's words made Gan Ning happier the more he listened, and he said with joy in his heart: "I have begun to know how to care about me! It's really not in vain that I, Gan Xingba, have a deep love for you!"

Zhao Xue seemed to see through Gan Ning's mind, and couldn't help but say: "Let's talk about business, don't interrupt!"

"Okay! You continue!"

Zhao Xue went on to say: "I'll go to my husband to ask for mercy and ask him to allocate another thousand cavalry to you. It would be great if General Zhao or General Xiahou could go with you."

After Zhao Xue finished speaking, she was about to turn around and look for Lu Yan, but Gan Ning reached out and grabbed her forearm and said, "No, I have [-] elite cavalry, which is enough!"

Zhao Xue broke free from Gan Ning's 'claw' lightly, with even more worry on her face, she said: "But Yuan Shao has several hundred thousand people!"

"Although Yuan Shao has a lot of people, most of them are on the front line, and there are so many guards in the rear who are responsible for delivering food."

"But 800 people is too small after all."

Gan Ning suddenly grinned and said, "Give me a chance to perform alone.

If I can successfully complete the task this time, I can bring this great achievement to propose marriage to Lu Huqiu and Guo Jijiu. "

"Proposal, what kind of marriage?" Zhao Xue couldn't help showing a little redness on her cold face, and said, "Go as you please, but remember to ensure the safety of yourself and the soldiers."

Reminiscing about the shocking glimpse just now, Gan Ning couldn't help swallowing, and murmured, "It's killing me!"

Seeing Gan Ning being so frivolous, Zhao Xue suddenly turned around and left in embarrassment, ignoring Gan Ning.

Gan Ning, however, still kept his arms folded, with a carefree posture, quietly looking at Zhao Xue's back, and said to himself: "You have a good figure, you're very fertile!"

Seeing Zhao Xue walking away, Gan Ning was about to turn around and leave to gather his former subordinates.

After walking dozens of steps, Zhao Xue stopped suddenly, turned her back to Gan Ning and said, "The journey is difficult and dangerous, please take care of yourself all the way."

After speaking, Zhao Xue left directly.

Gan Ning smiled, and said to himself again: "What a cold-blooded bitch, this is a mission of my life!

Eh!Not to mention giving a warm hug, just a word of care and dismissed."

Besides, Yuan Shao personally led the main force to go south, heading straight for Xiahouyuan's first camp.

The disparity in the strength of the two sides was too great, and Yuan Shao personally boosted the morale of the vanguard. Xia Houyuan, Huang Zhong, and Guan Yu could not resist his edge, so they could only fight and retreat.

Yuan Shao's army broke through Xiahouyuan's four camps consecutively in one day, and it was because it was getting late that they did not continue to attack.

Xia Houyuan couldn't resist Yuan Shao's army, so he could only send a messenger overnight to report the situation he encountered to Cao Cao.

In Cao Jun's camp.

Cao Cao handed over the letter from Xia Houyuan to Lu Yan.

After Lu Yan read it, he handed it to Guo Jia, and everyone took turns to read the letter silently.

Knowing that Yuan Shao led an army of 40 troops to attack Xiahouyuan's four camps one after another, the atmosphere in the central army tent was extremely solemn.

Seeing that everyone had read the letter, Cao Cao asked aloud, "Yuan Shao's 40 yuan is approaching, how should we win?"

win?
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, silent.

Cao Cao originally had much fewer soldiers than Yuan Shao, and later divided up 3 troops to attack Hanoi.Now all the soldiers of Yuanwu and Guandu can be counted as a hundred thousand, while Yuan Shao on the opposite side has a full army of 40. If he can remain undefeated, he will be considered a high-spirited man. Want to win?Easier said than done!
Everyone was silent, even Xi Zhicai and other counselors were all frowning at the moment.

In this atmosphere, Cao Cao's heart became somewhat lacking in confidence.

At this time, he responded with a sentence, "In the face of absolute power, all schemes and tricks are in vain!"

Lu Yan's eyes drifted to everyone, and seeing that everyone was afraid to speak, he had no choice but to stand up and be the brick-thrower who threw bricks to attract jade.

"Mr. Cao, Yuan Shao is very powerful. It is not appropriate for me to divide up the troops and give him a chance to defeat each other." Lu Yan's words successfully attracted everyone's attention to himself.

Seeing that Cao Cao was also looking at him, Lu Yan continued: "Yuan Shao's army can't afford to spend a long time.

His goal is very clear, that is to break through Guandu as quickly as possible, and take Chen Liu and Xuchang directly.

Although Guandu is a plain, it is surrounded by dense water networks.Moreover, Guandukou is bordered by Guandu River to the north, Zhongmuze to the east, and Putianze to the west. It is surrounded by water on three sides.

In the middle, there is only a place about a few miles wide and about twenty miles long for Yuan Jun to attack from the front.Such terrain is more conducive to our army's use of limited troops to deploy defenses, and to offset Yuan's advantage of having a large number of troops.

Therefore, I think we should garrison all our troops at Guandu, and start a tug-of-war and protracted war with Yuan Shao at Guandu. "

Lu Yan's analysis almost described Guandu's geographical advantages to the extreme.

Liu Bei raised his head slightly to look at Lu Yan, and said in his heart, "Listening to the master's analysis of the battle situation is really enlightening!"

Lu Yan's words gradually made everyone feel at ease.

If he can still fight Yuan Shao for a long time, it means that there is still hope for his side.

Just as Lu Yan finished speaking, Guo Jia also stood up, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, perhaps many people think that we cannot resist Yuan Shao.

However, the subordinates thought that our army would win this battle! "

Cao Cao's spirit was lifted by Guo Jia's words, and he quickly asked, "Feng Xiao, what's your opinion?"

Looking at Guo Jia's upright figure, Lu Yan's heart moved slightly, and he secretly said: "Ten victories and ten defeats, is it coming?"
