My father is Yuan Shu?But I want to be a Cao thief

Chapter 155 Poison Plan 【Subscription】

Jian'an three years,

Autumn July, early.

The first battle between Cao and Chu ended, because Cao Cao was suspicious and divided his troops to defend Shouchun, so there was no absolute advantage in the front, and he was finally defeated.

In this battle, the Chu army killed nearly ten thousand prisoners.
And the Chu army itself lost more than half.

The left and right wings were alright, Chu Feng's middle army, more than [-] people almost all died in battle, the tiger guards only had more than [-] people left, and the iron cavalry that they had built with great difficulty were less than a hundred cavalry.

Add one piece to those who are alive, and it will be three hundred.

This battle was tragic for both sides.

If Cao Cao hadn't retreated in the end, he wouldn't have been hunted down by his tail. I'm afraid Cao Jun would have won the battle completely.

----

At this moment, in Cao Ying.

Cao Cao's face was as frosty, with gloomy brows.

Inside the tent, all the generals lowered their heads, while the civil servants were thinking in their hearts.

After a long time, Man Chong returned to the tent and said: "My lord, most of the soldiers and horses from all ministries have returned."

"How about the battle damage!" Cao Cao asked in a deep voice.

"Returning to the lord, the damage to each department exceeded tens of thousands, and the three generals Cao Xiu, Shi Huan, and Cai Yang died in battle," Man Chong said with his head bowed in shame.

Although Cao Cao had been mentally prepared, his body still trembled, his pupils were filled with anger. This battle alone cost him tens of thousands of elites.

And there are three generals including Cao Xiu, plus the previous Cao Chun, wouldn't the four generals have been lost?Cao Hong also broke his arm,

Thinking of this, Cao Cao only felt a throbbing pain in his head, and shouted: "It hurts, it hurts me too! Chu thief Lizi, I am at odds with you!"

As he spoke, he fell directly on the seat in pain, with cold sweat streaming down his face.

"My lord," all the civil and military officials shouted with concern.

"Quick, send the military doctor!" Guo Jia turned around and shouted.

After a long time, Cao Cao got better.
Thinking that he has been on the battlefield for more than ten years, but now he is defeated by Chu Feng, hate it!
Now that the matter has come to this point, it is useless to say more.

"Everyone, do you have a good strategy to help me defeat the enemy!" Cao Cao asked sincerely, looking around the crowd, his voice lost a little confidence in the past.

"My lord, victory or defeat is a common matter for military strategists. Although our army was defeated in this battle, most of Chu Feng's subordinates also suffered losses. Since this is the case, it is better to continue mobilizing troops to fight each other. They will surely perish."

Cao Hong strode out,

I saw that his forearm was cut off, he didn't participate in this battle, and he was eager to fight at this moment.

"My lord, what General Cao Hong said is very true. If he continues to fight Chu Feng to the death, he will definitely lose." Zhu Ling also said sonorously.

"The end will fight!"

Immediately, all the generals clasped their fists together and asked for a fight.

It's just that these people didn't necessarily rush up to fight Chu Feng when Chu Feng charged into the formation.

Cao Cao didn't find a suitable answer, so he glanced over, looked at Guo Jia and said, "Feng Xiao, what do you think?"

"My lord, although Chu Feng suffered a lot in this battle, the morale of his three armies is high. On the other hand, our army's morale is low. This is not a good thing."

"What's more, Shouchun is Chu Feng's foundation, and it will inevitably be contested. If it lasts for a long time, it will be disadvantageous to our army." Guo Jia frowned and said in a deep voice.

Cao Cao frowned,

Xun You then said, "My lord, Chu Feng's troops have suffered a lot in this battle. Although our army still has more than [-] troops including Sun Ce's army, we have to defend Shouchun and attack Chu Feng, so we are stretched to the limit."

"The stalemate is not good for our army."

"What do you think?" Cao Cao asked tentatively.

"Before Chu Feng has a firm foothold, seek Xuzhou Lu Bu, occupy the Central Plains entirely, and recharge your energy to wait for Yuan Shao in Jizhou." Xun You said in a deep voice.

"Details!" Cao Cao frowned.

"Let Sun Ce lead his troops to garrison Danyang, take root in Chu Feng's hinterland, and let the defeated army station in the north of the Huaihe River to check and balance Chu Feng's invasion,"

"My lord personally led the rest of the troops to pretend to retreat, but in fact they went straight to Xuzhou with light troops and captured Lv Bu in one fell swoop. Otherwise, Chu Feng would not stand by and watch Lv Bu perish."

Xun You said in a deep voice, the planning was thorough.

Xun You saw it very clearly, as long as Chu Feng wanted to defend, it was unrealistic for Cao Cao to rely on more than 20,000 people to win Chu Feng.

Instead of this, it is better to do the opposite.

Cao Cao frowned, feeling a little moved in his heart, but he was still unwilling to let Chu Feng go?This time I couldn't kill him,

It is tantamount to breeding tigers!
Seeing that Cao Cao was entangled, Guo Jia smiled lightly and said, "Master, you are more entangled with Chu Feng. Jia thought that it would be better to let Sun Ce lead his troops to station in Ruyin."

"Let Liu Bei succeed Sun Ce to station in Danyang!"

"With these two people checking and balancing, Chu Feng can't make waves in a short time."

"Liu Bei is stationed in Danyang? Danyang is the land of the Sun family. If I let Liu Bei station there, there will be a lot of complaints. What's more, didn't you say that Liu Bei can't let him go?"

Cao Cao frowned puzzled.

"There are many people in Sun Ce's army from Danyang, and most of their close relatives are in Wu County. If Sun Ce returns to Danyang, these people who are familiar with the landscape will all be scattered? How can we talk about stationing?"

"At this moment, he can control these soldiers to use military rations, so it would be better for him to stay in Ruyin. My lord only needs to add an official rank to him and list him as a Xuzhou shepherd."

"As for Liu Bei, this person is in the same situation as Chu Feng, even if he really let the tiger go back to the mountain, then this fierce tiger is still biting Chu Feng, isn't it?"

Guo Jia stroked a small tuft of beard and explained.

Hearing this, Cao Cao planned in his heart, let Sun Ce station in Ruyin, Liu Bei stationed in Danyang, one knife hangs Shouchun, and the other hangs in the hinterland, which is ruthless enough.

Unless Chu Feng pulls out these two places, he will be restrained and balanced by them.

"Is this the end of this battle?"

"My lord, if we win this battle, it might be a good idea to gobble up Yangzhou, but since we've lost this battle, it's pointless to continue the stalemate!"

"What's more, the lord is just stalemate with him in another way. Wouldn't it be better to take this opportunity to capture Xuzhou?" Xun You explained with a wave of his hand.

Cao Cao finally nodded this time.

Although he was unwilling, what Guo Jia and Xun You said was very true. If the stalemate continues, it will only lose the opportunity to fight. Instead of doing this, it is better to be resolute.

"Here's an order to present Liu Bei as the shepherd of Yangzhou, and three thousand Yi soldiers will be stationed in Danyang, and together with Wu Jing, they will defend Danyang against Chu Feng."

"Biaosun Ce is the Xuzhou herdsman, and he led his troops to garrison Ruyin to check and balance Shouchun Chufeng. In addition, let the word out, prepare to withdraw the army." Cao Cao said immediately.

"Your lord is wise, but before you leave, you might as well give Chu Feng another great gift!" Guo Jia said with a light smile as the corners of his mouth curled up.

Xun You narrowed his eyes, sighed and continued, "Feng Xiao is talking about this batch of autumn grain?"

"Exactly, the autumn grain is about to ripen, our army can harvest the wheat to replenish the army, and we can also send people to destroy all the wheat fields that cannot be taken away from the paddy fields,"

"Isn't he, Chu Feng, kind and charitable? Then let him support these people, drag down his finances, and let him have no military needs to disturb my rear."

Guo Jia squinted his pupils and said coldly.

Obviously, Guo Jia wanted to increase Chu Feng's burden while Cao Jun had the initiative. Of course, this was not the first time for Cao Jun.

In Xuzhou before, there were looting and massacres,

Hearing this, Cao Cao laughed loudly: "Haha, good, this is very suitable for me. I will order all the ministries to destroy all the wheat fields around Shouchun City first."

"When the wheat fields are ripe on the way home, they will be harvested again to replenish the army. It happens that Yuzhou has limited grain and grass, so use this batch of army grain to attack Xuzhou."
