Great Han Empire

Chapter 862 The Heroes of Troubled Times Compete in the Central Plains
Yuan Yao did want to return to Yangzhou.After he got the news of his father's death, he wanted to go back to Yangzhou several times to guard the spirit, but was dissuaded by Handan Xingyuan.This time when General Li Hong returned to Handan, he cried again and begged Li Hong to let him go south.Li Hong was worried about his safety and was very hesitant, but Yuan Yao said that he returned to Yangzhou not only to guard the spirit, but also to gather his father's old subordinates to reoccupy Jiujiang County in Yangzhou, so that the Northern Frontier Army could quickly go south to pacify Xu, Yang works.

Yuan Yao's statement moved Li Hong.After Yuan Shu's death, Yan Xiang was appointed by Yuan Shao as governor of Yangzhou, and actually took control of Jiujiang County, but Li Shu, Yuan Yin, Liu Xun and others refused to follow Yan Xiang's orders for various reasons. Staring at Jiangdong, the situation in the Jianghuai area was very chaotic.If Yuan Yao can go south to Jiujiang County in the name of guarding the spirit, it is very likely that he will be supported by Yan Xiang and a group of Yuan Shu's old subordinates, and form a powerful force in Jianghuai again. Jiangdong Sun Ce, Zhou Yu and other forces can check each other, which will help the northern army go south to counter the rebellion.

After carefully weighing the pros and cons, Li Hong agreed to Yuan Yao.At this moment, the Central Plains War is in full swing, and the land route southward to Jianghuai is very unsafe, and taking the water route is too time-consuming. If the Central Plains War ends in September, the situation in Jianghuai will definitely undergo major changes. Even if Yuan Yao arrives at Jiujiang County at that time, It is estimated that it will be difficult to achieve his wish to re-emerge in Jianghuai.So he asked Yuan Yao and Liu Ye to rush to Yangwu, and asked Zhang Yan to arrange manpower to escort them all the way to Yangzhou.

After reading Li Hong's letter, Zhang Yan listened carefully to Yuan Yao and Liu Ye's plans for the trip to the south, and felt that Yuan Yao's idea was very risky.

"We don't know the specific situation in the Jianghuai area now. If you go blindly, you may die if you are not careful." Zhang Yan said worriedly, "After your father died, his old subordinates fell apart. Leading the army northward to the Central Plains battlefield, the situation there seems to be far more complicated than you imagined. Are you thinking about it carefully?"

"No need." Yuan Yao shook his head resolutely, "Father is dead, I have to go to guard the spirit no matter what, I can't leave my father alone by the Huaishui River, otherwise I will have no face to live in this world. As for whether to live or die here, it is up to God to decide. If God must punish me and let me die, I will admit it."

Zhang Yan stared at him for a while, then nodded, "The general asked me to send someone to Yangzhou, which is difficult. Because if you want to send you to Huaishui quickly, you can only use iron cavalry, but after the iron cavalry goes south Once discovered by the rebels, they will definitely be attacked. In this way, not only will we not be able to guarantee your safety, but we will put you in danger. Therefore, I can only send you to the territory of Pei State or Liang State in Yuzhou, and then It's up to you."

Yuan Yao seemed to have thought that Zhang Yan would make excuses for a long time, and was not surprised at all, "There are more than 300 fierce soldiers who followed me to the south this time. These people are all brought out from Jiujiang. Food and grass, we will be able to return to Jiujiang safely."

"Yes, I will give you four hundred war horses, and you can bring as much food and weapons as you can." Zhang Yan agreed, "I will send someone to send you to Fengqiu immediately, and then Master Gao Lan who is stationed in Fengqiu will take you Send them to Lord Yan Rou's army. Lord Yan Rou and Gao Shun's troops are withdrawing, and you should be able to meet him near Chenliu. Lord Yan Rou will send you cavalry to send you to the territory of Peiguo in Yuzhou. You have to protect yourself for the journey.”

Yuan Yao and Liu Ye thanked and left.

Looking at the backs of the two, Zhang Yan sighed, "After the war, the rebels will retreat southward, and Jianghuai will inevitably be in turmoil. I don't know if we will see these two young people in the future."

"It's admirable that he can rush to Jianghuai to guard his filial piety regardless of his own safety." Jia Xu said, stroking his beard. "In my opinion, they can gain a foothold in Jianghuai just because of their determination to die."

In mid-August, at the urging of Yuan Shao and Liu Biao, Kuai Yue, Xu Wei and others commanded the coalition forces to attack Chen Liu.

Yan Rou and Gao Shun were then ordered to withdraw from Chenliu, and led the army northward to Donghun.After a day's rest in Donghun, they turned to Fengqiu in the northwest direction, preparing to join the main force on the Guandu battlefield.

So far, except for the troops staying in Dingtao, Changyi and Rencheng, the Northern Xinjiang Army has all gathered in the Guandu battlefield.

In mid-August, Simpi rushed to Xuchang and announced Yuan Shao's order to move the emperor to Nanyang.

Liu Biao looked surprised and happy.Ju Shou smiled wryly and was speechless. He asked helplessly, did your lord see my letter?Could he not listen at all?Xin Pi looked at Ju Shou sympathetically, and wanted to express Yuan Shao's doubts about him, but considering what his brother Xin Ping told him before leaving, he swallowed the words that came to his lips.The fate of Jushou and Tian Feng is the same, they are already doomed, and there is almost no possibility of change. At this time, no one can save them.

The next day, the emperor moved to Nanyang, and Simpi led an army to escort him. Jushou, Wang Lang and other ministers of the court and China moved with him.

At the end of August, Liu Biao rushed to the battlefield of Chenliu. At his request, Kuai Yue, Xu Wei, Cao Hong, Guan Yu, Ji Ling, Sun Fu, and Lu Su each led the army and slowly advanced to the front line of Zhongmou and Junyi.

So far, 18 coalition troops have assembled on the Guandu battlefield.

Cao Cao was so impatient that he repeatedly urged Yuan Shao and Liu Biao to lead their troops across the chasm for a decisive battle.

Yuan Shao asked the armies on the two wings to attack first, so as to contain the strength of the Northern Army and help the army on the frontal battlefield to forcibly break through the defense line of the Northern Army.Liu Biao disagreed. Apart from the Jingzhou Army, the troops under his command had troops from other prefectures and counties. No one wanted to attack first to avoid being hit head-on by the Northern Xinjiang Army.Liu Bei's troops on the Hanoi battlefield are limited, and some of them are confronting the northern army in Chaoge and Montenegro. It is impossible for him to cross the river to attack before the full-scale battle in Guandu battlefield.

Yuan Shao and Liu Biao had a disagreement on the attack strategy, which caused the coalition forces to hesitate on the west bank of the chasm.

The food supplies of the coalition forces are already in danger of being exhausted. If the decisive battle cannot be completed before mid-September, the army will have to withdraw from the battlefield, and the consequences will be disastrous.Yuan Shao was in a hurry, and Liu Biao was even more in a hurry, and now rumors about the crisis of food and grass had spread among the upper and middle ranks of the army. Although Yuan Shao and Liu Biao categorically opposed it, if time dragged on, this fatal crisis was bound to erupt.

=

When all the coalition forces attacking Chenliu arrived at the Guandu battlefield, Zhang Yan was anxiously waiting for the news of the coalition's full-scale attack. However, after two days, the coalition forces seemed to be fainted by the scorching heat, and there was no movement at all.

Zhang Yan was anxious and hurriedly invited Xu You to the mansion.

Xu You lived on alcohol every day, and his complexion was extremely bad. With the support of Sima Yi, he staggered in.In just a short distance, he was out of breath and his clothes were soaked, but his eyes were still very bright.After entering the lobby, he kept staring at Zhang Yan, waiting for Zhang Yan to speak.

Without hesitation, Zhang Yan pointed to the map and explained the current situation in detail, "I want to fight now, and I want to fight immediately, but Yuan Shao is still hesitant in such a clear advantage. When you first came, you said Now, you need to implement countermeasures for them, and let them fight us as soon as possible, so what is your strategy? What method can you use to make Yuan Shao make up his mind to cross the river for a decisive battle?"

"Where is your cavalry?" Xu You took the cattail fan from Sima Yi's hand, and asked calmly while shaking it gently.

"After Liu Bei led his army into Hanoi and captured Yanjindu and Qingshuikou, we immediately let some iron riders cross the north to protect Jizhou, and some patrolled along the Yellow River embankment day and night to deter and stop Liu Bei from crossing the river to attack our rear. In Guandu, we are ready to participate in the decisive battle." Zhang Yan paused for a moment, his face showed hesitation, and he hesitated to speak.

"Why didn't your lord finish?"

Zhang Yan looked at Jia Xu, who nodded vigorously with a dignified expression.

"Zang Ba betrayed us and attacked Jizhou together with Xuzhou's Chen Deng. Their army is currently gathering in the Gaotang area and will soon hit Ganling." Zhang Yan waved his hand angrily, and cursed two times bitterly. Sentence, "Jizhou's troops are empty, and they can't stop them at all, so Handan Xingyuan ordered that I immediately dispatch iron cavalry to help Jizhou and beat them back to Qingzhou."

"Then why do you want to fight decisively? Why don't you just retreat?" Xu You mocked, "You don't have iron cavalry, and you are at a disadvantage in terms of strength. How do you fight decisively?"

"I have already given up on Chenliu and withdrew the troops of Yan Rou and Gao Shun from the southern battlefield to Guandu. Now I have [-] infantry and [-] cavalry. Why can't I fight decisively?" Zhang Yan snorted, "Just relying on Yuan Shao , Liu Biao, Cao Cao, and Liu Bei want to defeat us? It's a joke, even if I use half of them, I can still beat them to pieces.

"Isn't your lord going to help Jizhou?"

"Ten thousand cavalry is enough." Zhang Yan sneered, "In order to deal with Zang Ba and Chen Deng, I used [-] cavalry to help them back. I really value them. I transferred [-] cavalry, and there are still [-] cavalry on the Guandu battlefield. , The iron cavalry stationed at Yanjindu and Qingshuikou can rush to rescue Guandu in time after the war begins, we have enough strength to defeat you."

Xu You lowered his head and squinted his eyes for a while, then suddenly raised his head and asked, "What are the chances of winning, my lord?"

"The decisive battle in the Central Plains is related to the survival of the country. Even if the soldiers of the Northern Xinjiang Army are killed or injured, we will never retreat and fight to the death. We have an absolute chance of winning."

Xu You sneered, "Since you have an absolute chance of winning, then what are you waiting for? Just kill the chasm."

"After killing Honggoushui, I will face one city after another defended by tens of thousands of people. Yuan Shao will hold on to the city and wait for work with ease. How long will I fight?" Zhang Yan's hand danced in the air, and suddenly slapped When I arrived at the table, Xu You, who was sitting behind the table, was taken aback, "Tell me, what method can I use to lure Yuan Shao out? My northern Xinjiang army once defeated 10,000+ Hu tribe cavalry in the endless desert. How can we be afraid of these 10,000+ infantry today? As long as we get to this open field, relying on a solid battle formation and invincible cavalry, we can let Yuan Shao and his 10,000+ rebels die without a place to die."

"Tell me?" Zhang Yan bent down and stared at Xu You, and roared, "What is your countermeasure?"

"Food and grass, your food and grass have been burned." Xu You said expressionlessly, "Can you tell me where your food and grass are stored?"

Zhang Yan straightened up suddenly, and laughed loudly, "The food and grass are gone, how can I fight this battle? Yuan Shao burned my food and grass, if I delay the fight, my army will die in the Central Plains. Master Xu, your move is too poisonous Right? You thought I'd tell you?"

"You will definitely tell me." Xu You shook the cattail fan in his hand, and said in a very sure tone, "After you think it over, let Zhongda (Sima Yi) tell me, and then send me to Honggoushui, and I will return to Cao Cao camp."

Xu You stood up while supporting the desk, and staggered away.

=

Jia Xu watched Xu You's back disappear behind a clump of trees, with a look of disdain on his face, "Organize the folks, and immediately move the grain, grass and supplies from Gushi and Wuchao to Yanjin and Suanzao."

"There are already a lot of people in the two places, and they can be moved at any time." Wei Yan stood aside and said, "If Yuan Shao started to attack two days ago, we have already moved away the food, grass and luggage from the two places."

"Let the ministries keep more food and weapons." Zhang Yan said, "Once the army starts to retreat, it will be very difficult to replenish food and weapons."

"Since the ministries are asked to save more, let's evacuate the grain and grass to Yancheng." Jia Xu suggested, "Since Liu Bei captured Yanjin Ferry and Qingshuikou, the grain and grass can only be transported by land. The quantity has dropped sharply. After the army of Yan Rou and Gao Shun arrived a few days ago, the food supply has already started to be tight. It’s all right now, don’t worry about this, we will retreat soon.”

"Do you think Xu You's plan will succeed?" Zhang Yan looked at Jia Xu and asked, "Will Yuan Shao attack our food and supply camp?"

"What is Xu You doing here? Isn't it just to find a chance to defeat us?" Jia Xu said confidently, "Don't worry, even if Yuan Shao is hesitant about this matter and worried about being tricked, Cao Cao won't, he will definitely not Kill him hesitantly, because only in a decisive battle can he escape from the Guandu battlefield, otherwise it would be no wonder that he would not die under the combined threats of Yuan Shao and Liu Biao."

"Will Xu You come back alive?" Sima Yi wrote orders while sitting behind the desk. If we go back, Cao Cao will also attack the grain and grass camp. He doesn't have to go back."

"If Xu You doesn't go back, the possibility of Cao Cao attacking the grain and grass camp is very small. Cao Cao can't make a single mistake at this time, otherwise he will be doomed and there will be no chance to stand up again." Jia Xu sat next to Sima Yi and said with a smile, "Although Xu You's Nine Clans were killed, they were killed by Yuan Shao's order, and had nothing to do with Cao Cao. Even though Xu You guessed that the reason why Yuan Shao was gracious and decisive, he killed his Nine Clans was because Cao Cao framed him, but he had no evidence. Did he see and hear Cao Cao instigating Yuan Shao to kill his whole family? No. Xu You is always unwilling to admit Yuan Shao's unfeelingness, and always thinks that Yuan Shao will not kill him because of his 30-year relationship with Yuan Shao. Therefore, intentionally or unintentionally, he always puts the responsibility of Yuan Shao on Cao Cao, in order to alleviate the pain in his heart."

"Xu You's guess is completely reasonable." Wei Yan said, "From Cao Cao's point of view, his move can not only completely pull Xu You to his side, but also cause a great impact on Luoyang. It had a major impact on Yuan Shao's strength. We can think about it. Now that Tian Feng is in prison, Jushou is driven out of Luoyang, Guo Tu is driven to Chang'an, and Xu You is forced to betray and flee, Luoyang is bound to be panicked. Dangerous. Jushou, Xu You and others were the ones who helped Yuan Shao make contributions in the past. Now that they have been wiped out one by one, it will cause immeasurable losses to Yuan Shao himself and Yuan Shao's hegemony. Cao Cao's move is vicious, even if Yuan Shao defeated us, and it is estimated that it will be difficult for him to gain a firm foothold in Yanzhou in the future."

"He doesn't have this chance anymore, he's going to lose Luoyang." Jia Xu smiled gloatingly, "Perhaps Yuan Shao did it himself. Since he was able to put Tian Feng in jail at a critical moment of the war, of course he dared to At this time, Xu You's nine clans will be killed to warn others. But that's fine, since Ju Shou, Tian Feng, Xu You, and Guo Tu are not here, and with Yuan Shao's ability, he can only be slaughtered. This time he is dead."

"If Yuan Shao can be killed this time, the world will almost be settled." Zhang Yan said with longing, "Without Yuan Shao, how can the rebels fight against us?"

At the end of August, Xu You suddenly appeared outside Cao Cao's gate.

Cao Cao was sleeping, and he was overjoyed when he heard the news. He ran out with his upper body and bare feet, "Ziyuan, how did you escape?"

Xu You looked at the black hair on Cao Cao's chest, and shook his head contemptuously, "Li Hong sent me back?"

"Li Hong sent you back? Why?"

"Hmph..." Xu You broke free from Cao Cao's hand and stared at him in disgust, "You can't understand such a simple thing? What is your situation now? You will die at any time. I told Li Hong in Handan , Cao Cao is dying, he is about to die, you write me a letter, and I will go to Guandu to persuade him to surrender, and it will be sure. So Li Hong sent me back."

Cao Cao, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu and others looked at each other and smiled.Indeed, this escape plan is simple and effective, and there is no loss for Li Hong. Why didn't he adopt it?No wonder Xu You volunteered to go to Hebei at the beginning. It turned out that he had already thought about his retreat.

"Have you been in Handan all this time?" Cao Cao was very excited, and asked anxiously while extending his hand to greet him.

"Do you have any brains?" Xu You wiped the sweat off his face and said angrily, "I'm not going to Handan, what am I doing in Guandu? Tell Li Hong that I want to spy on the Northern Xinjiang Army? If I stay Guandu, can I come back now? It is estimated that I was tortured in the prison camp and was dying."

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and a flash of anger flashed in his eyes. He was obviously very angry at Xu You's arrogance, but he held back and asked disappointedly with a smiling face, "So, you didn't get any useful news?"

"Tch..." Xu You glanced at him contemptuously, "Who am I? I will come back if there is no news? Am I old and useless in your eyes?"

Cao Cao was overjoyed, "Ziyuan, how old are you? You still have to have at least a few children to carry on your family."

I don't know whether Cao Cao's words were intentional or unintentional, but they just hit Xu You's sore spot.Xu You's face changed suddenly, he stopped suddenly, raised his hand and punched Cao Cao, "Cao Aman, what do you mean? Do you want to die?"

Cao Cao grabbed Xu You's hand and apologized again and again, "Ziyuan, Ziyuan, I didn't mean that, I misunderstood, I misunderstood."

Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, Mao Jie, Guo Jia and others hurriedly gathered around to persuade them.

=

Cao Cao excitedly ran to Zhongmu, dancing happily in front of Yuan Shao, "Brother Benchu, Ziyuan is back, Ziyuan is back."

Yuan Shao's heart sank, and his face suddenly darkened, "Is he okay? How did he come back?"

Cao Cao told the story, "Xu You visited many friends in Handan, including Ji Yong, the former Prime Minister of Ganling. Do you remember this person? He has a very good relationship with you."

"He's not dead?" Yuan Shao asked in surprise.

"He's not dead, he's alive. He's still alive. He's powerful." Cao Cao laughed. "When Gongsun Zan attacked Jizhou, he surrendered. Later, when Ganling was besieged by the northern army, he surrendered again. According to Ziyuan, he went to Jinyang after taking refuge in Li Hong, and served in the Jinyang court. This time he attacked the Central Plains, and he was ordered to go to Handan to raise food and grass for the Northern Army. Xu You saw him in Handan Afterwards, the two got together twice, and overheard the Northern Border Army's grain and grass stockpile on the Guandu battlefield."

"Where is it?" Yuan Shao raised his eyebrows, overjoyed.The northern border army burned the grain and grass battalion in Xuchang, putting the coalition forces in a difficult situation. If this time they can use their own methods to deal with their own bodies, it will not only wash away their shame, but also hit the vital points of the northern border army.The food and grass of the northern border army was already very tight, otherwise they would not have shown weakness to lure the enemy again and again, and could not wait to demand a decisive battle.If their food and grass were burned, the Northern Frontier Army would be finished and could only retreat in embarrassment.At that time, the coalition forces will pursue across the board, and they will surely beat the Northern Xinjiang Army to heavy casualties and collapse.

Cao Cao walked to the map and pointed to the Jishui River on the map, "They are all on the north bank of the Jishui River. One is Gushi, a hundred miles west of Yangwu City. The other is Wuchao, fifteen miles north of Fengqiu City. Inside and outside."

"Obviously, the grain, grass, ordnance in Gushi was provided to the Northern Xinjiang Army stationed in the northwest of Guandu Battlefield. This is mainly Yan Liang's army. The food, grass, and military equipment in Wuchao was provided to the Northern Xinjiang Army stationed in the southeast of Guandu Battlefield. , here are mainly the troops of Qu Yi, Lu Bu, and Gao Shun." Cao Cao looked up at Yuan Shao and asked excitedly, "Which one shall we fight?"

"Fight both of them." Yuan Shao thought for a while, and said very resolutely, "Burn all the grain and grass camps of the Northern Border Army, and see if they can survive in Guandu for a few days."

"Fight both?" Cao Cao hesitated, pointing to the chasm water on the map and said, "Then we will not only launch a fierce attack on the frontal battlefield, but also launch an attack on the flanks of the Guandu battlefield, which is the sewer line. To contain the strength of the Northern Xinjiang Army, draw their attention to the battlefield."

Yuan Shao nodded again and again, "Gushi is only more than 100 miles away from Yuancheng. We can send an army to cross the Honggou River from the direction of Yuancheng, and then take advantage of the night to rush along the north bank of Jishui River and quickly kill Gushi. Here It's easy to solve, but Wuchao is more troublesome..." His fingers kept clicking on Fengqiu City on the map, "If this city is to be attacked, the Northern Frontier Army will definitely station heavy troops to protect Wuchao, and sneak attacks are impossible at all. possible."

"Sneak attack is not enough to attack by force." Cao Cao said without hesitation, "You command the army to attack from the front, let brother Yidu (Kui Yue) command the army to attack from the flank of the battlefield, and let brother Meng Yu (Xu Yu) command the army to attack northward Fengqiu. There is only one purpose in attacking Fengqiu, and that is to cover my army to cross the Jishui River and storm Wuchao."

"You..." Yuan Shao was very dissatisfied when he heard Cao Cao's formation in front of him like no one else, but he was very surprised when he suddenly heard that he was going to the flank battlefield to lead the army to attack Wuchao.He looked at Cao Cao in amazement, thinking what was wrong with this kid's mind, why did he take the initiative to ask for a fight uncharacteristically?A strong attack on the Jishui River and Wuchao will definitely meet with tenacious resistance from the Northern Xinjiang Army, and the casualties must be heavy.Based on Cao Cao's current situation and what he did some time ago, it is obvious that he will not bear such a big loss.What does this kid want to do?You won't finish fighting Wuchao and take the opportunity to escape, right?
"You want to fight Wuchao yourself?"

Yuan Shao's surprised expression did not escape Cao Cao's eyes. He smiled, pointed to the old city on the map, and said something that shocked Yuan Shao, "Let my people fight in the old city too. Although the tiger and leopard riders are not here, but I still have an elite infantry in my hand. To succeed in a sneak attack, you need not only concealment, but also speed and strong soldiers. My 3000-man tiger is fully capable. If the sneak attack fails, you cut off my head .”

"This..." Yuan Shao hesitated.Of course he is willing, but now he has to put on a show and can't reveal his original intention.Regardless of whether the sneak attack was successful or not, one thing is certain, there is little chance of them returning safely.Burning the grain and grass camp of the Northern Xinjiang Army, the Northern Xinjiang Iron Cavalry will be furious and chase after them. For more than 100 miles, no matter how strong the soldiers are, a man with two legs can never run past a horse with four legs.

"Brother Benchu, don't worry, my soldiers don't even have a home, can we not work hard? We have defeated the Northern Army, we still have a chance to go home, but if we are defeated by the Northern Army, we will have nothing .” Cao Cao sneered in his heart, but his face pretended to be tragic.

"As for attacking Wuchao, I think it's better for me to fight it myself. Under Brother Meng Yu's tent, there are his own Runan Army, my Yanzhou Army, Brother Xuande's Xuzhou Army, and Ji Ling's Jiujiang Army." Army, as well as Sun Fu and Lu Su in Jiangdong, it is not good for him to let any army cross the river to attack Wuchao. His own Runan army is not large, and it is obviously not enough to attack Wuchao, and he is not good at arranging others. So let me go. Cao Hong and Yang Ping’s more than 1 people are now under the city of Junyi, and I will take them to fight, even if the entire army is wiped out, I will turn Wuchao into ashes.”

Yuan Shao smiled and shook his hand, "This is an attack deep behind the enemy lines. It is very dangerous and the loss is huge. You cannot bear it alone. I think I should send someone to fight in the old city."

Cao Cao tried his best to fight, his chest was slapped.The more impassioned Cao Cao was, the more Yuan Shao muttered.Cao Cao's performance today was too abnormal, which made Yuan Shao a little scared.He knew who Cao Cao was. We grew up together. He knew how smart this kid was. Cao Cao would never do anything that would make him lose.Cao Cao led his army to attack the two grain and grass camps. Obviously, he suffered a big loss, and he might even be wiped out. With Cao Cao's shrewdness, how could he do such an impulsive thing?Did he want to take the opportunity to escape from Guandu?If he wants to escape, there is no need to take the army to fight Gushi and Wuchao, it is too dangerous.Without an army, if he wants to make a comeback, he can only dream under the Nine Springs.

The more Yuan Shao thought about it, the more uncertain he became.He wouldn't be talking ironically, trying to provoke me, right?Looking at Cao Cao's slightly flushed face due to excitement, Yuan Shao waved his hand vigorously, "Okay, then there will be brother Lao Mengde."

Cao Cao froze for a moment, but was immediately covered up by a series of bold words and smiles.

Yuan Shao secretly sneered.

The two immediately discussed the details of the attack, and then Cao Cao left and went back to the camp to prepare.

Yuan Shao summoned Feng Ji, Xin Ping and others to draft orders, adjust the deployment of troops, and arrange the attack.

Simultaneously attacking the two grain and grass camps of the Northern Xinjiang Army, the time needs to be the same, otherwise the Northern Xinjiang Army will be alerted, and the troops will be adjusted in time to protect the other grain and grass camp. For this reason, Yuan Shao specially urgently wrote to Xu Wei, asking him to attack quickly. To deploy troops well, don't delay the time.Yuan Shao also urgently wrote to Liu Biao of Chenliu, asking him to pay close attention to the Guandu battlefield to prevent Cao Cao from suddenly leading his army south to escape.

After Yuan Shao gave a series of orders, Feng Ji suddenly asked: "Sir, do you want to take Xu You back? You can't let Xu You just follow Cao Cao like this, can you? With him by Cao Cao's side, Cao Cao is like a tiger with wings. It could cause us a lot of trouble."

Yuan Shao had thought of this problem a long time ago, he sighed in a low voice, and waved his hand at Feng Ji, "You can do this."

Feng Ji understood, bowed and left.
