Chapter 67: Difficult to Do Both [One Shift + Two Shifts]

Su Yunqing didn't wait long in Bingzhou, Zhang He's ability is still very strong, at least when he faces Liu Biao, Zhang He can beat Liu Biao out of tears.

Liu Biao and Zhang He fought for a month and then retreated, Su Yunqing looked at the corners of his mouth, to tell the truth, he would solve the battle and withdraw in a month or something, Liu Biao was also quite hard_(:3γ‚βˆ )_

Ma Teng on Zhao Yun's side is much more reliable than Liu Biao, but it seems that Zhao Yun can also handle it with ease, and there is no problem at all.

So Su Yunqing ran away with the army with peace of mind.

Of course, Su Yunqing took Mao Jue with him on the way when he left, and Mao Jue didn't realize that there seemed to be something wrong with Su Yunqing here until this time?

When Mao Jue pretended to ask casually, Su Yunqing replied very naturally: "Oh, it's too time-consuming to fight like that, I thought about it and decided to change the plan, but I didn't inform reads of this matter except for those generals on the front line;." ”

The fewer people who know, the better it is to keep it secret.

Su Yunqing blinked: "I think I will definitely be able to deceive Cao Cao this time." ”

Mao Jue nodded: "Yes, the lord didn't even know about me, who was in Bingzhou, this time, how could Cao Cao know." ”

At least Mao Jue is very clear about this, Cao Cao was indeed fooled.

In other words, in fact, Cao Cao's meeting was all his reason.

Mao Jue couldn't help but think that although he was still concerned about the war recently, because he was currently going to fight, there were too many people to be released, so in fact, his work pressure was still very great, even if Xun Chen came over and shared a lot of it very intimately, but he still unconsciously ignored it.

No, not his neglect......

Mao Jue suddenly thought that when Xun Chen came to share the work for him, he actually took away most of the official affairs related to the war, and although the ones left for him could also roughly understand some information from them, they were not comprehensive, just look at the fact that he didn't even notice the change in Su Yunqing's plan.

Is this a coincidence or is there something else?

Mao Jue couldn't help but look at Su Yunqing, but Su Yunqing was nothing abnormal, just like in the past so many years.

But Mao Jue couldn't help but have doubts in his heart, was he discovered or not? If so, when?

Although thinking about such a question, it was very strange, Mao Jue felt that when he thought that he was very likely to have been exposed, there was no tension and fear in his heart, and he was even relieved, and there was a feeling that the big stone that had been pressing on his heart for many years was suddenly moved away.

But whether it was exposed or not, Mao Jue didn't know.

At least judging from Su Yunqing's current appearance, Mao Jue couldn't see anything abnormal.

Of course, as for Cao Cao's side, Mao Jue felt that he couldn't control it.

Mao Jue was willing to send news to Cao Cao again to tell him that Cao Cao had been fooled, but now that he was taken by Su Yunqing, how could he spread the news in the midst of hundreds of thousands of troops?

On the one hand, Mao Jue felt that he had failed Cao Cao and failed to complete the task, and on the other hand, he breathed a sigh of relief, at least he didn't have to betray Su Yunqing anymore.

To say that every time he sent news to Cao Cao, Mao Jue was always indifferent on his face but very struggling and painful in his heart, and now he can't pass it on, and it doesn't seem to be much better, he doesn't have to betray Su Yunqing, but he has failed Cao Cao.

You see, that's what things are in the world, and you can never have it both ways.

Mao Jue couldn't help but think that if he could have a chance to do it again, whether it was to assist Cao Cao or Su Yunqing, he just wanted to start from the beginning, and he was not willing to do such a thing again.

Su Yunqing is a very good lord, and so is Cao Cao, at least Cao Cao has bothered about him over the years, and even his safety is personally asked, for fear that once Mao Jue is exposed, he will not be able to retreat.

So even at this point, Mao Jue has no complaints about Cao Cao, Cao Cao just did what he had to do, and even spent enough time for him.

Now that Mao Jue is following Su Yunqing's army, he can't go, and he can't spread the news, he simply feels at ease, Mao Jue feels that if he is allowed to be Su Yunqing's subordinate wholeheartedly, it will probably be this period of time, since he arrived in the state, so many years have passed, only this last period of time He can let go of his task, Mao Jue feels that this is not to compensate Su Yunqing, but what he wants, this is a gift to him.

When Su Yunqing's army walked to the white horse, Cao Cao finally received the news, and he finally found that there were reinforcements behind Lu Bu, and there were quite a few of them.

Then Cao Cao was confused.

Su Yunqing came in person.

Cao Cao: "......"

Said that it was okay and would not be recruited in person! I said that I wouldn't come! What are you doing here? (╯‡░′)╯︡┻━┻

Of course, this is not what makes Cao Cao the most confused, what makes Cao Cao the most confused is that where did so many people under Su Yunqing come from?

It is said that the troops of Nanyang and Si Li have not been transferred in large quantities, and Lu Bu has more than 100,000 troops here, and Su Yunqing has now brought more than 100,000, where did this person come from?

Cao Cao said he couldn't figure it out at all!

But Guo Jia, who saw the news, smiled: "Lord, it seems that we have all been fooled." ”

He couldn't help but laugh at himself, it seemed that he also trusted Mao Jue too much, and subconsciously used Mao Jue's intelligence as the basis for thinking, so that he only found out that something was wrong now, and once the previous foundation was overthrown, Guo Jia's level naturally quickly saw a lot of doubts.

Cao Cao was stunned: "Why did Feng Xiao say this?" ”

Guo Jia explained: "The lord also knows, Lu Bu has more than 100,000, Su Yunqing has more than 100,000, plus Nanyang Sili, and the border of Youzhou, with Su Yunqing's troops, this must be insufficient, and it is even completely impossible to have so many people, since there will not be so many people, there must be one or even several sides that are bluffing, so which side does the lord think it will be?" ”

Liu Biao fought on Nanyang's side, and Ma Teng fought on Sili's side, all of them had sufficient troops, and there were generals of Zhang He and Zhao Yun guarding them, as for the border...... Su Yunqing is crazy to draw troops from the border.

Over the years, Su Yunqing has guarded the border tightly, and the border aliens have not been able to reap the benefits for many years, so the interest in going south is not so great, at least large-scale southward going is rare, but Su Yunqing has never relaxed the slightest because of this, on the contrary, she still keeps strengthening the fortifications at the border, and has to invest a lot of money and manpower in this every year, to say that Su Yunqing's approach is quite stupid, but Su Yunqing is not willing to gamble that it is impossible to accept that there is a case, what if the alien race brain is pumped over and her border is empty?

Su Yunqing can accept Cao Cao's entry into Bingzhou, and even if Liu Biao enters her, she can admit it, but those alien races can't, this is not a matter of nature at all.

Therefore, Guo Jia judged that with Su Yunqing's personality, no matter which side she was empty this time, it was impossible for her to make the border empty.

Since Nanyang's troops are not weak, Sili is not weak, and the border is even more false, it is very clear where the real strength is weak.

The real shortage of troops was none other than Lu Bu, who was fighting against Cao Cao.

Thinking of this, even Guo Jia couldn't help but admire Su Yunqing's courage, he could have the courage, determination and courage to do this kind of thing...... What a man!

To tell the truth, Guo Jia thinks that the current Su Yunqing probably doesn't look like a woman except for a face_(:3γ‚βˆ )_

This kind of thing not to mention Su Yunqing, even if he has always been very bold and dares to think and do, he thinks that he does not dare to make this kind of arrangement lightly.

You must know that Cao Cao's main elite are all invested here, and it can be said that Guandu is Cao Cao's strongest force along the way, and Su Yunqing actually has the courage to let Lu Bu bluff against Cao Cao at such a time.

Guo Jia couldn't help but think of the half month when Lu Bu and Cao Cao fought at the beginning, Lu Bu was really full of confidence, and he didn't see any signs of insufficient troops at all, as if he really had more than 100,000 or 200,000 troops left for him to squander.

In addition, the combat effectiveness of the army led by Lu Bu is indeed very strong, so everyone believes that Su Yunqing's main force is the way to this way, and Su Yunqing does have so many troops to smash here.

But in fact, there is no such thing at all, Lu Bu is all a liar.

Guo Jia couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I didn't find out about this kind of thing until now." ”

Although Lu Bu fought bravely, their flaws were also obvious, and they were even clearly placed in front of Guo Jia's eyes, but Guo Jia didn't think about it at all.

Seeing Cao Cao coming over, Guo Jia explained: "Does the lord remember that after the initial fierce battle, Zhang Liao asked Lu Bu to make a truce with us? ”

At first, everyone, including Guo Jia, felt that this was because Zhang Liao saw Cao Cao's logistics were tight and wanted to fight a war of attrition with Cao Cao, and when Cao Cao was almost consumed, he could take Cao Cao without much effort.

But now it seems that Zhang Liao doesn't want to fight, he can't fight at all.

Before Lu Bu made a strong appearance of sufficient troops to fight with Cao Cao, obviously he also had a lot of losses, most of the month, Cao Cao believed that Lu Bu was full of troops, but Lu Bu himself couldn't hold on and was about to be exposed, so at this time, he pushed the boat down the river to a truce, fighting for consumption, which seemed reasonable, but was actually covering up his shortcomings.

"If we really just want to consume our logistics, then we won't be inactive for so long."

Since the truce, the two families have basically stopped fighting, even if they occasionally do it, it is a small fight, and the largest scale is only a few thousand people, it used to seem to be a test of them, but now it seems to be delaying time.

After all, if it is a protracted war, Cao Cao's logistics can still hold up after waiting for so long, plus Liu Bei is coming later, even if Cao Cao is not rich here, but it is completely guaranteed that no one will die of hunger.

At this time, even if Lu Bu didn't understand, Zhang Liao should also understand that relying on logistics would not be able to drag down Cao Cao, if Lu Bu's troops were sufficient, it would be time to start a war at this time, but Lu Bu didn't, he chose to continue the stalemate.

This flaw is too obvious, it can be said that anyone with a little brain should be able to see it, but this happened like that, and everyone in Cao Ying also saw it, but they just didn't think about it!

This is completely my own pit of my own blood.

At this time, Guo Jia felt that he had been able to roughly guess Su Yunqing's plan.

From Su Yunqing's point of view, if she wants to attack Cao Cao, a one-on-one fight will definitely not be cowardly, Su Yunqing is fully capable of beating Cao Cao out with a bloody face, but is Cao Cao a fool?

Apparently Cao Cao is not.

Therefore, Cao Cao could never sit and wait for death, he must find a way to survive.

But Cao Cao's own strength is not enough to fight against Su Yunqing, so of course, Cao Cao will definitely look for foreign aid.

With that in mind, it's all simple.

There are only a few people in this world who have the ability to help Cao Cao, and at that time, it seemed that the one who could really send troops was Liu Biao Ma Teng, Liu Biao had an enmity with Su Yunqing, Ma Teng was restless, as for Zhang Lu in Hanzhong or something...... β†’_β†’ Cao Cao sent someone to persuade him this time, but Zhang Lu didn't come.

Of course, no matter whether Zhang Lu comes or not, one thing Su Yunqing must be sure of is that once she goes all out to attack Cao Cao, then there will inevitably be problems in her rear, so she simply chose to bluff with Cao Cao first, and after the rear starts, solve the problems in the rear first, and then go all out to deal with Cao Cao.

Listening to Guo Jia's explanation, Cao Cao couldn't help but smile bitterly: "This woman is really ......."

How to put it, this is really not something that ordinary people can do.

Even this time, Su Yunqing actually dared to throw Lu Bu out like this, everyone knows what Lu Bu means, Cao Cao couldn't help but think that it was not just the relationship between Mao Jue's intelligence, in fact, Lu Bu was here, and Su Yunqing himself did not appear, so it was normal to think of Lu Bu as the main force.

Not only because of Lu Bu's identity and achievements, but also because after so many years, when they mention Lu Bu, they will subconsciously put some labels on Lu Bu...... This made them very light, and even felt that the strength of the army brought by Lu Bu was also very sufficient.

It can be said that it is Lu Bu's subconscious personal impression and Mao Jue's intelligence, which makes everyone think that Lu Bu is the main force and has strong troops.

Of course, when it comes to this issue, Cao Cao has to discuss another point here.

Su Yunqing's actions did not match the plan that Mao Jue sent back to them, so what was the reason for this?

Pure accident? Is Mao Jue's information wrong? Still is...... Mao Jue has betrayed?

…… It's not impossible for Mao Jue to betray.

Cheng Yu had cooperated with Su Yunqing for a period of time when he was crusading against Dong Zhuo, and after he went back, he told Cao Cao that if he hadn't followed Cao Cao a long time ago, if Cao Cao hadn't really been the master, he might have to be tempted to switch to Su Yunqing.

Look, what a terrible person.

Back then, Su Yunqing was able to make Cheng Yu say such things when he was still immature, so what about now? Not to mention that Mao Jue and Su Yunqing get along for a day or two? Is he really not going to waver, even betrayal?

No one knows.

In the past, Cao Cao may not have such doubts, but now that this matter is in front of him, Cao Cao can't help but think about it.

And this kind of question, even Guo Jia can't give a definite answer.

Guo Jia is good at reading people's hearts, he can naturally tell how upright and noble Mao Jue is, but he also knows Su Yunqing's personality, and he also thought about dying for Yuan Shao when he was frustrated, if he couldn't die, he would go home to farm and never go out again, what now? Now he is loyal to Su Yunqing, and he is simply a fanatical supporter of Su Yunqing.

Guo Jia also felt that Sun Ce was a person who achieved great things, Sun Jian was not so peaceful under Yuan Shu back then, Sun Ce was very similar to Sun Jian, he must not be able to settle down, but now?

It is said that Taishi is an idiot with Han Sun Ce, but Sun Ce is also an idiot at Han Su Yunqing from a certain Cheng dù! Who dares to say that Su Yunqing is not good, Sun Ce is really about to roll up his sleeves and do it with someone, where is Su Yunqing bad? reads;! My father-in-law is good everywhere! It couldn't be better! Those who dare to say that they are not good are underwhelmed!

Therefore, as to whether Su Yunqing can pull Mao Jue over, everyone is always a little uncertain in their hearts.

In the past, Mao Jue came back with news, and there was never any problem, so everyone didn't think much about it, but now it's hard to say, Cao Cao was obviously cheated by Mao Jue's intelligence.

Of course, no matter what happens to this pit, in fact, Cao Cao doesn't have time to think about this for the time being, Su Yunqing has already walked to Baima, so it will be a matter of these two days to get to Guandu.

At this time, the first question Cao Cao had to consider was what to do.

It stands to reason that Cao Cao and Liu Bei together are not Su Yunqing's opponents, so they naturally retreated quickly at this time.

Can Cao Cao withdraw? Where can he retreat?

In fact, if he could, of course Cao Cao was willing to withdraw, after all, it would be a fool to be sent to death if he couldn't do it, but Cao Cao was not.

But the problem Cao Cao is facing now is that he has no way to retreat.

This is not a question of withdrawing from Guandu, but a question of whether to go to Yanzhou.

Just like the merger of states relative to Su Yunqing, Cao Cao said that he was the Taishou of Wei County at the earliest, but the capital he really made his fortune was Yanzhou, and Cao Cao would never allow Yanzhou to lose.

Besides, once Guandu can't hold it, Su Yunqing's army can basically drive straight in, and it is inevitable that Yanzhou can't keep it.

And what about Xuzhou?

Xuzhou is flat, is a good battlefield for cavalry galloping, to compete with cavalry, who in the world dares to compare with the state?

Oh, Liangzhou may be able to fight, but the current Cao Cao definitely can't.

At least he can't fight the cavalry, he will definitely not be able to fight Lu Bu's hanging b!

Why hasn't anyone given him such a big title yet! (╯‡░′)╯︡┻━┻

So after thinking about it in the end, Cao Cao decided not to withdraw, and there may still be a chance to fight with Su Yunqing in the last battle, but if he doesn't fight, everything will be over as soon as he retreats.

It doesn't matter if Su Yunqing's strength is stronger than him, once he retreats, his morale will definitely be lost.

The strength can't be compared, the strength can't be compared, the morale still can't be compared, how can this battle be fought?

Cao Cao knew very well that as long as he stepped back at this time, then what this meant would be very clear, and if he met Su Yunqing again in the future, his soldiers couldn't help but have the idea that they were weaker than the other party and not the opponent of the other party.

And this must not be allowed.

If you are timid before you hit your heart, then you don't have to fight.

So Cao Cao had only one choice left, to defend Guandu and not retreat.

Thinking so, Cao Cao called his subordinates again and immediately wrote a letter to send back to Xuzhou.

Since life and death have already been decided, then naturally we have to use all our strength, Cao Ren's side, don't wave, no matter how many soldiers Cao Ren has in his hands, it is the most important thing to bring all of them to support, there is one person who is a person reads;.

At least one more person has a little more confidence.

Of course, compared to Su Yunqing, it would take time for Cao Ren to come over, and Cao Cao would have to delay for a few more days.

Regarding delaying time, this Cao Cao is still very good at it.

Lu Bu dragged them before, but this time they had to be replaced.

Of course, Cao Cao also has a way, at least he and Su Yunqing are old friends reunited, it's not too much for everyone to chat together, right?

Cao Cao didn't mind saying a few soft words when necessary, and Cao Cao also knew that as long as he said it, Su Yunqing would definitely listen.

In this case, as long as Cao Ren didn't crawl, he would definitely be able to catch up.

The facts were indeed as Cao Cao expected, he wrote to Su Yunqing and proposed not to fight for the time being, and everyone met together to exchange feelings or something, and Su Yunqing quickly replied and agreed.

Cao Cao thought about it and brought Liu Bei with him, it seems normal to bring Liu Bei when it comes to it, if Cao Cao and Su Yunqing were good friends back then, then Liu Bei can at least be familiar.

Liu Bei went when the Yellow Turban Rebellion was pacified, and Liu Bei also went when he crusaded against Dong Zhuo, and everyone still has a lot of memories to talk about.

Liu Bei didn't refuse Cao Cao's offer, he knew that it would be risky to continue to stay here, but since he had already come, there was no reason for him to turn around and run away when Cao Cao and Su Yunqing were about to start a war and needed help.

Liu Bei had to at least accompany Cao Cao to play one or two games.

So according to the agreement between the two parties, on the second day after Su Yunqing arrived in Guandu, everyone met in front of the two armies, and neither side brought many people, and they were limited to bringing 10,000 each.

That being said, when Cao Cao and Liu Bei's 10,000-strong army left the camp, the rest of the troops were also ready to provide support as soon as something changed.

Su Yunqing's side is also in a similar situation, and even Cao Cao's side has to fight because he has reached a desperate situation, so no one opposes it, Su Yunqing has many people who oppose it here.

Xun Chen has been nagging Su Yunqing since Su Yunqing agreed, and he felt that Su Yunqing's approach was too dangerous.

The two armies were one shot away, and Su Yunqing met Cao Cao in the middle.

But Cao Cao came with Liu Bei, but Su Yunqing went to the appointment alone, which is obviously more dangerous for Su Yunqing.

What if? In case Cao Cao and Liu Bei have a bit of bad intentions, they won't have time to save them when the time comes, plus both sides only bring 10,000 horses, at least they won't have much advantage until the backup rushes over.

Thinking about it like this, Su Yunqing is even more dangerous!

However, regarding Xun Chen's worries, Su Yunqing said: "Do you really think it is more dangerous for me to meet alone?" In fact, if you really want to fight, I don't mind Cao Cao bringing more guards than me. ”

Xun Chen: "......_(:3γ‚βˆ )_"

Oh yes, he accidentally forgot Su Yunqing's fierce force value, which was the only person in Bingzhou who could fight with Lu Bu.

Therefore, instead of worrying about Su Yunqing, he should actually be more worried about whether Su Yunqing will bring back Cao Cao with one hand and Liu Bei with the other, right?
