"Yuan Yao's army retreated to the front line of the Lujiang River with An Fengjin?" Cao Cao listened to the news in surprise

"Yes, my lord, I saw with our own eyes that Yuan Yao's army got on the ferry that had been arranged in Anfengjin early and went to the other side!"

Lao Cao is the same person as Yuan Yao, cautious and suspicious. So not only did they send out one scout, but they also sent eight scouts.

But all of these individuals brought the same news, that is, Yuan Yao seemed to have retreated completely from Western Yuzhou.

"This must be a conspiracy, a conspiracy!" Cao Cao began to persecute paranoia again, no wonder our Cao Lao will think so, just Yuan Yao's goods, it's not a good shit if he pouts his butt, and he has to take off his pants until he is in his own field.

How could such a big bargain be given up.

Forget about a Xia Cai City, after all, Xia Cai City has been broken, and it can't be repaired for a while, just like chicken ribs, it's a pity to abandon it if it's tasteless.

But in the east of Yuzhou, there are still two cities, one in Ruyin City and one in Yingshang City.

These two fortified cities have been prosperous because of Yingshui, and even after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, they have slowly recovered their vitality.

There are tens of thousands of people in the city, but with these two cities, Yuan Yaoxiaoer actually gave up and handed over the two cities.

Grande has become a philanthropist, who will believe it.

"No, no, the order goes down, all soldiers and horses are not allowed to enter the city!" Boss Cao was uneasy in his heart, and he actually gave such an order.

"Ahhhh The other generals of Cao Cao's army were also dumbfounded, and he was ready to set up a tent to spend the night in the wilderness. All of them wept and mourned.

"Hey!" It was Guo Jia on the side who opened his mouth to stop Cao Cao.

"Lord, although this Yuan Yao child is cunning, it also depends on the scene!" Guo Jia said to Cao Cao, "If he Yuan Yao's army does not retreat and the city gate is not opened, we will have to think about it, whether this child has any conspiracy, but now the city gate has been opened, and his soldiers and horses have also learned from the mouths of the generals that they went to Lujiang from Anfengjin to be stationed in the Lujiang generation, so it can be said that the east of Yuzhou has completely fallen into our hands!" If you don't take it at this moment, wouldn't it be a waste of Yuan Yao'er's good intentions. Guo Jia said to Cao Cao.

"But!" Cao Cao was still uneasy.

Guo Jia waved his hand, "Lord, there is fraud in this city, it is nothing more than two things, one is ambush, and the other is fire and water!" ”

Guo Jia is worthy of being a ghost, and he can think of such a method just by relying on a city.

"This first ambush only needs the lord, each of the two cities will send a thousand-person team, it's still early, hurry up to be able to catch up before nightfall, and find out if there are ambushes!"

"This is the second water and fire, if you want to ignite a fire in the city, you must pave the forage, and you can know when you enter the city, this water, Ruyin City and Yingshang City are both in the upper reaches of Yingshui, and it is not the rainy season at this time, he Yuan Yao can't store water, and he can't use water to attack!" Guo Jia continued.

"This is the most important, this Yuan Yao child is like that Liu Xuande, the most important reputation, these two cities are wide open, the people have not moved a single bit, among the two places, there are tens of thousands of people, if he Yuan Yao dares to attack with water and fire, his reputation will be over!" Guo Jia said with a smile.

Yuan Yao is a pit father, and his cheap dad Yuan Shu is also a pit son's thing.

Yuan Shu was called the emperor, and the conquest was tyrannical, so that Huainan had already lost the hearts of the people, and Yuan Yao must reinvigorate himself in order to dissipate the influence of his previous father, and play the banner of virtue for the people.

So Yuan Yao's reputation is right.

"Yes!" Cao Cao nodded, but he was still puzzled, "Then why did this Yuan Yao Xiaoer withdraw from the army?" ”

"Lord, I think it's Yuan Yao'er who is afraid of my Yanzhou army!" Over there, Li Dian opened his mouth and said, he has been fighting too aggrieved in the past few days, the main general is not there, and he was beaten by the trapped camp again, and his subordinates were killed and injured countless times. Naturally, I don't have a good impression of people like Yuan Yao who use tricks.

"Hmph, if he Yuan Yao'er is afraid, he won't fight with me on the bank of Yingshui and before going down to Cai City!" Cao Cao shook his head, the current Yuan Yao army is like a tiger and a snake's tail, the whole army is attacking, it looks like a decisive battle, but the battle has not yet been decided, although it has taken advantage, but it is not harmful.

"Lord, that Yuan Yao Xiao'er is indeed afraid!" Guo Jia gave a different answer?

"Fengxiao, are you saying that Yuan Yao'er is afraid of me?" Cao Cao didn't believe that this Fengxiao had also seen Yuan Yao's face, how could he say such a thing.

Guo Jia shook his head and said, "What he Yuan Yao Xiao'er is afraid of is not us, what he is afraid of is that Yuan Shao, he is afraid that Yuan Shao is unwilling to send troops, sitting on the mountain to watch the tiger fight, afraid that Yuan Shao will not give him food and grass materials, he made a wedding dress for Yuan Shao in vain!" ”

Guo Jia walked to the front of the case and opened the marching formation map, "Ruyin, Xia Cai, Yingshang!" Guo Jia opened the map and pointed to these three places, "Although these three cities are prosperous, they are not the important towns of the Huainan Army, and he Yuan Yao can afford to lose them." ”

Xia Cai Ruyin and Yingshang are both newly acquired by Yuan Yao, and Xia Cai is not so much Huainan as Xuzhou's territory, but it is more dependent on Shouchun, and Lejin has no effort to clean it up.

This is the territory of Yuzhou, which Yuan Yao got from Liu Bei's hands, as long as Runan is not lost, this Yuzhou is still in Yuan Yao's hands.

"Fengxiao, are you saying that this Yuan Yao child is advancing by retreating and forcing Yuan Shao to send troops?" Cao Cao is really afraid that Fa Xiao, who is so happy, really does a person who understands, and fights to give him Cao Cao a north-south attack if the army is damaged, in that way, he Cao Cao can't stand it, and he can still resist in front of him, how can this ass not be covered,

"Lord, don't you still understand Yuan Shao Yuan's origin!" Guo Jia said to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao is really the person who is most familiar with Yuan Shao, he is handsome, has a good family background, and is rich, full of wealth and handsome, much better than Cao Cao, a person who relies on his ability to eat.

So Yuan Shao's mentality is also the character of the arrogant Long Aotian, he never looked down on Cao Cao from the beginning.

thinks that Cao Cao is his little brother, he can do whatever he wants, even if Cao Cao goes to war with him, he also thinks that Cao Cao is hitting a stone with an egg, and he will definitely collapse at the touch of a button.

Who knew that he Long Aotian actually lost to Li Quandan, and even if he lost, Yuan Shao thought that he was being dragged back, rather than realizing his mistake.

"If Tian Feng is still there, our army still has to guard against Hebei, and now that Tian Feng and the two have left, this Hebei is just a fish out of the water, and it won't be able to jump for a few days." Guo Jia said coldly.

It's not that Hebei doesn't understand people, understand people, Feng Ji, Guo Tu, Judge, Xin Ping, Xun Cen, which one is not a talent.

But it is precisely because of these cross-world talents that there are too many. That's why Yuan Shao caused trouble.

Whoever comes up with the idea, everyone else will inevitably oppose it.

If Feng Ji Guo Tu wants to send troops, then the trial of Xin Ping will inevitably stop it, on the contrary, if the trial of Xin Ping wants to send troops, Feng Ji and Guo Tu will try their best to stop it.

And the other two Xun Cen and Xu Yu are two wall-to-wall grass mixed with mud, holding no one to offend, expecting the two of them to be righteous and strict, it is simply a fool's dream.

"This Yuan Shao can't send troops, so he can only give money and food!" Guo Jia basically guessed Yuan Yaojun's plan.

"Ruyin City, Xiacai City has to go up to three cities, this price is not small, according to Yuan Yao's personality, it is unwilling not to dig out a piece of meat from his uncle!" Guo Jia said to Cao Cao.

"Hmph, let him Yuan Yao'er be cunning, it's useless, we want Cai Ying to go to the three cities under this Ruyin, and we also want the grain and grass materials he got from Yuan Shao!" Cheng Yu next to Cao Cao also spoke.

"This Yuan Shao will definitely not lack anything for Yuan Yao's children, as long as our military concubine sends a cavalry to garrison Qingzhou, carefully exploring the border of Qingzhou will definitely be gained, and then the city will be ours, and this grain and grass ordnance will also be ours!" Cheng Yu suggested to Cao Cao.

"Cavalry!?" Cao Cao has only one cavalry in his hands, and that is the tiger and leopard cavalry.

"The tiger and leopard riders have besieged Langya County in Xuzhou!" Cao Cao had already obtained from Lejin's news that Langya County was occupied by Yuan Yao's Modao Battalion, relying on the tall city and sufficient grain and grass, Zhang Xun was a nail in Xuzhou in the city, which made Cao Cao very uncomfortable.

"Lord, this Langya County is thick and surrounded by a moat, it is a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it will be difficult for General Xiahou Yuan to take it for a while, so it is better to let the Shenxing Army besiege Langya County, and let General Cao Chun take the tiger and leopard to Qingzhou to investigate!" Cheng Yu said again, he was originally the first strategist in Cao Cao's army, and when Guo Jia came, he gave way, although he didn't say it, he was still a little uncomfortable in his heart, and now that he has an opportunity, he naturally won't let go of this opportunity and try his best to give advice to Cao Cao.

"How can you trap Zhang Xun with just one divine marching army!" Guo Jia said a little hesitantly.

"The Divine Marching Army is not enough, don't forget the sacrificial wine, there is not only the Divine Marching Army in Xuzhou, but also the Xuzhou soldiers and horses of General Lejin!" Cheng Yu said proudly.

"General Lejin's soldiers and horses have to garrison Xuzhou again, and they have to escort grain and grass, and there are not enough personnel!"

"The grain and grass can be suspended, or simply not escorted!" Cheng Yu said.

"Huh?" Guo Jia was about to object.

But Cheng Yu then spoke: "As long as we get that batch of grain and grass materials, my lord and my army don't have to worry about the war next year!" ”

What is fighting in a war, what is fighting is money and food, not that you can fight whoever you want.

Cao Cao and Yuan Shao fought a battle, although Yuan Shao's army of 50,000 was destroyed, but it was still unharmed for Yuan Shao.

What does Yuan Shao have, Jizhou Youzhou and Qingzhou, Jizhou is the granary of the world, Youzhou is also a rich land, and the state is almost there, and Qingzhou is the same as the Central Plains.

Only the food supply of these four continents can support Yuan Shao's conquest of the world.

As for Cao Cao, there is only one Yanzhou, Xuzhou finally survived Tao Qian and drove Lu Bu away, but he didn't expect to be played by Liu Bei again, so Xuzhou is already half-disabled, and it will take at least ten years to restore it to the former rich land.

Qingzhou has just arrived, and Cao Cao himself has not had time to operate it.

Just relying on Yanzhou, how can his old Cao be able to bear Yuan Shao.

Cao Cao's attack on Yuan Yao not only wanted to kill chickens and monkeys, but also had the meaning of pinching soft persimmons and beating the autumn wind here in Yuan Yao.

After all, Yuan Yao has also won so many battles, there must be some in this family, and even Cao Cao has considered it, as long as Yuan Yao's envoy comes to confess and provide grain and grass, he Cao Cao will be able to exchange these cities back.

This is all forced by no money and food.

If you can get the batch of grain and grass that Yuan Shao gave to Yuan Yao, then sell these three cities to Yuan Yao.

Then he Cao Cao really doesn't have to worry about running out of food.

Don't say it's really fake.

"Lord, you can't slack off in the grain road!" Guo Jia dissuaded Cao Cao.

"Sacrificial wine, the lord also knows that the grain and grass cannot be carried, but some time ago, General Lejin just sent a batch, which is enough for my army to spend more than a month, as long as I get Yuan Shao's grain and grass, it is not too late to escort it!" Cheng Yu can think that the plan will be implemented, so that Cao Cao's army will get half of the credit for getting grain and grass.

"What Zhong De said is extremely true!" Our Lord Cheng Yu is also a Zhongde.

"Fengxiao, this month, if Fengxiao is not at ease, it's a big deal that we stick to help! As long as you get that batch of grain and grass, Fengxiao, you and I Hongyuan will be half the success! Cao Cao said excitedly.

Cao Cao and Guo Jia dreamed of destroying Hebei and taking Hebei to become the overlord of the north, which was Guo Jia's Hongyuan intention for Cao Cao.

Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao's appearance and Cheng Yu and the others, he knew that Cao Cao had made up his mind, so he could only shake his head.

However, he, Guo Jia, still increased his scout probing of the Lujiang Army.
