"What? Yuan Yao'er arrested Xu Ziyuan and wanted to send him to Hebei? "Cao Cao is really dumbfounded, originally he planned to use Xu You's surrender to fool Yuan Yao'er, to see if he can make Yuan Yao'er repeat the mistake of his cheap uncle Yuan Shao, even if Yuan Yao'er is not fooled, Xu You, a person who is very familiar with the military, can also find out about Yuan Yao's camp. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

But I didn't expect Yuan Yao Xiao'er to follow the script at all, and without saying a word, he tied up Xu You and prepared to send him to Hebei.

Cao Cao, this is a meat bun and a dog, there is no return, Cao Cao's whole person is not good.

Cao Cao looked at the Yanzhou subordinates over there, as if he wanted to get some solutions from them.

"Ahem, ahem!" It was Xiahou Yuan who spoke first, "Lord, since Xu Yu has not been able to find out, then it is better to send scouts to investigate!" ”

"Yes, lord, now several of Yuan Yao'er's cavalry are outside, and only foot soldiers exist in the big camp, so you can completely spread the tiger and leopard cavalry!" Cao Chun over there said to Cao Cao.

"Lord, Cao Hong, please fight!" Cao Hong over there directly knelt down, "Please hand over the tiger and leopard to me, I will definitely find out the situation of Yuan Yao's army clearly, if Yuan Yao'er has any changes, I have the confidence to give a blow!" "Before, it was Yuan Yao's Huainan Army surrounded by several cavalry, but now the whole thing has been changed, and Cao Cao has a cavalry unit, and Yuan Yao Xiaoer has no other mobile troops except for the scout battalion.

"Yes!" Cao Cao nodded, "It's okay to send troops, but it's better to wait until it gets dark!" "Cao Cao is suspicious, and he doesn't want Yuan Yao's ambush at all.

"Why don't our army steal the camp at night?" Someone suggested it.

But Cao Cao vetoed it without thinking about it: "It's dark and the wind is high, if Yuan Yao'er is defenseless, there will be a ghost!" "Yuan Yao'er is afraid of life and death, and the vigilance at night is the biggest, if you attack at night, don't steal chickens and rice.

"If the lord doesn't have the night to resist, won't our army be able to fight with Yuan Yao in the field during the day?"

"Yes or no?" Cao Cao was confident: "If Yuan Yao'er really doesn't have those cavalry troops, even if Yuan Yao'er pulls out the entire foot soldiers, I won't be afraid!" ”

"Okay, Cao Hong, don't be ado, you hurry up and prepare, this time you must find out the truth of Yuan Yao'er for me!"

"Yes!"

Cao Hong is very happy, because the tiger and leopard ride was originally Cao Chun's, but now he is seconded by himself, and he Cao Hong has coveted the tiger and leopard ride for a long time.

So Cao Hong was also very hardworking, and in Cao Chun's resentful eyes, Cao Hong still successfully completed the task.

That is, the entire Yuan Yao army may really not move, or the entire Yuan Yao army is really the same as they guessed before, there is no cavalry unit, and the rest are just a few foot soldiers.

There is also the fact that Yuan Yao'er seems to be strengthening the defense of the camp gate, as if he is going to fight a protracted battle with Cao Cao.

"Doesn't this Yuan Yao know that our army's food and grass are enough for a year? Fight a long game with me? "Once the battle is protracted, Cao Cao may become a turtle in the urn, and he Yuan Yao will not feel good, how can there be a thief for a thousand days.

Hebei may be able to recover its vitality in a year, and Yuan Yao'er will be uncomfortable at that time.

"Excuse me?" Cao Cao guessed: "Yuan Yao'er strengthens the barracks, he, Yuan Yao'er, really shrinks the defense line this time as I thought?" ”

"Have you sent back all the news of the soldiers and horses who went to the Cangting Guandu generation?" Cao Cao anxiously asked his soldiers and horses.

He sent soldiers and horses along the way to find out the movements of Yuan Yaojun's other soldiers and horses.

Half an hour later, the good news was delivered to Cao Cao's desk one after another: "Lord, Yuan Yao'er's soldiers and horses in Cangting and Guandu not only did not return to the trend of aiding Xudu, but instead pressed towards Hebei!" ”

"Haha lord, this Yuan Yao Xiao'er is really fooled!" Everyone was congratulating Cao Cao. Now that Yuan Yao Xiao'er has arrested Xu You, there is an explanation, that is, Yuan Yao Xiao'er really thought that Yuan Shao of Hebei Province was going to send troops to help Cao Cao, so he was frightened, on the one hand, he arranged troops in Changting and Guandu to block the possibility of the Hebei army going south, and on the other hand, he sent Xu You to Yuan Shao to let Yuan Shao calm his anger.

"Lord, the eldest son, his efforts have not been in vain!"

"Ang'er!" Cao Cao thought of Cao Ang, his most beloved son, "Ang'er, don't worry, your father will definitely redeem you!" "Cao Cao has confidence, as long as he defeats Yuan Yao'er, Yuan Yao'er will inevitably send Cao Ang back. His siege of Yanzhou will also be lifted soon.

"Lord, I don't think Yuan Yao'er was really fooled!" Guo Jia over there has a different view from Cao Cao and others.

"What do you mean?" Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia over there suspiciously.

"Lord, everything is too normal!" Guo Jia said to Cao Cao over there, "Our plan has been implemented too smoothly, even if there are changes later, but on the whole, it is still as we thought!" Yuan Yao'er really can't see it at all? ”

"Fengxiao, do you mean that Yuan Yao Xiao'er has already seen that this is a plan, but he wants to do it?"

"If you plan it, you can't do it, but it's very possible to push the boat down the river!"

"Huh?" Cao Cao followed Guo Jia's thoughts over there and thought for a moment, and suddenly his eyes widened, "What do you mean?" This Yuan Yao'er is expressing the meaning of the decisive battle to me? ”

"That's right!" Guo Jia nodded, he looked at Cao Cao with a wry smile, "Lord, this Yuan Yao Xiao'er can also see that whether it is dragged down or directly attacked the city, it will be harmful to his army and not beneficial, so he simply put up a position with the same strength, and even said that the troops that are less than my Yanzhou army stay outside the city of Xudu, and want to challenge the lord you..."

"All the cavalry units are scattered! Those who are left are pawns, hahaha, hahaha! Cao Cao suddenly laughed: "I didn't expect that one day, I, Cao Mengde, would be let by a junior!" ”

The current Yuan Yao's Huainan Army and Cao Cao's Yanzhou Army are in the next game of chess, Cao Cao is careful everywhere and vigilant everywhere, or Cao Cao is unwilling to lose, because Cao Cao is afraid of losing, but if Cao Cao does not fall Yuan Yao can't win, so Yuan Yao simply let his son go to the point where Cao Cao thinks he can win.

"Yuan Yao'er is too arrogant!" The civil and military forces in Yanzhou over there also heard it, and they all scolded one by one.

"The Lord fights, there are only people who die standing in Yanzhou, and there are no people who are living on their knees!" Soldiers can be killed, but it will be a shame if you don't make a move.

"Lord, is it true that Yuan Yao Xiao'er has no other reinforcements?" Cheng Yu is still not at ease, I don't know why his heart is always one by one, this is the feeling of meeting the same kind.

"Not anymore!" Cao Cao shook his head, the north is where Yuan Yao's main troops are divided, Cangting and Guandu and Puyang are now completely occupied by Yuan Yao Xiao'er, once Yuan Yao Xiao'er makes a move, it is impossible to hide Cao Cao's situation.

"Two days' work!" Cao Cao said to the group of soldiers and horses under his hands.

Even if Yuan Yao'er's soldiers and horses set off now, it would take two days to reach the outside of Xudu, so these two days were Cao Cao's chance.

"Yuan Yao'er now has less than 40,000 foot soldiers left outside Xudu, and our army's front-line field army only has 20,000 soldiers and horses, but don't forget that our army has absorbed more than 10,000 soldiers and horses of those warriors. In addition, our army has tiger and leopard cavalry, and Yuan Yaoxiao does not have any cavalry troops except for scouts, so our army has the advantage in this battle! ”

"Our army has 20,000 field troops, but most of them are wounded, and the extra 30,000 soldiers and horses, our army has just recovered, and the defense of the city can still be used, if it is a field battle!" Some people agree, and naturally there are people who oppose it.

"Yuan Yao'er has recovered a lot of people's hearts, but don't forget, Yuan Yao'er has captured the eldest son, and the eldest prince still has the people's hearts in Yanzhou." Yuan Yao's dispatch of troops to distribute food was not as good as what Cao Ang had done for Yanzhou for so many years.

"Yuan Yaoxiao'er has repeatedly provoked our army, and the army has long been filled with righteous indignation, if the lord raises his arms at this moment, he will naturally go all out!"

"My lord still doesn't think I should send troops!" Cheng Yu said to Cao Cao over there: "My lord, the grain and grass of our army in Xu Capital is enough for our army for a year and a half, why should my lord go to war?" As long as it is consumed, Yuan Yao'er will naturally be unable to bear it before our army! ”

"Oh?" Cao Cao was a little interested, what kind of thoughts did this Cheng Yu have, "Zhongde, tell me about it!" ”

"Lord Yuan Yao's children have a lot more soldiers and horses in our army, and he wants to recover the hearts of the people in Yanzhou, and the consumption of materials is naturally large, and our army can even release the people in the city to consume Yuan Yao's food, once the food and grass are insufficient, Yuan Yao'er will definitely retreat!"

"Lord Cheng Yu, Yuan Yao'er has Huainan and Xuzhou as the background, Xuzhou is familiar with the world!"

"It's not just about grain and grass, the lord and our army are now trapped in Yanzhou and are enemies on all sides, but isn't this Yuan Yao Xiao'er? Whether it is Liu Biao in Jingzhou or Sun Quan in Jiangdong, Liu Bei is not good for Yuan Yao'er! As long as our army drags on, Yuan Yao'er will withdraw sooner or later! ”

"Do you count on the Jiangdong Army and the Jingzhou Army? General Cheng Yu, don't forget, the Jingzhou Army is a worm on land for Jiaolong in the water, and the Jiangdong Army is not much better than the Jin Army! ”

"There is another one, lord, why don't you let Zhong Xuan let go of Tongguan and put Ma Teng's Xiliang Iron Horse into the pass!" Cheng Yu suddenly said something, which frightened the entire Yanzhou civil and military forces.

Let go of Tongguan and put the Xiliang Iron Horse into Guanzhong?

There was a person who did this back then, and in the end, Dong Zhuo messed up Luoyang Chang'an, and the Han Dynasty was finished.

The Xiliang soldiers and the Hebei army are still different, although the Hebei army is in the north, most of them are still dominated by Han people, this Xiliang iron cavalry is different, the Qiang people are the mainstay, once these Xiliang iron cavalry are put into the pass, it will be really hehe, Yuan Yao is really going to retreat, he Cao Cao has also relieved the siege, but the consequence is that the people of the Central Plains are completely in the flames of war, except for Tongguan, no one can stop the Xiliang army.

(The Xiliang Army is not only Ma Teng's family, the Xiliang Army is more equivalent to a kind of joint army, gathered together for common interests, with Ma Teng as the mainstay!) The army was 200,000)

"Put the Xiliang Iron Rider into Guanzhong!?" Everyone gasped, that is, a ruthless person like Cheng Yu can say such words without any pressure, and it is a sin for other people to dare to think like this.

Cheng Yu knew that his words might cause some personal disgust, especially Xun Yu and others, so Cheng Yu directly took a step back.

"Everything is still quite mastery!" Guo Jia also came back to his senses, but Cheng Yu was ruthless, and he didn't want others to get what he couldn't get.

Fight over and over, the last one still has to listen to Cao Cao, Cao Cao doesn't speak, none of them can sit down and decide.

"Zhongde, don't mention the matter of putting the Xiliang Iron Horse into Guanzhong!" Cao Cao knew that Cheng Yu had provoked the anger of the public, so he stepped forward to cover for Cheng Yu, and Cheng Yu was also for the good of Yanzhou.

Cheng Yu didn't know that his words had planted seeds in Cao Cao's heart.

After reprimanding Cheng Yu, Cao Cao immediately roared loudly, "Yuan Yao'er deceived people too much, he forced me to Yanzhou again and again, and even used tricks to let me fight with the Hebei army, and now it is even outside the city of Xudu, if I Cao Cao no longer acts but pins on the passive beating, this is not my Cao Cao, since Yuan Yao'er wants to fight with me, then 1 battle!" ”

"Fight, fight, fight!"

Everyone was high-spirited, only Cheng Yu lowered his head.

Afterwards, Guo Jia asked Cheng Yu why he was so conservative, Cheng Yu only replied one sentence, and he felt the breath of the same kind.

"Pass the order, make food for the third watch, go out of the city for the fifth watch, I want to break Yuan Yao's traitors outside the city of Xudu tomorrow, all the soldiers who can fight will go out of the city, there will be no soldier left in the city of Xudu, if there is a slack person, there will be no forgiveness!" Cao Cao issued orders to his subordinates.

"Yes!" Soon Cao Cao's orders were dispatched. Tonight is the last day of peace in Xu Ducheng.

Cao Cao asked everyone under his command to rest and prepare for tomorrow's decisive battle, but Cao Cao himself was insomnia.

Because Cao Cao can't afford to lose, once he loses, he will really have nothing!

and the longing for his eldest son Cao Ang made Cao Cao unable to sleep.

Cao Cao can't sleep, how can Yuan Yao and Yuan Dagongzi over there sleep, Lao Cao can't afford to lose, can he Yuan Yao afford to lose?

Once Cao Cao wins, he doesn't know if he wants to annex Yanzhou again, not to mention that the two hungry wolves in Jiangdong are eyeing each other, and Liu Biao of Jingzhou doesn't mind coming to get a piece of the pie.

Yuan Shao can turn his face if he doesn't do it well, and the most important reason is that he Yuan Yao may not be able to escape after he loses.

The mobile troops are all outside, and there are not many war horses in Yuan Yao's army now.

Once the army is defeated, the fun is great.

And the spirit of Yuan Yao's army is also highly tense, although they are luring Cao Cao's army to attack, but when to fight, where to fight is Cao Cao's decision, Yuan Yao's Huainan army can only passively accept.

But fortunately, since Cao Cao is preparing for a decisive battle, it is impossible for him to delay for long, and Cao Cao has a lot of soldiers and horses, so it is impossible to hide anything.

Therefore, from the little smoke rising from the head of the city of Xudu, Yuan Yao's Huainan army knew that Cao Cao's army was about to be dispatched, and Yuan Yao also began to gather his soldiers and horses towards the specified time and place.

Cao Cao didn't have the slightest strength at all, and even the soldiers and horses above the city were mainly scarecrows, so he put together 50,000 people, plus more than 2,000 tigers and leopards, it was about 53,000 people.

Cao Cao looked at the 53,000 people, although there were many wounded soldiers, but how to say that they were also high-spirited, "Morale is available!" Cao Cao couldn't stop nodding, his eyes were a little red, because he saw that several soldiers who were already missing an arm or hand had tied their war knives to the broken arms, the wounds were broken, and the blood was soaked through the sleeves, but there was no frown.

As soon as the sky was bright, Cao Cao immediately opened the city gate, and the soldiers of the Cao army who had finished eating also began to assemble outside the city, and when the assembly was completed, the elite of Cao Cao's army was shown, and all the phalanxes were lined with pennants, without the slightest panic, even those miscellaneous troops quickly stood up with the help of Yu Ban and others.

Cao Cao was wearing a battle armor and holding two long swords in his hands, followed by the two guards Dian Wei and Xu Chu, he rode a war horse to the front of the Chinese army, and shouted loudly to the soldiers and horses under his hands, "Soldiers, have you seen it, that is Yuan Yao's Xiaoer's camp, his Yuan Yao's Huainan army poured into my land, and now it is even more unscrupulous to kill my soldiers, but our army's forehead was defeated, our army can defeat them once, and there will be a second and third time, pass on my military order, and today Xu Du will break Yuan thief!" ”

"Will break the thief!"

"Troops!" The direction of the long sword in Lao Cao's hand is the direction of the troops.
