After Zhang Yan, Li and Guo's soldiers and horses moved in Hebei, Yuan Shao did not give in and immediately began to act, and according to the words of his advisers, he launched a new baptism offensive against Cao Cao and the pottery merchants and others on the front line.

Yuan Shao first in accordance with Tian Feng's law, built a large number of well fences, to Guandu's earthen village to carry out suppressive strong bow shooting, this method in a short period of time is quite effective, overwhelming the rain of arrows in the head downward, and do not want money to press the soldiers of the two armies of Cao Tao to fight, but to take these people on the tower is helpless, for a time it really shook the morale of the pottery merchants and Cao Cao, so that the Cao Tao coalition army once fell into a panic.

Soon, however, Cao Cao and the potters regained their strength. For these two big guys, the well fence is just a trivial matter.

The potter was not in a hurry to take out the heavy weapons of his Jinling City, on the contrary, he just asked Cao Cao to convene the ministers of the two sides to discuss.

In the process of discussion, Liu Ye under Cao Cao really proposed a good strategy and presented a set of drawings, that is, the thunderbolt.

It was the evil thunderbolt used to stone Zhang Ji to death when Liu Xun surrendered to Cao Cao!

Cao Cao was overjoyed to receive the blueprints of the Thunderbolt and immediately joined forces with the potters to send soldiers and horses to build the Thunderbolt to deal with Yuan Shao's well fence.

The potter, on the other hand, secretly instructed his own builders to remember the details and structure of the thunderbolt invented by Liu Ye, and when he returned to Jinling City, he would take his strengths and abandon his own shortcomings to improve the thunderbolt in Jinling City.

After a large number of Liu's thunderbolts were built, the Cao Tao coalition army immediately launched a fierce counterattack against Yuan's wells.

The flying stones in the sky smashed into Yuan Jun's well fence like a landslide, and almost in a moment, his work was completely defeated.

That's the power of technology.

Sure enough, it confirms a true meaning, science is king!

And the method adopted by Yuan Jun to follow the way, long before the establishment of Guandu Dazhai, Cao Cao's army had already been prepared, pouting and blocking!

Not to mention that your Yuan army is digging tunnels, you just sent two battalions of big marmots over, and you were helpless in the face of the long trench filled with water.

After Yuan Jun was flooded with many people, he had to give up and evacuate the tunnels one after another, so as not to be nested and die underground.

After some practice and tossing, Yuan's two strategies ended in failure, and the effort was wasted.

Because of this matter, Yuan Shao reprimanded Tian Feng and Xin Ping!

After Cao Tao's two armies won these two battles, their morale also increased greatly and the morale of the army was excited.

But once the morale of the army is excited, these many people will be a little fluttering, and they don't know why.

……

On the night of this day, after reviewing the various military trivial matters submitted by his generals, the pottery merchants were about to rest, but Pei Qian suddenly came in, saying that Cao Cao's envoy had come and invited the pottery merchants to go to his commander's tent with the important advisers and generals under his command.

The potter was very unhappy, and he didn't know what Cao Cao was tossing in the middle of the night.

Didn't he break Yuan Shao's two schemes in a row, he was too excited, and he had to brag to himself in the middle of the night?

There's something wrong with the surname Cao!

Although there were some doubts in his heart, the potter still led a group of men.

If Cao Cao really just wanted to brag to himself, the potter decided to turn his face on the spot and shave him with big ears!

And in Cao Cao's tent, there are also many important generals and strategists of the Cao army gathered at this moment.

Today, Cao Cao invited the potter and others to come, and it was really not to brag, the potter blamed him.

It was because Niu Jin, a general under Cao Cao, captured a grain officer of the Yuan army.

The pottery merchant is very strange, he is just a deserter of Yuan Shao, why should he let so many people come to his tent with great fanfare.

Seeing the Tao merchant's puzzled eyes, Cao Cao immediately pointed at the Yuan Jun grain officer who was kneeling on the ground, and said angrily to him: "Repeat what you Shicai said to Cao Mou, and repeat it to Mrs. Tao as it is!" ”

The Yuan sergeant turned pale with fright, and after listening to Cao Cao's words, he just nodded vigorously.

Cao Cao asked for the potter, "Who are you under your command?" ”

"The little and the villain are under the account of the general, and the army marquis of General Chun Qiong is ordered to be stationed in the general's grain station."

As soon as they heard this, the expressions of the people in the tent were different, and they all showed surprise.

The potter gently touched the bridge of his nose and fell into deep thought.

"Then why did you become a deserter?"

"The villain was ordered to take the grain, five days later than the expected delivery of grain and grass, if he returned to the main village of the Chinese army, according to the military order of Jizhou, the villain Shangguan will behead the villain, and the villain has no choice but to escape...... I don't want to, but unfortunately I was captured by Sikong's soldiers, and I asked Sikong to spare the villain's life, and the villain is willing to tie the grass ring to report Sikong! ”

Cao Cao smiled and said, "Then tell me, where is the place where Yuan Jun is guarding under Qiong's eyes?" ”

The grain officer hurriedly said, "It's in the black nest!" ”

"How many soldiers and horses are under the command of Chun Yuqiong?"

"Forty thousand."

After some questioning, Cao Cao glanced at the Tao merchant deeply and said, "What does Brother Tao think of this?" ”

The potter pondered and did not answer immediately.

According to common sense, the sneak attack on Yuan Shao's grain storage place is indeed a good time to defeat the strong with the weak, and there is nothing wrong with the words of this grain officer, and the development of things is strikingly similar to history, this matter does seem to be a winning point!

But the potter always felt a little unsteady in his heart.

"Brother Meng De, isn't this a bit too coincidental? How could Yuan Shao's grain storage place be so easy for us to discover? ”

The pottery merchant is not wrong, the historical Wuchao Tun grain, also after the Yuan army's senior cadre Xu You defected to Cao Cao, offered the location and troop deployment, so that Cao Cao had the opportunity to turn the tide in one fell swoop.

In this way, you know the lifeblood of the enemy army, is it a bit of a child's play.

Cao Cao smiled when he heard this, and said: "Brother Tao's doubts, Cao can know how much he can know, this matter sounds deceitful, it is indeed a little strange, but think about it carefully, but in common sense, Yuan Shaojiu attacked my village and lost the battle, its momentum has changed, but it is also in line with the law of the development of the world, and the current sneak attack on Yuan Jun's grain storage place is indeed a big opportunity for us to win, this opportunity is difficult to find, you and I must not miss it." ”

The potter didn't speak, still in thought.

After a while, Fang listened to him and said: "Brother Meng De insisted on this, and Tao didn't say much, but before attacking Wuchao, it is necessary to carefully investigate the situation and determine the deployment of troops and food storage in the place, and then attack!" ”

Cao Cao said in his heart, when did this kid become so cautious? Some don't look like him, isn't this little calf quite a tiger!

Gentleman, isn't it always a matter of winning in danger? How many times have the potters been like this, how can they become so timid and cowardly this time.

But having said that, after all, they were allies, and Cao Cao respected the potter's opinion and decided to do what he said.

……

On the way back to his military village, Guo Jia was somewhat unable to hold back.

"The right thing, Guo feels that there is no omission, and according to the location, Yuan Shaotun's soldiers are also in the nest, why don't you support Cao Cao, but you are suspicious, such a style is not like you!"

The potter smiled when he heard this, not knowing how to explain it to Guo Jia.

The development of things is indeed in accordance with the law, and there are no flaws to be found, but the potter just feels that it is not right in his heart.

In history, Cao Cao spent more than half a year in Guandu and Yuan Shao without getting the information of Wuchao, or because of the leakage of Xu You, a high-level person.

But now, this Wuchao Tun grain, and even who the general is, is it too easy to come compared with history.

The wheel of history has changed direction, and the black nest may no longer be a winning point, will there really be fraud in this?
