Chapter 324: The Battle of Guandu (11)
And all the people bowed their heads and were silent. Xin Ping sighed. However, the voice was loud and zero, and it happened to be heard by Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao said angrily: "Xin Ping, what do you want? Do you think we don't dare to attack Cao Cao? Also waiting to see my jokes? ”
Xin Ping hurriedly knelt down: "The subordinates don't dare, the subordinates just think that we have wasted the best opportunity to attack Guandu, and I am afraid that this expedition against Cao Cao will ......!" ”
"Humph!" Yuan Shao snorted coldly: "Evil words confuse the public, mess with the hearts of our army, come and pull Xin Ping out and behead him!" ”
Xun Zhan saw that Yuan Shao was now a mad dog, and he wanted to kill Xin Ping when he caught someone biting whom, so he hurriedly dissuaded: "The lord is angry!" Xin Ping is also just speculation, today's military meeting is not just hoping that everyone has their own opinions, and Xin Ping is not necessarily right, if the lord kills Xin Ping, I am afraid that it will chill everyone's hearts! ”
Yuan Shao saw Xun Zhan pleading for Xin Ping, and it was not easy to save his face, so he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, panted, and waved his hand to the guards who had already pounced on Xin Ping and were ready to arrest Xin Ping: "For Youruo's sake, I will bypass you today, and if you dare to talk nonsense, you will not be spared!" ”
Xin Ping escaped death and returned to his seat in a huff.
Yuan Shao asked Xun Zhan: "Sir, what do you think we should do now?" ”
Xun Zhan said: "Now that Cao Cao's army has returned to Guandu, if it still can't be attacked again, in the opinion of his subordinates, there is only a decisive battle, our army has a lot of soldiers, even if it is a decisive battle, I am not afraid of Cao Cao!" ”
Yuan Shao frowned: "Now we only have 200,000 left, if we fight hard with Cao Cao, I heard that Cao Jun's black-armored cavalry is very powerful, in case this kind of cavalry Cao Cao has tens of thousands, although our army has an advantage in numbers, it may not be able to defeat Cao Cao." ”
Xu You said: "Don't worry, the lord knows that this kind of personal soldier subordinates know, called the tiger and leopard cavalry, is the most elite cavalry in the Cao army, this kind of cavalry training is not easy, and it needs to be equipped with good war horses and soldiers' full body armor, the cost is huge, and there are only 5,000 cavalry in the Cao army." ”
Yuan Shao nodded: "Five thousand horsemen, if there are really five thousand horsemen, don't be afraid of him, since this is the case, immediately send someone to Cao Jun to write a war letter!" ”
"No!" Everyone spoke in unison.
When everyone walked to the door, Yuan Shao suddenly stopped Guo Tu and asked him to stay. Guo Tu had no choice but to turn back. After everyone left, Yuan Shao took out a square box and handed it to Guo Tu, saying: "Mr. Guo, this is news sent from Yecheng, you see what I should do, now you are the only one by my side who can be trusted!" ”
Guo Tu opened the box, and inside was a silk silk. It was a secret letter from Yecheng who stayed behind to judge Yuan Shao. The letter made it clear in detail that Xu Yu and his nephew took advantage of the convenience of raising food and grass to embezzle money and grain. Li Qi has arrested Xu You's family and imprisoned him, waiting for Yuan Shao's decision.
Guo Tu gasped after reading it, how could this Li Yu be so reckless, what if Xu You knew, Xu You was Yuan Shao's old man, he knew too many things, if Xu You surrendered to Cao Cao, the consequences would be unimaginable. Guo Tu said: "What does the lord think he should do? ”
Yuan Shao said angrily: "Xu Yu relied on his high position and power, and he and his nephew embezzled money and food, and should be beheaded!" ”
"Never!" Guo Tu hurriedly said: "Lord, Xu You has always been greedy, and the matter of embezzling money and grain has already happened, if you kill Xu You's whole family, Xu You will definitely surrender to Cao Cao, and then our army will have no secrets about Cao Cao, this is not a wise choice!" ”
Yuan Shao was stunned: "No!" Will Xu Yu surrender to Cao Cao? ”
As soon as Guo Tu heard it, he knew that it was bad, and Yuan Shao must have ordered Li Qi to kill Xu You's entire family. Guo Tu shook his head and sighed: "The lord has really done something wrong in this matter, for the sake of today's plan, I must arrest Xu You immediately, lest he escape!" ”
Xu You returned to his room, where Xun Zhan and Xin Ping were waiting for him. Xu You was stunned for a moment, and then smiled slightly: "How can the two of you come to me when you are free, you won't come to humiliate me!" ”
Xun Zhan also smiled: "I heard that Mr. Xu has made a lot of benefits in Yecheng, can you share a little with us?" ”
Xu You looked at Xun Zhan vigilantly. Xun Zhan continued: "Mr. Xu is a smart person, he must know what mine is, I have a message here, if Mr. Xu is willing to listen, I am willing to sell it to Mr. Xu, of course the price should be reasonable." ”
"What's the news?" Xu Yu asked.
Xun Zhan took a sip of tea: "Of course it's the news of Yecheng, I heard that Yecheng has been bloody recently!" ”
Xu You watched Xun Zhan put down the teacup: "What do you want to do?" ”
Xun Zhan smashed it, smashed it, and smashed his mouth: "That's it!" As long as Mr. Xu tells me the location where you hide the money and food, I will tell you the news, this condition should be very reasonable, this is a major matter related to Mr. Xu's life, how about it? Mr. Xu can think about it, but quickly, if it's too late, I'm afraid that even if I know, Mr. Xu won't be able to leave! ”
Xu You looked at Xun Zhan, and kept guessing what Xun Zhan was going to do. After a long time, Xun Zhan saw that Xu You didn't answer himself, and said: "I can reveal a little bit first, to show my sincerity, Yecheng is investigating and dealing with the matter of embezzling money and grain, and many people have been killed!" ”
"What!" Xu You was anxious all of a sudden: "How do you know?" ”
"You don't have to ask about that." Xun Zhan looked at Xu You: "I still listen, Yuan Shao has ordered to kill all these moths, Mr. Xu is a smart person, he should know my words, if you want to know more, then you have to exchange things!" ”
"Good!" Xu Yu eagerly knew the situation of his family, and immediately agreed to Xun Zhan's request, found a bamboo slip, wrote an address on it and handed it to Xun Zhan. Xun Zhan took it, looked at it, and handed it to Xin Ping, who nodded to Xun Zhan. Xun Zhan said: "Very good, Mr. Xu is very sincere, our business is closed!" ”
"Quick! How is my family? Xu Yu was a little hysterical.
Xun Zhan was not in a hurry or impatient: "Hehe, your family is nothing serious, it's just that they were beheaded all over the house!" ”
"Ah......h Xu Yu sat on the ground: "Li Jue, I'm going to kill you!" ”
Xun Zhan saw that Xu You hadn't fainted yet, so he secretly admired Xu You's determination, ignored Xu You, and continued to add fuel to the fire: "This matter is not about Li Yu, it is Yuan Shao's order, if I guess correctly, Yuan Shao may be sending troops here now, he doesn't want his former right-hand man to suddenly become his enemy!" ”
Xu You's eyes were on fire, and he said viciously: "Yuan Shao! ”
Xun Zhan and Xin Ping took the bamboo slips that Xu You gave them and left. Walking out of the door, Xun Zhan smiled at Xin Ping: "I don't know how much grain Xu Yu has saved in that place, if it is too little, is it not worth it for the lord to spend so much effort?" ”
