Strike at this time, and the enemy will definitely find out soon.

But so what, they are transporting grain and grass, and they can't run away.

Zhang Ming went out directly, and on the way, they had already arranged all the bows and crossbows.

Zhang Ming took six hundred people, as well as Zhao Yun's fifty people, and together they went in the opposite direction with each other.

After walking for more than ten minutes, the two sides approached, and at this time the other party found Zhang Ming.

"There is an enemy ahead."

"Alert, alert."

"Defend in place."

A group of teams carrying grain hurried to prepare.

"Report, General, the enemy is about five or six hundred."

The first time I reported it, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it was just a bandit.

Five or six hundred people, what is there to be afraid of.

"Report, General, the enemy is well-armed and is coming at us."

Soon after, the soldiers came with more detailed information.

A regular army of five or six hundred people?

Everyone who came for the grain and grass was careful.

Soon, Zhang Ming and they were killed.

Suddenly, Cao Jun was startled when he saw a very strict team.

"Kill."

This army transporting grain is all heavy soldiers, and Zhang Ming took the lead in killing it.

"Put."

Suddenly, arrows were fired, and rows attacked.

Immediately, many people fell on the other side, and all the previous preparations were useless.

Before, they were only prepared to deal with ordinary armies, or against bandits.

And Zhang Ming is a special soldier, well-trained and well-equipped, and even the fighting style is different.

"Kill."

Zhang Ming and Zhao Yun rushed into the crowd and killed left and right.

These people have never seen such a ferocious one, where can they resist.

A group of soldiers rushed up from behind and gave you a crossbow directly.

As soon as the bows and crossbows were exhausted, some men began to kill them with their swords, while others loaded them with arrows.

"Withdraw, withdraw."

Not long after the engagement, hundreds of people died, and the enemy was still so strong.

Unable to resist, the general wanted to retreat first and reorganize his troops.

"Burn the grain and grass immediately."

The enemy retreated, and Zhang Ming did not go to pursue.

Each person brought a small pot of alcohol and poured it directly on the grain and grass.

Then, take out some lighters, light the grain and grass, and immediately retreat.

"Oops, they've burned the grain."

"Put out the fire immediately."

Cao Jun was too slow to react.

They just wanted to retreat and reorganize their forces and formations, but who knew that Zhang Ming would directly smash the plate.

Moreover, the grain and grass were almost burned, and they could not save them.

After Zhang Ming led people to burn the grain and grass, he immediately evacuated from the path.

When they had evacuated for half an hour, Cao Ren arrived with a cavalry detachment.

But it was too late.

Now, he doesn't know where to chase Zhang Ming if he wants to chase him.

Cao Ren scolded angrily and asked about the enemy's situation.

"This is Zhang Ming's elite, and they are afraid that they will find out that we are short of food and grass."

"Go back, you don't have to go to the front."

Cao Ren directly asked these people to return the same way.

Their combat effectiveness is not good in the first place, and it is useless to let them go, and they will consume more food.

Cao Ren sent a soldier back to report the news, while he was thinking about where to go next.

He knew that there was still some grain and grass to be transported behind, but it was too scattered.

There are not too many people transporting grain and grass, and if there are too many people, there will be more food on the road, and not many people will be able to reach the front line.

The best way is to centralize transportation and send more people to protect it.

But they couldn't wait to be concentrated, and a batch was sent quickly, otherwise Cao Cao's side would mutiny.

Soon, Cao Cao received the news.

His face was not very good.

Sitting on the top, he said with a heavy face: "Zhang Ming began to attack our grain road, but there is a way to take Yecheng as soon as possible." ”

Several people discussed for a while, depending on the situation in the city.

If the army in the city continues to defend to the death, they will not be able to defeat it.

"Lord, we can give the defenders in the city a promise, let them abandon Yecheng, and when we enter Yecheng, we will not attack other counties and counties, and help them block Zhang Ming." Cheng Yu proposed.

Cao Cao said casually: "Will they believe it?" ”

"I won't believe it, but they'll take advantage of it."

Cao Cao nodded and asked Cheng Yu to continue.

"To put it simply, this Yuan Group wants us to fight with Zhang Ming, but this needs an opportunity, so we will give them this opportunity..."

Everyone planned for a while and felt that it was feasible.

When Cao Cao and them were planning, Zhang Ming attacked everywhere and destroyed their four grain transportation teams in three days.

However, there were still several teams transporting grain and grass that were delivered.

Cao Cao's collection of grain and grass was very scattered, and it was collected from all over the country.

dragged on for three days, and Cao Cao had to save his life every day.

Cao Cao finally got in touch with the people in the city.

After making contact, Cao Cao began to plan.

"My lord, news from the city, they promised to open the south gate, and then they went out through the west gate."

"But they demanded that the gates be opened at nightfall."

Xun You reported the news to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao sneered and said, "I'm sure that when they open the south gate, they will also open the north gate and let Zhang Ming's army come in." ”

"That's right, that's what they should think, they plan to open the city gate the night after tomorrow and let them in."

Cao Cao knew it.

At this time, his grain and grass have not been supplied, and he has not been able to supply it on a large scale.

And Zhang Ming's rear is very safe, and there are many preparations, and at this time he is constantly transporting grain and grass.

Cao Cao had a hard time.

Zhang Ming attacked his grain and grass, and after burning it several times, Zhang Ming temporarily retreated.

Because Cao Ren pursued him everywhere with an army of 20,000.

It was confirmed that Cao Cao could not transport grain and grass in large quantities, and they had an opportunity.

Back in the barracks, Zhang Ming called the generals.

"We can be sure that Cao Cao's grain and grass are insufficient, and next, we will directly send troops to interfere, and in addition, mobilize more grain and grass to the front line, and the three parties will prepare to consume it."

At this time, Zhang Ming analyzed that among the three parties, the most beneficial one is himself.

Zhang Ming has taken the three counties and quickly controlled them.

The method of control is very simple, that is, all the officials are replaced from top to bottom.

Replace all the officials, if the family here dares to mess around, then kill.

changed his strategy, and Zhang Ming directly sent 20,000 troops the next day and ran to Cao Cao's rear.

This made Cao Cao very anxious, and he hurriedly sent troops to keep up.

Once Zhang Ming destroyed the grain and grass, they were very passive.

The two armies fought for a day, and there was no fighting.

Zhang Ming drove the army back, but sent a large number of scouts, and once Cao Cao had military rations arrived, Zhang Ming would send troops to loot.

Cao Cao felt threatened.

"We must fight once, once we enter the city, the two armies will have a bloody battle, we must prepare in advance."

Cao Cao had already agreed with the plan to fight hard with Zhang Ming in the city.

The next day, Zhang Ming's team burned some of Cao Cao's grain and grass, which made Cao Cao angry and helpless.

"Be ready, regardless of Zhang Ming's team, tomorrow night, we will fight with it."
