Xu You bought the guard sergeant to escape from Yuan Shao's camp and went straight to Cao Cao's village, where the sergeant in ambush on the side of the road captured Xu You. Xu You said: "I am an old friend of Cao Gong, quickly inform me and say that Nanyang Xu You is coming to see." ”

The sergeant was busy reporting into the village, and Cao Cao was just about to undress and rest at this time, when he heard that Xu Yu had eloped here. Cao Cao was overjoyed, he didn't have time to put on his shoes, and went out barefoot to greet him.

Cao Cao saw Xu Yu from afar, stroked his palms and laughed, and entered the big tent with Xu You's hand, and Cao Cao bowed to the ground first. Xu You panicked up and asked: "Gong is a big Han Sikong, I am a cloth cloth, why is he so humble?" ”

Cao Cao said: "Ziyuan is an old friend, how dare he be on a par with a name!" ”

Xu You said ashamedly: "I can't choose the master, I bend to Yuan Shao, I don't listen to my words, I don't follow my plans, and I will abandon it to see the old man today." May it be included. ”

Cao Cao smiled: "Ziyuan is willing to come, I will help me!" May I be taught to break Yuan Shao's plan. ”

Xu You asked tentatively: "I once taught Yuan Shao to attack Xu Du with light cavalry, and attack each other head to tail. ”

Cao Cao was shocked, wiped his forehead and said, "If Yuan Shao uses Ziyuan's words, I will be defeated." ”

Xu You chuckled and said, "How much is the army ration in Gongjin?" ”

Cao Cao rolled his eyes and said, "It can be used for one year." ”

Xu You smiled: "I'm afraid not." Cao Cao said again: "There is half a year." ”

Xu You brushed his sleeves up, stepped out of the account and said: "I am honest with each other, and Cao Gong sees that the deception is like this, how can I hope for it?" ”

Cao Cao retained and said: "Don't be angry, don't be angry, Shang Rong will tell the truth." The army's food can really support three months. ”

Xu You said with a smile: "Everyone in the world says that Meng De is a traitor, and it is true today." ”

Cao Cao also smiled: "Don't you hear that 'soldiers are not tired of cheating'!" ”

Cao Cao then whispered to Xu You: "The army has stopped having this month's food. ”

Xu You shouted: "Don't hide it from me! You've run out of food! ”

Cao Cao was stunned and asked, "How does Ziyuan know about it?" ”

Xu You then took out the letter between Cao Cao and Xun Yu and showed it to Cao Cao: "Who wrote this book?" ”

Cao Cao was shocked and asked, "Where did you get it?" ”

Xu You told Cao Cao about the capture of Cao Cao's envoy, and Cao Cao took Xu You's hand and said: "Ziyuan has come from the old friend, and I hope that there will be someone to teach me." ”

Xu You said: "Ming Gong resists the enemy with a lone army, and does not seek a quick victory, and this is the way to die." There was a strategy, but in three days, Yuan Shao's 300,000 people were destroyed without a fight. Is Ming Gong still willing to listen? ”

Cao Cao was overjoyed and said: "I wish to hear a good policy." ”

Xu You sighed and said: "Yuan Shao's army has a heavy amount of food, and he has accumulated all the black nests. Chun Yuqiong was drunk and unprepared, and the public could choose elite soldiers to falsely claim that Yuan General Jiang Qi led his troops to protect the grain, and burned his grain and grass in the intermittent time, so the Shao army would be in chaos in three days. ”

Cao Cao was overjoyed, treated Xu Yu heavily, and stayed in his own village. The next day, Cao Cao personally selected 5,000 horse infantry soldiers and prepared to go to Wuchao to rob grain. Zhang Liao persuaded and said: "Yuan Shaotun's grain place, is he unprepared? The lord can not go lightly, but can send General Fengxian to lead the troops. I am afraid that there is also deception. ”

Cao Cao waved his hand and said, "No." Xu Yu came here, and Yuan Shao was defeated. Today, our army is not given food, and it is difficult to hold on for a long time; If you don't need to do anything, you just sit and wait for sleepy. If Xu Yu is deceitful, how can he stay in my village? And I also want to rob the village for a long time. I will go to the grain robbery today, don't doubt it. ”

Zhang Liao reminded: "It is also necessary to prevent Yuan Shao from taking advantage of the situation. ”

Cao Cao smiled: "I'm already familiar with it." ”

Cao Cao taught Xun You, Guo Jia, and Cao Hong to guard Dazhai with Xu You and Lu Bu, and at the same time, the three of them also monitored Xu You and Lu Bu. Xiahoudun and Xiahou Yuan led an army to ambush on the left, and Cao Ren and Cao Chun led an army to ambush on the right in case of contingencies.

Cao taught Sun Ce, Zhang Liao, and Xu Chu in the front, Xu Huang and Yu Ban in the back, and Cao Cao introduced Dian Wei, Le Jin and the rest of the generals in the middle; Cao Cao led a total of 5,000 men and horses, under the banner of Yuan's army, the sergeants all carried grass and firewood on their backs, and everyone held a wooden stick in their mouths, and used cloth to strangle the horse's mouth to prevent making a sound.

At dusk, Cao Cao led his troops to march to the black nest, and the night was full of stars. Frustrated to observe the stars at night in Yuan Shao's camp, he found that a catastrophe was coming, so he asked to see Yuan Shao overnight.

Fu Zhu said: "My lord, the place where Wuchao is storing grain, you must be prepared. We watched the sky at night, and it was expected that Cao's army would come to rob the camp tonight, so it was advisable to quickly send elite soldiers and fierce generals to patrol the mountain road in the middle of the road, so as not to be counted by Cao Cao. ”

Yuan Shao was skeptical, hesitated for a while and said to Frustration: "Let me believe you once!" ”

Yuan Shao then sent Yan Liang and Wen Chou to lead 10,000 troops to the rescue of Wuchao, and instructed before leaving: "The two generals must fight quickly when they go, if the Wuchao catches fire, they must put out the fire first, and they must not fall in love with war." ”

Yan Liang nodded and urged the horse to step forward, let the army quickly pull out, and said to Wen Chou: "This frustration is too verbose, if Cao Cao really comes to rob the camp, tonight will be the time for you and my brother to make meritorious contributions!" ”

Cao Cao led his troops to march at night, passing by Yuan Shao's military village, and the soldiers asked which part of their military horses they were. Cao Cao responded: "Duke Yuan was afraid that Cao Cao would attack the rear baggage, so he sent Jiang Qi to Wuchao to protect the grain. ”

Yuan Jun saw that it was Cao Cao who was under the banner of Yuan Shao, so he did not doubt it. Later, he passed through several places, all of which falsely claimed to be Jiang Qi's troops, but they were not hindered.

By the time Cao Cao led his troops to Wuchao, it had already passed the fourth watch. Cao Cao ordered the sergeants to pile up firewood and grass around the black nest, and set fire to Yuan Shaojun's baggage.

Cao Cao led the generals to beat the drum and shout to kill and rushed straight into the camp of Chun Yu Qiong, at this time Chun Yu Qiong just drank wine with the generals, drunk and slept in the camp tent.

Chun Yuqiong heard the sound of war drums outside the camp, and hurriedly jumped up and shouted: "Enemy attack!" Get up for me and go with me to the battle! ”

Chun Yuqiong's troops were raided by Cao Cao's army, and they were immediately in chaos. Chun Yuqiong put on his battle armor and picked up the lance, and shouted at Yuan Jun, who was in a mess outside the camp: "Don't mess up, you group of waste, meet the enemy for me!" ”

Many of the soldiers and horses under the command of Chun Yuqiong were newly recruited by Yuan Shao from all over the country, and they had not experienced the battle formation, so they naturally couldn't react to the surprise attack at this time.

Chun Yuqiong had no choice but to find Wei Yuanjin and Zhao Rui, and the three of them led their soldiers together to deal with the chaos. Han Juzi and Lu Weihuang had just come back from transporting grain, and when they saw the fire on the tun, they hurriedly came to the rescue.

Han Juzi led troops to attack the rear of Cao's army, but the generals led by Cao Cao this time were all the elite of the elite, and the generals were all fierce generals. As soon as Han Juzi came on horseback, he stabbed two Cao soldiers to death with a spear, but was stopped by a fierce general holding a stone axe, and the general was Xu Huang.

Xu Huang raised the stone axe and slashed directly at Han Juzi, Han Juzi couldn't dodge and was hit in the head by an axe and died tragically. Seeing that Han Juzi was killed in battle, Lu Weihuang led his subordinates to rush to the rear of Cao's army fearlessly, but unfortunately he ran into Yu Ban.

Yu Ban's military formation was very tight, the soldiers held spears to resist the Yuan soldiers, the archers stepped forward to fire a volley, the Yuan soldiers broke up, and Lu Weihuang was also killed by random arrows. Cao Bing was each one as ten, plus the black nest caught fire, and Yuan Shaojun's soldiers were busy fighting the fire. Cao Cao personally fought and killed, and everyone in Cao soldiers moved forward bravely.

Chun Yuqiong knew that food and grass were more important than his own soldiers, and Yuan Shaowang would definitely send troops to rescue when he saw the fire in Wuchao. All he could do was pull out as much grain as he could from the granary. Chun Yuqiong led people to transport grain and grass in a grain truck, but heard the shouting of killing approaching from behind.

Sun Ce and Le Jin led hundreds of Cao soldiers to kill, and Sun Ce stabbed a spear in a straight line, piercing the two Yuan soldiers who were transporting grain. Le Jin is also brave and unmatched, although he is short in stature, he rushes to the front, relying on his flexible body to dodge the spear stabbed by Yuan Jun, and swinging a big knife to cut down three or four Yuan soldiers one after another.

Seeing this, Wei Yuanjin and Zhao Rui hurriedly stepped forward with swords and spears to attack Sun Ce and Le Jin, Le Jin fought more and more fiercely, and the cold front steel knife in his hand slashed hard to the spear head of Wei Yuanjin, and the spear head was immediately cut off.

Le Jin turned around and slashed again, splitting a crack in Wei Yuanjin's armor, and Wei Yuanjin hurriedly retreated in shock. Sun Ce just shot back Zhao Rui, and when he saw Wei Yuan advancing and retreating, he shook up his spear and stabbed him in the back with a shot, stabbing him to death.
