Chapter 296: The Consequences of Underestimating the Enemy's Reckless Advance

Frustrated and persuaded to no avail, he had to leave in a huff, and when he left the camp, he looked up to the sky and sighed: "Pei Qing is by no means as easy as imagined, the lord is so careless, I am afraid that in the future, we will all become Pei Qing's prisoners!" ”

After Guo Tu heard about this, he immediately told Yuan Shao what he had said, and Yuan Shao was secretly angry when he heard about it, and began to alienate him.

However, Guo Tu took this opportunity to regain Yuan Shao's trust, and he was secretly proud in his heart, after some painstaking planning, he finally succeeded in persuading the lord to alienate himself and re-establish his trust.

"Hehe, frustrated, frustrated, all of this is your own suffering, but it has nothing to do with me, if you were cautious, with your life-saving grace to the lord, even if I add up to my slander, I may not be able to do anything to you, but now you are pampered and arrogant, but you show your cleverness in front of the lord, don't you know that the lord hates the most is the kind of person who is good at showing himself? If I don't grasp such a good opportunity, then am I still Guo Tu? As the saying goes, character determines fate, your character is not born to please the lord, even if the lord has the grace to save his life, but it is useless, this is your life, and you can't accept it. Guo Tu's heart was very proud, with a triumphant smile on his face, secretly cheering for himself to regain Yuan Shao's favor.

In the following days, Guo Tu captured a few more fine works from Pei Qing's command, all of whom went to Liu Yu for help without exception, and the theme was to urge grain without exception, and even later changed the interest to fifty percent, which shows Pei Qingqiuliang's eagerness.

Of course, among them, there are also a few clever meticulous works who took the opportunity to escape, which made several strategists under Yuan Shao's command feel a little disapproving, in their opinion, those meticulous efforts to escape will not play any role at all, even if they really go to Liu Yu to borrow food from Liu Yu, Liu Yu also has to consider considering the alliance relationship with Yuan Shao, as the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, how could Liu Yu abandon Yuan Shao, who maintained a close neighborhood relationship with him, to help Pei Qing? Unless there's something wrong with his head.

So Liu Yu doesn't have to worry about borrowing grain at all, this thing is impossible to happen.

After Yuan Shao received this information, he immediately ordered his eldest son, Yuan Tan, who was still in the north, to strengthen his guard, not to allow anyone's grain to be transported from the north to the south, and if anyone dared to disobey, it would be confiscated immediately.

At the same time, Yuan Shao ordered the officers and men of the three armies to prepare for another attack on Yewang City soon after.

However, after learning the news, he met Yuan Shao again and tried to stop the matter, only to see him say to Yuan Shao: "My lord, even if Pei Qing's army has no food, we should not directly attack it, we need to wait until his food is exhausted, he is extremely poor, and when he has to give an order to retreat, the lord can easily recover Hanoi, but why should he take the initiative to attack?" ”

Before Yuan Shao could speak, he saw Guo Tu and said directly: "Today's situation is changing in an instant, we can't just watch such a good opportunity slip away in front of us, right?" Besides, the Huns were capricious, the previous moment closed the field, maybe the next moment will be reopened, and, this is about to be the New Year, if the lord leads the army into Luoyang during the New Year, when today's son on New Year's Day directly announced the lord as a general, what a glorious thing it should be? From now on, the lord coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, this is the business of the king, why not? Besides, Pei Qing is already extremely difficult, otherwise he would not be so eager to urge to borrow food, in this case, we will attack it, and lure it with food, the enemy army will inevitably collapse without a fight, isn't such a clever strategy much stronger than your idea of self-defense? ”

"That's right," Yuan Shao nodded, and said with a smile: "Gong and you, just keep your eyes open and watch carefully, this time our army will definitely win a big victory, and the realization of our strategic intentions is just around the corner." ”

"I hope so, my lord, the lower officials have something to ask for, and I ask the lord to grant permission." He knew that things would never go so smoothly, since he couldn't change Yuan Shao's decision, since he was useless here, it was better to take a step back and take care of the rear for Yuan Shao, so that Yuan Shao would have a way back in the future, especially to prevent Cao Cao, he had a relationship with Cao Cao before, but he knew that this old friend was by no means easy to match, he was now gathering heavy troops in Pinggao County, but he had never helped his side fight a battle, not even waving his flag and shouting, This is obviously abnormal, maybe what Cao Cao really cares about is not that Yuan Shao can win, but may hope that Yuan Shao will lose, because in this way, Cao Cao may take advantage of the victory to launch an attack on Jizhou, and at that time I am afraid that the whole of Hanoi will not be owned by Yuan Shao.

Therefore, Fu Zhi decided to take the opportunity to stabilize the rear, at least leaving him a way back when Yuan Shao was defeated and retreated.

Of course, although he had decided to do so, he would not directly explain his purpose, but used Yuan Shao as an excuse to supervise the transportation of grain and grass, and for him, such an excuse would not arouse Yuan Shao's disgust, and might be able to contribute to his own success.

Sure enough, Yuan Shao agreed with almost no hesitation after listening to Frustration's request, because in Yuan Shao's opinion, this Frustration dangling in front of him was not only useless, but would affect his mood, so it was better to throw him to the rear, so as not to be laughed at by others for being ungrateful.

Guo Tu did not object to this, because for Guo Tu, as long as he could maintain his favored situation in front of the lord Yuan Shao, it was enough, as for the things that ordinary officers were unwilling to do, what did it matter if they were given to the frustrated ministers?

Seeing that the result was really satisfactory, he didn't say anything anymore, and immediately took his headquarters to Wude County to take office.

The departure of the frustrated professor suddenly made Yuan Shao and Guo Tu breathe a sigh of relief, and the pressure on them was suddenly gone, and from then on, they could deal with Pei Qing as they wanted, and no one would obstruct it anymore.

Therefore, not a few days after he left, it was estimated that Pei Qing was already in internal and external difficulties, and his own side had already occupied a great advantage, so in this situation, he naturally had to take the initiative to attack and make himself and his army famous.

After some planning, Yuan Shao decided to launch a surprise attack on Yewang City at dawn two days later, and at the same time induce the defenders in the city to surrender voluntarily with the advantage of military rations, or even turn against each other.

Regarding the decision made by Yuan Shao, no one in the strategists objected at all, not even a trace of objection, and they all became echo worms.

So at dawn two days later, Yuan Shao personally led the army to Yewang City, according to the previous battle plan, preparing to capture Yewang City, and at the same time inducing the defenders to give up resistance and directly choose to surrender with their own food and material advantages.
