Soon after the outbreak of the Battle of Xuzhou, the Battle of the Central Plains followed, in which Cao Cao, the king of Wei, faced Jiao Touch, the first commander of Yuan Xi's Qiandi.

The history books say: the third Guandu War.

When Yuan Xi started the war in advance, Xun You, Cheng Yu, Xu You and others suggested that although Xu Du, Yingchuan, Huaiyang and other outer cities of Changyi were reinforced, but this is different from Xuzhou, the Central Plains is a horse and Pingchuan, if you defend Xuchangdu, etc., it will inevitably be strategically cut by Dayan, so that the two armies of Wei and Qi can not be connected, last time, it was because of Xiliang to help, attacking the north from the flank, forcing Yuan Xi to return to the army, but now it is different, Xiliang has been recovered by Yuan Xi, so Cao Cao is the same as the first two times, It is necessary to block Dayan and Guandu, so that Dayan cannot fully exert the advantages of his army.

At the same time, due to the full assistance of the Qi State in Jingzhou, Cao Cao had the basis for dividing his troops, and directly asked Xiahou Yuan to lead his troops north to the Tiger Prison and make an offensive gesture to block Zhang Liao's army, so as not to threaten the left flank.

In this way, Guandu once again became one of the focal points of the world, even surpassing Xuzhou Pyeongchang.

On the top of Guandu, two huge military camps appeared again, the north side of the military camp hung a "Yan" national flag, and the south side hung the flags of "Wei" and "Qi".

The two sides have been facing each other here for five days, except for a big battle that broke out on the first day, and the troops were collected regardless of victory or defeat, in the next four days, only Zhang Fei often invited Guan Yu in front of the camp gate, and Jiao Touch did not have any movement, and it seemed that he was not in a hurry at all.

In Cao Ying's royal tent, Cao Cao, who was wearing a royal robe, sat on the main seat with a solemn face, looked at the civil and military forces on both sides, frowned and said: "The situation of Dayan is already obvious, that is, the lonely death is entrusted here, and the main attack battlefield is placed in Xuzhou, although there is full funding from King Xiang, Lone no longer has to worry about food and grass, even if Guandu is on guard for half a year, Lone is not afraid, but if Xuzhou is lost, Guandu will become a Jedi instead, just yesterday I received the news, Zhongqing also knows that Jiangdong Tiger General Zhou Tai was killed by Yuan Ping's design, and King Wu has transferred people, Lone has already let Zang Ba pass, but he is still a little worried."

"What the king said is very true, Yuan Ping, the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, the god of war of the Yuan family, is indeed terrifying, such a short period of time, it has dealt a heavy blow to Pyeongchang, and General Xiahou Yuan guarded against Zhang Liao, which also makes people worry, now my five countries urgently need a victory" Xun You nodded.

"Ziyuan, how much do you know about the focus touch" At this time, Cheng Yu suddenly looked at Xu You and asked, battlefield killing, in addition to troops, grain and grass, etc., it is the boss who fights.

Xu You smiled bitterly and said: "Today's Jiao Touch, is no longer the little captain he used to be, you have seen him before, he is still very impulsive in character, and he is greedy for power and lustful, shielding cronies, compared to Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan's personal generals, you originally thought that he was not a good life, but he didn't expect to be trained by Yuan Xi, the last time they met, you almost didn't recognize it, whether it was his eyes and temperament, there have been earth-shaking changes, I saw that as the first general, he was so respected in Dayan's place, is indeed content with the battle of Xuzhou and dragged the king, which shows that he is extraordinary"

"Ziyuan said well, this Jiao Touch may not have any amazing military talents, nor peerless martial arts, but he heard that he is dedicated to serving Yuan Xi, not fighting for merit, not impatient, stable and calm, this seems simple, but it is actually very difficult, because the generals are crisscrossing the battlefield, they all want to make immortal achievements, and it is this idea that will indeed give the enemy a chance, but Jiao Touch does not, now, if he does not move, as long as the food and grass are ready, it will be a year, in Guandu, Lone can't eat him, and Lone does not have this condition" Cao Cao said solemnly.

"King Yan, from Yiliang's point of view, there are only two ways to this situation, first: such as the first battle of Guandu, break the grain and grass" At this time, Kuai Liang clenched his fists and said.

"This is impossible, it was able to succeed back then, it was completely due to many reasons, but it is indispensable" Xun You immediately shook his head and said, the first time was because Xu You rebelled against Cao and named the location of the grain and grass, the second was because Yuan Shao's command was abnormal, and there was no assistance, and the third was because Guo Tu framed and forced the general to rebel, and now Dayan is united, and there will never be such a chance again.

"Then we can only fight head-on, defeat Jiao Touch, and revitalize the overall situation," Kuai Liang said seriously.

"How is this possible, Jiao Touch's troops are more than our army, and the military camp is strong, and it uses crossbow arrows, cupola cannons and other siege weapons, if it is attacked, it is estimated that it will be the coalition forces of our two countries that will be defeated" Hearing this, Cai Mao immediately objected, his soldiers and horses could not be sacrificed in vain.

"It's not about storming the opponent's barracks, it's about letting Dayan attack," Kuai Liang sneered.

"Ziliang, what are your plans" Cao Cao immediately said curiously.

"This is a bit ungentlemanly, but now there is no way, please ask the lord to write a letter of resignation, talk about the death of Tie Xianhu" After Kuai Liang finished speaking, he slowly lowered his head.

"What" The civil and military forces were stunned, and the generals were indeed a little disdainful, using a dead man to stimulate Dayan was really unheroic.

"I guess it doesn't work! After all, there are still Tian Yu, Feng Ji, Xin Ping and other strategists around Jiao Touch," Cheng Yu frowned.

"It's better if this strategy is useful, even if it doesn't affect the overall situation, but once it is useful, it is indeed stopped by Tian Yu and others, then Jiao Touch will inevitably be displeased, so that the civil and military discord will inevitably lead to chaos" Kuai Liang smiled.

Cao Cao's eyes froze, and after being silent for a while, he slowly stood up, and said with some shame: "For the death of Tie Xianhu, in fact, Lone is also very surprised, especially after understanding what has happened, he admires him even more, but now only by achieving victory can he revitalize the overall situation, and can also inspire the major armies, if he can defeat Dayan because of this, Lone will continue to seal Tie Xianhu in the future."

"Wang Yingming, Zirou's method can indeed be implemented, after all, extraordinary times use extraordinary strategies, and there is no other way now" Xun You supported, strategists are also people, and strategies can only be used at a specific time, place, and situation.

"Tie Xianhu and Jiao Touch are both generals of Yuan Xi's palace, it is said that Tie Xianhu often regards Jiao Touch as his brother, if he stimulates Jiao Touch, he may really be able to seize the opportunity, and the minister will also reconsider" Xu You also agreed.

"Okay, this letter will be written by myself," Cao Cao waved his hand.

"No!"

"By the way, where is Yun Chang" Cao Cao suddenly asked with concern after looking around.

"King, Yun Chang is practicing martial arts in the school field, and the last general will call him" Xu Chu replied immediately.

Cao Cao immediately shook his head and sighed with a sigh: "Taoyuan is righteous, the world hears of it, as soon as Xuande dies, the two generals will be divided, let him go!" ”

"No"

In the afternoon of the same day, the gate of the Cao camp was wide open, and a messenger rushed towards the military camp opposite, and when he came to the camp gate less than 30 meters, he shouted at the barracks: "The king of Wei has a letter to the Da Yan Jiao Shuai"
