"My lord, good news, Yuzhou has been pacified."

Cheng Yu smiled and walked quickly towards Cao Cao, and shouted before he entered the inner room.

"Yuzhou's victory, isn't it expected?"

Cao Cao looked at Cheng Yu and said lightly, although he did not blame, but it could still show that Cao Cao was a little displeased.

"It's reckless, as the lord said, it's indeed expected." After Cheng Yu listened to Cao Cao's words, he smiled a little embarrassed and said.

"Well, taking Yuzhou has finally achieved its goal." Cao Cao got up, and then spoke again.

"Now that Yuan Shao and His Majesty have been fighting at the boundary bridge for more than a few months, it won't be long before we send troops."

"When does the lord plan to send troops?" Cheng Yu said after listening to Cao Cao's words.

Today, he came to report the good news to Cao Cao, and to discuss the crusade against Yuan Shao.

Moreover, this crusade against Yuan Shao is the focus of today, and it is also something that must be solved.

"Liu Wei and Yuan Shao must have a battle, and by then, I will send troops." Cao Cao looked at Cheng Yu and said with a smile.

Cheng Yu naturally knew why Cao Cao chose this way, because Cao Cao's attack on Yuan Shao this time was not the territory, but Liu Xie, the king of Chen Liu.

So take advantage of this opportunity, then they can directly send troops to Jizhou, and they don't need to participate in the Battle of Jieqiao.

Most of Yuan Shao's army has already been transferred to Jieqiao to confront Liu Wei, so there will definitely be insufficient men and horses guarding Jizhou.

In this way, conquering Jizhou is also not a difficult task for Cao Cao.

"But my lord, in this case, if Your Majesty fails to make it, what will happen when the lord sends troops?" Cheng Yu said with some concern.

Although Cao Cao's idea is very good, if Liu Wei can't hold it at that time, it is not impossible.

"Don't worry, I'm in control." After Cao Cao heard Cheng Yu's words, he frowned and then spoke again.

If there was really an accident at that time, and Liu Wei showed signs of defeat and retreat, then he would definitely send troops.

However, Cao Cao felt that such an opportunity was probably not much, because it would not be the case in the current situation.

"Zhongde, how is Liu Xie's situation in Jizhou now?" Cao Cao looked at Cheng Yu and spoke again.

"Now there are a few old ministers who know that Duke Cao is going to welcome King Chen Liu, so they have begun to persuade King Chen Liu."

Cheng Yu listened to Cao Cao's inquiry and then returned to the Dao.

Since the beginning of the crusade against Yuan Shao, Cao Cao has already asked him to start doing things on King Chenliu's side.

Let those old ministers know Cao Cao's intentions, and persuade Liu Xie has been going on.

"Well, that's fine, if King Chen Liuwang insists on not complying at that time, then I will have to take other means."

Cao Cao nodded and said quite satisfied, but his tone couldn't help but increase a little when he said the latter.

If it weren't for Yuan Shao, he would have already coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes.

How could there be so many incidents, but Cao Cao also understood that he was more powerful now than before.

This can be regarded as making up for himself, otherwise I am afraid that he will be like Yuan Shao.

...

Jieqiao, three days have passed, and Yuan Shao's army is still calling for battle in front of the battle every day, but it is the same as before, just a small number of soldiers.

"Fengxiao, this Yuan army has been in battle for nearly half a month, why is this Pang Tong still inactive?"

In the camp, Liu Wei was a little puzzled, so Liu Wei looked at Guo Jia and asked.

"Pang Tong's plan this time must be to know that our army will definitely be able to see through it, so he deliberately did this, so that our army can know that Yuan Jun has a plan."

"But there is no way to know when he will do it." Guo Jia said.

"It's hard to prevent." Huang Zhong said after listening to Guo Jia's words.

"Now that two-thirds of our army's food and grass baggage have been transferred, I'm afraid the rest can only be given to Pang Tong."

Guo Jia said after listening to Huang Zhong's words.

If Pang Tong was just a surprise attack, even if he succeeded, it would be impossible for him to retreat immediately.

But if it's a fire that burns grain and grass, then everything is possible.

As the saying goes, if the three armies have not moved, the grain and grass go first, and once their own grain and grass are cut off, then they will not be able to fight again.

Therefore, Guo Jiagao concluded that Pang Tong's goal was definitely to pay for grain and grass.

Since you want to do what you want, then you naturally need to make sacrifices.

However, once the calculation is completed, although some grain and grass will be lost at that time, it can also achieve this final victory, which is also a cost-effective thing.

"General Hansheng is good at being prepared, although it is a plan, but we also need to be realistic." Guo Jia looked at Huang Zhong and said with a smile.

"Yes." Huang Zhong replied after listening to Guo Jia's words.

"According to Fengxiao's words, everything is ready now, just waiting for Pang Tong to take the bait." After Liu Wei listened, he looked at Guo Jia and said with a smile.

"No, tomorrow Your Majesty can lead the army to battle, confuse Pang Tong, and lure him to send troops as soon as possible."

Liu Wei nodded, he naturally had no opinion on this point.

The next day, Liu Wei led everyone out of the barracks early in the morning and went to Yuan Shao's village to call for battle.

"Report, lord, before our army sent someone to call for battle today, Liu Wei had already led the Han army to call for battle."

Liu Wei led the army to call the battle, and naturally someone hurriedly told Yuan Shao.

"This Liu Wei dared to take the initiative to come to call the battle, and someone came to follow me to fight."

After hearing this, Yuan Shao immediately said, now he has no scruples.

"The lord doesn't need to be in a hurry, this time the Han army came to call the battle, which is a happy event."

Pang Tong looked at Yuan Shao at this time and said with a smile.

"Happy event? Now that the Han army has already provoked the door, how can there be a happy event? After Guo Tu heard this, he looked at Pang Tong and said.

"What do you mean by that?" Yuan Shao also frowned and asked very puzzled.

Although Pang Tong said that he didn't want to deal with this Guo Tu, he could not explain it to this Guo Tu, but Yuan Shao opened his mouth, so he naturally couldn't help but say it.

"Guo Jiading has seen through it, our army calls for battle every day, and there must be abnormalities, but I don't know when, and I don't know what our army is trying to do, so I sent troops here today."

Pang Tong smiled and analyzed.

Yuan Shao didn't say anything more when he saw that Pang Tong was so confident, but asked, "Since this is the case, then whether our army should fight at this time." ”

Now in the battle of the boundary bridge, he can only put his hope on Pang Tong.

As long as the calculation is successful, according to Pang Tong, it will be able to burn the grain and grass of the Han army, and at that time, the Han army will inevitably be unable to fight again and can only withdraw.

Once Liu Wei withdraws his troops, then he will have a chance to breathe.

"Naturally, I want to fight, and Liu Wei is out of battle at this time, which is in line with my heart." Pang Tong nodded with a smile and said.

Yuan Shao saw Pang Tong say this, so he nodded, and no longer hesitated, so he immediately led the people out of Dazhai.

"Liu Wei, did you lead the army to come today to lead the people to surrender?"

Yuan Shao stood in front of the formation, and then looked at Liu Wei and said mockingly.

At this time, for him, the person he hated the most was Liu Bian, if it wasn't for Liu Bian, how could he have fallen to the point where he is today.

With his life experience of the fourth world and the third duke, coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes is the greatest advantage in this troubled era.

But now everything has come to naught, and the land of Jizhou is now in danger.

"Yuan Benchu, now you are at the end of your rope, and I have no intention of saying this." Liu Wei said indifferently.

When he came to call for the battle, Guo Jia had already told himself that if Yuan Shao did not come out to fight, then it would mean that Pang Tong failed to win.

But now that Yuan Shao has already gone to war, it means that Pang Tong has already taken the bait.

In this way, it seems that this strategy has already become half of it, so for Yuan Shao's words, Liu Wei naturally will not take it to heart.

"Shi Yuan, the lord has already led the army to battle?" In the big tent, Fu Zhi came to the big tent at this time and looked at Pang Tong and asked.

Pang Tong nodded, but did not deny it.

"Shi Yuan, don't you think this matter is a little strange?" Frustrated Zhu frowned and looked at Pang Tong and asked rhetorically.
