Xu You and Cao Cao haven't seen each other for almost a decade.

In the past, Yuan Shao served in the general He Jinfu, Cao Cao introduced Xu You to Yuan Shao, and later Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, Yuan Shao escaped from Luoyang, Xu You followed thousands of miles away, and this following was nearly twelve years!

"Cao Apu?!" Seeing someone coming, Xu You's half-gnawed chicken leg fell on the table.

Ah Pu is Cao Cao's milk name, they have known each other since childhood, in the past, when he was a teenager, Xu Yu called Cao Cao's milk name has been used to shouting, and at first glance today, the old habits naturally blurted out.

Hearing Xu You's shout, Cao Cao frowned a little. Now that he Cao Cao is a commonplace, his power is leaning towards the government and the opposition, and he is a powerful prince in the world, no one dares to call him Cao Cao's name. However, looking at Xu Yu's embarrassed image, Cao Cao was quickly relieved. If Xu You can help him overturn Yuan Shao this time, what does it matter if he calls him Cao Cao a few words?

"Ziyuan, why are you so embarrassed?" Walking to Xu You's side and looking carefully, Cao Cao asked.

At this time, Xu You's hair bun was half scattered, almost no different from a cape; There were several holes in the clothes on his body, and the sleeves and the bottom of the robe were wet, and I don't know if it was the morning dew that soaked the clothes, or if the river splashed when crossing the river. It is said that Xu You is one of the five strategists under Yuan Shao, even if he wants to defect to him Cao Cao and defect to Yuan Shao, he should not be so embarrassed.

Xu You smiled bitterly, walked to a washing shelf, washed his hands and face with the water in the copper basin, and then replied: "Early yesterday morning, a certain person was put in prison by the general Yuan Shao, and then escaped last night, riding a horse and ferry, this escape is hundreds of miles, when you escape to Brother Meng De, how can you not be embarrassed?" ”

Cao Cao was surprised: "Yuan Shao put you in prison?" What is the reason for this? ”

Cao Cao was really surprised.

It is said that as one of the five strategists under Yuan Shao, after so many years, Xu You's assistance to Yuan Shao is not insignificant. Moreover, Xu You's importance to Yuan Shao's group is also self-evident, such an important strategist, and at this critical moment, how could Yuan Shao cut off his arm and send Xu You to prison? That doesn't make sense!

"Could it be that this is a bitter meat trick, plus a trick to deceive?" Cao Cao groaned in his heart.

……

After drinking a bowl of tea, Xu You burped, and then said with a wry smile: "Brother Meng De doesn't know something, he was framed by someone!" ”

"Yesterday afternoon, Yuan Gong convened a meeting of all the civil and military forces, and suggested to Yuan Shao that he should gather hundreds of thousands of troops on the north bank of the river and make a posture of a decisive battle for the whole army to cross the river, so as to contain all the forces of Brother Meng De; Then he sent a general, led tens of thousands of iron horsemen to cross the river on a detour, and approached Xudu. In this way, the victory can be decided in one battle! ”

"Such a clever plan, Brother Meng De thinks, is there a mistake in the next one?" Xu Yu asked.

Hearing this, Cao Cao and Xun Yu were both shocked into a cold sweat.

Xu Yu had this plan, if Yuan Shao really adopted it and put it into practice immediately, he Cao Cao might really be defeated.

He Cao Cao is now short of food, if Yuan Shao puts on the appearance of preparing to cross the river for a decisive battle, Cao Cao must feel that "it is just what I want", and then concentrate all his forces and prepare for a decisive battle with Yuan Shao.

In this way, it really hits the plan.

Yuan Shao's army had many iron horses, and tens of thousands of iron horses crossed the river to the south in a detour, and it only took two days at most to approach the city of Xuchang. Xuchang only has three or five thousand old and weak people to defend the city, and it is impossible to defend it. If so, it is difficult for him Cao Cao to be undefeated!

Fortunately, it seems that Yuan Shao did not adopt Xu You's plan, and it seems that for some reason, he still wants to cure Xu You's crime!

Of course, whether Yuan Shao really wants to cure Xu You's sin depends on whether it is a bitter trick.

"Fortunately, Yuan Benchu didn't adopt Ziyuan's plan, otherwise I, Cao Cao, am only afraid that the corpse will be cold at the moment, right?" Cao Cao laughed.

However, Xu You smiled bitterly: "Yuan Benchu didn't adopt this plan, but he actually believed what Guo Tu said, saying that I Xu You is your brother Meng De's spy, and offering this plan is to let hundreds of thousands of Yuan soldiers get into the trap, it's really ridiculous!" ”

This explanation can be regarded as an answer to Cao Cao, and he Xu Yu was imprisoned by Yuan Shao.

Xu You naturally didn't dare to tell Cao Cao that at the critical moment of this great war, he Xu You actually coveted Yuan Shao's nearly 100,000 stone military rations.

Now, he Xu You wants to defect to Cao Cao, and he wants to be reused by Cao Cao, so he can't let Cao Cao know that he Xu You has a history of greed for ink and huge greed! Although it is said that the matter of embezzling 100,000 stone military rations was framed by others to Xu You, Xu You did not dare to tell Cao Cao, because the yellow mud fell into the crotch of his pants and could not be explained.

"This is the reason why Xu Yu was imprisoned by Yuan Shao?" Cao Cao couldn't believe it.

If he is Yuan Shao, Xu You offers such a good strategy, even if it is possible to fall into Cao Jun's trap, he should give it a try, how can he conclude that Xu You is his Cao Cao's spy without even executing it?

There is a contradiction between Xu You and Guo Tu, which Cao Cao has known for a long time.

He Cao Cao didn't have too many detailed spies in Jizhou, and it wasn't too easy to listen to all kinds of news in Jizhou. Therefore, it is not surprising that he knows that Xu You, Guo Tu, and Tian Feng have their own contradictions.

I can't say, the contradiction between these three people was originally sent by him Cao Cao to sow discord!

……

chatted for a while, only to hear Xu You say again: "Brother Meng De, there is something I hope Brother Meng De will tell you the truth." ”

"What?" Cao Cao asked.

"How many days of food do you have in Brother Mengde's army?" Xu Yu asked.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that Cao Mengde's army is short of food, but no one knows how big this gap is.

It must be known that he Xu Yu offered Yuan Shao a time to divide his troops to attack the odd time, which was based on Cao Cao's lack of food. If Cao Cao did not lack food, or if the shortage of grain and grass was not hateful, this plan of dividing troops to attack in a hurry would be greatly discounted.

If Cao Cao was not short of food, he would not be in a hurry to fight a decisive battle.

If so, Yuan Jun put on a decisive posture, and it is impossible to lure Cao Cao into being fooled.

If Cao Cao was not fooled, he would not have gathered all his forces, leaving the rear and along the Yellow River empty. In this way, the tens of thousands of iron horsemen who divided their troops to attack Xudu were really meat buns beating dogs, and there was no return!
