【194】Battle of Guandu (M)
When Cao Cao saw Xu You, his first sentence was not to talk about the situation straight to the point, but to talk to Xu You first about the things he had done when he was young.
Xu You also felt very strange, this October night was actually quite cold, Cao Cao actually came out to greet him barefoot, not to mention anything else, just by Cao Cao's actions, it proves that he is indeed in trouble now.
Xu You thought to himself: It's okay, I'll try Cao Cao first.
The two entered the big tent, and Ma Xiaoquan stood behind the screen and listened.
Cao Cao and Xu You talked about their youth again, and they talked and laughed for a while, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Speaking of stealing other people's brides with Yuan Shao, Zhang Miao and others, both of them laughed nonstop.
Suddenly, Xu You seemed to be a different person, and said sternly: "Meng De, Yuan Shaobing has many generals, how are you going to deal with him, oh yes, how long can you hold out on to this military ration?" ”
Cao Cao was taken aback, and said in his heart: This demon road is really clever, Xu You seems to be obviously tempting me, well, okay, then I will do what the demon Dao says.
Cao Cao smiled and said, "Ouch, this is absolutely no problem, my military rations can last for a year!" ”
When Xu You heard this, he smiled: "A year? Mengde, I'm afraid you're laughing, right? ”
Cao Cao was a little unhappy and ridiculed, but Lord Shangxian had instructed him before that his expression must be real and rich.
Cao Cao said with a stern face: "Since Ziyuan (Xu You's alias, which can also be regarded as a word) said so, then in fact, it can still last for half a year." ”
When Cao Cao said this, he deliberately rolled his eyes twice, Xu You saw it in his eyes, but he couldn't stop sneering in his heart.
Xu You thought to himself: Okay, you Cao Agui, you still don't tell me the truth, okay, I'll ask you again, if you don't tell the truth again, I'll leave.
Xu You said loudly: "Don't you want to win against Yuan Shao, Meng De?" Why are you so dishonest? ”
Cao Cao saw that Xu You was angry, and muttered in his heart: This dog's demon way, I have to say something false, this Xu You is obviously here to help me, why do you want to be so tempted, I really don't understand.
Thinking about it, at this point, Cao Cao still followed Ma Xiaoquan's instructions and gave Xu You a solid foundation.
Cao Cao said: "Hey, Ziyuan, in fact, there is barely a month's worth of grain and grass, and for this, I am also worried." ”
When Xu You heard this, he nodded with satisfaction and said: "Meng De, what can you do in a month, if you have proper tactics, let alone a month, it is 10 days, it is possible to win Yuan Shao." ”
Cao Cao was excited in his heart, but he still pretended to be polite on his face: "Ziyuan, you are laughing, how can it be, Yuan Shaoqiang and I have too much." ”
Xu You waved his hand: "Don't grow the ambition of others, destroy your own prestige!" ”
The implication of Xu You's words is obvious, that is, he has now regarded himself as Cao Cao's person.
Cao Cao is not stupid, as soon as he heard Xu You's statement, he hurriedly thanked Xu You, and promised on the spot that if he had the opportunity, he would get Xu You a galloping horse made of gold.
Xu You's greed for money is famous, as soon as Cao Cao promised, Xu You's eyes immediately lit up and continued: "Mengde, I came this time, not for anything else, but to bring good news to Mengde." ”
When Cao Cao heard this, he almost jumped up with joy, but Lord Shangxian had instructed that his expression must be real, so Cao Cao secretly pinched his thighs and said politely: "Ziyuan, you see what you said, come, let's have a drink." ”
After the two touched a glass, Xu You put down the wine glass and said: "Most of Yuan Shao's military rations are stored in Wuchao, and the defenders are not guarded, if Meng De you send an elite army to attack Wuchao and burn Yuan Shao's grain and grass, then Yuan Shao will definitely be in chaos." ”
At this point, Xu You can be regarded as saying the true purpose of his coming.
Cao Cao put down his previous politeness and asked Xu Yu sternly: "Who is the guard of the black nest?" ”
"Chun Yuqiong!"
Behind the screen, Ma Xiaoquan laughed when he heard it.
As soon as Xu You heard someone's laughter, he shouted in shock: "Who? ”
Ma Xiaoquan slowly walked out from behind the screen.
Cao Cao stepped forward and politely introduced Ma Xiaoquan to Xu You: "Hehe, Ziyuan, this is Lord Shangxian!" Lord Immortal, this is"
Ma Xiaoquan waved his hand: "No need to introduce, Xu You, I know, I also heard what he just said." ”
Xu You looked at Ma Xiaoquan vigilantly and asked Cao Cao: "Meng De, what do you mean by this?" ”
Cao Cao explained: "Ziyuan doesn't need to panic, Ziyuan came to help me today, and Lord Shangxian had already calculated it a few days ago." ”
When Xu You heard this, he pouted and said: "Cao Apu, no, you, aren't you the most unbeliever among us, how can you believe the words of a purple-haired demon like this?" ”
Cao Cao blushed and said, "Ziyuan, this is the Immortal Lord, not the Demon Dao." ”
Ma Xiaoquan laughed: "Xu You, you came to take refuge in Xiao Cao, firstly, because your plan was not adopted by Yuan Benchu, and secondly, but your family broke the law in Yecheng and was tried and arrested?" ”
Xu You was shocked when he heard this.
The second thing Xu You won't say anything, after all, Yecheng is so big, it's not a big deal to leak a little rumor, but the plan he offered to Yuan Shao before is only known to a few people present, besides, those people are Yuan Shao's loyal soldiers and ministers.
Xu You swallowed his saliva and asked resignedly: "Since this is the case, then you say, what plan did I offer to Yuan Shao?" ”
Ma Xiaoquan stretched out his hand and said slowly: "Sneak attack on Xuchang." ”
When Cao Cao heard this, he threw the wine glass he had just picked up to the ground.
Cao Cao looked at Xu You with a sweat on his head, but Xu You looked at Ma Xiaoquan with a sweat.
Ma Xiaoquan waved his hand, looked at the two of them, and comforted: "Don't worry, since Xu Yu is now Xiao Cao's person, I believe that Yuan Shao has not adopted your advice, right?" ”
Xu You nodded.
Cao Cao wiped his sweat and said, "Fortunately, Yuan Shao didn't adopt Ziyuan's construction." Otherwise, I'm afraid I'd have been a fiasco. ”
Xu You nodded.
Ma Xiaoquan said: "Okay, everything that needs to be said is finished, Xiao Cao, go and prepare, the matter of the sneak attack on the black nest, this immortal sees that you should go in person." ”
Cao Cao nodded: "I also have this intention!" ”
Ma Xiaoquan hummed and walked out of the camp with his hands behind his back.
After Ma Xiaoquan left, Xu You came to Cao Cao's side and asked, "Meng De, who is that purple-haired man?" ”
Cao Cao exhaled: "A mysterious person, let's call him Lord Shangxian." ”
"Then will he be unfavorable to you?"
Cao Cao shook his head: "I don't know, but I'm sure he won't do it." ”
"Why?"
Cao Cao took out a pair of white scrolls from his arms and unfolded them for Xu You to see.
Xu You looked at it and exclaimed, "I've seen this thing!" ”
Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard this: "Where have you seen it?" ”
Xu You scratched his scalp: "Yuan Shao got such a thing some time ago, and he has been playing with it all the time, and now Yuan Shao will take it out as long as he is fine!" ”
Cao Cao's eyes lit up: "Ziyuan, what you said is true?" ”
Xu You's eyes also lit up: "What did I lie to you, Mengde, what is this?" Isn't it worth the money? ”
Cao Cao pursed his lips and withdrew the white scroll: "I don't know if it's worth it, I just know that Lord Shangxian is looking for this thing, if I can get this thing and give it to him, then my relationship with Lord Shangxian should be closer." ”
Xu Yu sighed, but he made up his mind in his heart, if he was lucky enough to get this thing, he would definitely take it to the immortal first
In the evening of the next day, Cao Cao personally led 5,000 elite soldiers to march towards the Black Nest, and each soldier who went out with him carried a bundle of dry firewood on his back.
In order to hide people's eyes, Cao Jun wore the banner of Yuan Shao's headquarters soldiers, wearing Yuan Jun's military uniforms, as long as he didn't speak, he really looked like Yuan Jun's headquarters soldiers.
Ma Xiaoquan was idle and bored, thinking of Chun Yuqiong, who he hadn't seen for a long time, and decided to go to Wuchao to have a look, but in order not to trouble Cao Cao, Ma Xiaoquan decided to act alone and go first.
Black Nest.
Chun Yuqiong opened a jar of water and wine boredly, picked it up and drank two large sips.
"Damn, Lao Tzu is a good general, and he was sent to guard the army food in a place where birds don't, I'm really angry!"
Chun Yuqiong said, picked up the wine jar and poured two sips.
was drinking sullen wine alone, when suddenly a voice sounded outside the tent: "Zhong Jian (Chun Yuqiong's character), don't come to harm?" ”
Chun Yuqiong threw down the wine jar with a bang, pulled out her sword, and yelled: "Who? ”
A purple-haired man appeared in front of Chun Yuqiong.
Chun Yuqiong looked at the purple-haired man in front of her, thought for a moment, and then burst out laughing.
At this time, the soldiers outside the tent broke in with weapons, and Chun Yuqiong waved his hand: "Let's all go out, so people are here, don't panic!" ”
After the soldiers went out, Chun Yuqiong laughed and greeted Ma Xiaoquan in front of him.
"Are you the boy surnamed Ma on the bracelet gift of the Hua family?"
Ma Xiaoquan responded politely: "It's Ben Xian!" ”
Chun Yuqiong laughed and said: "I heard that Ma Gongzi is a god, I don't know if this matter is true or false?" ”
Ma Xiaoquan smiled, stretched out his right hand, and as soon as his spirit was concentrated, a green flame burst out of his palm.
Chun Yuqiong took a breath of cool air, but said: "It's just a small skill of carving insects!" ”
Ma Xiaoquan walked to the weapon rack, grabbed a knife casually, and then he gently clamped the back of the knife with two fingers.
Chun Yuqiong's eyes widened, watching the other party melt a steel knife with his bare hands.
This time, Chun Yuqiong believed it.
"Wow~" Chun Yuqiong stepped forward and arched his hand to Ma Xiaoquan, "Brother Ma is really a fairy, but I don't know if Brother Ma is here, something?" ”
Ma Xiaoquan clapped his hands: "It's okay, I just came to see you!" ”
Chun Yuqiong asked: "By the way, the eldest lady of the Hua family, Hua Yuexin, I don't know where she is now?" ”
Ma Xiaoquan smiled: "My wife, of course it's in my house!" ”
When Chun Yuqiong heard this, her heart was sour, and she pouted and said, "Oh, you came all the way to make me jealous after a long time?" ”
Ma Xiaoquan waved his hand: "Where is it, I won't talk about the specifics first, Zhong Jian, I'm here to remind you, Cao Cao is coming to attack the Black Nest tonight!" ”
