Speaking of which, now by Yuan Shao's side, the strategists who went all the way with him to this place are only Xu You, Feng Ji, and Guo Tu, Xun Chen was left in Liyang to garrison, in case Zhang He and others are defeated by Gao Ye, Xun Chen is the retreat of Zhang He and others, and it is also the next place to block Gao Ye's soldiers and horses. Tian Feng and Fu Zhu, one was imprisoned in Yecheng and the other was imprisoned in Liyang, although their lives were safe for the time being, but who can understand this feeling of loss? As for the trial, he was originally just ordered to guard Yecheng, who would have thought that Fu Zhu would suddenly be imprisoned by Yuan Shao? Fu Zhu is the governor of the army, and he is considered a high authority in the army. Guo Tu and Feng Ji are not more upright than Frustrated, and Yuan Shao knows very well in his heart that the two of them can't do this matter of supervising the army. It is precisely because of this that Yuan Shao had to transfer the trial and matching, firstly, to have one more person to give advice, and secondly, to calm the army's heart.

Although the initial plan of the trial was attacked by Cao Jun's trebuchet and failed, he had to admit that his plan had dealt a very effective blow to Cao Jun in the early stage. No one thought that the trebuchet could be so powerful, and there was naturally nothing to complain about if it failed. Now that the trial has a plan in his heart, Yuan Shao is naturally overjoyed when he hears this, and the big account is even more about the trial pace. The judge immediately offered a plan, and ordered the sergeant to hide behind the dirt mountain, dig the soil with an iron shovel, and secretly dig a tunnel, which went straight into Cao's camp.

Yuan Shao was immediately overjoyed, and immediately ordered someone to make a plan, and in an instant, the dust flew after the dirt mountain, and the school had already reported that Cao Cao had gone. Cao Cao was inspecting all kinds of equipment in Liu Ye's logistics camp at the moment, after all, the thunderbolt car the day before yesterday really made everyone in Cao's camp feel bright. Now Cao Cao just wants to come here in person and take a good look at whether there are any good things in this ordnance camp that has been ignored by himself.

Hearing the report from the junior colonel, Liu Ye on the side smiled lightly and said, "Yuan Jun's skills are poor." Yuan Shao couldn't attack the light and attack the dark, and wanted to dig the tunnel, so he entered the camp with this and caught our army off guard. ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he also smiled: "Ziyang knows this plan, but there is a way to break it?" ”

"The lord can order the sergeant to dig a long trench around the camp, and the Yuan army's tunnel is useless. The small battalion on the west side can also be concocted in the same way, which can be preserved. In fact, as Liu Ye expected, after Cao Cao left the logistics camp and returned to the village, it was a digging. Yuan's ambush road finally advanced to the vicinity of the camp, but it could not enter, and the army was wasted.

Yuan Shao, who was in the camp, also sighed when he heard this, and even praised Cao Camp There are indeed capable people. In the big tent, even the trial was dignified, but he didn't expect that he offered two plans in a row, but he was broken by Cao Jun twice in a row. I used to think that Tian Feng and Yuan Shao's strategy was quite reasonable, but now it seems that his lord sees it accurately. Nearly seven months have passed since this battle was fought last year, and Cao Cao is still competing with his own soldiers and horses in Guandu. Just with this group of strategists under Cao Cao, and with such a powerful weapon in Cao Cao's hands. If Cao Cao is given a few more years to develop, I am afraid that Cao Cao will have to fight in Hebei.

Thinking of this, the judge also sighed, sure enough, Cao Cao is not as good as Gongsun Zhan, he is really not an easy guy to deal with. However, the judge sighed and sighed, and then got up and gave up his hand, and said to Yuan Shao: "Lord, for today's plan, I am afraid that it will be difficult for Cao Cao to attack easily, and now there are two sons and General Zhang He in the east of Gao Ye, and if you want to come to nothing, why don't you send an army to the west to attack Cao Ren in Hanoi." As soon as Cao Ren was defeated, the soldiers and horses of the state could drive straight in, or attack Yingchuan, or they could come to Guandu and the lord to attack Cao Cao's army before and after, and the battle could be won. ”

When Yuan Shao heard this, before he could answer, Guo Tu on the side laughed first and said: "If the lord wants to defeat Cao Cao, why do you need to merge the soldiers and horses." There is a plan to defeat Cao Cao and capture Guandu. ”

Yuan Shao was about to agree to the plan of trial and matching, and divided an army to attack Cao Ren, when he suddenly heard what Guo Tu said, he was immediately overjoyed, especially the sentence "Why do you need to merge with the state soldiers and horses", but also said to Yuan Shao's heart. Speaking of which, Yuan Shao had nearly 400,000 troops at this time, although there was damage, but in terms of strength, he was still much stronger than Cao Cao. But even so, he still didn't want Cao Cao to block Guandu, which was not a loss for the arrogant Yuan Shao. After all, he has such an advantage, and he has not been able to take Cao Cao after seven months of fighting, but Cao Cao has fought an even match with himself with so many soldiers and horses in his hands. If he still has to rely on the soldiers and horses of the state to defeat Cao Cao in the end, doesn't it mean that Cao Cao is much stronger than himself?

Therefore, hearing Guo Tu's words, Yuan Shao hurriedly said: "What is the wisdom of the public rule, I would like to hear it in detail." ”

Speaking of which, Guo Tu is also quite a little congested, although he is Yuan Shao's minister of Yuancong, but since Yuan Shao took Jizhou, Tian Feng, Frustration, Trial, and Xu Yu are all above him. Guo Tu never thought that his ability was inferior to these people, and the desire to overwhelm them in his heart became stronger day by day. This time in the battle with Cao Cao, when he was still in Yecheng, he seized the opportunity and completely squeezed Tian Feng out of the center of power. At the dawn of the sun, he tried his best to get rid of the frustration. I thought that if I went to the post of supervisor, I would definitely be able to replace the frustrated professor and serve as the supervisor of the army, but who would have thought that Yuan Shao would actually recruit the trial from Yecheng again. Now the trial and match are offered two plans in a row, although it is wonderful, but in the end it was still cracked by Cao Jun. Now the third plan of the trial is not bad, if he really makes it happen, he is in Yuan Shao's camp, I am afraid that he will be under his trial for the rest of his life. With this reason, Guo Tu hurriedly choked, and Guo Tu was quite confident in this plan in his heart, so he spoke.

Yuan Shao asked, Guo Tu naturally gave his hand, and said eloquently: "The plan to supervise the army is also a clever plan, but that Cao Ren is also a famous general of the Cao army, if it is not for the work of several months, I am afraid that it will be difficult to defeat this person." This strategy is just right to use at this time, and it will definitely help the lord defeat Cao Cao's army in front of him. ”

Yuan Shao waved his hand and said: "Zhengnan's plan, I have my own plans in my heart, and the public doesn't need to say much." ”

Hearing this, Guo Tu hurriedly responded: "Yes, lord." Then he cleared his throat and said to the people in the tent: "Since our army arrived in Guandu, we have fought with Cao's army more than a dozen times, and in general, it is considered a dead end. But after all, our army is several times inferior to Cao's army, which is the biggest advantage of our army. Now that Cao Cao personally led the troops, set up camp in Guandu, and built a small camp on the west side, garrisoned by the general, echoing with his main camp from afar, leaning on the momentum of the horns, it seems to be as stable as Mount Tai, but this is precisely where his flaws lie. ”

Hearing this, the judge on the side frowned slightly and said: "Although the Cao army is divided into troops, the two camps echo each other, no matter which one is attacked, the other camp can go to the rescue, or even attack our army's camp." The Chinese army is guarded by Cao Cao himself, and the small village on the west side is also garrisoned by the famous generals of the Cao army, Li Dian, Le Jin and Pan Zhang, to say that there are flaws......"

The judge said this, and was suddenly surprised. Seeing that the judge looked like this, Guo Tu smiled lightly and said: "The prison army also thought about it, Cao Jun's biggest flaw is that he has too few soldiers and horses. It is true that this arrangement made it impossible for our army to surround the Cao army's camp, nor could it attack one of the camps with peace of mind. But with the strength of our army, even if the two villages attack together, there can be superior forces in both places, so what is there to fear? ”

Yuan Shao also nodded when he heard this: "The plan of the public rule is to ask our army to come out together and attack Cao Ying?" ”

Guo Tu shook his head slightly and said, "If it's so simple, how can you say it's a clever plan." The lord can first send a group of soldiers and horses, under the banner of General Wenchou, to attack the western camp of the Cao army. General Wen Chou is my famous general in Hebei, and he is also excellent in martial arts, if Cao Cao knew that it was General Wen Chou who went to attack the camp, he would be terrified in his heart. Our army has a large number of soldiers and horses, and Cao Cao will never send troops to attack our camp and carry out the plan of encircling Wei and saving Zhao. Thinking about it, Cao Cao will definitely send a brave general to lead the troops to save the western camp, and our army can send another general to ambush on the road, so that the western camp can go down. ”

Yuan Shao nodded, and then said: "The public sent two generals to attack the western camp under the banner of Wen Chou, presumably to let Wen Chou lead the troops to fight Cao Jun Dazhai." Also, if Cao Cao heard that Xizhai was attacked by Wen Chou, I think he would definitely send Zhao Yun there. In this way, you can calmly attack the village. ”

"The lord is wise!" Hearing this, Guo Tu hurriedly praised, "When Cao Cao sent Zhao Yun to rescue Xizhai, the lord let General Wen Chou kill into Cao's camp, then this village will be broken!" ”

Yuan Shao nodded frequently when he heard this, but the judge on the side shook his head and said: "It's a clever plan to attack the east and the west, but Cao Cao is cunning by nature and is better at using soldiers, how can Cao Cao not see through such a strategy?" ”

Guo Tu smiled when he heard this: "What can you do if you see through it?" If he doesn't save Xizhai, then the horn will inevitably not be able to hold, and our army will destroy him a big village, which is also a big victory. If he divides his troops to rescue, even if the battalion is prepared, with the courage of General Wenchou and the strength of our army, Cao Cao will inevitably be difficult to resist. My plan is not a conspiracy, but a real conspiracy, so as long as Cao Cao wants to hold Guandu, he will have to fight. ”

The judge nodded: "This is also possible, but General Wen Chou is the sharp blade of the whole army, and he must not be dragged in the army by the enemy generals." The lord can order a group of generals to accompany General Wen Chou, General Wen Chou only needs to kill Cao Cao's Chinese army tent, and if he encounters Cao General, he will be dragged by others. In this way, it should be foolproof. ”

When Yuan Shao heard this, he immediately laughed: "Haha, the public rule is really a clever plan!" Since this is the case, I think I will let Han Meng be the general, take Ma Yan and Zhang Yi, and lead the army to attack Naxizhai. The rest of the generals, except for Chun Yuqiong and Zhao Rui, who guarded the grain and grass, all followed Wen Chou to attack Cao Cao! When Yuan Shao said this, he immediately looked at the judge on the side and said: "In this battle, General Ben will naturally go to the front line in person, due south, and I will hand over the guards of the battalion to you." ”

When the judge heard this, he immediately surrendered his promise, and Yuan Shao looked at the people under the tent: "Prepare to attack, tonight, take Guandu!" ”[.]
