Chapter 974: Xu Yu Tou Cao
When Yuan's army crossed the river, Cao's army did not attack it, but watched from a distance.
Cao Jun's actions made Yuan Shao very puzzled.
He had already made arrangements to deal with Cao's attack, but things did not develop as he expected.
Looking at Cao Jun's camp, Yuan Shao asked the staff and generals on the side, "Everyone, what do you think Cao Cao wants to do?" ”
The frustrated man who was stripped of his military power did not say anything.
In his opinion, crossing the river itself is unwise.
The Cao army had already made arrangements on the south side of the riverbank, and although the army had an overwhelming advantage in numbers, it was not so easy to break through the Cao army!
Xu You also didn't say anything.
The previous proposal was vetoed by Yuan Shao, and he touched the ashes of his nose, he didn't want to make a fuss in front of everyone anymore.
The others were silent.
Only Feng Ji said to Yuan Shao: "Yuan Gong, Cao Cao must be afraid of you, he didn't dare to wave his army to kill our army when crossing the river......"
"I'm afraid it's not as simple as Yuantu says, right?" Fu Zhu finally couldn't help but say: "Cao Cao didn't send troops to come, it's just that he thinks it's better to send troops to attack than to let our army cross the Yellow River." That would have been a little more complete. ”
"When you say that, do you think that our army will be defeated?" Feng Ji asked with a fierce glare.
"I didn't say that our army would be defeated." "I just can't bear to be blinded by a group of villains around me. ”
"You can't say that." The words were serious, and Yuan Shao said in a round on the side: "It's all for Hebei, it's all colleagues, it's better to be tactful." ”
If it was Tian Feng and Yuan Shao said so, he would definitely want to contradict it.
After all, he is older, and he has to be a lot older.
He regretted it a little when he said those words, Yuan Shao played a round, of course he would not dwell on it any longer.
Feng Ji's face was red and white when he was scolded by him, although he was unwilling, but Yuan Shao stood up and spoke after all, and he could only endure it.
Frustrated and scolded Feng Ji, Guo Tu stepped forward and said to Yuan Shao: "Actually, what Yuan Tu and Fu Gong said is right, our army crossed the Yellow River and was not harassed by the enemy, it can be seen that Cao Cao is afraid, and it can also be seen that Cao Cao's army has another deployment......"
"Speaking of which, you didn't say anything." Yuan Shao glared at him: "Just say what you have, there's no need to beat around the bush like this." ”
"I just want to say that since it is not clear what the enemy wants to do, it is better to station and wait until it is clear before the decisive battle." Guo Tu said: "If Cao Cao is really afraid, then of course it is better." If it weren't for Cao Cao's fear, but because they had another plan, Yuan Gong would have had a response at that time. ”
"That makes sense." Yuan Shao nodded and said to everyone: "Pass the order, the army will be stationed on the spot, I want to see what Cao Cao is going to do." ”
After the crowd dispersed, Xu Yu returned to the tent.
He was just about to enter the tent when a guard ran over and whispered, "Duke Xu, Yecheng has sent a letter." ”
Hearing that it was a letter sent by Yecheng, Xu You knew that it was written by his family.
Smiling slightly, he asked the guard, "What is written in the letter?" ”
"He said that he wanted to ask Xu Gong to dismantle it himself." The guard replied.
The guard's response made Xu You feel as if something was wrong.
If it is an ordinary letter, he should not be allowed to open it himself, and the person who wrote the letter will also inform the sender of the main content of the letter, and they will dictate the outline.
The guards didn't know the content of the letter, so Xu You was a little puzzled.
He took the letter and read it hurriedly, and said to the guard: "I know what's going on, these people in my family just can't meet a thing." It's a big thing, and I specially wrote a letter to come. ”
"Does Duke Xu have any other instructions?" The guard asked.
"There's nothing to order, you go first." Xu You waved his hand.
The guards retreated, and Xu Yu entered the tent with the letter.
Entering the tent, after reading the letter, he clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
The letter was not written by his family, but sent to Guandu by other relatives.
The content of the letter is also that his family broke the law in Yecheng, and they were actually tried and sat together, most of them were beheaded in the city, and all the female relatives in the family were all used as official concubines.
As a Hebei staff, his house was raided......
Xu You originally planned to take the letter to Yuan Shao to seek justice.
can think about it, the trial is a celebrity around Yuan Shao, so he must have no fear to do these things.
Even if he went to sue, it was unlikely that anything would come of it.
After thinking about it, Xu You finally put his heart on the side and joined the Cao family!
Now that his family is gone, how can he still have any nostalgia for Hebei?
After nightfall, Xu Yu walked out of the tent.
When the two guards guarding outside the tent saw him come out, one of them beckoned, "Xu Gong hasn't rested yet?" ”
"The enemy army is not far away, how can I sleep?" Xu You said: "As a Hebei staff, I always have to do something for Yuan Gong. ”
"It's getting late, so it's better for Gong Xu to go to bed early." The guard said: "I don't know how important things the Yuan Guild will arrange for Xu Gong early tomorrow morning. ”
"You can talk." Xu You smiled slightly, and said to the guard: "I just go out for a walk to see the enemy's defenses, if Yuan Gong looks for me tomorrow, I will have something to deal with." ”
"What Xu Gong said is that I am too talkative." The guard hurriedly answered.
Xu You pretended to be fine, and walked to the edge of the barracks with his hands in his hands.
He is also a familiar face among the Yuan army, and the patrolling Yuan army did not come forward to check, thinking that he just couldn't sleep at night, so he deliberately walked around outside.
Since Yuan's army crossed the river, Cao's army has been much more heavily guarded than before.
Cao Shuo personally led a team of people to patrol the edge of the barracks.
As he was walking, a soldier ran over quickly: "Son-in-law, we found a person sneakily outside the business and was captured by his brothers. ”
"Who is it?" Cao Shuo asked.
"He said that his name was Xu You, and he was a staff member under Yuan Shao, and he specially came to present a good strategy to Yuan Gongjing to defeat the enemy." The soldier replied.
Previously, Cao Shuo had sent people to investigate whether the Wuchao had put Yuan Jun's grain and grass.
At that time, Fire Dance didn't find anything.
Later, many things happened, and Cao Shuo was busy and actually neglected this matter.
Hearing that Xu You was coming, Cao Shuo said with a smile on his face: "The opportunity to break through the Yuan family has finally arrived, bring him over to see me quickly." ”
Soon after the soldier took the order to leave, he brought a man to Cao Shuo.
This person strutted forward, although he was in the Cao Jun barracks, he looked like he was home.
Seeing Cao Shuo, he arched his hand and asked, "Zirong Gongzi, after a long absence, are you okay?" ”
Of course, Cao Shuo also recognized Xu You, he smiled and replied, "The Cao and Yuan families are at war, how could Xu Gong, as a staff member of the Yuan family, come here?" ”
