Yingchuan, Yuzhou......

"In the past few days, has Liu Biao made any moves there?" In the camp, the coach Xiahoudun was discussing with Xiahou Yuan, Li Dian, and the strategist Guo Jia.

Liu Biao's sudden proclamation as emperor, Cao Cao, who was the closest to him, was the first to get the news, for fear that Liu Biao and Yuan Shu would make a big move, so he hurriedly ordered Xiahou to pay attention to defense in Yingchuan.

"No, since my army was stationed in Yingyin, Yuan Shu has been standing still, and Yuan Shu often came to harass him in the past, but now there is no movement, I'm afraid it's a little bad."

Guo Jia said bitterly.

There are no spies, no intelligence, even if Guo Jia is so wise, he can only guess blindly.

Guo Jia's words landed, and Li Dian was also helpless.

When he first got the news of Liu Biao's proclamation as emperor a few days ago, Li Dian also personally led his troops to call for war from Yuan Shu's army stationed on the border of Yuzhou.

However, no matter how he provoked, the camp of Ji Ling, the general under Yuan Shu, was like a stagnant water, and he didn't move.

"Big brother, military advisor, why don't you let me take 10,000 soldiers and horses to attack the Jiling camp at night?" Seeing that everyone couldn't pay attention to it, Xiahou Yuan was a little anxious here.

"Okay, I'll go with you, now we don't have enough food and grass, and we really can't afford it......" Seeing that Xiahou Yuan had the intention of taking the initiative, Xiahou Yuan, who was also a little anxious, actually agreed in one bite, and thought about saying that he wanted to go together.

Yuzhou and Yanzhou have a big drought this year, although Cao Cao occupies a huge territory, but the real strength is not so strong, otherwise Cao Cao would have entered the division long ago. Now that Xiahoudun and others can sit here or Cao Cao Province is frugal, the grain and grass squeezed out from other places, if tens of thousands of troops continue to prepare for war, Yuzhou and Yanzhou may be dragged down.

"I'm afraid the enemy has already been prepared." Seeing that Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan were so belligerent, Guo Jia put forward a different opinion.

"Then according to the meaning of the military division, could it be that we wait, and we have to waste food with Yuan Shu here in vain?" Seeing that Guo Jia said that the night attack was inappropriate, Xiahoudun couldn't sit still.

"Yuan Shu is just a straw bag, why should the military advisor be so scruples? Let's go on a sneak attack, and maybe we'll be able to grab some food...... There is no major drought in Jingzhou and Sili, and now is the time for the autumn harvest! ”

"This ......" Guo Jia doesn't like the current situation very much, and he doesn't know anything about the place at all......

This means that it is impossible to take the initiative of the war into your own hands.

In this way, no matter how resourceful he Guo Jia is, he can't come up with anything out of thin air.

"Report!" At this moment, a scout suddenly walked into the camp tent and reported to Xiahoudun: "General Yu, my subordinates found traces of Yuan Shujun on a small road twenty miles away. ”

"Oh? Can you see clearly, it is indeed Yuan Shu's centaurs? Suddenly hearing that Yuan Shujun was dispatched, Xiahoudun was also a little surprised.

"Yes, Yuan Shujun's whereabouts are very secretive, looking at the destination, it seems to be a small town five miles away from here, I also saw a small group of people and horses with suspicious traces, and followed for a long time before we found Yuan Shujun's traces, and the number of people should be more than 10,000." The scout seems to be also an elite sentry in Cao's army, and the information he said is relatively accurate.

"Okay, you can retreat first, continue to keep an eye on this army, and report back as soon as you find any changes." After waving his hand to let the scout retreat, Xiahoudun said to the rest of the people: "I didn't expect that this Yuan Shu had been standing still, but it turned out that he wanted to be surprised, haha, now I can wait for a while." ”

"That's like Yuan Shu's style! We can rest assured! ”

"That town is still more than ten miles away from Yuan Shu's army, but only five miles away from our army, General Miaocai, you can first take a group of men and horses to the town to set up an ambush, and after it enters the town, you can fight from it, and then you will be able to win a big victory." Guo Jia thought about it, and there was no doubt, so he spoke.

"In this case, Ben will go." Seeing that Guo Jia, who was a military advisor, had no objections, Xiahou Tang got up and left the camp, ordered an army of 10,000, and rushed to the town five miles away.

"Strategist, what should we do?" Seeing that Xiahou Yuan personally led a large army to attack, Xiahou Yuan couldn't help but want to make meritorious contributions.

"In case Liu Biao has another trick, General Li, you take all the 800 cavalry in the camp and go to Sili for a turn, if Zhongmu is already prepared, you don't have to fight, just retreat immediately."

"Yes, the last general commands." Seeing that there was an opportunity to fight, Li Dian was naturally overjoyed, and hurriedly got up and hugged his fists in response, and then went out of the camp to gather soldiers and horses.

"Strategist, what about me?" Seeing that Xiahoudun and Li Dian had already gone to war, Xiahouyuan was also anxious.

"General Miaocai, you can personally lead a group of soldiers and horses to ambush in the dense forest outside the camp, if the enemy is coming, don't make a noise, wait for it to pass, and then follow and kill. As for the rest of the men, they will hold the camp firmly in case anyone else attacks at night. In fact, according to Guo Jia's temperament, he would not be so cautious, but I don't know why, he always had a faint feeling of uneasiness tonight, so he had to arrange a few more times, so as not to be taken advantage of by the enemy.

Guo Jia always felt that Yuan Shu and Liu Biao would not be as discordant as rumored, although the current situation looked like Yuan Shu was squeezed out, but Liu Biao's conspiracy image was already famous all over the world, and Guo Jia could not be taken precautions.

It is said that after Xiahoudun left the camp with 10,000 soldiers and horses, he went straight to the town five miles away.

Because of Guo Jia's reminder, Xiahou was also a little worried about whether there would be an ambush in this town, but when he went to the town, there were all ordinary people, men, women and children, and there was nothing abnormal in the past.

Seeing this situation, Xiahoudun also relieved his heart and ordered the army to enter the town quickly, half of which were ambushed outside the town, and half of them were ambushed in the people's houses, and in order to avoid wrongful injury, Xiahoudun specially sent people to bring the people back to their respective homes.

It's just that after being ambushed for a long time, outside the town, there is still no trace of Yuan Shujun.

At this moment, Xiahoudun couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

It stands to reason that even if Yuan Shujun is all foot soldiers, he should have arrived a long time ago along the way, unless, Yuan Shujun camped there directly?

And just when Xiahoudun was full of doubts and was about to send someone to ask Guo Jia for advice, a sudden change occurred!

As if it had suddenly occurred as if it had happened suddenly, a burst of fire suddenly erupted from the outermost house in the town, and then, as if it had been agreed in advance. The houses around the town, from the outside to the inside, actually emitted fire one by one.

It's just that in the blink of an eye, this town full of Cao Jun suddenly became a sea of fire!

"What the hell is going on?" Seeing that there was fire everywhere, Xiahoudun knew that something was wrong, but before he could understand what was happening, there was a loud laugh from behind him.
