Chapter 248: Surprise Attack

Xu You smiled coldly, took out the letter of the messenger he had intercepted before from his sleeve, and handed it to Cao Cao with two fingers. Cao Cao took it with a suspicious look on his face. After reading it, his face changed greatly, and he looked up at Xu Yu suddenly, "This, this, how do you ......?" Xu You smiled and said: "I have long expected that your Cao Apu will not have much food and grass, so these days I often take people to ambush near your military camp, and tonight I really intercepted the letter you sent to Xuchang to urge grain." Based on this, I dare to assert that it will be difficult for you to sustain the food in your hands for a day! ”

Cao Cao hurriedly avoided the table and bowed deeply to Xu You. Xu You was startled and quickly stood up.

Cao Cao said gratefully: "Thank you Ziyuan!" ”

Xu You sighed, "It's not that I want to betray the Lord and seek glory, it's really that Yuan Shao doesn't accept advice, and Guo Tu's trial and matching are too pressing!" Glancing at Cao Cao, "Cao Apu, if Yuan Shao adopts my strategy, what will be the outcome of the battle?" Cao Cao laughed and said, "I, Cao Cao, will be defeated!" patted his neck and said half-jokingly: "Maybe this upward head can't be saved!" ”

Xu You said proudly: "It's good if you know!" ”

Cao Cao asked Xu You to re-enter the table. The two had a drink, and Cao Cao asked, "Ziyuan must have come here to help me!" Please Ziyuan teach me how to defeat Yuan Shao! After the deed is completed, Ziyuan should be the first to take the lead, and I will play tomorrow's son and reward him greatly. ”

Xu You pondered: "It's not difficult to defeat Yuan Shao!" Glancing at Cao Cao, "Do you know where Yuan Shao's grain and grass are hoarded?" ”

Cao Cao shook his head, "I don't know! ”

Xu You stood up and walked to the map. Cao Cao hurriedly followed. Xu You pointed to a place 100 miles northeast of Guandu, "Here, Wuchao." ”

Cao Cao's gaze immediately fell on the black nest, and his eyes froze. Hurriedly asked, "How many defenders are there in the black nest?" Who is the defender? ”

Xu Yu said: "Eighty thousand defenders, the guard will be Chun Yuqiong." ”

Cao Cao frowned, "Eighty thousand defenders?!" ”

Xu You immediately understood Cao Cao's worries and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry! Although there are many defenders here, the defenders are incompetent. Chun Yuqiong is a reckless and good drinker, and he has been repeatedly defeated by Lu Bu before. Meng De only needed to send an elite army under the banner of Yuan Shao and go straight over. If you encounter a checkpoint checkpoint, just say that it is the team under Jiang Qi who went to transport grain, and the checkpoint will never be suspicious! As long as you enter the black nest, the big thing is decided! ”

Cao Cao laughed, "Good! Yuan Shao is determined this time! He immediately called Xu Chu to convene the generals to discuss the matter. Xu Chu glanced at Xu You, who was proud, and went out as promised.

A moment later, the generals gathered in the big tent, and Cao Cao was already fully clothed.

Cao Cao sat on the main seat, glanced at the generals under his tent, and said in a loud voice: "I have learned where Yuan Shaotun's grain is. "Look at Xiahoudun," Xiahoudun. A warrior who was as fierce as a tiger and a leopard immediately came out, hugged his fists and said, "Yes." "Let you ride 10,000 handsome elite tigers and leopards, put on Yuan Shao's banner, and go to the black nest immediately." "No." "Remember, you can't fight along the road unless you have to, and if you encounter interrogation, you only say that Jiang Qi sent it to transport grain!" "No." Back in the queue.

Cao Cao looked at Li Dian, "Li Dian." Li Dian is listed.

"You ride 30,000 handsome steps, go to meet you."

"No."

"Yu Ban, your light cavalry is 50,000, ambush on the road from Guandu to Wuchao, if you encounter Yuan Shao's reinforcements, leave him alone with a small force, if you encounter a large army, immediately ambush the army and kill it." "No."

"The rest of the lords will stay with me in the camp! Go for it! The generals hugged their fists and promised to leave actively. Immediately, the originally quiet military camp became noisy, and groups of soldiers and horses left the camp.

Xu You stood at the door of the big tent, with a look of thought and doubt on his face. Seeing this, Cao Cao asked, "What is Ziyuan worried about?" Xu You stroked his beard and frowned: "I'm a little sure how Yuan Shao will react!" ”

Cao Cao thought for a while, "Yuan Shao will definitely do his best to return to the Black Nest!" ”

Xu You waved his hand, "No, no, no!" Although Yuan Shao is stupid, he is sometimes extremely wise and dares to take dangerous moves! This is something you can't afford to guard! Cao Cao frowned and said, "You mean, he will make a desperate attempt to attack my camp?" Xu You nodded, "Very likely!" Cao Cao nodded thoughtfully.

……

Xiahoudun led 10,000 tigers and leopards to ride under the banner of Jiang Qi and went all the way to the black nest. On the way, he encountered a pass for interrogation, and only said that Jiang Qi was sent to Wuchao to transport grain, and every pass was allowed without suspicion. In this way, the elite of the Cao army drove straight into the outside of the Wuchao camp without spending a single soldier. The old trick was repeated and the gate was opened, and 10,000 elites swaggered in.

As soon as these 10,000 elites entered the Black Nest, they suddenly launched a fierce attack on the Black Nest defenders. The iron cavalry threw away Yuan Shao's banner and came out in all directions, killing Yuan Shao's army like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. Xiahoudun personally commanded an elite and went straight to Chun Yuqiong's handsome tent. At this time, Chun Yuqiong was still drunk and lying on the desk in the big tent.

The sound of killing was surging in the black nest, and clusters of firelight surged up. An officer rushed into the big tent and shouted, "The general is not good...... but he was stunned to see Chun Yuqiong actually lying drunk on the desk, snoring profusely. At this time, the rapid sound of horses' hooves and killing outside quickly approached. The officer came back to his senses, couldn't take care of Chun Yuqiong, and ran for his life!

……

Yuan Shao saw the flames of the black nest in the barracks, and his complexion changed greatly. Hurriedly summoned all the civil and military forces. Yuan Shao hurriedly said: "Wuchao must have been attacked!" I'm going to lead the army to the rescue myself! ”

Guo Tu hurriedly said: "Slow down!" ”

Yuan Shao said angrily: "How can you be slow now? ”

Guo Tu hurriedly said: "Lord, Cao Cao's attack on the black nest must be as elite!" Now the battalion must be on guard against emptiness, it is better to do it on both sides, send a team of soldiers and horses to rescue Wuchao on the one hand, and attack Cao Ying on the other, if you can break through Cao Ying, even if Wuchao's grain and grass are destroyed, you can turn defeat into victory! ”

Yuan Shaoshen thought so, and immediately ordered: "Open your jaw, look high." ”

The two generals came out to standby.

Yuan Shao said: "I ordered the two of you to lead an army of 200,000 to attack Cao Ying!" Be sure to mention Cao Cao's head! The two generals clenched their fists and ran down.

"Jiang Qi, Han Meng."

Two will come out.

"The two of you led an army of 100,000 to rescue the black nest."

The two generals rushed down.

The people in Yuan Shao's camp shouted that the horses were neighing and the dust was flying, and the army came out of the barracks.

Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran led an army of 200,000 to launch a fierce attack on the Cao army camp! Unexpectedly, the Cao army had been prepared, and the attacking army fell one after another under the dense arrow rain of the Cao army! Finally rushed into the gate, there was a sudden loud bang in front, and a huge pit suddenly appeared on the originally flat ground! Many people and horses fell into it, and the big pit was full of bamboo sticks, and the people and horses who fell down were seriously injured if they did not die, and the blood was unbearable! The army behind couldn't stop for a while, and many people fell into the pit again under the pushing, and there was a wail!
