Chen Qi's grain and grass had been prepared, and in the evening, Song Xian brought back news to Lu Bu, and Lu Bu's spirit couldn't help but be shocked, he had been waiting for this batch of grain and grass for several days.

Zhou Yuan also followed, the specific marching route was not here, but Cao Cao sent someone to hand it over directly to Xu Chu, and when Song Xian went to Xu Chu's side to see, the route had also been burned by Xu Chu, so after Song Xian and Zhou Yuan discussed, it was decided that Song Xian would come to inform Lu Bu, and Zhou Yuan would continue to follow, and he would keep passing on his latest route to Lu Bu.

The distance from Xuzhou to Xiapi is not far, the farthest is only two hundred miles, because there is a big lake in the middle, so there are three in the general direction, if there are enough boats, you can directly cross the lake with a boat, and then directly transport it, if you want to bypass the lake, the gap between the two roads is big.

The fastest should be to take the waterway, the lake leads to the ancestral water, and the moat of Xiapi City is drawn from there, and you can quickly reach the vicinity of Xiapi by water, but it is also easier to find.

Cao Cao seems to have been more cautious on the issue of grain routes.

"When did their grain and grass leave, and how much grain did they have?" Lu Bu asked.

"Back to the lord, the grain and grass set off early this morning, I don't know how many generals there are, but Chen Qi has mobilized hundreds of vehicles from various cities to load grain these days, and there are 2,000 accompanying guards alone, in addition to the 500 people sent by Cao Cao, Chen Qi has mobilized 1,500 people to help escort!" Song Xian bowed and said.

"Probe again, and find out where they have landed tonight." Lu Bu thought about it and ordered Song Xian to investigate.

Although the road is not far, there are hundreds of grain trucks, and the marching speed is definitely not fast, which is a great opportunity!

After Lu Bu sent Song Xian away, he immediately ordered someone to call Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Cao Xing, and Wei Yue, thought about it, and called Chen Gong and Qin Li as well.

Not long after, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Cao Xing, Wei Chengong, and Qin Li came to Lu Bu's study, where the entire upper echelons of the lower cortex looked a little thin.

"There are secret agents who have heard the whereabouts of Cao Cao's grain and grass, this time, I am going to rob this batch of grain and grass, what do you think?" Lu Bu motioned for everyone to sit down and get straight to the point.

"Lord, Cao Cao is good at deceit, this matter is ......," Zhang Liao frowned.

"Don't worry about the news, it's true." Lu Bu shook his head and signaled that everyone didn't have to worry about whether the news was correct or not, unless Cao Cao had an envoy like himself, he couldn't deceive himself in this matter.

Chen Gong frowned and said, "How can Wen Hou be sure that Cao Cao's grain team is taking that road?" ”

"For the time being, it is not possible to determine, the marching map Cao Cao gave it directly to that Xu Chu, Xu Chu burned it after reading it, my people are currently tracking, and they will report at any time, but we must set off as soon as possible, I plan to lead five hundred elite cavalry and eight hundred trap camps tonight, attack with light cavalry, intercept the grain team as soon as possible, and seize the grain and grass." Lu Bu shook his head and said.

Hearing this, Qin Li frowned and thought for a moment, then looked at Lu Bu and suddenly asked, "If the lord can be sure that the grain and grass are correct, and it is not Cao Cao's trick, I wonder if the lord can be sure to wipe out all these horses?" ”

"This ......" Lu Bu shook his head: "In addition to the five hundred elite soldiers of Cao's army, the other party also has 1,500 soldiers sent to Cao Cao by Chen Qi, a total of 2,000 men and horses, if you want to annihilate them all, it is not easy." ”

"If you can wipe out all of them, you can hide and bury all their corpses, so that no one can find them." Qin Li thought about it, and was indeed a little reluctant, but still said to Lu Bu: "In this way, Cao Cao can't receive grain and grass, and he will definitely send someone to investigate, if Chen Qi says that the grain has been sent out, but he doesn't see the shadow of Cao Jun, as far as the old man knows, that Xu Chu is Cao Cao's favorite general, even if Cao Cao will not turn against him because of this, he will also feel guilty, if he can separate the relationship between the Chen family and Cao Cao, without the righteousness of the court, the lord will cut off a lot of trouble if he waits for Cao Jun to retreat. ”

Chen Gong glanced at Qin Li with some surprise, and after thinking carefully for a while, he found that if he could really wipe out all of them, things would really be like what Qin Li said.

"But how to transport the grain and grass back to the city without Cao Jun knowing?" Chen Gong looked at Qin Li and said.

Although Cao Cao is now dormant, the scouts are all over Xiapi, not to mention that now the entire territory of Xuzhou, except for Xiapi, has fallen, which can be said to be the eyes and ears of Cao Jun.

"You can sail out of the city overnight, follow the ancestral water into the ancestral lake, do not turn on the lights, after the lord robs the grain and grass, you can directly transport it to the upper reaches of the moat, and then drive the boat into the city in the dead of night, so as not to alarm the Cao army to scout on the shore." Qin Li smiled and said: "Previously, Cao Cao dug up the Surabaya and poured it back, so that there were several broken canals in the city wall, which are still connected to the outside of the city, and it was just this opportunity to transport the boat from these canals. ”

"But where are there so many boats in the city?" Chen Gong frowned and said, those canals are not wide, and they have been repaired over time, at most, they are the kind of small boats that can accommodate two or three people, and the transportation capacity is limited, not to mention that although Xuzhou is close to the sea, Xiapi does not live on water, although there are boats, but there are not many.

"There is no need for too much, that a lot of grain and grass can be transported in batches, and the grain and grass can be hoarded upstream, and the flags will die down during the day, and the grain and grass will be transported back by boat at night, and then the Cao Cao army may have run out of food, and the 50,000 Cao army will ...... at that time."

Lu Bu opened the map, looked at it silently for a moment, and then said, "Cao Xing." ”

"The last general!" Cao Xuan hurriedly got up and saluted.

"You lead the eight hundred soldiers of the trapped camp, collect the boats, and go out of the city by canal tonight according to what Mr. Qin said." Lu Bu looked at Cao Xing and said: "After leaving the city, leave a hundred people here to take care of the boat and hide their tracks, and you will lead the remaining seven hundred people to join me here." ”

"Whoa!" After Cao Xing carefully looked at the map, he bowed to Lu Bu and said.

"Zhang Liao, Wei Yue!" Lu Bu looked at Zhang Liao and Wei Yuedao.

"The last general!" Zhang Liao and Wei Yue took a step forward and bowed to Lu Bu.

"You two will immediately order five hundred cavalry, and one of you will bring two more horses to be ridden by the soldiers of the trapped camp, and they will carry three days' rations, and they will go out of the city with me tonight." Lu Bu looked at the two of them and said in a deep voice.

"Whoa!" The two of them responded angrily.

"Gao Shun." Lu Bu looked at Gao Shun again.

"The end will be." Gao Shun stepped forward and bowed.

"After I leave, you are responsible for guarding the city, and all the big and small affairs in the city are decided by you, and you must not slack off in the slightest!" Lu Bu looked at Gao Shun and said in a deep voice.

"Whoa!" Gao Shun looked solemn, hugged his fist at Lu Bu and said: "Don't worry, the lord is in the city, people are dead, and the city is still there!" ”

"The government affairs in the city are managed by Mr. Lao Qin and the public platform." Lu Bu looked at Chen Gong and Qin Lidao.

"The lord (Wen Hou) rest assured." Chen Gong and Qin Li bowed and said.

"Let's go and get ready." Lu Bu nodded silently, stood up and said.

"Whoa!"
