In Yuan Shao's military camp, the military generals of Wenchen who had just experienced a big war, including Yuan Shao himself, were still restless at the moment, and they still had palpitations.

Tian Feng stepped forward and said: "Our army's recent soldiers' rations, horses and grass have been frequently robbed by Xu Hong, a bastard, and it is recommended that the lord immediately send troops to attack Xuzhou City. ”

After Yuan Shao listened, he felt that the authority of his fourth and third dukes had been challenged, so he waved his hand.

"Order General Wen Chou to lead 50,000 soldiers to attack Xuzhou, and when Xuzhou is taken, I will break Cao's army, and then join forces together. ”

"Wow. ”

After hearing this, Xu You hurriedly dissuaded: "The lord can't, if you divide the troops and generals at this time, it will be unfavorable to our army, not to mention that General Wenchou is my Hebei court pillar, you can't leave easily, otherwise what should the Cao army do?"

"This... What do you say?"

The judge stood up and said: "Xu Hongnai stabbed the door upside down, it is not enough to be the enemy, the lord sent a right general, and led 30,000 troops to break the city." ”

"No, there are 60,000 soldiers in Xuzhou City, how can you win by hitting a stone with an egg?"

Xu Yu and the judge were reluctant to listen to it, and immediately wanted to discuss it with Tian Feng, Tian Feng naturally disagreed with them, Feng Ji at this time, he also took the opportunity to say a few words, it can be said that he wanted to stir up the topic, all of this was naturally seen by Yuan Shao, he naturally couldn't sit idly by, and slapped the table in front of him, and the ministers immediately stopped the discussion.

"In this case, send the left and right generals, each leading 20,000 soldiers, you can go to Xuzhou City, this matter can not be discussed again, let's retreat. ”

"Wow. ”

Soon the generals on Yuan Shao's side, straightened out the soldiers and horses, and went to Xuzhou City, the generals sent by the good guys, all of them were not famous, and they did not leave their traces in the Book of the Three Kingdoms, and soon the news of Yuan's army attacking Xuzhou City was found by the people of the Snake Eye Organization, and then the book was passed on quickly, and the news soon reached Xu Hong's side.

"Well, I know, you have done a good job, and this kind of news needs to be sent as soon as possible in the future. ”

"Wow. ”

Xu Hong said to himself: "10,000 taels of gold every year, the established organization, the transmission of intelligence is fast, it's really a very good thing, when I think of this, although I feel a little distressed, but it's still cost-effective, otherwise how can there be such a long time to prepare?"

After thinking about it, Xu Hong decided to pass the news to his father-in-law, and at the same time asked his daughter-in-law Lu Lingqi to pay attention to safety, and then he wrote down five strategies to defend against the enemy.

"First, in the counties of Xuzhou City, carry out the clearing of the strong walls, and transfer a lot of resources to the nearest city. ”

"Second, divide the soldiers and horses of each county into two parts, one part is left in the city, and the other part is hidden at the back gate of the city, and ambush twenty miles to the south, once the main city is surrounded, immediately attack the besieging Yuan army from the flank. ”

"Third, I sent a special person to deliver the daily news, and I can't make decisions easily, and I will find a way after receiving my news. ”

"Fourth, the other thing is that you can't easily form alliances, and you can't trust anyone's support. ”

"Fifth, you can't leave the city, after a long time, the siege soldiers and horses will be short of food, and they will naturally retreat, then Xuzhou City will be slightly sleepy, and it can be lifted. ”

Xu Hong immediately passed the five strategies to his father-in-law in Xuzhou City, as well as his daughter-in-law, and then led his soldiers to join Jiang Gan and Zhao Yun.

"How's it going?"

"It's great, the recently robbed military rations are enough for the whole army to eat for a year, and there is gold, which can be used as military salaries, enough for the whole army, which is really very good. ”

"Yes, if this continues, we won't have to worry about food and clothing, and this kind of cost is nothing, just a little harder. ”

Xu Hong nodded, it seems that his prestige in their hearts has been further improved, it is very good, so that enough military prestige can be erected, which is definitely very good for me, and slowly accumulating, it is definitely a good thing for me, and my career will rely on these people to support it in the future.

"Hahaha, then let's pack up, let's get ready to retreat. ”

"Where to go?"

"Come back to Xuzhou City with me, Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses will be sent out soon, and if we rush back, we will be able to catch up with the battle." ”

Xu Hong issued a military order, the two soldiers and horses quickly gathered together, and then cleaned up, immediately all the soldiers and horses, began to retreat, it was completed in a short time, and then they quietly left the battlefield, just like Cao Yuan's two armies, the people on the battlefield here, from beginning to end did not find Xu Hong's soldiers and horses, but basically the rear was about to be hollowed out.

"Hurry back, hurry up and hurry, I'm worried about the situation in Xuzhou City." ”

Xu Hong thought that his daughter-in-law was still in the city, and the city was attacked by Yuan's army again, he was a little anxious, and other generals along the way, seeing Xu Hong's appearance, did not dare to talk to him, but secretly accelerated the march, rushed back to Xuzhou City earlier, and after walking like this for a few days and nights, he finally saw Xuzhou City in front.

However, the wind and waves were calm in front of him, although there were some traces of battle on the battlefield, but now there was nothing to do, and the troops kept rushing to Xuzhou City, he was a little stunned.

"This is Xuzhou City?

"Didn't you say that there was a battle? Oh, it may have been rushed back in advance, most of the men and horses of the Yuan army have not yet arrived, hurry! The whole army will quickly return to the city!"

Xu Hong issued a military order, Zhao Yun and Jiang Gan and other soldiers, spread their steps and began to run wildly, good guys, it only took an hour, and they all rushed back to the city, Xu Hong did not dare to be careless, and quickly ran to the camp and saw his father-in-law and daughter-in-law.

"Lady, where has my father-in-law gone? Did you get my message before?"

"I got it, my father was overjoyed to drink a lot, and went back to rest. ”

"Huh, what will I do when the soldiers come over?"

"Oh, do you mean those weak Yuan soldiers, I didn't use my father's hands at all, I went out of the city directly to behead their heads, and then took all their grain, grass and gold back to the city, and all the remaining prisoners are repairing the city wall at the moment, and after repairing it, I will let them go, so that I can save food to feed this group of people. ”

Lu Lingqi said very calmly, the calmer he was, the more stunned Xu Hong became, his jaw was about to drop, and the 40,000 Yuan army was cleaned up by his daughter-in-law like this? It's too fierce, thinking of Xu Hong here, he gave a thumbs up to his daughter-in-law Lu Lingqi!

"The lady is really a heroine among women!"
