When Yuan Shao saw this letter, he subconsciously thought that this was Guo Jia's discordant plan, and wanted to burn it as soon as possible.

But when he thought that the conflict between himself and Xu Yu had become bigger and bigger recently, the content of the letter suddenly became credible.

Subsequently, Yuan Shao summoned Tian Feng, frustrated the two, and told the content of the letter.

The two looked at each other, not knowing where to start. Xu You, as the earliest confidant who followed Yuan Shao, would he also betray?

Although they didn't deal with Xu You, they could also see that the other party was really planning for Yuan Shao.

"Could it be Guo Fengxiao's discordant plan?" Frustrated and tentative.

But then he felt that it was unlikely, judging from Guan Yu's movements, Liu Bei was interested in helping them deal with Cao Cao. In that case, why use a divisive scheme against them?

Yuan Shao also thought so, so he believed the content of the letter for three points.

"You say, why does Liu Bei want to help me deal with Cao Apu?"

Yuan Shao said the question that he had been puzzled for a long time.

He has always been unable to understand, obviously because he has more troops and more money and food, it stands to reason that Liu Bei should help Cao Cao deal with him.

Hearing this, Fu Zhu and Tian Feng looked at each other again, and they had also thought about this question. At first, it was a little unclear, but then it suddenly became clear.

Because Liu Bei was more optimistic about Cao Cao, he chose to help them who were vulnerable. It's a bit bizarre, but it's roughly.

"Maybe there is some personal vendetta between Liu Bei and Cao Cao." Frustrated for fear that the upright Tian Feng would tell the truth, he preemptively said.

This is a white lie, and it may make the lord feel more comfortable. On the other hand, if the lord has figured it out himself, then these words may also be taken as a comfort.

Tian Feng wanted to speak and stopped, and finally turned into a long sigh.

In fact, Yuan Shao already had an answer in his heart, but he didn't want to believe it.

Why?

Where am I worse than Cao Apu, do you Liu Bei look down on me like this?

"Then you should tell me, how should I deal with this matter, and how can I confirm whether Xu Yu is loyal or treacherous?"

Yuan Shao returned to the topic.

Tian Feng was about to respond, but saw the doorman come to report that Xu Yu was coming.

The three of them had different expressions, and a gleam flashed in Yuan Shao's eyes.

"Let him in."

A moment later, Xu Yu hurriedly walked into the tent with a look of joy on his face.

"My lord, I am very happy!"

"What's the joy of?" Yuan Shao was puzzled, and he was shocked in his heart, could it be that Cao Mengde was going to make a move?

"I intercepted a batch of Cao Cao's military rations, and also found out an important news."

Xu You then revealed that he had discovered the grain transportation route of Cao's army, and secretly summoned Zhang He to lead the army to ambush.

It is worth mentioning that it is Xu Yu who is in charge of the intelligence organization under Yuan Shao.

"Oh?" Yuan Shao was taken aback.

"Please move, my lord."

After a while, Yuan Shao and his entourage walked outside the tent, and there was an open space in the back camp.

The original empty place is full of grain at the moment, and from the perspective of Yuan Shao and others, this batch of military food must have tens of thousands of stones, to say the least.

Xu You said with a smile: "Cao Cao's grain and grass are not enough, this batch of grain can be said to be his life-saving straw, but now it is for us to get it, it is really God who wants to destroy Cao Cao." ”

Then he arched his hand, "Lord, now that Cao Cao's grain and grass are approaching, I suggest that the whole army attack Cao Cao in two ways, making his position chaotic." ”

After speaking, he quietly waited for Yuan Shao's response.

In fact, this is a bureau, a strategy from Cao Cao, and Xu You's temptation of Yuan Shao.

If Yuan Shao adopts his strategy, it proves that the other party is courageous, decisive, and still trusts himself. Then he could completely break the agreement with Cao Cao and continue to follow Yuan Shao.

On the contrary, he will switch to Cao Cao and plan for the other party.

As for Cao Cao's strategy, it was very simple, using tens of thousands of grains and grass to lower Yuan Shao's vigilance.

He knew that Liu Bei was a reborn person, and he would inevitably tell Yuan Shao about Xu You's betrayal. Cao Cao just wanted to plan and use this matter to paralyze Yuan Shao.

These three people have been friends since they were teenagers, but now they have their own ghosts and calculate each other.

Yuan Shao was resourceful and indecisive, and he had already begun to doubt Xu Yu in his heart, but after getting these tens of thousands of stones, grains and grass, the scales in his heart were already tilted.

Although Xu You's clansmen are corrupt and pervert the law, they are still loyal to me, and Guo Fengxiao wants to separate my monarch and ministers.

Yuan Shao regained his trust in Xu You, but did not agree with his plan, he felt that he was too anxious and there was a certain risk.

"Although Ziyuan's strategy is exquisite, he is too anxious, if Cao Cao does not run out of food, our army will inevitably suffer heavy casualties under the initiative to attack."

"Besides, now Cao Cao is being attacked from all sides, and it is difficult to take care of the beginning and the end, I just need to fight steadily, and Cao Cao will be defeated."

Xu You was extremely disappointed when he heard this, if it was in the past, Yuan Shao's words were the most correct thing to do.

However, the problem is that Guo Jia, or the Liu Bei Group represented by Guan Yu, is an unstable factor.

They are now afraid of Cao Cao, so they will help us, but once we have the advantage, the peak of the Bingzhou army will turn to Jizhou.

In the face of such a situation, whether it is them or Cao Cao, they should make a quick decision and not give Guan Yu a chance to react.

Cao Cao had the determination of a strong man to break his wrist and dared to paralyze his opponent with life-saving grain and grass, but Yuan Shao was looking forward and backward.

Coupled with the deepening contradictions, Xu You already knows who he wants to throw himself to.

As for Tian Feng and Fu Zhu, they also believed in the matter of military rations. Tens of thousands of stones of grain and grass are too huge for anyone to think that this is a trap, because the price is unbearable.

Moreover, Xu You is the person in charge of Yuan Shao's intelligence organization, everything is so reasonable.

That night, a figure quietly left the barracks and rushed in the direction of Cao Cao's barracks.

......

Cao Jun barracks.

"My lord, the last general is incompetent, let the enemy army take away the grain and grass, please punish the lord."

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Cao Hong knelt on the ground and said with a look of shame.

This time, it was he who was in charge of escorting the grain and grass, but because he was outnumbered and the enemy had ambushed him in advance, he could not defeat him.

But no one noticed that Cao Cao's face was surprisingly calm, as if he had known everything in advance.

Cao Cao suddenly laughed, and then asked: "Zilian, do you know why the enemy army knows the route of your escort of grain and grass, and who told the secret?" ”

Seeing him look like this, Chen Gong and Cheng Yu looked at each other in horror as if they had guessed something.

Lord... This gamble is too big, and one mistake is a catastrophe.

Although Cao Hong didn't understand Cao Cao's reaction, he still replied: "Maybe it was discovered by Xuchang's meticulous work." ”

As for the problem of the inner ghost, he didn't think about it, because the matter of grain and grass is very important, and the only people who know the route of escorting grain and grass are him, Xiahoudun and Cao Cao.

"No wonder you can't guess, because the person who leaked the secret is none other than me Cao Cao!"
