Chapter 746: Lack of Food and Grass

Zhuge Liang said: "My lord, although our army is short of food and grass, Cao Jun's food and grass are also not enough.

If this is the case, the general decided to immediately capture a small city as a stronghold, and directly burned Cao Cao's granary outside the city, and sent a large number of soldiers to loot grain and grass. ”

"Good! It's a good idea! Liu Bei praised.

Then Zhuge Liang directly led people to start the operation, and caught Cao Cao off guard.

"It's not good, the grain and grass have been sneak attacked!"

Seeing this, Cao's sentry suddenly changed his face and hurried to inform his leader.

Soon, the general of Cao Jun came to the granary, looked at the fire in front of him, and said with a pale face: "Go, return to the camp immediately, and tell the prime minister that the grain and grass have been burned!" ”

"Oh? Come and hear it! Cao Ang waited with great interest for the young man to continue.

At the same time, the grain and grass in Yingchuan County were burned, and this matter also spread throughout Xuzhou.

Half an hour later, Cao Cao finally arrived at the camp, and looking at the burned granary, Cao Cao was furious.

The boy suddenly thought of something and stopped.

Xu Duli has restored order, and those who were originally powerful and powerful have been beaten all over again.

As soon as Cao Cao's order was issued, the Cao soldiers immediately quickened their pace and rushed towards Yingchuan County.

Although it was getting late, there was still an endless stream of pedestrians on the road, and the sound of horses' hooves trampling resounded in my ears.

Cao Ang naturally knew what the young man was worried about, but in his eyes, those so-called anti-thieves were just clowns who jumped off the beam, and he didn't need to take it to heart at all.

"Who did it?" Cao Cao shouted angrily.

But those eyes shone unusually brightly, like the brightest stars in the night sky.

When the princes of all parties heard this, they all sighed with emotion.

"Pass on the Prime Minister's orders, full speed ahead!" Cao Cao shouted.

He patted the dust on his body, and then grabbed the other party's arm and walked outside, "Let's go, let's find an inn to eat."

When Cao Cao heard the name of this general, his face softened a lot, and he asked, "Do you have any evidence to prove that it was the remnants of the Liu family?" ”

He had just walked into the threshold of the restaurant, and was greeted by a chubby little er, with a smile on his face and enthusiasm.

"Report!" The sentry knelt down beside Cao Cao's carriage and shouted, "Lord Qiyu, it's not good, our army's grain and grass have been burned!" ”

"Hmph, if that's the case, then Benxiang will go to him in person!" Cao Cao said through gritted teeth.

After a full meal, Cao Ang left on the pretext that he was going to visit the rumored celebrity Tao Qian, and the two also made an appointment to meet in a restaurant.

Cao Ang looked up and saw a young man standing in front of him panting.

Xiao Er bowed and retreated.

"Are you Gongzi Cao? Tao Yuanjun has been waiting in the upstairs elegant room for a long time! Xiao Er said.

He did feel that there were a lot of strangers in the city these days, but they were very low-key and didn't attract anyone's attention.

I've found out they've been in contact with the city's army, but it's not clear what they've done. ”

Cao Ang clenched his fists: "Tao Envoy Jun." ”

"The last general is Chen Gong!" The military general said proudly.

Cao Cao was not only angry that the grain and grass were burned, but also angry that Liu Bei had the audacity to dare to kill his own life, so he made up his mind to clean up Liu Qi.

"Big brother, are these people traitors?"

"Big brother!" A young man ran from a distance.

The young man looked at Cao Ang in surprise: "Big brother, I know you are powerful, but these people are definitely not simple, be careful!" ”

He had long heard that Xu Du was a young hero, not only brave in martial arts, but also brilliant in writing, and it was really extraordinary to see it with his own eyes today.

"Why did you get here? What to do in case you fall? Cao Ang scolded with a smile.

Xiao Er led Cao Ang towards the inside of the restaurant, and then came to a door on the far right side of the third floor, and knocked on the door: "Tao Envoy, Cao Gongzi has arrived." ”

"Lord, do you know that the last general went to the county seat of Yingchuan County with his soldiers last night, but met a scout sent by Liu Bei."

The young man was about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a thin body, a fair face, plain dress, and a wooden stick in his hand.

When Cao Ang heard this, his heart shook suddenly, and then he snorted coldly and said, "If they are really traitors, I will make them pay a terrible price." ”

By the way, I would like to ask about the current situation, I have worked hard for you during this time. ”

"Haha, I happened to be hungry."

Cao Ang strolled through the streets of Xudu, this time he did not bring an escort, but leisurely enjoyed the rare tranquility in the troubled times.

"Young Master Cao, look up for a long time." Tao Qianpi smiled and arched his hand.

The generals knelt on the ground, and no one dared to say anything.

The door opened a crack, revealing Tao Qian's fat body: "Okay, you go down and prepare tea first." ”

The boy hesitated for a moment: "Actually, I know a few things. ”

Tao Qian beckoned, "Young Master Cao, please take a seat." ”

"Big brother, there's a restaurant over there, why don't I invite you to a drink." The teenager suggested.

Today's Xu Du makes Cao Ang feel very comfortable.

"Quick, go back immediately!" Cao Cao urged the groom to return to the camp on his horse.

The boy nodded.

"The Admiral has the evidence!" Chen Gong said with a smile.

The young man scratched his head and said stupidly, "I've heard others mention that the eldest brother might come back here." ”

He pointed to the surrounding streets, "And then he hurried over." ”

Cao Ang walked in, and Tao Qian sat on a chair, staring at Cao Ang.

But they did not choose to act rashly, but quietly waited for the situation to develop further.

The prosperity of Xudu is much better than before, with many shops on the street and an endless stream of vendors.

"I'm tired." Cao Ang said with a smile.

"Don't worry, it's just a rabble, and it can't compare with me at all." Cao Ang said arrogantly.

All kinds of cries came and went, as if the vitality of the whole city had returned to its original state.

"Strange people?" Cao Ang frowned.

"Yes!" Several sentries hurried back to the camp.

Cao Cao glared at the general: "Which unit are you the commander of?" Is there any evidence? ”

"What? Grain and grass burned? Cao Cao said in surprise.

The boy took a deep breath: "Recently, many strange people have suddenly appeared in the city.

Cao Ang reached out and kneaded his head, "It's so stupid." ”

"Lord, it's the remnants of the Han family!" A military general stood up and said.

"What's wrong?" Cao Ang turned his head and asked.

Cao Cao was puzzled: "Oh? ”

Cao Ang sat down.

Tao Qian looked at Cao Ang with a smile and asked, "Young Master Cao, I heard about your feat in Xu Du, which is really admirable." ”

"Where, where, it's just a little bit of a small effort." Cao Ang said modestly. (End of chapter)
