Yecheng, Yuan's Mansion!

Yuan Shao, who was pale, sat in the middle of the hall, and in a short period of time, he was only in his thirties, and his hair was already half gray, looking very old.

On his left sat the advisers such as Fu Zhu, Judge, and Xu You, and on the right sat Wen Chou, Yan Liang and other military generals, a group of strategists and generals, all with solemn expressions.

"Are there no reinforcements!" asked Yuan Shao in a hoarse voice.

"No......," said Frustrated, with a frustrated face.

The hall was silent, in fact, everyone knew that some places could send troops, and even it was no problem to gather an army of 100,000 or 200,000 together.

But their problem is that firstly, they are reluctant to give up their respective territories, and secondly, they also know that Yuan Shao is besieged by an army of 100,000 and it is impossible to defend it, even if they only come to the rescue, by the time they reach Yecheng, Yecheng may have already been broken, and thirdly, even if Yecheng is not broken, their army will not be Haobai's opponent.

Yuan Shao looked at everyone, his expression was extremely depressed and sad, and he sighed: "I didn't expect that I, the fourth and third dukes of the Yuan family, would be defeated in my hands...... Pathetic, pathetic......"

Wen Chou's eyes were red when he heard this, Huo Ran got up, and said loudly: "Don't panic, the lord is willing to lead three thousand elite horsemen in the city to kill out of the city gate at night and escort the lord to withdraw from Yecheng." ”

The look in his eyes lit up, and he sighed slightly: "I'm afraid this is the only way, we can lead the defenders in the city to go out of the city on three sides and take the initiative to attack the enemy camp, and General Wen Chou and General Yan Liang will lead two thousand light cavalry to escort the lord to rush out of the enemy camp from the north gate to take advantage of the chaos. ”

Yuan Shao was silent for a long time, and suddenly took the case, and said angrily: "I, the fourth and third dukes of the Yuan family, Yuan is a general, and if the eldest husband dies, he will die, how can I throw away the next part and escape." ”

In fact, he knew in his heart that the hope of such a breakthrough was extremely slim, and even if he broke through, what would happen next.

......

The sun is slowly setting, and the night has arrived.

In the tent in Haobai's army, Haobai, Guo Jia, and Jia Xu were arranging things in the army.

There was a sound of footsteps, and a Haobai soldier walked in and said, "General, there is a person outside the tent, saying that he can help our army break through Yecheng." ”

Haobai looked at Guo Jia and Jia Xu and said, "Bring it in!"

After a while, the pro-soldier walked in with a man dressed in black and wearing a black hat.

"Who are you?" asked Haobai.

The man took off his black hat, revealing a somewhat flattering face, bowed to Haobai, and said, "The villain greets the general, the villain is the steward of the Xu Mansion, and he has come to deliver a message." ”

Guo Jia rolled his eyes and asked, "Xu Mansion, could it be Xu You's Mansion?"

"Exactly, this is a secret letter from the master, please look at it generally. As he spoke, the man took out a letter from his bosom.

Haobai took a look and saw that it was written: Three days later, he will be on duty at the east gate...... Three days later, there were three watches in the night, but when he saw the fire as a signal, he asked General Hao to lead the army to attack the city.

After Haobai, Guo Jia, and Jia Xu saw it, they looked at each other, and Jia Xu took the lead and said: "This matter is an opportunity, even if there is fraud in it, with the strength of our army, there is no need to worry too much." ”

Guo Jia also nodded, and said approvingly: "Yes, at this time, with the current situation, there should be no fraud, and even if Yuan Shao deliberately designed it, it would not use Xu You, I still know something about Xu You." ”

Hao Bai smiled, he knew that Xu You's surrender was absolutely true, because he had done it in history, and he was very famous.

......

The moon is dark and the wind is high, and the night of murder.

Thousands of troops slowly moved towards the east gate of Yecheng with Haobai, like a group of black ghosts, although they deliberately slowed their feet, they could still hear the rustling footsteps when they listened carefully.

After a while, tens of thousands of troops stood neatly under the night not far below the city tower, and their eyes like wild wolves were staring intently at the closed city gate, silent.

The castle is often breached from the inside, the battle of Guandu is no longer possible, Xu You, a strategist under Yuan Shao, wants to fulfill his mission of betraying Yuan Shao, only at this moment, if Xu You does not betray Yuan Shao, what is the difference between living and salted fish.

And don't worry about Xu You's cheating, the only thing I'm worried about is whether Xu You, who likes to pretend to be forced, will stand at the head of the city and shout loudly like he did to Cao Cao in history: "Haobai, if you don't have me Xu, can you enter this city!"

......

On the tower of the east gate of Yecheng, Wen Chou stood like a mountain, his eyes were like electricity, looking around the east gate, and he guarded the east gate where the main force of the enemy army was located, and he did not dare to slack off.

There was a sound of neat footsteps in the city, and a group of Yuan soldiers walked with neat steps towards the city gate.

"Xu Bingcao is here. A general beside him whispered.

Wen Chou slowly turned his head, only to see that Xu You had already climbed the city tower, and was running towards him with a smile on his face: "The general has worked hard!"

Wen Chou nodded at him and said, "Xu Bingcao changed his duty late at night, and it was even harder. ”

After saying that, he explained some defense to him, and then left, and before leaving, he told Chunchun: "The enemy's night attack is often in the second half of the night, and adults must be careful in everything!"

Xu You laughed and said: "General, please rest assured, but with Xu You's breath, he will never let anything happen to the East Gate." ”

Wen Chou climbed down the city tower surrounded by guards, and when he turned over and got on the horse, he suddenly felt faintly uneasy, and couldn't help but glance at the city again, but saw Xu You patrolling around, and shouted loudly from time to time: "Lift up your spirits, you have to sleep tomorrow!"

Wen Chou's heart was a little relieved, so he led the guards to run towards the city.

Xu You saw the backs of Wen Chou and his entourage gradually disappearing into the night, and looked back at the guards beside him, and a strange smile couldn't help but appear on the corner of his mouth.

He raised his head and saw that the full moon above his head had gradually moved towards Zhongtian, emitting a bright but slightly strange moonlight, illuminating the city in a bright place.

"It's almost three......" he muttered to himself.

Turning around, he shouted to the guards beside him: "The city is too cold, the soldiers are frozen, quickly light a few fires, let the brothers drive away the cold!"

A lieutenant hurriedly stopped: "My lord, General Wen has told you that no fire is allowed at the head of the city, and besides, it is only early autumn at this time, and it is not yet the season to light a fire for warmth." ”

Xu You glared and said angrily: "At this moment, the official is on duty, everything is listened to by the official, you dare to disobey!"

The lieutenant had no choice but to retreat.

Three fires rose into the sky, illuminating the sky of the East Gate, illuminating the ground two or three hundred meters away in front of the East Gate clearly.

A large black shadow like a dark cloud scurried out of the night like a ghost, and quickly rushed towards Yecheng City.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack...... a Yuan Jun exclaimed in panic.

Xu You's spirits perked up, and he immediately drew his sword and shouted: "Just the enemy, why worry about it! Quickly open the city gate, this official will go out of the city to meet the enemy!"

"Whoa!"

A group of soldiers beside him agreed one after another, surrounding the city gate wheel, and two of them slowly shook the wheel wheel, about to shake the city gate up.
