Cao Cao threw the token to Zhong Yao.

"You are the captain of the Sili school, and you are most familiar with Chang'an Yongzhou area!"

"Quickly go to Yongzhou to meet Ma Teng, and tell him that the imperial court has pardoned him for taking part in the clothes belt edict!"

"If he still has the heart to act recklessly, declare his interests! Steal me from Chang'an, and be careful that Han Sui and others from Liangzhou steal his Yongzhou!"

Zhong Yao clasped his fists and signaled, "Yes, Prime Minister!"

Cao Cao said in a loud voice: "The so-called Xudu Wenwu listens to the order. At the third watch tomorrow, I will go to Xuzhou with light clothes and light clothes. At the same time, I ordered Cao Ren to send [-] troops from Guandu to help!"

As soon as this remark came out, all the officials were shocked.

Cheng Yu was the first to stand up: "Prime Minister, Xu Du can send [-] troops, why should he send [-] troops from Guandu?"

Cao Cao said: "Soldiers are expensive, and Liu Bei must be defeated quickly. Only in this way can we return before Yuan Shao makes a move!"

"Prime Minister is wise!" Cheng Yu was impressed again, and subconsciously exchanged a glance with Xun You.

The two firmly believed that this must be the overall plan Guo Jia made for Prime Minister Cao in the brothel.

As for why Prime Minister Cao didn't even mention Guo Jia's name, I don't know.

But looking at Xun Yu's expression and look, the two of them were a little more puzzled.

Early the next morning, a [-]-strong army set out from Xudu with light clothes.

And Cao Ren, who led troops stationed in Guandu, also led [-] soldiers and horses in light clothes.

When Liu Bei learned that Cao Cao had sent troops to Xuzhou, he immediately sent Sun Qian to Hebei to meet Yuan Shao and ask him to send troops.

Sun Qian didn't see Yuan Shao, only his counselor Xu You.

Xu You hurried to report to Yuan Shao.

"My lord, my lord, good news, great news!"

"What good news?" Yuan Shao sat on the bed, staring blankly at his son on the bed, already in a state of confusion.

Xu You smiled and said, "Master, you should laugh happily!"

"Huh?" Yuan Shao was furious, and glared at Xu You fiercely: "What did you say? My son is seriously ill and I am already in a state of disarray. How can you make me laugh?"

When Xu You heard this, he backed away in fright: "My lord, please calm down. Cao Cao led 20 troops to attack Xuzhou. Liu Bei sent Sun Qian to ask for help. Cao Jun's camp at Guandu is empty. Our army can quickly capture Xudu by driving straight in!"

Yuan Shao asked back, "What's so funny?"

Xu You smiled: "My lord, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Shouldn't it make you happy?"

"You bastard!" Yuan Shao said: "The ancients said, self-cultivation, governing the family, governing the country and the world, my family is still uneasy, how can the world be pacified?"

Xu You was stunned by Yuan Shao's nonsense and didn't know how to answer.

"My lord is wise, Xu You is stupid!" the counselor Guo Tu's voice came, and people also entered.

"How stupid am I?" Xu You asked Guo Tu angrily.

Guo Tudao: "Cao Cao has sent troops to Xuzhou, but Liu Bei has come to ask for help. At this time, my lord sends troops, Cao Cao must return to the army. This is the result Liu Bei wants to see!"

"Well said!" Yuan Shao nodded, showing approval to Guo Tu.

Guo Tu continued: "On the contrary, Cao Cao and Liu Bei went to war, and the two sides fell into a stalemate. My lord sent troops to attack Xudu again, and gained the greatest benefit with the smallest loss!"

Yuan Shao smiled: "Xu Ziyuan, did you hear that?"

Xu You shook his head: "Liu Bei will definitely not be able to defend Xuzhou!"

"Wait and see!" Yuan Shao made a final decision.

"Yes, my lord!" Xu You nodded helplessly and exited the tent.

……

At this time, Cao Cao had personally led 18 soldiers and horses into Xuzhou.

That night, they set up camp thirty li outside Xiaopei city.

Cao Ren came to report that there were few forests outside Xiaopei City, and all of them had been felled by the people. It might be difficult to build a large village overnight.

"Stand up!" Cao Cao said decisively.

Cheng Yu said: "Prime Minister, think twice!"

"Yes!" Xun You also said: "Our army has a long expedition, if Liu Bei attacks the camp at night, the camp will not be strong enough to hold on!"

"Hahaha!" Cao Cao laughed loudly: "That's why I want to set up a big stronghold, otherwise Liu Bei won't come back, and the order will be passed down. Except for the soldiers who built the camp, the rest of the soldiers and horses will be divided into eight groups to ambush outside!"

"Obey!" All the civil servants and generals in the big tent clasped their fists to signal.

In Xiaopei City, Liu Bei finally waited until Sun Gan came back.

But he received bad news.

Yuan Shao did not send troops, but let him stick to Xuzhou.

Zhang Fei yelled: "What bullshit leader, I think he just wants to pick up ready-made ones!"

"That's all!" Liu Bei said: "He doesn't want to help, we can't force it!"

Sun Qiandao: "My lord, Yuan Shao has something to say, if the army is defeated, you can go to Hebei to vote for him!"

Liu Bei said nothing, but felt uneasy in his heart.

Even a little panic.

Since he started his army, Liu Bei has never fought a tough battle, let alone won a battle.

He was able to become Xuzhou Mu at the beginning because Liu Bei turned around and went to Yanzhou to fight Lu Bu.

When Cao Cao and Lu Bu go to war, it is like a fight between gods.

Liu Bei is a pure passerby, and the kind of passerby who swings at both ends.

Without Cao Cao's help, he would have died in Lu Bu's hands long ago.

It can be said that Liu Bei's fear of Cao Cao is purely natural.

Sun Qian said again: "My lord, the Xuzhou soldiers are all Qingzhou soldiers under Cao Cao's former subordinates. The army is overwhelming. I'm afraid our army has no chance of winning this battle!"

The reason why these soldiers in Xuzhou followed Liu Bei was because he had food in hand.

Once Cao Cao instigates rebellion, or loses the battle, these soldiers will turn against each other in minutes.

After a while, scouts came to report that Cao Jun had difficulty camping outside the city.

"Oh?" Liu Bei was quite surprised: "There are lush forests outside the city, how can it be difficult to camp?"

"Hahaha!" Zhang Fei laughed loudly, stepped forward and said, "Brother, this is a good thing I did!"

"How did you do it?" Liu Bei looked at Zhang Fei puzzled.

Zhang Fei explained: "After Liu Dai and Ma Zhong withdrew, I knew that Cao Cao would come again. When he came to Xiaopei, he would set up camp. He had already led troops to cut down the forest to strengthen the city wall and build houses!"

"Okay!" Liu Bei nodded in satisfaction: "The third brother is becoming more and more talented as a general!"

The big black-faced Zhang Fei smiled and scratched his head: "Brother, since Cao Cao can't build a camp, we might as well take advantage of the night to attack Cao Cao and defeat Cao Cao in the first battle. We can win the battle without Yuan Shao!"

"Well said!" Liu Bei nodded heavily, "Tonight, Sun Gan is defending the city, and my third brother and I are going to rob the camp!"

"Obey!" Both of them clasped their fists to signal.

Chapter 11 Liu Bei was defeated and fled to Xuzhou, Guan Yu Tushan killed the messenger

At the third watch of the night, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei led a total of [-] troops out of Xiaopei.

The two soldiers divided into two groups, each led 5000 people, and went straight to Cao Jun's camp outside the city.

Zhang Fei rode his horse and led his troops in front. Seeing that Cao Jun's barracks were shabby and shabby, he was overjoyed and immediately led his troops to charge.

The army marched smoothly all the way, and in the blink of an eye, they killed Cao Cao's central army camp.

"Cao thief, where are you going?" Zhang Fei shouted, dismounted and rushed into the big tent.

But there was no one in the big tent.

The smile on Zhang Fei's face disappeared.

In an instant, a huge fire ignited around the camp.

Shouts of killing came from all directions.

"kill!"

Zhang Fei knew he had fallen for the trick, and hurriedly yelled, "Quickly withdraw, quickly withdraw, quickly withdraw!"

Unfortunately, it was too late. Zhang Liao led his troops to attack from the east, Xu Chu was to the west, Yu Jin was to the south, and Li Dian was to the north.

There is Xuhuang in the southeast, Lejin in the southwest, Xiahoudun in the northeast, and Xiahouyuan in the northwest.

Ma Qiqi of the Eighth Route Army came to kill him, and Liu Bei, who had just entered the camp, was the first to suffer.

The enemy's ambush came unexpectedly.

Liu Bei didn't dare to accept the move at all, so he turned around and ran away, ignoring his third brother Zhang Fei.

He only thought of one person in his heart, and that was Yuan Shao.

In the whole world, only Yuan Shao can defeat Cao Cao.

Liu Bei went straight to Qingzhou to vote for Yuan Shao.

At this time, Zhang Fei was still in chaos.

He rushed left and right, slashing and killing frantically.

After fighting fiercely with Cao Jun for several hours, the soldiers around him fell one by one.

In the end, he escaped in the chaos. He wanted to kill Xiaopei, but Cao Jun blocked his way ahead of time.

Zhang Fei scolded Thief Cao, he couldn't find his eldest brother, and he certainly couldn't vote for his second brother, so he simply took the remnant and ran to the mountains to avoid disaster.

Cao Cao on the other side, after cleaning the battlefield, found that more than half of the soldiers surrendered on the spot.

There was almost no thrill of victory in this battle.

Cao Cao ordered to lead his troops to attack Xiaopei City.

It was Sun Qian who guarded Xiaopei City, and he had no more than [-] soldiers and horses.

Hearing that Liu Bei was defeated and fled, he didn't dare to defend to the death, so he ran away with his troops.

Cao Cao took Xiaopei City without bloodshed.

After a little settlement, Cao Cao immediately sent troops to Xuzhou.

Mi Fang and Mi Zhu knew they were invincible, so they abandoned the city and left.

On the contrary, it was Chen Deng and his son of Xuzhou who offered the city on their own initiative.

The army entered the city safely, garrisoned the key points of the city, and announced the peace of the people.

The smoothness of winning Xuzhou is beyond everyone's imagination.

Cao Cao even regretted not being able to bring Guo Jia and Liu Xian with him.

If there is no accident, Guo Jia is looking for flowers and willows at the moment.

And Liu Xian may be farming with Lao Huang in the small courtyard.

That night, Cao Cao summoned civil and military officials to discuss matters in the big tent.

Naturally, how to break through Xiapi.

Cao Cao said: "Guan Yu warmed wine and killed Huaxiong in the past. He was a hero in the present age. He wished he could use it for himself. Do you have a good strategy?"

Xun You took half a step forward, and cupped his hands to signal: "Prime Minister, Liu Bei's family members are all in Xiaopei, if they attack Guan Yu forcefully, they will definitely defend to the death!"

"It makes sense!" Cao Cao nodded, "We must not let him stick to it!"

Xun You smiled slightly: "You can send soldiers to Xiapi City to inform Guan Yu of defeat, and order a general to challenge him. Guan Yu will fight against Nuer. This general can pretend to be defeated and lure Guan Yu out, and then the army will besiege him and force him to surrender! "

"Very good, very good!" Cao Cao nodded repeatedly.

To lure Guan Yu out, Liu Bei's family members are all in Xiaopei City, so they can easily take him.

After the victory, it happened that Liu Bei's two wives could be given to Liu Xian.
