With Jingzhou's food and grass support, Jiang Siming no longer had any worries and could deal with Yuan Shao with peace of mind.
Otherwise, if there is no food, he will have no choice but to retreat if he does not deal with Yuan Shao before he runs out of food.
Jiang Siming didn't want to retreat and wait another year and a half to fight again. He must strangle Yuan Shao to death and unify the three kingdoms as emperor as soon as possible.
After Cao Cao learned that Jingzhou had grain to give to Jiang Siming, he decisively gave up any more small tricks, and Yuan Shao's plan was completely scrapped.
Yuan Shao, who had lost his army and had nothing to do, was angry and angry. In addition, his favorite son was dead, so he became even more angry and took it out on Xu You again.
Xu You's butt was not healed yet, so he was scolded for another thirty years.
Moreover, the military advisor Guo Tu, who had always been his sworn enemy, revealed to Yuan Shao that Xu You was greedy for money and had embezzled a lot of military pay in Yecheng.
Yuan Shao became even more angry when he heard this, and threatened to deal with Xu You well when he returns after the battle.
Xu You was angry and scared, so he decided to risk his life!
That night, Jiang Siming was resting in the commander's camp, and a small figure was washing Jiang Siming's feet.
This person was Huang Yueying. This girl took advantage of Jiang Siming's army to set off, and she naughtily pretended to be Jiang Siming's personal guard, sneaked into the military camp and came to Guandu.
After Jiang Siming found out, it was too late. He sent someone to take her back because he was worried that the road would be unsafe, so he had to let her stay with him temporarily.
"Brother Prime Minister, look, there are benefits to keeping me by your side. Someone will wash your feet and make the quilt for you."
Huang Yueying rubbed her little hands to wash Jiang Siming's feet and said with a smile.
Jiang Siming closed his eyes and rested, enjoying the treatment of the little blonde girl washing his feet.
"You ran out privately and you still have the nerve to claim credit. I know how worried your sisters are about you in Chang'an." Jiang Siming scolded.
Huang Yueying pouted weakly at the corner of her mouth and said: "Yueying knows that she was wrong, so she won't dare to do it next time, but this time Yueying wants to see what war is like with Brother Prime Minister~"
"What's so good about fighting?"
"Of course it looks good. Brother Prime Minister looks so handsome in armor!" Huang Yueying said with a smile.
Jiang Siming was amused and said, "You know what it means to be handsome, you little brat."
Huang Yueying immediately refused to accept it, straightened her upper body and said: "Yueying is not young anymore. Yueying knows what it means to be handsome. Don't underestimate Yueying~"
Jiang Siming said cheerfully: "Okay, I know you are smart and you have grown up, okay, wipe me with a towel and go to bed quickly. It's getting late."
Huang Yueying said "Oh" and happily went to get a towel. Her "bedroom" was arranged in Shuaiying, right next to Jiang Siming. There was a curtain between the two beds.
The main reason is that Jiang Siming is afraid that it will be inconvenient for Yueying. The military camp is a place for men, so Yueying cannot be allowed to crowd into the dormitory.
Every night when she went to bed, Yueying could hear Jiang Siming's slight breathing, and her face turned red every time.
After all, she had never slept so close to a man before. Although they didn't sleep on the same bed, the two of them were close enough.
As soon as Yueying brought the towel, the guards came running in to report the news.
"Lord, we have captured a person outside, claiming to be Yuan Shao's military advisor Xu You, who has come to surrender to the enemy. This person is outside the tent now."
Jiang Siming was stunned, Xu You? Surrendered to the enemy?
Suddenly, Jiang Siming remembered that Xu You also betrayed Yuan Shao during the Guandu Battle between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao in the history books.
Unexpectedly, Yuan Shao was betrayed here again. It seems that there is a certain destiny.
Xu You's surrender to the enemy must have brought extraordinary information. Jiang Siming blinked and his acting skills began.
"It turns out to be Xu You and Xu Ziyuan. I've heard of you for a long time! Please come quickly! No no, I'll go by myself!"
After Jiang Siming finished speaking, he looked excited, stood up from the ground, and walked out barefoot.
"Brother Prime Minister, you're not wearing any shoes." Huang Yueying chased after her, but Jiang Siming ignored her and walked out barefooted.
Xu You, who was uneasy outside the tent, was surprised when he heard this, but it could be heard from Jiang Siming's words that Jiang Siming admired him very much.
This settled Xu You's mind. He only came here to see Jiang Siming's attitude towards him and how much benefit he could get.
That's why Jiang Siming knew Xu You's nature, so he acted in this drama to get advantageous information from him.
Xu You saw Jiang Siming running toward him with bare feet and was immediately moved. At the same time, he felt extremely honored and proud.
I can let Prime Minister Jiang greet me barefoot. What kind of existence is Prime Minister Jiang? Today's Prime Minister has beaten his own lord Yuan Shao, who was originally recognized by everyone as the number one prince in the world, to a pulp.
Jiang Siming has so many advisers, but he still values him so much. Doesn't this mean that his status in Jiang Siming's heart is higher than that of Guo Jiaxunyu?
Thinking of this, Xu You felt very proud, but on the surface he still had to look flattered.
"Xu You, I have heard that Xu Ziyuan is famous for a long time. He is the number one counselor around Yuan Shao. Today I see that his reputation is well-deserved!"
When Jiang Siming said this, Xu You became even more happy. He quickly said that it was nothing, and at the same time pretended to be 'touched' and said, "Doesn't the Prime Minister think that I am a member of the enemy's army?"
"Hahaha, you underestimate the truth too much. The two armies are fighting and each is his own master. How can I blame you?" Jiang Siming said generously.
Xu You was even more moved. He quickly bowed to Jiang Siming and cried, "Prime Minister, please save me!"
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. Ziyuan come to my tent and talk to me slowly. If you need help from me, just ask."
Jiang Siming said as he personally pulled Xu You into the commander's camp.
In the commander's camp, Yueying quickly wanted to hide the map. After all, Xu You was a member of Yuan Shao, how could he see such a confidential matter.
Yueying is still very careful.
But Jiang Siming waved his hand and said: "Xu You and I hit it off right away. I believe in his character. There is no need to hide the map or anything like that, just leave it here!"
Yueying was obedient and did not move, obediently exiting for the time being.
Xu You was deeply moved and felt that his choice to surrender to the enemy was indeed the right one.
The two began to communicate. After Xu You explained everything clearly to Jiang Siming, Jiang Siming assured him that Xu You would still be here with him.
He was also promised the position of military advisor. Xu You was so happy that he immediately took out a map of Yuan Shao's troops, horses, food and grass distribution from his arms.
On the map, the locations where all of Yuan Shao's troops, horses, food and grass were stored, as well as the amount of armaments in each place were clearly marked.
Even the location of Yuan Shao's Guandu camp is clearly marked.
Jiang Siming laughed loudly, praised Xu You, and said that after this victory, he, Xu You, took the lead.
Xu You got Jiang Siming's promise and said goodbye happily. He went back to Yuan Shao to stabilize Yuan Shao for the time being, fearing that his plan would change after he found out.
After Jiang Siming got the map, he immediately held a meeting overnight and worked with his military advisors to devise a desperate plan: cut off food, encircle, sneak attack and then encircle. (To be continued)
