Chapter five hundred and forty-ninth you come and I go
Although he knew that Cao Cao and Tao Shang were behind his back, Yuan Shao had no good solution.
If a dog bites you, can you really bite it back? Even if you can bite it back, you have to catch up with the dog first!
Therefore, the anger returns, but the matter must be solved in a safe way after all, and cannot be broken.
At present, Shenpei was stationed in Yecheng, and he still had a lot of troops and horses. Yuan Shao made a prompt decision and sent General Jiao Chu to lead tens of thousands of elites back to Jizhou to support Shenpei.
Yuan Shao personally wrote a letter to the examiner and granted him a seal, ordering him to have the right to deploy soldiers and generals from various states and counties in Hebei, and he was fully responsible for the rear affairs.
Yuan Shao still trusts his ability as a judge. He is a man of literary and military skills, and can be both a counselor and a general.
With him overseeing the deployment at the rear, Zhang Yan of the Montenegrin Army is a pauper who lacks food and armor. Despite his current momentum, he will definitely not be able to stir up any trouble for a short period of time. Even if he succeeds for a while, it will not last long.
Then there is the Xiliang army attacking Bingzhou.
Li Jue and Guo Si suddenly led their troops to attack Taiyuan, which was beyond Yuan Shao's expectation, especially since the senior officials were not in Bingzhou yet, leaving Bingzhou empty. Facing the fierce Li Jue and Guo Si, I'm afraid it would be nothing.
Resistance.
But Yuan Shao was no ordinary person. When he fought against Dong Zhuo, he also knew both of them very well.
Yuan Shao knew that Li Jue and Guo Si were extremely cruel and bloodthirsty. Even if they captured several counties in Bingzhou, they would never be able to last long. These two Xiliang jackals may be good for fighting, but they are definitely not good for defending success.
They are good at killing people, and treating people... Yuan Shao was stunned.
However, despite this, Yuan Shao still sent General Jiang Qi and ten captains from the Jizhou Army to lead 50,000 troops to Bingzhou to garrison in various places to assist the local governor in conquering Li Jue and Guo Si.
Yuan Shao also told Jiang Qi that there was no need to be eager to fight against these two jackals. All he had to do was wait quietly. After the two thieves lost all their energy, they would retreat. They would not be able to defend Bingzhou, and they might even bite him in the end.
After Jiang Qi took the order and left, Yuan Shao immediately summoned the generals to come to the commander's tent to discuss the Guandu battlefield.
Although proper arrangements were made for Jizhou and Bingzhou, Yuan Shao was still in a bad mood.
After all, even if they knew that Li Jue or Zhang Yan would not be able to take away their territory in the end, they still dispersed their forces to a certain extent, and even if they could not take the city, they would have to attack their own territory this time.
They carried out an inhumane scourge on the rear territories, especially Li Jue and Guo Si. The counties they passed through would inevitably be like locusts passing through, leaving no one or livestock behind... By then it would be Yuan Shao who would pay for repairs and provide food for the people.
Own.
Yuan Shao is really distressed...these are a scourge of heaven!
And he was a little angry with Tao Shang and Cao Cao.
But with these two things happening now, Yuan Shao really didn't dare to casually mobilize his entire army to hold a large-scale frontal battle against Tao and Cao.
Who knows what good shit these two bastards are holding back? If they really need to divide their own troops for rescue, and they can't mobilize them for a while, wouldn't they be passive and unable to save themselves?
Yuan Shao summoned the main generals and counselors to the commander's tent for questioning, asking everyone to think of ways to regain the situation.
Since there are too many generals, captains, and captains under Yuan Shao's command, there are hundreds or more, so they cannot all be summoned. Therefore, only those with the highest official rank and military rank, who are also Yuan Shao's, can be summoned for each court meeting.
The most trusted subordinates.
Yuan Shao recounted the unexpected incident to everyone present. During the presentation, Yuan Shao himself almost shed tears.
It's so unfair. Who did Yuan provoke?
Wen Chou had the most violent temper and exploded on the spot after hearing this.
"Cao Cao is a thief! The pottery merchant is a sycophant! How dare you do this! These dirty tricks are really not on the table! General, I am willing to lead an army to attack the enemy's stronghold and take the heads of the two thieves.
, to avenge my eldest brother Yan Liang is also to vent my anger on my lord!"
Yuan Shao's head was buzzing from Wen Chou's loud voice.
He raised his hand to block Wen Chou's words, then rubbed his temples vigorously and said, "Please keep your voice down, I have a severe headache."
Zhang He stepped out of the squad and said: "General Wen is brave when he is brave, but those troops are all elite men who have fought in hundreds of battles. They cannot be subdued in their eagerness, so they can only plan slowly and wait for the opportunity to be effective. At present, the enemy and we are
When competing for will, it is to see who reveals the flaw first, and the other side seizes the opportunity, which will be the final winner."
Yuan Shao nodded and said with appreciation: "What Jun Yi said makes sense. Cao Cao and Tao Shang made small moves behind Yuan. They just wanted to expose Yuan's weaknesses so that they could take advantage of the opportunity to attack me. Hey, Yuan missed them."
plan."
Guo Tu immediately began to flatter him: "The general is in the midst of thousands of troops and does not change his color. It is the appearance of a man of heaven. It is simply a fool's dream to try to shake the general with a mere trick!"
Yuan Shao narrowed his eyes and said: "But just letting Cao Cao and the pottery merchant control it like this is really passive. They can do things behind Yuan's rear, how can Yuan not do it?"
Guo Tu waved his hand: "Yes! Deal with him! Must deal with him!"
Yuan Shao turned to look at Guo Tu: "The question is...how to do it?"
Guo Tu was speechless all of a sudden.
He's good with women, but he's not good at this...
Tian Feng stood up after hearing this.
When Yuan Shao saw Tian Feng coming out, his eyelids jumped!
Tian Feng is an old and stubborn donkey. His mouth is full of stench, and no one can get used to it. The last thing Yuan Shao wants to do is communicate with him.
"What does Yuan Hao want to say?" Yuan Shao asked cautiously.
When Tian Feng saw that Yuan Shao was frightened to death before he could speak, Tian Feng made himself want to laugh.
It seems that I am usually too upright. I have to pay more attention in the future. At least when I speak, I have to be gentle to my lord.
He put on a slightly gentler expression and said to Yuan Shao: "I do have a way to help my lord deter the two thieves Cao Tao."
When Yuan Shao heard this, he immediately became energetic and no longer as nervous as he had been just now.
He said: "Yuan Hao, speak quickly."
Tian Feng cleared his throat and said: "The general can build a high platform higher than Cao Jun's stronghold, and place strong bows and crossbows on it. When Cao Jun shows up, he will shoot at it with force!"
Yuan Shao was a little confused when he heard this. He thought for a long time and couldn't figure it out, and then said: "Can Yuan Hao make a map?"
Tian Feng was not polite. He took a clean leather diagram and began to use pen and ink to draw dragons and phoenixes on it. When he was young, he completed a complete drawing of the well fence and handed it to Yuan Shao for viewing.
After Yuan Shao watched carefully for a moment, he nodded with satisfaction and said: "This method is very good! Although it is not enough to defeat the two thieves of Cao Tao, it can intimidate them, break their morale, and make their troops more capable."
Being frightened will definitely have miraculous effects."
After saying that, Yuan Shao turned to General Lu Weihuang and ordered him: "Quickly mobilize the craftsmen in the army to cut wood overnight to build manholes. A hundred of them must be completed within three days to intimidate the enemy in battle."
Lu Weihuang immediately took the order.
Xin Ping also advised Yuan Shao to dig a tunnel into Cao Tao's military camp, which was also adopted by Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shao turned to look at everyone and said: "You guys still have good plans for peace, but it's okay to offer them. Even if you say something wrong, Yuan will not be held accountable at all. Let's pool our strengths to defeat the enemy as soon as possible and enjoy peace and happiness together."
This is the world."
When the words fell, Xu You stood up.
He admonished Yuan Shao: "General, I believe that the well fence or tunnel is just a temporary situation, and it will never become a big thing. If you want to defeat Cao Tao's army, you still have to take advantage of their weaknesses.
Only by taking action can you gain full success.”
Yuan Shaoxiao looked at Xu You and said, "What good plan does Ziyuan have?"
Xu You said to Yuan Shao: "The general has more soldiers, but Cao Tao has fewer soldiers. Although he has excellent soldiers and brave generals, he is ultimately weak and unable to cope with them. Although his food and grass can be supplied at the moment, he is so deadlocked."
If it continues, it will drag on for a long time, and the situation will not be optimistic... If I were Cao Cao or a pottery merchant, I would definitely seek a quick victory! General, do you think this is true?"
Yuan Shao pondered Xu You's words carefully for a while, savored the three flavors and deeply understood his remarks.
"What Ziyuan said is true. Then tell me, for Cao Tao, what is the method of quick victory?"
Xu You raised a finger and said: "For Cao Cao and the pottery merchants, destroying our food and grass is their only chance to defeat the general."
Yuan Shao narrowed his eyes and said, "You mean, luring the enemy with food?"
