Chapter 98: The Great Army Goes Out to Annihilate Yuan Shao in One Fell Swoop!!

At the same time, Xuzhou, Pengcheng, banquet hall.

Lü Bu and Chen Gonggang sent Yuan Shao’s envoy away, and Lü Bu’s face turned a little joyful and said aloud.

“Gongtai, what do you think of Yuan Benchu’s proposal, if you fight against Cao Mengde with him, you can win the land of a state.”

“At that time, if I can control the land of the two states, my strength will be greatly improved, and maybe I can still seek great things later.”

Looking at the overjoyed Lv Bu, Chen Gong shook his head slightly, sighed secretly, and said slowly.

“Lord Qiqi, Yuan Benchu and I and others fought together, but how is the strength and strength of my waiting?”

“And how to guarantee that after the conquest of Cao Mengde, he can fulfill his promise, and I will not lose the army in vain.”

“There is also the worst situation, that is, unloading the grind and killing the donkey, directly waving troops in Xuzhou, and subduing me and others.”

Chen Gong’s words were like a basin of cold water poured on Lü Bu’s head, and even if Lü Bu was dull, he still reacted.

Although he now controls Xuzhou, his military strength is far lower than that of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, and he cannot seize the initiative at all.

If one side wins a big victory, the remaining troops will not be weaker than Xuzhou’s troops, Lü Bu said sarcastically.

“Gongtai, how do you think I should arrange it, I’m afraid it’s not good to refuse Yuan Benchu’s envoy in one mouth.”

Listening to what Lü Bu said had calmed down, Chen Gong relaxed and said after a slight groan.

“Lord Qiqi, as I mentioned before, the most important thing now is to recruit soldiers and accumulate strength.”

“Verbally, I still have to promise Yuan Benchu’s envoy, and I can’t offend either side until I am not sure who wins or loses on both sides.”

“But when both of them are defeated after a stalemate, I can only play the greatest role when I send troops, and of course, it is inevitable that I will fall into the well.”

After listening to it, Lu Bu’s face regained a smile, such an arrangement can obtain the greatest benefits, replied.

“Gongtai, then I will go and tell Yuan Benchu’s envoy that Xuzhou’s political affairs still depend on you!”

After speaking, Lv Bu swaggered out, and Chen Gong looked at Lv Bu’s departing back, and was slightly worried.

Now Lü Bu will leave all political affairs to himself, and he will also leave it to himself when he is undecided, but what if someone provokes it.

After all, Chen Gong didn’t know how long Lü Bu’s trust in him could last, so Chen Gong sighed quietly and got busy.

A few days later, Jizhou, Anping, Prefecture Pastoral Mansion.

The envoy who sent Xuzhou had returned, and after Yuan Shao received the reply, he summoned the three strategists to the study.

“Lü Fengxian’s side has already received a reply, and will send troops with me and others at that time, and according to the envoy, Lü Fengxian is very happy.”

“Promised to give him a state of land, even without shunning, the tone is really not small, thinking that he can eat!”

Yuan Shao said in a deep voice, a trace of disdain appeared on his face, and the same was true of the three of them, Guo Tu said with a low groan.

“Lord Qixi, Lu Fengxian is arrogant and arrogant, and he will definitely deal with this matter, but I will take a little precaution later.”

“Lu Fengxian is capricious, but as long as his side makes any moves, Cao Mengde must send troops to watch out.”

“As long as I can contain part of Cao Mengde’s forces, I can eat Xuzhou later.”

After Guo Tu finished speaking, a smile appeared on everyone’s faces, but he just wanted to confuse Lü Bu and prevent him from helping Cao Cao.

As for the fulfillment of promises after the war, the excuse is easy to find, and after a moment of thought, he said.

“Lord Qi, many families in Yanzhou and Yuzhou have already made some intentions and are willing to act as I wait.”

“Cao Mengde trusts Cao Zizhan, and some Hanmen are in important positions and do not use the children of the family, so those families have deep grievances.”

“If Cao Mengde does his best, those families will directly cause trouble, so that Cao Mengde can’t take care of each other.”

When the frustrated words fell, pride already appeared on Yuan Shao’s face, and the advantage was obvious now.

Once he sent his own troops, Cao Cao would face internal worries and external troubles, and Lü Bu was watching from Xuzhou, and Yuan Shao immediately ordered.

“Summoning all the soldiers to prepare for the expedition, the grain and grass should be allocated, and where should I send troops from?”

Yuan Shao looked at everyone and said, Tian Feng was responsible for the allocation of grain and grass, and said with joy on his face.

“Lord Qi, the required grain and grass have been prepared, you can set off with the army, just wait for the order of the Lord Lord.”

“In addition, our army has a total of 300,000 troops left behind, and it is recommended to march on two routes.”

“One marched from Yanzhou, and the other sent troops directly from Jizhou, directly attacking Xudu, where Cao Ying was located, from Guandu.”

After Tian Feng finished speaking, he gave Frustrated a look, after all, they are all Jizhou factions, and Frustrated said after understanding.

“Lord Qiyu, although the Cao army has three states, it has more defensive lines, and sending troops from Yanzhou can contain a lot of enemy troops.”

“Starting from Jizhou to save grain and grass, and Guandu is relatively close to Xudu, after our army arrives, it can directly launch a decisive battle with the enemy army.”

“Your Majesty is in Xudu today, and Cao Mengde should defend Xudu before the defeat of the army, and our army is in the city, but it can be decided in a battle.”

Frustrated and Tian Feng’s proposal, Yuan Shao nodded in deep understanding, Guo Tu saw this and did not refute, Yuan Shao said proudly.

“Pass on the order, tomorrow’s army will be deployed, destroy Cao Mengde in one fell swoop, and sweep the world after unifying the north!”

“No!”

Xu Du, Cao Mansion, Council Chamber.

Cao Cao led a group of strategists to gather in the council room, Cao Cao looked around at everyone, his face appeared solemn, and said.

“I received news that the enemy army has already allocated grain and grass, ready to attack us and so on, and the number of troops may be as high as hundreds of thousands.”

“Yuan Benchu is menacing this time, he wants to fight to the death with me, Wen He, there is news from Xuzhou.”

Cao Cao’s voice fell, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly froze, and Jia Xuan said after bowing his hands.

“Lord Qiyu, Jinyiwei has received news that Yuan Benchu has sent envoys to Xuzhou to contact Lu Fengxian.”

“Lu Fengxian has verbally reached a consensus with Yuan Benchu, but he has not mobilized grain and grass, and he should not send troops in the near future.”

After Jia Xu finished speaking, hearing that Xuzhou did not move, Cao Cao’s face eased a little, and Cao Chen said after a slight groan.

“Father, Lu Fengxian is capricious, and Chen Gongtai plans for him, and he will not send troops until the situation is clear.”

“It is very likely that we are observing the situation between us and the Yuan army, and when our army is balanced or inferior, it may fall to a rock.”

“But I will send soldiers and horses to garrison in advance, just in case of emergency, and then settle accounts with Yuan after I have suffered a big defeat.”

Cao Cao nodded when he heard this, Lü Bu’s troops were only tens of thousands, which could not play a key role, and turned to Xun Yu and asked.

“Wen Ruo, how many troops arrived before summoning Chang’an and Shouchun?”

“Lord Qiyu, General Wen Yuan has arrived from Shouchun with 50,000 infantry, and General Zixiao has led the rest of the soldiers and horses to garrison.”

“General Wen Qian and General Zhang Xiu led 50,000 Liangzhou iron cavalry, and set out from Chang’an a few days ago, while General Zilian was responsible for staying behind.”

“In addition, Zhongde will come with the army, Chang’an has already entered the regular, not hundreds of thousands of troops to attack, it is all solid.”

Xun Yu replied with a calm face, this battle is related to the belonging of the north, it is of great significance, and he has to go all out.

Cao Cao had already discussed with Cao Chen to concentrate his forces to fight Yuan Shao, and Cao Cao continued.

“Now Xudu still has a total of 100,000 soldiers and horses, plus 250,000 new troops trained by the Qingzhou Yellow Turban.”

“In this battle, our army has a total of 450,000 soldiers available, but we must leave 50,000 infantry and 20,000 cavalry to guard against the Xuzhou mutiny.”

“The overall strength is not weaker than Yuan Benchu, coupled with sufficient food and grass, it is completely possible to fight, but you must know the enemy’s marching arrangement!”

After Cao Cao’s words fell, everyone’s faces showed battle intent, and Guo Jia’s eyes flashed a brilliant light and said.

“Lord Qiyu, the enemy army moves hundreds of thousands of troops, and it should attack from two routes.”

“One is to start from the northern border of Yanzhou and contain Miaocai and General Xu Rong, thereby threatening the entire territory of Yanzhou.”

“The other should be to send troops from Jizhou, cross the river and march directly to Guandu to fight our army to the death.”

Guo Jia paused slightly when he said this, and everyone nodded with deep understanding, without objection.

Especially since Guandu is very close to Xudu and can directly hit the belly of Cao Ying, Yuan Jun naturally won’t miss it, Guo Jia continued.

“I talked to Shizi before, northern Yanzhou should give up, and these days the people have begun to evacuate.”

“General Miaocai will also withdraw his troops, giving the enemy the illusion of our army being timid, and at the same time avoiding the stretch of our army’s battle line too long.”

“After the enemy received the news of the emptiness in northern Yanzhou, the army that rushed to Guandu will definitely wait for a while, and the whole army will be peaceful.”

Listening to Guo Jia’s words, a brilliant light flashed in everyone’s eyes, and Cao Chen and Guo Jia looked at each other and smiled.

The enemy’s offensive line, the two have already discussed several times, coupled with Jinyiwei’s investigation and confirmation, it has been determined that they will not be separated from ten grandchildren.

And Cao Chen was even more directly sure, after all, this was the battle of Guandu that decided Cao Yuan’s life and death, Cao Chen said loudly.

“Our army must now begin to deploy grain and grass, and at the same time begin to transfer troops to the border, ready to meet the battle at any time.”

“At the same time, General Miaocai and others who withdrew from northern Yanzhou formed a stubborn defense line first.”

“After the enemy army arrives, I will adjust the strategy according to the actual situation, either attack or defend.”

Cao Chen stopped when he said this, Cao Cao looked at everyone, his face became solemn, and said in a deep voice.

“In addition, while I wait for the army to attack, there will definitely be restless families coming out, so we must take precautions.”

“Xu Du will be handed over to Wen Ruo and Wen He, if there is a troublemaker, if the case is serious, there will be no mercy!”

“This battle is of great significance, I will lead the army with Zizhan and destroy Yuan Benchu’s army in one fell swoop!”

“No!”
