Chapter 166
Yuan Jun camp.
"According to the secret report of the officials who secretly defected to us, in the past six months, Cao Cao has reduced the number of soldiers by more than 10,000 people, but only 2,000 people have been replenished. "
"Cao Thief is short of soldiers, as long as we spend another three or five months with him, Cao Thief's soldiers will be reduced to the point where they are not enough to hold the fortress. "
Feng Ji held the secret report in his hand and said proudly.
Yuan Shao stroked his long hair lightly, the haze on his face gradually dissipated, and there was a little more smile that he hadn't seen for a long time.
"Cao thief, even if you get two million pieces of rice!"
"The old man doesn't believe it, you can conjure rice, and you can also conjure soldiers out of thin air. "
Yuan Shao sneered.
That's when it happened.
The subordinate general Zhang He broke into the big tent and shouted in a trembling voice: "My lord, Ju Yi has sent an emergency report for help, Cao Jun is storming the black nest, please send troops and horses to rescue him immediately!"
There was an uproar in the tent.
The sneer on Yuan Shao's face instantly turned into shock, and he shouted: "How did the Cao thief know that Wuchao was my grain camp, and he actually led the army to sneak attack?"
Zhang He shook his head and said: "I don't know the last general, but the Cao thief is indeed attacking the black nest, the situation is in crisis, please send troops to rescue as soon as possible!"
Yuan Shao's expression was rigid, and his face was already occupied by astonishment and suspicion.
"Our grain camp is located in the black nest, and there are only a few people who know it, how can the Cao thief calculate it, this doesn't make sense!"
Feng Ji was also panicked, and his face was full of disbelief.
The monarchs and ministers of the Yuan family fell into a state of shock.
Fu Zhu calmed down first, and said hurriedly: "Lord, Wuchao has put all our grain and grass, once it is destroyed by Cao thieves, the consequences are unimaginable, please send troops to rescue immediately!"
Yuan Shao was awakened, and he had to give an order.
"Lord, I thought I shouldn't have gone to the food camp!"
Feng Ji sang the opposite.
Frustrated's face sank: "If we don't save the black nest, the grain and grass will be destroyed, and our 200,000 army will definitely collapse and collapse without a fight!"
Feng Ji sneered: "Cao thief sneak attack Wuchao with elite, Guandu's main camp must be empty, our army takes the opportunity to attack Guandu, it will be broken in one fell swoop, even if Cao thief burns our grain and grass, what can he do." "
Yuan Shao originally wanted to save Wuchao, but after hearing what Feng Ji said, he suddenly changed his mind.
"Cao Cao dares to sneak attack Wuchao, he is definitely not afraid that we will take advantage of the weakness to attack Guandu, and we may not be able to break through the Cao army's barriers. "
"If Guandu can't be broken and the grain and grass of Wuchao are destroyed again, everything will be over!"
Frustrated, his voice trembling.
Feng Ji was-for-tat, and he advocated attacking the black nest.
The two who don't deal with each other are fighting for a while.
Yuan Shao hesitated for a while, whose advice should he follow.
That's when it happened.
Outside the tent, there was a cacophony, interrupting the argument between their kings and ministers.
Yan Liang broke into the big tent and looked panicked.
"My lord, there are hundreds of soldiers in Wuchao, and they have just fled back to the camp. "
"They brought back the heads of Guo Tu and Ju Yi, saying that Cao Yuan was calculated for Cao Cao, and all our grain and grass were stored in Wuchao. "
"Cao Cao has already broken through the black nest and burned our grain and grass clean!"
A thunderbolt thundered in the big tent.
Yuan Shao's face froze.
Feng Ji and Fu Zhu didn't argue, and the two were stunned and shocked.
None of them expected that the black nest would fall so quickly.
Juyi Guotu was beheaded, and 10,000 troops were destroyed.
One million pieces of grain and grass were burned by Cao Cao in this way.
That was all the grain and grass that Yuan Shang had scavenged from the four states without any effort.
Once burned, there will be no more food to collect!
The rations of the army of 200,000 will be cut off!
"How is this possible, Cao Yuan's little thief, how can he calculate our grain storage land?"
"It's impossible, it's impossible~~"
Feng Ji muttered to himself, lost his soul and was frightened, and the whole person was like crazy.
Yuan Shao's fists clenched tighter and tighter, his teeth almost gritted, and the shock in his eyes gradually turned into grief and despair.
"The sky has no eyes, why are you treating me like this Yuan Shao, why-"
Yuan Shao let out a cry of grief and anger.
His eyes darkened, he spat out a mouthful of black blood, and fell to the ground again.
"Lord!"
Inside the big tent, there was an exclamation.
The news of the burning of grain and grass in Guandu soon spread throughout the camps of Yuan's army.
200,000 Yuan troops, overnight, the army's heart fell to the bottom and fell into panic.
......
Guandu Barrier.
When the sky is bright.
Cao Hong, Le Jin, Li Dian and other generals left behind.
Including Cao Yuan, Guo Jia, Cheng Yu and other ministers have all gathered at the south gate of Daying.
Everyone looked forward to it, and their expressions were more or less anxious.
Only Cao Yuan was yawning, sleepy-eyed, and he couldn't see any worry at all.
"Ziyou Junshi is so easy, it must be a matter of calculation, and this battle will definitely be won, then we should have nothing to worry about. "
Seeing Cao Yuan like this, everyone looked at each other, and they were all a little relieved.
"Sikong, it's Sikong back!"
Lejin shouted excitedly.
Everyone was in good spirits, and they looked at it with interest, and sure enough, they saw a team of people galloping towards them.
The gate of the camp was wide open, and the soldiers and horses entered the camp.
Cao Cao led 7,000 soldiers and entered the camp in triumph.
"Sikong is finally back, this sneak attack on the black nest is done?"
Guo Jia stepped forward and asked impatiently.
Cao Cao laughed out loud and asked rhetorically: "Fengxiao, have you ever seen Ziyou's strategy when it was unsuccessful?"
These words clearly mean that the sneak attack on the black nest has been successful.
When the camp was neutral, the pot exploded, and the generals were boiling.
Guo Jia said happily: "Millions of grains and grass have been burned, and the Yuan camp must be panicked at this moment, and the collapse of the 200,000 army is imminent!"
The generals laughed.
"Ziyou, I said earlier, you Cao Yuan alone is better than a million male soldiers!"
Cao Cao turned over and dismounted, patting his son on the shoulder and praising him.
Cao Yuan smiled faintly, but said: "Sikong, most of the Yuan camp has already collapsed, and there is still a five-way attack plan here, let's strike while the iron is hot and defeat the 200,000 Yuan army in one fell swoop!"
......
Night.
Guandu Battalion.
Tens of thousands of Cao soldiers were fully armed and high-spirited.
After half a year, tonight will be a decisive battle.
Every soldier is full of enthusiasm, just looking forward to killing tonight.
The moon passes in the middle of the sky.
Cao Cao rode his horse to the camp gate.
The officers and men of the three armies clenched their swords and guns in their hands, and their fighting intentions burned wildly in their eyes.
Cao Cao drew his sword in his hand and pointed at Yuan Ying: "Open the gate of the barrier, the five-way army, pour out, break the Yuan camp, and kill Yuan Shao!"
"Break the Yuan camp!"
"Kill Yuan Shao!"
Thousands of soldiers shouted in unison, shaking the heavens and the earth.
The gates of the camp slammed open.
Li Dian, Le Jin, Xiahou Yuan, Yu Ban, Gao Shun!
The generals of the Cao Army of the Five Roads, each with 8,000 soldiers, rushed out of each camp gate.
The five-way army swept towards Yuan's camp.
"Zhao Zilong, where is Zhang Wenyuan!"
Cao Cao shouted.
The two generals stepped forward to obey the order.
Cao Cao said sharply: "You two lead all my cavalry to dispatch, act according to the plan of the Ziyou military division, and you must not let Yuan Shao escape back to Hebei!"
Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao received the order with anger.
Five thousand Cao army iron horsemen rolled out, bypassed the frontal Yuan camp, and galloped towards the direction of the Yellow River further north.
Cao Cao and the strategists ascended the tower.
Looking through the moonlight, the figures of the soldiers of the Fifth Route Cao Army were approaching Yuan Ying.
Cao Cao raised his long sword and shouted: "Light the beacon fire!"
The beacon fire was lit, and the five pillars of flame rushed into the night sky.
The order for a general attack was given.
The earth-shattering sound of killing sounded almost simultaneously outside the camp of the Yuan army, which stretched for several miles.
The five generals of the Cao Army, the soldiers and horses of the headquarters of each command, swept towards the Yuan camp.
Cao Cao patted Cao Yuan and said with a proud smile: "Ziyou, tonight I will use your five-way strategy to end this decisive battle between the north and the south!"
Cao Yuan smiled faintly.
The father and son stood side by side, aiming to win the gaze, looking at Yuan Ying from afar.
