Chapter 1021 Plan
Arriving at the hillside outside Changli City, Cao Cao ordered the march to stop.

A team of 3000 people is not a small number, especially the uniform cavalry, which is even more powerful when running, and the billowing smoke and dust can be seen from a long distance.So if you go any further, your whereabouts may be exposed, which will make the defenders in the city step up their vigilance.

In this way, it will be difficult.

Therefore, the most urgent task is to send people to the city to meet with Tianliu.

So Mao Jie disguised himself, brought Cao Cao's autographed letter, and sneaked into Changli County.

After asking a little about the people in the city, I learned where the Tianfu was.

Arriving at the gate of the Tian Mansion, Mao Jie claimed to be visiting from an old friend. After presenting Cao Cao's letter, he was invited into the mansion within a short while, and met the contemporary head of the Tian family——Tian Liu.

Tian Liu is forty-five years old this year, with a slightly shy belly, a loose dark purple gown, a jade belt around his waist, and his clothes are all made of high-quality silk, which looks like a rich man.

After Tian Liu learned of Mao Jie's identity, he received Mao Jie very warmly. He ordered people to bring tea and water, and arranged banquets and fine wines. Get him and Mao Jie down.

After eating two cups of wine, Tian Liu put down the cup and asked, "Where is Ah Man now?"

A Man is Cao Cao's nickname. When he was young, Cao Cao was also a rebellious boy. Like other rich sons and brothers, he would fly around all day long.Seeing this, his uncle felt that it would be embarrassing for Cao Cao to go on like this, so he hoped that Cao Song, as a father, could discipline Cao Cao strictly.

When Cao Cao heard the news, he was worried about being punished, so he had a plan.

One day, when Cao Cao met his uncle on the road, he threw his head down and twitched on the ground, as if he had suffered a stroke.His uncle was shocked, and hurriedly ordered someone to send Cao Cao to the hospital, and then ran to tell Cao Song.

When Cao Song heard that his son had suffered a stroke, he immediately put down everything he was doing and came to Cao Cao.

As a result, Cao Cao was naturally alive and kicking, as if nothing had happened.His father asked with a dark face on the spot: "Meng De, your uncle said you had a stroke, why did you recover so quickly?"

Cao Cao suddenly felt terribly wronged, his acting skills were so poor, he said in a particularly uncomfortable way: "Father, the child didn't have a stroke. I guess it's because my uncle doesn't like the child, so he slandered me."

After that, when Cao Cao's uncle told Cao Song about Cao Cao's character, Cao Song didn't believe him at all.

Until one day, Cao Song saw Cao Cao mingling with some down-and-out knight-errants on the street, drinking and singing, which was completely inappropriate, and he shouted angrily: "Ah!"

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, thinking in his heart: Father is really confused, my nickname is not Ah Man!
But Cao's father said: "It's you, Cao Mengde, who deceives the superior and the inferior!"

Thus, the name 'A Man' came from this.

Nowadays, most of the people who can call Cao Cao with "A Man" are old acquaintances when they were young.

Mao Jie also knew that the business was important, so he put down the bamboo chopsticks in his hand, cupped his hands towards Tian Liu and said, "If you go back to Tian's Patriarch, my Patriarch has already gone outside the city, so we will place the team on the south hillside for now."

"In the end, it's Ah Man who has a meticulous mind."

Tian Liu praised, stroked his chin beard, and continued: "To be honest, at first I was really afraid that you would come to Chang and worry about fighting Lu Jun to the death if you got hotheaded. You know, Lu Jun occupies the city wall. There are also heavy guards, and there is almost no way for you to attack by force."

"Patriarch Tian is right, and my lord has also said that Changli City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but a strong attack is not enough, and the only way to do it is by outsmarting." Mao Jie nodded in agreement, and at the same time looked at Tian Liu, hoping that he could give good advice. .

"Don't worry, Meng De has my help, and Changli City is just a pocket. What's more, Lu Bu caused my Tian family to lose thousands of acres of land and hundreds of thousands of family property in vain. How can I not avenge such a great enmity?" !"

Tian Liu's face was full of anger, and he was gnashing his teeth, wishing he could kill Lu Bu on the spot.

Later, Tian Liu gave Mao Jie a brief overview of the city's defenses.

There are [-] defenders in Changli City, led by Pushe Xiaowei Ma Zhong.Every ten days, grain will be transported to Dongwuyang to replenish Lu Bu's army, and [-] elite guards will be sent along the way to ensure the safe arrival of grain.

In another six days, there should be a new team transporting food out of the city.

At that time, it is the best time to start.

The two had a secret negotiation in the hall, and the time passed quietly without knowing it, as if in the blink of an eye, it was dusk.

Seeing that it was getting late, Tian Liu originally wanted to keep Mao Jie to stay overnight in the mansion.

But Mao Jie said that the matter was too big to be delayed for a moment, so he said goodbye to Tianliu and went out of the city before the curfew.

The moon has risen, and the shadows of the trees in the mountains and forests are mottled.

The temporary station Cao Cao chose was extremely hidden. If he hadn't known it in advance, it would be difficult for Mao Jie to find Cao Cao.

"Xiaoxian, how are things going?" Seeing Mao Jie coming back, Cao Cao handed over a bowl of hot soup.

Although this move was small, it moved Mao Jie very much. He took the soup bowl, took a sip, and then said slowly: "My lord, I have fulfilled my mission, and Patriarch Tian has been oppressed by Lu Jun for a long time. , willing to help us."

"Do you have a plan?" Man Chong next to him asked eagerly.

Mao Jie nodded, and told the whole plan made by Yota Liu.

Six days later, the defenders in the city will transport food and grass out of the city.

On that day, Tian Liu will lie about his birthday and invite Ma Zhong and all the important generals in the city to a banquet at his mansion. At that time, he only needs to pour medicine into the wine, and the generals will lose their command. The defenders will be nothing but a mess .

But just in case, Tian Liu still made an appointment with Cao Cao, and decided to do it when he was ugly.

Tianliu's brother-in-law was guarding the southern city gate. When he arrived in Chou, he would first wave the white flag as a signal, and then open the city gate wide to welcome Cao's army into the city.

As long as they attack the city, the defenders without general command are nothing to worry about.

"it is good!"

After hearing the plan, Cao Cao punched his fist in the palm of his hand, his tiny eyes sparkling.

As long as Changli can be captured and the grain piled up by Lu Jun can be burned with a big fire, by then, even if Lu Bu has great supernatural powers, he will have to retreat obediently.

As for Lv Bu's anger, Cao Cao is not afraid, at worst, he will abandon the city before the time comes. Changli without food is just an empty city, so it's okay to give it to Lv Bu.

"The order goes on. In the next few days, you must stay alert during the day and be vigilant around you. Don't let Lu Jun sentry to find any traces. At night, you should recharge your batteries so that you can rest. After six days, we will go to Changli City Li Qinggong!"

Cao Cao uttered bold words, his eyes were hot, and he seemed to be within reach of Changli City.
