Cao Cao waited until Yuan Shao came to Guandu and began to attack the city, and he was far away from the Wuchao granary before he dared to send [-] elite infantry to raid here at night.

Guandu left 5000 troops to defend against Yuan Shao's [-] troops, and he himself took the remaining [-] elite troops to attack Wuchao.

put all one's eggs in one basket!
This is the only way Cao Cao can turn defeat into victory.

When Cao Cao's [-] elite soldiers arrived at Wuchao, Chunyu Qiong, who had [-] troops in his hands, began to waver.

[-] to [-], the advantage is mine!
He did not follow Yuan Shao's orders to guard Wuchao, but left Wuchao's granary on his own initiative, and ran outside the city defenses to fight Cao Cao head-on, just because he was afraid that if Cao Cao ran away, he would lose military merit.

Chun Yuqiong's [-] troops were unexpectedly defeated by Cao Cao's [-] elite troops.

Chunyuqiong, who was in a daze, hurriedly took the rest of the people back to Wuchao City to defend.

……

an hour later
Yuan Shao Daying
"Duke Ming! Something is wrong! Cao Cao attacked Wuchao!" The examiner hurried over to report the news. Neither he nor Yuan Shao expected Xu You to betray Cao Cao's information about Wuchao.

All the counselors discussed a lot, some thought that the army should rush to help Wuchao and wipe out Cao Cao, some thought that they should simply change their home with Cao Cao, if you hit me Wuchao, then I will bypass Guandu and directly hit you Xuchang.

In the end, Yuan Shao made a final decision to send 5 cavalry to support Wuchao, and the remaining [-] people continued to storm Guandu.

……

"Duke Ming! Yuan Shao's reinforcements are coming soon, let's retreat to Guandu!" Cao Cao's adviser Guo Jia suggested.

"Shut up!" Cao Cao rarely lost his temper with his favorite Guo Jia. The situation was too urgent. He reprimanded those soldiers who wanted to retreat: "Unless Yuan Shao's army is in sight now, don't report again. Everyone concentrates on attacking Wuchao, as long as they capture Wuchao, there is hope of winning, if they fail to capture Wuchao, they are just waiting for death, victory or defeat depends on it!"

At this time, Le Jin, the vanguard officer, finally reached the city wall of Wuchao.

"First climber! Happy to advance!"

Le Jin shouted excitedly, beheading a Yuan Jun soldier in front of him.

"Crazy, crazy! Cao Jun is crazy!" Chun Yuqiong has never seen such a desperate style of fighting. Cao Cao's soldiers are too crazy. They are fearless in order to win. They are not like real people, but more like A machine without fear.

These 5000 people are Cao Cao's most elite troops. They were killed from the mountains of corpses and seas of blood that were short of food every day. Since the moment they were born, they have never fought a smooth battle, and every time they have turned against the wind!

As Cao Jun finally entered Wuchao, Cao Cao tried his best, even his bodyguard Xu Chu personally went into battle to kill the enemy.

"The one who will kill you, Xu Chu!"

Xu Chu roared, and slashed Chunyuqiong's neck with a knife. Chunyuqiong spewed out blood, and died with fear on his face.

"Hahahaha!"

Cao Cao laughed loudly, burned Wuchao down, and then left Wuchao with his soldiers and returned to Guandu.

As for Zhang He Gaolan who was ordered to go to Wuchao to help, when they arrived at Wuchao, they found that Cao Cao had long since disappeared.

Because they were worried that their political opponents would take this opportunity to attack them after returning home, making them go to prison and die like Tian Feng, so they simply went straight to Guandu to surrender to Cao Cao.

……

another hour later
Wuchao fled to Yuan Shao's camp in Guandu and conveyed the news that Wuchao was burned by Cao Cao.

But this news only made Yuan Shao frown. He had a lot of food and grass, and Wuchao was burned. He just temporarily withdrew his troops back to Liyang, and then re-adjusted food from Hebei.

But what really made him angry to despair was another piece of news.

"Report! Report to the general! The two generals, Zhang He and Gao Lan, who rushed to help Wuchao, have surrendered to Cao Cao!"

Boom!

Yuan Shao felt that the sky was about to fall, how could such a great advantage situation become like this?

After several hours of siege, he only had more than 4 people left, and Cao Cao subdued Zhang Yun's 1 people, and now there are more than 2 people.

Yuan Jun's soldiers fought less and less, and Cao Jun's soldiers fought more and more. How can they fight?
However, even at this point, even if Wuchao is burned, even if Zhang He and Gao Lan surrender to Cao Cao, Yuan Shao still has the advantage.

[-] against [-], the advantage is still with me!

This is Yuan Shao's background!

"Withdraw troops! Go back to Yecheng, cultivate for three years, and destroy Cao Cao after three years!"

Finally, Yuan Shao calmed down and asked the army to withdraw to Hebei, instead of staying in Guandu to starve to death.

Before leaving, Yuan Shao said lonely again: "The situation really developed as Tian Feng said. I really regret that I didn't listen to him at the beginning. Now he must be mocking my stupidity in prison."

"In order to prevent him from continuing to mock me, let's kill him!"

After all, Yuan Shao ordered Tian Feng to be executed.

Just two hours before Yuan Shao ordered to return to Hebei, Cao Cao was rushing back to Guandu from Wuchao.

It was early morning at that time, the moon was about to set, and the sun had not yet risen.

Twenty miles east of Wuchao
Cao Cao was preparing to return to Guandu with the remnants of the bloody battle.

Tatata!
Many horsemen appeared in the distance in the dark.

"Could it be Yuan Shao's reinforcements? But they didn't go to Wuchao, how could they come here?" Cao Cao wondered, this sneak attack route was formulated by him temporarily, and it is impossible for an inner ghost to leak it to Yuan Shao.

"Go forward and ask, what are their backgrounds?" Cao Cao was very vigilant, and asked a soldier to go up to investigate the origin of this group of strange cavalry.

When the soldier approached, he found that these cavalry were wearing the clothes of Cao Jun soldiers and holding Cao Jun's flag, which seemed to be friendly troops.

"Where did you come from?" Cao Cao's soldiers asked.

"We are from Xuchang, following Mr. Xun's order to come to help Duke Ming!" the young man in charge said so calmly.

After finishing speaking, he also cared about Cao Cao by the way, and asked Cao Cao's soldiers: "How is Duke Ming doing now, have you been injured by Thief Yuan?"

The young man called Yuan Shao a Yuan thief as soon as he opened his mouth. It seemed that he was really an officer of Cao Jun. After all, Yuan Shao's subordinates did not dare to call Yuan Shao a Yuan thief.

"We have won!" Cao Cao's soldiers said happily.

"Long live!"

"God bless!"

The young man also shouted excitedly, and made other people shout excitedly too, rejoicing for Cao Cao's victory.

"It seems that they are indeed friendly troops from Xuchang." Cao Cao's soldiers were no longer suspicious, and returned to Cao Cao to report the news: "Mr. Ming! It is the reinforcements sent by Mr. Xun to support us!"

"Sent by Wen Ruo?" Cao Cao was very pleasantly surprised.

Subsequently, the cavalry was able to approach Cao Cao.

"I'm very pleased that you came to support me, but now the battle is over, go to Guandu with me to resist Yuan Shao's army." Cao Cao ordered to the young officer.

"Yes." The young officer agreed, and then suddenly!

"kill!"

With a loud cry, he led a group of cavalry to attack Cao Cao.

"Guandu has been captured by us, Cao thief is killed!" The young officer was Wang Jue, and he played rumor tricks again, spreading rumors while rushing to kill.

After capturing Xuchang, capturing Xun Yu, and cutting off the grain road between Xuchang and Guandu, Wang Jue rushed to the Guandu battlefield to help. Searching for traces of Cao Cao in the east, he really bumped into Cao Cao who was going home.

"You are Yuan Jun!" Cao Cao was shocked, why did these people suddenly appear here?

"Hahaha! Thief Cao! Do you still know me?" In the crowd, Lu Bu wiped off the black ashes on his face and laughed loudly at Cao Cao.

"Lü Bu!!!" Cao Cao was shocked, why did Lu Bu appear here?

"Don't hurt my lord!" Xu Chuhu stood in front of Cao Cao and stopped Lu Bu who was rushing to kill him.

"Whoever blocks me will die!" Lu Bu roared loudly, and rushed towards Xu Chu, the battle was imminent.
