Chapter 5

Cao Cao's camp.

Handsome account.

Several days have passed since he returned from Su Chen's camp. During these times, Cao Cao has been waiting patiently.

this night.

Cao Cao was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, but couldn't sleep.

Without him.

Food and grass are being consumed every day, and once it is exhausted, there are only two results waiting for him.

Fight to the death or withdraw to Xuchang.

For him, both results are dead ends and difficult to crack.

"Come on, call Xu Chu."

Cao Cao couldn't sleep, so he called Xu Chu and walked outside the camp.

He had no armor, and put on a cape at will. He was about to put on shoes when Xu Chu walked in from outside the tent and asked nervously, "My lord, did you find an assassin?"

No wonder Xu Chu asked so.

After all, Xu Chu slept next to Cao Cao when he was resting at night on weekdays. Unless it was an important matter, Cao Cao would not have the heart to disturb his loyal guard.

He really couldn't sleep tonight, so he ordered someone to wake Xu Chu up.

"Let's go, follow me to the baggage camp, I'm always restless tonight, I'm going to see that Mr. Su." Cao Cao shouted at Xu Chu wearing his shoes.

"My lord, if you want me to tell me, why is it so troublesome, I'll bring that kid to you right now." Xu Chu said carelessly.

"Don't lose your courtesy." Cao Cao shook his head.

"My lord, I think that kid is talking nonsense. It's been a few days, and Yuan Jun has not responded at all. Why should we be polite to him."

Cao Cao put on his shoes, got up and looked at Xu Chu, just as he was about to speak, there was the sound of hurried footsteps outside the tent.

Soon, an armored guard with a knife walked in and knelt down on one knee.

"My lord, a man dressed as a scribe came outside. He said he was your childhood friend and wanted to meet the lord."

When Cao Cao heard this, his expression changed.

Childhood friend, and still coming to him at such a late hour?

Could it be that Xu You is here.

He breathed a sigh of relief and laughed loudly: "Mr. Su is really a genius! Quick, bring him in... No, I'll pick him up in person."

Say it.

Cao Cao paused for a moment, took off the shoes he had just put on, and ran out barefoot.

"Ziyuan, is Ziyuan here?"

Seeing the familiar figure from a distance, Cao Cao accelerated, his feet ran fast, and in the blink of an eye, he crossed more than ten meters and came to Xu You.

"Brother Meng De, stay safe." Xu You said with a pale face.

"Ziyuan, what's wrong with you?" Cao Cao couldn't help but be surprised when he saw Xu You's strange posture and pained expression.

"Oh, then Yuan Benchu ​​listened to the villain's slander, saying that I was secretly colluding with you, Cao Mengde, and he would charge me twenty, confiscate my property, and imprison me at home. If I didn't see the situation wrong, I would have fled at night. I'm afraid Brother Meng De, you can only see my head." Xu You said with a sad expression.

He is also making an excuse for his own back against the Lord.

It was not that he wanted to betray the master and the enemy, but Yuan Shao forced him to do so.

Morally, at least, it makes sense.

"Hmph, Yuan Ben had no eyes at first, but he suspected that such a good talent as Ziyuan was really stupid." Cao Cao scolded Yuan Shao following Xu You's words, and then grabbed Xu You's hand affectionately, "Quick, you are injured. , go to my tent to rest first."

"Go and invite the medical officer, Xu Chu, you go in person, the sooner the better."

Xu Chu cupped his hands: "No."

And Cao Cao took Xu You's arm and walked towards his handsome tent.

"Brother Meng De..." Xu You looked down and saw that Cao Cao had come barefoot, and was immediately moved, feeling that he was being valued more than ever.

Immediately, there were tears in his eyes.

Of course, it also has something to do with the torn wound on his butt.

It hurts.

The more it hurts, the deeper his hatred for Yuan Shao.

Yuan Benchu, if you are unkind, don't blame me for being unrighteous.

After half an hour.

In Cao Cao's tent, Xu You, who had re-applied the medicine, was resting on Cao Cao's bed, and looked at Cao Cao, who was guarding the bed, and instantly became a little flirtatious.

People like Cao Cao, shouldn't they also stand in front of Xu You?

"Brother Meng De, do you want to defeat that Yuan Shao?" Xu You asked.

Hearing this, Cao Cao's expression immediately became serious.

"It's natural. I have been in a confrontation with Yuan Benchu ​​for more than a year. Let's not hide it from Ziyuan. In a few days, our army will run out of food and grass." Cao Cao said truthfully.

"Hehe, Meng De, you don't tell me about it, I know that the letter you sent to Xuchang was robbed by me." Xu You said proudly.

"There is such a thing." Cao Cao said in surprise.

Just in my heart is smiling.

"I handed over your letter to Yuan Benchu ​​and asked him to divide his troops to attack Guandu and Xuchang, but he didn't listen, Master Yong!" Xu You said with anger in his tone.

"If this is the case, I will definitely lose." Cao Cao's face showed a deep shock.

Of course, it was not because of Xu You's suggestion, nor because of what Yuan Benchu ​​would have done if he adopted the suggestion to attack.

But this scene is exactly the same as what Su Chen said.

It was as if Su Chen had anticipated all this in advance.

This calculation on the human heart is really terrifying.

"That's natural."

Xu Youhui was wrong, he thought that Cao Cao's expression was because of his plan, and immediately said proudly, "Brother Meng De, it is not difficult to defeat Yuan Benchu, just burn the food and grass of his army of [-]. "

Having said this, he deliberately paused and looked at Cao Cao.

"I also asked Ziyuan to help me and tell me the place where Yuan Benchu's grain was stored." Cao Cao narrowed his eyes, and his eyes were full of brilliance.

Seeing that Cao Cao lowered his posture, Xu Youcai said slowly: "Most of Yuan Shao's grain storage is in Wuchao."

heard.

Cao Cao heaved a sigh of relief.

After planning for so long, I finally know.

"Okay, Ziyuan, you can rest here, I'll come and see you tomorrow."

"It's not too late, Xu Chu, you immediately convene the generals to gather at the central tent."

"By the way, don't forget to tell Mr. Su about this."

"He is the biggest hero in this battle."

Having said that, Cao Cao walked out with Xu Chu.

Xu You on the bed was stunned.

I offered a plan to set fire to Wuchao, but it wasn't the first merit?

(Anyone watching? Ask for flowers, ask for evaluation tickets, there are none now.) .

Chapter 6

late at night.

Su Chen fell asleep soon.

He suddenly woke up from his sleep when he heard the sound of hooves around the camp.

After wearing it, I went out to check it out.

However, he saw a black torrent slowly leaving the camp by the moonlight. He estimated that there were about [-] or [-] people.

"It seems that Xu You has entered Cao's camp. This is to take advantage of the night to burn Wuchao."

Su Chen smiled.

After burning Wuchao, the Battle of Guandu is basically over, and you can follow Cao Cao back to Xuchang and enjoy the happiness.

"Mr. Su is a god."

Suddenly, a hearty laugh sounded behind him, and Cao Cao walked over with Xu Chu.

Behind the two, there are several logistical soldiers.

With hot wine and meat.

"God can't be counted, it's just a humble plan." Su Chen waved his hand and said, "Also, Duke Cao, please don't call me Mr., I really can't bear it."

"Look, I've forgotten how happy I am." Cao Cao patted his forehead, walked over happily, took Su Chen's hand, and was extremely affectionate, "Ning Yi, hurry up with me into the camp, it's cold outside."

It is now December, and the cold wind from the north is blowing savagely, and it is indeed a bit biting.

Xu Chu followed behind, looking at Cao Cao and Su Chen again, only to feel that the weapon in his hand was a little cold, so he hurriedly arranged his armor and put some cloth on it.

Su Chen followed Cao Cao into the tent, and after adding a fire tray, the entire tent instantly warmed up.
