Three Kingdoms: Starting from zero, a wealthy party

Chapter 221 The Eve of the Great War
This bastard can't pick another time, he has to pick this time!
Looking at Yuan Shao on the swearing-in platform with a passionate expression, he looked helpless, and chose to walk up step by step, and handed over the remonstrance in his hand to Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao put the saber back on his waist, he didn't ask the source of the remonstrance, he still had something in his heart, took it from Xu You's hand, and started to read it.

After reading it, he was very angry in his heart, and he threw the bamboo slips on the ground, "Tian Feng is insulting me again, he asked me to truce, and it was the eve of the war, yet he is still mourning." Yin, disturb my army's morale!"

Xu You, who was standing by the side, sighed, he had nothing to say to Tian Feng's brain, so he couldn't use his brain, and don't keep touching the lord's bad luck, otherwise, he would surely die.

Sure enough, what he was worried about happened. In order to express himself, Yuan Shao's youngest son, Yuan Shang, directly stood up and said, "I want to pay homage to my father, the heaven, the earth, and the ancestors. I still need a sacrificial flag. Please use it as a sacrifice." Tian Feng's head sacrifices the flag to strengthen our army."

After Xu You heard it, he was shocked and directly expressed his objection: "No, no. My lord, this is absolutely impossible."

"At present, the battle has not yet begun, but we kill the subordinates first. This may not be a good omen for our expedition to wipe out that Cao thief!"

He knew very well what Tian Feng would end up with in the end. He would definitely die, but he couldn't die today. Today was the day when the army went out to fight. In any case, he couldn't use the blood of his subjects to commemorate the victory of this war.

After hearing what Xu You said, Yuan Shao also felt that it made sense, and then asked, "What do you think?"

When Xu You heard Yuan Shao's question, he felt happy. He didn't expect that Yuan Shao had the same thought in his heart, and he didn't want to kill Tian Feng. Handed it back again.

Xu You said: "In my stupid opinion, it's better to wait for us to win a big victory, and when we come back triumphantly, we have to let that pedantic, short-sighted, short-sighted little man Tian Feng, who usually only talks boastfully, to see for himself. Thank you, my lord, for your brilliant achievements and great achievements."

"At that time, my lord, it's not too late for you to let him commit suicide."

Yuan Shao was very happy after hearing this, and said: "Okay! After I take his head, put his head and Cao thief's head together, and burn them all."

Xu You flattered and flattered: "It's so good, it's so wonderful."

After hearing this, Yuan Shao sneered, "Xu You, send the order, let the drums out!"

Xu You took the order and shouted to all the soldiers: "My lord has an order, beat the drums!"

The army is mighty, ready to go.

Yuan Shao sat on his unique reclining chair and followed the army slowly.

Xu You came to his side on horseback, and said happily: "My lord, my first army set out on the road at Chenshi. It was already past noon, and the army behind had just left the city. It was nearly a hundred li behind. "

He continued to praise and said: "My lord, the army that is pouring out like today is like a tide. It is really rare in ancient times, and it is a wonder in the world."

"Hahaha..." Yuan Shao was a little flustered by what he said, and said with a smile: "I think Cao Cao should know our army's movements now, and I hope he won't be frightened to death."

After the two joked for a while, Xu You started talking about the war and said, "My lord, this place is more than 130 miles away from Xuchang, the capital of Cao Cao, and more than 80 miles away from Guandu."

"According to the scout report, Cao Cao brought all the chariot tents, soldiers and horses, and luggage along the way into Xuchang. From this, it can be seen that he has already made preparations."

The words were full of worries, but they couldn't see any of these on the expressions of the two of them.

Yuan Shao had a plan in mind, he immediately ordered the army to go to Guandu and go down to the stronghold, and divide into three camps to form a mutual support.

The soldiers took orders, then accelerated their marching speed, and marched towards Guandu.

In the city of Xuchang, Cao Cao listened to Cao Ren report Yuan Shao's situation in front of him, saying that Yuan Shao was sworn in as a teacher in Jizhou, and led all the soldiers and horses to set off three days ago, heading towards Xuchang.

Yuan Shao's three sons all helped out, and all of them were vying to be the vanguard. Yuan Jun had a cavalry formation, a bow and crossbow formation, an iron armor formation, and a chariot formation. They had sufficient food and grass, and countless siege equipment.

According to the scouting reports from sentry cavalry, Yuan Jun stretched for more than [-] miles on land and [-] miles by water, and their forward troops arrived at the front line of Guandu today.

Although these news sounds very unfavorable, Cao Cao has no panic in his heart.

He said slowly: "Everyone may have never seen so many soldiers and horses, nor such a large formation, but these are not the point."

"Yuan Shao said something right. This battle will determine the history of the next 500 years and who will own the dynasty. Now everyone can express their opinions. Is it a war? Is it peace?"

"If it's a war, is it an urgent war or a slow one? If it's a peace, is it a peace negotiation or a peace?"

A civil official stood up and said: "Prime Minister, Yuan Shao is powerful and his troops are strong. I suggest that you avoid the war and make peace, delay the time, and wait for the opportunity to change, so as to plan to strike later."

The rest of the civil servants followed closely and said, "I second my proposal!"

These words made the generals standing beside him full of anger, wishing they could draw out their swords and chop these cowards alive.

A voice shouted: "Chen, the main battle!"

Xun Yu stood up, cupped his hands and said, "The prime minister must fight, and it's a hard fight, and a quick fight."

"Why?"

"I don't know the art of war, but now I know Yuan Shao's mentality very well. He must go to Xuchang for this march. Even if the prime minister chooses to seek peace, he will not make peace."

"Besides, although Yuan Shao's army is mighty, it's all in vain. May I ask all the generals present, you are all veterans of many battles. Do you choose to avoid the battle just because the opponent is powerful? If it is true If that's the case, what's the difference between that and a villain trying to survive!"

Xun Yu's words ignited the passion of all the generals present, and they all shouted, "Fight! Fight! Fight to the death with Yuan Jun!"

Xu Chu made a decisive decision, stood up and said, "The last general wishes to be the vanguard."

Cao Hong boasted even more: "Prime Minister, the final general only needs [-] elite soldiers, and he will surely be able to defeat the enemy and decapitate Yuan Shao!"

Seeing the scene below, Cao Cao, who was sitting in the main seat, was filled with emotion. Unexpectedly, most of the civil servants were greedy for life and afraid of death. Please send troops to fight.

He squinted his eyes and rubbed his brows, so that everyone present could not see through his thoughts.
