Three Kingdoms: Lu Bu’s brother-in-law, he cheated Cao Cao at the beginning

Chapter 154 The undercurrent in Xiangyang is surging, and the three armies respect

"This..." The corner of Xun Yu's mouth twitched, "But Cheng Yu said in the letter that it was the young man who escorted him to Shouchun!"

"What? Zhongde was escorted by a fool?" Cao Cao's mouth twitched, and he sneered several times, "Could it be that Zhongde became so stupid after he left me?"

"My lord..."

"Wen Ruo, pass on the order, whoever can provide information about Ren Yun will be rewarded with a thousand gold!" Cao Cao turned his back and looked up at the sky, "The night is freezing cold, alas, I should go back to my room to rest!"

"No!" Xun Yu cupped his fists and answered, knowing in his heart that Cao Cao already knew his mistake!

Although Cao Cao knows his mistakes and will correct them in the future, he will never admit his mistakes!
After returning to his room, Cao Cao did not rest on the spot. Instead, he sat in front of his desk, opened the classics and read them, trying to calm down his anxious heart by reading!

But this can only backfire!

Reading books is something that can only be done with a calm mind. If the mind is not calm, even simple books are like reading heavenly books!

"Lü Bu, Lu Bu!" Cao Cao grinned angrily, picked up the bamboo slip and hit his forehead, "I am so angry that if I don't get rid of Lu Bu, it will be difficult for me to achieve my great cause!"

"Xun Yu! Xun Yu!"

After shouting several times, Xun Yu strode in from the door!

"My lord?" Xun Yu frowned, but saw Cao Cao hitting his head with a bamboo slip, "My lord, have you suffered from a headache again?"

"Xun Yu, I'm so upset right now!" Cao Cao leaned his head on the table with a 'plop', "I hope you can find a way to get rid of Lu Bu!"

"Now?" Xun Yu's expression was tense, his eyes fixed on the person in front of him, "My lord, are you all right? Do you want to send the imperial physician?"

"Now!" Cao Cao's voice was hoarse, as if he was in unbearable pain, "As long as you can think of a way to get rid of Lu Bu, it will be better than any panacea!"

"But..." Xun Yu's mouth twitched, "I do have a plan!"

"Quickly tell me!" Cao Cao raised his head suddenly, his eyes were bloodshot, and his expression was like a ghost who had died tragically. He raised his hand and grabbed Xun Yu, "Quick, quick!"

"My lord, Lu Bu has made great achievements. Why not call Lu Bu to Xuchang in the name of the Son of Heaven! Give him an official title and make him a great general!"

"Huh?" Cao Cao's ferocious face gradually recovered, "A clever plan, if Lu Bu doesn't respond to the edict, it's treason! If he accepts the edict, then...haha..."

"Lord, Holy Ming!" Xun Yu cupped his fists and bowed deeply.

"Wen Ruo, you should handle this matter yourself!" Cao Cao got up slowly, "Write two edicts, one ordering Lv Bu to enter the palace to face the saint immediately, and the other enshrining Yuan Shao as the general of Zhenbei, and enshrining Qingzhou, Bingzhou, Youzhou, All Jizhou will be entrusted to him! Yuan Tan will be the governor of Jizhou, Yuan Xi will be the governor of Bingzhou, Yuan Shang will be the governor of Youzhou, and Gao Gan will be the governor of Qingzhou!"

"My lord is showing weakness to Yuan Shao, and you want to intensify the conflict between them?" Xun Yu showed a faint smile and gave a thumbs up, "My lord's plan is very clever!"

……

Outside Pingchun city!

Everything is ready, and all places are also fighting according to Xu's plan!
The fighting everywhere was also very fierce, and Wei Xu also successfully blocked Zaoyang's reinforcements!

Cai Mao has been cautious for many days, facing the provocation of the five thousand old and weak outside the city, he was puzzled, but Xu Shu planted flags in the distant mountains and forests, and his subordinates were suspicious of soldiers, so Cai Mao dared not go out of the city to fight!

Xinye City was also successfully captured, and the letters in the turbulent water also successfully entered Xiangyang!
Facing the words in the letter, the people of Xiangyang City were puzzled!
Outside the gate of Liu Biao's mansion, he was surrounded by the nobles. Liu Biao did not dare to go out. Madam Cai led all the family members to go out armed with full weapons and angrily scolded the nobles!
In order to obtain accurate information, all the gentry did not dare to openly resist the Cai family, so they had to give up!

But this also planted a hidden danger in the hearts of the gentry!

In Xiangyang City, the news of Cai Mao's death spread more and more widely, and the three became tigers. Many people believed that they were secretly plotting to overthrow the rule of the Cai clan!

After attacking Xinye, only 2000 people were left to defend, and the rest of the army returned to Yiyang City and stationed in the jungle of Yiyang City!
False and real, in order to confuse Cai Mao's judgment!

It was a falsehood before, so Cai Mao must send sentry cavalry to find out, but if Cai Mao attacks now, he will be surrounded and suppressed by the army!

Xu Shu personally reached the front line, and Pingchun City was only guarded by [-] old and weak troops!

Gao Shun, Wei Yue, Lei Bo, Qiao Rui, Chen Ji, Chen Lan and other generals all followed Xu Shu to the jungle outside Yiyang City!

According to Xu Shu's strategy, although Yiyang City does not need to be captured, it must be completely surrounded!
At least the news in the city cannot be allowed to leak out!

Otherwise, Xu Shu's rumors about Cai Mao's death would be self-defeating!
At that time, attacking Xiangyang will definitely become very difficult!
After the previous battle performances, the generals have already convinced Xu Shu and are willing to return to Xu Shu's command!

Even Wei Xu admired him very much. He publicly apologized to Xu Shu, pleaded guilty, and pleaded guilty to Gao Shun!

Neither Xu Shu nor Gao Shun made things difficult for Wei Xu, after all Wei Xu and Lu Bu are related!
As night fell, all the generals sat around in the central tent!
Because Xu Shu didn't intend to hide the camp in the forest, the camp is brightly lit at this moment!

Originally, it was taboo to light fires in the jungle. If a fire broke out, all the soldiers would be destroyed in the sea of ​​​​fire. However, Xu Shu chose an excellent location. There was a mountain lake next to the camp. Although the lake was not big, there was a steady flow of running water. It is not a problem to supply the soldiers of the three armies to drink!

"Generals, the previous battle is just the beginning!" Xu Shu looked around at everyone, their faces flushed by the lights, "The main course is next!"

"Commander, please give me your orders! Your previous plan impressed us greatly! No matter what plan you make, we will obey it!" Wei Yue stood up from the line, clasped his fists and handed over his hands, "Everyone, do you think so?"

"That's right, Commander, you are here to dispatch us under the orders of the Lord, and we will obey the orders of the Commander!" Wei Xu said quickly, "If anyone has the slightest complaint, don't blame the sword on my waist!"

"Yes, Commander, I am willing to obey orders!"

All the generals speak with one voice!

"Okay!" A satisfied smile appeared on Xu Shu's face, "Next, I hope to completely wipe out Cai Mao's army!"

"Completely annihilate?" Gao Shun frowned slightly and shook his head, "Captain, there are more than [-] defenders in Yiyang City. We have fewer troops than them, and Cai Mao often behaves like a shrinking turtle and does not leave the city at all! We are like With less troops, I’m afraid we won’t be able to capture Yiyang!”

"Then let's set a big fire!" Xu Shu's mouth curled up slightly, looking around at everyone.

"Set fire?" Gao Shun showed a bit of bitterness, "We can't enter Yiyang City, how can we set fire? The governor must not be joking! Behind the high wall of Yiyang City, even if we build catapults, there is no kerosene in the army! If fire attacks Yiyang, what will the people in the city do?"

"Yes, Dudu, if Yiyang is set on fire, how many people will die? Wouldn't this be too cruel?" Hou Cheng clasped his hands together, "Although Yiyang is in the hands of the enemy at the moment, the people are innocent! Please also Dudu Change it!"

"No, no, no! Who said it was burning Yiyang?" Xu Shu laughed a few times, and Lianlian shook his head, "I'm talking about burning here!"

"what?"

The generals looked at each other in shock.

"Fire...here?"
