[Comprehensive + Sword Three] I am your mother!

Did Pang Tong know Yuan Shao's deployment of soldiers and horses and where the food and grass were stored?

of course I know.

Before coming to Cao Cao's place, Pang Tong went to Yuan Shao's subordinates for a while. Needless to say, Pang Tong's talent is not good, but his appearance is really not good. After figuring out the situation, seeing that Cao Cao was coming, Pang Tong immediately succeeded in getting Yuan Shao to scold him by virtue of his appearance.

After that, it was easy. Pang Tong, who was scolded by the lord and was aggrieved, said that he wanted to go out to the camp to relax. Of course, no soldiers would stop him. Even if Pang Tong was a second-rate counselor, he was at least an official, and he was taller than these little pawns. Quite a lot.

Pang Tong didn't talk too much, he quickly told Cao Cao about Yuan Jun's deployment, and then said: "All Yuan Jun's food and grass are stored in the Wuchao camp, and Wuchao is sent to Yuan Shao's garrison camp every five days." Grain, but the army itself is weak. Yesterday, a batch of grain was sent to Yuan Shao's camp. If my lord sends a large army to capture Wuchao quickly with superior strength, then there will be at least three to four days to move Yuan Shao's grain in Wuchao They are all empty, and when Wuchao delivers grain and grass to Yuan Jun, my lord can also let someone pretend to be Wuchao Yuan Jun to escort the grain and grass, and directly attack Yuan Shao's camp, Yuan Shao must be unprepared."

That's right, who would guard against their own grain and grass escort officer.

Cao Cao was very excited when he heard the words. He was worried that the war with Yuan Shao would turn into a protracted war. Now it seems that the food and grass will be cut off first, and then the camp will be attacked. Play a half.

It's more than...

Pang Tong saw that Cao Cao praised him greatly and did not despise him at all because of his appearance. He was immediately moved, thinking that this is really a time to meet the Lord of the Ming Dynasty, but now is not the time to be moved. He straightened his expression, Pang Tong continued. : "My lord, this Yuan Shao's army is just my first gift."

"Oh? Does Shiyuan have other big gifts?"

"That's right," Pang Tong said with a slight smile, "I wonder what my lord thinks about Tian Fengju granting these two?"

Tian Feng Jushou is the second of Yuan Shao's four great advisors. Of course Cao Cao has heard of their names: "These two are great talents."

"Then what about Jizhou Youzhou?"

"The land of these two states, I miss it day and night."

"Okay!" Pang Tong said: "Then I will give these two big gifts to the Lord."

Pang Tong left the academy last year, and has been working under Yuan Shao's subordinates since then. With Pang Tong's ability, of course his purpose is not just Yuan Shao's military deployment and a small black nest in this war. He wants Yuan Shao's subordinates. all sites.

Pang Tong sent a detailed map of Jizhou and Youzhou. It should be said that this is a complete copy of the one in Yuan Shao's hand. After seeing it at Yuan Shao, Pang Tong wrote it down and drew it himself.

In addition, Pang Tong also said: "My lord, once Wuchao is occupied by us and Yuan Shao experiences a big defeat, the first thing he will do is to feed his soldiers. For this reason, he must transport food and grass from Jizhou." .”

With that said, Pang Tong pointed out a road on the map: "Yuan Shao must go here to transport grain and grass from Jizhou, but our purpose is not their grain and grass. After all, this is still the hinterland of Jizhou. What we need to do is to mobilize Yuan Shao through grain transportation." With the power on the border of Bingzhou, now Yuan Shao's general Yan Liangwen Chou is dead, and only one Gao Lan is left alone, so as long as he uses a little tricks, Yuan Shao, who has become a frightened bird, will definitely let his general Zhang He be responsible for escorting this batch of food, and as long as Zhang He Leaving, although Jushou is talented, he is not enough to convince the sergeants. As long as he is a little provocative, Yuan Jun on the border of Bingzhou has been suppressed for so long. Ding Yuan, now Ding Yuan Yizi is the general under the lord, if the lord's army arrives, the people of Bingzhou will cheer, and Yuan Shao will not be able to stand in Bingzhou."

And as long as they win Bingzhou, they can surprise Yuan Shao's rear, making Yuan Shao's most important Jizhou unstable, and then Yuan Shao will be in trouble.

After hearing this, Cao Cao was very emotional: "The ability of Shiyuan is incomparable even with an army of [-]. It is my blessing to have Shiyuan's help."

These words moved Pang Tong so much, he had just been scolded by Yuan Shao before he came here, although he was deliberately asking for trouble, but after all the suggestions he gave Yuan Shao were good, but the words were not very pleasant, but Yuan Shao just because of He scolded him for his bad words and his hideous appearance. Compared with Cao Cao's courtesy to him from the beginning, Pang Tong really wanted to cry.

Just because of his poor looks, even though he is talented, he has been ridiculed for so many years. Now Cao Cao said to him, it is my blessing that you can help me. How could Pang Tong not be moved?

Pang Tong's plan was embellished and supplemented by Cao Cao and a group of advisers under him. However, Pang Tong is relatively reliable, and there are not many adjustments in the plan, so it will be formally implemented soon. Cao Cao Immediately, Zhao Yun was sent to Wuchao with [-] soldiers and horses.

However, the plan has been finalized, and it is up to the generals to execute it. Guo Jia and his group of civil servants can sleep soundly tonight.

However, after leaving the door, Pang Tong came to look for Su Yunshuang.

Pang Tong was very grateful to Su Yunshuang: "Thank you for your words back then, madam. If it weren't for madam, I would have been ridiculed for many years but could not find my own master."

Su Yunshuang saw that Pang Tong didn't seem to have any inferiority complex about his appearance now, and he was even in the mood to use this as one of his weapons to plot against Yuan Shao, so he didn't care so much, so he was also happy for Pang Tong: "You are so good, After all, although I can't say that appearance is unimportant, it is not that important after all, you see you are getting better and better now, but I am still so stupid."

Pang Tong: "..."

Madam, your self-defeating style has not changed for many years_(:3ゝ∠)_

Speaking of which, Pang Tong had a really good impression of Cao Cao.

"I have met a lot of people over the years, but they all treat me with contempt and disdain because of my looks. Only Mr. Cao treats me equally, without any disgust or contempt."

Su Yunshuang nodded: "It should be said that the lord's tolerance is indeed quite high in this regard."

Cao Cao himself is not too handsome.

By the way...

"Old Dian! Old Dian! Come here!"

Su Yunshuang greeted Dian Wei who happened to be passing by on patrol with his guards, and when Dian Wei approached, Su Yunshuang said to Pang Tong: "Look at Lao Dian, my lord really likes him!"

Pang Tongtong saw that this was almost as ugly as him, and even Dian Wei, who had a fierce and somewhat scary face, silently twitched the corners of his mouth: "My lord is really... tolerance is great."

Dian Wei's appearance, he is ashamed to despise it in front of him, but Cao Cao really doesn't mind_(:3ゝ∠)_

Speaking of which, Cao Cao’s subordinates include heroic men like Zhao Yun and Lu Bu, and ugly men like Dian Wei. Pang Tong feels that Cao Cao’s heart is quite open when facing such a group of extreme-looking men all day long_(:3ゝ∠)_

It should be said that everything went according to the established plan. In order to deal with Yuan Shao this time, Cao Cao really brought together several of his advisers. This time there was an extra Pang Tong, who knew Yuan Shao's situation well, and plotted against Yuan Shao. It's really not that difficult.

That night, Zhao Yun led people to finish Wuchao. Afterwards, a group of them changed into Yuan Jun's attire, and the Yuan Jun flag on the city wall did not move, completely pretending that this was still Yuan Shao's territory.

As for private matters... the next morning, Cao Ren brought [-] soldiers over to transport food, and then moved Wuchao to a clean place within two days.

When it was time for Wuchao to deliver food and grass to Yuan Shao's camp, Zhao Yun was still leading the team. On the surface, it looked like a food transport team of a few hundred people, but secretly, Cao Jun's soldiers were all in black and black, and they were in Yuan Shao's camp in the middle of the night. Tens of thousands of people were ambushed around, and there were thousands of cavalry led by Lu Bu.

They only waited for Zhao Yun to swindle open the gate of Yuan Shao's camp, and then the cavalry rushed in in one go, occupying the camp gate completely, buying time for the infantry behind.

After all, although Yuan Shao is not very reliable, but being able to establish such a large family business proves that he is not a fool. If he gets too close, he will definitely be discovered.

To be on the safe side, Cao Cao's ambush was some distance away from Yuan Shao's camp.

But this is not a problem, Zhao Yun brought a few hundred people enough to support Lv Bu, and when Lv Bu got on the horse, it was really a humanoid nuclear weapon. If he occupied Yuan Shao's camp gate, it would be difficult for Yuan Shao to take it back.

After that, the pawns could climb to Yuan Shao's gate even if they climbed.

This night was destined to be a restless one. Cao Cao attacked Yuan Shao's camp after evacuating Wuchao. Afterwards, even the supplies and food in Yuan Shao's camp were burned down.

After Yuan Shao's defeat, his soldiers scattered, and the last army of 40 to [-] was less than half left after this battle.

But even if only this half is left, Yuan Shao still has confidence. He is approaching Jizhou all the way. At this time, he even wrote to Jizhou to transfer food and reinforcements. As long as the people and things in Jizhou arrive, he will be able to fight Cao Cao fought again.

But at this time, Yuan Shao heard that Cao Cao was colluding with the bandits in Jizhou to rob him of the grain and grass he had just collected from Jizhou. They even figured out the route for the grain and grass to go. Yuan Shao couldn't bear it anymore. , He immediately asked the general Zhang Yun to be transferred back, and asked Zhang Yun to personally escort the batch of grain and grass to see him.

Yuan Shao had four generals under his command. Zhang He had a high view of Yan Liang and Wen Chou. Among them, Zhang He was the most capable. Now Yuan Shao can only place his hopes on Zhang He.

Sure enough, Zhang He lived up to Yuan Shao's expectations, and delivered the grain and grass to Yuan Shao, but Yuan Shao was too late to be happy, and there was a news from Bingzhou that came with the grain and grass. The little half he got was Bingzhou, but he lost it.

As soon as Zhang Xi left, although Ju Shou was quite resourceful and insightful, he couldn't suppress the group of soldiers under him. In addition, the people in Bingzhou were tough, and the people remembered Ding Yuan's goodness. They heard that Ding Yuan's adopted son Lu Bu Now he is Cao Cao's general, and Cao Cao is fighting Yuan Shao. At this time, Zhang Xi is not there, so one night, the local people in Bingzhou assembled a group of young men with strong Kong Wu, and killed Yuan Jun's soldiers guarding the city gate in the middle of the night. Dedicated the city to Cao Jun.

In terms of bravery, Xia Houyuan and Xia Houdun may not be able to compare with Lu Bu, but it is too normal to compare with Lu Bu. How many people in the world can compare with Lu Bu?In fact, Xiahouyuan and Xiahoudun are both fierce generals, and with the addition of someone offering their city, it can be said that they won the battle without any effort at all.

Afterwards, Jushou led people all the way back to retreat, but someone probably made a start. People from all over Bingzhou occupied by Yuan Shao gathered to rebel and offered their city to Cao Jun. Even as long as there were people in Bingzhou, everything Yuan Jun did to Cao Jun It was all transparent, and the people reported all their situations to Cao Jun, only hoping that Cao Cao could take back the small half of Bingzhou occupied by Yuan Shao as soon as possible.

Therefore, when Zhang Yun escorted the grain and grass to Yuan Shao, Ju Shou had actually led his people back to Yuan Shao's hinterland, and the entire territory of Bingzhou fell into Cao Cao's hands.

Needless to say after that, Yuan Shao was defeated by Cao Cao and could only retreat to Youzhou. So far, Cao Cao has become the veritable controller of the Northland.

And not long after Yuan Shao returned to Youzhou, news came that Yuan Shao was seriously ill and might not last long.

At this time, Cao Cao was busy taking over Jizhou. Although Yuan Shao was not considered a wise lord by many people, he was still very good to the people under his rule. Therefore, the people of Jizhou supported Yuan Shao very much, which forced Cao Cao to slow down. Do not attack Youzhou for the time being.

The lessons learned by Yuan Shao's occupation of Bingzhou are in front of him, and Cao Cao does not intend to make Yuan Shao's mistake again.

If the people in Jizhou were in chaos when he went to attack Youzhou, then he would be the same as Yuan Shao.

But even if Cao Cao didn't fight, Yuan Shao couldn't hold on anymore. Half a year later, Yuan Shao died of illness in Youzhou.

When Cao Cao took down Jizhou, he also got two people by the way. It was Tian Feng Jushou mentioned by Pang Tong before. Both of them were imprisoned by Yuan Shao ==

It's just that Tian Feng was too upright, and Yuan Shao's dissuasion when he was about to fight Cao Cao sounded like a deliberate curse to Yuan Shao, so Yuan Shao was put in prison, and Ju Shou was because he lost Bingzhou.

But even though these two were captured by Cao Cao, they were determined not to surrender to Cao Cao. They even bluntly said that as long as Yuan Shao is alive, they are Yuan Shao's people and will never surrender to Cao Cao.

But after Yuan Shao died of illness, Cao Cao persuaded them again, but the two said that even though Yuan Shao had a son, they would never help Cao Cao attack the son of the old lord.

Although these two people had many conditions, Cao Cao felt that they were all loyal people. Not only did he not resent him when he was imprisoned by Yuan Shao, but he still insisted that Yuan Shao was their master after being captured.

Therefore, Cao Cao was not embarrassed, but asked them to do some civil affairs.

Cao Cao governed Jizhou, naturally according to the original rules, there are people in Yanzhou, and there are people in Jizhou, but the situation in the two places is different after all, so Cao Cao often asked Tian Feng and Jushou about the affairs of Jizhou. Do your best.

After all, Cao Cao has nothing to say sorry to them. He even understood them all the time and promised them not to ask them to attack Yuan Shao and Yuan Shao's heirs. the people.

Of course, you can also say that Cao Cao is just trying to deceive the people, but the benefits the people get are real, so it doesn't matter what Cao Cao's purpose is.

Regarding Youzhou, Cao Cao did not go to fight until the second year. Once Yuan Shao died, several of his advisers began to fight for power. attack each other.

So Cao Cao didn't care about this group of people anymore, he just sent Zhang He and Gao Lan to guard the border. As for the candidates for the military adviser, Cao Cao originally wanted Cheng Yu to go, but Cheng Yu was old after all, and he was about the same age as Cheng Yu at this time The elder Jia Xu stepped forward. He said that he was an official on the border in his early years. The environment on the border of Jizhou and Youzhou was much better than that of Liangzhou back then, so he was more suitable than Cheng Yu in terms of adaptation to the environment and other aspects. Cao Cao can send him there if necessary.

After Cao Cao conquered Jizhou and Bingzhou, it was another round of cultivation.

Although generally speaking, the loss caused by this war to Cao Cao is not too great, but Bingzhou is fine. What Cao Cao is really worried about is Jizhou. Anyway, Jizhou was originally Yuan Shao's territory. At this time, it is still necessary to stabilize the rule of Jizhou very necessary.

And speaking of Cao Cao's next target is Xiliang Ma Teng instead of Youzhou as everyone guessed.

That's right, as far as Yuan Shao's sons are concerned, they can beat themselves to death by fighting each other. As long as Cao Cao doesn't put pressure on them, it is impossible for them to unite. Therefore, it is better to let them fight by themselves. After the fight, Cao Cao will go straight to clean up Endgame is fine.

Cao Cao wants to beat Ma Teng, and everyone has no opinion, after all, this is a normal process.

Yuan Shao's sons are nothing to fear, and the only one left in the North that can pose a threat to Cao Cao is Xiliang Ma Teng. As long as the land of Liangzhou is in his hands, Cao Cao will no longer be a threat in the North , you can attack the south with peace of mind.

And there is only one opinion on this...

Fight again after the autumn harvest!

Yes, there is no doubt about whether to fight or not. The only thing to consider is when to fight.

Cao Cao is still very patient in this regard. He firmly believes that the group of counselors under him will not talk nonsense, and if they say autumn harvest, they will harvest it in autumn.

This year in Jizhou was considered a bumper harvest year. After the autumn harvest, the people found that what Cao Cao said was true. He really treated the people of Jizhou and Yanzhou equally, and they also enjoyed the low tax policy. Soon they will have their own With the presence of the famous Jizhou Academy and Jizhou Martial Arts Academy, and the presence of two people who are familiar with Jizhou, Tian Feng Jushou, it took Cao Cao more than a year to finally accept the hearts of the people in Jizhou.

After all, Yuan Shao's biggest problem before was that the folk customs of Bingzhou were too tough. In addition, Ding Yuan was not dead, and his adopted son Lu Bu was very famous in Bingzhou for his bravery. It is difficult to treat the people of Bingzhou equally.

Cao Cao has learned this lesson, he is really kind to the people of Jizhou, and Yuan Shao's sons have not achieved much, even if Tao Qian's son has a good reputation of being kind, benevolent and caring for the people, Yuan Shao Those sons didn't have a good reputation in Jizhou, so once Yuan Shao died, Cao Cao worked harder, and the hearts of Jizhou would come back.

After stabilizing Jizhou, Cao Cao reorganized his troops and prepared to attack Xiliang.

This time Cao Cao doesn’t need to conscript himself. Now that Cao Cao has ruled the six states, it can be said that he has more than half of the country in his hands. Naturally, a Xiliang Ma Teng is not worthy of Cao Cao’s personal conquest, but Cao Cao is not reconciled. He feels that he is at home all day Watching is too boring, so I want to go.

If there is anything the Lord can do, just go.

But before leaving, Cao Cao stared at Su Yunshuang for a while, and finally sighed: "Madam, it would be great if you could go to Xiliang and pick up all Ma Teng and Han Sui."

Su Yunshuang: "...Do you want me to help you retrieve all Sun Ce and Liu Biao?"

Cao Cao: "..."

Even though we all know it's impossible, aren't people allowed to think about it? !

Okay, just think about it, as long as you are the master and you are happy.

But when Cao Cao went to the battlefield, everyone regretted it.

It should be said that with the current strength of Cao Cao, there is no suspense in beating Ma Teng and Han Sui. The difference is only how to win and how long it takes to win, so everyone is more relaxed.

Cao Cao is even more relaxed. He has strong generals like clouds and counselors like rain under him. He has nothing to worry about, and he is afraid that he will be tricked by Ma Teng.

But obviously, even if Cao Cao's army overwhelmed Ma Teng, he would not be able to catch him without a fight, and he was still ready to fight a good battle.

How should I put it, even if you want to lose, you must first prove your strength before losing, so that you will have the capital to speak in the future, otherwise, if you directly surrender to Cao Cao, your status in the future may not be too high.

Since it was to show his strength, Ma Teng simply let his son Ma Chao play. Ma Chao, who is extraordinary in appearance and brave, is simply another copy of little Lu Bu.

Ma Teng is still very optimistic about Ma Chao's bravery, and is confident that with Ma Chao's martial arts, as long as Cao Cao's subordinates are not Lu Bu himself, Ma Chao will definitely not lose to anyone. Even if it is Lu Bu, Ma Chao will definitely have the strength to fight.

Probably because he understood what Ma Teng was thinking, Cao Cao really sent Lu Bu to play.

Lu Bu and Ma Chao are both handsome and powerful people, and now they are standing together, and the momentum between them is not giving in to each other, the picture is really very beautiful.

Cao Cao even turned his head and said to Guo Jia who was beside him: "This Ma Chao is really extraordinary, standing with Feng Xian is really a good match."

Good match...

The corner of Guo Jia's mouth twitched, but he still couldn't respond to these words in the end.

By the way, Boss Cao, isn't your literary quality quite high?How can I be so forceful when I write poems, but so unreliable when I usually speak!

As soon as Cao Cao finished speaking, Lu Bu said, "If you don't return the horse quickly, you are no match for me."

How could Ma Chao just admit defeat like this? He really saw that Lu Bu was extraordinary, but Ma Chao had few opponents in Xiliang, so he was naturally an arrogant person. For Lu Bu's provocation, Ma Chao immediately jumped on the horse and stabbed Lu Bu in the face.

Ma Chao was indeed brave, but that was because no one he met was named Lu Bu.

Not to mention that the current Ma Chao is still too young to face Lu Bu. Lu Bu prodded Ma Chao while fighting back: "Ma, have you not eaten yet? Why are you so weak?"

"Ma'er, Ma'er, your reaction is too slow, watch your move!"

Because Cao Cao also said before that he was not allowed to kill Ma Chao, after all, if Ma Chao died, then Ma Teng and them would become mortal enemies. When Ma Teng fought to the death, even if they won, the loss would not be worthwhile, so at this time Lu Bu Just teasing Ma Chao one bite at a time.

The corners of Su Yunshuang's mouth twitched while watching this scene: "I think there is a song that is especially suitable for this kind of time."

These words attracted both Cao Cao and Guo Jia to look over, "What song?"

"The man who sets the horse, you are mighty and majestic..."

Guo Jia: "..."

Cao Cao: "..."

Can it be better!
