According to the course of history, Cao Cao had to first obtain the first victory before Yuan Shao could gather the rations in Wuchao. Then, he would burn the rations and cause Yuan Shao's army to lose without fighting.
But now, Yuan Shao was obviously not playing by the rules.
Unexpectedly, Zang Ba, this unknown general, showed off a shocking strategy. After hiding for more than ten days, he burned two million stone grains.
A living transmigrator logging in was god-like!
Wouldn't this increase the difficulty of the dungeon?
At this moment, Xu You probably wouldn't surrender.
"Now that Yuan Shao has run out of rations, it's not too bad for us.”
Xun Yu was the first to speak and analyze the current situation."Even if Yuan Shao were to gather military rations from the four regions, it would still take a certain amount of time. Including the transportation distance, it would take at least half a month.”
"Yuan Shao's current military rations definitely won't last for half a month. I'm afraid that he will launch a large-scale attack soon.”
After Xun Yu finished speaking, all the strategists nodded in agreement.
This was something that could be foreseen.
Food was the foundation of the army. Without food, it was impossible to maintain the normal operation of the army.
Yuan Shao only had two choices, either to retreat or to fight.
Everyone present knew that it was absolutely impossible for Yuan Shao to retreat.
"In that case, what follows is a fierce battle.”
Jia Xu took a deep breath and said,"As the saying goes, if you work hard, you will fail again and again!" If our army can withstand the first few rounds of Yuan Shao's attacks, we can basically secure victory.”
"This is the worst outcome."
Guo Jia shook his head and looked at Guo Yun." Mystic Immortal?!"
"Mystic Immortal? What are you thinking about?"
Cao Cao also noticed that Guo Yun seemed to be a little distracted. He looked at him with a burning gaze and asked,"Is there any other way to break this situation?”
Guo Yun heaved a sigh of relief and did not immediately answer Cao Cao's question.
He was recalling the details of the Battle of Guandu.
Using Xizhao to obtain the first victory was the beginning of Cao Cao's battle at Guandu, but the real decisive victory was the turning point of burning the granary of Wuchao.
Now, Zang Ba had completed this turning point first.
It was indeed not a bad thing.
Even if Cao Cao retreated now, Yuan Shao would find it difficult to attack Yanzhou.
After all, it took time to gather food.
It was midsummer now, and there was still some time before the autumn harvest.
Suddenly.
"I got it!" Guo Yun's eyes lit up.
During the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao had lured and killed six thousand Yuan soldiers.
Hearing Guo Yun's voice, Cao Cao was excited. The other strategists also listened attentively.
"My lord, we can just send the supplies to Yuan Shao.”
Guo Jia,"Convex!"
Xun Yu was speechless.
Jia Xu was speechless.
"(@@)~"
Yang Xiu was speechless.
Only Cao Cao was slightly calm. He slowly asked,"Xuan immortal means to fake surrender with food?”
"But even so, Yuan Shao will have to first receive the rations before he can be trusted. Once we lose the rations, Yuan Shao will go back on his words and not talk to me in detail.”
Even Cao Cao knew this very well.
Moreover, the possibility of Yuan Shao going back on his words was extremely high.
I won't talk to you after receiving the rations. What should I do?!
"My lord, why should we talk about it?"
Guo Yun smiled and said confidently,"Previously, we still needed the lord to stall for time. Now that General Zang Ba has set fire to Wuchao, it undoubtedly gives us a reasonable reason!”
"Set off at Si o'clock and transport the rations here.”
Guo Yun took the map and pointed at the originally planned location."It takes time to transport grain. In six to four hours, won't it be exactly five o'clock?”
"Think about it, Yuan Shao is currently running out of rations. With such a large amount of rations suddenly appearing, can he resist the temptation?”
Guo Yun glanced at everyone's faces playfully, and Xun Yu and the others fell into deep thought.
Guo Jia reacted the fastest and blurted out,
"Yuan Shao is unable to change the fact that our rations are cut off. If he wants the morale of the army to remain calm, he will definitely covet our rations…"
"And Yuan Shao predicted that we would have other intentions. Even if it was to receive food, he would gather an army to go with us.”
"If that's the case, even if our army has an ambush, the worst outcome for Yuan Shao is a direct decisive battle!”
“……”
Whoosh!
After listening to Guo Jia's analysis, Jia Xu took the lead and took a deep breath.
It was simply flawless!
This completely captured Yuan Shao's intention to start a decisive battle, unless he was 100% sure that he could take Cao Cao down in one bite.
Otherwise, 300,000 dans of grain would definitely become an irresistible temptation for Yuan Shao.
Taking ten thousand steps back.
Even if the plan failed, there would not be a worse outcome for Cao Cao.
An invitation to reminisce might arouse the suspicion of Yuan Shao's strategists, but if they were transporting food, this time was necessary.
Xun Yu slowly looked at Guo Yun, who looked calm.
A fear that came from the bottom of his heart lingered around his soul.
Xun Yu was in charge of the Department of Agriculture. No one knew better than him how long it would take to transport 300,000 dan of grain to the east of Guandu.
It was precisely at this time that Guo Yun had calculated his strategy and easily reversed the situation.
How terrifying was this?
It was as if Guo Yun had become as deep as the sea in an instant.
The others were still analyzing it in detail, but as they analyzed it, their pupils dilated.
Even with their intelligence, they couldn't find a single flaw.
"Even if I was in Yuan Shao's position, I would still fall for it!”
Cao Cao took a deep breath and said,""Mystic Immortal, this is no longer a conspiracy, but an open conspiracy!”
At this moment, everyone looked at Guo Yun with respect.
Just as Cao Cao said, this was a blatant plot. Unless you can eat us whole, we will fight for our rations.
However, Cao Cao had a total of 120,000 troops. Even 120,000 cabbages were not so easy to pick.
Moreover, there were still twenty thousand elite Tiger Leopard Battalion and Tiger Troop.
"In that case? Wouldn't Zang Ba not only be free of fault, but also have credit?”
Xu Chu, who was dumbfounded, finally reacted and sighed."Unfortunately, I died in vain."
"(o?)"
Guo Yun was speechless.
Guo Jia was speechless.
Xun Yu was speechless.|||”
"He will not die in vain. If someone takes General Zang Ba's head and gives it to Yuan Shao, pushing the responsibility of burning down Wuchao to General Zang Ba, won't this show the lord's determination to give the army rations?”
Yang Xiu, who had been silent all this while, finally found a chance to show off.
"This proposal is indeed feasible."
Jia Xu thought for a moment and said,"My lord, although I'm a little disrespectful to General Zang Ba, I believe General Zang Ba won't mind for the sake of unifying the northern kingdom."”
"Yes, after returning to Xuchang, I will reward Zang Ba's family.”
Cao Cao nodded and asked,""Who is more suitable to be this lobbyist?”
It was no joke to go deep into the enemy camp.
Once the war broke out, Yuan Shao would use it as a sacrifice.
At this moment, Guo Yun took a step forward, scaring Guo Jia so much that he hurriedly said,""My lord, I think we should forget about it."
"It's already an open scheme. No matter what, Yuan Shao will fall for it, so why bother?!”
The Volcanic Mad Demon instantly went online.
"Military Advisor Guo, why is this unnecessary? They only needed to send a scout.”
Yang Xiu did not agree.
It was not easy for him to be in the limelight once. If he was about to be adopted, wouldn't he also have a part to play in defeating Yuan Shao?
"Mystic Immortal, what do you think?"
Cao Cao didn't agree or refuse. Instead, he turned to Guo Yun and said seriously,""You absolutely cannot go there.”
Guo Yun was touched when she heard this.
"My lord and brother have misunderstood me. I just wanted to say that it's time to get off work."”
Cao Cao was speechless.
Guo Jia was speechless.
