Chapter 220 Three Clans Send 50 Troops

Cao Cao is recruiting soldiers and preparing food and grass.

The two brothers Yuan Xi and Yuan Tan were not idle either, they went to the Xianbei and the Huns respectively according to the advice given to them by Tadun Shanyu.

They were also alien races in the grassland, and Taton knew the Xianbei and Huns very well.

Sure enough, as Taton expected, Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi told Xianbei and Wuhuan that his father Yuan Shao had left a batch of treasures in Youzhou.

As long as Youzhou is conquered, this treasure can be distributed to them.

When they heard that there was a treasure, the nobles of the Xianbei and the Huns stared wide-eyed, and each of them wished to send troops to Youzhou immediately.

In addition, the two brothers Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi also told the Xianbei and the Huns that as long as they captured Youzhou, they could also enjoy the same treatment as Wuhuan in Youzhou.

However, the Xianbei and Huns are obviously not as smart as Taton, and they don't care about these privileges.

In contrast, they still care more about the gold and silver treasures that can be obtained by conquering Youzhou.

The nobles of Xianbei and Xiongnu asked again and again to confirm the amount of treasure left by Yuan Shao.

Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi, in order to regain the territory of their old Yuan family, as long as they can persuade the Xiongnu and Xianbei to send troops, the two of them dare to brag about anything.

Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi told the nobles of the Xiongnu and Xianbei that his father Yuan Shao hid a thousand carriages of gold and silver treasures in Youzhou, and as long as Youzhou was conquered, all these things would be distributed to them.

Treasures of gold and silver for a thousand carriages!

After hearing this number, the nobles of the Xianbei and Huns couldn't hold back.

Let me tell you this, when the Xianbei and the Huns sacrificed their ancestors, they didn't dare to burn so much.

In the end, Xianbei and Xiongnu each sent 15 troops, and Wuhuan sent 20 troops, a total of 50 troops, known as a million to the outside world, and attacked Youzhou.

The Wuhuan, Xiongnu, and Xianbei tribes mobilized such a huge force, the scouts sent out by Cao Cao naturally got the news immediately.

Ji County, government office.

"Report" The scouts who came back from the grassland rushed into the government office, knelt down on one knee in front of Cao Cao, and reported: "My lord, Wuhuan, Xianbei, and Huns have united."

"A total of more than [-] troops were sent to capture Youzhou, a great Han Dynasty."

After getting the exact news, Cao Cao immediately sent people to beat drums and gather the generals.

At this time, Cao Cao's soldiers and horses were well trained, and the food and grass were ready for three months.

Now Cao Cao is ready for everything, just waiting to dispatch troops and generals.

Xun Yu, the chief steward of the Cao Group, exhausted all his skills this time, and only then prepared three months of food and grass for Cao Cao.

You must know that the food and grass for war are all raised by the gentry.

But now, these gentry don't want to fight, Cao Cao insists on fighting, they can't stop them.

These gentry disagreed with Cao Cao, and it was impossible for them to change Cao Cao's meaning.

Therefore, they are not very enthusiastic about raising food and grass.

Fortunately, Xun Yu still has some skills. He talked badly and clarified the reasons and harms. Only then did he persuade the gentry to give Cao Cao three months of food and grass.

Cao Cao has been fighting for many years, and the landlord's family's surplus food is not much, and these gentry families are about to be squeezed dry by Cao Cao.

For three months, it would be fine if the battle could be finished, but if it could not be finished in three months, after the food and grass were exhausted.

If food and grass are raised again, then people's livelihood will be affected.

Soon, the civil servants and generals under Cao Cao gathered together.

After everyone was seated, Cao Cao said to the civil servants under his command: "Everyone should know that Wuhuan united with Xianbei and Xiongnu, and the three tribes sent a total of 50 troops to attack."

"Our food and grass can only last for three months. If we can't finish this battle within three months, the people will be dragged down. I don't know how many people will starve to death next year."

"Everyone, let me know what you think, how to solve the Wuhuan, Xianbei, and Xiongnu tribes within three months."

As soon as Cao Cao finished speaking, Su Ming stood up and was the first to speak: "Prime Minister, if you want to settle the battle within three months, you can't just defend without attacking."

"There are only 40 people in Wuhuan, and 20 elite soldiers will be dispatched this time. All those left in his base camp are women and children, the old, the weak, the sick, and the disabled."

"I would like to ask the prime minister to give me [-] light cavalry. I will bypass White Wolf Mountain and attack Wuhuan Mountain by surprise."

"Once Wuhuan Mountain is broken, Wuhuan will definitely withdraw its troops to help. At that time, the Xianbei and Huns will definitely withdraw their troops because they are worried about the rear.

"The prime minister defends first and then attacks. Once the three clans withdraw their troops, the prime minister can lead the army to beat the dog in the water."

After Su Ming finished speaking, the corners of Cao Cao's eyes twitched involuntarily.

Cao Cao thought to himself, why does his son like military tactics so much?

The last time I led 800 people to burn Wuchao, after burning Wuchao, I dared to surprise Yecheng with 800 people.

Now, they actually want to take [-] cavalry to attack Wuhuan Mountain, the base camp of Wuhuan.

After hearing Su Ming's words, Jia Xu said from the side: "Young master is so ambitious!"

"This is to imitate the champion Hou Fenglangjuxu, and make an indelible contribution."

Back then, the champion Hou Huo Qubing defeated the Xiongnu all the way to the Qilian Mountains and captured the golden men used by the Xiongnu to sacrifice to heaven.

In the Western Han Dynasty, the Huns were the largest race on the grassland, and their power far surpassed that of Xianbei and Wuhuan.

It was the defeat by the champion Hou Huo Qubing that made Wuhuan the latecomer.

If Su Ming can really take down Wuhuan Mountain and break through Wuhuan Mountain, the Wuhuan stronghold, then his achievements should not be inferior to the champion Hou Huo Qubing.

It is true that the surprise attack on Wuhuan Mountain was successful.

However, if it can't be done, life will be lost.

If others ask for orders like this, Cao Cao doesn't mind letting him try.

After all, the [-] light cavalry on the front will not play a decisive role in the hundreds of thousands of troops.

However, Su Ming is Cao Cao's most valued son!

There is no father who doesn't worry about his son, Cao Cao really doesn't want Su Ming to go.

"Chongguang, Wuhuan has a total of 40 people, and they are all soldiers. Even if they send 20 troops, it is not difficult for the clan to gather 10 people?"

"Besides, this Wuhuan Mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack. You may not be able to break through with 3 people!" Cao Cao said worriedly.

Su Ming understood what Cao Cao meant, and knew that he was worried about himself and didn't want him to take risks.

However, Su Ming also knew that the only way to end this battle with a combined strength of over one million troops on both sides within three months was to take the risk of a surprise attack on Wuhuan Mountain.

Besides, Lou Ban killed himself, the Wuhuan Mission killed himself, and the matter was caused by himself.

If you don't take risks yourself, who will take risks?

"Prime Minister, I am willing to issue a military order!"

"Give me [-] light cavalry, and I will destroy Wuhuan Mountain. If you don't destroy Wuhuan Mountain, I will come to see you!" Su Ming knelt on one knee and solemnly begged.
