Chapter 378
Chen Liu, the governing office of Yanzhou, after the development of Cao Cao in the past two years, Yanzhou has shown a rare scene of prosperity.This is mainly due to Cao Cao's imitation of Huo Yu's policy. The farming did bring good benefits to Cao Cao, but Cao Cao did not deprive the power of the big family like Huo Yu did.

The autumn harvest is just around the corner, and the common people are working in the fields in twos and threes. Everyone has a smug smile on their faces. Although it is not as rich as Huo Yu's, this year's harvest is enough for the family.

"Drive! Drive!" A group of fast horses galloped quickly on the field path, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell what happened.

"Alas, the autumn harvest is about to begin, and war is about to break out again! God, please open your eyes!" An old man stood in the field and shouted.

It was Cao Jun's scouts who passed by at high speed just now. Such a desperate and fast horse rush must be caused by the emergency of the military.

"Father Wang, are you going to fight again?" A middle-aged man hurriedly approached and asked.

"In the eight hundred miles of the army, hurry up, and the battle will definitely start again!"

"Damn it, let people live!" The middle-aged man cursed.

As for why Father Wang knew, it was only because he was disabled and retired from the army.In the battle with the Youzhou army back then, Father Wang lost his life. He thought that he could escape the war by returning to his hometown, but who knows that the situation in the world is like this today.

"Boy! This war won't be fought for a while, and we will leave for Youzhou after the autumn harvest. This place is unbearable!" Father Wang turned and shouted at his youngest son.

There are not a few people who have such thoughts. After being reminded by Father Wang, they all began to think about it.Although Yanzhou was considered to be injured under the rule of General Cao, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, but compared with Youzhou, it is a heaven and an earth.

"Report! Exploring horses to report urgently, Yuan Shao has assembled an army of [-], and the army is ready to go!" While Cao Cao was eating, a personal guard rushed in to report.

"Damn Yuan Benchu!" Cao Cao threw the chopsticks in his hand and cursed viciously after hearing the report from the guards.

"Is Yuan Benchu ​​really stupid or fake? Can you not see through such an obvious scheme?" Cao Cao ordered Xun Yu to come to discuss the matter as soon as possible while cursing.

With a good lunch just in front of him, Cao Cao could no longer arouse his appetite.After hesitating again and again, Cao Cao put down the bowl and chopsticks and turned to go to the study.

In less than half a stick of incense, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, Cao Hong, Xiahou Dun brothers and others came together, obviously they all got the news of Yuan Shao's army.

"See your lord!"

"Excuse me, it doesn't look like Ben is not full!" Cao Cao said casually.

Since the first battle in Chang'an, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's strength has been greatly reduced, but Yuan Shao took the opportunity to occupy Yuzhou, which is still much better than his own Yanzhou.

Regardless of the economy and population, it is more developed than Yanzhou.This time Yuan Shao's attack with an army of [-] has already reached the limit, and it is obvious that he will not stop until he achieves his goal.

Cao Cao, who had originally pinned his hopes on Lu Bu, was about to be disappointed now.The last time they united with Lu to fight against Yuan was due to the situation. Now that Lu Bu has grown in Nanyang, he is no longer worried about Yuan Shao's threat, and instead began to think about how to conquer Jingzhou.

In addition, the equipment of Cao Cao's soldiers is far from that of Yuan Jun.Whether it's weapons, battle armor, horses, military uniforms, etc., Cao Cao is jealous.

Fortunately, I have a tiger and leopard cavalry of 3000 people under my command. This is the elite that Cao Cao raised by saving money.When it comes to field battles, the tiger and leopard cavalry are definitely not afraid of Yuan Jun, but after all, Yuan Jun has 2 people, and he has only [-] people. The disparity in strength cannot be made up.

In order to capture the Chuanguo Yuxi, Yuan Shao can be said to have made sufficient preparations, and this battle may not stop until the goal is achieved.

"My lord, Yuan Shao came here to pass on the jade seal of the country. Why don't you hand over the jade seal to prevent the two families from fighting again and the people suffer from the flames of war again!" Xun Yu was the first to come out and remonstrate.

"This general never thought about it, but how could Yuan Shao let it go?" Cao Cao said without thinking.

Seeing Cao Cao's answer in this way, Xun Yu didn't say much. Now that the big man no longer exists, this passing on the jade seal of the country is both a blessing and a curse.

"Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover up! I'm afraid Yuan Shao will be a bird's egg!" Cao Hong rushed angrily.

"Stand if you want to fight!" Cao Cao stood up and said with eyes full of light.

For Xun Yu, the demise of the Liu family was something he never dared to think about. Although it was rumored that Cao Cao and Yuan Shao murdered the little emperor Liu Xie, Xun Yu knew that it was all Huo Yu's scheme. Therefore, although he was desperate, Xun Yu still chose to stay with Cao Cao.

"My lord, since you want to fight, then take the initiative to attack!" Xun Yu remonstrated again.

"Yuan Shao raised an army of [-], needless to say the consumption, the lord only needs to send tigers and leopards to disrupt the food road, and it will definitely be broken!"

"Well, Wen Ruo's idea is exactly what I want! Cao Hong listens to the order!"

"The end is here!"

"You led three thousand tiger and leopard cavalry to evade the main force of Yuan Shao's army and harass his grain road!"

"The last general takes orders!"

"The rest of the generals can prepare for battle!"

Blessings are unparalleled, and misfortunes never come singly. Here, Yuan Shao raised troops to attack Cao Cao, and Liu Biao ordered Cai Mao to come here because of some kind of wind.

Sun Ce, who had already occupied Yangzhou, seemed to know that Liu Biao would attack Yanzhou early in the morning, so he led an army of [-] to attack Jiangxia.However, Liu Biao seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and sent Liu Bei, who had recently lost his reputation, to fight Sun Ce.

But what I never expected was that when the war between the two sides was about to break out, Lu Bu, who was originally silent, suddenly raised his troops to Jingzhou.Due to the lack of troops, Xiangyang's defenses were relatively weak. Wherever Lv Bu went, he heard the news and surrendered. The situation was also very critical, so Liu Biao had to urgently dispatch Liu Bei and Cai Mao to help.

Stealing chickens is not enough to lose money, and Liu Biao reaped the consequences. Not only was Lu Bu's soldiers coming to the city, but Sun Ce took the opportunity to capture Jiang Xia.The armies of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have not yet been launched, and Jingzhou has already been fought into a pot of porridge.

"Xuande, Lu Bu is brave, what should I do?" Liu Biao asked, looking at Liu Bei who had returned from the dust and dust, pulling his hands.

"Brother, don't worry, Lu Bu has a lot of cavalry, and they are not good at attacking cities, so they just need to defend Xiangyang to the death!" Liu Bei replied confidently.

"That's right, what Brother Xuande said is very true, the city wall of Xiangyang is tall, as long as you defend it! Defense is all you need!" Liu Bei's words finally reassured Liu Biao.

In fact, there is no shortage of counselors under Liu Biao, but I don't know what kind of means Liu Bei used to make Liu Biao alienate the two brothers Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue.

In the Kuai Family Mansion in Xiangyang City, the two brothers Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue were discussing something in the study.Since Liu Bei came, Liu Biao suddenly began to alienate the two of them, coupled with Cai Mao fanning the flames, the Kuai family, which was originally in power, gradually began to leave the inner circle of Jingzhou.

"Brother, Lu Bu is coming to attack, shall we?"

"Nonsense, how Liu Jingsheng alienates the Kuai family is better than Lu Bu!"

"Yes, brother taught me the lesson!"

"Have you ever contacted Youzhou?"

"The person sent has sent a message back, but the Champion Hou didn't see it, but Youzhou agreed to our request!"

"That's good! Jingzhou can't lose at the moment!"
