Chapter 43: Cao Cao's army arrives, and Li Yu uses a trick to destroy Li Jue.

The vanguard army only has more than 6,000 troops.

The Xiliang army numbered more than 30,000 people.

The vanguard army does not have an advantage in strength.

When the Xiliang army attacked the camp, they were able to defeat the enemy. This was a great victory.

Dian Wei hurriedly said:

"Yesterday we called for formation all day long, but not a single soldier from the Xiliang army came out!"

"The military advisor predicted that they would come back to rob the camp at night!"

"We set up an ambush and waited for the Xiliang army to take the bait!

A smile appeared on Cao Cao's face:"Wu Feng, military advisor, knows things like a god!""

"My lord is serious! Li Yu clasped his hands in a gesture.

Cao Cao asked again:"How many troops does Guo Si have?" Li

Yu said:"There should be about 20,000 left. At this moment, people are in panic and unable to fight with our army!""

"good!"Cao Cao slapped his palm on the table and said loudly:"Xiahou Yuan is sent to see me!"

"Here!"Dian Wei clasped his fists and quickly exited the tent.

After a while, Xia Houyuan came to the Chinese army's tent.

"I’ve met my lord!"

Cao Cao said:"I will allocate you 30,000 troops and horses, and immediately lead Yu Jin and Li Dian to station in Xishan to cut off the enemy's retreat!"

"Here! Xia Houyuan clasped his hands in his fists and quickly exited the tent.

Afterwards, Cao Cao asked people to prepare wine and meat.

Cao Cao ordered Li Yu, Dian Wei and Xu Chu to accompany him.

"Beheading Li Jue was a great achievement, and it should have been a feast"

"But now that the remnants of the Xiliang Army are still there, it is not appropriate to make a big deal!"

"If you have a few drinks today, I, Cao Cao, will be celebrating your success!

The three of them picked up their wine bowls:"Thank you, Lord!""

"Hahaha!"

Cao Cao laughed and drank with the three of them.

Putting down the wine bowl, Cao Cao said:

"Trapping Guo Si is not the goal!"

"The purpose is to defeat the Xiliang army as soon as possible, and the sooner, the better!"

"Does Military Advisor Wu Feng have any good ideas?"

After Guo Si was trapped, there was basically no way to survive.

It could take as little as half a month, as long as a month, and he would inevitably be defeated and killed.

But Cao Cao did not have this patience. When the army came to Luoyang, the food and grass they needed had to be transferred from Yuzhou.

Secondly, Yang Feng and Han Xian were still watching in Daliang City.

Although Yuan Shao didn't know how to fight for the emperor at the moment in Yecheng, could he suddenly lead his troops to snatch the emperor.

For Cao Cao, the remaining Xiliang army should be eliminated as soon as possible.

Bring the emperor with him. The best strategy is to go to your own territory.

And the Xiliang army has to fight.

First, to win the hearts and minds of the people. The Xiliang army has been causing harm to the Central Plains for many years, and the people deeply hate it.

Second, to establish prestige within the court.

Moving the capital is never a trivial matter..

Cao Cao wanted to move the capital as soon as he arrived in Luoyang, and the ministers may not agree.

However, after Cao Cao destroyed Li Jue and Guo Si, the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty naturally had nothing to say.

This battle must not only be fought, but also fought quickly. , the fight was beautiful.

Li Yu raised his hand and said:"Master, in my opinion, you can treat the other person in his own way!"

"oh? Cao Cao was surprised, and then said:"The military advisor means to rob the camp?""

"That's right!"Li Yu nodded.

"Yesterday's battle, Evil Lai captured many Xiliang troops"

"Among them was Li Jue’s general Duan Xuan."

"Can this person be allowed to lead troops back to the Xiliang camp to help our army rob the camp?"

"With the internal and external cooperation, the Xiliang army will be defeated!

Cao Cao asked:"Can Duan Yan be trusted?""

"Unbelievable! Li Yu shook his head:"But in the face of life and death, I believe Duan Yan will make the right choice!""

"Hahaha!"Cao Cao burst into laughter.

The Xiliang army has been trapped.

At this time, the only option is to surrender to the imperial court.

If Duan Xuan is still determined to help Guo Si, he will undoubtedly be seeking death.

"good!"Cao Cao said:"You will be responsible for persuading Duan Xuan to surrender!"

"Thank you, Lord!"Li Yu clasped his hands in his fists.

After eating and drinking enough, Li Yu took Dian Wei to the prisoner camp.

Duan Yan was invited to the big tent.

He was treated to good wine and meat.

Duan Yan didn't drink wine or eat meat. Asked:"I am just a prisoner, why do the military advisors treat me so favorably?"

Li Yu smiled:"Because I have something to ask for!"

Duan Yan shook his head:"Now that I am a prisoner, what can I do for the military advisor?"

Dian Wei said loudly:"What nonsense, the military advisor said you can do it, you can do it!" Give me wine and meat!"

"yes!" Duan Xuan gestured with his fists, picked up the wine bowl and started drinking.

Speaking of which, this man was unlucky enough.

After Li Jue was killed, his subordinates fled in all directions. Everyone fled, but Duan Xuan and his subordinates were Dian Wei was trapped in the camp.

In order to survive, he had to surrender.

Then he became a prisoner.

Three jars of fine wine and five kilograms of mutton were eaten by Duan Xuan alone.

"What are the military advisor's orders?

Li Yu said:"Fake surrender!""

"Fake surrender? Duan Xuan was puzzled.

Li Yu said:

"The Lord wants to break through Xiliang urgently!"

"I offer my lord a suggestion to rob the Xiliang army camp at night!"

"We need someone to cooperate with us! Duan Xuan said:"

The military advisor means to let me go back to the Xiliang army camp and cooperate with you to rob the camp!""

"That's right! Li Yu nodded:"This important task belongs to you!"

Duan Xuan shook his head:"Aren't you afraid that I won't come back if I leave?""

"Hahaha!"Li Yu smiled

"Being able to choose to surrender before the battle shows that you are not a reckless man!"

"Even if you never come back, you even join forces with Guo Bang to harm me!"

"It doesn't matter, our army will still defeat the Xiliang army"

"When the time comes, I will definitely peel off your cramps and dig up your Duan family’s ancestral grave!"

"The only difference between us is time, but to you it is really worth your life!"

Duan Xuan's face turned green when he heard this.

This strategist not only fought fiercely, he was also very good at what he did.

He didn't leave any escape route at all.

But, having said that, Li Yu was not rough with his words.

"The military advisor said yes! Duan Xuan nodded:"I promise you, I will help the imperial court defeat Guo Si!""

"good! Li Yu said:"You will lead people to escape from the camp at three o'clock tonight. I will send people to chase you!""

"When will the incident occur? Duan Xuan asked again.

Li Yu said:

"Three days later, late at night!"

"As long as there is a fire in the Xiliang Army camp!"

"My army storms the camp! Duan

Yan stood up and bowed to Li Yu:"Duan Yan will definitely live up to the military advisor's trust!""

"Thanks for your hard work!"Li Yu patted Duan Yan on the shoulder, took Dian Wei and left.
