The Three Kingdoms started from fooling Jia Xu

Chapter 312 Xu You panicked

Nanyang, outside Bowang City.

Bowang is about two hundred miles away from Yecheng, and it is also the backup station of Yecheng. Bowang is Wancheng when you come here, but Wancheng at this time is far from what it used to be.

After many wars, Wancheng has already been torn apart, and it is of no strategic use, unless it is useful to defend the south from the north, and defending the north from the south must be Yecheng.

In later generations, Liu Bei was based on Xinye.

There were less than [-] soldiers, but they took the initiative to attack Cao Cao, and once hit Yecheng. Above Yecheng was Xuchang, which is the hinterland of Cao Cao.

There are too few main soldiers, and Liu Biao has been persuaded to send troops many times, but the latter has turned a blind eye, but if Liu Biao is not so cowardly, Cao Cao is really difficult to fight.

However, Liu Bei retreated with hatred, and burned Bowangpo, which has become a good story through the ages.

However, Bowang at this time was unusually quiet, even the gates of the city were concealed and closed, and it seemed that there was no life at all.

But outside the city was Yuan Shao's army.

Looking at Bowang City in the distance, Yuan Shao frowned slightly, looked at Qianzhao and said, "Is there no one here?"

"Returning to my lord, just now the sentry came to report. Bowang City is also an empty city. There are no people in the city, let alone rations and livestock."

Qianzhao frowned and said.

This time, they mobilized their troops and wanted to capture Duyang, Bowang, and Zhixian in one fell swoop, and then Tumin vented their anger to boost the morale of the army.

But this powerful punch felt like hitting cotton, without any waves, and even felt very irritated.

"Hmph, it's an empty city again." Yuan Shao snorted coldly, and continued with a grim expression: "The Pheasant County in the west is probably also an empty city, right?"

"My lord, since these three places have become empty cities, Zhang Xiu must have made preparations in advance. If you want to come to Jingzhou, you should have sent people to guard Xinye."

"But now, Zhang Xiu didn't chase after him at all, which means that he has a way to defeat Jushou. Once Jushou is defeated, our army will be in danger."

Xu You hoarse, cupped his fists to persuade.

He was really worried that if Jushou was defeated, Yuan Shao's [-] army would become a lonely army that would go deep into the army, and he might not be able to leave even if he wanted to.

Once this is the case, I am afraid that his 20 troops in Jizhou will be here.

At that time, let alone the two dilapidated states and counties in the Central Plains, I am afraid that even Jizhou will be seriously injured. This is a sign of defeat.

"Hehe, Xu You, tell me what is your intention to ask the lord to withdraw his army over and over again? The lord has already arrived at Wancheng, and will take Xinye in a short while."

"But when you come to you, you are actually afraid of wolves and tigers. What's more, Jushou is proficient in battle formations, and there are still [-] troops in the front. How can you lose?"

"As long as we win Xinye, we will consolidate the city defense and send people to attack Zhang Xiu at the same time. This will be a winning move."

Guo Tu sneered and clasped his fists.

After finishing speaking, he rolled his eyes at Xu You, as if provocative.

"You, you stupid dog, you don't know anything about the art of war, yet you dare to talk about it." Xu You was so angry,

"My lord, don't listen to what this person says. At this moment, our army should retreat immediately, and Xuchang has been heightened many times by Cao Cao."

"It is absolutely possible to use Xuchang as a frontier city, and send generals to garrison it, and the Lord will lead the army to develop steadily for three to five years. Zhang Xiu is not a worry."

Xu You spoke loudly, and even planned a retreat.

It is indeed feasible to use Xuchang as the border. After all, Xuchang is regarded as the imperial capital, and Cao Cao has reinforced it many times.

"Okay, it's time to discuss whether it's war or withdrawal." Yuan Shao waved his hand, a little impatiently, the most annoying thing for him was the disagreement among his subordinates.

The key point is that there are so many factions under his rule, and there must be disagreements, so that he has been plagued by troubles since he came to power, so that he is unresolved.

"Wen Chou, pass on the order that the three armies will enter the city to garrison!" Yuan Shao looked at Wen Chou beside him and said.

"Promise!" Wen Chou clasped his fists in response.

"Leading Zhao, I want you to bring thousands of people along the Feishui River to gather boats, the more the better, and get ready to go south." Yuan Shao said again.

Therefore, whether you are going to Wancheng or Xinye, you can arrive there quickly along the Chu River.

"No, the last general will do it!" Qianzhao was quite burly, nodded solemnly at this time, and immediately led people back.

"Han Meng, it is estimated that Bowang City will be used in a short time. Take people to search for rocks and prepare to strengthen the city wall." Yuan Shao ordered.

"Fengji, the army's rations should not be available much. Hurry up and urge Jushou to send more people to transport rations, but be sure to guard against Zhang Xiu."

After giving several orders in a row, he felt a bit wise.

All the civil and military personnel also performed their duties and began to go down to get busy, and Yuan Jun also began to enter the city.

As for Yuan Shao, he cleaned up the general's mansion in the city and started to hold a debate meeting with a group of younger brothers there.

The debate was mainly between Xu You's retreating faction and others' offensive faction.

Except for Xu You, everyone else felt that the moment was just right, and they should take down Xinye in one go and Zhang Xiu backhandedly.

As a result, he will be in the mansion.

The faces of the crowd were red-faced, and Xu You used his own power to slander Feng Ji Guotu and others, which was called a slap in the face, and he was quite proud.

Because he believes that this time the troops must be withdrawn.

If you don't withdraw your troops, the danger is too great!
At the same time, Bowang outside the city.

"Get out of the way, everyone get out of the way, the military situation is urgent, get out of the way." Outside the city gate, a man and two riders came galloping.

Seeing this, the general guarding the city quickly raised his hand to let the soldiers behind him out of the way, because he saw the purple gold flag on his back.

This is only equipped for the highest military affairs.

The sentinel galloped all the way to the general's mansion.

After a while, the sentry rider got off his horse, and before he had time to rest for a while, he ran towards the general's mansion at a fast pace.

Before they arrived, he could only hear the constant debate inside, especially Xu You, who was a little arrogant because of Yuan Shao's relationship with him.

"Report~, my lord, Zhang Xiu is treacherous, and rushed to attack our army's Yingyin granary, and now the granary has been burned by Zhang Xiu." Said the sentry rider in pain.

"What did you say? The granary was burned?" Yuan Shao was stunned for a moment, staring at the sentry cavalry with his eyes wide open, but his eyes were trembling, and he even straightened up anxiously, and then sat down again.

As for the rest of the civil and military, they were also taken aback.

One by one looked at each other, showing a look of fear.

They all knew that the burning of the granary was a major event, which meant that they would be short of food in a short time, and it was too late to adjust the food at such a time.

"Hmph, everyone is short-sighted, and they dare not speak now? Didn't you just clamor that this is going to win Xinye?"

"Why, did you change your mind so quickly?" Seeing that this group of people were deflated, Xu You felt quite complacent. They were the ones who kept pushing them just now.

Are you still fighting with yourself?There is no food to count on.

First place, on the high platform.

"It's impossible, it's impossible. There are so many grain transportation nodes, how does Zhang Xiu know when our army will arrive in Yingyin?"

Yuan Shao was a little crazy, not many people knew about it.

Only some of the old people he trusted most knew, and even Gao Lan knew it was from Ju Shou, after all, he was going to rescue.

But now that this batch of military rations is being burned, it not only means that the rations are gone, but also what to do with his 20 troops.

"My lord, this is a letter written by Lord Jushou himself, and it needs to be signed by my lord." The sentinel entered and handed over the two letters.

"Urgent?" Yuan Shao frowned.

Xu You just won, and he was a little proud.

He stepped forward to take it, and then took it apart by himself.

Yuan Shao frowned a little because of his overreaching, but he didn't say much. After all, Xu You had worked hard with him since Nanyang.

A total of two letters, opened one.

With a smile on his face, Xu You said loudly: "My lord, Zhang Xiu is treacherous and bought Xu with money."

After reading this, Xu You's expression froze instantly, and he was dumbfounded, because it said that Zhang Xiu bought herself with money.

buy yourself?Why don't you know?
If it's true, forget it, but there is no shadow of Nima, but at the moment, in this kind of situation, the letter is still written by Ju Shou, he is simply more wronged than Dou E.

"My lord Xu, you are reading it. You, Xu You, are not the ones that Zhang Xiu bought?" Guo Tu sneered teasingly when he saw Xu You's expression froze.

Hearing this, Yuan Shao, who was originally angry, was furious instantly, and shouted: "Xu You, hand me the letter."

Hearing the unkind words, Xu You trembled.

"My lord, I have no grievances or enmity with that Jushou, but he spread rumors and slandered me in letters, saying that I was bought by Zhang Xiu, it's a big joke."

"Although I, Xu You, am not a high-minded person, I still know the difference between right and wrong. My lord treats me with such kindness as a mountain. How could I do such a thing that is inferior to a pig or a dog?"

Xu You's voice was sonorous and powerful, and he looked at Yuan Shao sincerely.

There is a saying that is good, spread rumors with one mouth, and refute them quickly.There's no way, it's too difficult to prove yourself when you don't do it.

It's like how a disabled person can prove that he is disabled.

"Hehe, it really is you, Xu You." Feng Ji also sneered: "My lord, no wonder Xu You is trying to persuade my lord to quit the army."

"It turns out that he had colluded with Zhang Xiu long ago in exchange for money. He also knew that the army rations would be burned and the whole army would be defeated. It's really a good idea."

Fengji said.

"My lord, as far as I know, Xu You's family is rich, and his son has been doing evil since he was a child. It's ridiculous for him to say that he is a high-spirited man."

Guo Tu also answered.

At this time, Yuan Shao had already squeezed the envelope and started to read, but his frown became tighter and tighter, because the content inside made him angry.

"boom!"

Yuan Shao slapped the letter on the table.

The loud noise also made everyone tremble and shut up.

"Xu You, Xu You, look at the good things you have done. I trust you so much, but you betray me like this. If I don't kill you today, I will not be relieved."

Yuan Shao was furious, he stood up and shouted at Xu You.

"My lord, you swear to the heavens that you have never done anything wrong to the lord. If you did, you will be struck by lightning."

Xu You was frightened, this was a blatant framing.

"Hmph, the evidence is solid, and you still want to argue?" Yuan Shao's voice trembled, and an expression of hatred for iron and steel emerged.

"My lord, I have been following you for nearly ten years. Don't you know who I am? Although I love money, I always get it in a proper way. I will never tell Zhang Xiu secretly."

Xu You pursed the corners of his mouth and forced an excuse.

"Hehe, you accepted bribes to tell Zhang Xiu the location of the granary. It was foolproof, but Gao Lan was ordered to go to the rescue, but he found out about it by accident."

"These, what else do you have to say?"

Yuan Shao grabbed Wen Chou's saber, pointed at Xu You, and said in a trembling voice.

"Heh, heh," Xu You said with a light smile instead of anger at the moment: "My lord, my lord, I think Xu You has been with you for nearly ten years, but after all, I was slandered by villains."

"I am unwilling, I am unwilling!"

After finishing speaking, he slowly closed his eyes, as if to say to Yuan Shao, if you kill him, so be it, he will never frown.

Seeing Xu You like this, Yuan Shao hesitated.

Isn't it really Xu You?
"My lord, Xu You is a vicious person. In order to protect himself, he can say all kinds of things, but once he is allowed to leave, he will definitely seek refuge with Zhang Xiu and gain glory and wealth."

Guo Tu sneered, he didn't want to miss this good opportunity to beat up the drowning ghost.

"That's right, if Xu You is not dead, he must seek refuge with Zhang Xiu. He is well aware of our army's strategic layout and the distribution of soldiers. Once he is let go, my lord will have trouble sleeping and eating."

Feng Ji also clasped his fists in a hurry, and said anxiously.

"Despicable, you two are despicable villains, and I don't bother to be with you." Xu You was a little annoyed, especially listening to these two people singing and drinking, it was annoying to death.

Whether he can live today depends entirely on the relationship between Yuan Shao and him, but these two people are like idiots, trying to stop them all the time, are they human?
Dogs force things!
"Hehe, we are naturally not worthy of being with you. I'm afraid Zhang Xiu gave you a lot of money this time? Tsk tsk, it's just a pity,"

"I guess you got it with your life, but you didn't spend it!" Guo Tu shrugged teasingly, sneering and joking.

"Stupid dogs, you stupid dogs, I, Xu You, are not afraid of the slanting shadow. If you haven't done it, you haven't done it. The lord makes his own decision."

Xu You looked at the two proudly, and turned to Yuan Shao.

At this moment, Yuan Shao's life and death are on Yuan Shao's mind, and he just wants to let Yuan Shao know that he has worked hard and made great achievements, so that he can save his life.

As for the future, who cheated him will naturally investigate one by one.

"Xu You, now that the evidence is convincing, I should kill you to vent my anger, but thinking of your hard work, I will temporarily leave your head here, and wait for our army to return to Ye before beheading you."

Yuan Shao didn't pay attention to the verbal dispute between them, but looked at Xu Youdao solemnly.

After all, Xu You has been with him for a long time, and if he really wants to kill him, he still feels somewhat guilty, so he can only be taken into custody first.

"Thank you, my lord, for not killing me." Xu You only felt that this short moment had experienced ups and downs in life, "Don't worry, my lord, I will investigate this matter."

But before Yuan Shao could answer,

"My lord, no way!"

"My lord, Xu You's collusion with the enemy and treason has also caused our three armies to run out of food. This is a capital crime and cannot be exempted!"

"My lord, if Xu You is exempted this time, will my lord still have peace and reputation in the future? At that time, there will be tens of thousands of Xu You under my lord's rule."

Immediately, Feng Ji and Guo Tu said at the top of their voices.

"Okay, shut up, I only have a conclusion on this matter." Yuan Shao waved his hand, then looked at Wen Chou and shouted:

"Wen Chou, now the three armies are about to be short of food, and you quickly regroup your troops, and in a few days, you will return to Yecheng and return to Yedu."

"Promise!" Wen Chou agreed.
