Glaring at Zhang He angrily, Yuan Shao raised his hand and pointed at the high wall, and asked him: "After spending so much money and food, you are asked to wait until you come to Guandu, just to build a high wall?" ”

"Yuan Gong Mingjian!" Yuan Shao asked about the high wall, and Zhang He hurriedly said: "Cao Cao sent troops here, and he didn't prepare for too long before, and the military food must be insufficient!" If our army builds a high wall to confront it, Cao's army will be short of food in a few days! ”

"I've heard that if you don't fight the siege, it will make the city short of food!" His brows were tightly furrowed, and Yuan Shao said with a very unconcealed tone in his tone: "But I have never heard of the confrontation between the two armies, and it can be defended until the enemy army is short of food!" ”

Clenching his fists and bowing, Zhang He did not dare to respond to Yuan Shao.

He knew Yuan Shao's temperament, if he didn't fight at this time, maybe he would just force him to lead the army to attack Cao Cao, but once he bluntly admonished him, he was afraid that it would provoke the anger of the lord and kill him on the spot, which was not impossible.

"Jun Yi may feel that there are few soldiers, so he didn't attack Cao Cao!" Zhang He didn't dare to respond, Yuan Shao continued: "Since a certain person is here, the army has arrived in Guandu, and you should send troops immediately, and you can't delay!" ”

"No!" Knowing that he couldn't tell Yuan Shao any reason, Zhang He didn't defend himself, so he answered, and then retreated to the side.

Zhang He received the order to send troops, and Yuan Shao's face looked a little better.

Nodding to Zhang He, he waved behind him and shouted, "Go!" ”

Hundreds of thousands of troops, with Yuan Shao's greeting, marched towards the high wall that Zhang He had erected earlier.

On the high wall of Cao Jun, Cao Cao looked at Yuan Shao's army in the distance, gasped, and said to Guo Jia beside him: "I know that Yuan Shao has many soldiers, but I don't know that there are so many!" ”

"300,000 people only!" Cao Cao's face showed a hint of jealousy, Guo Jia smiled slightly, and said to him unhurriedly: "Liu Bei rebelled, Yan Liang and Wen Chou were defeated, and Yuan Shao commanded soldiers and horses, but now although there are many people, the morale is very low!" Ming Gong only needs to win one more game, and Yuan Shao must not dare to attack Ming Gong lightly. ”

"It's easier said than done!" Seeing that the soldiers under Yuan Shao's command were overwhelming, straight into a dark cloud covering the ground, Cao Cao's earlier confidence was already half less, and he said to Guo Jia: "The number of Yuan's army is several times that of our army, and if you are not careful, I am afraid that our army will ...... in this battle."

"Zhang He came to Guandu earlier and built a high wall to confront our army, Yuan Shao must be dissatisfied! Tomorrow, Zhang He may lead the army to fight! Cao Cao's words were a little less confident, Guo Jia hurriedly interrupted him and said: "If Duke Ming captures Zhang He tomorrow and makes him available to Duke Ming, then Yuan Shao has a lot of soldiers and horses, how can he help Duke Ming?" ”

Seeing that Yuan Shao had many soldiers and horses, Cao Cao was already a little panicked in his heart, but after listening to Guo Jia's words, his feelings calmed down a little.

Nodding his head and looking at the direction of Yuan Shao's army, Cao Cao asked Guo Jia: "In the opinion of filial piety, what should I do to capture Zhang He?" ”

"Zhang He is a fierce general in Hebei, if you want to capture him, Ming Gong must send a fierce general!" Clenching his fists and bowing, Guo Jia said to Cao Cao: "Tomorrow Zhang He will attack Ming Gong, and the main force of our army should defend here and fight fiercely." Tonight, Duke Ming could order Xiahou Yuan to go quietly, ambush soldiers and horses on Zhang He's way back to the barracks, and intercept the way when Zhang He was unable to break through our army's defenses and intended to retreat. The ambush suddenly appeared, Zhang He must have panicked, chose another way, and then set up an ambush in the northwest corner, which should be captured in one fell swoop! ”

"The two armies are so close, how can they hide their eyes?" Turning his head to look at Guo Jia, Cao Cao asked with some hesitation.

"Set up an ambush for soldiers and horses, but they are all cavalry!" Maintaining the posture of clenching his fists and bowing, Guo Jia said to Cao Cao: "And there is no need for too many people, when Zhang He withdrew, our army suddenly killed, and the other army must be panicked, Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan, each leading two thousand cavalry is enough!" ”

Turning his head to look at Guo Jia, Cao Cao shouted to the soldiers on the side: "Go and invite Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan!" ”

The soldiers responded, and quickly ran down the wall, looking for Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan.

It was only a moment's work, and Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan, who had been summoned by Cao Cao, ran up to the wall and came to Cao Cao's approach.

"Cao Gong!" Standing side by side behind Cao Cao, the two of them clasped their fists and bowed, and saluted Cao Cao in unison.

Hearing what the two of them were saying, Cao Cao turned around and said to the two: "Yuan Rang, Miaocai, Yuan Shao's army is coming, and I am not as many as Yuan Shao, what do you two think should be done to break the enemy?" ”

Guo Jia was next to Cao Cao, but Cao Cao asked them about the strategy of breaking the enemy, Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan glanced at each other, Xiahoudun said to Cao Cao with a look of embarrassment: "The two of us are reckless men, and the military advisor is here. ”

As soon as Xiahoudun's words came out, Cao Cao and Guo Jia glanced at each other, and then the two of them raised their faces and laughed almost at the same time.

Seeing Cao Cao and Guo Jia laughing very happily, Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan were even more confused, and they couldn't understand what they were laughing at for a while.

"Although you two are military generals, this time you will break the enemy, but it will be on the two of you!" took two steps forward, stretched out his hands and patted Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan on the shoulders, Cao Cao said to them: "Yuan Shao's army has arrived in Guandu, and the other army is several times more than our army. As long as Zhang He was captured, and in the battle with Yuan Shao, our army won by six or seven points! ”

"Cao Gong stay less, the last general will go to capture him!" Cao Cao said that he wanted to capture Zhang He, and Xiahou Yuan hurriedly said to him: "If you can't capture Zhang He, the last general is willing to lead the army!" ”

"Zhang He is a fierce general in the army, and Miaocai is also on par with him!" Waving his hand, Cao Cao said to Xiahou Yuan: "If Miaocai can capture him, of course, it is good, if Miaocai does not capture him, could it be that he really wants to dispose of Miaocai with a military order?" ”

was stunned by Cao Cao's words, Xiahou Yuan hugged his fists, and didn't know how to respond.

Zhang He's ability also knows that if the two of them fight, without a three-five lily, they will definitely not be able to tell the winner.

And after three or five lilies, even if the winner is divided, it is difficult to say who will win and who will lose.

"Bonghyo!" Xiahou Yuan didn't say anything more, and Cao Cao said to Guo Jia on the side: "And inform them of the matter that the two of us have just discussed!" ”

"No!" With a fist in response, Guo Jia turned to face Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan, and told the two of them what he had just discussed with Cao Cao.

After listening to Guo Jia's story, Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan were suddenly full of joy, and hurriedly clasped their fists and said to Cao Cao: "If you follow the words of the military advisor, the two of us will definitely be able to capture that Zhang He!" ”

Nodding to the two, Cao Cao didn't say anything more, just waved his hand at them.

After receiving Cao Cao's military order, Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan did not delay, got off the high wall, and immediately gathered their own soldiers and horses, only to wait until night, and quietly set up an ambush outside the wall.

Guo Jia had already expected that Zhang He would lead the army to attack, and after leading the army to the high wall built by Zhang He, Yuan Shao ignored the soldiers and camped, and led a group of staff and generals to climb the high wall.

Standing on the wall, looking at the Cao army's defense line in the distance, Yuan Shao's mouth pulled up a smile, raised his hand to the Cao army's defense line, and said to the staff and generals behind him: "A certain and that Cao Mengde have also known each other for a long time, and the princes from all walks of life fought against Dong Zhuo back then, and they also sent troops together, which can be regarded as old friends." But look at that Cao Mengde, after so many years, he has not grown at all, and when the two armies meet, they actually build a high wall, only thinking about defense, but they don't dare to have the slightest idea of attacking! ”

Yuan Shao's words, with a strong sense of ridicule, listened to his words, and many staff members and generals laughed.

Zhang He, who followed Yuan Shao to the high wall, heard him say this, but he couldn't laugh anyway.

Zhang Heli built a high wall and confronted Cao Jun, if according to Yuan Shao, he did this, just like Cao Cao, he only thought about defense, and did not think about attack at all.

In his early years, he followed Yuan Shao, and at that time, Yuan Shao was also able to be polite and virtuous, and he was also very courteous to the staff and generals in front of the tent.

But with the expansion of Yuan Shao's power, the temperament of great joy was gradually exposed.

first imprisoned Tian Feng and Fu Zhu, and then forced Yan Liang to commit suicide, and guided Yan Liang and Wen Chou to go to Luoyang to defect to King Qin.

Now that it has arrived in Guandu, the two armies only need to confront each other for ten months, and Cao Cao will have to retreat due to lack of military rations, but Yuan Shao can't wait, and wants to attack Cao Cao when he is in his prime.

Looking at the high wall built by Cao's army in the distance, thinking that Yuan Shao wanted him to lead the army to forcibly attack Cao's army, Zhang He's heart was bottomless for a while.

Because Yuan Shao was standing in front of him, Zhang He didn't dare to have the slightest lack of confidence, looking at Cao Jun in the distance, he never said a word.

Zhang He didn't plan to speak, but it didn't mean that Yuan Shao didn't want him to speak.

Turning his head to look at Zhang He, Yuan Shao pulled a smile at the corner of his mouth, and asked him: "What do you think our army should do, can we break through the defense of Cao's army?" ”

"Return to Yuan Gong!" Yuan Shao had already made up his mind to attack the Cao army, and asked Zhang He this sentence, obviously just asking him to be vassal, and agreed to attack the Cao army, knowing in his heart, Zhang He hugged his fists and bowed to Yuan Shao and said: "The morale of the Cao army is flourishing, our army is new, and the last general thinks that it is better to let the soldiers rest for two days, and stay until they are tired and tired, and then it is not too late to fight a decisive battle with the Cao army!" ”

The original intention was to let Zhang He echo twice, but Zhang He didn't seem to understand his intentions at all and said such a thing, which made Yuan Shao very dissatisfied in his heart.

Turning his head to look at Zhang He from the corner of his eye, Yuan Shao asked coldly, "Could it be that you still think that it is not appropriate to attack Cao Jun?" ”

"The last general will not dare!" Seeing that Yuan Shao was really a little angry, Zhang He hurriedly hugged his fists and bowed in response.

"Early tomorrow morning, Jun Yi will lead the army and defeat the Cao army!" Raising his hand and pointing at Cao Jun in the distance, Yuan Shao gave the order in an unquestionable tone.
