The Battle of Guandu was the first of the three major battles of the Three Kingdoms. After this battle, there was no force in the north that could compete with Cao Cao.

Can.

Cao Cao still faces a huge problem!

As the saying goes, it is difficult for a rich man to be a man without money.

In ancient times, it was easy to be a killing god, but it was even more difficult not to be a cruel monarch, and the most important thing was food.

There is no food, hundreds of thousands of people have surrendered, and hundreds of thousands of people have opened their mouths. Is there any other option other than "going to the pit"?

Everyone knows how to kill them or not, but if they don't kill them, they won't be able to raise them... We can't wait for them to mutiny!

call…

Lu Yu exhaled.

At this moment, Dian Wei walked in.

"Master Lu, the war is over. All the remnants of Yuan's army have either been killed or surrendered. Today's battlefield has entered the final stage."

Hearing this, Lu Yu nodded.

Although the great victory in the Battle of Guandu contained some coincidences, Lu Yu was not surprised at all. Yuan Shao had two weaknesses that were fatal!

One of them is stubborn!

At first he didn't listen to Tian Feng's advice, and then he didn't listen to Ju Shou's plan.

To take a step back, if he had listened to Tian Feng's advice, kept a low profile and waited for the opportunity.

Then the Battle of Guandu will not start so soon!

If you had listened to Ju Shou's words, then at least Yan Liang and Wen Chou would not have been defeated so quickly, nor would they have been defeated in the first battle and lost the opportunity!

You must know that Yan Liang and Wen Chou are more powerful than Zhang He and Gao Lan. The most important thing is loyalty, which gives Yuan Shao unconditional trust.

The second is that Yuan Shao cannot manage his subordinates. It is no exaggeration to say that all of Yuan Shao's subordinates are talented people, including Guo Tu, Feng Ji, Tian Feng, Shen Pei, Xu You, Guo Tu, Ju Suo...

But Fengji and Tian Feng have a bad relationship;

The relationship between Shen Pei and Xu You is bad;

Not to mention Jushou, Tian Feng and the group of Jizhou celebrities are in the same situation as the Ruyingmen clan headed by Guo Tu...

Each of these people are talented individually, but when placed in Yuan Shao's camp, everyone is for himself.

On the surface, they all serve Yuan Shao, but in reality, almost all of them are Cao Cao's undercover agents. They didn't do much for Yuan Shao, but they contributed many good opportunities to Cao Cao!

There are too many cliques in a Yuan camp, like six people in a girls' dormitory forming seven groups. On the surface, they have a deep sisterly love, but secretly they are infighting. Can the relationship be good?

on the contrary…

Every weakness of Yuan Shao is a strength of Cao Cao, and every strength of Cao Cao can kill Yuan Shao.

With or without Lu Yu, the outcome is doomed.

only…

Lu Yu's appearance avoided many unnecessary pitfalls and saved more manpower and ordnance supplies!

"Perhaps this is Shi Ye's destiny!"

With a final sigh, Lu Yu stood up...

In any case, this war has entered its final stage, but at the same time, new problems have quietly arisen.

"Let's go...go have a look at the battlefield!"

After saying hello, Lu Yu, escorted by Dian Wei and Long Xiaoqi, headed for Yuan Jun's dilapidated stronghold.

Along the way, mourners were everywhere and blood flowed like rivers.

What a Shura field under the bloody setting sun!

…

Liu Bei defected to Yuan Shao in the past, and it seems that he also taught him his "escape" skills.

Throughout the Yuan camp, not only Yuan Shao and his three sons were running fast, but also... all the military advisors were running with wind in their steps. Maybe... they had been prepared for a long time.

Thinking about it this way, Jushu is the only one who is relatively simple...

His running speed is far inferior to that of others, not even Guo Tu.

Almost at the same time…

Lu Yu and Cao Cao, who were on both sides of the battlefield, both noticed him.

Of course, there was a reason to notice him. Among the many captives, he was undoubtedly the most handsome one.

"I was captured, I did not surrender..."

Jushuo yelled heart-breakingly, yelling at the top of his lungs.

This earth-shattering shout made Cao Cao and Lu Yu both walk towards him.

When Lu Yu saw Cao Cao, he raised his hands and saluted, while Cao Cao indicated that no more courtesy was needed...

Xu Chu, on the other hand, scratched his head.

"Is this guy stupid? He's already been captured? He's still shouting, 'I'm captured, I didn't surrender.' Is there any point in that?"

Xu Chu's words almost revealed the questions in the minds of all the soldiers.

Someone recognized him as Jushou, an important military advisor to Yuan Shao, but... why did Yuan Shao's military advisor look a little stupid? Did he get kicked in the head by a donkey?

The words came out of my mouth...

Cao Cao grinned slightly and asked Lu Yu casually.

"What do Lu Situ think?"

"Let him shout." Lu Yu smiled lightly. "It's not like he shouted it to us. These words reached the ears of the defeated Yuan Jun soldiers, and passed them to Yuan Shao through their mouths. In this way... Jushou was in Jizhou

My family will be safe! Jushou is truly a smart man!"

Hey…

After Lu Yu analyzed this, Xu Chu and the other soldiers suddenly realized, and they all muttered that there was something in Ju Chu's stomach.

Just then.

"Hahaha..." Cao Cao laughed out loud and walked up to Ju Shou.

Speaking of which, Jushou was also a student of the Imperial Academy, in the same class as Yuan Shao, and in the same class as Cao Cao...

There are still many societies in Taixue. Cao Cao and Ju Shou naturally knew each other and could be considered friends and old friends. Naturally, they knew that Ju Shou had real talents and learning.

Even... from the bottom of his heart, Cao Cao admired him and wanted to take him under his command.

"Stop shouting, everyone has run away."

Cao Cao personally went to help Ju Shou up and loosen his bonds... "Brother Ju, we have been in different camps these years and we haven't contacted you for a long time? I never thought that when I saw you here today, you would be captured by me."

Jushu is so smart...

There are two meanings in this sentence. Cao Cao had something in his words. Firstly, he wanted to persuade him to surrender, and secondly, it was to give him a blow.

However, Jushou was such a strong man, he raised his head and looked at Cao Cao coldly.

"Yuan Benchu ​​didn't listen to my plan, but you, Cao Cao, were able to obey Yin Linyan. It was for this reason that I suffered a disastrous defeat today. I can't use my talents. I deserve to end up like this and be captured by you!"

"Haha..." Cao Cao pulled Jushu up and patted the dust on his body. "Yuan Benchu ​​had no brains and didn't know how to reuse talents, so he suffered this defeat. But I, Cao Cao, am different from him. If there are talents, I will use them as soon as possible."

, I must obey my advice, brother Ju, why don’t you join me in Cao Ying, become an official in the same court as Yin Lin, and conspire with me, Cao Cao, to conquer the world!”

Cao Cao loved talents and cherished them.

These words have given Jushou a lot of face.

However, when Lu Yu heard this, he shook his head.

He thought that Lao Cao was a little naive.

After the great victory, many potential crises were covered up by the superficial flowers, and Lao Cao still did not realize the seriousness of the matter.

It is true that food and grass are a top priority.

But there is another thing that is more important than food and grass, and it will soon happen and break out in Cao's camp!

What's more... if you're not careful, you may cause a mutiny!

Military spirit!

That’s right…

Zhang He and Gao Lan brought forty soldiers down, and while food and grass were scarce, the morale of the army was also a huge unstable factor.

You know, although their heads are hot and they follow the general to surrender, their parents, wives and children are still in Jizhou and still in the north... Maybe they won't think of this in a short time, but as time goes by... they are homesick. Emotions will spread!

Why was the "embarrassment on all sides" during the period of conflict between Chu and Han so effective?

…It stems from this feeling of homesickness.
To be continued...
