The Cao family's preparations are already very sufficient at this moment.
Therefore, under Guo Jia's suggestion, Cao Cao made the decision to personally lead the troops and take the initiative to send troops to Hebei.
Yingcao planned to lure Yuan Shao to go south to fight Cao Jun while Yuan Shao had not fully recuperated and regained his strength!
Cao Cao decisively chose to attack directly.
But now there is an excuse.
Without this excuse, there is no chance to send troops.
At this time, Cao Ang had already helped Cao Cao think of an excellent excuse to send troops.
Cao Ang said: "This time when we went to Huainan to kill Yuan Shu, our army searched and intercepted several letters between Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao, which are enough evidence for Yuan Shao's rebellion and crusade against traitors!
Both Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao came from the Runan Yuan family of the fourth generation and the third lord.
Although they are a family, there is no harmony between the two of them.
Yuan Shushu is a descendant of the Yuan family, and Yuan Shao is a descendant of the Yuan family.
So Yuan Shu is the orthodox of the Yuan family, and Yuan Shao is just a servant of the Yuan family.
...
Chapter 179
However, the facts now prove that Yuan Shao's talent is far superior to Yuan Shu's.
Yuan Shu had no choice but to write to Yuan Shao.
He promised to put Yuan Shao as the mainstay, present the imperial seal of the kingdom, and support Yuan Shao as emperor.
But his status as a bastard has always been his weakness.
Why didn't Yuan Shao want to be emperor?
So I am also very yearning for the Jade Seal of Chuanguo.
If you want to get the Chuanguo Yuxi, you must rescue Yuan Shu.
That's why Cao Ang intercepted several letters from Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao who had an affair, and now they only need to hand them over to Shang Shuling Xun Yu.
Then Xun Yu taught it to the emperor, and the emperor could issue an edict openly and announce it to the world.
In this way, the evidence of Yuan Shao's collusion and disobedience and asking for the Jade Seal of Chuanguo was confirmed.
In this case, Cao Cao's dispatch of troops is no longer a matter of the Cao family and the Yuan family. With the emperor's edict, it instantly becomes a matter of the court and the Yuan family.
It also turned an illegal action into an aboveboard action.
Cao Cao was very happy when he heard this.
Guo Jia nodded and said: "Hahahahaha, it's true, Mr. Cao is a god, he can think of such a plan, admire, admire!"
Cao Ang laughed and said: "Where, it's just some cleverness. Although we have the advantage, we still can't take it lightly. This matter needs to be discussed in the long run!"
Guo Jia agreed after hearing the words: "It is indeed the case. I think this battle can be held at Guandu. This is the most suitable place!"
Why is Guandu suitable for Cao Yuan's decisive battle?
Because Guandu is located on the south bank of the Yellow River, close to Xudu.
Yuan Shao had to get through Guandu first if he wanted to attack Xudu.
If Guandu were to be attacked, Yuan Shao would surely cross the Yellow River area.
In this way, Yuan Shao's army will be stretched too long, and there will definitely be problems with his supplies at that time.
If there is a problem with the supply, it is not far from death.
Focusing on Cao Cao's side, Guandu is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and supplies are not a problem, because it is very close to Xudu.
No matter how you look at it, it is already a winning ticket.
Finally, Cao Ang and Guo Jia began to formulate strategies.
Yuan Jun has only just begun to deploy on the north bank of the Yellow River, and even the fort has not been completed.
Cao Jun should attack immediately and take the lead across the river into the north bank, first destroying all the deployments of Yuan Shao, and then directly sweeping Liyang County in Jizhou, and then sending generals such as Yu Jin and Zhang Liao to continue to expand in Hanoi.
In this way, Yuan Shao will definitely get angry, and he will send troops immediately.
At that time, Cao Cao made a detour and sent troops to station at Guandu.
The only way left for Yuan Shao was to cross the Yellow River and compete with Cao Jun at Guandu.
Cao Cao was very excited after hearing this plan!
Xun Yu was as excited about this plan as Cao Cao!
The strategy of Cao Ang and Guo Jia really made Cao Cao full of praise.
Cao Cao is very happy to have these two talents.
Now that the important issues are settled, all that remains is the question of implementation.
So Cao Cao arranged for Cao Ang and Xun Yu to stay behind, while he led Guo Jia to lead [-] elite soldiers to Hebei.
Coupled with the influence of newspapers, the news of Cao Cao's expedition spread quickly.
I saw that Cao Cao was wearing armor, and he was riding a tall horse, majestic and majestic.
And Cao Ang easily dealt with Zhang Xiu, Liu Bei, and Yuan Shu, and let Cao Cao destroy Lu Bu and come back. After half a year of cultivation, his energy state is at its peak at this moment.
In the previous few times, Cao Cao sent Cao Ang to the expedition each time.
Now it's finally Cao Ang's turn to send Cao Cao off.
Although Cao Ang told Cao Cao to be careful, he didn't feel too worried.
Cao Cao himself is very strong in strategy and use of troops, and has an unparalleled view of the overall situation and ability to control subordinates. Cao Cao also has three major military divisions, Guo Jia, Cheng Xian, and Xun You, and his generals include Zhang Liao, Yu Jin, Xu Huang, Le Yi, Xu Chu, Xia Houyuan and so on.
Thirty-five thousand soldiers, although the number is not many, but they are all brave and good at fighting.
Coupled with the fact that the medical supplies are also fully prepared, this battle is already like taking something out of pocket.
"Father, are you sure you don't want Zixiu to be the vanguard?"
