    "Close the city gate and set fire!" A loud shout pierced the silent night sky.  "Kill! Don't let Cao Hong run away." A louder voice responded loudly.  Dozens of rockets passed through the dark night sky.  not good!  Got ambushed again.  Cao Hong was so remorseful that he almost vomited blood.  He yelled at the top of his lungs: "Retreat! Retreat! Retreat quickly." Cao's soldiers, who had all poured into Hulao Pass, once again had to run frantically outside the city.  At this time, sparse flames began to appear on both sides of the main road.  Thick smoke also billowed from the distance inside Hulao Pass.

    A large number of Cao soldiers crowded at the city gate, and everyone wanted to escape as soon as possible from this area that was about to become a sea of ??fire.  Cao Hong, who was full of regret, had no time to think about anything else.  He shouted loudly: "The supervising team obeys the order! Anyone who breaks into the city gate will be killed by me!" He waved a big knife mercilessly.  The blood stained the heads all over the city gate, and this group of Cao soldiers became more awake.  But just when Cao Hong had just restored some order, several rockets hit the pile of firewood that had been prepared near the city gate, and flames started to rise.  Cao Bing, who had been calm just now, became uncontrollably crazy again.

    Cao Hong had no choice but to flee for his life.  After running for twenty miles in a row, Cao Hong gathered his remaining soldiers.  Cao Hong hates this: Why am I such an idiot?  The empty city must be protected from fire.  Why had I forgotten all about such simple military common sense?  I don¡¯t even think about it, can someone give me an empty city for no reason?  Is there no conspiracy in this?  However, while feeling remorseful, Cao Hong could not help but secretly curse Youzhou's troops for being too vicious and daring to set the entire city on fire. This also showed too little concern for the lives of the people.  It is so inconsistent with the Youzhou army's consistently good reputation.  What an army of hypocrites.

    Soon the troop count report came up, and there were only 25,000 of the 30,000 forward troops left.  But except for the little dry food that the soldiers carried with them.  All other supplies have been lost.  Cao Hong was very happy about this.  Even though he was caught in such an ambush, his entire army was not wiped out. Instead, he led so many soldiers to escape.  I still have some luck.  Cao Hong ordered his men to light a fire.  Boil the dry food you have with you, and simply eat something and take a rest.  Waiting to join the main force tomorrow.  Replenishing.

    However, just as Cao Hong's troops were on fire.  The dry food has been heated up, but I haven¡¯t had time to eat it yet.  The deafening sound of horse hooves came from a distance.  In the dark night, he didn't know how many people came from the other side.  Cao Bing, who had been running nervously without rest for a long time, blew up the camp at that time.  Before Cao Hong could calm down the soldiers, the cavalry had already arrived.  One of the generals shouted loudly: "Zhang Wenyuan from Youzhou has come to see off General Cao."

    As the words fell to the ground.  Zhang Liao had already led his troops and rushed into Cao Hong's temporary camp.  This time, Cao Hong was lucky enough to make a temporary camp.  There is not even a village wall.  There are no fortifications, only a few fires can hold them together.  Isn't this just asking Zhang Liao and the others to make the trip?  Several heavy rains of arrows.  Cao Hong's troops had to run again, and the long carbine was also quickly taking the lives of Cao's soldiers who fell behind.  The violent shouts of killing made Cao Hong's troops run like a herd of sheep.  Morale was low and the army was defeated.  Cao Hong had no choice but to flee with the defeated army.

    So many times, as soon as Cao Hong's troops stopped to rest.  Zhang Liao's soldiers and horses will come to see him off soon.  Cao Hong's troops were sent to Xiahou Dun's camp. This was the end.  Xiahou Dun originally wanted to counterattack, but when Xiahou Dun ordered his troops and horses, he found that the morale of his soldiers was a bit low.  The condition is not very good either.  It was obviously his fault that he had been harassed continuously for the past two days without getting any rest, coupled with the impact of Cao Hong's defeat.  Looking at the state of Cao Hong's troops, it was just one more breath than a dead man.  And everyone looked terrified.  Xiahou Dun sighed: How can we fight with just these soldiers and horses?  Just take a rest.

    At this time, Zhang Liao was smiling proudly in Hulao Pass.  The Hulao Pass is also intact.  Burning the tiger prison?  That's totally out of the question.  This is just Zhang Liao's plan.  If Cao Hong had not fled in fear at that time, it would have been Zhang Liao's turn to retreat.  Of course, if you have to say that lighting a few piles of harmless firewood in the huge Hulao Pass can be considered a fire.  Then the burning of Hulao can barely be tolerated.  but.  That can only be regarded as a picnic and barbecue in Hulao Pass.

    You must know that although Hulao Pass is a military fortress, there are also many civilians accompanying the garrison.  In just a few days.  Zhang Liao and Gan Ning couldn't even deal with the prisoners, so how could they have so much time to mobilize these people to move?  Now the people on the ground in Sili are not as easy to coax as when Liu Bin moved the people of Luoyang to Youzhou.  At that time, Dong Zhuo was a villain and burned down Luoyang with a fire.  All the people were homeless and jobless, so it was certainly much easier for Guo Jia to deal with them.  However, there are still quite a few people who are unwilling to leave their homeland.  But now, let alone the internal affairs mobilization capabilities of Zhang Liao and Gan Ning,Not as good as Guo Jiadan.  It's just that few of these people are willing to give up the industries they have built here.  The Chinese people¡¯s love affair with the soil is truly terrifying and stubborn.  As long as there is no crisis of genocide, these people will not abandon the land left to their descendants.

    Since the people won¡¯t leave, how can Zhang Liao really dare to set a fire?  Isn't this a scolding for the lord?  Therefore, Zhang Liao was just bluffing.  And even Zhang Liao had settled all the people.  Zhang Liao would not really set fire to burn Cao Hong's troops.  It is easy to burn out Cao Hong's troops.  But that was just a trap for Cao Cao's 30,000 troops.  This may force Cao Cao to desperately launch an all-out war with Liu Bin.  It was an advantage for Yuan Shu and others who were watching eagerly nearby.  This is contrary to the strategic intention of the staff.  It is also expressly prohibited by the General Staff.

    Now Zhang Liona also received similar orders as Cao Hong and Xiahou Dun, not to kill Cao Cao's troops on a large scale, forcing Cao Cao.  However, Cao Cao's main force must be firmly held in Sili to facilitate the control of Qingzhou.  Then try to get as much Xuzhou chassis as possible!  To put it bluntly, today's Liu Bin and Cao Cao.  That is the fear of both sides.  No one wants to trigger a decisive battle at this time and take advantage of outsiders.  And we must strive for the greatest benefits based on the bottom line that the other party can tolerate.  Therefore, Zhang Liao brought the three thousand cavalry with him.  They were divided into ten teams of 300 men each, and they all pretended to be led by Zhang Liao.  Continuous attacks on the troops of Cao Hong and Xiahou Dun delayed their march and were exhausted by constant suspicions.

    And it was the time when Zhang Liao was playing with Cao Hong and Xiahou Dun.  Liu Bin also received news of Cao Ren's mission to Youzhou.  Guo Jia congratulated Liu Bin and said, "Congratulations, my lord! Congratulations, my lord." Liu Bin wondered, what's so gratifying about Cao Cao sending an envoy?  However, Liu Bin also looked happy when he saw Jia Xu, Xun Yu and others.  He immediately knew what Guo Jia said.  He must have a reason, so he said calmly: "It's just so so. There's nothing exciting about it. Instead, you have to be more careful."

    Guo Jia is so awkward!  It was like punching the air with all his strength.  Guo Jia secretly complained: Why didn't my lord cooperate this time?  You won't be able to tell where the joy comes from.  This way I can continue talking.  What do I say now?  Liu Bin looked at Guo Jia's look and was secretly proud: I just won't ask.  I'm suffocating you.  Let me see if you say it or not.  Guo Jia looked at Liu Bin's smile and misunderstood.  Guo Jia immediately thought of a possibility.  I broke out in a cold sweat and had to admire Liu Bin's high pole.

    Jia Xu on the side saw that Guo Jia and Liu Bin were going off topic again, and said quickly: "My lord is right! There is really nothing exciting about this matter. Even if Cao Cao is not going to give Xuzhou to us. According to our plan  , then Xuzhou is also in our pocket. It just saves us some effort. My lord can order Guan Hai of Qingzhou to capture Xuzhou." But Jia Xu never expected that he had just finished speaking.  Guo Jia objected: "Wait a minute! This matter needs to be discussed in the long term. We seem to have missed a critical link. If the lord hadn't reminded us, we would have suffered the consequences of Cao Cao." Guo Jia was full of emotions when he said this.  Everyone was shocked.

    Jia Xu, Xun Yu, Xun You and others are all people with profound wisdom.  The entire Xuzhou battle plan.  Except that stationing troops in Guandu didn't work at the beginning, every step after the modification was perfect.  Countless battle reports came in that proved this.  How could Cao Cao have other ways to cope with this?  However, Jia Xu, Xun Yu, Xun You and others knew that Guo Jia was definitely not a sensationalist.  There must be a reason for it.  And since Guo Jia mentioned the lord Liu Bin, it is even more impossible to be wrong.  Although Guo Jia and Liu Bin have a very close relationship, they still make some harmless jokes from time to time.  But Guo Jia would never joke about such a thing.  And with the tacit understanding between Guo Jia and the Lord.  It is not surprising that Guo Jia can learn some hints from his lord.  But the problem is that the envoy sent by Cao Cao, apart from giving Xuzhou to Liu Bin so that Liu Bin can retreat, what tricks can Cao Cao play?

    With Guo Jia¡¯s assertion, the atmosphere in the conference hall seemed a bit mysterious for a while.  Everyone was lost in thought.  Among them was Liu Bin who was smiling.  Liu Bin was satisfied that this was an event that everyone considered a happy event, and there was no harm in making some jokes.  But who knew that Guo Jia could still understand some spirit from here.  It's really amazing.  Although Liu Bin remained calm on the surface, Liu Bin was secretly smiling bitterly: the joke was a bit too big.  What if Guo Jia lets himself give everyone some pointers.  What should I do?

    But while Liu Bin smiled bitterly, he was also secretly glad: Since Guo Jia can think of the problem, it doesn't matter how he understood it.  There must still be a problem here.  There is no way that this guy Cao Cao could be so honest and just follow his own wishes.  If you can see it early, you will have the advantage of being early.  However, Liu Bin's little worry was somewhat unnecessary.  These people under Liu BinObviously, there is no need for Liu Bin to remind or explain.  Not long after Guo Jia finished speaking.  Jia Xu was the first to realize: "Yes, yes. There are indeed some problems here. This Cao Cao is indeed very cunning. If he succeeds, it will be really detrimental to our strategic deployment in Youzhou. But now that the lord has discovered it, as long as we  Implement certain measures. Then there will be nothing to worry about these little tricks of Cao Cao."

    After Jia Xu figured it out, Xun Yu also figured it out.  He said approvingly: "Wen He's words make sense. These little tricks of Cao Cao's are just some small conspiracy methods. They are not as powerful as the majestic and upright talents of the Lord." Xun You was the slower one among these people.  But he also came to his senses while the people in front of him were talking for a while.  He also nodded and smiled.  Now it was Liu Bin's turn to almost vomit blood.  Liu Bin is so depressed!  You talented people have figured it out and explained it clearly.  How come you just get paid and don¡¯t work?  You all understand and don't tell me, are you worried about killing me?

    However, although Liu Bin was very anxious in his heart, Guo Jia's previous words came to the bottom.  Liu Bin couldn't ask in a hurry.  He could only maintain an appearance of complete understanding calmly.  Good thing about the people in it.  Not all of them are sensible people.  There are still one or two confused.  For example, Dian Wei is still confused.  Dian Wei looked around: OK.  good.  Everyone understands it, but I am still confused.  But Dian Wei didn't care.  Seeing these people's brains is faster than mine, there is no way to compare.  Moreover, these people are not outsiders, so there is nothing to take into consideration.  Dian Wei immediately touched his head and said with a smile: "Fengxiao, what riddles are you trying to solve? I'm stupid and I'm not as good as you. You should explain it to me so that I can understand the details."

    Hearing this, Guo Jia said: "Old Dian. This is what the lord has seen, and it is up to the lord to speak." Come on!  I knew your kid would say that.  Liu Bin muttered secretly in his heart.  But on the surface, he didn't miss anything.  Pretending to be noncommittal, he said: "Now that you all understand, it's much easier to handle. You can write it down with pen and paper. I'll judge with you. Lao Dian can also understand it by observing it." Guo Jia and others thought that Liu Bin was just for observation.  You and others, do you really understand or do you pretend to understand?  So they didn't object, and each took out paper and pen to write down and handed it to Liu Bin.  Liu Bin opened it and saw that there were two big characters all over it: Use the room.

    Liu Bin immediately understood: now his biggest advantage.  That is the strict confidentiality measures.  All military situations are unknown to outsiders.  You can let yourself use the tactics of suspicion at will.  (To be continued)
