Hearing that this urgent document came from Yecheng, and looking at Yuan Shao's face getting more and more ugly, Xu You suddenly had an ominous premonition with his sixth sense. "Ahem Lord, what did Shen Zhengnan say in the letter?" Xu You courageously coughed and asked cautiously. "What did you say?" Yuan Shao suddenly roared like a lion, the expression on his face was like a beast ready to devour someone, which shocked all the civil and military staff present. They had never seen their lord like this before. anger. "See for yourself!" Yuan Shao gasped loudly, his chest heaving violently with anger, and he threw the letter in his hand hard on Xu You's face. Xu You has followed Yuan Shao for more than ten years, and the two were close friends when they were young. This is the first time that Yuan Shao has been angry with him in front of everyone, and Xu You's heart seems to have sunk to the bottom of the sea. He bent down in panic, stretched out his palm tremblingly, took the letter in his hand, and read it word by word. Every time he read the next word, Xu You's face became uglier "My lord, have mercy on me." Ah, what Shen Zhengnan said is untrue!" Faced with the harsh words of the trial judge, Xu You couldn't hold on any longer. He knelt down with a bang and argued: "You are wronged. "My lord, please don't listen to Shen Zhengnan's words. He must have made a mistake!" Yuan Shao's eyes were cold and he snorted: "Xu You, you still dare to quibble? I trusted you so much that I took all the money and supplies from Jizhou!" I was left in charge, but you stole so much money and misappropriated the law, which really disappoints me! Your son Xu Ning has also been found guilty, do you still want to deny it? " After hearing Yuan Shao's words, the civil and military staff on both sides were all shocked, and they immediately started talking among themselves. Xu You has a prominent position in the Yuan family group. Among the civil servants, he is second only to Shen Pei, Ju Shou and Feng Ji. Because he is an old friend of Yuan Shao, he is entrusted with the important task of taking charge of money and food. His power is not insignificant. The status is not unattractive. Unexpectedly, he actually embezzled the stolen goods. This is really shocking news! "My lord, please be aware that this must have been done by Xu Ning, the dog, and You Yi knows it. The thing about the painting and bonding was probably because he couldn't withstand the torture of Shen Zhengnan. . But I really didn¡¯t do anything to enrich myself!¡± At this point, Xu You could only pour dirty water on his son, clear himself first, and then try to save his family. Otherwise, the Xu family can only wait to be wiped out. Being betrayed by someone you trust is a very unpleasant feeling. Yuan Shao's face was livid, and he didn't want to look at Xu You anymore, so he ordered: "Right and left, push Xu You down and kill him, as a warning to others!" Xu You heard this. He suddenly collapsed to the ground and couldn't say a word. Chen Lin and Xu You have a close personal relationship. He hurriedly came out to plead for Xu You and said: "My lord, please rest your thunderous anger. What Xu Ziyuan said may not be false. It may be that his bad son took advantage of Ziyuan's absence at home to embezzle money. It's not necessarily true. Please give me your lord's sword." I'll leave the people behind and wait until we get back to Ye County and find out the whole story before it's too late to deal with it." We are confronting Cao Jun and killing the senior officials is not good for the morale of the army. It will not be too late to make a decision after Cao Jun is defeated and the whole story is found out!" Yuan Shao took a sip from the tea bowl and suppressed the anger in his heart. What Chen Lin and Xun Chen said makes sense. If a heavyweight like Xu You is killed on the battlefield, rumors will spread in the army and cause unnecessary consequences. It is better to wait until they return to Yecheng to settle the score with him! "Get out!" Yuan Shao angrily threw the tea leaves on Xu You's body. "I don't want to see you again. Get out of the tent. I will settle the score with you when I return to Ye County!" Thank you for your kindness!" Xu You didn't bother to wipe the tea stains on his body, and rushed out of Yuan Shao's tent in a state of pee. He returned to his tent in fear, and knelt down in front of the table, his brows twisted into a knot, and he was in pain. Thinking hard about how to get out of sin. "Yuan Benchu ??is narrow-minded and will retaliate for his anger, and the judge is not willing to give up easily. Our Xu family is afraid that this time it will be doomed!" Xu You looked up at the white tent above his head and murmured to himself. You say that you, Yuan Shao, are really not interesting. We grew up together with you. You are in the world and you are so powerful. I, Xu You, will run for you. Can't you let me get some money to leave to my heirs? As for making such a fuss? If I had known this, I should have chosen Mengde in the first place. I really regret getting on this pirate ship of yours! "There is only one way to go now. We can only help Meng De defeat this little guy Yuan Shao and march to Ye County.""It's possible to save my family" Xu You pinched his chin and said to himself, "Even if I can't save my family, I can at least save my life. Otherwise, I'm afraid all of our Xu family will be killed." . As long as I, Xu You, am still alive, our Xu family has hope of making a comeback! " Having made up his mind, Xu You abandoned his luggage, quietly came to the stable, took his mount, got on his horse, and went straight to the village gate at the rear. " Oh is that Mr. Xu? Where are you going? "The team leader guarding the gate didn't know what was happening in the big tent. He bowed and asked the distinguished Xu You respectfully. Xu You put away his panic-like mentality like a bereaved dog, showed his usual aloof expression, coughed, and held the gun in his hand. The horsewhip pointed towards Zhang He's camp five miles away, "My lord asked me to inspect Zhang He's camp! " "I see. Why don't you bring your entourage?" " The leader of the team asked with concern, without any precautions. He would never have thought that such a heavyweight would be preparing to surrender to Cao Cao at this moment. Xu You said impatiently: "I went to Zhang He's camp to check if anyone violated the regulations. Military discipline, drinking and causing trouble, shouting and cheering with followers, can soldiers who violate discipline be caught? " "Yes, yes, the adults are absolutely right, but the villain is talking too much! "The leader of the team opened the gate of the camp with a frightened expression on his face and sent Xu Yougong out of the camp. "Huhthis head was finally saved, thank God! " After Xu You left Yuan Shao's camp, he breathed a long sigh of relief, stretched out his hand to stroke his violently beating heart, and swung the whip hard on the horse's buttocks, "Drive" The gray horse raised its four hooves and rolled up a stream of smoke. , gradually headed south, and soon passed Zhang He's military camp, disappearing on the post road leading to the south When eating at noon, Yuan Shao's staff realized that Xu You was missing, and a group of people immediately exploded. After Feng Ji went to Xu You's tent and checked it, he decisively concluded that Xu You had gone to Cao Cao: "There is nothing missing from Xu You's tent, but his mount is missing. He obviously ran away alone, and there is a judge." Nan is in charge of Yecheng, so he probably doesn't dare to go back. In all likelihood, they are going south to join Cao Cao! " Yuan Shao completely agrees with Feng Ji's analysis. " As both people from Yingchuan, Xu You and Cao Cao have known each other even earlier than him, and their personal relationship is not bad. This time Xu You knows that he has caused a big disaster, and it is very likely that he went to He defected to Cao Cao in the south. "It's all your fault. If you hadn't begged for mercy, I would have chopped off this man's head!" "Yuan Shao was anxious and angry. He pointed at Chen Lin and Xun Chen and scolded them loudly. Chen Lin and Xun Chen looked at each other. They didn't expect that Xu You would cheat like this. He was like a mute eating coptis. He couldn't tell his pain, so he could only keep his head down. He kept silent and allowed Yuan Shao to scold him. He looked at the number of counselors in his tent withering away. Shen Pei was not there. Guo Tu and Xin Ping went to Qingzhou, Jushou and Tian Feng went to Bingzhou, and Xu You went to Nantou. Cao Cao was the only one left in the tent. After joining Chen Lin, Chen Zhen, Xun Chen, Puyang Xing, Han Fan, Linghu Shao and other second-rate counselors, Feng Ji suddenly felt a sense of sadness that the rabbit was dead and the fox was dead. The opponents he had been fighting openly and secretly gradually moved away, and among the remaining second-rate counselors. What's the point of showing off in front of others? It's just a chicken head! "Mr. Yuan, it's useless to complain anymore. We should try our best to minimize the consequences of Xu You's surrender to Cao!" "Feng Ji sighed, looking concerned about the country and the people. With Xu You's lessons learned, Yuan Shao did not dare to criticize Chen Lin and Xun Chen too harshly. If they ran away, the battle would be over. Ah, you can't be a mere commander without even a staff officer, right? After an emergency meeting, Feng Ji believed that the biggest threat to Xu You's defection to Cao Cao was to leak the information about Wuchao, where the food was stored. With Cao Cao's treachery, he would definitely send Heavy troops attacked the granary, cutting off the army's supply of food and fodder, and disrupting the morale of his own army. Therefore, Yuan Shao decided to send Chunyu Qiong to lead 20,000 people northward, and led his generals Sui Yuanjin, Han Juzi, Zhao Rui and others to rush north to assist Su You in defending Wuchao. In the granary, beware of Cao's heavy troops burning grain. It is not enough to guard against Wuchao. Xu You knows the deployment of troops and fortifications in each camp. Yuan Shao also ordered all the troops to break out of the camp quickly, move the geographical location, and choose a new place. To re-establish the camp to prevent Cao's army from moving the camp for no reason, the sergeants needed to work on digging piles, re-digging trenches, and setting up traps. The workload was heavy and tiring, which made Yuan Jun complain. When he knew that all this was because Xu You surrendered to Cao. After the incident, hundreds of thousands of soldiers greeted the women of Xu You's family. The news of Xu You's surrender to Cao spread widely in the wilderness of Guandu. The news was quickly captured by Yuan Mai's scouts. &nbsReported to the other side of the Yellow River.p; "Hiss the most important moment in the Battle of Guandu is finally coming!" Yuan Mai stood on the bank of the Yellow River, staring at Wuchaoze opposite, and decisively ordered: "Send my military order and ask Zhang Liao and Wang Shuang to The men and horses moved to the south of Wuchao to prevent Cao Jun from robbing the grain. After dark, all the soldiers put on Cao Jun's armor, carried Cao Jun's flag, and crossed the river before dark, aiming for Wuchao! "
