Chapter 853: Liu Bei Rebellion

After Xu You came back, he made other preparations. He didn't want to perish with Yuan Shao.

Cao Cao's actions were also very fast, and within a few days, various versions of rumors spread in Yuan Jun's barracks, but what they didn't know was that some of them were spread by Zhang Yu.

Originally, the power of Zhang Yu's dissemination was not that great. After all, some people can think, and they don't have a solid foundation.

But it's different now. With Cao Cao's imperial decree, all rumors have a basis.

Although Zhang Yu and Cao Cao have different targets, Zhang Yu has no emperor in his hands, and he can seal whoever he can't, so the target of the prince in the rumors is Yuan Sang

This made Yuan Jun even more confused.

More importantly, this involved the heirs of the Yuan family, so Yuan Shao's subordinates did not dare to deal with him. Yuan Shao has not heard of it until now.

Yuan Shao didn't know that such a thing had happened in the barracks before he got the news.

As the situation continued to escalate, Yuan Xi secretly withdrew part of the troops stationed on the border of Youzhou.

Yuan Tan did almost the same thing, while Yuan Shang wooed the powerful in Yecheng and asked them to support him.

The third son of the Yuan family, on the surface, is still amiable, but has already started to make various actions secretly.

Zhang Yu has been paying attention to all this, and he was the first to learn about Yuan Xi's actions.

"There weren't many troops in the first place, but they actually withdrew some of them. This is a great opportunity." Zhang Yu was overjoyed when he received the news.

Judging from the information, there were originally about 150,000 troops in Qingzhou, half of which were deployed on the border, and the other part supported Yuan Shao at any time.

At this time Yuan Xi secretly withdrew part of the border.

There were not many at first, and now some of them have been withdrawn.

Zhang Yu felt that the opportunity was coming, so he stepped up his preparations.

In other words, Cao Cao also lived up to his spirit and sent troops to attack Yuan Shao's grain transportation team.

This time Cao Cao paid a lot of money and asked Cao Ang to take a few generals and 50,000 soldiers and horses to attack Yuan Shao's grain transportation team.

As a result, Yuan Shao's grain was burned,

But Cao Cao's soldiers and horses only came back in the early ten thousand, and the loss was also huge.

Although the loss was huge, the result was good. Yuan Shao could not fight on the front line immediately. The soldiers only had three grains and grass, so they had to go back first and wait for new grain and grass to be replenished before continuing to fight.

A large amount of food and grass were burned, and Yuan Shao's offensive stopped immediately, so he could only retreat.

Yuan Shao was furious and ordered to punish a group of officers and soldiers.

But still had to find a way, so Yuan Shao ordered Qingzhou and Jizhou to raise a batch of grain and grass to transport them over, and at the same time mobilized some soldiers from Jizhou and Qingzhou.

Yuan Shao's transfer of troops from Qingzhou was immediately opposed. Several aides believed that their military strength was still superior and there was no need to send additional troops.

And sending additional troops would make their logistics more difficult.

But Yuan Shao believed that as soon as the support troops arrived, the whole army would press up and wipe out Cao Cao in one fell swoop, so that it would be done once and for all.

This method is feasible at other times, but they forgot that Zhang Yu, a beast, is behind Qingzhou.

"What are you afraid of? Zhang Yu was completely dragged to Jiangdong, and the Huns in the north are getting more and more violent. Now he is too busy to take care of himself and absolutely has no ability to attack us."

In this way, Yuan Shao insisted on going his own way and issued an order.

Everyone saw that this Yuan Shao was becoming more and more arbitrary, often acting on his own will, which is definitely not a good thing.

Cao Cao can breathe a sigh of relief. Although the soldiers and horses suffered a lot, they survived after all.

Cao Cao summoned his generals to discuss matters with his advisers.

"Everyone, Mr. Wen He deserves the greatest credit for defeating Yuan Shao this time and achieving a staged victory. I invite Mr. Wen He to be honored by Cao." Cao Cao got up to thank him, and Cao Ang, who was beside him, also hurriedly thanked him.

Afterwards, Cao Cao asked: "Everyone, Yuan Shao's threat is still there. We just have a chance to rest temporarily. Yuan Shao will surely make a comeback soon. What can we do?"

Yuan Shao will make a comeback, which is no longer a question that needs to be discussed, but an inevitable question.

After everyone had put forward many good suggestions, Jia Xu stood up again and said, "My lord, I have two more suggestions."

Cao Cao was overjoyed and said, "Wenhe, please speak."

Jia Xu then said: "My lord, now that the war situation has eased for the time being, we have time to deal with it, you should also become king, with so many princes becoming king, if you don't become king in your capacity, I'm afraid the momentum will be a little weaker. "

"Secondly, Zhang Yu may be the biggest beneficiary of the final result of the Yuan-Cao war. Will my lord consider letting Zhang Yu contribute a little bit?"

Jia Xu's first suggestion was quite controversial, but it was also reasonable. After discussing for a while, Cao Cao only agreed to become king after the war, and did not want to become king immediately.

But the second article, the biggest beneficiary will be Zhang Yu, which has caused great controversy.

Jia Xu is just a suggestion, and Cao Cao doesn't care how he decides after the suggestion.

Many people don't understand that Zhang Yu is the final beneficiary of the huge losses they have suffered.

"Everyone, Zhang Yu's situation is unknown. He has been held back by Sun Ce in Jiangdong, and at most he has done something in Xuzhou. As for Youzhou, I don't think he can attack Qingzhou, Jizhou, or Bingzhou." Cao Cao said.

Cao Cao has been busy dealing with Yuan Shao and has no spare energy to pay attention to Zhang Yu.

To pay attention to Zhang Yu's actions, it is necessary to collect a lot of information and then analyze them one by one. This requires a lot of energy. Now no one in the Cao Group has the energy to pay attention to Zhang Yu's situation.

Jia Xu said: "The specific actions of Zhang Yu are not known to the subordinates, but he has been hiding and has not made any actions. There must be a problem. Maybe he has been looking for opportunities."

Jia Xu firmly believed in his own judgment, but he had no way to present favorable evidence, so he could only rely on his own reasoning.

Cao Cao was also tangled, even though he knew that Zhang Yu might do something big, would he have the ability to stop it?

He is completely powerless to stop it, but if the final result is really taken by Zhang Yu, then he doesn't know how he will feel then.

But he still has a chance, as long as they win well and don't give Zhang Yu a chance, they still have a chance to get the most benefit.

No matter what, everything must defeat Yuan Shaozai.

While Cao Cao was researching, another heavy news hit Cao Cao by surprise.

This Liu Bei rebelled, and after holding back for so long, he finally rebelled.

Liu Bei raised thousands of troops in Xuzhou and rebelled.

And he quickly got Yuan Shao's support. Yuan Shao supported him with thousands of people, as well as weapons, equipment, food and grass, so that he could attack Cao Cao's flank.

Someone proposed to arrest Guan Yu, but Cao Cao did not agree, but ordered Guan Yu not to leave the barracks, and other treatment remained the same.

Liu Bei turned against Cao Cao. At this critical moment, he really couldn't hit Cao Cao.
