After Wu Shun finished the arrangement, the entire Wuling army began to mobilize, and the cavalry troops near Xudu were scattered outside the city.

The scope of Cao's scout exploration was drastically reduced. Under the control of Wuling Army, Cao's army could only defend Xudu. As for what was happening in the area outside the city, it was basically up to guess.

Prime Minister's Mansion.

Cao Cao naturally knew the Wuling Army's actions of making great contributions outside the city. The war was approaching, and he needed to summon everyone under his command to discuss countermeasures.

The three brothers Liu Bei who would not appear here were sitting there. The general counselors of Cao's army knew that the Wuling army might be about to go to war.

"Everyone, I believe you all know Wu Shun's actions. Let's talk about how to deal with them." Cao Cao stood up and said.

During this period, he was also thinking hard about repelling the enemy, but unfortunately he didn't think of any good idea.

Fortunately, they are all his territory, with many capable people and powerful people, and he has many good talents under his command.

In Cao Cao's view, if the Wuling Army wants to launch an attack, he can only defend himself strictly. He can only have a chance to breathe until the north enters a period of ice and snow.

"Lord, the Wuling Army is going to attack, but the last generals can only fight!"

Cao Ren came out and said.

The Wuling Army outside the city has more than 100,000, and some tricks do not play any decisive role.

The two forces have to decide the outcome, and they will eventually go through a face-to-face battle.

The current situation in Xudu is the only battle for Cao’s army!

"General Zixiao is right. The soldiers come to block the water and the soil!" Xu Huang said out of the line.

The generals never knew that Cao's army had no way out.

war!

If you win, you can continue to fight. If you lose, you can only watch the Wuling army sweep the world. Now, the Cao army is the only threatening enemy of the Wuling army.

And no matter who it is, it will be very fierce!

"Xuande, what do you think?" Cao Cao looked at Liu Bei, trying to find a breakthrough from Liu Bei.

But who is Liu Bei? He is so wise and wise. He knew that Cao Cao had no good way to deal with Wu Shun now, so he wanted to hear his opinion. However, Liu Bei was also helpless in the Wuling Army.

Based on this mentality, Liu Bei could not give any exciting suggestions to Cao Cao.

"Prime Minister, I think the city walls of Xudu are tall and have enough soldiers and enough food. I just need to defend the city. Even though the Wuling army is numerous, it may not be able to break the city."

What Liu Bei said was Cao Cao's only advantage.

Cao Cao occupied the territory and was still harmonious. The aristocratic families in the city were afraid that Wuling would come in and tried their best to support Cao Cao. Basically, they asked for money and grain.

At this time, those who were still staying in Xu Du were all those who took hope for Cao Cao and also those who hated Yizhou's policies.

They were willing to use their family's resources to provide Cao Cao with the help of Cao's army to defeat the Wuling army and protect their interests from being violated.

"It is not so easy for the Wuling Army to defeat Xu Du. Xu Du's military and civilians will work together to defeat Wu Shun and force him back to Yizhou!"

Cao Cao felt a little disappointed when he failed to hear the suggestions that excited him, but he had enough heart to defend the city.

...

"Report~"

"Report to the Prime Minister, a cavalry of Wuling Army headed behind Xudu..."

When everyone in the hall saw that it was Cao's scout.

"How many people?" Cao Cao asked.

"More than 10,000 cavalry!" replied the scout.

"What is Wu Shun's purpose in 10,000 cavalry, who entered the rear of Xudu?"

Cao Cao asked, and the scout knelt on the ground and was silent. He didn't know what Wu Shun had in his purpose. He just ran back to convey military information.

"Lord, the Wuling Army is about to attack the city. Although it is often mobilized, it is just a cavalry dispatch. Don't worry about it."

Xun You said.

He believed that only 10,000 cavalrymen would not have much impact on Xu. Moreover, Xu was not defeated, so it would be useless to let the Wuling Army go deep into the rear.

This is a false move! Xun You thinks.

"Lord, it's better to send someone to find out the intention of the cavalry!"

Xun Yu said.

Xun You said it was okay, it was just for Xu Du. If the ten thousand Wuling cavalry ran around in the rear, it would inevitably affect the entire layout.

"Send scouts and make sure to find out the arrangements of the Wuling Army!" Cao Cao ordered.

"I will obey the order!" Cao Ren immediately left the list.

In Xudu, he was responsible for defense and sent scouts to inquire about the enemy's situation, which was naturally his arrangement.

This time, Cao Cao summoned everyone to discuss, but failed.

How to mobilize the Wuling Army or how to mobilize it, it’s so blatant!

This approach of almost ignoring the scouts of Cao's army put Cao Cao and his advisers in a passive state.

I don’t know what Wu Shun’s intention is!

This is the biggest problem facing Cao's army now. The Wuling Army is mobilized like this now, and it will definitely not be like this if it really fights. This is common sense.

With this idea, Cao Cao's group even less understood what the Wuling Army intended.

When they really couldn't guess thoroughly, they even thought that the Wuling army would launch an attack sooner, so that Wu Shun's intention would naturally be exposed.

When Cao Cao could not guess Wu Shun's intentions, he did not act rashly. He ordered Cao's army to respond to changes in a constant manner.

This move was a coincidence! As long as Cao's army persisted, Wu Shun's series of actions would be wasted and he could not confuse Cao's army.

If you fail to achieve the expected goal, no matter how exquisite the layout is, it can only be a decoration.

The Wuling Army is ready to move outside Xudu City, and the Cao army is as stable as Mount Tai inside the city!

This is the current situation between the two sides!

...

In November of the 12th year of Jian'an, the weather was cold and there were still some snowflakes floating in the sky.

Just when Cao Cao thought Wu Shun was trying to scare him, the Wuling army attacked!

On November 5, Cao Ren, a famous general of the Cao army, was assassinated by a man in black in the mansion. Fortunately, his personal guards tried to protect each other, so Cao Ren was only shot by one arrow.

On November 7, General Xu Huang was assassinated. Hesitated that there were not many people in black. Xu Huang tried his best to escape without being injured!

These two incidents came to Cao Cao's ears, which made him very angry! He scolded Wu Shun for being shameless and did not dare to attack head-on, but only dared to play some despicable and shameful methods.

In addition to the black-clothed guards of the Wuling Army, Cao Cao could not have any organization with such powerful means when assassinating local generals.

Fortunately, Cao Ren and Xu Huang were assassinated, otherwise Xu Du's strength would be affected.

"Assassinate the general...by the way..."

Cao Cao suddenly remembered that it was easier for the Black Guard to assassinate his counselors than to assassinate the general.

"Send orders to Cao Ren and send additional personnel to protect all the sirs!"

Cao Cao immediately ordered Cao Ren.

If the black-clothed guards really go to assassinate, they will not be able to stop them at all, such as Xun Yu, Xun You, Chen Yu, Guo Jia and others.

Thinking of this, Cao Cao had a cold sweat!

Wu Shun's move is not vicious or vicious!

"Report, Prime Minister! Lord Guo was stabbed and seriously injured by the spy!"

It seemed as if he was joking with Cao Cao. As soon as the order was issued, the personal guard came over to report the news that Guo Jia was stabbed.

"Walk!"

Cao Cao was very anxious. Guo Jia was his capable assistant. Now he was stabbed and seriously injured. He had to go and see him in person.
