After heaving a sigh of relief, Cao Cao suddenly thought that it was time for the army to transport food and grass again.

Now the person responsible for transporting grain and grass is Xi Yu.

After some time, he might be able to ask Xi Yu himself.

……

Yanzhou, Juancheng!

The new grain and grass supplies have been loaded onto the trucks by the supply battalion.

Xi Yu turned around and looked at Xun Yu and Cheng Yu in front of him.

"You two, Yanzhou will be entrusted to you this time!"

There was no need to delay the provision of grain and fodder ahead. The collected grain and fodder had already been loaded onto the truck. As the commander of the supply camp, Xi Yu naturally had to set off with the supply camp.

Nowadays, Yanzhou is unstable, and food and grass matters are the top priority.

Although the current situation in Yanzhou seems a bit unfavorable, what is unexpected is that Xiahou Dun of Puyang actually blocked Lu Bu.

"Be loyal and transport food with peace of mind. I guarantee that Juancheng and other places will be safe!"

Xun Yu nodded. At this moment, whether Xi Yu stays or not does not actually affect the overall situation.

The rebellions in various places in Yanzhou cannot be stopped by Xiyu alone.

At this moment, they only need to stick to the town they currently control, and wait for a while until Cao Cao takes action.

The dilemma can be solved!

"Be righteous and have peace of mind. As long as we are here, nothing will happen to Juancheng!"

Cheng Yu beside him also nodded.

Nowadays, the entire family members of Cao Ying basically live in Juancheng. Even if the entire Yanzhou falls, they must ensure that Juancheng is safe and sound.

Xiyu naturally understood what the two of them meant.

Whether he stays or not, the effect he will have is minimal.

Even though he has outstanding military strength, perhaps the only thing he can guarantee during the entire Yanzhou rebellion is that nothing will happen to his family!

And with Xun Yu and Cheng Yu there, it is not difficult to hold on to a few towns. In addition, there is also Xiahou Dun's garrison. At worst, we will just hold on to Juancheng in the end!

"That's good!"

Nodding towards the two of them, Xi Yu sent Dian Wei to lead the baggage battalion and set off slowly, then returned to the opera house and gave Gan Mei a few words.

At sunset, he caught up with the baggage camp in front of them escorting grain and grass.

……

When Xi Yu led the heavy supply battalion and pressed down the military supplies needed by Cao's army, he once again marched towards Xuzhou.

Lu Bu, who could not capture Puyang on the other side, had no choice but to withdraw his troops.

At this moment, inside Lu Bu’s camp.

Lu Bu looked at Chen Gong beside him with a dark face, saying nothing.

Xiahou Dun was entrenched in the town and could not get out, while most of Lu Bu were Xiliang cavalry, not soldiers who were good at capturing towns.

It will not be easy to capture Xiahou Dun this time.

Xiahou Dun seemed to have learned of his arrival, and he had been hiding in the city for days without any intention of going to war.

"Your Majesty, for this plan, we will move to fight in other towns in Yanzhou!"

Chen Gong gave Lu Bu an admonishment. Now, he and Zhang Miao have communicated well with the Yanzhou nobles.

Once the important towns on Lu Bu's side were established, all parts of Yanzhou would surrender to Lu Bu, but he never expected that Lu Bu would meet Xiahou Dun as soon as he came up.

If it had been another defender, the town might have been captured by now.

"Hmph, that person will only hide in the town. If he fights with me in the wild, I will behead him within three days!"

Lu Bu was a little disdainful.

Chen Gong and others on the side heard this and did not refute. Lu Bu's military power is known to the world.

Because of this, the other party would not be stupid enough to confront Lu Bu head-on.

Chen Gong was a little helpless. After all, his plan failed, and he was even tricked by Xun Yu.

If Lu Bu had launched a surprise attack earlier, Xun Yu would not have had time to arrange all this.

However, Cao Jun is currently in Xuzhou, and the weather is with me.

"By the way, I heard the spies came to report that Cao Jun's grain and grass are already on their way to Xuzhou?"

As if he thought of something, Lu Bu suddenly raised his head and asked Chen Gong.

After hearing this, Chen Gong frowned and nodded subconsciously.

"That's right, the grain and grass collected by Yanzhou some time ago has been transported from Juancheng to Xuzhou, and it has just set off now!"

"Grain and grass!"

Lu Bu gritted his teeth and bit the two words very hard.

Now, he has led his troops from Hanoi to Yanzhou, and the army is consuming a lot of food and grass every day.

Zhang Yang will no longer provide him with any food and grass.

As for Zhang Miao's Chenliu, it was only a mere place, and the time it could provide him could not last very long.

"Your Majesty, the most urgent task is to capture a place, and then the worry of food and grass can be easily solved!"

Chen Gong spoke up.

Lu Bu only needs a few towns in Yanzhou, whether it is to collect grain and grass on the spot, or to ask for it from the Yanzhou nobles.

There will never be a shortage of food and grass even if you think about it.

Hearing this, Lu Bu just frowned.

Trouble!

"Hasn't all Cao's army's food and grass been confiscated? Wouldn't it be easier for me to directly seize Cao's army's food and grass?"

Lu Bu curled his lips and chuckled.

Now they have received news that Cao's army has just set off with food and supplies. All of his men are Xiliang cavalry, chasing them day and night.

It takes less than two days to catch up with Cao Jun's grain transport team.

With his ability, wouldn't it be easy to seize Cao's army's food and grass?

What other towns need to be captured?

For Lu Bu, what he is most in need of right now is food and grass.

It would be a waste of time to wait until a town is captured and then collect it locally or ask for it from the nobles.

Wouldn't it be easier to directly seize the food and grass that Cao Jun has prepared?

This move can solve his current need for food and grass.

They can even take this opportunity to hit Cao Jun on the Xuzhou front line.

This can be said to be a good thing that kills two birds with one stone.

Lu Bu felt that his thoughts suddenly became clear at this moment. After saying these words, he couldn't help but look at Chen Gong in front of him.

The latter was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Lu Bu to have such an opinion.

"What you said is true, this move is indeed a masterstroke!"

In just a moment, Chen Gong already figured out how much damage this move would cause to Cao Cao.

Without this food and grass, Cao Cao in Xuzhou will have no choice but to withdraw his troops, and Lu Bu has already occupied the entire Yanzhou by then.

By that time, Cao Cao cannot advance and capture Xuzhou, and cannot retreat to save Yanzhou.

There is no way to advance or retreat.

Wonderful, really wonderful!

"Do you know which road Cao Jun's grain road is, and who is responsible for supervising the grain transport team?"

After deciding to seize food and grass, Lu Bu casually asked Chen Gong.

Upon hearing this, Chen Gong immediately called the spies in.

After some questioning, Lu Bu and others soon knew the location of Cao's army's food road, and even more so that the person in charge of supervising the food and grass was Xi Yu.

"Xiyu?"

It seems that this name Lu Bu has been heard before, and it sounds familiar.

He subconsciously opened his mouth and muttered a few words. At this moment, Zhang Liao couldn't help but remind him aloud.
