After quietly stationed in the mountains and forests outside Xutian for a night, the army led by Yuan Shang continued to march towards Xudu.

In less than a few days, the troops had already arrived at the outer city of Xudu. Looking at Xudu from afar, Yuan Shang couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.

As the temporary capital of the Han Dynasty, Xu Du does have its extraordinary and unique features.

The capital standing in Yuan Shang's eyes was towering into the sky. The city was tall and four or five feet tall. Heavy stones were pressed down on it, the walls were thick and thick, and the momentum was extraordinary.

The trench below is wide and deep, and the water accumulates in the inner part is extremely rigorous and clean.

It is still several miles away from the gate of Xudu. Looking up, you can also find a fiery red flag on the city wall swaying in the wind. The flag embroidered with a black red-edged gold-edged character.

"Chinese!"

"Young master, what should I do? Will I force the siege to the city?" Zhang Heda immediately stepped forward and asked Yuan Shang.

Yuan Shang shook his head and smiled and said, "Don't be so anxious. We are here to scare us. We can't be more tempted than to fight them!"

Gao Lan heard this and said, "What should we do according to the views of the young master?"

Yuan Shang lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head and said, "In this way, five thousand cavalry, we sent a thousand to run back and forth among the woods in the north, making him dust fly, making the enemy mistakenly think that we have a large group of troops to respond. The remaining four thousand soldiers were divided into three groups to siege the city, each at the east, west and south gates, shaking flags and shouting with great momentum, leaving the north gate all the way."

Gao Lan didn't react for a moment and said strangely: "Why is it because of the three circumferences and one circumference?"

Zhang He understood it: "Leave the North Gate and let the messenger of Cao's army rush out to report the message to Cao Cao."

Yuan Shang laughed and said, "General Zhang is so smart. Okay, please let the two generals separate immediately and prepare to fight... No, it's besieging Xu Du!"

"promise!"

***************************

Xu Du, Shangshu Ling Mansion.

Today, everyone knows that Cao Cao, the Sikong of the Han Dynasty, suppressed the Yellow Turbans, attacked Dong Zhuo, attacked Yuan Shu, eliminated Lu Bu, surrendered Zhang Xiu, and expelled Liu Bei. He is famous and has achieved great results. Looking at the world, he can be said to be the number one hero in the world.

However, how many people know that behind this great military achievements, there is another person who has been stabilizing the rear for Cao Cao for ten years, formulating political strategies, locating internal affairs, recommending talents, issuing laws, purchasing military supplies, and preparing food and grass.

It can be said that this man used his back to silently support Cao Cao, or the entire Cao family to support the beautiful mountains and rivers of the Central Plains.

At this time, the study room of the Shangshu Ling Mansion was still very busy. Shangshu Ling Xun Yu stood up and leaned over in front of the table to read the accounts of the grain collection this month.

For more than ten years, for Xun Yu, it has become common for him to approve his official duties all day long, and ordinary things can no longer be ordinary.

Especially at this special moment, we must seize the time even more, and we cannot relax every moment.

It is reported that the Battle of Guandu is coming to an end, and the war ahead is developing in a direction that is beneficial to oneself. At this critical moment, he, the leader who is in charge of Cao Cao's rear, needs to be more motivated and grasp every little item well, so as not to make any small mistakes.

Unfortunately, God’s will often not follow others’ wishes.

"Lingjun, Xun Lingjun!" Xun Yu was frowning and reviewing the official documents, but he saw a servant rushed into the study and bowing to Xun Yu: "Honor Xun Lingjun, something big happened!"

Xun Yu's expression changed. The attendant followed him for many years and had always been calm and calm, cautious. Things that could make him so panicked must be extraordinary.

"What's wrong?" Xun Yu asked calmly.

"Jun Xun Lingjun! The big thing is not good! Many Yuan soldiers appeared from outside the city from somewhere, each of whom was full of murderous aura and imposing. They stood outside my Xudu City and shouted loudly, as if they were siegeing the city!"

Xun Yu's eyelids jumped when he heard this......

It should be early or not, it should be late, but I ran over at this time!

"How many soldiers and horses are there? Who is in charge?"

The attendant wiped his sweat and shook his head and said, "The dust in the north is everywhere, the banner is swaying, and I can't see how many soldiers and horses are. The vanguard troops nearby are all elite cavalry, and the commander's flag is written by "Pioneer Officer Zhang He" and "Deputy Pioneer Gao Lan".

Xun Yu was shocked.

"It was these two people who came? The only two remaining people in the Four Courtyards of Hebei actually arrived. It seems that this time the situation is not good... Yuan Jun actually paid a lot of money for the capture of Xu Du..."

"Follow me to look up the city wall!" Xun Yu waved his sleeves, got up and walked out.

******************************

When we arrived on the city tower, we saw that the iron cavalry below had surrounded the three gates, and the soldiers were scattered and shouted loudly, looking extremely arrogant.

Looking further away, there was so much smoke and dust and sand flying. It seemed that there were still many soldiers coming bravely towards us, but it seemed that there would be no missing one.

At the south gate, a young man with extremely handsome appearance and silver armor, under the escort of a group of iron cavalry, came to the city gate like stars and shouted loudly on the city wall: "Listen to the Cao army on the city wall, you are surrounded by our army. Those who know the truth will quickly put down their weapons and surrender! We will not let our army surround you to fight you... Repeat, you have been surrounded by us, and those who know the truth will put down your weapons, otherwise our army will fight you."

Xun Yu frowned and looked at the man who was shouting deeply, with some doubts in his heart.

This man has a good appearance and looks, and seems to have seen him somewhere, but Xun Yu has always had excellent brain power and is known to be unforgettable. If he had seen him, he would never have remembered him.

"Who is this young man?" Xun Yu thought for a long time but couldn't understand it.

Her handsome eyebrows, a bold nose, a proud posture, and a domineering words...

After a while, Xun Yu was suddenly shocked: "Why does this kid look so similar to Yuan Shao when he was young!"
