Chapter 22
"My lord, Yuan Shu has already taken control of Yangzhou. After the beginning of winter, the other party will definitely go north and march into our land of Yanzhou!"

Xi Zhicai responded casually.

Although Cao Cao was only expressing his feelings, when he opened his mouth, besides Cao Hong, he was surrounded by counselors.

The current luncheon has naturally become an agenda item.

Xi Yu ignored it, and just like Cao Hong, he ate the meals on his desk.

He seldom eats a meal like today's, let alone a cow.

Xi Zhi had just finished talking here, but Cao Cao smiled.

"Yuan Shu will come if he wants to, I'm still afraid that he won't succeed!"

Now that Yanzhou has an army of 40, Cao Cao didn't care if Yuan Shu wanted to move him when he first entered Yanzhou.

Xi Zhicai didn't take Yuan Shu to heart either, he just wanted to fight!
This battle has not yet happened, and everything is still unknown.

Of course, everyone is full of confidence.

"By the way, a few days ago, I learned that that old fellow Tao Qian had united with a large group of people, saying that he wanted to recommend Zhu Jun as the grand master, thinking of attacking Li Jue and Guo Si, and catering to the emperor.

He has a good plan. "

As he said that, Cao Cao sneered again: "It's a pity that General Zhu Jun has been conscripted into the court by Li Jue and Guo Si for some reason!"

Cao Cao was somewhat surprised when he received the news.

Unexpectedly, when I was rectifying Yanzhou, all the princes outside could not sit still, and their minds were very confused.

Tao Qian wants to meet the emperor, so why not go to Xuzhou?

Cao Cao and Yuan Shu are separated in the middle, his so-called flattery to the emperor is just an excuse!

And Tao Qian wanted to send troops to attack Li Jue and Guo Si, which was really unrealistic.

It would be true if he said that his alliance wanted to deal with Cao Cao.

"Although General Zhu Jun has a fierce personality, he has more or less seen through the intentions of Tao Qian and others. It is reasonable to be recruited to Beijing this time!"

Xun Yu responded.

Cao Cao nodded, and couldn't help looking at Xi Yu again.

Right now, Xi Yu is only focused on eating, but doesn't have the slightest intention to interrupt.

"What do you think of Fengyi?"

"Ok?"

The three of them spoke well, and when Xi Yu suddenly heard Cao Cao asking himself, he raised his head and glanced at each other subconsciously.

On the opposite side, Cao Hong also raised his head and pricked up his ears, as if he wanted to hear something.

"The lord should have received the news that Tao Qian and Yuan Shu are joining forces!

I expected that when winter begins, these two people will definitely invade our territory in Yanzhou! "

"However, this is not a big problem!"

Xi Yu said casually, as he said before, Cao Cao will win this battle!

Yanzhou gained more than 30 new troops. Although Yuan Shu's troops were in full swing, Cao Cao's troops were not weak.

These yellow scarves have just been put into effect, and Lao Cao managed to feed them with great difficulty. It's time to work hard!

"That's right, as Feng Yi said, that old thief Tao Qian did communicate with Yuan Shu!"

"I also expected that the first battle in spring would be inevitable!"

Hearing that there was going to be a war, Cao Hong's face suddenly became happy.

When tidying up the Yellow Turbans in Yanzhou, to be honest, there were too many generals under Lao Cao, and he didn't have much sense of participation.

Dealing with some defeated Yellow Turbans is nothing.

However, for him, being able to deal with the princes right now is the most important thing.

At this time, he was the only general beside Cao Cao, so it can be said that he was the first to get the moon, and he was going to talk to his elder brother later.

Cao Hong raised his ears.

The chief Cao Cao looked at Xi Yu again.

"By the way, I've sent people down the strategy of farmland that the diary planned a while ago, and now all parts of Yanzhou are waiting for the spring to be implemented!"

"However, our army will inevitably have a battle with Yuan Shu in the beginning of spring, and Zhicai will join me in the army. This is responsible for farming, and I think I can't be responsible."

He looked at Xi Yu with burning eyes, and the latter also understood at this time.

The meaning of Cao Cao's words is already very clear.

This is because he wants to leave things like farming to himself!

Xi Yu thought about it for a while, but he didn't refuse. Cao Cao's side has just started, and it's not yet the time to be comfortable.

He needs to work hard.

The matter of farming, he will not be a big deal in the future.

"My lord, since this is the case, Yu is willing to undertake this matter!"

"Oh! Fengyi is willing to undertake this matter?" Cao Cao's face was full of joy.

In his heart, he actually wanted to take Xi Yu with him when he was fighting. After all, he had seen how strong Xi Yu was.

With such a fierce general at his side, if he faced Yuan Shu, wouldn't that be a casual victory?
Even if Yuan Shu brought Lu Bu here, he didn't care at all.

It's just that Xi Yu has no intention of serving in the military, so even if he brought him along, the other party would not want to go into battle with the army.

As for the strategy of farming, Xi Zhicai and Xi Yu came up with it more or less together.

Right now, Xi Zhicai will definitely join the army with him, so naturally he can only rely on Xi Yu for this matter.

Of course, if Xi Yu refused, he would have an excuse to lead the opponent directly to the battle.

Unexpectedly, Xi Yu took the initiative to take over.

Cao Cao had nothing to say.

"Okay, since that's the case, Feng Yi will temporarily serve as the captain of Tuntian, in charge of the entire Yanzhou Tuntian!"

After the matter was settled, everyone started chatting.

After two or three sentences, Boss Cao began to ask Xi Zhicai to have a drink with each other, and Cao Hong also mixed in.

Xi Yu didn't pay attention to it, and ate on his own.

In the following days, nothing happened.

Xi Yu taught the craftsmen in Cao Yingli the construction method of Quyuanli, and Cao Jun began to build Quyuanli on a large scale.

December passed quietly.

Spring begins in the first lunar month, when the ice and snow begin to melt.

Yuan Shu in Nanyang couldn't sit still anymore, and his army began to go straight to Yanzhou Chenliu, and Xuzhou Tao Qian also attacked Yanzhou from the east at the same time.

Cao Cao ordered the Xiahou brothers to resist Tao Qian on the east side, and prepared to lead the army south to fight Yuan Shu.

At the same time, Xi Yu was coming out of Chenliu, leading a burly man to Dongjun.

Xi Yu didn't take anyone else with him when he went to Dongjun.

A few days ago, he rode alone to Chenliu and begged Dianwei directly from Chenliu prefect Zhang Miao.

Although Zhang Miao was a little surprised that Xi Yu begged for Dian Wei, he did not refuse.

At this moment, on the road to Dongjun, two horses were running side by side, and Dian Wei was looking up at Xi Yu beside him.

"Sir, what are we going to do here?"

Regarding Zhang Miao's sudden allocation of himself to Xi Yu, Dian Wei was completely confused.

Xi Yu in front of him looked very weak, he probably understood that this person wanted to recruit himself as the opponent's guard.

Dian Wei was still a little unhappy about this.

Even though he joined the army just to get enough to eat, it's the same with anyone, but he still wants to fight the enemy more or less.

 Thank you very much for seeing the typos picked up by enthusiastic readers, but the author is really not in the mood to modify it. After two days, I recovered and tried to rectify it. Thank you
