After hearing Chen Zhou's words, Cao Cao and the others were a little confused.
Can the people around Yuan Shao still betray Yuan Shao?
Seeing their disbelief, Chen Zhou didn't explain anything, but just smiled and said: "This traitor will appear soon. Even if he doesn't appear, I will help the lord and force him to appear. As long as he appears, Once this person arrives, we will be able to completely determine the location of Yuan Shao's food."
"Then just listen to Watanabe first!"
Cao Cao couldn't be sure for the time being, but what Chen Zhou said must have some truth to it.
Don't worry about anything, just believe it is enough.
"Lord!"
At this time, Le Jin came in from outside and said: "My lord, there is another movement in Yuan Shao's army."
Cao Cao asked: "What's the noise?"
Le Jin hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said, "I don't know what to say. Master, you will know once you go out and take a look."
What's going on outside seems mysterious.
They were confused and went outside.
However, when they arrived at the gate of the military camp and saw the actions of Yuan Shao's soldiers, they were stunned again. They finally understood why Le Jin said that they didn't know how to describe what Yuan Jun was doing, because they couldn't understand Yuan Shao's men either. doing what.
I saw a large number of Yuan Jun soldiers picking up shovels and digging soil, as if they were going to build a high platform, but it was hard to say what it was until Yuan Shao took out the things.
"this……"
Liu Ye asked: "Can Duzhi see what Yuan Shao is going to do?"
Of course Chen Zhou could see that Yuan Shao did this because he wanted to consume Cao Jun and did not dare to engage in close combat with Cao Jun's sharp weapons. So the next counterattack Cao Cao had to do was to use a catapult.
Also called the Thunderbolt Chariot, it was a weapon brought by Liu Ye.
However, at this time, in order not to continue to shock the world, he still shook his head in confusion and said: "Yuan Shao should want to build something, but it has not been completed yet, so I can't tell for the time being."
Chen Zhou couldn't understand it, and the others were even more confused. But as you can imagine, it must not be a good thing, and they were all confused.
"Zihe, you tiger and leopard knights, go out and test it out."
Cao Cao thought and said.
"yes!"
Cao Chun accepted the order and immediately arranged for Cao Xiu to take a thousand leopards out for a walk to see what Yuan Shao wanted to do.
As soon as the Leopard Cavalry came out, it disturbed the Yuan Jun soldiers.
They immediately gathered together, picked up their bows and arrows, drew their bows and shot at the tiger and leopard cavalry.
The more effective way for infantry to deal with cavalry is to shoot with long-range weapons. Seeing the cavalry preparing to charge, Yuan Jun's soldiers immediately drew their bows and fired, and Cao Xiu did not dare to get too close.
They walked around outside and couldn't see any problems, and they didn't dare to rush over to test it rashly.
He quickly retreated and returned to the military camp.
"My lord, it feels like they are just digging soil, as if they are building something."
Cao Xiu said.
Guo Jia said calmly: "Yuan Shao will not do anything without a reason. He must be doing this to deal with us. We must be on guard!"
Cao Cao nodded and said: "Fengxiao is right. Send the order. The tiger cavalry is in front and the leopard cavalry is in the back. Send out five thousand more troops to disperse the Yuan army outside!"
Since we don't know what Yuan Shao wants to do, we can judge that Yuan Shao will never do anything beneficial to Cao Ying. He must deal with the enemies outside before considering other things.
The Tigers and Leopards quickly set out again, but they discovered another problem.
That is, Yuan Jun dug horse pits nearby very quickly. As long as the cavalry passed by, the horses' hooves would be tripped. No matter whether it was a tiger cavalry or a leopard cavalry, they would not dare to rush over for a while.
Yuan Jun's preparations are extremely sufficient.
These things must be built.
Next, Cao Cao ordered the infantry to fight out, but they were shot back by a large number of arrows. Cao Cao's infantry raised their shields and rushed over. However, because the terrain of Guandu Cao's camp was relatively low, Yuan Jun moved stones and smashed them down.
Even though they raised their shields, Cao Jun could not get closer. After being knocked down by stones, many people were shot dead.
"My lord, why not retreat back and see what Yuan Shao can do."
Chen Zhou said calmly: "There is no need to go out and compete with Yuan Shao now."
Cheng Yu agreed: "What Du Zhi said makes sense. If Yuan Shao does this to lure us out deliberately, it will be detrimental to us."
In this case, and having no other choice for the time being, Cao Cao had no choice but to order all those who left the camp to retreat back. At the same time, he felt a headache for Yuan Jun outside, so he could only wait and see.
This wait lasts for several days.
Yuan Jun's earth mountain has finally been built to a certain scale and seems to be ready for use.
Those mountains are actually more like high platforms.
Standing above, one can have a panoramic view of Cao Cao's camp, leaving Cao Cao with no privacy at all.
Yuan Shao was standing on a hill at this time, looking down at Cao Cao's camp. His eyes suddenly lit up and he laughed and said, "I am here to see all of Cao Cao's troop deployment. This hill is interesting. I want to see what else Cao Cao can use to fight me."
Cao Cao got the news and walked out.
Those mountains are no longer unfamiliar to him.
However, when he heard Yuan Shao's laughter coming from Tushan, he raised his head and shouted, "Yuan Benchu, what are you going to do?"
"Ha ha……"
Yuan Shao smiled excitedly and said: "You want to know what I am going to do? Then I will help you now. Pass my order and all the archers will prepare and aim at Cao Cao's position."
The mountain was instantly filled with archers.
They are above, with a particularly good view, and they are condescending. If they shoot cold arrows at this time, they can catch Cao Jun off guard.
"shoot!"
Yuan Shao shouted loudly.
"Lord, this is not good!"
When Xu Chu saw this, his expression changed drastically and he dragged Cao Cao back.
Gao Shun picked up a shield and rushed forward, blocking Cao Cao and Xu Chu.
The distance between Tushan and Cao Ying is a bit far, beyond the effective range of the bow and arrow, but it is still within the range of the bow and arrow. The accuracy can be said to be arbitrary, but once the number is large, accuracy is not a problem.
A large number of arrows rained from the sky.
Landed on Gao Shun's shield.
Many other soldiers who were close to Cao Cao were also shot dead by Liu Ya.
"Get out of the way!"
Ma Chao shouted.
The next moment, the soldiers outside the military camp were shot by bows and arrows on the mountain.
Those who couldn't escape fell down one after another.
"Sir, be careful!"
Ma Chao picked up a shield and stood in front of Chen Zhou, and they slowly retreated back.
Chen Zhou was still relatively calm, because he had predicted what Yuan Shao would do next and did not move too far forward, so the impact was not great. At this time, he retreated out of the shooting range, and together with Cao Cao and the others, looked up towards the mountain.
"This earth mountain has our entire military camp in sight."
Cao Cao swallowed his saliva and said in shock: "Yuan Shao's move is to constantly harass and consume us. What do you think?"
Tushan is not scary, but it is disgusting.
If they want to attack the mountain, they will easily be shot back by Yuan Jun's arrows.
Hahaha……
At this time, a large burst of laughter could be heard in the mountains.
