Chapter 1065: Spread the Word

? Generally speaking, to trap a city, the defending side basically does not increase much consumption.

The cost of the encircling party will be several times that of the defending party.

On the side defending the city, the grain and grass are all around, and there is no need to transport it from other places, but the side surrounded by it is different.

If there is the same 300,000 troops, Zhang Yu's side will mobilize hundreds of thousands of people to transport food and grass for them, and these hundreds of thousands of people will also have to eat.

Calculated in this way, Zhang Yu's party is not the problem of food for 300,000 people, but the food and drink of millions of people.

Calculated in this way, the test for Zhang Yu and the others is very huge.

Huge consumption, which will overwhelm the entire site.

However, Zhang Yu has no such worries.

He has money and has a lot of funds to call on, and food is not a problem.

A large amount of grain and grass were transported over.

Zhang Yu and the others began to dig trenches to prevent the troops inside from getting out.

After several days of digging, a trench with a width of more than ten meters and a depth of more than two meters was dug to surround the entire city.

"Zhang Yu wants to trap us?"

There was no battle, so Cao Cao led people to the top of the city to watch.

Cheng Yu shook his head and said, "Zhang Yu is not without wisdom, they must have other purposes."

None of the counselors and Cao Cao thought about what Zhang Yu was going to do, but they were not in a hurry if Zhang Yu didn't attack.

After watching from the top of the city for a few days, Zhang Yu's army was only doing defense and training, and there was no other action.

This makes them very puzzled.

Zhang Yu's army squatted outside the city, and finally simply trained there.

Cao Cao went up to the top of the city again, and seeing the appearance of the army outside the city, he was always puzzled.

Only Cheng Yu went to the city with him that day.

"This Zhang Yu,

Could it be that they want to lure Lu'an's army to come to support them, and then annihilate them. " Cao Cao asked.

Cheng Yu said: "My lord, it is possible, but Zhang Yu has been very urgent in the past two years. Several times, he would rather sacrifice more than speed up the progress of the attack. This time the situation is very unusual."

This time it was really unusual that Zhang Yu changed his tactics and surrounded them in the city.

This may be protracted.

And Zhang Yu asked the soldiers to train well, which just added a large number of recruits.

And he planned in the big tent.

"You can create more speeches to make Cao Jun internally chaotic."

"Taking advantage of Cao Cao's absence, they are expanding again and are in urgent need of talents. They secretly arrange some people to go there. The positions cannot be high. After that, it will depend on their abilities."

"Intensify the offensive from the north. Without Cao Cao's instructions, there may be some internal problems."

Zhang Yu is planning, Cao Cao is not there, it is a good time to disintegrate their internal affairs.

Zhang Yu wrote out each item, ready to implement.

It is not useless for him to trap Cao Cao here, but it has a great effect.

If Cao Cao is trapped, he will have no way to control the entire Cao Group.

Although there is still Cao Ang and many of his subordinates, if he is absent for a long time and rumors spread, there will definitely be chaos inside.

Zhang Yu wanted to cause great chaos within the Cao Group.

Moreover, Cao Cao is not here, many things cannot be dealt with in time, and there will definitely be internal accidents at that time.

Soon, a month passed, Zhang Yu didn't fight again, and Cao Cao and the others became more and more anxious.

At this time, he has not received information for a long time, and he does not know what is going on here.

At the same time, Cao Jun around was also very anxious.

They wanted to infiltrate, but Zhao Yun sent soldiers to cover the surrounding area for ten miles, and then searched intensively in a radius of thirty miles to prevent the enemy's scouts from entering.

In this way, Cao Cao completely lost contact with the outside world.

Cao Cao is still calm here, but not calm outside.

Cao Cao was surrounded inside, and the other Cao troops were very nervous. Cao Cao lost contact with his general for about a month, which made them very nervous.

I was very nervous and didn't know what to do.

Cao Jun around was restless, but he didn't dare to send troops easily, fearing that he would fall into Zhang Yu's trap.

Cao Cao realized this, and said: "We have been besieged for a month, and the outside world does not know our situation, which is very disadvantageous to us. I am afraid that some troops will be fooled and rush to rescue."

Cao Cao asked everyone to see if there was any way.

As a result, no one could do anything.

"Get out?"

Obviously impossible.

Zhang Yu built a strong line of defense outside, and then dug a trench. It was impossible for them to jump through the trench.

So, Cao Cao and the others have nothing to do.

However, Zhang Yu really wanted to draw out the troops from other cities, but this was not the main purpose.

For a month, Zhang Yu didn't do anything.

Those who spread rumors are ready and waiting for when it will start.

In addition, Zhang Liao's attack went smoothly.

Everything is developing in the direction Zhang Yu envisioned.

A few days later, Zhang Yu still didn't make any move.

A lot of supplies were shipped over.

Zhang Yu planned for a long time in the big tent, and came out for a stroll today.

"Hehe, there are markets here."

Zhang Yu inspected it, and unexpectedly some people came here to sell things.

Of course, this is also allowed by Zhang Yu, and the people who can come here have also been selected, and they are all people from Hefei City.

But they can only be on the periphery, because Zhang Yu asked them to help transport grain and grass, and some people brought some things to sell.

"Well, yes, there are fruits to eat."

Zhang Yu bought some fruit to eat in a small market.

"General, if you like it, eat more. It doesn't cost money." said the fellow seller.

Zhang Yu took another orange and ate it.

"Money must be given, otherwise no one will dare to eat."

The common people also smiled. They dared to come here to sell things because they knew that the army here would definitely give them money.

Other places are afraid of the army, but they are not.

Zhang Yu wandered around and saw the people helping to transport grain and grass, as well as a lot of firewood.

If the army here wants to cook, it has to burn fire and let the people transport it.

Zhang Yu felt that these people must have spies from the enemy, who happened to spread the news.

Zhang Yu deliberately bought food from a small vendor.

"Brother, how is the business selling Chaos here?"

The chaotic seller was an old man, he laughed and said, "Haha, everyone is helping, business is good."

Zhang Yu ate a few mouthfuls, and then praised the taste.

The old man saw that Zhang Yu was easy to talk, and he happened to be idle at the moment, so he asked, "General, how long will this battle last?"

"I don't know, Cao Cao is seriously ill. If he can be delayed until he dies, the battle will be much easier, and so many people won't have to die in vain." Zhang Yu said after taking another bite.

The old man said: "Yes, what a good baby, it would be a pity if he died on the battlefield."

Zhang Yu deliberately revealed some unimportant news.

Zhang Yu turned around and went back, and then ordered some troops to train outside.
