I heard that this expedited document came from Yecheng, and when I looked at Yuan Shao's face getting ugly, the sixth sense made Xu You suddenly have an ominous premonition.

"Cough cough... lord, what did Shen Zhengnan say in the letter?" Xu You plucked up the courage to cough and asked carefully.

"What did you say?"

Yuan Shao suddenly roared like a lion, and the expression on his face seemed like a beast that was about to choose a person to eat, which scared all the civil and military staff present. They had never seen their lord so angry.

"You can see it yourself!"

Yuan Shao gasped loudly, his chest fluctuated violently due to anger, and he put the letter in his hand on Xu You's face.

Xu You has been with Yuan Shao for more than ten years, and when he was young, they were close friends. This is the first time Yuan Shao got angry with him in front of everyone. Xu You's heart seemed to sink to the bottom of the sea.

He bent down in panic, stretched out his palm tremblingly, held the letter in his hand, and read it word by word. Every time he read the next word, Xu You's face looked ugly...

"Lord, please spare me, what Shen Zhengnan said is untrue!"

Faced with the impeachment with severe words from Shen Pei, Xu You could no longer hold on when he saw it halfway. He knelt on the ground with a "thump" and defended him: "You are wronged, the lord must not listen to Zheng Nan's words. It must be that he got the matter wrong!"

Yuan Shao's eyes were cold and he snorted coldly, "Xu You, do you still dare to argue? I trust you so much and hand over all the money, food and supplies in Jizhou to you, but you stole it and robbed it. I am really disappointed that I have embezzled so much money and property! The embezzled money and property have been seized. Your son Xu Ning has also pleaded guilty. Do you still have to deny it?"

After hearing Yuan Shao's words, all the civil and military staff on both sides were shocked and immediately whispered to each other.

Xu You has a prominent position in the Yuan group, second only to Shen Pei, Ju Su and Feng Ji among civil officials. Because he is an old friend of Yuan Shao, he is entrusted with the important task of taking charge of money and food. His power is prominent and his status is glorious. Unexpectedly, he actually embezzled. This is really shocking news!

"The lord, lord, must be done by the son Xu Ning, and you know everything. The lord's lord is probably because he can't stand the torture of Shen Zhengnan, so he is scolded. Please lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lor

At this point, Xu You could only pour dirty water on his son, wash himself white, and then try to save his family. Otherwise, the Xu family would have to wait for the ashes to be destroyed.

The feeling of being betrayed by someone you trust is very unpleasant. Yuan Shao's face turned pale and he didn't want to look at Xu You more, so he ordered: "Left and right, push Xu You down and behead him to serve as a warning to You!"

When Xu You heard this, he collapsed on the ground and couldn't say a word.

Chen Lin and Xu You had a close personal relationship. They hurriedly stepped out and pleaded for Xu You and said, "The lord has temporarily stopped the thunderous anger. What Xu Ziyuan said may not be false. It may be his bad boy who embezzled money while Ziyuan is not at home. He asked the lord to keep someone under the knife. When he returned to Ye County and found out the whole story, it would not be too late to deal with it!"

Xun Chen and Xu You are both from Yingchuan, and they also pleaded out now: "Please calm down. Our army is confronting Cao's army and killing officials. It is not too late to make a decision after defeating Cao's army and finding out the whole story!"

Yuan Shao picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, suppressing the anger in his heart, thinking that Chen Lin and Xun Chen's words made sense. If he killed a heavyweight like Xu You in the last battle, rumors would inevitably arise in the army, causing unnecessary consequences. He would rather settle the score with him after returning to Yecheng!

"Get out!" Yuan Shao angrily splashed the tea leaves in his hand on Xu You, "I don't want to see you again, so I'll get out of the big tent, and settle the score with you after returning to Ye County!"

"Thank you for your unkindness!"

Xu You didn't care to wipe the tea stains on his body, and jumped out of Yuan Shao's tent with a terrified look. He returned to his tent with fear, knelt in front of the table, his eyebrows twisted into a rope, and he thought hard about ways to get rid of his crime.

"Yuan Benchu ​​is narrow-minded and will definitely revenge his grudges. Shen Pei is a person who refuses to give up easily. My Xu family is afraid that this time I will be doomed!" Xu You looked up at the white tent above his head, muttering to himself in his heart.

You said you, Yuan Shao, are really not good enough. The old guy who grew up together, you are so powerful. I, Xu You, run away for you, can't you let me get some money for your children? As for such a small matter? If I had known this, I would have chosen Meng De at the beginning. I really regretted getting on your pirate ship!

"Only in the current plan, there is only one way left. Only by helping Meng De defeat Yuan Shao, a petty guy, and the soldiers of Ye County, can my family be saved..." Xu You pinched his jaw and said to himself in his heart, "Even if he can't save his monks, he can at least save my life. Otherwise, I'm afraid that our Xu family will all have the heads to the ground. As long as I, Xu You, are still alive, our Xu family will have hope of making a comeback!"

Making up his mind, Xu You abandoned his bag, quietly came to the stable, took his mount, turned over to the horse, and headed straight for the village gate behind him.

"Oh... is it Mr. Xu? Where are you going?"

The goalkeeper team did not know what was happening in the big tent, so he respectfully asked Xu You, who was identifiably accused Xu You.

Xu You put away his panic as if he was a distraught dog, showed his usual high expression, coughed, and pointed the horse whip in his hand to Zhang He's camp five miles south of the camp, "The lord asked me to inspect Zhang He's camp!"

"So that's it, why don't the adults bring their entourage?"

The team leader asked with concern and was unprepared. He would not have thought that such a heavyweight figure was actually ready to surrender to Cao Cao at this moment.

Xu You said impatiently: "I went to Zhang He's camp to check if anyone violated military discipline, drank and caused trouble, and brought his entourage to the front and back. Can I catch soldiers who violated the discipline?"

"Yes, yes, what the adults said was very right, but the villain was talking too much!"

The team leader looked nervous and terrified, opened the gate of the village and sent Xu Yougong out of the camp.

"Huh...this head is finally saved, thank God!"

After Xu You left Yuan Shao's camp, he let out a long breath, reached out to stroke the violently beating heart, and waved his whip hard on his mount's buttocks, "Hold..."

The gray horse raised its four hooves, rolled up a scattered dust, and gradually headed south. It soon passed Zhang He's military camp and disappeared on the post road leading to the south...

During lunch, Yuan Shao's aides found out that Xu You was missing, and the group of people were immediately in an uproar.

After checking Xu You's tent, Feng Ji decisively determined that Xu You had defected to Cao Cao: "There is no small amount of Xu You's tent, but the mount is gone. Obviously he ran away alone. Shen Zhengnan was in charge of Yecheng. He probably didn't dare to go back. In most cases, he turned to Cao Cao to Nan!"

Yuan Shao fully agreed with Feng Ji's analysis.

Both people from Yingchuan, Xu You and Cao Cao knew each other earlier than him, and their personal relationship was pretty good. This time, Xu You knew that he had caused a big disaster and was most likely to go to the south to join Cao Cao.

"It's all your fault. If you hadn't been pleading, I would have cut off this man's head long ago!" Yuan Shao was anxious and angry, pointing to Chen Lin and Xun Chen, and scolded loudly.

Chen Lin and Xun Chen looked at each other, but they didn't expect Xu You would cheat her like this. She was so mute and couldn't say anything. She could only lower her head and say nothing, allowing Yuan Shao to scold her.

Seeing the tent's strategists fading away, Shen Pei was gone, Guo Tu and Xin Ping went to Qingzhou, Ju Su, Tian Feng went to Bingzhou, and Xu You went to Nantou Cao Cao; only Chen Lin, Chen Zhen, Xu Chen, Puyang Xing, Han Fan, Linghu Shao and other second-rate strategists were left in the tent, and Feng Ji suddenly felt a sense of sadness when he died of a rabbit.

The opponents who have been fighting with me openly and secretly are gradually fading away. What's the point of showing off in front of the remaining second-rate strategists? They are just chicken heads!

"Mr. Yuan, things have come to this point, and it is useless to complain. I'd better try every means to minimize the consequences of Xu You's visit to Cao!" Feng Ji sighed, looking worried about the country and the people.

With Xu You's past lessons, Yuan Shao did not dare to blame Chen Lin and Xun Chen too hard. If they ran away, they would be a good fight. They couldn't be a commander but not even a staff officer, right?

After an emergency meeting, Feng Ji believed that Xu You's biggest threat to Cao was to leak Wuchao where he was stockpiled. With Cao Cao's treacherous, he would definitely send heavy troops to attack the granary, cut off the supply of grain from the army, and disrupt the morale of his own army.

So Yuan Shao decided to send Chunyu Qiong to lead 20,000 people to the north, and the governor led his generals, Guan Yuanjin, Han Juzi, Zhao Rui and others to go north quickly to assist Su You in guarding the Wuchao granary and guarding against Cao's heavy troops to burn grain.

Just guarding Wuchao was not enough. Xu You knew the arrangement of troops and fortifications of each battalion and village. Yuan Shao ordered all the troops to quickly pull out the camps, move their geographical locations, and choose a new place to re-establish the camps to avoid Cao's army's night attack.

The soldiers moved the camp for no reason, and the soldiers needed to work and drive piles, dig trenches again, and lay traps, and the workload was heavy and tiring. This made Yuan Jun complain. When he knew that all this was caused by Xu You's enrollment in Cao, more than 100,000 soldiers greeted the women of Xu You's family next to each other, and cursed in the wilderness of Guandu.

The news that Xu You threw himself into Cao was very rumored. The news was soon captured by Yuan Mai's scout, and the fast horse reported to the other side of the Yellow River.

"Hiss... the most important moment in the Guandu Battle is finally coming!"
