Cao Ren stood aside, frowning. Because Zhang's words are completely stimulating Liu Bei and making him lose his mind. So Cao Ren quickly said: "Duke Chu, this is Zhang Yan's intention, because we are stuck in Xiangcheng County, so Zhang Yan does it intentionally. He does everything in order to break Xiangcheng County."
"I know!"
Liu Bei is biting his teeth, but his heart is still very remorseful.
He's responsible for everything.
He thinks it's all his fault.
Liu Bei looked at Cao Ren and said, "even if you know it, you may not be able to suppress your anger. General Cao Ren, not only my second younger brother died in the battlefield, but also the state of Chu was occupied. If it were you, could you hold it back? "
Cao Ren sighed.
If it were him, he would not be able to hold back.
Zhang Yan continued: "Liu Bei, now Pingyu county has fallen, along with your women. Now, are you willing to look at them, helpless? If you surrender now, you can guarantee their safety. "
Liu Bei gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang jaw, you and I are at odds."
Even though his family members were captured, when he thought of the ending of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, he couldn't keep calm in his heart. He couldn't calm down and let him surrender. That's impossible.
When he saw this, he did not hesitate.
He knows it's useless to talk too much.
With a wave of his hand, the soldiers under his command launched a direct attack. Under his command are the regular army and the flying Qiang army, both of which are elite. When Liu Bei's forces were destroyed, Zhang Ya went all out to attack.
However, Cao Renshan was good at guarding, and he kept every drop of water for a while. Even if Zhang chin tried his best to attack, he could not break Xiangcheng County, but could only form a stalemate.
Rao is so, Zhang jaw is also a strong attack.
When Zhang Ya attacked Xiangcheng County constantly, the news sent by Zhang Ya had been sent to Puyang County.
During this period, Zhang Xiu has been stationed in Puyang County.
Cao Cao camped outside the city and attacked Puyang County several times, but in the end, he failed to attack Puyang County.
As a result, Cao Cao was unable to break through.
Although Zhang Xiu is a lonely soldier in Puyang, in fact, she is relaxed and comfortable, and doesn't feel anything at all. Because the fierce tiger army under his command was stationed in Puyang County, which was as immovable as a mountain and did not give Cao Cao the slightest chance.
Inside the tower, in the barracks.
When Zhang Xiuzheng was inspecting the soldiers' drill, Wang Yue came to Zhang Xiu in a hurry and reported: "Your Highness, there is news from Zhang Yan. It should be extremely important to mark it as urgent."
Zhang Xiu took the letter and opened it for quick reading. When Zhang Xiu finished reading, she couldn't help laughing, and her face was full of joy.
Wang Yue inquired: "Your Highness, but Zhang Yan and Huang Zhong have won."
"Yes," said Zhang Xiu
After that, he turned and went up to the tower. When he got back to the tower, Zhang Xiu called Gan Ning, Li Ru and Zhang song, looked at several people, and said, "just got the news from Zhang Ya, Ma Chao killed Guan Yu in Xiangcheng County. Now the army led by Huang Zhong has captured Pingyu county and Runan County. "
As she spoke, Zhang Xiu beamed with a smile and said, "we have won in Yingchuan county and Runan County. It can be said that we have won this battle with Cao Cao in the general direction. "
Li Ru said with a smile: "Your Highness, whether Zhang Yan or Huang Zhong, each has won. It's time for us to take action. "
"In particular, it was reported yesterday that the elite of Langya camp under Chen Dao had been transferred to Puyang County. Now the military camp in dangyin county is just an empty shelf, but Yuan Shao does not dare to act rashly. "
"Not only that, Zhang Yan's Heishan army, who left Chang'an with his highness before, also quietly lurked at the border of Dongjun. In addition, there is Zhao Yun's white horse Yicong. "
"Our total strength in this war is no less than Cao Cao."
Li Ru said: "during this period, Cao Cao attacked Puyang County several times, causing huge losses. Today, Cao Cao's military strength is less than 70000. We can defeat Cao Cao by fighting against him. "
"It's time to prepare for a decisive battle," Zhang Xiu said, "but this decisive battle needs to be fully guided to lead Cao Cao to the place where we ambush him. Only in this way can we defeat Cao Cao in one go. If the army of Zhang Yan, Zhao Yun and Chen Dao were allowed to kill us directly, Cao Cao would surely shrink when he saw that we were powerful. "
Li Ru said: "Your Highness is wise!"
Zhang Xiu took out the map, looked at it carefully, quickly selected the final location of the ambush, and arranged for people to leave Puyang County quickly to deliver a message to inform Chen Dao, Zhang Yan and others to go to the location of the ambush.
After arranging everything, Zhang Xiu waited quietly.
In less than two days, news came back that Chen Dao, Zhang Yan and others were in place and ready to fight at any time.
Everything is ready.
But for Zhang Xiu, there is still a lack of east wind, that is, Cao Cao took the initiative to attack.While Zhang Xiu was waiting, a letter was sent to Cao Cao's desk in Cao's camp. When Cao Cao saw the contents of the letter, his face was livid and his eyes were gloomy. Compared with Zhang Xiu's joy, Cao Cao is full of anger.
Lost again!
The battle of Yingchuan county was defeated again!
Although Cao Ren's army was not defeated from beginning to end, for Cao Cao, the defeat of Liu Bei, the killing of Guan Yu, and even the fall of Runan County were regarded as defeat by Cao Cao.
The overall situation is extremely unfavorable.
Although Cao Cao wanted to annex Liu Bei and wipe out Liu Bei in his heart, Liu Bei was defeated by Zhang Xiu's people, and Runan fell into Zhang Xiu's hands, which Cao Cao did not want.
Cao Cao immediately arranged for people to send someone to call Guo Jia and Xun you. He told us about Liu Bei's defeat and Guan Yu's killing. Finally, he said, "although Cao Ren is in Xiangcheng County, he still keeps his guard. Overall, the situation is extremely bad. "
"When Huang Zhong's army completely sweeps Runan County and goes north to join Zhang Ya, Cao Ren will not be able to keep it."
"Zhang Xiu is really cunning."
"Everyone thinks that his army is concentrated in Nanyang County to attack us. But all of a sudden, Huang Zhong quietly went to Jiangxia County, and from Jiangxia to Runan County, he captured Pingyu county and took Liu Bei's home. "
Cao Cao said: "this step of Zhang Xiu is extremely poisonous."
Guo Jia said: "the way to use military force is to take it by surprise. It's not easy for Zhang Xiu to use military force. However, we can't manage the war between Yingchuan county and Runan County for the time being. In the current situation, what we need to do is to solve Zhang Xiu first. Only by destroying Zhang Xiu can we reverse the defeat and keep the whole game alive. "
"It is!"
Xun you nodded his head and said, "according to our humble position, we must speed up our attack on Puyang County. Even if Puyang County is difficult to attack, it has to go all out to attack. As time goes on, the situation in Yingchuan county will get worse again. I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with it. "
Cao Cao said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu is guarding Puyang County. It's like a tortoise shell. It's helpless. But we have nothing to do with him. The excavation of tunnels and even the construction of fortifications and other measures have been used, but to no avail. "
Xun you said, "no matter what, we have to attack again."
Cao Cao rubbed his feet, brushed his sleeves, and said, "it's better to hit the sun than to choose the right day. That's all. Attack Puyang again today. I don't believe it. I still have more than 70000 elite soldiers under my command. I can't take a Puyang County. "
When Cao ordered the soldiers to gather, they called out.
With the assembly of the army under his command, Cao Cao once again led the army to Puyang County.
