A large army was at the foot of the city and trapped Xinye city.
What's more, the besieged are not surrounded by three, but surrounded by four.
Liu Xiu, Jia Xu, Pang Tong and others came to the city. Liu Xiu looked at the solid Xinye city with a smile on his lips. Xinye City, under the leadership of Cao Ren, has been restored for several times, and the city wall is not built with rammed earth, but with big Bluestone. It is a real strong city.
If it is rammed earth City, as long as the catapult and crossbow fire, enough to destroy the wall.
However, the lapis lazuli is hard, and the catapult and crossbow have little effect.
Wei Yan came to Liu Xiu and said: "Your Highness, we are surrounded by all sides, which completely blocked Cao Cao's retreat. In this way, won't it strengthen the other party's mind of resistance and fail to disintegrate the other party's morale? "
Liu Xiu laughed and said, "the killing of Cao Ren, the suicide of Xia Houdun, and even the fainting of Cao Cao have all hit Cao Jun's confidence. Today's Cao army has long been swaying. Under such circumstances, it doesn't matter whether one is short of three. And the most important thing is that we have surrounded xinyecheng, and we have a most important purpose
"What's the purpose?"
Wei Yan's eyes showed a trace of incomprehension.
"Surround and help!"
Liu Xiu's eyes twinkled with light, and he spoke loudly.
Help around!
Besiege Cao Cao, and then use Cao Cao to attract reinforcements, continue to rob and kill Cao who came to support.
This is the next plan Liu Xiu discussed with Jia Xu and Pang Tong.
After hearing this, Wei Yan said: "Your Highness is wise!"
Liu Xiu said with a smile, "go and make arrangements for the soldiers to guard all sides. Then, properly solve the captured Cao soldiers. These soldiers of the Cao army are all our chess pieces. They can attack Cao Cao favorably. "
"The end will understand!"
Wei Yan should be boxing, then turned down to arrange.
"Deng Zhan!"
Liu xiuphene said.
Deng Zhan came to Liu Xiu and said, "Your Highness!"
Liu Xiu said: "immediately spread the news that Cao Ren and Xia Houdun were killed, Cao Cao fainted, and Cao's army was defeated and trapped. The battlefields of Jiangdong, Northern Wei and Chang'an must be known. "
"No!"
Deng Zhan had a smile on his face and looked forward to it.
Now Liu Xiu has taken the initiative and is about to dominate the world.
Deng Zhan was very excited to follow Liu Xiu.
After Deng Zhan left, Liu Xiu made another inspection tour, and then took Jia Xu, Pang Tong and others back to the camp.
Inside the city, the prefect's residence.
Cao Cao was lying on his bed with a haggard face. Under the doctor's treatment, Cao Cao has recovered, but his headache is more serious. As a result, Cao Cao is lying on the bed with a splitting headache.
Xun you, Cheng Yu, man Chong and others stood beside the bed, their faces full of worry.
Cao Cao suppressed the pain and asked in a hoarse voice, "what's the situation of the war?"
Xun you said helplessly: "king of Wei, most of our troops lost in this battle, and the soldiers who escaped were lax. Today, only the tiger and leopard riders under Xu Chu's command have combat power. Besides, Li Dian died when he resisted the attack of Liu Xiu's army. "
"Ah
Cao Cao exclaimed in surprise, opened his eyes and clenched his fist.
The eyes are full of pain.
Li Dian is also a valiant general under his command. He is an invincible general on the battlefield. But Cao Cao never thought that after the death of Cao Ren and Xia Houdun, Li Dian also died.
"Ah, ah..."
Cao Cao's head, pain to burst general.
He tugged at the sheet with both hands, and the beaded sweat on his forehead penetrated out constantly.
Cao Cao's heart is full of anger and anxiety.
Cao Cao never tried to lose three generals in a row.
Xun you was startled and quickly let the doctor in, but after the doctor's diagnosis and treatment, he was helpless. There was no solution, so he could only watch helplessly.
Cheng Yu, man Chong and others all look worried.
After a long time, Cao Cao recovered a lot.
He struggled to do it, his back against the wall, his breath was a little short, his eyes were bloodshot, and his face was tired. Headache is his old problem, which greatly affects his health.
Cao Cao said, "what's the war like now?"
Xun you continued: "report back to the king of Wei, Liu Xiu surrounded Xinye city on all sides."
"All around?"
Cao Cao's eyes narrowed and his face looked puzzled.
Immediately, Cao Cao said, "what do you think Liu Xiu's intention of encircling Xinye city is?"
Xun you said: "after discussion, we all agreed that Liu Xiu was going to adopt the strategy of encircling and supporting. Liu Xiu will certainly release the news first and shake our rear area. Then, when our reinforcements come to the rescue, they will continue to block the rescue team. "Cao Cao said with emotion: "Liu Xiu is cunning!"
For Liu Xiu, Cao Cao's heart, suddenly rose to make the sense of powerlessness.
This battle is too weak.
Cao Cao's brow was wrinkled again, and his headache was like a tidal wave, which made him extremely uncomfortable.
But now, Cao Cao can only bear it.
Cao Cao asked, "do you think there are any strategies to crack it now?"
"Hard!"
Xun you shook his head and said: "after discussion, we all agreed that the most appropriate way now is to escort the king of Wei away from Xinye by tiger and leopard, so as to ensure the safety of the king of Wei. As for the defeat of this war, there is no way out. "
Escape?
Cao Cao was thinking, and his eyes were even more unwilling.
Cao Cao fought against Liu Xiu this time. He was confident that the state of Wei had recuperated for two years and was powerful. He wanted to work hard to solve Liu Xiu's influence in Jingzhou. He even beat Liu Xiu back to Yizhou and killed him. But unexpectedly, instead, he was in prison and completely surrounded by Liu Xiu.
Cao Cao shook his head and said, "if we can't withdraw, we will be heavily encircled and blocked by Liu Xiu. Whether we can escape or not is another matter. Now we have to find another way
Xun you said, "what will the king of Wei do?"
Cheng Yu worried that Cao Cao would go to extremes and said, "king of Wei, you have to leave green hills here. You don't have to worry about firewood mountains. As long as you escape this time, you are sitting in the northern states and powerful. You can pull up a team to fight against Liu Xiu again. Therefore, the king of Wei did not have to abandon himself. "
Cao Cao laughed and said, "don't worry, I won't abandon myself. But now, I'm not willing to fail, so I can't run away
After a pause, Cao Cao asked, "Duke Zhong De, does Sun Quan have any action?"
Cheng Yu said: "Sun Quan promised to send troops, but so far, there is no news about Sun Quan. At present, Sun Quan is still on the sidelines. "
"Well, Sun Quan always wants to fish in troubled waters."
Cao Cao's eyes showed a look of disdain.
Cao Cao's extreme intention is to despise sun Shuiquan. If Sun Quan can unite with him to attack Liu Xiu, at least Liu Xiu will not be so arrogant.
Now that Liu Xiu has won such a victory, Sun Quan is also under great pressure.
Even Sun Quan did not dare to move.
Cao Cao looked at the crowd and said, "it's not the style of the king to lead the troops to retreat and break through the encirclement. After you go down, those who should manage the army well should manage the army well, those who should stabilize the morale and public opinion of the army should stabilize the morale and public opinion of the army, and then all of you should think about it and come up with solutions. In this war, we must never forget it. "
"No!"
The crowd replied with a solemn expression on their faces.
Every face had worried look. At this point, it was not easy to fight Liu Xiu again.
Cheng Yu's eyes narrowed, and her eyes showed a look of thinking.
As an old minister of Cao Cao, Cheng Yu has a very high position, but when he thinks of what he wants to say, he can't make up his mind for a moment, and he doesn't know what to do.
After thinking about it, Cheng Yu took a deep breath and decided to say it.
Cheng Yu said: "the king of Wei, there is a word in his humble position. I don't know when to say it."
Cao Cao gave a miserable smile and said, "what's the taboo when I'm here? If you have anything to say, just say it directly, and don't have taboos. "
Hearing the speech, Cheng Yu nodded heavily.
Immediately, Cheng Yu stepped back two steps, and then knelt down with his robe.
People look at Cheng Yu, and they don't understand.
Cao Cao was also startled and said, "what are you doing, Mr. Zhongde? That's why. "
Cheng Yu said: "the matter that the old minister said is of great importance. It's even more rebellious, so he pleaded guilty in advance." After a pause, Cheng Yu said: "the king of Wei is now in prison, and he is not willing to break through and return to Yecheng. Then, I suggest that the king of Wei be invited to appoint his son, and then let a team of tigers and leopards ride back to Yecheng to determine the position of their successors, so as to ensure that the state of Wei is safe. "
Brush!
When they heard the speech, their faces became more cautious.
What Cheng Yu mentioned is indeed a major event. At this time, it should be put on the agenda. Otherwise, once Cao Cao had an accident, the state of Wei would be in chaos if there was no heir to the throne.
