The reason why Cao Cao did this was because the intelligence information surprised him so much that he didn't think of it at all.
Cao Cao hastily called together more than a dozen generals and several counsellors.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Zhang Yu burst into our rear, and the target is Xu Du. What do you suggest?" Cao Cao will tell them the truth.
XiahouDun gave a voice, and then said: "Meng De, don't be afraid at all. He only has 50000 cavalry, but can't take Xuchang down. Give me tens of thousands of troops and horses, and I'll gather the troops and horses along the road and block his way."
"Yes, Meng De, let Zhang Yu never come back." Xia Houyuan also said.
Cao Hong was also angry, but he said in a loud voice: "Meng De, Zhang Yu is too arrogant, 50000 cavalry dare to go deep, we blocked his way, see what he can do."
Xu Chu is also eager to try, and then said: "Lord, I heard that Dianwei under Zhang Yu's tent is very powerful, which makes Gu Zhi evil. When there is a chance, his subordinates will fight with him."
People are very angry, their nest was attacked, the other side is so unscrupulous.
But Cheng Yu is not so optimistic, he slowly said: "Lord, generals, this sudden outbreak of Yuan Shu, must know that Zhang Yu burst into our rear, and even cooperate with Zhang Yu."
"Under such circumstances, it is obviously very difficult for us to win Shouchun, and the loss will be huge. Once Yuan Shao also knows the news, I'm afraid there will be some action. "
"In the end, we must not underestimate Zhang Yu. He is brave and lawless, but we have to say that he is very talented. If he dares to do so, he must have something to rely on."
Cheng Yu finished, and everyone was silent.
Cao Cao was in great pain. Although he had captured many cities and destroyed many enemies since he went out to fight.
But he lost nearly 100000 troops.
He lost so much that he didn't get anything.
"Hu ~" Cao Cao breathed heavily. It's time for him to make a decision.
"Prepare tonight, and withdraw at dawn tomorrow."
With that, Cao Cao's strength seemed to be drained.
I lost a lot of money this time.
After Cao Cao gave the order, the generals naturally prepared for it.
On the other side, Zhang Yu didn't attack the city, just to threaten it, very fast.
In three days, he has been not far away from Xuchang.
Along the way, Zhang Yu captured three small counties and supplied them with food and grass. The rest were all threats and arrogance.
This is coming to Xuchang. Zhang Yu asks the soldiers to have a good rest.
People in Xuchang city had received the news for a long time, and they were in a mess at this time.
"Mr. Cao ang, the prime minister is not here. You have to take charge of the overall situation." Xun you said to Cao ang.
Cao ang was twenty years old and had grown up. Cao Cao also attached great importance to him. At this time, Xun you asked him to take on a great responsibility.
"Well, if my father is not here, I'll take the place of him in Xudu, but you still have to decide big and small things."
There must always be someone to take charge of the overall situation. Cao ang is the most suitable person at this time.
But today, Cao Cao is just at the height of the sun, and Cao ang dare not have the idea of replacing him.
Xuchang was in chaos because Cao Cao had no plans when he left.
Cao Cao had no idea how serious the problem would be.
However, after Cao ang intervened with Xun Yu and others, it soon subsided.
Zhang Yu is close to Xuchang. The city of Xuchang is preparing for war. At the same time, some cities around him are also struggling to decide whether to help Xuchang or not.
And Zhang Yu they rest all night, after arriving, Zhang Yu looks at the city head of Xuchang, giggles for a while, and then orders to have a meal and rest.
An hour and a half later, the army formed up again and approached the city.
"I'm Zhangyu, the Bohai king of the Great Han Dynasty. Listen to the people in the city, open the gate quickly." Zhang Yu shouts.
People in the city are very strange. They naturally know that Zhang Yu is the prince of the Great Han.
"Zhang Yu, you are rebellious. Your Majesty gave you the surname of Liu CAI and made you the king of Bohai. You won't change your surname after you took the title of the king of Bohai." Xun you asked Cao ang to shout.
Zhang Yu dug his ears and said, "Your Majesty made me the king of Bohai Sea. I've got it, but your majesty didn't give me the surname Liu. I'm still Zhang."
"Nonsense. Everyone knows that emperor Gaozu has made a rule that he can't be king unless his surname is Liu. Otherwise, the whole world will fight against him." Cao ang said aloud.
"Not really." Zhang Yu said with certainty: "Your Majesty is in the city. I don't believe you can let your majesty come out to confront me."
Cao Ang's face turned red with anger when people vomited blood.
Xun you closed his eyes and thought, why can Zhang Yu be so shameless.
It's shameless enough to let Liu Xie confront him. It's thanks to Zhang Yu.
Liu Xie is the emperor. When he comes out to confront Zhang Yu, he has no dignity.
What's more, Zhang Yu even asked Liu Xie to go out of the city to confront him. It's impossible to think about it. Even if Zhang Yu wants to go into the city to confront Liu Xie, they can't agree.
The majesty of the royal family should be maintained.
But the problem is, if you don't confront Zhang Yu, isn't it an admission that you didn't give your surname Liu.
"Zhang Yu, you are so rude. If you dare to ask your majesty to confront you, I will immediately ask your majesty to cut off your throne and take you down for questioning." Xun Yu couldn't help saying it himself.
"Before your Majesty's punishment, you are all rebellious. When you see that our king did not go out of the city to meet you, you dare to harbor anti thieves. If you don't teach Liu Bei today, our king will wash Xu Chang with blood." Zhang Yu said.
"There are no anti thieves in the city. If you don't retreat quickly, you can't afford to disturb your majesty." Cao ang said in a loud voice.
"Who is the answer from the city?" Zhang Yu wondered how a young man in the city could talk to himself.
"I'm Cao ang." Cao ang replied.
Zhang Yu looked at him carefully, the son that Cao Cao relied on most, but he was killed by Cao Cao early.
"I don't know what official position you are. If you dare to talk to me like this, I'm the king of the Han Dynasty. What qualifications do you have to talk to me? Your Lao Tzu Cao Cao must dismount and salute me when he sees me." Zhang Yu said.
Cao Ang's face turned red again, speechless.
In terms of power, the identity of Cao ang in the city is equal to that of Zhang Yunneng. In the absence of Cao Cao, his eldest son is naturally the most noble.
But when it comes to official positions, Cao ang is far from perfect.
"Zhang Yu, you can't afford to disturb your majesty if you don't retreat quickly." Xun you saw that Cao ang was going to be surrounded by Zhang Yu, so he said something to resolve it.
Zhang Yu rode back and forth for a while and then said, "officials in more than ten cities along the road have covered up Liu Bei and other anti thieves. It seems that you are also stubborn. You are also the son of Cao Cao's family. Whether Cao Cao instigated you or not, Cao Cao didn't do his best to fight against Yuan Shu. Now he has covered up Liu Bei and others. It seems that Cao Cao has a rebellious intention."
"I think your majesty has been under house arrest for a long time. As a great Han prince, I must call on the whole world to fight against Cao Cao."
