Chapter 841
On the way to retreat, the more Cao Cao thought about it, the more something went wrong!

With Wu Shun's temperament, how could he not attack them with a large number of cavalry?
Moreover, a large part of their army has invaded the city, and the soldiers and horses outside the city are not enough for the Azure Dragon Army to kill.

"Gongjin, did you find anything wrong?" Cao Cao asked.

With Zhou Yu's IQ, Cao Cao believed that Zhou Yu must have discovered something too.

"King Lu, the Wuling army is weird. Perhaps Wu Shun doesn't have that many troops at all, and he just frightened us."

Zhou Yu said.

The Wuling army is famous for its fierce attacks, and there is no reason why they can remain indifferent when they see themselves attacking the city.

"Gong Jin is right. Even if the third son of the Yuan family investigates again, it will take a few days. After this calculation, Wu Shun rushed here after the battle in Yecheng. He galloped all the way, and the cavalry could reach here. It is already at the end of its strength. , He didn’t dare to attack just now, and he didn’t even dare to get too close to us! Alas, the measures are a good opportunity!” Cao Cao sighed.

"Don't miss this opportunity, never miss it again!" Now that our coalition forces have withdrawn, it will be difficult to fight in again.

Wu Shun is here, and the soldiers of Wuling are in a state of excitement. If Cao Cha and Zhou Yu choose to fight again, they will have no advantage.

When the Xuanwu Army and the Canglang Army learned that Wu Shun had come in person, they were in full condition, and their exhaustion turned into motivation!
Repairing the city wall, transporting supplies, and collecting robes, all work is proceeding in an orderly manner.

Wu Shun dozed off for a long time, and finally woke up leisurely.

"Cao Cao and Zhou Yu ran away?"

This was the first thing I asked when I woke up.

"Your Majesty, Cao Cao already started to evacuate when he saw the formation of the Azure Dragon Army!" Qu A replied.

"Oh, let's go to town!"

Now that the enemy army has retreated, of course Wu Shun will enter the city and take a good rest.

……

The State Shepherd's Mansion has been cleaned up. When Wu Shun came here, he said that Wenpin was a waste of manpower.

But the clean and fresh environment can really give people a comfortable feeling.

"The last general was not good at defending the city, and almost lost the whole Xuzhou, please punish the king!"

Wu Shun sat down, and Wenpin came out and said.

With a sincere face, there is absolutely no intention of artificiality.

"Please punish the king!"

Shi Zhongyu, Sha Moke, and Guan Hai also came out to fight with Wenpin.

The expression is very serious!

Seeing the serious looks of these four people, Wu Shun wanted to laugh, but if he did, he was afraid that the four would be unhappy, so he suppressed it.

"The four generals dragged Cao Cao and Zhou Yu to Xuzhou, and my main force was able to capture Hebei. The four are indispensable. Not only are they innocent, but they have made meritorious deeds. After repelling the Sun-Cao coalition forces, they will be rewarded together!"

Wu Shun walked up to the four of them and helped them up one by one.

The Xuzhou battlefield completely dragged down the power of Cao Cao and Sun Quan, allowing Wu Shun to concentrate on attacking Hebei.

I have to say that Wenpin and others played a huge role!
If the Xuanwu Army and the Canglang Army hadn't held Cao Cao and Zhou Yu back, Wu Shun would have had to devote more energy to thinking about how to prepare for a possible surprise attack.

Consolidating the rear of the army led to a great victory in Hebei, not to mention that Xuzhou City was not lost, even if it was lost, Wu Shun would not blame it!

When Wu Shun said this, the four of them felt embarrassed.They lost soldiers and generals in Xuzhou, and almost lost Xuzhou. How could they have made great achievements?

"Four generals, your Majesty says you are innocent, so hurry up and join the ranks!"

Wei Yan laughed.

After some rest, Wei Yan's condition has improved a lot, at least those eyes are no longer so red

After the four entered the line, Wu Shun said again: "Cao Cao and Zhou Yu must have discovered the reality of our army. They may send people to attack at night tonight. Before it is dark, all the soldiers who need to rest should go to rest. I can't sleep anymore."

"Why is Your Majesty so sure?"

Wenpin asked.

He didn't think that the enemy might attack the city at night.Reinforcements came from Xuzhou City, the enemy should be very cautious.

"Haha, you don't know, but I have Kong Ming's kit! So whatever arrangements are made, you can do it." Wu Shun said.

Zhuge Liang sent this kit to Wu Shun through the grain transportation team, and it could only be opened when he arrived in Xuzhou.

According to Zhuge Liang's tricks, Wu Shun had already successfully frightened Cao Cao and Zhou Yu away, so according to the arrangement for the night, Wu Shun believed that these two unlucky guys would probably come.

How could Cao Cao and Zhou Yu turn a blind eye to all kinds of irrationality during the day?
As night came, Xuzhou City was brightly lit, and there were soldiers running back and forth in the city to deliver combat supplies. On the city wall, there were five posts, one post and ten steps, one sentry post, and they looked like they were heavily guarded.

In a dark place, Zhou Yu bowed his back and carefully observed the Wuling soldiers on the city wall.

"Hmph, I want to use the same move twice! Wu Shun, you underestimate the world!"

Not long after, the sentry posts on the city wall were yawning and their bodies were shaking.This made Zhou Yu more certain that Wu Shun wanted to use this method to scare them off again.

"Governor, the soldiers are ready."

A personal guard came over to report.

"Wait, attack when they are most troubled!" Zhou Yu said.

"Yes!"

The soldiers of Wu State hid all the swords that were exposed.

Zhou Yu was waiting for the best opportunity to attack, while Wu Shun was waiting for Cao Cao and Zhou Yu to attack.He has already prepared a big gift to give them.

"Qu'a, go and check to see if the arrangement of the Xuanwu Army is properly arranged." Wu Shun ordered.

"Yes, the last general will go here!"

In fact, Qu A had already gone there twice, but the matter was so important that Wu Shun ordered him to go to check again immediately.

If it is not arranged well, it is likely to leave opportunities for the enemy!

At that time, the patrol team above Xuzhou City moved more frequently, but Zhou Yu in the dark became more and more excited, and the time was coming.

"Governor Zhou, when will we attack?"

General Xu Chu of the State of Lu touched Zhou Yu and asked Zhou Yu.

"General Xu, we can attack soon!" Zhou Yu said.

As for when he could attack, he did not say.In short, Xu Chu will listen to him tonight!
At three o'clock, the patrol team on the city wall left, and Zhou Yu stepped out from the shadows.

"on!"

He made a gesture, and two hundred men in black ran out behind him, touching the city wall of Xuzhou.

Taking advantage of no one, they threw their flying claws and quickly climbed up.

A quarter of an hour later, several groups of people had already gone up the Xuzhou city wall, but the strange thing was that the patrol team hadn't come yet.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

Suddenly someone in the city yelled, and the city was suddenly full of gongs and drums, shouting and killing everywhere!
"Rush up!" Zhou Yu ordered.

Now that it has been discovered, it will attack directly. The hundreds of people who have climbed up just now have also stood in a large space.

After contact, Wu soldiers felt that tonight's Wuling army was weak, as if they were not full, and had no strength at all.

They began to believe what Zhou Yu told them before they set off.

The Wuling army is already at the end of its strength, but You Ziqiang is holding on.

Soon, Xu Chu also led Lu soldiers to the top of the city. A long section of the city wall was directly occupied by Zhou Yu and Xu Chu.

blah blah blah...

In the faint light of the fire, a series of sparks appeared...

"No, it's gunpowder!"

Smelling the pungent smell of gunpowder smoke, Zhou Yu shouted.
