King of Liao at the end of Han Dynasty

Chapter 543 Two Cao Shoushouchun

Liu Ye nodded, and said: "Well, it seems that Jiangdong's soldiers have really retreated..." But did Jiangdong's soldiers really retreat?How could it be possible?

At night, just when Liu Ye and Shi Huan thought they could sleep peacefully tonight, a sudden burst of gong sounded the two of them. An urgent sound, there must be an enemy army coming.

"What's going on!" Almost at the same time, both of them rushed out of the room, their clothes were disheveled, and they shouted while arranging their clothes, "What happened in the city?"

"General!" The matter quickly arrived in front of Shi Huan, and he said anxiously: "General, the Jiangdong army has gone and returned, attacked the city at night, and our army was unable to guard against it. Now the south gate has been knocked down, and the Jiangdong army has entered the city." !"

And at this time, Liu Ye dared to come over and shouted to Shi Huan: "General, it must be Jiangdong soldiers and horses who have entered the city. General, hurry up and organize soldiers and horses to deal with Jiangdong army in the city. I will go and burn the food and supplies. Can't leave it to Zhou Yu's child!"

"Hey! It's been tricked!" Shi Huan sighed loudly: "Military division, hurry up, I will take you out of the city right now!"

Liu Ye immediately said: "Hey... General, Zhou Lang has already prepared to go out of the city, and he must have ambushed the army to wait for you and me. How can he rush out of the city!"

Shi Huan said sadly: "Are you going to wait to die in the city?"

Liu Ye immediately shouted angrily: "Could it be that the general is afraid of death?"

Shi Huan immediately turned his face straight, and shouted: "Military advisers and scholars are not afraid of death. As a general, you should die in battle, so why not be afraid? The old lord and the lord have treated me with great kindness, and I will repay you with death! I’m just regretting that I didn’t deserve it, and I’m ashamed of being so kind to the lord!” But what can you do if you regret it, Liu Ye immediately said: “General, I admire you, but general, now is not the time to regret, even if we die , and can’t leave anything for Zhou Yu’s child, the general is going to resist Jiangdong’s army, and someone is going to burn food and supplies! Go quickly!”

Shi Huan pulled out the saber at his waist with all his strength, and shouted to the orderly beside him, "Quickly set up the army and horses in the city, and we will definitely fight that boy Zhou Lang to the end!" As he spoke, he rushed out with a group of personal guards. city.

At this moment, Zhou Yu had already led the army into the city. Of course, everything today was to trick Liu Ye and Shi Huan. Yes, of course Liu Ye's strategy was also known by Sun Quan and Zhou Yu, and it was not Zhou Yu's idea to attack Hefei at night, but Chen Deng wanted to prove his sincerity in surrender and helped Zhou Yu break Hefei, but also to win for himself. Sun Quan's trust, Sun Quan really admired Chen Deng very much, and also showed his big belly, at least to do so in front of others, continue to appoint Chen Deng as Zhonglang general, Guangling prefect, Sun Quanqiu did not commit any crimes in the Chen family, not only that, Chen The family has also opened up the business roads of Xuzhou Road and Jiangdong, and of course they can get a lot of benefits from it.

How could Zhou Yu attack Hefei at night without full preparation? Even if Shi Huan led his troops to fight hard, they would be powerless. Ye shouted.

Zhou Yu raised his hand, stopped the soldiers and horses, and laughed loudly: "Haha, Mr. Ziyang, don't come here without any problems!"

Liu Ye shouted angrily: "Huh! Jiangdong Zhou Lang really deserves his reputation, he is full of tricks!"

Zhou Yu smiled, and said slowly: "Soldiers are deceitful, and no gentleman will do it. Mr. Ziyang, this sentence, I will give it to you now!"

"Zhou Yu!" Liu Ye yelled angrily, "Don't be mad, someone has already burned all the supplies in the city, and you won't get anything!"

"You!" Zhou Yu raised his eyes and saw the flames in the east of the city. It is estimated that Liu Ye is not only going to burn the food and materials in the city, but even the whole city of Hefei!Zhou Yu immediately shouted: "The thief dares to kill you, and put out the fire immediately!"

"Promise!" The Jiangdong army roared immediately, and fought hard to kill the participating Cao army. If Liu Ye really burned the city, then what's the use of Zhou Yu's taking down Hefei this week!

After a night of continuous fighting, there were more than ten thousand Cao troops in Hefei, and none of them survived. Shi Huan and Liu Ye died in the flames of war. The literati even pulled out the swords around their waists as accessories, thinking that Jiangdong's soldiers and horses would kill them, but fortunately Zhou Yu extinguished the fire, and Sun Quan lost 6000 to [-] people. At the same price, he finally won the city of Hefei, and took advantage of the situation to directly take down several surrounding cities, and the soldiers pointed directly at Shouchun.

This is not over yet. Chen Deng led Guanglingzhong to surrender to Jiangdong. In this way, Xuzhou's gates will be wide open, and Jiangdong soldiers and horses can directly go northward and enter the hinterland of Xuzhou. Although this is according to Xun You's plan, Zhou Yu's current focus Not in Xuzhou at all, but Shouchun and Yangzhou.

The news quickly spread to Runan, and Cao Pi led the army to be stationed here. Runan Pingyu, Cao Pi's commander's tent, Cao Pi's roar came, "Ah! Jiangdong rats, how dare you do this, you are really angry Also!" It is conceivable that a 14-year-old Cao Pi can wear such a roar.

"Hey...it's a pity that Ziyang and General Shi Huan died at the hands of Jiangdong people!" Xun You was also extremely sad, and he never thought that Chen Deng would surrender.

"Chen Deng!" Cao Pi said viciously: "A certain father never treated you badly, you rebel, you betrayed me so easily! It's really unreasonable!"

Xun You hurriedly tried to persuade him, "Hey... my lord, now is not the time to get angry. Jiangdong soldiers and horses are already pointing at Shouchun, and our army is in danger!"

"Mr. Gongda!" Cao Pi yelled, his heart was full of sorrow, and he said quietly: "Sir, what should we do now, is this God wanting to destroy my Cao family?"

Seeing Cao Pi's discouraged look, Xun You straightened his face, and immediately said: "My lord, don't be discouraged. Although our army is defeated, we haven't reached the final stage. Even if there are only one city and one place left, you, my lord, will not be discouraged." Don't lose faith!"

Xun You's words seemed to be a reprimand, and Cao Pi's heart was aroused immediately. Cao Pi is too small, too small, but God has placed such a heavy courage on Cao Pi, Cao Pi has no choice, Cao Pi's eyes are red, But he himself held back his tears, stood up immediately, and said: "Sir! I will not lose confidence! Even though our army has been defeated repeatedly, I firmly believe that one day, I will definitely shock my father's great cause, my Cao family , will not die!"

"Okay!" Xun You immediately exclaimed, this is a deliberate exclamation, even if he is the same age as Cao Pi, how can he have such courage? Looking at the world, how many people are there in the past and present, Xun You immediately said : "My lord, don't worry, I must be dead to serve my lord!"

Cao Pi wiped the corners of his eyes and was about to burst into tears, and asked Xun You, "Sir, if that's the case, how about our army retreat from Xuzhou?"

Xun You immediately said: "My lord, no, Liu Biao's army is strong now. Only when Liu Biao and Li Yuanjie win or lose, our army can choose whether to withdraw. Now we should withdraw from all parts of Xuzhou and enter Linhuai. We must first defend the front line of Shouchun. As long as Liu Biao After winning, Li Yuanjie's army was defeated all the way, and Sun Quan's Jiangdong soldiers are not familiar with land warfare, so it will not last long!"

Cao Pi nodded and said: "Okay! You can order Xuzhou's herding carts and horses to rectify the soldiers and horses, and strictly guard against Xiaoguan. I don't know, sir, who will guard this Shouchun?"

"Hey..." Xun You sighed helplessly, Cao Cao had so many strong generals in the past, but now, there are dead and wounded, and there is no one who wants to find someone to guard the fortress.

"Let's come!" Suddenly there were two shouts from outside the tent, and Xun You and Cao Pi turned their heads when they heard the sound.

"My lord!" Two strong men walked in, knelt on one knee and cupped their hands.

"Zidan, Wen Lie!" Xun You exclaimed. These two are the second sons of the Cao family, and they are the same generation as Cao Pi. In terms of bravery, these two are also the generals of the Cao family, but they have fathers. The brilliance of these two people covered them up, and now there is only one Xiahoudun who was severely injured by Zhao Yun in his father's generation, and the rest have been killed by Li Yuanjie.

Cao Pi hurried forward, helped Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen up, and said, "Both brothers, hurry up!"

Xun You excitedly said: "Hey! If the two generals help each other, and the walls of Shouchun are so tall, my lord! Then the Jiangdong soldiers and horses will definitely not be able to break through Shouchun!"

Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen shouted in unison: "The last general will serve his life with death! To shake the prestige of our Cao family!"

Cao Pi immediately hugged Cao Zhen and Cao Xiu's arms. Cao Xiu said excitedly: "Now is the time of my Cao family's life and death. My brothers and grandchildren will not accept my Cao family's prestige, and block the Jiangdong boy from Shouchun city." !"

"Brother!" Cao Pi was so excited that his eyes turned red again.

"Ziheng!" Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen also shouted.

"My Cao brothers work together carefully, and the great cause of our father's generation will definitely be revitalized!" Cao Pi said, his voice trembling already, Cao Xiu, Cao Zhen, and Cao Pi looked at each other and nodded vigorously.

Immediately, the two ordered the only 15 elite soldiers left around Cao Pi, and [-] county soldiers, to go to Shouchun. The seat of Yangzhou is the number one city in Yangzhou. When Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor here, we can also see the prosperity of Shouchun. During the fight, Cao Cao killed the food official. It can also be seen that Cao Cao spent a lot of effort in attacking Yuan Shu, who was rebellious, but now it is so difficult for Jiangdong to attack Shouchun...
