On the top of Wancheng, after sending troops from everywhere, Zhong Miao also took Xiang Lang to the city.

Looking at the brightly lit Cao Cao camp in the distance, Xiang Lang couldn't help but say strangely:

"Zhong Gong, do you say that our army's actions like this can really help the Governor succeed in his sneak attack?"

"Just by ordering the two generals to lead their troops out of the city, the governor can succeed?"

"I don't know!"

Zhong Xuan shook his head and said:

"After all, the governor only brought more than 2,000 horsemen, how difficult it is to sneak attack Cao's camp!"

Until now, the two still haven't figured out Xiao Zhe's overall plan.

Because above the order from Xiao Zhe, there is a sentence:

Tonight's raid ordered the soldiers to be divided into three squads, 3,000 each, and divided into three divisions, northern, southern, and western, to attract the attention of the enemy.

Other than this, they didn't know how Xiao Zhe was going to raid and when to do it.

Therefore, after giving the order, the two went up to the city to observe the situation in the distance.

As a result, I waited left and right, and I didn't see the sound of shouting and killing in Cao Cao's military camp.

Seeing that the time was approaching the fifth watch, Xiang Lang sighed:

"I'm afraid that the governor saw that the enemy camp was very well guarded, so he didn't do it!"

"Why don't you order the generals to withdraw now!"

"Withdraw now, and you can rush back before dawn!"

As soon as Zhong Xuan heard this, he shook his head and said in a deep voice:

"You can't retreat, no matter whether the governor succeeds or not, our army can't retreat until the governor has an order!"

"If we interrupt the governor's plan because of our army's retreat, so that our army is not successful, it will be your and my sin!"

"But now we don't have many troops in the city!"

When Xiang Lang heard this, he said with a worried face:

"There were only about 26,000 people in the city, but now that 9,000 people have been divided, there are only 15,000 left. "

"If the enemy army takes this opportunity to block the gate of our army and set up an ambush, then our army's soldiers and horses will not be able to come back!"

"Don't worry, there will always be a way!"

Zhong Xuan stared at Cao Cao's camp in the distance with a pair of eyes:

"Since the governor will arrange it like this, he will definitely not have a backhand for 10!"

He doesn't believe in others, can he still not believe in Xiao Zhe?

After all, if it weren't for Xiao Zhe, Sun Jianjun would not have developed to this point.

He didn't believe that Xiao Zhe would come up with a plan with no beginning and no end!

Xiang Lang saw Zhong Xuan like this, his heart became more and more worried, and he was about to persuade again, when he saw a soldier hurrying over, and said urgently:

"Zhong Taishou, someone at the south gate claims to be the governor of Jingnan of our army, and asks me to wait for the door to open and let me go!"

Zhong Xuan's body was shocked, and he hurriedly asked:

"How many people are coming from the South Gate?"

The soldier arched his hand and said:

"About forty or fifty people, all riding horses, the first one called himself Xu Chu, and the escort governor came, I didn't dare to let it go without permission, so I came to inquire!"

When Xiang Lang heard this, he exclaimed to Zhong Xuan:

"Gong Zhong, didn't the governor lead more than 2,000 horsemen this time?"

"Now there are only dozens of horsemen left, could it be that the army is defeated?"

Zhong Xuan listened, his heart jumped, and he hurriedly scolded:

"Don't talk nonsense, come with me and have a look!"

At that moment, he took Xiang Lang towards the south gate, and as soon as he arrived here, he saw dozens of horsemen waiting outside the door.

Zhong Xuan looked at it and hurriedly shouted:

"Dare to ask where the governor is now?

As soon as his voice fell, he saw a soldier in a black coat and a black hat riding out on horseback, and said with a smile:

"Upstairs, Gong Zhong is here?"

"Is it okay to open the door with me?"

Although Zhong Xuan had only met Xiao Zhe a few times, he remembered Xiao Zhe's melodious appearance deeply, and when he heard it, he hurriedly shouted to everyone:

"If the governor comes, you won't open the door yet!"

When the soldiers under his command heard this, they hurriedly opened the gate and let Xiao Zhe and the others enter.

Seeing this, Zhong Miao hurriedly went down to the city to greet him.

I finally saw Xiao Zhe, who was dusty but in good spirits, riding a horse.

Seeing that it was Xiao Zhe who came in person, Zhong Xuan was surprised and delighted:

"I don't want the governor to come in person, but the general doesn't know the governor and doesn't dare to open the door, so he specially came to report to me, and the governor has to wait!"

Seeing this, Xiao Zhe stepped forward and took Zhong Xuan's hand and said with a smile:

"Zhong Gong doesn't have to be like this, the soldiers didn't open the door when they heard my name, but it shows that Zhong Gong is strict in governing the army, I am very happy, what is the reason to blame!"

In his opinion, the soldiers guarding the door should be like this, as long as they are not identified, they cannot open the door.

If he signed up, the soldiers guarding the door would open the door, and he would have to blame Zhong Xuan.

Seeing this, Zhong Xuan smiled for a while:

"It's still the governor who is generous!"

Xiang Lang also stepped forward to salute:

"Xiaguan Xiang Lang, meet the governor!"

"Juda doesn't need to be polite!"

Xiao Zhe waved his hand and smiled indifferently:

"In the past few days, I have lost two people to guard the city, and I let the two stay up all night and wait tonight, I really have to work for the two!"

When the two of them saw Xiao Zhe mention this, they remembered it, and Zhong Xuan hurriedly asked:

"By the way, Governor, our army received the news, didn't it say that the Governor led more than 2,000 horsemen to reinforce this time?"

"Why are there only a few dozen horsemen left with me now!"

He asked, Xiang Lang also observed from the side, and he thought that Xiao Zhe was defeated, but now looking at the appearance of everyone, except for some hurried wind and dust, there is no killing appearance.

Since it was not a defeat, where did the rest of the soldiers and horses go?

Hearing this, Xiao Zhe smiled slightly:

"Didn't the book say that?"

"Our army is going to attack at night!"

"Did the Governor really go on a night raid?"

When the two of them heard this, they glanced at each other, and they were both puzzled, and then said to Langqi:

"But I waited all night in the city, and I didn't see any noise in the enemy's camp!"

When Xiao Zhe heard this, he shook his head and smiled:

"Our army is attacking the rear battalion, how can you see the vision when you look at the front battalion?"

"Come with me to the city and have a look!"

As he spoke, he led the two of them up to the city tower, and after going up the city all the way, he pointed to the red cloud in the northeast in the distance:

"Look, that's the enemy's rear camp!"

After listening to Xiao Zhe's explanation, Zhong Xuan and Xiang Lang's faces changed, and they looked at the red clouds in the northwest direction with some horror, and exclaimed:

"That's not a red cloud, but a fire that our army has successfully attacked?"

They also saw the red cloud in the distance, but their attention was only on Cao Cao's camp, and they didn't notice that the direction of the red cloud was the rear camp of the enemy army.

Seeing this, Xiao Zhe stepped forward and looked at Hongyun and said lightly:

"That's right, where is Cao Cao's rear camp, a place used to hoard our army's grain and grass!"

"I used my tactics tonight to mobilize the enemy's soldiers and horses, and I set fire to this camp. "

"Now the red light is monstrous, it can be seen that our army has succeeded!"

"I see, I see!"

When Zhong Xuan heard this, he suddenly realized:

"Why did the governor want our army to mobilize troops and horses!"

"It turned out to be to attack the enemy camp for the sake of sound!"

Xiang Lang listened, but looked blankly into the distance and said:

"How much food does it take to burn such a big fire!"

Xiao Zhe estimated for a while, and said in a deep voice:

"At least hundreds of thousands of stones!" (read the violent novel, go to the Feilu Novel Network!)

"This grain and grass can't be used by our army, and it can't be used by Cao Cao!"

"Even if you burn them all, it's not a pity at all!"

Xiang Lang heard that hundreds of thousands of stones of grain had been burned, and he was about to feel distressed, but as soon as he heard this, he was stopped.

Seeing this, Zhong Xuan nodded and said:

"What the Governor said is that grain and grass cannot be used by our army, and it is better to burn them than to keep them!"

Seeing that Xiao Zhe burned hundreds of thousands of stones, grains and grass, it was also an understatement, and he secretly admired it in his heart.

It seems that most people understand this kind of truth, but it is rare to see someone as ruthless as Xiao Zhe.

After thinking for a while, he said in a deep voice:

"But our army burned grain and grass, I'm afraid it will anger Cao Cao!"

"If you are angry and angry, what should you do if you attack the city in a big way?"

"All I want is for him to be angry!"

Xiao Zhe looked at the two of them:

"Our reinforcements are coming, Cao Cao is not angry, how can he stay here?"

"Our army is now going to attract Cao Cao to stay here!"

"Even if he doesn't die, he has to be let shed in Nanyang. "

Listening to Xiao Zhe's fierce words, Zhong Xuan and Xiang Lang were both shocked, and then Xiang Lang said:

"Then the governor, why don't you quickly recruit Li Yan and other generals to withdraw and return?"

"There are only more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in the city, if Cao Cao attacks, my army may not be able to withstand it!"

When Xiao Zhe heard this, he waved his hand and vetoed:

"There is no need to recall, now that the enemy's forces are scattered, our army can concentrate superior forces to break them individually!"

"After ordering Li Yan and the other troops to go out, gather in one place and let them surprise attack the department of Li Dian in Thornyang, and at the same time send an order to Huo Jun in Huyang, ordering him to go to Bowang to surprise attack the forbidden department!"

"Break the two, immediately go to Wuyin and wait for orders!"

"As for the garrison of Wancheng, I have my own way!"

His series of orders made Zhong Xiang Lang a little confused.

That's all they have to do with their troops, they don't transfer them back from the outside, they have to go out to attack.

Then how to hold on to this city?

But looking at Xiao Zhe's determined face, the two of them were not able to persuade again, so they took the order and left.

As the night gradually faded, the generals in Cao Cao's camp had gathered in one place.

I saw Cao Cao sitting on the main seat with a pale face, and in front of him was Cao Xiu's corpse covered by a white cloth.

Cao Hong was lying on the corpse and wept sadly:

"Hugh, Hugh!"

"Uncle hurt you!"

"I regret not listening to you, causing this disaster, how can you let me go to see my brother!"

Cao Xiu is his cousin, if Cao Cao regards Cao Xiu as a son, then Cao Hong regards Cao Xiu as his own son.

At this time, Cao Xiu died, and Cao Hong naturally found it difficult to suppress his sadness.

After crying like this for a long time, Cao Hong looked at Cao Cao and said:

"Brother, Wen Lie died so tragically, how can we sit idly by?"

"Ask my brother and me for more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, I will personally kill Shangwan City, capture Xiao Zhe'er, and avenge Xiu'er!"

Seeing Cao Hong like this, Cao Cao was also sad in his heart, but when Xi Xian saw this, he stepped forward and sighed:

"Please also ask General Cao to mourn!"

"Although the tragic death of the major general and the sadness in our hearts, most of our army's grain and grass have been burned, and now there are less than tens of thousands of stones left!"

"Even if our army wants to attack the city, it will be difficult to maintain the grain and grass!"

Before he finished speaking, Cao Hong turned around and shouted:

"Get out of here, poor and sour and rotten, if it weren't for the plan to come, how could I have died a tragic death here!"

"I fought Lu Bu well at the beginning, but now it is an opportunity to seize Nanyang, and I want our army to come!"

"The result is good now, how much 963 grain was confiscated, and it was all burned!"

"The city has not been captured, and a general of our army has been damaged, so what face do you have to say here!"

Xi Xian was drunk by Cao Hong like this, and was stunned on the spot.

When Cao Cao saw this, he got up and scolded:

"Zilian, how can you talk to Zhicai!"

"Don't apologize yet!"

Cao Hong was scolded by Cao Cao like this, and he cried and said:

"Brother, my little brother is aggrieved!"

"Look at Hugh'er's appearance!"

"Just tell me if our army can endure this breath!"

Cao Cao listened, and felt a tingling pain in his heart, but his face was gritted and said:

"I'll make you apologize for your sins!!"

Seeing this, Cao Hong gritted his teeth and got up and bowed to Xi Xian:

"The last general has no case, please forgive me!"

Seeing Cao Hong like this, Xi Xian had to sigh:

"Therefore, I know that the general is sad in his heart, and we also feel it, Fang Cai is inappropriate to speak, no wonder the general is so!"

When Cao Hong heard this, he didn't reply, and turned around and cried on Cao Xiu's corpse.

Seeing Cao Hong like this, Cao Cao had no choice but to wave his hand and say:

"Wait here, Zhicai, Gongda, you come out with me!"

At that moment, he led the two of them to the tent.

It wasn't until outside the tent that Fang suppressed his sadness and looked at the two people:

"Two gentlemen, now that Xiao Zhe has returned, is there only one way for our army to withdraw?"

Listening to Lao Cao's words, Xi Xian frowned, he was familiar with Cao Cao, and naturally knew that Cao Cao's words were not intended to retreat, so he hurriedly persuaded:

"Lord, now that Xiao Zhe is coming to help, there will be reinforcements behind!"

"Our army's grain and grass are burned, and the back road will be cut off, how can there be no reason not to retreat!"

"Therefore, I know that the young general is dead, and the lord is sad, but this is not the time to be rash!"

Persuaded like this, seeing that Xun Yu was silent, he hurriedly said:

"Gongda, you also persuade the lord!"

"Why don't you say a word?"

But when Xun You heard this, he asked Cao Cao rhetorically:

"Does the lord really want to fight here?"

When Cao Cao heard this, he said with hatred in his eyes:

"The enemy army killed Hugh Er this time, how can our army retreat without a fight!"

"If you can fight, you should fight!"

Xun You said without hesitation:

"My lord, then our army may be able to gamble now!"

"If it can be done and kill Xiao Zhe, our army will not come in vain!"

Hearing this, Cao Cao's expression changed, and Xi Xian looked at Xun You with some surprise.

Now, does Xun Yu still have a plan to reverse? .
