Chapter 298
"Father, father, why are you laughing and luring out the ambush of the Han army again!"
Cao Pi couldn't care about the dignity of his father and son, and complained directly to Cao Cao in anger.
Sima Yi sighed: "If Liu Bei really sets up an ambush, even if the king doesn't laugh, will we be able to escape this catastrophe?"
Cao Pi was speechless.
The father and son of the Cao family, a group of remnants of the defeated generals, could only watch the soldiers and horses in front of them attack.
It was as if they were all desperate and had given up resistance.
Suddenly.
Sima Yi's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "King, that's not the Han army, it's our people!"
In Cao Cao's desperate eyes, he suddenly swelled up, and he was busy staring at it carefully.
The banner of the soldiers and horses is approaching, and sure enough, they are all Qin army armor, and they are wearing the flag of "full".
"It's our people, it's our people, the sky won't die and I'm Cao Cao~~"
Cao Cao cried with joy and was so excited that he danced with his hands.
Cao Pi and other remnants of the defeated generals were all overjoyed, as if they had been amnesty.
After a short time, thousands of soldiers and horses approached, and it turned out to be a group of grain guards.
The first general learned that it was Cao Cao who was coming, and hurriedly rode his horse to the palace to see him.
"Chenlongxi County is too full of favors, meet the king!"
came to dismount the saddle and fell down in front of Cao Cao.
Cao Cao's face was full of joy, and he waved his hand and said, "Man Boning, come quickly, why are you here?"
Man Zhong got up and arched his hand: "The minister knew that Jicheng was besieged, so he collected 10,000 pieces of grain and grass, and originally wanted to escort it to Jicheng in person, but he didn't want to meet the king here, the king is..."
Manzhong's gaze crossed Cao Cao and looked at the remnants of the defeated generals behind him.
Cao Cao let out a long sigh, ashamed to speak.
Sima Yi sighed: "Ma Chao rebelled, let Liu Bei's army enter Jicheng, the king was forced to abandon the city and retreat westward, full of Taishou, quickly welcome the king into Didao City." "
Full of flattery, his face was full of disbelief, and he couldn't believe that Jicheng had fallen.
After losing his mind slightly, Man Chong ordered the whole army to turn around and escort Cao Cao into Di Dao.
Cao Cao and the others had just entered the city, and they were finally able to drink a cup of crushing wine and eat a hot meal.
Soon, Pang De, Xu Huang and other surviving generals came to meet Di Dao one after another.
Cao Cao learned that the three generals of the Xiahou clan were beheaded by Zhang Xiu, and Zhu Ling was also killed by Zhao Yun.
And the most devastating blow to Cao Cao's spirit was the mastermind Guo Jia, whose beloved son Cao Zhang, was captured by the Han army.
"Zhang'er, Fengxiao, you are also-~—"
Cao Cao's eyes welled up with tears, his qi and blood surged, and a stream of old blood reached his throat again.
Sima Yi and Cao Pi hurriedly stepped forward to support them, fearing that Cao Cao would vomit blood and faint again.
Cao Cao pressed his hand on the desk, his nails almost pulled out the blood, and he took a few deep breaths before he could barely suppress the qi and blood.
"Don't worry, as long as this king is still alive, my Great Qin will still be there!"
"I, Cao Cao, swear that one day, I will avenge you, and I will let the big-eared thief and Xiao Yuan pay for the blood debt!"
Cao Cao gritted his teeth and swore that he wanted to use hatred to support his shaky will of faith.
Seeing that Cao Cao did not vomit blood and fainted, Sima Yi and Cao Pi glanced at each other, and only then did they secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
"For the sake of today's plan, please also ask the king to give an order immediately, let the former general abandon Qishan quickly, and lead his troops north to come to rendezvous. "
Sima Yi reminded.
Cao Cao's gloomy eyes suddenly swept a gleam.
The former general Xiahoudun still had 20,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and he stationed troops on the front line of Qishan to block Zhang Fei's army on the South Road of the Han Kingdom.
Now that Jicheng has been lost, it is meaningless for Xiahoudun to defend Qishan again, so he naturally has to quickly retreat north to meet.
Although the 50,000 troops in Jicheng were completely lost, with the 20,000 soldiers and horses of Xiahoudun, there was still a glimmer of hope for a comeback.
"Quickly pass on Xiahou Yuanrang, and order him to bring those 20,000 horses back to Di Dao for this king!"
Cao Cao couldn't wait to give the order.
"Great King, although Didao City is the seat of Longxi County, there is no danger to defend. "
"In the opinion of the ministers, it is better for us to abandon Di Dao and retreat north and retreat to Jincheng County. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
"Jincheng was originally operated by Han Sui for many years, the city is strong, and the Yellow River is a barrier, barely a strong city. "
Full pet reminded.
Cao Cao pondered for a moment, waved his hand and said: "Just rely on Boning, just wait for Yuan Rang to arrive, and immediately retreat to Jincheng!"
...
Jicheng.
When Cao Cao was fleeing in embarrassment, Liu Bei was already calming people's hearts and putting up lights in the city to prepare for Xiao Yuan's marriage.
Two days later, Zhang Xiu, Zhao Yun and other generals returned one after another to return to their lives.
"Cao Cao's life should not be extinguished, but he still let him escape. "
However, Zicong and Zilong killed several Qin generals, wiped out 7,000 fleeing Qin troops, and captured dozens of Qin officials, which can be regarded as stripping Cao Cao's three layers of skin. "
Xiao Yuan smiled faintly.
Liu Bei nodded slightly, and said with a proud smile: "'~ What the prime minister said is right, Cao Cao was stripped of three layers of skin, and he is at the end of his rope, and the rest is nothing more than chasing the dead and chasing the north and beating the water dogs." "
"General Hansheng and General Zilong captured Cao Zhang and Guo Jia alive respectively. "
"One of these two is Cao Cao's beloved son, and the other is Cao Cao's strategist, which can be regarded as two strange goods. "
"Dare to ask what the king plans to do?"
Pang Tong reminded with a smile.
Liu Bei's eyes were overjoyed, and he looked back at Xiao Yuan to ask for advice.
"Guo Jia is known as a ghost plot, if you simply talk about strategy, the one who can match it in the world is just a sleeping dragon and a phoenix. "
"Such a resourceful man, if he can be reinstated, is naturally the best. "
Xiao Yuan still has enough respect for Guo Jia, an opponent.
He even generously admitted that if he wasn't a traverser (King of Mo's), he would not have been Guo Jia's opponent if he had known history and pure wisdom.
"To get such a high evaluation from Prime Minister Changsu, this Guo Jia must be worth surrendering. "
"It's just that this person is Cao Cao's mastermind, I'm afraid that he may not be able to descend to Ah Qi?"
Liu Bei frowned, and his eyes showed a little concern.
"What the king said is reasonable, if you want to surrender this Guo Jia, it is indeed a tricky matter, let the minister think about it..."
Xiao Yuan pointed his fingertips on his forehead, his brows condensed.
After a moment of silence, a gleam flashed in his eyes.
"If you want to surrender Guo Jia, just relying on the official Xu Jue, and even the king's enough sincerity is not enough to impress him. "
"We're going to have to do something to make him have to come down. "
The corners of Xiao Yuan's eyes flashed a little weird.
Liu Bei hurriedly asked, "What means does Prime Minister Changsu plan to use?"
"The minister's means are Cao Zhang!".
