"Zilong, come here! Hurry up. Pang Tong hurriedly stopped Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun heard Pang Tong's call, and when he saw Pang Tong's somewhat obscene smile, Zhao Yun, who had been with Pang Tong for a long time, knew that Pang Tong had some crooked ideas.

"Shi Yuan, did you think of any strategy?" Zhao Yun opened the door and said sharply.

Pang Tong is very happy, after getting along with Zhao Yun for so long, Zhao Yun finally resonates with him in terms of IQ. He didn't want to think that he was smiling so lewdly, and those who knew him well must know what kind of bad idea he was thinking.

Pang Tong pointed to the map and said, "Zilong, let's go this way!" ”

Zhao Yun looked at Pang Tong and pointed to a location on the map, and asked suspiciously, "Go here?" Will it work here? ”

"Okay! Definitely! Pang Tong patted his chest and reassured.

"Then listen to you." Zhao Yun didn't know where Pang Tong's confidence came from, but deep down he was reminding Zhao Yun that he must believe in Pang Tong.

No matter whether the place Pang Tong refers to is reliable or not, Zhao Yun has to gamble.

And the place that Pang Tong refers to is called Long Kang, which is not very famous.

Zhao Yun really couldn't understand why Pang Tong wanted to go there.

Why did Pang Tong go to Longkang with a large army? The reason is actually quite simple. Long Kang is a place that is not very famous, and there is no fortified city around, so you can hide from the surveillance of Cao's army. What's more, Long Kang is already very close to Shouchun. Pang Tong wondered if there was a hidden road on Long Kang's side to go to Shouchun.

In other words, Pang Tong is also gambling.

If the bet is won, Pang Tong will be greatly better. If you lose the bet, the joke will be bigger. The army led by Pang Tong and Zhao Yun brought about two days of dry food, if Pang Tong miscalculated, and there was no supply after two days, then the food problem of such Liu soldiers would be serious. Without food, Liu Jun was on someone else's territory, and he could only starve to death. Or be trapped to death by Cao Jun.

But Pang Tong's decision was bad news for Cao Jun.

The city checkpoints after Mengcheng all saw wolf smoke, and they were all scared half to death. The city or checkpoint that received the information is fully prepared.

But they waited left and right, and they didn't see Liu Jun's arrival. Cao Jun was worried all in his heart. When various scouts were sent to investigate, there was no movement of Liu Jun, as if Liu Jun had disappeared out of thin air.

The ignition of the wolf smoke in Mengcheng means that Liu Jun's army has appeared. And this news was quickly passed between the cities, and finally reached Cao Cao's hands.

After Cao Cao met Liu Xie, the news of Pang Tong's appearance in Mengcheng was placed in front of him.

At the same time, not long after, the news that Ruyin City was breached by Liu Jun also reached Cao Cao's hands.

The current situation has eroded to the point where Cao Cao cannot resist.

A large number of Liu troops led by Pang Tong appeared in the northwest of Shouchun, and their whereabouts disappeared, and they did not know where to go. But Cao Cao has a bottom in his heart, and the purpose of Pang Tong and Zhao Yun is the Shouchun City where he is.

There is no danger to defend in the southwest, and Ruyin City, which can block Liu Jun, has become Liu Jun's bag. This consequence was caused by Cao Cao himself. If Cao Cao hadn't thought that the plan was perfect and came up with some flood plan, Liu Jun would not have concentrated in Ruyin City in large numbers. Cao Cao's beloved general Li Dian put his life into it behind the implementation of the water attack strategy. The Le Jin sent out by Cao Cao doesn't have any news now, so you don't need to think much about it to know that there is more luck and less luck.

Cao Cao's heart hurt like scraping meat. Li Dian and Le Jin are two of Cao Jun's generals with different surnames, who are quite valued by Cao Cao. Li Dian had the style of an elder, and the officers and men in the army loved him very much, and his death seriously hit the morale of Cao Jun. When many soldiers heard that Li Dian had died, they secretly wept. Le Jin is not afraid of death, he does not want to die in battle, he is one of the fierce generals in Cao Cao's hands, no matter where he suppresses, he is a good player. Now that he doesn't know life and death, Cao Cao feels distressed when he thinks about it.

In this way, the two generals are gone, which is more serious than the elimination of Cao Cao's thousands of soldiers and horses. After all, thousands of troops are easy to get, but one will be hard to find.

Li Dian was buried by Cao Cao, but Cao Cao hoped that Li Dian could live.

Cao Cao is not done with his heartache yet.

Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang, the two stinky boys, attracted so many troops from Cao Cao, and they didn't do it sooner or later, but they did it when Cao Cao's strategy failed, resulting in Cao Cao being unable to transfer troops from Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun to defend Shouchun.

Cao Cao didn't know how many times he had secretly cursed Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang. You, the two of them add up to so many troops, if they had fought with Cao Cao before, Cao Cao would still be able to plan from it. But now Cao Cao is in difficulty, and he is so angry that he will die.

It's despicable and shameless.

For today's plan, Cao Cao can only adopt Guo Jia's strategy and stick to Shouchun.

What will be the fate of Shouchun, Cao Cao has long predicted. He Cao Cao I is a hero, death is not terrible for him, the key is how to die. Cao Cao himself has a head wind, and if this disease breaks out, Cao Cao is worse than dead. For death, Cao Cao has long been downsized. The only thing Cao Cao cared about was his family.

Over the years, Cao Cao has been away for a long time for the sake of his ambitions, neglecting his family. Don't look at Cao Cao as a treacherous person, but Cao Cao attaches great importance to his family. Even if his family has committed a heinous crime, Cao Cao will do his best to protect it.

Cao Cao's purpose of choosing to stick to Shouchun also had to allow Cao Ang in Huainan to have more time to prepare.

Now that Zhang Liao has led the army directly to Chengde, Cao Cao knows the real purpose. Zhang Liao wants to kill Huainan.

The Cao family and the Xiahou family are both in Huainan. If Cao Ang can't resist it, then the Cao family and the Xiahou family will become Liu Jun's prisoners, and they will be left to the flesh.

Cao Cao didn't want to see such a thing, and he didn't want it to happen after his death. Cao Cao would be furious at the thought of his family being bullied after his death.

After estimating the direction of the overall situation, Cao Cao personally sent a letter to Cao Ang in Huainan. In fact, this letter is a bit like Cao Cao's will.

In his letter, Cao Cao asked Cao Ang to hurry up and transfer his family so that he could not fall into the hands of Liu Jun. If you hear the news that he Cao Cao was captured or killed, you must not think about avenging him, and you must leave Yuzhou immediately. Of course, Cao Cao pointed out a clear path for Cao Ang. One of them is to throw himself at Sun Ce. Sun Ce is a capable person with promises, and he will definitely accept Cao Ang and them. But if Cao Ang felt that Sun Ce was unreliable, then Cao Cao let Cao Ang flee overseas with his family. In overseas places, life and death are unpredictable, which is what Cao Cao does not want to see. And the last way, as a last resort, Cao Cao asked Cao Ang to surrender to Liu Yu with everyone in the Xiahou family and the Cao family. Cao Cao knew that Liu Yu was as emotionally important as him. Although it was a very tragic thing to become a prisoner of the ranks, Cao Cao felt that if he died in battle, Liu Yu would definitely take care of Cao Ang and them for the sake of his own face. may not be able to be free, or be bullied, but the safety of life can be guaranteed, and there is no problem with the continuation of the Cao family. It's a helpless choice. Cao Cao knew that his eldest son, Cao Ang, would make the best choice.

While Cao Cao was writing this letter, Guo Jia suddenly walked in.

Guo Jia had a very high status among Cao Cao's army, and the relationship between him and Cao Cao was that of a superior and a superior, and he was also a teacher and a friend. Cao Cao's personal bodyguard Xu Chu knew this, Guo Jia came to see Cao Cao, unless Cao Cao had something to do with him, often Xu Chu would not report it, and let Guo Jia enter. This was agreed upon by Cao Cao.

Guo Jia saw what Cao Cao was writing on a slip, and at a distance of one foot from Cao Cao, he arched his hand and said, "Meet the lord below." ”

The relationship between Guo Jia and Cao Cao is good, but after all, the identity of the superiors and subordinates is there, and Guo Jia can't mess with the rules.

Cao Cao came back to his senses and saw Guo Jia's figure, he was not very surprised by Guo Jia's arrival, and said softly: "Fengxiao, why are you here?" ”

Of course, Guo Jia came to Cao Cao to have something to do here.

Before coming here, Guo Jia went to visit Xun Yu. Xun Yu was abolished by Cao Cao from all official positions and powers, and he was at home at ease. The so-called people go to tea and cool, after Xun Yu lost power, there were no officials and people who used to go to Xun Yu's house when they had nothing to do.

The world is hot and cold.

Guo Jia and Xun Yu can be regarded as growing up together, Xun Yu is now left out in the cold, Guo Jia still often visits him. Guo Jia found that Xun Yu's condition was getting worse and worse, and he was about to get seriously ill and bedridden.

Xun Yu said that he could clean up, but Guo Jia could see from his eyes that Xun Yu was very worried, panicked and troubled.

In fact, at this point, Guo Jia knew what Xun Yu was thinking. Xun Yu was not only worried about Cao Cao, but also worried about his future, and at the same time worried about the future of the Xun family. Xun Yu knew Cao Cao and knew that Cao Cao would definitely defend Shouchun, and the final result would be that Cao Cao could only die. Even if Liu Jun didn't kill Cao Cao, Cao Cao would have cut himself off. Cao Cao was arrogant, and he didn't want to be a prisoner of others. The Xun family's own family in Yingchuan has already thrown themselves into Liu Yu's arms, but it does not mean that Xun Yu and Xun Yu will join Liu Yu. For so many years, Xun Yu and Xun You and other children of the Xun family have helped Cao Cao and Liu Yu to fight against each other, and God knows if Liu Yu will be angry with the Xun family because of this. Maybe when the world is not stable, Liu Yu will not do it. Once the world is stable, if the accounts are settled after the autumn, the Xun family will be miserable. The Emperor of the Han Dynasty has no credibility in this regard. Even if he is a heartless faint gentleman Liu Hong, this means of settling accounts after the autumn is very handy.

For the fear of his future, Xun Yu is tired. He is full of wealth, only eight buckets high, if he surrenders to the Shenwu Imperial Court, this Jiuqing position will definitely have a place for Xun Yu. But Xun Yu has always had the idea of ending with the beginning in his heart, he threw himself to Cao Cao, he was Cao Cao's subordinate all his life, and it was impossible to throw himself into others. But Cao Cao has now left him out in the cold, and Xun Yu doesn't know how sad he is in his heart.

But Xun Yu didn't know how to say that Guo Jia had no way to enlighten him.

After thinking about it, Guo Jia felt that it was better to come and communicate with Cao Cao in depth.

"Lord, I just came back from Wen Ruo. Wen Ruo's state is not very good. Judging from Wen Ruo's words and demeanor, Wen Ruo is very worried about the situation of the lord. Guo Jia told everything he had just seen.

The brush in Cao Cao's hand stopped.

From this point, it can be seen that Cao Cao cares about Xun Yu very much. But Xun Yu's thoughts were contrary to Cao Cao's, and Cao Cao couldn't accept this fact.

After a while, Cao Cao said: "Let him stay at home and don't think nonsense." ”

"My lord, in fact, it is feasible according to Wen Ruo's strategy. Can the lord be wronged? Guo Jia felt that Xun Yu's strategy of armistice first was feasible.

Cao Cao had already written the letter he was going to write to Cao Ang, put down the brush, and said, "Grievances? Feng Xiao thinks that this matter only needs to be aggrieved for a while? ”

Guo Jia was very ashamed. Cao Cao was able to achieve the position of prime minister, not only by his personal ability, but also by a bunch of subordinates. Cao Cao wanted an armistice, but Cao Jun didn't think so. Over the years, Cao Jun and Liu Jun have fought countless battles, but in the end, it was Cao Cao who took the lead in asking for a truce. The spirit of the army will be destroyed in one fell swoop. When the time comes, don't say anything else to have an after-effect, Cao Cao's ability to stabilize the situation is a reflection of Cao Cao's ability. Obviously, Cao Cao was unwilling to face such a thing. Now he only wants to fight to the death with Liu Jun.

"Lord, what are you writing? Is it perfecting your book? Guo Jia knew that Cao Cao usually wrote a book, which was a summary of Cao Cao's experience in governing the country and the army, so he asked this question.

Cao Cao shook his head and said, "This is a letter to Zixiu. Lone has something to explain. ”

Explain?!

Guo Jia knew what Cao Cao's letter meant. It's a will. If he didn't have any brains, Guo Jia wouldn't be able to have the title of a ghost talent.

"Lord, we're not there yet. There's room for redemption! Guo Jia's face was full of sadness.

Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia like this, and immediately became happy, and said, "When did your prodigal son become a daughter's family." Looks like I'm about to cry. Don't, horse pee, you better put it away. ”

Guo Jia was silent, Cao Cao had already made up his mind to die, and he Guo Fengxiao couldn't say anything more about him.

"My lord, I am willing to follow my lord anywhere." Guo Jia also expressed his determination.

Cao Cao stared at Guo Jia, then nodded and said, "With filial piety with you, you won't feel lonely anymore." ”

Guo Jia and Cao Cao looked at each other eagerly, no one could understand the kind of affection between them, it was beyond the relationship between superiors and subordinates, they were confidants.

Without Cao Cao, Guo Jia would have lost the meaning of existence.

Similarly, without Guo Jia, Cao Cao would not be able to exert all his strength.
