"Ran away?" Sun Ce was surprised. He estimated that Cao Cao would run, but he didn't expect Cao Cao to run so fast that he didn't even survive for twelve hours, which was too unexpected.

"Didn't expect that, did you?" Yuan Shu's eyebrows were about to fly, and his eyes were full of frivolity that was incommensurate with his age. "I didn't expect that this dwarf usually talks the truth, but when he really fights, he will be cowardly. Hehe, this time I was negligent, I didn't expect him to run so fast, I thought he would hold on for two or three days. Huang Achu's stone thrower is doing well, I guess Cao Cao was scared away by that play. Well, when I enter the city, I will reward her again, and I will definitely seal her several counties as food in the future. ”

Sun Ce couldn't cry or laugh, and hurriedly interrupted Yuan Shu. "General, do you want to pursue the generals at this moment?"

Chen Yu grabbed the topic and laughed: "Of course you have to chase, after fighting for so many days, you can't let Cao Cao run away like this." Speaking of which, Sun Lang, I have to thank you. To tell you the truth, when you said that you would take Wancheng within ten days, I was very skeptical. ”

"General, you can't chase it." Sun Ce didn't care about arguing with Chen Yu, and hurriedly stopped it. "It's just been a day of fighting, and Cao Cao's losses are very limited, even if he has losses. If my guess is correct, he should have taken his Dongjun soldiers away, numbering between four and five thousand, and there were probably four or five hundred cavalry outside the city to meet him. We are all foot soldiers, rushing to catch up, what if we are ambushed? ”

"He still dares to ambush me at this time?" Yuan Shu blinked, his eyes full of pride.

"Why not? Cao Cao broke through in the second half of the night, and the reason was that he couldn't see clearly in the dark light. You can't see exactly which way he's going, and you don't know what he's arranged. Either you can't catch up with him, or you'll fall into his ambush. ”

Chen Yu was embarrassed, and her smile froze on her face. The other generals looked at each other and closed their mouths.

Yuan Shu rolled his eyes, still not very willing.

"General, Sun Lang is right." Yan Xiang walked in quickly. "Our purpose is to occupy Wancheng, not to kill Cao Cao. Cao Cao has become a lost dog, and a crossbow can be destroyed. Instead of risking the pursuit, it is better to fight steadily and steadily, immediately send people into the city to persuade surrender, and take Wancheng as soon as possible. ”

Yuan Shuyi was excited, rolled his eyes, exhaled a sullen breath, stretched his hand into the armpit and scratched it, and then reached to the end of his nose to sniff, and said reluctantly: "Okay, listen to you." Alas, I haven't taken a shower for a few days, and it's almost stinking, so I have to take a good shower when I go to the city. ”

With Yan Xiang's assistance, Sun Ce successfully persuaded Yuan Shu, although Chen Yu and others were unwilling, but when they thought of the experience of being attacked by Cao Cao at night in Xinye last time, and then thought about Sun Ce's reminder, no one dared to take the initiative to ask for battle. Staying here, you can easily receive Wancheng, and although you may be able to catch up, you may be killed, but it is more likely to be ambushed by Cao Cao and suffer heavy losses.

In troubled times, the people under their command are the foundation of their lives, and no one wants to take this risk.

Before Sun Ce arrived, these people persuaded Yuan Shu to pursue Cao Cao in unison, and they were angry at the bullfight, as if they could kill Cao Cao if they caught up, and even cut off Cao Cao's head. Now listening to Sun Ce and Yan Xiangyi, who is silent, Yuan Shu saw this scene, his heart was angry, and his face became not very good-looking, and he scolded Huai twice.

Chen Yu was even more depressed when he saw it in his eyes, and he even looked at Sun Ce with a little unpleasant eyes. Sun Ce realized that he was too anxious and cut Chen Yu's face, and wanted to ease up, but when he saw Chen Yu's expression, it was estimated that even if he lowered his head, Chen Yu might not give him face, so he simply forgot it.

Chen Yu's ability is average, but Chen Yu is from a famous family, and he is one of the few famous children under Yuan Shu. His father, Chen Qiuguan, was a well-known party member. He himself became famous at a young age, raised filial piety, opened the public mansion, and not long ago moved to Lang, worshiping Wu County Taishou, but because Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, he followed Yuan Shu out of Nanyang, so he didn't succeed. Under Yuan Shu, he is the oldest, a few years older than Yuan Shu, and even Yuan Shu has to give him some face. The generals captured the manor, took each family as soldiers, he got the most, there were five or six thousand people under the account, divided into three battalions, one battalion for himself, so that his brother Chen Cong and the old official Chen Mu were captains, each leading a battalion.

But Sun Ce really didn't take him seriously. For this kind of Haoqiang who was born in a famous family, but has no real talent and learning, Sun Ce is neither interested nor interested. Chen Yu has a lot of soldiers, and he has even more soldiers.

Sun Ce didn't see it, Chen Yu was even more angry, and he didn't say hello to Yuan Shu, and walked away.

Yuan Shu discussed with Yan Xiang, sent Cai Mao into the city to negotiate, and then ordered the generals to return to the camp and prepare to enter the city. Sun Ce returned to the camp and wanted to sleep again, but he couldn't sleep anymore.

Cao Cao just ran away?

Pang Shanmin and Pang Tong also felt incredible. They and Sun Ce's opinions are not exactly the same, but one thing is basically close, even if Cao Cao wants to break through, he should hold on for a few days, at least wait until the east gate of the inner city is broken and the defeat is already decided.

"General!" A guard hurriedly walked in, his face pale. "There was an accident at the catapult position, and Miss Huang was injured."

Sun Ce was taken aback, and before he had time to think about it, he picked up Qianjun who was leaning on the head of the bed and rushed out. Pang Shanmin and Pang Tong also followed, and Beidou Feng didn't dare to slack off, so he quickened his pace and chased after him.

Sun Ce rushed out of the camp in one breath and came to the stone throwing position in front of the formation. Zhou Yu was already there, orderly, and the craftsmen were quite calm, but one of the three giant stone throwers was destroyed, and the long pole was broken in two. The two medical craftsmen were bandaging Huang Yueying, and when they saw Sun Ce running, they hurriedly got out of the way.

"What's going on?" Seeing Huang Yueying's arm wrapped in a splint, Sun Ce was distressed and anxious, furious, pulled out a thousand troops, and shouted murderously: "Whose responsibility is it, stand up for me!" ”

"My own responsibility." Huang Yueying's face was pale, her voice was still a little trembling, but there was some indescribable look in her eyes. She stretched out her hand and motioned for Sun Ce to help her. Sun Ce hurriedly handed over Qianjun Po to Beidou Feng, helped Huang Yueying up, and said with concern: "How did you get injured, is it serious?" ”

"Don't get in the way, the tip of the stone thrower broke, I didn't pay attention to my feet when I avoided it, I fell, and my arm was broken. The doctor said that it was not serious, and that he would recover after a period of rest. Huang Yueying grabbed Sun Ce's arm tightly, saying that it was okay, but tears poured out, it seemed that she was scared, but she had been holding back just now. Seeing Sun Ce at this moment, she couldn't help it.

Sun Ce turned his head to look at the healer, his eyes fierce. The healer was startled and hurriedly explained. Seeing that what Huang Yueying said was true, Sun Ce breathed a sigh of relief. The simple fracture is not a big problem, Huang Yueying is the time of the long body, and the recovery is very fast. If it is smashed, it will be troublesome, not to mention the current medical skills, even in the future generations, it is possible to leave a disability.
