After a short period of weighing, Zhang Xun took the lead in tearing off the reserved disguise and snatching a group of three. Anyway, it's 10,000 a day, of course, more people are better.

Some people took the lead, and others were not polite, Chen Yu, Liu Shen, and Li Feng each grabbed a group of people, and happily led the people of the headquarters to leave the camp and rush to the destination. Time is money, one more manor is one more income, with Sun Ce's example in front, no one wants to fall behind.

Yuan Shu was very satisfied, took Zhou Yu's hand, and asked him to thank Sun Ce, and at the same time hoped that Sun Ce would seize the time and train some more craftsmen. He also asked Zhou Yu to tell Sun Ce that the four generals would act separately, and Haoqiang near Nanyang would soon be resolved, hoping that Sun Ce could rush to Wancheng as soon as possible and participate in the final attack.

Zhou Yu agreed one by one, rushed back to the He family's manor, and reported to Sun Ce.

Sun Ce was very surprised, Yuan Shu just agreed?

Zhou Yu also felt incredible. Sun Ce sent him, originally because he was worried that Yuan Shu would oppose it, the Zhou family had a deep relationship with the Yuan family, and he himself had a deep knowledge of Yuan Shu, so he could come forward to persuade Yuan Shu, but he didn't expect Yuan Shu to be persuaded at all, and he agreed more happily than anyone else. The two discussed for a long time, and felt that Yuan Shu was forced to be anxious by those people, and he cooperated so well to solve Yuan Shu's urgent need, and Yuan Shu didn't care about those small problems.

"General Hou...... still does not lose the true character of a light man. Zhou Yu finally came to a conclusion.

Sun Ce didn't say anything, but he also felt this way. Although Qingxia also has a chivalrous character, the chivalrous impression of the Han Dynasty is not a good word. Chivalry, sandwiching people, is the meaning of ruthlessness. Light does not mean light work, but refers to lightness, action is not steady enough, in short, it is not a good word. Yuan Shu perfectly interprets the word light man, frivolous and arrogant, but from another point of view, he is somewhat chivalrous - if the words relayed by Cai Mao are true, Yuan Shu really feels that it is not righteous to do so, and he is even embarrassed to tell him in person.

"Prepare to move the camp, don't let Cao Cao run away at the last moment."

Zhou Yu nodded again and again.

Sun Ce immediately recalled Huang Zhong and Dong Yu, and the army moved to Wancheng. For more than half a month, in addition to breaking the He family's manor, Sun Ce also broke through seven or eight powerful people of all sizes, such as Xu You's family and He Hao's family, and there were no well-known tycoons. One is because the time is too tight, and the other is because Sun Ce has limited troops and does not want to fight tiredly. Nevertheless, he gained a lot of gains, and the number of real warriors alone increased to four thousand, and all of them were young and strong.

In several battles, Deng Zhan took the lead every time and accumulated the most merits. He no longer mentioned leaving, and upon Huang Zhong's recommendation, Sun Ce appointed him as a lieutenant and led a battalion, alongside Huang Zhong and Dong Yu. The subordinates under his command are mainly the various tribes of Xinna, and they are not weak in terms of personal martial arts, and their formation coordination and loyalty are slightly inferior, and they still need to be tempered in actual combat.

Came to Wancheng and was camping, Sun Ce didn't have time to meet Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu came to his camp first, and only brought more than ten personal guard knights such as Chang Nu with him. He walked around Sun Ce's camp and finally waved his hand, his face full of disdain.

"Compared to you, those people are all rubbish, and they don't know how to lead troops at all."

Sun Ce was embarrassed. Although he is telling the truth, it is not good to be so direct, and it will cause unnecessary contradictions when it reaches the ears of others.

"Soldiers are elite soldiers, but the number is too small." Yuan Shu crossed his waist and paced back and forth twice. "The people you brought from Xiangyang are still under your command, and there are two thousand Changsha soldiers on the way, who can arrive in three or five days at most, and give it to you, train them well, and then it will be up to you to attack the city. Those wastes can't be counted on, it's so hard to build a manor, and even more so can't be counted on Wancheng. ”

Sun Ce heard the implication of the words, it seemed that Zhang Xun, Chen Yu and others did not attack the manor smoothly. It's just that the person he sent out to inspect has not yet returned, and he only knows that there is nothing wrong with the seconded craftsman, but he doesn't know more details.

"General, is there any problem, is it not good to use the stone thrower?"

"Works. The stone thrower is easy to use, and those carpenters are so useful. Yuan Shu got up excitedly, and his thick eyebrows raised to fly. Bo Fu, Gong Jin, you hurry up, build more stone throwers, and then take Wancheng in one go. It would be better if I could crush that dwarf to death. ”

Zhou Yu smiled bitterly: "General, no matter how powerful the stone thrower is, it is difficult to shake the city wall. Even if you can, you can't fight like this, Wancheng is broken, where does the general live? Repairing the city is a large expense, and the New Year is approaching, and at this time, it is easy to cause unease when the people are requisitioned to repair the city. At the end of the first month, spring ploughing will soon be required, and it is not appropriate to levy a large number of them. ”

Yuan Shu rolled his eyes, waking up like a dream. "That's the reason, but in this way, how can you take Wancheng?"

"It's best to persuade you to surrender, and the soldiers are not bloody. If it is really not possible, the main thing is to storm the city gate and avoid large-scale destruction as much as possible. ”

"Let the dwarf go?"

"General, Cao Cao really wants to leave, I'm afraid we can't stop it. With the current strength, even if reinforcements from Nanjun and Jiangxia counties arrived, they would not be able to besiege Wancheng thoroughly. ”

Yuan Shu's eyebrows drooped down and he sighed. "yes, there are still not enough troops. If I had 100,000 soldiers and surrounded Wancheng three times, I would definitely be able to catch this dwarf. ”

Sun Ce suddenly said: "Although it is difficult to kill Cao Cao, it is not completely impossible. ”

Yuan Shu's eyes lit up. "How to kill?"

"Cao Cao's departure from Nanyang is nothing more than a few roads, he has cavalry, and we can't catch up, but all he can take is those roads. If we wait for him in advance, we may not be able to succeed. ”

Yuan Shu slapped his palms vigorously, and a smile bloomed from the corner of his eyes, and he laughed loudly. He patted Sun Ce the shoulder.

"I like this trick, it's ruthless! This is like what I should be doing. ”

——

Wancheng, Cao Cao suddenly shuddered, and the pen in his hand fell on the case with a snap.

Looking at the ink, Cao Cao didn't move, only after a while took a deep breath, slowly spit it out, pressed his hands on the side of the desk, slowly got up, and stopped halfway through, like a bow ready to fire, and like a beast smelling danger.

"Father......" Cao Ang on the sickbed sat up and looked at Cao Cao with concern. What happened to you? ”

Cao Cao turned around and saw Cao Ang sitting up, as if he had suddenly come to life, and walked to the couch with an arrow step. "Zixiu, why are you up, lie down quickly, don't tear the wound."

"Father, it's okay, I'm much better." Cao Ang smiled: "Father, what's wrong with you, is it that Yuan Highway has started to attack the city?" ”

Cao Cao didn't speak, helped Cao Ang, asked him to sit down, untied the cloth wrapped around his chest, and looked at the wound. The wound has healed and new pink flesh has grown. Cao Cao was overjoyed, put his ear to Cao Ang's chest, and listened carefully. Cao Ang's heart was beating hard in his body. Cao Cao said happily: "Zhang Bozu is worthy of being a famous doctor in Nanyang, and he has some means. Zixiu, you are really fateful, Zhang Bozu said that this arrow will go deeper and pierce the heart, even if Bian Que is reincarnated, it will not be able to save you. Haha, if you don't die, there will be blessings, and you will be able to revitalize the Cao family in the future. ”

"Thank you, father."

Cao Cao stared at Cao Ang for a long time, and suddenly said, "Zixiu, can you ride a horse now?" ”
