After resting in place, Fang sent someone to inquire where he was, but he learned that it was the direction of Qianxia, as if there was a providence in the dark, and according to the time, the current management system should also be coming from Zhuangwu to Qianxia, is it the revelation that God gave me?

"Whew~~!" After Hou Fang let out a breath of air, he looked around, depressed, they couldn't compare with the regular army, and now they fled in a hurry, and the armor, armor, banners, and baggage were discarded early, and the sad appearance could still achieve the purpose of attracting the enemy army?

If morale is high, there is nothing to worry about luring the enemy over, but in this situation, if you are not careful, it is entirely possible that the attraction will turn into a rout.

Hou Fang sighed lightly and shook his head gloomily. The current situation is too passive for him, or it can be said that even he himself has become a frightened bird at the moment, although he has some ideas, but he does not dare to make a decision as before, but as soon as he has such and such concerns, good decisions have come to naught.

~~~~~~~~~~~

Liu Lan, who was in Xuzhou City to have an overview of the overall situation, was woken up by Xu Shu early in the morning, and when he saw him holding a letterbox in his hand, Liu Lan immediately asked: "Where did the flying pigeon come from?" What happened? ”

"It's an urgent report from Pei County."

Xu Shu quickly handed the letterbox to Liu Lan's hands, the content on it will be browsed first under normal circumstances, if it is really an emergency, it will be presented to himself as soon as possible, so at the moment when Xu Shu appeared with the letterbox, he already had an ominous omen in his heart, took the letterbox, and shook out a piece of silk cloth from it, a few words could not be written on the small silk cloth, but a few big characters of the catapult were particularly eye-catching.

The catapult that can make Chen Gong not have any ability to resist, the first thing Liu Lan thought of was Liu Ye's thunderbolt, but in his memory, Liu Ye and his thunderbolt first appeared in the battle of Guandu, but he didn't expect the thunderbolt to be more than two years early.

He began to worry about Pei County, if it developed normally according to Chen Gong's plan, then Cao Cao would definitely be defeated, but all this became a luxury because of the appearance of the Thunderbolt Car, the Pei County garrison was only 20,000 people, and in the face of the large-scale attack of more than 100,000 people in the Cao Army, it was really beyond his expectations to have this point today, but with the appearance of the Thunderbolt Car, a siege battle almost turned into a one-sided massacre, and a large number of soldiers died.

Liu Lan sighed deeply, he could imagine how tragic the battle in Pei County was at this moment, he instantly thought of Zhao Yun, at this time such a grim situation, the only one who could help Chen Gong was Zhao Zilong, who had already gone to Pei County again, although the order he gave Zhao Yun was to assist him in safely withdrawing to Xuzhou when Chen Gong was absolutely evacuated, but the current situation may have to change.

Because in front of him, there is a thunderbolt Cao army, even the Peixian water conservancy city wall can not stop them, Xuzhou City is even more hopeless, that is to say, he formulated at the beginning to stick to Xuzhou, was blocked Jizhou strategy completely nullified, once Xuzhou is attacked, he must send troops back with all his strength, must not let Xuzhou lose, otherwise the back road of the Langya army will be cut off by Cao Cao, and his main force will be besieged by Cao Cao Yuan Shao's troops in Langya.

He could imagine how bad the situation would be at that time, so Liu Lan knew that he had to make a decision now, he quickly found the map, stared at the map and pondered for a while, and then quickly marked a few directions in a circle above the map, and then decisively ordered Xu Shu: "Immediately send an order to Langya in the dual way of flying pigeons and fast horses, ordering Guan Yu to lead his main force to withdraw to Xuzhou and garrison in Tan County, and at the same time order Zang Ba to lead his Qingzhou army to retreat to Jiqiu County for garrison, leaving only Xu Fang to guard Kaiyang, once the Jizhou army comes." , there is no need to fight, just retreat to Jiqiu County.

Although the location of Tan County is not important, but Guan Yu again, he will be calm in advance and retreat, and even if Cao Cao really comes to attack Xuzhou City, he can also retreat to Tan County, and Langya's situation is the same as him here, his current deployment is to use Tan County as a transit, and he can keep the rules, but he can't retreat.

And there is also a key is that Tan County is the county where Tao Qian was ready to abandon Xuzhou City and want to flee, and in history, Tao Qian and Liu Bei have been fighting with Cao Cao here, and finally withdrew because of Lu Bu, and in this time and space, because of Liu Lan's relationship, Tao Qian did not flee to Tan County, but Liu Lan chose to choose to go on the map, and finally made such a decision, this is the only place where Langya and Xuzhou City can be taken into account on both sides, and there is no need to worry about being cut off from the back road, which can be described as attacking and retreating. It's the best choice right now.

And after making such a decision, Liu Lan issued a second order, which was for Zhang Fei, that is, no matter what, he should drag the Jizhou army in Donglai as much as possible, as long as he can contain Yuan Jun in Donglai, then Xuzhou is absolutely safe here, even if Cao Cao has a thunderbolt, it doesn't matter, he can calmly command the Setshan camp to deal with Cao Cao, and don't need to pay attention to Yuan Shao.

Even if Yuan Shao went south during this period, the grain passes he set up in Kaesong and Jiqiu would help him hold back the enemy for a while, and then he could make a decision to retreat or continue to attack according to the current situation.

And in Pei County's order, Liu Lan needs to think carefully. This time is different from the past, if Chen Gong is withdrawn now, once Cao Cao comes in a big way, his current deployments will be meaningless, that is to say, Chen Gong needs to block Cao Cao in Peixian for at least half a month, and even if he withdraws, he will let Zhao Yun cover to ensure that the troops can calmly return to Xuzhou.

Liu Lan asked Xu Shu to tell Chen Gong and Zhao Yun about his decision, and after he left, one order after another was passed on as quickly as possible.

Almost in one day, from Peixian to Kaesong, it was completely chaotic, and the generals of Kaesong did not understand, they had put so much effort into Kaesong, building an almost invulnerable fortress, but they didn't fight a battle, so they had to give up like this? Xu Fang, Zang Ba, and even some generals under Huang Zhong and Guan Yu came.

They didn't coordinate and connect this matter in private, it was all to express their demands at the moment, but they didn't expect it to appear at the same time, as if it had been discussed, seeing that this group of generals came to see him one after another, Guan Yu summoned them all to the conference hall: "Let's talk about it, why are you here!" ”

Guan Yu closed his eyes, and he couldn't tell whether the mood was good or bad, Xu Fang, who was the most excited in Qingxu, immediately came to the bottom of the steps, bowed to Guan Yu, and said: "General, you are confused, you can't abandon the city, you should fight with reason, how can you just accept the lord's order!" ”

Guan Yu squinted, looked at their expectant and even pleading eyes, shook his head, and said, "How do you know that I don't?" Danfeng's eyes suddenly widened: "I am the main general of Langya, of course I know whether Langya City can hold it, and the lord who transferred me naturally understands, but why did he suddenly make the decision to withdraw the troops south, don't you still think of what the reason is, don't you have to wait until Pei County is lost, and then we can't withdraw?" Let's tell you this, we are retreating now for the sake of the overall situation, and we are taking precautions!

If you disobey the lord's order now, have you ever thought about how bad the situation will be then, Peixian is not guaranteed, Xuzhou City is not guaranteed, Pengcheng is not guaranteed, when you hear these news, what do you say Yuan Shao will do?

We have become people's chopping board fish meat, can not withdraw, can not attack, not to mention that Langya now has nearly 80,000 people, even if it is doubled, it will not help, a trapped beast, but if we withdraw it, Xuzhou is in difficulty, then you can send troops to support, Langya can go north to rescue, but the initiative is back in our hands, so the south retreat to Tan County will let us grasp the initiative again, this is a strategic concession, whether you understand or not, don't delay any longer, as soon as possible to listen to the order to retreat! ”

Everyone retreated silently, their eyes were only staring at Yuan Shao, but they ignored Cao Cao, and even ignored the current situation in Peixian, although there has been no big movement over there, but from Fang Cai Guan Yu's words, it was revealed that the situation in Peixian was extremely critical.

We shouldn't have come. Many generals thought so in their hearts at the moment they withdrew from the council hall, this was simply adding fuel to the fire and making trouble for General Guan.

And the same situation also appeared in Peixian, Chen Gong finally did not make the decision to send Xu Sheng to attack, and coerced Taishan to surpass Beihai, not because he couldn't but didn't dare.

Chen Gong knew Cao Cao, at this time he wished he took the initiative to kill it, his pockets had been laid out for him early in the morning, if he killed it like this, he dared to guarantee that everyone would go and never return, in this case, he could only order the troops to withdraw to the middle city and give up the defense of the outer city.

And after they decisively abandoned the outer city, Cao Cao's attack suddenly quieted down, and he did not even come to occupy the outer city, so after a peaceful day, early the next morning, when the troops were waiting in the middle city, they found that Cao's army still had no intention of continuing the attack.

Yesterday was completely anxious to capture Peixian, but at this moment Cao Cao showed that he was not in a hurry to attack, for such a situation, Chen Gong's mood would not be like that of the soldiers, because he knew too well that this was not good news, Cao Cao must be planning something.

The answer was soon revealed, a section of the outer city wall was destroyed, which became the best stone for trebuchets, and in the void of the demolished towers, rows of trebuchets were pushed into the outer city.

If this is the case, Chen Gong saw hope, in such a dense space as the outer city, the trebuchet is like a swimming fish out of the water, there is nowhere to hide, if it is attacked at this time, it is bound to be able to destroy all the trebuchets, but at the moment when Chen Gong gave the order, he suddenly found that the Cao army began to disperse, and all the buildings inside and outside the outer city were demolished and razed to the ground.

There are even some troops camped directly in the outer city, Cao Cao camped inside and outside the outer city, each other is horns, and the trebuchet has become safer, with heavy guards, so that his idea of destroying the trebuchet has once again failed, in fact, it is not surprising at all, this is Cao Cao's style, if he does not do these deployments, but there will be cattle.

We have become people's chopping board fish meat, can not withdraw, can not attack, not to mention that Langya now has nearly 80,000 people, even if it is doubled, it will not help, a trapped beast, but if we withdraw it, Xuzhou is in difficulty, then you can send troops to support, Langya can go north to rescue, but the initiative is back in our hands, so the south retreat to Tan County will let us grasp the initiative again, this is a strategic concession, whether you understand or not, don't delay any longer, as soon as possible to listen to the order to retreat! ”
