Chapter 1586: The Battle of Xuzhou (183)

The carrier pigeon sent to Zhao Yun allowed Zhao Yun to send back the news of him in Pei County and Pei County as soon as possible, after watching the content of the carrier pigeon, Liu Lan said the content of a few words, Xu Shu on the side was a little anxious, your lord, your order is to let Zilong assist Chen Gong to evacuate, do you really want to ignore Pei County according to the plan of the public platform?

Liu Lan walked to a palace lamp and burned the contents of the carrier pigeon before saying: "Chen Gong is also helpless, Cao Cao besieged the city and did not fight, obviously to lead Zilong to take the bait, not to mention that Chen Gong told Zilong not to rescue early in the morning, even if he didn't tell him, Zilong probably wouldn't dare to support Peixian, let alone us, knowing that it was a bottomless pit, do you want to let the dragoon army die with the defenders of Peixian?"

Liu Lan sighed and closed his eyes: "Actually, I understand, Zilong's meaning of the flying pigeon is that he wants to work hard one last time, as long as I am willing to decree, he will ignore the danger, but the Pei County Army is my sons, isn't the Dragoon Army?" Genzhi, sometimes you have to make a trade-off. ”

Zhao Yun wanted to go, and knew that he would definitely die after he went, but he had to give an explanation to the civil and military generals in Peixian County, but he was a minister after all, no matter how he ignored this matter, Liu Lan would punish him at most, and it could be regarded as an explanation to the soldiers and civilians of Peixian County to appease people's hearts.

But if he really goes on an adventure, he will never get any reward, and even if he is lucky enough to come back alive, he will definitely be severely punished, so this matter Zhao Yun passed on the book to Liu Lan itself is a decision after a hot head, fortunately, Liu Lan is alone by Xu Shu, otherwise this will not make Liu Lan in a dilemma, what can he do when the time comes?

Should he be saved, or should he not be saved? So Liu Lan not only showed Xu Shu the content of the letter, but even burned the letter as soon as possible, as if he didn't know anything. At this moment he can only do this, and he must do this.

Now Liu Lan is no longer as good as he was back then, he must think about the overall situation, this is a decision that there is no way, just like Chen Gong, in fact, it is also from the overall situation that Zhao Yun must not support Pei County, maybe Pei County will be ruined in the end, but is this decision wrong?

Liu Lan returned to his seat, what is the outcome of Peixian, pinned on Chen Gong alone, and insisted on blocking Cao Cao from going to Xuzhou City for fifteen days, it depends on Zilong, which of the two things is extremely difficult, Liu Lan is really headache now.

~~~~~~~~

On the afternoon of the second day of Cao's siege, because of receiving Cao Cao's order, Cao's army suddenly quieted down and rested for tomorrow's siege, but such an unusual move was bound to attract the attention of the defenders of Peixian, and the defender Zhang Fan immediately sent someone to inform Chen Gong, and of course Zhang Liao.

After hearing the news, Chen Gong hurried over, and Zhang Liao and Xu Sheng also appeared shortly after he arrived at the city tower, and the three of them climbed the city tower surrounded by hundreds of soldiers, and there were few Cao troops left in the city, but they all looked idle, but the three of them knew that this was to lure them, if they really thought they were defenseless and killed out, it was a sheep into the tiger's mouth.

Outside the outer city, Chen Gong believed that Cao Cao's main force must be in a strict position, and with Cao Cao's ability to command the army, how could the soldiers under his account be like a rabble, even if they attacked the Cao army three times in a row, the most serious degree of chaos was the Shouchun army, and the situation of the Cao army was much better, if it wasn't for the chaos caused by the Shouchun army, the two sides would kill each other, maybe they really couldn't get the good results before.

Chen Gong waited and watched, in fact, he couldn't see anything at all, and he couldn't see what was going on in the Cao camp in the outer city, the current Cao army had all moved to the periphery of Pei County from more than ten miles away, and he hesitated about the loss of the outer city, even if Chen Gong wanted to sneak attack, he didn't have that much courage.

But he really couldn't see anything, which made his mind heavier than Zhang Xu and the others, who were a little more relaxed, his brows furrowed, and Cao Jun suddenly stopped attacking, what is the situation? I began to think about Cao Cao's intention to do this, was Zilong fooled or Cao Cao couldn't help but attack in a big way?

There is no other possibility in the current situation except for the first two items, it is easy to guess but it is difficult to deal with it, especially he is really afraid that Zilong will come over regardless of support, although it has been two days, but until the dust finally settles, he is always uneasy in his heart.

The time soon came to the evening, Cao Cao began to routinely patrol the camp, this is a habit that Cao Cao developed after being attacked three times in a row, every time before going to sleep, if he does not personally investigate the defense of the camp, he will never sleep peacefully, after a round of inspection, after seeing that the village is up and down foolproof, then return to the main tent to prepare to rest, but at this time, Cheng Yu hurriedly came to visit.

"What is the important thing that happened to Zhongde so late?" Cao Cao had already taken off his armor and boots, and met Cheng Yu in his underwear and asked.

After giving the ceremony, Cheng Yuyu said: "Our scouts came from Langya to send news, Langya's Xuzhou army had a change, and the Setshan battalion left the camp a few days ago, all the way south, the destination is unknown, I don't know where to go, and on the third day after the departure of the Setshan battalion, Zang Ba's Qingzhou army also pulled out the camp and left, still going south. ”

"The Setshan camp, the Qingzhou army has withdrawn from Kaesong?" Cao Cao's brows furrowed, such a large-scale transfer must have been Liu Lan's idea, what was he going to do?

"Gong Cao, will you come at us again?" Cheng Yu said cautiously.

"Then this Liu Lan is the number one stupid pig in the world." Cao Cao sneered and said: "The Setshan camp is in Langya, although it was defeated by Yan Liang, but it did not defeat the Jizhou army in one fell swoop, and came to Pei County instead, and held on to me for several months, but because of Yuan Shao's comeback, he went north to Langya, and now Pei County is in danger, and he has transferred troops south, if he is really coming at us, such a stupid opponent, what is there to fear?" ”

Cao Cao and Liu Lan and even his wife have been close friends for many years, and now they are opponents, and they can be said to be very deep for him, how can I see Liu Lan so repeatedly, so this kind of thing is expected not to be the result of his indecisiveness, but for another reason, so Cheng Yu's speculation can be completely ignored, but he really can't think of what Liu Lan's real purpose is, but Cheng Yu's guess is the most likely, but it is also a little uncertain for a while.

Cao Cao thought for a long time, and shouted to the outside: "Who is on duty tonight?" ”

"What does the lord command?" Dian Wei's voice sounded outside the tent.

"Chuan Feng Xiao comes."

"No."

After a while, Guo Jia came with Dian Wei, rushed to the front of the camp, hurriedly straightened his clothes, and then entered the account, after seeing the ceremony, Cao Cao roughly said the news about Langya, and said: "I don't know what Feng Xiao thinks Liu Lan's intention is?" ”

Guo Jia thought about it, and the smile that was still hanging on the corner of his mouth before instantly froze: "Cao Gong, I think Liu Lan is afraid that we will take Peixian County and take Xuzhou directly, and copy his back road, he just in case, he transferred the main force to the south, so what Zhong De said is true, he is coming at us, but I expect Liu Lan to have another purpose, that is, once Yuan Shao takes advantage of the situation to go south......"

"What does Feng Xiao mean is that Liu Lan's move is to defend against me, and the second is to run?"

"Exactly." After Guo Jia finished speaking, he suddenly looked in the direction of Pei County, with a look of awakening: "No wonder that Zhao Yun didn't care about Pei County, but went to sneak attack our army's grain road, I think the purpose of his appearance is not to support Pei County, but to prevent our army from successfully reaching Xuzhou City!" ”

After Guo Jia's analysis, Cheng Yu was completely understood, and then spoke up, saying: "What Feng Xiao said is good, Zhao Yun is here to delay our army, and the life or death of Pei County does not matter at all, if our army is dragged for a long time because of Pei County, it will be more beneficial to him, if our army has been dragged in Pei County, then Liu Lan can be completely relaxed, after all, he has carrier pigeons in his hands, and the news is too fast." ”

For the matter of carrier pigeons, Cao Cao also knew about it early on, and even set up such a communication force for this purpose, but unfortunately in the cultivation of carrier pigeons, there has been no progress, counting on carrier pigeons to deliver letters, it seems that there is nothing possible for the time being, although nothing has been gained, but he has already passed down the order, as long as the archers find pigeons, they will be shot, and in Xudu, they are also beginning to find Liu Lan's work by looking for carrier pigeons, not to mention that the effect is really good.

But he really couldn't see anything, which made his mind heavier than Zhang Xu and the others, who were a little more relaxed, his brows furrowed, and Cao Jun suddenly stopped attacking, what is the situation? I began to think about Cao Cao's intention to do this, was Zilong fooled or Cao Cao couldn't help but attack in a big way?
