"Bell! Clang! ……”

Outside the city tower, a gong sounded.

The soldiers of the Cao army, who were besieging the city, immediately turned around and retreated when they heard the sound of the gong. Under the castle tower, the soldiers who were besieging the city also immediately retreated and withdrew in the direction of the main army.

In an instant, countless Cao troops retreated like a tide.

"Wheels! Wheel! ”

The catapults quickly turned around and withdrew, and all the Cao troops retreated.

The sudden Zhao scene made Zhao Yun, Huang Xu, Yan Yan and Pei Yuanshao have suspicious expressions in their eyes, and they don't understand what the hell Cao Cao is doing? Because Cao Cao withdrew too simply, it can even be said that it was just a false shot, and there was a suspicion of fraud, which made people have to be suspicious.

Zhao Yun quickly ran to Guo Jia's side and asked, "Mr. Guo, are we chasing?" ”

Guo Jia shook his head and said: "If Cao Cao wants to withdraw his troops, let him withdraw his troops, no matter what conspiracy Cao Cao has, as long as I hold Hangu Pass, I will not fall into a crisis." ”

Pei Yuanshao walked over and said, "Mr. Guo, if we stay in Hangu Pass and don't take the initiative to attack, won't we have to be in a stalemate with Cao Cao forever." We have been guarding the Hangu Pass, there are always times when we make mistakes, rather than this, it is better to kill out immediately, overthrow all the Cao army, and lay the victory. ”

Before Guo Jia could speak, Xun You said: "General Pei, Cao Cao is very cunning, and there are many civil and military officials under his command, among which there are many extremely resourceful talents, and it is not easy to defeat Cao Cao. That Yuan Shao is indecisive, Yuan Shu thinks very highly of himself, and Lu Bu is arrogant and arrogant, all of which have great weaknesses and are easy to defeat. As long as we keep the Hangu Pass and firmly control the Hangu Pass in our hands, it is the greatest support for the lord. ”

Pei Yuanshao nodded and didn't speak.

At this time, Cao Cao attacked and withdrew his troops directly.

Xun You and Guo Jia ordered not to pursue, so that Cao Cao was calm when he withdrew, and did not encounter any attacks.

On the tower of the city, the soldiers guarding the gate are cleaning up the battlefield and cleaning the corpses on the tower of the Hangu Pass. After some cleanup, the bodies of the Cao soldiers were all burned and not buried.

By the afternoon, Cao Cao had been evacuated for most of the day.

At this time, Wang Yue had already sent the news of Yuan Shao's defeat.

After Guo Jia and Xun You got the news, Guo Jia's face kept changing, and he said, "Gongda, Cao Cao has withdrawn his troops!" In the tone, there was a sudden relaxation of relaxation, and a wordless loss.

They guarded Hangu Pass and wanted to ensure the safety of Hangu Pass. Now that Cao Cao took the initiative to withdraw his troops and leave, the big stone that pressed on Guo Jia's heart finally fell to the ground, and he didn't have to be attacked by Cao Cao. However, Cao Cao's army took the initiative to retreat, which was a great opportunity to pursue Cao's army, they gave up the pursuit and missed the opportunity to pursue Cao Cao, so Guo Jia felt a little lost in his heart.

Xun You smiled and said: "Fengxiao, the news has not yet been confirmed, let's talk about it after the news comes." ”

Guo Jia nodded, and immediately left the loss in his heart behind.

The two talked and laughed, discussing how to deal with it?

About half an hour later, there was a sound of footsteps outside the hall, and Zhao Yun, Yan Yan, Huang Xu, and Pei Yuanshao walked in together, with eager expressions on their faces.

Zhao Yun bowed to Guo Jia and Xun You to show respect, then lifted up his robe and sat down, and said with a straight face: "The news from the scouts has confirmed that Cao Cao withdrew his troops and left, and Cao Cao's camp is empty. The scouts continued to track and found that Cao Cao's army had withdrawn and was on its way back to Yanzhou. ”

Guo Jia and Xun You looked at each other, and the expressions on their faces did not change.

Huang Xu saw that Guo Jia and Xun You didn't look surprised, and asked, "Two gentlemen, do you know the news?" ”

Xun You smiled and said, "I've guessed it!" ”

Huang Xu then asked, "In that case, what should we do, do we sit back and watch Cao Cao withdraw to Yanzhou?" ”

Guo Jia replied: "Although Cao Cao withdrew his troops, we will stay at Hangu Pass for the time being and observe for a period of time to ensure the safety of Hangu Pass. After the situation at Hangu Pass has stabilized, we will lead our troops back. ”

When Zhao Yun and the others heard this, they had to agree.

……

West of Chang'an, twenty miles away from Xinfeng County.

After Ma Teng and Han Sui's army converged, they began to kill Chang'an non-stop, wanting to catch Wang Can off guard from behind Chang'an, after all, Jia Xu and Li Ru dealt with Yuan Shao, and Guo Jia and Xun You Cao Cao, plus Wang Can personally led the troops to resist Yuan Shu and Lu Bu. With such a pattern, the hinterland of Guanzhong must be empty, so Han Sui and Ma Teng rushed to Chang'an non-stop, thinking of attacking Chang'an, taking the land of Guanzhong, and occupying the lead.

The most important thing is that as long as Ma Teng and Han Sui take Chang'an, they can go north and attack Li Ru and Jia Xu with Yuan Shao, and go east to attack Xun You and Guo Jia with Cao Cao.

Defeating these two armies is the most critical part of this battle.

However, when Ma Teng and Han Sui led their troops to Xinfeng County, they got the news that Yuan Shao had been defeated, and after Yuan Shao was defeated, he had already led the army to retreat to Jizhou. The news of Yuan Shao's withdrawal of his troops surprised Ma Teng and Han Sui for a while, and the army's morale fluctuated, so the army stopped.

The army set up camp and then stopped to recuperate.

The big tent of the Chinese army, Ma Teng and Han Sui sat on top of the big tent.

Below, there were Ma Chao, Ma Tie, Ma Dai and Yan Xing and others, and the matter that everyone discussed in the big tent was naturally about Yuan Shao's withdrawal of troops. Han Sui's eyes flickered, looked at Ma Teng and said: "Brother, after Yuan Shao's defeat and retreat, Cao Cao is already alone, and Cao Cao is blocked out of the pass, this victory is difficult to decide!" ”

These words, in fact, Han Sui retreated.

Ma Chao said loudly: "Uncle, the little nephew thinks that this is the time to attack Chang'an, while the army of Jia Xu and Li Ru is still in Zuo Fengyi, and we quickly conquer Chang'an, and then divide the troops to Hangu Pass, and Cao Cao together to attack Guo Jia and Xun You, so internal and external attack, Guo Jia and Xun Yu garrisoned Hangu Pass is not self-defeating, and when Cao Cao leads the troops into Chang'an, our army will converge and then destroy Jia Xu and Li Ru, isn't it easy." ”

Han Sui is scheming, but he is extremely cautious in doing things.

When he heard the news of Yuan Shao's retreat, he had no intention of staying.

However, Ma Teng is nominally his sworn brother, and the two have agreed to send troops to Chang'an, if they withdraw their troops immediately, it will definitely make Ma Teng feel guilty.

Ma Teng persuaded bitterly: "Wenyue, Chang'an is in front of you, fame and fortune are also at your fingertips, do you want to give up the great opportunity?" Wenyue, go ahead and march. ”

Han Sui hesitated, a hesitant look on his face.

Seeing this, Yan Xing persuaded him: "Lord, let's rush to Chang'an first." Although Yan Xing knew Han Sui's thoughts, he thought about it carefully and felt that he should lead his troops to attack Chang'an, because not only Cao Cao attacked Wang Can, but also Yuan Shu and Lu Bu attacked Wang Can, and with so many people attacking Wang Can, there was still a lot to do.

Moreover, although Yuan Shao retreated, Yuan Shao's foundation was in Jizhou, and even if he was defeated, he would not hurt his muscles and bones. After Yuan Shao returned to Jizhou, if Yuan Shao saw that Cao Cao, Han Sui and Ma Teng had won, it was still possible to make a comeback, so Yan Xing suggested that Han Sui enter the army and see the situation first.

After Han Sui heard this, he still agreed.

Ma Teng saw Han Sui's response, and his heart immediately relaxed, as long as Han Sui was persuaded and Han Sui was firm in his idea of attacking Chang'an, the army could continue to advance and rush to Chang'an.

The army continued to hurry, but after only a day's walk, the news of Cao Cao's withdrawal came.

At this time, not only did Han Sui firmly not attack Chang'an, but even Ma Teng had no idea of continuing to march in his heart, and he didn't understand how Cao Cao could withdraw his troops? After all, Yuan Shao's withdrawal was due to the defeat of the army, but Cao Cao did not suffer a defeat, but withdrew his army for no reason, which made Ma Teng puzzled.

He was puzzled, but he couldn't continue to attack Chang'an.

Without Yuan Shao and Cao Cao to contain Wang Can's army, they would not have been able to make waves at all. Han Sui led the troops back to Longxi, and Ma Teng's family also led the troops back to Youfufeng.

As a result, the tense war situation in the north suddenly calmed down.

Yuan Shao withdrew, Cao Cao withdrew, Han Sui and Ma Teng withdrew, and the coalition forces in the north collapsed.
