Chapter 1008: Set fire to the city
Fight like Kilkenny cats!
All of them are dead, and the battle is naturally over.
This poisoner is really a poisoner, and his plan makes people's hairs explode.
Cheng Yu and Xun You both screamed, they would never dare to come up with such an idea.
Such an idea is hurtful and vicious.
If this news is known by the soldiers and all the soldiers, then it may cause a crisis.
Cao Cao did not express his position, but closed his eyes.
Cao Cao was also in pain.
His turf is tight across the board, and it is very difficult.
Jia Xu didn't speak after paying attention, he could come up with ideas, but the decision had to be Cao Cao.
Cheng Yu and Xun Yu also did not express their position, this matter is very important, it is related to hundreds of thousands of troops.
"Ugh." After a long time, Cao Cao sighed and said, "Is there no way?" ”
After being silent for a long time, Cheng Yu said: "It's not that there is no way, but there is no time, and the entire territory does not have enough ability to resist pressure." ”
Cao Cao also figured it out, there will always be a way to take it slowly, but the entire territory is already overwhelmed.
If the besieged army is decisively abandoned, the two sides will not be able to fight, and the battle will naturally be able to stop, and they will have enough time to resolve it.
It's not a good decision.
If they are not done well, then they are very dangerous.
"Okay, you can help me refine the plan, and this plan won't get out."
If this news spreads, this Jia Xu probably won't survive, and even Cao Cao won't be able to protect him.
But it is possible to operate secretly.
"Send a henchman, bring a token, and tell the two Cao generals that the city gate was deliberately lost, an ambush was laid, and the city was burned with fire." Jia Xu said simply.
The city was burned, and there were still many people in it, and when the time came, they would really die together.
Jia Xu said again: "The charge of burning the city can be borne by Zhang Yu, as long as the news is not leaked, naturally most people believe us." ”
Cao Cao quickly made up his mind.
To trick the enemy in, it is naturally not easy.
However, there is still a way for the three of them to sum up.
After discussing for about an hour, all the details were perfected, and then Cao Cao sent someone to make arrangements.
arranged for a henchman around him to go under the protection of a team of 2,000 soldiers.
The attack on Ling Cao's side continued, and the number of soldiers and horses increased a lot.
Cao Cao's messenger entered the city at a great cost and met Cao Chun and Cao Xiu.
"Two generals, the prime minister has an order, and you need to talk to the two generals separately." The person who came said.
Cao Chun and Cao Xiu glanced at each other, then led the person into the study, and at the same time ordered that no one should approach.
The three of them entered the study, and Cao Chun asked, "What is the prime minister's order?" ”
The messenger took out the token and said, "This is the prime minister's belongings, because what is said cannot be written down, but can only be conveyed orally." ”
The two nodded and understood that things that were too confidential were easy to be intercepted by the enemy.
The messenger said, "The prime minister wants you to burn the city and die together, and then the camera will withdraw..."
The messenger elaborated on the plan.
"This, how is it possible..."
"Is it true, hundreds of thousands of troops, and hundreds of thousands of people."
Cao Chun and Cao Xiu couldn't believe it for a long time.
It's crazy.
Cao Chun and Cao Xiu wanted to ask something, but the envoy obviously didn't know anything, just to convey orders, and he didn't dare to know too much.
Even so, the envoy knew in his heart that it would be difficult to have a good outcome, and even if he did not die in the city, he might be eliminated when he returned.
Cao Chun and Cao Xiu really have mixed feelings.
But the two of them are members of the Cao family, so naturally they will not question Cao Cao's decision.
Cao Cao dared to use this strategy because the guards in the city were Cao Chun and Cao Xiu.
But this incident is also shocking enough.
The two were silent for a long time, and then Cao Xiu said: "It seems that Meng De's side has also encountered a very tricky matter. ”
Cao Chun nodded silently and said: "Alas, it is really uncomfortable to let hundreds of thousands of soldiers be buried like this. ”
The two had mixed feelings, but in the end they decided to do it.
The two of them prepared separately, sent their own personal guards, and went to prepare in person.
The two instructed the soldiers what to do and did not tell them why.
It took two days to prepare, and they arranged at the West Gate.
After arranging, the two intentionally or unintentionally reduced the defenders of the city gate.
The defenders slowly dwindled, and then the support behind did not follow for a while.
Naturally, the defense of the walls became more difficult.
Ling Cao found out about this situation and ordered a fierce attack.
He thought that something had changed in the city, this city wall had suddenly weakened, and Ling Cao naturally would not let go of the opportunity.
Cao Chun and Cao Xiu naturally wouldn't let them enter the city gate easily, but repelled them several times.
The city wall was still in danger, and Ling Cao, who was determined to fight with Cao Jun, continued to attack.
Tens of thousands of troops gathered and took turns to storm on.
After another day, the gates of the city were breached.
"Kill it."
Ling Cao commanded more than 30,000 troops to storm the city gate and rush in.
Ling Cao didn't personally lead the team to kill it, because he believed in the young generals who commanded it.
Ling Cao went to the other side of the city wall and ordered: "Order the whole army, attack." ”
Ling Cao personally walked around several city walls, and the resistance of the other city gates was still fierce.
After attacking the city, the resistance of Cao's army was still strong, and it was not good for them to fight and retreat, and they were not sided.
The army rushed in and continued to attack in depth, and then more and more troops entered the city.
Advancing all the way, Ling Cao has been looking for opportunities outside the city.
He secretly mobilized a large army in order to attack from other directions.
Ling Cao was looking for an opportunity, as long as the other city gates were breached by them, then he would personally lead his troops to kill them.
After the breakthrough, in the afternoon, until the evening, the Cao army was still fiercely resisting, and the other city gates were not able to be taken for a long time.
However, the other gates will soon be brought down.
Although Cao Jun resisted hard, their morale had been greatly affected at this time, and it was Cao Chun who gave Cao Xiu a death order to keep them firm.
It was finally dark, and Cao Chun said to Cao Xiu: "Give the order to start." ”
Cao Xiu nodded, and then the two of them went their separate ways.
I didn't know much about it, and the two of them went their separate ways.
They had already arranged for some soldiers to sneak into the homes of the people around the city to hide, and the ignition had already been prepared.
Cao Xiu and Cao Chun went to set fire to it alone, and then the other person organized soldiers and horses to prepare to withdraw.
They won't all be buried together, but it is estimated that they will not be able to withdraw much, in short, as much as they can.
At this time, the east men and the south gate were broken through, and Ling Cao led people to kill them from the east gate.
