The nightmare of three days made Cao Yuan's coalition army feel only fear, and when the large siege equipment was destroyed, everyone began to have no hope of attacking Peixian, and it can even be said that no one believed that Cao Cao or Zhang Xun had any hope for Peixian.

But Cao Cao didn't plan to back down, he knew what his old friend and old opponent's series of sneak attack plans were for, if he really gave up attacking Pei County because of the difficulties that appeared at this time, it would definitely be as he wished, if it was someone else, maybe Cao Cao would admit it, but Chen Gong, although he didn't think that he was competitive, but obviously he didn't want to lose in his hands, of course, if you add the pressure of Yuan Shu's office, and Yuan Shao may attack Xuzhou at any time, don't say that there are these three points, even if one of them, He couldn't even retreat.

Even if he loses the large siege equipment and can't attack the city, he can stay in Peixian and not leave, he doesn't believe that Chen Gong will dare to attack at night after repeated repeats, of course, from today onwards, the night defense must be strengthened, and there must be no less open and dark posts, and Chen Gong must not be given a chance again.

For Cao Jun's reaction, Chen Gong, who came to the top of Peixian City early in the morning to look at Cao Ying, did not know, he finally sent out three good news yesterday, and now he has to wait for Cao Jun's news, although he can't see any situation in Cao Ying here, but he still silently looks at the west, where Cao Jun camps, I don't know if he will Chen, although he has sent scouts to investigate, but there has been no news for so long, it seems that as he expected, Cao Cao will not easily admit defeat.

How many years have he and Cao Cao known each other? Ten years or twenty years? Even he forgot about himself, but remembered that when the two first met, he was still young and high-spirited, and now that he is middle-aged, everything seems to have happened in a blink of an eye, and even the opposite seems to be yesterday.

Because of Zhang Miao, Chen Gong and Cao Cao have become strangers, because of the death of Zhang Miao, Zhang Chao and others, they have a deep enmity, and it is impossible to resolve it in this life, no matter who falls into the hands of the other party, there will be no good result, he understands this, Cao Cao also understands, because the two have been friends for many years, and they understand themselves and understand each other, so this old man will never have any sympathy for each other, except for hatred or hatred.

Chen Gong can see this in Liu Lan, he can have a good and cherished love for a good man with Lu Bu, and he can also have a sense of pity and pity with Yuan Shao, but he can't have this situation with Cao Cao, the reason is completely consistent with his situation, at most it is just a different reason for the opposite purpose, at this point, Liu Lan may not forgive Cao Cao, but he will definitely not hold a grudge against Yuan Shao.

This is human nature, people's hearts are biased, no one's heart grows in the right, it is impossible to be impartial, which is why more people will become enemies, and if it is said that Cao Cao is the most harmful, it seems to be Lu Bu, but he can tolerate Lu Bu, but Liu Lan is impossible, because of the injury to his heart, the betrayal of his closest confidant, is that Cao Cao will never forgive him,

And this point, Liu Lan and Chen Gong's situation is still the same, and the same principle is applied to Yuan Shao, the same situation is the same, if it weren't for frustration, if it wasn't for Guan Yu's reckless killing of Yan Liang, maybe the current situation would be a different scene, because Liu Lan also caught the selfish nature of human beings.

Because now no matter how many times he Liu Lan defeated him or killed Yan Liang, this is a confrontation between them, he can accept this reality, the opponent is the enemy, he hates him and will not let him go, but the enemies can have a sense of sympathy for each other, but compared with Cao Cao, his hatred for Liu Lan is smaller.

Now Yuan Shao, without scruples, can say that the most ruthless person in his heart is Cao Cao, the Yanzhou he controls is obtained by him, and he uses the appointment and dismissal of the captain to suppress him, this rampant performance makes him very dissatisfied, he is more and more aware that Cao Cao is a wolf who can't be fed, and it is precisely because of several betrayals that Yuan Shao hates him, but he lacks a chance, because of Liu Lan's existence, if it weren't for Liu Lan, he believes that after taking Qingzhou, His main offensive target will never give priority to Xuzhou, but must be Yanzhou, and this is another incident of turning an old man into an enemy.

The closer the confidants and friends, the more they can't easily forgive their betrayal, but they will be more tolerant of their enemies than their relatives and friends, this kind of thing, Chen Gong has seen too much, and he has experienced it himself, even he can't explain it.

Chen Gong can only return it to human nature, if someone tells him that this is not the case, then he may never find an accurate answer, but now he is more concerned about Cao Cao's problem, the decision he will make next.

Although everything is impossible in his expectations, but because of his understanding of Cao Cao, what kind of reaction he will make after suffering repeated blows, he can think of it, although Cao Cao looks open-minded and generous on weekdays, but he is suspicious by nature, and his mind is not like the outside world rumors, the most typical situation is that he has been avoiding the fact that he is a descendant of the eunuch party.

This matter can almost be said to be Cao Cao's taboo, Xu no one dares to mention it, if he is really broad-minded, it is impossible to do such a thing, it can only show that the identity of the eunuch party is a stain in his heart, it is an identity that makes him unable to really raise his head, maybe no one will believe his speculation, after all, although he is after the eunuch party, but Cao Jie, that is, his grandfather, has a very high reputation in the world, how many people he has done for the country, everything he has done can be described as righteous deeds, Compared with Zhang Rang and other ten permanent servants, he is undoubtedly the most respected person in the world over the years.

It is precisely because he understands Cao Cao that Cao Cao is even more unlikely to withdraw from the army after repeated defeats, because he will not admit and unwilling to admit that he has failed, and he is still defeated in his own hands, he can defeat anyone in this world, but he just can't be defeated in his own hands.

He wants to tell himself with practical actions that the betrayal of 'their' back then was the most stupid decision. This is Cao Cao, as for what decision he will make after staying, Chen Gong can't judge yet, but he is ready, and Zhang Liao and Xu Sheng, who have been by his side, have never made a sound, if Zhang Liao knew Chen Gong's great ability early on, then at this moment Xu Sheng also threw himself into the five bodies that he admired.

He has seen too many capable people, but there is no one who can make him admire like Chen Gong, all he needs now is to be quiet, waiting for Chen Gong to make today's latest deployment, and even he will think about whether Chen Gong will continue to let them attack the camp today.

Attacking the camp for three days in a row, it is said that there are no more than three things, but Chen Gong may really be able to do the opposite, if someone else makes such a decision, Xu Sheng will definitely question it, but Chen Gong's words, then he will implement it unconditionally, this trust comes from the victory of these three days.

Although Xu Sheng did not have much reputation among all Liu Lan's generals, and even those famous generals did not have much time to fight together, and lacked some intuitive feelings about their ability, but this time he was completely convinced by Chen Gong, and he obeyed his orders, even if he was sent to death, he was willing.

It's not stupidity, it's trust in Chen Gong.

Chen Gong may have felt Xu Sheng's eager gaze, and glanced back at the two people who were walking all the way with him on the city tower, there were no dense soldiers on the city tower, but a soldier was left every few meters away to observe the situation, and once he found something abnormal in the distance, he would notify Zhang Fan, the chief general of the West Gate, as soon as possible.

Chen Gong glanced back at the two of them and said, "It's a good rest today, there won't be any fighting." "After all, it's almost noon, although it's late autumn, but the enemy army has not yet come to attack the city at this time, so it will be even more impossible around noon, so I relaxed a lot.

And after three days of night attack, in fact, Cao Cao's soldiers did not have the energy to attack again, not to mention a strong fortress like Peixian, even if Cao Cao really wanted to fight with him, he would rest first to recover his morale, and they would also be able to rest for a day at this opportunity.

After three days of sneak attacks, Cao Cao had a headache, but it was a big test for the soldiers under their accounts, and even the two main generals in front of them, just take this opportunity to rest for a day, as for what will happen tomorrow, probably the two of them will have some ideas, but what are they thinking, of course he knows that there are no large siege equipment, and if he wants to capture a strong fortress like Peixian, unless Cao Cao is desperate, otherwise, as long as he dares to attack, he will inevitably pay a heavy price. Instead, he hoped that Cao Cao would come to attack the city, and if he did, he would turn Cao's camp five miles away into a sea of fire.

"Rest today?" Although Pei County can't do anything to clear the enemy, but there is no suitable giant wood around him that can walk on the car ladder, even if Cao Cao wants to build the ladder, now send people to find wood, and when the ladder is made, it is estimated that it will take two or three days.

If it is a giant ladder brought by Cao Cao from Xudu, with wheels underneath, and the ladder vendors have grappling hooks, they can firmly grasp the city wall when they put up the battlements of the city wall, and it is not possible to get it in two or three days if it is up to the craftsmen in the clouds to produce such a large ladder.

But even if it is made, the city walls of Pei County can withstand any test, if Cao Cao is angry and desperate to attack the city, then he will make him really feel powerful. It's not that the current Chen Palace is more terrifying than the Chen Palace under Lu Bu's tent a few months ago, but that the environment has changed, everything is new, and no one will do anything to him, not even a trip.

Such a relaxed atmosphere, if there was such an environment when he was under Lu Bu's account, then they would not be defeated, he had the confidence that he would achieve the final victory, but unfortunately, he and Gao Shun were not on good terms, and Lu Bu also lost more and more trust in him, so that he could not make a plan, and he could not show his talents.

But for the defeat, Chen Gong was also very unwilling, because he was not defeated in the hands of Cao Cao, but in the hands of his own infighting, and it was precisely for this reason that at the moment when Liu Lan asked him to serve as a military general in the Xuzhou Governor's Mansion, although he did not dare to resist the order, he lived a reclusive life, and did not ask about the affairs of the Governor's Mansion.

And this is entirely because of the opposite purpose of Gao Shun back then, although he prides himself on being right to things and people, and Gao Shun is also such a tone, but people who are competitive in their hearts, it is not surprising that they finally change their taste, and he finally arrived in Xuzhou, but he did not expect that with the establishment of the Governor's Mansion, he would become the situation in the past.

How could he be in love, so he would rather raise some flowers, birds, fish and insects at home to pass the time, because he was too afraid of having a conflict with Zhao Yun in Xuzhou, maybe many people see through everyone around him, but it is difficult to see through himself, but Chen Gong is too clear about his shortcomings and weaknesses, just because he knows himself too well, he knows that once he believes in something, he will be extra persistent and not give in.

Maybe this seems to be well-intentioned, but it may be the cause of the contradiction between different opinions and the final opposite, after all, Zhao Yun is also experienced in a hundred battles, he will also have his own ideas, if the opinions are the same, it is fine, but if the opinions are different, then there will inevitably be differences, and it is possible for the relationship to break down in the end.

He didn't want the situation between himself and Gao Shun to happen in Xuzhou again, so he lived in seclusion and became an idle cloud and wild crane, but the moment Liu Lan invited him out, when he decided to come to Pei County, he made several small requests to Liu Lan, and one of them was his absolute authority.

After all, I don't know much about Liu Lan, and he is still a general, whether Liu Lan will agree to him is not guaranteed, but everything that happened made him excited and grateful, and what he didn't expect was that Liu Lan could actually transfer Zhang Liao to his command in order for him, although he also knew that there might be another hidden situation here, but he was more willing to think on the bright side, even if it really had another purpose, it was nothing more than to continue to test them, and he let Liu Lan completely disappoint, wouldn't it be equally good.

These generals, they will be under the pressure of some public opinion, if they rebel again, then they don't have to live in this world, this is related to reputation, so they have already surrendered once, and it is impossible to let Chen Gong surrender again, he can't be as brazen as some people, after all, he is now more like a martial artist, but he has always regarded himself as a literati, and what literati care about most is undoubtedly face and reputation.

As for Zhang Liao, in fact, Chen Gong doesn't have much confidence, what kind of decision he will make in the end is unknown, but it is precisely because of this battle that he can see Zhang Liao thoroughly, he really didn't misunderstand Wen Yuan, Wen Yuan and his situation are almost exactly the same, and if he is allowed to rebel back, he will never be.
