Guan Yu led his troops to Pei County as fast as possible, and the troops once again traveled at night to Qi County secretly.

is about to enter the territory of Pei County, Guan Yu must be more careful when marching, after all, this battle Guan Yu is mainly for

Cooperating with Zhao Yun, it can be regarded as coming with a mission, the first time is to send scouts to investigate the current situation in Pei County, he does not dare to enter Pei County rashly, if Zhao Yun's deployment is disrupted, then if Cao Cao escapes, will everything fall short.

If it is said that as far as the entire third battle of Xuzhou is concerned, the biggest variable is Yan Liang, if he wins, he will revitalize the whole game, if he loses, he will lose the whole game, fortunately, they laughed at the end, now is the time to close the net, look at the time to strike, can not be rushed or slow, otherwise the effect will not be achieved, then this battle can not be called a complete victory whether it is Zhao Yun or the entire battle.

However, Guan Yu's caution was obviously based on Cao Cao not being aware of his existence, but because of Zhang Fei's weirdness, the scouts sent by Zhang Xun detected their figures, although they did not see the shadow of the army, but they found the scouts sent by Guan Yu, and for the first time, Zhang Xun, who fought with Zhang Fei, got the scouts back, although it was only said that a scout team was found, but the scouts who appeared from Donghu County at this point in time, whether it was Guan Yu or not, would not be a good thing.

"Tell Gong Cao about this."

He needs to wait for Cao Cao's reaction, especially now that the battle situation is unfavorable to them and beneficial to Cao's army, so he doesn't dare to retreat rashly, so he will suffer a big loss, and it is likely to cause the collapse of the entire battle situation, so after he notified Cao Cao, he sent scouts to find out that the troops in Donghai County are the one in Xuzhou.

When the order was conveyed, I heard a burst of soldiers shouting in front of me, and then all the soldiers around shouted along, Zhang Fei approached, and his current position could already clearly see Zhang Fei's every expression, and the blood stains on his face were clear and terrifying.

The Xuzhou cavalry arrived in a blink of an eye.

Under the fierce attack of Zhang Fei like a tiger, the defense line of the soldiers in front of him does not know how long he can hold out, if Zhang Xun still despised Zhang Fei before, then at this moment he is really shocked by him, he has never seen a person who can be as tireless as him, fighting from beginning to end, as long as it is the most dangerous place, there will definitely be his figure.

The snake spear danced and stabbed one Shouchun soldier after another, such a performance was not only the Shouchun sergeant who was frightened, even if he was the same, Zhang Fei was not a human being, wouldn't he be tired and tired?

"Hold on!" Now he can't count on others, Cao Ren has sent people to ask for help several times, but there is no response, and now he can only count on the stubborn resistance of the Shouchun army.

At this moment, Zhang Fei screamed and killed several people in a row, and under his rush, more and more Shouchun soldiers fell and corpses were all over the field.

In fact, their battle here was not tragic compared to Cao Ren, after all, the forces that the two sides really invested in the battle were not much compared to Cao Ren and the Xuzhou infantry at this moment.

Although the battle was far from being comparable to Cao Ren, it was definitely much more dangerous than that side, and both sides paid great losses.

At the same time, the thunderous sound of horses' hooves in Cao Cao's direction never stopped, and Cao Cao had been directing his troops to resist Zhao Yun's attack, and at this time, Zhang Xun passed the news of Guan Yu's imminent arrival to Cao Cao.

"Guan Yu is here? So fast?. ”

Cao Cao, who heard the news, immediately stayed in the field, and Guo Jia, who was almost exactly the same as him, was also a little incredulous, because Guan Yu came too fast, you must know that seven days ago, they got the news that Guan Yu was still reorganizing the army in Dongguan.

"What now?" Cao Cao didn't have any extra nonsense, and went straight to the point and asked a few military advisors around him.

I have to say that as long as it is discussed, then there will inevitably be no unanimous situation, you say yours, I say mine, some want to continue fighting, some want to withdraw troops now, all of a sudden, the surroundings are chaotic, noisy like a market.

Suddenly, everyone found that Cao Cao's face became ugly, and they quieted down one after another, seeing that they had enough of arguing, Cao Cao finally spoke, and said: "The current situation can be determined, Guan Yu plans to repeat the old trick again, and Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun appeared one after another, just to drag us down." ”

"But now, although it is not possible to determine Guan Yu's specific location yet, it will definitely not exceed Qi County at the farthest, although there is still some distance from the battlefield, but if we can't end the battle before Guan Yu arrives, then our ending will not be better than Yan Liang, if we can solve Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun before he comes, then even if Guan Yu arrives, there is no need to worry. But the risk of doing so is too great, knowing that the enemy army is looking around, and desperately thinking about annihilating Zhao Yun or Zhang Fei, such a risk cannot be taken. “

"Then I don't know what the lord is planning." In the group of strategists, one person suddenly spoke, and Cao Cao looked at the speaker, but it was Cheng Yu.

"I wonder what Zhongde's plan is?"

Cheng Yu came out of the ranks, bowed his hands, and said: "Qi Cao Gong, I think that Guan Yu is menacing, if the news is accurate, then the Setshan camp must be in the area of Qi County, and our army must not continue to fight with the enemy, but the biggest problem now is that if our army wants to withdraw, where should we retreat, and where should we deploy defenses." “

Cheng Yu said what Cao Cao thought in his heart, retreating is the easiest choice, but it is also the most dangerous choice, a little careless, before encountering the mountain camp, it will be attacked by the dragoon army, when Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei pour out, the result may be more dangerous than encountering Guan Yu.

The current situation, in fact, is a bit of a dilemma, because of the danger of retreat, can stay and fight with the enemy, and is also facing the situation that it is very likely to be a decisive battle with the Xuzhou army, they now seem to have a lot of troops, but as soon as the mountain battalion arrives, the advantage of troops is not so obvious, in this case, even if it is a rout on the whole line, it is not alarmist, so we must think of a foolproof strategy, rather than blindly defending or retreating.

"What Zhong De said is good." Guo Jia, who had not spoken, stood up and said: "This matter, if our army retreats close, it will have no effect, and if it retreats far, it will be pursued by Zhao Yun's dragoon army, and when the enemy cavalry penetrates deep into Yanzhou, it is self-evident how much damage it will cause to Yanzhou and Yuzhou."

The cavalry plundered the township, coming and going like the wind, and they really couldn't leave them at that time, but they could cause great damage to the pavilion, especially when it was almost the harvest season, if they were allowed to enter at this time, it would definitely be worth the loss, so even if they retreated, they could not directly retreat to Qian County, at most retreat to Feng County, this is the bottom line. ”

Cao Cao nodded silently in his heart, and then glanced at a few people, none of them spoke, because Guo Jia didn't speak, the army still had a chance, as long as he opened his mouth, especially as soon as he opened his mouth, he set a tone of retreat like Cheng Yu now, and then he wanted to suggest that the strategists who continued to fight would understand that there was no hope, and the strategists who originally suggested retiring would naturally only meet, so now the surroundings have become such a scene.

After Cao Cao glanced at them, he looked at Guo Jia and Cheng Yu, after retreating to Feng County, the Xuzhou army came over, do we want to fight them in Feng County?

After the Xuzhou troops are assembled, it is not so simple to get a bargain from Liu Lan, if you retreat to Fengxian and finally have to fight with Liu Lan's troops, then why not take advantage of the current situation to solve one of them first, so that even if you retreat, you can still grasp some initiative, if you put the duck in your hand again, when the time comes, Liu Lan may give them a chance to evacuate?

Cheng Yuqiang squeezed out a smile and reluctantly said: "It can't be avoided, but it is imperative, if the main force of Xuzhou comes, we can only face it, but if there is good news before this, then this battle may be able to turn defeat into victory." ”

"Good news?"

Some of the generals around Cao Cao listened a little inexplicably, what good news will come at this time, some people don't understand, but they don't dare to ask, and at the moment when they wonder in their hearts, suddenly Li Dian stood up and said: "It is unrealistic to expect Yuan Shao to send troops again to resolve the crisis of our army, after all, no one can guarantee whether Yuan Shao will send troops again, even if Yuan Shao sends troops, but there is a lot of distance from Xuzhou after all, far water can't quench the thirst, and then we still have to rely on ourselves, and, Once we pin our hopes on Yuan Shao, if he fails to send troops in time, our army will inevitably fight to the death with the Xuzhou army, and the situation will become extremely dangerous at that time. ”

"Yes, although the possibility of Yuan Shao sending troops is very high, it is too far away, and the troops left in Qingzhou now are only forty or fifty thousand at best, and let Yuan Tan and the trial match work together, I am afraid that it is not realistic, so our army still has to rely on itself, the last general feels that the best way now is to pour out of the nest and solve Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun as soon as possible, even if Guan Yu arrives at that time, it will not be a problem."

Xiahou Yuan's suggestion is to continue to stay and fight with the enemy, I have to say that his suggestion is actually to say the voice of all the martial artists, at this time such a big advantage, no one is willing to retreat, after all, they have a way to quickly solve Zhang Fei, and then turn around to deal with Zhao Yun, even if they retreat 10,000 steps, as long as they repel Zhang Fei, even if they don't care about Zhao Yun, it doesn't matter, when the time comes, they still have the strength to fight with Guan Yu, otherwise, let alone retreat to Fengxian, even if they retreat to Xudu, the current situation is not safe.

Cao Cao looked up at Cao Hong and the Yanzhou army, who were resisting the dragoons, and then at the battlefield of the Shouchun army, where the shouting had not stopped for a long time.

Now the most undecidable thing to get up is that Zhang Fei's side has not moved, if Zhang Xun can solve it earlier, then it will be easy for Cao Cao to make any decision, but now this situation, although looking at Zhang Fei's department is in danger, but the same Zhang Xun's situation is not good, if you wait, wait until the news of Zhang Fei's destruction is okay, if you wait for Zhang Xun's Shouchun Army to have an accident, then the situation is even worse.

Cao Cao retracted his reassuring gaze at Zhang Xun: "You go back now, tell your general, and ask him to withdraw his troops to Fengxian immediately." The moment this order was issued, Cao Cao somehow suddenly became depressed in his heart, as if there was an important matter blocking his chest, it can be said that making such a decision was extremely difficult for him, but he understood better what it would be like in the end if he continued to persevere.

He didn't want to be Yan Liang, and he didn't want to be Yan Liang, so he could only deal with it in the safest way. And now Yuan Shu is the only ally he can rely on besides Yuan Shao, of course he doesn't want Zhang Xun to have any accidents, otherwise, his life will not be easy.

After Cao Cao conveyed the order, the whole person seemed to be petrified, and after a long time, everyone heard him sigh, and then looked at Xiahou Yuan: "You go and answer the list." ”

"No."

After Cao Cao made the deployment, he was extremely reluctant to lead the horse away, he didn't know whether his decision was for him to turn evil into good fortune, or instead fell into a predicament, but for now, it was the only decision that could avoid a fiasco, he had no choice, and now he didn't have the confidence of Liu Lan or even Yuan Shao.

If the two of them make a wrong decision, the disciples are thick, and they can turn over, but he and Shouchun do not have this family background, so every step out, they must be cautious, once any accident occurs, it may lead to their total annihilation, and the annihilation of the whole army means that they will not only collapse, but also may become the prisoners of others in an instant.

Cao Cao retracted his reassuring gaze at Zhang Xun: "You go back now, tell your general, and ask him to withdraw his troops to Fengxian immediately." The moment this order was issued, Cao Cao somehow suddenly became depressed in his heart, as if there was an important matter blocking his chest, it can be said that making such a decision was extremely difficult for him, but he understood better what it would be like in the end if he continued to persevere.

If the two of them make a wrong decision, the disciples are thick, and they can turn over, but he and Shouchun don't have this family background, so they go out every step.
