Chapter 749: Breaking Seven Counties in Five Days
"Haha.? Ranwen ??.? r?a?n?? e?n?`o?r?g?”
……
As Li Dian's words fell, Cao Cao laughed out loud after being silent for a moment.
Whether it is Hanhou Yuan Shao or Qinhou Yingfei, they are the enemies of life and death for Cao Cao, and in just ten days, Hanhou Yuan Shao lost his troops.
The weakening of the enemy's power is the increase of his own strength, adhering to this idea, Cao Cao laughed shamelessly.
In this troubled world, as a hero, they have no friends. Since embarking on the road to world domination, they are destined to be a loner.
There is only one in the Central Plains, this is a fragrant bait, and no one wants to give up.
At this moment, hearing that Yuan Shao's army had failed one after another, Cao Cao felt not uneasiness, but a kind of great joy.
Cao Cao laughed for a while, he looked at Xun You, Xi Zhicai and others, and said: "In the past few days, Han Hou Yuan Shao has lost his troops and lost generals, and the 100,000 army is less than 40,000, and the generals under his command have died in battle one after another, which is really happy. ”
……
Hearing that Yuan Shao had lost his troops, Cao Cao had a sigh of relief in his heart at this time, and it was a feeling of relief.
For a long time, sandwiched between Qin Hou Yingfei and Han Hou Yuan Shao, Cao Cao has always lived a cautious and cautious life.
Because he knew in his heart that the enemies around him were stronger than himself, Qin Hou Yingfei crossed three states in a row, with a power of thousands of miles, with 200,000 armor, and Han Hou Yuan Shao sat on the two states of Youji and Hebei, with 200,000 armor under his command.
Even Lu Bu, the king of Zhao, who owns the three northern counties of Sizhou and Jingzhou, also has 300,000 armor, only Cao Cao knows it in his heart, even if he also has 200,000 armor, but only he knows the pain.
After all, Yanzhou is too small, and raising 200,000 soldiers in one state is already a bit of a reckless force.
……
This long-term suppression made Cao Cao's heart very heavy, and this time he joined forces with Yuan Shao to go north and merge with the state, and it was not without any intention to break this depression.
Because Cao Cao knew in his heart that only by breaking through this depression could he be indomitable, and he would not feel inferior in the future hegemony.
Cao Cao was a visionary, and he knew in his heart that he had a battle with Qin Hou Yingfei or Han Hou Yuan Shao.
The ambition to dominate the world, no one will restrain it, and if you enjoy power, you can't let it go.
Cao Cao knew in his heart that only one of the three of them could stay, everyone was selfish, and Cao Cao would never sacrifice himself to let others live.
……
It's just that Cao Cao, who was laughing wildly at this time, didn't notice Li Dian who had a strange face below and wanted to speak, but he wanted to stop talking.
"My lord."
After hesitating for a moment, Li Dian still spoke, because he knew in his heart that this matter was extremely harmful and must be resolved in time.
"Huh?"
Li Dian's voice also brought Cao Cao back to his senses, his face changed slightly, and he looked at Li Dian who was at a loss, and said.
"If Man Cheng has something, hurry up and say, Ben Hou will not blame!"
After getting Cao Cao's promise, Li Dian made up his mind, Li Dian knew Cao Cao too well, knew that he was pouring water on his head, and he was not stingy to seek death.
"Lord, Bai Luo has broken through Yingchuan County, and has successively broken through seven counties of Yingchuan County within five days, except for Xuchang, Changshe and Yangzhai, without exception."
"Boom!"
Li Dian's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Cao Cao's heart hard, and Cao Cao was stunned on the spot.
Great joy is followed by great sorrow, such a role change is too fast, for a while, even if it is not a traitor, the heart is a little unbearable.
"Bailuo, hateful!"
Cao Cao did not inquire about the accuracy of the news, because he knew that since Li Dian had come to report, it must be the news that had been prepared to verify it.
"Boom!"
With a roar, Cao Cao sat down in his seat, his face was a little unnatural, he knew in his heart that it would not work if he didn't withdraw his troops this time.
As soon as he thought that the duck in his mouth was about to fly again, Cao Cao felt a burst of resentment in his heart.
Therefore, you can't be too rampant, there is an old saying, if you want to die, you will make it crazy.
"Whew."
……
Exhaled deeply, looking at Xun You and the others with a confused face, Cao Cao's small eyes turned, and he stared at Xun You and Xi Zhicai, and said.
"Gongda, Zhicai, what do you and the two of you think about this matter?"
Bai Luo broke seven counties in Yingchuan County in five days, which had shaken Cao Cao's foundation in Yanzhou. At this time, the army had no choice but to move south.
Hearing this, Xun You and Xi Zhicai glanced at each other, and they both saw the same meaning in each other's eyes, and then said towards Cao Cao.
"Lord, now there is Xu Shu's 60,000 troops to surround it, and our army is short of food, and there is Bailuo breaking seven counties in five days, which will disturb Yingchuan County."
Xun You's eyes flashed with firmness, he looked at Cao Cao, paused word by word, and said: "For this, my subordinates think that it is important to immediately withdraw the army to Yingchuan County and stabilize Yanzhou." ”
Hearing Xun You say this, Cao Cao's eyes rolled, and his gaze fell on Xi Zhicai's face, and said, "Zhicai, what do you think of this?" ”
Hearing this, Xi Zhicai's eyes flashed, sighed, and said: "Lord, now that the general trend has gone, it is no longer realistic to want to carve up and merge the state, Zhong agreed with Gongda's opinion and withdrew the army back to Yanzhou." ”
……
Regarding this matter, Xun You and Xi Zhicai both have the same opinion, because they have the same interests in this matter.
That is to ensure the stability of Yingchuan County!
Cao Cao was clear about the careful thinking of the two people, just to ensure the stability of Yingchuan County, which was not against his own interests.
As soon as he thought of this, the light in his little eyes flickered, Cao Cao was silent for a moment, turned his head to stare at Xun You, and said.
"Gongda, order the three armies to retreat!"
"No."
……
Looking at Xun You walking out, Cao Cao's eyes flashed, he stared at the group of generals, and said, "Xu Chu." ”
"My lord."
Glancing at the strong Xu Chu, Cao Cao's eyes flashed with satisfaction, and said: "You and Cao Zhen will lead the tiger and leopard to ride, follow Benhou out of the city, and go to meet the old man for a while." ”
"No."
Xi Zhicai on the side did not stop Cao Cao's move, because he knew the significance of Cao Cao's move.
To withdraw troops from the south, it must be cut off. And Cao Cao's departure will solve the problem of Xu Shu's pursuit and killing, so as to retreat calmly.
……
"Squeak."
……
The city gate was wide open, and Cao Cao rode out on a clawed yellow flying lightning, and the five thousand tigers and leopards behind him rode out like a torrent, sweeping out in an instant.
"Drive."
……
The war horse neighed, and with Cao Cao's order, five thousand tigers and leopards quickly rushed to the city gate. This is the most elite army under Cao Cao's command, and the powerful and unparalleled end of the order and prohibition end.
……
"General, Cao's army is out of the city!"
When a sharp-eyed soldier saw Cao Cao coming out of the city, he immediately shouted at Xu Shu in the big tent behind him, and said.
