Chapter 739: Breaking Wu County (Part II)
Sun Jing, the city guard of Wu County, was like an ant on a hot pot, and he didn't know what to do, at this time, there were less than 10,000 defenders in Wu County, and it was impossible to resist the attack of the main force of the Wei army.
Sun Jing is Sun Jian's younger brother, he feels that the general situation is over, he does not want to hang himself on a tree, some people under the city guard advocate that it is better to open the city and surrender early, others angrily denounce them as despicable villains, and the two gangs quarrel.
Just as they were arguing over the issue of 'war peace', a lieutenant hurriedly rushed in and reported: "General, general, the envoy of the Wei army asks to see you!" ”
Sun Jing was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Please!" ”
That night, the city gate of Wu County suddenly opened, and the city guard Sun Jing led his men out of the city to beg for surrender, and Cao Cao took the strategic place of Wu City without blood.
In the hall of Wu County's administrative office, Cao Cao received and pacified a group of officials led by Sun Jing, but a few loyal to the Sun family did not come, and Cao Cao did not care.
Cao Cao's attitude towards Sun Jing was very gentle, not at all what they had imagined before, which made everyone feel a lot more relieved.
Although the night was already deep, Cao Cao did not fall asleep, he was thinking in front of the sand table, Cao Cao was very worried about Sun Ce's movements now, he had a very bad premonition.
Guo Jia quietly entered the inner hall and saw Cao Cao looking at the sand table intently, knowing what Cao Cao was thinking now.
"Your Majesty." Guo Jia said softly.
Cao Cao raised his head, saw Guo Jia, and said with a smile: "It's Fengxiao!" Sun Jing: Did they leave? ”
Guo Jia nodded and said, "Your Majesty." Sun Jing is not useless!
Cao Cao couldn't help but think of the middle-aged man who looked like a villain before, and said with a smile: "Feng Xiao." You're kidding me! ”
Guo Jia said seriously: "Wechen is not joking! ”
Immediately, Guo Jia explained: "Weichen checked the relevant official files of Wu County and found that all matters in Wu County were handled very organized! ”
Cao Cao couldn't help but be surprised. pondered: "Could it be that Sun Jing took the credit for his subordinates for himself?" ”
Guo Jia shook his head with certainty: "Just now, Weichen and Sun Jing had a little discussion on business and civil affairs!" Weichen believes that this person's talent in internal affairs is definitely not inferior to Chang'an Ling! ”
"Oh? Since Feng Xiao is so sure, it seems that this person does have some real material! Let's talk to him again! ”
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Cao Cao couldn't help but joke: "I hear you say that I am wise all day long, and I really think that I am the best in the world now!" ”
Unexpectedly, Guo Jia said with a solemn and affirmative face: "Your Majesty is of course the first in the world, and he must be the most eloquent emperor in the past!" ”
Cao Cao hurriedly waved his hand, half-jokingly: "In the future, I will say less about these words!" I heard a lot of good things, but it didn't do any good! ”
"Weichen takes the order!" Guo Jiagong respectfully agreed.
Cao Cao's gaze returned to the sand table, and his brows furrowed slightly. said: "Let's discuss this Sun Ce!" Fengxiao, isn't there any news of Sun Ce yet? ”
Guo Jia shook his head and said, "Weichen is also here to see Your Majesty for this matter!" ”
Cao Cao motioned for Guo Jia to continue.
Guo Jia pondered: "Our army scouts have searched around Duyang County, but they have not found any clues!" ”
As he spoke, Guo Jia walked to the sand table and pointed to the southwest and northwest of Duyang County, and said: "The search range of our army scouts is mainly in these places, and no trace of Sun Ce has been found, so there are only two possibilities, one is that Sun Ce's army has not yet arrived in Duyang County, and the other is that Sun Ce's army has gone out!" ”
Cao Cao looked at the sand table and couldn't help but nodded. "Feng Xiao thinks that is the most likely?"
Guo Jia explained: "According to Sun Ce's personality and some previous circumstances, it is the least likely that the army did not reach the range of Duyang County, and the most likely destination of Sun Ce's army is"
Guo Jia's fingers drew an arc from Duyang County in the southeast direction to the county town of Wu, where Cao Cao was now. Guo Jia raised his head and looked at Cao Cao with a hint of worry.
Cao Cao frowned slightly, "What does Fengxiao mean that Sun Ce's army is coming at us?" ”
Guo Jia nodded and said, "This is the most likely!" After all, this Yangzhou is Sun Ce's territory. He must have gotten the news that His Majesty's army had marched into Wu County on the way to the aid of Hushu! ”
Cao Cao suddenly laughed and said, "That's fine, I don't have to go to him everywhere!" ”
Seeing that Guo Jia's face was gloomy. Said disappreciatively: "Fengxiao doesn't have to worry! Our army was originally going to find him, not to mention that the 100,000 people of our army are all elite in a hundred battles. Why be afraid of his 200,000 Wu army! ”
Guo Jia still said worriedly: "That being said, after all, the enemy is in the dark, I am in the light, and Your Majesty is a body of ten thousand gold, so I can't afford to lose!" Why don't Your Majesty be escorted back to Jianye by the Imperial Forest Army first! ”
Cao Cao frowned and said unhappily: "What's the difference between this and escaping?" Don't mention this again! ”
"Weichen takes the order!" Guo Jia saw that Cao Cao was resolute, so he had to agree.
Cao Cao looked at the sand table and said: "Let Gao Lan, Gao Shun led the 5th Army to lead 40,000 people to be stationed on the Qingfeng Gang outside the city, and the 50,000 people of the Second Army and Zhu Rong's 50,000 barbarian troops are stationed in the city, and the main force of the scouts will be transferred to the southeast!" ”
Guo Jia nodded and added: "At present, Hushu can be broken overnight, and the Xuanjia elite is useless under Hushu City, it is better to transfer them over to increase the chances of victory against Sun Cejun!" ”
Cao Cao thought for a moment, "That's it!" ”
The herald was immediately called to give the order.
The next day, Cao Cao got up early, he couldn't sleep, to be honest, Sun Ce was still a bit of a threat to Cao Cao, and the name of Jiangdong Xiaobawang made Cao Cao quite fascinated in his previous life.
Zhu Rong found Cao Cao, Cao Cao's eyes couldn't help but light up, Zhu Rong in tight-fitting crop top leather armor was so eye-catching at any time, and she had a rather cordial sense of modernity for Cao Cao.
"Your Majesty, I wish Rong something to ask for!" Zhu Rong knelt down on one knee and said.
Cao Cao hurriedly stepped forward to help Zhu Rong, smiled and said softly: "No need to be polite!" ”
Zhu Rong withdrew his arm that was held by Cao Cao in some panic, lowered his head and hugged his fists and said: "Your Majesty, Zhu Rong hopes to adjust the task with the two generals Gao Ran and Gao Shun!" ”
"Why is that?" Cao Cao asked puzzled.
Zhu Rong said: "Zhu Rong has not made an inch of merit since he was named a general by His Majesty, and Zhu Rong thinks that Zhu Rong's army is better at fighting in the mountains and rivers!" ”
Cao Cao suddenly felt that his feelings were so strong, and Zhu Rong wanted to make a contribution!
Cao Cao suddenly held Zhu Rong's hands and said softly: "Don't worry, there is an opportunity for meritorious service!" Besides, I don't want you to be hurt in any way! ”
Where had Zhu Rong heard such gentle words, and his heart trembled, and he raised his head suddenly, and hurriedly lowered his head.
At this time, Zhu Rong's appearance is very attractive, can you imagine a big beauty with a hot body and mature charm exuding a shy demeanor? (To be continued.) )
