Xuchang, Prime Minister's Mansion. Cao 'Cao' sat in the hall, and the military generals were divided into two compartments. Cao '' eldest son Cao Pi first knelt down the mountain and shouted: Congratulations to my father on this life, Duke Wei! Congratulations to the father on behalf of the children and siblings!

Cao '' laughed: \u201 How can He De, His Majesty is magnanimous, Chibi lost the first battle, His Majesty not only did not blame, but was promoted to the rank of knight, how can he be embarrassed! Rise up, everybody!

Jia Kui said: The prime minister's merit is in the community, and it will be the world for thousands of generations, how can the little Wei Gong show the prime minister's merit!

There was a sound of inflammation, Xun Yu, Xun Yu's uncle and nephew sat aside, without saying a word. Cao '' and asked Xun Yudao: Why didn't Wen Ruo speak?

Xun Yu said: Now the Han Dynasty is in a dilemma, there are Sun Quan and Liu Bei in the south, and Li Hui in the north, but the prime minister is silent in the false name, and what is he said? Jizhou and Qingzhou lost most of them, and if it goes on like this, the three states of Hebei may not be under the control of the imperial court, shouldn't they cry bitterly?

The laughter came to an abrupt end, and the lively scene disappeared in an instant. Cao 'Cao' frowned twice, then nodded, and said bitterly: Mr. Xun said that it is also the old man's heart, now it is an eventful autumn, Liu Bei and Sun Quan covet Jingzhou's 'desire', Li Hui is still attacking Hebei Sanzhou, you should not be complacent, there is still a long way to go before you can help the Han goal!

It was difficult for everyone to change the level of crying and weeping for a while, and they could only stop talking and look at the situation. Cao '' and said: Li Hui deceived people too much, who wants to lead troops to block Li Hui?

Death was silent, and no one 'stood up'. Xun Youdao: Prime Minister, Li Hui has long had a plan for the three states of Hebei, and it is too late to send troops now, so it is the only choice to withdraw all the soldiers and civilians of the three states now to preserve their strength, in order to be the only choice in the future, if it is too late, I am afraid that they will be hit again.

Report! Prime Minister, and General Gao Ran's good news, General Gao Ran successfully resisted the attack of Wei Yan's army in Shangdang, and asked the Prime Minister for instructions, what to do next! The soldier knelt down and reported to Cao.

Jia Kui immediately said: Prime Minister, since General Gao Ran has won, it is better to drop General Gao Ran and immediately lead his troops out of Huguan to reinforce Jizhou, which should be able to block Li Hui's army!

Xun You said again: Ridiculous! Wei Yan just retreated, the army was not damaged, as soon as Gao Ran left, Wei Yan came again, and what will happen to the state?

All right! Cao '' hurriedly spoke out to stop it: It's not XZBd noisy, the old man has long expected such a day, only XZBd and the state will not be lost, Jizhou and Qingzhou still have room for redemption, and Cao Ren and Li Dian immediately led an army of 50,000 to go to Bingzhou and Gaolan as soon as they arrived, and continue to attack Jinyang to the north, and be sure to take Shouyang, Leping, and Baima before Li Hui occupied Jizhou and Qingzhou, and make preparations for attacking Changshan!

Prime Minister Gao Jian! Jia Kui immediately added: In this way, the plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao has been completed, Li Hui's army will inevitably retreat, and it will be much easier for them to regain the lost territory! Xun You shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said no more.

Further south of Wei County is Yecheng. This was once the capital of Yuan Shao when he was in Jizhou, and since Yuan Shao's defeat, it has been deserted for a while. Over the years, deep in the hinterland of the Cao army, no one has paid attention to it anymore, and the degree of damage has become more and more serious. The city wall is full of weeds, and rats and rabbits make nests in it, and the good end of the city wall has been 'made' like a honeycomb, and there is a danger of collapsing if you touch it lightly.

Xu Huang pointed forward with a big axe, and the Youzhou sergeant rushed towards the city wall with a shout. The catapult was a huge boulder, slamming down on the walls, splashing a large cloud of rubble with rats or rabbits. The defenders scurried one by one, and some of them lay directly in hidden places without looking out.

Yecheng may be the smoothest city since this attack, from the beginning of the offensive to the end, there is not a stick of incense, up to the county, down to the ordinary sergeants all surrendered, and the Youzhou army did not suffer a single casualty. Xu Huang urged the war horse to enter Yecheng, did not go to the subordinate government to receive, did not go to the treasury to count, and did not go out of the list of Anming, but went straight to a dilapidated small courtyard in the back street of Yecheng.

When he came to the 'door', Xu Huang dismounted and personally stepped forward to knock on the 'door'. There was not much time, and a young man opened the 'door' of the courtyard, looked out and asked: You are Youzhou Li Hui's army, right?

Xu Huang said: Yes, it is General Xu Huang of Jianwei under the command of General Anbei, who came to meet General Ma Lao on the order of the lord of the family!

The young man nodded: Come in! My father is waiting for you in the house!

Walking into the courtyard, the small courtyard is not big and clean. This is the place where Cao 'Cao' put Ma Teng under house arrest. In that year, Xuchang Ma Tengxing failed to assassinate Cao 'Cao', and was captured by Cao 'Cao' with a counter-strategy, and his two sons Ma Tie and Ma Xiu were also captured together. In order to stabilize Ma Chao, Li Hui suggested to Cao 'Cao' that Ma Teng's father and son be imprisoned first to control Ma Chao, and Cao 'Cao' frontier Ma Teng and his son were locked up in this Yecheng.

When Xu Huang set out on the expedition this time, Li Hui repeatedly told Yecheng to try to protect Ma Teng's father and son, and these people will be of great use in the future. That's why Xu Huang couldn't wait to see Ma Teng. After a few years of detention, Ma Teng's flying spirit in the early years has been extinguished, and he looks like an old dragon clock, sitting in the living room, Ma Tie and Ma Xiu are separated on both sides.

After Xu Huang informed himself. Ma Teng nodded: Thank you General Li for saving your life, but the old man is old and has no interest in the expedition, and the dying don't care about anything, but he didn't personally get rid of the Cao thief for His Majesty, and there are some regrets in his heart!

Xu Huang said: Now that the head of the family will soon XZBd recover the three states of Hebei, the defeat of the Cao thief is just around the corner, and I hope that the old general will return to Liangzhou to regroup and work with the head of the family to clear the monarch's side and eliminate the Cao thief!

Ma Teng shook his head: \u201 Isn't the eldest son Ma Chao in Liangzhou? You can't go directly to him, what are you looking for?

Xu Huang said: General Ma Chao was worried about the safety of General Ma and swallowed his anger over the years, in fact, he had already had the heart to resist Cao, and now that the old general escaped, General Ma would immediately raise troops, but the old general may have forgotten that the situation in Liangzhou is very complicated, Han Sui may never sit idly by, if General Ma can return to Liangzhou to sit down, he should be nine out of ten.

Ma Tiedao: Father, we have been locked up by Cao 'Cao' for so many years, and it's time for us to take revenge, don't XZBd hesitate, we will immediately turn with the eldest brother in Liangzhou, and then fight to the death with Cao 'Cao'!

Ma Teng still shook his head: Hehehe, let's take a look and talk about it, tired and cold, let's talk about it here today, how about talking about it tomorrow, General Xu?

Good things don't go out of the 'door', and bad things spread thousands of miles. Just when Cao 'Cao' was about to send off Cao Ren and Li Dian's army to Bingzhou, Yecheng was broken down, and Ma Teng's father and son were obtained by Li Hui. Cao '' immediately realized that it was not good: it was bad! The last thing I want to see happens.

Within a few days, news came from Liangzhou that Ma Chao and Han Sui united again, bypassed Meiwu, and went straight to Chang'an. Chang'an guarded Zhong Miao urgently for help.
