Chapter 779: The general trend is gone, and there is no choice but to escape

That expression was not only shocked by the siege of the Wei army, but also deeply frightened by the potter's pushing power, never thought that the potter was not only deceitful, but also able to see through the sky, and could see how cold and warm the temperature was.

"How is this possible, I don't believe that the pottery thief can have this ability, and I don't believe it when I die-" Cao Cao gritted his teeth, angry and frightened, and the whole person almost fell into madness.

At this moment, the rumbling sound of artillery suddenly fell silent, and the heaven and earth returned to peace.

Fa Zheng's expression changed suddenly, and he said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, the pottery thieves stopped bombarding, most likely they are going to attack the city, we can't sit still, we must take action." ”

Cao Cao's figure shook for a while, and then he woke up from his anger and shouted: "Pass the order, gather the whole army, and follow me to attack the Wei camp and contain the pottery thieves from attacking the city." ”

"Your Majesty, no." Fa Zheng categorically denied Cao Cao's decision, and said in a deep voice: "Since the pottery thief dares to bombard the city, he must have divided his troops and horses, waiting for us to attack. ”

"Then, can I just sit back and watch the pottery thief blast through Chang'an?" Cao Cao clenched his fists.

Fa Zheng groaned slightly, but said: "Even if the pottery thief can break through the Chang'an city wall, at most it will only blast out a gap, with the wisdom of the prince, most of the defenders in the city have been exhausted at the east gate at this moment, even if the city is broken, it will definitely block the Wei army out of the gap." The minister thought that His Majesty should send troops and horses to enter the city from the north gate to support the prince, as long as the Wei army can be blocked until the temperature warms after dark, we have the hope of filling the gap and turning the crisis into safety. ”

Cao Cao thought about it, and immediately ordered the soldiers and horses in the horn camp to be assembled, and prepared to enter the city in person to reinforce Cao Ang.

Just as the Qin army was preparing, the front line of the east gate of Chang'an made a sound like the sky and the earth cracking, and then the sound of the Wei army's tidal wave of killing sounded.

Cao Cao knew that this must be because the city wall had been blasted and the Wei army was taking advantage of the situation to storm the city.

Cao Cao can only hope now that his precious prince reacted quickly and had already sent a large army to the east gate in advance to block the impact of the Wei army for a moment and support his own reinforcements to arrive.

In the torment of worry, Cao Cao finally finished assembling his troops and horses, so he opened the camp gate wide, and prepared to personally lead the army out of the camp and go straight to the north gate to enter the city.

Just when Cao Cao was about to attack at the gate of the Prancing Horse Camp, he was suddenly surprised to see that the north gate of Chang'an was wide open, and thousands of soldiers of his own army seemed to be defeated, running towards the camp.

Cao Cao's heart was chuckled, and his heart was raised to his throat, and he was panicked for a while.

At this moment, a frightened horse rushed in front of him, it was Cao Zhen, a young rookie of the Cao family.

"Zidan, what's going on, you don't stick to the city, you dare to flee without permission?" Cao Cao asked angrily.

Cao Zhen turned over and dismounted, knelt down in front of Cao Cao, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, the pottery thief suddenly attacked the city, the city wall was broken, Yan Yan's troops were insufficient, and he failed to prevent the Wei army from breaking through the city, and he was also beheaded by the Wei general Chen Qingzhi, and the enemy army has fully rushed into the city, we can't resist it, as long as we abandon the city and break through." ”

At this moment, Cao Cao felt a thunderbolt fall from the top of his head, hitting his head, instantly splitting him into seven meat and eight vegetables, his brain was buzzing, and he was almost unsteady.

He hurriedly took a few deep breaths, tried his best to calm down the shock in his heart, and asked in a deep voice: "What about the prince, the enemy army is bombarding the city, why didn't the prince lead the whole army to the east gate earlier, why did he let the Wei army break through the gap so easily?" ”

In the face of Cao Cao's angry questioning, Cao Zhen couldn't cover up for Cao Ang, so he had to say truthfully: "At that time, the Wei army was attacking the city, Yan Yan did send people to the prince's mansion several times to ask for help, and I also rushed to report to the prince, but I didn't want the prince to lock himself and Miss Nama in the palace, and no one was allowed to enter. ”

Speaking of this, Cao Cao was so angry that his face was red, and he couldn't help but scold: "This unassuming nonsense, at such a critical moment, he dares to ignore the military situation, bastard, stupid bastard thing!" ”

Cao Cao hated it to the extreme, scolded him, and asked what happened next.

Cao Zhen had to whisper: "When the prince heard that the Wei army was attacking the city, of course he was very nervous, and immediately led the army to the east gate with the general to rescue, and sent the minister to the north gate to mobilize the rest of the soldiers and horses. ”

Hearing this, Cao Cao's lungs were about to explode, and he turned back to Fa Zheng and the others and scolded: "Have you seen it, this waste is so useless, you were waiting to persuade me to make him the prince, look at it, at the critical moment, he finally showed his true face of incompetence, you have hurt me!" ”

Fa Zheng Ma Chao and others were all ashamed, as a member of the ***, they could only stand here and be scolded at this time.

On the contrary, it was Xu Huang, who still maintained a little calm, and persuaded him: "Your Majesty is angry, it is useless to blame the prince now, Chang'an can't help but save it, and the prince can't ignore it, so let's quickly raise an army and enter the city."

Only then did Cao Cao calm down his anger, gritted his teeth and led the army out of the camp and went straight to Chang'an City.

Just when Cao Cao led the army against the flow of defeated soldiers and rushed to the north gate, he ran into Xiahoudun and Ma Yunlu, and escaped with a group of defeated soldiers.

Behind them, a large number of Wei troops also pursued out, and over the north gate of Chang'an, the imperial flag of the Wei character was raised.

The various scenes in front of him mean that the north gate of Chang'an has also fallen.

Cao Cao gradually felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart, he felt that the fall of Chang'an was a foregone conclusion, and no matter how hard he tried, it would be useless.

"How can this be, how can this be, God, what did my Cao Cao do wrong, why are you always on the side of the potter, why?"

Cao Cao looked up to the sky, full of grief and indignation, and the generals on the left and right were also disgraced.

Ahead, Xiahoudun and Ma Yunlu had come one after another, and Xiahoudun was hit by an arrow wound again in his left eye, and the injury was tragic.

Cao Cao had no choice but to suppress his grief and anger, and hurriedly sent someone to send Xiahoudun to the Jiaojiao camp for treatment.

At this time, Cao Cao suddenly found that among the generals, among the generals who escaped, he couldn't see his son Cao Ang.

"What about the prince, where is the prince?" Cao Cao asked with some panic.

It was only at this time that Ma Yunlu stepped forward and said silently: "Your Majesty, Yunlu bumped into the pottery thief who was chasing and killing the prince in the chaotic army, Yunlu intercepted the pottery thief and told the prince to go first, who thinks that the prince is not self-sufficient, he has to kill the pottery thief, but he doesn't want to be captured alive by the enemy general Wei Chi Gong who killed him halfway, and at this moment he should have fallen into the hands of the pottery thief, as for life and death, Yunlu also does not know." ”

Click!

Another thunderbolt slammed into Cao Cao's head, making him dizzy, so angry and ashamed that he almost vomited blood.

That's none other than his son Cao Cao, the crown prince of Great Qin.

Even if he is not angry, no matter how useless he is, he is still the prince of Great Qin, and he has an extraordinary status.

Now, the dignified prince of Great Qin was captured alive by the pottery thief and became a prisoner of the pottery merchant, if this is spread, the national prestige of Great Qin will be lost, and the face of Cao Cao, the emperor of Great Qin, will also be lost, and the hearts of the people and the army will be greatly impacted!

It's just a matter of losing Chang'an City, even the crown prince has been lost, and such a heavy loss has reached the point that Cao Cao can't bear it.

"You-why didn't you save the prince when you saw death!?" Under the impact of endless indignation, Cao Cao lost his mind a little and scolded Ma Yunlu and asked.

Ma Yunlu frowned, a trace of grievance flashed in his eyes, but he said coldly: "Yunlu has done his best, it is the prince who can't measure himself, and Yunlu can't save him, Your Majesty has to blame Yunlu, and Yunlu can't help it." ”

Cao Cao was furious, pointed at Ma Yunlu and scolded: "You, you, you-you dare to talk to me like this, you are so bold!" ”

In the face of Cao Cao's dragon face and anger, Ma Yunlu did not ask for guilt, nor did he speak, but only stood there indifferently.

Ma Chao next to him was a little panicked, and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "My sister spoke unintentionally, she bumped into Your Majesty, and asked Your Majesty for forgiveness." Chao Yuan led an army into the city and rescued the prince. ”

Cao Cao was furious and wanted to cure Ma Yunlu's crime, but Ma Chao stopped in front of him, which made him immediately calm down.

The thoughts in his mind were flying, and he realized that the fall of Chang'an City was a foregone conclusion, and it was very likely that Guanzhong would not be able to hold it, so he could only retreat to Longxi for now, relying on the land of Longxi in Liangzhou to continue to resist the Wei army.

And the Ma clan, precisely in the area of Longxi, Liangzhou, has a huge influence, and at this time, it can't chill the hearts of the Ma clan because of a moment of anger.

"I have to endure, I have to endure, it's not terrible to lose Chang'an, it's not terrible to lose my son, it's not terrible to lose the support of the Ma family, it's all over, for the sake of the overall situation, I must endure ......it."

The remaining shred of reason burned rapidly in Cao Cao's heart, and in the blink of an eye, it had swallowed up those impulses and anger, allowing Cao Cao to calm down again.

After a while, Cao Cao's fist flicked weakly, and he sighed: "This is really no wonder Yun Lu, and no wonder you don't do your best, it's all Ang'er's lack of courage, he is too disappointing to me." ”

Ma Chao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and once again generously asked Cao Cao to fight, wanting to enter the city to save Cao Ang, and arrogantly claiming to recapture Chang'an.

Fa Zheng hurriedly persuaded: "Your Majesty, the pottery thieves have fully invaded Chang'an, the enemy is outnumbered, and it is not wise to forcibly recapture Chang'an, the only way to do this is to gather the remaining soldiers and horses, preserve their strength as much as possible, retreat to the front line of Chencang first, and then make plans." ”

Cao Cao also took a light breath and sighed weakly: "Filial piety is reasonable, spread my will, and the whole army will retreat to Chencang." ”

The order was passed down, and the remnants of the Qin army, who were panicked, abandoned the camp of the horns and fled all the way to the west.

Before the sun set, Cao Cao glanced back again, only to see the outline of Chang'an City, faintly disappearing at the end of the horizon.

Cao Cao's eyes were full of unwillingness, his expression was so reluctant, and in the end, he could only watch his imperial capital disappear from view.

"Tao thief, you actually forced me to this part, my Cao Cao will not admit defeat, you wait, I will take back my Chang'an City sooner or later, sooner or later-"
