The shouting and killing sound from the west gate made Cao Hong frightened, and he had an ominous premonition in his heart.

"What's the situation?? How could Simon have a shout of killing? Cao Hong grabbed his lieutenant and asked.

The adjutant general also didn't know what the situation was, and replied: "General, the last general really doesn't know what's going on!" ”

"Let's go investigate! Fast! Cao Hong immediately asked the adjutant general to investigate.

The adjutant general knew the importance of the matter, and went directly without Cao Hong's orders.

Cao Hong thought to himself that it must not be a bad situation, otherwise he would be a sinner of Cao Cao or the entire Cao family.

Today may be Cao Hong's most unlucky day, the deputy general didn't take long to return, and his face was full of panic.

The adjutant general said softly in Cao Hong's ear: "General, the West Gate has been captured by Liu Jun, and Xiao Pei can't hold it!" Let's get out! ”

The deputy general was kind, he did this because he didn't want other soldiers to know the situation, so that Cao Hong could leave quickly, and maybe there was a glimmer of life.

"What!" Cao Hong didn't appreciate the lieutenant's kindness, and hurriedly shouted: "Impossible! Where did Liu Jun come from Ximen! ”

The adjutant general's face was black, and this General Cao was already confused, and he didn't realize his good intentions. Well, now that all the soldiers know about it, morale is definitely down.

The soldiers defending the city heard it one by one and stopped their attacks.

The adjutant general finally stubbornly said: "The enemy Lu Bu with a large number of cavalry took advantage of the reinforcements of our army General Xu Gongming to come to support and suddenly attacked the city gate, Lu Bu was extremely brave, General Xu Gongming could not stop it, was seriously injured by Lu Bu, and his troops have retreated. Xiao Pei's west gate was captured. ”

Cao Hong's brain was almost blank, and he finally understood why the deputy general was talking softly in his ear just now, this was to let him go first.

"General, what are we going to do?" The adjutant general hurriedly asked.

Cao Hong can't hear it anymore, his heart is now Xiaopei lost, the eastern gate of Yanzhou was captured by Liu Jun, Liu Jun can invest more troops in Yanzhou, and Yanzhou has no way to defend it.

"Oh my God! Why don't you open your eyes! Cao Hong looked up to the sky and roared angrily.

Cao Hong now knew that he had encountered the calculations of Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, and Lu Bu, and was attacked by them together. And he himself made a fatal mistake, he took it for granted, did not take the importance of Ximen to heart, and transferred all the defenders of Ximen, and was attacked by Lu Bu.

He was the most guilty of this battle.

"Damn Lu Bu! Prime Minister, I'm sorry for you! Cao Hong sat on the ground like a dead man, and almost hid his face and wept bitterly.

Xiao Pei's defenders all looked at Cao Hong numbly, they didn't know why their main general was like this.

"Kill! Death to the one with the blade! Lu Bu's voice came from a high voice.

As soon as the wolf rider entered Xiaopei, he rushed to kill frantically, and there were not many troops in Xiaopei City to stop it, and the wolf rider of Bingzhou rode directly to the east gate unimpeded.

Guan Yu and Zhao Yun also heard the shouting and killing sound in Xiao Pei City, and the two of them suddenly came to their senses, how much time has passed, they can finally break through Xiao Pei.

"Our army has entered the city, Xiaopei is about to break through, and the whole army will attack!" Zhao Yun directly gave the order for a general attack in the rear.

Countless Liu Jun brandished weapons and carried cloud ladders to attack Xiaopeicheng.

The defenders of Xiaopeicheng are already in chaos, and they all know that Xiaopeicheng can no longer hold it, and they don't know what to do now.

"General, withdraw!" The lieutenant shook Cao Hong, who was like a dead man.

Cao Hong smiled bitterly: "Withdraw? Where did you evacuate? Xiao Pei can't hold it anymore, there is no hope in Yanzhou, where else will I Cao Zilian retreat? ”

"General, if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your brothers, if you don't retreat, we will all explain here." The adjutant general didn't want to see Cao Hong so pessimistic.

Cao Hong seemed to be in spirit, stood up and said to all the soldiers: "You are all good brothers and comrades-in-arms of this general. I would have been proud of my brothers. ”

The adjutant general's heart tightened, he had never seen Cao Hong like this, and he had already guessed what Cao Hong was going to do.

"Xiao Pei can't hold it, Ben will be the main general, and he has the responsibility to defend the land, you are all subordinates, and it has nothing to do with you. Surrender y'all! That's right, Cao Hong just made them surrender, and he himself chose to take all the responsibility.

And the result of this responsibility is death!

Cao Hong thought of using his death to clear his name.

"General, don't!" The adjutant general and the soldiers all knelt down for Cao Hong.

After such a long time together, Cao Hong and his subordinates have established a deep friendship.

"Bastard thing, Ben won't listen to his orders! Do you want to rebel? Cao Hong was furious.

"I can't wait to watch the general die!" The lieutenants were in tears.

"If you don't listen to the general's orders, the general will die in front of you!" Cao Hong drew his sword and held it across his neck.

"General!" Everyone was shocked.

"Let's go! Survive, pass a message to the prime minister, and say that I, Cao Zilian, am sorry for him! Walk! Cao Hong roared angrily.

The adjutant general and Cao Jun's soldiers all shed tears, and then walked down the city wall according to Cao Hong's orders.

When they had gone down the wall, they threw all their weapons on the ground and sat down on the ground against the wall.

Many soldiers who recalled Cao Hong's kindness to him burst into tears.

Since Cao's army had no one to defend on the city wall, the soldiers of Liu's army on the east side of the city gate all climbed the city gate.

As soon as they came up, they found that Cao Hong was the only one on the city wall, and they knew that it was a big fish by looking at his armor, and the soldiers of the Liu army quickly surrounded Cao Hong, and capturing him alive was much greater than the battle feat of beheading.

Guan Yu and Zhao Yun, as well as Lu Bu and Pang Tong, all climbed the city wall and came to Cao Hong.

Cao Hong looked at them with a smile and said, "You guys are finally here!" ”

"Cao Zilian, you have no way back! Your troops have surrendered, so you better surrender. Pang Tong came out and said.

"I ordered them to surrender, and I ask you not to embarrass them, they are all obeying my orders." Cao Hong said lightly.

Zhao Yun said: "My lord is the lord of the world, and if they surrender, they are my lord's people, how can I embarrass them?" ”

"Then I'm relieved." The big stone in Cao Hong's heart was put down.

Cao Hong is a rare talent in Cao Cao's family, if he can be recruited, he can not only recruit a talent, but also hit Cao Cao's morale, of course, Pang Tong will not let go, said: "Cao Zilian, you have always had a brave life, and now Your Majesty is thirsty for talent, as long as you abandon the dark and turn to the light, you will definitely be reused." ”

"Haha, Ben will stay here, not to surrender. I want to tell you that the Cao family only has generals who died in battle, not cowards who surrendered! Kill! Cao Hong brandished his sword and killed Pang Tong.

Pang Tong hurriedly dodged, and Cao Hong took the opportunity to rush to the city wall, and then jumped directly from the city wall.

"Bang."

Cao Hong fell to the ground, but there was no pain on his face, as if he was relieved.

"What a man!" Guan Yu couldn't help but praise, this is the fate that a military general should have, and he would rather die than be a prisoner.

Pang Tong could only shake his head and sigh, it was a pity.

"Xiao Pei has been captured, and the east gate of Yanzhou has been opened!" Zhao Yun said as he waved his writing weapon.

"Mighty! Mighty! All the Liu soldiers let out a hearty laugh.
