The plan was decided, and after letting Cao Pi retire first, Cao Cao announced all the plans to Cao Ang.

Only then did Cao Ang understand that the defenders were not only his 2,000 people, but also the 3,000 people ambushed by Xiahou Yuan outside the city.

That is to say, there are 5,000 defenders in total, and the enemy has a total of 20,000, and even if 15,000 can be drawn, it will be three times as much as himself.

For the defending side, this number is not huge.

What's more, his task is only to defend the city for ten days, drag the invading enemy, so that they cannot return to help.

Cao Ang immediately patted his chest and said with confidence: "Five thousand defenders resist the siege of more than 10,000 enemy troops, and naturally they are foolproof, and they can hold the city with their eyes closed." ”

Cao Cao saw that his son didn't care, his face suddenly sank, and he said sharply: "You hold Dongguan County, which is the key to capturing Pengcheng, and you can't underestimate the enemy."

If you keep it, it's a great achievement, and if you can't keep it...... You're going to have to pay for your life, you know? ”

"No!" Cao Ang hurriedly responded, but he still pondered in his heart, it was obviously very easy.

……

Everything is being arranged in an orderly manner, and even the date of the troops has been set, which is the day of the Shangyuan Festival.

According to the military order, Liu Ping was not with Cao Ang this time, but was incorporated into the siege team.

Cao Cao decided to take Liu Ping with him and let him counsel the military aircraft.

After all, Cao Cao knew very well in his heart that Cao Ang's answer at that time was Liu Ping's guidance, and Liu Ping's idea was the same as Xi Zhicai, which was very surprising.

It is also reminiscent of Liu Ping's surprise attack on Puyang, forcing Lü Bu to withdraw his troops, and later sowing discord, causing the rebels to fight among themselves, and annihilating more than 10,000 rebels without blood.

These are enough to show that Liu Ping's son-in-law is a treasure son-in-law, who will not only make money for him, but also his military strategy cannot be underestimated.

So this time he asked Liu Ping to follow him at any time.

Compared with Xi Zhicai, Cao Cao certainly believes in his son-in-law a little more.

Hearing such an arrangement, Liu Ping's mood was suddenly very beautiful.

First of all, this is not the later Battle of Wancheng and the Battle of Zhengmahan, most of the time, being by Cao Cao's side is the safest place in the world.

Secondly, his subordinates are all Tuntian soldiers, which is the worst combat power in Cao's combat sequence, so naturally he will not be assigned the task of attacking fortifications, which is just in line with his creed of "keeping his life alive".

At this time, among his subordinates, Tai Shici and Zhang Liao's identities were all ordinary lancers, and the generals who could be named were Han Hao.

As far as Han Hao himself is concerned, Han Hao is not a real general, and he spends more time dealing with government affairs for Liu Ping.

In these battles, the main task was to escape......

Although he completed the task excellently every time, this time it was a siege battle, and his experience could not be brought into play.

Cao Cao, based on a comprehensive consideration of the abilities of Liu Ping's subordinates, did not need them to siege the city, and they were not needed in all positions that could engage the enemy.

So as expected, the Tuntian Army of Rencheng County received the task of escorting grain and grass and guarding the baggage.

Of course, Liu Ping was happy about such an arrangement, and ran excitedly to tell Zhang Liao and Tai Shici.

The two were speechless on the spot.

The two of them joined forces, and even Lu Bu could be captured, and he even let the two of them escort grain and grass?

Just ask the world, who dares to come to intercept grain?

However, both of them are both wise and brave generals, looking at Liu Ping so elated, of course they can guess that the master is deliberately cultivating obscurity and hiding his edge.

Mu Xiu is in the truth that the forest wind will destroy it, they still understand.

You have robbed all the credit, what else do you want others to do?

Escort the grain and grass, escort the grain and grass, anyway, with such a master, if you want to be famous in the world, it is impossible to make immortal achievements.

All pre-war arrangements are being made in a clear and orderly manner.

But I never expected that a cold wind knocked down Cao Cao, the coach.

He had a fever every day, and he was often burned unconscious, lying in bed and unable to get out of bed, how could he ride a horse to fight?

At this time, Hua Tuo had already left and traveled the world.

Li Dangzhi was imprisoned, and after a while, he was released and punished into the army to see a doctor for the soldiers.

He caused such a big mess in the first place, if he had cut him with a knife, it would have cheapened him.

Although this person's medical skills are not as good as Hua Tuo and other famous doctors in the world, after all, he has been with Hua Tuo for several years, and he is far more than ordinary doctors, so he is more than enough to serve as a military doctor in the army.

Li Dangzhi was naturally grateful to Cao Cao for sparing him, and he no longer had the arrogance he had at that time.

Thinking of killing so many people with his own hands, he also felt guilty, and in order to calm the uneasiness in his heart, he tried his best to study pharmacy and treat Cao's soldiers.

This toss has tempered a famous medicine king through the ages, which will be praised by future generations.

Assassinating the inner house of the Shi Mansion, Li Dangzhi came out after checking Cao Cao's pulse.

There was a room of people in the outer hall, and Cao Song sat on the top.

The rest have Cao Ren and Cao Chun's brothers, as well as Cao Ang and Liu Ping's juniors, as well as more than a dozen concubines headed by Mrs. Bian.

Since yesterday, Cao Cao has been in a coma several times.

Everyone looked at Li Dangzhi nervously, only to see Li Dangzhi stroking his beard and sighing, shaking his head slightly.

Everyone was nervous, knowing that the situation was not optimistic.

At this time, I saw a little concubine next to me suddenly collapsed on the ground, crying sharply: "Master, you are still in the prime of spring and autumn, how can you say that you are gone?" You're gone, how can you ...... the slave family?"

Li Dangzhi: "??? ”

Who said that Cao Zhijun was gone?

Everyone: "??? ”

"Drag this woman out and beat her to death," Cao Song said with an angry face.

Immediately two slaves came and dragged the stupid woman out.

"How sick is my son? When will I be cured? Cao Song asked nervously.

"Hui Taigong," Li Dangzhi said: "Although Cao Yuanjun is infected with ordinary wind and cold, this condition is indeed serious, and it needs to be slowly regulated with medicine, and as for healing...... The so-called illness is like a thread, and it takes at least more than a month to judge it. ”

Cao Ren and the others who knew about the military operation immediately sighed when they heard this.

If nothing else, troops will be sent soon.

But now Cao Cao suddenly fell ill, which disrupted all plans.

If you wait for Cao Cao for a month and fight after he recovers, he will miss this year's spring ploughing if he takes Pengcheng County.

At this time, Mrs. Ding's little maid came out of the room and said timidly: "The master is awake, let Cao Ren and Cao Chun and the eldest prince Ping Gongzi go in." ”

All four of them were going to participate in the battle for Pengcheng.

Liu Ping knew that his father-in-law would definitely have arrangements, so he followed the three of them and entered the bedroom.

There was a strong smell of medicinal herbs in the room, and Mrs. Ding had been accompanying her all the time.

At this time, there was no need to pay attention to any etiquette, Mrs. Ding nodded at everyone, and stepped aside.

Cao Cao was unusually weak, with a wet cloth on his forehead, and opened his eyes slightly.

Everyone hurriedly went over and gathered around, with Cao Ren at the front.

"Military situation is urgent...... I can't wait," Cao Cao said weakly: "This expedition to Pengcheng ...... It was ...... by Cao Ren Conduct commands on my behalf...... You need to do everything you can to help ......"
