When Zhang Xiu attacked Cao Cao, Cao Cao's left army was led by Cao Hong and Zhang Liao, and the right army was led by Yin Ban and Xu Huang.

At that time, there were enemy soldiers on the left and right armies shouting and attacking, and they did not find out the situation for a while, and when they sent troops to resist the enemy, they found that the enemy soldiers were only two or three hundred people, and as soon as they saw them dispatching, they ran away.

They expected that the Chinese army might be attacked by Zhang Xiu's main force, and hurriedly led troops to rescue.

When they arrived at the camp of the Chinese army, they saw that the soldiers and horses were scattered and fled in all directions.

They searched everywhere, but they didn't find Cao Cao, and later learned that Cao Cao had fled to Wuyin.

Yu Ban asked Cao Hong to lead the troops to Wuyin to rescue Cao Cao, and he led the troops to resist Zhang Xiu's pursuit of the soldiers.

Zhang Xiu came to chase with hundreds of cavalry and met Yu Ban.

Yu Ban only had a few hundred people at that time, and he didn't fight him to the death, but fought and retreated, delaying time so that Cao Hong could lead his troops to Wuyin.

Because of Yu Ban's resistance, Zhang Xiu couldn't move quickly, and he didn't chase after chasing for a while.

Yu Ban asked the soldiers to support each other's wounded brothers, lined up neatly, beat drums and marched to Wuyin.

On the way, Yu Ban saw more than a dozen people being robbed, and even the clothes they were wearing were robbed, and under questioning, he knew that they were robbed by Qingzhou soldiers.

When he heard this, he was furious, led the troops to surround those Qingzhou soldiers, and scolded: "You are now Cao Gong's soldiers, not the thieves of the past, why do you still rob others?" ”

Because the Qingzhou soldiers were led by Cao Hong, and Cao Hong was Cao Cao's younger brother, Yu Ban was just a general with a foreign surname, and he didn't take him seriously, and the Qingzhou soldiers replied arrogantly: "What do you have to do with it?" ”

"Quickly return the looted things, otherwise I will sue Cao Gong."

Although the Qingzhou soldiers were led by Cao Hong, they were also afraid of Cao Cao, and when they saw that Yu Ban said this, they had no choice but to hand over all the things they had just robbed, and then ran to Cao Hong to sue Yu for the right to ban chaos.

Yu Ban was only a lieutenant at that time, and he was not a relative of the Cao family, and he did not dare to kill soldiers like Li Xian killed Cao Renjunhou.

After returning to Wuyin, Yu Ban was not in a hurry to find Cao Cao to defend himself, but first built the camp to prevent Zhang Xiu's soldiers and horses from attacking, and then went to Cao Cao to explain the situation.

Cao Cao also knew what the virtue of the Qingzhou soldiers was, and he praised the ban: "The difficulty of the water, I am very anxious, the general is in chaos, fighting for violence, there is an immovable festival, although the ancient famous general, it is nothing more than that." ”

But Cao Cao did not punish the Qingzhou soldiers, but only asked Cao Hong to restrain more.

Because the Qingzhou soldiers were compiled by the Yellow Turban soldiers in the past, and now the soldiers are defeated, if they are punished, they are afraid that it will cause the Qingzhou soldiers to mutiny, which will be more troublesome.

Cao Ren was sent by Cao Cao to attack the adjacent county seat, and he led 3,000 men to attack Xi'e County and Bowang County, capturing more than 3,000 men and women.

Knowing that Zhang Xiu surrendered and rebelled, and after Cao Cao's troops were defeated and fled to Wuyin, he hurriedly led his troops to Wuyin.

Cao Cao's army was defeated, Cao Angdianwei and Cao Anmin died in battle, and the morale of the army was low, and no one wanted to fight, but they all wanted to return to the army.

Cao Cao knew that he could no longer fight Zhang Xiu at this time, so he led his troops back to Xudu.

He led the soldiers and horses to just come out of Wuyin, and the scout came to report that Zhang Xiu led 3,000 men and horses to chase after him.

Cao Cao saw that his morale was depressed, and he had no intention of fighting, so he only led his men and horses to move quickly.

Cao Ren's men and horses did not experience Zhang Xiu's rebellion, nor did they have that sense of failure. Cao Ren said to Cao Cao: "Gong go ahead, and Ren Ke repel the pursuers." ”

Cao Cao also asked Yu Ban to lead a thousand people to help Cao Ren, ambushed the soldiers, and suddenly killed when Zhang Xiu chased after him.

Zhang Xiu's soldiers and horses thought that Cao Cao was frightened, and ran all the way to chase after him, but he didn't expect to kill such a strong fighting force, and he was beaten and quickly turned around and fled.

When the army returned to Wuyang and camped for the night, Cao Cao gathered the generals to discuss the matter and talk about Zhang Xiu's betrayal.

All the generals were suspicious, and they didn't know why Zhang Xiu had already surrendered, so why he betrayed again.

Cao Cao took out Li Xian's letter to Cao Ang for everyone to see, saying that it was found on Cao Ang.

Cao Ren first read the letter and scolded: "Li Xian, a thief, actually colluded with Zhang Xiu to harm Ming Gong, it must be that he and Zhang Xiu conspired to deceive Ming Gong and then attack Ming Gong." He became good friends with Zi Xiu because he wanted to keep Zi Xiu from going out with the army, and harm Ming Gong alone. Such a traitor, please kill Ming Gong! ”

Cao Ren was still resentful after scolding, and his teeth rattled.

After reading the letter, the generals also thought that Li Xian wanted to murder Cao Cao and agreed to kill Li Xian.

Only after Guo Jia read the letter, Li Xian rebelled or not, and he knew it in his heart. Cao Cao's thoughts, he also knows. So he didn't speak, just quietly listened to the generals scolding Li Xian.

After listening to everyone's words, Cao Cao sighed and said: "It's not my daughter-in-law, but also my beloved general, how can I bear to kill him." ”

"If Ming Gong doesn't kill Li Xian, do you want Li Xian to kill Gong? Now that Li Xian killed Gongzi Ang, shouldn't Ming Gong avenge Gongzi Ang? ”

Cao Renqing's muscles burst out, and he couldn't wait to behead Li Xianzhi immediately.

Since Li Xian in Xuzhou beheaded his military candidates, he hated Li Xian to the core, but Li Xian was already Cao Cao's son-in-law, and his position was now higher than him, so he had been forbearing. Now that there is a chance to kill Li Xian, of course he will seize the opportunity.

Cao Cao sighed again, squeezed out a few tears in his eyes, choked and said: "Ang'er, you only raised filial piety last year, and the talents you have learned in the past twenty years have not yet been displayed, but now you are leaving me, how can I be good." ”

After a pause, he wiped away a handful of tears and said to Cao Ren fiercely: "Zixiao, you lead three hundred horsemen back to Xudu in a hurry, and take them out of the city, and then ...... It is said that he died in battle. ”

"No." Cao Ren smiled on his face, took the order, ordered to go, ordered three hundred elite horsemen, and rushed back to Xudu overnight.

Because Li Xian had always been worried about the war situation in Nanyang, he sent a scout horse to Nanyang to follow up and listen to the situation.

When Tanma reported that Zhang Xiu surrendered and rebelled, and Cao Cao was defeated and fled, he sighed in his heart: "Oh no, Zixiu may not be able to escape the catastrophe of history." ”

Less than half a day later, another horse probe reported that Cao Ang and Dian Wei were killed in battle, and Cao Cao was fine.

Li Xian's heart sank, both grieving for Cao Ang's death and worrying about his current situation.

Cao Cao's suspicion and hostility towards him had already been felt by him. It's just that Cao Ang was there before, and he had a relatively close relationship with Cao Ang, so Cao Cao didn't take action against him.

Now that Cao Ang is gone, Cao Cao may not let him go.

In particular, the two letters he wrote to Cao Ang, if they fell into Cao Cao's hands, they would definitely be a reason to kill him.

He pondered in his heart, should he be willing to be killed, or should he flee for his life?

Will Cao Cao kill himself regardless of his daughter Cao Min, as he guessed?

Although he is a human being, everyone has a desire to survive, and he can't be killed like this.

In the world of the late Eastern Han Dynasty, there are only three people who can trust Li Xian now: Gao Shun, Cao Ang, and Xun Yu.

Of course, Cao Min was also counted as one, but at that time, women were basically non-counselors.

Now that Cao Ang is dead, although Gao Shun is by his side, Gao Shun doesn't know Cao Cao and can't give him objective advice.

He went to visit Xun Yu.
