Chapter 508: Xuzhou (4)

After a day's rest, Gongsun Du led Zhang He to lead the wounded soldiers to the rear, and more than 10,000 soldiers who were intact and only suffered skin injuries rushed to Fenggao.

Rushing to Fenggao, Gongsun Du didn't even shout, so he went straight to attack the city.

"Han Meng, with your efforts to attack the city, you must take this city as soon as possible so that the wounded sergeants can recuperate."

"Yes, Ming Gong."

Han Meng and the soldiers around him were shocked when they heard this. They originally thought that Gongsun Du just wanted to take advantage of the situation to take Fenggao, but where did they think that it would be such a reason.

In the wilderness, even if there is a camp, where can it compare to the comfort of the city?

Gongsun Du with the might of yesterday's victory, drove the troops to attack the city, and there was a fierce general Han Meng personally rushed to the city, and the Cao army defending the city could not be defeated.

Two hours later, the city gate was broken, and Gongsun Du personally took action, with a group of personal soldiers, into the city, and cleared the remnants of Cao's army. When Zhang He escorted a group of wounded soldiers to arrive, Feng Gao had completely fallen into the hands of Gongsun Du, and immediately rested in the city, and sent a message to the doctors behind him to come as soon as possible. It's just that......

"Where did Cao Zhang and the others go, do you know?" Gongsun Du looked at the general of the Cao army kneeling in the hall and asked indifferently.

"Humph!"

Gongsun Du was too lazy to talk nonsense and waved his hand. When two of his own soldiers stepped forward, they were ready to drag him away.

The generals of the Cao army originally wanted to show toughness, leave a good impression, and then surrender. Na Cheng thought that Gongsun Du just asked, and was about to kill him, and he was suddenly frightened, and shouted: "Spare your life, Ben will ...... The little one knows where the three sons have gone! ”

Gongsun Du didn't look at it, but waved his hand lightly again. The soldiers immediately dragged him away and got to know him with a knife outside the house. This person's abacus is very good, however, he is just a nobody, Gongsun Du can ask is already polite, and there are 2,000 Fenggao defenders, but they can't hold it, what is the use of such hypocrites, it is better to kill them directly.

Besides, Qiao Yanglou is full of big Hans, and Cao Zhang is the person who focuses on it, and it is only a matter of time before he wants to know his movements.

"Fenggao City is not bad, although the military camp is not big enough, but there are really not many people in the city, 30,000 people can still accommodate it, we will rest here, and then go out after the lightly injured soldiers are better." After Gongsun Du walked around the city, he instructed Guo Jia.

"Yes, Ming Gong." Guo Jia answered, turned around and wanted to go to give the order.

"Wait!" Gongsun Du hurriedly stopped him.

"Ming Gong!" Guo Jia turned around, his eyes showing curiosity, obviously not puzzled why Gongsun Du stopped him.

"The tiger and leopard cavalry is the elite of the Cao army, and it is also a cavalry army, in the case of Cao Jun, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is Cao Cao's heart. However, Cao Cao went south to attack Jingzhou but did not take the tiger and leopard to ride, but ordered Cao Xiu to take it to Xuzhou, which shows that Cao Cao attaches great importance to Xuzhou, and he is worried that there will be other means, so he will summon the other five people and horses later, so they should be careful and vigilant. Gongsun Du pondered for a moment and said.

Guo Jia did not respond immediately, but his face was full of confusion.

"What's wrong?" Gongsun Du was puzzled, "Is there any problem?" Or does Bong-hyo think that something is wrong? ”

Guo Jia was thinking about it, and when he heard this, he hurriedly shook his head and said: "Ming Gong forgives the sin, Jia just thought of something else, so ......"

Gongsun Du waved his hand and said, "If you have any ideas, just say it directly, don't hide it." ”

Guo Jia smiled awkwardly and said: "My Youzhou army is strong, armor, equipment, war horses, etc., far surpassing other princes, plus sufficient food, training every morning and evening, it can be said that no sergeant can compare with it." This is also the reason why Ming Gong can be invincible! ”

"At this time, Cao's army was hit hard, and in order to fight against the Ming Duke, he had to raise troops to attack Jingzhou, and the hinterland was empty, if it was still defeated, there was only one reason."

Gongsun Du's originally puzzled face gradually converged and became solemn.

"Arrogance, soldiers, must, defeat!"

Guo Jia looked at Gongsun Du and said very seriously, word by word, like a hammer knocking on Gongsun Du's heart again and again.

Two years ago, Gongsun Du was also worried about this, but then he gradually forgot about it, or he didn't dare to think about it, but now he was mentioned by Guo Jia, and his heart immediately trembled.

Gongsun Du knew that he could see this problem, and Guo Jia and others could naturally see it, but since they didn't mention it in the past, it was obviously not necessary to mention it, and now that they mentioned it, it was naturally time to mention it.

"That'...... What should I do? Is it to be left to nature and ignore the size of the loss? Or ......" Gongsun Du frowned and pondered.

Guo Jia breathed a sigh of relief, saying these words almost exhausted all his courage, but before this expedition, the master Xizhong treated him well, and he didn't dare to forget it, so he almost dreamed it every day.

For a long time, Gongsun Du didn't say anything, just nodded at Guo Jia and left. Guo Jia smiled, nodded towards Gongsun Du's back, and then ...... The herald is gone!

Gongsun Du rested in Fenggao on this way, and the other five roads continued to attack the city south according to the plan, and at this time he had already taken three more cities.

At this time, Cao Cao had just been attacked by Liu Bei and Guan Yu inside and outside Xinye, and returned defeated.

"Prime Minister, the Youzhou Army is going south!"

"What?"

Cao Cao screamed, stood up at once, and then his face was full of pain, and he cried out: "I am also in pain~"

Then there was no sound, and he fainted in pain.

"Quick, find the doctor, be quick~" Cheng Yu was shocked, shouted, and hurriedly greeted Xu Chu, "Quick, carry the prime minister to the bed first!" ”

In a hurry, everyone carried Cao Cao into the house, and then retreated outside the house, only Xu Chu, the commander of the pro-soldiers, guarded by the window. What no one knows is that after Cao Cao lay on the bed, his breathing was a little shorter, and I don't know if his condition had worsened.

In the middle of the night, the doctor rushed over in a hot sweat. If you want to say that Cao's army is newly defeated, there are many wounded soldiers in the army, and this will be the time to be busy.

The doctor, Cheng Yu and others hurriedly saw each other, entered the house, and under Xu Chu's gaze, they were afraid to take Cao Cao's pulse.

"Huh? It seems like...... It seems like...... Didn't ......."

The doctor squinted at Xu Chu, and saw that he was staring at him viciously, so he hurriedly turned his eyes away, and then said: "Prime Minister, this is an old problem, and it will be fine when you drink the decoction and side medicine." ”

"Hmph~" Xu Chu ignored him, but his snort instantly became three points heavier. Shocked, the doctor quickly got up and left.

"How?"

Cheng Yu and Xun Yu stopped the doctor, pulled him aside, and asked in a low voice.

The doctor was frightened before, and he inevitably hesitated when he heard this, but the two misunderstood. The doctor couldn't see the change in the minds of the two, and immediately told what Fang had just said to Xu Chu.

Cheng Yu and Xun Yu let go of the doctor when they heard this, let him leave, and then the two exchanged in a low voice.

"What should I do?"

"Let's wait first, it will only take an hour or two for a pair of medicine to be decocted, and I can afford to wait."

"Okay, wait a minute."

Three hours later, Cao Cao had already fed the decoction an hour ago, but now there was no sign of awakening. Cheng Yu and Xun Yu got together again.

"What should I do?"

"You say!"

"You speak first!"

"Hmm...... Liu Bei sits on Jingzhou, and his naval army should be the first in the Han Dynasty (it's a pity that our Zhou Yu Metropolitan Governor is still playing in some places, and his name is not obvious), if you want to take Jingzhou, you can't rely on the infantry army alone. Why don't you take this opportunity to withdraw to Xuchang and stabilize the situation first? ”

"That's okay, there are not many medicinal materials in the army, and the prime minister's illness is better to return to Xuchang. Moreover, Nanyang already has more than ten counties in hand, and it will be much easier to come back next year when the Youzhou army is repulsed. ”

"Well, that's good. So that's it? ”

"Good! But...... Who will stay behind to guard Nanyang? ”

"This ...... General Xiahoudun is loyal to the prime minister, and his martial arts are superb, compared to Guan Yu, he is not much better, and the way of the art of war is also very deep, why not sit in Nanyang? ”

"Hmm...... The lord once said that General Cao Ren is good at martial arts, and he is proficient in the art of war. ”

"Good! Then General Cao Ren! ”

"The plan has been decided, why don't you leave as soon as possible?"

"Let's get off as soon as possible!"
