Liu Biao fell into a coma, and the Cai Mao brothers, who were in control of the soldiers and horses, were killed.

Regardless of whether others support Liu Cong or Liu Qi, now in Xiangyang, Liu Bei's voice is the greatest.

He had Zhang Fei by his side, and he brought 5,000 soldiers and horses from Xinye.

These 5,000 soldiers and horses, although they were given to him by Liu Biao before, but in these days in Xinye, Liu Bei has completely subdued them.

The news from Jingzhou is now transmitted to Xudu by Zhong Xuan.

Although Cai Mao died, Zhong Miao did not return to Xudu.

The situation over there in Xu Du, Zhong Xuan also heard about it, and it would be useless for him to go back now, so it was better to continue to stay in Jingzhou, maybe there would be a turnaround.

Xu Du City!

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Cao Cao and others did not sleep all night.

"It's dawn, you guys go, don't leak the news of my return for the time being." Cao Cao waved his hand and let Xun Yu and the others leave.

After running in the mountains and forests for several days, and not sleeping all night, Cao Cao's current body is no longer as good as it was at the beginning, but it is a little unsupportable.

After Xun Yu and the others left, he immediately went to the room and fell asleep.

Although it is possible that Zhao Jun will immediately kill him and rush into the Prime Minister's Mansion to take his life, Cao Cao believes Xun You and others.

After sleeping well and nourishing his spirits, he had the heart to fight against Zhao Hui.

Since Xun You said that he could delay for at least one day, then he could delay it for one day, and everything would be said when he woke up.

Out of town!

Early in the morning, as Xun Yu expected.

Zhao Hui rode a yellow lion and came to the city of Xudu.

"I will only kill one thief, open the city gate, and you will not die."

"In the first battle of Guandu, Cao thief assassinated the Son of Heaven, such a national thief, why do you still want to serve him."

Zhao Hui's voice was very loud, and the soldiers on the city wall could hear it clearly.

It's just that Xun Yu Cheng Yu and the others are on the city wall at the moment, even if they agree in their hearts and want to surrender, they don't dare to speak, they just look at the Zhao army under the city indifferently and fearfully.

They were all new soldiers, and even with the city walls to back them up, they were still terrified in the face of the army beneath them.

"General, Duke Cao is not in the city." Xun You stood at the head of the city and shouted.

"If you want to kill Cao Gong, you can look elsewhere. This is where the capital of the country is, and if the general still has the Son of Heaven in his heart, he implores him to retreat. ”

Zhao Hui said: "Since Mr. said that Cao Thief is not in the city, can you dare to open the city and let me enter the city to search?" If the Cao thief is really not in the city, or if I am asked to kill the Cao thief, I will immediately withdraw my troops and return to Jizhou. ”

Xun You said: "It's okay for the general to enter the city, but the army behind the general can't enter the city." ”

"Sir, you mean that you want me to go into the city alone?" Zhao Hui asked rhetorically.

"My lord." Looking behind him, Xu Shu and the others immediately said.

On the city wall, Xun You said: "The Son of Heaven is in the national capital, how can the army of the princes enter the city, and I hope the general will forgive me." ”

"What if I want to lead an army into the city?" Zhao Hui said.

"Then I can only play the Son of Heaven and say that the general is a rebellious minister and thief. The general only had to lead the army to attack the city. ”

"Xun You, you must know that Xu Ducheng can't stop my army." Zhao Hui said: "I don't attack the city now, I just don't want to kill too much." ”

"You know that the general is merciful, but where the national capital is located, the soldiers and horses behind the general must not enter the city. If the general is afraid that I will set up an ambush in the city, he can bring his guards into the city, which is a national gift and cannot be retreated. Xun Yu said.

"The lord must not take risks, and the last general is willing to enter the city to search for Cao Cao's whereabouts."

Dian Wei was on the side of Zhao Hui, his black whirlwind was also holding his head high, and his halberds were hanging on both sides of the black whirlwind.

Zhao Hui couldn't venture into the city, but he could.

"Don't worry, Fengxiao, did you say Cao Cao is back?" Zhao Hui asked.

After Guo Jia and Zhao Yun sent the remaining grain and grass to Puyang, they also immediately rushed to Xudu.

"All roads have been blocked by us, and it is impossible for Cao Cao to come back." Zhang Wangdao.

"Not necessarily, if Cao Cao walks the mountain road, our people may not be able to know."

"The mountain road is not easy to walk, but the distance is also short, according to the calculation from Puyang, these days, it is enough for Cao Cao to return to Xudu." Guo Jiadao.

"If Cao Cao has already returned to Xudu, why doesn't he show up?" Xu Shu said.

Guo Jia said: "It's very simple, let's think he hasn't come back yet." But this is just speculation, Xun You is delaying time now, Cao Cao may be back, but he didn't think of a way to deal with us, and he may not have come back, Xun You deliberately delayed time, wanting to wait for Cao Cao to return. ”

"Shall we attack, then?" Dian Wei said, he wanted to attack immediately and enter Xu Du.

"The best choice is naturally to surrender without a fight."

Xun You did capture Zhao Hui's psychology.

Guo Jia said: "My lord, you can make a feint today, and send people to sneak into the city at night to find out the news." ”

"If Xun You wants to delay time, let him delay for a day, and see what other strategies he has."

Xun You and the others have no strategy, and Guo Jia Jia Xu is also very clear that with Xu Du's current strength, even if Cao Cao returns, he will not be able to stop Zhao Hui's army, otherwise Jia Xu will not suggest that Zhao Hui lead an army of 20,000 to come.

When Zhao Hui and Guo Jia were discussing, on the city wall, Xun You, Cheng Yu and others also looked solemn.

Cheng Yu said: "Gongda, will Zhao Hui enter the city?" ”

Xun You was sure: "He definitely won't come in alone." ”

"And what if he leads his troops to attack the city?"

"Don't worry, Zhao Hui won't attack."

However, Xun You's words fell, and the full favor on the side said: "The Zhao army is going to attack." ”

He saw Zhao Jun begin to move.

A group of soldiers began to press against the city wall.

"Gongda, this ......" Cheng Yu pointed to Zhao Jun outside the city.

"Don't worry, this should be Zhao Jun's feint." Xun You's complexion remained unchanged.

He trusted his own judgment, and looking at Zhao Hui's several battles, it was rare that he would start to forcibly attack the city as soon as he arrived.

He trusted his own judgment, and Zhao Hui cherished the lives of the soldiers below him more than them.

"Block." Full of favors commanded on the city walls.

Although Wang Cai, the commander of the cavalry, proposed to open the city and surrender yesterday, he was still standing on the city wall at this moment.

He hoped to open the gates of the city and surrender to avoid unnecessary casualties.

But if there is a fight, he will not back down.

"Oh no, no, the Zhao army is attacking the city."

On the city wall, Xun You, Cheng Yu, Manzhong and others were not surprised.

But in the city, after hearing that the Zhao army was attacking the city, it was already in chaos.

Those ordinary people, close the door of the house, and even blocked it with stones, sticks, tables and chairs behind the door.

And those civil officials were also panicked.

Many have already ordered servants to hide their money from their homes.

Leave only something worthless.

What was once a luxurious mansion is now empty.

Among the servants, there were even some who stole things and fled.

In the palace, everyone has become in a hurry.

Those palace maids, eunuchs, carrying things, if it weren't for the guards, they would have escaped with their things.

In the entire imperial city, Liu Yin, who was only five years old, was still holding a wooden sword and chopping at a cedar tree, not afraid.
