Inside the big tent, it fell into a desolation!

In fact, Cao Cao had long expected the outcome of Xiahoudun, but when he heard this result with his own ears, it was still difficult to accept.

"General Xiahou's body, have you two explored it clearly?"

Cao Cao's slender eyes stared at the two scouts in front of him, forcibly suppressing the anger of the burning sky in his heart, "Do you two know the whereabouts of Zidan and Boren?" ”

"The villain was incompetent and failed to find the body of General Xiahou. When Zidan and Beren broke through, they died in the chaos, and the bodies of the two generals were also missing. ”

The two scouts kneeling on the ground trembled like chaff, and one of the scouts whispered in a trembling voice.

Hearing the words of the scout's report, all the civil and military in the big tent sighed and sighed in their hearts.

Hearing the news of Xiahoudun's death, and thinking that Guan Yu was very likely to die on the battlefield, Liu Bei's eyes became more and more red, and the whole person was filled with sadness, desolation, and heartache.

"Stand down!"

Hearing the voice of the leader of the Cao League, the two scouts walked away from the ghost gate, hurriedly thanked them, and hurriedly withdrew from the big tent.

"Right now, the Liangzhou army is coming from all directions, and the road for our army to retreat to the sea is again cut off by the enemy."

Slowly looking around at the civil and military forces in the tent, Cao Cao, who hated and was unbearable, asked in a murderous voice: "Right now, our army is in danger of exhaustion and overturning, what is the best way for you...... Help our army turn the corner and escape? ”

The Cao Liu coalition army lowered their heads in shame, they really couldn't think of a way to break through and resist the enemy.

After a long time......

Just when Cao Cao was on the verge of rage, ready to lash out at any moment......

"My lord! Why didn't our army break out of the encirclement before the Liangzhou army was surrounded on all sides?

As seen by Ejia, our army can be divided into two routes, one to the northeast and the other to the east. ”

Guo Jia said in a solemn voice: "Break through from the east with a partial division, on the road, drum up momentum, and make a move to forcibly attack Zhang Liao's department.

As such, Zhao Yun was deeply afraid that Zhang Liao's department would lose, and he would inevitably raise troops to rescue Zhang Liao's department.

Our army can take advantage of Zhao Yun's division of troops to break through to the northeast and enter the territory of Qingzhou Beihai State. ”

Cao Cao nodded slightly, neither agreeing with Guo Jia's remarks nor objecting...... Fengxiao's strategy is a dangerous strategy, if it cannot succeed, the army will inevitably fall into a place of no return.

"Feng Xiao underestimated the Liangzhou Army too much! The first line of Linyi, Kaiyang and Yangdu on the west bank of Yishui is a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

If our army agitates for a big eastward advance, Zhang Liao's headquarters will inevitably defend according to the danger and will not fight a head-on battle with our army.

Even if Zhao Yun can't see through our army's intentions, Li Mu and Pang Tong will also have insight into our army's intentions.

Presumably, Zhao Yun's troops did not attack the front line of Linjiang, but went west to defend Laiwu and Gaixian, which was from the hands of Li Mu or Pang Tong. ”

Xun Yu shook his head, and said in a deep voice that disagreed: "In comparison, the terrain on the first line of Laiwu and Gaixian is easier to defend and difficult to attack than the terrain on the first line of Kaiyang, Yangdu, and Linyi.

If our army really broke through in two ways......

At that time, if Zhao Yun's troops did not go to the rescue of Zhang Liao's troops, and Li Mu, Huang Zhong, and Wang Ping's soldiers and horses would come together, our army would inevitably be broken by the enemy army one by one!

Moreover, the warships on the eastern coast had already been destroyed by the Liangzhou army, and the retreat route of our army was only northeast.

Judging from the current situation, the Liangzhou Army has already gained insight into the retreat route of our army, how could Zhao Yun's department go to the rescue of Zhang Liao's department? ”

Cao Cao nodded, still not speaking.

"What Mr. Wen Ruo said is very true! Girls are small

Before Zhang Liao's troops captured Linyi and Kaiyang, the route of our army's retreat was still northeast and east. Today, our army has only one way to retreat to the northeast. ”

Cheng Yu agreed with the proposal: "At present, Zhao Yun's troops only need to defend the front line of Banyang, Laiwu, and Gaixian according to the danger, and our army will not be able to break through." How could the enemy easily abandon a dangerous defensive line? ”

Cao Cao and Xun You nodded in agreement, judging from the current deployment route of the Liangzhou army, the enemy army had indeed seen through their intentions.

There was a brief silence in the hall!

After a hundred breaths......

"My lord!

From Rencheng to Nanwuyang and Feiguo, it is all flat terrain. If our army does not retreat in time, once the enemy's cavalry comes by surprise, it may be difficult to resist! ”

Xun Yu, who locked his eyebrows, said in a deep voice: "What Yu sees......

Our army immediately moved to the north, retreated to the front line of Mount Tai, took advantage of the mountainous terrain, defended according to the danger, waited for the opportunity, and waited for the opportunity to break through! ”

"What Mr. Wenruo said is extremely true!"

"I'll wait, seconding what Mr. Wen Ruo said!"

Cheng Yu thought less, and even agreed with the second sentence; The vast majority of the civil and military forces of the Cao-Liu coalition army also seconded the proposal.

Xun Yu's proposal can only solve the immediate dilemma, but it cannot guarantee the future survival of the entire army.

Cao Cao nodded slightly, and for a while, he still couldn't make up his mind.

However, in comparison, Xun Yu's strategy of entering the army is a little more secure than Guo Jia's proposal.

"Xuande, what do you think?"

Cao Cao, who couldn't make up his mind, turned around and asked.

"Yun Chang is afraid of being poisoned by the enemy, and his mind is in chaos, and the advance and retreat of the army is ...... But it's up to Mende! Liu Bei, whose eyes were moist and his eyes were red, sighed sadly.

"Alas......"

Cao Cao sighed and was about to make a decision......

"Lord, my subordinates have a plan, or they can temporarily retire from the Liangzhou Army!"

At this moment, a gloomy voice came from a position close to the door of the big tent.

Everyone followed the sound and looked, it turned out to be Sima Yi.

"Zhong Da and let's hear it!"

Since Sima Yi defected to the Yanzhou army, Cao Cao has not been reused for this person, and he always feels that this Sima Zhongda is a person with a deep city. Now, with the current enemy, he can't care about so much.

"When Li Dao and Guo Yan were destroyed, Li Mu and the thief took Princess Hongnong for himself. Princess Tang of Hongnong is the imperial sister-in-law of the Son of Heaven and has been protected by the Son of Heaven. ”

Sima Yi, who had a gloomy face, said in a gloomy voice: "As far as his subordinates know, Li Mu is very fond of Princess Hongnong.

The lord can let the Son of Heaven come forward and personally advise the thief in order to delay the enemy's advance.

Although Li Mu had the intention of rebellion, he also wanted to justifiably ban the status of the Son of Heaven. Therefore, Li Mu will definitely look at the face of the Son of Heaven and will not attack our army.

At that time, taking advantage of the enemy's sluggishness, the lord sent people to Chang'an City to intercede with Princess Hongnong...... In order to get the opportunity for our army to withdraw to Qingzhou, Beihai and Donglai County. ”

Cao Cao nodded slightly, thinking about the feasibility of this.

Cao Liu and the allied army of the civil and military forces whispered.
