When the main force of the Cao-Liu coalition army withdrew from Changyi City, Xun Yu, Cao Ang, Dong Zhao and other civil and military forces in the city were preparing to withdraw their troops.

The retreat of hundreds of thousands of troops requires grain, grass, baggage, ordnance, and other strategic materials, which are naturally not a small amount.

It was not until the time of the day that the Cao-Liu coalition army was ready to retreat.

At this time, the Middle Route Army of the Eastern Expedition under Li Mu had broken through Chengwu City and was preparing to pursue it eastward.

The families who were originally in Runan County, Chenliu County, Yingchuan County and other places, because they were afraid of the iron-blooded suppression of the Liangzhou army, chose to retreat with the army without exception.

At the time of this retreat, except for the forcibly requisitioned coolies, there were very few people who fled with the army. Because, the Liangzhou army's kindness to the people has been completely spread.

Zhang Fei, Cao Xiu, Cao Zhang, Wu and An Guo led 30,000 vanguard troops, all the way through Nanwuyang, Jinxiang Kangfu Rencheng (ZOU) County, and came to the first line of Feiguo City on the west bank of Wushui, a tributary of Yishui.

When the vanguard of the Cao-Liu coalition army was preparing to cross Wushui eastward, news came from the scouts...... The Liangzhou army had already occupied the Linyi Kaiyang line on the west bank of Yishui, cutting off the eastward retreat of the Cao-Liu coalition army.

Zhang Fei and Cao Zhang, who were shocked, ordered the scouts to continue to explore the virtual and real movements of the Liangzhou army, and sent messengers to deliver a message to Cao Cao and Liu Bei.

It turned out that after the Liangzhou army broke through Xiapi City, Zhang Liao commanded the Qilin army with 80,000 foot cavalry and raided Donghai County.

The four guards of Yan County, Chen Deng, Mifang, and Fu Shiren, together with more than 10,000 Yanzhou troops, died in the city; Mi Zhu, Chen Qun, Chen Gui and others evacuated the county seat first.

After the Qilin Legion captured Yan County, they went all the way north and captured the first line of Kaiyang and Linyi Yangdu of Lang Evil Country without blood.

The counties under the rule of the Donghai County and Lang Evil Kingdom of the Qingzhou Army were all surrendered to the Liangzhou Army.

More than an hour later, Cao Cao and Liu Bei, who were in the middle of the Cao-Liu coalition army, received the military information from Zhang Fei and them.

Knowing such a military situation is tantamount to a bolt from the blue!

The house leak happened to rain overnight!

The ship is late and has a head wind!

It's at this juncture!

Blessings are incomparable, and disasters are not alone......

The scouts who went to the northeast to inquire about the news from the front line of Qi State in Taishan County came with another bad news...... Zhao Yun's troops did not attack Linjiang City, but stationed troops on the front line of Laiwugai County, Daishan.

It turned out that after Zhao Yun's troops captured Dongpingling, when they wanted to capture Lincheng in one go, they received a secret letter from their lord...... Suspend the attack on Linjiang City, and make every effort to encircle the main force of the Cao Liu coalition army.

If the Cao-Liu coalition army wanted to go to sea, there were two ways, one was to retreat to the northeast, and the other was to retreat to the east.

Now, Zhao Yun's department blocked the northeast retreat of the Cao-Liu coalition army, and Zhang Liao's department cut off the eastward retreat of the army.

Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu and others, who were in Rencheng at the time, already knew it in their hearts...... This time, I'm afraid it's inevitable.

At this time!

The available troops of the Cao-Liu coalition army were only 160,000

The Liangzhou army alone is close to 200,000 soldiers and horses under Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao; Not to mention the 300,000 troops under Li Mu and Wang Ping.

………………

Ren Cheng, the big tent of the Cao Liu coalition army!

The solemn and depressing atmosphere is permeating the entire tent, and it is even haunting the hearts of the Cao Liu coalition army.

All the civil and military officers in the big tent had solemn expressions, all sighed for a long time, all were silent, and all were depressed.

"Now, the retreat from the northeast to the east has been cut off by the Liangzhou army, and our army wants to go to sea...... I'm afraid it's impossible! ”

Cao Cao, whose slender eyes looked around at the civil and military forces in the big tent, and his voice was slightly hoarse, and his expression was full of solemn and deep voices: "What good plan can you have to help our army escape?"

Xun Yu looked up at Cao Cao, and then lowered his head with a sigh.

This time, Xun Yu and Cheng Yu really have no way to deal with it.

To Xun Cheng's incredible, it was extremely unbelievable that ......'Why didn't Zhao Yun's subordinates attack Linjiang City?' How could Zhang Liao's department outflank the Linyi line?

However, if one of the soldiers and horses of Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao did not cut off their retreat, they would have already reached the seaside.

Could it be that Li Mu really had the ability to predict the future and could anticipate their retreat route? ‘

Such a problem, Xun Yu and Cheng Yu naturally can't think clearly, and when they die, it will be difficult for them to get results.

At this time, Liu Bei's mind was not on the question of how to withdraw the army; His thoughts had already wandered to Guan Yu's life and death.

Even if Liu Bei didn't want to believe it, he still had a strong premonition...

'Yun Chang is only afraid that he has been killed, otherwise, Yun Chang would have come to find the main army a long time ago.

If Yun Chang had withdrawn from the Linjiang line, he would naturally have sent a message to Changyi City when the army was defeated. ’

Thinking of this, Liu Bei's eyes were already red, his heart was like a mess, and he had already lost his normal thoughts, so how could he still worry about the life and death of the army.

After a long time......

In the big tent, except for the sighs one after another, there was no other sound, and the civil and military forces of the Cao and Liu coalition armies were even exempted from discussion.

Cao Cao, who was very irritable in his heart, the anger in his chest was also accumulating at great speed, ready to explode at any time.

I haven't seen everyone for a long time, and Cao Cao is about to get angry......

"Qi Qi Alliance Leader, the scouts who went to the front line of Dingtao Chengwu City are waiting outside the hall."

"Quick!"

Cao Cao was stunned, he didn't need to think about it, he was already clear in his heart, and it was definitely not good news.

In a short time, two extremely embarrassed scouts, under the guidance of the guards, came to the door of the big tent.

"It's okay!"

Seeing the appearance of the two scouts, the expressions of everyone in the big tent were a little more solemn; Cao Cao forcibly suppressed the hatred in his chest and shouted in a deep voice.

"Qi Qi Alliance Leader, after Li Musuo's troops passed through Changyi City, they pursued the troops in two ways...... Li Mu is chasing after Ren Cheng; Huang Zhong's department made a detour and was heading for the Gaoping line. ”

"The leader of the Qiyu Alliance, after Wang Ping's department sent troops from the front line of Dingtao Chengyang, he outflanked the front line of Dongping Guoshou Zhang Ningyang."

But listening to the information brought by the two scouts, the vast majority of the civil and military forces in the Cao-Liu coalition army were already as dry as their hearts were dead.

At present, there is an interception army of the Liangzhou Army in the east and northeast; There is an enemy army chasing and outflanking the west and north and south, how can they escape?

"Is there any news about General Xiahou?"

The slender eyes stared at the two scouts, and Cao Cao, who had a murderous face, said in a deep voice.

"General Xiahou has been killed......"

The two scouts immediately fell to their knees, one of whom replied in a trembling voice.

"Li Mu thief, I am inseparable from you!"
