Lu Bu waved his hand and said, "If Fengxiao likes it, then it will be." ”

The Xuzhou army was lively, and the atmosphere in the Cao army was more dignified, today's battle, the Cao army lost the fierce general Xu Chu, although Cao Chun injured Wu Dun, the impact on morale was not very large.

&bsp; Wu Dun had a poor reputation in the Xuzhou army, and Xu Chu was a fierce general in Cao's army, and he was able to fight against Lu Bu for dozens of battles without defeat, and it was difficult to get such a fierce general.

Cao Cao sighed, "It's all the fault of the official, so that Zhongkang fell into the hands of thieves." ”

"My lord, the general will inevitably die before the battle, and I mourn." Cheng Yu persuaded.

"I wonder if Zhongde has a way to redeem Zhongkang from the Xuzhou army?" Cao Cao asked.

Cheng Yu shook his head, "General Xu is strong in martial arts, Lu Bu probably won't let General Xu return to the army." ”

"What a pity for my fierce general." Cao Cao sighed.

"Zhou Mu, it seems that the Xuzhou army is feasting, and it seems to be quite lively." After Cheng Yu got the news from the soldiers, he stopped talking.

Cao Cao said: "Could it be that Lu Bu is celebrating today's victory?" ”

Cheng Yu shook his head, his face was not very good-looking.

"Zhongde, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Cao Cao said.

Cheng Yu said, "My lord, there is news from Xizuo that Lu Bu invited the generals in the army to celebrate Xu Chu's surrender. ”

"It's nonsense, Zhong Kang is loyal to his own officials, how can he betray him." Cao Cao took the case.

Cheng Yu fell into silence, the current situation in Yanzhou is critical, the Yanzhou army has failed one after another against the Xuzhou army, which will inevitably make the generals in the army breed other thoughts, Xu Chu has only been taking refuge in Cao Cao for a few months, even if Cao Cao is heavy on Xu Chu, Xu Chu is also likely to take refuge in Lu Bu at this time.

Who doesn't want to have a brighter future, and a change of camp, although it is unacceptable to the monarch, will still be staged.

After a long silence, Cao Cao got up and said, "Zhong Kang is a fierce general, after taking refuge in Lu Bu, maybe there will be a good result." ”

"It is rumored in the Xuzhou army that General Xu Chu is unwilling to be an enemy of the lord, and the Xuzhou army will not make a move against our army." Cheng Yu said.

This sentence made Cao Cao feel a lot better, if Xu Chu was like Li Dian, after defecting to Lu Bu, and then turned to fight for Lu Bu, it would be the most demoralizing.

"Don't spread this in the army." Cao Cao admonished.

"Humble duty understands." Cheng Yu is also a little worried in his heart, Cao Jun has a detailed work in the Xuzhou Army, how can the Xuzhou Army have no other means, even if it controls this news, I am afraid that it will spread in the army secretly, Xu Chu is a fierce general in the Yanzhou Army, and even such a fierce general chooses to take refuge in Lu Bu, what an impact will it have on the officers and soldiers in the army.

With the hope of survival, how will ordinary soldiers choose, currently following behind Cao Cao, it is difficult to see the dawn of victory.

Ten days in a row, there was no war between the Xuzhou army and the Cao army, in the face of the Xuzhou army's war, the Cao army mainly stuck to the city, and there was no intention of going out of the city to fight with the Xuzhou army, and Xu Chu's defection to Lu Bu was also gradually spread in the army.

After all, the soldiers of the Cao army did not see the scene of Xu Chu's campaign for Lu Bu with their own eyes, and they would be suspicious of such news.

At the same time, the battle of Dingtao entered a white-hot level, Yuan Shu seized Dingtao's heart firmly, and there was a great posture of not breaking Dingtao's vow, since Yuan Shu led the troops to arrive, the attack on Dingtao has not stopped.

There were originally tens of thousands of Cao troops in the field, but after successive battles, they were sharply reduced to 6,000 people, and Yuan Shu's army paid the price of more than 10,000 people outside the city.

This also has a lot to do with the low morale of the soldiers in the city, Cao Cao was in charge of Yanzhou for a short time, coupled with the defeat of the Yanzhou army led by Liu Dai, it is inevitable that there will be shortcomings in dealing with the imposing Yuan Shu army.

At the time of difficulty, Fang showed the true character of the general, and Cao Ren was ordered to resist Yuan Shu's army, showing good command ability, and giving opportunities for Yuan Shu's army to attack again and again.

After a long attack, the soldiers lost more than 10,000 people, and Yuan Shu was anxious.

"What is the result of recruiting Cao Ren?" Yuan Shu set his eyes on Yang Hong.

Yang Hongdao said, "My lord, Cao Ren is Cao Cao's younger brother, and he is loyal to Cao Cao, and the officials he sent to recruit are killed for Cao Ren." ”

"Hmph, little Cao Ren, An dares to be so rampant, after breaking through Dingtao, Ben Hou will break his body into ten thousand pieces." Yuan Shu gritted his teeth and said, if it weren't for Cao Ren blocking Dingtao, Yuan Shu's army would be able to drive straight into attack Yanzhou Prefecture and Changyi, and then the entire Yanzhou would fall under his control.

"Lord, the army in the city has been sharply reduced, at most a month, our army will be able to break through Dingtao, at this time Cao Cao led the army to contain Lu Bu in Gaoping, and he is unable to take care of the Dingtao war." Yang Hongdao.

Yuan Shu nodded and said, "This is our army's opportunity to break through Dingtao, and the officers and men in the army must not slack off." ”

"Whoa." The generals in the tent said in unison.

"Report, the officers and soldiers in the army caught one person and claimed to be a messenger sent by Cao Cao."

Yuan Shu snorted coldly, "Behead Cao Cao's envoy to show the public, and dare to kill Benhou's envoy, how can Benhou be soft." ”

Yang Hong persuaded, "My lord, the situation in Yanzhou is critical, maybe Cao Cao sent someone here to take refuge in the lord's affairs, you might as well meet Cao Cao's envoy." ”

"Let this man in." Yuan Shu pondered for a moment and said.

Cao Cao and he are also old acquaintances, and at a critical moment, it is still very possible for Cao Cao to take refuge in him, after all, Lu Bu's reputation is far from him.

A moment later, Yanzhou Bei drove Wang Yu as a sergeant to the Chinese army's tent.

The eyes of the generals in the tent looking at Wang Yu were full of hatred, and it was precisely because of the resistance of the Yanzhou army that the officers and men in the army suffered a lot of losses.

The hatred of the generals did not have the slightest impact on Wang Yu, and he stepped forward and arched his hand, "Don't drive Wang Yu in Yanzhou, I've seen General Yuan." ”

Yuan Shu said with a smile: "I don't want Cao Mengde to send Wang Beijia here, can it be for Cao Mengde's refuge." ”

Wang Yu arched his hand and said, "I came down to eradicate the traitors for the court." ”

Yuan Shu showed curiosity: "Yanzhou is currently in danger, and Cao Mengde still has the heart to eradicate the traitor?" Also, at present, there are many yellow turbans raging in Yanzhou, and Cao Mengde is unable to deal with this matter. ”

"The traitor mentioned below is not the Yanzhou Yellow Turban, Caozhou Mu has great talents, and after controlling the Yanzhou army, he defeated the Yellow Turban with a weak force, and the Yellow Turban is not enough to worry about." Wang Yu said.

Yuan Shu was puzzled: "Then what is the traitor that Cao Mengde refers to?" ”

Wang Yu said, "The traitor that the state pastor said is Lu Buye, who occupies Xuzhou, Lu Bu was originally a general of Ding Yuan, but he is a traitor to seek glory, killing Ding Yuan to take refuge in Dong Zhuo's old thief, helping to abuse, after betraying the imperial court, attacking Xuzhou, wanting to stand on his own, this is the traitor of the Han Dynasty, if General Yuan can send troops to eradicate the traitor, he will definitely be famous in the world." ”
