Cao's army retreated
At this point, the fighting general Cao Jun has obviously fallen behind. The Qin army had more enemies and had the upper hand.
Moreover, the Qin army also has Wu Xiaokuan, Fan Chengye, Zhu Shuyu, Yang Zaixing, Zhang Fei is waiting to stare at Cao Hong, Cao Kerang and others, who are also not dispatched.
Cao Cao saw that he couldn't do anything, so he had to withdraw his troops first.
Zhang Hanjun and others returned victorious, naturally full of ambition.
The Xuzhou army has been forced to retreat to the defense since the beginning of the war, and the victory of this battle is unprecedented, and it is also thunderous for a while.
"Lord!" The generals pleaded guilty to Cao Cao with a look of shame, Cao Cao waved his hand to signal that he was not guilty, and then stared at the head of Xuzhou City with hatred.
Cao Cao had been on the battlefield for a long time, and knew that the current fighting generals were not conducive to demoralization, and reluctantly expelling the siege would only increase casualties, so he had to withdraw his troops back first and then make plans.
"The generals of the Qin army are really brave."
Zhang Han and the others returned to Xuzhou City, Tao Qian actually went down to the city to greet them, and everyone was polite at the moment.
Zhang Han noticed that Chen Deng, Mi Zhu, Cao Bao and others were all smiling, only that Liu Bei was a little at a loss.
In the morning, it was safe, but in the afternoon, Cao's army began to attack the city, but now the troops in the city are sufficient, and there is no shortage of various materials to defend the city, but it is easy to retreat.
In the evening, everyone still gathered in Tao Qian's mansion to discuss the military situation.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a small colonel rushed to report: "Lord, generals, Cao's army has withdrawn!" ”
"Cao Bing withdrew?" The people who were deliberating were stunned when they heard this.
Hearing this, Zhang Han asked, "Where did you evacuate?" ”
The little colonel glanced at Tao Qian, and after getting the approval of Lord Assassin Shi, he replied: "Cao's army retreated for more than thirty miles, and he didn't even bring back the corpses left behind in the afternoon siege. ”
Now everyone doesn't understand that it is common sense to collect corpses on the battlefield, because once the corpses are not collected, it is easy to cause a plague.
Unexpectedly, Cao Cao retreated in such a hurry, and he didn't even care about the corpse.
"Tao Thorn Shi, it seems that Cao Cao's army is exhausted, or the rear of Yanzhou is attacked, so he retreated thirty miles, I estimate that he will retreat with his whole army tomorrow at the latest." Zhang Han said affirmatively, and the rest of the people also nodded in agreement.
On Cao Cao's side, Yang Jian led his private soldiers to Yanzhou, and with the help of Chen Liutai's guard Zhang Miao, he successfully attacked the city of Yanzhou.
Cao Cao immediately withdrew his troops when he received the news that Yanzhou had been attacked.
If it weren't for Lu Bu to do things, Cao Cao believed that he would definitely be able to take Xuzhou if he used strategy.
"Yang Jian!"
Cao Cao gritted his teeth and said, all the generals around him saw him so angry, and none of them dared to persuade him.
Xun Yu saw that Cao Cao had a seizure, and stepped forward to advise: "My lord, now that the crisis in Yanzhou is urgent, we should finish cleaning up Lu Bu and then make plans." ”
"That's all there is to it." Cao Cao sighed.
At this moment, a Pegasus came to report, and the drama chronicles who stayed in Yanzhou had an urgent letter delivered.
Cao Cao took the letter and was shocked.
The Yanzhou base camp was originally guarded by Zhou Budo, a great strategist, plus Cao Ren, an expert in defending the city, and Cao Di, a general, should not be able to completely fall.
But Cao Cao was already in a cold sweat after reading it, and his hands were trembling and speechless.
Xun You took the letter and looked at it, his face changed, it turned out that Yang Jian had now occupied Yuzhou, and at the same time had accepted Cao Cao's former life-saving benefactor Chen Gong, and now he had a battle with Cao Di.
Cao Di was defeated by Yang Jian due to the few generals under his command, and more than 6,000 people were killed in the battle.
"Chen Gong ......" Cao Cao muttered the name of his life-saving benefactor, and for a while his heart was really mixed, and he gradually felt that his head was getting more and more painful, and finally he got off the horse in front of him.
……
At this time, the mansion of Tao Qian in Xuzhou City was full of lights, beaming with joy, and everyone was happy from the bottom of their hearts for the retreat of Cao Jun, and even Tao Qian, who had been seriously ill for a long time, also ordered a big feast to celebrate.
"General Zhang, please!" During the banquet, some people toasted Zhang Han from time to time, and they drank cup after cup very refreshingly.
However, after three rounds of drinking, Tao Qian motioned to his subordinates to take out the Xuzhou Thorn Shiyin again, walked to Zhang Han tremblingly in his hand and said: "This time Xuzhou can escape a catastrophe, and General Zhang has made great contributions."
After thinking about it, Cao Cao peeped at Xuzhou day and night, and the only one who could protect Xuzhou was Qin Gong.
Qian is already physically unable to support it, and hopes that the Duke of Qin will replace the old man, and also hopes that General Zhang will give this thing to the Duke of Qin for the sake of the people of Xuzhou. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was quiet, and for a while everyone watched how Zhang Han responded.
Zhang Han remembered what Qin Yan said to him, so he shirked Tao Qian's words for a while.
At this time, Liu Bei suddenly said: "There are still two sons under the knee of Tao Gong, how can he entrust Xuzhou to outsiders?" ”
"The old man's two sons have mediocre qualifications, and it is difficult to take on big responsibilities!" Tao Qian sighed.
Liu Bei had yet to say more, but Tao Qian was already coughing, and he didn't dare to say more at the moment.
But Zhang Han was still shirking, and said: "Tao Gong, it's not that I am unwilling to do this, it's just that I still need to ask my lord's opinion on this matter." ”
At this time, a Confucian student in Tsing Yi said to Tao Qian: "Tao Gong, since General Zhang is unwilling to take over Xuzhou at this time, it is better to ask him to temporarily station Xiaopei in order to make a fool of yourself."
In the land of Xiaopei, there is a lot of money and food, and General Zhang can raise troops here to rest. ”
Tao Qian saw that he was not convinced by Zhang Han for a while, so he could only do so, and finally said: "Then please ask General Zhang to temporarily station Xiaopei." ”
Zhang Han arched his hand and said, "Oh! ”
On the other side, Liu Bei's eyes were red with anger, his fists were clenched, his nails were pierced into the flesh of his palms, and a trace of blood oozed out, but he was unconscious.
