"They? Are they all dead? ”

When the poisonous smoke of the last gas bomb was blown away by the spring breeze for a long time, and Dong Erjun's frantic shouting and killing sound was not heard, and there was no explosion, Cao Cao stood up with his bloody lips covered, and asked in fear and vaguely: "...... they are all dead?" Seeing Guo Jia and the others nodding silently, Cao Cao covered his bleeding lips and stood for a long time, before looking up to the sky and sighing: "Man! They are real men! What kind of magic did Dong Thief use to make a group of shopkeepers, housekeepers, and grooms become real men? ”

"Perhaps, this is the reason why Dong thieves are invincible." Guo Jia muttered with tears in his eyes, at Guo Jia's feet, there was the corpse of Xi Zhicai, who was blown up to a bloody blur, and Liu Hao was still being rescued by the military doctor next to him, and not far away, there were also the corpses of Cao Cao's soldiers, which were the masterpieces of the two Aifu family members.

Cao Cao closed his eyes and wept and said, "Collect as many corpses as possible of Dong Chongjun's soldiers and send them to Yecheng to hand over to Jia Xu, although they are enemies, they deserve our respect." Guo Jia agreed, and was about to do it, but Zhuge Liang's voice came from afar, "King, Mr. Fengxiao, slow down!" ”

Cao Cao and Guo Jia looked back and saw that Zhuge Liang was being carried by Zhuge Xuan's own soldiers again, Zhuge Liang jumped off the sedan chair and saluted Cao Cao and the others respectfully: "King, I just heard that you are going to return the corpses of those dead soldiers to the enemy, is it true?" Seeing Cao Cao's admission, Zhuge Liang beat his chest and said, "King, why are you smart and confused for a while?" Is it still time to talk about righteousness? ”

"What do you mean by that?" Cao Cao forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and asked lightly, Cao Cao said in his heart, "Hairy little ghost, dare to teach the old man a lesson?" If it weren't for the fact that you strongly proposed that Liu Bei lead his troops to Jizhou to reinforce Lone, Lone would have slaughtered you with one sword! ”

"King, who is the strongest today?" Zhuge Liang asked Cao Cao first.

"Dong thief!" Cao Cao didn't think about it, and replied casually: "If the population and financial resources of the Han Dynasty are divided into ten parts, then although the territory of Dong Thief is large, it is vast and sparsely populated, only four of ten, Yuan Shao accounts for two, Liu Thorn accounts for two into five, and Gu only accounts for one into five." If the two states fall into the hands of Dong thieves again, then Dong thieves will account for six-tenths of the world. ”

"That's right." Zhuge Liang said: "If Jizhou and Youzhou fall into the hands of Dong Thief again, then the strength of Dong Thief's family will be far better than the combined efforts of your two armies, coupled with Dong Thief's eloquence and Jia Xu, Pang Tong and others' old calculations, even if you and our two armies do their best, it will be difficult to compete with Dong Thief!" ”

Cao Cao and Guo Jia nodded silently, this is an irrefutable fact, Zhuge Liang continued: "The Yecheng in front of me is the strategic fulcrum for Dong thieves to occupy the two states of Ji and You, the grain, grass and ordnance in the city are piled up, enough for the soldiers and civilians of the two states to use the grain and grass for several months, and the most elite troops of Dong thief, Yecheng is here, Dong thief is both powerful and powerful, and it is easy to capture the two states; Yecheng was lost, Dong thief was unable to prepare for the transportation of a large amount of grain into Jizhou for a moment, the best candied date and stick tactics could not be played, the elite troops were destroyed, Dong thief was injured and no longer able to enter Jizhou, not to mention, our two alliances can also take Dong thief's military needs calmly captured the two states, he is so long, Dong thief is not as good as your two families to join forces, so although Yecheng is small, it is related to the luck of the world. ”

Zhuge Liang asserted that the gains and losses of Yecheng were related to the luck of the world, Cao Cao and Guo Jia couldn't help but be shocked, but after thinking about it carefully, Cao Cao and Guo Jia had to admit that what Zhuge Liang said was indeed reasonable, the two states of Ji and You were the last weight on the balance of the Han Dynasty, and the Cao-Liu alliance would surpass Dong Zhuojun in terms of total strength if they obtained the two states. Cao Cao and Guo Jia glanced at each other, and they both secretly admired the amazing strategic vision of the hairy boy in front of them.

"Although the main force of the Dong thieves successfully escaped into the city, they fought several battles in two days and two nights, and they were hungry and tired, and now they must be exhausted." Zhuge Liang said gloomily: "Liang dares to assert that the exhausted main forces of Dong Thief must be sleeping now, even if they are reluctant to go into battle, their combat effectiveness is not as good as a recruit who has never been on the battlefield, and now the Dong Thief army that can defend the city is still those Zhao Yun's defeated army, the opportunity cannot be lost, your two armies should immediately attack the city with all their might, don't give Dong Thief a chance to breathe, and Dong Chongjun sacrificed his life to rescue the main force of Dong Thief back to the city, Dong Thief's army will definitely be grateful to them, if we transport their bodies to the city...... I am also afraid that the Dong thief army will not jump like thunder, and give up the city defense and go out of the city to fight a decisive battle with us. ”

"No way!" Cao Cao shouted: "They are real warriors, using their corpses to provoke the enemy to fight, even if they win, they will be laughed at by the whole world, and they will be infamy!" ”

"Those who achieve great things are not informal." Guo Jia said slowly: "Dong thief's methods have always been shameless, kidnapping, poisoning, and hostages are all he can do, which can be regarded as his retribution, Guo Jia agrees with the idea of the Zhuge brothers." ”

"Dong Thief's current strength is still above us." Zhuge Liang added: "If you don't capture Yecheng immediately now, and force Dong Thief to move his troops north, then Dong Thief will send troops together in Tongguan, Xiangyang and Jianye to threaten Qingxu and Xuzhou, and your and our plan to capture Jiyou and Youzhou will be in vain." Even if Dong Thief Sanlu only besieged Wei to save Zhao, and would not use all his strength, when the elite troops of Dong Thief in the city recovered their strength, healed their wounds, and then went out of the city to fight a decisive battle with your two armies, it is still a question whether our infantry lacking cavalry can resist Dong Thief's iron cavalry. ”

Cao Cao didn't speak, but slowly turned his back and asked the military doctor to bandage the wound on his lips, Guo Jia took the opportunity to pull Zhuge Liang aside, and said to Zhuge Liang: "Brother Zhuge Xian, the benevolence of the king's wife, refuse to agree, Brother Zhuge Xian, please take care of yourself, Guo Jia commanded the army to fully cooperate with Brother Xian, so let's do it, our army will rush to the city with 50,000 troops first, what does Brother Zhuge want?" Zhuge Liang was overjoyed and hurriedly went to arrange various matters. Looking at Zhuge Liang's back in a hurry, Guo Jia sneered in his heart, "It's a little fox, but unfortunately, it's a little tender." ”

In a short time, with Cao Cao's permission, Guo Jia immediately organized an army of 50,000 mainly with Yuan Shao's troops, and Xu Yi broke the city to let these soldiers protect his family in Yecheng, and rewarded them with money and food, led by Cao Ren, Xiahou Dun, Zhang He and Xu Zhen, respectively, to attack Yecheng, and Zhuge Liang also sent a rear team to respond, and ordered Liu Beijun soldiers to collect Dong Chongjun's corpse and prepare to implement the plan.

Yecheng, as Zhuge Liang expected, Dong Zhuojun's crisis has not passed, the exhausted Dong Zhuojun main force just entered the city and fell asleep on the ground in the city, after two days and two nights of continuous fighting, Dong Zhuojun's soldiers were in great need of replenishing their physical strength, and even Lu Bu and Ma Zhong and other generals had already snored and fell asleep, and now in Yecheng, there are still only Zhao Yun's more than 10,000 defeated troops in the important task of defending the city.

Although Jia Xu was also very tired, he still endured his sleepiness and went to the city to inspect the defense, and when he saw the Cao Liu coalition army organizing siege troops under the city on the city wall, Jia Xu ordered: "Zilong, you command the city defense, I will do something first, remember, you can only hold on, and you must not go to war." Zhao Yun agreed, and Jia Xu picked up Dong Chong, who was still crying on the ground, and comforted: "Second general, people can't be resurrected after death, and after their death, you have to take care of your body and go back to Chang'an to arrange." Dong Chongda cried and nodded, and Jia Xu said again: "Second general, the enemy is about to attack the city, our danger has not passed, you take me to see a person, only he can hold Yecheng, so that our main army has time to rest." ”

"Who?" Dong Chong asked with tears in his eyes.

"Tian Feng." Jia Xu replied lightly:

After assisting Dong Chong to repel the first wave of Cao Cao's army, Tian Feng returned to the prison by himself, no matter how Dong Chong and later Zhao Yun grinded hard, and even begged, Tian Feng just refused to go out of the mountain to help Dong Zhuo's army resist the Cao-Liu coalition army, Dong Chong had no choice but to go with Tian Feng, and still let Tian Feng come and go freely with his family in the prison, just waiting for him to be sent to Chang'an in the future to let Kang Peng personally persuade him to surrender.

From the time when the Cao Liu coalition army began to attack Yecheng, Tian Feng moved back to his cramped and dilapidated home to live, but there were a few Dong Zhuojun soldiers watching, Dong Chong took Jia Xu to find Tian Feng, Tian Feng was kneeling in the hall of his home to burn incense on a spiritual card, and saw Jia Xu and Dong Chong enter the courtyard, Tian Feng seemed to be unconscious, but solemnly knelt down and bowed to the spirit card three times and nine times, and then slowly got up and walked to the dilapidated courtyard.

"It's useless for you to come to me." Tian Feng knew the intentions of Jia Xu and Dong Chong, and said straight to the point: "Cao Cao and Liu Bei used a divisive tactic to let the fine work lurking in Yecheng spread rumors and threaten the people of Yecheng, so that they would not dare to assist you, even if I came forward to gather the people for you, not many people would have the courage to stand up." ”

"But once Yecheng is broken, the armies of Cao Cao and Liu Bei's two dog thieves will not let go of the people of Yecheng." Dong Chong choked up and said: "Mr. Wen Hao, please, only if you come forward to gather the people for our army to help defend the city, our main force will have enough time to rest and protect the safety of the people of Yecheng." ”

"The people of Yecheng helped you last time." Tian Feng said coldly: "It's because of the morality and politics of your army, as well as Cao Cao, who is afraid of revenge for his father, slaughtered the city, but now there is Liu Bei outside the city, and Liu Bei's name of benevolence and righteousness spreads all over the world. There are also the lord's soldiers, they are the children of the people of Yecheng, will the people of Yecheng risk their lives to kill their own children? ”

Dong Chong stopped talking, at this time, the shouting and killing outside the city was loud, and the Cao-Liu coalition army had already begun to attack the city, even in the courtyard of Tian Feng's family living in the inner city, the deafening shouting and killing sound could be heard. Jia Xu was in a hurry and said to Tian Feng: "Mr. Wen Hao, Jia Xu is not here to ask Mr. Wen Hao to organize the people in the city to go to the city to face the battle, the people who lack military training will not only suffer heavy casualties when they encounter the skilled Cao-Liu coalition army, but also will not play much role. ”

"And what do you want me to do for you?" Tian Feng's face was expressionless, "Do you want me to come forward to organize the lord's troops to go into battle?" Aren't you afraid that they will mutiny? ”

"It's because I'm afraid that they will mutiny, so Jia Xu can ask Mr. Wen Hao." Jia Xu said sincerely: "Mr. Wen Hao is an honest official, loves the people like a son, and is very loved by the army and the people, Yuan Shao is jealous of Mr., so he is wary of Mr. again and again, so that Mr. will be put in prison." Therefore, only Mr. Wen Hao and you come forward to organize the surrender of troops to defend Yecheng, the surrender of troops will be able to use their lives and block the Cao Liu coalition army at the head of the city. ”

"Why should I help you?" Tian Feng hated and hated: "Don't forget, Yecheng has fallen to this point, it is the result of your greed for Ji You's two states and provoking the lord to make enemies with Cao Cao, I hate you It's too late, why do you want to help you?" In fact, I now hope that Liu Beijun will break through Yecheng as soon as possible and break all of you culprits into pieces to relieve the hatred in my heart! ”

Tian Feng's attitude was so resolute, Jia Xu had nothing to do, and the shouting and killing outside the city became more and more intense, and he could even hear the sound of siege vehicles hitting the city gate, Jia Xu had no choice but to let the soldiers give an order: "Go and inform General Zilong, let him pour fire oil on the enemy's siege vehicles, and organize heavy soldiers to block the city gate with brick and wood vehicles and seal the city gate!" "After several siege battles, the city walls and gates have been in danger, although pouring fire oil to burn the enemy can effectively burn the enemy and burn the enemy's siege weapons, but it is actually more harmful to the city defense of Yecheng, and it is already a signal of imminent fall.

"What's the use of sealing the gates?" Tian Feng sneered: "The enemy has a cloud ladder and a thousand troops, as long as you kill all the wounded and defeated soldiers in the city, you will still be ruined and killed." ”

With a plop, Dong Chong knelt down in front of Tian Feng, kowtowed and cried: "Mr. Wen Hao, please, we really can't help it, there are only 10,000 wounded soldiers in the city, and the brothers who came into the city just now are all so tired that they fall asleep, and they don't have the physical strength to go to the city to defend, only you can organize the soldiers of Hebei to help us block the enemy, I, Dong Er, kowtow to you, only you can help us." ”

Even in the face of Dong Chong's crying and kowtowing, and even kowtowing and bleeding, Tian Feng was like a piece of 10,000-year-old ice, still unmoved, just hugged his chest and sneered, refusing to agree to anything. Jia Xu shook his head and sighed, knowing that the only glimmer of hope had been dashed, and was about to return to the city to try to defend the city again, when the shouting and killing sound in the city suddenly weakened, and after a while, it was silent. Dong Chong and Tian Feng were both very surprised, Jia Xu looked at the direction of the city wall, but a sense of foreboding rose in his heart.

"Brute!" "Dog thief!" "I'm fighting with you!" The roar of Dong Zhuojun's soldiers suddenly came from the city, which could be transmitted from the city wall to the direction of Tian Feng's house, which showed the anger of Dong Zhuojun's soldiers, Jia Xu was shocked, and knew that something was wrong, as Jia Xu expected, in a moment, a fast horse rushed to Tian Feng's side, and the soldiers immediately cried from afar: "Military division, the big thing is not good, the brothers are all going out of the city and fighting with the enemy, and General Zilong can't suppress it." ”

"What the hell is going on outside the city?" Jia Xu asked in surprise, and the herald climbed off his horse and cried at Jia Xu: "The enemy is outside the city, and ...... outside the city." Jia Xu was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, grabbed the herald by the collar and shouted, "What has the enemy done? To make our soldiers so angry? ”

"They collected all the bodies of the brothers of the Second Master Army and brought them to the city." The herald cried out through gritted teeth, "Pooping and peeing on their bodies, cutting off their heads, kicking them, pulling a pack of wild dogs to eat their bodies, and ......"

"Say no more!" Jia Xu threw the herald to the ground, turned his back and shook his shoulders, and Dong Chong roared heartbreakingly, "Brute! I'm fighting with you! Stumbling up, the tearful Jia Xu hurriedly hugged Dong Chong, "Second general, this is the enemy forcing us out of the city, you can't go, you can't be fooled!" ”

"No!" Dong Chong cried out in blood: "They are my brothers, they died for me, I can't let those beasts spoil their corpses!" Dong Chong looked like a mad tiger and dragged Jia Xu out of the way. On the side, Tian Feng, who had been sneering, changed his expression and became calm as water, Tian Feng picked up Dong Zhuojun's herald who was crying on the ground, "Who did it?" Cao Cao's army? Or Liu Beijun? ”

"It's Liu Beijun!" The herald replied with tears: "It's all Liu Beijun, and Cao Caojun is watching from the side." ”

Tian Feng smiled again, and said to himself: "Liu Bei, I really didn't misunderstand you. Tian Feng let go of the herald again, and when he turned his head to look at Jia Xu and Dong Chong who were struggling, his face had become extremely hideous, Tian Feng clenched his fists and yelled at Jia Xu: "Jia Junshi, General Dong, take me to the place where Yuan Shao's troops are held!" ”

The sun was slanting westward, and the golden sunlight slowly shone into the narrow living room of Tian Feng's house, shining on the spirit card that Tian Feng had just knelt down to burn incense, and there were eight words on the spirit card - the spirit of the three thousand righteous men in Chang'an!
