Jianchang

"Hold on! We are undefeated, Cao Jun is undefeated! Xiahoudun encouraged everyone. Zhou Yu set fire to Sanjiangkou, burned the Cao army in Chibi, Cao Jun's water army was killed, and the news of the destruction of Fanshan grain land reached the army, and the soldiers in the army were depressed and pessimistic.

Now the Ganning army comes to attack Jianchang City every day, and the Cao army, under the command of the Xiahou brothers, although it is temporarily held, the result is already obvious.

"Shoot the arrows!" Sun Jun fired 10,000 arrows from below and attacked the city, "Be careful! Hide! ”

Ganning's men rode their horses under the city and watched, "We come to harass them every day, and if we don't attack them with all our might, they will be extremely uncomfortable." I don't know how many more days they can hold out. Gan Ning said.

Lu Xun said: "Cao's army Wulin has lost and has begun to divide his troops and retreat, and Xiahoudun and them will soon leave." ”

In the city, Xiahou Yuan looked for Xiahou Yuan, "Big brother! The east gate is about to be broken, and the west gate can't be defended. Let's withdraw, there's no point in guarding here, the lord and they have already retreated. ”

Xiahou defended the city not only for the last hope, but also to stop the forces of the Sun army, and now that Cao Cao had evacuated, it was time for him to leave.

"Withdraw!"

In Jianchang City, Cao's army withdrew from the city and fled from this place.

"We succeeded! I've got it back! The soldier Sun Jun shouted excitedly.

Gan Ning also did not order the pursuit, after all, the siege had just begun, and it was not beneficial to pursue it now.

In November of the thirteenth year of Jian'an, Cao Jun withdrew from Chibi.

Wulin, Sun military camp

Zhou Yu and the others looked at the map and analyzed the route of Cao's army at the table.

"Xiahoudun's side, the troops have already retreated, they went back in the direction of Jingzhou, and they didn't choose to come here to find Cao Cao to meet." Zhu Zhi said.

Ding Fengyan: "Presumably I got Cao Cao's order to go back to Jingzhou to defend, and I should go back to Jiangling." After all, it is an important stronghold, and if it is lost, it will be serious. ”

"They didn't come to join Cao Cao, and we can't know where Cao Jun is going for a while." Xu Shengyan.

"This should be it!" Zhou Yu pointed to a place on the map, "You should go to Huarong." ”

"Huarong? It is a good way to retreat, but the terrain there is not good, the terrain is low-lying, the road is narrow, and the march must not be fast. Zhu Zhi analyzed.

"Let's go!" Zhou Yu walked outside the camp, "It's not just us who counted him going to Huarong. ”

Huarong

Shi Yue and Kong Ming went back to reorganize the army after leaving Sun's camp and came here.

After Kong Ming came here, he directly gave Zhou Cang a map and asked him to prepare.

Shi Yue thought it was an ambush or something at first, but later found out that it wasn't at all, what the hell was this person doing?

Shi Yue asked curiously, "Kong Ming, what are you doing?" ”

Kong Ming's eyes were sharp, and he said with a smile: "A plan that was prepared a long time ago, get it out today." ”

Long ago? What the heck? Shi Yue was confused and didn't understand at all. However, this time he came to Huarong to ambush Cao Jun, but there was no Guan Yu! Instead, he brought Zhao Yun here. Will I let Cao Cao go? Of course it's impossible, I don't have a good relationship with him. The relationship between subordinates and leaders is the same.

However, there is a problem, there are a lot of Cao soldiers, but it's not that the fire in the book is gone, can we deal with it? And Sun Jun may also chase after us, what if they serve us in a pot at that time?

Shi Yue said to Kong Ming worriedly: "It is said that many army troops have rushed to support Cao Cao, and there must be a lot of soldiers, and Sun Jun will also chase after him from behind, I am afraid that it will be difficult for us to ambush it." ”

Kong Ming smiled slightly, "I know the worries of the military advisor, but don't worry, give me full authority in this battle, and I will defeat their two armies." As for Cao Cao's head, it will be given to you. ”

Above the red cliffs

Cao Ang and Cao Pi led the army to another road to Jiangling, and the two and Cao Cao's army dispersed, and returned under the protection of Zhang Liao, Yu Ban, Zhang He, and others.

Cao Ang asked Cao Pi, "Father asked us to split the army with him, and I shouldn't have left at that time, right, Zihuan." ”

Cao Pi: "Big brother, don't say that, my father let us do this, and he has his own intentions." We have too many soldiers, if we act together, it is too easy to expose our whereabouts, and the road in Huarong is dangerous and narrow, if more than 100,000 troops go in, it will definitely be impassable. ”

"I know that, I don't mean that. I mean, did my father have ulterior motives for what he did this time? Cao Ang said in a serious tone.

Cao Pi didn't say anything, there was something else in his eyes.

Xuchang

"The latest news! The army of the lord retreated to Huarong, the two sons led an army to Jiangling, and General Cao Ren led an army to make a detour to lure the Sun army. ”

"Very well, let's go down." Xun Yu said.

"The lord is not dead, so it is naturally excellent. But we're going to have a mess on our side. Xun Yu said on the side.

Xun Yu frowned, "There is a movement over there in Hebei, and there has always been the loyalty of the Yuan family over there, they waited for the opportunity, but they didn't expect to come so soon." "There are a lot of internal responses in the city, and many people have come to the emperor recently, and I have written them all down. I've been keeping an eye on the movements of the ministers in the city, and I hope we'll get through. ”

Xun Youyan: "Once the lord dies, the consequences are unimaginable. One of the greatest crises is the infighting of our own people. Gongzi Cao Zhi's side has been frequently visiting the homes of the ministers recently, and recently used us to deal with the affairs of spies, and dealt with a lot of so-called internal responses. ”

Xun Yu asked: "Who gave him ideas." ”

"Yang Xiu."

Above the red cliffs

Cao Ang and the two led the army to pass by a bush, and at this time, an army rushed out from inside, it was Zhang Fei, "Wait for Hugh to leave!" I am Yanren Zhang Yide! ”

"There is an ambush, Childe will go first! I stopped them. Zhang Liao said. said that this one rushed towards Zhang Fei.

"You are also surnamed Zhang, coincidentally, so am I." Zhang Liao shouted, waved his spear away, Zhang Fei raised his spear to meet the battle, and the two armies fought.

Cao Ang and Cao Pi led the troops forward, and when they didn't run long, another army rushed out, and it was Guan Yu who led the army. "Where are you going?"

Yu Ban said: "Childe, you go!" I'll stop them first. As he spoke, he led an army to meet Yun Chang.

Liu Bei on the mountain saw it and ensured that Cao Cao was not on this road, so he was relieved. The path taken by Cao Jun was intercepted by Kong Ming, and Kong Ming did not dare to ensure that Cao Cao would definitely take Huarong, in case it was the most dangerous road, it was difficult to say.

Liu Bei said to the soldiers on the side: "Go and give orders, collect the troops, and return to Jiangxia." ”

Guan and Zhang came to attack to confirm whether there was Cao Cao or not, and they would not really fight, after all, the troops were limited, and it was not worth the serious losses to kill them, and there would be Sun Quan as an enemy in the rear.

Guan and Zhang withdrew their troops and left, Zhang Liao and Yu Banzhi were a little unexpected, but they couldn't control much, and immediately went back to Cao Ang and the others.

Sun Jun pursued Cao Jun's trajectory all the way, and after a few days, Sun Jun finally caught up with Cao Jun who was fleeing in Huarong, "They are in front!" ”

Cao Jun reported to him, "Sun Jun is chasing after him in the rear!"

Cao Cao gave the order to speed up the advance, and then sent people to the valley to set up an ambush to hinder the advance of Sun's army, and he led the army to continue to escape.

"There are two paths ahead!"

An avenue, smooth, but fifty miles away. A small road, narrow and dangerous, low-lying terrain.

"From the small road, go to Huarong Road."
