Chapter 548: Deserted and Fleeing

There was not much time, Cao Cao said a word, and everyone dispersed, but Xun You did not leave at this time, Cao Cao knew at a glance that he Xun You had something to do.

So, Cao Cao asked, "Gongda, do you have anything to do?" ”

Xun You looked left and right, but did not speak, what did Cao Cao do. I only heard Cao Cao say: "You are all guarding outside the tent, and no one is allowed to approach within three zhang of the big tent." ”

At this time, in Cao Cao's Chinese army tent, there were only Cao Cao and Xun You, only to hear Xun You say: "Lord, Liu Bei, this person, is the hero of the world, he and Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, are all the way, this kind of person, in order to achieve great things, anything can be done, and anyone can be sacrificed, so, lord, you must plan it earlier!" ”

"Hey, Gongda, I don't know, but Liu Bei came to join me, if I kill him like this, I will have a reputation for jealousy, who can come to me in the future?" Cao Cao also sighed and said.

Cao Cao is definitely not a stupid person, he can be a prince, and how many people are stupid, even that Yuan Shu has his advantages, but Yuan Shu is a little petty, and it is through the reputation of his ancestors that Yuan Shu can have today's results.

At this time, Xun You didn't feel surprised, but listened to Xun You continue: "That lord, after you defeat Yuan Shu, you must not let Liu Bei go, just take him back to Xu Du and raise him for a lifetime." ”

"Well, Gongda's words are reasonable, I made a note of it." Cao Cao continued.

In this way, the two ministers and ministers talked more happily, they talked about Liu Bei and Shouchun for a long time, and in the end, the two of them dispersed happily.

Let's make a long story short, from this day on, Cao Cao followed Liu Bei's wishes, and his 40,000 troops were stationed on the north bank of Huaishui, waiting for news from Liu Bei.

Although Cao Cao's army of 40,000 people eat and feed horses all day long, the cost is very huge, but Cao Cao can still calm down, which is also Cao Cao's ability to do great things.

Sure enough, four days later, Liu Bei brought news to Cao Cao, saying that the time was ripe for Cao Cao to lead the army and attack Shouchun from tomorrow, and Cao Cao was worried about Huaishui's obstruction, but Liu Bei said that he got the news that Ji Ling's army had already abandoned Huaishui.

In this way, Cao Cao's army of 40,000 crossed the Huaishui and began to attack Shouchun, but Shouchun City was not something that Cao Cao could capture if he wanted to, so Cao Cao attacked for four days, and in the four days, Cao Cao and Ji Ling suffered huge losses.

Although Cao Cao is now strong and strong, he doesn't want his elite soldiers to die in this tasteless siege battle.

However, just when Cao Cao wanted to find Liu Bei to ask for an understanding, Liu Bei said that now the time has come, he asked Cao Cao to attack the city overnight from today, and prepare a group of soldiers and horses, and ambush outside the south gate of Shouchun City, although this is a bit difficult, but it is nothing for Cao Cao, Cao Cao sent the general Li Dian, led 5,000 elite soldiers, and secretly came to the south gate of Shouchun at night, and ambushed in a forest.

And in this matter, Cao Cao only knew that someone would give them soldiers and horses at night and open the city gate, as for how Liu Bei did it, he Cao Cao also did not know.

Not to mention Li Dian, a military general, Li Dian finally brought 5,000 elite soldiers to the south gate of Shouchun, of course, he hid the 5,000 army, and only sent some scouts to closely monitor the vicinity of the south gate.

Around the end of the night, just when Li Diandu was about to lose his patience, a scout suddenly reported to him, only to see the scout say: "General, we have received a signal from the south gate, general, what should we do?" ”

When Li Dian heard this, he sent a signal, and the reason for this signal was that Li Dian and their 5,000 soldiers and horses naturally had to be hidden, so the people who answered inside the south gate could not open the door in advance to greet them, so they took the signal as an order.

Li Dian got the signal, so he led the soldiers and horses over, and when Li Dian and the others arrived, the city gate over there opened, which was considered a successful sneak attack on Shouchun.

It didn't take long for Li Dian to take 5,000 elite soldiers to the south gate of Shouchun.

"General Li, look, Shouchun's south gate has opened." At this time, I heard one of Li Dian's lieutenants shouting.

Li Dian looked up, didn't he? Without hesitation, he cried out, "Brothers, kill me into the city." ”

Tart tart tart!

Li Dian gave an order, and the 5,000 army went directly into the city, and when Li Dian went in, it turned out to be Yuan Shu's general Han Yin, who opened the city gate for Li Dian.

The two of them simply said two words, Li Dian led the troops and went to the city to kill, and the strategy Liu Bei said was Han Yin, as for how Liu Bei could persuade Han Yin to surrender?

In fact, this is not Han Yin's ability, Liu Bei knows that Han Yin is a literati, Han Yin and Lu Bu don't kill much, he forgets his righteousness, especially Han Yin has been to Xuzhou twice since he beat him, for the marriage of his Yuan Shu and Lu Bu's children, but let Han Yin run a few times without results.

And Yuan Shu also said that he is a dry bone in the grave, so Yuan Shu is enough to see that he has alienated Han Yin, Han Yin does not have a place to stay here, but he has never had the opportunity to seek refuge in others, ordinary princes, Han Yin himself still can't look down on it?

And Liu Bei is a person, other abilities are not good, he can figure out people's thoughts, but he is a must, this is Liu Bei's strategy.

As soon as Li Dian's soldiers and horses entered the city, Ji Ling, who was resisting Cao Bing at the north gate, heard about it, and saw Ji Ling shouting angrily: "What a horseman, I must kill you." ”

"General, let's withdraw quickly, now that Shouchun is over, Jiujiang County is over, and we won't be able to get out of the city if we miss it for a while." The little colonel beside Ji Ling hurriedly said.

"Bastard, do you think I'm a scumbag on the run?" Ji Ling said indignantly.

"General, you are young when you die, but what should the lord do in Lujiang? If the general can endure the anger for a while, and when the time comes, protect the lord in Lujiang, then Cao Cao will not dare to face the south. This defeat was just Han Yin's despicable villain, and when the general went back, he suggested that the lord kill his entire family. The colonel hurriedly said again.

"Okay, if you hadn't persuaded me, I would have killed that despicable villain Han Yin." Ji Ling said again, and after a while, he heard Ji Ling then shouting, "The whole army retreats." ”

"General, from which gate shall we withdraw?" The little colonel who spoke just now said again.

"Nonsense, the lord is in Lujiang, of course we have to withdraw from the south gate." Ji Ling said without cutting down.

"General, you are confused, the South Gate has been lost, Cao Cao's general Li Dian has already been killed, and in addition, Han Yin's despicable villain is guarding the South Gate, we didn't go to the net." The little colonel said with hatred, but there were some meanings about his mental activities, which he didn't dare to show.

"Then what do you say we should do, and from which door do we withdraw?" Ji Ling said with a confused mind.

"General, let's go through the east gate." The Colonel continued.

"Okay, just listen to you, pass on my orders, and the whole army will retreat from the east gate." Ji Ling ordered again.

"No! The general gave the order, and all of them retreated from the east gate. The colonel immediately shouted.

However, it is impossible for all the people to retreat with Ji Ling, people's hearts are unpredictable, the trees are scattered, Ji Ling and Yuan Shu are usually not very good to their subordinates, so there are many people who took this opportunity to break away from Ji Ling, and there are still some people who have not received the order to retreat.
