"Lord, it's done, Xiahoudun was ambushed by General Tai Shici in Jiuli Mountain, and now, Cao Bing has suffered heavy casualties, and he has made a mess!"

Lei Hu rushed all the way to a mountain forest and found Lu Zhuo and said.

Lu Zhuo spit out the grass stalk in his mouth on the ground, his eyes lit up, and he clenched his fists hard, "Very good, in this way, immediately send someone to send a letter to Cao Cao, saying that Xiahoudun is trapped, he will definitely send someone to rescue, hmph, you know, one Xiahoudun is worth ten cities in Cao Cao's eyes!" ”

Lei Hu agreed and hurriedly retreated.

Lu Zhuo did not rush to Jiuli Mountain, after Lei Hu left, he continued to fall asleep, and the four grassroots people on the side, all carved and stone, motionless, each holding a position, any wind and grass, will arouse their vigilance.

Seeing that there was only one last day left before Cao Cao's breaking of the city, however, the bad news that Xiahoudun was trapped was sent to Cao Cao's ears, as for whether the messenger was true or false, Cao Cao did not pay attention to it, this news completely disrupted Cao Cao's plan.

Xiahoudun has an army of 50,000 around him, he is Cao Cao's own brother, since Xiahouyuan's death, Xiahoudun in Cao Cao's mind, more important, now he is trapped in Jiuli Mountain, the situation is extremely urgent, Cao Cao had to personally lead the army back to help.

Although Cao Cao attaches great importance to Shouchun, he is reluctant to accept Xiahoudun.

When Cao Cao rushed to Jiuli Mountain, he was stunned by the scene in front of him, although there were many Cao soldiers killed and wounded here, but Xiahoudun was not in a desperate situation, Tai Shici ambushed for a while, and then withdrew with his troops, and Xiahoudun also continued to advance according to Cao Cao's orders, and had returned to Yanzhou at this moment.

Therefore, in the entire Jiuli Mountain, except for the corpses of thousands of Cao soldiers in the canyon, there was no one.

Cao Cao was completely dumbfounded.

"Not good!"

Suddenly, Guo Jia, who was behind Cao Cao, suddenly exclaimed, "Lord, we have fallen for Lu Zhuo's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain." ”

"This..."

Cao Cao's reaction was not slow at all, but there was still a glimmer of hope in his heart, and he immediately hurriedly ordered, "Go, return to Shouchun!" ”

Knowing that Cao Cao led people to withdraw, Yuan Shu thought he was dreaming, until he personally climbed the city tower, looked at it, and looked at it for a long time, the camp tents outside the city were scattered all over the place, and the knives and spears were thrown everywhere, Cao Bing left in a hurry, and even said that he was a little embarrassed, but it was indeed really withdrawn.

"It's a retreat, it's really dangerous!"

Yuan Shu finally breathed a sigh of relief, his tense nerves suddenly relaxed, his body went limp, and he leaned weakly against the city wall.

However, after a while, suddenly, the ground under his feet seemed to shake a few times, Yuan Shu didn't care at first, but as time went by, the sound became louder and louder, Yuan Shu rubbed his eyes and looked at his feet, sure enough, not only the ground was shaking, but even the gravel and dust under his feet shook and jumped.

In my ears, the wind was whistling, and there was a faint sound of horses' hooves, and the sound was getting faster and closer.

Yuan Shu was startled, hurriedly put his body on the battlements, and muttered suspiciously in his heart, "Is it possible, Cao Mengde deliberately deceived me, he didn't really withdraw his troops." ”

The sound of horses' hooves became louder and louder, and it was really heard, not only Yuan Shu's eyes widened in horror, but the soldiers defending the city also trembled in horror.

At this time, for Yuan Shu's generals, it was finally relieved, everyone's nervous nerves for several days were almost on the verge of collapse, but fortunately gritted their teeth and held on, Cao Cao's sudden withdrawal of troops made all the soldiers not only relaxed, but also could no longer withstand the toss.

It's like an athlete who grits his teeth and insists on running a marathon, tired and exhausted, and finally persevered to the finish line.

Even if the little devil is forced with a gun, I'm afraid I won't be able to run.

It didn't take long for Yuan Shu's eyes to finally flash out a group of cavalry, the first one, white-robed Xuanjia, straddle the horse and cross the sword, it was Lu Zhuo.

"It's you!?"

After recognizing Lu Zhuo, Yuan Shu couldn't figure out Lu Zhuo's intention, and hurriedly asked, "Lu Zhuo, what are you doing?" ”

Lu Zhuo looked at the Cao Bing camp tents scattered outside the city, then looked at Yuan Shu and said with a smile, "Highway, you can see the outside, didn't you always ask me to save you before, what, do you think Cao Cao will retreat for no reason?" ”

"So, you helped me!"

Lu Zhuo nodded, and hurriedly shouted at him, "I came from a long distance, tired all the way, why, don't invite me in!" ”

Although Yuan Shu was a little suspicious, he didn't think much about it when he saw that there were only a few hundred cavalry around Lu Zhuo, not to mention, Cao Cao's retreat, speaking of which, it was really thanks to Lu Zhuo's merits.

However, when Lu Zhuo entered the city, for Yuan Shu and others, it undoubtedly meant that the end had come.

As soon as the city gate opened, Lu Zhuo led people to rush into Shouchun, even if Yuan Shu sensed that something was wrong, it would be useless, because, behind Lu Zhuo, Chen Deng led an army of 60,000 to kill.

Where did Yuan Shu's soldiers still have the strength to resist, so they simply threw away their blades and surrendered on the spot, while Yuan Shu panicked and finally escaped with hundreds of remnants.

In this way, Lü Zhuo captured Shouchun, which Cao Cao had besieged for a year, almost without bloodshed.

In fact, Lu Zhuo prepared a two-handed plan, if Yuan Shu opened the city, it would be the best, if Yuan Shu did not open the city, he would directly lead the troops to attack, anyway, this Shouchun was easy for him.

When Cao Cao arrived at Shouchun, the banner of the Xuzhou soldiers had already floated on the city tower, and the flag sails dancing in the wind seemed to be mocking Cao Cao's incompetence, but Cao Cao was not light, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he almost vomited blood.

Seeing that Cao Cao arrived with his troops, Lu Zhuo squinted his eyes and led people to climb the city wall, and arched his hand at Cao Cao, Lu Zhuo sneered, "Meng De, don't come to harm, haha...... It's really thanks to you, as the saying goes, God doesn't take it, but suffers the blame, you just give it to me, and I will laugh and accept it. ”

"You..."

The angry Cao Cao gritted his teeth, his nose was about to smoke, he fought with Yuan Shu for two years, and he besieged Shouchun for a year just by leading the troops to surround Shouchun, but in the end, he made a wedding dress for others and cheapened Lu Zhuo.

"Come on, pass my order, attack the city immediately, I have to tear Lu Zhuo'er into pieces, otherwise, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart."

"Haha, Cao Cao, even if you don't do it, I won't show mercy!"

As soon as Lu Zhuo waved his hand, thousands of archers stood up on the city wall at the same time, and all the arrows were aimed at Cao Jun, as long as Cao Cao dared to attack the city, he would inevitably pay a tragic price.

Guo Jia wanted to persuade Cao Cao, where did Cao Cao listen, and immediately ordered the siege of the city, Lu Zhuo's side waited for work, and was well prepared, Cao Zhuo's soldiers hurried repeatedly, and the soldiers were very tired, and they rushed to kill for a while, except for the addition of thousands of dead bodies in plain white, it was not a threat to Lu Zhuo at all.

Just when Cao Cao was angry, someone suddenly came to report, "The lord, Yuan Shao's general Zhang He, led the troops to attack Xuchang, and I hope that the lord will return to the army quickly!" ”
