Chapter 902: Crisis

"Guo Junshi is not in Xuchang, after His Majesty left, Guo Junshi also left."

The person who delivered the letter immediately replied after listening to Liu Wei's inquiry.

That's all he knows, and as for the other specifics, no one tells him, so he naturally doesn't know.

So when Liu Wei asked later, he could only shake his head.

Liu Wei could also understand, so he motioned for the man to go down and rest.

"Your Majesty, now that Yingchuan City has been lost, Sima Yi will inevitably come to Xuchang, Xuchang is dangerous."

Zhao Yun looked at Liu Wei at this time and said, this is really good news before it is hot, and this bad news is sweeping in.

"Xuchang is in danger, so we need to withdraw our troops."

Liu Wei nodded after listening to Zhao Yun's words, of course he also knew.

Now fortunately, Xu Huang and Chen Zhi took Zhaoling down, if Zhaoling is not recovered, then their situation will be worse at this time.

Because at that time, he will be in a dilemma, and he will not even be able to retreat to Xuchang for assistance.

Once retreated, Cao Cao's army would definitely not let itself retreat easily.

In this way, once you retreat, you will be chased and beaten by Cao Cao.

But now that Zhaoling has been taken back, the situation will be much better.

Because they can rely on Zhaoling to defend and block the pass of Cao Cao's army.

Relying on the city, it is naturally better.

"The army, retreat to Zhaoling overnight, and then return to Xuchang to see what the hell Sima Yi is doing."

Liu Wei finally looked at Zhao Yun and said, now at this time, there is no way not to retreat.

And now Liu Wei himself is also puzzled, wanting to know where Guo Jia went.

"Retreat tonight, retreat with suspicious soldiers, if Cao Cao receives the news that Cao Hong is defeated and loses Zhaoling, and knows the news that Sima Yi has broken through Yingchuan City, he will definitely not let us retreat easily."

After thinking about it, Liu Wei opened his mouth and instructed that Cao Cao was a smart person, so Cao Cao would definitely understand that he would retreat at that time.

In this way, if you don't guard against it, then you will definitely be pursued by Cao Cao and suffer heavy losses.

Now there are only more than 2,000 people left, and if they are losing a lot, then this time Changshe and Zhaoling will lose a lot of their own people.

"Zilong understands." Zhao Yun nodded after listening to Liu Bian's words and said, even if Liu Biao didn't say it, Zhao Yun would do it.

The two armies were at war, although it is said that the transmission of information in ancient times was not as convenient as in modern times.

But Cao Cao naturally received the news at this time, not much later than Liu Wei.

After Cao Cao knew that Cao Hong had lost Zhaoling, his face suddenly darkened.

"Reckless, give me such a mistake at this time."

Cao Cao also scolded directly, which lost Zhaoling, which means that Liu Wei can have a city to defend himself from attacking from Changshe.

Originally, if Cao Hong had insisted on holding out for some time, then he would have attacked Liu Wei directly after Cao Ang and the others returned to the army.

But now that all this has been ruined, it doesn't matter if you attack yourself.

"Lord, Sima Yi has sent news that he has taken Yingchuan down, and now he is approaching Xuchang."

Cao Cao hadn't finished venting yet, and at this time, news had already come in again.

After Cao Cao heard the news, he was even more angry, "Cao Hong, it's a big mistake for me." ”

Cao Cao sighed, if Cao Hong hadn't lost Zhaoling.

Then Liu Wei will not be able to return to Xuchang to support so calmly, so the situation of Sima Yi's army will naturally be better.

Once Yingchuan and Xuchang are taken, then Yingchuan County can be said to be almost in their own pockets.

Then at that time, Liu Wei had to withdraw his troops from Yingchuan County and retreat to Runan County.

But now everything is different, Cao Hong lost Zhaoling.

Liu Wei had a barrier to keep the city northwest of Xuchang.

Once Liu Wei returned to the army, Sima Yi wanted to take this Xuchang City, and the difficulties could be imagined.

"Lord, now that the matter has come to this, how should we act, why not just let the Han army retreat?"

"No, if I were Liu Wei and wanted to retreat, it would definitely be tonight, so we need to attack tonight." Cao Cao immediately spoke.

At this time, how could Liu Bian's army retreat so calmly.

After Cao Cao made a decision, he immediately asked people to prepare.

Cao Cao prepared to attack Liu Wei at night, but Liu Wei was planning how to retreat smoothly.

Only Sima Yi is the most calm for the time being, at this time he has already taken Yingchuan City, and all the plans are smooth.

Therefore, Sima Yi is naturally happy, if he can completely take Yingchuan County, and then he can successfully conquer Xuzhou.

In this way, it will be easy to take Yuzhou at that time.

At that time, the situation in the world will be shaken.

"Strategist, General Cao Hong is here."

Sima Yi was stunned for a moment, why did Cao Hong come here at this time.

Zhaoling was lost.

Sima Yi understood what was going on in an instant.

Zhaoling is lost, and now that Liu Wei and Cao Cao are deadlocked in Changshe, Cao Hong will definitely not go back?

Only by immediately going in the direction of Xuchang and coming to find yourself is the safest.

And if you lose Zhaoling, you need to bear the responsibility, and you will not be punished by Cao Cao.

So Cao Hong is coming to himself now, if he can make a contribution when attacking Xuchang, he can make a credit for his guilt at that time.

Sima Yi quickly analyzed Cao Hong's thoughts thoroughly.

Indeed, Cao Hong came with the same idea as Sima Yi thought.

"Let him in." Sima Yi said after thinking about it.

Although it is said that Cao Hong lost Zhaoling and caused an accident in his plan, but the matter has come to this point, it is useless to complain.

Cao Hong walked in very embarrassed at this time, and as soon as he came in, he saluted Sima Yi and knelt down on one knee.

"Military advisor, if the tomb is lost, the last general will be guilty." Cao Hong looked at Sima Yi with a sad face and said.

"Guilty, of course you're guilty." Sima Yi looked at Cao Hong and said with a sneer.

If it weren't for the fact that Cao Hong was still useful, he would have wanted to send Cao Hong away directly.

"Tell me, how did you lose this Zhaoling?" Sima Yi looked at Cao Hong and asked again.

There are seven or eight thousand people in this Zhaoling, and as long as Cao Hong guards the Zhaoling, there will be no problem at all.

Unless Liu Wei has enough men to take Zhaoling in one go, but in fact he doesn't.

But even so, in the end, he still lost and lost Zhaoling.

Cao Hong is still thinking about relying on Sima Yi, and when the time comes to attack Xuchang, he can make meritorious contributions, so Cao Hong naturally didn't dare to hide anything from Sima Yi's inquiry.

Soon Cao Hong told Sima Yi everything.

After hearing this, Sima Yi glanced at Cao Hong and did not continue to say anything.

Because he knew that just by virtue of this strategy, Xu Huang had already defeated Cao Hong.

So since this is the case, it is not uncommon for Cao Hong to lose Zhaoling.

No matter how much I say, I can't change anything.

"Zhongda, you have to help me this time, if I can't make meritorious contributions, the lord will definitely punish me at that time."

"Zhongda, as long as you can help me this time, I will definitely remember your kindness, and in the future, if you have instructions, I, Cao Hong, will definitely try my best to do it."

Cao Hong saw that Sima Yi didn't say a word after listening to his words, and didn't say anything, but Cao Hong became a little anxious.

At this time, it was obvious that he was wrong, not to mention that he lost the city by falling into the scheme, and he also lost his troops and generals.

So at this time, even if Sima Yi blames him, Cao Hong will feel more comfortable.

At least in this way, when the time comes, he can let Sima Yi intercede for himself, and he can make meritorious service to himself.

"General Cao doesn't have to be like this, since the matter has come to this, I don't think you want to see it." Sima Yi looked at Cao Hong and said.

Of course, this is not what he wants to see, Cao Hong nodded immediately after listening to Sima Yi's words.

"Zhongda, no matter what you command, just say it, I am willing to make meritorious deeds."
