However, if they withdrew from Hefei City, it would obviously be a blow to the morale of the army and a blow to Cao Cao's prestige.

If nothing else, none of the generals in front of him will be convinced.

Therefore, it is difficult for Cao Cao to make this decision, whether he withdraws or not, it is not easy to make a decision.

"A few of you will also talk about whether to withdraw or not." Cao Cao asked a few strategists.

Several of the strategists hesitated, they were literati, and they were worried more, and they were very difficult to decide on this matter.

Several people didn't dare to speak easily, and Cao Cao was very helpless.

"All the generals, go back and prepare for war."

Cao Cao is helpless, they are here, and the pressure on these civil officials is too great.

Just now, I couldn't wait to find Zhang Yu desperately, but now that these civil officials are asked to say different suggestions, they are all afraid of being torn apart by this group of generals.

Cao Cao said: "If you don't withdraw the army, I'm afraid you must send a very trustworthy army to restrain the soldiers, otherwise once the soldiers are out of control and do something to the people in the city, the matter will not end well." ”

Cao Cao had never made such a difficult decision as he did today.

He has always been very decisive.

Last time, Zhang Yu forced him to abandon Liu Xie, and he had never made such a difficult decision as now.

Although the generals were gone, the dozen or so strategists still did not dare to speak easily.

It's too hard to decide, and they all know the seriousness of the matter.

said that he retreated, offended a group of veteran generals in the army, and I don't know if there will be any bad end in the future.

Once they say that they will not retreat, none of the soldiers inside will come to think of it, and if the people in the city also suffer, they will face an even greater disaster.

For more than an hour, no one spoke, Cao Cao asked people to bring tables and chairs, a few people sat there, occasionally someone drank the tea on the table, and then it was very quiet.

The stakes are so high, and the decision-making is so difficult.

Zhang Yu didn't have much time left for them, five days, and they only had five days.

Five days have passed, and now almost two days have passed.

In fact, Cao Cao and they only have more than a day to make a decision.

Cao Cao waited for more than an hour, but still no one spoke, so he could only speak first.

"Let's talk about it, no matter what happens in the future, as long as this king is still there, no one will dare to touch you, and Ang'er is kind and understands the overall situation."

Cao Cao wanted to reassure them and reassure them.

Several of their strategists knew that Cao Cao would not attack them, but Cao Cao was old after all, and who knew if other people would settle accounts with them.

Cao Cao's methods are clever and can suppress others.

Once Cao Cao is gone, what will happen to them, or will anyone settle accounts with their descendants.

These are what they are worried about, Cao Cao, who has been forced to do so, can't make a decision, so he can only explain things very clearly.

Everyone still has all kinds of worries, but they don't have much choice in this matter.

Cao Cao can't afford it, which means that they can't afford it, so they have to make a choice.

Cheng Yu said: "Lord, it's better to retreat, if you don't retreat, things will be difficult to control." ”

There are too many consequences of not retreating.

Jia Xu said: "Lord, it may be the best choice to let the soldiers of the whole city go out of the city to fight Zhang Yu." ”

Jia Xu's proposal was very constructive, and they were all entangled in whether to withdraw or not to withdraw before, but they had not thought of other options.

And, now, Jia Xu gave them a better choice.

Zhang Yu just asked them to withdraw from the city, and when they got outside the city, they could be regarded as withdrawing.

A decisive battle outside the city is also acceptable to them.

Cao troops in the city had 80,000 troops, originally planned to resist them for ten to fifteen days, and then withdraw.

Originally, it was planned to use a few cities to drag Zhang Yu for about a year, and finally keep Shouchun City, and then their entire power would settle down.

Luoyang and Chang'an, it is not so difficult to recover, he believes in Cao Ang's talent.

Everything was well calculated. But Zhang Yu didn't want them to go according to plan.

In the battle to the north, they lost several places in succession.

The most important thing is the loss of troops.

Zhang Yu fights, likes to surround them, and then attack from all sides, eating all the troops in their city in one go.

This style of play is actually not the best way to play.

It is better to surround the three and lack one, to give hope to the army in the city that they will not fight to the death.

But Zhang Yu is not like this, attacking from all sides, and fighting to the end if he does not surrender.

There is no other option.

Zhang Yu didn't expect Cao Jun to go back, and one veteran could be worth several recruits.

Zhang Yu lost some more troops and did not give Cao's army a chance to withdraw.

This kind of strategy, only Zhang Yu dares to do this, and only Zhang Yu can support it.

The reason is very simple, this approach can make none of the soldiers of the Cao army go back, whether it is a soldier or a general.

This blow is very big, whoever is surrounded by Zhang Yu will not be able to go back.

Cao Cao lost a lot of generals in a short period of time, as well as excellent soldiers.

In this way, Cao Cao must be very cautious next.

Be cautious, once an important general is surrounded by Zhang Yu, he will have to find a way to rescue him.

Zhang Yu was so simple and rude when he started fighting.

During this time, Cao Cao did suffer a very large loss, which he did not expect.

It's too far from the previous strategy.

At first, Zhang Yu's progress was indeed very slow, but then it became faster and faster.

And Zhang Yu didn't think about the consequences at all.

He lost a lot of troops and horses, so he immediately replenished them from the rear. Now the rear has been training new soldiers and horses.

As much as you consume, Zhang Yu will replenish it.

has always kept the whole army in a certain number, putting huge pressure on Cao Cao.

Cao Cao did not dare to slack off, so he immediately ordered the army in Hefei to go out of the city to fight.

"Let Xiahou Yuan lead 30,000 troops to support, the army is under his command, after a battle, try to withdraw the army as much as possible, and this king will personally lead the troops to respond."

It is necessary to fight, and it must be fought outside the city, otherwise Cao Cao is afraid of Zhang Yu, which is no different from retreating directly.

Cao Cao finally made such a difficult decision, and although the impact was minimized, it was still very unfavorable to them.

"It's tough."

Cao Cao sighed.

As for Zhang Yu, they received news on the fourth day that Cao Jun went out of the city to arrange and prepare for a decisive battle with them outside the city.

"Lord, I didn't expect this to really happen." Dian Wei on the side felt very incredible.

"Cao Cao's choice is very difficult, this is their best choice, and I don't want Hefei City to experience a harsh war again."

After Zhang Yu finished speaking, he began to order, and this time Zhang Yu's entire army pressed up, and at the same time put a lot of pressure on them.

"In the future, I will often bully more and less, and if you have the ability, Cao Cao will do whatever it takes to recruit soldiers and horses."

Zhang Yu was not surprised by Cao Cao's choice, and he began to order the army to pull out the camp and set off for Hefei City.
