After Li Dao was defeated, he had no courage to continue to get along with Cao Jun.

Now, the emperor has also been rescued by Cao Cao to Yanzhou.

Without the emperor as a threat, he is now like a rat crossing the street, afraid that everyone will shout and beat.

I thought that I would be able to resist Cao Jun's attack, and at least I would be able to maintain my strength in the pass.

But now it seems that Cao Jun is too fierce.

Along the way, he has been retreating from several cities, and now if he retreats, there will be no place to retreat.

In order to survive, Li Dao had no choice but to flee to the land of Hanzhong.

Because the land of Hanzhong is a place where the road is difficult and dangerous, if there is only a small army walking, it may be easier, but if it is a large number of troops, it is naturally not so easy.

He will also be blocked by those forces in the land of Hanzhong, and then Cao Jun will definitely give up the pursuit, and he can escape.

started from following Dong Zhuo, fought repeatedly, and after Dong Zhuo's death, he turned against his former brothers for the so-called power.

Now that they have been beaten by Cao's army, they have lost their cities one after another, and the soldiers are also exhausted and cannot fight.

Under such circumstances, Li Dao naturally knew that if he continued to persevere, he would only die.

Therefore, the only way to give up the entire Guanzhong and take his personal guards and others directly to the land of Hanzhong to escape, when the time comes, occupy the mountain as the king, and be in a safe corner, maybe he can still live.

Originally, the land of Xiliang was the best place to escape, and it was also the most suitable place to escape.

But because he had a festival with Ma Teng, the lord of Xiliang, and Han Sui, and the two sides also fought, they were enemies of life and death.

And Li Dao is now defeated by Cao Jun, and his strength has been greatly weakened, and he has gone to Xiliang, I am afraid that he will not be in the mouth of a tiger.

The army was reorganized a little, and the soldiers who were still able to go to the battlefield were kept to block the pursuers behind them.

The remaining wounded soldiers and remnants were also arranged in the county seat, and this was also done to cover up, not only to comfort the people who followed him, but also to make others think that he still had a backhand.

In fact, Li Dao just wanted to escape.

Knowing that it is not possible to do it, it is a very stupid act, after such a long time of endless battles, seeing clearly the form he is in, Li Dao knows the consequences of continuing to persevere.

"General Xu has sent a letter from there, he has integrated the forces in the north, Duan Xuan and the others have been surrendered, and now they have also reached the border of Xiliang, this Li Dao wants to escape to Xiliang, I'm afraid it is impossible."

Cao Ren pointed to the route on the map and continued: "There is still one more road, at the border of Hanzhong, and both roads are encircled.

The biggest possibility for Li Dao was to retreat to Hanzhong, because he had fought with Ma Teng and Han Sui in Xiliang.

Judging from the information I have received, Li Dao is now preparing to flee, and the pursuers I sent out were blocked by Li Dao's people, but they did not see Li Dao, which can already confirm that Li Dao has fled.

Generals, Li Dao was originally following Dong Zhuo, but after Dong Zhuo's death, this person actually wanted to blackmail His Majesty.

Now that His Majesty has been saved, he also hates such thieves.

Therefore, he must die, and he must be killed by us.

Now, I announce the ...... of the order. ”

Cao Ren made the deployment directly, and every general was given orders.

Because Li Dao wanted to escape, many cities in the Guannai land were not recovered.

Now that Cao's army has formed an encirclement, Li Dao will not be able to escape, but those cities will definitely be recovered.

And the other armies were already in place to prevent Li Dao from escaping, and the matter of attacking the city and plundering the land was naturally handed over to the main army.

This can also form a pressure to force Li Dao to come forward earlier.

Cao Ang has a credit for guarding the grain and grass, and he performed very well, and now he also has a siege mission.

After everything was arranged, Cao Ang took his own men and the warriors that Cao Ren had divided to supplement and formed an army.

The goal is a small county town, which is not very difficult for Cao Ang, and it is also a kind of exercise.

Bringing soldiers and horses to the outside of the county town and sending soldiers to call for battle, this can also reduce the losses of the siege battle.

As a result, after hearing that it was Cao's army, the generals defending the city directly announced their surrender.

Cao Ang was a little surprised, and then said angrily: "This is too unmanly, right, I can't fight, it's too cowardly." ”

Chu Feng felt that this was the best, "Surrendering the army without a fight is the highest solution to the war, and it is also the best plan."

If we really want to solve the problem by means of war, we don't know how much we will lose at that time. ”

Cao Ang was about to enter the city directly with the army, but was stopped by Chu Feng, who waved his hand to let the advance troops enter the city and probe the enemy's reality just in case.

"With you, I'm much more relaxed, and I don't have to think about it so much." Cao Ang didn't want to admit that it was his carelessness.

Chu Feng didn't think that Cao Ang's tricks should be exposed at this time, and he always had to give Cao Ang a little face.

"No problem, let's go in, I'll go to other cities tomorrow."

Cao Ang nodded, urged his horse forward, waved his hand, and ordered the whole army to enter the city.

When the army led by Cao Ang entered, the small county town was overcrowded at once.

And Cao Ang also understood why the defenders of the city had to surrender, and every soldier in an army of less than a thousand people was also depressed.

Under such circumstances, how could they still fight, and in the face of Cao Ang's 5,000-strong army, they felt powerless.

After taking over the county, the first thing to do is to comfort the people, and since it is to comfort the people, then it is necessary to take out the grain.

The people and the soldiers guarding the city can get food, plus the grain in the county, as well as the food of those merchants or small families, after they are divided, they can also spend this winter.

For Cao Jun, who has just entered the city, they are the masters of this county, and those families who are still hoarding grain naturally want to contribute some grain.

Otherwise, they would definitely condone their soldiers to rob, and at that time, even if it was a small family, they couldn't resist it.

It's better to be smart and take the initiative to hand over some food.

The next day, Cao Ang left his lieutenant general in the county seat and took the newly joined soldiers to another city.

This time, it's not that easy.

Because the county seat has been attacked by mountain bandits, and now it is occupying the city as the king.

In the face of the county occupied by the mountain bandits, there is only one battle.

There is still a difference between the regular army and those mountain bandits, because they are all mountain bandits and have not undergone much training.

This was stimulated a few times, and he directly opened the city gate and fought with Cao Ang.

The result can be imagined, Cao Ang led his own people, directly like harvesting cabbage, harvesting the lives of mountain bandits.
