Xun Chen helped Yuan Tan collect the remnants of Yuan Shang all the way.

Yuan Shang had already been defeated, but Cao Cao did not attack Yecheng.

After more than ten days, the snow melted, and although the climate was still cold, the walls of Yecheng were no longer slippery.

Cao Jun chose this time to launch a total.

The city was short of supplies, and there were no stones, oil, or logs to use.

Yuan Jun has also run out of arrows.

The defenders of the city could only rely on the weapons in their hands to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the Cao army.

More and more Cao troops climbed the city wall, and Yecheng was finally broken by Cao's army.

Before the siege, Xu Chu asked Cao Cao for his life, asking him to be allowed to participate in the siege.

Knowing that Xu Chu was sincere for his meritorious service, Cao Cao did not shirk it, and immediately agreed.

The city gate had been opened by Cao Jun, and Xu Chu, who had already fought on the city wall, stepped on a war horse sent to him by Cao Jun.

As soon as he got on horseback, he heard a wild laugh behind him.

Hearing this burst of wild laughter, Xu Chu couldn't help frowning.

Before he heard the voice, he knew that it was Xu Yu who was laughing wildly.

Riding a horse to Xu Chu's side, Xu You asked, "Is it refreshing that the general killed just now?" ”

I didn't like Xu Yu very much, Xu Chu replied with a not very good face: "It's okay, the soldiers worked together, and it didn't take much effort to break through the city." ”

"If it weren't for me, Cao Apu would have become a prisoner of the Yuan family at this time." Xu You said with a smile: "You people have already lost their heads with him. ”

"Breaking through the city is the soldier's life, what does it have to do with you?" Xu You called Cao Cao's name, Xu Chu was suddenly angry, and asked him, "Cao Gong's trumpet is also what you can call?" ”

"What if I call him?" Xu Chu's attitude also angered Xu You, and he replied loudly: "Don't think that you have made a lot of merit by climbing the city wall. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have died hundreds of times. ”

"You are so rude!" Xu You's arrogance angered Xu Chu, but he still endured it.

"What's wrong with me being rude?" Xu Chu said: "In my eyes, you people are just dead corpses that should have died a long time ago, is it possible to pay attention to etiquette with you?" ”

"Dead bodies?" Xu Chu's forehead was bulging, and he glared at Xu You angrily and shouted, "Today I will make you a dead corpse!" ”

Before the words fell, he picked up his weapon and slashed it at Xu You's head.

Poor Xu You, he didn't expect Xu Chu to kill him, and he was split into two pieces by Xu Chu before he came back to his senses.

Xu Chu slashed Xu You, and the Cao Jun who ran past them were all stunned.

Some people heard the conversation between Xu Chu and Xu You, and although they agreed with Xu Chu's approach in their hearts, they didn't dare to bring it up in person.

Killing Xu You, Xu Chu looked down at the corpse, and a group of people ran over to this side.

It was Cao Chun who took the lead.

Seeing that Xu You was killed, Cao Chun asked, "General Xu, what's going on?" ”

"This guy is rude, he dares to slander the officers and soldiers of the three armies, and he dares to call Cao Gong Trumpet." Xu Chu said: "I killed him. ”

"Xu You has already joined Cao Gong and killed his colleagues privately, General Xu should know what the crime is." Cao Chun arched his hand to Xu Chu: "General, offended!" ”

He shouted to Cao Jun who was following behind him: "Tie up Xu Chu to me!" ”

Several Cao soldiers were about to step forward, and Xu Chu said: "I don't need you, I killed someone, and I will go to ask Cao Gong for guilt." Whether it is killing or chopping, Cao Gong only needs to say one word. ”

"Send General Xu to see Cao Gong." Seeing this, Cao Chun no longer let the soldiers bind Xu Chu, and he instructed several Cao Jun.

Witnessed by a group of soldiers, those Cao soldiers escorted Xu Chu to see Cao Cao.

Cao Cao only entered Yecheng at this time.

As soon as he entered the city gate, someone reported to him that Xu Chu had killed Xu You.

Stunned for a moment, Cao Cao didn't say anything, and took Guo Jia, Xun You and others to the city surrounded by guards.

didn't go far, Xu Chu was escorted by several Cao Jun to meet him.

Walking in front, Xu Chu shook his shoulders, looking like he didn't know what he had done wrong.

"I've seen Cao Gong." Blocking the way of Cao Cao and others, Xu Chu saluted and said, "I committed a crime and killed someone." ”

Although he already knew who Xu Chu killed, Cao Cao still asked, "Who did Zhong Kang kill?" ”

"Xu You." Xu Chu said proudly: "That guy dared to call Cao Gong Trumpet, and slandered the soldiers of the three armies, I couldn't get angry for a while, and killed him." ”

When the staff beside Cao Cao heard that Xu Chu had killed Xu You, a shallow smile appeared on the corner of their mouths.

"Zhongkang killed someone, what do you think of it?" Cao Cao asked his staff.

"Cao Gong." Xun You said: "General Xu is a bold person, and he has always been unable to listen to others say that Cao Gong is not good. Xu You is also dead, what to provoke him to do. I think this matter is still over, remember General Xu's mistake, let him not go out for a few days, and reflect on it. ”

"That's what Gongda said." When everyone heard this, they echoed it.

Unexpectedly, the staff actually opened their mouths to intercede for him, and Xu Chu looked dazed.

He thought of what Cao Shuo had said earlier, and now he thought about it carefully, as if Cao Shuo was also instructing him to kill Xu You, but he didn't say it directly.

Cao Cao sighed and said to Xu You: "Since everyone is interceding for you, I can't go against the will of the people, you lock yourself in the room when you enter Yecheng, and you are not allowed to go out for three days, think about whether this matter should be or not." ”

He then said: "Xu You is a talent, it is really a pity that Zhong Kang killed him. Let him collect his body and bury him. ”

Cao Cao actually judged his guilt lightly, and Xu Chu was even more confused.

No wonder Cao Shuo didn't persuade him not to kill Xu Yu in the first place.

Dare Qing had long expected that his staff would intercede for him, and Cao Cao would not pretend to be a felony......

Cao Cao led everyone to walk by, and Xu Chu, who had come back to his senses, hurriedly turned around and bowed to Cao Cao's back.

The Yuan army in the city did not last long, and soon the Cao army wiped out the resisting Yuan army and occupied the entire Yecheng.

Walking on the street, looking at the buildings on both sides, Cao Cao said: "Yecheng is really more prosperous than Xudu, if it weren't for Yuan Shao's battle with our Cao family in the past few years to collect a lot of money, I'm afraid it would be better here." ”

"Did Cao Gong think of living in Yecheng permanently?" Guo Jia asked.

"Why does Bonghyo ask that?" Cao Cao asked Guo Jia in surprise.

Guo Jia replied: "Although Xu Du is good, it is still too far from the north. If Cao Gong wants to win the world, he must first pacify the north. Sitting in Yecheng is indeed much stronger than in Xudu. ”

After staring at Guo Jia for a while, Cao Cao asked everyone again, "What do you mean?" ”

"Feng Xiao is right, staying in Yecheng is indeed much better than staying in Xudu." Xun You continued: "It's just that Xu Du still needs to have a large army, although it is in the middle of the Cao family's land, it is also the foundation of Cao Gongcheng's great affairs after all." ”
