Chapter 396: A Sudden Army
Wei Xiao smiled on the side: "Boss, I think it's rare for you to have nothing to do, so you are so idle." ”
Liu He patted his thigh and agreed: "No, you said that it is rare for us to have such a few days of leisure, and we are used to being busy on weekdays, which is really awkward." ”
The little black fat man walked over and said bitterly: "You have to learn to calm down in order to be a good guard, you used to run around with people, that is, to lead people to fight this and that, and you have never guarded the city." This defending the city is about a peace of mind, and it is best that no one has come to offend, which is the highest state of defending the city. ”
Liu He glanced at him, "No one has come to attack, is that guarding the city, that's guarding the tomb!" ”
The little black fat man frowned, "You said that you are a person, why are you so immodest, I don't easily talk about these experiences with others, and you don't like to listen to them." ”
Liu He crossed his legs, "To tell you the truth, I still don't like to hear it, I can't wait for Cao Cao's hundreds of thousands of soldiers to come to the city now, and it's better than me doing nothing here." ”
Han Yi seemed to be in a good mood, and he also joked with Liu He, "Boss, don't say that, just this small Mo City, if Cao Cao's hundreds of thousands of troops really come, no one can defend it, let alone the army attacking the city, I estimate that Cao Jun will poke the wall of Mo City every person, and the city wall will collapse." ”
Han Yi's words caused everyone to laugh.
At this moment, a soldier from outside came to report.
Liu He looked up at the sky, at this hour, it should be a routine report by the officers and soldiers guarding the city, and generally speaking, there is nothing important, so Liu He stretched out a kick and kicked Chen Mo next to him, signaling him to go out and have a look.
Chen Mo reluctantly stood up and walked out.
After Chen Mo went out, Wei Xiao said with a smile: "Boss, you said that Chen Mo is a good kid, this time he is so calm, and he didn't make any trouble to go to the front line." ”
Liu He pursed his lips disdainfully, "If the dog can change to eat, Cao Cao can kneel and call me dad." ”
As soon as the words fell, Chen Mo rushed in at a trot, shouting excitedly: "Boss, your dream has come true!" We're going to have a fight this time! Ha ha! ”
Liu He sighed, stood up lazily, and said impatiently: "Look at what makes you excited, at most it is a small group of hundreds of people, and where this kind of bird doesn't, Cao Jun probably can't look down on it." ”
Chen Mo seemed to be still immersed in excitement, jumping with joy, but he kept shaking his head in a pretended to be mysterious.
Liu He frowned, "How many people are Cao Jun here?" ”
Chen Mo smiled and stretched out three fingers.
"Thirty thousand?" Liu He, Zhong Lixun and Pang Tong exclaimed in unison.
Chen Mo waved his hand and said proudly: "No, it's 300,000!" ”
When everyone heard this, they were like being struck by lightning, and their faces sank.
Zhong Lixun took the lead in getting up and said to Chen Mo: "You go and call the soldiers outside the door to come in, and I'll ask him." ”
As Chen Mo walked, he muttered in a low voice, "I still don't believe it when I tell you... ”
Not long after, the soldier who came to report the news was called in, and when he saw Liu He, he immediately knelt down on one knee, hugged his fists and said: "Mr. Tianji, something is wrong, Cao Cao's army will arrive in the city immediately, with as many as 300,000 troops!" ”
Chen Mo still didn't relent: "I heard it, I told you that it was 300,000, and you still think I was lying to you." ”
At this time, no one had the heart to entangle with a heartless guy like Chen Mo anymore, Liu He immediately took everyone to climb the city wall, and sure enough, he saw that the black pressure was overwhelming, and the Cao army was surging in the direction of Mo City.
As the saying goes, there are 1,000 people, 10,000 people, boundless, and the formation of 300,000 Cao troops, coupled with standing on a high place, gives people an extremely strong shock.
This kind of shock is undoubtedly equivalent to a kind of shock for the ordinary soldiers on the city wall, Liu He noticed that a local soldier in Mocheng who had just returned to Shun a few days ago beside him had already begun to tremble in his legs.
Sister Da Mengzi looked at those Cao Jun calmly, and said in a strange manner: "Did these Cao Jun take the wrong medicine or have a seizure, you said that they didn't go to support the Western Front where the war was tight, why did they run to a place like Mocheng where birds don't?" ”
Liu He smiled bitterly, "Why else, of course it's for me." ”
Zhong Lixun and Pang Tong glanced at each other, but neither made a sound.
Indeed, the only reason that this silent city can attract Cao Jun is that Mr. Tianji is here, and in addition, I really can't think of a second reason to mobilize 300,000 troops to come.
"I knew that today, when I was in Huarong Dao, I shouldn't have let Cao Cao go back." Although Liu He said this with a smile, there was obviously a trace of bitterness at the corner of his mouth.
Judging from the speed of Cao's army's advance, it was too late to withdraw immediately at this time, and Liu He could only order the city gate to be closed tightly and not out.
But it is not a long-term plan to hold on, although Han Yi said that it was a joke just now, he also broke the low level of Mocheng's garrison.
With the tattered city walls of Mocheng on all sides, so many Cao troops can be pushed down even if they are pushed, and it is impossible to use such a small number of troops to defend Mocheng.
The city gate was quickly closed, and everyone stood at the head of the city, watching Cao Jun gradually surround him, and finally besiege Mocheng.
"Boss, if you don't avoid it first, I'm afraid of ......," Wei Xiao reminded cautiously.
"Afraid of the other party's dark arrows?" Liu He smiled, "Do you think that with this kind of military advantage, they can still use hidden arrows to hurt people?" ”
Liu He knew very well that Wei Xiao didn't mean this, Wei Xiao was afraid that the other party would recognize him at a glance, so he let himself go out of the city and surrender in exchange for the lives of others.
Liu He understood Wei Xiao's hard work, but he had already made a decision, if the other party really put forward such a condition, it would be a good thing, at least then everyone would not have to die here.
At this time, a general walked out of the Cao army's formation, and said loudly: "Guan Neihou, the backbone general Xu Chu, please Mr. Tianji come out to speak!" ”
Liu He never expected that Cao Cao would send Xu Chu over, Xu Chu had always been Cao Cao's guard before, no matter where he went, Cao Cao would take Xu Chu with him.
This also means that Cao Cao seems to attach great importance to sending troops to Mocheng this time, and it seems that it is inevitable.
Liu He thought about it and walked towards the city.
"Wait!" Pang Tong suddenly stepped forward, "The Cao army has 300,000 troops, and we only have more than 1,000 people, in this situation, why is Xu Chu so polite, and he deliberately added a title and official position in front of his name, which must be strange." ”
After Pang Tong's reminder, Liu He also realized the strangeness in this.
