The Xuzhou army retreated.

Gao Shun returned to the big array, and Chen Gong ran over.

"Who gave the order to retreat?" Chen Gong asked.

"All the siege bridges of our army were destroyed, and the soldiers could not go up to the city walls at all." Gao Shun shouted: "I don't let them retreat, I don't know how many more people will die at the foot of the city wall." ”

"Attacking the city at night, before dawn, you ordered to retreat?" Chen Gong glared and shouted, "Gao Shun, I have to ask you for the crime of fear!" ”

"I said a long time ago that this battle cannot be fought." Gao Shun said: "The soldiers fought all night and couldn't climb the city wall at all, so could it be that Chen Gong asked me to let the soldiers rush up by stepping on the corpses of their comrades?" ”

"Retreat from the battle, and dare to speak wisely!" Chen Gong instructed left and right: "Tie up Gao Shun to me!" ”

Chen Gong wanted to tie up Gao Shun, and the Xuzhou troops who withdrew looked at them in amazement.

"Chen Gong has mercy!" The two guards were about to step forward, when Zhang Liao ran over.

He hugged his fists and saluted Chen Gong and said, "Gong Chen, although General Gao has done it, what he said is also the truth. Cutting generals in battle is also not good for the morale of the army. Please also ask Chen Gongwang to open up and spare General Gao! ”

Chen Gong's face was very bad, his brows were furrowed, and he said to Gao Shun: "I came to attack Cao Zirong on the order of General Lu, even if General Gao does not approve of my strategy, he will have to act according to military orders in the future." ”

Gao Shun's face was also bad, but he didn't say anything.

Zhang Liao stepped forward and pushed Gao Shun away, and turned back to Chen Gong and said, "Gong Chen is angry, I will persuade General Gao!" ”

Seeing the two of them leave, Chen Gong instructed the guards: "Pass the order down, beware of Cao Zirong's soldiers from Xue County." ”

Pushing Gao Shun away, Zhang Liao lowered his voice and said: "General Gao, you too, Chen Gong has been ordered by General Lu, what are you messing with him?" ”

"If you follow the military order, can you not take the lives of the soldiers in your eyes?" Gao Shun said: "Tonight's siege, Wen Yuan also saw it, the soldiers fought hard all night, and when they climbed the city, they were repelled by the enemy, and all the siege bridges were burned, is it possible for me to take the soldiers to climb the city wall?" ”

"He said his, you admit your mistake." Zhang Liao said: "In my opinion, Xiao Pei can't hold it this time." ”

"If my camp is there, maybe there is still a possibility of a fight." Gao Shun sighed and said: "Cao Zirong is too cunning, he sees that there will be a fierce battle now, so he will destroy my trapped camp first!" ”

Zhang Liao also sighed and said: "Now it's just Cao Zirong, when Cao Cao's army comes, how can Xuzhou be saved?" ”

"If you can't keep it, you have to keep it!" Gao Shun said: "General Lu has the grace of knowing you and me, and we have followed him for many years, just because the Cao family is strong, we dare not compete with it, what face do we have to meet General Lu?" ”

Zhang Liao nodded and said nothing.

Gao Shun said again: "Our army came to Fan County, according to my expectations, Cao Zirong should be able to fight Xiao Pei and take the opportunity to take Xiao Pei." If our army withdraws to Xiaopei, we can still win for a while......"

"I've thought about what you said." Zhang Liao said: "However, if Chen Gongtai wants to drive Cao Zirong out of Xuzhou, he will definitely attack Xue County. ”

"The defenders of Xue County are different from here, they are all Cao Zirong's elite." Gao Shun said: "Even if the number of defenders is not as large as that of Fan County, it is impossible to break through Xue County. ”

"It's up to Chen Gongtai to decide." Zhang Liao said: "In fact, what he said is not unreasonable, even if our army takes the opportunity to break the soldiers and horses sent by Cao Zirong to Xiaopei, Fan County and Xue County are still in Cao Zirong's hands, and Xuzhou is unstable." ”

"How did the battle come to this?" Gao Shun slapped his palm with his fist in annoyance.

Chen Gong Bingfan County, Gao Shun led the army to attack the city unfavorably, at this time Xue County, Pang Tong also took the soldiers out of the county.

However, they did not go in the direction of Fan County, but went straight to Xiaopei.

Standing at the head of the city, looking at the departing army led by Pang Tong and Wei Yan, Cao Shuo said to Ji Ling on the side: "General Ji, as soon as the army leaves, I can only rely on you here." ”

"With Gongzi here, not to mention that there are a thousand soldiers and horses, even if there are only a hundred people, it is not a problem to resist tens of thousands of enemy troops." Ji Ling said: "I'm worried that Shi Yuan and Wen Chang won't be able to take Xiao Pei. ”

"Our army has the upper hand, they will definitely be able to take Xiao Pei." Cao Shuo said with a smile: "The longer the battle drags on now, the more beneficial it will be to our army, and the more unfavorable it will be to the enemy army." Chen Gong was in a hurry to attack Fan County, and he also saw this. Once the army led by his father entered Xuzhou, Chen Gong would never have a chance to fight back, if he couldn't capture Fan County and Xue County as soon as possible, it wouldn't be long before Xuzhou would change its flag. ”

"General Ji!" Cao Shuo changed his words and asked Ji Ling: "If you go to Huainan with me in the future, will you feel like you are revisiting your old place?" ”

Childe laughed. Ji Ling said: "I betrayed Yuan Highway in the middle of the road, what face do I have to return to Huainan?" ”

Gently patting his arm, Cao Shuo said: "Now some people may say that you are a traitor to seek glory, and when I occupy Huainan, those people are eager to please you." You are more familiar with Huainan than I am, if I go there in the future, where is the most appropriate place to govern? ”

"Shouchun!" Ji Ling said without thinking about it: "Shouchun is not far from Yuzhou, in the hinterland of the Caojia territory, and it is accessible in all directions, and the city is also very strong. In the past, the state of Chu used to take Shouchun as its capital. ”

"Since Shouchun is so good, why does Yuan Highway often go to Yangzhou?" Cao Shuo asked.

"Shouchun is too close to Yuzhou, which is a good thing for Gongzi, but it can't be considered a good thing for Yuan Highway! Yangzhou is relatively close to Jiangdong, Sun Ce recaptured Jiangdu thanks to Yuan Highway borrowing troops, once Huainan is in an emergency, he can still borrow troops from Sun Ce in Yangzhou! Ji Ling replied.

"Yuan Highway thinks well." Cao Shuo said with a smile: "I'm afraid that Sun Ce won't lend him troops, after all, he risked the world's disapproval to usurp the emperor, how many heroes in the world can tolerate him?" ”

"Childe thinks Yuan Highway did something inappropriate?" Ji Ling asked.

"Of course not." Cao Shuo said with a smile: "He has done what many people want to do but dare not do, not to mention that our Cao family is loyal to the Han Dynasty and will definitely crusade against Huainan, and those who want to be emperors themselves can't tolerate him." ”

"That's what Childe said!" Ji Ling said: "If Huainan is attacked, the jade seal of the country may fall into the hands of the prince......"

"Do you think I'll be as stupid as Yuan Highway?" Cao Shuo smiled and said, "It's just a jade seal, if I get it, I will definitely present it to His Majesty." ”

"But......" Ji Ling was stunned for a moment, and said to Cao Shuo: "Childe killed the red snake, and it was the number of days ......"

"What is the number of days?" Cao Shuo said with a smile: "Victory is the number of days, defeat is a traitor, just listen to those rumors, don't take it too seriously." ”
