Sitting on the big stone, Cao Shuo looked at the city wall of Suixian County, and said to Cai Ji: "Don't let the soldiers move the stones, find some people, and then prepare the cart loaded with grain and grass, we have to go and pull the things." ”

"What about the grain and grass?" Cai Ji said: "If the car is unloaded, you can only find a place to pile it up. ”

"Tell General Xiahou that after entering the city, let him send someone to receive grain and grass, but the car can't be given to him, I'll be useful!" Cao Shuo commanded.

"I'll do it!" Cai Ji retreated.

Cao Shuo has already begun to prepare to reap the benefits from Zhang Xiu.

Jia Xu returned to Sui County, went up to the city wall, and saluted Zhang Xiu with a smile.

"It's finished?" Seeing Jia Xu with a smile on his face, Zhang Xiu asked.

"It's done!" Jia Xu said: "But Cao Zirong's appetite is big. ”

"What does he want?"

"In addition to the general's soldiers, he also wants all your wealth." Jia Xu said: "It's not from Wancheng's family, but the general has accumulated it for many years." ”

"Give it all to him." Zhang Xiu said: "As long as you can save your life, wealth is a trivial matter. ”

"Since the general said so, you can send someone out of the city and ask Cao Zirong to lead the troops into the city." Jia Xu responded.

"What should I do if Cao Zirong just tricked me into opening the city?" Zhang Xiu was still a little hesitant.

"The general looks out of the city!" Jia Xu pointed to the catapult in the distance and said to Zhang Xiu: "Cao Zirong still plans to build another thirty or fifty units, with those, how long can the county be defended?" ”

Zhang Xiu gasped.

At present, Cao Jun has a catapult, and if he throws boulders for three or five days in a row, the city wall of Yuxian County will be smashed out of a hole.

If Cao Shuo really rebuilt so much, by the time Cao Jun entered the city, the soldiers defending the city would probably have been smashed into pulp.

"Someone!" Zhang Xiu didn't think much about it anymore, and ordered to the side: "Go out of the city and ask Zirong Gongzi to take over the county!" ”

Jia Xu went out of the city for the first time early in the morning, and when he arrived at the west mountain at sunset, Cao Shuo got the news that Zhang Xiu asked him to take over the county.

The sunset is still shining, and the city wall of Yuxian County, which still has blood stains left after many days of attacking, is plated with a thin layer of golden glow by the sun.

Cao Shuo led the immortal battalion to the forefront.

Deng Zhan and Zhu Ao protected him on both sides.

Sima Yi and the others led the army and followed closely behind the immortal camp.

Xiahou Yuan's subordinates did not enter the city immediately, they just watched from afar, waiting for Cao Shuo to completely take over the county before they entered the city.

Cao Shuo entered the city, and Zhang Xiu took Jia Xu and a group of officials to wait on the main road facing the city gate.

Seeing Cao Shuo, Zhang Xiu bowed and saluted: "Zhang Xiu has seen the second son." ”

"The general doesn't have to be like this." Cao Shuo responded lightly, and then said to Deng Zhan on the side: "Order, take over the defense." ”

Deng Zhan responded, turned his horse and shouted: "Gongzi has an order, take over the defense!" ”

Sima Yi had already prepared when he heard the shout and shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Take over the defense immediately!" ”

Thousands of Cao troops ran up the city wall, and hundreds of Cao soldiers ran to Zhang Xiujun near the city gate.

"Put down your weapons!" The soldiers of the Cao army shouted to Zhang Xiujun.

With the sound of weapons falling to the ground, Zhang Xiujun surrendered his blades.

Before the Battle of Wancheng, Zhang Xiu also served Cao Cao.

At that time, Cao Cao was not like Cao Shuo, as soon as he entered the city, he confiscated the weapons of his soldiers.

Zhang Xiu lowered his head, and Cen Cen cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Jia Xu was a lot more relieved.

Cao Shuo confiscated Zhang Xiujun's weapons, which meant that he was not at ease with Zhang Xiu and eliminated possible threats in advance.

If he didn't want Zhang Xiu to live, he didn't have to surrender the weapons of the soldiers at all, and he could just kill Zhang Xiu.

"General Zhang!" Watching the soldiers take over the defense, Cao Shuo smiled at Zhang Xiu and said: "I am in a hurry to take over the defense, just for the sake of the safety of the county, the general does not have to worry." ”

"The county has been handed over to Childe, let Childe dispose of it!" The city is all under Cao Shuo, how dare Zhang Xiu have the slightest objection.

"Zhongda!" Cao Shuo shouted.

Sima Yi rode his horse to his side.

Cao Shuo said: "Send the order, go to the barracks immediately, and collect all the weapons of the soldiers under General Zhang." They have weapons in their hands, and I don't feel at ease. ”

Sima Yi responded, and then arranged for Wei Yan to lead his troops to the military camp.

Although Cao Shuo did not explicitly say that he was not at ease with Zhang Xiu.

How could Zhang Xiu not understand the meaning of his words.

The clothes on his back were soaked with cold sweat, and Zhang Xiu didn't even dare to say a word.

"General Xiahou is still outside the city, I didn't invite him to enter the city now, General Zhang should know what it means." Smiling calmly at Zhang Xiu, Cao Shuo said: "Some words are more appropriate to go to General Zhang's residence to talk." ”

"Childe, please!" The defense of the city has completely fallen into the hands of Cao Shuo, Zhang Xiu has no capital to resist at all, Cao Shuo proposed to go to his residence, Zhang Xiu hurriedly retreated and stood aside.

When Cao's army bombarded the city wall with a catapult, a few boulders flew into the city.

Some houses near the city walls were crushed by boulders.

Walking on the main road on horseback, looking at the houses that had been smashed by boulders on the side of the road, Cao Shuo asked, "How many people have been killed or wounded?" ”

"Hui Gongzi, there are not many casualties among the people." Zhang Xiu replied.

"What does the fighting between the two armies have to do with the people." Cao Shuo said in a compassionate tone: "Disaster fell from heaven, how unjustly they died!" ”

"That's what Childe said!" Zhang Xiu bowed his head to greet him.

"You can't come back to life after you die." Cao Shuo said: "There must still be pacification. ”

Zhang Xiu lowered his head and didn't dare to respond.

Cao Shuo continued: "In my name, every innocent and dead citizen will be appeased by ten hanging money. ”

Looking at Zhang Xiu, he said again: "They died because General Zhang resisted my Cao family's army, and you have to pay for it!" ”

"Don't worry, Childe, I'll let someone do it right away!" Life is in Cao Shuo's hands, how dare Zhang Xiu not, he said to the officials who followed on the side: "What are you still stunned about?" Hurry up and do what Childe wants. ”

"The world is in turmoil, everyone thinks about themselves, and there is no sense of public morality at all!" Zhang Xiu arranged for officials to comfort the families of the dead people, and Cao Shuo said: "If you can be like me, think more about the people, and think more about the lives of the people, where will there be fighting?" ”

Zhang Xiu didn't dare to say anything, but he was muttering in his heart.

If it weren't for the Cao family to fight the county, how could those people die?

For the sake of the people, you will take your own money to comfort you......

took other people's money to buy people's hearts, and could still say these high-sounding words.

I have long heard that the second son of the Cao family is shameless, but I didn't expect that he was shameless to this extent.

"General Zhang, what are you thinking?" Zhang Xiu was muttering in his heart, and Cao Shuo suddenly asked him.

Stunned by the question, Zhang Xiu hurriedly said: "I'm thinking that the county has returned to Gongzi, and in less than two days, the people here must be extremely supportive of Gongzi......"

"That's for sure!" Cao Shuo was not modest, waved his hand and said: "Everyone knows something, so you don't need to say it!" ”
