After Huangfu Song was shocked, he reacted, and then said angrily: "Cao Mengde, you actually deceived me? ”

"The old general is calm, now that this eunuch is in power, his relatives are in turmoil, and the imperial treasury has been in deficit for many years, the reason for this must not need me to say more, and the old general also understands"

Huangfu Song's face softened a lot when he heard this, but then he became more gloomy, even with a hint of despair.

"So, does the court want me to die here?"

"Old general, this is the general trend of the world, but Cao believes that our army's grain and grass can support at least three days, these three days are actually enough, the reason why the big husband is called the big husband is because in the face of a desperate situation, he can still believe in himself and create a bright future"

If Zhang Cheng was here, he would definitely be surprised, Cao Cao boiled wine and talked about heroes, saying that the heroes of the world are only kings and orphans, that is, Cao Cao and Liu Bei.

Now it seems that it is true that at the beginning of Guandu, Cao Cao was almost forced into a desperate situation, reinforcing several times the Cao army, and the Cao army was short of food and grass, and it was in danger, but in the end it was able to turn defeat into victory.

Liu Bei's life is not to mention, half a lifetime drifting, when he lived in Jingzhou, faced a million Cao army, he fought to the death, and finally became Emperor Zhaolie.

"It seems that I'm old" Huangfu Song sighed, and then said: "From today on, the three armies will be handed over to you, so you don't have to ask me."

"Thank you to the old general for your love, Cao is bound to break the city within three days" Cao Cao did not hesitate at all, and accepted it calmly.

The two chatted for a long time, and in the blink of an eye, it was already evening.

"General" a personal soldier walked in quietly.

"What's going on?" Huangfu Song asked.

"A secret letter from the western wall"

"Oh? Where do I look?"

The soldiers immediately took out the arrow in their hands, this is an ordinary arrow, tied a small cloth on the side of the arrow, Huangfu Song opened it and saw that there were only four words on it, 'Zhang Jiao is dead.'

Huangfu Song was immediately overjoyed, and then retreated left and right, and handed the secret letter in his hand to Cao Cao.

"Is the information reliable?" Cao Cao said with some solemnity.

"Absolutely reliable," Huang Fusong affirmed.

"The two armies are fighting, there is no infallibility, the old general turned forward and we have lost troops twice because of Zhang Bao's intelligence" Cao Cao's eyes were cloudy, and he had always been suspicious, but now he was even more worried.

Huangfu Song was dumbfounded when he heard this, thinking that this was really the case.

"So what to do?"

"Temptation"

"How do you test the law?" Huangfu Song asked.

"Siege"

“”

Zhang Cheng stood at the head of the city, looking at Cao Jun coldly, a spear in his hand clenched, staring closely at the officials and soldiers under the city.

Just now, Zhang Liang has appointed him as the coach of the South Gate, and Chu Yan is now responsible for guarding the East Gate, which was previously controlled by Zhang Bao's subordinates, so that the hidden dangers are eliminated and Chu Yan is co-opted, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

The officers and troops under the city still began to set up their formations as usual, and the Yellow Turban Army was not abnormal at the moment, everything seemed to have never happened, as if Zhang Jiao had not died at all.

The two generals on the opposite side galloped over and circled around the city, their brows furrowed slightly, these two people were really Cao Cao and Huangfu Song.

"Meng De, if it weren't for you this time, the old man would probably be tricked by Zhang Bao's villain again" Huangfu Song was a little happy to see that everything was as usual in the yellow scarf.

"Really?" Cao Cao didn't seem to find an answer, and then looked at Zhang Cheng at the head of the city: "That's Zhang Cheng?" ”

"Not bad"

"Let's go, I'll meet him for a while" Cao manipulated his horse to the city, just a stone's throw away, outside the range of the Yellow Turban Army.

"It's Zhang Chengqu who is in the city?" Cao Cao asked.

Zhang Cheng looked at the ordinary face, five short figures, and probably guessed that the person who came was Cao Cao, and immediately smiled: "The person who came must be Cao Mengde, the captain of the Xiao Cavalry, right?" ”

"It's Cao," Cao Cao said with a smile.

"I don't know what General Cao has to do?" Zhang Cheng said with a smile.

This Cao Cao is now in his thirties, in the prime of life, and full of energy.

"I heard that Zhang Jiao is dead, and I have come to persuade you to surrender to the court as soon as possible, so as not to make a mistake"

As soon as Cao Cao said this, many Yellow Turban soldiers in the city suddenly changed their faces, but no one spoke up.

"General Cao said with a smile, General Tiangong is only over the age of confusion now, and his body is very strong, if you want to shake the morale of our army, you can find another reason, why choose this reason that can't be scrutinized?" Zhang Cheng said this, but he was a little nervous in his heart.

"Oh?" Cao Cao frowned when he heard this, and then said, "So, is Cao wrong?" I wonder if I can let General Tiangong come out and see it? ”

Many Yellow Turban soldiers in the city suddenly began to talk to each other, and indeed Zhang Jiao had not come to inspect the city defense for several days, which made many scholars feel uneasy.

"General Tiangong is in poor health, it is inconvenient to see each other, and besides, our General Tiangong is the lord of the Yellow Heaven, unless it is the emperor of the Han Dynasty, otherwise, who is qualified to see him?" Zhang Cheng said with a smile.

When the yellow scarves at the head of the city heard this, many people immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"In this way, Cao Mou has taken his leave, and he will see you on the battlefield in the future" Cao Cao seemed unwilling to say more, and rode away.

Zhang Cheng stared at Cao Cao's back, his fists clenched, and he didn't dare to be careless in the face of this legendary traitor.

After Cao Cao returned, Huangfu Song was ready to start withdrawing his troops.

"Why did the old general withdraw his troops?" Cao Cao said strangely.

"Zhang Jiao is not dead, he is just here to test today, and he is not ready to attack the city, why will he wait if he does not retreat at this moment?" Huangfu Song said a little strangely.

"Zhang Jiao is dead," Cao Cao said coldly.

"How so?" Huangfu Song said a little strangely.

"Didn't the old general see it? This horn has not appeared for a long time, and now this yellow scarf is at the end of his rope, and he, as the leader of the thief, is nowhere to be found, doesn't the old general think it is strange? And just now, when I tried to say that Zhang Jiao was dead, many Yellow Turban soldiers had a look on their faces, which means that these Yellow Turban soldiers thought the same as us, so it seems that Zhang Jiao must be dead."

When Huangfu Song heard this, he felt that what Cao Cao said was very reasonable, and then said, "Then what should we do now?" ”

"As long as Zhang Jiao is dead, these Yellow Turban thieves can't make big waves, and they can't hide Zhang Jiao's death, for today's plan, we can only wait for a day."

"Wait a day?" Huangfu Song's face was ugly and said: "Meng De, don't forget, our army only has two days of food and grass now."

"Even if I run out of food tonight, I will wait until tonight, let alone one day," Cao Cao said very calmly.

When Huangfu Song heard this, he could only nod helplessly.
