Chapter 691: A Glimmer of Life
Knowing that Xin Bi fell off his horse and fainted, Cao Cao led everyone to visit.
The healer gave him an injection, and Simbi woke up.
Holding his hands, Cao Cao choked up and said: "George suffered today, but he didn't investigate that day, thinking that his relatives were all judged and harmed......"
Lying on the cover, Xin Bi said with a pale face: "Cao Gong doesn't have to be like this, there is a certain invitation, and I hope that Cao Gong will approve it!" ”
"George, please!"
"I implore Gong Cao, Yun Mou's army to break through the ...... of Yecheng"
Cao Cao glanced back at Guo Jia and the others.
Guo Jia nodded, and Cao Cao said to Xin Bi: "George is vengeful, and it is clear. I hope to stay in peace for two days, and it is not too late to lead the army to break the city when I am healthy! ”
With Cao Cao's permission, Xin Bi struggled to sit up: "Don't worry, Gong Cao, a certain person will be judged and matched!" ”
Xin Bi wanted to get up, but Cao Cao held him down: "George doesn't need to be anxious, the army has recently attacked the city first, and you will rest in peace." Stay until your body is safe, and then help someone break the city! ”
Angry and angry, he spurted blood, and Xin Bi didn't have the slightest strength in his body.
Knowing that even if he forcibly got up, it would be impossible to lead a large army to attack the city, so Xin Bi had no choice but to say to Cao Cao: "Thank you Cao Gong for success!" ”
After appeasing Xin Bi a few more words, Cao Cao left with everyone.
Leaving the tent of Xinbi, Cao Cao asked everyone: "We are waiting to attack Yecheng, and we have a degree of defense of the city, and it is difficult to break it for a while, what do the armies think?" ”
Looking up at the sky, Guo Jia said: "Seeing that the snow is about to fall, the soldiers are tired from attacking the city for days, and they must also rest." ”
"In the field of the garrison, once the snow falls, the soldiers are miserable, and they have to think of a way." Cao Cao said: "Baigou has been opened, and there is no shortage of grain and grass, but the snow and rain are muddy, and the winter is difficult!" ”
"Cao Gong doesn't need to worry." Guo Jia said: "You can ask the sergeant to dig a ditch outside the camp, and dig a small ditch in the camp, if the snow falls, wait until the snow melts and the water flows into the ditch, and the camp is not very muddy!" ”
"According to Fengxiao!" Cao Cao responded.
Cao's troops arrived in Yecheng, and Yuan Shang was still besieging the plain.
Yuan Shang camp outside the plain city.
Looking at the plain with his hands on his waist, Yuan Shang's face was solemn: "Cao Cao led the army to attack Yecheng, although the trial was stubborn, it would be difficult to protect the city after a few months. If a certain leader leads the army to help, the eldest brother will definitely follow, and we are already in a dead place! ”
"Childe doesn't need to worry." Cui Yan, who was standing behind him, said: "Although the Cao army is besieging Yecheng, it is difficult to break it for a while. Our army only needs to break through the plain in three months, and Yecheng will definitely be lost! ”
"It's easier said than done to break through the plains!" Yuan Shang smiled bitterly.
Cui Yan asked: "Dare to ask the son, if you break the plain, how will you treat the eldest son?" ”
"The eldest brother has been fighting for power with a certain person for many years, if he exists in the world, how can a certain person live in peace?" Yuan Shang said: "In the past two years, a certain has never been an enemy of him, but the eldest brother has repeatedly made difficulties, and Cui Gong should have seen it with his own eyes!" ”
Cui Yan didn't say anything.
Since Yuan Xu left Yecheng, the situation has gotten out of control.
Yuan Tan, instigated by Guo Tu and others, repeatedly used troops against Yuan Shang.
The two brothers fought with each other, but it gave Cao Cao an opportunity to take advantage of!
After a moment of silence, Cui Yan said: "If the eldest prince is willing to hand over the military power and show up the plain, can the prince allow him?" ”
Yuan Shang hesitated for a while, and said to Cui Yan: "If the eldest brother is really like this, he will not die!" ”
"I am willing to go to the plains and persuade the eldest son!" Cui Yan surrendered his hand and asked for his life! “
Looking at him in amazement, Yuan Shang said: "How dangerous it is for Gong Cui to go, how can he be like this?" ”
"Cao Cao's soldiers arrived in Yecheng, and if Gongzi does not return to Hebei, he will change his surname!" Cui Yan said: "On a certain day, I went to Xuzhou on the order of Yuan Gong to persuade the fifth prince. With the temperament of the fifth son, it is still a certain persuasion, how is the eldest son better than the fifth son? ”
Speaking of Yuan Xu, Yuan Shang's face was very ugly.
He had received a military report, and Yuan Xu led the army into Runan, first defeated for a while, and then made a comprehensive comeback.
Cao's army stationed in Runan stopped nine out of ten, and it was only a matter of time to capture Runan!
Compared with Yuan Xu, he and Yuan Tan fought with each other, and actually gave Cao Cao the opportunity to enter Hebei!
No wonder before Yuan Shao passed away, he thought about handing over Hebei to Yuan Xu.
"If a certain person did not worship Hebei that day, but handed it over to Xianxin, it may not be today!" Yuan Shang sighed: "Although the Yuan family was repeatedly defeated by Cao Cao in the past, it has reversed the situation to ensure that the Yuan family does not lose!" Now Xianxin has left the Yuan family, and although he has the name of a brother, he has no brotherly feelings. Hebei will be broken, who is willing to protect the Yuan family? ”
After Yuan Xu left Hebei, he never returned to Yecheng.
Cui Yan also knew that even if he went to Xuzhou again, Yuan Xu, who was fighting with Cao's army, would not be able to divide troops for the Yuan family.
The Yuan family in Hebei has reached a critical juncture of life and death!
Although he knew that there was not much possibility, Cui Yan still said to Yuan Shang: "If the fifth prince is willing to turn the tide, Hebei will definitely not lose!" A certain went to the plains today to persuade the eldest son to abandon his enemies with the son! ”
"If you send someone to Xuzhou, you will do it." Sending someone to Yuan Xu for help, Yuan Shang really couldn't save face, but when it came to the survival of Hebei and his life and death, he couldn't care a lot: "Cui Gong went to persuade the eldest brother, he acted dangerously, and he hoped to act cautiously!" ”
"Don't worry, Childe!" Cui Yan arched his hand at him, and then instructed the guard: "Spread the news to the eldest son, a certain general asks to see!" ”
After a while, a fast horse carrying a white silk galloped towards the plain.
When he arrived at the foot of Pingyuan City, Yuan Jun on horseback shouted: "Duke Cui asks to see the eldest son, and I hope that the eldest son will allow it!" ”
When the defenders at the head of the city heard that someone had asked to see Yuan Tan, they immediately ran into the city to report it.
Of course, Yuan Tan knew who came to see him.
Pinching his chin, he frowned and pondered, and asked Xin Ping and Guo Tu, "Cui Yan asks to see, what do you two think?" ”
"Cui Yan followed the third prince and made the enemy of the son, and he came to ask for nothing more than to persuade him to surrender!" Guo Tu said: "What are the plans of the childe? ”
"The big mistake has already been made, even if you abandon the plain, how can Xianfu tolerate a certain person?" Yuan Tan said: "Cui Yan is here, no matter what he says, just send him away." ”
made a decision in his heart, and originally instructed the guards: "Please Cui Gong come here to speak!" ”
After the small half-pillar incense, a gap opened in the plain city gate, and Cui Yan entered the city under the escort of four guards.
A small colonel under Yuan Tan stepped forward and bowed his hand to him: "The eldest son has been waiting for Cui Gong for a long time, and he also asked Cui Gong to go with him to meet him!" ”
"There is labor to lead the way!" did not dismount, Cui Yan arched his hand as a return gift.
The little colonel turned over and got on the horse and led Cui Yan in front.
A team of soldiers walked on both sides, surrounding Cui Yan and others.
After being besieged for a long time, Pingyuan City has been in a depression, whether it is a house or a shop, almost every house is closed, and even half of the pedestrians on the road are difficult to see!
Walking through a few streets, Cui Yan saw the plain government mansion from a distance. (To be continued.) )
