Cao Jun is getting closer and closer.

Entering the range of the bow and arrows, and waiting for them to advance more than ten steps, Zhao Yi shouted loudly: "Release the arrow!" ”

Countless arrows flew towards Cao Jun.

The advancing Cao Jun held a large shield and ran quickly towards the city wall.

The archers, hiding in the array, spread their bowstrings and cast feathered arrows at the city.

Arrows from both sides flew back and forth, and at every moment someone fell under the rain of arrows.

The Cao army attacked Xiapi, and the Penglai soldiers who had been on standby in various places left the city one after another and marched to Xiapi.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou stepped on their war horses and led 5,000 Tianhai Battalion soldiers out of Xuzhou.

On the city wall, looking at the army going out, Yuan Xu said to Tian Feng: "Cao Cao attacks Xiapi, as long as Anhu defends the city, our army should be able to break Cao." ”

"If this battle is won, Gongzi should be able to lead his troops to attack Yuzhou!" Tian Feng said: "Once Runan is captured, Cao Cao's foundation will be shaken!" ”

"Easier said than done!" Yuan Xu smiled indifferently: "I'm afraid that Xuzhou and I can't guarantee it!" ”

"Why did Childe say that?" Tian Feng asked in amazement.

"Cao Cao attacked Xiapi, could it be that he has no backhand?" Yuan Xu said: "He should be a large army attacking the city, and the elite soldiers will copy the rear." But tonight, we'll find out! ”

"Childe knows, why did he send 5,000 soldiers to help?"

"Liu Bei was in Xuzhou back then, and there were tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under his command, and Cao Cao didn't have many more soldiers and horses than him, so how could he get Xuzhou?"

"How can the stragglers and the rabble compete with the Cao army?" Tian Feng responded.

"Of the 50,000 soldiers of our army, except for the 6,000 men and horses of the Tianhai Battalion, have the rest of the people ever gone into battle to kill the enemy?"

"Childe is going to ......"

"Bet! Gambling that Cao Jun can't break Xuzhou! Yuan Xu said: "Strive to protect Pi and defend Xuzhou!" As long as Cao Cao retreats. Xuzhou is still in our hands, and Hebei can respond to each other! Defeat Cao Cao in the future. It's not impossible! ”

The war in Xuzhou began, and Yuan Xu obviously forgot what he had seen Cao Shuo that day.

Even if he remembers. There will be no change in strategic deployment because of meeting Cao Shuo!

Cao Shuo went to the Xiongnu, and it would be impossible to return to the Central Plains battlefield for a while and a half!

Taking advantage of the absence of people who have the same understanding as him, it is a good time to stabilize Xuzhou!

As for what the future holds, Yuan Xu can't think of it at this time, and he doesn't want to think about it!

In troubled times, Cao Shuo, who was born in the Cao family, said lightly.

The defeat of the Cao family was after the Sima clan seized power.

is older than Cao Pi, and Cao Shuo's chances of seeing that day are extremely slim.

He certainly doesn't have to worry about how to live!

Yuan Xu is different!

The Yuan family has declined, and Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang are just surviving. If he doesn't fight, he will only become a fish on the chopping block of others!

Yan Liang and Wen Chou led the army to leave.

On the evening of the same day, a Cao army of thousands of people quietly approached Xuzhou at night.

The people who led this Cao army were Cao Ren, Xiahou Dun, Yu Ban and others.

Lying dormant in the dark, looking at the Xuzhou city wall that lit up the fire in the distance, Yu Ban whispered: "Although Xuzhou has a lot of soldiers and horses, the situation in the city is unknown, you must be cautious!" ”

"Cao Gong allocated 5,000 elite soldiers to us, if the city cannot be broken. How to substitute for Cao bus? Xiahoudun said: "A certain leader attacked the city at night, and the two generals fought in the back!" ”

"Yuan Rang can't be reckless!" As the main general, Cao Ren was much calmer than Xiahoudun: "What Wen Ze said is not bad, you must be cautious if you don't know the enemy's situation!" ”

"By the general. What should I do? Xiahoudun asked.

"Once attacked, the enemy was on guard." Cao Ren said: "Stay until dawn, take advantage of the dark night. It's not too late for me to break through the city again. ”

"At that time, it was difficult to take care of the beginning, how to break the city?" The time before dawn. It can be said that he couldn't see his five fingers, and chose to attack the city at that time. Xiahoudun was a little uneasy.

"Our army is difficult to take care of, how good can the enemy army be?" Cao Ren said: "Yuan Rang rest assured, the city will be broken tonight!" ”

Yan Liang and Wen Chou led the army to leave, and Yuan Xu was not tired at all.

Standing on the city wall, looking out at the vast expanse outside the city, he was speechless for a long time.

"Childe!" Ma Fei came behind him: "It's already night, let's go back to the city to rest!" ”

"Tonight is going to be a sleepless night." Yuan Xu said: "At this time, there is no movement, and in the second half of the night, there may be Cao Jun coming to attack the city." ”

"It's very quiet outside the city, how can there be Cao Jun?" Ma Fei said with a smile: "Cao Cao's army is all in Xiapi......"

"Xiapi is just a feint!" Yuan Xu said: "His real purpose should be here!" ”

Yuan Xu's statement was really incomprehensible to Ma Fei.

Cao Jun used almost all his strength to attack Xiapi, such a powerful offensive was just a feint in Yuan Xu's opinion!

The outside of the city at night was vast, and there was no darkness or darkness as far as the eye could see, where was the figure of Cao Jun.

"Lead the night thorns, and the good life will check the vicinity of the city gate." Yuan Xu said: "The big war is coming, and there will inevitably be Cao Jun spies in the city. ”

Ma Fei responded and went down the city wall.

Walking through the dark streets with a few night thorns, his gaze sometimes sweeping to the sides.

Cao Jun entered Xuzhou, although he had never come to the city, the people in the city were in danger.

Xuzhou has endured too many wars in recent years.

First Lu Bu and Liu Bei competed, and finally Cao Cao defeated Lu Bu, and then Liu Bei returned, and Cao Cao broke again.

The people were both tired and afraid of war.

Houses are closed, lights are out, and there is an eerie silence in the city.

Suddenly, Ma Fei stopped.

Looking around, he gestured for the Nightthorns to spread out and take advantage of the terrain.

Several of the Night Thorns understood, and they scattered on the hilts of their swords, quickly occupying various exits in the streets.

On the roof not far from Ma Fei, the tassel pouted.

Sitting here for a long time, there are many soldiers of the Tianhai Battalion passing by, and no one has discovered her existence.

Ma Fei, just passing by the road, found her whereabouts!

Grimacing at Ma Fei, who was looking at her, Tassel got up and jumped to the other roof.

"Catch her!" Ma Fei shouted and rushed out first.

It was only then that several Night Thorns realized that they were standing in the wrong position.

They were only guarding the intersection, and the people on the roof did not jump onto the road, but jumped around on the roof like birds.

Jumping over several houses in a row, the tassel stopped.

Looking around, but seeing no one catch up, she pouted and jumped onto the road.

The female Lu, who was about to turn around the alley and return to the accommodation, was twisted before her feet touched the ground.

"Run! Look where you're going! Twisting the tassel, Ma Fei shouted: "Say! But Cao Jun's spies! ”

"It hurts me!" With a twist of his arm, he broke free at an angle that Ma Fei didn't expect, and his tassel frowned: "You uncle, why are you indiscriminate?" Have you ever seen Cao Jun have such a good-looking spy as me? ”

The tassel broke free, and Ma Fei was also stunned.

Standing in front of him was not a man, but a petite and lovely girl. (To be continued.) )
