Cao Hong patted his head and said: "Damn, Lao Tzu will not die if he loses Wancheng, if he loses Xu Du, the prime minister will definitely scrape Lao Tzu alive, no matter what, give the order, gather the team, and send Xu Du to the army!" ”

Cao Hong gave an order, and more than 4,000 soldiers and horses in Wancheng were assembled, left Wancheng, and went straight to Xudu, and at the same time ordered people to ask Cao Cao for help. As for Wancheng, Cao Hong handed it over to the county guards and county guards of Wancheng.

Cao Hong led the army along the official road all the way east, day and night.

In the evening of the next day, the sky was about to get dark, and the front probed the Malay newspaper, saying that the Shu army had not attacked for a long time, and the offensive was weakened. Unconsciously slowed down the speed of the march, looked up, it was late, saw that the soldiers had been marching for days, and they were also tired, so they ordered the army to camp on the spot, rest for one night, and prepare to march to Xudu tomorrow and fight a decisive battle with the Shu army.

The soldiers marched for many days, and they couldn't stand it for a long time, and when they heard that they were going to camp and rest for one night, they all jumped with joy, and hurriedly took out the tents of the troops, set up according to the camp, and cooked on the stove, and after the three armies were full, the night was already deep, and after arranging the night patrol and sentry work, Cao Hong first fell asleep in the big tent, Cao Hong and Cao Cao were the same age, and they were also in their fifties this year, and their bodies were no longer suitable for this kind of high-intensity march, although this goods were still riding.

In the middle of the night, Cao Hong got up at night, couldn't sleep, ordered his subordinates to fetch cheese, eat supper, and while eating this, he corrected the military reports accumulated for many days, which was not comfortable.

After eating half of it, Cao Hong felt thirsty again, so he called the soldiers to fetch him water, and before the words fell, he suddenly heard a loud noise in the camp, and then heard the noise of people and horses outside the tent, and became chaotic.

"What's going on?" Cao Hong was shocked, and rushed out of the big tent in three steps and two steps, but saw that the Cao camp was already a sea of fire at this time, and all the big tents were lit with raging fires.

Could it be that it is going to water? This thought flashed through Cao Hong's mind, and then it was denied, because, fuck, Shu Jun! Cao Hong saw a biao wearing a Shu army uniform of men and horses rushed into the Cao camp from the Yuanmen, as the head of the leopard with eyes ringed, swallow forehead tiger whiskers, a spear in the hand of the tiger and the tiger, taking advantage of the chaos of the Cao camp, rampage in the camp, all the way to slash, where they passed, the soldiers of the Cao army all hugged their heads and scurried, and those who ran slowly became ghosts under the knife.

Cao Hong looked at it and scolded secretly, "Zhang Feipifu, dare to bully me!" As he spoke, he turned around and returned to the big tent, took the weapon and was about to go to Zhang Fei to fight hard, but he was hugged by the soldier and persuaded: "General, the Shu army is big tonight, and our army is in turmoil, so we can't be rash!" It's better to retreat first, wait for Tianming to reorganize the army, join forces with General Xiahou, and then fight a decisive battle with the Shu army! ”

When Cao Hong heard this, he sighed deeply, hurriedly got on his horse, and rushed to the siege with a few subordinates.

Running wildly all night, waiting for the dawn, there were less than 100 soldiers around him, looking at the soldiers behind him, Cao Hong burst into tears. Cao Hong set up camp in the northwest of Wancheng for more than 100 miles, collected the remnants, gathered more than 2,000 soldiers and horses, and planned to enter Xudu and Xiahou Shang to join forces to defend it, but suddenly got a report that the Shu army outside Xudu had retreated, and its whereabouts were unknown.

Cao Hong thought that since the Shu army had retreated, there was no danger in thinking about it, and thinking that Wancheng was empty, he didn't have time to greet Xiahou Shang, so he led the remnants to Wancheng.

At this time, outside the city of Wancheng, a group of people suddenly appeared, looking at the momentum, there were about 5,000. Wancheng was too guarded on the top of the city, looking down, and saw that this army was dressed as Cao Jun, thinking that it should be reinforcements.

After a while, the soldiers and horses arrived at the city, the first general, with a burly figure, bright armor, and a long sword at the waist in the exquisite abnormality, at a glance, it was known that this person must be the son of a wealthy family in the Central Plains. The general raised his head and said loudly: "A certain is a partial general under General Cao Ren, I heard that Wancheng was in trouble, and I was ordered to save it, and I didn't open the door quickly!" ”

When the county guard heard this, he was overjoyed, and he was about to open the door as he spoke, but a lieutenant next to him grabbed the county guard and handed over his hand to report: "My lord, General Cao Hong is going east, the city is empty, this army has a large number of soldiers and horses, and the origin is unknown. ”

The county guard thought about it, and it made sense, so he stretched out his head again and shouted: "General, according to the regulations, I must first check the general's identity documents!" ”

When the generals under the city heard this, their brows furrowed, so they reached out and took out the identity document from their arms, put it in the basket put down on the city, the hanging basket slowly rose, and when they arrived at the head of the city, the soldiers in the city took out the identity document from the hanging basket and handed it to the county guard, the county guard looked at it, nodded with a smile, and said: "That's right, it's true, open the city gate!" ”

The county guard opened the city gate with a cadre of civil and military personnel, and said with a smile: "Wancheng County Guard Song Zhong and Wancheng civil and military welcome the arrival of the general!" ”

Outside the city, the general sat on his horse, without the slightest intention of preparing to dismount, stared at Song Zhong with his eyes, and said with a smile: "You are Song Zhong, the military counselor under Cai Mao, the governor of Jingzhou Ten years ago!" ”

When Song Zhong heard this, he was overjoyed, and raised his head and asked, "Could it be that the general is an old man from Jingzhou?" ”

When the general heard this, he laughed and said, "But it's an old man!" Ten years ago, I was a marching Sima in Xinye! I have a relationship with the county guard! ”

"Shinno? You are? "Song Zhong was shocked when he heard this, Xinye? Isn't it Liu Bei's territory?

Song Zhong was puzzled, but he didn't want the general to suddenly pull out the long sword from his waist and stab it into Song Zhong's chest, and then pulled it out, blood gushed out, and the civil and military forces in the city were all discolored.

Song Zhong ended up, holding the middle sword with one hand, pointing at the partial general with the other, and asked tremblingly, "Why?" ”

But seeing that the partial general smiled slightly, he said slowly: "Because my name is Liu Feng!" Then he waved his sword and shouted, "Rush with me!" Immediately jumped on the horse, taking the lead, and the soldiers behind him followed Liu Feng to rush in.

Wancheng civil and military forces have not yet reacted from this sudden change, they have become the prisoners of the Shu army, Wancheng defenders are already few, and they are all undertrained county soldiers, where can they resist the attack of the Shu army, in less than an hour, the entire Wancheng fell.

Standing at the head of Wancheng City, Zhang Fei patted Young Master Zhuge on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "You kid still has a way!" ”

Young Master Zhuge smiled slightly and said, "I really want to know now, what kind of expression Prime Minister Cao Cheng would have if he knew about the fall of Wancheng?" ”

When Liu Feng heard this, he smiled and said, "I guess I can jump up angrily!" ”

When Meng Da heard this, he shook his head and said, "I don't dare to say whether Cao Cao jumps up or not, but he will definitely send troops north to recapture Wancheng, for Cao Cao, Wancheng cannot be lost!" ”

When Young Master Zhuge heard this, he said with a smile: "Isn't this exactly what we want?" ”
