The banquet ended hastily with Cao Cao leaving the table full of anger - and soon, Cao Cao's two orders spread rapidly.
Order Xiahoudun to retreat to Xinye--Wait for the next step--Order the Wei army stationed on the side of Wancheng, and the whole army is ready to open Fancheng at any time-
Fancheng!
Wei Yan, who was standing at the head of the city, stared at the Wei army camp in the distance. There is madness in the eyes of the tiger. Wei Yan relied on more than 10,000 elite soldiers and the solidity of Fancheng to resist the Wei army to which Xiahoudun belonged for more than twenty days-
In between twenty days, how many battles took place? This-Wei Yan can't remember clearly.
Among them, Fan Cheng has almost changed hands many times, but through the tragic battle of Wei Yan and the most elite 800 athletes under his command - Fan Cheng is still firmly grasped by himself -
In the past twenty days, Wei Yan did not dare to delay for a moment, and he could rest for no more than an hour every day.
Wei Yan's tiger eyes were bloodshot, and there was a tiredness between his eyebrows that could not be concealed, but his eyes were still extremely bright—suddenly, Wei Yan found that the Wei army in the distance was pulling out the camp and retreating, looking at it—it seemed to be in the direction of Xinye.
"Huh? Then how could Xiahoudun withdraw for no reason-"
Wei Yan was puzzled. However, after less than a stick of incense, a letter from Liu Xuan made Wei Yan suddenly realize.
Half an hour later.
Wei Yan stood at the gate of Fancheng City with some personal guards, waiting for Liu Xuan's arrival—a moment later, Wei Yan saw Liu Xuan riding on a white horse with a bright white luster and no trace of miscellaneous hair!
Liu Xuan rode his horse first, and then a large number of civil and military ministers followed suit-Zhang Fei and Wu Yan's two masters and apprentices were even more like facing the enemy, and they raised the spirit of twelve-
When Wei Yan noticed Liu Xuan, Liu Xuan also noticed Wei Yan!
A smile appeared on Liu Xuan's face, and Lu Ma under his crotch also walked forward slightly—a moment later, Liu Xuan stopped at the city gate and kicked off his horse.
"Wen Chang - good, Lone really didn't see the wrong person-"
Liu Xuan's tone was gentle, and his eyes were quite relieved. "The last general, Wei Yan, meet the king - the king is serious, if there is no king's appreciation, there will be no Wei Yan today." Wei Yan didn't care about anything, he was so busy that he said. "Bun Chang, let's go-"
Liu Xuan also chuckled when he heard this, so he even dragged Wei Yan to the city.
Along the way, Liu Xuan stopped at the county office. As far as the eye can see, the city is devastated. Five or six out of ten houses in Fancheng were demolished and used as materials for defending the city-although Fancheng was defended, it was the people who suffered -
"Someone came - pass on the order of Gu, and the people of Fancheng will be compensated twice as much for the property lost in this battle-"
Liu Xuan sighed slightly, and then ordered. "Whew-"
######
On the third day of Liu Xuan's arrival in Fancheng, Cao Cao also led tens of thousands of troops to Xinye.
On this day, at noon. Cao Cao led the Tiger Guards on his side and went straight to Xinye County.
County hall.
This time, the southbound coach Xiahoudun was shouting angrily in the hall, scolding King Wei for having traitors and villains on his side, resulting in a missed opportunity.
"Hmph—are you saying that lonely people are useless?"
A cold drink sounded suddenly, stopping Xiahoudun's words vividly. Xiahoudun was also stunned, and then heard who this voice came from. Xiahoudun hurriedly got up and came down, looking out of the hall with trepidation on his face.
Sure enough, a figure was standing outside, and those eyes were looking at Xiahoudun coldly.
"Xiahoudun-so bold, you-dare to talk about loneliness behind your back?"
Cao Cao snorted and strode in, and went straight to the throne when he fired at Xiahou and said. "King Wei is angry - the last general, isn't the last general confused."
"If King Wei is still angry, then ...... Then hang the last general and beat him—"
Xiahoudun was also frightened by Cao Cao's momentum at this time, and he didn't dare to speak lightly for a while.
"Haha-"
Looking at Xiahoudun's helpless and aggrieved, even more depressed appearance, the sullenness in Cao Cao's heart finally disappeared with the wind.
"Yuan Rang, are you really old and confused?" Cao Cao shook his head as he spoke, and sighed helplessly. "Lone made you retreat—and there's a reason—"
Xiahou frowned, "I don't know what the reason for King Wei?" Xiahou Dun's question was very direct, and he didn't dare to ask so bluntly if he wanted to put it in general, such as Cao Ren, Cao Chun, Cao Hong, and other children of the Cao family from the Cao clan.
And yet - he is Xiahoudun!
Cao Cao smiled, smiled heartily! How long has it been? How long has it been since anyone has spoken to him like this, Cao Cao asked himself with emotion.
"Liu Xuan'er has sent troops—" Cao Cao said softly. "Liu Xuan's little child sent a letter, threatening Lone, Zixiao, Zihe, and Zidan are all by his side - Lonely, there is no way."
"If Lone doesn't regress, Zixiao, Zihe, Zidan, and even Wen Lie will be in danger—so, Lone, you have to be like this—"
Cao Cao said helplessly. Xiahoudun, who had always been strong, also fell silent when he heard this.
"King Wei, I-"
Looking at Xiahoudun like a little girl who had done something wrong, Cao Cao said angrily. "Alright—just don't be so grumpy next time." Cao Cao said again. "A lone hand, wait for someone to pass it on to Liu Xuan's child—just say that after three days of solitude, I will meet him on the plain——"
Soon, after Cao Cao danced on the Xuan paper, he handed it over to a small official and let him go to Fancheng. A few hours later, Cao Cao's letter appeared on Liu Xuan's desk.
Liu Xuan smiled and opened Cao Cao's handwriting and read it carefully, the corners of Liu Xuan's mouth raised, and the smile on his face became even stronger. Liu Xuan looked up at the little official who was frightened by Wu Yan and trembled.
"You go back and tell your king—Liu Xuan, wait for him at any time as the king of Wei—but, remember, don't play any tricks, his brothers and nephews are all in the hands of this king—"
After waiting for the little official to retreat, the civil and military forces in the hall were curious to ask Cao Cao what was written on the letter! Liu Xuan didn't hide it, so he handed Cao Cao's handwritten letter down and let his subordinates visit Wenwu.
After a lap, Liu Xuan's subordinates also laughed silently. Zhou Budo chuckled even more. "It seems that Cao Cao is really angry!"
"It's not—if I were Cao Cao, I would be angry!"
“……”
Liu Xuan smiled, and his gaze fell on the letter again.
"Liu Xuan'er—three days later, I'll talk to you in the plain of thirty miles east of Fancheng—"
Soon, three days passed in the blink of an eye—early in the morning. Liu Xuan's three hundred blood guards under the command of Liu Wu, Wu Fei, Xu Peng, and Zhou Can, as well as Wu Yan and Zhang Fei, slowly advanced towards the place agreed with Cao Cao.
And thirty miles away in a plain land, at this time there is already a team of soldiers and horses here, a huge flag standing in the wind, a huge 'Cao' character attracts people's attention!
Three meters away from the flag, Cao Cao was sitting on a blanket, and there was a table in front of him, on which were placed delicacies and wine—but Cao Cao was not in the mood at this time.
Because—more than an hour had passed since the appointed time—just when Cao Cao's anger was on the verge of that, Xu Chu suddenly came and said in Cao Cao's ear.
"The king-Liu Xuan'er is here-"
"Huh?"
Cao Cao hurriedly stared at it, and sure enough, a big flag not far away was also fluttering in the wind, and the word 'Liu' on it flew like a dragon's scales and claws-
Soon, Cao Cao saw the figure of Liu Xuan in the lead.
With sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a handsome face, an eight-foot body, and a youthful vitality on his body, Cao Cao looked at himself, but it was not as good as a year - there was a feeling of heroic twilight.
For a while, Cao Cao suddenly became worried - among his own heirs, Cao Ang had the most true inheritance, but he died early - the second son Cao Piwen was not as good as Zijian, and Wu was not as good as Ziwen.
This-who among his own heirs can resist Liu Xuan?
