Fancheng.
At this moment, whether it is Xiahoudun, Cao Hong, Man Chong, or Wei Yan, Xiang Chong, Bai Yu, etc...... are all on fire at this moment.
Kill......
The officers and soldiers of the two armies are all shouting and killing the enemy, and the swords and swords are coming and going, so it is not lively.
The beacon smoke was filled, the flames of war were everywhere, and the eyes were swept away by countless stumps and broken remains...... And the blood that can't be erased on the city.
"Boss...... The brothers at the South Gate were about to lose their time. ”
One of the eight hundred warriors who followed Wei Yan ran over and whispered.
"Can't hold it? People are favored, and the white feathers can withstand it...... You can't stand it...... Hehe, that's amazing. ”
Wei Yan said coldly, "Go, if you can't keep it, you have to keep it for Lao Tzu." ”
"Besides, it's dusk at this time, and after holding out for more than half an hour, Xiahoudun will have to retreat."
"Yes."
The warrior gritted his teeth and retreated. Wei Yan also stared at the black shadow outside the city-Xiahoudun.
"Xiahoudun, Xiahoudun, you are ruthless enough...... But ......," Wei Yan said, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, "so it's enjoyable...... Trample on your corpse to make Lao Tzu famous. ”
Compared to Wei Yan's relaxed look...... Xiahoudun under the city was extremely angry and heavy.
After besieging the city for nearly two days, Cao's army under his command attacked Fancheng like a raging storm for a day and a night...... But Fancheng, under the command of Wei Yan, Xiang Chong, Bai Yu and other generals, saw the general breaking through the city several times, but it was destroyed by Wei Yan at the juncture......
"Damn ......"
Seeing that another wave of attacks was blocked, Xiahoudun couldn't help but scold. One-eyed and red stared at Wei Yan at the head of the city, but seeing that it was getting late, and his soldiers were tired from attacking the city for a long time, he couldn't help but roar unwillingly, "Someone is coming...... Mingjin withdraws his troops. ”
"Knock knock—"
The sound of gold resounding like a tide resounded.
The soldiers of the Cao army, who were desperately attacking the city in front, suddenly rejoiced when they heard this...... Busy is to spread his feet and retreat......
In the Cao army camp fifteen miles from Fancheng.
Xiahoudun's military tent.
At this time, Xiahou Dun, Cao Hong, Man Chong, Zhang Yun, and Kuai Yue were gathering together to discuss a good strategy for breaking the city.
"Damn...... What kind of person is this Wei Yan-he is so capable. ”
Xiahoudun said hatefully, Cao Hong was speechless when he heard this, but he sighed, "This Wei Yan is indeed powerful, brave and strategic, and he should be a great general—it seems that we will have one more strong enemy in the future——"
Xiahoudun, Cao Hong was also silent when he heard this.
"Zilian, how have our army suffered casualties in the past two days."
Cao Hong heard Xiahoudun talk about this, his face was also dark, and he said in a heavy tone, "Our army has a total of 20,000 people...... In the siege of the city in the past two days, our army suffered no less than 5,000 casualties. ”
"Hiss......"
Xiahoudun secretly took a cool breath. 5,000 soldiers killed...... Damn it. Xiahoudun roared angrily, "Then Wei Yan is nothing more than taking advantage of the thick walls of Fancheng City to be so arrogant...... His grandmother's. ”
As soon as Xiahoudun's words came out, Cao Hong and Man Chong on the side suddenly sat on the wax. You know, Fan Cheng was lost in the hands of the two of them.
"Ahem...... General Yuan Rang, pet has a plan or can break Fancheng. ”
Full of pets lowered his head and groaned, his eyes suddenly lit up, and the corners of his mouth raised a strange smile, Xiahoudun suddenly looked shocked when he heard it, "Oh." What is Berning's plan? ”
"Water—"
Full pet said softly. "Water?" Cao Hong and Xiahoudun looked at each other in confusion.
"It's spring, and the spring rains are continuous...... The Han water will definitely rise sharply - if our army first accumulates the flood and breaks the embankment, hehe - Fancheng will be destroyed by itself. ”
"Huh?"
Xiahoudun, Cao Hong understood the trick of full favor this time. Immediate compliment.
However, Xiahoudun has another layer of thought in his heart, he wants revenge...... Avenge the revenge of his two nephews.
"Someone's coming...... Hurry up to Xiangyang and report to the general, and inform him that it would be of great use to quickly dispatch hundreds of ships to come——"
Xiahoudun couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, and immediately raised his voice.
"Whew-"
One of the guards answered the call, and less than half an hour later, a Cao scout stumbled into the military tent.
Xiahoudun frowned suddenly when he saw it, and shouted dissatisfiedly, "Don't you know the report when you enter the account?" ”
"Yes, yes—the little one went out and did it all over again—"
The Cao Jun scout was also frightened by that information, and immediately said again and again when he heard Xiahou shouting. "Forget it - watch it later."
"I'm going to see you panicked, but there's something big—"
Xiahou said casually without care, but the scout was stunned, and secretly said that General Xiahou deserved to be General Xiahou. Prophet of Prophecy - Now that Xiahoudun knows, this scout's heart is also relieved.
"General--Xiangyang Yuban's urgent information-"
"Huh? So fast. ”
Xiahoudun was stunned, and soon Xiahoudun frowned, looking at the letter in his hand, Xiahoudun felt a trace of something bad in his heart - folded the letter and looked at it, after a long time, Xiahoudun's face suddenly gloomy.
One-eyed, then a solid flame is growing.
"Yu Ban - Yu Wen Ze. Greedy for life and afraid of death—"
Xiahoudun roared angrily, spun around and got up, kicked the case in front of him to the ground with one kick, and shattered it into several halves.
"Uh......" Cao Hong and Man Chong, Zhang Yun, and Kuai Yue were stunned. However, they also knew that it should not be a good thing, so they hurriedly picked up the letter on the ground and stared at it.
After a while, Manzhong's face changed greatly, and he suddenly lost his voice, "Yu Ban has surrendered to the enemy, how can it be——"
"What? Wen Ze defected to the enemy? ”
Cao Hong was also shocked, and immediately grabbed the letter and read it. After a long time, Cao Hong's eyes also flashed a touch of gloom.
"Yu Ban thief is so daring." Xiahoudun's one-eyed murderous aura burst out, "Come on, beat the drum to gather the army, and quickly kill to Xiangyang-"
At this time, Xiahoudun was aggrieved under the previous Fancheng Wei Yan, and at first glance, he heard that he was forbidden to surrender to the enemy...... Anger overshadowed reason. Immediately roared angrily.
"Yuan Rang, you can't-"
Man Chong's face was suddenly shocked when he heard this, and he hurriedly said, "Yuan Rang, whether this is a real surrender or a fake surrender. ”
"None of us can wave our troops to Xiangyang—" said Manchu Zhengse, "Why." Xiahoudun glared and shouted angrily. Man Pet smiled slightly bitterly when he heard this, and immediately explained. "Yuan Rang, how is Xiangyang compared to Fancheng?"
"Uh" Xiahoudun suddenly came to his senses.
"So what should we do...... Is it just to sit and watch Liu Xuan'er recover Xiangfan? ”
Xiahou said hatefully. Full Pet is also a wry smile. "Yuan Rang, at this time, we only have 15,000 troops in our hands - the strength is no longer superior."
"In Xiangyang, it is occupied and there is no ...... Our army's food and grass were cut off, and people were lost. ”
"General Yuan Rang, General Zilian...... Pet means, for the sake of the overall situation - let's withdraw the troops. ”
Xiahoudun's face sank, and there was quite unhappiness between his eyebrows, but he was not a stupid person, of course he understood that what Man Zhong said made sense, and then looked at Cao Hong again and said, "Zilian, what do you think?" ”
"Ahem...... Wen Ze defected to the enemy, and a certain did not believe it. But—Berning's words are true. Yuan Rang, at this time, we can make a comeback in the future-"
Cao Hong said in a low voice.
When Xiahoudun heard this, his one-eyed expression suddenly flashed with an unwilling look. "Okay, pass the order to go down and retreat to Xinye while the night is dark."
"Don't—"
Three voices sounded at the same time, it was Man Chong and Cao Hong, Kuai Yue. Kuai Yue looked at Xiahoudun at this time and said categorically, "General Yuan Rang-Xinye is on the side of Fancheng, and it only takes dozens of miles to get together in the blink of an eye, and Xinye is not in danger at all." ”
"Liu Xuan's iron heart subdued Jingzhou - how could he give up the Xinye frontier land?"
"Then you mean to withdraw to Nanyang?" Xiahoudun looked at Cao Hong, full of favors, Kuai Yue!
"And then—"
"Okay, pass on the general's order, the army quickly assembled, and retreated to Wancheng overnight."
…………
At the dawn of the day, Wei Yan climbed the city as before and looked at the Cao Jun military camp from afar, but this time Wei Yan felt that something was wrong.
Today, why didn't Cao's army attack the city? Wei Yan's eyebrows were a little puzzled, could it be that this was the conspiracy of Xiahou Xuan's house? The corners of Wei Yan's mouth raised a sneer. Whatever you want, Lao Tzu just guards Fancheng.
However, as time passed, Wei Yan's brows furrowed even tighter.
Finally, at noon, Wei Yan couldn't hold back and sent a scout to the Cao Jun military camp to investigate, and the scout came back to report.
"What-Cao Jun's barracks go to the camp? Has the army withdrawn to Wancheng? ”
Wei Yan couldn't believe it. The tiger glared at the boss. However, after a while, Wei Yan guessed that Xiahou Dun's army had retreated.
"Come on, quickly go to Xiangyang to inform the prince that Xiahoudun has withdrawn."
After saying that, Wei Yan shouted again, "Call Bai Yu to lead an army of 3,000 to Lao Tzu to occupy the Xinye ......."
"Whew-"
By the time Liu Xuan received Wei Yan's information, it was already early in the morning.
In the Governor's Mansion, Liu Xuan looked at the information in his hand and sighed slightly, "It seems that Xiahou Xuan's family hasn't been carried away by anger yet——"
"Brother, it should be the result of Kuai Yue's dissuasion-but it's a good compensation to get Xinye, an important town in Jingbei, for nothing."
Zhou Budo said. "Yuanzhi, you're right—it's just a pity." Liu Xuan shook his head slightly, and then laughed at himself again, "Hehe, but Xuan is a little greedy." Hehe. ”
After that, Liu Xuan just called out. "Someone—"
Soon, Xu Peng came to the hall, "Childe? ”
"Well, and send this letter to my father in Gangneung quickly—"
"Whew-"
