In Xuchang City, Xun Yu stayed here.

He is Cao Cao's most trusted minister, in addition to the heavy task of sticking to the rear and ensuring logistics, Xun Yu also needs to preside.

And at this moment, there are urgent reports from Wancheng and Hefei.

In the middle of the government.

Xun Yu's expression changed greatly, such a hurried report meant that something big had happened. Now that Cao Cao is leading the army and is fighting a decisive battle with Liu Qi in Hanzhong, he naturally can't be distracted.

And at this moment, Jingzhou and Jiangdong are actually using troops at the same time, and their goals are very clear. Whether it is Wancheng or Hefei, it is a vital position for Cao Ying.

Once occupied by enemy forces, you will definitely be at a disadvantage.

Xun Yu's eyes are resolute, he is not an indecisive person, when Lu Bu attacked Yanzhou, if Xun Yu and others did not defend the city, Cao Cao's hometown would be gone.

Although the current situation is unfavorable, it has not reached the point of no return. Even if the enemy army came to kill on a large scale, Xun Yu didn't think that they could easily break through the city.

Wancheng has a full pet guard, and Hefei has Lejin.

Both of them were Cao Cao's generals.

After thinking about it, Xun Yu immediately found Xiahou Shang and Li Dian who were left behind by Cao Cao.

The second will come to the palace.

Xun Yu said solemnly:

"Two generals, I just got the news that the soldiers and horses of Jingzhou and Jiangdong acted at the same time to attack Wancheng and Hefei, and they were menacing, and the city was in danger.

The prime minister ordered us to stay in Xuchang, and these two places are critical and must not be lost. Soldiers and horses must be sent in time to support, and now in Xuchang City, how many people can be mobilized? ”

Xun Yu asked how many soldiers and horses could be mobilized without affecting the defense of Xuchang City.

Hearing this, Xiahou Shang arched his hand and said:

"Lingjun, there are 30,000 soldiers and horses that can be called in the city now."

30,000 people.

This number may be a lot in normal times, but according to the news that Xun Yu knows, the soldiers and horses of Jingzhou and Jiangdong are all elite, and they have already made up their minds.

It was precisely because Cao Cao was in Hanzhong that he could not return to help in a short time, and more soldiers and horses gathered under Cao Cao's command.

After a short silence, Xun Yu said seriously:

"30,000 soldiers and horses, if they are divided into two ways to support, I am afraid that they will be broken by the enemy one by one, and we must mobilize all the soldiers and horses in Xuzhou to support Hefei as soon as possible."

The two generals looked at each other and asked suspiciously:

"What do you mean?"

Xun Yu did not hide it, and said calmly:

"Although Hefei is equally important, but in comparison, Wancheng can not afford to lose, if Wancheng is taken by the people of Jingzhou, then Luoyang in the Central Plains, and Xuchang are in danger.

Now the soldiers and horses are limited, and only to support Wancheng first, otherwise both places will fall into the trap of the enemy. ”

Li Dian did not hesitate, and said:

"Lingjun, the last general is willing to lead troops to support."

And Xiahou Shang groaned slightly, and said:

"In this case, the last general will take people to Xuzhou to rectify the soldiers and horses, and then go to Hefei to support!"

After the arrangements were made, Xun Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

But he is still uneasy, if the reinforcements have not yet arrived, Wancheng and Hefei will be breached, what should I do, his combat power is limited, I am afraid it will be difficult to maneuver!

However, Xun Yu's heart is firm.

Now it's just about doing what you can.

Even if the enemy army is killed outside Xuchang City, he should guard the city and protect the safety of the Son of Heaven.

Xun Yu is naturally loyal to the Han family.

Although Liu Qi, as a member of the Han family, now occupies half of the country, for Xun Yu, he and Cao Cao still have the righteousness of monarchs and ministers, which cannot be ignored.

If Liu Qi can really dominate the world, then he has nothing to say about the prosperity of the Han family.

If Liu Qi was finally defeated by Cao Cao, now that he is in Cao's camp, he can also protect the Son of Heaven a little.

Therefore, unless Cao Cao directly expressed his arrogance, Xun Yu would never betray him.

In the land of Jingbei.

Both fronts have already won.

The defenders of Nieyang and Jianyang, in the face of the strong attack of Jingzhou's elite, could only delay time. No help

The army is already one step ahead of them, so there is only one final result.

After rectifying the soldiers and horses, Xue Li and his entourage killed Wancheng.

Wancheng is a good place.

Taking Wancheng means occupying the core area of Nanyang, and when the time comes, the north can kill the Central Plains, the former capital of the Han Dynasty, Luoyang, and the east can directly approach Xuchang and cut off Cao Cao's retreat.

What to do when the time comes depends on Liu Qi's thoughts.

After losing Wancheng, Cao Cao needs to leave more soldiers and horses behind if he wants to defend again, which is an inevitable problem.

"I'm going to Wancheng soon, now there are only about 10,000 defenders in the city, and now our army is overwhelming, and we need to capture the city as soon as possible, otherwise the reinforcements are coming, and it will be a lot of trouble to break the city."

Looking at the vague city wall in front of him, Xue Li said firmly.

Now that the situation is very clear, when the man came to support, he must have sent an envoy to inform Xuchang of the news, maybe the reinforcements are already on the way at this moment.

There isn't much time left for them right now.

It won't take more than three days.

Hearing Xue Li's words, Guan Yu squinted his eyes slightly, revealing a touch of contempt, and said at the same time:

"It's just a city, how can we stop our army?"

Xue Li smiled dumbly.

These days, he knows a little about Guan Yu.

This Guan Yunchang, if he is a person he can afford, then his attitude is very good. If he doesn't look down on someone, his attitude will be as arrogant as he is, and it will even make people feel a little underwhelmed.

Without further ado, Xue Li gave an order.

Now that the opportunity to attack Wancheng is in front of them, they must seize the time and take the opportunity into their own hands.

The army attacked the city, and the morale was boosted.

And at this moment, the soldiers who stayed in Wancheng, they were very panicked, but they were helpless, they had already reached this point, and they had to go all out to defend the city, hoping that the reinforcements would come sooner!

At the same time, the news that the full pet was ambushed has also been reported.

Fortunately, before the full favor left the city, people had prepared sufficient equipment to defend the city, so that they would not be powerless to fight back when facing the strong attack of the Jingzhou army.

You come and go, and the killing is not fierce.

Outside the city of Hefei.

The fierce battle has already begun.

Gan Ning made up his mind and didn't have the slightest idea of keeping his hand.

Hefei is a key place, and if Cao Jun is ready, it will be difficult to take Hefei. If you don't take advantage of Cao Cao's absence, Cao Jun will not be able to support in time, and if Hefei is taken first, it will be even more difficult later.

For Gan Ning, he knew Liu Qi's goals and ambitions.

The lord is running to rule the world.

And he, as Liu Qi's chief general, of course, has to show his worth. Now Liu Qi trusts him and puts the entire Jiangdong defense in his hands, which is a great responsibility.

Wouldn't it be a joke if we couldn't do it well?

The army was on the offensive fiercely.

Gan Ning does everything.

As long as the ideas that help the siege are used.

What digging tunnels, catapults, siege vehicles, a lot of the same exertion, gave Hefei City enough face.
