Chapter 17: Cao Pi's Rescue

"My lord, this time, although our army has suffered a small loss, it has hurt the fundamentals, and Cao Mengde has military power, and his army has a lot of grain and grass, if we fight with it for a long time, I am afraid that we will have a big trouble, it is better to avoid the edge for the time being, and then make plans in the future."

"Gong Jin, you said it lightly, if you retreat at this time, how can you talk about revenge in the future, do you mean that we have to endure it forever?"

Sun Quan's face was ugly.

"The lord and the minister are also worried about the safety of the country, if once Cao Cao controls the overall situation, then we must make a decision as soon as possible."

Zhou Yu bowed and said.

"The foreign minister thinks that Lu Su's method is very good."

Zhuge Liang came out and persuaded him.

Sun Quan looked at Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu and was annoyed in his heart.

"Gong Jin, this king's opinion this time will not be pursued, however, this king hopes that you will remember one thing in the future, this is a matter of life and death, don't be rash, otherwise, this king will not spare you."

Zhou Yu heard Sun Quan's warning, hurriedly bowed his head, and replied respectfully: "The minister should remember the teachings of the lord. ”

"Okay, you guys go down first, and I'll tell you when I think it through!"

"No!"

The two exited the main hall, and Sun Quan looked at everyone and was silent for a long time.

"Guys, do you think we should attack or defend?"

"Back to the lord, the minister thinks that it should be defended! Although Cao Mengde is powerful, he can't be underestimated, my lord, if we force an attack, I'm afraid the losses will be incalculable! ”

"The minister thinks that it should be defended!"

Sun Quan's face was gloomy, he looked at everyone and said coldly.

"If we don't send troops, Cao Cao will come to the door sooner or later, then, when the time comes, won't Cao Cao be slaughtered?"

Sun Quan's eyes were sharp, sweeping towards everyone, and everyone was stared at by Sun Quan's gaze, and they were all pale.

"The minister believes that this matter cannot be acted rashly!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

Everyone seconded Sun Quan.

"Then, according to what you say, send an order to the camps, not to act rashly, and wait for me to think it through, and then make a decision!"

"Whoa!"

Everyone bowed down and agreed.

......

Lujiang, in the palace.

Cao Cao looked at the secret letter placed on the table, his face was full of smiles, and a trace of cunning flashed in his eyes.

"Hehe, I want to see what you do!"

Immediately, Cao Cao picked up the secret letter and looked at it carefully.

"Hahaha......"

After reading the secret letter, Cao Cao laughed.

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, this secret letter is the plan this time, Xu Shu is still in Yecheng, and the plan in the secret letter is also made by Xu Shu.

"I really didn't expect Xu Shu to have such a strategy, and he really didn't misunderstand him!"

Cao Cao looked up to the sky and laughed, his smile was extremely bright, and he looked very happy.

At this time, Cao Pi hurriedly ran in from outside the hall.

"Father, father!"

Cao Pi ran all the way into the hall, panting, beads of sweat on his forehead, looking very tired.

Looking at Cao Pi, Cao Cao frowned.

"Pi'er, what's wrong with you? What does this look like? ”

"Shouchun was attacked, that Tai Shi Ci took eight thousand elite soldiers and went around to Shouchun, and now he is attacking the city!"

Hearing Cao Pi's words, Cao Cao was taken aback.

"What? That Tai Shi Ci actually sneaked around outside Shouchun City and began to attack the city? ”

"Quick, come back, Xiaoxuan is still in Shouchun, Zhang Liao, Zhang Liao!"

Hearing the shout, Zhang Liao hurriedly rushed in.

"My lord, what do you command?"

"Quickly mobilize 5,000 soldiers and horses to Shouchun to rescue Xiaoxuan, and don't let Shouchun be lost!"

"Yes!"

Zhang Liao listened to the order and immediately took the order to leave.

"Pi'er, you join hands with Zhang Liao and go to Shouchun together, and you must defeat Tai Shici!"

"No!"

......

Early the next morning, Zhang Liao, Cao Pi, and more than 5,000 elite cavalry rushed to the outside of Shouchun City, while Tai Shici was confronting Sima Yi on the city wall under Shouchun City, and neither side moved.

On the wall of Shouchun, the general guarding the city held an iron halberd, looking at the elite soldiers under the city tower, his face changed slightly.

On the wall of Shouchun, there are a total of 3,000 guards, but most of these guards are just ordinary soldiers, which are not enough to resist Tai Shici's 8,000 elite soldiers.

But Sima Yi relied on strategy to drag on for a day.

"Tai Shici, my Shouchun City is tall and strong, and it is impossible for you to break through, so you should surrender obediently."

Sima Yi shouted from the top of the city tower to the bottom.

"You don't make noise there, I want to see if you can hold out for a few days, and when you run out of food, even if you have the ability again, it will only be in vain!"

Tai Shici listened to Sima Yi's words and said disdainfully.

Sima Yi's face sank.

"Hmph, Tai Shici, when do you think my family will send someone here?"

Sima Yi snorted coldly.

Tai Shi Ci smiled.

"Don't pretend there, Cao Cao is just so capable, and he wants to send an army to rescue you, you can dream of it!"

"Tai Shici, you don't want to be rampant, my family will come to our rescue soon!"

Sima Yi snorted coldly.

"Hmph, do you think Cao Cao can save you? You are too naïve, Cao Cao will not be able to save you, you better surrender obediently, maybe you can save your life! ”

Tai Shi Ci was also very panicked, behind this is Lujiang, as long as Cao Cao finds out, he will come in a day, then he is equivalent to a turtle in an urn.

But he still clings to the last glimmer of illusion.

"Hmph, Tai Shi Ci, you're too conceited, aren't you?"

Sima Yi looked at Tai Shici and snorted coldly.

Tai Shici's face changed.

"You!"

Tai Shici glared at Sima Yi, his eyes were about to burst into flames, but he couldn't find a reason to refute it.

Sima Yi looked at Tai Shi Ci's expression that was so angry that he couldn't speak, and couldn't help laughing.

"Tai Shici, the reality is so cruel, you better surrender obediently, don't struggle, you are not our opponent."

"You!"

Tai Shi Ci was so angry that his teeth were itching, but he was helpless.

Seeing this, Sima Yi was in a happier mood.

On the city wall, Cao Xuan watched everything quietly, with a faint smile on his face.

At this time, Zhang Liao rushed out with people.

"Kill, kill them!"

Zhang Liao shouted and led his five thousand soldiers and horses to rush towards Shouchun.

Seeing Zhang Liao's arrival, Tai Shici and the others were immediately shocked.

"It's not good, Cao Cao has sent someone here, evacuate, retreat!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Tai Shici hurriedly shouted, and at the same time led everyone to turn around and flee to the south.

Seeing this, Cao Xuan smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth.

"It's finally here,"

"I didn't expect it to be Zhang Liao."

"Behind it is ...... Cao Pi! ”

Behind Zhang Liao, Cao Pi had already come to the city gate, which made Cao Xuan frown slightly.

"Fourth brother, open the door."

Cao Pi rode a horse, looked at Cao Xuan on the city wall, and shouted.

"Hmm!"

Cao Xuan answered, and let people open the city gate.
