Cao Ang was overjoyed when he heard this, although Cao Ang and Zuo Ci have known each other for many days, but he always felt that Zuo Ci was just a Taoist who pretended to be a ghost, but he didn't expect that after a heart-to-heart conversation today, this Zuo Ci could really give himself hope to stand up again!

Such hope simply gave Cao Ang the belief of rebirth, since he learned that he could not stand, he wanted to die more than once, but now Cao Cao has recruited him from the world a person who can heal himself, a person who gives himself hope, how can Cao Ang not be ecstatic?

Cao Ang looked at Zuo Ci and said respectfully, "I don't know how the inferior can stand up?" ”

Zuo Ci smiled slightly, his eyes revealed infinite mystery, and said in a low voice: "As long as you listen to me obediently, you will naturally know, don't worry." ”

Cao Ang listened to it, and only felt that today's master had become extraordinarily kind and kind, he looked at Zuo Ci's deep pupils, his old face, grinned, and replied, "Obey!" ”

……

A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and Chen Yan finally gained a firm foothold outside Puyang City.

Now that the camp has been set up, Chen Yan's army is mighty, stretching for dozens of miles, and from a distance, it is even more spectacular than the camp that Cao Cao besieged Lu Bu that day.

Cao Cao is a battle-hardened old fox, he looked at it from the city tower, and knew that Chen Yan's troops were at least 500,000 to 100,000 more than his own, although the gap in strength was not huge, but considering that Chen Yan's combat readiness facilities were really ahead, Cao Cao's chances of victory were really not big.

The upstairs of Puyang City was still blowing in the spring breeze, Cao Cao was dressed in a military uniform, and a pair of eyes that were not too big shot out of the scorching light, staring at Chen Yan's camp deadly.

There were two people standing on the side, Xun Yu and Xun Yu, and only these two dared to appear by Cao Cao's side when he was upset.

Cao Cao looked at Chen Yan's camp and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "The arrangement of this guy's camp has a faint meaning of twenty-eight constellations, it seems that Chen Yan really has a master around him." ”

Xun Yu smiled slightly and said: "It is said that Chen Yan has a strategist by his side, named Jia Xu, who was born in the Xiliang Army, has a mysterious background, and has countless strategies in his chest, and is a strange person. ”

Cao Cao turned his head to look at Xun Yu, snorted coldly, and said, "So strange? Xiliang, I've only heard of Li Ru, where did this Jia Xu come from? ”

Xun Yu knew that Cao Cao was in a bad mood at this time because he was besieged by Chen Yan, and he was not as knowledgeable as his stinky temper, so he replied slowly: "Jia Xu's city is very deep, and he does not show mountains and water on weekdays, and only plays a role at critical moments. ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he finally began to realize that this legendary Jia Xu was really a powerful character, his brows became tighter and tighter, and after a while, he sighed and asked, "What about your old acquaintance from Yingzhou, and the one named Guo Jia that Xi Zhong also knows?" What role does he play next to Chen Yan? ”

Xun Yu slowly explained: "Guo Jia Guo Fengxiao is a genius, resourceful and decisive, is an unborn talent, when he assisted Yuan Shao, he didn't even look down on Yuan Shao, and now he must be in a high position in Chen Yan's army, and it is very likely that he will be Chen Yan's right-hand man with Jia Xu." ”

Cao Cao frowned when he heard this, his heart was sad, he sighed and said: "This Chen Yan is really good, Jia Xu and Guo Jia, no matter which one is enough for me to have a headache, now if I expect it to be good, I'm afraid that this guy from Chen Gong has already run into Chen Yan's army." Alas......"

After a long sigh, Cao Cao looked at the huge and extremely shocking catapult in Chen Yan's military camp, let out a long sigh again, and then said: "There is also this thunderbolt catapult, I don't know what method Chen Yan used to build it?" Why is the destructive power so amazing, this has been calm for several days, I'm afraid it is Chen Yan who is preparing to attack, if one day he comes to attack the city with these terrible things, then how can we deal with it? ”

Speaking of this, Xun You suddenly smiled slightly and said, "Don't panic, lord, I already have a way to deal with it." ”

Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard this, Xun You has always said one thing at a time, and there is almost no exaggeration, so now that Xun You has come forward to say that he has a countermeasure, then I am afraid he really has a countermeasure.

Cao Cao stepped forward and asked eagerly, "Gongda quickly explains!" ”

Xun You smiled: "Although the catapult is called a car, according to my observation, he is not really fast at all, so if he moves on the battlefield, speed is a big problem." And I look at its material, most of them are made of wood, and now it has just entered the spring, and it is still dry and dry, if you combine its two major shortcomings, it is a strategy to break the enemy. ”

Cao Cao was not stupid, he naturally heard the truth in Xun You's words, he raised his eyebrows, he was very excited, and immediately said: "The catapult is bulky, let's use cavalry to deal with it, the cavalry gallops fast, and the catapult loses the accuracy of the attack!" ”

Xun You nodded and said, "Not bad!" In the original battle of Wancheng, General Xiahoudun broke Chen Yan, and it was the cavalry team that was used! ”

Cao Cao continued: "It's not enough to use cavalry alone, if we want to destroy this catapult in one fell swoop, and attack it with fire, and take more fire oil to attack it, then the catapult will be wiped out!" ”

Xun You nodded and smiled: "Yes, what the lord said is very true. ”

When the two of them said this, they solved a big worry in Cao Cao's heart, and at this time, Cao Cao turned his head to look at Chen Yan's camp again, and instantly felt that Chen Yan, who was like a wolf and a tiger, was not so terrible.

……

Besides, Chen Yan over there is naturally also thinking about how to break through this Puyang City, although Puyang City changed its owner three times, first Cao Cao, and then occupied by Lu Bu, this time it fell into Cao Cao's hands again, but this back and forth, did not have much impact on the city, this Puyang City is still indestructible, standing on the plain.

Chen Yan sat in the big tent of the Chinese army, surrounded by the capable generals, and looked at a topographic map on the table together.

This topographic map is naturally brought by Chen Gong to "honor" Chen Yan, Chen Gong is not stupid, but an extremely meticulous person, the map of Puyang City and the surrounding terrain he carries with him at any time in the hidden places, which also adds a lot of weight to his own value.

Sure enough, with Chen Gong's understanding of Cao Cao and the topographic map on his body, Chen Gong, who had just joined Chen Yan's army, had already received enough attention from Chen Yan, and even from some angles, he could almost go neck and neck with Jia Xu and Guo Jia.

Chen Yan was staring at the structure of Puyang City with a pair of sharp eyes at this time, and he asked in a low voice: "Gongtai, before you said that Cao Cao was lured to Puyang City, and then General Lu Bu attacked Puyang City with fire and burned Puyang City?" ”

Chen Gong nodded and said, "Yes, there is such a thing." ”

Chen Yan's eyes lit up, and he raised his head and asked, "Where did this happen in Puyang City?" ”
