After nightfall, Cao's army stopped attacking, and the city of Xuzhou returned to temporary tranquility.Everyone is optimistic about the safety of Xuzhou City, and if this situation continues, Cao Cao will not be able to fight for a month.But Zhuge Liang said that Cao Cao would have to withdraw from the army in half a month at most, even if his grain and grass could be supported, he would have to take care of Yuan Shao in Jizhou.Zheng Feng returned to the mansion, filled his stomach indiscriminately, and immediately went to Zhou Gong, after a whole day, people were already tired, even if there were five beautiful wives like flowers and jade, this night would not be blessed.This night, Cao Cao couldn't sleep, his heart was impetuous, and Xuzhou City was really a difficult thing to bite.If there was no division of troops to Sima Yi and Xun Yu, and the 50,000 army launched an attack together, Liu Bei might not be able to carry it for three days, but Xiao Pei, Donghai and Langya would not be able to sleep if they were not blocked, and Guo Jia would not be able to sleep, and came to find Cao Cao, he also thought that if this continued, Xuzhou would definitely not be able to attack.Cao Cao asked: "Guo Junshi, what good strategies do you have" Guo Jia shook his head: "Zhuge Liang can't hold on, there is really no way to take him." ”Cao Cao said: "There was a fast horse in return, Yuan Shulian suffered a defeat and returned to Shouchun, leaving only Ji Ling to attack Pengcheng. ”Guo Jia said: "That's bad, Ji Ling is Xu Shu's opponent, he is just surrounding Pengcheng at most." ”Cao Cao sighed: "Do I want to retreat and watch Liu Bei become stronger" Guo Jia said: "No, the initiative is in the hands of the lord now, and you can't give it up casually."
I suggest that the city be sieged for ten days before making any plans. ”Cao Cao said, "That's it. ”Early the next morning, Cao Cao ordered his troops to storm and personally went to the city to supervise the battle.Zhang Liao struggled to refuse, led his subordinates to fight to the death with the Cao army that climbed up, and with the help of Chen Zhi's Bai Yu soldiers, he repelled the onslaught of the Cao army again and again, and held the city head tightly in his own hands.On the city of Xuzhou, there were many dead and wounded, but Cao Cao was still supervising the battle, and the offensive of Cao's army was unabated.Under a wave of onslaught, a large number of Cao soldiers climbed the city wall again, and the city of Xuzhou was in danger."
Don't let Cao Bing run down, otherwise you won't be able to guard the city gate."
Zhang Liao shouted while leading the crowd to kill."
White Soldiers, Shield Array."
Zheng Feng roared, his side attacked the most Cao soldiers, but he found that the city in this section was four meters wide, and the Bai Yu soldiers used a shield array to fight, and many Cao soldiers died properly.Two hundred white soldiers raised a column of shields and ran towards the Cao soldiers on the city, and the Cao soldiers rushed over to resist, and the two sides collided together, about to fight together.Suddenly, between the gaps in the shield, a blade with a bright handle stretched out, and the shield array was like a rolling hedgehog, mercilessly strangling the enemy, and Cao Bing, who had escaped with his life, was shocked and frightened, and would rather jump off the city than make contact with the shield array.Xuzhou City is in a fierce battle, Xiao Pei is also in a fierce battle, and Sima Yi has calculated a lot, but he can't be counted as being suddenly attacked by an army.Zhang Fei had already fought Xu Chu and was fighting too much to spend, while Huang Zhong, Pang De and Yan Yan were running through Cao Ying, looking for Sima Yi's whereabouts.Pang De's plan was to directly abandon the East China Sea, attack Sima Yi's troops, and liberate Xiao Pei's soldiers and horses, and another goal was to eradicate Sima Yi, a powerful military division, and Zhang He and Dian Wei saw that the Cao camp outside the city was on fire, and without thinking about it, he led his troops out and directly entered the Cao camp.Sima Yi's troops were attacked by Huang Zhong's troops, and they were already overwhelmed and collapsed.Now that Zhang He led his troops to kill again, Cao Jun was even more unable to resist, and collapsed all of a sudden, either fleeing or dying.Xu Chu saw that the situation was not good, and he dared to fight with Zhang Fei there, so he made a false move and quickly escaped.Huang Zhong met Zhang He in the rush, and asked at the head: "Have you seen Sima Yi" Zhang He said: "No." ”Huang Zhong said: "No matter what, I have to find Sima Yi, kill him with a knife, and break Cao Cao's wing." ”Zhang He asked: "Aren't you guarding the East China Sea, what are you doing here" Huang Zhong said: "What's the use of guarding the East China Sea, it's not that you are blocked and can't get out like you, the lord needs us to stab Cao Cao in the back." ”Zhang He said: "It makes sense, I have been trapped in the past few days, and I want to die." ”Huang Zhong said: "Let's go, let's get together and stab Cao Cao in Xuzhou." ”Zhang He looked at Cao Bing who was fleeing everywhere and said, "The soldiers are very fast, let's make Cao Cao a knife before these deserters go back to report." ”Pang De had already come over, he listened to the conversation between Huang Zhong and Zhang He, and hurriedly said: "Xiao Pei is different from the East China Sea, Xiao Pei can't give up, otherwise Cao Cao's reinforcements don't need to make a detour, and they can directly enter Xuzhou from Xiao Pei, which will increase the pressure on Xuzhou City." ”Zhang He thought for a while and said, "I will lead 3,000 men and horses to stay in Xiaopei, and Dian Wei will lead 2,000 people to fight back to Xuzhou with you." ”Huang Zhong was stunned: "In case the Cao army comes to attack again, without the help of Dian Wei, can you hold it" Zhang He smiled: "I can't defend it, even if Lu Bu comes, I won't break it." ”Huang Zhong thought for a while, and then called Yan Yan over: "Brother Yan, Xiao Peizhongdi, I asked you to stay and assist Zhang He." ”Yan Yan was not very reluctant: "But I want to go back and beat Cao Cao." ”Huang Zhong said: "Dian Wei is more effective than you, his name is famous, he is scared to death, and he can control Xu Chu, if he stays in Xiaopei, it will be overkill, and it will be wasteful." ”Yan Yan understood the righteousness, and immediately agreed and followed Zhang He back to Xiaopei.At the moment when Zhang Fei raided the camp, Sima Yi judged that the general situation had gone, so he changed into the clothes of ordinary soldiers and fled among the defeated soldiers.But he fled halfway, and found that a large number of people were chasing behind him, so he quickly hid in the woods and watched Zhang Fei and the others leave.Sima Yi secretly complained, Zhang Fei went straight to Xuzhou with such a large number of people, Cao Cao would be hit hard, and he was unable to report the news, so he was helpless for a while.At this time, a few more defeated soldiers of Cao's army came over on horseback, and Sima Yi was overjoyed and hurriedly stepped forward to intercept him."
Oh, it's Sima Junshi."
A Cao soldier hurriedly jumped off his horse and knelt down to Sima Yi."
You guys, send me back to Yanzhou."
Sima Yi said."
I won't go back to Yanzhou to report to Xuzhou," Cao Bing said in surprise."
It's too late to go to Xuzhou, the lord is destined to suffer a loss this time, and it is in vain for us to go.I will go back to Yanzhou first, and then draw some troops and horses to come over, otherwise the lord will not have enough troops to take Xuzhou. ”Sima Yi said as he jumped on Cao Bing's mount.Since Sima Yi gave the order, those Cao soldiers did not dare to disobey, and immediately escorted Sima Yi to Yanzhou.By the time Xu Huang led 3,000 men and horses to Xiaopei, the war here had already ended, and Zhang Fei also led his men and horses to support Xuzhou City.Xu Huang was so angry that he stomped his feet, regretting that he hadn't discovered Huang Zhong's trick earlier and missed the time to support Sima Yi.It turned out that the soldiers in the array at the head of Donghai City were fake, all camouflaged by straw, and even Xun Yu couldn't tell the difference, and he was alive and well
