"Zilong, I'll leave it to you."
Liu Bei waited for the ink to dry on the letter he wrote in his hand, then sealed the envelope and handed it to Zhao Yun who was standing beside him.
Zhao Yun nodded, took the bow and arrow from a soldier beside him, then tied the letter to the arrow, then drew the bow and pointed towards Cao in the center.
"Lord, be careful!"
The bow and arrow came directly towards Cao Cao.
Dian Wei on the side noticed the approaching crisis and shouted to Cao Cao with a somewhat anxious look.
Then he raised the short halberd in his hand and knocked down the arrow. .
Cao Cao looked at the arrows that were shot down, with a trace of cold sweat on his forehead.
Then he looked at Zhao Yun at the top of the city who put away his bow with a gloomy expression, and gritted his teeth.
"Lord, there is a letter on this arrow."
The guard on the side found a letter on the arrow, carefully picked up the bow and arrow, and said to Cao Cao cautiously.
"Oh" Cao Cao was slightly surprised.
He snatched the arrow from the guard's hand, then took down the letter, opened it and read it slowly.
Cao Cao felt bad after reading the letter Liu Bei wrote to him.
This letter persuaded Cao Cao to retreat.
Not only did Liu Bei show his face, but he also showed the face of his master Lu Zhi.
He hoped that Cao Cao could see Liu Bei in his eyes.
In order to save the face of his master Lu Zhi, he withdrew his troops from Xuzhou.
"Take Lu Gong to persuade me, this Liu Bei is real."
After reading the letter, Cao Cao looked a little strange.
The guards on the side looked at Cao Cao and did not dare to say anything.
Then Cao Cao angrily tore Liu Bei's letter into pieces, then stared at Liu Bei on the top of the city, and said in a hoarse voice: "Lu Gong is dead, Liu Bei, why are you pretending to be an uncle?"
"I'm sure of Xuzhou, I can't keep him, that's what I said."
Cao Cao looked at Liu Bei's figure at the top of the city with a gloomy face and said coldly.
Cao Cao pulled out the Yitian Sword from his waist, faced the soldiers who were attacking the city with a cold face, and said in a majestic tone: "The whole army is attacking the city, and whoever is the first to attack Xiapi, I declare him the lord of Xuzhou."
Cao Cao's words were like a stimulant, making the entire Cao army boil.
They picked up the weapons in their hands and attacked Xiapi City Gate crazily.
What a temptation it was for the Lord of Xuzhou.
Tao Qian's face suddenly turned pale when he saw how crazy the Cao soldiers under the city were.
He was at a loss and didn't know what to do.
"Xuande, how come Cao Cao not only didn't retreat, but instead attacked more fiercely?"
Tao Qian looked at Liu Bei, who had a rather deep look on his side, with a bad expression, and asked in a hasty tone.
Liu Bei began to sweat on his forehead at this time.
He looked at Cao Cao's army like a madman below, and then listened to Tao Qian's eager questions beside him.
Finally, he gritted his teeth and said firmly to Tao Qian: "Don't worry, Mr.
Tao.
If Cao Cao ignores worldly views and attacks Xuzhou forcefully, I, Liu Xuande, will do my best to protect Xuzhou. " Tao Qian looked at Liu Bei's confident tone, and finally sighed helplessly.
Not knowing what to say, he quickly called to the soldiers beside him, ready to shoot bows and arrows at the crazy Cao Jun below, slowing down the progress of Cao Cao Jun's attack below. .
At this time, Cao Cao's army at the bottom of the city and Xuzhou's army at the top of the city started an offensive and defensive battle for the city.
On one side, Cao Cao's army on the attacking side frantically attacked the city gate, while on the other side, they used bows, arrows and stones to attack the attacking Cao Cao's army.
"Lord, the defenders in the city are resisting very fiercely.
Many of our brothers have been injured."
At this time, Cao Ren came to Cao Cao with a cold face.
Looking at the Xuzhou Army who was attacking crazily at the top of the city, he spoke in a serious tone. said Cao Cao.
After hearing what Cao Ren said, Cao Cao frowned slightly as he looked at the injured soldiers on the battlefield.

His pupils stared tightly at the enemy troops who were frantically defending the city.
He said in a cold tone: "I didn't expect the Xuzhou Army's resistance to be so fierce.
It's so fierce that it really makes me angry.
When our army attacks Xiapi, all the defenders in Xiapi City will be killed without mercy."
"Lord" Cao Ren looked at Cao Cao's cold eyes.
He originally wanted to say something, but he was choked in his throat and couldn't say anything because Cao Cao's face was as cold as a murderous god at this time.
"Urgent report, urgent report, Yanzhou urgent report."
Just as Cao Cao looked at his soldiers attacking Xiapi with a cold expression, a cavalryman came to the foot of Xiapi City with a hurried expression, and quickly came to Cao Cao, his tone was breathless. said Cao Cao.
"Urgent report from Yanzhou" After hearing the words of the messenger, Cao Cao looked a little strange and began to feel bad in his heart.
He looked at the soldiers kneeling on the ground.
"My lord, this is a letter from Mr.
Wen Ruo."
The soldier took out a letter from his chest and handed it to Cao Cao with a tired face.
When he handed it to Cao Cao, the soldier fell to the ground.
"What's wrong with him?"
Cao Cao, who received the letter, looked at the messenger who suddenly fell to the ground, and asked the soldiers beside him with a somewhat doubtful expression.
The soldier squatted down, looked at the messenger who fell on the ground, and said to Cao Cao with a calm expression: "My lord, he seems to be asleep."
"You carry him, go down and rest."
Cao Cao looked at the letter in his hand, and then looked at the tired soldier who fell to the ground.
The doubts in his heart became more serious, and he said to the soldiers beside him.
Cao Cao watched the messenger leave, opened the letter in his hand, and looked at the letter carefully.
His originally suspicious expression became heavy, and he was stunned.
In the end, the letter in his hand fell to the ground out of confusion.
"Lord" Seeing Cao Cao suddenly stunned, Xun You asked Cao Cao with a puzzled expression.
When he found that Cao Cao was not moving at all, he quickly dismounted and picked up the letter.
After reading it, Xun You's expression also became ugly.
"What's wrong Gongda?"
Xi Zhicai looked at Cao Cao and Xun You with a trace of suspicion on his pale face.
He stared at the letter in Xun You's hand intently, and then asked Xun You who looked heavy. .
"Lü Bu suddenly appeared in Chenliu with his army.
Chenliu, Zhang Miao and Chen Gong welcomed Lu Bu into Chenliu late at night.
Fortunately, his uncle was aware of Chen Gong and sent people overnight to move everyone's family members to Puyang.
Now every county in Yanzhou The nobles and officials betrayed Duke Ming one after another and took refuge with Lu Bu.
Now Yanzhou has basically become Lu Bu's territory. " "Zhang Mengzhuo, Chen Gongtai, I trust them so much, but they did such a thing, as well as those aristocratic families in Yanzhou, I will definitely cut them into pieces."
Cao Cao gritted his teeth with a cold expression and shouted angrily.
Xi Zhicai felt a little ashamed in his heart.
He still underestimated the great families in Yanzhou.
He originally thought that the great families could not achieve success without an army.
Unexpectedly, the great families in Yanzhou actually joined forces with Lu Bu to seize Yanzhou.
Due to the situation, the officials in Yanzhou all Betrayed Cao Cao.
Thinking of this, Xi Zhicai suddenly became depressed, his chest felt tight, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth.
"Zhicai" Cao Cao looked at Xi Zhicai's sudden appearance and his body was shaky.
He quickly approached Xi Zhicai and supported Xi Zhicai who was about to fall.
Xi Zhicai fell into Cao Cao's arms.
His face was frighteningly pale at this time.

He slowly opened his eyes and said to Cao Cao in a weak tone: "My lord, it was Zhicai who made a mistake.
This time Yanzhou made a mistake, and all the blame lies with him."
Zhicai, Zhicai deserves to pay so much attention to his lord."
"Zhicai, it's not your fault.
It's all my own way.
Don't blame yourself.
I will still need Zhicai's help in the future."
Cao Cao looked at Xi Zhicai, who fell in his arms and was extremely weak, and his tone was full of concern.
Said to Xi Zhicai.
Xi Zhicai looked at Cao Cao's anxious face, pondered for a moment, and said to Cao Cao in a weak voice: "Now that Yanzhou has been lost, Xuzhou can no longer be fought.
If the incident in Yanzhou spreads among the army, the morale will be greatly reduced." , my lord might as well have peace talks with Tao Qian and ask Tao Qian for some food and grass.
The outer Xiaopei City must be included in the pocket.
Xiaopei City is located in the middle of Yanzhou, Xuzhou and Yuzhou.
The lord can connect his current territory and rely on the land of Yuzhou to gather troops to fight against Lu Bu and recapture Yanzhou.
As for Xuzhou, since Xiaopei It’s already in hand, my lord, let’s wait until the next opportunity to talk about it.”
Seeing Xi Zhicai still making suggestions for him, Cao Cao nodded heavily to Xi Zhicai, and then said in a serious tone: "Zhicai, I understand, you should rest first, I will need you again in the future
