The exchange in the Assassin's Mansion finally fell silent, Xun Yu asked Chen Qi to go home first to wait for news, and after sending the others away, he came to the back hall with heavy steps.
"Sir, please."
Cao Ang took Xun Yu straight to the back hall, where Mrs.
Ding, Mrs.
Bian and Mrs.
Huan were already waiting in the back hall.
There is no Wancheng War in this time and space, and naturally there is no drama of Cao Ang dying in battle and Mrs.
Ding running away from home.
"The minister has seen three ladies."
Xun Yu bowed to the three of them.
"Sir, is the enemy really coming, and I will also go to war."
Cao Zhang, who was less than ten years old, waved his small fist and looked at Xun Yu excitedly, with a glint of eagerness in his eyes.
I have to say that Cao Cao's ability to give birth to a son is very powerful, the eldest son Cao Ang, and the second son Cao Pi are all talents who can write and martial arts, and the third son Cao Zhang loves martial arts, although he is still young, he has been able to lift a stone lock of eighty catties, and his martial arts are also quite appreciated by the generals of the Cao family.
"Zhang'er must not be rude," Mrs.
Ding's face turned cold and said sharply.
Cao Zhang's mouth was deflated, and he was pulled aside by Cao Ang.
Mrs.
Ding looked at Xun Yu's tired face and sighed: "Mr.
Wenruo, just say it directly, how is the war?"
Xun Yu smiled bitterly: "It's not good, the imperial court soldiers and horses are powerful, and the soldiers of our army have no power to fight back at all." ” It's true that no, for a whole day, I watched in horror as people bombarded the city with artillery, huge arrows took off into the air, and the soldiers defending the city didn't even dare to risk their heads.
"Sir, can you have a solution" Mrs.
Ding looked at Xun Yu, a little disappointed.
"Nope."
Xun Yu sighed: "Although the ministers said to the ministers before that they could support the ministers for three days, it was also for the sake of reassuring the hearts of the ministers, with the current siege weapons of the imperial court, any tricks and tricks are fake, and they can't even break through, and now the imperial army is just attacking the city with ballistas, if they wait for them to send troops in a big way, I am afraid that it will be a shock." ” "Sir, that imperial army is really so terrifying" Cao Pi finally couldn't help but say.
"Although the imperial army is strong, if it is just them, the minister has the confidence to hold out for a month, but if these siege weapons are added, the minister does not have the confidence to hold out for a day."
Xun Yu said abruptly.
For the support of the Han or the boycott of Liu Xie, Xun Yu has always been swaying, the era of the family and the country, the family is always in front, Xun Yu has always believed that Liu Xie is wrong, whether it is to prosper industry or business, it will make the imperial court lose control of the country, but the current facts have proved that Liu Xie is right, the development of industry directly brings such a crushing military power of the imperial court, and any clever strategy is pale here.
Mrs.
Ding and the others were frightened by Xun Yu's words, Xun Yu was the chief strategist under Cao Cao, and over the years, he had always been Cao Cao's most trusted rear, but this time, Xun Yu seemed to have reached the limit, and even he didn't have the confidence to stop it.
"Sir, you don't see my father at the end of his rope and want to join the imperial court."
Cao Pi looked at Xun Yu with a somewhat gloomy gaze.
Xun Yu trembled, and his face turned red.
"Zihuan shut up" Mrs.
Ding's eyes sharpened, and she scolded sharply.
"Sir, don't be surprised, Zihuan is still young and doesn't know the severity."
Mrs.
Bian hurriedly said.
Shaking his head bitterly, Xun Yu bowed to everyone and said: "Ladies and sons, don't worry, Yu will try to find some ways to delay a day or two, but if things are irreversible, ladies and sons, save yourself first." ” "Sir, you" Mrs.
Ding looked at Xun Yu, but saw that Xun Yu had turned around and walked silently towards the door, the back was much more rickety than before, as if she was ten years old in an instant, which made people feel sad.
"Sister, Zihuan, he is also young and vigorous" Mrs.
Bian looked at Mrs.
Ding carefully: "I didn't mean to bump into Mr.
Wen Ruo." ” "I know."
Mrs.
Ding sighed, turned her head to look at Mrs.

Bian, and said a little tiredly: "Sister, when do you say that it is impossible to disobey?"
"This" Mrs.
Bian smiled bitterly when she heard this: "Perhaps, it is really Mr.
Wen Ruo's alarmist words, the husband is in Picheng here, but he has left tens of thousands of troops, even the most elite tiger and leopard cavalry, all of them have stayed in the city, at least if you defend the city, you should be able to block the imperial army." ” "I hope so."
Madame Ding sighed and did not speak again.
In the next few days, Zhang Liao did not launch an attack, and the artillery and stone crossbows continued to bombard the city wall of Xiapi every day, and at the same time quickly sent a large army to seize various passes and cut off the communication between Xiapi and Guangling.
For Xun Yu, who was completely cut off from the source of intelligence, he couldn't make a timely response at all, even if he guessed some clues through Zhang Liao's military transfer, but in the face of the ballista of the imperial army, he couldn't even protect himself, let alone prevent it, and the entire Xiapi was quickly swallowed up by Zhang Liao little by little.
On the third day of the siege of the imperial army, the night.
Xun Yu, who was dealing with government affairs in the government office, suddenly heard a shout of killing, his face changed slightly, and he hurriedly got up and walked out, and saw Cao Xiu stumbling and rushing in covered in blood.
"What's going on" Xun Yu hurriedly supported Cao Xiu and said sharply.
"Sir, Mi Zhu is reversed" Cao Xiu said astringently: "Just now Mi Zhu suddenly opened the city gate, the north gate soldiers all surrendered, and the imperial army has entered the city. ” "Go and protect your wife and sons."
Xun Yu sighed, there was no big surprise, for the arrival of this day, he had already prepared, to be able to support three days under the ballista of the imperial army, he already felt that it was a miracle, now it seems that it is not that the other party does not want to break the city, but that people do not want to damage too much.
The lord and the minister have done their best Looking at the surging firelight in the distance, a large number of footsteps are killing this side, although only a city wall is broken, but Xun Yu has no intention of breaking through, this time the imperial army besieging the city, there are 170,000 people, he believes that if it really breaks through, waiting for them, the endless army of soldiers and soldiers.
Sighed silently, returned to the palace, took the sword off the wall, pulled out the blade, carefully wiped it for a while, put the sword around his neck, he spent his whole life wandering, that feeling of hesitation, made him feel extremely tormented, between his family and country, he didn't know which side to favor, now, maybe such an ending is also a relief for him, and it can be regarded as a complete loyalty to Cao Cao.
"Ding" Just as Xun Yu was about to kill himself with a horizontal sword, he saw a cluster of arrows shoot out, knocking down the sword in his hand.
Xun Yu looked up, and saw a general get off the horse, his eagle-like eyes fell on Xun Yu's face, and he took two steps forward and bowed and said, "But Mr.
Xun Yu Xun Wenruo" Xun Yu took a deep breath: "It's here, I don't know what General Zhang is here."
The person who came, it was Zhang Liao, after breaking the city, he handed over the command to Zhang He, and he took his personal guards all the way here, and he had already learned Xun Yu's location from Mi Zhu.
More than a dozen guards from the government came in and surrounded Zhang Liao, but Zhang Liao didn't even look at it, looked at the sword on the ground, shook his head and said, "Why should Mr. kill himself?"
Xun Yu frowned and looked at Zhang Liao, and said with a wry smile: "I can't turn things around, I live up to the trust of the lord, and I deserve to die to apologize." ” When Zhang Liao heard this, he was in awe, no matter what, a person who can still think of loyalty at this time is worthy of admiration, and he arched his hand and said: "I'm sorry, sir, there will be a military order in the end, on the day the city is broken, if Xun Wen must be captured alive, this is His Majesty's personal entrustment, I'm afraid I can't let Mr. get his wish." ” Saying that, he stepped forward to take someone, and when the surrounding Cao soldiers saw this, the tiger roared and rushed up to stop it, but they were killed by the guards who rushed in later.
Zhang Liao came to Xun Yu's side, and saw that a guard wanted to step forward to tie up, but Zhang Liao waved back, and arched his hand: "Mr. is a master, and the general doesn't want to tie him with ropes." ” "Your Majesty" Xun Yu's eyes were a little complicated, he looked at Zhang Liao, and said, "It's bothering the general." ” In the spring of the eleventh year of Hanxing, Zhang Liaobing besieged Xiapi, besieged the city for three days, Xiapi City was broken, Zhang Liao captured Xun Yu, Chen Qi and a group of Cao Jun's ministers and Cao Cao's family, waved his army to the south, one month, swept Haixi, Guangling and other places, the soldiers arrived, the counties looked at the wind and fell, in the same month, Xu Shu designed in Runan, Cheng Pu, Yu An Fengsheng captured Cheng Pu, Runan was broken, Cheng Puning died and did not surrender, and died in front of the army, Xu Shu took advantage of the situation to attack the Lujiang River, Lujiang Lu took the opportunity to rebel, incited the people to open the city gate, Anhui County was lost, Han Dang was embarrassed and led the army to flee back to Jiangdong.
So far, all the areas north of the Yangtze River have been recovered by the imperial court, Zhang Liao led the army to force the Tanglin Pavilion, and Xu Shu led the troops to camp in the area of Juchao and Linhu, set up a beacon tower, and looked at the east of the river across the river.
When the news reached Dantu, Cao Cao sat on the chair dejectedly, he had not fully negotiated with Sun Quan and Zhou Yu, and Xuzhou had already fallen.
He did not suspect that Xun Yu betrayed him, with his understanding of Xun Yu, unless he was defeated first, Xun Yu would never surrender, which could only prove that the imperial court was too strong, so strong that they didn't even have time to prepare.
"Now, with the soldiers and horses stationed by the Son of Heaven in Jiangxia, this time the imperial court has used 200,000 troops, and now our army and Sun Quan are only 70,000 combined, and most of the officers and soldiers in the army are from Xuzhou, Yanzhou, and Yuzhou, and the military spirit has begun to be chaotic."
In the barracks, Cheng Yu looked at Cao Cao bitterly, Rao is his wisdom is good, and in the face of this situation at this moment, he also has a feeling of powerlessness.
Cao Cao threw the letter in his hand on the table, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I have not been able to make a decision, but now Your Majesty has made a decision for me." ” After the imperial court defeated Yuan Shao and annexed Jizhou, Youzhou and Qingzhou, Cao Cao had the heart to surrender, but unfortunately, the family faction headed by Chen Qi under his command was resolutely opposed, and the generals in the army also refused to do so, and now Xuzhou and Yanzhou were occupied by the imperial court in such a short period of time, and now there is no need to think about it anymore.
"That" Cheng Yu looked at Cao Cao: "The matter of joining forces with Sun Quan" "Tell Sun Quan, prepare for war" Cao Cao snorted coldly, if it weren't for Sun Quan's inch-in-depth and unwilling to give in, even if he lost, he would not have been defeated so completely.
"Huh" Cheng Yu bowed his hand and didn't say anything more. t1706231537:
