Within half a month, Zhao Yun commanded his army to capture Julu County, Changshan County, and Guangping County, and invaded Youzhou.
When the news came out, it immediately caused an uproar.
For a time, the people of Wei State were in panic, and all the officials in the counties were in danger.
The first to get the news were Cao Ang and Cao Pi who were in charge of Yecheng, as well as Xun Yu, the chief steward in the rear.
When the three of them learned that Xiahou Dun and Ma Chao had been killed, and that Sima Yi had surrendered, they were all dumbfounded.
Even Xun Yu, a man whose face remained unchanged despite the collapse of Mount Tai, felt that the sky was about to collapse.
Prince's Mansion, in the hall.
Cao Ang sat on the main seat, with Xun Yu sitting on his left and Cao Pi sitting on his right.
Cao Ang looked at Xun Yu and said: "Master Xun, the governor of Xiahou was killed, a hundred thousand troops were defeated, Jizhou and Youzhou lost their barrier to resist, and were in danger.
Is there any way Master Xun can stabilize the situation and stop the Shu army?"
Xun Yu shook his head and said helplessly: "Reporting to His Majesty the Crown Prince, the top priority is to stabilize the situation and let the governors of each county guard and defend the remaining territory of Jizhou.
As for the strategy to defeat the enemy, Xun Yu can't think of a way to defeat the enemy."
Cao Ang sighed, feeling deeply powerless.
Cao Pi said: "The news has just come, and my father doesn't know yet.
Whether he will send someone to inform him or not?"
Cao Ang said: "It is impossible to hide the defeat.
Sooner or later, my father will get the news.
The sooner you pass the news to your father, you can prepare in advance and think of a response strategy.
However, Jizhou is in danger now, and we must come up with something Countermeasures, otherwise the country will fall."
Cao Pi rolled his eyes and said, "I have a plan to delay the Shu army's attack."
Cao Ang hurriedly asked: "What can my second brother do?"
Xun Yu also looked at Cao Pi curiously, showing an expectant look.
Cao Pi said in a deep voice: "The only way to hold back the Shu army is through one's own strength and external strength.
Xiahou Dun and Ma Chao were defeated and killed, and Sima Yi chose to surrender.
The country lost the power to resist and had no soldiers to go to.
Resist.
Therefore, only by relying on external resistance can the Shu army's attack be delayed.
Xun Yu and Cao Ang looked at each other and immediately understood what Cao Pi was thinking.
In fact, Cao Pi proposed a method to delay the Shu army very early, but Cao Ang refused and did not implement it.
Cao Pi continued: "The Shu army occupied Yongzhou, Bingzhou, and even took parts of Youzhou and Jizhou, bordering the foreign tribes in the north.
In this case, people can be sent north to lobby the Xianbei, Wuhuan, Xiongnu and other northern foreigners.
As long as these foreigners on horseback march south to plunder, the Shu army can temporarily stop the attack, and we can take the opportunity to rest and look for opportunities to counterattack. " Xun Yu retorted: "Second Young Master, this method cannot be used.
Your Majesty will not agree to it."
Cao Ang nodded and said, "Second brother, my father will not agree."
"I know my father won't agree, but is there any choice?"
Cao Pi stood up, his eyes were bright, and he said in a deep voice: "Brother, the Shu army is powerful.
The Shu army is rushing into Jizhou and Youzhou with overwhelming force.
It is about to be conquered by the Shu army.
The capital of the country is about to be conquered.
Can you bear the destruction of the Wei Kingdom?
Father!"
I understand your thoughts, but you have no choice now.
As long as you can defeat the Shu army and win a chance for Wei, you can do anything."
Cao Pi was young, and his young face showed a ruthless look.
Xun Yu frowned and said, "Second Young Master, there are things a man can do and things he shouldn't do."

"fart" Cao Pi became angry and scolded Xun Yu as soon as he opened his mouth.
He didn't care who Xun Yu was.
He walked up to Xun Yu, pointed at Xun Yu, and retorted loudly: "The Kingdom of Wei is destroyed, and you, Xun Yu, can surrender to Wang Can without any loss, and maybe you can be promoted to a noble rank.
But can the Cao family of Wei The country is destroyed, the Cao family is destroyed, and I, the Cao family, are going to be destroyed.
It is simply inexplicable that I care about so many things."
Xun Yu's face turned red and he shouted: "I am loyal to Your Majesty and will live and die with Your Majesty."
Cao Pi added: "In this case, you should agree with my approach."
Cao Pi's impassioned words made Cao Ang hesitate.
Xun Yu sat silently, unable to interrupt.
Cao Ang was silent for a long time and said: "Second brother, I think I will ask my father for instructions first before making a decision."
Cao Pi frowned and said: "Brother, if you want to reject my method, just refuse it directly.
You and I both know what my father is like.
What he hates the most is the foreign races in the north, and the ones he admires the most are Wei Qing and Huo Qubing.
Such people still have the idea of following the example of their ancestors and sweeping away the Huns and other foreign races.
You let the father decide, can the father agree?
Brother, if you don’t have the guts to make the decision, then let me make the decision."
Cao Ang's expression was gloomy and he stared at Cao Pi, as if he wanted to see through Cao Pi's heart.
Cao Pi raised his head and chest, his slightly childish face showing firm determination.
"well" Cao Ang sighed and said, "Well, since you insist on relying on the power of the north, I will immediately send people north to Xianbei and Wuhuan to ask for their support."
Cao Ang sighed softly, knowing that this matter had reached Cao Cao's ears After the middle, it will definitely arouse Cao Cao's dissatisfaction, but he still has to do it.
For the sake of Wei and the Cao family, this has to be done.
Cao Pi added: "Brother, I must participate in this matter.
I will lead people north."
"No," Cao Ang retorted, "You are less than fifteen years old and too young to go north.
If anything happens to you, how will I explain it to my father?"
Cao Pi said firmly: "If you don't let me go, I will go by myself."
Cao Ang scratched his head and felt a headache.
There was nothing he could do to Cao Pi.
In the end, Cao Ang could only nod in agreement.
Cao Pi achieved his goal, saluted Cao Ang, turned around and left the hall.
Xun Yu looked at Cao Ang and said, "Prince, such a big matter must be reported to His Majesty and cannot be hidden."
Cao Ang nodded and said, "I will send someone to deliver the message right away."
Both of them looked solemn and looked worried.
Hulao Pass, Cao Jun camp.
In the main tent of the Chinese army, Cao Cao looked gloomy and said nothing.
Just now, the messenger sent by Cao Ang arrived at the military camp and reported to Cao Cao the war in Bingzhou, and also reported Cao Pi's northward contact with Xianbei, Wuhuan and other foreign tribes.
After reading it, Cao Cao was furious.
When the civil servants and generals in the big tent learned about the war in Bingzhou, they felt a heavy weight in their hearts.
Sima Lang stood up, knelt down with a plop, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Zhongda surrendered to the enemy before the battle.
His crime cannot be forgiven.
As an elder brother, I am also guilty.
Please punish your Majesty."
Although Cao Cao did not blame Sima Yi, Sima Lang knew what Cao Cao was thinking.
There must be something wrong.
If you don't say it, something could easily happen.

So I just brought it up.
Cao Cao said: "Get up, don't mention Zhongda's matter.
Xiahou Dun and Ma Chao were defeated and killed, and the army of 100,000 was destroyed.
Zhongda could not escape, so he had to surrender."
Sima Lang breathed a sigh of relief before returning to the queue.
Cao Cao continued: "What I'm most angry about is that Cao Ang sent Cao Pi north to let the foreign tribes from the north go south.
Although I want to rule the world and defeat Wang Can, I will even use endless means, but I don't bother to use any means.
The power of the foreign tribes in the north.
They are a group of wolves.
If you encounter a wolf, you should beat it hard.
There is no reason to lure the wolf into the house.
Man Chong sent an order to Cao Ang and asked him to send people to recover Cao Pi, otherwise I will deprive him of the throne. ” Man Chong cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's too late when the news reaches Yecheng."
Cao Cao shouted: "No matter how late it is, we have to send people to chase.
Even if we are defeated, we can't rely on the power of the foreign tribes in the north."
"promise" Man Chong responded with clasped fists and immediately went to draw up the order.
Cao Cao looked at the crowd and said: "Cao Ren retreated to Yanzhou, Xiahou Yuan retreated to Qingzhou, and Xiahou Dun's entire army was wiped out.
The Shu army has become overwhelming, and only our army is left.
If you have any ideas, please tell me."
Everyone fell into silence after hearing this. s: The third update is completed;:
