The pursuit of time has begun. In order to survive and preserve strength as much as possible, the Cao army's army, from Boss Cao to ordinary soldiers, ran wildly, running wildly, and running so hard that they were already out of breath and dared not stop.

In order to reduce the burden and speed up, Cao's army abandoned all the baggage, threw down the seriously injured people who had difficulty in operating, took off the heavy armor on their bodies, and countless soldiers threw down the weapons and flags in their hands, fled.

It's all over the mountains.

In order to eliminate the enemy's vitality in the wild as much as possible and reduce the pressure of the next siege, the Xuzhou army, from Deputy Director Tao to ordinary soldiers, rushed to chase after him. They caught Cao's soldiers without saying a word and slashed them away with one knife.

He slashed away with one shot, and turned a blind eye to the wounded Cao army lying on the ground and the Cao army's baggage everywhere. He kept chasing Cao army soldiers who could run.

The Changfeng team, which had heavy casualties, was ordered by Jia Lao Poison to return to the camp for rest. The three thousand new forces guarding the camp went out to pursue. Jia Lao Poison also gave a death order to Fu Yang, a veteran Xuzhou general who led this new force.

Arriving in Xuchang at all costs before Cao's army, blocking the north gate of Xuchang, which is most convenient for Cao's army to return to the city! If there is any mistake, even if Fu Yang is a veteran Xuzhou left by Tao Qian to Deputy Director Tao, Jia Lao's poisonous substance will still ask Deputy Director Tao

The military ruled the crime! However, Fu Yang sneered and told Jia Lao poison, "There is no need for a military advisor to explain. Although I am incompetent, I am also an eyewitness of the Si Shui War. If I missed this opportunity to avenge hundreds of thousands of Xuzhou soldiers and civilians, I will be in the future

Even if you die, you will have no shame to meet the soldiers who died in battle back then!"

The full-strength Xuzhou new forces quickly rushed to the forefront of the pursuit battle. They did not kill people or stand all the way but just moved forward desperately, gradually crossing the chaotic battlefield. Tao Cao's main team, which consumed a lot of physical strength in the fierce battle, was panting and fleeing and chasing.

, It was completely mixed together, you and I have you in the team, fighting and moving forward desperately, the Xuzhou army wanted to rush forward to intercept and block the return of Cao's army, while Cao's army wanted to be in Xuzhou

The army blocked the way and fled back to Xuchang City to survive. Tens of thousands of people on both sides were like a collective 5,000-meter race, and they all wanted to arrive at the end of Xuchang City, a bet-for-life race.

It was not that Cao had considered arranging the army behind the palace, and it was not that Deputy Director Tao had thought of letting the Gentleman Army block the attack at any cost, but the terrain in Xuchang was too wide. The Cao army behind the palace could not stop all the pursuers. The troops were weak.

The Gentleman Army could not stop Cao's army from retreating. So Boss Cao could only order the army to withdraw from Xuchang City at full speed, and Deputy Director Tao could only order the army to fight to Xuchang City at full speed, blocking the road to return to the city of Cao's army. And they all chose

The army was encouraged to move at full speed, which resulted in the Dayuan Liang horse under Lao Da’s crotch being almost killed by the horse whip, and the Mongolian horse under Deputy Director Tao was almost kicked by Deputy Director Tao.

Because the terrain was too wide, the pursuit was only five or six miles long, and the entire battlefield was completely in chaos. Cao's army fled all over the mountains, soldiers could not find the generals, generals could not find the soldiers, and the army was defeated like a collapse of rivers.

The Xuzhou army was completely in chaos. Deputy Director Tao was just three or four hundred people left, and the remaining troops were all doing their own things, either chasing and killing Cao's soldiers, or searching for Boss Cao himself to find Li

When he was given a great opportunity to achieve great achievements or to strode forward to block the city gates and roads, Deputy Director Tao once tried to reorganize the team, but the messengers sent out could not even find the target.

In terms of time, Deputy Director Tao is not allowed to re-election. The battlefield of the decisive battle is only ten miles away from Xuchang City. The terrain is still very open and flat, so it is very easy to move. Even if you walk slowly, you can easily finish it within half an hour.

During this ten miles, the Xuzhou army reorganized the team without a moment. A little waste of time may cause irreparable losses. Therefore, Deputy Director Tao simply gave up the plan to reorganize the team and led the only three or four around him.

The hundred soldiers just ran and chased each other, constantly passing the Cao army, which was slowing down due to exhaustion of physical strength, and rushed towards Xuchang with red eyes.

In this way, Cao's army naturally had countless opportunities to turn defeat into victory. Even if a team of five or six hundred people woke up, a collective charge could disperse the team around Deputy Director Tao and then create a capture of the thief.

The miracle of capturing the king first and killing Deputy Director Tao, the culprit. But unfortunately, Deputy Director Tao, who was able to steal the sword of Yitian, seemed to inherit the good luck of Boss Cao on the battlefield. Cao Jun, who was extremely panicked

None of the team thought of doing this. Even Dian Wei, when Deputy Director Tao's coaching flag appeared on the flank of Dian Wei's team, General Dian Wei, who had at least 300 soldiers beside him, did not even think of attacking Tao.

The deputy director's guard was just looking for the whereabouts of Boss Cao in the chaos, wanting to protect Boss Cao, who is unknown now.

Xuchang's towering city wall was finally in sight. What made Deputy Director Tao overjoyed was that although the brigade of Cao's army had fled to the north gate moat, the three thousand new forces led by Xuzhou veteran Fu Yang had also reached the moat and blocked them.

The road to entering the city by Cao's defeated soldiers was scared that Xun Yu and Ren Jun who were left behind in Xuchang did not even dare to open the city gate. They just shouted and asked the defeated soldiers to detour to other city gates to return to the city. Xuchang City was already full of old and weak soldiers. If the city was opened,

The gate allowed the Xuzhou new troops to enter the city, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

Seeing this, Deputy Director Tao didn't even bother to take a breath. He immediately grabbed a guard riding a horse and shouted with red eyes: "Go and pass the order, whether it is Taishi Ci, Xu Chu or Wei Yan, when you see them

The order was sent to them to take all the organized troops to block the other three gates in Xuchang!"

The guards rode away, and Deputy Director Tao quickly gathered the team, ordered the soldiers to hold up their flags, and sent people to call the surrounding Xuzhou team to move closer to him. Soon, three or four thousand gathered around Deputy Director Tao.

Deputy Director Tao didn't care about who these teams were. He held the sword of Yitian traitor and pointed at the defeated brigade of Cao's army and just shouted, "Soldiers, fight bravely to kill the enemy and avenge the compatriots in Xuzhou seven years ago! Kill me

!”

"Kill!" shouted at the top of his lungs. Deputy Director Tao once again led the army to launch a charge. He led the team around him directly to the team with the largest defeated soldiers in Cao's army. The Cao army had long been out of control, and his morale was collapsed.

I dare not resist the crazy impact of the Xuzhou army. I kept running around and searching for a way back to the city. I pushed and shoved each other and ran through the dead and ran away. The Xuzhou army took the opportunity to kill and stab and slaughter the lives of Cao's soldiers.

.

Some Cao army soldiers also fought stubbornly. Several grassroots generals of Cao army tried to organize teams to fight back. However, these Cao army soldiers who fought stubbornly were soon completely submerged by the Xuzhou team that was coming like a tide. The Cao army generals finally organized more than a dozen times.

The ten people were either destroyed by the Xuzhou army or were dispersed by their own defeated soldiers. The defeat was like a mountain. Not to mention these ordinary grassroots generals of the Cao army, even the boss Cao could no longer restrain the defeated soldiers here.

The dense Xuzhou team drove straight in, scattering the defeated Cao's army like chopping melons and vegetables, and was unstoppable. Wherever they went, there were all a sea of ​​corpses and blood, wreckage, and broken limbs. Countless Cao's soldiers were buried in Xuzhou.

Under the swords and guns of the army, countless desperate Cao soldiers put down their weapons and knelt on the ground and shouted for surrender. After receiving their reminder, Deputy Director Tao, who was red-eyed, finally remembered that there was a trick to surrender, and quickly ordered the team to shout.

The slogan of surrendering but not killing also arranged a team of about five or six hundred people to be specially responsible for collecting prisoners.

This day was definitely the most unlucky day in history for Boss Cao. It would be fine if the team, which still had hope of recovery, was crazily massacred by the Xuzhou army. Finally, they escaped to Xuchang City, but they missed the opportunity to return to the city because they wanted to organize the team to miss the opportunity to return to the city and were quickly killed because they wanted to organize the team's rear guard.

When the arrival of Xuzhou's new force blocked the north gate and was forced to move to the east gate, the Gentleman Army, the most powerful in the Xuzhou army, had already guarded the east gate of Xuchang. When he saw the boss Cao's flag, he felt like he was bleeding from chickens.

As he rushed up, forcing Boss Cao to run around Xuchang City for half a circle, and then he ran to the south gate before he could barely enter the city. However, when Boss Cao fled into Xuchang City with hundreds of defeated generals, Wei Yan led a part of Danyang

The rogue soldiers had also chased the city at the South Gate of Xuchang, blocking the entrance to the South Gate of Xuchang, forcing the Xuchang defenders to close the city gate immediately. Countless Cao soldiers who had no time to return to the city were blocked outside the city and allowed Wei Yan's team to massacre.

There was no way up to heaven and no door down to earth. The shrill crying sounded across the city of Xuchang. Boss Cao was crying like rain in the city, but he was helpless.

The same is true for the west gate of Xuchang. When Taishi Ci led his army to block the west gate of Xuchang, Cao's soldiers who had not entered the city completely lost their last hope of entering the city. The desperate people beat their chests and cried, the shaken people kneeled down to surrender, and those who did not want to surrender scattered.

Escape, trying to get rid of the pursuit of Xuzhou army first, and then find a way to return to the city and return to the warm embrace of Cao. Some brave men also attacked the Xuzhou army that blocked the road, but they were all shaking trees, and were basically all

The Xuzhou soldiers with red eyes cut into pieces and even if they rushed to the moat, the Xuchang defenders did not dare to open the city gate.

Under despair and pain, the Cao army in Xuchang City was crying in a row. The eldest son Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, Cao Zhi and others hugged his head and cried bitterly, constantly blaming himself, "I'm the one who hurt me."

All the soldiers, I was the one who harmed all the soldiers. If I hadn’t insisted on taking a gamble, how could this be today? How could this be today?!”

Deputy Director Tao was not relaxed outside the city. Although he had issued an order to accept surrender, there were still many elite Cao army loyal to Boss Cao who refused to surrender. With the hope of breaking through, these Cao army with more than 1,000 people were unwilling to surrender.

The loyal and brave soldiers chose to fight to the ground and spontaneously formed round formations of different sizes to resist stubbornly. No matter how the Xuzhou army called for surrender, they were unwavering and killed many Xuzhou soldiers who came forward to surrender, forcing Xuzhou.

The army can only choose to attack with all its might and use swords, guns, and crossbows to solve these stubborn enemies.

The Cao army's round formation was dispersed by the Xuzhou army. One by one, the Cao army soldiers who were already covered in blood and were still fighting endlessly fell in front of the Xuzhou army. However, these Cao army soldiers were still resisting and surrendering, fighting until they were all their own.

The head fell to the ground and the blood was flowing. It fell slowly and used blood and life to shape invisible monuments. The tragic military singing also echoed among these Cao's army surrounded by heavy forces.

"The vast sea, kiss my home. The rolling dust is lingering in my garden. The bright world is bright and the man is passionate! The vast sky, bless my great man! The vast sky, bless my prime minister! The vast sky, bless me forever! The vast sky,

Bless me forever victory! A bright world, a man’s blood! A vast sky. Bless me of the great man! A vast sky, bless me of the prime minister! A vast sky, bless me of the great victory! A vast sky, bless me of the great victory!”

Seeing such a team and hearing such a tragic military song, Deputy Director Tao was moved and could not help but secretly glad that he had made his tactics and lured Cao's army out of Xuchang at any cost. Otherwise, the Xuzhou army would be even more elite.

It would be difficult to break through the cities guarded by these troops at all costs.

The soldiers of Xuzhou were also moved and finally understood why hundreds of thousands of Jizhou troops were killed by the Cao army of only tens of thousands of times and repeatedly defeated. At the same time, the soldiers of Xuzhou were extremely proud. After all, they defeated these enemies and defeated these

Although the methods of respectable and admirable enemies are somewhat unlucky, the timing of attack is even more despicable. However, being able to defeat such a strong and tenacious enemy head-on on the battlefield is enough to make every Xuzhou soldier proud of it.

The boss Cao on the city wall was in a complicated mood. He was proud of his loyal and brave soldiers, and also shed tears for the tragic sacrifice of these loyal and brave soldiers. He cried until he couldn't cry. Suddenly, the boss Cao suddenly stopped crying and grabbed another handful of them.

The famous guard ordered: "You, attack the white flag city, go to the surrounding soldiers of our army to send orders, and order them to put down their weapons and surrender! That is my order, and order them to surrender!"

"Prime Minister!" The guard cried, but Boss Cao shouted: "This is an order, those who violate the order will be killed!"

The guard cried and sang a promise. He beat a white flag and asked his companions to put himself down the city wall with a hanging basket. Then he walked to the Xuzhou army to negotiate. Although Fu Yang, who was guarding the city gate, did not dare to make a decision, he immediately sent someone to take the old David Cao.

He was taken to Deputy Director Tao and asked Deputy Director Tao to decide whether to allow Old Master Cao to pass the order in front of the formation.

When the guards sent by Boss Cao met Deputy Director Tao, Deputy Director Tao sat on the ground resting without grace, with blood stains on his face that were not only splashed. After listening to the guard's request, Deputy Director Tao was very

He laughed heartlessly, "Sent orders to surrender? Is it to inspire your team to resist stubbornly? If those stubborn elements were willing to surrender, they would have surrendered long ago? Then he would not bear it when he heard his orders to surrender again.

To the last soldier?"

Hearing Deputy Director Tao's words of humiliation, the guards sent by Boss Cao suddenly turned pale and clenched their fists. Deputy Director Tao shouted: "Get back and tell Cao thief, just say I won't be fooled, my troops

We still have to stay in the siege, so that our soldiers will not be bitten by these turtles and dogs in jails and jump into the wall for nothing!”

The guard of the eldest son Cao looked dark and he was about to leave, but at this moment, the voice of Jia Lao's poison came from behind Deputy Director Tao, shouting: "Slow down, you can tell Cao Mengde, just say me

The army can let go of these surrounded warriors, but our army has one condition, that is, Cao Cao immediately leads his army to leave Xuchang, and our army promises not to chase and kill!"

The Cao army guards widened their eyes, and Deputy Director Tao also widened their eyes. The old poisonous creature who was coming quickly turned over and dismounted, and quickly walked to Deputy Director Tao and said, "Lord, Xu knows that you don't want to let the tiger go back to the mountain, but

Xu now wants to ask you a question: If our army breaks through Xuchang and kills Cao Cao at this time, can our army quickly annex the land and city controlled by Cao's army?"

"No." Deputy Director Tao admitted honestly.

"Yes, our army's front line is too long and its troops are in short supply. It is difficult to swallow such a vast land and city. Liang Chen still has some hope, and Runan is very reluctant." Jia Lao Poison analyzed the enemy situation abnormally and then asked:

"Then, lord, who will get the place like Guanzhong, Sili, Runan and Nanyang after our army killed Cao Cao?"

"My father-in-law, Liu Biao, Ma Teng." Deputy Director Tao replied without thinking.

"Since that's the case, why do you need to make wedding dresses for others?" asked Lao Jia poisonous creature.

Deputy Director Tao was a little puzzled, not knowing what medicine Jia Lao Poisonous Gourd sells in the gourd, but Jia Lao Poisonous Gourd said: "If the lord doesn't want to make wedding dresses for others, then you should hurry up and reconcile with Cao Mengde. The news I just received is that the lord's

The father-in-law, Benchu, had already returned to Guandu, and quickly seized the Guandu Pass, which was guarded by the old and weak. As early as two days, three to four days later, you can reach Xuchang in the first two days."

"So Xu believes that the lord should give Meng Degong a chance, first order the suspension of encirclement and suppression of the remnants of Cao's army that refused to surrender, and then negotiate in public with Meng Degong. As long as Meng Degong agrees to withdraw from Xuchang immediately and return the emperor and the lord's brother to our army, our army can give up

Take a way out and let Cao's army go out of the city, and release these loyal and brave men of the Cao army surrounded by our army. In this way, we can ensure the safety of the emperor and the lord brothers, and also repay the life of Meng Degong in the city of Xuzhou.

”

As he said that, Jia Lao's poisonous substance, who turned his back to Lao David, gave a wink. Deputy Director Tao immediately understood and pretended to hesitate, and immediately made a decision: "Mr. Wenhe is right, we cannot suffer from others' hardships and sufferings.

I'm going to give me an order to immediately suspend the attack on the remaining troops of Cao thieves. I'll send someone to tell the stubborn troops of Cao thieves. I'll say that I'm negotiating with Cao thieves. As long as they don't play tricks, our army will not attack before the negotiations are over.
To be continued...
