Chapter 419 Retreat

Guo Jia's words received no response. Just kidding, can such a major thing be decided in a short while? Even if it can be decided, the most important thing is that Tao Qian is here now. Do they dare to discuss it blatantly in front of Tao Qian? You must know that surrender means that Tao Qian will die!

If there weren't such a huge restriction, then I would probably have decided to surrender immediately.

"I said, why are you guys not brave enough? If it were me, I would tie Tao Qian up immediately. This is definitely a great achievement!" Guo Jia continued to speak sarcastic words below.

"And Tao Qian, you are the same. Any smart person, you probably can see that the overall situation is decided at this time. Why should you persist? Do you really want to die so ugly? If I were you, you would go down and surrender at this time. Although it is impossible to escape death, one is to let your subordinates not have to bear the name of betrayal, and you will definitely be grateful to you in your heart for the rest of your life; the other is to benefit all the people in Xuzhou. Although you are not the one who benefited them directly, the people will definitely remember you, such a great person; the third is that such a heroic act can be considered to have died beautifully. Maybe you, Tao Qian, can still leave your reputation for eternity. Since ancient times, no one has died, but he will leave his loyalty to shine in history!"

How long has it been? How long has it been? Guo Jia did not copy other people's poems anymore. But at this moment, Guo Jia still couldn't help but be excited. He said that he was so excited.

"Cough cough, cough cough!" Guo Jia's words broke through Tao Qian's psychological defense line in an instant. Tao Qian's body was already not good during this period, and now he almost vomited blood.

To be honest, Tao Qian was disheartened and a little impulsive at this time, and he really wanted to jump off the city gate directly! Only pain is left to live. What's the point of living?

"Master, are you okay?!"

"Mr. Tao, take care of your health!"

The next to him quickly supported Tao Qian, and at this moment, he suddenly rode a fast horse and rushed from Cao's camp behind to Guo Jia's place. This kind of thing was obviously noticed immediately.

Could it be that Cao Cao was going to issue some new order? Many people subconsciously thought about it.

Only Guo Jia breathed a sigh of relief, and finally came. The timing was pretty good. To be honest, Guo Jia was actually afraid that the other side would surrender! Just kidding, how could that kind of condition be realistic? If they really had to stay still for five years, it would be better not to take Xuzhou for the time being and come back next time.

Moreover, Guo Jia's purpose this time was to make Tao Qian, especially Liu Bei, uncomfortable for a period of time in the future, and Guo Jia never really planned to surrender directly. Otherwise, Guo Jia would not have deliberately let Tao Qian go. Only Tao Qian was standing there, so the people in Xia Pi City could not surrender immediately. Because Tao Qian still has at least one card to play. That is, he also agreed to the same and even better conditions as Guo Jia. Since many people have been persisting until now, they may continue to persevere.

However, the gossip is almost done. If Guo Jia continues to wait here at this time, the atmosphere will be a little awkward. Therefore, this quick-ratio is still timely. Guo Jia can finally step down.

When Guo Jia received the message, his face suddenly changed. He got off the platform directly, said nothing, and rode his horse to the camp behind. Then, in the stunned eyes of everyone, everyone else retreated, and even the platform that came was left in place.

"What happened?"

"Cao Cao died suddenly, right?"

"Haha, I really hope that. But it's obviously not realistic."

"If Cao Cao suddenly fell ill or something, there would be such a possibility."

Everyone started to guess for a moment, because there was a full month limit, no matter what decision they made, they were not in a hurry now.

There is a problem! There is a problem!

It was not until this moment that Chen Deng could truly calm down and think about today's affairs. Although Chen Deng didn't know where there was a problem, he always felt that there seemed to be problems everywhere!

For example, the conditions that Guo Jia said were really too tempting, too tempting! The key is that this is not in line with the current situation at all! If the two sides are evenly matched, or Guo Jia has a slightly advantage, then it is quite good to propose such conditions. But now he has an absolute advantage, and it is not normal for Cao Cao to propose such attractive conditions. Is there really a waste of pie in the world?

Also, it was obviously just a surrender of Xia Pi City, but the entire Xuzhou was involved in the conditions! The financial resources Cao Cao spent to give high officials that cannot be rejected by the people in Xia Pi City today, and the amount of money he spent is absolutely impossible to compare with the tax revenue of Xuzhou in a few years! So, even though he could obviously minimize the losses, why did Cao Cao benefit the entire Xuzhou? Is Cao Cao a saint? Why did he feel like he was deliberately cutting off his own way out!

But even though he had such doubts, Chen Deng could not understand what was wrong. As Guo Jia said, Cao Cao could not deceive the world on this issue. Since all the conditions are true and credible, there is no reason to doubt Cao Cao!

For a time, no one cared about whether there was a traitor.

Everyone at the scene stayed there for the time being and did not leave because they wanted to know what was going on in Cao's camp, so that Guo Jia could rush back in a hurry.

As a result, after waiting for a while, one person and one riding, he sent a letter over.

When I took the letter, I kept everyone in place. The letter said the conditions previously proposed, without any change, but the most noticeable time limit was the time limit. It was obviously one month before, but Guo Jia deliberately emphasized that it would not be enough to exceed one day. But now, it actually says one year?!

How is that possible! You can't write it wrong! You should know that Guo Jia had previously analyzed that the food in Xia Pi City could only last for two months, so is there any meaning in this year? Can they still hold on for one year while hungry?

Guo Jia must have written this wrong, right! Should I send someone to reply to a letter and remind him?

But soon, Tao Qian and others knew what was going on. It seemed that Guo Jia did not write it wrong, because Cao Cao actually started to withdraw his troops!

Cao Cao withdrew his troops and Xia Pi is no longer surrounded. It is naturally no problem to hold on for just one year!

What's wrong? Why did Cao Cao suddenly withdrew his troops?

Such doubts were quickly resolved because of the precise news that Chen Gong and Zhang Miao betrayed within Yanzhou and led Lv Bu into Yanzhou. The situation is now critical and Yanzhou is almost completely lost, so Cao Cao had to return to his army to rescue.
