Chapter 93 I Said It Already! Thanks to God!(2/2)
The next day.
After Cao Cao woke up, he had sobered up a lot. He looked at the person next to him and took a closer look. It was Mr. Zou. After a brief blank moment, he recalled everything that happened during the night.
It was an endless aftertaste for a while.
His movement immediately alarmed Ms. Zou, who could not help but tremble. Then she quickly stood up, not daring to look at Cao Cao, and hid at the end of the bed.
"Haha, there is no need to panic," Cao Cao stood up, dressed, walked out of the door slowly, turned around and said to Zou, "Just wait for me in the house. In the past few days, the troops and horses have gradually changed their defenses, so there will be no problem."
, and Xiu'er won't blame you."
"It's not a good thing to take care of his aunt."
"It can be regarded as living up to Zhang Xiu's trust, right?"
"It all depends on... the general's order!!" Zou's eyes suddenly filled with tears. Knowing that her fate was irreversible, she lowered her head slumped, not daring to resist any more.
When Cao Cao came out of the government office and saw Zhang Xiu again, he found that he was doing everything as usual, chatting and laughing, and clearly explained the fortified locations in various parts of Wancheng.
For a whole morning, the two of them discussed the matter of deploying and changing defenses, without even mentioning the incident with their aunt last night.
Cao Cao even thought that Zhang Xiu didn't know about it, but later he deliberately mentioned it in a casual manner, but Zhang Xiu was stunned at first, and then also had no reaction.
In an instant, Cao Cao understood.
This young man had known about it for a long time, but he didn't take it to heart. This meant that his previous worries were unnecessary. Zhang Xiu didn't care at all. Maybe, because of his aunt, the relationship could be further improved.
So during these three days, Cao Cao played and sang every night.
He forgot all about sleep and food, and almost never went out.
On the night of the last day of the defense change, Zhang Xiu sent Hu Che'er, who often talked with Dian Wei, to his residence to steal his double halberds.
Then while he was on duty outside, the general sent an order to the eastern barracks and opened the east gate.
So not long after, Cao Chun, who had been guarding the hills on the east slope for several days, finally heard something.
“It’s coming, it’s really coming!!”
"This kid really wants to rebel!"
Cao Chun stood up slightly and looked into the distance. Although they were far away, he could see the cavalry and infantry gathering in the camp.
He also prepared armaments and torches and marched at night.
With such a situation, a sneak attack was inevitable. Looking at the marching direction of the leading sentry, it was almost without thinking that they were heading towards the city.
"General, we've been waiting for you!"
"What exactly happened in Wancheng?!"
"I don't know, I don't know!"
"But I'm sure that Bowen's prediction is correct. I will indeed be rewarded. He must immediately gather his troops and prepare to charge for rescue. As soon as he sees the secret advance of Zhang Xiu's troops, he will send troops immediately!"
"Here!!"
Several lieutenants agreed in a low voice and immediately turned around to deliver the order. The stench was almost suffocating from staying in the col these past few days.
The rations are basically exhausted. If there is no movement, they will really be defeated.
Of course, if you go back like this, you won't be blamed, you will just be laughed at.
It's better now, I can really take credit, Bowen didn't lie to me!!
…
Within the city.
In the middle of the night, Cao Cao just took a hot bath and fell asleep in comfort.
It's time to sleep peacefully.
Dian Wei kicked open the door, entered the room and ran towards Cao Cao.
"What's Dianwei doing!?"
Cao Cao turned over and stood up with his sword, sweating profusely!
I thought I was having a nightmare. How could a man as observant as Dian Wei suddenly break into the house?
At this moment, my soul was almost shocked.
Dian Wei said angrily: "Lord, hurry up! There is a chaos in the city. Zhang Xiu's troops have made a mess. Several of our Suwei captains have been killed. We are now resisting at the main gate!"
"Oh, I'm being taken away by you!"
"No need!"
Cao Cao's eyes widened suddenly, and doubts arose in his heart. He immediately held the sword in his hand, then put on his thick shoes and followed Dian Wei, and quickly went out.
As soon as we arrived at the gate of the mansion, we heard shouts of killing.
Cao Cao was sweating profusely, feeling uneasy, and his heart was about to jump into his throat.
Leaving the city, the only way to survive is to leave the city, but you still need the war horses to reach the Feishui military camp. At this time, the war horses are not around, but where to find them?!
The situation is critical!!
"Come on, my lord, go straight to the front door!"
Dian Wei took Cao Cao and asked the guards to form a human wall on both sides. He walked out of the side gate and headed towards the city gate, not daring to enter the east gate. As soon as he left the government office, there were many soldiers and horses of Zhang Xiu on both sides of the street.
When they saw Cao Cao's figure, they immediately attacked him.
In the chaos, Dian Wei directly hacked to death Zhang Xiu's soldiers and horses who rushed in front of him, and his clothes were dyed red with blood.
Only then did Cao Cao realize that he was holding an ordinary iron sword instead of the double halberds he had taken advantage of. Seeing this scene, he had to admit that he had been tricked.
"Thief Cao! You insulted my aunt, how could I, Zhang Xiu, suffer such humiliation!! Thief Cao must be killed tonight!!"
"Xiu Ben sincerely surrenders, but he is insulted like this. A man will never live in peace. Even if his whole family dies today, he will not hesitate to die with the thieves!"
Cao Cao looked back and saw Zhang Xiu chasing after him in the distance. He was greatly flustered and even a little desperate...
At this moment, there is Dian Wei blocking the guards in front of him, and there are only a hundred guards around him.
What to do.
At this time, Yu Jin received Cao Chun's military order in Feishui and immediately led his troops.
He also strictly ordered the soldiers and horses not to be moved, and rushed straight to the main gate without any hesitation. This order was given by Cao Chun, and Cao Cao's army did not move.
Only Yu Jin led the army under strict orders, and all his soldiers and horses were willing to follow, so more than 8,000 people followed and rushed out.
Cao Chun's tiger and leopard cavalry had already invaded Zhang Xiu's eastern camp, and began to set fire to the camp and attack the camp in chaos, making it impossible for the troops to go to the reinforcements.
…
In this way, almost half an hour later, Cao Cao, guarded by Dian Wei and others, fled all the way to the gate. Fortunately, at the gate, Zhang Xiu had no time to lay an ambush and could slowly withdraw from the city.
But there was no war horse.
"Where is the shadow?!" Cao Cao turned around and shouted. At this time, his back was cold, he was dripping with cold sweat, and his brain was almost losing his mind.
After assassinating Dong Zhao and escaping from Luoyang, he had never been so panicked.
"Jueying is still in the city!"
One of the guards shouted. At this time, there were not enough war horses, and it was even more difficult to run outside the city.
There are many alleys in the city, and you can rely on human walls to block them and run for your life, but outside there are mostly plains, how can you get there without horses.
"Father, mount your horse quickly!"
Cao Ang immediately dismounted and gave his and Anmin's horses to Cao Cao. At this moment, Cao Anmin's face was red and swollen, as if he had been slapped.
He was also trembling with fear and in shock.
I don't know how many people he knew died in the city, and he didn't understand. If he hadn't tried to flatter him at that time, would he not have caused such a chaos?
