Chapter 1282: Cao Cao, whose scalp is numb, kills Xu You with tears!
hiss!
Cao Cao opened his eyes, trembled all over, and suddenly let out a long breath...
When I woke up from the dream, I was still in shock. There was cold sweat on my forehead and back!
"This dream is too dangerous and weird...could it be Miaocai and Yuan Rang, something really happened..."
Cao Cao had never had such a terrifying dream, and he felt a lingering evil in his heart.
He turned over and sat up, thoughts racing in his mind, but he had a splitting headache. Just as he was putting on his clothes, he heard someone outside the camp shouting: "King Wei, Military Advisor Sima, and Military Advisor Cheng Yu want to see you!"
Sima Yi and Cheng Yu would not disturb Cao Cao's sleep so late.
Cao Cao knew that something big had happened. He was frightened and said, "Come in!"
Not long after, the camp door was opened, and Sima Yi and Cheng Yu walked quickly into the tent, one behind the other, with solemn expressions.
After both of them saluted Cao Cao, both of them had expressions of hesitation to speak.
Cao Cao frowned and said, "Zhongda and Zhongde came here late at night. There must be something urgent. Can you tell us something?"
Sima Yi and Cheng Yu looked at each other, and it was Sima Yi who said: "King Wei, there is a frontline military report from Hejian Kingdom... Please take a look at it, King Wei!"
He took out a princely scroll sealed with oil paper from his sleeve and handed it to Cao Cao respectfully with both hands.
Cao Cao took the scroll and read it up and down. There was a bang in his mind, and his whole body seemed to be hit by thunder!
"How...how...how is this possible!?"
"Sun Quan withdrew his troops before the battle, resulting in a great defeat in Hejian... Yuan Rang (Xiahou Dun's cousin) disappeared without a trace!?"
The urgent military report from Hejian Kingdom made Cao Cao's scalp numb!
Even Sima Yi and Cheng Yu lowered their heads with heavy expressions on their faces.
Everyone was deeply afraid of Liu Hao!
Cao Cao's cheek muscles were pulsing, he narrowed his eyes and said solemnly: "Zhongda... quickly summon the generals to discuss matters!"
"Here!"
Sima Yi quickly bowed and agreed.
Not long after, Cao Cao's civil and military men gathered in the main tent of King Wei's army.
Everyone felt a slight sense of solemnity.
Cao Cao asked in a solemn voice: "Does the school affairs office have any news about Guandu?"
This treacherous hero, when one side of the war is in a disadvantageous situation, immediately changes his gaze and wants to find it on the other side...
Cao Pi walked out of the queue, bowed and clasped his fists and said: "King Wei, Mr. Xu You has returned from Yangwu!"
"What!?"
Cao Cao frowned and said: "Xu You is gone. Yang Feng and others are greedy for credit and have rushed forward, and it is difficult to take on the big responsibilities. Who can guard Yangwucheng alone... He is so courageous, even in the face of battle
Abandon the city and flee!?”
Regarding Yangwu, the strategic layout was a bait, but Cao Cao was not willing to just give up Yangwu City.
Because Yangwucheng is also an important place for military strategists.
The Han army captured Yangwu City, and Xiahou Yuan's light cavalry who attacked Xuchang were about to be completely cut off from supplies and became the only force that fell into the enemy's hinterland.
"Bring him up!"
Cao Cao thought of his brother Xia Houyuan who was covered in blood, and violent murderous intent flashed through his heart.
Xu You's hair was disheveled and he was carried into the tent by the people from the school affairs office in a state of despair.
"King Wei, please spare me this time..."
As soon as Xu You arrived at the tent, he kowtowed as if pounding garlic, the bluestone floor banging as he knelt, and said: "Yang Feng and others are greedy for merit and have rushed forward. The humble ministers have repeatedly advised me not to listen. I have no choice but to return to Liyang first.
....."
boom!
Cao Cao's eyebrows were like swords and he said coldly: "You are a marching Sima, but you have no courage or plan. Today you abandon the city and flee, and tomorrow you will surrender the city. If I don't hold you accountable, how will you calm people's hearts? How will you manage the army in the future?
!?"
Xu You's body was shaken violently and he screamed miserably: "Meng De... you and I have been friends for many years. This time the situation is urgent and we have no choice. Please spare me this time. I will fight to the death to repay you in the future."
!”
Xu Youman thought that his relationship with Cao Cao would be a big deal if he was punished with a few years of salary. He never expected that Cao Cao would become murderous and wanted to take action on him!
A look of sadness appeared on Cao Cao's face, and he shook his head and said: "Xu You escaped before the battle, which caused the loss of Yangwu, and also put my brother Miaocai in extreme danger... Zihuan, if we talk about military law, this person is
What crime should be committed!?"
Cao Pi said loudly: "According to the law...you should be killed!"
"Military law comes first, no mercy!"
Cao Cao also squeezed out a few tears, waved his hands solemnly, and said: "School Affairs Office, I will carry him down and behead him!"
"Here!"
Cao Pi made a gesture to both sides, but stared at Xu You with a sinister gaze.
He was regarded as a secret person by Cao Cao, and he felt that he was not recognized by his relatives.
Cao Cao gave the order, and Cao Pi's men immediately stepped forward and held down the struggling Xu You with their backhands.
Xu You was angry and frightened, and screamed: "Cao Ah Man, how could you have secured Hebei without my help!" How could you kill the donkey as soon as the time comes? You are really an ungrateful villain.
!!”
It is also a critical moment of life and death, and all the old friendships that have been made for many years are empty.
In the huge tent, among the hundreds of civil and military people, no one stood up to speak for Xu You!
Only Shen Pei stood up, bowed low, clasped his fists and said: "The king of Wei is wise, Xu You abandoned the city and left, putting our army in a completely passive position. He should be killed to rectify his people's hearts!"
"Please King Wei kill him!"
"Please King Wei kill him!"
No one offered help in times of trouble, but there were many who added insult to injury.
Xu You had committed many crimes back then, and now that he had tricked Xia Houyuan, these people jumped out one after another, hoping to use this opportunity to add insult to injury and completely pin Xu You to death...
"Mad! If I had known earlier, I would have surrendered the city!"
Xu You was forcibly taken outside the tent by Cao Pi and his men. He screamed loudly, but no one paid attention to him. He really wanted to cry without tears, and felt regrets in his heart...
If he surrendered to the Han army and dedicated the city, he might still have some merit!
Finally, with a shrill scream, Xu You's cries of ghosts and wolf howls finally stopped. Not long after, Cao Pi entered the tent holding a bloody human head.
Cao Cao narrowed his little eyes and said: "The war in Hejian Kingdom is not going well, and the strategic deployment of Yangwucheng has been penetrated by the Han army. Bo Fu, what do you think we should do to reverse the situation?"
Sun Cexiong's body trembled, he took off his helmet, put it aside, and said: "My brother Zhongmou failed to defend the city, and it is all due to the incompetence of the last general's teaching. I ask the King of Wei to punish me, and the last general is willing to lead the army!"
