Xu You worshiped, and said, "Since it is difficult, I should take care of it, but I must be worried, otherwise I will write a letter and please bring it together." Ma Chao nodded and agreed, so Xu You came to come.
Pen and ink, wrote a letter, and after installing it, Ma Chao's messenger sent it to Yuyu Yingzhai.
After Xu You and Ma Chao observed the strategic deployment around the surrounding area, they said, "The land in Chang'an City is very hard, and the water is also alkaline.
It is better to retreat first, and then so that, then Changan can break through! "
After hearing, Ma Chao sighed: "This strategy is very good!" So sent the "Ling" flag to various ministries to let the first retreat. After Ma Chao himself broke, the people and horses of various ministries retreated.
Zhong Yan boarded the city wall on the second day and saw the local retreat. He thought that the food was used up, and he was very happy, but he was very cautious. He was afraid that it would be the other party's strategy.
Then rest assured, let the military and civilians in the city come out to cut firewood and water, open the city gate, and operate normally.
On the fifth day, some people reported that Ma Chao's soldiers and horses came again.
Zhong Yan's younger brother Zhong Jin was arranged to guard the west gate. It repeatedly had a fire in the city. Zhong Jin hurried to rescue. Suddenly a person appeared by the city, holding a machete, and shouted: "Pound is in
this!"
Zhong Jin's measures were not urgent, and Pound was killed to the horse under the knife, killed the military academy, cut off the door lock, and put the army of Ma Chao, Han Sui and others in the city.
Decisively abandoned Chang'an City and left.
Ma Chao and Han Sui captured Chang'an City and rewarded the three armies. Ma Chao admired Xu You's strategy.
At this time, the messenger sent out from Xiliang also came to Yuyu's Yingzhai Village. Yu Yan opened the letter of Xu You's letter.
If the outside of Chang'an does not break, the Tongguan is not lost, the road of our army will be cut off. I will try my best to assist Xiliang to win Changan and Tongguan, and personally welcome the young master to enter the city.
After Yu Yan finished reading the letter, he knew Xu You's intention, so he said to the messenger: "express your gratitude to you." After speaking, he personally sent the messenger out of Yingzhai.
Zhong Yan lost Chang'an and could only retreat in Tongguan. At this time, he received the stationed by Yu Yi's tens of thousands of troops near Tongguan. The situation was critical, so he sent someone to report to Cao Cao quickly.
Cao Cao knew that Chang'an City was lost, and the matter was very serious. He could only put on hold on the previous plan to the south. Cao Hong and Xu Huang ordered, "You take 10,000 people first to help Zhong Yan defend Wei Pingguan.
After Tongguan, I will behead you all. If it is ten days away, I will not do your affairs. My commander will come. "
The two walked away, and went to Tongguan overnight.
Cao Ren advised: "Cao Hong's personality is very impatient, I am afraid it will delay things."
Cao Cao said: "You escort me with me and follow me to respond behind."
A long time ago, there was a report that reported this situation to Yu Yan. Yu Yan found everyone to discuss it. Huang Shumin suggested: "The 10,000 troops of Xu Huang and Cao Hong will pass the position of our place.
Wipe all it! "
Lei Chunze was eager to try, saying: "I asked the young master to be the pioneer, and I have not fought recently. I have itchy hands!"
When everyone waited for Yu Yan to order the offense order, Yu Yan stopped the offensive operation. "Although Cao Jun came from a distance, he still had a good combat power.
Great costs, we need to know that our capital is easy to spell light. "
Lei Chunze was very disappointed after hearing it, and said: "Do we just watch them pass like this without taking action?"
Yu Yan didn't go back to this question positively, and asked Huang Shumin on one side: "How about Sima Yi?"
The replied: "He has led the soldiers to spend the Yellow River and is rushing to Tongguan."
Yu Yan said: "If Sima Yi's army and Cao Hong and others co -soldiers, then all the opponents are not known!"
Huang Shumin nodded and said: "Now we have the danger of being surrounded by three sides, what should we do?"
Yu Yan opened the map stall: "After Sima Yi's army crosses the river, he will definitely move towards the direction of Hongnong, and Cao Hong and Xu Huang's army will come out of the capital from Xu.
The location moves to the south slightly and is stationed near Lu's, and does not want to wipe out the enemy. It just sets up some ambush. The focus is to search for the property and food on them to supplement our army. Others can let go and let it go. "
Wu Chenggong understood Yu Yan's intention, and laughed: "The young master is to use the hands of the Western Liang soldiers to destroy Cao Jun and save our power!"
Yu Yan nodded and immediately arranged.
Cao Hong and Xu Huang's soldiers and horses went all the way. They got the news from Zhong Yan, knowing that the Yu Yan troops were near Hongnong, and they ordered Sima Yi's troops to drag. They went to Lu's direction.
Suddenly, there was a sound of a gun, and two people came out, and they surrounded them.
The head of the head is Yu Yan. He rode a war horse, holding a spider in his hand to paint the halberd, and said that Cao Hong said: "Little thief, I am waiting for you here for a long time, and the horse will not be dropped!"
Cao Hong was impatient, and when he saw a hairy boy come out to provoke, he was ready to face it.
Xu Huang advised: "We ran for a long distance, and they were ambush again. They should not be too entangled.
Cao Hong waved his hand and said: "You take the big team forward, I come to break it." After that, he ignored Xu Huang's dissuasion and came out to challenge Yu Yan.
The two horses intersect, Yu Yan and Cao Hong fight together, fighting for more than thirty rounds. Cao Hong thought that the reason for strength and began to fall into the wind. At this time, Yu Yan's troops continued to surge.
Yao was afraid that Cao Hong would lose, but he still came over. Yu Yan led the army to lose. The army led by the two was defeated, and some supplies could not care about cleaning up.
Yu Yan ordered the sergeant to focus on cleaning up strategic supplies. The pursuit of the pursuit was very large, but the chase was very slow. Soon Cao Jun broke away from Yu Yan's encirclement circle and entered Tongguan.
Cao Hong and Xu Huang took the soldiers and horses into Tongguan, and began to adhere to the Guanzhang according to the plan.
Cao Hong was very angry, so he had to go to the level to fight.
Xu Huang persuaded him: "This is Ma Chao who was stimulating the general to fight, and we hit the ambush of Yu Yan, and ran for a long distance. We couldn't fight anymore. I hope that there will be a better way to wait until the prime minister's army comes."
