The weather in Xuzhou city tonight is bleak, and it also indicates that the people of Xuzhou will have a difficult night. General Cao Jun quickly captured many generals and their families in Xuzhou, which was also mixed with many innocent people. Cao Cao ordered them to be killed. But Lu Zhuang and Chen Gong have not caught them yet. Moreover, Asan had not sent Diao Chan, which made Cao Cao very angry, and sent more soldiers to step up the search.
Cao Cao's general, Xia Houyuan, was leading his soldiers to search Xuzhou City, when he suddenly saw a dry well in the back garden that was very conspicuous. Xia Houyuan led the soldiers around, and the soldiers shouted, "Is there anyone in the well."
Lu Zhuang was trembling with fright in the well, and the six gods were not in charge, and he did not dare to answer.
Xia Houyuan asked the soldiers to bring in small stones and throw them into the dry well. Lu Zhuang saw that a stone was thrown down, and shouted, "There are people in the well, don't throw it."
Xia Houyuan put down the rope and pulled Lu Zhuang up. I saw Lu Zhuang's gaunt face, described as haggard, and seemed to be very scared. He looked out of tune with his chubby figure. This fat body did not know how many people's fats had been sucked.
Xia Houyuan escorted Lu Zhuang to Cao Cao. Lu Zhuang threw himself to his knees, grabbed Cao Cao's robe, and shouted for mercy.
Cao Cao saw that Lu Zhuang was even more angry, and said, "You killed my father, and you have an antagonism with me. How can I forgive you." Cao Cao motioned to the left and right, dragged Lv Zhuang down and chopped it down, and Lv Zhuang collapsed in fright. The ground was dragged abruptly by the soldiers.
Another soldier came to report that Ah San was dead, and Diao Chan was missing and could not be found.
After Cao Cao heard this, he felt very sorry, but felt a little relieved when he thought that Xuzhou had already taken it.
Suddenly, when visiting Malay newspaper, Chen Gong occupied Xiapi City and vowed to resist Cao Jun to the death. After hearing this, Xia Houyuan sneered next to him: "Unknown Rats, nothing to worry about."
"Brother Xiahou must not underestimate Chen Gong", Guo Jia shook his head on the side, and continued, "Xiapi city is strong, Xuzhou grain and grass are mostly located in Xiapi, besides, there are 30,000 defenders, which is a hard bone. Add me. The army killed a lot of people in Xuzhou, and the people in Xiapi were not afraid to resist desperately. It is autumn now, and it will be winter in two months, and it will be even more difficult to attack the city."
When Cao Cao heard this, he felt a little heavy and worried, "Since Feng Xiao raised this issue, there must be a solution." Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia.
Guo Jia pondered for a moment, and slowly said, "For the present plan, we must first appease the people in Xuzhou City. We must post notices and tell the people in Xuzhou City that only Lu Zhuang will be held accountable for the fault, and no one else will be held accountable."
Although Cao Cao was reluctant in his heart, he can only do that now.
After Cao Cao settled down in Xuzhou, he appointed his confidant Cha Cha as the governor of Xuzhou and guarded Xuzhou, while he led his army to attack Xia Pi. Cao Jun arrived in Xiapi and set up camp under the city. Chen Gong looked from a distance on Xiapi City, and saw Cao Jun coming to cover the sky and cover the sun. The soldiers in Xia Pi were very scared and trembling. Chen Gong said, "Don’t be afraid, because his father was killed, Cao Cao hated us Xuzhou soldiers. Only by desperate resistance can there be a way to survive. If the city is broken, not only us, but even the people in the city will be brutally murdered by Cao's thieves. Everyone must guard Xiapi and defend our family."
Although Chen Gong knew that defeating Cao Cao was almost impossible and Xiapi City could not be saved sooner or later, Cao Cao deceived so much that he couldn't keep it, and he would have to pay a heavy price for Cao Cao.
"General Chen, Cao Cao is calling you to answer under the city." A soldier came to report, interrupting Chen Gong's thoughts. Chen Gong looked down the city and saw Cao Cao say, "Gongtai, I have no grievances against you, but you have repeatedly opposed me. Why?"
Chen Gong sneered and said: "Cao Ama, you have to talk smartly, no one in the world knows your treacherously better than me. You occupy Xuzhou and slaughter the people in the name of killing your father, and everyone is angry."
Cao Cao was furious, and said fiercely, "It seems that you must have trouble with me.
Cao Cao became angry and ordered the whole army to attack the city immediately. With an order from Cao Jun, tens of thousands of troops came over, and one after another set up ladders to carry on the city wall of Xiapi. Cao Ren took the lead, ran at the forefront, and immediately climbed the ladder. It seemed that he wanted to be the first to climb up and down Picheng. Here, Cao Hong was not to be outdone. He shot his bow towards the wall, and the soldiers on the wall fell one after another.
Seeing that the Cao army was increasing, Chen Gong immediately ordered the soldiers to throw down the prepared stones, fangs, etc., and poured down the hot oil that had just been burned. Launching rockets, Cao Jun’s ladders caught fire one after another, and the soldiers were also burned by the fire. Suddenly, the sound of shouting, running, and howling were intertwined, which was very tragic. The smell of burnt corpses filled the air.
Cao Ren, who was attacking the city, was hit by a stone in his helmet and fell off. Fortunately, he was protected by a helmet, and only slightly injured, Cao Ren wiped the blood from his forehead, ready to continue fighting. At this time, Cao Cao saw that Cao Jun had less than a slight advantage, and the casualties were serious, so he immediately retreated with gold. Cao Jun left thousands of corpses and ran away.
The soldiers and civilians in Xiapi were very happy to see Cao Jun's defeat, but Chen Gong was still very worried, because he knew that Cao Cao would definitely not give up, and the fierce battle had just begun.
Cao Cao felt very anxious when he saw Xia Picheng could not be captured for a long time, so he hurriedly recruited Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Xun You, Zhang Liao, Cao Ren, Xiahou Dun and others to come to discuss.
"Xiapi City can't be captured for a long time. Our soldiers are tired of horses and lack of food and grass. Seeing that winter is coming, Xiapi City will be even more difficult to capture. What do you think," Cao Cao said straightforwardly.
"Because our army slaughtered the people in Xuzhou, the people in Xuzhou were very afraid, so everyone resisted desperately, afraid that after the city was broken, their families would lose their lives. Although our army has posted a notice, we no longer hold people in Xuzhou. Responsibility. However, everyone is still dubious and don't believe us. This is the current predicament." Jia Xu's analysis hit the nail on the head.
"Then how to break this predicament and let the people in Xiapi trust us" Cao Cao asked eagerly.
Jia Xu looked at everyone and said to Cao Cao, "It is better to provide money to support the survivors of those soldiers in Xuzhou, the people will naturally gradually eliminate their misunderstandings about us."
When everyone heard Jia Xu's suggestion, they immediately exploded. The lord's father was harmed by them. It is magnanimous not to hold their family members accountable, and it is ridiculous to spend money to support their survivors.
Cao Cao was very angry when he heard Jia Xu's suggestion, but when he thought about what Jia Xu said, it made sense. If he wanted to reach the world, he must be able to pretend to be in the world. "Nonsense, it is a great favor not to kill them, but to raise them," Cao Ren shouted loudly, with a layer of white cloth on his forehead. It seemed that the injury was not healed, and he waved his fist, looking very excited.
Cao Cao remained calm, turned his head and asked Guo Jia; "Fengxiao has any comments, let's listen."
Guo Jia stepped forward and looked at everyone, but didn't answer, but instead asked, "Excuse me, is it important to seize the world or revenge?"
Everyone was silent for a while, and Guo Jia continued: "Many Xuzhou soldiers are unaware of the matter of the lord’s father. Moreover, the chief evildoer, Lu Zhuang, is dead. There is no need to pursue endless investigations like this. It seems that we have no courage. We have indeed killed many innocent people in Xuzhou. If we don’t do something practical, it’s hard for the Xiapi people in Xuzhou to believe us. If we do this, the Xiapi soldiers will inevitably be insecure, and we can take it all in one go. Xia Xia Pi."
When Cao Cao heard Guo Jia's words, he suddenly realized how the one who took the world could be blinded by private enmity and almost missed a major event. Cao Cao made up his mind and sent Jia Xu to Xuzhou to take care of the survivors of General Lu Jun.
When the news spread to Xiapi County, everyone's fighting spirit was slackened a lot, and they thought, if you really can't beat it, then surrender. Cao Cao is not that bad, and maybe it will give us a way to survive. Chen Gong was very worried about this situation and told everyone that this was Cao Cao's trick. Don't believe it, or you will definitely regret it.
However, everyone is dubious, and don’t know who is telling the truth...
