    Liu Zhe ordered: "Zilong, go down and rest first."

    Hearing this, Zhao Yun shook his head and said: "My lord, no need, I have to be careful of Cao Cao's sneak attack."

    Zhao Yun refused to go down to rest. There are still a lot of things for him as a general to do.

    Liu Zhe smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, Cao Cao won't attack again."

    "Really?" Zhao Yun's eyes lit up. He had known Liu Zhe's plan for the past two days and asked in surprise, "Have our people arrived?"

    Liu Zhe nodded and said, "Well, we're already here. Cao Ren has retreated now."

    "That's great." Zhao Yun said with a happy smile on his face and breathed a sigh of relief.

    However, as soon as he was relieved, he felt tired immediately, and his whole body felt weak.

    Liu Zhe saw that Zhao Yun looked even more tired, and couldn't help but said: "Zilong, go down and rest. I'll talk to Cao Cao tonight."

    "Let Zilong escort the Lord."

    No matter where Zhao Yun was willing to go to rest, he was determined to follow and protect Liu Zhe.

    Seeing Zhao Yun¡¯s persistence, Liu Zhe agreed to his request without forcing him.

    ?¡­

    Cao Cao¡¯s army camp, the Chinese army¡¯s tent, Cao Cao¡¯s roaring voice came from inside.

    "Damn it, what happened?"

    Cao Cao roared in the big tent, furious, and yelled at a group of lowly generals.

    Seeing the signal of Cao Ren's attack today, Cao Cao immediately asked Cao Hong to continue the attack.  But after they attacked for a while, Cao Cao discovered that Cao Hong had once again sent a signal not to attack.

    When the two wolf smoke rose, Cao Cao almost fell off his horse.

    What the hell are you doing?

    Cao Cao cursed in his heart.

    It¡¯s just that although Cao Ren couldn¡¯t attack for some unknown reason, he was already attacking and was already riding a tiger. In the end, Cao Cao gritted his teeth and had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue the attack.

    Fortunately, the results of the morning's attack were gratifying. Several times, his soldiers rushed to the city wall. However, before noon arrived, the defense above Tongguan seemed to have been further strengthened. His soldiers were never able to attack the city wall again.

    From the attack to the present, Cao Cao has been attacking the city for six consecutive days. The biggest progress is that the soldiers attacked the Tongguan city wall, and then they could not go any further.

    In six days, Cao Cao's soldiers suffered heavy losses. Up to now, half of the 60,000 soldiers were still usable. In other words, he lost more than 30,000 soldiers in six days.  There are more than 10,000 people.

    Cao Cao felt so distressed. Only a small part of these lost soldiers were surrendered troops, and the rest were his direct lineage and troops he had personally formed.

    Today I originally wanted to capture Tongguan with Cao Ren. After all, he felt uncomfortable and so did Liu Zhe.

    However, Cao Ren let him go halfway. The most important thing is that Cao Cao still didn't know why Cao Ren couldn't attack the city and why he let him go.

    Tongguan is in the middle, and it will take at least more than a day for Cao Cao to know the news about Cao Ren.

    Cao Cao kept cursing Liu Zhe: "Damn Liu Zhe, damn Liu Zhe, bastard, damn it, damn it, damn it, damn it"

    Several consecutive days of unfavorable attacks have made Cao Cao tired and a little collapsed.

    Tongguan is occupied, Cao Cao must capture it as soon as possible to join up with Cao Ren and relieve the crisis in Yongzhou.

    ¡°It¡¯s not like it¡¯s okay to capture Tongguan after a year and a half. If we don¡¯t capture it as soon as possible, Yongzhou will be gone.

    Especially since Liu Zhe¡¯s army has crossed the river and entered Yongzhou, Cao Ren is already in danger. Once Cao Ren is defeated or captured, Yongzhou will be gone.

    So Cao Cao did not let the injured Cao Hong rest, but let him continue to command the soldiers to attack, in order to capture Tongguan as soon as possible. Unfortunately, he still failed.

    It¡¯s not that Cao Hong didn¡¯t work hard, it¡¯s that Liu Zhe¡¯s soldiers were too difficult to deal with.

    Cao Cao paced back and forth, feeling extremely regretful. He once again thought that he would have known better not to adopt Cheng Yu's plan and take the initiative to provoke Liu Zhe.

    Originally, he wanted to pretend to provoke Liu Zhe in order to paralyze Gongsun Zan, but in the end he actually provoked Liu Zhe, and instead stopped attacking Xuzhou, which was exactly the opposite of what Cao Cao thought.

    Cao Cao's subordinates looked at Cao Cao's slight loss of composure, and all of them had helpless expressions on their faces. They were not surprised that Cao Cao was like this.

    And Cao Cao only acted slightly out of control, which was already veryWrong. If it had been anyone else, it would have collapsed long ago.

    After Cao Cao vented his anger, the depression in his chest finally eased a lot. He sat down again, looked around, and asked in a deep voice: "Tongguan cannot be captured for a long time, what can you do?"

    Cao Cao is at his wits end. The best way he can think of is to attack from both sides. But now, there is a problem with Cao Ren and he cannot jointly attack with him. The most hateful thing is that the reason is still unknown.

    "Lord, what else can we do? Continue to attack." Cao Hong said angrily. After several days of hard work and injuries on his body, Cao Hong's voice was hoarse and his eyes were bloodshot.

    Seeing Cao Hong like this, Cao Cao couldn't bear to speak louder to him.

    "My lord, what happened now"

    Man Chong spoke up, but after saying this, he couldn't continue because he had no choice.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
