    ??

    If Cao Cao was in Xudu, he could still use his fierce power to suppress these people, but he is no longer in Xudu.

    And because of his previous series of operations, everyone in Xudu thought that Cao Cao was on his last legs. In their eyes, Cao Cao was just a tiger without teeth.

    Therefore, this rebellion is more serious than before, and more people are involved. From the time when the first fire was lit, to now, no less than twenty fires have been lit.

    Cheng Yu stood on the city wall, looking coldly at Xu Du, who was surrounded by flames. His eyes were deep and dangerous.

    Cao Hong, Xia Houyuan, Cao Zhen and a group of direct generals were standing beside him. Listening to the intelligence coming back from the people below, Cao Hong and others were impatient and wanted to lead their troops out immediately to kill all the rebels.

    More than an hour has passed since the rebellion broke out, but Cheng Yu did not give any orders. He just stared at the burning Xu Du and remained silent.

    Finally, Cao Hong couldn't help it anymore and asked, "Why don't you take action? If this continues, the entire city of Xu will be burned down."

    Cheng Yu glanced at Cao Hong and said nothing.

    Xia Houyuan also said, "That's right. If this continues, I'm afraid Xu Du will suffer heavy losses." Cao Hong and Xia Houyuan were loyal to Cao Cao. In their opinion, Xu Du belongs to Cao Cao, and any loss would be disastrous.  Feeling distressed.

    Cheng Yu spoke up at this time, "Generals, do you know why King Wei set up a trap to allow this turmoil to happen?"

    Cao Hong said, "Aren't you just going to catch those little guys in one fell swoop?"

    Cheng Yu said, "Yes, but the time is so short now, and there are still many people who are waiting and watching. If we take action now, the effect will not be big. It will make those people see that the situation is not good and dare not come out. If we don't eradicate those people, they will still be there in the future."  There will be rebellion.¡±

    Hearing this, Xia Houyuan, Cao Hong and others understood what Cheng Yu meant. They wanted to condone the rebellion and give the rebels the illusion that Cao Cao was unable to cope with it, so that those who were watching would join in one after another.  It's time to take action and catch them all in one fell swoop.

    Cao Hongdao, "If this is the case, I'm afraid we will suffer heavy losses."

    Cheng Yu said, "You can't build without destroying. If you want to catch all those people, how can you do it without paying a price? And in order to attract those rebels, this order has reduced the number of guards in the palace."

    "What?" After hearing Cheng Yu's words, Cao Hong, Xia Houyuan and others almost jumped up.

    Cao Hong was furious, "Do you know what you are doing?"

    "If the emperor falls into the hands of the rebels, do you know what this means to King Wei?"

    Cao Hong, Xia Houyuan and others looked at Cheng Yu with evil eyes. The Emperor is the foundation of Cao Cao's current foundation. If Cao Cao does not have the Emperor, the Wei Kingdom will not exist for long. If nothing else, Liu Zhehui from the north alone  Lead the troops to rush over immediately.

    Cheng Yu ignored the angry looks of Cao Hong and others and said, "I certainly know what I am doing. Since King Wei has given Benn full authority to handle Xu Du's affairs, I will definitely not let down King Wei's trust."

    Cao Hong and others were silent. They knew Cheng Yu was loyal to Cao Cao. If it were someone else who did this, Cao Hong and others would be too lazy to pay attention. Cao Hong finally said coldly, "I hope you don't play with fire."

    Cheng Yu smiled slightly and said confidently, "I will not make fun of Xu Du."

    "I hope the palace will be safe and sound." Xia Houyuan said to himself.

    "Don't worry, this order has already informed General Xiahou. He already knows. As long as he persists until one night, reinforcements will arrive." Cheng Yu said.

    The guard of the palace is Xiahou De, who is Xiahouyuan's nephew. Xiahouyuan will definitely be worried.

    At this time, the outside of the palace was surrounded by rebels. Their intention was very clear. They wanted to break through the palace and snatch the emperor away. Only by controlling the emperor could they continue. Otherwise, they would fail sooner or later.

    They know that there is a huge gap between their own strength and Cao Cao. What they can do is to take the opposite direction and control the emperor, and then use the name of the emperor to summon more people to deal with Cao Cao.

    The gates of the palace were closed tightly, and there were more and more rebels outside, making the defenders on the city very nervous.

    Originally, some of the palace guards belonged to Wang Yun, but after Liu Zhe came to Xudu, Wang Yun's son and nephew went to provoke Liu Zhe, so they were eliminated by Liu Zhe, and Cao Cao took the opportunity to take control of them all.  All the guards in the palace were defeated.

    Xiahou De is the commander-in-chief of the palace guards. He usually has nearly three men under his command.Many soldiers came to defend the palace, but due to Cheng Yu's operation, Xiahou De now had less than half of his soldiers.

    Nearly 1,500 people may seem like a lot, but they are scattered around the palace, and the number of soldiers guarding the palace gates is only a few hundred.

    The rebels outside are gathering more and more, and now there are at least two to three thousand people.

    It would be very difficult for hundreds of people to resist the attack of two to three thousand people, but because the palace gate is closed and the city wall is high, it should be able to withstand for a while.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
