Under Liu Ke¡¯s three attacks, Cao Cao could not bear the huge losses and quickly fled back to Yinpan City and closed the city gate.
Seeing this, Liu stopped pursuing, temporarily stopped his activities and led his troops back to the camp.
However, in order to prevent Cao Cao from attacking the camp at night, he specially arranged for Dian Wei to lead five thousand soldiers and horses to be stationed three miles outside the city and be on alert at all times.
Liu Ke¡¯s prediction was correct. There was indeed no sleep in the city tonight.
But it¡¯s not that they want to leave the city to attack the camp, but to discuss the next countermeasures.
Now Cao Cao is trapped in Yinpan City and is in a very dangerous situation.
Although he has never seen Liu Ke's giant stone cannon and divine arm crossbow, his subordinate Cao Hong has experienced it with his own eyes.
To this day, it¡¯s still a nightmare when I think about it.
Therefore, Cao Hong tried his best to dissuade Cao Cao from staying in the city for a long time to avoid being defeated by the opponent's huge stone cannon.
Although Cao Cao didn¡¯t take seriously the huge stone cannon that Cao Hong said.
As the inventor of the Thunderbolt Car, he absolutely did not believe that there was a weapon with such a long range and such power.
Normally, Cao Cao always boasts that his thunderbolt car is unparalleled and he is very proud of himself.
Now that a weapon far surpasses it, how can he accept it?
"However, Cao Hong's words were so true and he swore that many people in the venue began to believe him.
Jiang Ji, Wang Lang and other advisers also discouraged Cao Cao from breaking out of the encirclement as soon as possible. The best thing to do was to return to the northern plateau.
Although Yinpan City is now guarding the enemy, the enemy has so many people that they will never be able to hold on for long.
The most important thing is that in order to avoid being occupied by enemies, all the grain and grass in the city were transported to Beiyuan Yiju for storage.
The current reserves in the city are only enough for Cao Cao's army to last for five days.
In other words, within five days, either Liu Ke will be defeated and the food road will be restored.
Either break out of the siege as soon as possible and return to the northern plateau. Apart from this, there is no third option.
Being without food within five days was like a knife hanging over Cao Cao's head, forcing him to treat it with caution.
In fact, Cao Cao still wanted to choose the first method, which was to repel Liu Ke.
But two consecutive days of fighting made him understand that this possibility had dropped to almost impossible.
Even Cao Cao had no choice but to accept this reality.
So in this case, he can only break out of the encirclement as soon as possible and return to the North Plateau.
The so-called delay will lead to change, if Cao Cao hesitates and does not break out before the opponent is surrounded by Yinpan.
It will become increasingly difficult to break out later.
There is another point, if Liu Ke predicts his plan in advance.
If he captures Beiyuan early, he will have no choice but to capture him without mercy.
Even if Liu Ke fails to attack, his soldiers will inevitably mutiny after five days without food.
I saw that Cao Cao's face was cloudy and uncertain, as if he was having a fierce ideological struggle.
Finally, he finally made up his mind to give up Yinpan, break through and return to the North Plains.
With the supply of food and grass there, we can defend according to the danger and defeat Liu Ke.
When the generals heard Cao Cao's instructions, they all secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Speaking of which, they were really afraid that Cao Cao would get hot-headed and insist on a decisive battle with Liu Ke.
The decision was made, and Cao Cao was not a procrastinator. He immediately began to make arrangements, preparing to break out tonight, but the other party decided to unexpectedly.
To break through, someone must cut off the rear. Otherwise, if the opponent finds out and pursues them, the army will immediately collapse thousands of miles away.
The task after the break can be described as a narrow escape, and it is definitely not something that can be undertaken lightly.
Therefore, after Cao Cao asked who would take the initiative to ask for help, no one in the hall took the initiative to speak.
Cao Cao couldn't help but feel a flash of disappointment in his eyes. He didn't expect that now his men have lost their blood, and only those who are greedy for life and afraid of death are left.
Cao Hong was keenly aware of the look in Cao Cao's eyes, hesitated, and finally walked out of the queue.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty spared Cao Hong's death because of his fault last time. Hong always feels ashamed when he thinks about it.
Although Hong is not talented, he is willing to fight for the army and protect the king from danger! "
When Cao Cao heard this, he was overjoyed.
But he cherished Cao Hong's talents and couldn't bear for him to take on such a dangerous task.
But now, except for Cao Hong, no one has stepped forward.
After Cao Cao hesitated, he could only nod and said: "Zi Lian's courage is commendable."?I admire you so much! This mission is very dangerous, and I hope Zi Lian can turn the danger into good.
I¡¯m waiting for you in Beiyuan! "
Cao Cao's concern also made Cao Hong burst into tears. He nodded vigorously and said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the general will complete his mission successfully and return to his post as soon as possible!"
Cao Cao nodded affirmatively, and then gave Cao Hong five thousand sergeants to move to the south gate to prepare.
Under Cao Cao's arrangement, the other generals quickly packed up their things and prepared to break out from the north gate.
Cao Cao set the time to break out of the encirclement at Chou hour tonight.
This hour is when the sky is darkest, and it is also when a person sleeps the deepest. The enemy will never expect it.
Even if you hear the sound and react, your army has already gone far.
Cao Jun had arrived at the Western Plains long ago and was very familiar with the terrain here.
But Liu Kejun, who just arrived, is different.
Therefore, Cao Cao was sure that even if the opponent heard the noise, made no plans, and the terrain was unclear, they would never move out easily to avoid being ambushed.
After everything was arranged, Cao Jun took advantage of the rare time at this moment to recharge his batteries to avoid being listless and showing his flaws.
Cao Hong, on the other hand, always stayed at the south gate, keeping an eye on the time and preparing to attack out of the city to attract the opponent's attention.
Taking advantage of this time, Cao Hong ordered many people to prepare gongs and drums to create a momentum for the army to dispatch.
When the opponent is caught off guard, he will never dare to act rashly. Instead, he will rush to the camp and call for reinforcements.
By the time Liu Ke's army arrived, it was too late.
Cao Hong thought it through very carefully, but he just didn't consider his own retreat.
In fact, when he took the initiative to stand up before, he was already prepared to die.
Although Cao Cao did not punish him when he lost the pavilion last time, Cao Hong could not get over this hurdle in his heart.
He even thought it was his own mistake that put Cao Cao in his current situation.
So whether Cao Hong is stubborn or loyal, no one can change the things he decides.
As time passed by, Cao Hong's fighting spirit became more and more intense.
There were several wine glasses placed in front of his desk. Every time the clock sounded outside the window, Cao Hong drank one of them.
Now, there is only one glass of wine in front of him. After drinking this glass, he will set off.
"Boom - boom! Boom! Boom!"
The watchman in the city was banging his clapper, one fast and three slow, ringing four times.
After Cao Hong heard this, he picked up the last wine glass in front of him without hesitation and drank it all in one gulp.
The hot alcohol irritated his throat, making Cao Hong's whole body feel hot in this chilly night.
He picked up the machete on the wall and set off without hesitation. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
