Cao's army was killed on his back, and Zhang Fei and Zhang Liao led the cavalry to chase and kill until the city gate, only to be blocked by the arrows on the city wall and had to return.

Li Dian and Cao Ren led the remnants of the army to flee back to the city in disarray, and at this moment less than half of the two thousand light horsemen who followed them out of the city were left, and the rest were all lying outside the city.

Cao Ren and Li Dian got down from their horses, and then Li Dian went down to treat his wounds, and Cao Ren returned to the castle tower. Cao Ren's expression was very ugly at this moment, and it was no wonder that anyone who lost the battle would not be in a good mood!

Yu Ban on the side didn't say much, but his heart was very shocked, and what he didn't expect the most was that Zhang Liao, who had never fought with Cao Jun, was unexpectedly powerful.

At this moment, the expressions of all the soldiers of the Cao army on the city wall were not very good, and the first battle of their own army was frustrated, which made everyone's hearts can't help but be clouded.

Zhang Liao Zhang Fei laughed and led the cavalry back to the Chinese army's main formation, and then, the two did not take advantage of the victory to attack the city, but ordered the whole army to return to the camp.

The two led the army to Yuanmen, and Mi Zhu greeted them.

"The general's victory in the first battle has greatly frustrated the spirit of Cao's army! What a joy! Mi Zhu's face was full of joy.

Zhang Liao Zhang Fei jumped off the war horse, and then Zhang Liao said with a smile: "Mr. Mi Zhu actually greeted me at Yuanmen, I really can't afford to wait!"

Mi Zhu hurriedly said respectfully: "The general's words are serious!" I think I'm just a small person, and it's really my blessing to be able to personally greet two world-famous generals!

Zhang Liao smiled slightly, and Zhang Fei on the side laughed.

Zhang Fei patted Mi Zhu's shoulder very affectionately, Mi Zhu was staggered, his face was bitter, but he still smiled. Then Zhang Feihong said: "Go!" Let's go back to the big tent! Then

the three of them put their arms on the tent.

Back to the big tent, Zhang Fei and Zhang Liao first took off their helmets, and then sat on the wooden pier very casually. Mi Zhu also sat on a wooden pier like the two of them.

As soon as the three of them sat down, a soldier brought water and food. The water was served in a large clay pot, and the food was meat, which had been roasted, and was packed on a wooden plate, in the form of large pieces.

Zhang Liao and Zhang Fei lifted the clay pot and swallowed it and poured it. The big battle just now made the two of them sweat too much and were so thirsty.

Mi Zhu on the side held a clay pot about the size of his body, looked at the two people who swallowed mountains and rivers, and then looked at the clay pot in his arms, with a bitter face.

Zhang Fei put down the clay pot first, let out a long breath, and said with a sigh: "It's really cool!"

As soon as the words fell, Zhang Liao also put down the clay pot and let out a sigh of relief.

At this time, Zhang Fei noticed Mi Zhu's embarrassed expression, so he asked in surprise: "Why is Mr. Mi Zhu in a daze?" Aren't you thirsty?

Zhang Liao also noticed Mi Zhu's situation, and after being stunned for a moment, he smiled and said: "Presumably, Mr. Mi Zhu can't be like us rough people!" Then he raised his voice and said, "Someone! Prepare a small bowl for Mr. Mi Zhu!

Mi Zhu hurriedly put down the jug and arched his hand to the two of them: "Let the two generals laugh!"

Zhang Fei laughed and said: "It's really hard for you to let a scholar like you sleep with us!"

Mi Zhu smiled slightly awkwardly.

A moment later, the soldiers brought a small bowl. Zhang Liao personally lifted the jug and poured it on Mi Zhu. Mi Zhu hurriedly thanked him.

Then the three of them ate and drank together.

After a while, Mi Zhu showed a hesitant expression and asked, "The two generals have already defeated Cao Ren just now, but why don't they take advantage of the situation to attack the city?" "。 Mi Zhu has always wanted to ask this question, and finally asked it at this moment.

Zhang Liao and Zhang Fei stopped what they were doing, glanced at each other, and then Zhang Liao explained: "Before I left, the lord had already explained, and there was no need to hide everything from Mr. Mi Zhu.

Mi Zhu couldn't help but get a little nervous, he was worried that something would happen.

Zhang Liao paused, and then continued: "Our army's battle plan is to suppress Yecheng and force Cao Cao to return to the army!" Instead of storming Yecheng, or even driving straight into Yanzhou!

"Why is that?" Mi Zhu asked eagerly. Mi Zhu's expression was very nervous.

Zhang Liao smiled, "Mr. Mi Zhu doesn't need to be nervous!" At present, for Tao Yuanjun, he only needs Cao Cao to withdraw from the army, not Cao Cao! Our army suppressed Yecheng, and Cao Cao must be forced to return to the army, and the siege of Xuzhou can be lifted!

Mi Zhu nodded, it was Zhang Liao who said this.

Mi Zhu's expression loosened, he hugged his fists at the two, and said apologetically: "It's too much to worry about!" I hope the two generals don't mind!

Zhang Liao Zhang Fei suddenly laughed, Zhang Liao said proudly: "Mr. Mi Zhu is worried about the lord, we only have admiration, how can we be dissatisfied!" Sir, don't think much about it! Seeing

Zhang Liao and Zhang Fei so frank and heroic, Mi Zhu's heart did not rise to the feeling of a confidant.

Mi Zhu stood up and bowed to the two, and said with heartfelt emotion: "The two generals are really heroes!"

Zhang Liao stood up, pressed Mi Zhu back to his seat with a smile, and then continued to explain: "It's not that we don't want to eliminate the Cao thief, but the current situation of our army is not optimistic, and it is really not appropriate to resume the war with the Cao thief in a hurry!" I hope Mr. understands this!

Mi Zhu hurriedly hugged his fist at Zhang Liao and said: "The general doesn't need to say much, I know that it is indeed not easy to conquer the Northern Army!" The general can send troops to rescue under such circumstances, and I would like to express my great gratitude on behalf of Xuzhou! As he spoke, he stood up again and bowed deeply to the two of them.

This time, neither Zhang Liao nor Zhang Fei went to help Mi Zhu, because the two of them were receiving this gift on behalf of Chen Chu at the moment.

Then Mi Zhu returned to his seat, and at this moment, Mi Zhu's expression was completely free of the doubts just now.

"I wonder what the two generals will do next?" Mi Zhu asked.

Zhang Liao glanced at Zhang Fei, and Zhang Fei said with a grin: "Say it." So Zhang Liao explained: "Cao Ren must have sent someone to Xuzhou to inform Cao Cao of the situation here!" What we need to do now is to tightly seal the connection between Yecheng and the outside world, so that the situation here cannot reach Cao Cao's ears! As long as Cao Cao can't get the news of Yecheng, he will inevitably be frightened, and once he is frightened, he will inevitably give up attacking Xuzhou and return to Yecheng!

Mi Zhu couldn't help but light up his eyes, and said to Zhang Liao with emotion: "General Zhang can really be described as a 'wise and brave general'!"

Zhang Liao and Zhang Fei glanced at each other, and then burst out laughing, and Mi Zhu also laughed. The atmosphere between the three of them seemed very harmonious.

The messenger sent by Cao Ren rushed to Xuzhou all the way, and the journey of more than 2,000 miles was completed in less than three days.

When the summons arrived at the camp of Cao's army in Xuzhou, Cao Cao was planning a new offensive against Xuzhou City.

"Zikao sent you, what's the urgency?" Cao Cao sat on the top of the handsome seat and asked gloomily. At this moment, there were two columns of dozens of strategists and generals standing on his left and right, and there was a dusty messenger kneeling in the hall, and this messenger was sent by Cao Ren to convey a message to Cao Cao.

"Lord Qiqi, something is wrong! The Northern Army suddenly went south a few days ago, and at this moment it was rushing to attack Yecheng, and General Cao specially ordered to report to the next place! The messenger reported with urgency.

The messenger's words exploded in the tent like a bombshell, and everyone couldn't help but change color in unison.

Cao Cao Huo stood up suddenly, took three steps and made two steps to the messenger, and shouted with an extremely gloomy face: "What nonsense are you talking about! How dare you spread rumors! "

The villain will never dare to talk nonsense! Everything the villain said is true! When the messenger saw Cao Cao's terrifying face, he fell to his knees in fright.

At this time, the generals were discussing, some people thought that this messenger was Tao Qian's trick, and some people thought that the messenger was indeed sent by Cao Ren.

Hearing the generals' discussions, Cao Cao couldn't help but hesitate.

At this moment, the strategist Guo Jia suggested: "Whether it is true or not, our army must return!" If it is false, there is not much harm in our army returning, and if it is true, if our army does not withdraw in time, it will be difficult to clean up! "。 In fact, Guo Jia had already expected that the Northern Army would not have the intention of sweeping Yanzhou this time, and the reason why he wanted to say this was completely to take the opportunity to persuade Cao Cao to withdraw his troops, and it was really not the right time to attack Xuzhou at this time.

Cao Cao hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I am really unwilling to withdraw my troops like this!" "。 Cao Cao's tone revealed a deep hatred.

Hearing this, Guo Jia couldn't help frowning, and when he was about to persuade again, Cao Cao continued: "But Yecheng can't ignore it, so I decided to send a fast horse scout back to find out the situation!" In the meantime, the army continued to attack Xuzhou! I have made up my mind, and you don't need to say it anymore!

When Guo Jia saw Cao Cao say this, he knew that it was useless to persuade him, so he sighed and didn't say anything more.

The Cao army continued to storm Xuzhou, and Xuzhou became more and more critical under the continuous attack of the Cao army, but it was not very likely that the Cao army would break through Xuzhou in a short time, after all, the city of Xuzhou was strong, and Tao Qian had 60,000 soldiers under him who swore to defend the city.

At the same time that Cao's army was rushing to attack Xuzhou, 10,000 soldiers led by Liu Bei had already crossed the Yellow River. However, Liu Bei did not drive in the direction of Xuzhou, but turned east to Qingzhou.

Two days later, Liu Bei led the army to Qingzhou, and Tian Kai, the assassin of Qingzhou, personally led the troops to meet him.

Before entering the city, Liu Bei explained his intention. Liu Bei hugged his fists towards Tian Kai with a heavy face and said: "Now Cao Cao is attacking Tao Envoy Jun, killing the people in column, and Beite will lead the troops to the rescue!" It's hateful to be alone, and it may be difficult to defeat the Cao thief, so I want to ask Lord Assassin Shi to go to the rescue of Tao Envoy Jun with Bei!

Tian Kai pondered: If Cao Cao is allowed to eliminate Tao Qian, he will definitely turn his troops to the east, and his Qingzhou will be in danger!

As soon as he thought of this, Tian Kai hugged his fist towards Liu Bei and said generously: "Tao Envoy Jun is a benevolent gentleman, Cao Cao's move is really excessive!" Kai is also willing to lead the troops to rescue Tao Envoy Jun!

Liu Bei was overjoyed when he heard this, what he was most worried about was that no one was willing to go with him to rescue Tao Qian, if that was the case, his trip would be really dangerous!

Liu Bei and Tian Kai put their arms into Qingzhou City, and that night Tian Kai hosted a banquet in the backyard of the Assassin's Mansion to entertain Liu Bei.

Early the next morning, Tian Kai ordered 30,000 elites and personally led the troops to leave Qingzhou with Liu Bei.

The two led an army of 40,000 to the south, passing through the North Sea.

The two originally planned to invite Beihai Kong Rong to go to Xuzhou to rescue, but they saw from a distance that the two armies were fighting under Beihai City. One of the armies wore a banner with a hole character and wore green armor, while the other was dressed in a messy manner and had a yellow scarf on its head, which was clearly the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army.
