Chapter 741

"Tragic, too tragic, I didn't expect Chen Gong to play so much." Zhang Yu said after receiving front-line intelligence again.

Guo Jia also said with emotion: "yes, I didn't expect that the garrison in the city would also take the opportunity to kill. I'm not afraid that we and Yuan Shao would seize the opportunity to seize the city."

Chen Gong is a big hand. When more than 100000 troops are sent out, they are not afraid of Zhang Yu's capture of the city, nor are they afraid of setting up a bigger encirclement around the periphery to encircle all their troops.

In fact, although Chen Gong took risks, it was not without consideration. None of the three sides believed in anyone. It was very difficult to organize such a large-scale siege at this time.

If these troops were under the unified command of one person, Chen Gong's tactics today would definitely ruin him.

But they are three people, and they can't command together.

Cao Cao's army was finally defeated by Xuzhou's army.

Tens of thousands of troops under siege were all annihilated.

Lu Bu fought back Xu Chu's interception and organized 20000 troops to pursue him again.

This time, more than 30000 troops were gathered around Cao Cao, half of them were troops that had fled from the battlefield and were reorganized.

The two sides are fighting again.

This time, Xu Chu, Xia Houyuan and other generals were able to hold their ground, but they were not defeated by Lu Bu.

Cao Cao and they blocked Lu Bu and took over part of the defeated army.

Many Cao will start to break through, and finally one general will break through and come back.

But most of their troops didn't come back.

The most general will only have more than 3000 troops.

Cao Cao retreated with more than 70000 defeated troops.

Lu Bu came back after more than ten miles.

If we go all the way, I'm afraid the Cao army will be defeated.

But Lu Bu didn't dare. If he pursued too far, he might be cut off by Zhang Yu and Yuan Shao.

Cao Cao all the way back, the heart has been dripping blood.

Of the 230000 troops, only more than 70000 came back in the end, which is unbearable.

Of course, there are still many scattered troops on the battlefield, and there may be 10000 or 20000 people when they are gathered up, but even if they come back, they will not be able to fight in a short time.

Cao Cao was defeated, and the defeat was quite severe.

"Hahaha, it's really exciting to see Cao A-man go back in a mess today."

When Yuan Shao received the final information, he was very happy.

Cao Cao has always been his great enemy. Although he cooperated this time, he could not change the fact of the enemy.

After Lu Bu came back, he began to count the seizure and count the casualties.

A great victory naturally resulted in the capture of countless supplies and weapons, which fell into Lv Bu's hands.

Nearly 200000 troops died on the battlefield.

More than 200000 people died and were injured in the first World War, which was a tragic war.

However, Lu Bu was very happy and came back with a big victory.

When the statistics arrived, Chen Gong was not dazzled by the victory in front of him. Instead, he thought of the arrangements behind.

Xiapi city is a lot of joy, but Cao Cao at this time is gloomy.

Cao Cao directly retreated for dozens of miles before he stopped to rest.

As soon as he stopped, Cao Cao fell down with a headache.

Cao Cao did not dare to let ordinary soldiers know the news.

"Zhongde, it's my carelessness. I've suffered a great defeat and the army has lost too much. What should we do?" Cao Cao asked weakly.

Cheng Yu has been thinking all the way, the defeat has been doomed.

"Lord, defeat is defeat, but we can't go back. So we go back. When Yuan Shao and Zhang Yu destroy Lv Bu, we will attack the land we have occupied in Xuzhou. If it's serious, we may be attacked by Yuan Shao and Zhang Yu. At that time, we are in the most crisis." Cheng Yu said.

Cao Cao thought about it. It was hard for him to give up the land he had occupied. If they were weak at this time, whether it was true or false, Zhang Yu and Yuan Shao might come to besiege him.

If Cao Cao had a chance to destroy Zhang Yu and Yuan Shaozhong, he would not hesitate to do so.

"Lord, let's take a rest here for two days. The general's team will be redistributed and each general will lead thousands of soldiers and horses. Then we will take part in the battle of xiapi again. At the same time, let the rear send more soldiers and horses to support us. In addition, we will immediately recruit soldiers and horses to fill the losses."

Cheng Yu gave Cao Cao a series of suggestions.

"OK, just as Zhong De said, but please come back to Xuchang immediately and take charge of the overall situation."

Cao Cao knew that there should be a talented, capable and trusted person in the rear to take charge of the overall situation.

Mobilizing troops from the rear is not a simple way to pull them over.

Around Cao Cao, there are Li Xi, Zhang Xiu and Yuan Shu. Although they may not dare to attack Cao Cao, they are not absolute at night, and the situation may soon change.

At the same time, Cao Cao ordered Zhang Fei to come. Originally, he wanted to separate Zhang Fei from Guan Yu. But at this time, he asked Zhang Fei to contribute and put it in other places. Cao Cao was not at ease.

Zhang Fei is a strong general, this time just to contribute.

Cao Cao readjusted his troops, while Zhang Yu and Yuan Shao surrounded xiapi city again.

Outside xiapi City, he was surrounded by the army again.

But the encirclement returned to encirclement, but there was no attack.

"Fengxiao, what idea did Cao Cao make? He didn't return to the rear."

Two days after the war, Cao Cao did not leave, which made Zhang Yu very strange.

Guo Jia pondered for a while, after analysis, said: "guess not good, may also want to make a comeback, if he came back, occupied Xuzhou territory will be divided up by us."

"No matter Cao Cao, unless he mobilizes the army again, there will be no threat. Now we have to consider how to attack xiapi city." Zhang Yu said.

Zhang Yu and Guo Jia began to study how to break down xiapi city. For the time being, only he and Yuan Shao were there.

After some analysis, Guo Jia said: "there are still more than 100000 troops in the city. If we attack by force, it will be very big, but we should be able to break the city in two or three months."

"Then go to find Yuan Shao and launch an attack together, so as to break the xiapi city as soon as possible, so as not to dream too much at night." Zhang Yu said.

Fortunately, the main targets of this attack were Cao Cao and Yuan Shao.

Cao Cao was the most unlucky because he had too much ambition and finally suffered a great loss.
