Chapter 292 Breakthrough
Cao Cao put down his letter and cursed: "The Tang thieves actually scolded me as the Yellow Turban thief!"
Although he scolded Tang Xiu, he was also very afraid of this general of the dynasty and the world's number one general. Cao Cao remembered Tang Xiu's magical power at Hulao Pass.
The civil and military officials under Cao Cao also had different opinions.
The military generals are basically in charge of fighting, needless to say, because the generals of the Cao family, such as Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Cao Xiu, Cao Chun, Cao Zhen, and the generals of the Xiahou surname Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Hui, Xiahou He, etc., are all considered members of the Cao family.
These generals all advocated revenge for Cao Cao's father, not to mention being able to capture the wealthy Xuzhou.
However, the civil officials and counselors had different opinions.
For example, Xun Yu and Xun You were still concerned about the Han court. The reason why they chose Cao Cao as their lord was that Cao Cao had the possibility of supporting the Han country.
The reason why they did not choose Tang Xiu, the general of the dynasty, as their lord, to support the Han Dynasty, was because Tang Xiu was too famous before, and the people in the world criticized them as traitors and traitors!
Tang Xiu was also just rectified and became a great hero who endured humiliation and was a great hero who had to endure humiliation and was shortly after he became the general.
This is the negative effect of previous reputation. I missed the two top civil officials and counselors, Xun Yu and Xun You. Otherwise, with Tang Xiu’s actions and reputation today, it would be possible to recruit these two people, or let them take the initiative to vote.
Xun Yu and Xun You were concerned about the Han Dynasty and believed that it was not appropriate to go to war with Tang Xiu, the general of the court.
Otherwise, Cao Cao would be directly criticized as a "traitor"!
But Guo Jia, Cheng Yu and other strategists do not think so.
They had no loyalty or awe to the Han court, and believed that strength was respected in today's chaotic times. Naturally, they mainly focused on conquering Xuzhou. As for the infamous such as "traitors", they didn't need to pay attention to it.
Wasn’t Tang Xiu also a traitor or a traitor before? In a blink of an eye, he became a great hero and hero who endured humiliation and endured humiliation?
As long as you have the ability to dominate the world, how can you care about these things?
Moreover, Cao Cao could also call Tang Xiu a "traitor" in turn and control the government, which was equivalent to Dong Zhuo before.
The civil and military officials under his command had different opinions. After Cao Cao pondered for a moment, he suddenly cursed: "Who is Tang Xiu? A traitor! A traitor! You dare to persuade me with a letter!?"
As soon as these words came out, all the civil and military officials and generals under their command understood what Cao Cao meant and continued to attack Xuzhou!
Xun Yu and Xun You frowned, while Guo Jia, Cheng Yu and other strategists and generals all showed joy.
Cao Cao was even more ruthless. In order to express his determination, he directly ordered the envoy to behead him and ordered his men to attack Xuzhou City with all their might.
Guo Jia stepped forward and advised: "Tang Xiuyuan came to rescue him, first be polite and then the army. The lord should answer him with kind words and be slow to his heart. Then advance troops to attack the city, and the city can be broken."
Cao Cao followed his words and spared the life of the envoy. After entertaining him, he compiled a letter and brought it back to Tang Xiu.
Inside Xuzhou City.
Tang Xiu looked at Cao Cao's letter and frowned slightly.
Although Cao Cao's letter expressed good intentions, he did not mean to withdraw his troops at all. How could Tang Xiu not understand Cao Cao's thoughts?
It seems that Cao Cao's ambitions are too inflated. With the intention of competing for the world, he no longer has the intention to serve the Han court and support the Han country.
However, the more than 200,000 Qingzhou soldiers outside the city are not easy to deal with.
Originally, there were only 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers under Tao Qian's command, and they could not hide.
Even with the more than 30,000 troops brought by Tang Xiu, all of them were 50,000 or 60,000 troops. Faced with the fierce attack of more than 200,000 Qingzhou soldiers, it was afraid that it would be difficult to resist.
Cao Cao's army was short of food and continued to occupy the wealthy Xuzhou city, which was even more inevitable for Xuzhou.
This will be a bloody battle!
Even Tang Xiu had no good idea in the face of this attack.
The more than 200,000 Qingzhou soldiers outside the city stood still and asked him to cut. I don’t know when the chopping would be done, let alone a well-equipped army?
Even if Tang Xiu fought out, he would have to die of exhaustion in Cao's camp!
Moreover, since he raided the Xiliang Army's tent and killed Li Ru, Li Jue, Guo Si and others, the deeds of his great general have caused a sensation in the world.
All the princes were also wary of his "beheading operation", and the generals and the generals' business were incomplete.
Moreover, Tang Xiu's deeds of leading 20,000 Western Liang Iron Cavalry and horse-drawn camping in the joint camp were even more feared by all the princes. He had already arranged the military camp like an iron-opening, and was wary of Tang Xiu's "cavalry assault."
Before, Tang Xiu led an army of 30,000 to directly enter Xuzhou City, which was unexpected, and it was a rampant, not a joint venture.
Now the "Mata Joint Camp" trick is not good!
Even if there are 800 soldiers in the camp who can hang out in the Cao camp outside, they will probably only consume a small part of the Cao army's military strength, and eventually they will turn the camp into the camp!
After Tang Xiu thought about it for a while, he then formulated a plan.
If you want Cao Cao to withdraw his troops, you can only cause a fire in Cao Cao's backyard!
Cao Cao's backyard is his old nest, a Yanzhou in Shandong, and it is also the location where Cao Cao started his career by collecting 300,000 Qingzhou Yellow Turbans and a million people.
Tang Xiu ordered Taishi Ci, and Guan Hai was the two generals, and commanded the troops and horses in Xuzhou to defend the city.
Gao Shun was also ordered to lead eight hundred soldiers of the camp to take charge of the army, assist Taishi Ci and Guan Hai to defend the city. Once the city gate is in a hurry, he will support the city gate first.
Tang Xiu himself opened the Xuzhou city gate directly and rode his horse out.
Cao Cao had just replied to Tang Xiu, preparing to follow Guo Jia's plan to "answer it kindly and be arrogant" and then raid the city at night.
However, after reading the letter, Tang Xiu actually came out of Xuzhou City directly.
Tang Xiu had already taken out the Yitian Sword, not the general's sword. He suddenly came out of the city and was even more surprised and rushed into Cao's army camp.
Of course, he didn't want to pacify Cao's army with his own strength. More than 200,000 Qingzhou soldiers would stand and let him chop him down. He would be exhausted to death!
He is going to raid out!
Cao's camp immediately became in chaos!
The horse army and infantry were coming towards Tang Xiu like a tide.
Tang Xiu also experienced the so-called "Zhao Zilong is full of courage" for the first time.
The surroundings were full of Cao's army, and Zhao Zilong, in history, entered and exited the Cao army seven times. In order to find Mrs. Mi and Liu Bei's son A Dou, who was lost in the chaos, he killed millions of Cao's troops. Finally, he protected the latter leader Liu Chan. Not only did he successfully break through, but he also killed dozens of Cao Cao's generals.
Tang Xiu's combat power is naturally much better than Zhao Zilong.
Now he holds the Sword of the Heavenly Sword in his hand, and he is also killing all directions!
On the contrary, the generals of the Cao army did not dare to step forward, for fear of being killed in one round!
Tang Xiu killed for a while and broke through from afar.
Cao Cao and his civil and military officials watched Tang Xiu leave from a distance, with each looking complicated.
Cao Cao sighed, "It's really an unparalleled god!"
