Three Kingdoms: At the beginning, Cao Cao assassinated Dong, and I was abandoned

Dingtao Guan Yu defended, he believed that Guan Yu would be able to defend, and no one of the generals around Cao Cao could resist Guan Yu.

Yin Kui said meaningfully: "Is Liuzhou Mu pinning his hopes on Dingtao's defenders?"

"How do you know?" Liu Bei was surprised. Did they see his thoughts?

"Hehe, Dingtao is the safest route for Liu Zhoumu to retreat to Jingzhou. Not only do I know it, but our several great advisers in Jizhou know it, and Cao Cao's advisers also know it. That's why Cao Cao personally attacked Dingtao, waiting for Liu Zhoumu to fall into the trap. .”

Du Xi asked in horror: "You mean that Cao Cao set up an ambush there?"

"How can Cao Cao let go of such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity? How many people Liu Zhoumu can take away is not up to him."

Yin Kui looked at the two with a smile, and the two looked panicked and sweated profusely.

This Cao Shuo is really terrible, and he can be counted as Cao Cao's back-up.

Du Xi asked: "It seems that Marquis Wei has thought of another way for us!"

Yin Kui said proudly: "Of course, it's very safe and unimpeded. Baggage, people, and equipment can all pass through!"

Du Xi asked suspiciously: "Are you planning to let us pass by Yuan Shu's territory?"

"No comment, if you can sell [-] coffins from our Zhen's Chamber of Commerce, I'll tell you where you came from!"

"I don't care, one hundred thousand?"

Liu Bei stared at Yin Kui in horror, this shit must be too cruel.

"How much is a coffin?" Du Xi asked in a trembling voice.

Yin Kui said with a beaming smile: "If Guan Yu and Zhang Fei can be allowed to serve our army for three years, I won't take a single point!"

"Delusion!"

Even if Liu Bei took Guan Yu and Zhang Fei out of the siege, he would not abandon them.

"Zhao Yan and Du Junshi are also fine!"

"impossible!"

Du Xi smiled wryly in his heart. They really had nothing to trade with Cao Shuo. One hundred thousand coffins was not a small amount. The coffins currently on the market cost tens of thousands of dollars even if they were of low quality.

Yin Kui said helplessly: "Liu Zhoumu has nothing to trade with our army, how can he buy a coffin worth hundreds of millions of dollars?"

Liu Bei looked at Yin Kui with a dark expression on his face and said, "Why do you insist on selling coffins? Why don't you sell anything else?"

Yin Kui explained: "Because our army never trades at a loss!"

Liu Bei said with the attitude of a dead pig not afraid of boiling water: "Then we won't buy it!"

"Then I will take my leave. I believe Cao Cao will be very happy to buy these coffins and where they are located."

Yin Kui strode out of Liu Bei's big tent, and Liu Bei stopped him suddenly.

"Wait!"

There was a strange smile on the corner of Yin Kui's mouth, then quickly regained his composure, turned around, and asked, "What else is there for Liu Zhoumu?"

"Except for my subordinates, watch and dance!"

Liu Bei can only compromise, he has no room to bargain now, if Cao Cao blocks their retreat, then he can only rely on Cao Cao.

But if he doesn't buy Cao Shuo's account, will Cao Cao keep himself?Will Cao Shuo allow Cao Cao to keep himself?

"You can borrow the generals under Liu Zhoumu for a few days!"

"How many days?" Liu Bei looked at Yin Kui warily.

He began to think about what Cao Shuo was going to do with his people.

Yin Kui replied: "Master Zhou Mu, don't think about it, you won't guess it. My lord has already explained his bottom line. If Zhou Mu can let General Guan lead a group of five thousand elite soldiers to escort a group of people to Jing County, the ten Ten thousand coffins, my lord will give them directly to Mr. State Shepherd."

"Escort people to Jing County? Who is it?" Liu Bei asked hastily.

He had to be careful about this matter. Cao Shuo had just transported a group of people from Nanyang County. If Cao Shuo transported people from Runan County at this time, he would be playing a fart.

"Did Liu Zhoumu agree?"

"Why is my second brother escorting? Others can't?"

"My lord has heard that General Guan is loyal, and there is only one person in Yuzhou that my lord can trust. Therefore, apart from Guan Yu, my lord will not trust anyone else."

"Humph!"

Liu Bei's face was livid with anger, this Cao Shuo was so hateful, he actually looked down on his character and conduct.

"General Guan led [-] cavalry and retreated to Ye County, Nanyang County. Our people will contact him there!"

"Retreat to Ye County?"

Liu Bei was terrified, retreating so soon?

"Even if Liu Zhoumu withdraws from Chen State now, it is too late to go to Ye County, so Guan Yu retreats to Ye County, just helping our army escort a group of people. The way for you to withdraw from Runan is not in Ye County."

"Then how will Yun Chang come back when he arrives in Jing County?"

Yin Kui said speechlessly: "Guan Yu led five thousand cavalry, Cao Cao shouldn't be able to stop him, right?"

"Let me think about it!"

"Liu Zhoumu, if Dingtao falls, we can make a deal with Cao Cao, tell him another passage, or block you in Chen Guo."

"you……"

Liu Bei and Du Xi looked at each other, it seemed that the other party had come prepared, and they were determined to eat them.

"Okay, I agree!"

"Come here, give Yun Chang an order to lead [-] cavalry to Ye County, and also ask Zhao Yan and General Liao Hua to withdraw from Dingtao and defend Dingying!"

Yin Kui continued: "I suggest that Liuzhou Mu start transferring people to Pingyu now!"

"Pingyu?"

"When we arrive in Pingyu, we will contact Mr. Zhou Mu."

"When will the coffin be delivered?"

Yin Kui said speechlessly: "Could it be that Zhou Mu is in a hurry to use it now?"

"you……"

"Our army has always kept its word, and the coffin has been prepared for you!"

Chapter 210 The Whereabouts of Guan Yu

Cao Cao of Dingtao, who was attacking, woke up and found that Dingtao's defenders had disappeared.

He thought that with Guan Yu around, it would be a tough battle. After all, none of his subordinates could stand up to Guan Yu.

So Cao Cao just ordered his soldiers to attack Chengci directly, instead of letting them fight Guan Yu single-handedly.

"Feng Xiao, what's going on?"

Cao Cao stood outside the empty city of Dingtao, looking at Guo Jia in bewilderment.

Guo Jia shook his head. He didn't know why the defenders retreated suddenly, and they withdrew so eagerly and without delay.

Overnight, the army secretly withdrew from Yingchuan, and Yan County didn't defend, and disappeared directly into Yingchuan.

Cao Cao summoned Cao Hong and asked, "Did you see Guan Yu on the city wall yesterday?"

Cao Hong said dejectedly, "My lord, have you forgotten? Yesterday Guan Yu went out of the city to sneak attack on our army's siege team, and was shot back by our army's volley of arrows."

Guo Jia had an ominous premonition that Liu Beijun's sudden retreat might be carrying out some conspiracy.

"My lord, we want to find out where Dingtao's defenders have gone."

Cao Cao said: "The people in Yan County have been transferred by them. It seems that the opponent has planned for a long time. Cao Hong, you lead [-] cavalry and advance forward. Be careful not to be ambushed by the opponent."

"promise!"

Cao Cao left [-] defenders in Dingtao and Yan County each, and then led the army, followed Cao Hong, and marched all the way towards Runan.

After crossing Yan County and entering Runan, Cao Cao found that there were no defenders in Zhaoling, Zhengqiang, and the people in the city were all gone.

Cao Cao didn't dare to let the army go deeper. The other five armies were still in a stalemate. He had to wait a while to avoid being encircled by Liu Bei.

Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia and asked, "Feng Xiao, did you see Liu Bei's scheme?"

Guo Jia explained uncertainly: "Master, the other party's whereabouts are too weird. According to my guess, Liu Bei should have hidden the people somewhere, and then fought to the death with our army."

Their plan to divide Liu Bei has been successful. It stands to reason that Liu Bei should stick to Dingtao, guarding this only way of retreat. After all, Guan Yu of the garrison Changsha was directly transferred to Dingtao.

But Guan Yu seemed to have gone through a cutscene in Dingtao, where he was majestic for three days, and then suddenly disappeared.

"Report, my lord, our scouts found Liu Bei's defenders in Dingying. The defenders are Liu Bei's military advisor Zhao Yan, and young general Liao Hua."

"Ok?"

Cao Cao frowned, Zhao Yan went to Dingying, where did Guan Yu go?

Cao Cao hurriedly asked, "Can you see Guan Yu in Dingying City?"

"no!"

"This……"

Cao Cao couldn't understand Liu Bei's deployment more and more. Could it be that there are capable people around Liu Bei again?

Or is it that the traitor used this to sell his equipment and then give advice to Liu Bei?

Guo Jia said in horror: "My lord, we need to send a large number of scouts to detect Guan Yu's movements. Guan Yu is a fierce tiger. If our army goes deep into Runan and Guan Yu suddenly detours behind him, wouldn't Chen Liu be in danger?"

Guo Jia's worries were not unreasonable. Chen Liu's defenders were [-] behind, let alone the defenders. They were not the enemy of Guan Yu at all. Once Guan Yu went to the rear to make trouble, they would have to retreat.

"not good!"

Cao Cao also realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly said: "Let the entire scout battalion be dispatched, and we must find out Guan Yu's movements."

"promise!"

Just in case, Cao Cao withdrew from Runan, let Xia Houyuan lead an army of [-] troops to garrison Yan County, and stationed himself in Dingtao.

Two hours later, Cao Cao's scouts finally discovered an anomaly in the direction of Wuyang.

"My lord, I found a large number of soldiers and horses passing by in the direction of Wuyang, and the leader of them has a red face and long beard, and a big knife in his hand!"

"Guan Yu?" Cao Cao wiped off his cold sweat.

Wuyang, that's on the west side of Dingtao, the only way Liu Bei must pass, he even forgot to send someone to check.

He thought Guan Yu had retreated to Runan, but he did not expect to occupy Wuyang in advance.

"How many troops does Guan Yu have?" Guo Jia asked hastily.

"I don't know, but according to the hunters in the mountains, they are all cavalry!"

"My grass..."

Cao Cao was so shocked that his hands and feet were cold. Are they all cavalry?This is obviously going to sneak attack.

Guo Jia thought for a while and said, "My lord, Guan Yu's army either went to Jingzhou to rescue troops, or retreated for Liu Bei, led the cavalry to attack the rear of our army, and then forced our army to retreat to make way for Liu Bei!"

Cao Cao was surprised and said, "Zhao Yan and Du Xi will never come up with such a plan. Could it be that Liu Bei's subordinates are capable again?"

Guo Jia agreed: "Very likely!"

"Report!"

Seeing that Tan Ma had come back from the west, Cao Cao hurriedly asked, "Is there any news about Guan Yu?"

"My lord, Guan Yu passed by Wuyang and made some supplements in the city, then left Wuyang and headed west!"

"This……"

Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia suspiciously, what kind of game was this?Isn't stationing in Wuyang better than stationing in Ye County?

Such a good location, he actually gave up directly.

Guo Jia analyzed: "My lord, it is very likely that Guan Yu went to Jingzhou to ask for help. Maybe Liu Bei and Liu Biao have formed an alliance."

Cheng Yu said: "Is it possible for Guan Yu to go to Luyang, then enter Yingchuan from his father's city, and harass our army's rear?"

Cao Cao wiped off his cold sweat again. If Guan Yu attacked Fucheng, he could directly attack Yangdi.

"Come on, hurry up and inform the defenders of the father's city, telling them to take strict precautions, and never let Guan Yu enter Yingchuan from here."
