The Strongest Overlord of the Three Kingdoms

Liu saw the situation, so he stopped pursuing, temporarily stopped the flags and drums, 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 [-] soldiers and horses to station three miles outside the city, always on guard.

What Liu Ke predicted was correct, there is indeed no sleep in the city tonight.

But it's not about going out of the city to attack the camp, but to discuss the next countermeasures.

Now Cao Cao is trapped in Yinpan City, in a very dangerous situation.

Although he has never seen Liu Ke's boulder cannon and god arm crossbow, his subordinate Cao Hong has experienced it with his own eyes.

To this day, it's been a nightmare.

Therefore, Cao Hong tried his best to dissuade Cao Cao, he must not stay in the city for a long time, so as not to be defeated by the opponent's boulder cannon.

Although Cao Cao didn't think so about the boulder cannon that Cao Hong said.

As the inventor of the thunderbolt car, he absolutely does not believe that there is such a powerful weapon with such a long range.

Usually Cao Cao has always boasted that his Thunderbolt car is unparalleled, and he is complacent.

Now that a weapon far surpassing it has come out, how can he accept it?

However, Cao Hong's words were so convincing and he swears, many people in the venue have begun to believe it.

And Jiang Ji, Wang Lang and other counselors also discouraged Cao Cao from breaking through as soon as possible, and returning to the northern plateau was the best policy.

Although there is Yinpan City guarding it now, but the opponent has a large number of people, and it will definitely not last long.

The most important thing is that at that time, in order to prevent the here from being occupied by the enemy, the grain and grass in the city were transported to Beiyuan Yiju for storage.

With the current reserves in the city, it is only enough for Cao Cao's army to last for five days.

In other words, within five days, Liu Ke must be repelled and the grain road restored.

Either break through as soon as possible and return to Beiyuan, other than that, there is no third choice.

Running out of food within five days was like a knife hanging over Cao Cao's head, so he had to be cautious.

In fact, Cao Cao still wanted to choose the first method in his heart, which was to repel Liu Ke.

But the two consecutive days of fighting made him understand that this possibility has been reduced to almost impossible.

Even Cao Cao could only accept this reality helplessly.

Then in this way, he can only break through as soon as possible and return to Beiyuan.

The so-called late makes changes, if Cao Cao hesitated and did not break out of the encirclement before the opponent surrounded Yinpan heavily.

It's getting harder and harder to break through later.

Another point, if Liu Ke had predicted his plan in advance.

If he occupied Beiyuan early, he would have no choice but to capture it without a fight.

Even if Liu Ke besieges but does not attack, after five days without food, his soldiers will inevitably cause mutiny.

I saw Cao Cao's face was cloudy and uncertain, as if he was engaged in a fierce ideological struggle.

In the end, he finally made up his mind, gave up Yinpan, broke through and returned to Beiyuan.

There is a supply of food and grass over there, and then defend according to the danger to defeat Liu Ke.

When the generals heard Cao Cao's order, they all breathed a sigh of relief secretly. Speaking of which, they were really afraid that Cao Cao's head would get hot, and they insisted on a decisive battle with Liu Ke.

The idea has been made, and Cao Cao is not a procrastinator, so he immediately started to make arrangements, planning to break out of the siege tonight, but the other party's decision was unexpected.

To break through, someone needs to break the rear, otherwise, if the opponent finds out and chases after them, the army will immediately collapse for thousands of miles.

The task of breaking the post can be described as a narrow escape, and it is definitely not something that can be easily undertaken.

Therefore, after Cao Cao said who was willing to take the initiative to invite Ying, no one in the hall took the initiative to speak.

A trace of disappointment flashed in Cao Cao's eyes, he never thought that his subordinates had lost their blood, leaving only those who were greedy for life and afraid of death.

Cao Hong keenly noticed the look in Cao Cao's eyes, hesitated for a while, and finally walked out of the queue.

"Your Majesty, the last time Cao Hong was thrown out of the gate, His Majesty spared his death. Every time Hong thinks about it, he is always ashamed.

Although Hong is not talented, he is willing to help the army and protect the king from danger! "

Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard this.

But he cherished Cao Hong's talent a little bit, and couldn't bear him to take over such a dangerous task.

But now, except for Cao Hong, no one has stood up.

After Cao Cao hesitated, he could only nod his head and said, "Zi Lian's courage is commendable, and I really admire him! This mission is very dangerous, and I hope Zi Lian can turn danger into good luck.

Solitude is waiting for you in Beiyuan! "

Cao Cao's concern also brought tears to Cao Hong's eyes. He nodded vigorously and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the general will successfully complete the mission and return to his command as soon as possible!"

Cao Cao nodded affirmatively, and then instructed Cao Hong to move to the south gate to prepare for the five thousand soldiers.

Under the arrangement of Cao Cao, 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 Tonight.
