At this moment, Xuchang has been blocked all over the city, and the place where Liu Bei and the Xiliang army meet is not far from Xuchang, and soon the whole city knows the news.

Right now all the sergeants are ready to fight, to prevent night attack.

"My lord, Xu Chang will definitely be unable to withstand this battle. For your safety, please leave the city as soon as possible and head south tonight to find the prime minister."

Xun You looked at the two gorgeously dressed young men in front of him with a bitter expression, and said in a low voice:

"Information has come that the bandit army has just assembled today. Tonight should be counted, and the possibility of a night attack is very slim. Right now, tonight is the only chance!"

"If it's tomorrow, the bandit army will definitely besiege and attack the city, and the city will be blocked by then!"

These two are none other than Cao Cao's sons.

Cao Pi, Cao Zhi!

Cao Pi squinted his eyes, looked at the faintly flickering flames not far away, and said in a deep voice:

"Mr. Xun, do you know what city this Xuchang is?"

Xun You nodded silently and said:

"It's the prime minister's capital."

Cao Pi punched the city wall and continued:

"This is where my father worked hard, the basis for conquering the world, and the belief of our army!"

"If I abandon the city and flee at this time, leaving Xuchang to Liu Bei Ma Teng and others, how do you want me to face my father? How to face the soldiers of the three armies?!"

When Xun You heard this, he just lowered his head and said nothing.

However, Cao Zhi on the side frowned slightly and said:

"Second brother! It's not like you don't know the current situation. Right now, the two of us should go find my father first, and then gather an army. Can this 10,000+ bandit army hold Xuchang?"

"Besides, Mr. Xun is still guarding the capital right now. Maybe father's army is coming, and the bandit army has not captured Xuchang yet!"

"But we stay here, in case something happens, how do you ask Mr. Xun to explain to his father?"

Xun You nodded hastily, Cao Zhi's words can be regarded as saying that his heart is on the line.

Cao Pi sneered and said:

"Zijian, you are so greedy for life and afraid of death? If you are afraid of death, then you go first."

"I vow to live and die with Xu Chang. Even if I die in battle, my father will never blame Mr. Xun. Why should a man be afraid of death?"

Cao Zhi shook his head helplessly and said:

"Mr. Xun, my second brother has made up his mind, you can send me out of the city first, and now we should find my father first and then make a decision."

Xun You sighed, and responded:

"Here."

After all, Cao Zhi got into the carriage that Xun You had arranged long ago, and went out of the city all the way.

Xun You only looked at Cao Pi who was still staring at the bonfire of the bandit army not far away, and didn't know what to say for a while.

Cao Pi was right. Now that Cao Ang is dead, Cao Pi is now the eldest son of the prime minister, and he is the soul of the whole Xuchang. If Cao Pi left without saying a word, it would not be a good thing for the soldiers guarding the city.

At that time, morale will inevitably drop, and it will be even more difficult to deal with the bandit army.

But Xun You never expected that Cao Pi's courage and courage far exceeded his imagination!In such a situation where it is almost certain to die, he can still choose to stay with the city!

For a moment, Xun You seemed to see the shadow of the prime minister in Cao Pi.

Cao Pi narrowed his eyes and said to Xun You in a deep voice:

"Mr. Xun, you go to settle down the sergeants and change shifts for the night. Although the chance of night raids by the bandit army is extremely small now, we still cannot relax our vigilance."

"Let the sergeant fully rest, so that he can defend the city tomorrow."

Xun You burst into tears suddenly, and said:

"Follow the son's order, I will definitely issue this order!"

After finishing speaking, Xun You turned around and wanted to leave.

Cao Pi rubbed his chin, and called Xun You:

"Wait a minute, Mr. Xun, can you make a plan on how to retreat the emperor?"

Xun You was taken aback for a moment, then said:

"Don't worry, son, I have settled down and will escort the emperor out of the city later."

Cao Pi raised his hand:

"no!"

Hearing this, Xun You was a little taken aback.

Shouldn't the emperor be withdrawn?
