Sure enough, Bai Feng didn't turn back, but when did Liu Bei hook up with Xiliang?

Xuchang was besieged, which was more difficult for Cao Cao to accept than Jingzhou.

Jingzhou and Xuchang are completely different concepts. If you capture Jiangdong by yourself and form a north-south encirclement situation with the northern city, it is only a matter of time before you lose Jingzhou and fight back.

But Xuchang is different.

That is lifeblood!

Chapter 60 The Canary in the Cage

Cao Cao was furious, and immediately clutched the emergency report in his hand, and shouted violently:

"Big-eared thief, a common man, how dare you plot against me, Xuchang!"

Having said that, Cao Cao almost slumped down on the ground.

Fortunately, Cao Ren beside him had sharp eyesight and quick hands, and helped Cao Cao onto the couch.

Cao Cao took a deep breath, if Bai Feng hadn't completely cured his headache, he would have a splitting headache now.

"Prime Minister, Liu Bei led his army to invade Xuchang?!"

Cao Ren was also startled, seeing Cao Cao gradually regaining his composure, he asked in a deep voice.

Cao Cao nodded, acquiescing.

Cao Ren's eyes widened immediately:

"If I remember correctly, Xuchang's total army strength is less than [-], but Liu Bei has [-] troops. I don't know if he can hold it."

Cao Cao heaved a long sigh:

"10,000? The big-eared thief joined Ma Teng's Xiliang Army at some point, adding up to [-]+!"

Cao Ren couldn't sit still for a while, and didn't know what to say for a while, he hesitated and said:

"Prime Minister, then... shall we withdraw?"

For a long time, Cao Cao didn't speak. Rao Cao Cao didn't know what to do now.

Zhuge Liang's plan was very vicious, and he directly grabbed Cao Cao's lifeline.

Now Cao Cao is not worried about the safety of Cao Pi and Cao Zhi, but the relatives of the soldiers who are fighting here now!

You must know that most of Cao Jun's elite are residents of Xuchang. Although there are not many in number, they have been following since they created a great cause with Cao Cao, and they are at least at the centurion level.

If they learned that Xuchang was under siege, the battle on Jiangdong's side would be impossible!

But even if the battle of Chibi was won without telling the sergeants, even if Bai Feng had already gone to Xuchang with his troops, but only 10,000 tiger and leopard cavalry, how could they stop the pace of [-]+ iron cavalry? !

What if the sergeants fought hard and found their homes gone?

What is the great cause? !

Just as Cao Cao was wondering whether to retreat, the sound of hurried footsteps came again.

"Report! Prime Minister! Bai Yushi urgently reports!"

Cao Cao's eyes lit up immediately, and he said hastily:

"Zixiao, help me down!"

At this time, Xuchang.

After a day of fighting, the periphery of Xuchang has become a mountain of corpses, and the smell of blood and burning fills the air.

If it wasn't for the late night, in order to prevent reinforcements from raiding around, the Xiliang army temporarily retreated.

I'm afraid Xuchang will be broken if the Xiliang army attacks for another night.

At this time, Cao Pi was leaning against the city wall, and the sword in his hand was almost curled.

A day of slashing and killing, even though Cao Pi has practiced martial arts since he was a child, he can't help but be defeated by the enemy army, and he has already suffered a lot.

"Young master, you should go back and rest first."

Xun You quickly went up to the top of the city wall, bowed his hands to Cao Pi and said:

"The sky is getting brighter now, and the enemy's offensive must be even more ferocious today. If something happens to your son, it will affect the morale of our entire army."

Xun You looked at Cao Pi who was covered in sword wounds, and his eyes turned red.

How courageous is this Mr. Pi, standing on the front line and killing the enemy for a whole day! !

If Cao Pi hadn't set an example like this, the soldiers would not have such high morale to hold on to this first day.

Cao Pi waved his hand and said:

"No, I can still hold on. As I said, as long as I stay in Xuchang for a day, I will definitely not let the enemy enter Xuchang's city!"

Compared with Cao Zhi who fled the city earlier, Xun You felt that the Cao Pi in front of him had the shadow of a prime minister.

Xun You was speechless, but bowed deeply to Cao Pi, and then drew out his sword:

"Chen, I would like to accompany you, my son, to live and die with Xu Chang!"

Cao Pi looked at Xun You in surprise, shook his head and said:
