Chapter 131
Jia Xu's plan made Wang Mang very satisfied!
This matter was quickly arranged.
In the past few days, Yangping City has also been very calm, and Wang Mang's army has not shown the slightest sign of attack.
This abnormal scene made Cao Cao suspicious.
On this day, Cao Cao called Guo Jia to his study for discussion.
"Fengxiao, why did you say that Wang Mang's army did not move? Their soldiers and horses are far superior to our army, if they attack, although they will pay the price, our army will not be able to stop it.
At the end, Cao Cao couldn't help but have a sigh on his face, quite a heroic twilight look.
Guo Jia couldn't help but sigh when he saw his lord like this: "Don't worry, my lord, Wang Mang's army doesn't attack, maybe he is trying to besiege our army and make our army disheartened."
It's just that it's not a long-term strategy to go on like this, and our army's food and grass can't last for a month!"
Of course, Cao Cao also knew this, and smiled bitterly when he heard this: "I have already asked Le to go into the city to deal with this matter, and I hope that the people and families in the city can share some grain." As
soon as he finished speaking, he heard hurried footsteps outside.
"My lord, my lord, something is wrong!" Xu Chu's thunderous voice reached the ears of Cao Cao and Guo Jia.
Cao Cao's face changed greatly when he heard this, and it must be a big deal to make a strong general like Xu Chu shout.
With a frown, Cao Cao rushed out of the study and came to the courtyard.
Looking at Xu Chu, who was sweating profusely, Cao Cao's face sank, and he asked, "What happened to make you scream so much?" "
My lord, I just received news that Wang Mang sent a legion to attack Xuchang, and now Xuchang is in danger, this is a
distress letter from General Cao Hong!" Xu Chu didn't care about his sweating profusely, and handed over the distress letter from Cao Hong.
Cao Cao's face changed greatly when he heard this, and he hurriedly took the letter and looked at it.
After reading it, Cao Cao's face suddenly turned pale.
"Fengxiao, look at how this matter is handled!" Cao Cao handed the distress letter to Guo Jia beside him.
After Guo Jia read it, his brows tightened: "Now Xuchang only has 10,000 soldiers and horses led by General Cao Hong, even if Cheng Yu has advice, it must be difficult to resist the attack of Wu Yunzhao with a legion."
It seems that Wang Mang has not attacked in the past few days, just waiting for news from Xuchang's side, he is trying to use the battle situation in Xuchang to affect the morale of our army
!" "Hmph!"
Cao Cao snorted coldly: "This Wang Mang is really scheming, and he dares to sneak attack when there is no one in Xuchang." At
that moment, there was another sound of hurried footsteps outside the courtyard.
"Meng De, Brother Meng De!" Sun Jian's anxious and worried tone came from outside.
As soon as Cao Cao heard that it was Sun Jian's voice, he and Guo Jia glanced at each other, thinking that something had happened to Sun Jian too?
Just when the two were surprised, Sun Jian rushed in in a hurry.
"Wang Mang actually sent someone to besiege my Jianye, and now Jianye may be taken by Li Cunxiao at any time, how can this be good!"
Sun Jian was so anxious that he told him what he had encountered as soon as he came in.
Cao Cao didn't think it was anything when he heard him say this at first.
But after thinking about it, I suddenly felt that something was wrong.
No, why is Wu Yunzhao attacking his Xuchang with all his might, and Li Cunxiao is just besieging Jianye?
Thinking of this, Cao Cao looked at Sun Jian with a puzzled expression: "Wentai, Li Cunxiao didn't attack, but just besieged?"
"Yes, look, this is a letter for help from Han Dang!" Sun Jian thought that Cao Cao didn't believe it, so he handed over the letter of help sent by Han Dang.
Cao Cao took the letter of request for help with a blue face, and really found that Han Dang's letter for help said that it was a siege!
"Hmph!"
Cao Cao snorted angrily: "This damn Wang Mang actually sent people to attack my Xuchang and your Jianye at the same time." "
What, your Xuchang was also attacked by Wang Mang's troops?" Sun Jian reacted when he heard this.
No wonder he saw Cao Cao's face as soon as he came in, it turned out that the other party was in the same trouble as him.
The difference is that his Jianye is only under siege, and it seems that the situation is not as anxious as Cao Cao's.
"Yes, my Xuchang was attacked by Wu Yunzhao with all his might, and I am afraid that the city will be broken in less than ten days!"
Cao Cao stared at Sun Jian with a cold face: "It's Wentai, your Jianye, why is it just besieged, not attacked
?" Cao Cao is more and more wrong, why did Wang Mang beat his Xuchang instead of Sun Jian's Jianye?
"Huh?"
Sun Jian is not a fool either, seeing that Cao Cao's face was wrong and his tone was also yin and yang, he couldn't help but snort coldly: "What does Meng De mean by this?
Could it be that Meng De thought that I had an affair with Wang Mang, so he showed mercy to my Jianye?"
Sun Jian was also a violent temper, where could he stand Cao Cao's yin and yang strange tone, and he directly scolded him.
Originally, he was in a bad mood because Jianye was besieged, but now Cao Cao is still suspicious, where will he give Cao Cao a good look!
On the side, Guo Jia saw that the atmosphere between the two sides was tense, and he couldn't help but hurriedly stand in the middle of
the two to play a round: "Sun Taishou, my family doesn't mean this, it's a big matter, and the two sides should discuss the right measures after this matter."
"No need!" Sun Jian sneered: "Since you Xuchang is also in trouble, and my Jianye is also besieged, then take care of your own affairs!"
After speaking, Sun Jian shook off the robe behind him and turned to leave!
