Chapter 1156
Chapter 1159 Surround Luoyang
Two days later, Zhang Liao and the others arrived dozens of miles away from Luoyang.
This can already attack Luoyang at any time, which can be said to be very dangerous.
Cao Cao was very worried and called his subordinates for discussion again.
At this time, Cao Cao’s complexion was very bad, and there was a white cloth wrapped around his head with medicine applied inside.
Cao Cao had a terrible headache, but he couldn’t leave it alone. The matter was too big.
“Hulaoguan and Mengjindu are in danger at any time, what do you think?” Cao Cao said weakly.
Several counsellors have the ability to reach the sky, but now, they have no ability to change all of this.
Cheng Yu suggested: “Lord, it is better to withdraw the army to Luoyang. With Luoyang’s defense, it is difficult for Datang to break in.”
It is very difficult. They withdrew back. There were at least 300,000 troops in the city.
With 300,000 troops, the defense is naturally very strong.
But there is only one lonely city left, how long can it last.
At this time they did not have much military ambition.
Thousands of people from Chang’an had migrated over, and they were already scared.
At this moment they suddenly discovered that Zhang Yu was so cute.
Zhang Yu doesn’t kill people, just loses 70% of his property.
Of course life is important.
Therefore, some aristocratic families already have the mentality of surrendering, and maybe they are secretly preparing to start an incident, at least they will not support Cao Cao much.
If you give money to Cao Cao, you are a fool. This is obviously impossible to win.
There is no chance of winning.
Cao Cao coughed a few times and said, “Okay, I will withdraw the troops from Meng Jin and Hulao Pass.”
Cao Cao drank a few sips of water to make himself feel better, and then said: “I know that Zhang Yu’s military front is unstoppable, Wancheng has failed, and Ang’er doesn’t know what’s going on. It’s just that I’m not reconciled. I have worked hard for a half of my life. Everything went to nothing.”
Cao Cao is a hero, so naturally he is very unwilling.
But there is no way to be reconciled.
Several counsellors can see the situation in front of them, and there is no reliable way to restore it.
Without external force, it is difficult to change the current situation.
But now they have no external force to borrow, unless they let the people in the grassland invade.
But they can’t do it.
Contact with foreign enemies, they can’t pass this level psychologically, not to mention it may not be useful.
Cao Cao ordered the troops from Hulaoguan and Meng Jindu to be withdrawn.
At this time, it is more dangerous not to withdraw.
The two places are not very insurance, and the Yellow River Natural Insurance is no longer a natural insurance.
Datang’s army had already encircled Luoyang, and once it was killed, the outside army would surely surrender soon.
After Cao Cao gave the order, he asked the soldiers to carry him to rest.
If he doesn’t rest, he will faint.
……
Speaking of Zhang Xiu and Cao Ang, they came out of Wancheng and no one was chasing them at first, but after they had gone for two days, they discovered that Datang’s army had allowed small groups of troops to occupy some dangerous places.
For example, hundreds of people occupy the top of a hill, or hundreds of people occupy the ground on the corner of the road.
There are thousands of them, and of course they can kill them, but in some places it takes a long time.
These people occupy these places are not without defense.
Several people went around several places in a row.
If you don’t make a detour, you must kill it.
“Lord, we have more and more deserters. If this continues, there are probably not many people in Luoyang.”
After only three days out, Zhang Xiu found that more than a thousand people had escaped.
Cao Ang knew in his heart, but he couldn’t do anything.
Doing too much at this time may cause the army to break up more easily.
“We don’t meet the enemy along the way. Go back as soon as possible. There may be an ambush ahead. We try our best to drive at night.”
Cao Ang and the others walked for three days, avoiding some roads, but they were still dangerous.
In the next few days, Cao Ang and the others marched at night, then rested during the day, and tried their best to walk the trails. There were several thrills along the way.
At this time, there were only more than two thousand people following him.
These two thousand people were relatively diehard, and no one escaped for a long time.
More than two thousand people, there are no dangers along the way.
It was chased by Datang’s army, but there was no battle.
What Cao Ang didn’t know was that this was actually arranged by Zhao Yun, and he was just driving Cao Ang and the others away from the place where they deviated from his own food path.
Zhang Yu had Cao Ang back to Luoyang for a purpose, so Zhao Yun would not chase him down, otherwise Cao Ang and the others would not stay until now.
Zhao Yun began to follow Cao Ang and the others, as long as they didn’t attack his own grain path, they would not take action.
However, with their more than two thousand people, it is not a big threat to the future.
There are guards who transport the grain and grass, and it is not the entire batch.
They cut off two batches of grain and grass and it didn’t matter much.
Cao Ang and the others slowly approached Luoyang, but the situation in Luoyang changed drastically again.
Cao Cao sent people to withdraw all the people from Hulaoguan and Mengjindu and defend Luoyang.
Luoyang, this famous ancient capital.
At this time, there were hundreds of thousands of troops inside and hundreds of thousands of troops outside.
Zhang Liao sent troops to surround Luoyang directly, while Gao Shun and Zhou Yu also went outside Luoyang.
An army of hundreds of thousands surrounded Luoyang.
Zhang Liaosheng account.
“Generals, there is not much suspense about the overall situation now. I am waiting here for the arrival of the lord. I will persuade you to surrender first.
Zhang Liao didn’t start to attack Luoyang for credit.
After all, this Luoyang city was once the capital of the country, and it was very strong.
Zhang Liao began to assign tasks.
Surrounded by people on all sides, Zhang Liao chose an echelon to build a camp.
One was built at three miles, one was built five miles away, and the main force was built ten miles away.
A total of more than 500,000 troops surrounded Luoyang City.
As usual, Datang’s army began to take over the counties around Luoyang.
Part of Zhou Yu’s army ferryed at Mengjin, and part of it stopped directly on the other side of the Yellow River, and did not rush into the battlefield.
He is not like him, as long as the Hulao Pass is broken, there is no need for him to support him in the upper reaches of the Yellow River.
Tai Shici took 50,000 soldiers and horses to Chang’an.
Chang’an also has to defend and attack.
At this time, Ma Chao attacked Chang’an. Although he did not make a fierce attack, he kept swimming and did not leave.
The situation in the whole world is extremely clear, and the situation can be seen without analysis.
Zhang Yu also started to act, he took Ma Yunlu to Luoyang.
In a few days Zhang Yu made a good faint king, mixed with Ma Yunlu all day, why the emperor did not come early, Zhang Yu hasn’t dealt with anything for a few days in a row, and used it all. Come hang out with Ma Yunlu.
He doesn’t want to deal with too many things, so he can leave it to his subordinates as much as possible.
“Cao Mengde, Cao Mengde, you are one of the heroes of the ages. I don’t know what choice you will make this time.”
The closer Zhang Yu got to Luoyang, he kept thinking about Cao Cao’s final destiny.
Zhang Yu was very reluctant to kill Cao Cao, but he had already become the emperor and must be killed.
For example, he did not want to kill Sun Ce, but Sun Ce also became emperor, so he must die.
It was Cao Ang that made him not make any determination.
Sun Ce doesn’t have a prince, and he will be over if he is killed. His younger brother Sun Quan is not Sun Quan in history and has no influence.
