Chapter 183 Pain, Headwind
At the end of September, Gengxu Day, avoid traveling.

After Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, Xi Yu, who was in Xuchang, spent more time in Xuchang school.

A few days ago, the news that Cao Cao's army was about to turn back had already come back, and Xi Yu was not at all surprised by this.

Proclaiming Yuan Shu emperor was not an easy task for Xuchang as a whole.

Cao Cao naturally couldn't tolerate it.

Giving up on continuing to attack the Hanoi area, turning around and preparing to come back to deal with Yuan Shu, Xi Yu had already expected this.

And this time in Xuchang, because of the news of Yuan Shu's proclaiming the emperor, the original hidden undercurrent seemed to have calmed down a lot.

This made Xi Zhicai feel a lot easier.

Rest and take a bath today, in the dramatist's house.

Xi Yu never invited, but Guo Jia, Jia Xu and others gathered together.

In the courtyard, the wind at the end of autumn brings a bit of coolness to the bones. Guo Jia is holding a jug in his hand, watching the chess game between Xi Zhicai and Jia Xu.

Xi Yu was lost in thought at the side. He was looking at the personnel list of Xuchang School at this moment.

Just now, a slightly unexpected name came into his sight.

Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Dan.

When seeing these two names at a glance, Xi Yu was a little surprised.

Although after this name, some famous people such as Sima Yi also appeared on the school list.

However, Zhuge's name is still very important to Xi Yu.

He didn't expect to open a school by himself, and today he even attracted the future Prime Minister of Shu Han.

However, despite some surprises, Xi Yu no longer had the enthusiasm for historical celebrities that he had in the beginning.

After seeing that Zhuge Liang's hometown is now in Xuzhou, Xi Yu somewhat understood.

When Lao Cao took Xuzhou, there was no massacre in the original history. Naturally, Zhuge Liang did not leave Xuzhou with his uncle and went to Jingzhou.

Immediately afterwards, deviations began to appear.

It is quite reasonable to appear on the school list now.

"Guo Fengxiao, can you shut up!"

Xi Yu was thinking about finding a chance to meet the future Prime Minister of Shu Han when he had time, when Xi Zhi suddenly raised his head and scolded Guo Jia.

It's really that Guo Jia's kung fu is too disgusting.

Xi Zhicai and Jia Xu are playing chess, and Guo Jia who is next to him interjects a sentence to the left and a sentence to the right!
The other two played well, he said one hand here, and gave pointers there.

I was really happy, but the faces of the two players who were playing chess turned dark.

Jia Xu was steady, although Guo Jia interrupted from time to time, but he was old and his temperament was not as strong as when he was young.

He just had a dark face, but Xi Zhicai beside him couldn't bear it.

At this time, he raised his head and cursed at Guo Jia.

The latter took a sip of wine into his mouth, and grinned upwards at the corner of his mouth, but he just smiled and did not refute.

At this moment, Xi Lao suddenly led Xun Yu all the way from outside the door.

When the two came from the corridor, Xun Yu's whole body exuded this anxiety.

The usual steady pace, this time unexpectedly a little slow, as if he was about to run.

Seeing Xi Yu and others sitting in the pavilion not far from the corridor, Xun Yu couldn't help but took a deep breath.

Seeing Xun Yu coming in a hurry, Kung Fu Xi Zhicai also put down the chess pieces in his hand.

It's really meaningless that this chess was messed up by that guy Guo Jia.

Jia Xu was also in the same mood. After putting down the chess piece in his hand, he slowly picked up the teacup from the side.

"Fengyi, Zhicai, Fengxiao, Mr. Wenhe, it just so happens that you are all here..."

Xun Yu frowned, and when he saw the crowd, he couldn't help but yelled.

That elegant gentleman seems to have lost a bit of temperament at the moment.

Hearing the other party's tone, Xi Yu and the others couldn't help but cast their eyes on Xun Yu.

"Wen Ruo, what happened, why are you in such a hurry?"

Xi Zhicai opened his mouth to ask a question, and Xi Yu beside him also looked inquiringly.

Guo Jia poured another sip into his mouth, but his peripheral vision also fell on Xun Yu.

In the blink of an eye, Xun Yu came close, he sighed, and casually handed over the military newspaper in his hand to Xi Zhicai.

Crimson stamp.

It means that this report is an urgent report.

And this time it is a military newspaper, which must mean that something big has happened on the front line!
When Xi Zhicai took the military newspaper casually, he couldn't help but pay attention to it.

Together with Xi Yu and the others beside him, they also set their sights on the military newspaper.

"Look at it!"

Xun Yu shook his head without explaining.

Hearing this, Xi Zhi frowned, and instead of rushing to open the report, he set his sights on Xun Yu.

"But what trouble did Sikong encounter at the front?"

Since it was a military newspaper, the first thing Xi Zhicai and others thought of was Cao Cao who was going out to fight.

But after hearing this, Xun Yu shook his head.

"No, this is an urgent military report from Xuzhou. There are two copies. One was sent to Xuchang. I just received it earlier, and the other went straight to Sikong. It won't be long before Sikong will know about it."

Xun Yu responded casually.

Hearing that it was the Xuzhou Military News, Xi Zhicai and the others were a little surprised, but nothing happened to Cao Cao, which is not bad.

At this time, Kung Fu Xizhi didn't say any more, just opened the report, raised his eyes and scanned it.

Not long after, Xi Zhicai raised his head, his eyes flickered, and his expression became a little more solemn.

At this time, Xi Zhicai casually passed the report to Guo Jia who was next to him, and several people circulated it.

Xi Yu was the last one to read it. After seeing the contents of the memorial, he finally realized why Xun Yu came in such a hurry.

Xuzhou has fallen!
According to the report, when Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan were stationed in Xuzhou, they heard that Yuan Shu was proclaimed emperor, and they intended to lead troops to the border to guard against Yuan Shu.

However, before the two reached the border, they encountered the attacking Lu Bu on the way.

In the field battle, the Xiahou brothers lost to Lu Bu and returned home in a big defeat.

Even in this battle, Xiahou Dun was shot in one eye by a hidden arrow, and now he is still in a coma and has not woken up to this day.

Xia Houyuan was unable to resist Lu Bu, so he could only retreat with his army. Now the two brothers are trapped in Xiapi City.

And this time Lu Bu attacked Xuzhou very quickly, and now, half of the entire Xuzhou has been controlled by Lu Bu!

Now that Lu Bu intends to attack Xiapi, the battle in Xuzhou is critical!
After reading the Xuzhou Memorial.

Xi Yu didn't rush to speak.

To his surprise, that guy Lu Bu went around all the way from Bingzhou, and now he turned his head and ran towards Xuzhou.

But somehow it seemed destined, Xiahoudun escaped the hidden arrows in Puyang, and neither of his eyes were hurt.

But, who let this guy meet Lu Bu again, and he met head-on.

As if it was destined, the arrow that flew in the back finally pierced into his pupil.

Lu Bu turned his head and appeared in Xuzhou again, while Xiahou Dun was blind in one eye and is now unconscious.

Half of the entire Xuzhou fell.

Everything happened too quickly, perhaps this is the limitation of the times.

Nowadays, the transmission of news still depends on one person and one horse after all, and there is no radio and so on for future generations.

Tanma wants to find out the news, and sometimes it is extremely troublesome.

"I never thought that Lu Bu would join forces with Yuan Shu!"

No one spoke, Guo Jia said something leisurely and leisurely.

Hearing this, Xun Yu raised his head and glanced at Guo Jia.

"When I received this letter, Lu Bu also issued a statement, saying that he did not serve Yuan Shu. He marched into Xuzhou this time, saying that he intended to rescue the emperor..."

When Xun Yu opened his mouth, the people beside him couldn't help laughing.

"From this point of view, Lu Bu can see the situation clearly!"

Xi Zhicai pouted.

By making such a statement, Lu Bu told the world that he did not recognize Yuan Shu's status, and that he was still loyal to the great man.

That's wise.

However, this is just a statement on the surface, what is going on in the dark, perhaps only he himself knows.

"What should we do this time?"

Xun Yu couldn't help but feel a little anxious when he saw that the people didn't make any more noises, so he hurriedly asked them.

Immediately, those eyes fell on Xi Yu involuntarily.

Xi Yu didn't speak.

Because of the previous incident, he has made up his mind not to intervene in Cao Cao's military affairs.

So what if Xuzhou fell?
When Cao Cao returns, he will be able to get it back after all.

Right now, he just needs to do his own thing step by step.

Xi Yu didn't intend to speak, and Guo Jia and others beside him naturally understood, and they didn't intend to speak out.

Xun Yu was a little confused!
Now Cao Cao leads the army and has not returned yet.

He came here in such a hurry because he wanted to find some people to come up with an idea together.

It's just that I didn't expect that none of the people had the slightest intention to speak at this time.

Even Xi Zhicai seemed a little silent.

"Fongyi!"

Xun Yu called out to Xi Yu, who raised his head and smiled.

"Brother, has this matter been reported to Sikong!"

"Before I came, I asked Kuaima to deliver the news!"

Xun Yu responded, staring at Xi Yu, wanting to hear what the other party had to say, but the two looked at each other for a while, and Xi Yu looked calm, and still had no intention of continuing to speak.

After looking at it, Xun Yu understood.

Fengyi is silent now, presumably because of the previous incident.

And under such circumstances, Xi Yu didn't speak, but he couldn't force the other party to speak.

Xun Yu knew that once something happened, it would still have an impact, just like it is now.

"Ugh!"

He sighed and didn't ask any more questions.

Guo Jia and the others also didn't open their mouths, but after thinking about it, Kung Fu Xiyu opened his mouth and said something.

"Brother, why worry, Xuzhou has fallen, and it will be brought back in the future, why should it be like this!"

After all, Lu Bu is nothing, although the opponent has captured some towns in Xuzhou right now.

But Lu Bu's nature is there.

A little proud, then a little more rampant.

Perhaps when he was frustrated, Lu Bu could carry a bit of vigor and work together with his subordinates.

However, once he got going, he couldn't last long.

Can't stand half of the foundation!
Such a character, since he occupied Xuzhou, was just making a wedding dress for others.

Not worth caring about.

Hearing Xi Yu speak, Xun Yu turned his head and glanced at him.

Everything seems to have never returned to the way it was before.

Although what Feng Yi said was correct, after all, they only started to grow their power from the land of Yanzhou.

However, gaining and losing, after all, it is still a little indescribable in people's hearts.

"Wait for Sikong to come back!"

Only then did Kung Fu Xi Zhi speak, and then he turned his head and looked towards the distant sky.

Cao Cao has now begun to return with his army.

It would not take long to return to Xuchang, and when Cao Cao received the Xuzhou military report, the return journey might be faster.

After Xi Zhicai finished speaking, Xi Yu followed suit and nodded.

Xun Yu glanced at several people again, seeing that they all meant the same thing, but he didn't say anything more.

"It seems that this is the only way to do it now!"

……

At the same time, when Xun Yu brought the military newspaper to find Xi Yu and the others.

The report on the other side is also coming towards Cao Cao rapidly.

Cao Cao at that time, after receiving the news that Yuan Shu had proclaimed himself emperor, after some hesitation, finally planned to return to Xuchang with the army first.

However, just when the army turned back, it happened to be rainy and the road was muddy, so the return journey took some time.

To this day, the 20 army has not completely left the Sili area.

Now, the Yuan Qie Wen written by Cheng Yu on behalf of him has also returned to Xuchang and published it in all states and counties in the world.

However, there are very few people in the world who respond this time.

Inside the Cao army camp.

It was cloudy and rainy outside the tent, and Cao Cao was very angry at that time, and this impetuous air was exuding from his whole body.

In the big tent, all the subordinates strictly abide by their duties and dare not speak too much.

"Zhongde, Gongda, is there any news from Xuchang today?"

Cao Cao looked up at the gloomy weather outside the tent, and casually asked Xun You and Cheng Yu not far in front of him.

Hearing this, both of them shook their heads.

The land road was muddy, and the turning speed of the army was a little slow. Apart from the cuneiform sent from Xuchang two days ago to announce to the world, there was no news.

"My lord, there is no news, but it is actually the best news!"

"Now that Yuan Shu is proclaimed emperor, if he wants to come to Xuchang, from his majesty to the common people, he must have the same hatred against Yuan Shu!"

"If you want to come to Xuchang, you should be safe and worry-free!"

Xun You said, in his opinion, the undercurrents in Xuchang should focus on Yuan Shu when Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor this time.

Under such circumstances, it is good news for Cao Cao.

Hearing Xun You's analysis, Cao Cao followed suit and nodded.

This is what he thought in his heart.

Although the veteran officials in the court were dissatisfied with him, Yuan Shu's act of proclaiming himself emperor was against the world.

These people who keep saying that they are loyal to the big man will definitely not sit idly by this time.

If they really didn't react at all, it would be slapping themselves in the face.

However, although I think so.

But for some reason, since yesterday, Cao Cao felt a little blocked in his heart.

Like something bad happened.

What worries him the most is the situation in Xuchang.

It's just that this inexplicable mood became more and more intense, coupled with the continuous rainy weather, the series added up, and even his mood began to become more irritable.

"When will this rain stop!"

Cao Cao opened his mouth and murmured.

Cheng Yu and the others below felt a little helpless when they heard this.

It's raining, who can say such a thing!

Although some of them know a little about things like celestial phenomena, but so what, can they stop the sky from raining!

Cao Cao murmured, and there was some silence in the big tent.

At this time, the sound of rain outside suddenly became louder.

The raindrops slapped on the big tent, Cao Cao raised his eyes, and looked towards the direction outside the tent as if there was a sudden omen.

At this time, amidst the sound of raindrops beating on the big tent, there was a sudden noise.

Also, the sound of horses' hooves galloping towards the big tent.

"Urgent military situation! Urgent military situation!"

The sound of the horse's hooves was followed by a voice of anxiety pulling his throat.

Hearing the voice, Cao Cao subconsciously bent over his desk and stood up.

Following him, he turned to the rest of the people in the big tent.

"Did you hear any sound?"

When Cao Cao asked this question, he probably felt that he had some auditory hallucinations.

It's just that the voice outside the kung fu account followed, and at the same time, when Cao Cao was listening to the sermon, Xun You and others also heard it.

There is a military emergency.

Seeing that the faces of Xun You and others changed, Cao Cao knew that he had heard correctly.

Before he could make a sound, a figure broke in from outside the big tent.

As if a little anxious, the visitor rushed into the tent and rolled down on the ground, as if fainted from exhaustion.

Seeing this situation, immediately, Cao Ren who was beside him rushed to the opponent.

"Have passed out!"

"Come here, send this person down to rest!"

Cao Ren took out the report from the opponent, and shouted at the guards outside the tent.

Immediately after him, he glanced at the crimson memorial, and quickly looked towards Cao Cao.

"Brother, urgent military situation!"

"give me!"

Cao Cao made a sound, and he couldn't help but took two steps forward. Cao Ren took advantage of the situation and handed the report to Cao Cao.

After taking over, Cao Cao opened the memorial in his hand without any hesitation.

As he glanced around, Cao Cao's expression changed involuntarily.

"Xuzhou, Xuzhou!"

Cao Cao opened his mouth and read a few words, followed by his pupils widening suddenly, as if they were about to bulge outward.

Seeing this situation, Cao Ren subconsciously wanted to ask a question, but when he raised his eyes, he saw Cao Cao suddenly covered his forehead with his hands, shaking his body.

"Brother!"

Cao Ren yelled anxiously, and subconsciously reached out to support Cao Cao.

At this time, in the big tent, people on the left and right couldn't help but get up, the news was really too sudden.

Even Cao Cao, who was in front of him, had such an expression when he saw this memorial.

Involuntarily, everyone's expressions became more solemn.

"Sikong!"

Xun You yelled, and Cao Cao, who was within sight, swayed. If Cao Ren hadn't supported him immediately, Cao Cao might have fallen to the ground.

At this moment, everyone could see that Cao Cao's whole face was full of teeth bared and his face was ferocious.

He covered his head and opened his mouth instinctively.

"It hurts, I have a headache!"
