Chapter 455
Naturally, Cao Zhi did not dare to fight back against his father, so he kept using Qinggong to run away and avoid him.

He also knew that his old man was just angry that his son was working as an undercover agent, so he deliberately let off steam, walked a few steps slower, and let his father hit him a few times, until Lao Cao bent over and pressed his knees with both hands. Panting heavily, I was too tired to run.

This pair of father and son finally stopped!
Seeing that his father was tired and angry, Cao Zhi obediently came to his father's side and helped him to do it again!
"Father, calm down!

I also do this in the hope of finding a way out for my Cao family! "

After hearing this, Cao Cao rolled his eyes speechlessly and said in a rather mocking tone:
"For co-writing, I have to thank you, the fourth son of the Cao family!?"

After finishing speaking, Lao Cao shook his head with a sigh, supported the wall, and straightened up with great difficulty!

Although Lao Cao is a talented man, he is also a realist. People like him believe in strength more!
The reality told by his son and his first military advisor had already made him give up a little!
If everyone were mortal, even if Cao Cao was facing a desperate situation at this moment, he would still have some ambitions to compete with his opponent!
In history, Prime Minister Cao did not despair when faced with the difficulties of Yuan Shao in the north and Liu Biao and Sun Ce in the south, but at this moment, he was a little discouraged!
After all, he has now become the Emperor of Heaven, and he is still in charge of several worlds. After experiencing the continuous bombings of Xun Yu and Cao Zhi!Now he has no confidence to compete at all!
Thinking of this, Cao Cao couldn't help showing a bit of aggrieved expression on his old face.

You said you are so awesome, why bother to interfere in the war of us mortals!

But it’s useless to think about it now!
Boss Cao sat down at the main seat again, glanced at the cautious fourth son beside him, and cursed angrily: "You brat, you are so powerful and yet you are so worthless! Do you think you, me, and I don't have any potential?" Do you see that you are hiding your clumsiness? I really didn’t know that Duke Yan’s sister would accept you as her apprentice!”

Hearing this, Cao Zhi also buried his head in embarrassment.

Should he tell his father that he bumped into him secretly at night?
Cao Cao didn't say anything. Although this son's literary talent was the most similar to his own, he didn't inherit any of his scheming skills. It can be said that fools are blessed!

He began to ask about Gongsun Lu's arrangements in Xuchang.

In fact, Cao Zhi is not very clear about the situation in this regard. He only knows that in Xuchang City, the Fengyu School has secretly infiltrated the three religions and nine streams in the city, including various large businesses, city guards, the school office under Boss Cao, and even the court. Tang, there are spies from the North even among the defenders outside the Xuchang camp!
The more I heard this, the more depressed Cao Cao became!Although he was ready to rely on Cao Zhi's relationship to seek refuge with Gongsun Lu, when he heard that his base camp was being penetrated by the other party like a sieve, he only felt bitter in his mouth and slightly sour in his heart!
At night, Liu Xie was reviewing memorials here at Zhangtai. At this time, a small yellow gate said that the newly appointed minister Sima Yi was outside the hall asking for an audience.

Liu Xie also summoned him simply. Although Sima Yi's reputation is not yet obvious, he has no qualifications under Cao Cao!
The only achievement that can be regarded as some merit is convincing Han Sui to unite the Qiang tribe to fight back against Zhao Yun when he was in Liangzhou.

Although he failed in the end, it did not affect the recognition of his talents by the important officials in the court. Similarly, he was also the first counselor among Cao Cao's subordinates to take refuge in him!

Not to mention himself, even the Sima family where he belongs has disciples and former officials all over the world!
His father, Sima Fang, was born in the Sima family of Bingzhou. When he was young, he started as a county official and served successively as the Luoyang Ling and Jing Zhao Yin. He praised Cao Cao and recommended him many times.When he got old, he turned to the cavalry captain and cultivated his ambition to defend himself. His reputation was almost equal to that of Yang Biao's Yang family and the Yuan family!
His ancestors can even be traced back to Sima Mao, the King of Yin who was canonized by Xiang Yu in the late Qin Dynasty!

It can be said that he has a profound family knowledge and a profound foundation!
After Sima Yi met with Liu Xie, he first reported to him some information about the Shangshutai.

Since Xun Yu was kicked out, Sima Yi has been directly responsible for the affairs of Shangshutai and Shaofu, and this guy has done a pretty good job!
While talking about political affairs, Sima Yi secretly looked at Liu Xie's face, and then seemed to happen to say something about Xun Yu secretly visiting Cao Cao!
Liu Xie's expression suddenly changed, and the hand holding the pen while writing the memorial was slightly suffocated, but he soon regained his composure.

After listening to Sima Yi's report, he waved his hand and let him go directly!
Looking at the empty palace, the originally calm eyes of the emperor, who had already spoken out in the Xuchang court, suddenly turned gloomy, and his delicate face suddenly became extremely ferocious.

The black and white pupils also began to turn extremely red, as if they were trying to choose someone to devour. Under the fair skin, there were faint green dragon scales looming!
The aura on his body became more and more chaotic!
Gongsun Lu didn't pay too much attention to the changes in Xuchang. In his opinion, even if there was another person, the city of Xuchang was destined to be taken by him!

However, now that he had confirmed the specific information about Jin Xiaguan and the visitor from another world, he did not intend to waste time and cut through the mess quickly, so he notified Chen Liu's camp and directly ordered Zhao Yun to lead troops to attack Xuchang. The Lord relied on Liu Xie's dragon spirit to make Gongsun Lu throw a mouse!
But what if Liu Xie's dragon spirit and the luck of the Han Dynasty dissipated? You must know that the Han Dynasty has experienced nearly 400 years, but due to the disasters of Dong Zhuo, Li Jue and Guo Si, the capital was moved twice. This time it would be Xuchang After being breached again, the remaining luck of the Han Dynasty was almost wiped out!
Not to mention the Shu Han established by Liu Bei later, it can be said to be another dynasty!

This is why Liu Xie is unwilling to lead his troops south, but he still wants to stay here in Xuchang!

The war came earlier than expected. After Zhao Yun received the order, he immediately organized his army and used the high-speed railway channel laid this month to prepare the backup supply routes for Puyang and Luoyang. He directly ordered General Pang De He led an army of [-] people as a vanguard and marched towards Xuchang.

And he led the army to sit in the rear and slowly advanced towards Xuchang.

Facing the offensive, Liu Xie did not arrange for troops to block it all the way. In the current situation, the land from Chenliu to Xuchang has become a desperate situation.

Rather than spreading our strength there, it is better to strengthen the walls and clear the country.

He ignored Pang Tong's siege and compressed the main force into Xuchang City. Judging from this posture, he seemed to be preparing for a decisive battle with Gongsun Lu during the siege.

Soon Pang Tong led nearly [-] troops to the city!
On the surface, Liu Xie gathered troops and strengthened the city's defense, but secretly sent the Shadow Corps to poison the water sources near Xuchang City.

Pang De's side failed to investigate for a while and fell into a sinister trick. Nearly a thousand soldiers were poisoned at once, and the poison even tended to spread.

Fortunately, Mr. Hua Tuo, who had been accompanying the army on the expedition, also rushed to the front line to help.

Ever since the old man was abducted by Gongsun Road in Xuzhou, he has often taken out many classics about the medical skills of later generations from other worlds, and even excerpted some magical methods related to alchemy and poison from the Biyou Immortal Code!
This old man is indeed a miracle doctor who has been passed down through the ages. He is very talented in refining elixirs and medicines.

Even Lian Jing felt that if this old man appeared in the prehistoric era, he would definitely get along well with Lu Yue, the number one biochemical madman in Jiejiao!

Not only is his medical skill advancing by leaps and bounds, but even his cultivation is only one step away from reaching the realm of immortality.

After this old genius doctor who mentioned this medicine gourd, with a white hair and a childlike face, who could cosplay the Antarctic fairy just by riding a deer, came to the front line, he just took out a dozen elixir from the wine gourd, mixed it with more than a dozen jars of water, and it was ready. All these soldiers were saved.

But after a lot of back and forth, nearly 300 soldiers lost their ability to fight due to poisoning and were sent to the rear of Chenliu for training!
The unfavorable start of the attack temporarily calmed the prudent Pound's original idea of ​​quickly breaking through Xuchang. He was not in a hurry to attack the city, but went to the village thirty miles outside Xuchang City. On the one hand, they are waiting for the magic pattern mortars to be delivered from the rear. When the time comes, they will directly blast through the city wall and drive straight in!

Liu Xie was also a little disappointed. He originally expected that the other general would be more hasty and attack the city directly. He would wait until the toxins were almost fermented, break out all at once, and then send out troops!
