"Pu ~"

In the empty tent, the wine cup in Cao Shuang's hand fell to the ground, and the warm wine splashed all over the ground, but Cao Shuang seemed to be unconscious, looking at the general in front of her with a embarrassed look on her face. Bloodshots continued to rise on her tired eyes, and her whole body was like a wild beast that chose people to eat.

"What did you say!?" After a long time, a hoarse voice echoed in the empty tent, low, but it made people feel frightened.

"General, Chengfu was attacked by the Han army, and most of the food and grass in the city were burned. General Xiahou Xuan, the general of the Southern Conquest, died in the city!" General Wei lowered his head even lowered.

Plop ~

Cao Shuang seemed to have lost all her strength and sat down on the ground powerlessly.

Chengfu was the place where he chose to store grain. In order to ensure that there was no mistake, Xiahou Xuan personally took charge and gathered heavy troops. In order to prevent the Han army from discovering it, Cao Shuang has formulated dozens of grain channels to confuse the Han army. He thought it was foolproof, but who would have thought that it would be found by the Han army in the end and captured it in one fell swoop!

Once food and supplies are lost, the morale of the army will be in chaos! How can I fight this battle?

"General?" The Wei general saw that Cao Shuang didn't say anything for a long time. When he looked up, he saw Cao Shuang sitting on the ground in a daze, as if he was stupid, and couldn't help calling out lightly.

"How much food and grass are left left?" Cao Shuang looked up and looked at General Wei and asked.

"Because of heavy snow and the surrounding troops found that something was wrong, they rushed to rescue some of them, but the remaining food and grass can last for at most one month!" General Wei bowed and said.

"January!?" Cao Shuang sat on the ground, leaning on the tent weakly, and said for a long time: "Send someone to Guangling to inform the Wu army that our army's food and grass was burned and could only last for half a month. He wanted to attack Liu Cheng's troops with all his strength, and hoped that the Wu army could restrain Pang Tong for us!"

The food and grass were burned, and Cao Shuang could no longer consume it with the Han army. Instead of waiting for the three armies to be defeated when the food and grass were exhausted, so that the Han army could be unimpeded. It would be better to take a risk and try your best to destroy the Han army. Even if the Han army wins in the end, it will be a tragic victory and cannot plan for the Central Plains.

"Governor, why don't you join forces with the Wu army and defeat Pang Tong first?" A general bowed to Cao Shuang and asked.

"Pang Tong is a wise man in the world, and he holds the main force of the Han army." Cao Shuang shook his head and said, "Besides, Lu Xun may not really join forces with our army to attack Pang Tong. It is better to defeat Liu Cheng first and kill Pang Tong with one arm. If it goes well, and there is still strength to wipe out Liu Cheng, then he will fight with Pang Tong again."

In addition, fighting to the death can also reduce the consumption of food and grass, and maybe it can last for a few more months, but if this is said, it would be too cruel.

"Here!" General Wei agreed and turned around and left.

Cao Shuang began to quickly assemble troops and prepare to gather troops to destroy Liu Cheng along the way first.

...

On the other hand, Guan Xing led his army to defeat several Wei troops who came to block the road. When he returned to Qiutou, he saw that the army was building a large-scale construction. Not only did he build a layer of wooden wall, but he even protected the two sides with bricks and stones, and poured cement in the middle. This is the rhythm of building a city!

Guan Xing handed over the general order and came to the construction site to find Liu Cheng who was supervising the construction of the city wall against the drawings. He said in confusion: "Zi Xin, what is this for?"

"There is heavy snow in the direction of Chengfu." Liu Cheng did not explain much, but just replied lightly.

"Yes, it started to fall shortly after it burned, but the fire was extremely strong. The heavy snow did not stop the fire from extinguishing it. Instead, it burned more and more vigorously!" Guan Xing said with a smile.

"This snow will last for three days!" Liu Cheng looked at the weather and frowned.

Uh...what does this matter?

Guan Xing knew that Liu Cheng was proficient in astronomy and geography and could predict weather, but what does this have to do with your city building?

"The Wei army's food and grass will not be burned all, but there will be a part of it." Liu Cheng glanced at Guan Xing and explained patiently: "The Cao army will not be defeated at the moment. What would happen if you were Cao Shuang?"

"With the food and grass being gone, fight to the death!" Guan Xing reacted. Of course, Cao Shuang could retreat, but now Pang Tong, Liu Cheng was on the side, and Wei Yan was in the back. In this retreat, Pang Tong and Liu Cheng would definitely take advantage of the situation to bite, and Wei Yan would also wait for an opportunity to act. At that time, Cao Shuang's situation would be even worse and would be trapped to death. Instead of doing this, it would be better to fight with the help of some military rations and get rid of the military rations, which would save military rations.

"At this time, the Wei army will inevitably be crazy when fighting. If we face the enemy head-on, even if we can win, the losses will inevitably be heavy. It will hit Cao Shuang's thoughts. It is better to defend yourself." Liu Cheng nodded and said, "After Cao Shuang's spirit is consumed, General Wei Yan's troops should be able to reach the battle. By then, the morale of the Wei army has been drained, and it is just right to turn the defense into an offensive. If two groups attack, the Wei army will be defeated!"

"No, Zixin, you didn't count in advance that there would be snow?" Guan Xing couldn't help asking.

"I am a human, not a god!" Liu Cheng looked at Guan Xing speechlessly. He knew the celestial phenomena well, but to make accurate predictions, it would only take half a day at most. It would be calculated a few days in advance. Only those near the solar terms can be found. At this time, Liu Cheng could not be so accurate. I am afraid that only the gods can do such things, right?

When Guan Xing heard this, he smiled embarrassedly, stopped talking, and began to help Liu Cheng expand the camp and have a line of defense.

This time, the camp designed by Liu Cheng was mainly focused on guard. In addition to consolidating defense, a large number of traps were also set up on the periphery to prevent the Wei army from easily approaching the village wall.

It seemed to be exactly what Liu Cheng said, almost the day after Guan Xing returned, Cao Shuang led a large army to fight.

Unlike in the past, this time, the Wei army's attack was extremely crazy. Cao Shuang divided the troops into four routes, each route into ten teams, attacking day and night, day and night.

In order to avoid the soldiers' retreat, Cao Shuang set up four special teams of supervision. Those who were afraid to fight and retreated immediately and were ruthless. The number of supervisors this time was particularly large. The Wei army was as crazy as the Han army's strong bow and crossbow, and even though the camp set up by Liu Cheng was still broken several places by the Wei army's crazy attack. In just three days, the outer wall was completely lost, but the inner wall became stronger after three days of continuous reinforcement. Even if the Wei army attacked wildly, it was difficult to shake.

"Cao Shuang is crazy!" After three consecutive days, the Wei army finally stopped. Guan Xing got off the city wall, took a sip of warm water, and gasped and said, "I feel that the outer wall of the village was flattened with the body of the Wei army!"

"He's not crazy!" The air was filled with a strong smell of blood. Even if the door was closed, it could still seep in. Liu Cheng sighed and said, "He just had no way out and had to take a gamble."

He picked up the wine cup on the table, and Liu Cheng handed it to Guan Xing and said, "We will win after waiting for another three days!"
