The early activation of Cao Chun, the commander of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, most likely did not play a role in turning the tide in this war.

But this is understandable.

Lu Bu had good intentions this time, and the number of troops mobilized in the city was much larger than Boss Cao's. Any trick would be powerless in the face of absolute power.

What's more, if Boss Cao wants to break out of the siege, he will have to fight the most passive siege battle, which is indeed a bit overwhelming.

Despite this inference in his mind, Cao Chun's appearance still had some impact on Wu Liang.

At least he gave Wu Liang, who was hesitating, a sense of luck. Under the influence of this sense of luck, he finally decided to wait and see what happened, and wait until he had to take action before making a decision.

Wu Liang was not sure whether his choice was correct.

But life is like this. No one is an omniscient and omnipotent prophet. When faced with choices one after another, especially this kind of dilemma, you still have to keep moving forward. All you can do is do what you have done for yourself.

Every choice is responsible. As for whether the choice is right or wrong, and what consequences it will bring, that is already a story.

…

It only takes about two sticks of incense.

Boss Cao's troops have already crossed half of the city.

At this moment, the North City Gate was already in front of him, only three to four hundred meters away at most. Wu Liang could even use the torches on the city wall to see the shadowy figures on the city wall.

It was at this time.

The "Male Formation" led by Cao Ang and Cao Zhen in front suddenly stopped.

The people behind could not clearly see what was happening in front of them, and they were confused.

"Report!"

A soldier had already run back quickly and reported nervously to Boss Cao: "Your Majesty, the eldest son has ordered me to come and report that an enemy formation has been encountered thirty feet ahead. The person blocking the way is Lu Bu's general Gao Shun.

The leader of the trapped camp has nearly a thousand people. Should we attack or not?"

"!"

Upon hearing this, Boss Cao's expression suddenly changed, and he was unable to make a decision immediately.

This exactly reflects the despair in Boss Cao's heart after hearing the news.

Boss Cao would definitely not be unclear about what kind of army the "trapped camp" was. It was precisely because he knew it very well that he didn't know how to give orders to Cao Ang when he knew himself and the enemy.

Cao Ang suddenly stopped advancing and sent someone back to ask Boss Cao for instructions on whether to attack or not. This is also very illustrative of the problem.

After all, they are now experiencing a time-critical breakout with no retreat.

If you can attack.

Cao Ang must have attacked without saying anything. There was no question of "to attack or not to attack" at all. Didn't he and Boss Cao have other choices?

The only chance of defeating the enemy by force is very slim.

Only then would Cao Ang specially send someone back to ask what Boss Cao meant...

When Wu Liang heard the words "trapped in the camp", he immediately understood the difficult choice Cao Ang and Boss Cao were facing at this moment.

What is "trapped"?

"The armor and fighting equipment are all well-equipped and neat, and every attack will be broken." This sentence already illustrates the characteristics of "Trapped in the Camp". This is a heavy armored infantry regiment that is proficient in positional warfare.

Faced with such a heavy armored infantry regiment that outnumbered its own, the "male formation" formed by the light armored guards led by Cao Ang and Cao Zhen was almost impossible to tear apart the opponent's camp, and there was a high probability that it would only result in a bloody blow.

This is entirely a restraint between arms, and no one can do anything about it.

However, Wu Liang did not think that Cao Ang and Cao Zhen were cowardly if they stopped advancing and sent people back to ask Boss Cao about his intentions.

Historically, Cao Ang and Cao Zhen were able to die fighting for Boss Cao in Wancheng, so they could also sacrifice their lives for Boss Cao in Anyi City. The question is only whether it is worth it or not?

At least in the Battle of Wancheng, they died in exchange for Boss Cao's survival, and that was how the powerful Cao Wei came to be.

But it was only silent for two seconds.

"Don't attack, retreat!"

Boss Cao issued a surprising order.

"?"

Many people had doubts on their faces. Now they had arrived at the North Gate. As they were rushing here, they could imagine that the rebels from the South Gate were also encircling them.

At this point, you want to retreat?

Although they can avoid the "trapped camp" for the time being, they will still encounter the rebels coming from the south gate soon. Not to mention they will also be attacked from the front and back, and they are not close to the two city gates.

, naturally also completely lost the opportunity to take advantage of the chaos and fight out of the city.

Many people also turned their attention to Xi Zhicai next to Boss Cao.

They all know the status of Xi Zhicai in Boss Cao's heart, and they also know Xi Zhicai's strategic talent. Therefore, who can raise objections to Boss Cao at this time, or come up with a more clever strategy, naturally

It is none other than Xi Zhicai.

"..."

But at this moment, Xi Zhicai just lowered his eyes, showing no intention of speaking at all, as if he had already resigned himself to his fate.

"I said no attack, retreat!"

Seeing that the soldier who was delivering the message was also stunned, Boss Cao's face turned cold and he shouted again in a deep voice.

"……promise!"

The soldier's cheeks trembled with fright, and after responding, he jumped up like a rabbit and ran to the front to deliver the order.

The execution ability of Boss Cao's escort is also very impressive.

In just a few breaths after the order was passed down, the front and rear of the military formation had already changed. At this moment, the one hundred and ten rear soldiers under Wu Liang's command became the vanguard.

The vanguard led by Cao Ang and Cao Zhen took advantage of the situation and moved to the rear, and had completed the change of formation during the march, from the previous "Male Formation" to a "Round Formation" that protected the rear and sides with no obvious weaknesses.

at the same time.

"Talented!"

Boss Cao also quickened his pace and came to Wu Liang's side, raised his hand and pressed Wu Liang's shoulder.

"Ming Gong..."

Wu Liang stopped and waited for Boss Cao's instructions.

"Just listen and don't look around."

Boss Cao came closer and said in Wu Liang's ear in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "It seems that we are in danger this time, so I need to entrust you with something in advance. If I really

The army was defeated here, and when you saw that the situation could not be reversed, you immediately took action to kill Emperor Xian, and then used

Use flying slaves to send the news back to Chen Liu, saying that Lu Bu rebelled, killed his father and king, and wanted to become emperor. We defended Xian Emperor and died, and taught Xun Yu, Xiahou Dun and others to tell the world about this... If we still have a chance

Run away, you have never heard what I said, let alone mention it to anyone, do you understand?"

"..."

Wu Liang was stunned immediately.

What a plan!

In this way, even if Lu Bu succeeds in his rebellion, there will no longer be a place for him in the entire dynasty.

Although he could not have assassinated his first adoptive father Ding Yuan before, the assassination of his second adoptive father Dong Zhuo was in the legitimate name of "Qingjun side". In addition, at that time, he and Wang Yun jointly controlled the government and controlled the direction of public opinion.

As soon as he got publicity, he transformed from a capricious and rebellious patricide into a hero.

No one in the government or the public could say anything. Could it be that Lu Bu was wrong to kill Dong Zhuo?

If you say this, you will become a comrade of Dong Zhuo and a traitor to the imperial court.

But this time, if Boss Cao does what he does.

Lu Bu not only killed his father repeatedly, but also killed the king and usurped the throne. This was even more heinous than what Dong Zhuo did back then. But now there are only people from Boss Cao and Lu Bu in Anyi City. It may be difficult for Lu Bu to find a witness. By then he will

If you can't argue with anyone, it's the same as having yellow mud fall off your crotch. It's not just shit, it's shit.

And when Emperor Xian died, Yuan Shao's wish was fulfilled.

Yuan Shao is also an ambitious man who wants to accomplish big things, so he will definitely use this as an excuse to attack Lu Bu, and he will not stop fighting until death.

As long as he can kill Lu Bu, he will be the number one hero in defending the imperial power, and everyone in the world will return.

At that time, he only needs to use some small tricks to prevent the already exhausted Liu family from finding a successor who is qualified to inherit the unification. Then Yuan Shao can naturally establish a temporary court...

What a poisonous trick!

Even if Boss Cao accidentally falls into Lu Bu's way, he can still easily pull him down and support him. I wonder what Lu Bu will feel when he reaches the end of his rope because of this?

As for Boss Cao.

If he had to die and had no chance to conquer the world, he would naturally not be able to make his enemies happy. On the contrary, no matter how much Yuan Shao is now, he was once boss Cao's pet. Even if boss Cao made a wedding dress for him, it would definitely be cheaper.

Lu Bu felt a little more comfortable...

"Um?"
