Three Kingdoms: The identity of the financial master behind the scenes was exposed by Cao Cao

"Unexpectedly, Huang Zhong, a mere old man, was so good at defending the city!"

"The capable ministers and generals of the Wei State are far better than those of our Great Qin!"

Ma Chao shook his head and sighed, with both helplessness and envy on his brows.

"Your Majesty, urgent report from Xin'an!"

Zhao Lei came on flying horse and presented an urgent report.

Ma Chao suddenly had an ominous premonition and took the silk book with a frown.

Yan Liang said in the urgent report that the Wei army's powerful cannons were bombarding the city day and night, and the morale of the soldiers was low. , Seeing that he can no longer hold on, he asked the horse to speed up for reinforcements.

"If this prince can defeat Shaanxi City, do you still need your urging?"

Ma Chao was displeased and tore up the emergency report into pieces.

"Your Majesty, now that things have come to this, I think that all I can do is make Yan Liang abandon Xin'an City and save these tens of thousands of precious men and horses."

Fazheng reminded with a sigh.

Abandon Xinan!

Ma Chao looked stern, clenched his fist secretly, and said nothing.

Although Pang De and other generals on the left and right did not say anything, they all acquiesced to Fazheng's proposal.

It is difficult for Shaanxi City to survive in the past. Recapture, this is a fait accompli.

The fall of Xin'an is only a matter of time. This means that Zhang Songna's strategy of preemptive strike and counterattack has completely failed.

The wisest choice now is to stop it in time. If Yan Liang's 20,000 valuable soldiers are lost, they should be withdrawn alive to Guanzhong.

Otherwise, Hongnong County will be lost and the soldiers will be lost. Wouldn't it mean that both people and land are lost, and the losses are heavy?

"Xiaozhi's words make sense. It's really time for Yan Liang to withdraw."

"But now that Wei's 200,000-strong army is besieging Xin'an City, how can he break out?"

Ma Chao withdrew his head and frowned.

Fazheng raised his hand and said,"If the prince is willing to ask Yan Liang to withdraw his troops, I have a plan that can help Yan Liang break out of the encirclement smoothly, and maybe we can take advantage of the situation to defeat the Wei army!"

"What's the secret of filial piety?"

Ma Chao suddenly became excited.

Fazheng took his time and slowly revealed his plan.

The clouds on Ma Chao's face gradually dispersed, and a touch of excitement appeared between his eyebrows.

"Well, although Takahiro's plan is a bit risky, if it succeeds, it can turn defeat into victory!"

"According to your plan, immediately send people to Xinan City and order Yan Liang to act according to the plan!"

Ma Chao readily accepted

……

Xin'an City, on the city tower.

Yan Liang's face was ashen and he looked at Wei Ying silently.

He lowered his head and looked at the secret order in his hand again.

In the secret order, the family planning plan that turned defeat into victory for Fa Zheng was written clearly.

"This plan is indeed a dangerous one, but it should be able to hide it from Cao Yuan. Yan

Liang took a deep breath, no longer hesitated, and shouted:"Send the order, open the city gate to me!""

With a roar, the closed south gate suddenly opened.

Yan Liang looked back and shouted to the soldiers:"Xin'an City is broken, and you will inevitably die. I don't want your sacrifices to be in vain. We will break through to the north tonight. At that time, the Wei army will definitely surround this general with all their strength, so you can take advantage of the situation to break out to the west and escape for your lives!"

As soon as these words came out, all the soldiers were deeply moved. They never expected that Yan Liang would sacrifice himself for them.

Yan Liang pointed to the outside of the city and shouted:"What are you waiting for? Do you want me to change my mind?"

After the soldiers bowed down in gratitude, they surged towards the west gate with a roar.

In the blink of an eye, nearly seven thousand soldiers escaped from the city gate.

"I didn’t sacrifice you on purpose, this is the Crown Prince’s order, and it’s hard for me to disobey my order."

After Yan Liang sighed, he ordered the city gate to be closed, and he quietly went down to the city.

Xin'an City, Wei Camp.

Inside the tent.

Cao Cao was drinking with his generals, talking about the war at hand.

"Huang Hansheng is worthy of being our most veteran general in the Wei Dynasty. With only 6,000 troops, he was able to hold back 100,000 Qin troops under the city!"

Cao Cao was full of praise.

Pang Tong smiled and said:"Yan Liang has cut off foreign aid, and the morale of the army has been severely damaged. In the past few days, many people have crossed the city to ask for surrender. It seems that the collapse of the people in the city is close at hand."

Cao Cao laughed heartily, with a look on his face determined to win.

At this time, his vision was no longer limited to capturing Xin'an, but also looking at regaining the entire Hongnong, how to capture Tongguan, and enter Guanzhong.

Cao Ren said with emotion:"Your Majesty, my ministers It is expected that the morale of the enemy's army has dropped to the bottom. We don't need to wait any longer and go all out to break the city."

Cao Cao was deeply convinced and said happily:"Okay, pass on the order, have a good meal tonight, attack the city with all your strength tomorrow, be sure to take Xin'an City in one go!"

The words just fell.

Cao Yuan, who had been silent, said:"Father, I think that Ma Teng and his son will not sit still and wait for death. They know that defending Xin'an will only lead to death, and they will continue to defend Xin'an."

"Prince means……"

Cao Cao was about to ask.

Cao Chun rushed in, cupped his hands and said:"Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from the Western Camp. There are over 10,000 enemy troops suddenly attacking at night. They seem to want to break out to the west!" The

Qin army broke through.

Everyone's spirits were lifted.

Cao Cao smiled and praised:"Prince, you are indeed right. Yan Liang really wants to escape!"

Cao Ren said with emotion:"Your Majesty, Yan Liang can't help himself and wants to die. This is God's help for the Wei Dynasty. We don't need to Attacking the city will only cost the lives of the soldiers, but you can also capture Xin'an City!"

Cao Cao's eyes sparkled.

Although it is easy to break through Xin'an, at least thousands of soldiers will be lost.

If you can defeat the city without fighting, it will be the best choice.

Yan Liang took the initiative to break out of the encirclement, which was exactly what he wanted

"Are you sure that Yan Liang is the one who breaks through?"

Cao Yuan was not so excited, but asked calmly.

Cao Chun said:"Li Dian's urgent report should be correct. There is indeed a Wanqin army attacking Xiying."

Cao Yuan frowned slightly, but did not express his position.

However, Cao Cao couldn't hold himself back day by day and shouted:"Pass the order, all armies will immediately go to the west camp to blockade, be sure to intercept Yan Liang!"

The order was passed.

The sound of gongs immediately sounded in the camp.

The Wei troops from each camp quickly assembled in armor and rushed towards the West Camp from all directions.

A quarter of an hour later, Cao Cao led his troops to the West Camp. He raised his head and looked around. , the field in front of the camp was full of corpses.

Li Dian and other Western Camp defenders, with the cooperation of the Wei troops who came to reinforce the defense, had killed the Qin troops who had broken through to pieces.

Cao Cao's face was filled with emotion. He smiled with joy.

Suspicion flashed in Cao Yuan's eyes.

Although the Qin army was frightened, they were dominated by the Xiliang people, who were known for their toughness.

They were so vulnerable that they were killed in just half an hour. In this state?

Moreover, Cao Yuan vaguely heard the howls of women and children amidst the sounds of killing.

"Why are there women and children among the enemy troops?"

Cao Yuan's eyes became more suspicious.
