Zhang Xiu rode his horse away. His horse struck the ground like a thunderbolt, causing dust to fly up. When he arrived in front of Dian Wei, he thrust his long spear forward like a snake.
Clang!
Dian Wei's double halberds immediately caught it and then laughed loudly,""Your spear technique is very similar to one of my brothers!”
Zhang Xiu narrowed his eyes and shook his spear. He clamped his legs on the horse's back and circled around Dian Wei.
He thought that although Dian Wei's halberds were powerful, they wouldn't be so agile. If he won with agility, he might have a chance.
But after a few moves, he regretted it.
Dian Wei's halberds were like a cape, one after another.
Moreover, his strength was getting stronger and stronger. Although it could not be described as nimble, it was extremely fierce, making Zhang Xiu unable to breathe.
In just a dozen or so rounds, he had almost been beheaded two or three times.
However, Zhang Xiu was indeed a person with real ability. After the danger, he patted the back of his horse and ran away, not daring to fight anymore.
If they continued fighting, they would definitely die.
"This thief general is actually so fierce…" Dian Wei stood behind him with his halberd on the ground, his heart filled with regret.
"This guy is really cunning. He's as agile as Zi Long, but that's all…" In terms of killer moves, courage, strength, eyesight, and so on, he was much weaker than Zhao Yun.
Moreover, Zhao Yun's spear technique seemed to be more agile.
…Cao Cao, who was watching from afar, was instantly delighted.
Hahaha! Wen Yuan, take a look and see if Dian Wei is a fierce general of the current era!”
Zhang Liao nodded with a bitter smile."Indeed, no wonder that day…" He remembered clearly that Dian Wei was one of the people who had rushed into the formation with Xu Zhen to capture him. At that time, hundreds of Bing Province cavalrymen could not stop a small troop of Dian Wei.
Although it had something to do with military armaments, the existence of the iron stirrups allowed Dian Wei to unleash a higher level of brute force than Zhang Xiu, but his own martial arts skills could not be excluded.
Cao Cao looked to the left and said to Xi Zhicai,""What do you think, Military Advisor?"
At this moment, Cheng Yu, the prefect of Chen Liu, who was standing side by side with the opera prodigy, had also arrived. When he heard Cao Cao's words, he muttered,"Hmm, it looks like Wan City is going to surrender."”
Xi Zhicai also nodded."That's true. They have no reason to continue resisting. Wan City is not an easy place to defend. If they continue fighting, even if they can defeat us, Zhang Xiu will still have no place to hide."”
Cao Cao was leisurely stroking his beard, his face full of smiles."Not bad, not bad. I told you that Wan City is a place that can be taken easily. Let's see what Zhang Xiu will do. If he wants to defend to the death, we'll attack first with the siege chariots and make a hole in their northern wall.”
"As expected of Dian Wei!" After Cao Cao finished speaking, he did not forget to praise her. The more he looked at her, the more he liked her. Why? It was mainly because he could see Xu Zhen's shadow in Dian Wei.
Both of them could carry the Yamen Flag with one hand. It had to be said that when Cao Cao first received this news, the shock in his heart could not be any greater.
There was really such a fierce warrior in the world who could stand on something that weighed hundreds of pounds with one hand. If this person could be a fierce general, he would definitely be invincible.
Now, he was finally at ease.
Cao Cao felt very comfortable.
On the city gate of Wan City, Zhang Xiu was panting heavily. He closed the city gate tightly and returned to the gatehouse. He said anxiously to Jia Xu,
"I can't even defeat this barbarian. If we were to fight in the wild, our army would definitely lose!”
Jia Xu was thin and wore a counselor's uniform. He held a small fan in his hand, and his eyes were bright. His cheeks were puffed up, and he finally sighed."Of course they will lose…General, have you ever observed that their warhorses all have stirrels?
”
"Although I heard that it was Lord Xu Zhen who arranged for it to be forged two years ago, Cao Cao's Tiger Leopard Cavalry in Yanzhou City was the first to forge ten thousand sets, increasing their military strength.”
"Secondly, General has never seen that person before. He must be a new general in Cao Cao's camp. Think about it. Last winter, typhoid fever was so rampant, and corpses were strewn all over the place. It was Lord Xu and Cao Cao who did their best to save at least 100,000 people, but what they really saved were the hearts of millions.”
What a good sentence, saving millions of people's hearts!!!
Zhang Xiu was shocked. Cao Cao and Xu Zhen, who he had never met before, were like a huge shadow hovering above his head, making him feel a little breathless.
"Thirdly, Cao Cao did not use siege weapons to attack the city, and the infantry is still waiting outside. This is also a test. I believe that Cao Cao himself does not want to fight.”
"You don't want to fight?" Zhang Xiu's eyes lit up.”
Jia Xu nodded and said,"That's right, he doesn't want to fight. During the winter disaster last year, Cao Cao must have spent a large amount of money and food to carry out disaster relief and treatment, so he doesn't have that much money and food to support him to continue fighting."”
"Such a formation may seem mighty, but the 60,000-strong army will find it difficult to get down. Today, the drumming is only for the general to see, or rather, for the Wan City Army to see. After all, General Zhang Ji had just died in a battle with Liu Biao, and the soldiers are not in a good mood.”
"If the morale of the army is lax and we are unable to resist the enemy, we will only increase the number of casualties if we continue fighting.”
Zhang Xiu frowned and thought for a long time. Finally, he said,"Then why don't we surrender Cao Cao? I think he has the same intention.”
Jia Xu nodded lightly with a smile on his face. However, there was a fierce glint in his eyes.
However, he was not someone who liked to stand at the forefront of the storm.
He had a plan, but he still had to listen to Zhang Xiu's orders. After all, he was the master of Wan City.
"Then, should we surrender?"
Zhang Xiu asked again.
Jia Xu leaned back, straightened his back and said,"There's nothing wrong with that."
"General, you don't have the support of the aristocrats or the wealthy merchants behind you, and you don't have a foundation. If you surrender, you'll definitely become a general, a marquis, and enjoy wealth and splendor.”
He turned around and left. Zhang Xiu stood alone on the city gate tower and watched for a long time. Cao Cao's vanguard troops were still cursing at him. The surrounding counties and cities basically did not have the strength to defend themselves.
It seemed that there was indeed no need to struggle.
"Then surrender."
At night, the letter of surrender arrived at Cao Cao's camp. The soldiers immediately informed the strategists and generals to gather in the camp.
The smile on Cao Cao's face continued as he walked around the crowd with the letter of surrender.
"Look, look!"
"Hahaha! I told you that Wan City would be as easy as a smooth river, and that Zhang Xiu would open the city gates tomorrow! Wancheng was within reach! Yixuan also said that I was in danger. Dian Wei, tell me, are you in danger?”
Dian Wei laughed happily."No, of course not! That piece of embroidery is just a pillow with a white flower. It will be broken in one bucket, haha.”
Xi Zhicai and Cheng Yu were also smiling.
Only Cao Ang and Cao Anmin felt that…something was wrong. It was too smooth.
"Father," Cao Ang said,"before I left, I went to ask my uncle. He said that if Zhang Xiu surrenders, you must ask him to come to the camp and retreat twenty to thirty miles away before you can accept his surrender."”
Cao Cao frowned when he heard that."What logic is that? Of course not! Yixuan was too careful!"
"I was so careful several times, even during Chen Liu's time. However, at that time, Lu Bu was indeed by my side, so I was careless. But this time, look at Zhang Xiu's soldiers.”
"You don't even have the heart."
"Even if Zhang Xiu surrenders and asks them to pick up their spears, these soldiers are no longer soldiers who can fight. The fighting spirit of the soldiers has already died, so what reason do they have to fight again?!”
Cao Cao was very proud and high-spirited. Most importantly, Wan City had been taken so smoothly, so Yixuan had nothing to say.
Dian Wei would belong to him forever.
"Tomorrow! Follow me into Wan City! Go upstairs and compose a poem!"
