The Dragon Kingdom accompanied the Dragon Emperor on an expedition to conquer the Wei Kingdom, with as many as one million troops!

This force was greater than the combined forces of Wei and Shu. Coupled with super generals such as Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, Ma Chao and Tai Shici, and super counselors such as Guo Jia, Zhou Yu, and Xu Shu, Wei was unable to resist.

And with Liu Feng's personal expedition, the morale of the Dragon Kingdom's army, which was already at an advantage, soared. Not only the soldiers charging at the front, but also generals such as Dian Wei and Zhang Liao also wanted to show off their strength in front of the Dragon Emperor. ability.

In particular, Zhang He, Xu Huang, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, the generals who later joined Liu Feng's command, proved their strength so that they could be more appreciated by Liu Feng in the future.

The counselors Zhou Yu, Tian Feng, Xu Shu and Ju Shou also tried their best to come up with various strategies, also hoping to make Liu Feng treat them differently.

Under the fierce attack of such a general of the Dragon Kingdom, the Wei army, which was short of major generals, was retreating steadily. Compared with before, it could resist a little bit, but now it has no power to fight back.

As the Wei army's frontline battle went unfavorably, chaos and depression began to appear within the Wei state.

Seeing that domestic morale was getting lower and lower, and the frontline soldiers had completely lost their will to fight, Wei Emperor Cao Cao became even more anxious.

After thinking for a long time, Cao Cao finally made a decision.

He said to Xi Zhicai:"Zhicai, I know that with the strength of the Wei State, it must not be able to defeat the Dragon State, so I will alliance with the Shu State.

I thought that we and the Shu State would resist the Dragon State together, and we would attack and defend each other. , but I didn’t expect that the Dragon Emperor would suddenly start a war with our two countries at the same time.

This not only disrupted my development plan, but also made the offensive and defensive alliance between our two countries useless.

Now the war between our country and the Dragon Kingdom has entered a life-and-death stage. Not only is the battle on the frontline unfavorable, but the people in Yangzhou and even Jianye have already become depressed.

If this continues, our own people may have surrendered before the Dragon Kingdom's army reaches Jianye.

In order for us to In order for our soldiers to be able to cheer up again, and in order for us to be able to withstand the attack of the Dragon Kingdom temporarily, I decided to lead the expedition like the Dragon Emperor and personally go to the front line to command the battle."

Xi Zhicai listened to Cao Cao's words and hurriedly advised:"Your Majesty Don't be impatient. The Dragon Kingdom's army is too powerful and there are fierce generals like Zhao Yundianwei. If Your Majesty goes there, there will be danger.

Therefore, please stay in Jianye. Zhicai is willing to go to Xuzhou battlefield to command the army in your Majesty's place. To resist the Dragon Emperor, Zhicai is willing to use all his knowledge in this life to block the Dragon Emperor north of the Yangtze River and prevent them from attacking Yangzhou."

Cao Cao listened to Xi Zhicai's words and said with a smile:"I know, although I am strategizing Compared with Zhicai, I can boost morale and rekindle the hope of the soldiers.

Although Zhicai can tell the soldiers how to fight, no matter how many strategies you have, the soldiers will not be able to fight. What's the use of not being able to complete the task you assigned?"

Xi Zhi realized that Cao Cao was telling the truth. The effect of his command on the battlefield would definitely be inferior to that of Cao Cao himself. In this way, he would be involved. , but it has no effect, it is indeed more gain than loss.

So Xi Zhicai stopped persuading Cao Cao. He just suggested:"In this case, Zhicai will not dissuade your majesty, but your majesty wants to lead the expedition in person, so Zhicai begged to go with your majesty. After all, there are many counselors in the Dragon Kingdom, such as Zhou Yu and Guo Kaden Yutaka and others are all full of tricks, and His Majesty cannot handle them alone."

Cao Cao nodded and said,"Zhicai is coming with me. Not only can he boost morale, but he can also command the army to defeat the enemy. It's natural.

" Seeing Cao Cao's agreement, Zhicai continued:"Although the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry were severely damaged and General Zihe died, according to Zhongde, there are still more than a thousand remaining troops of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. Please call them back to regroup." , as His Majesty's personal bodyguard, to protect His Majesty's safety.

In addition, Xu Chu, the commander of the palace guards, is the most powerful general in our country. He should be the only one who can compete with Zhao Yun, Dian Wei and others.

Therefore, your Majesty, please appoint Xu Chu as the new commander-in-chief of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. , accompanying His Majesty every day, always surrounding His Majesty's safety."

After hearing this, Cao Cao continued to nod and said:"The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are the most elite troops under my command, and they are also the hard work of Zi He. I will naturally take them back. Without a suitable commander, Before, I would personally take him with me as a guard.

As for Xu Chu, he is the commander-in-chief of the palace guards and is responsible for protecting my safety.

Now that I am marching in person, he will naturally follow me. Not only can he protect my It is safe, and when necessary, he needs to go into battle to resist the generals of the Dragon Kingdom."

Xi Zhicai saw that Cao Cao agreed to all his suggestions, so he stopped talking and started thinking about how to retreat from the enemy.

Although he knew that since the Dragon Kingdom launched such a large-scale battle this time, not only all the military generals came out, but even the Dragon Emperor personally marched, he naturally wanted to decide in one battle and eliminate the Wei Kingdom.

And with the strength of the Wei State, it is almost impossible to defeat the Dragon State.

But he could only try his best to delay the Long Kingdom's attack as much as possible, at least to defend Yangzhou and leave a little breathing space for the Wei Kingdom.

According to intelligence, the Shu Kingdom has achieved some victories. When Liu Bei drives Ma Teng out of Yizhou, he will definitely send troops to rescue the Wei Kingdom.

By then, with the support of Shu, we might be able to reverse the disadvantage.

That's why Xi Zhi set the goal to hold back the Dragon Kingdom's army and wait for Shu Kingdom's rescue.

With the arrival of Wei Emperor Cao Cao and Prime Minister Xi Zhicai, the morale of the Wei army really increased. Under Xi Zhicai's planning, the Wei state barely blocked the attack of Ma Chao and Xu Shu.

However, neither Cao Cao nor Xi Zhicai were excited about this achievement, because they knew that it was only temporary.

Ma Chao's troops were just the vanguard. By the time Liu Feng's army arrived at the Xuzhou front line, it was still difficult for the Wei soldiers to withstand the Dragon State's offensive.

But what puzzled Cao Cao and Xi Zhicai was that after Cao Cao arrived in Xuzhou, Liu Feng actually slowed down his attack.

Not only did Ma Chao's vanguard army stop attacking after encountering stubborn resistance from the Wei army, but even Liu Feng's main army stopped at Xiapi State and did not continue to march south.

Just when Cao Cao and Xi Zhicai were puzzled by the abnormal behavior of the Dragon Kingdom's army, several palace guards came from Yangzhou, hurriedly found Cao Cao, and reported:"Your Majesty is not well! The

Jinfan Army of the Dragon Kingdom unexpectedly They came from the moat and raided Jianye, now the imperial city is in danger!"
