Reborn Duke In Three Kingdoms - Chapter 889

Cao Cao said nothing.

He didn’t get angry, nodded slightly, turned his eyes to Liu Ye, and solemnly asked, “Liu Qing, what do you think?”

Liu Ye is the descendant of Liu Yan, the son of Liu Xiu of Emperor Guangwu and the king of Fuling. Liu Ye was young and well-known. He was known as Zuo Shicai. He was a very important counselor under Cao Cao.

However, because of Liu Ye’s family background, his situation is somewhat embarrassing.

Cao Cao asked, but Liu Ye hesitated.

After half a sound, Liu Ye replied, “I will follow your majesty to the death, and I will fight to the end with your majesty.”

After all, he is a person surnamed Liu. At this time, it is more appropriate to show his attitude to follow Cao Cao. If you are like Yang Xiu, I’m afraid it will cause Cao Pi’s anger and attack. Yang Xiu was born in Hongnong’s Yang family. He was covered by a long family. Even if Cao Cao wanted to deal with Liu Xiu, he had to think twice. Liu Ye is different, he has no backing, can only choose to wear a pair of pants with Cao Cao to fight to the end.

Cao Cao chuckled and shook his head.

Liu Ye’s consideration is obvious to him.

However, Cao Cao did not ask Liu Ye again. Liu Ye’s attitude is enough. Cao Cao also asked his officials one by one for their opinions. Some officials in the DPRK are willing to fight to the death, some persuade them to surrender, and some are silent

But after Yang Xiu started, many people persuaded him to surrender.

No matter who surrendered or did not surrender, no one was optimistic about the state of Wei.

Everyone, it’s the same.

Cao Cao looks at Cao Zhang standing in the hall. Cao Zhang is very brave in armor. This dress made Cao Cao very happy. Cao Cao laughed and asked, “zhang’er, what do you think?”

Cao Zhang said: “without him, there is only a fight to the death.”

Cao Cao nodded and his eyes turned.

Some people are willing to fight to the death, others are willing to surrender, but his lineage supports the fight to the death.

Cao Cao thought about it and said, “pi’er!”

“My son is here!”

Cao Pi stood up and knelt down in front of Cao Cao.

With sharp eyes, Cao Cao said, “from today on, you will be in charge of the military and political affairs of the state of Wei. When you are in Yecheng, I allow you to deploy troops and organize soldiers to resist the Chu army. However, it is not allowed to offend those who raise objections today. ”

“My son, obey the order!”

Cao Pi’s eyes glistened with fine light.

As long as ye city is guarded and Liu Xiu’s army is blocked, the state of Wei will have a chance to breathe. And through this war, his prestige can be completely established.

In the hall, the ministers were relieved. Cao Cao’s last command actually protected them and enabled Cao Pi to resist again.

“Retreat!”

Cao Cao gave a command and trembled to go to the back palace.

When Cao Pi was in power, he United Cao Zhang and other generals, and Xunzhou and other generals, and began to deploy troops and deploy the defense of Yecheng. Cao Pi took advantage of those who were willing to fight to death, but Cao Pi didn’t do anything to persuade them to surrender at the ceremony, but he arranged soldiers to watch them to avoid collusion with Liu Xiu.

The whole power of Yecheng was mobilized by Cao Pi.

At the end of October, the weather is getting colder and colder.

The vanguard led by Zhao Yun arrived at Yecheng first. Without saying a word, Zhao Yun directly sent people to attack Yecheng. However, Yecheng is the capital of the state of Wei. Moreover, Cao Pi was well prepared and had a strong defensive force.

Even if Zhao Yun took a strong attack, he did not win Yecheng and was always blocked outside. Although the morale of the state of Wei was low, all the strength of the state of Wei was placed in Yecheng, which could resist Zhao Yun’s attack for the time being.

On this day, it snowed.

It’s snowing all over the north.

Inside and outside the city, there was a lot of white, falling into a frozen world.

At this time, the armies led by Liu Xiu also arrived in Yecheng. Several armies were close to the city, and Liu Xiu chose to encircle Yecheng with three and one. Because of the freezing weather and the heavy snow, Liu Xiu did not rush to attack, but set up camp outside the city.

Although it was winter, the weather was cold, but there was an endless supply of food and clothing from the rear, and the soldiers of the state of Chu were not cold. In particular, pumpkin has achieved a good harvest, and is being used in the military on a large scale, reducing the pressure of food consumption.

Time flies by.

In a flash, more than a month has passed,

in December, the weather is colder and the heavy snow has never stopped. This year’s heavy snow is bigger than ever, and the whole world is covered with snow. Such a cold winter puts great pressure on the soldiers inside and outside the city. Although the soldiers of the state of Wei were in the city, they had to patrol after all, which was also very difficult. Especially when they are trapped in Yecheng, their morale is low, and they are under great pressure.

On the contrary, it was the Chu army outside the city. Although they met the cold winter, their morale was strong.

After all, they have witnessed miracles many times.

On this day, the Chinese army has a big debt.

In Liu Xiu’s camp, there are braziers burning with coals. Liu Xiu sat in front of the brazier, baking the fire, looking at the book. During this period, because of the weather, it was not conducive to siege. Liu Xiu did not order the attack. The army was stationed for the time being to launch the attack after the Spring Festival.”Step on it! Step on it

A sound of footwork came in from outside the camp.

Wenpin strode in with a bright smile on his face and said, “Your Majesty, good news!”

“What’s the good news?”

Liu Xiu put down his book and looked up.

After Wen pin saluted, he sat down in front of Liu Xiu and reported: “just now, the first harvest of sweet potatoes came from Luoyang. Your Majesty’s ten Mu sweet potato seedlings, planted in all parts of Luoyang, are now harvested on a large scale. Although there was heavy snow this year, the soldiers reported that the sweet potato harvest was very good and was not affected by the heavy snow. It’s another miracle that Chu can still have a good harvest in this year’s weather. ”

Wenpin later learned about sweet potato seedlings.

As for Liu Xiu, he was like a God.

With a smile on his face, Liu Xiu said, “if you peel the sweet potato, you can cut it into small pieces and cook it in the rice. Similarly, it can be roasted. Now that the sweet potatoes have been sent, you tell the people in the fire room to roast them in the fire. They all choose a dozen sweet potatoes. After they are roasted, they are cut and distributed to the soldiers in the army. We must ensure that all soldiers can have sweet potatoes. ”

“Here it is

Wenpin was ordered to go down immediately.

Liu Xiu also had a smile on his face.

With sweet potato, it means that Chu has another strategic material.

Half an hour later, wenpin came in with a few sweet potatoes, all baked and warm. Liu Xiu took it and peeled off the crunchy skin to reveal the red heart inside.

A refreshing fragrance filled the tent.

Liu Xiu waved his hand and said, “Wenqing, do it yourself. Don’t sit around.”

Liu Xiu said a word and ate sweet potato.

In later generations, this is a very common food. But this is the first time that Liu Xiu ate it in his life. It’s a memorable experience. Especially sweet potato sweet crisp soft, and pumpkin flavor is different, eat very comfortable.

Wenpin swallowed his saliva. He picked up a sweet potato, peeled off the scorched skin, and ate it. Eating sweet potatoes, I feel very happy.

In winter, it’s the happiest thing to eat the gift.

When they were eating sweet potatoes, the tent curtain was lifted and Xu Shu came in again. Seeing that Liu Xiu and Wen pin were eating, Xu Shu said with a smile on his face, “Your Majesty, some of the soldiers have also eaten sweet potatoes. When they learn that this is a gift from your majesty, their morale is greatly boosted and they are full of confidence.”

“In this winter, sweet potato is a gift from heaven, which is of great help to our morale.”

“Weichen suggested that, just like pumpkin, we should prepare a batch of them, then heat them with charcoal fire and send them to Cao Cao. This article is bound to strike Cao Cao again. It would be great if Cao Cao was completely disheartened. ”

Xu Shu continued: “now it’s snowing all over the sky, and the soldiers of Wei state under Cao Cao are suffering. Let’s add another fire to ensure that their morale will be low and they will not have the mind to resist any more.”

Liu xiuxiao said: “Yuanzhi, last time, you actively opposed it.”
