Chapter 1044 Nothing
Qin Song and Pang Tong looked at each other and laughed like two foxes.
"Wen Biaosong, have you worked hard?" Pang Tong patted his face and said, "I am afraid that I will embarrass General Sun in this way."
Qin Song couldn't help laughing, and got up to tidy up his clothes. "Shi Yuan, I'm ashamed of you saying this. OK, Jiang Ziyi is not here, I'll act as a lobbyist. You use your brain, I'll talk." After saying that, he slowly walked out, walked to the tent, stopped again, turned to squeeze his eyes at Pang Tong. "Shi Yuan, wait for a while, you ask me to call me."
Pang Tong nodded knowingly. The two of them couldn't help laughing. Qin Song came out of the tent, with his hands behind his back, and waved to the camp gate. Looking at Wei Zhen who was paced back and forth in the camp gate, before he could speak, he opened his mouth and yawned.
"I dare to ask who is this? I'm asking for a meeting in the middle of the night, what's the matter?"
Wei Zhen was blocked outside the camp gate for a while and was anxious. Cao Ang and Chen Gong decided to retreat, but how to withdraw was very particular. Sun Ce told him that he was whether to decide before sunrise, whether to leave the city before dawn or before dawn? If it was just a decision, it would be easy to deal with. Cao Ang had enough time to clean up. If it was leaving the city, it would be too hasty, and they were difficult to take away a large amount of supplies in the city. His task was to negotiate and buy time. Unexpectedly, no one was seen at the gate of the camp, but he saw that the lights were brightly lit in the camp, and soldiers were coming and going, looking like they were about to fight.
"At Xia Wei Zhen, General Cao was in charge of his horse and came to negotiate with General Sun at the order of General Cao."
"Which General Sun?" Qin Song looked careless.
"Uh... Of course, it's the general who is seeking rebellion. I've just met him in Feng Kai's camp and had an agreement."
"General, he is asleep. Please come back if you have anything to do, let's talk about it tomorrow. Look, it's almost dawn, I really don't have much time to accompany you." Qin Song waved his hand, and while talking, he covered his mouth with his sleeves, muttering something.
When Wei Zhen heard the four words "It's almost dawn", he felt a little nervous. Judging from this posture, Sun Ce didn't expect Cao Ang to retreat on his own initiative, and was preparing to siege the city. Feng Kai's troops returned to the camp, and seemed to be giving up the north gate, or maybe retreating to the camp for rest. After all, they were wet yesterday, so they couldn't let the soldiers wear wet battle robes all the time. Go back and change their dry clothes and have a full meal to continue fighting.
Of course, there may be another reason: Feng Kai's new subordinate may not be able to be used, and it is not as reliable as Sun Jian's subordinate.
At this time, a clerk hurried over and said a few words in Qin Song's ear. Qin Song nodded repeatedly. "I know, I know, I'll come soon, I won't delay."
The more Wei Zhen listened, the more uneasy he felt, and he was not easy to ask. It was probably impossible for Qin Song to agree to him. The night was dark and dawn was approaching. He gritted his teeth and bowed. "Please inform General Sun, General Cao was willing to accept his suggestion and withdraw from Rencheng."
"General Sun asked you to withdraw from Rencheng?" Qin Song was "surprised". "Is this unlikely?"
"It's true. If you don't believe me, please inform General Sun and you will know it after asking."
"You... plan to withdraw from Rencheng? When?"
"Now." Wei Zhen was so angry that he was itchy. Judging from Qin Song's words, Sun Ce was not prepared to retreat at all. He just wanted to siege Rencheng.
Qin Song was stunned for a moment, stomped his feet, and shouted loudly: "Open the door, open the door, please ask Mr. Wei to enter the camp."
The soldiers opened the camp gate, and Qin Song asked Wei Zhen to invite him in and greet him again. Hearing that Qin Song was Sun Jian's military plan, not Sun Ce's subordinate, Wei Zhen suddenly realized and quickly made Sun Ce decide to him and told him about Cao Ang's withdrawal from Rencheng before Sunrise. Qin Song looked happy and cheerful. Although he said nothing, it made people feel that the original plan was to siege the city.
Qin Song used the excuse to ask for instructions and left Wei Zhen aside, letting him suffer for a while, then came out and said that Sun Jian reluctantly agreed and asked him to go into the city to negotiate with Cao Ang. If Cao Ang leaves the city before sunrise, he can let him have a way out. After sunrise, if Cao Ang does not leave the city, then don't leave.
Wei Zhen was panicked and had no time to think too much, so he hurriedly led Qin Song out of the camp. When he left Sun Jian's camp, the east was already showing white white, and there was only a short time left before the sunrise. The soldiers in Sun Jian's camp were already lined up, looking like they were preparing to go out to fight.
Wei Zhen did not dare to neglect, so as soon as he got on the car, he asked the coachman to ride his horse and rush back to the city.
After listening to Wei Zhen’s report, Cao Ang and Chen Gong still wanted to work hard, hoping that Sun Jian could give them more time.
Qin Song was very impatient. "Tell you the truth." Qin Song glanced at Cao Ang with a sarcastic look on his face. "General Yuan died because Ling Zun kidnapped Yuan Yao. One of the remaining orders was to ask General Sun to take Ling Zun's life. Ling Zun is now far away in Yizhou. Mrs. Yuan repeatedly asked General Sun to kill you and let Ling Zun taste the taste of losing his beloved son. General Cao, Yuan Envoy has been captured, and you are now the target of General Sun."
Cao Ang was very embarrassed. He only knew that one of Yuan Shu's orders was to ask Sun Ce to take Yuan Shao's life, but he didn't expect that there was one more. But after thinking about it carefully, this is also a fact. The reason why Yuan Shu died was because they robbed Yuan Yao to Yecheng. It was reasonable to make such a request, at least in line with Yuan Shu's temper. In this way, Sun Ce's sincerity to agree to his retreat was indeed not very sufficient.
Cao Ang did not hesitate anymore and immediately led his subordinates out of the city. They didn't have time to pack up too much, except for the armor, weapons, tents they carried with them, and each soldier only brought dry food for three days. This was prepared yesterday. Cao Ang arranged some big trucks to bring as much food as possible and leave as possible, but time was too tight, so a large amount of baggage could only be thrown into the city.
The prime minister of Rencheng Xu Yu was very depressed. He was the prefect of Runan when he was taken away by Sun Ce. Now he was the prime minister of Rencheng, but Sun Ce took away by Sun Ce. He was simply invaded with Sun Ce. Yuan Tan was captured and Cao Ang gave up Rencheng. He didn't want to stay in Rencheng anymore and retreated with Cao Ang.
Seeing Cao Ang hurriedly retreating, Qin Song sent a message to the scouts who were surveillance outside the city and ordered people to open the south gate and the west gate. Sun Jian was waiting all the time, and immediately ordered Huang Gai to take over Rencheng, while he personally led the camp to follow Cao Ang and sent him out of the border of Rencheng.
After leaving the city, Chaoyang had just jumped out of the horizon. Cao Ang held his mount and looked back at Ren Cheng, who was covered with a layer of golden light by Chaoyang. He sighed softly, feeling indescribable. Chen Gong had planned for so long that he wanted to seize Ren Cheng for him. The Lu area was the foundation for development, but he didn't expect that it would be a waste in the end. If it weren't for being too selfish and having a estrangement with Yuan Tan, but being in one's heart and virtue, would it be another result?
Chen Gong was sitting in the car, and heard Cao Ang's sigh through the wall, feeling indescribable discomfort. He lifted the curtain of the carriage and glanced at the carriage heading west in the distance. Xinpi was on the carriage. Cao Ang invited Xinpi to go with him, but Xinpi refused. Xinpi said that he was discouraged and had no intention of making achievements. He wanted to go back to his hometown in Yingchuan to rest and study behind closed doors. Cao Ang had no choice but to agree.
Chen Gong was surprised and did not understand Xin Pi's decision. This was not the result he expected, and things did not develop as he hoped. First, he was driven out of Rencheng by Sun Ce, and then rejected by Xin Pi. He planned for Cao Ang for so long, but he achieved nothing.
After leaving Rencheng, where should Cao Ang go next? Chen Gong was confused and indescribable.
