下邳城曹操鏖兵,白門樓呂布殞命 - Cao Cao Makes Flood In Xiapi; Lu Bu Perishes At The White Gate Tower

30 下邳城曹... :
卻說曹操攻城,兩月不下,忽報:「河內太守張揚出兵東市,欲救呂布;部將楊醜殺之,欲將頭獻丞相,欲被張揚心腹將眭固所殺,反投大城去了。」操聞報,即遣史渙追斬眭固。因聚眾將曰:「張揚雖幸自滅,然北有袁紹之憂,東有表、繡之患,下邳久圍不克。吾欲捨布還都,暫且息戰,何如?」荀攸急止曰:「不可,呂布屢敗,銳氣已墮。軍以將為主,將衰則軍無戰心。彼陳宮雖有謀而遲,今布之氣未復,宮之謀未定,作速政之,布可擒也。」郭嘉曰:「某有一計,下邳城可立破,勝於二十萬師。」荀彧曰:「莫非決沂、泗之水乎?」嘉笑曰:「正是此意。」
Cao Cao Makes Flood...:
The siege had gone on for two months, and still the city stood. Then they heard that Zhang Yang, Governor of Henei, had been inclined to come to the help of Lu Bu. But one of his subordinates, Yang Chou, had assassinated him and was bringing his head as an offering to Cao Cao, when Yang Chou had also been slain by Kui Gu, one of the Governor's adherents. Kui Gu had then led the force to Daicheng.
In the camp of the besiegers, there now arose much murmuring. Cao Cao sent Shi Huan to intercept and kill Kui Gu.
Then he called a counsel, saying, "Though Zhang Yang, who meant to hurt us, is happily no more, yet we are threatened on the north by Yuan Shao, and on the west Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu are a menace. Here we meet with no success against the city of Xiapi. We are for leaving Lu Bu to his fate and returning home. What do you think?"
Among them Xun You fought against the idea, saying, "You must not act like this. Lu Bu has lost much, and his spirit is broken. The spirit of the leader expresses that of his army; and when the leader fails, his soldiers do not fight. Chen Gong is clever, but nothing is done. Lu Bu broken, Chen Gong without decision, it only needs a sharp attack, and we shall succeed."
"I have a plan to propose," said Guo Jia, "a plan to overcome the city at once. It is better than two hundred thousand troops."
"I suppose you mean drowning the city by River Si and River Yi," said Xun Yu.
"That is it," said Guo Jia, smiling.
