Chapter 527: A Difficult Choice

Cao Cao was already in an unhappy mood, and when he saw that the soldiers looked very embarrassed, he couldn't help but say angrily: "What's the panic? Is it that Lu Bu is coming to call for battle again, refusing to fight, he doesn't really want to fight me, I am attacking the city, he is defending the city, I am not in a hurry, what is he anxious about?"

"No, my lord, it's something more terrible than Lu Bujun's coming to call for battle!" the soldier panted, "My lord, let's go out and have a look!"

"What's so serious?" Cao Cao muttered, "Mingyang, you rest first, I'll go see what's going on?"

As soon as Cao Cao and the generals walked out of the tent, they were stunned on the spot. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The sky was covered with black and oppressive flying objects, obscuring the sky and the sun, as if they had been blown by a cloudy wind from the depths of hell, and swooped down on the crops that were rotting in the rain.

Locust!

Countless swarms of locusts swept through the food that the people relied on for their livelihood, and the sound of flapping their wings concentrated to make people feel as if they were facing the end of the world.

It may not be the end of the world, but it may be the end of his Cao Cao!

Also including the end of Lu Bu?

Gao Yi also saw this apocalyptic scene while holding on to the tent door, and the corners of his mouth swelled with indescribable bitterness.

If it is a living enemy, it is possible to take up arms and fight them, to fight with them, to grab grain and grass, to seize territory, to grab money, treasure, and reputation, but the opponent is this ruthless nature.

People, can't you really fight with the sky?

Or is it that the heavens have always laughed and watched humans kill each other in the depths of the vast sea of clouds, just like adults watch children play games, occasionally intervening and teasing ignorant humans?

Cao Cao turned around, and the expression on his face changed: "God, do you really want to kill me Cao Cao?"

"Hahahaha!" a man tied to a long pole on the high platform in the open space of the barracks laughed loudly, "Cao Cao, I couldn't kill you a few days ago, but now you are going to starve to death!

Xiahou Yuan was furious when he heard the man's voice: "This guy has been tortured for so many days and can still not die, it's really hard, take my bow and see if his skin can withstand my wolf tooth arrows!"

"No!" When the soldier heard this, he immediately respectfully took Xiahou Yuan's bow and arrow, only to see Xiahou Yuan take the arrow and wind it, aiming at the man on the long pole and about to shoot his own stunt.

Gao Yi also saw the person tied to the pole clearly at this time: Xiao Yi!

"Leave people under the arrow!" Gao Yi suddenly shouted.

Cao Cao and the others looked back at Gao Yi one after another, and Xiahou Yuan also lost his crosshair carelessly, the arrow was grazing Xiao Yi's body, and the wolf tooth barbarbs on the feather arrow directly brought down a large piece of skin and flesh on Xiao Yi's shoulder.

Gao Yi gasped, if Xiahou Yuan hadn't missed that arrow, Xiao Yi would probably have no life at this time, right?

Cao Cao asked Gao Yi puzzled: "This person can't assassinate me, Mingyang, your injury is also due to him, why don't you let Miaocai kill this person?"

"Senior Brother Meng De doesn't know anything...... Gao Yi coughed twice, looked at Xiao Yidao, who had been tortured to the point of being inhuman, "Senior Brother Meng De ordered someone to let him go first, I naturally have a lot to ask him!"

Cao Cao frowned, but finally waved his hand and ordered the soldiers to let Xiao Yi down: "His brother was killed by Yuan Rang three days ago, and he never mentioned anything else, so it's useless to keep it!"

As soon as Xiao Yi's body hit the ground, he immediately softened, although he was covered in scars, his mouth was very powerful: "Cao Cao* I can't eat your flesh and drink your blood!"

"Shut up!" Gao Yi interrupted Xiao Yi and asked in a suspicious tone, "I brought you in, but why did you assassinate General Cao?"

Xiao Yi looked at the scar on Gao Yi's chest with apologetic eyes and said: "Gao Fujun, I'm sorry, I took advantage of your kindness and injured you, I think my brother is also dead, and I am also a person who is about to die, this is enough to offset the mistake!"

"You haven't answered my question yet!Why did you assassinate General Cao?" Gao Yi's tone suddenly became sharp, and his eyes were full of aggressive momentum.

"Who is he? deserves Gao Fujun to speak for him like this?" Xiao Yi grinned bitterly, and then yelled at the top of his voice, "He is not as good as a pig and a dog, Gao Fujun still calls him a senior brother repeatedly, who would have such a senior brother who treats human life like an ant?"

"......" Everyone was stunned, what did this Xiao Yi want to say?

"Say, go on!" Cao Cao looked at Xiao Yi with interest, who was as terrifying as a ghost, completely forgetting the flying locusts all over the sky behind him, "How can I be inferior to pigs and dogs, and how can I treat human life like ants and mustards?"

Xiao Yi didn't look at Cao Cao at all, only hummed in his nose: "My family lives in Xuzhou, and they all died under your butcher's knife a few months ago!" After saying this, Xiao Yi's eyes closed and he didn't say a word again.

"......" Cao Cao was silent for a moment, and the corners of his mouth were flooded with expressions that he didn't know whether to laugh or be angry, "I have nothing to say about this, it is indeed my mistake, I hereby apologize to you and your dead family!"

Xiahoudun hurriedly stopped Cao Cao: "Meng De, those people colluded with Tao Qian's army to sneak attack us, and they are more than innocent......

Cao Cao stretched out his hand to stop Xiahoudun's words: "Needless to say, the truth is indeed that I was wrong, the battle of Xuzhou caused tens of thousands of people to leave their homes, and many children have become orphans, even if they really come to me for revenge in the future, I have no complaints!"

Xiao Yi continued: "Don't pretend to be a good person, kill my father and then apologize to my son, is it over?"

Cao Hong grabbed Xiao Yi's shirt: "Then what do you want this guy to do?"

Xiao Yi slowly spit out four words from his mouth: "I want him to die!"

Cao Cao looked directly into Xiao Yi's eyes: "I promised you, I will die to show you, but now is not the time, after completing my Cao Mengde's hegemony, my life is also like an antgrass mustard at your disposal!"

Xiao Yi was at a loss after hearing Cao Cao's words: "What do you mean?"

"I, Cao Cao, have killed many people in my life!" Cao Cao said with emotion, as if he was talking to others, and it was like talking to himself, "Some people really don't deserve to die, but there is no way, if they don't die, I will live a miserable life, whether it is a political enemy or an innocent person, not to mention the soldiers who died on the battlefield, every one of them I am sorry for them, I once gave them a very happy ideal, and it is also the ideal that has always supported me Cao Mengde, for the people who died for this hegemony, what else can I do except feel guilty?" How did this troubled world come about? Could it be that I, Cao Mengde, am really just a bloodthirsty murderous demon?" In the end, Cao Cao was already too excited to control himself.

Has you changed? Where did the previous self go? It's been four years since the Yellow Turban, how many subordinates have been loyal and betrayed in the past four years, Chen Gong, Wei Chong, Zhang Miao, one by one, the guys who trust and think they are stabbing their hearts one after another, Yanzhou is almost completely lost, and this is another unprecedented adversity since the defeat of Xingyang!

"I don't know what you're talking about, but I'll definitely live well and watch you achieve your hegemony!

A military doctor had already stepped forward to check Xiao Yi's wound, and after confirming that it was not in the way, he bandaged it again, and Xiao Yi was like a cocoon at this time, and was carried into a carriage next to him.

Gao Yi was also persuaded by Cao Cao to get into the carriage: "Senior Brother Mengde, I really want to stay and help you deal with Lu Bu!"

"No!" Cao Cao's tone was unquestionable, "Go back to Juancheng to recuperate, Hua Tuo should have arrived, and this Xiao Yi is also going to be placed under house arrest, good boy, it can actually make me feel a lot, will it be a character in the future?"

Gao Yi smiled slightly and said, "Senior Brother Meng De kills people vigorously, but now it's really rare not to kill this person!"

"Hmph!" Cao Cao snorted lightly, "I'm not Dong Zhuo, I don't have a habit of killing people for fun! Go back and help Feng Xiao guard Juancheng, I'm already very grateful for you to lend Dian Wei to me for use, and Zhongde is coming soon, now you won't worry about the lack of military advisors in my army, right?"

"Hmm!" Gao Yi nodded, "Cheng Lidu is in his fifties, so he is naturally much stronger than me, a yellow-haired boy!"

"Now that we have reached the Jedi, we can only survive by counterattacking!" Cao Cao shouted, "Prepare to go down and attack Lu Bu!"

Gao Yi had already entered the car, and was slightly surprised when he heard Cao Cao's words: "Senior Brother Mengde, the current situation is to attack Lu Bu?

Cao Cao nodded: "Mingyang, you don't know, yesterday there was a wealthy family in Puyang City who was dissatisfied with Lu Bu's excessive collection of taxes and miscellaneous taxes in the city, so he sent someone to secretly communicate a letter, saying that the Ximen guard would be bought by him, and he would quietly lead our army into the city at the third watch tonight!" Cao Cao took out a letter from his bosom for Gao Yi to read.

"The villain Tian said: Lu Bu since entering Yanzhou, many injustices, the people grit their teeth and hate, dare to be angry but dare not speak, coincide with tonight the West Gate guard is just a friend of the villain, more favored by the villain, at the time of the third watch, please Cao Gong Chen Bing outside the West Gate, with the six words of 'Weiyang Palace Phoenix Terrace' as the code word, the villain should open the West Gate, lead the troops in, and sword Lu Bu!

"Mingyang, why don't you speak?, is there any problem?" Cao Cao regretted showing Gao Yi this letter a little, he had a hunch that Gao Yi would be itching to go into battle again when he saw this letter, and refused to return to Juancheng.

Gao Yi repeatedly stared at the content of the letter and chewed in his heart: This surnamed Tian must be the businessman who deceived Cao Cao, otherwise how could a mere businessman have such a good literary talent?

"Cao Gong Chen Bing is outside the West Gate, with the six characters of 'Weiyang Palace Phoenix Terrace' as a code word"?

Gong, Chen, Gong, Tai.

Chen Gong Gongtai!

This letter was written by Chen Gong himself, and Chen Gong also knew that this letter would go to Cao Cao and himself, so in addition to the meaning of the words in the letter, there was also a very obvious meaning for Gao Yi to listen to himself:

I set a trap in Puyang City, Gao Fujun, are you helping Lu Bu or Cao Cao?

Gao Yi thought like this, looking at Cao Cao with a smile on his face, he completely had an expression that he didn't know that he was about to face another danger.

Chen Gong is nakedly forcing himself to submit! I thought that I could control the overall situation, and let Cao Cao and Lu Bu fight like this, and both would lose, but I didn't know that it was really the strongest of the strong!

So, who exactly do you help?
