Volume 3 The Battle for the Underworld Chapter 89 Zhuge Kongming

"It's snowing. I stood at the head of Pengcheng City, holding a snowflake, "In this way, I am afraid that our supplies will become more and more difficult." "It is estimated that the good impression we have finally left on the people of Xuzhou will be gone." Xun You stood next to me and smiled bitterly, "Anyway, I hope this is the last time I will come to Xuzhou." This long-fought land has been hurt too deeply. ”

In the winter of the third year of Jian'an, Cao Cao's army crossed Surabaya, advanced to Xiapi, and fought with Lu Bu's army several times, although it had a slight upper hand, but failed to achieve substantial results. When the weather was cold, LΓΌ Bu's army withdrew to Xiapi City and could not defend it, Cao Cao's army was stationed in the wilderness, the supplies were insufficient, and the soldiers had begun to starve and freeze, and their morale was extremely low. In desperation, Lao Cao ordered that each ministry could borrow it from the homes of local residents according to their own needs.

The main force of Cao Cao's army itself was the Yellow Turban Army, and for a time the surrounding villages and towns were jumping and the people were struggling to make a living, but the morale of the soldiers was indeed greatly improved. "Fengxiao, Lone is right or wrong to do this. Lao Cao closed his eyes and asked me a little tiredly, "Right or wrong, the winner decides." "I took a sip of the liquor to warm up my body. "The last time I came to Xuzhou, the Qingzhou soldiers under my hands were still very gangster, and they were tired from fighting for a long time, and if they didn't want to let them indulge and indulge, then they wouldn't follow Gu anymore. Lao Cao snatched the wine bag in my hand and poured it, "But since that massacre, every once in a while, I have an unbearable headache, presumably the souls of Xuzhou are unwilling to let go of Lonely." ”

"Justice or not is not my concern. I laughed, "I only know that if this troubled world continues for one day, the evil of human nature will continue to run rampant for another day." Peace in the world can only be achieved by ending the troubled times. As for the means used, it does not matter. ”

In December, LΓΌ Bu's army had completely ceased to clash with us, and seemed determined to wait for us to run out of supplies and withdraw its troops. The cold is also not conducive to the siege, so we can only freeze in the camp. I have nothing to do, and I always wander around the camp to see if I can find a good way to break the enemy.

One day, I was walking alone along the official road, and I saw a convoy of trains being fenced down by our Tiger Guards, and several people dressed in good clothes had been killed. A teenager with a sword in his hand, guarding in front of the car, his body trembling slightly, I don't know if it was because of his thin clothes or because he was too scared.

"We are the family members of the Han officials, we are just passing through here, you take all the money, but please don't hurt the lives of my family. The boy said without humility or arrogance, but I know that the Tiger Guards are not reasonable people. "This place is soft and has a fart. The one who took the lead was Xu Chu's lackey I had seen before, Bai Bo, "I think so, you keep the money for yourself, those two chicks with fine skin and tender meat make the uncles happy." ”

"Please show some respect to your sister!" the young man's eyes lit up. "Kill me?" Bai Bo laughed, and suddenly kicked the boy on the wrist. The boy was in pain, and he could no longer hold the sword in his hand. Bai Bo grabbed his wrist, pressed the boy to the ground, and said with a smile: "Brothers, let's stimulate a little today and play with this kid's two sisters in front of him! Oh yes, arrange his mother too!"

"You are now powerful and powerful to fight for the tiger, one day, I will put an end to you rebels!" The young man's wrist was restrained, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead in pain, but he still fought with reason. I watched for a moment and jumped off the horse. "I'm guessing, you're going to do it. I said softly.

"Yes. A Qianren dressed in white quietly walked up to me, "I can't be as cold-blooded as you, or rather, I can't be like you Cao Jun, basing my pleasure on the pain of innocent people." ”

Qianying raised a black sword and rushed straight towards the Tiger Guard. "Hmph, I haven't seen you for more than a year, Ke Jue. "I also took out my Heavenly Sword from the herringbone scroll," this way of greeting is a bit cold. ”

A tiger guard was about to open the door of a carriage with a lewd smile on his face, but Ke Jue was about to kill, and the black blade of the green sword in his hand flashed, and the head and body of the tiger guard were separated. "There is an enemy!" Bai Bo reacted quickly, shook off the boy, drew his sword and was about to meet the enemy, but I blocked him.

"Guo Jia, what do you mean?" Bai Bo's face was hideous, "Are you going to betray Sikong?" "If Lao Cao keeps reusing your Tiger Guards, I don't have any point in staying. I sneered, "Bai Bo, you should still be ready to die, I have long seen that you are not pleasing to the eye." ”

Bai Bo roared angrily and swung his sword to slash, I didn't dodge or dodge, I directly raised my sword to meet him. He didn't expect that the moment the two swords came into contact, the dark energy on my Heavenly Sword directly corroded his sword into slag. Before I could react, I slammed myself into my sword.

At this time, Ke Jue had already killed the rest of the tiger guards, and only a few frightened ones scattered and fled. The two of us were ten meters apart, and after looking at each other for a while, she said, "Maybe I gave you some false illusions before, and the two of us are not the same kind of people. "Actually, it's essentially the same. I laughed, "You want to save people, and I save the world." "To make the desolate world even more desolate, if you Cao Jun call this salvation, then I have never seen such a brazen person." Ke Jue replied coldly, "Don't speculate for more than half a sentence, say goodbye." She turned and prepared to leave. I feel a faint sense of regret in my heart, but I also know that maybe we are really not all the way.

"I, I'll wait for you. After walking about ten meters, Ke Jue stopped, "I will wait for you to make a choice, and wait for you to figure out what it means to be saved." Then, before I could reply, she hurried away.

"I'd better figure out how to explain when I go back. I thought with a wry smile. "Thank you, sir, for saving your life. The boy came up to me and saluted me, and although he said thank you, I could feel the hatred in his tone.

"Our Cao Jun is really unpopular in Xuzhou. I sighed, "Boy, what's your name?" "Under the surname Zhuge , the name is bright, and the word Kong Ming." The boy said lightly. "Oh, my name is Guo Jia, the word is Fengxiao, whatever you remember. I said casually, "You should be from the Langya Wang clan and the Zhuge clan." ”

"Yes. Zhuge Liang replied, "Thanks to the arrival of your army, the Langya Zhuge clan will not be able to stay after all, and they must go." "Second brother, are you okay?" At this time, a child who looked to be less than ten years old ran out of the woods and got into Zhuge Liang's arms.

"This is my brother, Zhuge Jun. Zhuge Liang introduced, "Jun'er, the second brother is fine, I have seen Cao Cao's military advisor sacrifice wine Guo Jia Guo Fengxiao." "This... Is this the bad guy who gave the demon king a bad idea..."Zhuge Jun was a little scared and hid in Zhuge Liang's arms. "It seems that I am quite well-known. I was a little speechless, "But that's a bad idea." ”

"In short, thanks to Mr. Guo's help, it's time for us to go on the road, and the eldest brother is still waiting for us by the river. Zhuge Liang threw his younger brother into the carriage, "Wait a minute." I took hold of the reins of their horses, "I want to ask you, what is the peace and prosperity in your heart?" "At the very least, people don't have to flee the war to leave their homes. Zhuge Liang said after a little thought. "Then do you think that during the time of Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty, people could live and work in peace and contentment?" I continued to ask, "You, no, we, the noble families, will not feel the pain of those low-level people who belong to us in the peaceful and prosperous world. However, after you have left your homeland, I am sure you will feel it. ”
