Volume 2 Chapter 62 of the Strategy
Puyang City in the early morning is full of fog.
At this time, in the morning mist, countless white flags were faintly visible, and when the morning fog gradually dispersed, I finally saw what it was.
I saw a full-body army through the fog and appeared outside Puyang City, they were fully armed, murderous, the scene was majestic, it was really a mountain of guns and halberds, and swords were like a forest.
Cao Cao finally sent troops to Xuzhou!
Because of Cao Song's death, Cao Cao went on an expedition to Xuzhou under the banner of revenge, and more than ninety percent of Yanzhou's troops were invested in this expedition.
Among them, even the Qingzhou Army, which had just formed an army, also joined the expedition team, and as the main force of the Chinese army, it was personally commanded by Cao Cao, and Xiahoudun was the vanguard general, leading 8,000 tigers and leopards to ride in front of the army to open the way.
Guo Jia was the military advisor, Xun You planned an offensive strategy for joining the army, and the rest of the generals were assigned, while Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, Liu Ye and Lu Qian were responsible for staying in Yanzhou.
Unlike previous campaigns, Cao Cao did not ride a horse into battle, but sat on a huge carriage drawn by several horses, which was shaped like a room, and the inside was very spacious, so that Cao Cao could sit peacefully in it and give orders and command the whole army.
Guo Jia rode leisurely behind Cao Cao's carriage, when Xun You chased after him from behind and asked Guo Jia: "Fengxiao, doesn't the lord usually take you with him to discuss important matters at any time?" Why is the lord sitting in such a big car this time, and no one is seen? ”
Guo Jia said: "Since the murder of the lord's family, his temperament has become more and more eccentric, not only irritable, but also nowhere to be seen, and any orders are conveyed to everyone by General Dian Wei. ”
Xun You asked, "Then let's go and ask General Dian Wei, how is the lord doing now?" I'm really worried about his body. ”
Guo Jia nodded, so the two of them rode to the side of the carriage, only to see Dian Wei standing in front of the door of the wing room on the carriage, mighty and extraordinary, with his protection, even if the battle broke out, Cao Cao's carriage was the safest.
Xun You whispered to Dian Wei: "General Dian Wei, please come here!" ”
Dian Wei's ears were sensitive, and even though the army was marching, there were footsteps everywhere, he could still clearly hear Xun You's voice calling him.
Dian Wei glanced back at the wing room and hesitated slightly, but still quietly walked to the guardrail of the carriage and asked Xun You and Guo Jia in a low voice, "What are you looking for me?" ”
Xun You arched his hand and said, "General Dian Wei, we just want to know what is happening to the lord now?" ”
Dian Wei frowned, sighed, shook his head at the two of them, he turned around, and when he left, he warned Guo Jia and Xun You, and said, "You should be careful in the future, don't approach here easily, otherwise you will be in danger of losing your life at any time." After saying that, he ignored the two men and walked back to the carriage to continue to be on guard.
Xun You was silent, lowered his head and pondered, and the two of them waited for Cao Cao's carriage to advance a distance before talking in a low voice: "The situation of the lord is indeed too strange, and leading the army to go out in this situation is a great omen!" ”
Guo Jia said: "The matter has come to this, we can only act at the opportunity, and the main problem now is that we can't see the lord, even if we have anything to say, we don't have a chance to tell him, we have to find a way to meet him." ”
Xun You frowned and said, "Didn't you hear what General Dian Wei said just now?" Now to talk to the lord is simply looking for death, I think, let's save our heads first, and then think of other ways. ”
At this time, Xun You suddenly remembered something, so he asked Guo Jia: "By the way, what about General Yuan Rang?" He is the best friend of the lord's life and death, maybe he has a way to meet the lord! ”
I saw Guo Jia shake his head and said, "It's useless, the current lord is completely different from before, even General Yuan Rang can't see him." ”
Xun You was surprised: "How can this be? ”
Guo Jia said with a serious expression: "This matter is too strange, I think it is related to the celestial phenomena observed a few days ago, I will definitely find out about this matter!" After Guo Jia finished speaking, he rode forward on Huang Mao, and before Xun You could ask what he meant, Guo Jia and Huang Mao disappeared into the crowd.
And at this time, in the carriage of the carriage, Cao Cao was covering his head in pain, since he heard the news of Cao Song's death that day, his head was in severe pain, as if it was cracked, so that his temperament also became irritable, and he wanted to kill, in order not to let himself get out of control and hurt the people around him, so he ordered not to see anyone, as for Dian Wei, he believed that even if he was crazy and wanted to kill him, he also had the ability to protect himself.
Cao Cao's head hurt more and more, it used to be only after occasional nightmares at night, and his head would hurt when he woke up from the dream, but since that day, this situation has become more and more frequent, not only nightmares, but even hallucinations when he wakes up during the day, and then accompanied by severe pain, which makes him feel painful.
"Cao Mengde, do you still recognize me?"
Suddenly, an eerie and terrifying voice appeared in the carriage room, and the originally noisy sound of the army marching became quiet, Cao Cao endured a headache and barely opened his eyes, only to see that the surroundings had completely changed, and the surroundings were blood-red, and there was a black giant beast staring at him in front of him, and the sound was made by this giant beast.
