Late at night, Cao Cao's large tent of the Chinese army was brightly lit.

Now all the sergeants are working day and night, building fortifications, lighting torches even at night, without stopping.

It's just that the soldiers are not iron-clad after all, so they have to be given time to rest.

In the middle of the night, the soldiers rested, but the civil and military generals couldn't sleep, so they took advantage of this time to hurry up and discuss the matter.

Liu Ping has been very tired recently, and he saw that his father-in-law and uncles were about to go into battle in person because they were in a hurry.

Naturally, he couldn't turn a blind eye and could only step forward to help.

As a result, I am tired and have a sore back every day, and I can't sleep well at night, and my life is inevitably miserable.

Fortunately, Lu Qi, who was deeply guilty, would come to his tent every night and take the initiative to massage him, which could also relieve the fatigue on his body a little.

"Now that the Yuan army is about to be killed, what is your best strategy to retreat from the enemy?" Cao Cao, who had a dusty face, hoarsely voiced, glanced at the civil and military officers with a solemn expression.

"It's not difficult," Cao Chun suddenly smiled: "If Yuan Shao dares to come, let Ping'er dispatch Lu Bu, and let Lu Wenhou kill Yuan Shao in the army of ten thousand horses, wouldn't the rest be simple?" ”

At this time, they already knew that the reason why Liu Ping led 10,000 horses to behead Yan Liang and Wen Chou was because of Lu Bu's help.

Since this is the case, then let Lu Bu continue to attack.

"The son-in-law wants to ask his father-in-law for guilt," Liu Ping, who was also disgraced, stood up and said to Cao Cao: "A few days ago, there was news that Yuan Shao was about to send an assassin to assassinate General Lu's wife.

General Lü had left a letter and left the place.

In his letter, he said that he would protect his wife and concubine and defect to Cangwu Taishou Wu Ju, and would no longer ask about disputes in the Central Plains.

As for the red rabbit horse, when he arrives in Cangwu, he will send someone to send it back. ”

It turned out that Man Chong had received a secret report in Xudu that someone was trying to plot against Mrs. Lu, so he sent someone to inform Liu Ping.

Lu Qi was also present at the time, so he leaked the news to his father.

Lu Bu was naturally very anxious when he heard this, and at the same time asked Liu Ping if the humid air in the south was good for his wife's sick body.

In fact, at that time, Liu Ping had already realized that Lu Bu had already had the intention of going, but he did not stop him.

After all, Liu Ping knew in his heart that the key to winning the battle of Guandu was in Wuchao, not in Lu Bu.

So, Lu Bu, who received an affirmative reply, left a letter that night and said goodbye.

At the beginning, Hua Tuo persuaded him to take his wife to settle in a humid land.

Now he has come full circle, delayed for nearly two years, and almost killed his wife during this period, but finally took his wife and embarked on the road south.

As for his daughter Lu Qi, she has found a good home, and he doesn't have to worry about it anymore.

It is best to go south, avoid the disturbances of the Central Plains, and go to Cangwu County, which is almost a wilderness.

And Lu Qi felt that he had revealed the news to his father privately, and he was a little sorry for Liu Ping, so he took the initiative to run to Liu Ping's tent every night while it was dark and gave Liu Ping a massage to atone for his sins.

"He's just gone?" The generals of the Cao clan were in an uproar.

Cao Chun said hurriedly: "How far has he gone, wait for me to lead the army to capture him back." ”

"That's it!" Cao Cao had a look of disappointment on his face, but waved his hand.

Previously, Lu Bu wanted to surrender, but he didn't dare to accept it.

Now that the situation is critical, I also realize that Lu Bu, who has the Red Rabbit Horse, is indeed extremely powerful, and no one in the world can match it.

If Lu Bu helped, it would be of great benefit to the upcoming battle of Guandu, but Lu Bu actually said goodbye.

"People have their own ambitions, they can't be forced, this time Lu Bu didn't defect to the enemy, but he just took his wife and concubine to escape away from the country, you forced him to come back, but what is the use of making enemies?"

"But he kidnapped the eldest brother's red rabbit horse?"

"The Red Rabbit Horse was originally his, not to mention that this time Lu Bu beheaded Yan Liang and Zhu Wenchou, and helped Ping'er kill 100,000 Yuan Jun, and the merits he made were enough to return to the Red Rabbit Horse, don't mention this matter again, think about another strategy."

Cao Cao paused, then looked at Liu Pingdao, who was bowing down, and said: "The battle of Ping'er White Horse is a great achievement, and this time Lu Bu left, it is not that you can get up and speak." ”

"Thank you, father-in-law!"

Liu Ping couldn't help but be impressed.

I have to say that my father-in-law's mind was broadened to the extreme before and after the Battle of Guandu.

After the war, even the military generals who had betrayed him before were not to blame.

Even the letters that he found to communicate with the Yuan family were burned, and he didn't want to know who was secretly communicating with Yuan Shao behind his back.

However, Cao Cao's generosity is generosity, and this is indeed one of the most critical moments in his life.

His brows furrowed into a pimple, and he took out two letters from his arms and said: "This is a secret report sent by Ang'er, Jiangdong Sun Ce wants to send troops to Xu Du to rob the Son of Heaven, how do you think you should resist it?" ”

The sound of gasping air in the big tent came and went, and there was inevitably a lot of discussion.

"Yuan Shao in the north hasn't thought about how to defend himself, Sun Ce is actually going to stab him in the back, in this way, aren't we suffering from the enemy in the back?"

"But now that our army is in the north, how can we draw up our military strength to resist Sun Ce?"

"That Sun Ce is known as the little overlord, and he led Sun Jian's old department, which can be described as full of talents, and it is not easy to deal with."

Everyone was pessimistic, which made Cao Cao also have a headache, Yuan Shao in the north couldn't deal with it, and Sun Ce came to the south, which was indeed a dilemma.

"The lord doesn't have to worry," at this time, Guo Jia suddenly stood up and said, "Sun Ce has just annexed Jiangdong and wantonly killed the wealthy clan.

Which of those wealthy families has no people who can serve the dead?

But Sun Ce was rash and not good at defense, although he had a lot of military generals, he was no different from a person.

If an Assassin were to ambush him, he would be a one-man enemy. ”

Liu Ping was in a trance when he heard these words.

In the past, he read history books, and when he read this paragraph, most of them thought that this was a gold pasting on Guo Jia's face by later generations.

After all, no matter how clever Guo Jia is, it is impossible to predict the prophet.

accurately predicted that Sun Ce would be assassinated, it was not a resource, but a metaphysics.

But now Liu Ping has personally experienced history and heard Guo Jia say those words with his own ears.

And the future development is just as Guo Jia expected, Sun Ce has just secretly reorganized the army, deployed generals, and prepared to attack Xu Du and welcome the emperor, and then he was assassinated by the three disciples of Xu Gong that he had punished at the beginning, and since then Jiangdong has entered the era of Sun Quan.

As for what Guo Jia based on such a judgment, Liu Ping does not know.

It's just that Cao Cao obviously doesn't believe in such an unbelievable judgment.

Sun Ce killed people like hemp in Jiangdong and bloodily slaughtered the local noble clans, this is not a secret, everyone in the world knows it, but to say that those wealthy assassins can kill Sun Ce, this sounds a bit mysterious.

"It's an assassin again, where are there so many clever assassins in the world," Cao Cao smiled bitterly and said: "Then Sun Ce has the courage of his father Sun Wentai, and there are many brave generals under him. ”
