Chapter 709: Martyrdom

The news that came back one after another showed that Cao Yan fought quite well in the position of the broken rear, because he made full use of the terrain and terrain, and blocked several times the enemy army from advancing outside the mountain pass, which won a lot of time for the evacuation of the brigade.

Cao Liang did not rest here, he personally commanded the Chinese army team to escort the family to live at the Xiaopingjin ferry, and ensured that the team was as neat and orderly as possible, so as to ensure that the team passed through the bottleneck of the Yellow River at the fastest speed.

However, due to the sudden rebellion of Gao Jun and Xun Hong, the situation suddenly took a sharp turn for the worse, and Cao Yan was besieged by Sima Jun, and the situation became very critical.

Cao Liang was shocked, and hurriedly ordered to organize people and horses, preparing to personally lead his troops to rescue Cao Yan.

But unexpectedly, Liu Jing suddenly stopped him, and said sadly: "Major General, General Cao has explained in advance that no matter what happens, we are not allowed to bring troops back to help, and at the same time, we are also ordered to stop the young general, and we must not let you go back to die!" ”

Cao Liang's face was full of grief and indignation, and said: "But if we don't save it, my father will definitely die!" ”

Jian Hong was also full of sadness, and said: "General Cao knows that after the break, it is nine deaths, so he asked the two of us to make a poisonous oath to ensure the safety of the young general." Now that the Sima army is huge, it is a drop in the bucket for us to go back to the rescue, not only can we not save General Cao, I am afraid that even the young general will take it in, and General Cao will die in vain. ”

Cao Liang shouted: "No! If I want to watch my father die and do nothing, I can't do it! ”

Liu Jing said: "Young General, General Cao still has a word to explain, he wants the young general not to forget the entrustment of the first emperor, eradicate the rebellion, and the heavy responsibility of Kuang Fu Sheji, all of which will be handed over to you, I hope you will live up to your mission and do your best for Cao Wei's Jiangshan Sheji!" ”

Cao Liang was stunned, he didn't expect his father to reach the most critical moment, and his heart was still thinking about the secret edict of the first emperor, in order to restore the great cause of the society, he could not even want his own life.

Cao Liang suddenly burst into tears......

The remnant sun was like blood, and the entire valley was shrouded in this piece of blood.

After a day of fierce fighting, Cao Yanren was sleepy and tired, covered in blood, both the blood of the enemy and his own blood, which almost made him a bloody man, and under the blood-red sunset, it looked even more hideous and terrifying.

The bright silver spear in his hand was even more like being soaked in blood, only the sharp tip of the spear was not stained with blood, revealing a miserable white color, and the cold glow flickered.

The Sima soldiers who died under this bright silver gun today can't be counted, anyway, Cao Yan's side is full of corpses.

The wound on his forehead, constantly dripping with blood, dripped down the eyelids, and somewhat obstructed his vision. Cao Yan looked at the setting sun, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, after several hours of fierce battles, almost all the horses and horses in the broken Xiao Cavalry Battalion were exhausted, but it was all worth it, at least the large army had almost crossed the river safely.

After the break, it was originally a very dangerous errand, basically nine deaths, Cao Yan knew the danger, and still did not hesitate, because he knew that this task had to be done by someone, and if he retreated, then Cao Liang would stand up bravely.

This is a life-and-death decision-making problem, Cao Yan knows that between their father and son, one must make a sacrifice, so can he sit back and watch his son die? Of course not!

Putting aside the emotional factor, Cao Yan knows that Cao Liang is stronger than himself in all aspects, and the great task of Kuang Fu Sheji is inseparable from Cao Liang, in order to complete the entrustment of the first emperor, Cao Yan must protect his son.

Cao Yan's eyes fell on the top of the mountain, and there were no reinforcements in that direction, which means that Liu Jing and Lianhong faithfully carried out their orders and prevented Cao Liang from coming to the rescue.

Knowing the son is not as good as the father, otherwise, with Cao Liang's character, he will definitely come to the rescue at any cost, look at the Sima soldiers who are like ants and locusts on all sides, how many people Cao Liang brings to him is also for nothing, he can only ensure safety if he flies away and returns to Bingzhou, once he returns, he is afraid that both of them and his father and son will die at the foot of this Beibi Mountain.

Cao Liang did not appear, Cao Yan was very relieved, as long as Cao Liang lived, the conspiracy of the Sima family to usurp the throne would not succeed, and the Jiangshan Sheji of the Great Wei Dynasty would still be saved, as a father, this was also the last strength he dedicated.

Cao Yan looked at Gao Jun and Xun Hong not far away, the two of them had already been shocked by Cao Yan's bravery, they had followed Cao Yan for many years, and they had never seen Cao Yan's hands, and today's Cao Yan's performance of killing all sides completely subverted their three views, so that they didn't even dare to lean forward, for fear that the angry Cao Yan would shoot them and kill them.

Cao Yan looked at the two who were cowering, sneered, and said: "That's it, you two have followed me for many years, and today I will give you two of you a certain head, and take it to ask your master for a reward!" ”

Gao Jun and Xun Hong were already frightened, although Cao Yan said that he would give him his head, but he didn't dare to go forward to get them if he borrowed ten of them, in their hearts, they thought that Cao Yan had already hated them to the bone, as long as they dared to come forward, they were afraid that the bright silver spear stained with blood would pierce a few more transparent holes in their bodies.

Seeing that the two of them didn't even have the courage to step forward, Cao Yan showed disdain on his face, and sneered: "My Cao Yan's subordinates, there are people like you who are greedy for life and afraid of death, it really tarnishes my reputation as a tiger and leopard rider!" ”

A sergeant drew his bow and wanted to shoot, and Sima Shi shouted: "Don't let go of your arrows, catch them alive!" ”

In Sima Shi's view, the value of the dead Cao Yan and the living Cao Yan is completely different, if Cao Yan dies, it can only make Cao Liang even more resentful, and if he can capture Cao Yan alive, he can use him as a bargaining chip to blackmail Cao Liang.

Cao Yan glanced at Sima Shi contemptuously, he didn't know what calculations Sima Shi had, and how Cao Yan could make him happy, Cao Yan sneered at Sima Shi: "The Cao family only has heroes who stand and die, and there are no bent knees. ”

After saying that, Cao Yan plunged the bright silver spear straight into the ground, raised his hand and pulled out the saber at his waist, crossed it around his neck, and said loudly to the north: "Cao Liang, my son, go for my father, and the rest depends on you!" ”

Then, he resolutely wiped his sword, and his blood spilled into the sunset.

The few dozen remaining knights of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion also cut themselves at the same time, and lay their bodies around Cao Yan.

The fighting stopped abruptly, and the whole valley fell into a deathly silence, the mountain wind was cold, and the remnant sun was like blood. Take a hundred plating to read the latest chapter of "The Last Three Kingdoms 2: Xingwei Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
