Chapter 1383: Crazy Counterattack
But said that before, Cao Zhen led troops to resist Zhu Ran's soldiers and horses, and Zhu Ran and Lu Dai rushed forward and killed Cao Zhen. Cao Zhen led the crowd to resist, how could Zhu Ran and Lu Dai fight desperately, and the soldiers and horses under his command, each of them went down to the mountain and killed fiercely, and the spirit was extremely strong. Cao Zhen couldn't resist and took advantage of the chaos to escape. As soon as Cao Zhen fled, the Wei soldiers immediately scattered like a tree and fled in all directions. Zhu Ran didn't care about chasing and killing the remnants, and immediately ordered the sergeant to set fire to the place where the food was stored. A group of Wu soldiers received the order and rushed to it one after another. After a while, the fire broke out, and the baggage in the grain storage place was half burning, and the flames soared to the sky. Wu Bing raised his weapon, raised his arms and shouted, and raised his head to the sky and roared. On Zhu Ran's blood-covered face, a smile of joy appeared and he muttered.
"It's worthy of us waiting day and night, fighting for our lives, Dongwu will be saved in the end!!"
When Lu Dai saw the red fire, he actually left an excited man in tears, and shouted loudly.
"Wei Kou's baggage is completely ruined, and the army will be withdrawn soon, brothers, our country can be protected, and the family will be safe!!"
When the Wu soldiers heard it, they hissed and echoed, and the momentum was earth-shattering, full of excitement and joy. At this moment, suddenly, a wave of shouts and killings arose. I saw that countless Wei soldiers rushed in front of the village, Cao Cao rode a stunning BMW, hurried over, saw the place where the grain was stored, a raging fire, frightened, and hurriedly drank.
"Quick!! Quickly put out the fire!! β
As soon as Cao Cao gave the order, a group of Wei soldiers rushed to the front, and even the soldiers of the Tiger Guard, who were responsible for guarding Cao Cao's safety, rushed away. Zhu Ran saw that the Wei soldiers were surging and were eager to come to the rescue, his face suddenly changed, and he saw that there were still many baggage that had not been burned out, so he hurriedly taught the sergeants to step up arson, while Zhu Ran and Lu Dai led the remaining soldiers and horses to resist together. It was said that it was fast at that time, and the Wei soldiers who were like a flood tide, in order to protect their baggage, each rushed over frantically. Zhu Ran and Lu Dai each danced weapons to lead the troops into the chaotic army, stirring up a mess of chaos. However, the Wei soldiers were overwhelming, and Zhu Ran's army couldn't resist it, and many people broke through one after another. Zhu Ran was in a hurry, and suddenly saw Cao Cao, who was wearing a black and gold dragon pattern armor in the chaotic army, his face was shocked, he pointed to the spear from afar, and shouted with Lu Dai.
"Dinggong, the old thief Cao is there, you and I will capture him together!" In this way, the overall situation can be determined!! β
When Lu Dai heard this, his eyes lit up, and he shouted loudly, so he clashed with Zhu Ran and killed. The two of them suddenly attacked, and the momentum was like a tide, and the Wei soldiers couldn't resist it, and they were killed so that they turned on their backs. Cao Cao suddenly felt that his whole body trembled, and he saw a big chaos in front of him, and saw Zhu Ran and Lu Dai killing the two young generals at the shouting of killing, and suddenly his face changed drastically, and he was eager to teach the tiger guards to resist, but he suddenly woke up to the tiger guards who had already gone to the village to put out the fire under his order. Cao Cao's heart tightened, he shook his spirits, suddenly pulled out the sword of Yitian, and shouted loudly.
"All the armies listen to the order, quickly capture these two villains for me!" I'm rewarded!! β
As soon as Cao Cao's order came out, the surrounding Wei soldiers immediately rushed away, although a group of soldiers were not as elite as the Tiger Guard, but there must be brave men under the so-called heavy reward, everyone wanted to show their ability in front of Cao Cao, make meritorious achievements, scramble, desperately fight. Zhu Ran and Lu Dai were stopped by the crowd of people who swarmed from all around, and they danced their weapons, regardless of life and death, and bravely killed them. Cao Cao shot out a series of fine lights, and hurriedly stopped several soldiers who were about to go, and taught them to attack with cold arrows. The Wei generals took the order, dispersed, pulled the bow and pulled the string, and with the sound of several bowstrings, several sudden cold arrows shot towards Zhu Ran and Lu Dai coldly from all directions. Zhu Ran was killing suddenly, and suddenly heard a loud noise, and hurriedly pulled his gun to shoot. One cold arrow broke in response, but the other couldn't be hit. The blood light suddenly appeared, and an arrow hit Zhu Ran's right shoulder. Zhu Ran screamed miserably and almost fell off the horse. Lu Dai was shocked, and hurriedly rushed to protect Zhu Ran to kill the assault. When the lieutenant generals of Zhu Ran's army saw that Zhu Ran was hit by an arrow, their faces were in a hurry, and they led troops to respond. Cao Cao saw that it was the right time, and quickly taught the armies to cover up and kill. The Wei soldiers rushed forward, and Zhu Ran's army couldn't resist it, and it seemed that they were about to collapse. At the same time, in the Wei army village, as the Tiger Guard and a group of Wei soldiers arrived, the Wu soldiers fled one after another. The fire gradually weakened as the Tiger Guards and the sergeants extinguished it. Seeing that the situation was gradually stabilizing, Cao Cao exhaled a breath of air, and his turbulent heart calmed down a little.
Suddenly, the shouting of killing behind him shook the sky, Cao Cao looked over urgently, and saw that the army and horses were in groups, in groups of three or five, under the rush of a team of Wu soldiers, fleeing in embarrassment. Cao Cao was shocked, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers and horses of the rear army to resist, and led a group of soldiers and horses to clash ahead. Fortunately, Zhu Ran's army had been killed and retreated, and he fled to the east, Cao Cao hurried back to the camp and hurriedly commanded all the troops and horses to fight.
After a while, the shouts of killing became louder and louder, and Lu Meng led his troops to break through. Cao Cao immediately taught the crossbowmen and went to the trench in front of the village, but when he saw the Wu soldiers coming, he immediately shot. Suddenly, the crossbow resounded, and the sound was endless. Under the cover of the crossbowmen, the Wei soldiers fled back to the camp one after another. Sima Shi fled at the end, seeing that the situation in the village was gradually stabilizing, his heart was shocked, and he suddenly turned his horse around and faced Lu Meng, who was killed by the sudden horse. Lu Meng roared loudly, and the spear in his hand stabbed out like a shocking lightning. Sima Shi hurriedly dodged, danced a giant hammer, and smashed it at Lu Meng's head. Lu Meng lowered his body, and Sima Shi smashed it into the air with a hammer. LΓΌ Meng rushed through on horseback, but abandoned Sima Shi and looked forward to kill him. Sima Shi was in a hurry, and was about to rein in his horse to chase after him, when countless Wu soldiers surrounded him. Sima Shi had no choice but to dance the sledgehammer to fight. On the other side, LΓΌ Meng rushed past Sima Shi and looked at the Wei army to kill him. The crossbowmen in the trench, seeing that it was Lu Meng, hurriedly fired arrows indiscriminately. LΓΌ Meng pulled his gun to resist, and he was extremely brave, and all the troops of Wu followed one after another. Seeing this, Cao Cao hurriedly instructed the Tiger Guards to move forward, and the Tiger Guards responded sharply, and each of them rushed forward with their weapons. Between the lightning and flint, Lu Meng rode his horse to kill, and the soldiers of the Tiger Guard, the big sword was like a reed, rising and falling suddenly, and there was a great tendency to move forward. Rao is Lu Meng, who is also outnumbered, and is killed and retreated. The crossbowmen in the trench were demoralized, and arrows burst out, and the Wu soldiers were shot so that people turned over on their backs, screaming endlessly.
Sun Quan rushed over on horseback, his blue eyes shimmered, seeing that the battle was so fierce that it was difficult for his own army to take well, and the pupils in his eyes couldn't help shrinking suddenly. At this time, Gu Yong rode his horse and hurriedly admonished Sun Quan.
"Your Majesty!! Wei Kou has stabilized his position, and he is defending the fortress, and if our army wants to fight with it, I am afraid that both sides will be defeated. I saw just in time that the fire in the Wei army village was flourishing, and there must be changes. Why don't you withdraw your army for the time being to see what happens!! β
When Sun Quan heard this, he was overjoyed, raised his eyebrows, and groaned.
"Could it be Lu Boyan's transfer!?"
can attack the Wei army Jiuzhai unknowingly, and even set fire to it, except for Lu Xun's soldiers and horses, there is no other. Sun Quan's mind was racing, and he had already made up his mind in his heart, his blue eyes were shining, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile. As a result, Sun Quan ordered the withdrawal of the army. As soon as the order was given, the generals hurriedly sent a notification, and the soldiers and horses in the rear of the Wu army slowly withdrew. LΓΌ Meng, who was fighting in front of the Wei army's village, heard the order, and did not love to fight, so he quickly pulled out his horse and turned around, leading the army to retreat. Cao Cao saw the Wu soldiers retreating, and let out a long breath, and the rest of the soldiers all had palpitations for the rest of their lives. Compared with the dusk, the sunset in the West Mountain, the heaven and the earth are sometimes dim, sometimes but it seems to be dyed with a little blood red, the road from Jiuzhai of the Wei Army to Wu County, the corpses are all over the field, it is thrilling to see, and no one can see it.
In the tiger tent of Wei Zhai, Cao Cao sat in the high hall, his face was dark, his face was tense, and his whole body seemed to contain surging anger. The soldiers counted the losses and came to report them one after another. In today's battle, Cao Cao's 50,000 troops lost nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses, and most of his baggage was burned. Fortunately, Cao Zhen ordered the soldiers to move away a lot of baggage, and now the food in the tent can last for half a month. Rao is like this, but the generals in the tent still have worried faces, and they don't dare to look directly at Cao Cao's gaze. Suddenly, Cao Cao grinned, as if nothing had happened, and smiled as if it didn't matter.
"Haha! Lu Boyan and Zhuge Kongming are worthy of being geniuses in the sky, and the two of them have joined forces, and it is really extraordinary!! I am not unjustly defeated this time, I am not unjustly defeated!! I don't know how Zhang Junyi and Sima Zhongda are clearly guarding the important places in Dongfu, how did Lu Boyan and Zhuge Kongming hide from the sky and cross the sea, and secretly Chen Cang!? β
As soon as Cao Cao's words fell, Cao Zhen was in a hurry to attend and surrender his hand.
"Returning to Your Majesty, the last general will take the order, look at the direction of Zhu Yifeng's soldiers and horses, go to investigate, and find that within ten miles of the northeast, there is a valley road trail that is extremely hidden. If the end general is correct, Zhu Yifeng Moyo is here to come!! β
Cao Cao's fine eyes lit up suddenly, and his jaw answered.
"In this case, Zidan, you quickly send a group of soldiers and horses to the dark outpost, if there are any more soldiers and horses coming out from here, come and report immediately!!"
Cao Zhen was shocked and promised his hand. Sima Shi's face sank, and he suddenly asked Cao Cao.
"Now there is not much baggage in the army, it is difficult to continue for a long time, and our army has been defeated, and its spirit has been greatly defeated. In His Majesty's opinion, what should I do? β
As soon as Sima Shi's words came out, all the generals turned their faces tightened, and they all looked at Cao Cao in the middle of everyone's worries. When Cao Cao heard this, his face sank, and his eyes seemed to glow, if he could see through people's hearts, he looked around at the generals, and asked in a condensed voice.
"I haven't made a resolution yet, I don't know what your opinions are, so you might as well say it directly."
Cao Cao didn't see any joy or anger on his face, his tone was calm, and he said lightly. In addition to Cao Zhen and Sima Shi in the tent, the generals and other generals were stunned when they heard it, looked at each other, and then attended one after another, saying in unison.
"At this time, the situation of our army is unfavorable, the war is unsustainable, and our army has penetrated deep into the hinterland of Eastern Wu. We think that Your Majesty should make peace with Soochow first, and wait for the opportunity!! β
When Cao Cao heard this, his face suddenly sank, his eyes were cold, and the inside of the tent seemed to be frozen three feet in an instant! A soldier, his heart trembled, and he hurriedly said.
"We are deeply favored by the imperial court, and we have no regrets about dying on the battlefield. But Your Majesty is the Lord of the world, and there must be no loss. Your Majesty should focus on the overall situation!! β
"Oh? Do you want to make peace with Soochow? β
Cao Cao listened, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and then looked at the generals one by one. Sima Shi frowned, and was about to speak. At this time, Cao Zhen secretly glanced at Sima Shi, signaling that he should not say much, and His Majesty had his own calculations. Sima Shi understood, so he didn't say much. I only heard the rest of the soldiers reply in unison, and they all said that they should make peace with Dongwu. Suddenly, Cao Cao laughed, laughing so that all the soldiers felt chills in their hearts, and hurriedly knelt down to confess. Suddenly, Cao Cao's laughter stopped, and he said in a condensed voice.
"What you have said is exactly what I want."
As soon as Cao Cao's words came out, Sima Shi and Cao Zhen's faces suddenly changed greatly, and their faces were surprised and dazed. Cao Cao consumed national strength in order to conquer Eastern Wu, and now if he wants to make peace with Eastern Wu, wouldn't this be a waste of his previous efforts! With Cao Cao's heroic temperament, he will never give up easily before he reaches the extreme. However, when the rest of the soldiers heard this, they were all overjoyed. Cao Cao's eyes were blazing, as if glowing, and suddenly his eyes turned and he said to Cao Zhen.
"The Great Wei and the Eastern Wu fought repeatedly, and all sides suffered losses, countless casualties, and sinister friendships. If you send idle people, you can't see my sincerity. Zidan, you are my adopted son, and it is most suitable to send you as an envoy. Would you like to!? β
Cao Zhen's expression froze, and he almost didn't hesitate to give up.
"Your Majesty's imperial grace is mighty, and it is incumbent on you to go to the soup even if you go to the soup and fire!!"
Cao Zhen's departure can be described as nine deaths. As Cao Cao said, Eastern Wu and Great Wei are like fire and water, and they are incompatible. If Sun Quan is unwilling to accept it, it is very likely that Cao Zhen will be killed as a sacrificial flag to boost the morale of the three armies. It can be known that Sun Quan killed the Wei envoy not long ago. As soon as Cao Zhen's words came out, all the generals were secretly happy. Cao Cao's face was dignified, and he saw everyone's expressions in his eyes, so he took pen, ink, paper, and inkstone and immediately repaired two letters, one of which was handed over to Cao Zhen, and taught him to go to Wu County to see Sun Quan the next day. Then one letter was handed over to Sima Shi and taught to hand it over to Jia Xu to prepare for the withdrawal of the army. Cao Zhen and Sima Shi received orders one after another.
Let's say that Sima Shi went first that night, led dozens of riders to Jia Xu's camp. Jia Xu hurriedly summoned in, and Sima Shi finished his salute. Jia Xu's eyes lit up, but he didn't feel disgusted by Sima Shi's ugly face, but smiled.
"You are the son of Sima Zhongda, Sima Ziyuanye!?"
"Returning to Taifu, so-and-so is exact."
For this famous poisoner, Sima Shi did not dare to be presumptuous in the slightest, and hurriedly bowed his hand in response. Jia Xu saw that although Sima Shi was born strangely ugly, he did not have the slightest contempt.
