Chapter 100: Mountain rain is coming
There are many kinds of friends, like-minded, and there are also people who share life and death, and are willing to throw their heads and spill blood for a friend's words, of course, including wine and meat friends.
Zhao Yun, strictly speaking, is not a friend, this meeting can be regarded as a good fate, but with Zhao Yun's personality, if he really needs help in the future, he should be able to invite Zhao Yun just by virtue of today's kindness.
Liu Yi is not very good at politics, but when he groped all the way to today, he was already beginning to learn these things intentionally or unintentionally, after today's battle in Mocheng, he has completely entered the sight of the three major princes, and it is impossible to make a fortune as muffled as in the past, and there may even be a crisis now, so Liu Yi must take precautions.
Everyone obviously can't fully understand Liu Yi's statement, but Liu Yi has been good friends with Liu Bei and Jiangdong for a while, and he knows that he is not incomprehensible and acceptable to Liu Bei's approach.
At night, there was a faint sound of sobbing in the city, it was the cry of the families of the war dead during the day, Liu Yi stood in his courtyard, looking at the moonlight in the sky, in the huge courtyard, there were only prosperous wealth and dark clouds, but he had no heart to sleep, since moving into this new home, although the courtyard has become larger, but it is not as warm and comfortable as in the previous small building.
The mother and son of the Deng family and Lu Lingqi live in the courtyard next to Liu Yi, although they are still neighbors, but the distance between the two sides is far away, when he first came to this era, Liu Yi experienced a feeling of loneliness, but at that time, he felt very fulfilling, although the environment has changed, the times have changed, but he has a system, every day is tirelessly researching, for his future, full of hope, even if he was not high in his position at that time, but his heart is very full.
Now, I have everything I thought of at that time, I have imagined something, and I even have a certain amount of power in my hands and control the livelihood of more than 20,000 people, but my heart is not as full as before.
He began to be confused about the future, he didn't know how to go in the future, the original clear and bright future, became unpredictable, he unknowingly, has begun to silently have an impact on this era, maybe it is still very small now, but it is a little bit of integration and change.
He didn't know whether such an ending was good or bad, right or wrong, and it was precisely because of this ignorance of the future that he felt lonely and a sense of helplessness that was difficult to tell others.
Mocheng spent the night uneventfully, and when Cao Ren reunited with Cao Cao, it was already early the next morning.
Liu Bei has fled to Danyang, but the troops have been defeated by Cao Cao, Cao Cao took advantage of the situation to go south, directly occupied Jiangling, cut off Liu Bei's way back, and at the same time sent people to chase and kill Liu Bei, but unfortunately, although Liu Bei's ability is not very good, but this escape kung fu is first-class, plus Zhuge Liang has set up suspicious formations several times, leading Cao's pursuers to the side, so that Liu Bei successfully escaped.
However, in Cao Cao's view, the current Liu Bei is obviously not enough to pose a threat to him anymore, the overall situation of Jingzhou has been decided, and the rest of the matter is to appease the people.
"Why is Zixiao like this?" Looking at the gray-faced and embarrassed Cao Ren under the tent, Cao Cao asked.
"The last general will be unfavorable in battle, please surrender the prime minister!" Cao Ren didn't say much, and knelt directly on the ground and said to Cao Cao.
"Lone just asked you to invite the Lord of the Ink City to come, and not to fight, why is that?" Cao Cao was a little puzzled.
Cao Ren has 2,000 elite soldiers under his command, a walled city that has just been established, with Cao Ren's ability, he should not be defeated at all, and even if he can't capture it, he shouldn't end up in such a field.
"Prime Minister, the Lord of Ink City is actually the person we want!" Thinking of Liu Yi, Cao Ren felt a little gritted his teeth, and told Cao Cao all the grievances of the past: "When I met the remnants of Lu Bu in Nanyang at the end of the year, I met the remnants of Lu Bu ......"
Cao Cao frowned when he heard this, and only after Cao Ren finished speaking did he frown and said, "Zixiao can be sure that you are talking about the same person?" ”
How did a craftsman who was driving a donkey cart around a year ago become the head of the Mo family in a year and still be able to build a strong city.
"Prime Minister Mingjian, this person is turned to ashes, and the last general will definitely be able to recognize it!" Cao Ren affirmed.
"And how did you become so embarrassed?" Cao Cao asked.
"Yesterday I went to recruit him to come to meet the prime minister, this person refused to leave the city, and the last general waved his army to attack, who knew that although the Mo City was low, there were many defenders, the bow and crossbow were quite powerful, and the range was more than 20 steps farther than the ordinary bow and arrow!" Cao Ren recalled yesterday's battle, and he was a little angry.
When Cao Cao and the other strategists heard this, their faces became solemn, and the distance of more than twenty steps was already a chasm on the battlefield.
"Originally, the last general saw that the city could not be attacked for a long time, and he did not want the soldiers to be damaged, so Ming Jin withdrew his troops, who knew that Liu Yi actually colluded with Liu Bei, so when the last general collected his troops, a group of men and horses suddenly killed from the side, killing the last general by surprise, and Mocheng also opened the city gate at this time, that Lu Bu Yu led his troops to kill, and the two joined forces, our soldiers could not resist the enemy, if it were not for the soldiers under his command to protect me desperately, I am afraid that the last general would not be able to see the prime minister again today!" Cao Ren said in the end, his mood was a little depressed, after all, he originally thought that the city could be easily breached, but in the end, he planted a big heel, which was a great shame for him.
"Prime Minister!" The strategist Cheng Yu came out and frowned: "According to Zixiao's words, that Mocheng should not be taken lightly. ”
Just the range of more than 20 steps more than the ordinary bow and crossbow, for the war, as long as the gap between the two sides is not too large, this weapon can almost determine the outcome of the war, not to mention, according to Cao Ren, the soldiers and horses in Mocheng are quite elite, if the other party is given time, it is likely to pose a great threat to the Cao army.
"What Zhong De said is good." Xun You stood up, bowed to Cao Cao and said: "Prime Minister, now that Jingxiang has been pacified, the land of Jiangxia is still in Liu Qi's hands, and Liu Bei is now fleeing to Jiangxia, it is better to take this opportunity to wave the army eastward, set foot in Mocheng in one fell swoop, and take advantage of the situation to sweep Jiangxia, then the land of Jingxiang can be determined." ”
Hearing this, Cao Cao nodded silently and said, "Cao Ren! Lejin! ”
"The last general!" When the two generals heard this, they all lined up and bowed.
"Order the two of you to lead 10,000 troops to attack Mocheng, as for that Liu Yi, capture him alive, don't hurt his life!" Cao Cao said in a deep voice.
"Whoa!"
"Prime Minister!" The two were about to leave, but they saw a general in the tent striding out, and said to Cao Cao: "In this battle, I hope the prime minister will allow the last general to go!" ”
