The north wind is biting, the snow is flying, in the cold season of deep winter, inside and outside the county, everything on the earth is covered by snow, standing on the city wall, even if he is wearing a thick robe, he still can't resist the cold wind, but Cao Cao is motionless, standing straight, in the dense forest in the distance, hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers are hiding in the wind and snow to starve, the horn of the counterattack is about to sound, the goddess of victory, is beckoning to Cao Cao.

Since the death of Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei, Cao Cao followed Guo Jia's advice, deep ditches and high fortifications, stuck to the city defense, and no longer took the initiative to attack, but blocked the Yellow Turban Army from the city.

These hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turbans originally did not carry excess grain and grass, but only knew that they were looting everywhere, and once the towns were held by Cao Cao, the Yellow Turban Army was in a predicament.

At first, they gathered heavy troops, desperately snatched the city, relying on the strength of the crowd, the offensive was like a tide, Cao Cao gritted his teeth and held on, the soldiers under his command all played well, and Lu Bu also assisted from the side.

After blocking the Yellow Turban Army's ferocious 'three-plate axe', one side and the other, the supply of grain and grass was delayed, and the weather became colder and colder, the Yellow Turban Army could not eat, could not wear warm, endured hunger and cold, the situation became more and more miserable, and the fighting spirit and military spirit gradually collapsed and collapsed.

"Lord, the snow is too heavy, you better go into the city to avoid the wind and snow."

Dian Wei, who was standing behind Cao Cao, couldn't help but persuade him humbly.

"Dian Wei, don't get in the way, this wind and snow, it's best to be more violent, this is my Cao Mengde's heavenly divine soldier, a wind and snow is enough to be worth 100,000 elite soldiers!"

Cao Cao was full of pride, his domineering body was exposed, and his amazing momentum was amazing, and even the not very tall figure suddenly became much taller and more majestic.

Dian Wei scratched his scalp, listened to the clouds and mountains and fog, looked up at the seemingly endless wind and snow, Dian Wei shook his head, he really couldn't understand, isn't it just a heavy snow, how can it be worth 100,000 elite soldiers.

"Pass my order, prepare more wine and meat at noon, and when the wine and meat are ready, the old man will enjoy the snow outside the city and drink bitterly."

"No!"

The herald said yes and hurried away.

Outside the city of Qiaoxian, there is also an urn city, which is equivalent to the outer city of Qiaoxian County, after the wine and food are ready, Cao Cao took hundreds of soldiers on the snow of the city of Wengcheng, ordered people to put down the wine and food, and set up more than a dozen cauldrons on the side, the pot stewed with game, after a while, the aroma of gluttonous meat drifted far away with the wind.

The Yellow Turban Army hidden in the jungle in the distance, hungry and cold, suddenly became restless, many people were ready to move, and the gluttonous insects in their hearts were particularly active, and the leader of the lead learned that Cao Cao had only a few hundred personal soldiers around him, and he was immediately bold.

"Brothers, if you want to eat meat and drink wine, come with me!"

The leader raised his arms and shouted, hulala, and then rushed out of the 20,000 Yellow Turban Army, all hungry like wolves, whining and rushing towards the urn city, Cao Cao pretended to be panicked, and hurriedly resisted for a while and led people to retreat into the inner city.

The Yellow Turbans were all like mad dogs, rushing forward, grabbing the wine and meat scattered on the ground and stuffing it into their mouths, and more people surrounded the dozen cauldrons, all of them did not look like mad dogs and wolves, and even forgot that this was under the enemy's city.

Just when everyone was eating, the gate of Qiaoxian City was opened, and five thousand Cao soldiers were suddenly killed from inside, led by the generals Xiahoudun and Dian Wei.

"Kill!"

Xiahoudun raised the knife in his hand, shouted, and urged the horse to go straight to the thief to kill the past, these Yellow Turban soldiers suddenly made a mess, and at the moment of life and death, many people were still reluctant to drop the wine and meat in their hands.

When the Cao soldiers were close to the front and back, many of the Yellow Turban soldiers did not have blades in their hands, and even foolishly waved their flesh and bones to resist.

The yellow turban in the woods in the distance was jealous and resentful, and no one came to the rescue, but many people felt that these people deserved it and were to blame.

These 5,000 elite soldiers are all the Cao soldiers in the city of Qiao, but at this moment, the Yellow Turban soldiers who were killed turned on their backs, panicked like lost dogs, and many Yellow Turban soldiers who had eaten wine and meat just fought each other, and suddenly they were powerless and the Venus in front of them was chaotic, and the combat power can be imagined.

After the first battle, Xiahoudun won a complete victory, killing more than 10,000 enemies, and the rest either fled or died of foaming at the mouth.

"Hehe..."

Cao Cao stood on the city tower, crying and laughing, "Such an obvious trap, they will all be fooled, it can be seen that these yellow scarves have lost the minimum vigilance, for them, filling their stomachs is more important than anything else!" ”

In other words, these yellow scarves only have animal instincts left on their bodies, and even if they know that there are traps, they can't take care of them under hunger and cold.

In the wine and meat just now, Cao Cao was not polite at all, and put a lot of poison, especially the dozen or so cauldrons, Cao Bing didn't move at all.

"Newspaper..."

Suddenly, galloping in the distance, a messenger came on horseback, after opening the city gate, after a while, the messenger came to Cao Cao, took the letter, Cao Cao read it on the spot, Xun Yu first reported the good news, told Cao Cao that Emperor Xiandi had successfully received the East County, urging Cao Cao to return to the East County immediately to welcome the Son of Heaven.

Guo Jia, on the other hand, told Cao Cao not to return to Dongjun.

"This..."

Cao Cao was stunned at first, the letters of the two were completely different, Xun Yu's meaning was also Cao Cao's meaning, since Emperor Xian was received to Dongjun, he should naturally go back immediately, no matter how big the matter is, can it be bigger than the Son of Heaven?

However, although Guo Jia's letter is strange, Cao Cao believes that there must be a deep meaning, and Guo Jia will never do it for no reason, so he is too lazy to contradict Xun Yu.

Putting the letter away, Cao Cao pondered for a while, and when he thought of the chaotic situation in Luoyang, Cao Cao's fierce eyes lit up.

"By the way, this matter must be related to Liu Bei!"

………………

Li Ru received Lu Zhuo's order and immediately sent several capable killers to Linzi.

Soon, these people arrived in Linzi, Zhuge Jin saw these people, and conveyed Lu Zhuo's order, let these people pretend to be yellow scarves, stab Jiaohe, only need to fail, do not need to succeed, if they are captured, they must not reveal the truth!

"Don't worry, my lord, we have long put life and death out of the matter, and for the sake of the lord's hegemony, we will die without regrets!"

"Okay, let's go!"

Zhuge Jin waved his hand, and these killers quickly disappeared into the night.

Lu Zhuo stayed in Linzi for two days, and the wizard received a lot of gold and silver treasures from Lu Zhuo, and when he saw Lu Zhuo, it was like seeing the God of Wealth, and he really said a lot of good things for Lu Zhuo in front of Jiao He.

The wizard repeatedly warned Jiao He that Lu Zhuo was his nobleman, who could help him protect the territory and the people, and clear the thieves in the territory.

Jiao He was overjoyed when he heard this, so he repeatedly retained Lu Zhuo, and Lu Zhuo was not polite, but on the night of the second day, Jiao He encountered an assassination.

Jiao He didn't know that the assassin was the assassin who was brought into the Assassin's Mansion with Lu Zhuo.
