Chapter 9: Escape
Cao Shuo and two guards escorted Cao Cao all the way.
They also met some Zhang Xiujun along the way.
Because they were wearing enemy armor, most of the Zhang Xiujun they met passed by them, and occasionally two teams came forward to talk, just to ask if they had found Cao Cao's whereabouts, and under Cao Shuo's answer, they did not have any suspicions.
Every time he met the enemy, Cao Shuo could answer like a stream, although Cao Cao did not speak, he could see from his expression that he was very appreciative of him from the bottom of his heart.
is getting farther and farther away from Wancheng, and there are fewer and fewer Zhang Xiujun along the way.
Away from danger, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Cao Cao asked Cao Shuo: "Zhang Xiu rebelled, Wancheng must be heavily defended, how did you escape?" ”
escorted Cao Cao to escape, and on the way, Cao Shuo did not mention the process of his escape from Wancheng.
It wasn't until Cao Cao asked that he said: "Zhang Xiu really planned to kill me first, but fortunately he sent a lot of people to chase and intercept me, otherwise it would not be easy to escape from the city." ”
Looking at him in surprise, Cao Cao asked, "There are many people chasing and intercepting him, but it is easy to escape?" ”
Cao Shuo said: "If it weren't for the large number of people he sent, where would the children get their clothes and armor?" Without this skin, if you want to escape from Wancheng, it is as difficult as the sky. ”
Cao Shuo has been in weak health since he was a child, and before coming to Wancheng, he never even left Mrs. Bian half a step.
Faced with such a predicament for the first time, he not only did not mess up, but also successfully broke away from Wancheng, and even rescued Cao Cao halfway.
After staring at Cao Shuo for a moment, Cao Cao didn't say anything more.
The crowd moved on.
Cao Shuo said: "Father, there is something I don't know whether to say or not. ”
"You say!"
"Before I met my father, I met my eldest brother." Cao Shuo said.
"Where is he?" Speaking of Cao Ang, Cao Cao's eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked.
Cao Shuo lowered his head and said to Cao Cao: "Eldest brother intercepted the thief army, I didn't see it was him in the rear." When it was found out to be him, the eldest brother had already been killed in battle. ”
Receiving the news of Cao Ang's death, Cao Cao was stunned.
Although he didn't speak, his eyes glistened with tears.
"Father's Day condolences." Cao Shuo said: "When I return to the army, I am willing to lead the troops back to Wancheng to avenge my eldest brother!" ”
Cao Cao waved his hand, forcibly suppressing the grief of losing his beloved son: "Our army has just been defeated, and the morale of the three armies is not high, even if we kill it back, we won't be able to take much advantage." ”
"Do you want to let the eldest brother die in vain?" Cao Shuo asked.
He didn't have any feelings for Cao Ang, but he knew that Cao Cao was a loving person.
took the initiative to lead the troops back to Wancheng to avenge Cao Ang, and showed that he attached importance to brotherhood in front of Cao Cao, which would also have more benefits for him in the future.
"You're weak." Cao Cao said: "When I return to the army, I have to recuperate, and it is a matter of time before I crusade against Zhang Xiu, but not now." ”
On the way to escape Wancheng, Cao Shuo already felt the limitations brought to him by his physical weakness.
If it weren't for the killing skills he learned in the army, with his small body, he would not be able to defeat even an ordinary soldier in a head-on confrontation with people.
Survive in troubled times, you can't go on like this!
A few people were walking, and a group of people appeared in front of them.
There were only a few dozen people coming on.
They were all cavalry, and they were dressed in Cao army armor.
Seeing this group, Cao Shuo instructed the guards: "Pick up the white cloth and tell them that their father is here!" ”
The group that rushed over saw them, too.
The Cao army on horseback stretched out their bows and arrows one after another.
One of the guards who followed behind Cao Shuo tore off a white cloth from his clothes and waved it towards the Cao army.
The guards galloped away, and all the arrows of Cao Jun were pointed at him.
"Don't let go of the arrows!" Waving a white cloth, the guard shouted, "Cao Gong is here!" ”
Hearing that Cao Cao was here, the Cao army looked at the general who led the team.
The general raised his hand, and Cao Jun lowered his longbow one after another.
Standing behind Cao Cao, Cao Shuo saw the guards turn around and point to them.
Soon General Cao, who led the team, led several soldiers to gallop over, while the others waited in place.
When he was about to get to him, the general recognized Cao Cao and hurriedly jumped off his horse and galloped.
Seeing this general, Cao Cao smiled slightly and asked, "Man Cheng, are the soldiers okay?" ”
The general who flew over was not as burly as Dian Wei, and there was a hint of bookishness between his eyebrows.
He is none other than Li Dian, who followed Cao Cao and Chen when he recruited troops.
After making a big salute, Li Dian said: "The end will be late, and Cao Gong will suffer!" ”
"Fortunately, there is Shuo'er, otherwise I would have been killed by gangsters." Cao Cao said.
Arching his hand to Cao Shuo first, Li Dian said: "Hard work second son! ”
Cao Shuo replied: "Born as a son, it is natural to protect my father, and I dare not say that it is hard!" ”
Li Dian and Cao Shuo saluted, and Cao Cao asked, "How are the soldiers of the three armies?" ”
Li Dian said: "Zhang Xiu suddenly attacked, and the soldiers were disrupted. I and several generals gathered for a long time, and there were only more than 2,000 people. ”
"It's all my fault for this failure." Cao Cao sighed: "If it weren't for my covetousness of the Zou family, I wouldn't have caused these troubles!" ”
"Cao Gong doesn't have to blame himself." Li Dian said: "Zhang Xiu originally had the intention of rebellion, even if Cao Gong didn't do anything, he would definitely rebel!" ”
What Li Dian said was nothing more than to explain Cao Cao.
Of course Cao Cao knew.
He didn't say much about this matter, and asked Li Dian, "Where are the soldiers stationed?" ”
"It's not far ahead." Turning his head and pointing, Li Dian said: "If we don't see Cao Gong, we don't dare to withdraw easily." ”
"This is not the place to talk, let's talk about it when we go back to the barracks." Cao Cao waved his hand.
Li Dian and Cao Shuo flanked Cao Cao, while the others surrounded them and marched in the direction of the barracks.
However, after walking six or seven miles, Cao Shuo saw a military camp appear in front of him.
Compared with the camp that Cao Cao set up outside Wancheng, this military camp is much smaller.
Cao's army experienced a major defeat, the morale of the three armies was not high, and the barracks looked a little lifeless.
"Cao Gong is back!" There was still some distance from the barracks, and a Cao army galloped out, shouting loudly while galloping on his horse.
The lifeless barracks immediately boiled.
Many Cao troops ran out of the camp tents, and the generals greeted them out of the camp and saluted Cao Cao one after another.
Cao Cao greeted the generals first, and then said to Cao Shuo: "You are also tired, go back to the camp to rest first, I will call you if there is something!" ”
"Father has also walked very hard, don't be too tired!" Cao Shuo said.
Cao Cao nodded.
Entering the barracks, the generals surrounded Cao Cao and left, while Cao Shuo took two guards and prepared a tent for him under the guidance of an officer.
Outside the tent, the two guards were about to say goodbye and leave, when Cao Shuo asked, "Are there any stonemasons and carpenters in the army?" ”
"What are Childe looking for stonemasons and carpenters for?" One of them asked.
