Su Zhe looked down at Zang Ba and was silent for a long time, staring at him with his eyes, as if he wanted to see through the heart of the person who was about to surrender in front of him.

Zang Ba in history, since he returned to Cao Cao, has been extremely loyal, not only has he not betrayed again, but he has also made great contributions to Cao Cao's expedition to the east and west.

And now, soon after he surrendered to Cao Cao, he chose to betray and came to submit to himself.

Really down? Or a swindle.

In Su Zhe's heart, he couldn't help but have speculation and doubt.

"Let's talk." Su Zhe turned around and went to the big tent.

Zang Ba also followed.

As soon as he entered the door, Zang Ba said: "The last general knows that the general is suspecting that the last general is swearing to the sky, and the last general definitely wants to surrender sincerely. ”

The oath is ruthless enough, but unfortunately Su Zhe is not the Holy Mother, and he believes him just by a few impassioned oaths.

Su Zhe smiled coldly: "The oath is the most untrustworthy thing in this world, because it doesn't cost anything, it's all a mouth, Zang Ba, let's talk about the real reason why you want to demote me." ”

Zang Ba was stunned, and looked at Su Zhe in surprise, obviously he didn't expect that Su Zhe would directly expose his true face if he didn't play according to the routine.

Zang Ba had to cough a few times, and said: "The general is really as wise as a torch, and he can't hide anything from the general, in fact, the reason why the last general is obedient to the general is because he admires the general's wisdom and martial arts, and the so-called good birds choose trees to perch, and the other reason is ......"

After hesitating for a moment, Zang Bafang said: "It's because the last general was so disappointed in Cao Cao that he was chilled by him." ”

Su Zhe was a little satisfied, and said with a flick of his hand: "Let's talk about it, how Cao Mengde has chilled your heart." ”

Zang Bafang sighed: "The general also knows that the last general has been operating in Lang for many years, especially Kaiyang City, which is the home of the last general and his brothers. ”

"But who would have thought that after Cao Cao's defeat that day, he didn't even have the slightest intention of guarding Kaiyang, so he directly abandoned the city and fled, and ordered the last general to abandon the city with him."

"The last general and his brothers have worked hard to run the home for so many years, and they were easily cut off by Cao Cao like this, how can the last general not be disheartened and disappointed by Cao Cao."

As soon as the words changed, Zang Ba arched his hand and said: "Therefore, the last general can see from this that only the general is the real hero, and the last general can only follow the general to let a group of brothers have a bright future and keep our homeland." ”

Zang Ba revealed his true purpose, which was basically similar to what Su Zhe had guessed.

Zang Ba in history was originally born in Taishan Kou, he and his subordinates are all locals of Langxi, extremely nostalgic for their homeland, since the surrender of Cao Cao, basically to help Cao Cao guard Qingxu Erzhou, never left.

Now that Kaiyang is lost, most of Langxi County is also occupied by Su Zhe, Zang Ba and his gang of Taishan Kou have suddenly become lost dogs, which is naturally extremely unbearable for them who are nostalgic for their hometown.

So in this case, in order to be able to continue to return to Kaiyang, it is not surprising that they chose to betray Cao Cao and surrender to him Su Zhe in order to continue to return to Kaiyang and become the emperor of the land in their hometown.

Seeing that Su Zhe was still hesitating, Zang Ba knelt down again and arched his hand: "The last general knows that the general is still doubting the sincerity of the last general, and the last general is willing to capture Juxian for the general and drive Cao Cao out of Xuzhou, so as to atone for his merits, showing the determination of the last general to submit to the general." ”

Su Zhe's eyes lit up.

He was still estimating that he was going to fight a protracted battle with Cao Cao, but he didn't expect that Zang Ba would be killed halfway through, and he actually said that there was a way to help him defeat Juxian.

What a surprise......

Su Zhe said: "Cao Cao has 20,000 soldiers and horses, and Juxian is also half a fortified city, how are you going to help me break Jucheng." ”

Zang Bahuan glanced left and right, afraid of having ears and eyes.

Su Zhe waved his hand and said, "All of you here are people I have trusted, even if you say it bluntly." ”

Zang Ba was relieved, so he explained his plan.

Su Zhe's eyes gradually swelled with excitement, and he patted the case: "Okay, I didn't expect you to keep such a wonderful move, if it is really true, if you can capture Juxian for me, I will appoint you as the Lang Evil Taishou, if you want to guard your hometown, I will fulfill you." ”

Zang Ba was overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed and thanked: "Thank you to the lord, the last general will do his best to go to the soup for the lord, and never give up." ”

Su Zhe nodded with satisfaction, and shouted happily: "You have all heard Zang Ba's plan, tomorrow the army will kill Benju County for me, and act according to the plan at the latest, and give me a quick break through the enemy city." ”

The generals agreed.

After resting for the night, Su Zhe led the army to set off and arrived at the city of Jucheng.

The army forced the city to go down to the wall, forming a threatening trend towards the south gate of Ju County.

The south gate of Juxian County.

Cao * stared at Su Ying, whose banner was covering the sky outside the city, his face was gloomy and his brows were tightly locked.

Behind him, Cao Hong approached and arched his hand: "My lord, we have found out where Liu Bei went, since he left Yangdu City, he went straight to Gaotang City, it seems that he wants to cross the river from Gaotang Ferry and go to Hebei." ”

"Hebei? What is this Liu Xuande doing in Hebei? Cao Renhu said suspiciously.

Guo Jia snorted coldly: "What else can he do, of course he wants to go to Hebei to join Yuan Shao." ”

Everyone suddenly realized.

Cao Ren scolded angrily: "What a big-eared thief, when he was at the end of his rope, the lord kindly took him in, but I didn't expect him to be ungrateful, and he defected to Yuan Shao when he saw that the situation was not good, it was really shameless!" ”

The generals were all angry and scolded Liu Bei for being unjust.

Guo Jia sneered and sarcastically said: "I said earlier, this Liu Bei is not only a wolf with ambitions, but also the best at judging the situation, and it is also expected for him to slip away, but I didn't expect him to run so fast, and before the Su thief's soldiers could kill our Qingzhou, he fled." ”

Bang!

Cao Cao's fist slammed into the battlements, gritted his teeth and scolded: "Liu Bei, count me Cao Cao away, thinking that you are a hero, but I didn't expect you to be such a sinister villain, I knew that this was the case, I should have rejected your defection in the first place and let you die under Su Zhe's knife!" ”

The generals were indignant, and there was another burst of angry scolding.

Cheng Yu was relieved: "Liu Bei ran away, let's run, this person is a wolf ambition, staying by our side, but it is a hidden danger, he ran away, the lord can let go of his hands and feet, and go all out to fight with the Su thief." ”

Cao Cao's expression softened a little.

At this moment, the scout hurriedly went to the city and shouted: "Lord Qiqi, that Zang Ba led three thousand soldiers and horses from his headquarters to defect to Na Su Zhe." ”

A bolt from the blue!

The generals were all stunned, and the anger that had just been subdued by Liu Bei's defection was ignited again.

For a while, the scolding in the city began again.

Cao Cao was also shocked again, hatefully scolded: "Zang Ba, Zang Ba, you are really a thief, capricious, dead and unchangeable, hateful, hateful~~"

Along the front line of the city, the news that Liu Bei fled and Zang Ba defected to Su Zhe soon spread, and for a while, Cao's soldiers and soldiers were talking about it.

Originally, after experiencing a fiasco in the previous battle, Cao Jun was unstable, and now under the blow of the defection news, people are even more panicked.

"Ahem, lord, Zang Ba is just a repeated, untrustworthy person, there is no need to be angry for him and mess up the hearts of our army!" Guo Jia coughed lightly and reminded in a low voice.

Cao Cao, who was angry, suddenly came to his senses, glanced at the soldiers who were arguing left and right, and couldn't help frowning, realizing that he had to do something to suppress the morale of the army that had been hit.

He took a deep breath and suddenly burst out laughing, laughing wildly, laughing unbridledly.

The soldiers, who were still in a panic, were attracted by his sudden smile, and looked at Cao Cao one after another, with the word fox suspicious written on their faces.

They were all thinking in their hearts, when it came to such internal and external troubles and crises, how could their lord still be in the mood to laugh.

The laughter stopped abruptly, and Cao Cao said disapprovingly: "Isn't it just that Liu Bei escaped and a Zang Ba left, two wastes who did nothing, even if they didn't escape, it would be a burden, they couldn't make any effort, it was better to go, and they saved a few rations of food and grass." ”

Cao Cao's self-confidence and disdain infected the soldiers on the left and right, and their wavering emotions gradually calmed down.

Cao Cao said loudly again: "Fucking cheer up Lao Tzu, how can my Cao Cao's soldiers be cowards, we have 20,000 horses, as well as Juxian Jiancheng, and also backed by Qingzhou, there is a steady stream of grain and grass support, what is there to be afraid of, the big deal is to consume him with that Su thief." ”

Guo Jia nodded slightly, a look of admiration flashed in his eyes, secretly thinking that Cao Cao really had the bearing of a king, although these words were vulgar, they were really full of pride and would definitely move people's hearts.

Sure enough, the fighting spirit of the surrounding Cao soldiers was immediately stimulated, and the fighting spirit was wildly ignited, and the gloom in their hearts was swept away.

"Fuck it, what's there to be afraid of!"

"Let's follow the lord, and we will be able to defend Jucheng."

"Fuck it."

For a time, the city was full of generosity, and the Cao army was full of fighting spirit.

The corners of Cao Cao's mouth swept up with a hint of relief, his eyes looked at Su Ying outside the city, and sneered: "Su Zhe, have the courage to let the horse come over, this time, I will see how you can break my Jucheng." ”

……

The next day, it was dark at night.

In a forest east of Jucheng, the cold blade reflected the moonlight, and the faint murderous aura was permeated.

Under the leadership of Zang Ba, Su Zhe walked through the crowd and came to the foot of a towering tree.

"Let's show the hole." Zang Ba shouted.

His Tarzan guards hurriedly moved a large stone under the tree, and a Hesse cave was revealed.

Su Zhe's eyes moved, and he looked at Zang Ba: "Xuangao, are you sure, can this underground cave lead to Jucheng?" ”

Zang Ba said with a determined expression: "Don't worry, the lord didn't worry, he secretly dug this tunnel to connect the inside and outside of the city, I am afraid that one day if he is besieged in Jucheng, he can escape from this tunnel, and the last general did not expect that it will be of great use now." ”

Su Zhe nodded slightly.

This is Zang Ba's clever plan to break the city, first send people to secretly infiltrate Jucheng from this tunnel, secretly set fire to start civil strife, and then take advantage of the enemy's chaos to attack the whole army and break the city in one fell swoop.

Su Zhe really didn't expect that Zang Ba would come to surrender, and he didn't expect that Zang Ba dug such a tunnel in Jucheng many years ago.

In the dark, it is like a divine help.

The murderous intent ignited in his eyes, and Su Zhe shouted: "Xu Gongming listens to the order!" ”

"The last general!" Xu Huang stepped forward angrily.

Su Zhe's horse whip pointed to the hole: "You speed three hundred dead soldiers, sneak into Jucheng from this tunnel, set fire to me and seize the door, and we should join forces with the outside to capture Jucheng in one fell swoop!" ”
