"Zhang Youwei, you ......" Cao Rendeng realized that the reason why he lost Rencheng so quickly must be inseparable from Zhang Xiu.

In fact, it was Zhang Xiu who used his identity as a general of Cao Jun to open the gate of Rencheng and introduce the church army into the city. The defender of the city, Li Tong, was captured, and the deputy general Sun Li surrendered to Cheng.

Cao Ren glared at Zhang Xiu, trembling with anger, "Despicable villain." Have you forgotten the military orders you made? He repeated the military order: "'Within a month, bring in the rescue soldiers, and if you violate this oath, you will not be able to die.'" 'Now thou art treacherous, are thou not afraid of the wreath of heaven?' ”

"Damnation? Haha......" Zhang Xiu looked up to the sky and smiled, "Cao Zixiao's words are wrong. A few months ago, I had returned to the lintel of the Holy Sect, and the Holy Sect Heavenly Soldiers were my reinforcements. He waved his spear and pointed at the well-dressed church soldiers and horses, "It's been less than a few months, and the reinforcements are here." If the oath is fulfilled as promised, where can it be said that God will damn it? ”

When signing the military order, whether it was Cao Cao or Cao Ren, where did they want Zhang Xiu to play word games with them, the reinforcements in the military order did not refer to the Xuchang Cao army, but to the church's soldiers and horses.

It was useless to regret it here, Cao Ren scolded a few words angrily, and led the troops to retreat.

Guan Gong, Zhang Xiu, Zhao Yun, and Huang Zhong followed and killed, although they failed to catch up with Cao Ren's main force, they forced Cao Ren to abandon the rear army, leaving behind countless grains, grasses, and baggage.

Poor Cao Ren still wanted to use the ballista to restrain the thunderbolt, but now because of the slow movement of the ballista, he had to abandon them all, and let the church army take them captive in vain. In the future, there will be no sharp weapon that can resist the thunderbolt.

Back in Dongping, Cao Ren immediately reported the reason for the fall of Rencheng to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao suddenly felt dizzy, had a splitting headache, and his eyes were full of stars...... His eyes were black, and he fainted on the spot.

In response to the urgency of the civil and military, he hurriedly stepped forward and pinched people, sprayed cold water, and finally woke up Cao Cao.

Cao Cao woke up, let out a long breath, and then screamed, "Ahhh......hh

Originally, he also regarded Zhang Xiu as the last straw. Now, the last ray of hope has been completely extinguished with Zhang Xiu's betrayal, and even the ballista has been lost...... There were chasing soldiers in front, and there were interceptions in the back, and he Cao Cao was blocked in the lonely city.

The outcome of the war is already obvious, and even a fool can see it.

Cao Cao exclaimed sadly: "Luan Ziqi...... Guo Fengxiao, you ...... You're so ruthless! ”

I have to admit that the battle of Yanzhou between the two major forces of the church and Cao Cao is not without ups and downs, even if it is placed in the book of war, it is a very typical combat force.

As the chief strategic planner of the church, Guo Jia revealed his hideous side, worthy of the name of the first strategist of the Three Kingdoms given to him by later generations.

He first let Luan Yi deceive in Rencheng, and Luan Yi improvised and pretended to cheat to death. As a result, Cao Cao was sluggish, underestimated the strength of the church, rashly attacked, and went deep into the Yanzhou territory alone. After successive victories, he became arrogant and intended to seize Jinan in one fell swoop. But when the soldiers approached the city of Licheng, they found that Luan Yi was not dead.

The soldiers and horses of the church fought and retreated, always retreating without a fight, holding back a lot of energy in their hearts, and their momentum and morale reached their peak, and now they are all vented. On the other hand, Cao Cao, the war went smoothly, whether it was a general or a soldier, all of them had the heart of contempt for the enemy.

With mental calculation or unintentional, Cao Junyan can be undefeated.

Half a month before the Battle of Licheng began, Guo Jia took the lead to lead his troops back to Jinan, and along the Grand Canal, he went around half of Qingzhou and rushed to Yutai at the junction of Qingyan and Xuzhou. He also sent troops from Yutai and broke Shanyang with a thunderbolt car.

Prior to this, Xiahou Yuan, the commander of the Cao army, successfully burned down the granary of Yutai. It's just that they don't know it, and this is also part of Guo Jia's plan to snub Cao Cao's army and induce him to go deep alone.

The Yutai granary was indeed destroyed, but the grain contained in the silo was a real inferior amount, and it was moldy and spoiled and inedible. The reason why it looks full and round is actually the effect of processing through technology.

Of course, this link is from Luan Yi's handwriting. Coming from the 21st century, he has a lot of knowledge about these fraudulent methods that endanger food safety, and they are reported on the TV news every day. For example, moldy and spoiled grain and rice are washed and steamed with sulfur and boiling water. After drying and drying, each is full and crystal clear. After processing, the appearance is even better than that of the finest grain.

Don't say Cao Bing, even the current grain planting master can't see anything unusual just by looking at it with the naked eye.

Therefore, the granary of the church was not burned at all, and the army of the church did not run out of food. Cao Jun was busy all night, but in fact, he was just helping Luan Yi dispose of the bad grain that he wanted to burn.

At this point, there is a new question, "Where is the food for the church?" ”

A month later, when Luan Yi revealed the answer to this question to Cao Cao, Cao Cao was stunned for a while, then looked up to the sky and sighed, and then stroked his palms and laughed, "I can't complain that I didn't expect it, it's really Ziqi is too cunning." Of course, this is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.

So where did Luan Yi put the grain and grass? The answer was unexpected, and Cao Cao was amazed. It turned out that Luan Yi did store the grain in Yutai. It's just that the real grain and grass is not in the ground, but buried in the cellar located underground.

Fake grain and grass on the ground to confuse the enemy. The real grain and grass are in the cellar, as stable as Mount Tai.

True and false, false and true, false and true, false and real, real and false, Guo Jia and Luan Yi joined forces to turn Cao Cao Xue upside down, and finally suffered from the enemy on both sides and was trapped in Dongping City, Yanzhou.

Three days later, Luan's army pursued from the east, and Guo Jia's army rushed into Dongping County from the west. The two lines of soldiers and horses were scattered ten miles away from Dongping City, cutting off all roads from Dongping City to the outside world.

Cao Cao knew that it was difficult to fly this time, and he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. At this time, listen to the city gate guard's report, "The cult envoy is now under the city, asking to see the lord!" ”

Cao Cao could guess what Luan Yi sent an envoy to do with his ass! In the case of such a war that is not good for his quarter, it is certainly not to come to seek peace. If it is not to seek peace, it is to surrender.

"Nope!" He responded angrily.

Xun Yu hurriedly advised: "Lord, it's okay to see each other, and listen to what he has to say!" ”

Xun Yu spoke, Cao Cao was not easy to refuse, and said angrily: "Xuan him in." ”

After a while, a person walked outside the hall. Cao Cao squinted his eyes, "Who else should I be, it turned out to be Luan Fu." ”

The current Luan Fu is not the little scholar that Luan Yi used to be, the tide is rising, he has always been highly used by Luan Yi, and now he is also a well-known big man in the church. From his personal envoy to Cao Cao, it can also be seen that Luan Yi attaches great importance to Cao Cao.

"I've seen it, Duke Cao, Lord Zhu!" With a gentle and contrived smile, Luan Fu greeted everyone one by one, and behaved politely and politely, giving people a sense of cordiality. made Xun Yu and others involuntarily think of the days when they were with Luan Yi day and night, and a strong sense of guilt arose.

Cao Cao asked, "Say it!" What do you have to say when Luan Ziqi sent you? ”

"Nothing. Only to send invitations. Luan Fu took out a big red invitation card from his sleeve, handed it to Cao Cao through the armor, and said: "The head of my family will hold a banquet tomorrow in the Canglang Pavilion five miles southeast of the city, and invite the princes to talk about the frontier. To go or not to go, please give a letter of approval from Gong Cao, so that the villain can return. ”

"Banquet? I'm afraid it's a Hongmen banquet. Li Diangang carried a big heel in the hands of the church, and he was angry but spoke with thorns.

"Lord, you can't go to this banquet." Xiahoudun also advised.

Cao Cao didn't make a decision immediately, and glanced at the content of the invitation, only to see that on the invitation written by Luan Yi himself, the header part reads, "Brother Mengde's Taijian......"

The three words "Brother Meng De" pierced Cao Cao's eyes like dazzling light.

Over the years, Cao Cao and Luan Yi have been fighting constantly. During this period, Cao Cao indirectly forced Luan Yi's second uncle to death. Luan Yi pushed Xiahou Yuan and Cao Hong into the sea of fire during the Battle of Licheng.

To this day, Luan Ziqi still calls him his brother...... Is it a show, a show, or from the bottom of my heart?

He continued to read down, skipping the polite words in front of him, and came to the end part, "Brother Meng De, do you still remember what Brother Brother said to you when the princes of the Nineteenth Road jointly discussed Dong that day?" I said, 'The way of the world has changed, the environment has changed, and the hearts of people have naturally changed!' Obviously, we are all subtly changing ourselves, sometimes not even knowing ourselves. However, this change is understandable and the result of adapting to the times. It is precisely because we are in front of others that we deserve the title of heroes of the world. I don't blame you, I hope you don't resent me either. I remember that day, I also said a sentence, I said: 'I Luan Ziqi may change, but I am definitely a person who distinguishes between public and private, and I will not abandon friendship at will. Even if you and I meet each other because of contradictions, I, Luan Ziqi, are still your brothers, and this will never change. This is still etched in my mind today, and I will put it into practice. Therefore, tomorrow at the banquet, please don't worry about your own safety, although I am not a gentleman, I am not a villain, and I will never use despicable means such as assassination during the banquet. I just wanted to treat you to a meal, catch up, and show you something. That's all, all hope came as promised. Luan Yi worshipped. ”

Seeing the end of the invitation, Cao Cao's hands trembled involuntarily, and the situation slide of the alliance of the princes of the Nineteenth Road came into his eyes. At that time, the princes of all walks of life were so dashing, and how many people were invincible. But where are the vast majority of them now? Gongsun Zan was killed in battle, Yuan Shu was stabbed to death by a woman, and Sun Jian died in the chaos of arrows...... Dead and dead; As for the living, the Zen spirit tried his best to intrigue and attack...... Just like him and Luan Yi, the two who were originally like brothers, actually formed so many grudges.

He let out a long sigh and said, "Hey...... O iniquity! ”

He originally thought that the hatred between him and Luan Yi would get deeper and deeper, but he never thought that Luan Yi would lower his stature and take the initiative to say that he didn't hate him.

Hate is a wonderful thing, and it comes like a storm. Another similarity between it and heavy rain and hail is that heavy rain and floods come and go quickly. When you come, you are violent, and when you go, you are a thousand miles.

Cao Cao found that he couldn't hate himself now. He felt more and more that he didn't know what to hate Luan Yi at all.
