Chapter 16 Waiting for Work with Ease

Cao Cao, who escaped his life, on the way back to Luoyang, repeatedly remembered Lu Bu's evil smiling face, lingering. Cao Hong, who was following closely behind, saw Cao Cao's dejected appearance, and asked worriedly: "Lord, you are fine, right?" ”

"Huh?" Cao Cao glanced at Cao Hong, sighed, and said very sadly: "Because of my recklessness, I have sacrificed so many brothers in vain, and I am ashamed of them!" ”

"The lord must not say that, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, the lord should cheer up now and reinvigorate the morale of our army, so that he can be worthy of those dead brothers!" Cao Hong hugged his fists and comforted.

"You're right, I want to avenge the dead brothers, and I can't be discouraged by a defeat." Cao Cao's eyes once again glowed, and a cold killing intent swept across his face.

Back in Luoyang's Cao army camp, Xiahoudun and Cao Ren's generals had returned, and everyone was embarrassed and embarrassed. As soon as Cao Cao entered the camp, Xiahoudun and others immediately pounced, hugged Cao Cao and cried bitterly.

Cao Cao hurriedly asked the master of the army on the side, the casualties of the army, and when he heard that there were only 10,000 Cao soldiers left, Cao Cao's face turned pale, and he spewed out a mouthful of blood to the sky! These soldiers are all the hard work of my Cao Cao!

"My lord, the three thousand brothers under my command are gone, all gone!" Xiahoudun's cry was the most tragic, Cao Cao allocated his 3,000 men and horses, in the battle of Bianshui, was killed by the Xiliang army, in these 3,000 people Xiahoudun invested a huge amount of effort, now said that it is gone, it is gone, how can Xiahoudun not be heartbroken.

Cao Cao looked at Xiahoudun with affectionate eyes, and said: "Yuan Rang, their deaths are all my fault, if you want to blame, blame me!" ”

"Lord, how can I blame you, it's all Xu Rong and Lu Bu's damn Xiliang Army, I will definitely take revenge! Avenge! Xiahoudun almost roared out after saying the most.

The sound spread throughout the Cao camp, and countless Cao soldiers who were lucky enough to escape back also shouted when they heard Xiahoudun's voice.

A layer of stone stirred up a thousand layers, looking at the originally lifeless Cao Bing, suddenly the morale was high, Cao Cao's mind suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and a poisonous plan took shape in his heart.

"This defeat and the loss of so many brothers, I, Cao Mengde, have an unshirkable responsibility, and I am willing to apologize with death!" As he spoke, Cao Cao pulled out his sword from the stunned Cao Hong's waist and prepared to cut himself.

The sharp-eyed and quick-witted Xiahoudun hurriedly snatched the sword from Cao Cao's hand and persuaded: "Lord, you can't!" The world can't live without you! ”

"So many brothers have died because of me, what face do I have to live at this time! Give me the sword! Cao Cao cried with emotion, a handful of snot and a handful of tears.

Seeing Cao Cao crying so affectionately, the soldiers also shed tears.

"Lord, you can't do stupid things! I can't live without you in this world! Seeing that Cao Cao was crying more than himself, and that he was going to die or live, Xiahoudun quickly wiped away his eyes and knelt on the ground with a puff.

When the generals saw Xiahoudun kneeling, they all knelt down and loudly persuaded Cao Cao not to do stupid things.

When the soldiers saw Cao Cao's performance of true feelings, they were all moved, and all of them knelt down.

Seeing that the soldiers and generals of the whole battalion were moved by themselves, Cao Cao borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, and said: "In this case, I will leave this life for the time being, but this defeat, as the commander-in-chief, I have an unshirkable responsibility, and I will cut my hair as the head!" As he spoke, Cao Cao cut off a strand of hair with his sword.

Cao Cao's move made the already high morale of the soldiers even more excited. The first step was completed, and an imperceptible smile flashed across Cao Cao's face.

"Brothers, do you want revenge?" Cao Cao asked suddenly.

"Yes!" The three armies said in unison.

Cao Cao said: "Now that Xu Rong has won a big victory, he will definitely get carried away, it is a defense, if we kill it now, we will definitely be able to avenge those dead brothers." ”

"Kill back! Kill back! Avenge! Avenge! ”

The three armies shouted in unison, resounding for nine days.

*****************************************

"Big brother, are you really so sure that Cao Cao will kill back?" Hou Cheng asked.

"You've asked this question more than a dozen times, and if you ask it again, I'll kick your ass!" Lu Bu glared at Hou Cheng angrily, and his mood was very irritable.

Self-confidence sometimes equals conceit! This sentence is not wrong at all, I naively thought that he could talk about Xu Rong, even if he didn't believe his words, he would borrow some soldiers and horses from himself, and let himself give Cao Cao an urn to catch turtles.

Knowing from history that after Cao Cao's defeat, he made a comeback and killed Xu Rong, and Lu Bu had a comprehensive plan in his heart, he wanted to completely defeat Cao Cao when Cao Cao came for the second time, and trampled this hero under his feet.

This is like a game, Lu Bu thought he could manipulate the whole situation, but he didn't expect Xu Rong to turn his face when he said it, and he didn't give face at all.

Actually, this is not to blame Xu Rong, Dong Zhuo has explained to his generals that without his permission, no one can hand over the military power to Lu Bu, and anyone who dares to borrow Lu Bu will be killed!

Dong Zhuo seems to be like father and son to Lu Bu, but in fact, he is wary everywhere, he Lu Bu can slaughter Ding Yuan for a horse, for glory and wealth, who dares to say that Lu Bu will not attack him.

So up to now, Lu Bu's position has always been very embarrassing, on the one hand, he is Dong Zhuoyizi, the god of war of the three armies, on the other hand, in addition to having thousands of parts, he can't move a single soldier of the Xiliang Army at all. This is also an important reason why Li Dao, Guo Yan and others were able to easily break through Chang'an after Lu Bu killed Dong Zhuo in the future, and the Xiliang Army did not listen to your Lu Bu's dispatch at all.

As soon as the Xiliang army guarding Chang'an saw the banners of Li Dao and Guo Yan, they immediately abandoned their weapons and surrendered, and took the initiative to open the city gate to welcome Li Dao and Guo Yan's army. Lu Bu only had a few thousand people, and there was no food and grass, so he couldn't do Li Dao and Guo Yan at all, so he had to wander and live a life of fleeing.

Lu Bu sighed, in this era of the rise of the heroes, what will happen in the future will not work at all, you have to have strength and strategy, but it's a pity that he Lu Bu doesn't, there are only a few hundred brothers around him at present, including Zhang Liao, Hou Cheng, and Song XianΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· In addition to this Zhang Liao, Lu Bu was very satisfied, seeing other people, Lu Bu was very sad, especially Hou Cheng, Song Xian, Wei Xu, Lu Bu didn't know what to do, if he continued to develop according to the normal wheel of history, his little life would be killed by them. But now, it's three guys and they can wear a pair of pants.

Sighing slightly, Lu Bu said: "Cao Cao will definitely lead the army to kill and run back, we will ambush Cao Cao on the way to withdraw his army, Cao Cao at that time will definitely get carried away with joy because he defeated Xu Rong, I can't count that we will ambush halfway." ”

"Big brother, there are only a few hundred of us, can we do it? You must know that even after Cao Cao's repeated battles, there are still a lot of soldiers! Zhang Liao said.

Lu Bu nodded: "I know this, but if you think about it carefully, after the Cao army was defeated by Xu Rong, it fought back, and started another battle with Xu Rongjun, although it defeated Xu Rong, but after a series of battles, how much combat power did their soldiers have?" And they defeated Xu Rong, moved back to a game, and let out a vicious breath, at this time they must be proud and tired, and they will not consider that there will be ambushes, or how many ambushes there will be, as long as we kill them, we will scare them to death! ”

"Awesome! Eldest brother! Zhang Liao and others applauded again and again.

"But?" Hou Cheng scratched his head and said, "Big brother, will they kill them back?" ”

Lu Bu rolled his eyes, no wonder Xu Rong didn't believe his words so much, even his little brother didn't believe him so much, how could he, Xu Rong, believe it.

"Inform the brothers to have a good rest, since the turtle in the urn can't be implemented, then we will wait for work!" Lu Bu said.
