After seeing Sun Ce and Xiao Ru's fleet, Zhuge Liang, who was sitting in the Han army formation on the north bank, had a happy face on his face, and immediately said quickly to the herald beside him: "Quick! Inform them with the flag, let them make a detour to the south bank and land, set up a position behind Cao Cao, and cut off Cao Cao's retreat! ”

After receiving Zhuge Liang's banner, Sun Ce and Xiao Ru immediately turned around, turned sharply down the Yellow River, drove out for twenty miles, landed on the south bank of the Yellow River, and then reorganized the troops and horses, and returned to the battlefield.

Across the entire Yellow River, when Zhuge Liang saw that Sun Ce had cut off the retreat of Cao Cao's army according to his own strategy, he suddenly felt a sense of stability in his heart. After settling down, Zhuge Liang said to the herald beside him in a slightly nervous and excited tone: "Urge our army to speed up and cross the river one after another, and strive to reach the south bank of the Yellow River in the shortest possible time and trap Cao Cao!" ”

Seeing that the great cause of the Northern Han Dynasty to dominate the world was about to be completed, even Zhuge Liang, who has always been known for his caution and stability, was a little unable to restrain his inner emotions, nervousness and excitement, which were not the same emotions, appeared in Zhuge Liang's heart at the same time.

Under Zhuge Liang's order, up to the veteran Huang Zhong and down to the junior Jiang Wei, except for the soldiers who were responsible for protecting the safety of Zhuge Liang and other civil servants and strategists, the rest of the people all rushed to the south bank of the Yellow River.

Half an hour later, most of the soldiers of the Northern Han Dynasty had crossed the Yellow River and came to the south bank of the Yellow River. Hundreds of thousands of troops began to assemble on the shore, at this time Huang Zhong, the highest status and the most qualified, stood up, temporarily served as the commander-in-chief of the army, divided the hundreds of thousands of troops into three closely connected battle formations on the left, center and right, and advanced towards Cao Cao's main army along the footsteps of Ao Lie's department.

Behind Cao Cao's army, Sun Ce also made the same move as Huang Zhong, and the 200,000 army spread out and crushed Cao Cao's main army......

The two Northern Han elite soldiers were divided into two directions, and at the same time launched a fierce attack on Cao Cao's army, an unprecedented contest, which entered a climax, with a total of nearly two million soldiers on both sides, on the bank of the Yellow River, launched an endless fight, every moment, someone will fall, and inject their own blood into the sand on the bank of the Yellow River. The Yellow River, the oldest ancient river, became a historical witness to the war.

The battle lasted from sunrise to sunset, and when the sun was about to set, the battlefield finally calmed down. Under the encompassing of the two elite soldiers of the Northern Han Dynasty, Cao Cao failed to become famous in Guandu again like the last time he defeated Yuan Shao, but became the loser of this war.

When the war gradually subsided, Cao Cao stood in the center of the battlefield with his hair scattered, and at this moment there were only tens of thousands of people left by him, and the rest were either killed by the Northern Han soldiers, or became prisoners of the Northern Han Dynasty, or took advantage of the chaos to escape from the battlefield, abandoning the dignity of the soldiers without dignity.

Ao Lie sat on the back of the snow dragon horse in the night and came to Cao Cao. Although after a whole day of fighting, those who are as strong as Ao Lie are already exhausted, but at this moment, Ao Lie's waist is still straight. Victory is already in sight, and the world, which has been divided for decades, is about to be reunited in the hands of Ao Lie, who has absolute pride and can straighten his waist to face anyone in the world.

When Ao Lie and Cao Cao's eyes were intertwined, both of them saw the vicissitudes of life in each other's eyes. After being silent for a long time, Ao Lie took the lead and said, "Brother Mengde, you lost. ”

Cao Cao nodded silently, threw away the Heavenly Sword in his hand, reached out and brushed the loose hair at his sideburns, and then looked directly at Ao Lie and said, "That's right, you won." From the first time I saw you, Lone had a feeling that you would be the only enemy of Lone's life, but what Lone didn't expect was that the final winner was not Lone, but you. ”

Ao Lie lowered the overlord gun in his hand, glanced at Cao Cao deeply, and then said to Cao Cao: "It doesn't matter who wins or who loses. The important thing is that from now on, the people of the world will no longer suffer from war. At the very least, their lives will be stable for a long time to come. ”

Cao Cao suddenly smiled and said, "Brother Mo Han, if today's winner is Lonely, can you still say so lightly that victory or defeat doesn't matter?" ”

Ao Lie replied seriously: "Of course." Even if you win today, this king will say the same. For you and me, there is a difference between a winner and a loser, and this king does not deny this. But for the people of the world, it really doesn't matter who wins and who loses. Even if you are the last to rule the world, the people will be freed from the suffering of war, do you say? ”

Cao Cao tilted his head and thought for a moment, and said, "It makes sense." 'Tens of thousands of mansions in Ande, so that a large number of poor people in the world are happy, I wish it is enough', what you said is really very reasonable, and the lonely heart is convinced. Before he died, Lone had one last request, hoping that Brother Mo Han would be able to answer it. ”

Ao Lie looked at Cao Cao and said flatly: "Brother Meng De, just say it." ”

Cao Cao snatched a spear from one of the tiger guards beside him, clenched the barrel of the spear with both hands, pointed the tip of the spear at Ao Lie, and said loudly: "The last request is to be able to fight with you fairly!" No matter what later generations say about Lone, it doesn't matter if Lone is a hero or a traitor, but Lone doesn't want to die in the hands of others, if he wants to die, he will die under the gun of a big hero like you! ”

The overlord spear that had been hanging in Ao Lie's hand was slowly raised, held flat in front of his chest, and expressed his heart to Cao Cao with silent actions.

Cao Cao laughed a few times, then kicked the belly of the war horse with his legs and rushed towards Ao Lie.

"Hurry!" Ao Lie snorted softly, and the Night Snow Dragon Horse immediately entered a state of sprinting, bringing up a burst of afterimages and colliding with Cao Cao.

Bell –

In one move, the spear in Cao Cao's hand was knocked away by the overlord gun, Ao Lie's wrist flicked, and the sharp tip of the overlord spear pierced into Cao Cao's left chest, and came out of Cao Cao's back heart, bringing out a bead of blood.

Smack-

Cao Cao's body crashed under the horse, his body kept twitching, and blood foamed in his mouth, and he was already less inlet and more out. Looking down at Cao Cao, Ao Lie put away the overlord gun, stretched out his hand and pulled up the dragon mask, and looked at Cao Cao fixedly, until Cao Cao's body completely became still and could no longer move......

The Battle of Guandu, which ended with a complete victory for the Northern Han led by Ao Lie, has been divided for decades in the world, and on the day of the end of the Battle of Guandu, it entered the countdown to great unification.

On the eighth day of November in the second year of Kangqian, an army of 800,000 led by Ao Lie personally captured Xuchang and occupied this large city, which was once the capital of Wei and had been painstakingly operated by Cao Cao for more than ten years.

On November 15 of the second year of Kangqian, the Southern Army led by Pang Tong captured the entire territory of Yuzhou, and finally completed the return to the division in Xuchang and Ao Lie.

At the end of November of the second year of Kangqian, Sun Ce, who led his troops back to the vicinity of the East China Sea, conquered the entire territory of Xuzhou with the cooperation of Xiao Ru, and planted the banner of the Northern Han Dynasty on the head of Xuzhou City.

On the third day of December in the second year of Kangqian, the Southwest Army, under the leadership of Xu Shu, joined forces with Pang De and Ma Chao's subordinates and sent troops from Guanzhong to capture Yanzhou.

On the ninth day of December in the second year of Kangqian, Zhuge Liang, who sent troops from Xuchang, with 200,000 people, fought a series of battles within 10 days, eliminated the last hostile force entrenched in Qingzhou, pacified Qingzhou on December 19, and completed the last step of the Northern Han Dynasty to unify the world.

On the first day of the first month of the third year of Kangqian, Ao Lie ordered the army to return to Yanjing after arranging the remaining personnel in various parts of the Central Plains. After returning to Yanjing, Ao Lie ordered the five major armies to be formally disbanded, and military power was restored to the control of the central government. The names of the soldiers who have performed well in the Battle of Guandu will be engraved on the Monument of Loyal Martyrs, posthumously honored as the founding martyrs, and will always be admired by future generations, becoming an indelible spiritual example for future generations.

After the completion of the great unification of the world, Ao Lie made great efforts to govern the country, implemented the policy of rest and recuperation, and paid attention to the all-round development of industry, agriculture, and commerce, and in just two years, he achieved good results, so that all the people of the Northern Han Dynasty lived a truly stable life, and the people had enough food and clothing, and lived and worked in peace and contentment, resulting in the gradual reduction of bandits and bandits in the Northern Han Dynasty, as well as all kinds of traitors, and finally to extinction.

One day two years later, Ao Lie came to the Youzhou platform, looked at the great rivers and mountains condescendingly, and couldn't help but have infinite feelings in his heart. Zhuge Liang and Pang stood on Ao Lie's side on the left and right, and they were also embarrassed.

"Kong Ming, Shi Yuan, do you know? Actually, Cao Cao did not die. At the beginning, Lone pierced his left chest, which seemed fatal, but in fact, he was the same as Yide, and his heart grew on the right side. After a long silence, Ao Lie suddenly revealed an astonishing secret.

Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong were shocked at the same time, they never expected that Cao Cao, who had been judged dead in the battle of Guandu, would survive.

Without waiting for Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong to speak, Ao Lie took out a piece of silk cloth from his arms and handed it to them, and said in a low voice: "Cao Cao's recent situation has been discovered by the members of the Shadow and recorded in the form of pictures, you can take a look." Perhaps, his current life is what he really wants......"

Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong finished silk cloth, opened it and saw that there was such a scene painted on it: in front of a small thatched hut, an old man was lying on a rattan chair, with an indescribable look of comfort on his face, looking at the juniors comfortably, a woman who was nearly thirty years old sat beside him and bowed her head to sew clothes, in front of the young woman, two young men of the same age, one was writing and doing homework, and the other was waving an axe and wearing firewood......

Through the text marks on the screen, Zhuge Liang and Peng Tong were surprised to find that the old man with a peaceful demeanor was Cao Cao; The woman sitting next to him turned out to be Cao Xian, who had been missing for a long time, that is, Liu Xie's concubine; And the two teenagers opposite Cao Xian, although the shadow members did not mark their identities with words, but with the intelligence of Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, they easily guessed their identities - Liu Xie's only two sons in this world.

Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong glanced at each other, and at the same time raised their heads and asked Ao Lie: "King Yan, what are you going to do with them?" ”

Ao Lie glanced at the picture on the picture, and said with some envy: "I don't plan to." Now he is no longer the same person he used to be, he is just an ordinary old man who enjoys the joy of his children and grandchildren under his knees. It is their blessing that the three generations of their grandparents can share the joy of family, so let's not mix it up and let them live peacefully......

More than ten years later, Ao Lie handed over the power of the Northern Han Dynasty to his son Liu Kun, who was proclaimed emperor in the eighteenth year of Kangqian and changed to Qingping, which means that the people of the world can live forever in a peaceful and prosperous era, and will not decay for thousands of years......

The era of Ao Lie came to an end, a new era kicked off, what remains unchanged is that the old and new monarchs, in the minds of the people of the world, are rare to see the Ming monarch for thousands of years, although Ao Lie throughout his life, and did not call the emperor, but the people will always respectfully call it "Emperor Lie" when mentioning Ao Lie.
