Chapter 306: The Third Thing
The desolate rain was constantly falling from the sky, dripping on everyone on the battlefield, making people feel inexplicably sad because of this big battle.
Eight ways to attack Cao Ying, Yuan army won a complete victory, Cao army soldiers and horses were killed and wounded, fled in all directions, the battle situation in Guanzhong has been decided, but in the face of Cao army's hard counterattack, Yuan army is not comfortable, they must quickly count the wounded soldiers and horses, so as not to prepare military supplies, in order to recover combat strength and vitality in the shortest possible time.
However, all this aftermath work has to be handed over to Tian Feng and Sima Yi and others, but Yuan Shang himself can't rest, because he must hurry up to do another major thing, that is, to pursue Cao Cao, who is already on the verge of the end of the road, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Yuan Shang doesn't want to miss it, and he can't miss it, because he knows that for a man like Cao Cao, once the tiger returns to the mountain, it will be endless troubles!
Heroes cherish heroes, Yuan Shang actually has an attitude of being both an enemy and a friend to Cao Cao, but the calm and subconscious mirror told him that Cao Cao is a person, he must die!
The soldiers and horses who followed Yuan Shang to chase were all elite cavalry, but the generals who followed were only Ma Chao, and the rest were all left in place waiting for dispatch.
For this matter, Ma Chao is obviously a little painful, other generals can pat their butts and rest dry after a big battle, but since Ma Chao participated in the chase for Cao Cao, he obviously can't rest, so he can only follow Yuan Shang to the southeast.
"You have so many generals, why are you leading me to chase me alone? Is there no one available under your Yuan army's account? Ma Chao looked angry, glared at Yuan Shang with some resentment, and muttered.
Yuan Shang glanced at him indifferently, and said leisurely: "You bastard, you haven't done anything, but you can be called soft?" Naturally, there is no shortage of generals in our Yuan army, but after a battle of life and death, everyone is risking their lives. Exhausted, only you didn't do anything, you were in good spirits, you said I didn't lead you, who did you lead? ”
When Ma Chao heard this, his face turned purple with anger, he glared at Yuan Shang angrily, and roared angrily: "What do you mean I didn't do anything?" Who is the person who beat Xu Chu? Isn't it me? ”
Yuan Shang raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and said: "Everyone fights several by one, and you are fighting one-on-one, what is there to show off?" ”
"You" Ma gritted his teeth angrily. Said: "I'll hit this one, and the others on top will hit a hundred!" That's Xu Chu! Tiger idiot Xu Chu! Cao Cao's No. 1 single-headed general! If you are not convinced, you go and give it a try? ”
Yuan Shang smiled slightly when he heard this, shook his head and said: "Don't quibble, even if you are the number one brave general under Cao Cao's account, but think about it, did you kill him?" You rode Xu Chu to rescue Cao Cao and stabbed him seven times, but he didn't stab him to death, if I were you. I have to squint at all of this, and I don't take a word out of it, it's not shameful enough~! ”
Ma Chao was stunned when he heard this, and opened his mouth. But Yuan Shang couldn't defend himself, so he had to swallow the words helplessly, and had to follow Yuan Shang to run wildly into the distance
****************************8
It was rainy, and Cao Cao drove the horse that sat down and drove melancholy on the official road. Although the horse he sat down was anxious, his expression was blank, and his already old cheeks looked even more deteriorating at the moment.
"Zhong Kang. You don't deserve to die, you shouldn't be under your skills anymore, if it weren't for saving orphans, you wouldn't have been seriously injured like this, it's Lonely's fault or Lonely's"
Cao Cao's thoughts, while chattering, I couldn't help but burst into tears, now Cao Cao's body, there is no trace of a generation of heroes, there are only endless vicissitudes and old age, he has become a lonely old man, walking alone under the end of the night and rain.
Although the rain was still falling, the distant morning sun had begun to slowly rise along the east, and a faint light sprinkled on Cao Cao's body, which was extraordinarily bright, but there was an indescribable gloomy atmosphere.
While driving his horse, Cao Cao slowly looked up into the distance, and suddenly said to himself: "What a beautiful morning sun?"
As soon as he said this, he suddenly heard a slippery sound of "second", and the legs and feet of the war horse that Cao Cao sat on were weak, and he also fell heavily to the ground, and the blood in the hole on the horse's body shot by the arrow had been drained, and the skin and flesh turned out to be a little purple and rotten, exuding a pungent smell.
Cao Cao slowly got up from the ground, walked slowly to the horse's side, leaned over to look at the mount that was no longer breathing, and the two lines of tears burst into tears again.
Cao Cao raised his hand and gently touched the mane of the horse's head, and said in a low voice: "Thank you for your hard work."
The horse did not move, but it used its will to exhaust life for the Lord to express its loyalty to its master.
After silently mourning for his mount for a while, Cao Cao slowly stood up, looked at the official road in the distance, and watched silently.
"In the past, loneliness didn't feel that loneliness was a painful thing, when did it start? When did you begin to notice the loneliness brought about by loneliness cough, cough, cough~~! ”
Speaking of this, Cao Cao suddenly coughed violently, then spat out two mouthfuls of black blood from his mouth, and his body began to shake slightly.
"It starts when you lose your victory and face defeat."
A loud voice came out slowly from the woods next to the official road, Cao Cao turned his head indifferently to look, but saw a handsome and extraordinary face, wearing a scarf, hand-cranked white feather fan of the young man slowly walked out from the period, although his age teeth are not big, but the face of the wind is light, but it shows the wisdom and style of a generation of masters, making people look up and dare not face it, just like the fairy who does not eat the fireworks in the world.
Cao Cao looked at this young man, as if he was broken by his bones, or moved by his words, he lost his mind slightly, and after a while, he slowly said, "What do you mean by this?" ”
The young man holding the feather fan flicked the sleeves of his robe slightly, gave gifts to Cao Operation, and said clearly: "The reason why you didn't feel lonely back then, not lonely, is because you have the power in your hands to see the four seas and be proud of Kyushu, you are high up, overlooking all living beings, drifting, and you don't feel lonely, but now you are from the sky to the earth, the soldiers and horses are all lost, you are alone, there is no glory and prestige in the past, naturally you are extremely lonely Back then, it was the power in your hands that took away your loneliness, And now it is the loss of power that gives you some loneliness that is different from loneliness, which is human nature, please don't worry. ”
Cao Cao seemed to come back to his senses when he heard this, and suddenly thought for a long time, and finally regained some of his vitality, hugged his fist at the visitor, and said: "Your Excellency's words are really sobering and thoughtful, I don't know the name of Gao?" ”
The person who came smiled slightly and said: "Nanyang savages, lazy and lazy, cheap name is not enough to repay it." ”
Cao Cao frowned and said lightly: "Nanyang savage, are you Zhuge Liang?" ”
Zhuge Liang smiled slightly and said, "I didn't expect that in the next cultivator, Lord Sikong would be able to know the Tao." ”
Cao Cao no longer paid attention to Zhuge Liang, but turned his gaze to the woods on the side, and said in a loud voice: "Liu Bei, since you have already come, why don't you come out to see Gu?" Could it be that today, Lone has fallen to this point, and you are still afraid of Lonely? ”
Cao Cao's voice resounded on the official road and the edge of the woods, and a sparse sound slowly sounded, and after a while, he saw Liu Bei, Zhang Fei, Chen Zhi and others led by Liu Jun's soldiers and horses, and finally appeared in front of Cao Cao's eyes.
Cao Cao smiled slightly, and said casually: "You have already reached the point where the Lone Society is defeated?" ”
Liu Bei looked at Cao Cao fixedly and said, "It's done!" It's just that I didn't expect you to lose so badly, and there was not even one around you. ”
Cao Cao smiled and shook his head: "I didn't expect that even if I was defeated, why would you think that Lone would go this way?" ”
Zhuge Liang gently shook the feather fan and said: "In the land of Guanzhong, Ben Xuchang is too far, Ben Chen has left war, and the soldiers and horses in the rest of the places are not enough to stick to their bodies, only the land of Wanluo is quite close to Guanzhong, and the soldiers and horses are enough, so they can be settled!" ”
Cao Cao couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, shook his head and said: "It's not simple, it's not simple, Zhuge Liang Kong Ming is really very human." ”
Zhuge Liang shook his head with a smile, and made another gesture, and said: "Sikong praised, before Liang and the lord left Jingzhou, they had formulated three major things to do, one is to seize Wancheng and consolidate the strength of our army's forward position, and the second is to calculate Cai Mao to pave the way for our army to sit down in Jingzhou in the future, this is the third."
Speaking of this, Zhuge Liang didn't say anything, but Liu Bei slowly took over and said: "Third, it's to kill you!" ”
"Kill me?" Cao Cao Ha Lu Ha Yile said: "What is the intention? In order to be the enemy of the entire Cao clan? ”
Zhuge Liang shook his head with a smile, and said: "Being an enemy of the Cao family is inevitable and unavoidable, but it is also a drawback, but Liang believes that if the lord can personally slash the national thieves here today, the prestige will inevitably reach its peak, and he will return to Jingzhou in the future, and after mastering the real power, the lord will have the merit of killing the national thieves, the respect of the imperial uncle, and the power of Jingzhou under it, then"
Cao Cao suddenly said: "Then the heroes of the world and the loyal ministers of the Han family will inevitably gather, competing to vote, at that time, you Liu Xuande sword pointed directly at the world, invincible and unfavorable, to the south and the north, the loyal Han ministers have opened the city to offer the pool, then the great cause of unification is in sight, and there is no way to do it, right?" ”
Zhuge Liang arched his hand lightly and said, "It's commonplace." ”
Liu Bei took a deep breath, slowly pulled out the male and female double-strand sword, and said, "Cao Cao, this is the most difficult battle, show your Heavenly Sword!" ”
When Cao Cao heard this, he smiled slightly, and a little coldness suddenly burst out of his eyes, and said: "Liu Bei, when I was alone with you in Xudu, I once told you that if you want to talk about your ambitions, you must have a considerable amount of strength!" If you can really defeat Lone today, Lone will give you the qualification to talk about your ambitions! (To be continued.) )
