Chapter 73: A Girl with a Blooming Heart
Wei State Highlands.
On the twenty-meter-high wall, a long-haired middle-aged man in scarlet blood armor was holding his hands behind his back, looking at the endless canyon from afar, and his dark red pupils hid a trace of throbbing edge.
At some point, a few petals floated in the air, and a peerless woman appeared behind him like a ghost.
Cao Cao turned his head and glanced at Diao Chan, whose eyes were slightly red, and he seemed to have expected this situation: "Is that person really unwilling to come?" ”
Diao Chan didn't speak, and her beautiful face was full of pitiful loss.
"Young man." Cao Cao shook his head, for him, love is far less tempting than power and power.
Diao Chan was still silent, just looking in the direction he came back with affection.
In this way, the two of them stood quietly on the high wall, each with their own thoughts, looking at the canyon from afar.
After a while, Cao Cao suddenly asked, "Have you seen that sharp soldier named Wang Yao?" ”
"When the concubine rushed over, she also saw another soldier, it should be him." Diao Chan replied softly.
"What do you think?"
"He has a very special aura about him, very similar to a hero, but not as strong as a hero."
Cao Cao was silent for a moment: "When the king saw Lu Bu's blood returning to the high ground, was he injured by them?" ”
"Yes." Diao Chan nodded absentmindedly.
"There are still soldiers in this world who can compete with heroes? It's a pity that such a genius actually fell into the hands of Shu. The corners of Cao Cao's mouth hooked up a meaningful smile, he turned his head, glanced at Diao Chan, who was still lonely, and put away his smile.
"When I hired you, this king never had direct contact with that person, but this king knows that for a person with ambition and responsibility in his heart, even the closest person can't stop him from wanting to realize his ambitions, Diao Chan, do you understand what this king said?"
Diao Chan raised his face and looked at the blood lord in front of him with a complicated expression.
Cao Cao looked at the canyon in the distance and said meaningfully: "Everything in the world has its predestined trajectory and ending, and some things, even if they are forced, are destined to be in vain." ”
The words made Diao Chan burst into tears.
"The concubine is tired, this war, the concubine doesn't want to fight anymore......"
Cao Cao nodded, he understood that this woman who was physically and mentally exhausted had already lost her fighting spirit at this moment.
"This king will order the army to withdraw to Luoyang later."
"Thank you, King Wei." Diao Chan bowed slightly, and immediately turned around and left.
"Diao Chan." Behind her, Cao Cao stopped her.
"This king started such a war, lost thousands of troops, and even destroyed a defense tower, just to help you get back a person, although the result is not satisfactory, but this king still hopes that you will not forget the promise you made before coming to the canyon."
Diao Chan was silent.
It's all just a deal.
Cao Cao looked at the stunning woman in front of him, and under his silent expression, his heart was already throbbing.
For a long time, Cao Cao has been longing to get Diao Chan all the time, not only because Diao Chan is a mage hero who is enough to compete with Zhuge Liang of the Shu Kingdom, but also because Lu Bu has been infatuated with this beautiful woman.
The unparalleled demon of the Three Kingdoms has always been arrogant and reckless, and he has never tolerated anyone in his eyes, not even some of Cao Cao's orders, but such a man unexpectedly listened to Diao Chan's words very much.
In other words, as long as you can get Diao Chan, it is equivalent to getting the shackles that control Lu Bu!
However, no matter how much jewelry and jade Cao Cao sent, and how much treatment he gave to him comparable to that of the royal family, he was never able to impress Diao Chan, and he was always politely rejected by Diao Chan.
But all this took a turn for the better a month ago.
Cao Cao learned a certain news by chance, this woman who made him dream of has been looking for someone in private, and this person seems to be a small soldier in Shu!
Cao Cao knew that the Wei State and the Shu State were separated by 100,000 demon seed mountains, and the road was far and dangerous, and few people could cross it, and the only shortcut between the two countries was the canyon battlefield.
So, Cao Cao, who was very deep in the city, deliberately revealed the news to Diao Chan, and Diao Chan, who was eager to find his sweetheart, also made an agreement with Cao Cao logically.
Now, the time has finally come to fulfill the promise!
"Dancing girl Diao Chan, willing to be loyal to the command of King Wei."
The woman who overwhelmed the Three Kingdoms bowed her head and half-knelt in front of the blood hero.
Cao Cao smiled.
The deep and long laughter slowly spread throughout the canyon red with the sea of blood.
What's the point of losing a war?
Thousands of troops are easy to obtain, but one general is hard to find.
A war bought him the loyalty of two heroes with unworthy bravery.
How fast!
What you want has been obtained.
This war.
That's it.
The blood lord looked back, put his hands behind his back, and once again looked at the battlefield of the canyon filled with gunpowder, his Danfeng eyes, which were as sharp as swords, glowed with a strange dark red light.
The next time we fight again, it will be when the mountains and rivers are broken!!
——————————————————————
It's a long way to go.
A thick black dot moved slowly.
Zhao Yun carried Wang Yao on his back and walked towards Shu step by step.
It's not that Zhao Yun's injury is minor, it's really because Wang Yao's injury is so serious that he doesn't even have the strength to walk.
In order to prevent Lu Bu from returning with the Black Armor Army, Zhao Yun could only carry Wang Yao back on his back.
Along the way, the two of them were very silent with tacit understanding, and after this time they fought side by side, the two had a certain understanding of each other, but it was only a superficial understanding.
Wang Yao "knows" that Zhao Yun is a hero. (Actually, I already knew)
Zhao Yun also felt that Wang Yao was not an ordinary soldier.
That's all.
The two sides are still not at the point where they can reassure themselves.
It's like two people playing chess against each other, although they have a rough idea of each other's strength, neither of them will take the initiative to expose their chess routes and plans.
It wasn't until he withdrew from the enemy's range and was about to be separated from the troops that Zhao Yun muttered, "I hope you can keep it secret for me." ”
"I will." Wang Yao was straightforward.
Zhao Yun tilted his head slightly and glanced strangely at the little soldier lying on his shoulder.
For Zhao Yun, this little soldier is too amazing, normally speaking, if a little soldier knows his true identity, then he can't go back and spread it to the world?
But this little soldier accepted his request almost without thinking about it, as if he had long been surprised by his true identity!
And what shocked Zhao Yun even more was that when he fought with Lu Bu, the little soldier's unusual performance.
Not only did he suffer several of Lu Bu's skills without dying, but he could even perfectly match his skills to repeatedly repel Lu Bu with heavy blows, if it weren't for Diao Chan coming over, I'm afraid the two of them could really kill the first tank hero of the Three Kingdoms!
Under the sky, is there such a creep?
Thinking of this, Zhao Yun couldn't help but ask tentatively: "I can feel an unusual aura on your body, could it be that you are too...... Hero? ”
"Don't get me wrong, I'm not a hero, I'm just an ordinary creep."
Wang Yao smiled: "Lao Zhao, you can't be so cunning, you want to trick me, should you explain to me first, what do you want to do with a hero pretending to be a small soldier?" And that terrible organization you are talking about, what is it exactly? ”
Zhao Yun twisted his head and was speechless.
He suddenly understood a little why Lu Bu would target this little soldier so much.
didn't answer the question, just turned against the customer directly, and asked a bunch of point-to-point questions, this guy is indeed a bit annoying!
Looking at Zhao Yun, who was silent again, Wang Yao didn't care, anyway, he wasn't in a hurry, but he was very interested in the matter between Zhao Yun and Diao Chan.
"Then you can always tell me how you met that beautiful woman just now, right?" Wang Yao asked.
Zhao Yun hesitated for a moment, as if he felt that these things could not implicate some of his secrets, so he began to talk eloquently.
"I have known her since I was a child, we are both war orphans, when the Three Kingdoms were not yet established, the world was in turmoil, and our parents died in the war, and later, by chance, we met, probably because each other was lonely, so it was natural to be together."
Zhao Yunbanzheng's face showed a rare trace of tenderness: "That girl, I like to follow my ass since I was a child, and we have done a lot of things together that I think are funny in retrospect, but at that time, it was not easy for the two children to survive in the troubled times, so we later went to be mercenaries together, and we also met another companion by mistake and teamed up with that companion." ”
Zhao Yunwei's blue eyes fell into confusion, like a down-and-out man who was remembering his youth: "Later, the reputation of the three of us began to spread far and wide, and we also had a lot of followers, and after the efforts of the three of us, in just three years, our team slowly began to grow, and finally became the leading mercenary army of that era, during that period, even some of the warlord forces on one side would pay a high price to invite us to fight for them......"
Speaking of this, Zhao Yun suddenly stopped. Wang Yao, who was fascinated by what he was hearing, couldn't help but urge: "Keep talking!" ”
"I can't tell you what happened next." Zhao Yun said lightly.
Wang Yao: "...... Lao Zhao, are you so interesting? ”
Zhao Yun ignored Wang Yao, who was full of black lines, and continued: "In short, our mercenary group was disbanded later, and it was at that time that I learned a certain terrible 'truth', in order to confirm whether this truth really exists, so I came to Shu Kingdom." ”
The truth?
Wang Yao heard it in a fog, but just when Wang Yao hesitated to try to ask even if Zhao Yun couldn't say it, a call suddenly came from ahead.
"Brother Yao! I've finally waited you back! ”
Wang Yao looked up, but it was a thousand-commander.
After returning from hell and seeing the commander again, Wang Yao never thought the commander's cold face was so cute.
"Centurion, it's a pleasure to see you again!" Wang Yao said hello.
It seems that not only Wang Yao is happy, but the commander is also happy.
"What are you so happy about? You look like you've picked up a pile of gold coins. Wang Yao looked at the dancing commander with amusement.
"Of course I'm happy!" The commander smiled and blushed: "Tell you, the army of Wei has retreated, and this war is won by our Shu State!" ”
"Victory?!"
The news came too suddenly, and Wang Yao looked at the elated commander in surprise on Zhao Yun's shoulder.
What the heck?
Is this Victory?
Not to mention the enemy's crystal base, even the enemy's highland defense tower hasn't been knocked down yet!
The enemy heroes collectively launched a surrender but failed?!
