Chapter 628: The Price of Blood? Oh, I'm not going to allow that—

- Xu Chu is really dead!

When the messenger trembled, and his jaw was fixed again.

No matter how many doubts Cao's manipulation is, no matter how many impossibilities are groaned out of his mouth, at this moment... It doesn't make any sense anymore!

"Xu Chu, the lonely tiger marquis, he... Is he really dead? ”

When Cao Cao chanted this sentence, the scene that flashed in his eyes was the story of him and Xu Chu.

That pile, one by one, the story between their master and servant.

It was the defeat of Chibi, Xu Chu was the most sad, he couldn't stop crying, but Cao Cao walked in front of Xu Chu.

He comforted Xu Chu like a child.

- "A dignified man, a sonorous tiger general, bleeding without tears, victory and defeat are common things in soldiers!" Xu Chu, go... Drum up the tent! ”

This is the most tender time in Cao Cao's life...

But Xu Chu cried even more.

- "Prime Minister, all 3,000 of my brothers are dead! I... I can't live with them! I'm sorry for the Prime Minister! ”

Xu Chu's tears couldn't stop flowing, but Cao Cao dragged him to his side, supporting his chest with both hands.

His tone became more and more urgent, "Aren't you still alive?" You are alive, I can wake up laughing in my dreams, what is the death of 3,000 soldiers? I'll give you another 30,000! ”

Speaking of this, Cao Cao stared at Xu Chu with the most stern eyes, but said the most gentle words in his mouth, "Laugh one, laugh—"

Xu Chu smiled, Cao Cao also smiled, but... Xu Chu's smile is more ugly than crying.

This scene flashed by...

Full of warmth after defeat.

In the next picture, it was Xu Chu who threw a bloody Linlin's head to Cao Cao in the court.

"Xu Yu insulted the lord in public, I ordered him to stop, this kid actually stuck his head over and asked me to cut him, if I don't cut him, I will become his grandson, I cut off this dog's head in a fit of anger!"

Cao Cao especially remembered that this was after the capture of Yecheng... After Xu Chu angrily beheaded Xu You, he swore to inform him.

Then... Hearing Xu Chu's words, Cao Cao was shocked, and he said with a cold mouth, "You cut Xu You... Xu You has been my friend for many years, let's break Yuan Shao to take Jizhou, he made the first contribution, and you cut him down? It's the other way around, it's the other way around... Come on, give Xu Chu to me to quit and behead the public! ”

The most cruel words are spoken.

But Cao Cao was thinking in his heart.

- "Zhongkang, Zhongkang, you cut well, you did what I wanted to do but didn't dare to do!" But... Xu You is a hero, and I can't help but punish you! Don't worry, someone will intercede for you, where is Lone willing to cut you? I'm going to love you to death!'

When this image came again, it was as if... Xu Chu's appearance, his voice and smile appeared in front of him, as if embedded in his mind.

He seemed to hear Xu Chu's dying cry, which was about to reach his Cao Cao's ears:

- "Die on the battlefield, die under Guan Yunchang's Qinglong knife, happy! Joyfully! Hahaha..."

- "King, the last general really did his best! I only hate that the last will die, and I can no longer protect the king's safety!"

- "Have you escaped from Luoyang, my lord?" If he escapes, in the end, Chu will keep the king safe!"

These voices in the dark reached Cao Cao's ears one by one.

Tears, like beads of broken threads, slipped from the corners of the eyes of this generation of heroes and dripped on the cold ground.

Cao Cao's crying voice gradually changed from a low whimper at the beginning to a hoarse cry.

"Lonely tiger idiot, you and I have been fighting side by side for many years, you are like my arm, how can you leave me now? How could you not break through? ”

Cao Cao's voice echoed with endless sorrow on this silent official road.

At this moment, he not only lost a loyal brave general, but also lost the comradeship, master and servant affection for twenty years!

The surrounding soldiers couldn't help but reddened their eyes when they saw Cao Cao crying so out of shape.

They knew what kind of blow Xu Chu's death was to Cao Cao.

It was a mountain in his heart, a solid stone on which he could sleep.

Now this mountain, this rock... Collapsed with a bang.

King... I'm afraid I'm going to kill someone in my dream again!

"King..."Cheng Yu's expression was also very solemn, he looked back in the direction of Luoyang City again and again, and then persuaded earnestly: "People can't be resurrected after death, if the king can't cheer up and can't escape from here, then... Then the tiger marquis died in vain! Dead in vain! ”

With Cheng Yu's words, the surrounding guards all bowed their hands and persuaded in unison:

"The King's Day mourns, the King should cheer up—"

At this moment, the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on Cao Cao's body, stretching his figure very long.

After experiencing confusion, helplessness, sadness, sentimentality, memories...

His sobs faded into a long sigh.

He slowly stood up, a look of determination flashing in his eyes again.

Oh, yes...

Even if he loses Xu Chu, he must continue to move forward!

Xu Chu died unexpectedly and reasonably...

Cheng Yu is right, if you can't escape from here, then... The tiger marquis died in vain!

"Off... Close four! ”

Groaning out this familiar name fiercely, Cao Cao turned his head fiercely, "Go... Let's go, retreat to Guanzhong! Retreat to Chang'an, one day, what Gu lost today will be returned tenfold! ”

"Guan Si, hmph, Lone will come back sooner or later-"

With this last "cruel word", Cao Cao turned over again, and this team that exchanged the lives of Xu Chu and countless tiger soldiers for a glimmer of life embarked on the journey again.

With hatred, with unwillingness, with deep resentment.

But their backs, in the afterglow of the setting sun, seem more and more lonely and determined.

At the foot of the mountain in the north, along the mountain road of two or three miles, countless people fought together.

Killing the red-eyed Wei soldiers, they frantically swung the spears and swords in their hands towards the Taishan army in front of them.

And whether it is the Taishan Army or Zang Ba, it is obvious that they have realized that whether it is the Wei Army or Xiahou Xuan, they are already at the end of their crossbows.

Maybe at the beginning, Xiahoudun still had a chance to escape, but now... Huh, run? Where else could he run?

The great general of Great Wei was destined to be crucified here with the remnants of his army.

More and more Taishan troops surrounded them, they were well-trained, every time the Wei soldiers wanted to break through, they would form a shield formation, to defend as an attack, and when the Wei soldiers from the breakthrough again and again after the defeat and retreat, they would unload the shield array, all kinds of blades waved up... Give them a fatal blow.

Taishan Army... This army inherited part of the wolf cavalry of Lu Bu and Zhou, and the soldiers of Gao Shun's fallen camp, they were not afraid of Cao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry when they were young, and now... It's just a blind one... A general who has never won a war and has never stopped being promoted?

- It's not too easy!

On the contrary, for Xiahoudun, words such as precarious and dangerous filled his cheeks.

Even if he can't see it, he can feel it... The erosion of the war situation here.

If you continue to fight like this, you will be destroyed sooner or later!

"Resist, resist—"

"Array, rush up, break out, break out—"

He was constantly screaming, making his last orders.

At this moment, he can no longer care about the death of his son Xiahou Zijiang, he doesn't even know... Son Xiahou Zijiang, where is he now?

Think about it...

Just two days ago, this Luoyang City was still holding a celebration of New Year's Day.

The eldest brother Cao Cao also feasted the military generals of Wenchen;

The flying balls in Beibi Mountain are being made at an incredible speed, and even the fire that burned Fancheng is... It was also transported to Beibi Mountain.

All... All seem to be moving in a positive direction.

But who would have thought... It was just a change of one night, first the fire in Beibi Mountain, and all the flying balls were destroyed...

Then there was the Luoyang fire, and then ... Be... The fire in the Han Palace, the attack on the Wei Palace, the flying ball of the Jingzhou Army, and the ... It was the fall of Luoyang City, and now even ... Even the Taishan army openly rebelled -

Even a martial artist like Xiahoudun could understand at this moment that there was a hint of mockery and sharpness passing through his pale cheeks.

Hehe, yes...

A rebel son of the Guan family, thousands of miles away in Jingzhou, but this bureau of his cloth is simply seamless, and it is simply unpredictable...

Overnight, the whole Luoyang...

Let the Great Wei be destroyed in Luoyang!

Thinking of this... After Xiahoudun commanded, he couldn't help but sigh.

"The rebel son of the Guan family, it's really powerful-"

At this moment, in Luoyang City, on the official road leading to the north gate.

"Newspaper... Mr. Li, the king did not take the secret passage, but evacuated from the West City Gate, and the exit of the secret passage was Guan Yu and Guan Jiajun... General Xu Chu has died in battle! ”

Not...

The news came out, and I didn't wait for Li Cong to come back to his senses...

A second message has followed.

"Newspaper, ideal... At the foot of the mountain in the north, it was discovered that the Taishan army and General Xiahou were fighting together, and the battle situation was rotten, and General Xiahou was almost wiped out..."

Not... This...

What the school government is best at is collecting information, and when these two pieces of information pass through the mouth of the school office... When it reached Li Cong's ears, he couldn't help but hold his breath, frowning slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

Let's start with the first one...

He Li Liang suddenly realized that he was calculated by Cao Cao, no... To be precise, Guan Lin was calculated by Cao Cao!

Cao Cao didn't take the secret road, but chose to take the risk of breaking through to the West Gate?

This...

is worthy of being a traitorous male, a suspicious traitorous male, let everyone evacuate from the north gate, and let Xu Chu and Hu Benjun be the introduction, but he repaired the plank road and secretly Chen Cang... Such a calculation, don't say it's Guan Lin... Who would have thought?

Because the times are urgent...

Therefore, Li Cong almost didn't pause, and his thoughts quickly shifted from Cao Cao's body to Xiahoudun's body...

Nature...

Compared with Cao Cao's evacuation, Xiahoudun was almost completely wiped out, and this information is undoubtedly more urgent...

And when this piece of news came, there were only two options left for him Li Cong:

- Save? Or not save?

But... Here's the problem...

Li Yan must weigh carefully, Xiahou is dead, is it a pros or cons to the deployment and calculation of the entire Cao Wei and the entire Cloud Banner?

Actually, this question is very simple, if it weren't for him Li Xuan, then Xiahoudun would undoubtedly be... Damn it, damn it!

Killing a big general of the enemy is still quite important for the morale of the officers and men of the three armies!

Li Lian even... There will be no hesitation...

But just that, Li contempt... In his opinion...

The most trusted thing in the entire Cao Wei is this great general of Great Wei!

Not to mention, as long as Li Yan returns to Cao Wei and continues to maintain this "undercover" identity, he needs Xiahoudun's support and this unique trust.

Alone... Considering the "tunnel" leading to the outside of the city, it inevitably gave Cao Cao the suspicion.

In Li Ming's opinion, it seems that he wants to save Xiahoudun, at least this rescue is enough for him to clear up some suspicions.

Thinking of this, Li Cong waved his hand slightly, and was ready to make a decision...

- Save! Still saved!

But at this moment...

"Report! Mr. Li..."Another lieutenant hurriedly came, knelt down on one knee in front of Li Cong, and reported: "General Li Dian's soldiers and horses have been found outside the North City Gate, and they have been supporting General Xiahou... There is also General Xu Huang, we have already reported to him, saying that the king has an order... All the Wei troops withdrew to the North City Gate... And he hurried over there—"

Not... This...

Li Li's eyes rolled, and soon, his eyes froze and narrowed.

- "If Xu Huang and Li Dian see that I sacrificed my life to save Xiahoudun, then... Then the two of them, come like this... Isn't it God who assists?'

Thinking of this, he couldn't wait to order: "The form is so strict, what are you doing in a daze?" Fast... Hurry to the North City Gate, hurry... Go and save General Xiahou—"

Oh, yes...

Don't you have to hurry!

First, he wanted to persuade Zang Ba to retreat and prevent Zang Ba from falling into a heavy encirclement under the attack of Xu Huang, Li Dian and Xiahoudun.

The two, this god-on-the-sky assist, he Li despise... Gotta catch it!

"Quick... Fast... Hurry up, hurry—"

At this moment, Li Yan's voice was about to cry hoarse, if Xiahoudun's persistence was precarious and imminent, then... At this moment, Li Ming's help is not allowed to be sent, and it is a thousand shots!

"How's it going?"

In the Wei Palace, a weak female voice with a bit of crisp taste came from the Taiji Hall, the original hall of Cao Cao.

It's a Lingju...

At the moment, she is being bandaged by several "parrot" healers, applying herbs to the wound area, but she... is still concerned about the situation of the entire Luoyang City, and is concerned about the battlefield that is far away in the sky and close in front of you.

This is the third time she has asked the dead man in white beside her...

And the dead man in white has just gotten the information.

hurriedly reported it truthfully to Lingju.

"Miss Wen... General Guan has already led the Guan army into the city... Officially took over the city defense of Luoyang City, but... It's a pity... It seems that the Cao thief did not take the secret passage of the north gate, but retreated from the secret passage under the pretense of the anti-Wei tiger idiot Xu Chu and the tiger army... Stalling for time, in order to... Help this thief evacuate from elsewhere! But... Fortunately, the tiger idiot Xu Chu, who hit Miss Wen hard, was pierced by General Guan's Qinglong knife, and died a tragic death... It can be regarded as General Guan's fierce breath for the girl! ”

The parrot's information was unpleasant... But it's accurate.

But... So far, the parrot has not found out, where is Cao Cao now? Didn't take the secret passage? So... Where did he go?

Call...

Hearing that Cao Cao was not dead, Lingju still felt a trace of regret, she shook her head helplessly, and said softly:

"It's a pity..."

However, in just a moment, Lingju's expression turned back from regret and helplessness, and she said with a happy expression: "But it's okay, at least... Finished the tiger idiot around Cao Cao, like this... If there is an assassination operation in the future, I am afraid it will be a lot easier! ”

Oh, yes...

Whether it's a surprise attack or an assassination... For Lingju, it made her realize that Cao Cao... Or in other words, the impregnable defense is not invulnerable, at least under Guan Lin's calculations, the flaws leak one after another, and these flaws are like cracks in the earth, constantly spreading... The entire protection of the reverse Wei, under Guan Lin's design, became full of holes overnight.

Not this time, then... Just next time!

Cao Cao has only one Xu Chu, but Guan Lin... But there are countless calculations! Countless times to break the protection of the reverse Wei!

Thinking about this verse, Lingju's mood is like seeing the sun from the clouds.

But this "day" hasn't been out for long...

"Miss Wen...", a dead man in white came running quickly, "Oh no... General Zang Ba's Taishan army surrounded Xiahoudun's soldiers and horses..."

Not...

Zang Ba surrounded Xiahoudun?

Lingju pondered, isn't this good?

Xiahoudun is the general of the Great Wei, strictly speaking, this is the second person in the Great Wei, even if he didn't kill Cao Cao, he could kill him... It is also conducive to the great shock of the morale of the Guan family's army!

Lingju was still wondering, how could this brother say "no"?

Before she could figure it out...

The next words of the white-clothed dead man directly made Lingju's mood fall to the bottom.

"Li Lian took the school office, Xu Huang... Li Dian took his soldiers and horses to the north of the mountain to support... There is also an army that has just entered Luoyang City when he hears about the changes in the rear, and also... He also turned his horse's head and galloped to the past..."

This...

Lingju didn't know that the so-called army that had just entered Luoyang City and turned his horse's head to gallop to help the past was Xiahou Zizang, the eldest son of Xiahou Zang.

Can... Even if you ignore it.

That... Xu Huang, Li Dian...

The situation of Uncle Zang Ba and Taishan Army is also extremely dangerous!

The most critical question is not yet this...

With the words of the white-clothed dead man, Lingju's heart couldn't help but pull a name:

- Li Li!

That's right, as the leader of the parrot, how could Lingju not know the importance of Li Liang to Guan Lin's entire layout.

Can... How did he kill it? Also... Do you want to encircle and suppress Uncle Zang Ba?

Lingju didn't dare to think...

Because even if Li Cong didn't go to encircle and suppress Uncle Zang Ba, but to save him... That... Isn't that a leak?

Either way, it's not something she can accept!

"Oops..."

Lingju couldn't help frowning, her heart twitched suddenly, she stared at her eyebrows, and groaned heavily, "This big water... Why did it flood the Dragon King Temple? This... Which one is this? ”

With this in mind... Lingju got up suddenly, but he didn't think about it, and pulled directly to the wound.

"Ahh

With a groan of pain, she only felt all over her body... It's all like it's shattered, and the icicle cone... Piercing pain.

"Miss Wen..."

"You," Lingju couldn't help but gasp, "you go for me, and the soldiers are divided into two ways... All the way to Uncle Zang, all the way... Go see General Guan—"

A look of pain appeared on Lingju's pale cheeks.

At this moment, even if she spoke, she seemed to be in great pain, as if she had exhausted all her strength.

Here, Lingju was still struggling to command his subordinates beside him.

On the other side, three miles away from the North Mountain, there is a gravel pile...

The carriage stopped there...

And the person in the carriage, the blackened Ma Jun was being picked up by Guan Xing with one hand, like an eagle catching a chicken.

"Hehe..."

Guan Xing showed an evil smile from time to time, like relief when the task was completed-

On the other hand, Ma Jun, who didn't know martial arts in the first place, was weak and powerless at the moment because of the double setback physically and mentally, he could only look at Guan Xing, but he couldn't do anything.

Finally... When he saw Guan Xing wipe his face with water, he suddenly thought of something...

It's him!

It's him!

The demon who killed his wife, Cao Ying... It is... It's the person in front of you.

"Ahh It's you—" Ma Jun roared hysterically.

It's just that at this time, Guan Xing had already pulled out a dagger from his back, "You recognize me?" Well, today... You and your lady will meet under the Nine Springs! ”

accompanied by Guan Xing's cold words.

An even colder saber slowly sank into his chest under Ma Jun's gaze...

"Ahh Ahh

Because Guan Xing was covering Ma Jun's mouth.

So... Even if Ma Jun died, he couldn't let out any loud wails, which... It's the most cruel way to die!

On the other hand, Guan Xing, after completing this mission, he drew back the dagger and made up two more knives at the critical point... After doing this, he wiped the blood stains on Ma Jun's robe... At this time, he opened his mouth lightly and coldly.

"You want my fourth brother to pay the price of blood?"

"Hehe, as his second brother, me! Break off! No! Allow! Xu—"
