Chapter 79: Your Wife and Daughter (Ask for Follow-up, Ask for a Monthly Pass)
"Xiao Zhaoji, the teacher knows that you have just experienced the pain of losing your husband, and it is very uncomfortable."
"Teacher, I actually don't feel that bad." Cai Zhaoji whispered.
I haven't met, I don't even know my name, so I don't know if my father can break off the marriage.
"I know you're just pretending not to be, hiding the sadness in your heart, what a strong child." Su Chen touched Xiao Zhaoji's head with pity.
Cai Zhaoji shook her head, and the teacher went crazy again.
"Teacher, if you have anything, just tell me directly." Cai Zhaoji said helplessly.
Obviously, she is the teacher's disciple, why does she always feel like a sister accommodating the teacher?
"As the so-called son is worried, your two senior brothers are gone, and the teacher is still very worried about them. But the teacher can't bear to let your wife stay at home alone, so you should accompany your wife well. Su Chen said with a smile.
"Got it." Cai Zhaoji made a naughty grimace.
The teacher wants to go out to play by himself, so he says it directly, and he also pulls out a reason for worrying about his brother, which is slightly slightly ╭(╯^╰)╮.
"As a teacher, these three disciples, it is still Xiao Zhaoji, you are the most reassuring teacher."
……
"Meng De go quickly, I'm in ambush!"
The new dynasty has been established for many years, and there are many contradictions with neighboring countries.
After all, no country likes a country that is expanding around, especially if it's your neighbor.
The Rest Empire was a powerful empire near the Western Regions Protectorate, and was currently the main belligerent of the New Dynasty in the west.
Cao Cao joined the army at a young age and aspired to become a famous general like Su Chen, the general of the expedition to the west.
It's just that the road to becoming a famous general is destined to be bumpy, and this time he followed the commander to attack a city in the Rest Empire, but he didn't expect to be ambushed halfway.
The army suffered heavy casualties, and even the lieutenant was hit by several arrows and looked like he wanted to explain what was going on.
"Captain Chu holds on for a while, and in front of us is our camp. When they reached the vicinity of the camp, the pursuers did not dare to pursue. Cao Cao said to Captain Chu on his horseback.
Twenty-year-old Cao Cao has the righteousness of a teenager and is unwilling to abandon his comrades-in-arms.
"Don't worry about me, even if I get rid of these pursuers, I won't be able to go back." Captain Chu said with difficulty.
And where is the camp ahead, the camp is a day's journey away.
"Leave me here and run for your life alone."
"No, how can I abandon my comrades." Cao Cao said.
"If you take me with you, it is very likely that you will be caught up by the pursuers behind, throw me down and take the rest of the soldiers with you to escape, don't let me let you all be planted here." Captain Chu shouted loudly.
"My wife and daughter in my family will be taken care of by Meng De."
"Captain!"
"This is a military order!" Captain Chu stuffed a small wooden sword into Cao Cao's hand.
"This is my token, give this token to my wife, and she will naturally believe in you."
"I have written it down, if Cao can escape with his life, the wife and daughter of the captain will be my wife and daughter!" Cao Cao shouted to Captain Chu.
Captain Chu got Cao Cao's promise and jumped off his horse.
"You retreat with me, and wait for the future to avenge the Chu Duwei and the dead soldiers!" Cao Cao said to the remaining soldiers.
"Whoa!"
It's just that the people of the Rest Empire finally ambushed a group of troops of the New Dynasty, obviously not wanting to let them escape easily, and have been chasing after them.
From time to time, he also released cold arrows to harass them.
"Huh~!"
Cao Cao's horse was shot by a cold arrow from the rear and fell to the ground.
The pursuers of the Rest Empire quickly came to Cao Cao's side, brandishing the knife in his hand and slashing at Cao Cao's body.
Cao Cao looked desperate.
My life is resting, Captain Chu can't take care of your wife and daughter anymore!
When he was about to die, Cao Cao saw a sword appear in front of him, and it looked like a long sword of the new dynasty.
"Ding!"
With a stroke of the long sword, the soldiers of the Sabbatical Empire who slashed at Cao Cao flew out with knives.
"Huh?"
Before Cao Cao could react, he was dragged onto the horse, and the whole person was lying on the horse's back, like a little lady who had just been robbed by bandits.
Cao Cao glanced up at the person who rescued him.
At first glance, he was shocked, and the person who saved himself looked handsome.
It's the kind of feeling of looking at himself in the mirror, and it's like a distance, but Cao Cao doesn't have much heart to look at the appearance of his life-saving benefactor.
Because they are still under siege, they will be cut down under their horses if they are not careful.
It's just that Cao Cao gradually felt that something was wrong, why did his life-saving benefactor kill so quickly.
In the blink of an eye, there was already a pile of corpses piled up under the horse.
After Cao Cao was shot down, many of the soldiers who fled with him also stopped to rescue Cao Cao.
When they saw that Cao Cao was saved by someone they didn't know, and then that person killed the people of the Rest Empire like killing chickens, they all went back to besiege and kill the soldiers of the Rest Empire.
There were seven or eight hundred people in the Anxi Empire that came to pursue, while Cao Cao and the rest of the soldiers were only two hundred, and the enemy was several times as many as his own soldiers.
But after fighting, it was found that the soldiers of the Rest Empire had suffered heavy casualties and had fled.
"Thank you brother for the rescue!"
Cao Cao got off his horse and thanked Su Chen.
"No thanks, they are all people of the new dynasty, and they naturally can't ignore it when they see it." Su Chen waved his hand and said.
"Then I don't know the name of Brother Tai, which team is it?" Cao Cao asked.
"Su Chen, he didn't join the army, he should be regarded as a ranger."
"Su Chen? Could it be that Brother Tai is the descendant of the long-lived Hou lineage? Cao Cao asked in surprise.
The popularity of the name Su Chen is too high, and the name in the new dynasty is still quite special, and generally people with the surname Su deliberately avoid this name.
Therefore, the surname Su is a big surname in the new dynasty, but there are still too few people named Su Chen.
As soon as he heard the name Su Chen, the first thing that came to mind was definitely the heir of the longevity of the Hou lineage.
"It's not." Su Chen thought for a while and said.
Since he had already given Lu Bu the identity of the heir of the longevity marquis, he didn't need to use it himself, so as not to bring unnecessary trouble to his dear son.
"Isn't it?"
Cao Cao didn't ask again.
I just don't understand why Su Chen said that he is a ranger, why should a ranger come here.
This is the battlefield of the war between the New Dynasty and the Rest Empire, and it is very far away from the Western Regions Protectorate, and there are not many people from the New Dynasty here.
Su Chen is a ranger, even if he is skilled, but it is still very dangerous here.
"Brother Su Chen, where are you going, do you want to go with us?" Cao Cao asked.
Cao Cao and the others had just been defeated, and they were definitely going to return to the camp. If Su Chen went in the same direction, he could go together, which would be safer.
