Chapter 107: Concealment
"This ...... How so? ”
Cao Cao watched as Cao Chun was dragged off by Lin Mu's head.
His face was full of horror, and some of his men could do it, but they wouldn't.
A person's means of killing people largely represent the person's character.
And Lin Mu's killing methods were so bloody and brutal that everyone felt shudder.
After Cao Cao saw this scene, although he knew that Lin Mu was not dragging his neck, he couldn't help but take half a step back and cover his neck with his hand.
He felt what seemed to be a chill in his neck.
Guo Jia's face was even more pale and powerless at this time, he couldn't believe how someone could pull someone's head down directly.
Guo Jia is the Yang Zhai Guo family of the Yingchuan family, although it is not as good as the top wealthy family like the Xun family and the Chen family, but it is not a poor family.
When he was dormant, he intersected with Xun Yu and others, and he had been living in seclusion as a scholar in Yingchuan, so in fact, Guo Jia had not really been in the battle in person.
"Why is the lord so embarrassed?"
His plan is indeed almost perfect, if anyone else comes here, I am afraid that it will be planted in Guo Jia's hands.
Cao Cao said a few yes in a row, but in the end he didn't say it.
Cao Cao was originally full of confidence, but now he has no confidence.
Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai nodded and said no more.
The cruelty of the Son of Heaven seemed to them to be the premise of bravery.
"The defeat in this battle is all because of me, and I ask the lord to surrender."
Cao Cao hurriedly came to the bottom of the mountain, mounted his war horse, and began to rush in the direction of Pengcheng.
This war was lost because no one thought that the Son of Heaven would be so strong.
No matter how elite Cao Cao's army is, where can it compare to today's imperial army?
Seeing that the forest trees were so killed in the imperial army, they all began to learn how to kill the trees.
The killing became more and more bloody, and Guo Jia saw with his own eyes that a soldier wanted to learn from Lin Mu to pull someone else's head off, but because of his lack of strength, he just dragged the scalp off.
Guo Jia looked at the cavalry standing in front of the Son of Heaven, and the best end was also shattered.
The imperial army was like a bamboo, and he had lost one after another, if he said it.
The number was so large that even Cao Cao himself did not dare to check it, so he could only burn these letters in public to show that he was not guilty of the past.
"This battle is not your sin, your strategy is already the best in the world, but ...... Just ......"
At this time, he remembered the army of the Qin Dynasty, and the Great Qin soldiers would cut off the heads of the enemies they had killed and tie them around their waists with ropes.
Brutality towards the enemy is their way of showing reverence to the Son of Heaven.
Cao Cao looked at his elite army, which was so easily dispersed.
Cao Cao sighed and said.
After saying that, Cao Cao mounted his war horse and began to gallop towards Pengcheng.
I couldn't help but vomit, it was too bloody.
His tens of thousands of cavalry were completely submerged by this tidal army.
And it's something that no one expected.
While walking, he said to Xi Zhicai.
He didn't say anything immediately, just took everyone away, didn't ask anything, didn't say anything.
But even so, it can't compare to the brutality of this army.
This is not the reason for the inaccurate plan at all, it is just because the Son of Heaven is too strong.
Therefore, he could not tell the truth, but could only pretend that he didn't care.
Even if he didn't know the Son of Heaven, he was afraid that he wouldn't be much better than the Xiahou brothers and his brothers.
Whether it is to invest in Yuan Shu in the south, or to invest in Yuan Shao, or even to take refuge in Liu Biao, he is much stronger than him.
Even if he can live, thinking of this, Cao Cao turned his head sideways and glanced at Guo Jia who was following him.
As the son of the Han Dynasty, he actually led the troops to charge, and he still has such strength.
Here today, if it weren't for Guo Jia's strategy, I'm afraid he would have lost even more.
The bloody killing of the Son of Heaven seemed to them like a kind of faith.
But there are some things that need to be asked clearly.
And what frightened Cao Cao even more was that the army of the imperial court was actually coming towards him.
The Qin army was brutal only for military merit, and the army of the imperial court at this time was only because they wanted to follow the Son of Heaven.
He didn't want to stay here for a moment, and Lin Mu's cruel methods made Cao Cao shudder.
"It's just a small defeat, and it's okay to be in the situation."
I couldn't help but feel a tingling in my scalp.
Not only is the morale of the soldiers low, but I am afraid that these big families who have defected to themselves will also start to invest in others.
Now Cao Cao has suffered a big loss at the hands of the imperial court, and if Cao Cao says it, it will only make the morale of the army at the juncture of the big war even lower.
The group fled all the way back to Pengcheng, and then sat inside the city gate and gasped.
As Cao Cao's chief strategist, Xun Yu naturally knew why Cao Cao went.
In the end, it was Xi Zhi who spoke first.
As soon as he ran, several heads swayed around his waist.
At the same time, he finally understood why Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan were planted in the hands of the Son of Heaven.
I saw Guo Jia riding a horse while trembling and pouring wine into his mouth.
Cao Cao paused and said.
"My lord, I thought I had arranged for someone to settle the soldiers who fled back outside Pengcheng, and the people in Pengcheng knew that we were defeated, but they didn't know the specific situation yet."
Cao Cao waved his hand.
The glimmer of joy in my heart was instantly replaced by panic.
just continued to silently do his part to settle the rear for Cao Cao.
Wanted to say something, but quickly shut up.
Although he knows the situation in the world and has his own understanding of the battle array, he has never really been on the battlefield.
In Cao Cao's private house, Cao Cao and Guo Jia sat opposite each other, silent.
At this moment, Xun Yu came to Cao Cao with a group of people.
These strategists are not desperate to follow Cao Cao, they are just diversifying their investments.
"That's good, but it's not a long-term solution."
"It's nothing, it's just a little bit of an accident that the tyrant seized a little opportunity and suffered a small loss, not in the way."
"Ordered Lejin Xu Huang to withdraw his troops! Quickly give the order and let them withdraw directly to Pengcheng. ”
The most important thing is that he met Lin Mu as soon as he was born, and such a brutal killing was unimaginable to Guo Jia.
Now seeing Cao Cao rushing back to Pengcheng on horseback so dejected, a bad feeling rose in his heart.
But what shocked everyone was that the Son of Heaven had such a ability.
You must know that when Cao Cao and Yuan Shao fought the battle of Guandu later, many Cao Cao's people wrote letters to Yuan Shao.
Guo Jia had also recovered at this time.
Cao Cao said to the people around him while smiling.
After Cao Cao turned his head, he found that it was Xun Yu and a group of strategists.
Xun Yu watched Cao Cao get up and leave, with a hint of thoughtfulness in his eyes.
Cao Cao looked in the direction of Xiao County in the distance, and a trace of fear flashed in his heart.
