Cao Xijin closed his eyes and took a deep breath, he felt the approach of death. He knew that death was coming, but he couldn't do anything but wait, and this taste made him crazy.

Li Ye would have been able to capture Bozhou City early in the morning, but he wanted to let him go, and even used him as bait to catch more Wei Bojun...... This kind of behavior is really hateful, and it makes Cao Xijin completely lose his dignity. As the leading general, he was humiliated to the extreme.

Cao Xijin opened his eyes suddenly, pointed at Li Ye in mid-air, and scolded this enemy of life and death: "Li Ye, you chaotic minister and thief, even if you capture my Bozhou today, my father will avenge me in the future! If you go against the grain and start a war in vain, you will definitely die! I have the help of the king of Longxi County in Weizhou, and you can't win! If you know each other, hurry back to Pinglu ......."

Cao Xijin's voice stopped abruptly, the phantom in front of him flashed, and then, he felt a lightness all over, and the object in front of him quickly retreated. It turned out that he had been grabbed by Li Ye's neck and lifted into the air from the city!

"You...... You ......" Cao Xijin struggled desperately, but to no avail, and his face quickly turned blue and purple.

The soldiers of the Bozhou army at the head of the city were all shocked when they saw this scene.

Some monks wanted to rescue Cao Xijin, but looking at the height where Li Ye was, they were all powerless, and they couldn't go up to that position at all!

Li Ye glanced at Cao Xijin, his eyes were full of contempt: "Death is on the verge of death, and there is so much nonsense." What's the point of being quick to talk?"

"You...... You're going to die...... I'll wait for you to come and accompany me......" Cao Xijin struggled.

"Really?" Li Ye waved his sleeves, and suddenly the wind swept hundreds of steps at the head of the city, and the soldiers of the Bozhou Army at the head of the city were all blown under the city by the wind, and countless people died in the fall. The soldiers of the Pinglu Army took the opportunity to capture the city and launched a fierce attack on the unstable and frightened Bozhou defenders.

"Now, who is dead?" Li Ye's eyes were indifferent, "If you say a word, your people, your warriors, you lost your life in vain, do you think you call me a hero?" ”

Li Ye pinched Cao Xijin to the city, and threw him into the women's wall. The female wall collapsed, and the masonry covered Cao Xijin's body, he was stuck in the crack of the stone, his mouth kept vomiting blood, and his limbs were completely unable to move.

Cao Xijin stared at Li Ye deadly, "You bastard, dog thief......! Kill me!"

"You want to die? You don't say it, I say it. Li Ye looked down at Cao Xijin, without the slightest emotion in his eyes, "The envoy I sent to Weizhou was cut off by you? I'm not happy, someone has to pay. Someone!"

Zhao Poyu happened to be nearby, and when he heard this, he immediately rushed over, hugged his fists and said, "Military commander!"

"Find out all the Cao family members and children in the Bozhou garrison and bring them to the city. Li Ye ordered indifferently.

"Order!" Zhao Poyu took the order and left.

Cao Xijin's eyes showed a strong look of horror: "You...... What do you want to do?"

As a family of Jiedu envoys, the Cao family is naturally the largest family in Weizhou, and the status of the clansmen in Weibo is not ordinary.

"You'll find out soon. ”

The Pinglu army had already entered the city, the city gate had been opened, and the Bozhou army was either defeated or thrown in, and there were very few still resisting. It didn't take long for Zhao Poyu to send dozens of Cao family members over one after another, and there were different relatives here, but they were all Cao family blood.

When they saw Li Ye and knew that a catastrophe was coming, most of them hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed and begged for mercy. But there were also some hard-nosed ones, glaring angrily at Li Ye, but they were all tied, and there were also soldiers of the Pinglu Army standing with knives behind them, and they couldn't do anything.

Li Ye glanced at Cao Xijin: "If you dare to cut off the ears of my envoy, you should know what this means, and now is the time for you to pay the price." Chop off their ears and limbs for me!"

Hearing Li Ye's words, the faces of the Cao family changed, even if they were tough men, they were pale, sweating like rain, and they begged for mercy for a while.

Cao Xijin's eyes were prominent, his facial features were distorted, he struggled to stand up, and roared: "Li Ye, you bastard! You mad dog, you can't die well......"

Li Ye stepped on Cao Xijin's face, stepped him into the crack in the stone, stepped back his words, and sneered: "Wounding the envoy of the imperial court is like a rebellion, and Ling Chi should be executed and the nine clans punished." What is Ling Chi? Cutting a thousand knives and dying is for Ling Chi. Now you should understand, what kind of price will Wei Bojun pay for attacking my Pinglu army?"

Cao Xijin's face was covered with blood, but he couldn't speak, and could only let out a hoarse roar from his throat.

Screams rang out one after another, and under the hands of the officers and soldiers of the Pinglu Army, dozens of Cao family members were all cut off their ears and their hands and feet were cut off. Blood flowed all over the ground, and no matter how tough the man was, he also rolled in a pool of blood and howled, and half of them fainted.

Li Ye retracted his feet and glanced at these people, his face full of disgust: "All of them will be executed, and the corpses will be displayed in the city for three days." Let everyone in the world see what will happen if you support the army and respect yourself, commit rebellion, and disobey the majesty of the imperial court!"

"Order!"

Cao Xijin's face was no longer visible, his flesh and blood were blurred, and he roared: "Li Ye, if you are a man, you will kill me! You kill me, you bastard, there is a kind of you kill me!"

Li Ye smiled contemptuously: "Whether I am a man or not, whether there is a kind or not, you don't count." Haven't you figured it out yet? Now you're not as good as a dog. Someone came, cut off his ears, cut off his hands and feet, and sent him to Weizhou. I came to Weibo, but it was just a transit, and the Wei Bo army dared to attack my Pinglu army? Then let Cao Zhongming take a look at it, what is the result of opposing me!"

Speaking of this, Li Ye flicked his sleeves, flicked the dust, didn't bother to look at Cao Xijin, and walked away.

Behind him, Cao Xijin's irrepressible screams were heard.

......

Late at night, Cao Zhongming paced back and forth in the room, looking anxious and not sleepy at all. He is also a high-ranking person, a person who has experienced strong winds and waves, and he is not so uncalm in ordinary times. But this time it was different, the military report sent back by Cao Xijin made him restless.

When the 3,000 cavalry rushed into battle, they lost a quarter of the 10,000 cavalry, and the other party turned out to be a general of a soldier's family? How long has it been since there has been a general of a soldier's family? The last time the world knew about such a general was during the Anshi Rebellion.

Thousands of casualties, although Cao Zhongming's flesh hurts, he is not so out of shape, but the follow-up military report from Bozhou made Cao Zhongming feel shocked. In the face of the siege of the Pinglu army, the casualties of the Bozhou defenders were too great to be accepted.

Cao Zhongming knew that Bozhou City could not be defended, so he urgently ordered 50,000 soldiers to rush to help. Cao Xijin is his eldest son, and he is also the son with the best cultivation talent, and in the future, he will inherit the mantle and become the envoy of Wei Bojie! If Cao Xijin has any strengths and weaknesses, Cao Zhongming will not be able to bear it, and his wife will also fight with him.

"Newspaper! Military marshal, Bozhou military newspaper, 100,000 urgent!" The commander of the personal guards in the palace rushed to the courtyard with the military newspaper in hand. Cao Zhongming had already asked the commander of the guards to wait outside the city, and asked him to bring it back directly once he got the military report.

Cao Zhongming stepped out in one step, arrived in the courtyard, took the military newspaper and unfolded it, just glanced at it, he couldn't help but shake his body, his face changed greatly, "Bastard! Cao Jincheng, this rice bucket, was ambushed before he even arrived in Bozhou City! 50,000 troops, countless casualties! This kind of rice bucket, what do I want him to do?!"

Cao Jincheng is a number of generals under Cao Zhongming, and he sent the other party to rescue Bozhou City, so he naturally valued the other party. What I didn't expect was such bad news, for Cao Zhongming, this military report was tantamount to a bolt from the blue. Cao Jincheng didn't make it to Bozhou, so wouldn't Bozhou City?

"Pass on my commander's order, behead Cao Jincheng, and use the right military law!" Cao Zhongming gritted his teeth with hatred, this military order made him unable to control his anger and apprehension anymore. Now, his heart is full of worries about Cao Xijin.

"King An, Li Ye! You are so ruthless! You are so ruthless!" Cao Zhongming crushed the military newspaper, the wind around him swept wildly, and his aura exploded, "Li Ye, you bastard! You dare to treat me like this, you dare to do this! You attack my city in a grand manner, and you are also planning to ambush my army, you don't take me Weibo in your eyes like this, so you are not afraid that I will fight with you Pinglu endlessly?!"

Cao Zhongming turned around and immediately shouted: "Gather the generals, this commander will personally recruit Li Ye's dog thief!"

The soldiers immediately received the order, and they went to pass the order without mentioning it.

From time to time, Cao Zhongming sat in the political hall, and Wei Bo's high-ranking officials and generals and his confidants and staff came one after another. Everyone gathered together to discuss the matter of sending troops to recruit Li Ye.

"Li Ye is so rampant, you must fight him endlessly!"

"Marshal, it is important to rescue Bozhou at the moment, and we must not delay!"

"Li Ye is really mad, what is he saying about attacking Hedong, I think he is coming at our Wei Bo! This wolf has ambitions, he must do his best to annihilate the Pinglu army in Wei Bo, so that he can know that he is powerful!"

"Yes, you have to do this, let the court and the world know that we Wei Bo are not easy to mess with!"

Everyone was filled with righteous indignation, they all had the will to fight, and it could be regarded as morale, Cao Zhongming immediately decided: "Dispatch the garrisons of various states and gather in Weizhou, and the commander must take down the head of Li Ye's dog thief......"

Before he finished speaking, the voice of the commander of the pro-soldiers came from outside the hall, with a hint of trembling in eagerness: "Military commander, the eldest prince is back!"

"The eldest prince?"

"The eldest prince is back?"

Cao Zhongming was shocked when he heard this, and couldn't help but be full of joy. Regardless of whether Bozhou City is lost or not, Cao Xijin's return is good news for him. It's just a city, how can there be an heir?

Cao Zhongming immediately got up, stepped outside the hall, and looked at the commander of the guard: "Where is my son?"

At just one glance, Cao Zhongming was stunned. Contrary to what he expected, Cao Xijin did not stand in the courtyard, but was carried by four armor soldiers, lying on a wooden frame, and covered in blood.

Cao Zhongming was shocked, and his heart was extremely uncomfortable, as if he had been stabbed, and his breathing was out of rhythm. However, he still forced his composure and walked towards Cao Xijin. In any case, as long as the person comes back, even if he is injured a little, it is not unacceptable, and the festival makes the mansion have many elixirs that can heal the wounds.

"Father......" Cao Xijin suddenly woke up, arched his upper body hard, and looked at Cao Zhongming weakly.

Cao Zhongming saw Cao Xijin's appearance clearly, as if he had been struck by lightning, and his whole body was stiff. Cao Xijin's ears were gone, his hands and feet were also cut off, leaving only four flat wounds, wrapped in blood-drenched cloth, and the whole person was weak, and it seemed that there was only one breath left.

"Wu'er, how can this be?!" Cao Xijin looked up to the sky and let out a sad cry, and couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood.
