Chapter Twenty-Six: Cutting Zhang Embroidery Again
A month later, Cheng Lun was level 26, and the mine finally succeeded in challenging the intermediate level after many attempts. Cao Cao also decided to send troops to attack Zhang Xiu at this time.
By this time it was summer, and the crops were ripe, and the people did not dare to harvest when they saw that the army had arrived, so they fled one after another. Cao Cao saw that this was not good, and there was nowhere to collect grain after no one harvested. So he ordered that all those who trampled on the crops should be beheaded and displayed to the public.
Shortly after giving the order, Cao Cao's horse was startled by the birds in the field, ran into the wheat field, and trampled on a large wheat field. Cao Cao finally quieted down the horse, and when he came back, all the soldiers and generals were looking at him, and Cao Cao felt a dog in his heart. Cheng Lun looked at it and wanted to laugh, but he didn't dare to laugh, and he was uncomfortable.
Cao Cao sighed: "The master of the march, I stepped on the wheat field, what should I do?"
The chief secretary didn't dare to answer: "How can the prime minister be punished!"
"I have set the law, and now I know the law and break the law, if I don't punish the crime, how can I serve the public?" said Cao Cao, who glanced at Guo Jia.
Guo Jia will mean: "The righteousness of the ancients' Spring and Autumn Period: the law is not respected. How can the prime minister's army kill itself?"
Cao Cao pretended to muse for a long time: "Since "Spring and Autumn" has the righteousness of not adding respect to the law, my aunt will not die." Acting head of the right to cut hair. So he cut off his hair and threw it on the ground.
The soldiers and generals were all shocked when they heard this, and they all seriously promised not to trample on the wheat field, Cheng Lun sighed: "Cao Cao and Guo Jia have deep routines!"
Cao Cao ordered to attack Nanyang City, Guancheng set a plan to attack the southeast corner on the 3rd, but Jia Xu had already seen through Cao Cao's plan, and laid an ambush in the southeast corner, Cao Cao was defeated, losing more than 50,000 people and losing countless baggage.
Cao Cao was defeated and fled, and suddenly Cao Cao cried loudly, and everyone asked in surprise. Cao Cao: "Remembering that I folded Dian Wei here last year, I was sad and had to cry." So he ordered the mourning of the soul of Dian Wei.
The next day, Cao Cao learned that Yuan Shao had the intention of marching into Xudu, and eagerly ordered him to go back, ordering Cheng Lun to prevent the pursuing soldiers. Liu Biao saw Cao Cao retreating in a hurry, and urged Zhang Xiu to pursue together.
Cheng Lun sat on the red rabbit and marched slowly, he had just bought the "Thunderball" skill book on the black market, and he was very excited.
Thunderball: Summon multiple thunderbolts, the higher the level of wisdom and skill, the greater the number of thunderbolts, the greater the power.
Cheng Lun remembered the hundreds of heavenly thunders summoned by Zhang Jiao when he was demonized, and the power was simply devastating, and Cheng Lun couldn't wait to return to Xu Du now to train every day behind closed doors.
Soldier: "Report!" Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao came after with tens of thousands of soldiers. ”
"Let him come, just so that they can see how powerful my Cheng Lun Archmage is. Cheng Lun's junior generals looked confused when they heard this, General Cheng Lun wouldn't be crazy.
Cheng Lun stopped the army and led the generals to wait for the pursuers, Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao didn't dare to be careless, and the two sides stopped fighting.
"Hurry up, brother, there is something urgent waiting to go back!" Cheng Lun was impatient, and rushed over alone, Liu Biao panicked, and hurriedly let his generals rush up.
"Damn, shameless!" There were more than a dozen people down, and Cheng Lun was afraid that there would be some fierce people under Liu Biao who he didn't know, so he didn't dare to be careless, so he stopped and concentrated for a few seconds.
"Thunderbolt!"
"Click!" A young enemy general was rushing to kill, and was killed on the spot by a thunderbolt falling from the sky, and the others were so shocked that they stopped and did not dare to step forward. Zhang Xiu was in a hurry and ordered all the soldiers to rush over.
"Kill!" The people on Cheng Lun's side saw that the other soldier's soldiers began to charge, and they rushed up not to be outdone. Cheng Lun scolded in his heart and quickly retreated to his camp.
Cheng Lun stared at the battlefield and slowly closed his eyes, about half a minute later.
"Thunder!" I saw that the sky suddenly gathered clouds, and several thunderbolts fell from the sky, and the bombed people in the enemy camp turned on their backs.
"Godman! We have angered Godman!" Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao shouted loudly, but they still couldn't stop the fear in the soldiers' hearts, and they retreated desperately, and Cheng Lun won a great victory.
Cheng Lun was in a good mood for the big victory, and he expected that the enemy would not dare to come again, so he took dozens of cavalry to withdraw to Xudu first, wanting to practice his skills well, and the training ground had not been entered for many days, and he was distressed.
At this time, Zhang Xiu, Jia Xu said: "Today, you can organize the army to chase it again, if you don't win, you can fight my head." Zhang Xiu trusted Jia Xu more, but Liu Biao was suspicious and refused. Zhang Xiu had no choice but to send his own soldiers to go alone, Zhang Xiu's soldiers were afraid that the gods were still there, and they did not dare to move forward, Zhang Xiu killed several people before marching normally.
Zhang Xiu chased after Cheng Lun to leave the broken soldiers, but when he saw that Cheng Lun was not there, Zhang Xiu's soldiers also became bolder, and they rushed to kill and won a complete victory.
Zhang Xiu asked Jia Xu: "How do you know that you will win this time?"
Jia Xu: "Cao Cao is eager to withdraw his troops, there must be something wrong with Xu Du, and he will definitely leave a strong military general to break the queen before." After our defeat, the other party will rush back to Xudu, so it is expected that the other party will not have a strong general, and we will definitely return with a big victory. Zhang Xiu bowed.
When he returned to Xudu, Cao Cao learned that Cheng Lun had won a big victory and was about to reward him, but when he heard that Cheng Lun had left ahead of schedule and caused a big defeat, he pulled Cheng Lun to scold him fiercely, and the reward was also canceled. Cheng Lun was also annoyed in his heart, and this embroidery was also a card of uneasiness and common sense.
Cheng Lun was unhappy and returned to his house to retreat and thank the guests. Since then, there has been a dry day thunder inexplicably in Xudu, the sky is still clear one moment, and the next second there is thunder. However, this thunder only split Cheng Lun's mansion, and the civil and military officials of Xu Du secretly wondered if this Cheng Lun had done something angry and resentful, and even God couldn't look at it, and he was splitting him every day.
For this reason, the emperor also specially found someone to test the good luck, and that person didn't know why, he had never seen such a strange phenomenon, so he had to throw the pot to Cheng Lun.
"General Cheng Lun, this person may be a scourge, this is a warning from heaven! It may be unfavorable to Your Majesty!"
The emperor had the intention to get rid of Cheng Lun, but Cheng Lun was Cao Cao's subordinate and did not dare to do it, and the emperor even thought that in the future, the throne would become the Cao family because of Cheng Lun. After all, I heard that this Cheng Lun is very powerful, if Cao Cao wants to seize the throne one day, I am afraid that no one around him will be Cheng Lun's opponent.
Cheng Lun doesn't care about other people's opinions, he only cares about training skills every day, and the martial arts arena is full of traces of fire and lightning strikes, and there are countless big pits on the ground. Guo Jia happened to see the scene of Cheng Lun's martial arts, and he was shocked, this Cheng Lun is getting more and more powerful, and he has to find a way to prevent him from rebelling. This Cheng Lun has no family to hold hostage, and he doesn't have much love for money and power, and he doesn't respect Cao Cao very much.
"Do you want to kill him?" Guo Jia thought about it carefully, and felt that it was still not good, at present, Cheng Lun did not show any thoughts that would be unfavorable to Cao Cao, and secondly, Cheng Lun was extraordinary in martial arts, and he knew how to spell, and the cost of killing him was estimated to be not small.
"Hey, it seems that I can only let it go for the time being, so that the lord can be kind to Cheng Lun, and I think Cheng Lun is not a merciless person. Fortunately, Cheng Lun has no intention of dominating the world, otherwise it would be a headache. Guo Jia decided not to think about Cheng Lun's problem anymore, and let Cao Cao focus on appeasement.
