Chapter 23: The Battle of Wancheng

One day, Cheng Lun teased Chitu at his horse farm without incident, and a soldier came to report.

General Cao Cao invited Lord Cheng Lun to go, there is an urgent military situation. ”

"What?"

"The subordinates didn't know, so they just said that they should let Master Cheng Lun hurry up. Cheng Lun didn't dare to delay, changed his clothes, took the novice sword and went out.

When Cheng Lun arrived at Cao Cao's mansion, he saw that all the generals were there. Guo Jia motioned for Cheng Lun to sit next to him, Cheng Lun walked over and sat down and asked in a low voice, "Do you know what the matter is?"

Guo Jia: "Let's listen to the lord." ”

At this time, I saw Cao Cao speak: "Liu Bei is now in trouble and takes refuge with me, what is your opinion?"

When Cheng Lun heard this, this was my business, so he absentmindedly practiced the skill of "Peace of Mind" in his seat.

Xun Yu: "Liu Bei is a hero, if you don't kill him earlier, I'm afraid there will be endless troubles." ”

Cheng Yu: "Liu Bei will not be a person under the people after all, and the lord might as well figure it out as soon as possible." ”

Cao Cao was a little hesitant to listen to the opinions of these two people, so he gestured to Guo Jia with his eyes.

Guo Jia got up and said: "The lord is a righteous soldier, for the people to eliminate violence, in the name of righteousness to recruit heroes and heroes, now Liu Bei has the name of a hero, now suffering to the lord, if killed, who else in the world is willing to come? Solving Liu Bei's hidden danger will hinder the whole world from defecting to the lord, and it is not advisable." Why don't you fight Lu Bu with Liu Bei and solve Lu Bu's big problem first. ”

Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard Guo Jia's words, named Liu Bei as the pastor of Yuzhou, and asked him to march into Xiaopei and attack Lü Bu in Xuzhou.

Cao Cao was preparing to send troops to fight Liu Bei, when someone came to report that Zhang Xiu in Wancheng had colluded with Liu Biao to rebel, Cao Cao was furious and wanted to crusade against Zhang Xiu, but he was afraid that Lu Bu would take advantage of it again.

Xun Yu: "The lord can add an official to Lu Bu, and then send someone to reconcile with Liu Bei, and when Lu Bu is happy, there will be no other schemes." In this way, first stabilize Lu Bu and solve Zhang Xiu's problem. ”

Cao Cao followed Xun Yu's advice, sent people to Xuzhou to stabilize Lü Bu, and raised 150,000 troops to attack Wancheng. Zhang Xiu saw that Cao Cao was powerful, so he had to surrender and treat Cao Cao with good food and drink every day.

One day, Cao Cao got drunk and quietly asked his subordinates, "Are there any beautiful women in this city?"

Cao Cao's nephew Cao Anmin knew that Cao Cao was a good woman, and whispered to Cao Cao: "I saw a woman yesterday, who was born very beautiful, Zhang Xiu's aunt and Zhang Ji's wife. ”

Cao Cao moved and asked Cao Anmin to bring 50 soldiers to bring it together, and when Cao Cao saw the woman, she was really beautiful, "What's your name?"

"The concubine is Zhang Ji's wife, Zou. ”

"Does Madame recognize me?"

"I have heard the prestige of the general for a long time, and I am fortunate to pay homage today. "Zou didn't dare to provoke Cao Cao.

"I am willing to accept Zhang Xiu's surrender because of my wife, otherwise the Zhang clan would have been wiped out. Cao Cao was very moved when he saw that Zou was beautiful and put pressure on her.

"Zou thanked the general for his regeneration. Zou thanked him with tears.

Cao Cao: "It's a blessing to see Mrs. today." ”

Cao Cao took Zou's hand and continued to ask, "I don't know if Madam is willing to sit with me tonight?" Zou had a premonition and didn't dare to refuse.

"It is a privilege for a concubine to be able to serve the general. It's just that I have lived in the city for a long time, and I am afraid that Zhang Xiu will be suspicious, and I am also afraid of outsiders talking about it. With tears in his eyes, Zou was still making his last struggle.

"Zhang Xiu, the general of the defeated army, how dare he be angry! Tomorrow I will go to live in the village with my wife. Hahaha!" Cao Cao and Zou stayed overnight that night, and went to the village outside the city on the second day, and asked Dian Wei to stay outside the door without summoning everyone to enter, and to have fun with Zou every day, ignoring foreign affairs.

Zhang Xiu was furious when she found out, "Insulting my aunt, I will kill this thief." "Please come to Jia Xu to discuss the plot against Cao Cao.

Zhang Xiu designed to arrange soldiers in four villages around Cao Cao, but he was afraid of Dian Wei's courage and did not dare to do anything. Zhang Xiu's subordinates have a different person named Hu Che'er, who can carry 500 pounds and travel 700 miles a day.

"Dian Wei is brave and brave all by his double iron halberd, and the lord will invite him to eat and drink tomorrow, and make him drunk, and then I will sneak into his room and steal his weapon, and Dian Wei will not be afraid. Zhang Xiu was overjoyed and asked Hu Che'er to act according to the plan.

The next day, Zhang Xiu sent someone to invite Dian Wei to eat wine, Dian Wei was worried about Cao Cao's comfort, so he sent someone to ask Cheng Lun to come over to help him guard the door, and then went to eat and drink by himself.

Cheng Lun was very disgusted with Cao Cao's behavior, and didn't want to guard the door for him, pretending to have diarrhea. The soldiers had to go back to report to Dian Wei, who knew that Dian Wei had already gone to eat and drink, and Dian Wei did not expect that someone would refuse to guard the door for Cao Cao. The soldier was dumbfounded and didn't know what to do, so he joined the guards himself to help guard the door.

At night, Cao Cao was drinking and having fun with Zou, and suddenly there was a fire everywhere, Cao Cao was in a hurry, calling Dian Wei, Dian Wei was drunk and had just fallen asleep, and he heard the sound of shouting and killing in his dream, and jumped up, but he couldn't find his double iron halberd.

At this time, the enemy soldiers had already come to the door, Dian Wei was bare-handed, without battle armor, and was stabbed dozens of times all over his body, Dian Wei Wu killed more than 30 people in a battle to the death, and died of blood all over the ground. The enemy soldiers were frightened by Dian Wei, Dian Wei died for a long time, and no one dared to enter in front of Dian Wei.

When Cao Cao learned of Zhang Xiu's cause, he glared angrily at Zou, who stroked the qin in the flames, sprouting the will to live and die, and was unwilling to escape. Cao Cao glared at Zou fiercely, and Cao Anmin hurriedly urged Cao Cao to escape. Cao Cao had the intention to kill the Zou family, but seeing that the Zou family was calmly facing death, he couldn't bear to do it, so he had to flee with Cao Anmin.

On the second day, Cao Cao learned that his nephew Cao Anmin and son Cao Ang had died in battle, and Dian Wei could not even find the corpses. Cao Cao cried loudly, and at this time someone came to report that Dian Wei had asked Cheng Lun to help guard the door last night, but Cheng Lun did not come under the pretext of abdominal pain.

Cao Cao was furious: "Bring Cheng Lun to me!"

"Why don't you guard Dian Wei, now that you kill Dian Wei, I will kill you!"

"Damn, if it weren't for your adultery and insulting other people's aunts, would there be such a thing?" Cheng Lun was furious in his heart, ready to tear his face with Cao Cao. All the generals persuaded Cheng Lun to repel Zhang Xiu and make meritorious contributions.

Cheng Lun didn't want to anger Cao Cao again at this time, so he led his soldiers to stop Zhang Xiu. Cheng Lun was angry in his heart, and ran straight to Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu's generals saw this and went out one after another, Cheng Lun slashed a blow to a hand, and then the novice's sword was changed to the left hand, and the right fist hit the chest with a move across the mountain, only to see that the man flew out of the horse, and when he landed, his internal organs were already broken. The remaining people saw that Cheng Lun was brave and invincible, and hurriedly turned around and ran away, Cheng Lun did not chase, stretched out his palm to concentrate, and saw an apple-sized fireball appear in Cheng Lun's hand.

"Go!" Cheng Lun shot the fireball at the fleeing person, the fireball hit and began to burn, the man lay on the ground and began to roll to extinguish the fire on his body, who knew that the fire could not be extinguished, and he screamed for 1 minute before he died. Zhang Xiu's soldiers threw away their weapons in fright and began to flee, and Cheng Lun won a complete victory.
