Chapter 234 Cao Cao's Psychological Shadow
The Yulin Army finally escaped to a safe place, but was attracted by Xiahou Yuan and Lu Bu. They rushed to fight. Of course, to be precise, they should have been shot in a hurry and had no power to fight back. In this case, the casualties were naturally heavy!
The battle just began and it ended immediately!
Half of the Yulin Army were shot to death by men and horses, while the remaining half ran away screaming and fled to the alley! The Yulin Army ran away while shouting: "The Fujiao Soldiers are here, the Fujiao Soldiers are here!" In just a moment, they escaped completely.
This town has been in peace for a long time, and has not seen any war. After a long time of peace, the Ping surname in the town has long had no idea of being prepared for danger in times of peace. Suddenly, people wearing people's clothes dared to attack the officers and soldiers. The people all thought it was a robber attack, but none of them went to resist the robbers and they all ran home!
When Li Qin entered the town, he heard the sound of doors and bolts in the town, and the windows were thumped by the people!
Zhao Zheng followed Li Qin and said, "These fellow villagers are so funny. They even imagine us as robbers. But even if we are robbers, can we block us out with a door panel?"
Li Qin waved his hand and said, "It's useless to say these things. Catching Cao Cao is the key point, but I just saw that only two people ran away, neither of them were Cao Cao. What about Cao Cao? Also, how could they have spare horses?"
Zhao Zheng was stunned and said, "Maybe he robbed it halfway?" He thought about it, "Yes, how could those two escaped people have spare horses? And they are all war horses?"
Li Qin shouted at the Fujiao Bing: "Go and catch those Yulin soldiers. At least two live-action people are needed, don't kill them all!"
The Fujiao soldiers arrested the Yulin Army everywhere, but had little effect. After busy in the town for a long time, they didn't catch any of them alive! The Yulin Army was not good at fighting, but when they ran away, they were comparable to Cao Cao, and even better. In just a quarter of an hour, no one survived except the dead, and all ran away without a trace!
Zhao Zheng personally dismounted to check the body. Seeing that all the Yulin Army shot was shot dead, and there was no one to live, he had to repay Li Qin. It seemed that he could not get news from Cao Cao from these people.
Li Qin was anxious. It would be great if Jia Xu was here. Someone could give him some advice, but he knew that everything is abnormal, and during the pursuit, the only abnormal thing was that the two escaped people, why would there be spare horses?
He shouted to the return Fujiao Bing, "Who do you know those two people, one of them is Lu Bu, and the other is who..."
Zhao Zheng said: "It's Xiahou Yuan. He reported his own name and was stabbed by me!"
Li Qin said: "Yes, it's these two people who are chasing ahead. Do you see how they got the spare horse?"
The soldiers of Fujiao shook their heads, saying that they didn't notice it. A small soldier suddenly said, "Li Lang, we met three passers-by on the way and pointed us at the same time. They were exactly three people, and Lu Bu and the others happened to get three spare war horses. Could it be that they were the three of them? But the three of them did not complain to us, and let us help snatch the war horses back!"
Li Qin didn't remember seeing anything passing by. He was shocked and said, "I remembered it too, but there were not three people. How could ordinary people have war horses? It would be nice to have a stable horse to pull a cart!"
The soldier's face turned green immediately, and he said, "It's all a big blame for being a little bitch, who has misled Li Lang's big deal!"
Li Qin waved his hand and said, "How can you blame me? It's mine, it's not right. He actually ignored the passing people. He's really careless!"
The surrounding soldiers shouted, "How can you blame Li Lang!"
Zhao Zheng also said: "Lu Bu and Xiahou Yuan must have led us away, and there must be Cao Cao among those three! It is really hard to imagine that Cao Cao was so brave. It would be fine if he didn't hide from us. He dared to walk towards us. Then Cao Cao was kicked in the head by a donkey, right?"
"If the head is kicked by a donkey, how can you escape the danger smoothly!" Li Qin was angry and anxious. He had always had a smooth encounter in the late Han Dynasty, but today he was defeated by Cao Cao. Although he had all kinds of foresight to travel through the human family, in the subtleties, the face-to-face battle of wits and courage were still a trick. It seems that a hero is a hero. Even if he was born almost two thousand years ago, he is still very powerful!
Li Qin turned his head and said, "If it were me, I wouldn't have the courage to go deep into the enemy's back... This can be considered to go deep into the enemy's back, but I only realized that I was extremely careless!"
He led a large group of people and horses back and forth, but just after he ran out of the town, he stopped the horse again.
Li Qin thought to himself: "It doesn't matter to yourself, but it will be in chaos. I am too anxious, so my mind is not clear. Cao Cao took advantage of the loophole. Now he can't act recklessly anymore. He has to think about it. Cao Cao escaped a disaster, and he will hide and rush in secret. No matter how I search, he can't find it, but why do I need to search? Cao Cao is going to escape to Luoyang, and he can only go to Chang'an through Sizhou, and he can only escape from here. Sizhou is full of my soldiers. I just need to order people to wait for him in front. Even if I can't block him, I have to leave some shadow in his heart, so that he will be afraid when he sees me in the future!"
He turned his horse's head over again and said, "I guess he can't be found no matter how hard he is searched! Let's do it, everyone spread it out, echo each other, shouting Cao Cao's name, it's best to be able to bomb him out. If you can't, it's nothing. Everyone will act separately!"
In military exercises, there is no such thing as searching people, but there is a night reconnaissance exercise for scouts. It is a compulsory course. This is a trick used when your side is strong but cannot find an enemy scout. It can effectively scare away the enemy scouts, so that they dare not get up and approach the squadron. They will not be able to detect important military information.
After hearing Li Qin's orders, the soldiers of the squat immediately dispersed and returned to the town, shouting from house to house, harassing the people. Of course, they could not find Cao Cao in the town, so they scattered again. On the road, in the woods, they shouted, and every hundred steps, there was a soldier of the squat, which was like casting a net, shouting on a large scale to scare Cao Cao.
Li Qin led a few personal soldiers and rushed back. He wanted to deal with Zhang Rang's sister. He couldn't let the woman wait halfway, and he had to send her to Fujiao Fort as soon as possible.
After dark, not far from the town.
Cao Cao and two generals hid in the woods. All three climbed onto the trees, and everyone was frightened. In the night, they heard the sound of the squads of the squads from afar, just like a secret code. After a word Cao Cao, the word Cao Cao sounded again. I don’t know how many squads were searching them nearby.
A general lay on a tree branch and whispered: "Master, why are those horn-held soldiers so hard? Do they don't have to rest or sleep?"
Cao Cao shook his head gently and said, "They have a lot of people and can take turns to rest. Moreover, this place is not far from Liangzhou. They can send troops to replenish them at any time. It seems that the entire place here has been defeated by them."
Another general said, "Master, should you go down and check, see if the horn-boasting soldiers are bluffing, or are we sure we are close to each other, so we search like a net?"
Cao Cao hurriedly said, "Don't, don't go. All they want is to take the initiative to go out. If you are discovered, they will be sure that we are hiding here. At that time, a large group of people searched comprehensively. Even if we hide in the trees, they could find it!"
The two generals had to stop making a sound and lie on the tree obediently.
The squadrons were really able to make trouble. They kept calling until the moon passed by Zhongtian, but they still did not stop searching. Instead, the direction of searching came to the woods. The sound of shouting for Cao Cao came one after another, one after another, one in the east, and another in the west, and there was no rule to find.
There was a sound of rumbling. Cao Cao touched his stomach. He was so hungry that he had already put his chest on his back. Now he was cold and hungry, and he could hardly bear it. He had never suffered such a crime before since he was born. People from wealthy families were worried that they could not eat all good things, but they did not have to worry about having nothing to eat. But now he could only ride on the tree branch with his legs, not only hunger, but also fearful!
A family general said, "Master, otherwise I'll go down and find some food. It won't work like this. Even if you avoid the squadron, your body will collapse. It will be difficult to leave at that time."
Cao Cao hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head and said, "It's not appropriate, wait a little longer. We will enter the town after dawn. The soldiers who are helping the squad will be tired after dawn. And it's during the day. They never thought that we will enter the town during the day, and we will be safe!"
I heard that I was going to take risks again, and neither of the two generals dared to say anything, but they all felt that as long as they listened to the master, it would be right. They were so impressed by Cao Cao's courage to meet Li Qin. Let me ask the heroes of the world, who dares to fight against Li Qin? There is no one else except his master!
They waited for a while, and suddenly, not far from the woods, someone shouted, "Cao Cao, I saw you, come out!"
When Cao Cao and the two generals heard this, they were so scared that they almost fell off the tree branch. They hid secretly and were in the middle of the night. How could they be discovered? Could it be that the belly of the three people was too loud just now, so the sound was heard by the slinger?
The two generals looked at Cao Cao together, but Cao Cao waved his hand at them, asking them to be calm. This may be the fact that the squadron soldiers were cheating on them, but they did not see them.
Sure enough, the horn-held soldier called twice and stopped calling, but he slowly walked over and reached the tree where the three of them were hiding. The horn-held soldier got off his horse, took out dry food from the bag, sat under the tree and started eating. After a moment, another horn-held soldier came over.
The two soldiers ate the horns greeted each other and ate the dry food together. The sound of eating and chewing was loud, and they ate from time to time and said, "It's delicious, this meatloaf tastes very good and hot. The people here are living a good life!"
It was obvious that they had made good things in a restaurant in the town, hiding here to eat, and being lazy.
