Cao Cao adjusted his mood and prepared for the next battle. After all, he had received news that Cao Bao led 30,000 Danyang elites to kill in his direction.
In the next two days, Cao Jun continued to carry out disaster relief. Just as Xun You estimated, the dead could not testify about what Cao Jun did. After the real Cao Jun killed batch after batch of thugs under the banner of Cao Jun, many
The people of Xuzhou really believed that it was not Cao's army who was massacring, but someone who was pouring dirty water on Cao's army in the name of Cao's army.
"Hahaha, the situation is getting better again, all that's left is to find the murderer!" Cao Cao's gloomy mood improved a lot after seeing the intelligence sent from everywhere. Cao Cao didn't want to lose something like people's support.
"Report, play the military advisor's letter." Just as Cao Cao was happily looking at the information everywhere, he imagined how many armies he could build with the materials he had collected from Xuzhou. He would be one step closer to Kuang Fu conquering the outside of the Great Wall and becoming the general who conquered the west.
At that moment, a messenger rushed over.
"Haha, Zhicai's letter, good thing, good thing. It seems that Zhicai's body has recovered more than half." Cao Cao said with a smile, feeling like a double happiness.
He took the letter, opened it and browsed it over. The joy on his face became more intense, "Go, go to the back camp to receive the reward."
"Lord, what's the happy event?" Cheng Yu asked with a smile.
"Zhicai is in good health, and he found two great talents for me, and also found Zhaoji who had been separated from Chang'an." Cao Cao said with a smile.
"Report. Cao Chun, Cao Zi and the general are here to report." Another messenger rushed in.
"Nian." Upon hearing that it was a military report, Cao Cao did not reach out to pick it up.
"Zhendong General Liu Xuande and pioneer Zhao Yun have led three thousand white horse Yi Cong to Linyi. Sima Li Zheng died in the battle. General Cao is trapped in Linyi and cannot get out." The ordering soldier lowered his head and said.
Cao Cao's face became solemn for a while. Although he expected Liu Bei to come back early in the morning, he never expected Liu Bei to come back so early.
"Instruct Cao Xiu to lead 3,000 infantrymen to Linyi for rescue, wait for help, and do not attack. Wait until I defeat Cao Bao, and then join Liu Xuande in hunting at Langya!" Cao Cao said calmly. [Liu Bei, after we parted ways in Hulao, we are finally going to
Right. I had this premonition at the beginning. I didn’t expect this day to come so quickly, but it’s okay, let me meet the so-called overlord of the Central Plains!]
The messenger had just left for a while when another messenger came in with a letter, "My lord, Zhuge Ziyu has a letter delivered."
"Zhuge Ziyu?" Cao Cao frowned, then frowned, "Hahaha, you are a great talent. Today is indeed a great day!"
Cao Cao opened the letter and his whole face turned pale, "How dare you insult my ancestors!"
Although Cao Mengde was cursing loudly, his heart was bleeding continuously. This was the genius Xi Zhicai said, and he was forced to leave like this. He couldn't stand up to each other!
"Lord, calm down, calm down." Cheng Yu saw Cao Cao angrily tearing the entire letter into pieces and quickly comforted him.
"Zhongde, there is no need for this. I want to see who the Zhuge family in Langya is! Huh!" Cao Cao struggled to suppress the anger in his heart and said as calmly as possible.
"Report. A letter has arrived from Mount Tai!" came another messenger.
"Send it up." Cao Cao said with a cold light in his eyes.
Opening the envelope, two books and two letters fell out. First, he opened the thick envelope. There were no curse words, only a long strategy sheet. Cao Cao could not help but nod his head and said to himself, "He is indeed a genius. I don't know."
Which character is this?"
Seeing the end, Cao Cao couldn't help but have the idea of taking the person who wrote the letter under his command. When he saw the signature, his face turned green and red, "Langya Zhuge family, Liang, is twelve years old. This is what I have prepared for Cao Cao.
, if you massacre my hometown, you will regret it for the rest of your life!"
When Cao Cao saw this signature, his throat felt sweet, but he suppressed the blood and sneered with a ferocious expression, "Langya Zhuge clan, I want to see how capable you Langya Zhuge clan are!"
Having said that, Cao Cao has completely remembered Zhuge Liang in his heart. If a twelve-year-old boy who can make such a strategy does not have a ghostwriter, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a formidable enemy!
Opening another letter, there were only two words on it. The handwriting of the cinnabar pen was as familiar as before. Cai Yan's original voice and smile appeared in Cao Cao's mind, but looking at the two words "break up" in Zhu Hong, Cao Cao
Unable to hold back any longer, a mouthful of blood spurted out, staining the entire letter paper red, and he fell on his back.
The death of his father, the self-blame for the bloody massacre of Xuzhou, the hatred for himself after receiving the last words, Zhuge Jin's insults, Zhuge Liang's talent, Cai Yan's ruthless handwriting, under a series of blows, Cao Cao vomited out a mouthful of blood and fell ill.
In the military camp.
On the other side, Liu Bei led the army to stop and go. If it were not for the dragging down of the refugees in Xuzhou, Liu Bei would have rushed to Pengcheng State to join forces with Cao Bao and have a life-and-death battle with Cao Cao. Unfortunately, due to the large number of people suffering from hunger and cold,
The refugees were so forced that Liu Bei could not move forward at all. He could only quietly set up camp and continuously mobilize food and grass from the rear to ensure the survival of the refugees.
The more this happened, the more Liu Bei hated Cao Cao. Although Liu Bei had never been to the prosperity of Xuzhou in person, he knew that when Tao Gongzu raised taxes in three years, every family in Xuzhou had a surplus of food. He didn't want to take a look at it now.
When you go, you will be filled with mourning!
When Chen Xi comes with a large amount of food, winter clothes, medicinal materials, and doctors, Liu Bei will still be stuck in Donghai County, unable to move in. After all, the pressure of hundreds of thousands of refugees is still too great for Liu Bei, and many supplies cannot be kept up. If
Just to defeat Cao Mengde and ignore this group of refugees, Liu Bei simply couldn't get over this hurdle in his heart.
As for Cao Bao's army, which had arrived in Pengcheng and pretended to avenge the people, they paid no attention to the Xuzhou refugees and even sent a letter of questioning to Liu Bei.
It should be said that Cao Bao had lost his mind, but he still felt good about himself. He actually asked Liu Bei why he invaded Xuzhou. Liu Bei, who had originally planned to help Cao Bao, was disappointed and ignored Cao Bao. Instead, he concentrated on Donghai County.
Gather and treat the people of Xuzhou.
Liu Bei did not feel any heartache at all despite the huge expenditure of materials every day. Watching the people of Xuzhou gradually escape from the pain of losing their loved ones and homes, a smile gradually appeared on Liu Bei's face, which was originally angry.
Running among the people, trying their best to solve their future life problems, and then organizing teams one by one to send troops to send them to other stable places in Xuzhou, or if the other party is willing to join their rule, order people to send them to Mount Tai, every day
Doing these things repeatedly, but never getting tired of it. (To be continued)
