As soon as Ma Xiaoquan finished speaking, the Heart of Time in his body reacted violently.
In fact, Ma Xiaoquan had his own purpose in saying this.
Judging from the message left by Huang Jingming and what Mingfa said, the Heart of Time will backfire on the host. Therefore, there will be several hosts of the Heart of Time.
Mingfa once said that no matter what basis it was inferred, Huang Jingming was the most suitable among the previous hosts, but Huang Jingming was the most incredible host to die.
The message left by Huang Jingming mentioned that if you want the heart of time to backfire, a simple way is to go against history.
Therefore, Ma Xiaoquan boldly told Chunyu Qiong that Cao Cao would attack Wuchao tonight.
Chunyu Qiong looked at Ma Xiaoquan with her eyes open and fell into deep thought.
As Chun Yuqiong meditated longer, the restlessness of the heart of time in Ma Xiaoquan became stronger and stronger.
Gradually, Ma Xiaoquan began to feel short of breath.
"It seems that the message left by Huang Jingming is correct. History really does not allow any change in the general direction."
Ma Xiaoquan endured the pain all over his body and said, "Zhong Jian, do you believe it?"
Chunyu Qiong thought for a while, shook her head and said, "I don't believe you!"
As soon as Chun Yuqiong finished speaking, the heart of time in Ma Xiaoquan suddenly stopped stirring.
Ma Xiaoquan wiped the sweat on his head with relief, and said with a smile: "I was just saying casually, haha, I came here today just to ask you to help me find what I need!"
Ma Xiaoquan said, took out a white scroll and threw it to Chunyu Qiong.
Chunyu Qiong took the white scroll, opened it, looked at it, and said with a smile: "Isn't this the thing that my lord got recently? Why, do you want to win someone's love?"
Ma Xiaoquan snorted coldly: "Stealing people's love? Brother Zhong Jian's words are too much. This thing is mine, why should I want to steal people's love?"
"Hmph!" Chunyu Qiong rolled his sleeves, "What a joke, you said what's yours is yours? It is said that Mr. Lu Xianlu also seems to have a strong interest in this thing... Okay, it seems
We don't agree with each other, so you and I don't need to say anything more. I remember that you and I met at the Hua family's bracelet ceremony in the past. I will not pursue today's matter. Who is coming?
Ah, see off guests!"
As soon as Chunyu Qiong finished speaking, a group of soldiers entered the tent with their spears raised.
Ma Xiaoquan shrugged helplessly: "Well, since Zhong Jian said so, I won't stay any longer and say goodbye!"
...
After leaving Wuchao, Ma Xiaoquan had a solemn expression on his face.
"It turns out that if you turn your back on history, you will really be doomed. But what did Huang Jingming do at that time?"
While thinking and walking, Ma Xiaoquan unexpectedly bumped into Cao Cao who came to attack Wuchao.
Since it was late at night and pitch black, Cao Cao did not dare to act rashly. It was not until he got closer that Cao Cao recognized the Lord Shangxian.
After dismounting, the two exchanged some pleasantries, and then Cao Cao asked, "Why is Master Shangxian here?"
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head: "I'll help you explore the crow's nest!"
"Oh? Then, Lord Shangxian, can you tell me how Wuchao is?"
Ma Xiaoquan thought for a moment and said, "Call Le Jin over!"
Cao Cao nodded and called Le Jin to his side.
Ma Xiaoquan asked Le Jin: "Le Jin, do you want to make meritorious deeds?"
Le Jin has very little contact with Master Shangxian. Although he has had various ideas to approach Master Shangxian, he has been overtaken by Xiahou Dun and others every time. For this reason, Le Jin has always been a little unhappy.
This time, Master Shangxian actually asked to see him and asked him if he wanted to make meritorious deeds.
A great thing happened to Le Jin suddenly. How could Le Jin not be happy about it?
Le Jin nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
Ma Xiaoquan hummed and ordered: "Wuchao Guard Chunyu Qiong, this person cannot be kept. No matter what method you use, no matter how dangerous it is, go up and chop off his head for me. If you can't do it, you can
Don’t come to see me! Do you understand?”
Le Jin did not dare to agree. He looked at his lord Cao Cao. Cao Cao nodded and said: "What Master Shangxian says is my word, just do it!"
Only then did Le Jin dare to nod in agreement.
After Le Jin retreated, Cao Cao asked Ma Xiaoquan: "Master Shangxian, have you figured out anything else?"
"That's right, the one who kills Chunyu Qiong is none other than Le Jin!"
Cao Cao didn't believe it, so Ma Xiaoquan reached out and took out a five-baht coin: "A gamble?"
Cao Cao nodded: "Just bet! What's the bet?"
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled: "After you pacify the north, you have to replace all the stallions in my Ma family compound!"
Cao Cao did not dare to laugh loudly, so he could only chuckle twice: "Those stallions are Yuan Shao's treasure, I will share them with you in two large cars!"
"It's a promise!"
...
Cao Cao led the soldiers into Wuchao, while Ma Xiaoquan chose a high slope to watch the battle.
As soon as they stepped into Wuchao, Cao's army showed ferocious faces. They all seemed to be going crazy, lighting grass and burning food whenever they saw it.
Cao Cao held several bundles of dry firewood in his hand, jumped off his horse, threw himself under a granary, spit, and threw all the bundles of dry firewood up in one breath.
Then, Cao Cao took the torch from a passing Cao Jun soldier, gritted his teeth and lit the granary.
"Crack, crackle..." The dry firewood and grains burned and made crisp sounds. Cao Cao looked at the scene in front of him and laughed.
...
The Wuchao defenders, on the one hand, actively rescued the burned food and grass, and on the other hand, fought in the dark with Cao Jun.
Since I didn't know how many people there were in Cao's army, and because Chun Yuqiong had a false reputation, I didn't dare to come forward to fight with Cao's army at night.
Therefore, Cao Cao's night attack on Wuchao went very smoothly.
The war continued until the sky turned white. At this time, seeing that Cao Jun had so few people, Chunyu Qiong dared to come forward to confront Cao Jun head-on.
However, Cao Cao leads all elite soldiers. These elite soldiers have been on the battlefield for many years and have rich experience. How can Yuan's army like Chun Yuqiong be able to resist them?
Although Chunyu Qiong had a large number of people, his combat effectiveness was not on the same level as Cao Cao's elite troops. Cao Cao led the entire army to attack vigorously, but Chunyu Qiong could not resist. After blocking Cao's army outside the camp, Chun Yuqiong
He just stayed there and refused to come out to challenge.
On the high slope, Ma Xiaoquan watched the battle all night and felt a little sleepy.
"Ah, this Chun Yuqiong is really stupid. Well, let me take a nap first."
...
At this time, Yuan Shao's headquarters received news that Wuchao was attacked.
Yuan Shao didn't know how much food and grass had been burned, and he happily said to his son Yuan Tan, even if Wuchao was captured, it would be no big deal. We only need to break through Cao Cao's main camp and see where he can run.
Yuan Shao had the idea of besieging Wei and rescuing Zhao, but his general Zhang Jia Gao Lan objected because Wuchao was the base of Yuan's army, and if Cao Cao dared to attack Wuchao at night, he must have made strict arrangements in the base camp, and if he couldn't capture it,
Cao Cao's base camp, wouldn't the whole army be in danger...
Yuan Shao didn't listen to what Zhang Jaw and Gao Lan said. He only sent a small team of light cavalry to Wuchao for rescue, but he ordered Zhang Jaw and Gao Lan to forcibly attack Cao Cao's base camp.
The base camp of Cao's army was garrisoned by Xun You and Cao Hong. When they learned that General Yuan had come to attack the camp, they not only did not panic, but arranged everything in an orderly manner.
Although Zhang Jia and Gao Lan were both talented generals, in front of Xun You, their resourcefulness seemed a bit too immature. After several battles, not only did they not tear off a piece of the camp tent cloth, but they also lost a lot of money.
people.
As for Wuchao, Cao Cao learned that Yuan Shao had sent troops to rescue Wuchao. Not only did he not divide his troops to resist, he also issued a death order.
Fight to the death with the defenders of Wuchao.
Finally, hard work paid off, and Cao Jun once again broke through the gate of Wuchao.
Le Jin saw Chun Yuqiong from a distance and thought to himself: His grandma's opportunity to make a meritorious service has come. Damn it, if I don't kill that guy today, how can I still have the nerve to see Lord Shangxian?
After thinking about it, Le Jin broke into the enemy camp single-handedly and rushed towards Chunyu Qiong, braving the stray arrows.
Chun Yuqiong also saw Le Jin from a distance. Seeing Le Jin running toward her desperately, Chun Yuqiong was so frightened that she dared not challenge him, so she turned around and ran away with her spear in hand.
"Your grandpa," Le Jin cursed, "Where are you running from?"
Chun Yuqiong, who ran away in a hurry, did not forget to argue with each other. He turned around and scolded Le Jin: "Your uncle, I call this a tactical retreat!"
Le Jin blocked several arrows with a ping-ping-pong-ping motion, drew out his saber, and swung it at Chunyu Qiong.
Chunyu Qiong shouted and dodged Le Jin's saber, laughing loudly.
Unfortunately, as soon as Chunyu Qiong turned around, she was blocked by a low branch.
Hearing a "bang" sound, Chunyu Qiong fell off her horse after hitting a low branch.
Le Jin quickly followed up on his horse, jumped off his horse, and shouted at Chunyu Qiong who had not yet reacted: "Thief, watch the knife!"
With a "Pfft" sound, Le Jin cut off Chun Yuqiong's head with a knife.
The general died, and the Wuchao garrison immediately fell into disarray.
On the high slope, seeing Le Jin holding Chun Yuqiong's head and shouting, Ma Xiaoquan helplessly said: "This is indeed the case in history..."
The war was completely tilted due to Chunyu Qiong's death. Cao Jun quickly took the initiative and attacked from the front and back. After several attempts, Wuchao fell completely.
Cao Cao ordered the remaining grain and baggage to be burned, and ordered the noses of more than a thousand captives to be cut off and given to Yuan Shao along with the tongues of the horses.
When Guo Tu saw this, he was worried that Yuan Shao would blame him, so he quickly shied away the responsibility, saying that Zhang Jia and Gao Lan failed to attack the main camp of Cao's army, which led to the fall of Wuchao, and encouraged Yuan Shao to investigate and prosecute the two men.
When the two generals heard that their order was not accepted, they smashed the equipment used to attack the camp and surrendered to Cao Cao.
Since then, the war in Guandu has completely tilted towards Cao Cao.
After Yuan Shao heard the news, he felt regretful. In panic, Yuan Shao just led 800 cavalry to cross the Yellow River north and fled.
The boss ran away, but his treasure and sergeant power were still there, but they all gave Cao Cao an advantage.
Although Cao Cao and Master Shangxian lost the bet again in the Wuchao battle, Yuan Shao left countless treasures, which was enough for Cao Cao to repay the favor.
When counting the loot, Cao Cao specifically emphasized that he must find the thing that Master Shangxian wanted. Unfortunately, although Yuan Shao lost most of his treasures, he only had the solar recorder. When Yuan Shao escaped,
Brought it with me.
When Ma Xiaoquan found out, he cursed Yuan Shao, an old thief, and had no choice but to extort a large sum of money from Cao Cao.
Looking at the two carts of treasures behind Ma Xiao's body, Cao Cao said in pain: "Master Shangxian, at least leave some good ones for me, right?"
Ma Xiaoquan beamed with joy and said: "Xiao Cao, money is an external possession. You have already won the battle, but you still care about this thing? Besides, this is what you promised me before."
Cao Cao thought to himself, Yuan Shao was defeated by me, why do I care about this little thing?
"Haha, I'm just talking. Oh, by the way, Master Shangxian, what about these tens of thousands of prisoners?"
Ma Xiaoquan asked: "What did Bai Qi do after he defeated Zhao Kuo?"
Cao Cao was shocked, patted his head and nodded: "I understand!"
Turning his back, Ma Xiaoquan sighed helplessly. He knew that killing tens of thousands of prisoners was definitely a historical tragedy, but tens of thousands of people was undoubtedly a serious burden for Cao Cao now. Historically, Cao Cao
It is true that these prisoners were trapped and killed. Ma Xiaoquan's suggestion to Cao Cao was just to comply with history.
"History is like this..." Ma Xiaoquan shook his head and said to Cao Cao, "Xiao Cao, I will do some things in the next few days. From now on, you have to rely more on Feng Xiao's assistance.
yes......"
Cao Cao nodded: "Thank you, Lord Shangxian, for the tip! I will do it!"
Ma Xiaoquan hummed: "Okay, then I'll leave first. By the way, you can lend me some troops. I can't transport these treasures back alone."
