He loosened his grip on the bow and arrow, the bowstring vibrated, and the arrow flew out like a meteor with a harsh sound in the air, and was behind Zhang Biao in an instant.
Phew!
The arrow broke open the armor on Zhang Biao's back, pierced his back, and penetrated his body. In an instant, the bow and arrow pierced his heart, and the bloody arrow protruded from his chest, taking away the vitality in Zhang Biao's body.
The bright red blood kept pouring out.
The expression on Zhang Biao's rough face was full of pain and shock. He had already fled directly, so why was he still shot? Zhang Biao had no time to make any more responses, and endless darkness hit him, and his vision went black.
The burly body fell from the horse to the ground.
After Taishi Ci killed Zhang Biao, he put away his bow and charged again with his spear.
The black-armored soldiers charged and continuously killed Yuan Shu's soldiers.
Large numbers of people fled quickly.
Cao Ang was instantly safe.
He watched Taishi Ci win and shoot the enemy with bright eyes and he was filled with admiration.
awesome!
Great marksmanship!
Archery is even more powerful!
Not long after, Taishi Ci brought people back and solved the crisis.
Cao Ang's face was full of gratitude. He stepped forward, clasped his fists and said, "General Taishi, thank you for your help. If General Taishi hadn't arrived in time, I would have been killed by Yuan Shu's people."
Tai Shici looked indifferent, neither humble nor arrogant, and said: "I brought troops to rescue, and it was also under the order of the lord to protect you secretly. Mr. Cao wants to express his gratitude, so go and thank the lord."
When Cao Ang heard this, he felt even more guilty.
He didn't listen to advice.
If he had listened to Lu Xuan's words earlier, he would have been cautious from the beginning, led his people to travel day and night, and hidden his whereabouts, so that no one would have discovered him. Or, he could have broken them into pieces and dispersed the hundreds of soldiers under his command.
It would not have been ambushed here in Luoyan Mountain, resulting in the loss of so many soldiers.
All of this was caused by him because he didn't listen to Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan is truly the most benevolent and righteous person.
In the beginning, he had a very bad attitude towards Lu Xuan, spoke irritably, and targeted Lu Xuan everywhere. However, Lu Xuan didn't care about it, and instead reminded him to be careful about Yuan Shu. Now he arranged for someone to rescue him, and it was obvious that he didn't care about Yuan Shu.
Keep the reminder in mind.
Lu Xuan is truly a benevolent and righteous gentleman.
Cao Ang looked solemn, clasped his fists and said: "General Taishi, I will bear in mind Lu Xuan's great kindness. Please convey my gratitude on your behalf. Thank you again, General Taishi."
"You're welcome."
Taishi Ci shook his head.
He ordered the entire team to assemble and integrate. There were only fifteen casualties among the black-armored soldiers. Although there were some injuries, they were all minor injuries and no serious injuries were suffered.
Tai Shici said: "Master Cao, I defeated Yuan Shu's ambush. In a short period of time, Yuan Shu was unable to respond. You take advantage of this gap and quickly go north. You need to walk the rest of the way by yourself."
Cao Ang nodded and said, "I understand."
"Farewell!"
Taishi Ci clasped his fists again and ordered to leave.
Cao Ang looked at Taishi Ci's leaving figure and sighed in his heart. Lu Xuan was not only wise and understanding, but also benevolent and enthusiastic. He also had such a tiger general under his command. It was really enviable. Only a benevolent and kind-hearted person like Lu Xuan could make Taishi Ci.
Allegiance.
Cao Ang also quickly organized his army.
He brought more than a hundred people with him. After an inventory, only eighteen people were left, and more than ninety people were killed or injured.
Cao Ang collected all the corpses, burned them on fire, paid homage in person with tears in his eyes, and then ordered to go north.
This time when he went north, Cao Ang hid his whereabouts and traveled cautiously. After Cao Ang left the border of Jiujiang County and entered the territory of Yanzhou, Yuan Shu got the news that the ambush on Cao Ang failed. Yuan Shu was furious, but to no avail.
He had already escaped, and he could not kill Cao Ang to retaliate against Cao Cao. Moreover, he could not afford to offend Cao Cao and did not dare to go to war with Cao Cao.
Yuan Shu's only arrangement was to strengthen the alert to prevent Cao Cao from making a surprise attack.
On the other side, Cao Ang went all the way north and returned to Changyi County. Cao Ang returned to the Prefectural Mufu. After seeing Cao Cao, he bowed and said: "Father, my son is back."
Cao Cao looked at Cao Ang with a smile on his face and asked, "Is this trip going well?"
"It went well, but it didn't go well either."
Cao Ang answered, and he knelt down on the ground with a plop and said: "My son's wedding went smoothly, and my younger sister has married Lu Xuan. However, because of his carelessness, he was ambushed by Yuan Shu on the way back, and nearly ninety people were injured."
.The son is incompetent, please punish him."
Cao Cao waved his hand and said: "You only have a hundred people. It's good to be able to return safely despite being ambushed. Get up."
"No, it's just my son who is careless."
Cao Ang's face was full of guilt and he explained: "When I was in Lujiang County, I had finished seeing off my relatives. When I was about to leave Shu County, Lu Xuan reminded his son to be careful of Yuan Shu's ambush on the way back."
"However, I think my father is very powerful in Yanzhou and Yuan Shu does not dare to take action."
"Unexpectedly, Yuan Shu sent people disguised as thieves to ambush him halfway and was almost killed. This time, if Lu Xuan hadn't arranged for people to follow him secretly and rescue him in time, his son would have died."
"This loss was entirely caused by my son's carelessness. It was my son's self-righteousness that caused this casualty."
Thinking of the dead soldiers, Cao Ang felt very regretful.
I regret my self-righteousness.
I regret my arrogance.
Cao Cao looked at his guilty son, not worried at all, but laughed in his heart.
His son was capable and good at martial arts, and could be said to be both civil and military. The key is that Cao Ang had a good character, filial and kind. The only shortcoming was that Cao Ang was relatively simple, which was the biggest flaw.
To put it simply, Cao Ang has not experienced any setbacks yet, and now he has encountered setbacks, which is a good thing. To achieve great things, you must continue to sharpen your sword, and develop your tough character.
Otherwise, it is just fragile porcelain.
Cao Cao looked serious and said in a deep voice: "It is impossible for a person to make mistakes in his life, and it is impossible for everything to go smoothly. When I attacked Dong Zhuo, I encountered various setbacks, lost troops and generals, suffered countless losses, and almost lost my own progress."
"Do you think I'm decadent?"
"No!"
"As long as I'm still around, I'll have a chance."
"If you encounter the slightest setback or the slightest mistake, you can't get up after a setback, blame yourself all day long, and don't know how to get up, then you are a coward, and you are destined to be a person who cannot achieve anything."
"It's normal to encounter setbacks or make mistakes. You must have a sense of self-blame and shame. Under this premise, you must also have perseverance and the awareness that you can correct your mistakes.
"
"So when I failed, I picked myself up and kept trying, so I have everything I have now."
"The reason why I was ambushed by Yuan Shu this time was because of your carelessness, your carelessness, and your pride, which led to the death of these people. You have to bear the consequences. You will be responsible for the family members of the deceased.
I'll leave it to you to take care of me."
Cao Cao made arrangements directly.
Cao Ang said: "My son will definitely provide pensions and take good care of their family members."
Cao Cao continued: "As for you yourself, you must summarize your mistakes and cheer up. When you encounter something again, you can humbly listen to other people's suggestions and be vigilant. This is the most important thing."
Cao Ang said: "My son understands."
Cao Cao stood up, flicked his sleeves, and said forcefully: "You don't understand, or you don't understand enough. You are my son, Cao Cao. If you encounter problems and cry like a woman, then you are really helpless."
You can't be saved. If you are like this, you are not worthy of being my Cao Cao's son. You should have found a piece of white silk earlier and then found a corner to hang yourself. My Cao Cao's son can lose and make mistakes, but he must never admit defeat.
, we must not be afraid anymore.”
After hearing this, Cao Ang's eyes flashed with high fighting spirit. He wiped the tears from his eyes and said loudly: "Father, don't worry, my son will not be afraid. I will take care of the families of these dead soldiers, and I will not make such a mistake again.
"
Cao Cao's face showed joy.
What a good thing!
This time, thank you to Mr. Lu Xuan. He married a daughter, got a good son-in-law, and received the growth of his son. He is not at a loss in any case.
This time I made a lot of money.
Cao Cao's eyes were sharp and he said: "Cao Ang, remember, if the sky falls, your father will hold it up for you. What you have to do is to stand up straight for me and straighten your spine. You won't be a coward even to death."
.I, the Cao family, cannot be a coward."
"My son remembers it."
Cao Ang nodded in reply and said in a deep voice: "Yuan Shu's revenge today, one day, my son will definitely kill Yuan Shu himself and avenge him."
A bright smile appeared on Cao Cao's dark face, and he praised: "This is my son, Cao Cao, get up."
Cao Ang stood up and had a clear idea.
After Cao Cao's words, he was left with a strong fighting spirit and no more depression.
Cao Cao sat down again and asked: "This time you went to Lujiang County and met Lu Xuan. What do you think of Lu Xuan? What kind of person is he?"
There was a hint of admiration in Cao Ang's eyes, and he said without thinking: "Lu Xuan is a responsible, responsible, and ambitious person. Lu Xuan is quick in thinking and good at debating. I think Lu Xuan is a benevolent and righteous gentleman who is worthy of close friendship. He is sincere."
Gentleman."
Cao Cao's face twitched.
Those deep and smart eyes also lost their focus for a moment.
Gentleman?
Is Lu Xuan a sincere gentleman?
Is Lu Xuan a benevolent and righteous gentleman?
He has never met Lu Xuan, but he has dealt with Lu Xuan through the incident with Xi Zhicai. In Cao Cao's perception, Lu Xuan is a cunning and sinister person, with a shameless face, cunning thoughts, and even revenge.
Xi Zhicai was plotted by Lu Xuan. Even now, Xi Zhicai is a little scared of Lu Xuan.
Now, Cao Ang actually praised Lu Xuan.
Cao Ang expressed his admiration and said that Lu Xuan was responsible, responsible and broad-minded. Cao Cao felt uncomfortable when he heard this. He was thinking just now that he wanted to thank Lu Xuan because Cao Ang finally grew up after visiting Lujiang County.
Now it seems that Lu Xuan deceived Cao Ang into lameness.
Lu Xuan is too cunning.
Lu Xuan is so good at pretending.
Cao Cao took a deep breath, calmed his restless mind, suppressed his beating temples, and asked, "Tell me, how responsible and responsible Lu Xuan is."
Cao Ang had a very good impression of Lu Xuan, especially because Lu Xuan was kind to him in saving his life.
Cao Ang sorted out his words and said quickly: "Reply to father, because my little sister married Lu Xuan as a concubine, when I saw Lu Xuan, my attitude was very bad, and I directly threatened Lu Xuan, saying that if he didn't treat my little sister well,
, I won’t let him go.”
"Lu Xuan fought back on the spot. He was so sharp that it even made me feel ashamed."
"Finally, Lu Xuan said that if the little sister marries him, she is his woman. He will definitely treat the little sister well and keep her warm in the winter and not cold in the spring. Lu Xuan said that being good to the little sister has nothing to do with other factors, just because
My younger sister married him."
"I have a very bad attitude towards Lu Xuan, but for him to be like this, it's not easy."
Cao Ang talked eloquently and said: "It can be seen that Lu Xuan is a responsible and ambitious person. He did not have any dissatisfaction because of my bad attitude, and even deliberately did not mention anything about Yuan Shu."
"On the contrary, he specially reminded me to be careful. But I didn't take it to heart. On this basis, Lu Xuan still sent someone to follow and protect him secretly. Isn't such a person a gentleman?"
Cao Cao couldn't help but his cheeks twitched.
What Lu Xuan did was definitely not that of a gentleman. In fact, it was Lu Xuan's plan to show favor to Cao Ang.
This is the reason why Lu Xuan came to the rescue.
There was even more malicious speculation in Cao Cao's mind, whether Lu Xuan had released the news about Cao Ang and asked Yuan Shu to deal with Cao Ang and become a good guy again.
Cao Cao looked at Cao Ang's determined expression, but did not say anything about the speculation in his heart.
He sighed in his heart that his son was still too naive. After a trip, he was deceived by Lu Xuan and became lame. However, Lu Xuan did have a life-saving favor for Cao Ang. It was difficult for Cao Cao to refute this. Even if he said that it was Lu Xuan's
Even Cao Ang wouldn't believe it.
Because Lu Xuan really helped Cao Ang.
This is the result presented.
Cao Cao secretly scolded Lu Xuan for being cunning and cunning, but he still nodded and said: "What Lu Xuan is like as a person has nothing to do with us. You have a lot of things to do now, so go ahead and get busy."
"Here!"
Cao Ang bowed and left.
Cao Cao shook his head. He didn't care about Lu Xuan's affairs. Anyway, the people were delivered and the two parties were already married. He didn't need to worry about the situation in Yangzhou for the time being.
As for Yuan Shu?
A murderous intent flashed in Cao Cao's eyes.
Sooner or later Yuan Shu will be killed.
His son, Cao Cao, Yuan Shu, actually ambushed him directly, and he would not let him go. But before that, he still had to solve the problem in Xuzhou first, and then deal with Yuan Shu.
