Great Wei Nengchen

Besides, the two of them still have a little bit of selfishness, they just don't want the troops behind to see corpses all over the valley, this is the shame of their defeat!

Although everyone knows about the defeat of the two, but knowing and seeing are two different things. Burying the bones can at least cover up the shame, right?

The Chinese army was busy picking up the bones, but did not come out for a long time. Zhang He's front army had to stop and guard the position at the valley entrance. Gao Lan's rear army was even more unlucky, because the Chinese army blocked the road, and they also got into chaos... …

"Boom!—Boom! Boom!"

"Kill!--Kill! Kill!"

"Listen, generals of the Cao army—if you surrender, you will not die, if you resist in a corner, you will be killed!"

........................

An unexpected thing happened. With the sound of war drums, countless Jingzhou soldiers poured out from the dense forests on both sides of the valley, swooping down like fierce tigers. It was exactly the same as the situation a few days ago...

The Central Route Army was scattered all over the place without any precautions. They were suddenly caught off guard. The team was cut into several sections and it was difficult to coordinate with each other. The soldiers and horses suffered heavy casualties and fell into a desperate situation...

"We're pigs...we're dumber than pigs...pigs aren't as stupid as we are—crack! crack!"

Seeing the ambush soldiers appearing around, Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen wanted to cry, but kept slapping themselves. They jumped into the same place and the same trap twice, and the pigs would laugh their ass off!

The matter has come to this point, regretting is useless, under the strong desire to survive, they still draw their swords, gather the soldiers around, and fight desperately!

"The front and rear armies, return to the division for rescue - kill!"

Seeing that the Central Route Army was ambushed, Zhang He and Gao Lan hurriedly led the troops to rescue them, one after the other charged into the encirclement. The two of them knew very well that the Prime Minister asked Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen to come with the army, hoping that they would make some contributions and wash away the shame of defeat. Woolen cloth!

One is the adopted son of the prime minister, and the other is the nephew of the prime minister's clan. If there is something wrong, how will Zhang Yun and Gao Lan explain it? Even if they risk their lives, they must be rescued, which is a repayment for the kindness of the prime minister!

At the same time, Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen also gathered their troops and tried their best to break out of the siege, trying to join the front and rear armies and reverse the unfavorable situation!

However, Xu Shu had already made arrangements and set up a net of heaven and earth. How could they let them break out? Instead, they took advantage of the terrain and kept throwing boulders, rolling logs, and rain of arrows to kill and wound Cao's troops...

"Strike bravely, rescue the Chinese army - kill!"

"Don't be insane, the enemy general, Guan will come to meet you - look at the knife!"

Gao Lan brandished an iron gun and led his subordinates to charge bravely. He broke through several lines of defense of the Jingzhou Army. He was about to join the Central Army when he was suddenly blocked by a group of troops. It is the second master Guan Yunchang!

The two of them didn't talk too much, they mobilized their horses, brandished their weapons, and quickly fought together... only saw the knives coming to block, the guns going to the knives, the clanging sound was endless, and the fighting was extremely fierce!

The soldiers under the two men also came to one place, chasing each other in the jungle, and fighting bloody, only the dead bodies rolled, blood spattered, severed limbs, broken intestines, and broken bones were all over the place!

As the saying goes, a soldier is the prestige of a general, and a general is the courage of a soldier. A duel between two generals can affect the morale of the soldiers and thus determine the outcome of the battlefield!

In all honesty, Gao Lan's martial arts skills are good. Under normal circumstances, he could have fought Guan Yu for dozens of rounds, but today's situation is unfavorable. One is the long journey, lack of people and horses, and the other is lying down in the valley and panicking. After one round, I was a little overwhelmed!

"Qinglong's sword---slash!"

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Guan Yu attacked several times in a row, and the Qinglong Yanyue Saber was as fast as lightning, breaking through the iron spear defense in an instant, and was slashing on Gao Lan's left shoulder...

The big knife was extremely sharp, cutting through the armor, battle robe, human body... It entered from the left shoulder, exited from the right rib, and hit the horse sitting on it. Poor Gao Lan and his mount were all split into two pieces, and he died instantly!

"General Gao was beheaded... General Gao was beheaded by a man with a red face and long beard... run, everyone!"

Gao Lan's blood was splashed on the battlefield, and his subordinates were in a state of confusion. They either knelt on the ground, begging for life, or discarded their knives and guns, and ran away with their lives... Guan Yu took the opportunity to lead his troops to chase and kill, and captured countless!

Gao Lan was defeated and killed, and Zhang Yun was alone, so he had to fight and retreat. He led the troops out of the valley, and returned to the camp to report the news.

As for Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen, after the last defeat, they were very experienced in escaping. They tore off their armor, wiped their faces with mud, got into the deep mountains and dense forests, and ran back to the camp... As for the people they led The Central Route Army, of course, was completely wiped out!

Chapter 1214 Seven days later, fight to the death!

"More than [-] soldiers were lost, Zizhong was lost countless times, and General Gao Lan was killed on the battlefield... This mat-weaver and shoe-weaving freak with dangling ears and shoulders, I swear against you!"

Hearing the news of the second loss of soldiers and generals in the valley of Laojunfeng, Cao Cao's face was full of black lines, and he was burning with anger. Regardless of the demeanor of the prime minister, he jumped up and cursed for a long time...

Moreover, the language is so vulgar and unbearable that the scribes can't write, so they can only use the Spring and Autumn style of writing to annotate, which roughly means: Prime Minister Cao very urgently hopes to have some super-friendly male and female relationships with Liu Bei's female elders!

After cursing for a long time, Cao Cao's breath became smoother, and he felt a deep sense of powerlessness. Several figures flashed in his heart: Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Xun You...and Xiao Yi!

In the past, in the Southern and Northern Wars, Cao Cao presided over the overall situation, Guo Jia strategized, Xiao Yi led the battle, and Xun Yu and Xun You sat in the rear... Everyone worked together and cooperated closely, making the chariot of the Caoying Group an invincible existence in the world!

It's a pity that Guo Jia fell on the journey, Xun Yu and Xun You committed suicide one after another, Xiao Yigong was so powerful that he dared not reuse it, leaving Cao Cao alone to support the overall situation, and it was inevitable to worry about one thing and lose another. !

Although Cao Ying has hundreds of thousands of strong soldiers, it lacks clever advisers-staff military aircraft, and wise generals-command in front of the battle. Naturally, it can't beat the Liu Bei Group, which is weak but full of talents!

"My lord prime minister, please give an order to let Da Sima fight against Liu Bei. He will definitely defeat the enemy and heal the shame!"

"Both battles were defeated, and the loss of soldiers and generals has already affected the morale of the army. Only the great Sima can turn the tide!"

..............................

The counselors gathered around, consoling and persuading Cao Cao to take care of his health, but at the same time bringing up the old story again, hoping to let Xiao Yi step out to solve the immediate problem--Liu Bei Group!

After two defeats, Cao Jun lost more than 5 horses and countless weapons and supplies. Although the Caoying Group has a strong family background, it is also a bit bruised. If there is another defeat, the Southern Expedition will be abandoned halfway!

"This old man has ruled the world for decades. He has managed to succeed in every scheme and win every battle. Lu Bu, Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao, and Gongsun Zan were all defeated one after another. How dare you compete with me as a weaver of mats and shoes?

The order was passed on, the whole army set up camp, went to the foot of the Laojun Peak, and fought to the death with the enemy. Those who killed Liu Bei were rewarded with ten thousand gold, made a township, and promoted to three ranks in succession. Those who captured Xu Shu and Kong Ming alive - the reward was doubled. , must be caught alive! "

Cao Cao pondered for a while, gritted his molars, and twisted his thighs several times, but he still didn't accept everyone's suggestion. Liu Bei's power expansion was nothing more than a separatist regime. If Xiao Yi succeeds, he will sweep the whole world!

But among the many generals in the battalion, none of them were the opponents of Liu Bei and Xu Shu, so Cao Cao decided to conscript himself, but before the army went out, there was still one important thing to do-to award meritorious deeds and punish crimes, and to boost morale!

"In order to save you two useless people, I lost a general of the old man, you still have the face to come back, why don't you die--crack! Crack!

Starting today, you will be reduced to the ranks of Chinese army grooms, eat the worst military rations, live in the worst shacks, and do the dirtiest work, reflect on it... Get lost! "

The first thing is to punish the crime. Cao Cao picked up the horse whip and whipped Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen who fled back for the second time. The whip was bloody and their clothes were torn. Then they were punished as grooms and rushed to live in the stables. Severe punishment!

But smart people know that the prime minister is called punishment, but in fact he loves it. It's just that the way is special, and it can fool many people's eyes!

Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen were defeated twice, and Gao Lan was indirectly killed. If it was any other general, their heads would have fallen to the ground long ago. It's not necessarily a bad thing!

The ancients said it well: Heaven will send great missions to people, and they must first suffer from their will, exhaust their muscles and bones, starve their bodies, and empty their bodies... Now let Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen suffer a little bit, so that they can hone their will, Stimulate his motivation to make progress, coupled with Cao Cao's personal training, may he become a great weapon in the future?

"The defeat in the ambush this time is due to the incompetence of the Cao family's children, and has nothing to do with General Jun Yi. If the general hadn't risked his life to fight, none of the soldiers would have returned. It's a pity for General Gao Lan. "

The next step is to reward him. Cao Cao helped Zhang He up, comforted him with good words, gave him wine to calm the shock, and asked someone to fetch new armor and battle robes, and replaced them with his own hands!

"The prime minister is so kind and virtuous, and the general will swear to repay it with death!"

I have to admit that Cao Cao's ability to win people's hearts is no worse than Liu Bei's. Tears filled Zhang He's eyes, and he knelt down and swore to repay him with death.

After pacifying the heroes, it was time to discuss sending troops to revenge. The two defeats made everyone understand that the Liu Bei Group is not easy to mess with, and they must think of a perfect plan. Didn’t they discuss a few words? See you outside the camp gate! '

"The big-eared thief sent someone here at this time. Could it be that he is laughing at me for waiting, or has other tricks?"
