A Dou can afford it

Cao Cao received three completely different messages within three days, from three different people. The first one came from Yuan Shu's personal soldier who hated him since he was a child and liked to make trouble for him all the time.It is said that Yuan Shu was arrested, and it was Liu Bei who arrested him. Now Yuan Jun is in a state of leaderless.

The second person who came to the news was Guo Jia, his counselor. Before he had time to lose his temper, his letter appeared on the table, which probably meant that even if Yuan Shu was arrested, they would not be without a fight. strength, and he also prepared an unexpected surprise, so that Cao Cao can rest easy.Cao Cao held his breath and drank cold water, but he was choked. It is said that several cups were dropped in the mansion that night, and there were more than two hands of young men who married their wives by reselling bronze wares.

And the third news, that is, the surprise that Guo Jia called, was Yuan Shao.

When Cao Cao knew that Yuan Shao was going to help them take Xuzhou in place of Yuan Shu, his face turned blue with joy.Undoubtedly, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were young, and their relationship is very good. Although they didn't wear a pair of pants, it was because of their family background. From the year they met, they called each other brothers and talked about their ambitions and dreams... But even so, it doesn't mean that they can go to a place called Xuzhou together without any grievances. Men are not so magnanimous.

Yuan Shao is now resolutely leading troops to help, isn't it just to let him announce to the other princes that Cao Cao's Qingzhou army has no ability to capture Xuzhou, and Yuan Shao will be needed without Yuan Shu. Only the Yuan brothers are the real strong? ?

But Guo Jia had already signed the agreement with Yuan Shao on his own behalf before that, and Cao Cao tightly pursed his lips while holding the handwritten and long-lasting signed document.

Guo Jia is very courageous, since he met in the Luoyang battle, he relied on his own favor to act more perversely, so he is not afraid... "Come on!"

"exist."

"Pass down the order and send envoys to meet Yuan Shao according to Feng Xiao's request, and discuss cooperation matters!"

"Yes!"

"Slow down!" Cao Cao threw a piece of seal on the ground heavily, "Send Huben guards to protect the safety of the military division, take the seal away at the same time, and give him the right to mobilize Huben."

"...Yes!" The eyes of the messenger under the seat flickered, and he was ordered to leave, but he sighed in his heart, the lord really dotes on Guo Junshi very much.It's a pity that he didn't see it. Cao Cao's face, which seemed angry and worried, had a smile that had nothing to do with surrender and compromise in the next second. Cao Cao thought that he really couldn't bear to blame Guo Jia, because Guo Jia knew his heart and face too well. How much is it worth, a thousand acres of fertile land or ten thousand troops?He had just conquered Qingzhou and then immediately attacked Xuzhou. The excessive momentum has already made many state herds fearful. He shot the first bird. When he has not yet obtained absolute status and strength, it is undoubtedly a big deal for him to be guarded by the princes. Unwise.And the joint Yuan Shu this time, in addition to allowing himself to divide his troops to recuperate and stabilize Qingzhou, is also to share the attention of the princes. Now that Yuan Shu is arrested, even if he has the power to sweep Xuzhou alone, Cao Cao can't do that, because it means exposure The hole card means to raise the vigilance of other wait-and-see princes.But Yuan Shu had to save him, so when he heard the news of Yuan Shu's arrest, Cao Cao was as troubled and annoyed as Guo Jia, and they were in a dilemma.

The appearance of Yuan Shao completely resolved their predicament. Even if most of Yuan Shao's troops were confined to Chang'an, he could completely mobilize the leaderless Yuan Shu army as the son of the Yuan family. At the same time, he had already occupied Luoyang. Yuan Shao, who is about to get Chang'an, is undoubtedly much more threatening than Cao Cao. He is the most suitable candidate to replace him as the focus.

Therefore, Cao Cao can be angry because of Guo Jia's unauthorized decision-making, angry at losing face, and even show a little dissatisfaction with Guo Jia in the army. These are all to protect this person-because Guo Jia himself probably knows that His current position in Cao Cao's army is the same as the image of Cao Cao in the hearts of the princes when he just captured Qingzhou, and he is too sharp.

Cao Cao couldn't just rely on one military division. The situation of the Qingzhou Army and the Xuzhou Army was completely different. If it is said that Adou used his emotions to attract those generals in the field, then Cao Cao used his fame, and the most important thing about fame is fairness.

It's time to get rid of those three monkeys with sharp claws.

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes slightly, Yuan Shao will arrive soon, at least in this regard, it is unreasonable that the [-] army has been delayed by thousands of people for so long, Yuan Shao is different from Yuan Shu, he can naturally see whether Cao Cao has tried his best, not to mention, it is still the current situation. At the critical point, the friendship from childhood to adulthood is enough for Cao Cao to understand what kind of state Yuan Shao is now after learning that Yuan Shu was arrested.

"Where is Dianwei Xu Chu?"

"Here!" Following Cao Cao's order, two men with radiant eyes and fierce spirits came over, one with a face like black charcoal and holding a huge axe, the other staring at a bull's nose and holding two small halberds in both hands, although his expression was submissive. , but just standing there can feel a sense of oppression, which is different from the murderous aura of generals fighting on the battlefield, but a purer barbaric power.They are not afraid, so they are not afraid.They are close body guards that Cao Cao took great pains to find. Although their ability to fight as generals has been reduced because they are not good at riding, their natural supernatural power is enough to make them stand out from the crowd in close combat, even Yuan Shao's second general Yan Liangwen Chou Dare to fight for its edge.

Cao Cao spared his life, so he always kept these two honest and loyal reckless men by his side, but now he had to use them.

"Both of you immediately gather three thousand soldiers and horses, post a battle post, and fight that Zhang Fei decisively!"

Cao Cao knew that when the Qingzhou Army marched into Xuzhou, Liu Bei sent his two brothers, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Zilong, to fight. He returned to a general named Huang Zhong to guard the base camp, but Huang Zhong had no military exploits or deeds before. Even though he knew that Liu Bei could not let a general who was not a threat stay behind, Cao Cao still looked down upon him. The three heroes dealt with each other, in addition to wanting to retain their strength and benefit from the fisherman, Cao Cao did not mean to subdue them.

Although Sanying even did not hesitate to fight Lu Bu to the death in order to rescue Liu Bei, but people will change, and if they can persuade even one of them to vote, their army will be even more powerful.

A thousand soldiers are easy to get but a general is hard to find. Cao Cao has been jealous of Liu Bei's good luck more than once, but now, there is no time to cast a net for him, Cao Cao can only kill him.

Zhang Fei's temper has gradually been figured out after the Qingzhou Army was provoked countless times. Cao Cao knew very well that they should have received internal orders to fight guerrilla warfare all the time and never confronted them head-on. Both the brother and his cousin Cao Ren held back their anger, and even went on the rampage over and over again knowing that the other party was in ambush.Cao Cao did not deny that the opponent's strategy was successful, but don't forget that they are angry, and Zhang Fei and the three may not be without it.

Which one is more aggrieved, the opponent hiding his head and showing his tail or his own hiding his head and showing his tail?It's just that the number of his own army is too large, and reason has been suppressing blood.So now, he sent the same 3000 troops and brought his two chief guards. With the number of people being about the same, would the situation change?

Zhang Fei accepted the challenge.

Cao Cao withdrew the central army led by the Xiahou brothers, leaving only a group of forward guards. Zhang Fei and his remnants, who were supposed to escape without a trace, finally stopped halfway.

It was Xu Chu who shot first. He roared, and his jacket was completely torn. At this moment, everyone understood why this big man didn't wear armor to fight. His muscles bulged inch by inch with the roar, and the burst veins showed It was full of power, and Zhang Fei lowered the emotion in his eyes.

He changed his normal style and didn't roar like Xu Chu, but Zhang Ba Snake Spear held the long ax equally sharply, his arms tensed, and he turned from defense to offense.

The dozens of days of guerrilla fighting brought them not only casualties and defeat, but also countless decisive battles between life and death.

Go deep into the enemy camp, be besieged, break out, ambush.This is what Zhang Fei has experienced since the start of the war from the border of Qingzhou to the north-central part of Xuzhou.The soldiers who came out with him at the beginning have long since died, and new batches of soldiers have been replaced. Every time he breaks through, countless comrades will fall beside him. This is the first time Zhang Fei has learned, No more tears.

He used to be the son of a rich family in a town, he didn't want to sell pork, he wanted to be a hero in troubled times, he and his elder brother and his second brother worshiped each other, and left his hometown with full of blood in his arms, he shot eight snakes with a pole in his hand The spear crisscrossed the battlefield, but when the initial passion passed, he finally began to understand what it means for a man to bleed but not cry.

Yesterday I received a letter from Zhuge Liang, asking them to use their last force to create mudslides and block Cao Jun's last pounce.Zhang Fei knew that the soldiers standing behind him would soon disappear.Even if he himself, whether he can go back alive to see the warm smiling face of his elder brother is still unknown.It's just that Zhuge Liang, the military adviser who came out halfway, did not live up to their expectations. Yuan Jun was defeated and Yuan Shu was arrested. The plan was half successful. He would save Xuzhou for his elder brother. Their sacrifice of thousands of men was not in vain.

Zhang Fei was not afraid of death, it was just a chance encounter that he saw two worthy opponents today after being exhausted, and he suddenly wanted to pull two backs.

This man named Xu Chu possessed extraordinary strength. Zhang Fei felt his hands tremble slightly. It was a kind of convulsion caused by excessive force. In the past five hours, his hands had already pried away hundreds of rocks. crack.

"Haha, okay, come again!" But every time there was an impact, Zhang Fei still didn't dodge or dodge. The three thousand soldiers were clearly targeting them. Since Cao Cao dared to do it, he had to let him know what it means to have nothing to do back!

"Kill!" The most direct weakness of Xu Chu's opening and closing moves is the weakening of defense. If it was Zhang Fei before, he might have fought him for [-] rounds, but now, Zhang Fei just wants to win.

Perhaps it was this guerrilla warfare that made this hero, who will aspire to the list of super generals in the future, really grow up. Zhang Fei hit Xu Chu's chest with every move. the opponent's chest.

Whoosh!

Two flying halberds rushed towards him. Zhang Fei dodged again and again, but his right hand was still shot by the small halberd.At the same time, Zhang Fei's eyes locked on the man standing not far away.

Zhang Fei had been wary of this person from the very beginning. There were two generals who led the troops to provoke this time. Although they had never met each other in the previous battle, Zhang Fei knew their identities very well. A fierce general, a tiger idiot Xu Chu, and the ancient evil Lai Dianwei.

Liu Bei likes to mention them very much. If it is said that Cao Cao's elder brother is a secretive look, then for these two, it can be said to be all kinds of envy and hatred.There is no protagonist who does not want to have two strong guards who can fight for him to the last moment. A Dou gritted his teeth every time Mrs. Yueying mentioned that if it hadn’t been for Dianwei Cao Cao’s beard who had suffered a thousand knives, he would have died on the woman’s belly. When this happened, I was very impressed by the expression of wanting to use my hands and feet to drag my two guards out and beat them up.It's a pity that he has forgotten that he is his own father now, and his sour emotions towards other people will inevitably arouse the awkward emotions of his two uncles and his two younger brothers.

Zhang Fei would never admit that he decided to stay and fight because he felt jealous from the inside out because he recognized the four characters Dian Wei Xu Chu on the battle post.He is now an adult, although he has not married a wife yet, but do you think he is eight years old? Eight years old? !childish!

"Why, do you want the two to go together?" Zhang Fei raised his eyebrows and looked at the two big men who were waiting solemnly.When listening to the elder brother’s bedtime story, he said that the two big men were abducted by Cao Cao by catching tigers. The only difference is that Dian Wei caught a white tiger and Xu Chu caught a yellow tiger, and the elder brother once He said very seriously that Dianwei's white tiger was half the size of Xu Chu's, but Xu Chu put a rope with a bell on it in advance (to facilitate tracking).

"Hit me!" Although he was big, Dian Wei's speed was not slow at all. Zhang Fei was in a daze. He had already exchanged positions with Xu Chu and stood in the center.Zhang Fei picked up the weapon that had fallen to the ground with a single hook, and fought head-on again without bandaging the wound.

The wound on the tiger's mouth opened all the way, but the attack was kept at the right angle due to the large adjustment of the arm. Zhang Fei would lose, but he didn't expect that the opponent would really attack both together.

This is like catching a turtle in a urn.

He has only [-] soldiers under his command, and he will never return against the opponent's [-] troops. Even if one or two escape by chance and spread the news about today's Cao Jun's disregard of morals and morals, the victory or defeat is already determined.However, what Zhang Fei envisioned before was a glorious defeat, but it was a dream.

He didn't expect that the opponents Cao Cao sent this time were no longer two brave generals, but two beasts.

In the law of beasts, only by defeating the enemy can one survive.

puff!

Xu Chu's huge ax pierced into Zhang Fei's back, and Zhang Fei knelt down on one knee, parrying Dian Wei's blow, and then spat out a mouthful of blood, and the supporting left arm snapped.

The [-] soldiers he brought with him began to charge, but Zhang Fei couldn't say a word about retreating. They were elites and dead soldiers. Even if they never returned, they would die with honor.It was just given to them by their master before the war, the warmest smile in life, and the small bag of soil that was placed on the chest close to the heart, their hometown and homeland.

Zhang Fei finally had a chance to retreat. He got on his horse without hesitation, clamped the weapon with his dark red right arm, and stood out from the encirclement.But at the same time as the crowd of soldiers were shaken away, the mount under his crotch was cut off and retreated.

The black horse let out a mournful cry and fell heavily to the ground.Behind him was Xu Chu, who was also covered in wounds. Warm horse blood splashed all over his body and face, and washed away the blood scabs that had condensed on the wounds on his body before, revealing bright red wounds, and his face was expressionless.

The lord gave an order, and no one would stay.

Zhang Fei could only run.

He stabbed the Zhangba Snake Spear deeply into the horse's belly and used it as a shield to block Dian Wei's new round of flying halberd attacks. There were 70 people around him.

They couldn't run to the unprepared mudslide canyon, they had to take a detour back to the stronghold. Cao Cao's vanguard troops were still stationed on the hill in front. As long as they were a little closer, they would no longer be greeted by just a few thousand people.

Zhang Fei dodged the ax that could split the rock in embarrassment. He felt the wound on Xu Chu's chest open, and the blood sprayed on him, bringing a little strength to his cold limbs.

Too much blood loss, Zhang Fei thought.At this time, there were 50 people around him.

When the opponent has no archers, entering the jungle is the best choice, provided they can distance themselves.

Is this why the opponent chose to kill the horse in the first place?These 3000 people turned out to be infantry.Zhang Fei kept walking, and Zhang Ba Snake Spear, who had been proficient in his hand all along, seemed a bit cumbersome, because the two lunatics were chasing him.

Cao Cao has not given up his plan to find their stronghold these two days, so Zhang Fei knows that he can't go back. The stronghold is full of injured brothers who are resting. Even if they are all injured now, as long as they can move, they will not Use the power of the villages and towns under Mi Zhu before, and when Cao Cao really wants to attack, the people are nothing. No one will say that the princes are cruel because the army slaughtered several villages.

Finally breaking into the jungle, Zhang Fei couldn't help but rolled on the spot. The close contact between his body and the ground made him so relaxed that he didn't want to get up, but the inertia still made him stumble to stand up and continue running. At this time, there were 20 people beside him.

The infantry rushed into the jungle, causing the original gloomy green to be brutally divided into small red and green pieces. The bloody light of the weapon cut through the tender branches, and occasionally splashed a pool of blood.

Ten soldiers decided to leave in the opposite direction to fight for a chance of survival for them.

Dian Wei and Xu Chu are like two huge siege machines at this time, stabbing forward with wide open and closed. The obstruction of the bushes does not seem to affect their innate sharp eyesight, and it is their instinct to catch prey.

Three waves of aimless flying halberds left Zhang Fei with only two people.

"General, in front of you is the dangerous pit dug before. There are caves and passages there." After cutting off the branches beside him, Zhang Fei had parted ways with the last two soldiers. His eyes were a little dark, but he couldn't die.

He promised his elder brother that he would not die, and there were still soldiers waiting for him. If he hadn't returned, how would they have the morale to continue fighting tens of thousands of Cao troops.

The last two grunts, if Zhang Fei didn't feel the pain of Dian Wei's tentative flying halberd piercing into the flesh, he rushed out of the jungle and slid down the hillside.

It was all downhill, following the momentum, Zhang Fei rolled into the deep pit dug before without any effort, but he no longer had the extra strength to climb into the hidden passage.The heartbeat became stronger at this time, and there was a voice in his heart that kept urging Zhang Fei to go quickly. He didn't have much time, and Dian Wei and the others would leave the bushes soon, so he had to hide first.The soft sand here will temporarily cover his bloodstains, and cooperate with the dense grass blades to create a chance for him to escape.

But I really can't move.Zhang Fei lay on the ground thinking.

At this time, the second brother's army should have retreated. If Dian Wei and Xu Chu's army found them at that time, with hundreds of soldiers holding hoes and iron drills, I am afraid they would be slaughtered without even needing to fight. At the same time, their plan to loosen rocks and create mudslides will also be discovered.Fortunately, there is still him, but who asked him to take over the patrol duty just now?

It's bad luck, it's all Zhao Zilong's fault, he shouldn't be allowed to rest because his dark circles are heavier than his own, if grandpa and I slept for two hours, wouldn't it be impossible to fight against two.

By the way, those two idiots are really slow, why haven't they found them yet?

Zhang Fei seemed to hear a rustling sound in his ears, and he was instantly dragged up and lay down on some uneven object, bumped and tossed.

Oops, I forgot where the Zhangba Snake Spear fell.Zhang Fei thought in a daze, but his eyes were completely dark.What kind of death is this? It really makes me want to vomit.

base camp.

Cao Cao took a sip of water lightly, waiting for the return of Dian and Wei, but when it was dark, he did not receive the expected head of Zhang Fei.

However, the two guards came back, with a group of exhausted soldiers, still in a wooden manner, with wounds all over their bodies and blood on their faces.

Zhang Fei is very powerful.Cao Cao twirled the cup faintly, but his two guards fought so desperately, no matter who they fought with, they would get such hideous wounds, if it was another general, they would have bled to death long ago, but Cao Cao was not in a hurry.He never thought of asking these two generals to change their style of play, on the contrary, this was their advantage.Their extraordinary physical strength and recovery speed gave them the capital to fight for their lives. When the other party pierced his flesh, Dian Wei and Xu Chu were able to take the other's life.

"General Guan is here, please sit down quickly." With a pleasant smile, Cao Cao stood up and greeted the door. According to the plan, Dian Wei and the others couldn't kill Zhang Fei, unless there was something wrong, but now it seems that, What a pleasant surprise.The guard Ren opened the curtain, and a young man with handsome and sword-brows walked in. If it wasn't for his hands tied behind his back, the servant would have thought it was some new general appointed by the lord.

Guan Yu stood there straight, without saying a word or moving.Cao Cao brought the tea already, and sat back with a smile on his face.

After a while, the fellow spies reported all the experience of Dian Wei and Dian Wei, and now they are still kneeling outside the door, waiting for the punishment that will be handed down for not completing the task.

When Dian Wei and Xu Chu rushed out of the jungle, they couldn't find Zhang Fei, but there were not many roads to walk on this hill, Zhang Fei was exhausted, he couldn't run very far, and he was alone, so he would definitely find him.They planned to divide their troops into two groups.Just at the fork, I met a person standing alone in the center.

This person is nine feet long, with fat lips, red phoenix eyes, and crouching silkworm eyebrows. His appearance is dignified and majestic. Just standing quietly by himself, it is like a thousand troops standing beside him, making people dare not act rashly.

When Dian Wei and Wei stood still, the Qinglong Yanyue Saber had already struck, and the cold light suddenly appeared. The fierce attack made Dian Wei and Dian Wei feel a heartfelt tremor. They almost did not hesitate. They had already fought together, and Xu Chu was seriously injured. Dian Wei could only be the main attacker. The opponent's attacks were not as brave as Zhang Fei's before, but they were more continuous. The constant killer moves made Dian Wei unable to let go of the flying halberd for a while, and several marks were added to his body.

The battle was in full swing, but Dian Wei discovered something in the attacks again and again, and the opponent was stalling for time.

Yes, thousands of people had already surrounded them. The reason why Dian Wei was willing to give up looking for Zhang Fei and stay to fight was because the opponent was Guan Yu, who was also a Sanying.Although they couldn't fulfill the lord's order, another threat to kill the lord was not a bad idea. This was their most direct thought.But now, while Guan Yu was doing his best to hack and kill with them, he actually had other things in mind.It wasn't until an eagle's howl suddenly came from a distance that the man who had never stopped attacking suddenly seemed to lose all his strength and stopped moving.

Dian Wei stopped Xu Chu from slashing, because the man was no longer a threat.The long and fierce battle had almost torn the muscles of his arms, but no one could forget that his continuous attacks, which seemed like miracles in the storm, had suppressed them without the power to fight back. Perhaps the lord prefers live prey.Dian Wei remembered Cao Cao's exclamation every time, and stopped his movements.

"Since General Guan is willing to come to the Qingzhou military camp, Cao must treat him well. I have heard for a long time that General Guan is very brave. Meng De admired the three heroes in Luoyang City that day. Come, come, and untie General Guan."

Cao Cao waved back the guards who wanted to stop him. Guan Yu's willingness to come to his camp was indeed beyond his expectations. As for Sanying, he had all the information, and Guan Yu was righteous, so he would never betray Liu Bei easily. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, When forced into a desperate situation, I am afraid that they will choose to burn everything together. Cao Cao is also ready to sacrifice. No matter what happens, Liu Bei cannot be made stronger again. Zhao Yun put a lot of effort into it, and this time Guan Yu's willingness to capture him without a fight was undoubtedly an expression of softening his attitude, which surprised and delighted Cao Cao, but he didn't understand why.But being able to get a living is naturally much better than a useless head. Cao Cao thinks that he has a superb personality, as long as the other party is not dead, Cao Cao believes that in time, he will be able to gain a new good general.Therefore, whether the other party is true or false, courtesy is the best choice.

So even if Guan Yu kept silent, Cao Cao was not annoyed, but let go of Guan Yu and arranged a tent for him to heal his injuries. The torn muscles in his hands are not so easy to heal. Cao Cao is surrounded by heavy guards, so he is not afraid that Guan Yu will escape. , so there is no rush to subdue it for a while, you have to see it clearly first.

"Come on, take Guard Dian and Guard Xu down to rest!" With a leather whip, he whipped the two big men kneeling on the ground covered in blood twice symbolically, and Cao Cao sent them down to rest in a gentle voice. If you don't complete the task, you should be punished. This is the rule of raising pets, and Cao Cao will never hesitate.

Today, Zhao Zilong still wants to draw it slowly.

Feeling that his mood, which had just been suppressed, became active again because of Guan Yu's arrival, Cao Cao frowned slightly. Everyone has a love for talents, but he just has a little more. Zhao Yun is fine for a few days.

A Douxiong Balu Chapter 73: It has been three days since I received a letter from Uncle Guan Zhang and Master Zilong. Although there were only a few words before, they would fly the eagle to pass the letter on time the next day to report that they are safe.

A Douwo sulked in the tent.

Kong Ming lifted the tent and walked in.Give A Dou a small piece of broken skin with two dots and a circle drawn on it.

A Dou opened his mouth and smiled, happily following Mr. Kong Ming out for dinner.

Two dots represent the brother's well-being, and one circle represents waiting for reunion.

Lu Bu hesitated for a while, and finally decided not to make things difficult for Zhuge Liang in this matter, although he clearly saw that the other party tore off a small piece of leather from the battle report in the morning to draw pictures...so the piece in his hand was pinched from yesterday. Can today's graffiti be thrown away? Trouble.
