Fall in love with the technology tree [Three Kingdoms]
Chapter 176 Ambush
Wancheng is a basin, sixty miles northeast of it, it enters the mountainous area of Qifeng Mountain.Qifeng Mountain is famous for its seven peaks lined up in a line, which looks like a pen holder from a distance.This forest-covered green hill is not only the birthplace of many streams, but also a dangerous place for military strategists in ancient times.
As early as the pre-Qin period, the state of Chu built the Great Wall in the Qifeng mountain area, known as the Great Wall of Chu in history.These ancient city walls, because they are located in the inland area, failed to become part of the Great Wall of the North and were abandoned year by year.After nearly 400 years of loneliness in the Han Dynasty, there is no trace of the beacon tower and the city guard house. Only the strongest mother wall remains, which still stands in the virgin forest and becomes an excellent place to ambush.
Twilight had already fallen, but Cao Cao, who was supposed to have rushed back to Xu County, squatted behind a stone wall, staring at the mountain road below with his dark eyes, wondering what he was thinking.
No one dared to urge him to go on the road, time seemed to stand still.Until the scout's rustling footsteps broke the silence.
"My lord, as expected, Zhang Xiu has come after me."
Cao Cao said "hmm".
"Master... my lord?"
Cao Cao suddenly let out a short laugh from his nose: "Zhang Xiu is a caring child, so I can see Asheng tomorrow morning." Having said that, there was no smile in Cao Cao's eyes.After waking up from the wine, he figured out what was wrong with Zhang Xiu.If the news of Ah Sheng's serious injury hadn't come in time, I'm afraid he would have lost in Wancheng in a daze.
Not only is surrender without a fight making people feel uncertain, but victory without a fight is equally unstable.Xiliang soldiers speak by strength, after all, they have to fight a battle to convince others.
Xia Houyuan touched it at this time. "Brother," he lowered his voice, but couldn't hide his anxiety, "Brother Yuan Rang is in the rear, I'm afraid he won't be able to resist Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu came prepared, but Yuan Rang's soldiers were all drank..."
Cao Cao squinted his eyes and looked at it, as if the sunset would be lit up again in the south.As the minutes passed, Xia Houyuan jumped so anxiously that the armor plate was almost torn apart by him.Cao Cao finally let go: "Forget it, you take 200 people to meet Yuan Rang."
"Only 200 people?!"
Cao Cao glanced over and said, "Remember, when you receive someone, don't love to fight, retreat here."
Xia Houyuan blinked several times, looked at the terrain and Cao Cao: "Oh - I understand, we must be pretending to be confused." Then he ran away and disappeared.
Cao Cao sighed, if it wasn't for his brother, he would have used it as cannon fodder.It's just that Xiahou Dun is different after all, and he has to take him back at the risk of being seen through the ambush.But having said that, if he is really seen through, he will fight an encounter. His purpose is to fight Zhang Xiu, not to wipe out Zhang Xiu's troops.
There are many people, and the front is justified.But if the tricks are successful, he will be able to meet Ah Sheng as soon as possible.Thinking of A Sheng, Cao Cao frowned into a pimple. The news sent by Xun You made it very clear that A Sheng was cut in the chest by Zhang Fei with an axe. It has been separated forever.
Liu Bei is so bold!Cao Cao's heart was turbulent, together with questions such as "Why Ah Sheng appeared on the border of Xuzhou" and "What happened to Zhang Fei to attack Ah Sheng", it almost burst his mind.Probably because the twins are connected by blood, he actually felt a dull pain in his chest, and his limbs were cold. If it wasn't for the support of his reason as a coach, he would not want to do anything but murder to vent his anger.
The sky was completely dark, and the faint fire and shouts from the south were so eye-catching in the dark mountains and forests.Cao Cao closed his eyes, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and forcibly suppressed all distracting thoughts. When he opened his eyes again, there was only a chilling light in his pupils. "Command the troops, shout!"
"Help, someone is calling!"
"It's Zhang Xiu, it's Zhang Xiu——"
"It's reversed, find the lord quickly."
"Protect the lord, protect the lord!"
"Three teams, follow me to support the rear army! Kill!"
"My knife, I can't find my knife!"
"what--"
……
Cao Cao held the saber in his hand, and watched the fire from the south getting closer.The sound of horseshoes was like a bell, and finally the first figure who ran under the Chu city wall appeared, it was Xiahou Dun who was covered in blood.Followed by a group of remnants and defeated generals, there were less than 7000 people left in the rear army, which originally had 2000 to [-] people, and the banner was crumbling.
This time, those who were the most drunk and floated the highest were all released by Cao Cao.Except to confuse Zhang Xiu, just take it as a gift. "Drunken soldiers in the enemy camp deserve to die. This is a good luck for you and me, and it is also a lesson." Cao Cao said to Dian Wei, "So what if you are ten times stronger than others? You will lose if you underestimate the enemy."
Dian Wei was completely sober from the wine, and the big man who was nearly two meters tall lowered his head like a child who did something wrong. "It's the last general's fault."
Cao Cao shook his head: "It was my fault. Ah Sheng saved my life again."
In the time it took to say a few words, Zhang Xiu's former army had already chased the remnant soldiers of Xiahou Brothers and came to the city wall of Chu.
Although Cao Jun's panicked shouts were heard in front of him, there were no fires or people.Zhang Xiu's heart skipped a beat, and he was about to gather his troops when he heard torches lit up on the hillsides on both sides, and the "creak" sound of the bow and arrow being pulled, which made one's teeth ache.
"General Zhang, you are safe and sound."
Zhang Xiu recognized the voice, and immediately shouted: "Cao Cao, you insulted my aunt and dare to stay!"
Cao Cao said "tsk tut" twice: "General Zhang be careful, the reputation of the widow's family can't stand your toss."
Zhang Xiu's canthus was about to burst, and he was about to speak when an arrow shot through the brim of his hat.
"I really admire General Zhang, but since the matter has come to this, let's do it."
On Qifeng Mountain in the dark night, the screams of killing shook the sky, and blood was flying.Even the moon hanging high in the sky could not illuminate the hell on earth, but was forced to shake by the howling of death, and hid behind the dark clouds.
At the ugly moment in the middle of the night, Wancheng government office.
Jia Xu is tidying up maps and documents in the study.Candles cast his shadow on the wooden floor.Because the sources of light are too diverse, the shadow looks much thinner than the real person, like an excited ghost.
"Quickly, put this away. And that one. Oh, how clumsy you are, you don't need calligraphy and painting." Jia Xu's voice rang from one end to the other.
In troubled times, Jia Xu would not get married if he had a plan. Even though he is over 45 years old, he still has no children, and only a few servants accompany him for a long time.However, these servants never understood Jia Xu's behavior.
"Master, are you moving house?"
"Moving? Oh, it's not moving." Jia Xu put the lid on the rattan box.
"It's not in a hurry to move."
"What do you know?" Jia Xu stood up, moved over to a brazier, picked out some paper, bamboo slips and silk, and burned them clean bit by bit.While burning, he explained: "The general has been gone for five hours, and there is still no news in the middle of the night, which means that he has encountered an ambush. I have already said that although Cao Cao is concerned about Xu County, as long as he He is awake, and the probability of getting a bargain from him is less than [-]%."
This made the servants panic: "If General Zhang loses, what will Wancheng do?"
Jia Xu rubbed her face: "What should I do with Wancheng? I have never missed the advice I gave Zhang Xiu. Next, I just need to see which one is more livable, Juancheng or Jiangling."
The servants looked at each other in blank dismay, but they were probably used to their master's style of being wise and safe: "Then, do you want to surrender to Cao Cao and go to Juancheng, or go to Jiangling and join Liu Biao?"
Jia Xu showed an expression that he didn't know whether to cry or laugh: "Withdrawing from the wine and gentle village in an instant, even the bad news of his compatriots can't shake his judgment. There are too many talents, and I can't show my ability. But this is the only way, it's better than losing my life elsewhere."
Therefore, when Cao Cao pressed Zhang Xiubu back to the Wancheng wall, he met Jia Xu who opened the door to offer the city.
The morning star has risen high, but the white belly in the east has not yet appeared.As the northern hemisphere gradually enters winter, the time of dawn is getting later and later.Three or four o'clock in the morning is the coldest and darkest time of the night.Not even the battalion of torches could dispel the chill.
In the light of the fire, Cao Cao's outline showed a fierceness that had never been seen before. "What a trick to surrender. Jia Wenhe, unless you say that you are the grandson of Duan Gong [Note 1], I will definitely take your head."
Jia Wenhe: "Although I am not Duan Gong's grandson, I am a counselor in Wancheng. It's just a matter of eating the emperor's salary and being loyal to the emperor. And the whole world is watching your attitude towards the soldiers. You can't kill me."
Cao Cao laughed out loud, it was hard to imagine that he still had the expression of wanting to eat people just a second ago.After laughing, he jumped off the horse and untied Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu himself. "A villain stabbed my brother. I'm going to attack them now. I want to use General Zhang's force and Jia Wenhe's resourcefulness. Is that okay?"
This attitude is also absolute.Jia Xu agreed in a hurry and asked for a house in Juancheng.Zhang Xiu twisted her body, and then Jia Xu poked her waist: "You should answer me."
Zhang Xiu pursed her lips: "Then what about my aunt?"
Feelings You really have deep affection for your charming aunt, you didn't take the opportunity to find an excuse to hit me.Cao Cao resisted the urge to roll his eyes, and said, "Your aunt has a plan for you, and she came to me specially to discuss, and wants to marry your daughter to my son. From now on, you and I will be brothers, and your aunt will naturally be my aunt. As for the aunt Myself, the country has died, and there are many great Confucian generals in Xu County who lack mistresses, as long as you think it is suitable, I will personally go to the matchmaker."
"You do not……"
Cao Cao raised his hand and swore without blushing, "If I do anything against etiquette, I will be struck by lightning."
Only then did Zhang Xiu kneel down and salute, looking very ashamed: "Mr. Cao is generous, it's because I have a dirty mind."
Cao Cao... Cao Cao secretly wiped the cold sweat off his brow.But immediately his mind was filled with another matter: Ah Sheng.According to rumors, Ah Sheng is the front line of life and death.
After Cao Cao, who had not slept all night, sent some soldiers to stay in Wancheng, he took Zhang Xiu, Jia Xu and others on the return journey.The fast horse gallops on the mountain road in Nanyang. This kind of dirt road is incomparable with the new roads in Yan, Qing, and Henan. It is bumpy and damaged, and there is a risk of people turning their backs on their backs at any time.
But Cao Cao's riding speed can be said to have reached the limit.A lot of sweat dripped into the soil with the sound of the whip, and it was unprecedented to be able to force the shadow of Cao Cao's mount to such a degree.Without the threat of chasing soldiers, and without the political demands of persuading the captives to surrender, Cao Cao's emotions were gradually released in this crazy gallop.
Eight hours after receiving the news, his eye sockets began to slowly turn red.There seemed to be a huge block of ice on his chest, and only the sunshine of Xu County could melt this huge block of ice.
[Note 1]: When Jia Xu was young, he was kidnapped by rebel ethnic minorities.In desperation, he declared that his grandfather was Duan Jiong. Fearing Duan Jiong's reputation, the young people of Liangzhou released Jia Xu, and all the people who accompanied Jia Xu were killed.
As early as the pre-Qin period, the state of Chu built the Great Wall in the Qifeng mountain area, known as the Great Wall of Chu in history.These ancient city walls, because they are located in the inland area, failed to become part of the Great Wall of the North and were abandoned year by year.After nearly 400 years of loneliness in the Han Dynasty, there is no trace of the beacon tower and the city guard house.
