Three Kingdoms Star System

Chapter 540
Jiaozhou, Jiuzhen County, in the Shu military camp.

Guan Yu was reading the Spring and Autumn Annals in the camp when he suddenly saw Liao Li walking in out of breath. He immediately put down the book in surprise, and then asked strangely, "Gong Yuan is on this trip to investigate the enemy's situation. Why are you so flustered? You are usually calm and calm."

Liao Li smiled wryly and said: "Please forgive me, my lord. This time when I was investigating the enemy situation, I happened to meet Tai Shici. If I hadn't saved my life in a hurry, I'm afraid I would never see you again."

Then the cook told Guang Guan the scene of how he used a trick to escape.

Although Guan Yu felt that Liao Li's deception was a bit unfair, he still saved his life by relying on his wisdom. Guan Yu didn't say anything and managed to comfort him with a few words.

At this time, Liao Li continued to sigh: "Although Li escaped this time, it also exposed our army's combat intentions. Tai Shici and Lu Xun will definitely strengthen their guards. If this is the case, it will be difficult for our army to break through tomorrow." Jiuzhen County, why don't we take a rest for the time being and wait three days before suddenly launching an attack, the enemy will definitely be in chaos if they are caught off guard."

Guan Yu was also silent when he heard the words, and after a while he said in embarrassment: "If it's a one-day delay, it's better to explain to Duke Qin, but three days is a bit hard to say. But I can't give up such an opportunity. In this case, Launch a surprise attack three days later. This time we must smash the enemy army, break through the city, capture Tai Shici and Lu Xun alive, and force them to surrender. As for Qin Gong, I will explain to him. You just do it boldly. If there is a problem, I will take responsibility. .”

"...No." Liao Li agreed, and then went down to do various preparations, but he sneered secretly in his heart.

Three days later, Guan Yu led his army to the city, and immediately launched a fierce attack, but found that there were not a single soldier in the city, and there were not even a few people. , I found some old people and asked the reason, only to see the old man said: "Just yesterday, the soldiers in the city forced all the people in the city who were able to move to go out to sea with them. As for where they went, I don't know." .”

"Huh? I didn't expect these people to be so hateful, they fled without a fight, but where did they get the ships?" Guan Yu immediately thought of a question, and asked.

I saw one of the old men say: "Those officers and soldiers have mobilized all our fishing boats. Those people are vicious and will kill anyone who dares not to obey. We have no choice but to hand over all the boats."

"Hateful!" Guan Yu was so angry that he gritted his silver teeth when he heard this, but there was nothing he could do, because the opponent had already left and there were no ships nearby, so it was impossible to catch up with him, so he had to order to occupy Jiuzhen County, and immigrated from the mainland to enrich the frontier, and then wrote a letter to Liu He, saying that Tai Shici and Lu Xun had fled to the sea before he received the letter and disappeared.

At this time in Xuzhou, after Cao Cao's defeat, he felt very depressed. It was just that he couldn't defeat Liu He, but he couldn't even defeat Sun Quan. He lost more than [-] people in this battle, and most importantly, his prestige was greatly damaged. , his appeal in the court declined again, and many officials were ready to take the opportunity to kill him, and asked Qin Gong Liu He to come to preside over the situation and move the court back to Chang'an.

Now Chang'an has become the richest man in the world. Every inch of land is precious. If the imperial court can move back to Chang'an, they will at least get a big house.

But at this moment, Cao Ren, the commander of the personal army, came to the front and said with a loud smile: "My lord, it's not good. According to the news from the front, Liu He led an army of 20 troops into Jiangdong, and Sun Quan was under internal and external difficulties. Don’t resist, raise your troops and surrender, now all Jiangdong’s territory has fallen into the hands of Liu He, and Liu He’s strength is even stronger..."

Unexpectedly, Cao Cao burst out laughing after hearing the news, which made Cao Ren suddenly bewildered, not knowing what his lord was laughing at.

So Cao Ren asked, "I don't know why my lord is laughing?"

I saw Cao Cao said: "Sun Quan's son believed that Jiangdong had a vast territory and strong soldiers and horses. How high-spirited was he at that time? Later, Zhou Yu's son swept Yizhou, almost divided the world, and made the princes of the world pay attention. But what happened? In just one year, first Zhou Yu was defeated, the 10,000+ army was wiped out, and then Sun Quan’s child surrendered, and Jiangdong’s land was completely lost. He never imagined that his Jiangdong foundation, which seemed to last for thousands of years, would collapse like this? Haha No matter how strong Sun Quan is, so what? Didn’t he become someone else’s prisoner before me?”

"It turned out to be because of this..." Cao Ren felt speechless after hearing Cao Cao's words, and said to himself, "Aren't you laughing at fifty steps? Although Sun Quan is dead, how long can we last? The so-called dead lips and cold teeth , Now that Sun Quan is gone, when we are invaded in the future, we will not even have an alliance, we can only fight alone, and we will inevitably perish in the end."

Cao Cao seemed to have seen Cao Ren's thoughts, he laughed and said, "Now, are you still thinking about resisting Liu He's invasion? It's simply childish, let alone now, even in our heyday, we are far from rivals , let alone now? I just want to be able to see the demise of Jiangdong with my own eyes, and I am satisfied. Haha, Liu Bei is dead, and Sun Quan is also defeated. To live side by side with Liu He is enough to be proud of."

"Then, what should we do in the future? Could it be that we have been trapped like this?" Cao Ren's face was very unwilling, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Yuan, Brother Hong, Brother Chun, Xiu'er, don't we want to avenge them? gone?"

"Hey, revenge? You are too naive." Cao Cao laughed and said loudly: "It is good enough to survive. Now my greatest interest is to watch the princes of the world perish one by one. Only Liu Chan is left among the princes, although he has Zhuge in literature, and Zhang in Wu, but there is no harmony between literature and military, and I believe that Guan will perish soon, how interesting should we watch this kind of drama?"

When Cao Cao said this, he burst into laughter. At the end, he laughed so much that he burst into tears. In the end, he suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, and then fell unconscious on the ground...

"My lord, my lord..." Cao Ren originally saw Cao Cao's lack of heart and lungs, and he still had some complaints in his heart, but when he saw Cao Cao passed out on the ground, he realized that Cao Cao's so-called happiness was actually a kind of untimely birth. Feeling so depressed, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my heart, and supported Cao Cao, tears streaming down my face.
