Chapter 588 Cao Cao was defeated and Tiger Chi died

That day, Cao Cao wanted to enter the city through secret passages, attacking Runan City from inside and outside, but by chance, Yuan Tan bumped into the people leaving the camp and followed them.

When he knew the reason, he thought of the plan, first killed the 5000 people, then entered the city through a secret passage, and found Wenpin and Wei Yan.

When they saw Yuan Tan in the city, everyone was taken aback.

When I heard Yuan Tan talk about the secret passage in the city, I was also shocked. If it weren't for Yuan Tan, Runan City would have been captured this time.

He immediately admired Yuan Tan.

When Cao's army retreated, Yuan Tan did not pursue it, because the return journey must not be smooth, because Yuan Tan had only Lei Tong by his side.

Cao Cao fled all the way, followed by Xu Chu.

Thinking about the two days ago, they brought 7 people to Runan in a mighty manner, but now they are fleeing everywhere in a panic.

Cao Cao also felt depressed in his heart.

When there were no pursuers in sight, Cao Cao ordered a rest, and Xu Chu stood aside to be on guard.

Cao Cao looked at Xu Chu, and felt a lot more at ease. If it wasn't for Xu Chu, he might have died in Runan.

Now that I think about it, I can't help being afraid, but I can breathe a sigh of relief after escaping this time.

But when he saw the surrounding environment, he laughed. Xu Chu was puzzled, thinking that Cao Cao had lost his mind because of the defeat.

"My lord, are you all right? It's just that Yuan Tan's scheming made me wait for a small defeat. When I return to Jingzhou, I'll make a comeback." Xu Chu persuaded.

Unexpectedly, Cao Cao laughed at this moment: "This Yuan Tan is nothing more than mediocrity. Zhongkang, look at this place. The jungle is lush and the terrain is undulating. If I set up an ambush here, I will definitely not escape. However, this place is so quiet. I want to come to Yuan Xiansi Xiaoer , but I don’t know the art of war.”

At this moment, the place was too quiet, and Xu Chu felt bad, so he wanted to drag Cao Cao onto his horse, but there was the sound of arrows in the forest.

"Prime Minister Cao, my lord has asked me to wait for you here for a long time." At this time, many people appeared in the forest.

And its head is Wei Yan.

After a round of arrow rain, they rushed up, Xu Chu also went up to block it, but shouted: "My lord, you go first."

Cao Cao also panicked, mounted his horse and quickly broke through with the crowd.

Xu Chu received Wei Yan's move, but nothing happened. Instead, he waved Wei Yan with a knife. Wei Yan struggled to catch it, but was knocked off his horse accidentally.

Xu Chu took advantage of the counter-shock force to step back a few steps, and instead of wanting to fight, he snatched the horse with one hand, turned on his back and rode towards Cao Cao.

Wei Yan got up and cursed, but there was nothing he could do. Xu Chu really inherited some of Dian Wei's martial arts, and his moves actually had the power of a dragon and an elephant.

I had no choice but to retreat.

After Xu Chu caught up with Cao Cao, Cao Cao felt a little relieved.

Everyone is still in shock, but there must still be an ambush this time, and everyone will stop resting and continue marching. As long as they return to Jingzhou as soon as possible, they will be safe.

Cao Cao was melancholy at first, but when he saw the surrounding environment, he laughed again: "This place is high and steep, if it is here..."

Before he finished speaking, Wenpin led his troops out from the side of the mountain.

Xu Chu was also full of black lines, so he had to flee with Cao Cao, not even caring about the soldiers.

After Wenpin came out, he didn't say much, but directly fought with these soldiers.

But Xu Chu escaped with Cao Cao all the way, and there were only dozens of soldiers who escaped with him.

Xu Chu was also depressed. Although he couldn't figure out why the Prime Minister would attract soldiers when he smiled, but every time Cao Cao wanted to laugh, he changed his course and made the journey safe and sound.

When he arrived at a small village, a good idea flashed in Cao Cao's mind. If everyone put on civilian clothes, Yuan Tan's pursuers would certainly stop pursuing them.

So he ordered to go into the village to rob and kill them, and grabbed a few pieces of clothing, and everyone changed into them. As for the people in the village, they all killed them to prevent their whereabouts from being leaked.

Cao Cao and others changed their clothes, buried the corpses in this village, and found a cart to hide weapons, and just started on the road again.

Unexpectedly, he had not gone far on the road when pursuers arrived.

It was Deng Ai who came, and Deng Ai also received Yuan Tan's order to stand firm and wait for Cao Cao to come.

Who knew that Deng Ai set up an ambush in one place, and after waiting for Cao Cao for a long time, he felt that Cao Cao should not have gone that way, so he chased towards Jingzhou, but at this moment he saw a group of civilians behaving strangely.

"Wait a minute." Deng Ai shouted.

Cao Cao lowered his head and asked a soldier beside him to come forward and talk to him.

"What's the matter with this general?" the soldier asked tremblingly.

"It's nothing, have you ever seen a group of defeated troops passing by here?" Deng Ai asked.

"No, no, those of us fleeing famine are most afraid of encountering such a defeated army." The soldier replied in fear.

However, Deng Ai carefully looked at the fleeing people. First of all, their clothes were too neat. Secondly, these refugees were also too strong. Generally, people fleeing from famine are not dressed in rags, their faces are yellow and thin, and these people...

Thinking of this, Deng Ai understood the reason for the strangeness here, and said with a smile: "Prime Minister Cao, what do you want to do when you dress like this? Teacher, please go to Runan City to explain."

Seeing that he was discovered, Xu Chu pre-emptively drew a long knife from the broken car and slashed at Deng Ai, but Deng Ai was on guard, dodged sideways, and shot back.

Xu Chu withdrew his sword and wanted to block the shot, but he was fighting all the way, because he was a dragon and elephant, and when he was exhausted, he would have blocked the shot in normal times, but now his body is exhausted Under the circumstances, let alone Deng Ai's such a fierce shot, Xu Chu could no longer resist it.

With a puff, this powerful and heavy shot directly pierced Xu Chu's chest.

Blood slowly dripped from Xu Chu's body, and the long knife in his hand fell to the ground.

When he was about to die, Xu Chu was still thinking about Cao Cao. With the last of his strength, he looked back at Cao Cao and said with a wry smile, "My lord... Zhongkang... go first...."

Another star has fallen.

Cao Cao also felt heartbroken for it. Once Xu Chu died, no one could protect him anymore, so he could only let Deng Ai tie him up and bring him back to Runan City.

While in Xuzhou City, Zhou Yu sneaked in quietly, saw Sun Ren on the road, and informed his elder brother of his death.

Although Sun Ren didn't like his brothers very much, he still had a brother-sister relationship in his heart. When he heard that his brother died, he was heartbroken. Followed Zhou Yu and quietly went back to Jianye by boat.

It wasn't until several days later that Queen Guo went to look for Sun Ren and found that Sun Ren was gone.

Sun Ren originally wanted to go back to pay homage to his elder brother, but he never expected that this time the party would never come back.
