Thinking of this, Boss Cao took a big gulp of wine, intending to use it to suppress his overexcited nerves.

【Among the group of rescued Han people, Cai Yan was hidden! ! 】

When he saw this sentence, "Pfft!!!" Cao Cao spit out the wine in his mouth in one gulp!

"Cough cough cough!" After coughing violently, Cao Cao put down the jug in his hand and said, "Damn! It seems that the problem of eating and drinking when reading the diary will have to be corrected, otherwise one day, sooner or later, because of the contents of the diary Too scary to be choked to death or choked to death..."

"Zhao Ji..." Cao Cao looked at Cai Yan's name, and the dusty memories in his heart swept all his thoughts like a tide.

Although the age gap is a bit big, Cai Yan really moved Cao Cao's heart back then.

[Originally, Cai Yan should have been taken captive by the Huns to the north for 12 years, but unexpectedly, he was rescued by Zhao Yun and Xia Houlan by mistake...]

"What!!!" Cao Cao stood up suddenly, anger and murderous intent flashed alternately on his face, "Damn the Huns, dare to kidnap my teacher's beloved daughter?! I, Cao Cao, will definitely destroy you!"

After a long time, Cao Cao managed to calm down, and began to look down.

【She seems to have an affair with Boss Cao...】

"Bah! You're still an immortal, and you made such an unbearable guess. Why are you so weak? I, Cao Mengde, am I the kind of... um... what kind of person?" A little guilty.

[I'm really looking forward to Boss Cao's expression when he sees Cai Zhaoji!It must be very very very interesting, hahaha! 】

The corner of Cao Cao's mouth twitched, and he decided not to be as knowledgeable as Lu Yan.

[But where does the money for the expansion workshop come from? 】

[It's not too much to exchange Cai Yan and Boss Cao for some investment, right?Hehehe...]

"I treat you as a fairy, but you actually acted as a human trafficker behind your back???" Cao Cao shook his head, took out a high-grade white paper, and began to write a letter.

"Chenliu's workshop has repeatedly produced artifacts. The achievements in the present age will benefit the future! Cao believes that His Majesty should pay attention to craftsmen..."

After nearly a hundred words were eloquently written, Cao Cao waited for the ink to dry before shouting at the top of his voice, "Come here!"

"What are your orders, my lord?"

"Someone sent this letter to Xun Yu. Tell him to deliver the letter to His Majesty for me, and tell him to persuade His Majesty to value the workshop in Chenliu County. It is best to give it to the supervisor of the workshop. Those who belong to the same class will be given official titles."

"Here!"

After the servant left, Cao Cao smiled and said to himself: "It's so vulgar to talk about money. Wouldn't being an official better reflect the importance of me, Cao? Hahaha!"

"I heard that she was married to Wei Zhongdao? It's a pity that Wei Zhongdao's life is so poor that Zhao Ji was almost taken away by the barbarians..."

Tonight, Cao Cao is doomed to toss and turn and find it difficult to sleep.

What will the woman who made me feel ashamed back then look like now?

"Oh... I owe more and more to Mr. Lu... How about I go talk to Lu Bu in person and get Lu Lingqi back?"

Chapter 112 Defeating Ji Ling, Breaking Xiaopei

After repairing for a day, Lu Yan moved out more than 20 trebuchets. Before dawn, he began to throw stones into Ji Ling's camp.

Who can stand such a thing!

Many soldiers were awakened from sleep.

The big rocks that fell from the sky collapsed the camp tent, and killed a few unlucky ghosts...then the whole camp started to commotion again.

Ji Ling's soldiers, who were already resentful because they didn't have enough to eat, almost bombed the camp now!

Food had been out for almost five days, and now Ji Ling only had a bowl of clear porridge, not to mention the soldiers.

Coupled with the harassment of Cao Jun's trebuchets, although their lethality is actually not great, the pressure on people's hearts is extremely huge.

Seeing that his soldiers had lost their morale and had no fighting spirit, Ji Ling had no choice but to order the army to retreat.

There has been no news of the soldiers sent to check the grain road. Ji Ling is sure that the grain road has been cut off by Cao Jun. He no longer has any expectations, and finally announces: "Withdraw, withdraw to Xiaopei!"

The soldiers who finally got the order to retreat finally calmed down some of the resentment in their hearts.

But I haven't eaten enough in the past few days, and my feet feel so weak when I run.

The scouts sent by Lu Yan to monitor Ji Lingjun's movement had already seen their retreat clearly.

How could Lu Yan and the others let go of such a good opportunity?

As a result, four thousand Cao's troops mobilized and stabbed at the back of Ji Ling's army, which was so flimsy even in escaping!

After charging for a while overnight, Ji Lingjun had no fighting spirit and a lack of morale, and finally could not escape the fate of being defeated.

However, Ji Ling and the others escaped for less than [-] miles, and unexpectedly encountered Zhao Yun's cavalry... What a crime!

Zhao Yun and Xia Houlan, a group of four-legged cavalry, chased and killed the two-legged soft-footed shrimps inhumanely.

One day later, Ji Ling's remaining [-] soldiers finally fled in all directions like birds and beasts, and barely escaped the fate of being wiped out by Zhao Yun's cavalry.

Looking at the soldiers of the Yuan army running around all over the mountains and plains, Xia Houlan gave a "TUI" and said to herself: "A group of soft-legged shrimps is really boring... It's more interesting to fight the Huns. I almost want to play with these people dozed off..."

Zhao Yun shook his head and said: "Ji Ling's subordinates are actually not that bad. It's just that they were cut off from the food supply by Mr. This group of people must have been hungry for several days. How can they fight? Ziheng, don't underestimate the enemy! "

Xia Houlan seemed to have remembered something terrible, and nodded with a serious face and replied: "Of course, I dare not forget the teacher's teaching."

"Is it because you dare not forget the pain of copying books? Hahahaha" Zhao Yun rarely teased Xia Houlan, which immediately elicited a burst of good-natured laughter from the people around him.

"Don't laugh!" Xia Houlan roared angrily.

But everyone is a life-and-death brother, how could he miss this opportunity to moles his general?

"Hahaha! General Xiahou, what is the posture of your pen?"

"I'm curious, you are so fast at juggling guns, why is it so slow to copy books?"

Xia Houlan's face turned red and then pale, and finally couldn't help but burst out: "Whoever talks too much, next time I want to copy the book again, I will definitely tell my husband, 'Bring him'!"

This move was too ruthless, and the noisy atmosphere just now became audible in an instant!

Thinking about the fear of being dominated by the teacher, many people couldn't help but grin their teeth...

When Ji Ling returned to Xiaopei, he was unlucky, and happened to meet Zhao Yun's cavalry and was defeated again.

In the end, there were less than [-] of the [-] soldiers, and Ji Ling had no time to mourn, so he led the remnant soldiers and continued to flee in panic in the direction of Xiaopei.

On the way to escape in a hurry, Ji Ling was also thinking about the gains and losses of this battle.

Why was this defeat so miserable?

After much deliberation, he still felt that this battle was not his fault, but purely because he was ruthlessly crushed by Cao Jun's new weapons.

Although there have been trebuchets for a long time, but the throwing range of the trebuchets at that time was short, and the stones thrown could only reach the size of watermelons, and they were not durable, which was very tasteless.

However, the trebuchet used by Cao Jun this time can throw a huge boulder weighing a hundred catties to a distance of two hundred steps, and the lethality has also doubled.

Wei Yan cut off Ji Ling's army's food supply, and the soldiers couldn't even fill their stomachs. Coupled with Yuan Jun's lack of faith, most of the [-]% of his combat effectiveness was lost in the end.

Zhao Yun delayed Xiao Pei's reinforcements. Although it was only delayed for two days, it was enough for Lu Yan to take advantage of the time difference to defeat Ji Ling.

"I didn't expect that in addition to a cavalry soldier who cut off our army's food road, there was also a cavalry soldier who cut off the connection between our army and Xiaopei... But the opponent is the invincible Lu Yan after all! Lost to him, I'm not too embarrassing, am I?" Ji Ling shook her head, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that her defeat was reasonable, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was a bit hasty for her lord to become emperor so hastily.

"No!" Ji Ling thought about it, and suddenly shuddered, "After Lu Yan defeats me, he will definitely march to capture Xiaopei to seek alliance with Cao Cao. If I go to Xiaopei City now, it won't be another wolf jaws of death?"

Thinking of this, Ji Ling couldn't help breaking out in a layer of cold sweat. After a long time, he muttered to himself: "I should go to Pengcheng to join the army. At least Pengcheng is high and deep, and it's relatively easy to defend... .”

After making a decision, Ji Ling secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then shouted loudly: "Brothers, follow me to the south, let's make a detour to join the army!"

After meeting Zhao Yun, Lu Yan went straight to Xiaopei.

A few days later, when Lu Yan led his army to Xiaopei City, the spies reported that there were only [-] defenders in Xiaopei City.

Apart from anything else, the trebuchet fired at Xiaopei for two rounds, and the generals who stayed in the city abandoned the city and fled.

In the past few days, reinforcements dispatched from Wancheng and Xuchang also arrived at the border of Xuzhou one after another.

After Lu Yan left, they filled in the gaps, and when they gradually gained a firm foothold in Xuzhou, they began to slowly encroach and annex Xuzhou.

......

Just as Ji Ling fled south,

Yuan Shu recently dispatched Zhang Xun, Li Feng, and Le Jiu to join Chen Ji's four armies, about [-] people, and launched an attack on Pengcheng.

However, what this group of arrogant warriors did not expect was that Chen Deng, the prefect of Pengcheng, relied on [-] regular troops and tens of thousands of civilians in the city to defend him abruptly!

When Lu Yan and others arrived at Thirty Li from Pengcheng, they were all amazed at Chen Deng's talent when they heard that Pengcheng was supporting Yuan Shu's [-] troops with [-] defenders.

But there was one exception, and that was Lu Yan, who already knew how powerful Chen Deng was.

"Changsheng, what should we do next?" Xiahou Dun asked Lu Yan.

Ever since the trebuchet and the Liannu appeared and Ji Ling was defeated, Xiahou Dun used to ask Lu Yan first no matter what he did, so that the military adviser was not Xun You but Lu Yan...

Lu Yan took a telescope to observe the situation of the enemy, and said: "The enemy army is powerful, with only [-] of us, it is basically nothing to go..."

"Then...we just watch like this?"

"Observe and observe the situation first."

"But what about big brother? He must be under a lot of pressure, right?!"

Xiahou Dun was a little impatient and unwilling, but Lu Yan trusted Lao Cao's ability to resist pressure, "Yuan Shu's four-way army besieged Pengcheng, although Yuan Shu might send additional reinforcements, but I believe Cao Gong can still withstand it. "

"Alas..." In desperation, Xiahou Dun could only sigh and retreat.

Chapter 113 Big Dog, Kill It!

Although Xiahou Dun was worried about Cao Cao's situation, Lu Yan's attitude finally made him temporarily compromise.

"What does this little pressure mean to Boss Cao?"

Lu Yan knew how difficult it was for Boss Cao to start a business in the middle and early stages of official history, and these difficulties are now a piece of cake for Cao Cao.

So people, if you don’t force yourself, you will never know how tough you are...

Outside Pengcheng, Lu Yan observed the situation of Pengcheng with binoculars behind a hidden hillside quite far away.

Xiahou Dun was very curious, why did Lu Yan always point the long barrel at the enemy?

Moreover, they are still far away from the enemy army, and people look like black spots, so how can they observe the enemy's situation?

After hesitating for a long time, Xiahou Dun finally came to Lu Yan's side driven by curiosity, and asked, "That... Changsheng, what is the use of this thing in your hand?"

Lu Yan put down the binoculars, glanced at Xiahou Dun, and replied calmly: "It's for observing the enemy's situation."

"How does this thing observe the enemy's situation???" Xiahou Dun's head was full of black question marks, and he really couldn't imagine how this iron rod could observe the enemy's situation?

Lu Yan was not petty either. He handed the binoculars to Xiahou Dun and said, "It's called a binoculars. You point the big head at the distance, and the small head at your own eyes."

Xiahou Dun took the binoculars suspiciously, and then did as Lu Yan asked.

"Aww!!!" As soon as he put it in front of his eyes, Xia Houdun immediately sat down on the ground in fright, and couldn't help but groaned, waving his hand and about to throw the telescope out.

Lu Yan didn't stop Xiahou Dun's actions, but just said teasingly: "A telescope is worth ten thousand gold, you can throw it out and have a try."

"Ah!?" Xiahou Dun suddenly withdrew the hand holding the telescope, and after realizing it, he hugged the telescope firmly in his arms.

"I... Changsheng... I just... saw those people..." Xiahou Dun stuttered a little because he didn't know how to describe what he just saw.

"Seeing those people seem to be much closer to you, isn't it?" Lu Yan explained for him.

"That's right! That's it!" Xiahou Dun nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice, which looked very funny.

Lu Yan replied: "With it, you can observe the enemy's situation at close range."

"And I can find the enemy first, and then arrange it calmly, waiting for the enemy to fall into the trap I planted!" Xiahou Dun took Lu Yan's words, and then played with the telescope, feeling a little bit fond of it.

"That's right!" Lu Yan nodded in agreement, then stretched out his palm and said, "Give it back to me."

Xiahou Dun turned a blind eye to Lu Yan's request to return the telescope, but asked Lu Yan instead, "Uh... Changsheng, how much of this do you have?"

Seeing Xiahoudun like this, he wanted to ask for it.

"The workshop did its best to make two..." Lu Yan said, barely maintaining a calm expression on his face.

Xiahoudun also knew the scale of Chenliu's workshop, and he asked a little dumbfounded: "No way? Is this thing really... so precious?"

"It's a treasure!" Lu Yan nodded seriously.

"You just said... there were two?"

"The other one is for Mr. Cao."

Lu Yan's words made Xia Houdun's bright eyes gradually dim, "Oh...such a treasure, what a pity..."
