The video takes us to ancient times; Li Er transforms into the Tongtian Emperor of Shu Han.

"So, are we just going to stay in this stalemate and do nothing?"

"But if this continues, it won't be long before all the people in the city are killed or injured!"

"He Jin, Zhang Rang, and the others have gone mad!"

"Even if we don't attack the city, the people will never have an easy time in their hands!"

Huangfu Song was filled with nothing but pure rage.

His current situation is the same as that of most people in the Yellow Turban Army.

After such a long ceasefire, their fighting spirit and their anger have reached their limit.

"The stalemate won't last long."

"I'll have something to do soon."

“In these days, Liu Hong has not been idle; he has sent envoys to Wuhuan and Nanzhong.”

"If nothing unexpected happens, it won't be long before we face a joint attack from the Wuhuan and the Nanman."

The Wuhuan and the Southern Barbarians, along with the imperial court, have surprisingly joined forces one day.

Xiang Yu couldn't help but laugh.

A mob, no matter how many there are, is still a mob!

"The Wuhuan and the Southern Central Plains?"

"Both of these tribes are enemies of our Han Dynasty. In recent years, the court has put in a lot of effort to suppress them. Why would they be willing to help the court instead?"

At this point, Huangfu Song understood.

The only reason that could persuade these two tribes to join forces with the imperial court was to cede territory!

The imperial court is offering to cede territory to the Wuhuan and Nanzhong in exchange for their assistance!

Is the land left by our ancestors just going to be ceded away like this?

Has His Majesty truly gone mad?!

"That's exactly what you think, but no matter what they do, it's all in vain."

“Recently, many people have come to join me after hearing the news. Now I understand why that scoundrel Liu Bang has more and more soldiers behind him the more he loses!”

Xiang Yu gave a soft snort.

It turns out that the public sentiment he had been ignoring all along could play such an important role!

The people who came to surrender immediately took up swords and became soldiers.

The army, which started with 80,000 men when they entered the pass, has now expanded to 150,000.

And as time goes on, more and more people will join the Yellow Turbans!

"Huh? I don't think there are that many people inside the pass."

Huangfu Song hadn't paid attention to these things these past few days; he had been busy training his soldiers.

"There's not enough room inside the pass, so I've sent some men to set up camp outside the pass. That way, if the enemy attacks, they can give us a heads-up."

What do you know?!

Xiang Yu glared at him, annoyed.

He originally intended to recruit Huangfu Song, have him handle logistics, and then he would focus on the frontal battles.

Who knew he was such a reckless fool, knowing almost nothing except military matters!

"Do you have any recommendations for someone who can manage logistics? I'll send someone to find one."

"If this continues, there will be problems."

Xiang Yu admitted that he was not good at handling logistical matters.

If we can't find this type of talent, things will get very difficult in the future.

"Logistics management personnel?"

"...I am not very popular in the court."

Huangfu Song scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed.

Have you ever heard of the name Cao Cao?

Xiang Yu thought for a moment. Before this challenge began, this name had been quite active on the screen during the review.

To become king in chaotic times, one's abilities must be considerable.

“Cao Mengde? I’ve heard of him before. He’s quite famous and capable, but he’s a descendant of the eunuch Cao Teng, and it’s the eunuchs who are causing trouble in the court right now. Do we really want to use him?”

In other words, can we really trust him?

No one knew which side Cao Cao was on in this chaotic world.

"It doesn't matter if he's from a eunuch family. He's talented, and as long as he can be used by me, there's nothing to worry about."

"He once served under me, but after I and Zhu Jun separated our forces, he remained in his army. By now, we should be almost at Sishui Pass."

Huangfu Song thought for a moment and said.

Given Zhu Jun's character, he would never back down just because he heard Xiang Ji's name.

He will definitely come to the king's aid!

"Alright, send out scouts to investigate day and night. When Zhu Jun's army arrives, that will be the time to start the war!"

"You'll come with me then. You'll be responsible for finding Cao Cao, and I'll be responsible for capturing him alive!"

"We will never let the Overlord down!"

Cao Cao, who was on his way, suddenly felt a chill down his spine for some reason.

I have a feeling that someone is maliciously targeting him.

Is it an illusion?

Ten days later, on the night he arrived at Sishui Pass with Zhu Jun's army, he knew.

It's not an illusion!

This night.

He had just led his thousand-plus men to set up camp and was cooking when he saw torches rising all around him.

"Cavalry Commandant, the rebels are attacking! Please quickly assemble your troops to meet them in battle!"

Cao Cao, disregarding his freshly cooked meal, kicked out the fire, mounted his horse, and drew his sword.

"Soldiers, since the rebels dare to launch a night attack, let them never return! Follow me and kill them!"

"Today is the day to achieve great things!"

Cao Cao was quite brave and martial in his prime.

Clearly, he had no idea what he was about to face.

He quickly realized that something was wrong.

Why is it that even though we are saying we are going to engage the enemy, our own army keeps retreating as the battle progresses?

In a short time, just because he led the charge, he and the thousands of soldiers behind him had already distanced themselves from the main force.

Upon realizing this, Cao Cao became anxious.

He quickly turned his horse around, intending to retreat with the main force.

Suddenly, shouts were heard from within the enemy ranks.

"The one in the red robe is Cao Cao!"

Cao Cao: "?"

He turned around and was so scared he almost lost his life.

The legendary Xiang Yu, whom countless people have mythologized, is riding straight towards him.

Looking around at the soldiers, it seemed that he was the only one wearing a red robe.

Seeing Xiang Yu getting closer and closer, he quickly took off his red robe and blended into the soldiers.

"The one with the long beard is Cao Cao!"

Cao Cao: "?"

What the hell did I do?

That's why even Xiang Yu, the Hegemon-King, would chase after you like this!

He quickly swung his sword and cut off his long beard.

"The one with the short beard is Cao Cao!"

This time, he finally saw clearly who had spoken.

Huangfu Song!

"Lord Huangfu, I, Cao Cao, do not believe I have offended you. Why must you be so ruthless as to kill an insignificant nobody like me!"

Cao Cao looked up at the sky and sighed.

At this point, it was too late for him to cover it up.

Xiang Yu had already charged close.

The halberd drew a crescent moon from top to bottom, and Cao Cao closed his eyes in despair.

He feared that the next moment he would see his headless corpse sitting upright on his horse.

But to everyone's surprise, Xiang Yu's halberd, halfway down, suddenly changed from a swing to a sweep, directly knocking two soldiers who came forward to protect Cao Cao off their horses.

Immediately afterwards, Cao Cao felt a lightness all over his body, and when he opened his eyes again, he was already being pressed down on his horse by Xiang Yu.

"..."

I, Cao Mengde, have not yet had a chance to realize my ambitions, and I have already been captured alive.

Cao Cao stared blankly at the retreating rebel army.

Dude, so you guys made such a big fuss just to arrest me?

What the hell have I done to deserve this?!
