Somewhere in Xue County, Lu State, Cao Lie, who had lost his right arm, heard news from Xuzhou that Cao Song had been killed. Cao Cao was furiously attacking Xuzhou and couldn't help but burst into tears.**
On the day when Cao Song ordered Cao Lie to deliver the letter, he was intercepted and after a bloody battle, he was the only one in the group of eleven who managed to escape. Fortunately, it was snowing heavily at the time, and the other party did not specifically pursue him, but instead let him
He managed to escape with his life, but he passed out soon due to the cold and excessive blood loss. Fortunately, a passing hunter picked him up not long after.
Cao Lie was also very lucky, so Orion fed Cao Lie some decoction every day with the intention of rescuing him. As a result, Cao Lie woke up after more than ten days. However, due to his injuries, it would take dozens of days before he could barely get on the horse, so
Cao Lie nursed back to health at Orion's place, preparing to send a message to Cao Cao after recovering from his injuries.
As for Cao Song's safety, he was not worried. After all, Zhang Kai had more than 500 people, so it would not be easy to capture him.
As a result, until now, he has been waiting for such news. Cao Lie was struck by lightning. Looking at the letter written by Cao Song to Cao Cao, that letter that may be the last one, Cao Lie burst into tears and silently took his long sword.
, carrying the baggage, holding the envelope and preparing to hand Cao Cao Cao Song's last words. As for whether he would die because of this, it no longer mattered.
"Alie, your injury hasn't healed yet, are you leaving now?" Orion asked, looking at Cao Lie who was packing his things.
"Thank you for taking care of me these days, old man." Cao Lie bowed to Orion, "I want to deliver the letter to my lord."
Cao Lie walked on the road silently. He had no idea how painful it would be for Cao Cao when his letter was delivered to Cao Cao, who had already massacred half of Xuzhou. He was caught off guard and given away like this.
.
Coupled with the rebellion of Chen Gong by his subordinates at the same time, most of Yanzhou was occupied by Lu Bu. Not only did he fail to gain the country, but he also lost the support of the people and his own territory, all because he did not take over early.
to this letter from his father.
The most important thing is that Cao Cao, who has slaughtered half of Xuzhou, can no longer look back. He has become a mortal enemy of Tao Qian. Everything he entrusts has become a joke. Even if he knows all the facts, he can only swallow a bitter pill.
Let go of an opportunity to take off and create a mortal enemy for yourself.
The recruitment letter that Xi Zhicai ordered to send to Cao Cao arrived at Chenliu a few days late, so the messenger obeyed Xi Zhicai's order and directly transferred to Xuzhou to pursue Cao Cao, preparing to send this letter with two top wise men - Zhuge brothers.
.and the information that Cao Cao's junior sister Cai Yan is very likely to join Yanzhou was sent to Cao Cao.
Of course, the messenger had no idea what the letter contained. He just thought it was an important letter, and then he chased it towards Xuzhou as if he was going to die.
Think about it, the woman he has admired for a long time finally said such encouraging words as "I like you too", and the top wise man who can help him conquer the world also showed his intention to surrender. Everything is so beautiful, but next
A moment of reality told him that everything was a dream because of his own fault.
What a blow it was to Cao Cao when the documents about Xi Zhicai's recruitment of talents, the letters written by Cai Yan angrily criticizing Cao Cao, and the letters written by Zhuge brothers who were enemies in their lifetimes all collided together!
In addition, Xuzhou, which could have been obtained, and Yanzhou, which could be consolidated, all the long-term struggle was wiped out in an instant. The beauties, the country, the talents and the jade all left Cao Cao. What kind of big heart can bear this!
When Mount Tai was raised high, Liu Bei took his sword and cut the entire main hall into pieces, and then summoned the civil and military ministers in the main hall where there was almost no room for anyone to stand, without paying any attention to his appearance.
"Send troops!" Liu Bei roared, "I want to kill Cao Mengde, I want to kill him! He is a butcher. I thought in vain that he was a good minister loyal to the Han Dynasty like me. He did a good job in human affairs!"
"Lord, please calm down. Don't be so angry about Xuzhou." Li You said calmly. Dong Zhuo had also done this kind of massacre, but he had never been as crazy as Cao Cao and wanted to annihilate an entire state.
Is this really revenge for his father?
"Calm down." Liu Bei looked at Li You with blood-red eyes, "We, the Han people, are Cao Mengde's pigs and dogs? Hundreds of thousands of people! Surabaya is blocked by it. Is Cao Cao crazy? If he seeks revenge, he goes to Tao Gongzu.
, I recognize him as a man whether he wins or loses, what does he mean, what does he mean!"
"How many troops will your lord send?" Lu Su lowered his head and said as calmly as possible. Cao Mengde's actions made him, a good old man, feel angry. He took action against the unarmed people, and occasionally tolerated it if a few said it was accidental damage. What are you doing?
"How many troops and horses are needed to destroy Cao Mengde?" Liu Bei looked at Chen Xi with blood-red eyes and asked, "Zichuan, tell me how many troops and horses are needed to destroy Cao Mengde. I want to destroy him, even if it delays the Qingzhou strategy!
I, Liu Xuande, once swore to protect these great Han people in the name of the Han Dynasty!"
"One hundred thousand." Chen Xi, who looked slightly pale, said, "And all the civil and military officials of our army need to be pledged before we can be sure."
Cao Cao was crazy. This was Chen Xi's first feeling when he first came into contact with this information. Hundreds of thousands of people were directly slaughtered. As Liu Bei said, this is not what humans do. If you slaughtered millions of Hu
Man, even if someone accuses you of being cruel, the people of the border counties will sing your praises, but you slaughtered the people of the Han Dynasty, so you can't justify it no matter what.
"Send one hundred thousand troops! Zhao Yun and Hua Xiong will each lead a legion as the vanguard. If they encounter Cao Cao's army, they will not ask for their banners and leave no survivors alive. Kill all those beasts and sacrifice them to Xuzhou!" Liu Bei said crazily. He had already planned to live with Cao Cao.
No end, Cao Cao's actions completely violated Liu Bei's principles!
"Mr. Xuande, our reserve of winter fur coats and linen clothes is simply not enough for an army of 100,000. Even if we start collecting now, it will take more than ten days to purchase such a large number of winter coats from major chambers of commerce!" Lu Su stepped out.
He stopped Zhao Yun and Hua Xiong in one step, and then spoke.
"Then how many troops can we send now?" Liu Bei took a deep breath and tried his best to calm down his angry mood. Although he wanted to kill Cao Cao, he would not treat his soldiers as human beings because of Cao Cao. In this cold
In winter, if you go into battle without winter clothes, you will die.
"Fifty thousand people, the remaining supplies as well as the medicines, spirits, and clean linen for the legion's operations need to be collected. It is expected to be ready in about ten days. Unfortunately, Mrs. Zhang returned to Jizhou for the New Year, and Zizhong's reserves of supplies It has already been taken into account." Lu Su said helplessly.
Zhang, who was originally supposed to be under house arrest, has already recognized Liu Bei, and the original policy towards her has been relaxed a lot, so she returned to Jizhou a year ago and will not come back for about a month.
