In front of the gate of Xiakou City, Qin Qi took Liu Ba, Dian Wei, and Huang Zhong to say goodbye to the civil and military officials who were seeing them off.

"Everyone, I have left. I will leave it to you at home. Everything will be carried out as planned. No more words."

Qin Qi said.

"Lord, don't worry! We will guard the Xiakou area and won't let anyone take advantage. We will act as planned."

Xun Yu said.

Qin Qi clasped her fists at the civil and military officials, then turned around and left with an army of 20,000 archers.

"Han Sheng, has your cultivation level been promoted?"

Qin Qi said.

"My lord, there was a fierce battle in the Liaodong campaign some time ago, which loosened the realm of humbleness and broke through the peak of Huagang in one fell swoop, entering the early stage of Qiongji."

Huang Zhongdao.

Qin Qi nodded.

Damn it!

Huang Zhong's cultivation has advanced further than that of another plane, and he doesn't know what it will be like against Lu Bu.

"Lao Dian, have you made any progress in your cultivation?"

Qin Qi said.

"My lord, I am still at the peak of Huagang. However, my strength seems to have improved a lot, but my state remains unchanged."

Dian Wei Dao.

Insightful eyes!

oh!

Half step to the Qiongji realm.

"Lao Dian, this is the half-step Qiongji realm. It's not that you haven't been promoted, you have been promoted. Half-step Qiongji and the peak Huagang realm,

There is an essential difference, and your combat effectiveness will definitely increase dramatically. If you continue to work hard, you will definitely be promoted to the Qiongji realm.

If you have time to communicate with Han Sheng and understand the situation of Qiongji Realm, it will be helpful for you to advance to Qiongji Realm."

Qin Qi said.

"As you command!"

Next, Qin Qi led Liu Ba, Dian Wei, Huang Zhong and others, and led a division of 20,000 archers to advance towards Suanzao.

Many princes have already arrived at Jujube with their soldiers and horses.

Extremely lively!

A month later, Qin Qi arrived at Suanzao with his troops.

Standing at the gate of the camp, Lao Cao saw the battle flags of the Xiakou Army and quickly ran out to greet them.

"Mengde, long time no see, I miss you very much!"

Qin Qi said affectionately.

"Xingbang, you are the founder, why are you here so late?"

Cao Cao said.

Qin Qi stepped forward and gave Lao Cao a bear hug.

"Meng De, you seem to be in good spirits, have a good time during this time!"

Qin Qi said.

"Xingbang, we are old acquaintances and old friends. Doesn't Xingbang not know how I am doing?"

Cao Cao said.

Hahaha!

Qin Qi laughed.

"Meng De, of course I have heard about your story. The courage of a single person to assassinate Dong is not something ordinary people possess.

To be honest, when I first heard the news, I was very frightened and worried that something might happen to Meng De. After hearing that he had escaped from Luoyang, I felt at ease."

Qin Qi followed suit with all her flattery.

Lao Cao's assassination of Dong was definitely something Cao Cao was very proud of.

Hahaha!

Lao Cao laughed loudly.

"Thank you Xingbang for your concern. Unfortunately, the assassination was not successful. If it had been successful, what happened today would not have happened."

Cao Cao said.

"Meng De, we haven't drank together for several years. Let's have a good drink tonight. To be honest, I admire Meng De the most."

Qin Qi said.

"Okay! I also want to taste Xingbang's wine, it is a peerless wine!"

Cao Cao said.

"Mengde, where is our military camp? Arrange the soldiers first, and then we can have a good talk."

Qin Qi said.

"Xingbang, leave a place next to our army specifically to arrange the camp of Xingbang's army."

Cao Cao said.

"Meng De, I don't have much to say about my thanks. I sincerely thank you for your arrangement."

Qin Qi said.

"We are old friends. Of course we must stay together in the camp. When the time comes, there will be care between us."

Cao Cao said.

Qin Qi noticed that Cao Cao kept glancing at the soldiers.

"Mengde, what's so good about a soldier? He's not a beauty. Mengde wouldn't have that kind of hobby!"

Qin Qi joked.

Hahaha!

Lao Cao laughed.

I have only heard that Lao Cao is a good man/wife, but I have never heard that Lao Cao likes to have back-to-back relationships!

"Xingbang, I was looking at the clothes worn by the soldiers of the Xiakou Army. They looked strange and gaudy. They didn't look like military uniforms at all."

Cao Cao was puzzled.

"Meng De, you don't understand this. This is very particular. These colorful things are called combat uniforms.

If the distance is further away, it will be difficult for people to see clearly, and it has a very good effect on concealing large/military operations."

Qin Qi explained.

oh!

Suddenly Lao Cao became interested and asked for details.

He is worthy of being a great military master!

"Xingbang, I will take you into the camp!"

Cao Cao said.

"There's Lao Mende!"

Entering the barracks, what jumps into your eyes are barracks one after another, with bright flags, and one prince is connected to another.

There were at least 700,000 to 800,000 soldiers and horses, which looked very spectacular and impressive.

But what?

The costumes of the coalition forces of the princes are a bit varied, especially the 50,000 soldiers and horses under Lao Cao, which are not military uniforms at all.

When they arrived at the camp, Huang Zhong was responsible for setting up camp.

"Mengde, how many princes are coming?"

Qin Qi said.

"Of the eighteen princes, only the Xiliang Ma Teng tribe was unable to join the coalition forces. The other seventeen routes have all arrived."

Cao Cao said.

oh!
