Chapter 34 Cracks
Cao Cao dreamed back at midnight and suddenly sat up suddenly, gasping for breath, shouting loudly:
"Come!Come!"
The guard at the door responded tremblingly, Cao Cao was trembling all over and quickly breathed a sigh of relief:
"No, don't come in."
He suddenly wrapped the Jin quilt around his body. The Jin quilt was soft and warm, making his whole body warm, but it could never dispel the cold trembling in his heart.
He just dreamed of Cao Chun again.
This young and rebellious cousin stood in front of his bed with a sad face, crying and asking why Cao Cao didn't avenge him.
He was invincible with his Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. He had all the strong winds and waves, but he died inexplicably in the attack with absolute advantage. None of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry who followed him back to report the news alive, but Zhang Yun had to come back to the full end.
Zhang Yun's subordinates said that Zhang Yun had already surrounded Liu Bei's army at that time and was fighting with Guan Ping himself, but he didn't know what happened. Zhang Yun was safe and sound, but Cao Chun, who was still a hundred steps away, suddenly fell off his horse.
Cao Ren cried and demanded that Zhang Yun be punished. At least he should be arrested and tortured, and asked about the truth that night. However, Cao Cao thought for a long time, but he endured the grief and refused this suggestion.
Capturing Zhang Yun will definitely cause turmoil among the Jingzhou army.
Patience, patience.
When you win, you will definitely avenge Zihe!
He breathed a sigh of relief, and felt a faint pain in his temples, so he simply put on a fox fur and limped out of the house, preparing to blow the cold wind outside.
Cao Cao pushed open the door and saw that the guards at the door retreated slightly in horror, and couldn't help but say surprisingly:
"What's wrong?"
A guard urged to whisper:
"There seemed to be troops mobilizing in the city just now."
When the troops were mobilized? Cao Cao felt a sank when he heard this.
In the middle of the night, there were troops and horses in the city, but no one came to report to me. This was not a question of rebellion or not, but it was clearly not a matter of not taking myself seriously.
"Who is so bold?" he asked in a hoarse voice.
Several guards did not dare to answer, Cao Cao snorted and immediately called someone to call Dong Zhao to ask.
Dong Zhao had woken up long ago and was waiting for Cao Cao to summon him. He told Cao Cao calmly that it was his cousin Cao Hong who mobilized the troops.
Oh, that's all right. If it were Zilian, I would definitely be afraid that it would make me rest.
Cao Cao trusted his family throughout his life. When he heard that it was Cao Hong who mobilized his troops, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and lazily prepared to turn around and go back to sleep.
But at this moment, a cold wind blew, and Cao Cao shivered for no reason and couldn't help but stand still.
"No." He said in a hoarse voice, "Why is Gong Ren here?"
It is normal for Cao Hong to mobilize troops, but Dong Zhao actually woke up in advance and waited for him. There must be something wrong with it. He turned around and stared at Dong Zhao with a fierce look, making Dong Zhao tremble all over.
"Yes, that's it," seeing that it was impossible to hide it, Dong Zhao could only say truthfully, "Some bandits attacked by the river. General Jiao and General Wen have led their troops to chase him. The humble man is afraid that the Prime Minister will ask, so he waits here."
"No!" Cao Cao's sleepiness was gone at this moment. He glared at Dong Zhao fiercely, then asked the servants to put on his coat and lead the war horses, and quickly ran towards the military camp by the river.
If it were a small bandit, how dare I come to Jiangling to cause trouble? Why should I let Wen Pin, who shoulders the heavy responsibility, send troops to chase him? There must be something strange.
Dong Zhao followed Cao Cao and told Cao Cao that these thieves came from the downstream, and then quickly left after approaching the river bank. At the same time, the rebellion of the Wei Yan, a soldier in Jingzhou, happened, and the chaos occurred.
Cao Cao became more and more anxious as he heard it. He knew that something must have happened.
He rode his horse to the riverside, and from afar he saw people crowded with torches everywhere.
He rode his horse over without hesitation, and the crowd gave way. Cao Cao, Xiahou and all the counselors under Cao army arrived. They formed a circle, and inside the circle was Cao Hong with a big waist and a round waist.
The Cao family general was dragging a person like a dog, trampling hard, and bent down to beat him with his fists. The man was beaten and screamed in pain, and could only protect the door with both hands. The sound of the punching sound of the flesh made everyone frown and dared not look again.
"I beat you to death, and I kill you, you are the one who kills you. You dare to deny it. It's just that you kill you to kill us! I will beat you to death, and I will beat you to death!"
Cao Hong looked like a madman, Cao Ren and Xiahou Dun were not there, and no one could stop the Cao warrior. Cao Cao shouted and stopped and ran up again. Then Cao Cao surrounded him and persuaded Cao Hong to stop.
Under the swaying light of the torch, Cao Cao was shocked when he saw that the Jingzhou Army general Wen Pin was beaten by Cao Hong.
"Zhongye!" He exclaimed and quickly asked someone to treat Wen Pin. Seeing that Wen Pin's face was covered in blood and had less breathing, Cao Cao kicked Cao Hong hard again.
"What do you want to do! Why is this? Why is this!"
Cao Hong gritted his teeth and said angrily:
"Brother! These Jingzhou people have bad intentions! Seeing that our army is powerful, they pretended to surrender, but wanted to kill all of us while our army was stationed!
Zihe was killed by them before, and this time they used the same trick again! If I hadn't reacted quickly, I'm afraid all of us would die here, brother!"
"Nonsense!" Cao Cao was shocked and angry, and kicked Cao Hong again, "Nonsense! Who told you the nonsense? Who is this? Who is this!"
The hero who had conquered most of the north was gasping for breath, cursing and looking around subconsciously. Cai Mao, Kuai Yue, Han Song and others all subconsciously lowered their heads, and the anger in their hearts was even more unspeakable.
"What's going on? What's going on!" Cao Cao asked angrily.
Everyone looked at each other, and finally Xun You stepped forward helplessly: "Prime Minister, it's Guan Ping who is coming tonight!"
Guan Ping!
Hearing this name, Cao Cao's mind buzzed again, and he almost couldn't stand steadily.
Xun You told the story, saying that Guan Ping first attacked a small fleet with a small fleet to lure Jiao Chu and Wen Pin to catch up. Then they suddenly turned around and dealt a heavy blow to Cao's army. Wen Pin escaped by luck, and Jiao Chu was killed by Guan Ping, and Wei Yan, a native of Yiyang, led the army to defect in front of the formation, causing Cao's army to suffer huge losses.
Cao Cao only felt another severe pain in his mind, but Xun You was always cautious. This must have been concluded after he carefully inquired and investigated.
Guan Ping actually came to attack? He still won a big victory?
"How many people did he bring?" Cao Cao blurted out.
Xun You looked solemn and said in a trembling voice:
"The soldiers who fled back said that there were only more than twenty civilian ships, at most... one or two thousand people."
"Impossible!" Cao Hong waved his arms desperately and said sternly, "How is it possible! How is it possible! You haven't counted the Wenpin and these Jingzhou dogs! They have 7,000 people, more than a hundred warships, and there are plenty of swords. I'm afraid I'll wait for all of us..."
"Shut up!"
Cao Cao slapped Cao Hong in the face and staggered.
Cai Mao and Han Song exchanged meaningful eyes, and Kuai Yue's eyes also flashed, and his smile was particularly bitter.
Cao Hong's face was full of resentment, and he stared at the Jingzhou tribes fiercely, and suddenly laughed out loud.
"Guan Ping has entered the riots this time, and he has fought many times, and he has killed people and turned over. Can you tell me how many casualties are there?"
"How many people?" Cao Cao asked casually.
"Including Lianjiao Thu, five people were killed in battle, more than ten injured, and another five hundred people rebeled, one building ship, five ships, three fighting ships, twelve ships, food, weapons, and armor.
Before leaving, the Guan family's son was very polite and said he would thank the Prime Minister for giving the boat!"
Cao Cao only felt a hacksaw pulling back and forth on his head. He wanted to say something to calm the strange atmosphere, but after his temples twitched a few times, he felt that his eyes were pitch black and he couldn't control his bang and fell to the ground.
Before he lost consciousness, a violent thought flashed through his mind.
Why is it Guan Ping again?
