Broken soldiers and horses were walking on the road. From the looks of it, there should be only a few thousand people, and the armor on their bodies was still broken. The Vertex novel was updated the fastest. Many people were still injured, which made the army move slowly.
After walking for a while, the army stopped, as if preparing to rest on the side of the road. Many soldiers were wounded and could not walk too fast or for too long.
Cao Cao got off his horse, and the army sat on the ground to rest on the spot. After walking for a day or two, he could return to the main formation of the princes near Luoyang.
He turned his head to look at the soldiers sitting on the ground. Most of them lowered their heads and looked at the ground without knowing what they were thinking. Chipped and dilapidated.
He took out a letter from his pocket, which was sent by Yuan Shao on the march.
The emperor was robbed, and Yuan Shao wanted to support Liu Yu, the governor of Youzhou, as emperor.
It is good that Liu Yu is a clan member of the Han Dynasty, and the governor of Youzhou also enjoys a high reputation.
However, if the emperor is changed, when will the courtiers have such power
He smiled wryly, turned his head, and looked at the road. After shaking the letter in his hand, he lowered his hand and muttered to himself: "Your lords are facing north, and I am heading west."
He pondered for a while, took a sip from the water bag on his waist, sat down with a smile, and read to himself.
"There are righteous men in the Kanto region, and they raise troops to fight against the gangsters.
In the early days, when I met with Tianjin, my heart was in Xianyang.
The army is not in the same strength, hesitates and walks wildly.
Snobbery makes people fight, and heirs kill each other.
The title of Huainan's younger brother is engraved in the north.
The armor is full of gnats, and all surnames die.
The bones of the dead are exposed in the wild, and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles.
Living people leave behind one hundred and one, and the thought of it breaks people's hearts. "
Although they did not catch up with Dong Zhuo, they saw people who died on the side of the road along the way, which was shocking.
Dong Zhuo left with the emperor, and he knew it when he left the army. An army raised its troops and came, but it was a useless move.
He knew this, but he still came to gamble, which is ridiculous.
"Why does Meng De have to do this?"
Cao Cao held the water bag, looked back, and saw Gu Nan walking over.
She walked to Cao Cao's side and smiled: "Why don't you think of something good? After this battle, no one in the world knows the king."
"Heh." Cao Cao also smiled, holding up the water bag and looking into the distance.
There was no smile in the smile, just a flat smile.
Yes, the world will know him Cao Cao.
"Why do you always wear white clothes, sir?"
Cao Cao put down the water bag and suddenly asked Gu Nan.
The clothes on Gu Nan's body were stained with blood and he did not change them, and he had never seen Gu Nan wearing other clothes.
Never even seen her in a girl's dress.
Gu Nan didn't answer him, and she couldn't answer, and she didn't know how to say it.
Cao Cao paused for a moment, seeing that Gu Nan didn't answer, he didn't ask any more questions.
Thinking of something, he took off his cloak and handed it to Gu Nan.
"It's cold, sir, you should wear more."
Gu Nan looked down at the cloak, but didn't take it, smiled and shook his head and walked away.
"No need."
Cao Cao was left alone to sit there.
After a while, he put the cloak back on himself. Looking at the person who left, the white robe is always cold, and the woman is only beautiful when she is wearing red makeup.
How is it so
There is a tributary of Bian River where the army is repairing.
riverside.
Gu Nan squatted down and put her hands into the river. She has been on the road for the past few days, and she still hasn't washed the blood off her hands.
The blood that had already dried up on her hand melted away, turning brown and flowing on her hand.
For no reason, Gu Nan's hands trembled.
She looked at her trembling right hand, and gently pressed her left hand on it, washing as if nothing had happened.
Who knows, maybe one night, she will suddenly wake up.
Yuan Shao was sitting in his army reading a letter with a gloomy expression on his face.
This Liu Yu, shameless, even made him emperor and sent a letter scolding him, is he a villain
"Report!"
The voice of the soldier's report came from the front of the tent.
Yuan Shao was silent for a while, put away the letter and put it aside before speaking.
"Enter."
Stepping into the tent, the soldier was holding a scroll of books.
"What is this?" Yuan Shao's tone was still a little cold, and Liu Yu's letter made him very angry.
The soldier lowered his head and said, "It's General Cao's military situation."
Hearing that it was Cao Cao's military situation, Yuan Shao was taken aback for a moment, then his face sank a bit, and he frowned.
"Bring it up."
The tone is not so cold, but a little more serious.
Cao Cao led an army and went after Dong Zhuo. His army was no more than 10,000 men. It would be good if the whole army was not wiped out, not to mention the odds of winning after Dong Zhuo.
He tried to persuade him, but he couldn't persuade him. Then Cao Mengde couldn't listen to people's words if he made a decision. What can he do
The soldier presented the letter, and Yuan Shao took it over, heaved a sigh of relief, and then spread the letter.
He didn't look at the front either, but looked directly at the final result.
"Heh." Yuan Shao grinned.
Cao Cao was defeated and injured, and was on his way back to the army.
"It's his fate."
It's not dead. Shaking his head, he put the book aside, feeling relieved that he was no longer angry about being scolded by Liu Yu.
Glancing at the soldiers under the tent, he waved his hand: "Go down."
"yes."
The soldiers saluted and were about to retreat.
"Wait a minute." Yuan Shao stopped him again.
"General?" The soldier bowed in confusion.
"Go and prepare some good wine, it doesn't need too much."
Yuan Shao's words stunned the soldiers, and he did a lot to prepare drinks. There is a banquet in the army almost every few days, but this time it doesn't need to be too much, it seems that it is not for banquets.
But he didn't think about it any more, he should have stepped back.
Yuan Shao leaned on the hall, picked up the document about Cao Cao's military situation, and flipped through it casually.
Suddenly, as if he saw something incredible, he frowned and sat up, looking at one place several times.
Cao Cao was ambushed by Dong Zhuo's tens of thousands of troops. He was defeated and retreated. After defending the Wanjun for half a day, they broke the formation and left.
The appearance of that person is recorded as a white-clothed bamboo hat, of course Yuan Shao knew who it was.
But one man guarding the army for half a day, is this a storytelling
Yuan Shao read the words in the book word by word, and they were correct, and it was impossible for him to memorize the military information randomly.
Probably some kind of trick.
Putting the text on the table, he recalled the appearance of the man in the army with his bamboo hat down, and he was also fascinated at that time.
Even so, regardless of bravery, this kind of spirit is enough to make people fall in love.
Before Wanjun, ordinary people had already fled in haste.
Putting the book on the table, Yuan Shao shook hands, and sighed for a moment.
"Cao Mengde"
In addition to Yuan Shao, many princes from all walks of life also ordered people to investigate Cao Cao's military situation.
At this time, there are also some news, or there are some differences in details, but they all know a thing or two about the situation.
