middle!
Taishi Ci gave a low drink.
He loosened his grip on the bow and arrow, the bowstring vibrated, and the arrow flew out like a meteor with a harsh sound in the air, and was behind Zhang Biao in an instant.
Phew!
The arrow broke open the armor behind Zhang Biao, pierced his back, and penetrated his body. In an instant, the bow and arrow pierced the heart, and the bloody arrow protruded from the chest, taking away the life in Zhang Biao's body.
Bright red blood kept pouring out.
The expression on Zhang Biao's rough face was full of pain and shock. He had already fled, so why was he still shot? Zhang Biao had no time to respond, and endless darkness hit him. His vision went dark, and his burly body fell from the horse to the ground.
After Taishi Ci killed Zhang Biao, he put away his big bow and charged again with his spear.
The black-armored soldiers charged, killing Yuan Shu's soldiers one after another.
Large numbers of people fled quickly.
Cao Ang was instantly safe.
He watched Taishi Ci win and shoot the enemy with bright eyes, and he was filled with admiration.
awesome!
Great marksmanship!
Archery is even more powerful!
Not long after, Tai Shici brought people back and solved the crisis.
Cao Ang's face was full of gratitude. He stepped forward, clasped his fists and said, "General Taishi, thank you for your help. If General Taishi hadn't arrived in time, I would have been killed by Yuan Shu's people."
Tai Shici looked indifferent, neither humble nor arrogant, and said: "I led the troops to rescue you, and I also followed the order of the lord to protect you secretly. Mr. Cao wants to express his gratitude, so go and thank the lord."
When Cao Ang heard this, he felt even more guilty.
He is not listening to advice.
If he had listened to Lu Xuan earlier, he would have been cautious from the beginning, led people to travel day and night, and then hidden his whereabouts, he would not have been discovered. Or, it could be to break them into pieces and disperse the hundreds of soldiers under his command, so that they would not be ambushed here in Luoyan Mountain and lose so many soldiers.
All of this was caused by him, because he didn't listen to Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan is truly the most benevolent and righteous person.
At the beginning, he had a very bad attitude towards Lu Xuan, spoke very irritably, and targeted Lu Xuan everywhere. However, Lu Xuan didn't care, but reminded him to be careful about Yuan Shu. Now that he has arranged for someone to rescue him, it is obvious that he did not take the reminder to heart.
Lu Xuan is truly a benevolent and righteous gentleman.
Cao Ang looked solemn, clasped his fists and said: "General Taishi, I will bear in mind Lu Xuan's great kindness. Please convey my gratitude on your behalf. Thank you again, General Taishi."
"You're welcome."
Taishi Ci shook his head.
He ordered the entire team to assemble and integrate. There were only fifteen casualties among the black-armored soldiers. Although there were some injuries, they were all minor injuries and no serious injuries were suffered.
Tai Shici said: "Master Cao, I defeated Yuan Shu's ambush. In a short period of time, Yuan Shu was unable to respond. You take advantage of this gap and quickly go north. You need to walk the rest of the way by yourself."
Cao Ang nodded and said, "I understand."
"Farewell!"
Taishi Ci clasped his fists again and ordered to leave.
Cao Ang looked at Taishi Ci's leaving figure and sighed in his heart. Lu Xuan was not only wise and understanding, but also benevolent and enthusiastic. He also had such a tiger general under his command. It was really enviable. Only a benevolent and righteous heart like Lu Xuan could make Taishi Ci. Allegiance.
Cao Ang also quickly organized his army.
He brought more than a hundred people with him. After an inventory, only eighteen people were left, and more than ninety people were killed or wounded.
Cao Ang collected all the corpses, burned them on fire, paid homage in person with tears in his eyes, and then ordered to go north.
This time on his way north, Cao Ang hid his whereabouts and traveled cautiously. After Cao Ang left the border of Jiujiang County and entered Yanzhou, Yuan Shu got the news that the ambush on Cao Ang failed. Yuan Shu was furious, but to no avail.
He had already escaped, and he could not kill Cao Ang to retaliate against Cao Cao. Moreover, he could not afford to offend Cao Cao and did not dare to go to war with Cao Cao.
Yuan Shu's only arrangement was to strengthen the alert to prevent Cao Cao from making a surprise attack.
On the other side, Cao Ang went all the way north and returned to Changyi County. Cao Ang returned to the Prefecture Mufu. After seeing Cao Cao, he bowed and said, "Father, my son is back."
Cao Cao looked at Cao Ang with a smile on his face and asked, "Is this trip going well?"
"It goes well, it doesn't go well either."
Cao Ang replied, and he knelt on the ground with a plop and said: "My son's wedding went smoothly, and my younger sister has married Lu Xuan. However, due to his son's carelessness, he was ambushed by Yuan Shu on the way back, and nearly ninety people were injured." . The son is incompetent, please punish the father."
Cao Cao waved his hand and said: "You only have a hundred people. If you were ambushed, it's good to be able to return safely. Get up."
"No, my son is careless."
Cao Ang's face was full of guilt and he explained: "When I was in Lujiang County, the wedding reception was completed, and when I was about to leave Shu County, Lu Xuan reminded his son to be careful of Yuan Shu's ambush on the way back."
"However, I think my father is strong in Yanzhou and Yuan Shu does not dare to take action."
"Unexpectedly, Yuan Shu sent people to pretend to be thieves and ambush him halfway, so that he was almost killed. This time, if Lu Xuan hadn't arranged for people to follow him secretly and rescue him in time, his son would have died."
"This loss was entirely caused by my son's carelessness. It was my son's self-righteousness that caused this casualty."
Thinking of the dead soldiers, Cao Ang felt very regretful.
Regret your own self-righteousness.
I regret my arrogance.
Cao Cao looked at his guilty son, not worried at all, but laughed in his heart.
His son is capable and good at martial arts. He can be said to be both civil and military. The key is that Cao Ang has a good character, filial and kind. The only shortcoming is that Cao Ang is relatively simple, which is the biggest flaw.
To put it simply, Cao Ang has not experienced any setbacks yet, but now he has encountered one, which is a good thing. To achieve great things, you must constantly sharpen your sword to sharpen your sword and develop your tough character.
Otherwise, it's just fragile porcelain.
Cao Cao looked serious and said in a deep voice: "It is impossible for a person to make mistakes in his life, and it is impossible for everything to be smooth sailing. When I attacked Dong Zhuo, I encountered various setbacks, lost troops and generals, and suffered countless losses. I almost lost myself."
"Do you think I'm decadent?"
"No!"
"As long as I'm still around, I'll have a chance."
"If you encounter the slightest setback or the slightest mistake, you will be unable to get up, blame yourself all day long, and don't know how to get up, then you are a coward, and you are destined to be a person who cannot achieve anything."
"It's normal to encounter setbacks or make mistakes. You must have a sense of self-blame and shame. Under this premise, you must also have perseverance and the awareness that you can correct your mistakes. "
"So when I failed, I picked myself up and kept trying, so I have everything I have now."
"The reason why I was ambushed by Yuan Shu this time was because of your carelessness, your carelessness, and your pride, which led to the death of these people. You have to bear the consequences. You will be responsible for the family members of the deceased. I’ll leave it to you to take care of.”
Cao Cao made arrangements directly.
Cao Ang said: "My son will definitely provide pensions and take good care of their family members."
Cao Cao continued: "As for you yourself, you must summarize your mistakes and cheer up. When you encounter something again, you can humbly listen to other people's suggestions and be vigilant. This is the most important thing."
Cao Ang said: "My son understands."
Cao Cao stood up, flicked his sleeves, and said forcefully: "You don't understand, or you don't understand enough. You are my son, Cao Cao. If you encounter problems and cry like a woman, then you are really helpless. You can't be saved. If you are like this, you are not worthy of being my Cao Cao's son. You should have found a piece of white silk earlier and then found a corner to hang yourself. My Cao Cao's son can lose and make mistakes, but he must never admit defeat. , we must not be afraid anymore.”
After Cao Ang heard this, his eyes flashed with high fighting spirit. He wiped the tears from his eyes and said loudly: "Father, don't worry, my son will not be afraid. I will take care of the families of these dead soldiers. I will not make such a mistake again."
Cao Cao's face showed joy.
What a good thing!
This time, thank you very much, Mr. Lu Xuan. He married a daughter, got a good son-in-law, and got a son to grow up, so he was not at a loss in any way.
This time I made a lot of money.
Cao Cao's eyes were sharp and he said: "Cao Ang, remember, if the sky falls, your father will hold it up for you. All you have to do is to stand up straight for me and straighten your spine. You won't be a coward even to death." . I, the Cao family, can’t be a coward.”
"My son remembers it."
Cao Ang nodded in reply and said in a deep voice: "Yuan Shu's revenge today, one day, my son will definitely kill Yuan Shu himself and take revenge."
A bright smile appeared on Cao Cao's dark face, and he praised: "This is my son, Cao Cao, get up."
Cao Ang stood up and had a clear idea.
After Cao Cao's words, he only had a strong fighting spirit and no more depression.
Cao Cao sat down again and asked, "This time you went to Lujiang County and met Lu Xuan. What do you think of Lu Xuan? What kind of person is he?"
There was a hint of admiration in Cao Ang's eyes, and he said without thinking: "Lu Xuan is a responsible, responsible, and ambitious person. Lu Xuan is quick in thinking and good at debating. I think Lu Xuan is a benevolent and righteous gentleman who is worthy of close friendship. He is sincere." Gentleman."
Cao Cao's face twitched.
Those deep and smart eyes also lost their focus for a moment.
Gentleman?
Is Lu Xuan a sincere gentleman?
Is Lu Xuan a benevolent and righteous gentleman?
He has never met Lu Xuan, but he has dealt with Lu Xuan through Xi Zhicai's incident. In Cao Cao's perception, Lu Xuan was a cunning, sinister, shameless, cunning, and even vindictive person.
Xi Zhicai was plotted by Lu Xuan. Even now, Xi Zhicai is a little scared of Lu Xuan.
Now, Cao Ang actually praised Lu Xuan.
Cao Ang expressed his admiration and said that Lu Xuan was responsible, responsible and ambitious. Cao Cao felt uncomfortable hearing this. He was thinking just now that he wanted to thank Lu Xuan because Cao Ang finally grew up after visiting Lujiang County.
Now it seems that Lu Xuan deceived Cao Ang into lameness.
Lu Xuan is too cunning.
Lu Xuan is so good at pretending.
Cao Cao took a deep breath, calmed his restless mind, suppressed his beating temples, and asked, "Tell me, how responsible and responsible Lu Xuan is."
Cao Ang had a very good impression of Lu Xuan, especially because Lu Xuan was kind to him in saving his life.
Cao Ang sorted out his words and said quickly: "Reply to father, because my little sister married Lu Xuan as a concubine, when I saw Lu Xuan, I had a very bad attitude and directly threatened Lu Xuan, saying that if he didn't treat my little sister well, , I won’t let him go.”
"Lu Xuan fought back on the spot. He was so sharp that it even made me ashamed."
"Finally, Lu Xuan said that if the little sister marries him, she is his woman. He will definitely treat the little sister well and keep her warm in the winter and warm in the spring. Lu Xuan said that being good to the little sister has nothing to do with other factors, just because My younger sister married him."
"I have a very bad attitude towards Lu Xuan, but it's not easy for him to be like this."
Cao Ang talked eloquently and said: "It can be seen that Lu Xuan is a responsible and ambitious person. He did not have any dissatisfaction because of my bad attitude, and even deliberately did not mention anything about Yuan Shu."
"On the contrary, he specially reminded me to be careful. But I didn't take it to heart. On this basis, Lu Xuan still sent someone to follow and protect him secretly. Isn't such a person a gentleman?"
Cao Cao couldn't help but his cheeks twitched.
What Lu Xuan did was by no means a gentleman. In fact, it was Lu Xuan's plan to show favor to Cao Ang.
This is the reason why Lu Xuan came to the rescue.
There was even more malicious speculation in Cao Cao's mind, whether Lu Xuan had released the news about Cao Ang and asked Yuan Shu to deal with Cao Ang and become a good person again.
Cao Cao looked at Cao Ang's determined expression, but he didn't say anything about the speculation in his heart.
He sighed in his heart that his son was still too naive. After taking a trip, he was deceived by Lu Xuan and became lame. It's just that Lu Xuan did save Cao Ang's life. It's hard for Cao Cao to refute this. Even if he said that this was Lu Xuan's plan, Cao Ang wouldn't believe it.
Because Lu Xuan really helped Cao Ang.
This is the result presented.
Cao Cao secretly scolded Lu Xuan for being cunning and cunning, but he still nodded and said, "What Lu Xuan is like as a person has nothing to do with us. You have a lot of things to do now, so go ahead and get busy."
"Here!"
Cao Ang bowed and left.
Cao Cao shook his head. He didn't care about Lu Xuan's affairs. Anyway, the people were delivered and the two parties were already married. He didn't need to worry about the situation in Yangzhou for the time being.
As for Yuan Shu?
A murderous intent flashed in Cao Cao's eyes.
Sooner or later Yuan Shu will be killed.
His son, Cao Cao, Yuan Shu actually ambushed him directly, and he would not let him go. But before that, we still have to solve the problem in Xuzhou first, and then deal with Yuan Shu.
