Lu Bu's Ambition

Chapter 1079: The Southern Barbarians Retreat!
Chen Dao, who was confronting the Nanman in central Shu, sat in the camp, frowning and staring at the letter in his palm, his face was full of heaviness.

After a long while, Chen Dao sighed faintly, and put down the letter weakly in his palm, "Hey, troublesome autumn."

After sighing, Chen Dao's face gradually revealed a heavy color, he spread out a blank sheet of paper, and the hand holding the brush did not put down the pen for a long time.

Tick-tock-tick-tock
The black ink dripped onto the white paper, and finally he took a deep breath, and dropped the brush heavily.

brush ~

The pen was like splashing ink, but Chen Dao's face showed a look of grief.

The breeze blows in through the tent, Chen Dao has stopped writing, and the ink on the paper has dried up.

A bitter smile appeared on his face, and Chen Dao said in a sad voice, "Someone here, send this letter to the Nanman camp."

promise!
People came and left quickly, but Chen Dao in the tent was holding the brush in his hand firmly.

click~

The hard pen holder broke, and Chen Dao couldn't help the anger in his chest and roared in a low voice: "Nanman! Next time, I will never go around you lightly!"

That night, a letter was delivered to the Nanman Camp, and the messenger came back with a bruised nose and a swollen face, but it was not over yet.

On the second day, wooden carts were rolled out from the camp of the Shu army.

Under the blowing of the autumn wind, the dense banners were buzzing even more, but the densely packed Shu army showed an atmosphere of decay.

Chen Dao, who was sitting on his horse in front of the Wanjun formation, stared straight at the Nanman barracks in the distance.

As time passed, the morale of the Shu army became even lower, and they looked at their generals with dry mouths and helpless eyes.

And Chen Dao's face became even more ugly, staring at the Nanman barracks in the distance and couldn't help but groan.

"I will invite Meng Huo again."

promise!
At this moment, the Nanman barracks in the distance slowly made a click~click sound, and the heavy gate finally opened under the gaze of the Shu army's piercing eyes.

rumbling~
The dense Nanman army finally appeared, and Meng Huo, who was among the thousands of troops, yawned as if he had just woken up.

At this time, it was already high in the sun, and Meng Huo, who squinted his eyes, couldn't help but sneered when he saw the ferocious eyes of the Shu army who wanted to eat him raw.

Seeing Meng Huo's figure appear, Chen Dao breathed a sigh of relief, slowly raised his arms and cupped his fists and shouted loudly, "Barbarian king, here are two hundred carts of grain."

The Nanman soldiers in front of the battle showed greedy expressions one by one when they saw the wooden cart full of grain.

But Meng Huo first stretched his waist and squinted at the Shu army in the distance and said with a strange smile: "I don't know who it is, so it's General Chen Dao."

"Why, don't you lead your troops to attack the king today? Stop talking nonsense and say that with you here, we will definitely kill us?"

Two consecutive shouts and inquiries came, and Chen Dao, who was wearing a battle armor, couldn't help but clenched the weapon in his hand.

Looking at the unscrupulous Meng Huo who mocked him in the distance with devouring eyes, Chen Dao took a deep breath and yelled, "Meng Huo, leave as soon as you take the things, or is it that the barbarian king will break his promise and be successful with the world?"

Pooh!
After taking a sip, Meng Huo roared in disgust, "It's no good for you to treat everyone else as villains like Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang."

"Everyone in your world has the face of Liu Bei."

Speaking of this, Meng Huo seemed to have thought of something, and he couldn't help shaking his head in annoyance and said, "Damn it, I almost forgot that it was Liu Bei who cheated his nephew in Shuzhong."

"Tsk tsk~ No wonder the Five Tigers general Ma Chao wants to join the enemy. I wouldn't want to work under such a master."

haha~

Immediately, the Nanman army in front of the formation burst into laughter, the faces of the Shu soldiers turned pale with anger, and Chen Dao clenched his teeth and made harsh noises.

"If the barbarian king wanted to break his promise, he wouldn't mind letting blood flow here!"

After the last four words were uttered, Chen Dao looked at Meng Huo in the distance with a look of madness on his face, as if he would go to war if the other party dared to refuse the next moment.

Looking at the face of the Shu army general.After seeing all kinds of siege equipment exposed from the Shu army in the distance, Meng Huo couldn't help but let out a cold snort.

He knew that he couldn't force the Shu army anymore, otherwise this group of Shu troops who were eager to return would go crazy, and he would have to face a group of crazy Shu troops.

"Hmph~ Your master can't let Lao Tzu say what he's done, can't you still stop the world from talking?"

"Brother!" After Meng Huo's unconvinced and stubborn counterattack just now, the brothers behind him couldn't help but quickly pulled off his elder brother's armor and comforted him urgently.

"Okay, got it."

Meng Huo nodded helplessly, waved his hand and shouted: "Erlang, go and get back the gift owed by the Shu army to this king."

haha~

The Nanman army burst into laughter one by one, and thousands of Nanman soldiers came out one by one.

As if they were angry with the Shu army, this group of Nanman soldiers not only moved slowly, but also seemed to be specially doing it for the Shu army, and checked each one slowly.

In this scene, Chen Dao was so angry that his face was ashen, and he suppressed the desire to kill in his heart and stared at the group of southern barbarians.

After half an hour, this group of procrastinating Nanman soldiers dragged the food sent by the Shu army back to the army formation.

Looking at the soldiers returning with full load, Meng Huo couldn't help nodding his head in satisfaction.

"Disturbed my sleep, next time I will ask the general to come earlier."

haha~

Clearly saying that the other party disturbed his sleep, but still telling the other party to come earlier next time, this is simply a sarcastic remark.

For a moment, the angry Shu army glared at the group of barbarians angrily.

Chen Dao couldn't help but sneered and said, "Okay, next time I'll ask the barbarian king to sleep in the camp before coming back."

After finishing speaking, Chen Dao snorted coldly, reined in his horse and shouted at the Shu army behind him: "Take back the troops and return to the camp."

wow~
The Shu army left, and Nanman's wanton laughter came from behind.

"Haha~ Big brother has this batch of food, big brother is firmly seated as the king of the Nanman."

"That's right, Your Majesty, why don't we ask for a bigger sum."

"In my opinion, this Shu army is at the end of its rope, so why not bite a piece of meat hard."

When the Nanman soldiers saw the countless grains, they were suddenly greedy, and their eyes were even more greedy.

Meng Huo couldn't help but snorted coldly after seeing this, "Now the Shu army is already a mad dog in a hurry. If we continue to provoke them, I'm afraid this mad dog will bite us back."

"Besides, we have already got what we want, so let the Shu army leave it to the Han people to fight on their own."

With a cold snort, Meng Huo reined in his horse and walked towards the barracks, while Meng You behind him said worriedly, "Brother, are we going to retreat now? If the Shu army breaks its promise again!"

Meng Huo sneered disdainfully at his brother's worries.

"No, the Shu army didn't dare this time either. King Wu's army is approaching Shu Han, and Liu Bei is far away in Jingzhou. Only Chen Dao's troops can rescue them as quickly as possible."

"And you don't have to worry that we will offend King Wu if we retreat."

When he said this, Meng Huo showed a weird smile.

　Sorry, I just came back from working overtime, please forgive me for the late update.
