I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 441 The death of Xiahou Dun caused Cao Ying to change
In a blink of an eye, the sky gradually became brighter, and Cao Cao's people from all walks of life who went to rob the village withdrew back according to the original plan.

Although this time did not achieve the expected goal, fortunately, they were able to withdraw quickly at the critical moment, without being ambushed by Liu Bei.

Otherwise, if the generals of the Cao army entered the enemy camp together with Zhang Miao and were trapped inside, they would not know how many more troops would be lost.

Although there is no big victory, since there is no big defeat, this is okay.

But it's a pity that Zhang Miao's army was lost in the opponent's camp. It's a pity.

Cao Cao can only hope that Zhang Miao's army can deal more blows to the opponent.

Looking around, Cao Cao couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw that the soldiers had already set up camp without any changes.

He found a clean place to sit down, stroked his beard and looked up at the sky.

"Liu Deran, Liu Xuande...hehe, in fact, what makes you stronger than Cao is nothing more than luck and geography."

"The fertile land of Hebei is in your hands. No matter how powerful Cao is, it is impossible to defeat you in the Central Plains battlefield in a short time..."

"It's a pity that fortune has made you and so on, so that you can achieve great things..."

"However, Cao is definitely not the type to let others plan. It is not easy for you to take advantage of Cao."

After talking about this, Cao Cao couldn't help showing a smug smile.

Obviously, although the battle last night did not achieve satisfactory results and returned without success, Cao Cao was quite satisfied with his arrangements.

At least, my surname Cao did not suffer from the surname Liu...

"Report!"

Cao Cao was thinking about it, when he saw Le Jin, who was in charge of the investigation of the three armies, approaching, cupped his hands and said to Cao Cao: "Minggong, all the soldiers and horses have withdrawn according to the established route according to Minggong's order! Those who have not arrived yet , there are only Cao Sima and Xiahou Sima."

"Zi Lian, Yuan Rang?"

When Cao Cao heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

A bad premonition rushed into his heart in an instant.

He hurriedly stood up and walked out of the camp.

Seeing Cao Cao's gloomy face, Le Jin didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly followed Cao Cao.

Along the way, many generals of the Cao army greeted Cao Cao when they saw him, but Cao Cao didn't reply.

Seeing Cao Cao's gloomy face, everyone knew that Duke Ming had something on his mind, so they retreated to the sides.

When he was young, Cao Cao came outside Dazhai and looked towards the north.

Xi Zhicai did not know when he came to Cao Cao's back, and there was worry on his face.

"Ming Gong forgives the crime, this matter is Zhong's negligence, never reminding the lord, don't let Cao Sima lead the army alone..."

Although Cao Cao was a little uncertain at this time, he was quite reasonable.

Cao Cao stretched out his hand to block Xi Zhicai's words.

"This matter has nothing to do with you. Zixiao is not here. Among the Cao Cao, there must be one person who leads the army alone. The only person in the battalion who can take on this role is Zilian... Even if Zhicai advised me, I was afraid I would not change your mind."

When Xi Zhi heard this, he let out a long sigh.

Cao Cao said regretfully, "I know that Zilian has a hot temper and is easily provoked by the enemy, but after thinking about it before, there should be no mistakes in what happened last night. After all, I have issued strict orders in advance..."

Speaking of this, in fact, Cao Cao still had some expectations in his heart.

He hoped he was being too careful.

"If something really happened, Cao Sima would not discuss it... But, Xiahou Sima is a prudent person, and he acts cautiously on weekdays. When he was a vanguard officer, he was also steady and steady, and he was in charge of moving the old camp. Will there be no news?"

For this point, Cao Cao was also very puzzled.

That's right, if anyone has a problem, Yuan Rang will not have a problem.

Cao Cao, who was still full of complacency just now, is very anxious now.

It shouldn't be, it shouldn't be!
Cao has already given such instructions, and is so careful, how can he let the surname Liu take advantage of the loopholes and give me...

"Minggong! Take a look!"

Following Xi Zhicai's shout, Cao Cao hurriedly looked up.

But I saw a army of soldiers and horses wearing their own costumes, coming from far to near, towards their own place.

Cao Cao's heart finally fell.

He smiled and looked at Xi Zhicai and Le Jin who had been silent beside him.

"Liu Jian is not a perfect person, let alone Liu Beiye? How can I let them take advantage of my loopholes..."

Le Jin kept squinting his eyes, as if he wasn't listening to Cao Cao's self-comforting boast.

He suddenly said: "Duke Ming, that soldier seems to be a remnant army..."

Cao Cao was taken aback when he heard this.

He looked again.

you do not say!

There were not many soldiers and horses, and all of them looked defeated, with incomplete clothes and armor, and some of them were injured at first glance, which clearly showed that they were a defeated army.

And the one who hit the horse and walked in the front was ashamed and dejected... Who is it if it is not Cao Hong?
When he was young, Cao Hong led a group of soldiers and horses to Cao Cao.

"Duke Ming! It's a death sentence for the last official!"

Hearing Cao Hong yell such a voice, how could Cao Cao not know what happened on the front line.

He frowned, took a deep breath, and asked Cao Hongdao, "What happened?"

Cao Hong was a man, and he didn't lie, so he reported to Cao Cao what happened last night.

Cao Cao almost fainted when he heard this.

It's not that he can't stand a defeat.

It's just that Xiahou Dun and Cao Cao have always had a close relationship, and they are also relatives of Cao Cao's clan, and he is cited as his arm.

But now, in order to save Cao Hong, he...

Cao Cao suppressed the grief in his heart, turned his head to look at the soldiers with gloomy faces, and suddenly laughed three times.

"Victory or defeat is a common matter for military strategists! Yuan Rang is a man who understands military tactics and reason! He also has both courage and strategy, and nothing will happen!"

After all, Cao Cao looked at Le Jin: "Wen Qian!"

"exist!"

"Quickly lead the troops in the headquarters to inquire about Yuan Rang's news. If you find out about his whereabouts, you can help him quickly and bring him back to the camp!"

"Here!"

After Le Jin finished speaking, he immediately went to gather troops.

Cao Cao ordered Xi Zhicai to appease the three armies on his behalf, and he himself took Cao Hong back to the commander's account.

After entering the handsome tent, Cao Cao suddenly turned his head and shouted at Cao Hong, "Kneel down!"

Cao Hong was startled, and immediately knelt down on one knee.

Cao Cao walked up to Cao Hong furiously, looked him up and down for a while, and suddenly slapped Cao Hong hard on the head with his hand.

Cao Cao's blow was not light. If it were an ordinary person, the punch would hit the forehead, and he might be knocked out directly.

But Cao Hong is also a tough guy, he knelt on the spot, gritted his teeth and insisted on not saying a word.

"Yuan Rang was killed by you, do you know that!" Cao Cao's tone was sad, and there was even a hint of crying in it.

Cao Hong pursed his lips, raised his head with red eyes, and looked at Cao Cao: "Didn't Duke Ming say that Yuan Rang would not be easy..."

"I did it to appease the morale of the army, to appease the soldiers! Hebei's soldiers and horses are so majestic, you can't run away when you are trapped in the formation, can Yuan Rang run away?!"

Cao Hong heard Cao Cao's roar, and tears flowed down the corners of his eyes.

However, no cry was heard.

Silent cry.

Cao Cao stomped back and forth in the handsome tent, his chest was congested, and he seemed to be looking for a place to vent, but he couldn't vent it in the end.

"You know how much I expect from you!"

Cao Cao suddenly stopped, and shouted at Cao Hong: "Our Cao family, Xiahou family, brothers, what are you getting together for!? To do great things! To leave a legacy in history, and to make our Cao family stand on top of the world! "

"Do you understand or not!"

"I, I let you lead the army alone, why?"

"That's to train you, to make you a talent, to make you a general, so that you can lead an army for our Cao family in the future!"

"But what about you?"

"What did you do?!"

"You are narrow-minded, you can't hold things, you can't hold your breath!!"

"A few swear words will drag you back!"

"This is your stomach? This is your bearing?!"

"You have let me down too much!"

"Did you kill Yuan to let you know?"

Hearing this, Cao Hong finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Wow wow wow ~~!"

He covered his face and wept bitterly, and said to Cao Cao: "Ming Gong, the last official should be punished for his crime! Please Ming Gong kill me to pay for Yuan Ren's life!"

"Bastard!"

Cao Cao went up and kicked Cao Hong down, and shouted at him, "Yuan Rang lost his life to save you, why?!"

"Did you come back to pay for his life?!"

"You bastard!"

When Cao Hong heard this, he slammed his head on the ground heavily.

"Ming Gong, the last official has been convicted! Yuan Rang died because of my violent temper and I couldn't tolerate it! From today on, Cao Hong's life is not Hong's own! You must keep in mind today's pain, today's pain... I will avenge Yuan Rang no matter what!"

Cao Cao had regained his composure a little at this time: "Go and get fifty army sticks, and be reduced to the head of the village."

"Here!"

"roll."

Cao Hong wiped the tears off his face, turned around and left the handsome tent.

After Cao Hong left, tears flowed down Cao Cao's face uncontrollably.

"Yuan Rang, Yuan Rang, your death is too unjust, too worthless..."

……

……

At this time, Xiahou Dun's body had been taken back by Zhao Yun and handed over to Liu Bei.

After Liu Bei found out Xiahou Dun's identity, he ordered Xingye to send Xiahou Dun's body and Zhang Miao to Liu Jian.

Let's see what Liu Jian will do to this mortal man.
