Three Kingdoms: Wolong's brother-in-law, tricking Liu Bei into seizing Jingzhou

"Your Majesty, the situation is hopeless, let's retreat!"

Dian Wei's hoarse shout awakened Cao Cao, who was in a daze.

Looking around, the 60,000-strong army had collapsed and was retreating on all fronts.

Cao Cao clenched his fists, his face twisted with sadness and anger.

The facts are clear as day.

Liu Bei, or Xiao Fang, or even Fa Zheng and other Han advisers, saw through Cheng Gongying's plan.

Only this can explain why the Han reinforcements arrived more than three days earlier than expected.

Such a brilliant plan was still seen through. What else could this be but God's will for you, Cao Cao?
The surprise attack on Chencang failed and the soldiers suffered heavy losses. They fled in defeat. How could they defend Jicheng if they returned?
How could they resist the 300,000 Han troops?
Cao Cao was unwilling to accept this.

He was unwilling to escape in such disgrace, and unwilling to lose the last chance to turn the tide and defend Longxi.

"Swish swish~~"

More than ten sharp arrows whizzed towards him.

Several Yulin guards in front of him were caught off guard and were pinned to the ground.

"Be careful, Your Majesty!"

Dian Wei shouted loudly, and rushed forward with his halberd in hand, blocking several sharp arrows for Cao Cao.

There was still an arrow that flew past Cao Cao's ear and almost hit him.

Cao Cao was startled and looked up, only to see hundreds of Han cavalry galloping towards him.

They rode and shot arrows all the way, and their arrows madly harvested the lives of Qin soldiers.

"Your Majesty, please leave now, or we won't be able to leave!"

Dian Wei protected Cao Cao with his halberd while trying to persuade him.

Cao Cao's resentment and anger were instantly dissipated at this moment.

"Retreat, the entire army retreats to the Wei River, retreats to Longxi——"

Cao Cao screamed, turned his horse around, whipped his horse and fled.

Dian Wei and other Yulin Guards felt relieved and turned around to protect Cao Cao as they fled towards the Wei River.

Still a beat late.

More than a hundred white horse volunteers rushed forward with unstoppable force and dispersed Cao Cao and his Yulin Guards.

Cao Cao was only concerned with escaping for his life, but he did not expect that the imperial guards around him were in chaos and only less than a few riders were left to protect him.

"Cao thief, where are you escaping to——"

A young man's roar rang in my ears.

Cao Cao's heart trembled, and he glanced quickly, only to see a young Han general riding a horse like the wind, attacking him from the side.

Deng Ai.

The attacking general was none other than Deng Ai.

In the chaos of the army, he was originally harvesting heads when he suddenly discovered the location of Cao Cao's imperial flag.

Glancing intently, he vaguely saw a group of knights, surrounding a middle-aged man in golden armor and a red robe, fleeing quickly.

Who else could it be but Cao Cao?

At that moment, Deng Ai's eyes became bloodshot and he urged his horse to charge forward regardless of everything.

That’s Cao Cao.

The Emperor of Qin, Emperor Liu Bei, is the last enemy in this world.

If Cao Cao is captured and killed alive, the Qin Empire will collapse!
Liu Bei will destroy Qin ahead of time, unify the world, and achieve the great cause of being the greatest emperor in history!

And, at the age of fifteen, he will achieve the unparalleled feat of capturing the false emperor in one battle.

It’s no problem to become famous!

Driven by this idea, Deng Ai killed wildly all the way, chopping down the blocking Qin soldiers like grass, and in an instant he was close to Cao Cao.

"Deng Ai is here, Cao thief, accept your death!"

With a loud shout, Deng Ai put all his strength into one shot and stabbed towards Cao Cao's head with a force that could shake the sky and crack the earth.

"Is there such a young general with outstanding martial arts skills in the Han army?"

Cao Cao was shocked.

But he was Cao Cao after all, a man who had seen many storms and waves, and he did not lose his composure in this critical moment.

Seeing the gun coming, he quickly drew his sword and blocked it with his backhand.

Deng Ai's eyes were full of arrogance, but the tip of his spear continued to thrust forward.

Can a mere sword really withstand his full-strength attack?
The next moment, the sword and spear collided.

"Crack!" A tearing sound was heard.

The tip of the gun was cut off!

Deng Ai's eyes suddenly widened, and for a moment he looked as if he had seen a ghost.

Weapons like swords are mostly used for self-defense and decoration, and their power cannot match that of heavy weapons like the spear.

The sword in Cao Cao's hand could incredibly cut off his silver spear?

What kind of magic sword is this that can cut through iron like mud!

Deng Ai was shocked for a moment, his eyes shot towards the sword in Cao Cao's hand, and suddenly he thought of something.

He had heard rumors that Cao Cao once obtained two swords that could cut through iron like mud, one named Yitian and the other named Qingguang.

The Qinggang sword was worn by his guards, while the Yitian sword was worn by Cao Cao close to his body.

The sword that Cao Cao is holding now must be the Yitian sword, which was able to cut off his silver spear.

Cao Cao cut off Deng Ai's silver spear with one sword, thinking that he had caught the opponent off guard, and took advantage of the situation to slash back with the Heavenly Sword, hoping to take Deng Ai's life.

Who would have guessed.

Deng Ai was no ordinary unknown person. He learned martial arts from Zhao Yun and his strength was comparable to that of the top generals of the time.

After a start, he immediately regained his composure and swung the gun handle without a tip in an angle like lightning.

"Crack!"

With a dull thud, the gun barrel took the lead and hit Cao Cao's wrist heavily.

The blow was so powerful that Cao Cao's wrist was broken.

"what--"

With a scream, Cao Cao could no longer hold the sword in his hand, it fell out of his hand and stuck into the ground.

Deng Ai did not give him a chance to breathe. The gun barrel turned into an iron rod and smashed towards Cao Cao's face.

Life and death are at hand.

Cao Cao didn't care about the pain of his broken wrist and quickly retracted his neck.

"clang!"

The spear hit Cao Cao's golden helmet.

The golden helmet fell off with a sound, and Cao Cao's hair bun was messed up. In an instant, his hair was disheveled and he looked extremely embarrassed.

Cao Cao didn't care about his embarrassment. He took advantage of the opportunity, endured the severe pain of his broken wrist, and quickly turned his horse and fled.

"Cao thief, where are you going!"

How could Deng Ai let go of the fat meat that he had already got? He threw away his gun, grabbed the Yitian sword on the ground, and chased after Cao Cao.

"You bastard, get away from my emperor!"

At the critical moment, another loud shout was heard.

In panic, Cao Cao suddenly raised his head and saw the lost Dian Wei finally rushing towards him.

"Dian Wei, save me, save me——"

Cao Cao seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and shouted hoarsely at Dian Wei.

"Your Majesty, go first. I will kill this thief!"

Dian Wei rode past Cao Cao, waving the iron halberd in his hand, and went to intercept Deng Ai.

Hearing the name Dian Wei, Deng Ai couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

The title of the most powerful general in Qin State is known to everyone in the world, so how could he not know it?

When it comes to martial arts, even his master Zhao Yun claimed that he could at most be on par with Dian Wei.

Deng Ai knew his own strengths and weaknesses very well, and he could never be a match for Dian Wei.

But how could Cao Cao be willing to let go of this big piece of fat meat?
Deng Ai was unwilling to give in, so he gritted his teeth, wielded the sword, and attacked head-on.

The double halberds in Dian Wei's hands also slashed forward with the force of thunder.

Swords and spears collided.

"Crack!"

There was a dull tearing sound.

The double halberds in Dian Wei's hands were actually cut off by the Yitian sword!

"Eternal Sword?"

"He actually took away the Emperor's Heavenly Sword?"

The ferocity on Dian Wei's face turned into horror, and his expression suddenly changed. (End of this chapter)
