Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 523 Chaos at Hangu Pass!
"Soldiers who are closed!"

"Why did we join the army?"

"Is it to achieve great things, or to fight hard on the front lines and still have to go hungry?"

"Cao is a wicked man. He has made our soldiers so hungry and exhausted. Should we still fight for him?"

"Come and surrender! If you surrender, you will be fed with rice and meat!"

"I can still continue to make achievements, isn't it wonderful!"

Just when Cao Zhang was at his wit's end, he heard Xing Daorong screaming in front of the pass again.

This guy…

He actually started to recruit soldiers to surrender right in front of him!

hateful!

Too hateful!
Although he wanted to cut Xing Daorong into pieces, it was just a thought.

Right now... he can only let Xing Daorong disrupt the morale of his troops.

Unless you can also get a pot of broth in the pass, you can't solve this problem.

However, such an ordinary little thing was more difficult than climbing to the sky during the period of food shortage!
Just when I was at a loss of what to do, I suddenly heard a loud roar from below the gate.

"Xing Daorong!"

"Shameless, cowardly bandit!"

"Look, I'm coming to kill you!"

It turned out that Cao Xiu, who had heard about this together, could not stand Xing Daorong's arrogance, so he rushed out of the pass to kill him.

Cao Zhang became very anxious when he saw this!
He immediately said to the deputy general beside him, "Quick! Sound the horn to call back the troops and tell General Cao Xiu to come back!"

When the adjutant heard this, he hurried over, but it was too late.

A moment after Cao Xiu rushed out, he heard a cannon shot from behind the meat pot.

Soon, Ma Chao and Zhang Liao rushed out from both sides and rushed towards Cao Xiu.

Cao Xiu would not be able to withstand any one of these two people, let alone now it is two against one!
Cao Xiu could only fight for three rounds before he was about to be defeated, so he hurried back to the pass.

But then another horn sounded, and it was Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin who rushed out.

Cao Xiu was shocked when he saw this. Seeing that Xing Daorong had made all the careful arrangements, he thought he would die here today.

Just at the critical moment, the drums sounded loudly, and it was Cao Zhang who led his entire army to charge out!
Cao Zhang even shouted: "Wen Lie, don't worry, I will come out with all my strength and will definitely save you!"

Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin did not seem to expect Cao Zhang to be so desperate. Cao Xiu only heard one of them say, "Not good! We each only have 500 soldiers, and there are at least 10,000 soldiers in Guanzhong. If they all come to attack us, we will probably be defeated!"

Another person also echoed: "Damn, this Cao Zhang is really brave, isn't he afraid that we will sneak through the pass! It's a pity that we haven't figured it out yet, so we have to retreat first."

"It's okay, it's okay. Although our general has made every possible plan, we didn't expect Cao Zhang to be so crazy. Let him go today and force him to the pass tomorrow."

As the two men spoke, they turned their horses and rode back to the army without any hesitation.

Although Cao Xiu escaped death, he did not feel happy at all. He could hear the conversation between the two generals in front of him clearly.

Although I have escaped a disaster for now, I really don’t know when I will lose my life.

Besides, I don’t know how many days we can hold Hangu Pass!
What the two generals said was right. If we continue like this, it is only a matter of time before we lose Hangu Pass!
What should we do!

Waiting is just death!
Otherwise...Is it necessary to fight to the death?
As he thought about it, Cao Xiu gave up the idea of ​​defending the pass for the first time.

It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s that I can’t!

If they wait any longer, Xu Huang won't come back yet, and these soldiers will be seduced away by Xing Daorong's soup!

When discussing with Ziwen, Xing Daorong was obviously not prepared for Ziwen's entire army to go out of the border. Maybe there is a chance to defeat the enemy!

...

However, when Cao Xiu was preparing for a desperate fight, although Xing Daorong failed to capture Cao Xiu, none of them looked distressed.

On the contrary, they are all very relaxing.

"Haha, you saw the faces of the soldiers behind the gate!" "They were drooling!"

Ma Chao hated the Cao family the most.

As long as there was an opportunity to mock Cao's army, he would not miss it.

Actually, this joke is inappropriate.

After all, there is Zhang Liao!

After all, he is an old minister of the Cao family.

Although he had enabled him to face off against Cao's army head-on, Zhang Liao still remembered some old friendships.

It's not nice to say this in front of him.

However, Ma Chao's feelings are understandable. It is not so easy to let go of the hatred of genocide.

Xing Daorong was afraid that Zhou Tai and the others would agree, so he quickly took over the conversation: "Alas... This is a helpless move to attack the heart."

"It is not my intention to tease people like this!"

"But if we don't do this now, there will be many unexpected events in Hangu Pass, so we have to use this method."

Xing Daorong was speaking now, and no matter whether what he said made sense or not, everyone just nodded.

So Ma Chao started the conversation and the topic was interrupted.

After a while, Zhou Tai asked again: "General...why didn't you just capture Cao Xiu, but let him go?"

good…

This time, it was Xing Daorong who deliberately gave the order to let Cao Xiu go.

Otherwise, there would be no need for Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin to take action later. Ma Chao and Zhang Liao alone would have dealt with Cao Xiu directly!

It was intentional to give him a way out.

When Xing Daorong heard what Zhou Tai asked, he had nothing to hide and told him his plan directly.

"Killing Cao Xiu is not really a great achievement for us right now."

"And since Cao Xiu was able to rush out this time, it means his mind is in a mess!"

"In that case, let's keep him. After all, a general with a confused mind is the enemy general we need."

indeed!

Now, killing a general is no longer a big deal. To everyone, this military achievement is indeed not something to be jealous of.

The only one who might need military merit is Zhang Liao, who has surrendered.

However, he didn't really need to have the military achievement of killing Cao's generals on the battlefield.

Ma Chao said: "There is no rush to kill Cao Xiu. It would be best if we can capture him all at once and break through the pass."

Everyone around nodded, and then Zhang Liao, who had not spoken yet, asked: "General... But Cao Xiu suffered a loss once, can he still come out?"

"I'm afraid he's going to be taught a lesson and can't leave the prison again."

Xing Daorong seemed quite confident when he heard this.

But he said: "This... depends on the acting skills of Generals Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin."

Zhou Tai and the other two laughed, "Don't worry, General. Our acting skills are not that good, but they are enough to make Cao Xiu take the bait!"

As he was speaking, he heard a deputy general outside report: "General, generals, there are several Cao Wei soldiers running over from Hangu Pass, saying they want to surrender to us!"

"How should we deal with this?"

Upon hearing this, Xing Daorong suddenly stood up and said to the deputy general, "Prepare good wine and good meat, let them eat to their heart's content!"

After that, he said to Ma Chao and other generals: "Everyone, prepare well. If Cao Xiu falls into the trap, it will be in these two days!"

"This Hangu Pass...we are ready to take it!"
