Cao Cao raised a bitter and deep smile, his voice was full of self-mockery and helplessness, "So it's Zilong, are you here to take my life? No hurry, do you want to have a meal together first?"
Cao Cao had completely given up on himself. After seeing Zhao Yun, he not only did not run away, but instead waved the wine jug towards Zhao Yun.
"I'm sorry, Prime Minister, your mental state has been like this since the Battle of Changbanpo."
Cao Chun confessed his crime to the two men and left in a hurry.
The peace of Yecheng needs the protection of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. It is soon time for the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to patrol. He has a heavy responsibility and cannot slack off in the slightest.
Cao Cao, who once led an army of one million, lost almost all his troops after the Battle of Changbanpo, and his spiritual support collapsed.
Cao Cao now regards every day as the last day of his life, which is why his life seems so decadent.
Zhao Yun frowned, walked to the table, picked up a pot of wine without any hesitation, and poured it at Cao Cao.
The cold wine was like a cool spring, instantly waking Cao Cao from his tipsy state.
He shuddered suddenly, and all the drunkenness disappeared.
Cao Cao came to his senses and saw Zhao Yun in front of him. He instinctively took two steps back.
But the next second, Cao Cao quickly noticed something unusual about Zhao Yun.
Although Zhao Yun's armor was stained with blood, there was no longer the madness and murderous intent in his eyes as he had at Changbanpo.
"Zilong, you are finally back to normal. With Zilong's help, I will be able to do it."
Cao Cao's words came to an abrupt end, replaced by a heavy sigh.
His eyes dimmed and he sat down at the table again.
"It's useless." Cao Cao smiled bitterly and shook his head. He picked up the wine jug in his hand and drank it headlong. "The catastrophe of world destruction is beyond human power to resist."
As Cao Cao told the story, Lin Yi and Zhao Yun finally understood what the historical process of this world was all about.
Cao Cao was one of the first people to discover that there was something wrong with this world. During the campaign against the Yellow Turban Army, he began to notice the appearance of those possessed by demons.
These people, who have been eroded by the energy of the ancient gods, have abnormal minds and behave like demons, posing a great threat to the stability of public security.
During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, there were not many demons, and Cao Cao only needed to send a small team to effectively suppress these possessed people.
But as time went on, the situation became more serious.
More and more people are invaded by the ancient god's energy, their minds undergo changes, and they are transformed into demons.
Not only is this change surging in number, but its scope is also expanding.
The fuse of the chaos was the sudden possession of Liu Biao's son Liu Qi.
Even though Liu Biao's son Liu Qi was not very capable, he was still a general with unparalleled skills.
When he was eroded by the energy of the ancient gods and transformed into a demon, his strength was greatly enhanced, and he became extremely cruel and powerful.
That day, Cao Cao sent two generals, Dian Wei and Xu Chu, to respond.
Dian Wei and Xu Chu, two famous generals on the battlefield, were as fragile as ordinary soldiers in Liu Qi's hands.
They were torn into two pieces alive by Liu Qi, the scene was horrific.
The 3,000 elite armored soldiers who accompanied the two men were also not spared and were all slaughtered under Liu Qi's attack.
It was also from that day that the chaos of demons spread throughout the world like wildfire.
Although Cao Cao had many soldiers under his command, an ant can kill an elephant, not to mention that a possessed person is even more terrifying than a tiger.
In this way, Cao Cao's men covered the people's retreat all the way.
In the Battle of Changbanpo, all members of Liu Bei's army were possessed by demons and the situation became uncontrollable.
Under the crazy attack of the demons, millions of Cao's troops eventually became their blood food, and no one escaped.
Cao Cao originally planned to retreat to Xu Du in order to regroup.
Unexpectedly, Xudu, as a populous city, became the first place to fall in the demon rebellion.
After the breakout from Xu Du, he had very few troops left, forcing him to retreat to Yecheng with the emperor.
Now the whole world is a land of demons, and Yecheng is like a lone boat in the ocean, in danger and may be besieged by demons at any time.
In this desperate situation, Cao Cao chose to retreat to the Tongque Tower, where he drank to drown his sorrows and lived a life of drunkenness and dreams.
One can imagine the helplessness and depression in his heart.
After he told Lin Yi and Zhao Yun about the current situation, he could no longer suppress his anger and helplessness. He punched the table with such force that a noticeable dent was made on the solid tabletop.
"Zilong, let's just live one day at a time. This world is beyond salvation." Cao Cao lay on the ground with his arms and legs spread out, looking decadent. He was completely different from the high-spirited Cao Cao in history.
When Zhao Yun saw this, he felt a strong sense of dissatisfaction in his heart.
He grabbed Cao Cao's collar tightly and shouted angrily, "You give up? What qualifications do you have to give up? Do you know that hundreds of thousands of soldiers under your lord have all been possessed by demons, and General Guan and his men are no exception. But there is not a single demon-possessed soldier under your command. Don't you understand what this means?"
Thinking of Zhuge Liang sacrificing himself every day, using himself as lamp oil to trap the entire army of demons in the camp.
Cao Cao in front of him was still living a life of drunkenness and debauchery. How could Zhao Yun not be angry at this attitude?
"How could it be that all of Liu Bei's men have been possessed by demons?" Cao Cao asked in astonishment. This news obviously had a huge impact on him.
When Cao Cao heard what Zhao Yun said, he seemed to have thought of something.
"There was news from the Eastern Wu before that all the officials of the Eastern Wu had been possessed by demons. Sun Jian and Sun Ce came back from the dead, and they devoured Sun Quan alive. Zhou Yu tried to break out, but unfortunately only a few pieces of news were heard."
When Cao Cao said this, he turned around and glanced at Cao Pi and others in the corner.
More than a dozen elite Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are guarding Cao Pi to ensure their safety.
Emperor Xian of Han was curled up on the dragon throne, his body trembling slightly, as if he was trying hard to suppress his inner panic.
His face was pale, without a trace of blood, and the corners of his mouth drooped slightly, revealing an indescribable desolation and helplessness.
Emperor Xian of Han's jet-black hair fell loosely on his shoulders, forming a sharp contrast with his thin and stiff face, making him look even more haggard.
The dragon robe hung loosely on his body, and his fingers lightly clasped the handle of the dragon throne, which was the only thing he could hold on to.
At this critical moment, Emperor Xian of Han also understood that the only person he could rely on was Cao Cao.
"I see. Is this the reason why the Emperor is absolutely safe as mentioned in the rules?"
Just now, Lin Yi detected some intelligence about Emperor Xian of Han, and finally understood why there was no possessed person around Cao Cao.

Chapter 558 I, Cao Cao, want to support the Han Dynasty (5K chapter, please subscribe, please vote)
"There is still hope for the world. As long as we find the imperial seal and light the seven-star lamp that Mr. Zhuge has laid, there will still be hope for the world."
"Use the imperial seal to light the Seven Star Lamp and let the light of the Seven Star Lamp last forever. It will surely clear the world."
"The Imperial Seal? The Seven-Star Lamp?"
There was a hint of confusion on Cao Cao's face, and it was obvious that he had not yet understood what Zhao Yun meant.
Seeing that Cao Cao looked doubtful, Zhao Yun repeated Zhuge Liang's words to him.
When Cao Cao heard that it was Zhuge Kongming's strategy, he couldn't help but nodded.
Cao Cao might have doubts about other people, but he would never doubt Zhuge Kongming's strategy.
After all, your enemy knows you best.
To be honest, if it weren't for Zhuge Kongming's advice to Liu Bei's army, Cao Cao would have defeated Liu Bei long ago.
"it is good!"
Cao Cao exhaled a breath of alcohol, then drew out the Sword of Heavenly Sword and swept all the dishes and drinks on the table in front of him to the ground.
"Zilong, are you willing to help me support the Han Dynasty and work together for the great cause?"
At this moment, Cao Cao's aura finally showed up, and an inexplicable domineering aura enveloped him.
Cao Cao's sons nearby were a little excited after seeing this scene. Ever since the defeat at Changbanpo, their father had been depressed and had lost his former ambition.
Now, they finally saw the return of the once powerful and ambitious Prime Minister Cao.
"Cao Cao? Support the Han Dynasty?" Lin Yi couldn't help but mutter a few words in a low voice after hearing Cao Cao's bold words.
Obviously, this sentence sounds very incongruous coming from Cao Cao's mouth.
Zhao Yun naturally also heard what Lin Yi said, and he couldn't help but smile.
It can be seen that he also felt that Cao Cao's words were far from his usual image and style, and somewhat ridiculous.
Just when Cao Cao was regaining his strength, a shrill scream suddenly came from outside the hall, followed by the dull sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.
This sudden change shocked everyone present. Without saying anything, they hurried to the door of the building to see what had happened.
Hundreds of strange-looking people broke through the defense of the Bronze Sparrow Tower. They had disheveled hair, red eyes, and twisted tentacles growing on their backs. They looked extremely terrifying.
They lost their minds and frantically attacked any obstacle that blocked their way.
Now the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are fighting with these possessed people.
However, due to the rules, although the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry could crush these possessed people physically, every time the other party opened their mouths, they would be fixed in place by some force and unable to move.
He could only watch helplessly as the opponent's tentacles broke into his chest bit by bit and cruelly dug his heart out of his chest.
Just as several Tiger and Leopard Knights closed their eyes and prepared to die, several rays of purifying light descended from the sky.
The trapped Tiger and Leopard Knights immediately felt their bodies lighten and they regained their freedom.
As elite soldiers under Cao Cao, these soldiers displayed extremely high combat qualities the moment they escaped from trouble.
Almost at the moment of escaping, several Tiger and Leopard Riders took their swords in one hand and their shields in the other to block the opponent's attacks.
The moment the shield blocked the opponent's vision, the blade shot out from the bottom of the shield and stabbed straight into the opponent's throat.
The attack was fast and fierce.
In an instant, the possessed man who was about to rush into the Bronze Sparrow Tower was pushed out by the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry soldiers.
In the past, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry could not fight back or respond to those possessed by demons, and could only watch their comrades being killed.
Now that they finally have the opportunity to fight back, these Tiger and Leopard Cavalry can finally vent their anger.
"Very good! Three of you will form a team and completely kill these monsters here!"
After witnessing this scene, Cao Chun was more excited than anyone else.
As the commander of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, Cao Chun had a very miserable time during this period.
Every time to deal with a possessed person, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry had to gather more than a dozen people to rely on their numerical advantage to defeat them.
However, this way of fighting also resulted in heavy casualties among the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. In the process of killing the possessed people, about half of the besiegers would be killed or wounded.
