Two hours later, these natives had gained a lot, and when they couldn't wait to rush back to the city, suddenly groups of Cao soldiers rushed over from all directions, with guns shining coldly, even at night Under the cover of se, it is also eye-catching.Those native villagers fled in a panic in fright, but there were Cao Jun's shadows all over the mountains and plains. Soon these native villagers were all caught and tied up by Cao soldiers, and escorted back to Cao Ying to meet Cao Cao.

When Cao Bing escorted the native people to Cao Ying, the night was leaving early, and it was already dawn.Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard the report from the soldiers, and hurried to see the captured natives. Casual attitude.

Cao Cao didn't get angry because of this, instead he ordered the soldiers to bring dry food and give it to these local people.The natives still had a bit of backbone and wanted to reject Cao Cao.But when they saw the pieces of dry biscuits, their blood spurted out and their brains exploded with a bang. They all rushed towards the dry biscuits in Cao Bing's hand, picked them up, and slammed them into their mouths. stuffed.It may be because of eating too fast. A native man almost choked to death. Fortunately, a Cao soldier gave him water to swallow in time, which prevented a ridiculous tragedy from happening.Soon, these natives ate up the dry biscuits given by Cao Bing, but their hunger was not eliminated, but became more intense. They stared at Cao Cao with extremely complicated eyes, pleading and pleading. Urgent, and more threatening in it, as if if Cao Cao didn't give them dry food, they would rush to fight Cao Cao desperately.

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes and suddenly laughed.

"Hehe, do you still want it?"

The natives nodded quickly like chickens pecking at rice.

"Reciprocity is a matter of courtesy. This prime minister can feed the few of you, but on the contrary, you have to do something for this prime minister in return."

As soon as Cao Cao's words came out, the faces of those natives changed drastically, and they shook their heads immediately, one of the natives said even more.

"Liu Xuzhou is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness. How can we turn our backs on him for a little food! If you want to kill him or cut him into pieces, you can invite him. If I frown, I will not be a good man!"

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes again and again, almost into a slit, and said with a smile.

"Hehe, don't worry. I won't kill you. Someone, drive them out of the camp!"

Cao Cao waved his hand, and suddenly issued an order, the expressions of those native people changed again, as if they never thought that Cao Cao would let them go.Soon several native people ran out of Cao Ying under the push of Cao Bing's guns.Seeing that Cao Bing did not come after him, the natives hurried down the mountain and fled.But when they were about to flee, the natives couldn't help but glanced at Cao Ying, as if there was something inside that made them reluctant to leave.

The natives who had escaped from death secretly sneaked under the city of Longquan, and the natives who were the internal correspondents received the signal, opened the gate of the city a little, and let them enter the city.

"How? You didn't come back all night, can you gain anything?"

These natives had made a plan at first, some of them went out to look for food, and some stayed in the city to watch the wind, waiting for the return of those who went out to look for food, and then as a response, they were responsible for opening the city gate for those who returned.

"Hey! Unlucky, don't talk about it, I almost died!"

"Ah! Could it be that you were discovered by Cao Bing!"

"Hush! Shut up, this is not a place to talk. You wait and come with me."

One of the natives pointed to the open space beside him, and led seven or eight natives to an open space.

"It's weird to say. Our brothers were indeed discovered by Cao Bing last night and were also captured by them. However, after we were escorted to Cao Ying, we saw the Han Prime Minister Cao Cao. Not only did he not attack us with swords and sticks , instead gave our brothers dry food to eat, and later he wanted our brothers to do things for him, but Liu Xuzhou is so benevolent, how could we betray. Seeing my refusal, Cao Cao didn't get angry, and even ordered us to let us go .”

After the native man said, a simple, honest and dull man's face suddenly changed, he quickly grabbed the man who was talking with one hand, and tried to dig into his mouth with his hand.

"Hey! You're crazy!"

"Fool! Don't avoid it, I'm here to save you. Aren't you afraid that Cao Cao is poisoning your rations!"

"You are an idiot! Cao Cao is such a character, how can he use these indiscriminate tricks against us little people. What's more, if Cao Cao wants to kill us, he can just order a few soldiers to do it, so why bother to poison us?" !"

"Uh. What you said is also reasonable. But we are clearly hostile to Cao Cao, why he not only doesn't kill you, but gives you food instead is beyond comprehension."

"Cao Cao can be the prime minister of the Han people, how can we civilians guess what he thinks. Anyway, this matter will stop here, don't mention it again. Otherwise, it will be known by other people and reported to the elders of the clan. Liu Xuzhou will not punish us severely, and the elders of the clan will not easily bypass us!"

After discussing in the dark for a while, the seven or eight natives dispersed separately.

Day by day, hunger and thirst are like ten thousand ants devouring every commoner and soldier in Longquan County, and more and more people are dying of hunger and thirst, especially those newborn babies, who are already dying every day. Nearly dozens of people died → In Quanxian County, shrill, heart-piercing cries sounded from time to time.

One day, two native men couldn't bear it anymore. Their wives kowtowed and cried. They both had newborn babies. If they didn't eat, they would watch their babies starve to death.

These two native men were exactly two of the group of natives who were captured by Cao Jun. They called their accomplices from the past to discuss and wanted to go to Cao Ying to ask for food. At this moment, in order to get food for their children Saving their lives, they no longer cared whether the move would be successful, as long as there was a trace of it, they would firmly grasp it.

At night, the two native men sneaked out of the city again and rushed all the way to Caoying.Soon, the two native men were caught by the patrolling Cao soldiers, and they were brought to Cao Cao again. Just as Yu was about to eat the cake, he suddenly thought of the baby at home, so he quickly stopped talking, and then stuffed the dry cake into his arms, trying to put it away.

"Hey, the prime minister gave you two dry biscuits, why don't you eat them?"

"Prime Minister, forgive me! The villain has been hungry for several days, and there is no food to import. I am afraid that he will not survive for a few more days! I hope the prime minister will give the villain some more dry biscuits. There are still many in the city. Baby, I'm starving to death!"

Cao Cao mused, looking at the two native men silently, and said with a bit of regret.

"You know that there is no food in the city, and it is difficult to hold on. If you continue like this, within three days, most of the people in the city will starve to death, and after five days, there will be no living people left in the city. Could it be that at this time, you still have to wait? Be obsessed with your obsession, and help that big-eared thief stick to Longquan!"

"Liu Xuzhou is benevolent!!!"

"Bullshit benevolence and righteousness!!! If that Liu Da'er understood the word benevolence and righteousness, he should open the city gate and surrender voluntarily! Instead of letting you wait to be buried with him!!! He can't even keep the lives of your people, so what the hell? Benevolence!!!"

Before the native man had finished speaking halfway, he was abruptly blocked back by Cao Cao's loud shout.Every word in Cao Cao's words seems to have a magical power, which makes the two natives almost unable to keep their hearts.

"Can…"

"But what!? This prime minister might as well tell you that I have enough food in the camp to last for another three months. You will only die when you wait to defend Longquan! That's all, I promise you to take these few pieces of dry food back. But this is the last Once, if you dare to ask for food again, don't blame the Prime Minister for being ruthless!"

"Ah! Prime Minister Cao is magnanimous, the villain will kowtow to you!"

Cao Cao suddenly grabbed a few dry biscuits with one hand and threw them at the two natives.The two natives quickly caught it with expressions of excitement, and then kowtowed heavily to Cao Cao.

But Cao Cao was smiling coldly.

"Hmph. How long can you last with just these few pieces of dry food? One day? Two days? Or one month? This prime minister is just pitiful. , and lost his life!"

Cao Cao's abrupt words rang out suddenly, breaking the moral line of defense in the hearts of the two natives.As Cao Cao said, these few dry biscuits can be eaten by the children in the city for a day at most, and it won't take long for the children to starve to death again.

Tiger poison does not eat its offspring, not to mention human beings.

Cao Cao saw it in his eyes, and he repeatedly attacked his heart, waiting for this opportunity.But Cao Cao was not in a hurry, but waited quietly.

After half a stick of incense, the two natives seemed to have made a decision and bowed heavily to Cao Cao.Cao Cao smiled brightly, and immediately ordered the soldiers to bring more piles of dry food, and placed them in front of the two natives.

At the same time, in Longquan City, Liu Bei was so hungry that he couldn't sleep. He was walking in the backyard of the mansion. Suddenly, Liu Bei's heart twitched and he stopped walking. An ominous premonition arose in his heart.

"Heaven!!! Why do you torture me like this, Liu Xuande!!! I have royal blood, but I can't be recognized by the world. After years of hard work, the power I finally gathered was lost in one day!!! Being forced into such a miserable situation by Cao Mengde, can't heaven really tolerate me!!!!"

Liu Bei was tortured by hunger and thirst for many days, his body was as thin as dry wood, his face was pale and bloodless, just like a mummy.He looked up at Haoyue with a ferocious and terrifying face, roaring desperately in his heart!

In the middle of the night, at the north gate of Longquan.The two natives who came back from Cao Ying gave a signal, and soon the north city gate slowly opened. Before the people inside could speak, the two natives held a large package of dry food in their hands. Just a push into the crack of the door.The natives inside the door didn't know what it was, and they didn't have time to pick it up. Suddenly, hundreds of dry biscuits in the bag fell to the ground.

It was like a hungry wolf who was dying of hunger, suddenly saw a big piece of bloody meat, and immediately the natives inside the door rushed towards the dry biscuits on the ground as if they were going mad.

The two natives took the opportunity to push one side of the city gate, and opened a huge gap in the city gate with all their strength.And those natives who were scrambling for dry biscuits didn't have the heart to manage the city gate, and stuffed dry biscuits from the ground into their mouths.However, the loud noise of the city gate's movement awakened many of the natives guarding the city.After the natives were awakened, they yelled and ran towards the city gate.

At this moment, a cavalry army flying like a fiery wind outside the north gate rushed towards the gap in the city gate under the leadership of Cao Chun.

This cavalry army is the ace under Cao Cao's command, the tiger and leopard cavalry.I saw that every tiger and leopard rider was carrying a rolling burden. Cao Chun, who was the first to bear the brunt, rushed into the city gate first. Throwing it into the air, countless dry biscuits immediately fell from the air.

For the Longquan natives, at this moment, these dry biscuits are like a fatal temptation. When these dry biscuits appear, their hunger immediately occupies all their thoughts, and they frantically rush towards the dry biscuits falling in the air.Afterwards, every tiger and leopard cavalry rushed in, following Cao Chun's example, throwing the bag full of dry biscuits into the air, and the dry biscuits fell like raindrops, causing every native to fall into a madness that lost their minds.
