Everyone tried to persuade him again and again that Cao Cao was still a member of the Cao family.The death of cousin Cao Ren is nothing, but there is no way to explain to the ancestors when he goes back without bones.After much deliberation, Cao Cao finally followed everyone's advice.He waved his hand feebly: "That's all, just follow Long Fei's request! As long as I can get Zixiao back, I admit it! But I will avenge this revenge sooner or later!"

Five days later, at Shiyang between Jingling and Sanjiangkou, the two armies exchanged.A huge convoy of coffins came from Jingling.On Long Fei's side, Cao Ren was lying on a bullock cart in ragged clothes, the wound on his body was still open, the blood had already drained, and the whole body was rotten.Bursts of stench wafted in the air.No one wanted to get close, and each of them covered their mouths and noses with their hands at a distance.

"Play the music! Welcome our hero!" Zhang Yun shouted, and the musicians behind him immediately blew the sound of triumph. The rumbling drums, accompanied by the majestic shouts of the soldiers, overwhelmed the Cao army.

Jiang Ji handed over the delivery documents to Zhang Liao.After Zhang Liao saw it, he waved his hand, and the [-] soldiers who had been prepared behind him immediately stepped forward, knocked down the coachmen who were driving the chariots, and brought back all the coffins and chariots.Zhang Liao waved his hand when the last carriage passed by.The bullock cart made a creaking sound, and slowly moved towards Cao Jun.

Jiang Gan looked at it and shook his head again and again.Some soldiers hurriedly pulled over the coffin that had already been prepared, several people gently lifted Cao Ren, and slowly put it into the coffin without covering it.Because Cao Ren's death was miserable, his wounds and clothes were not taken care of, and he had to tidy up carefully after returning.Zhang Liao cupped his hands on the horse, put on the reins, turned the horse's head, and followed the advancing convoy towards Sanjiangkou.

Long Fei personally greeted the dead warrior at the entrance of the big tent.Ling Tong led the hundreds of people who came back from Hebin Village to kneel on the side of the road, kowtow every time a carriage passed, and shouted loudly: "Brother, go home!"

The Jiangdong army on the side watched the Jingzhou army do this with such fanfare, and some people were quite disapproving.Captain Fenwei Xu Sheng snorted coldly: "Hmph, the battle is imminent, and I don't know how to do such a thing without thinking about how to kill the enemy!"

This was just heard by Zhou Yu.Zhou Yu looked back at Xu Sheng and shook his head: "Hey! You are still too young. The reason why Long Jun is so strong and brave is because Long Fei values ​​every soldier. He did this not for the benefit of the dead. The family members of the deceased in Jingzhou explained, secondly, everyone in the Dragon Army can feel the warmth, this is the highest state of leading troops!"

Lu Su nodded: "It doesn't look interesting, but in fact, it made Long Jun desperate. With such an army, why can't he beat Cao Cao!"

"Didn't Brother Zijing say that Long Fei might lose?" Zhou Yu glanced at Lu Su intentionally.

"Cough!" Lu Su coughed, turned around and led the generals, captains, and captains from Moling away.

Long Fei was in the camp, and organized all the officers above the rank to pay homage to the [-] dead soldiers. The scene was grand.For this sacrifice, Long Fei prepared for half a month, and Sun Quan specially sent Yu Fan to come from Moling.When the worship was over, Long Fei asked Xun Yu and Jia Xu who were staying in Xiangyang to dispatch civilian vehicles and transport the three thousand soldiers and horses back in a mighty manner.There is another sacrifice in Xiangyang.

Grief mingled with excitement, the entire barracks had been raging for several days before it stopped.Looking closely at these two battles, although the losses were not large, they did not cause any serious damage to Cao Jun.Cao Cao will definitely not let it go after suffering some losses, and a big battle is already brewing.Cao Cao needed to cheer up his army and horses. If he was so depressed, he would have lost three points without a fight.

"Report...!" The messenger hurriedly rushed into the big tent: "My lord, Wuchang is empty, the Jiangdong Army is slack, and General Mao Jie has arrived in secret!"

Cao Cao nodded and waved his hand to signal the messengers to go down.Cheng Yu was taken aback: "Master, are you going to attack Wuchang?"

Cao Cao glanced at him: "Traveling the horse to report, Long Fei divided the Yangtze River defense line into two sections, with the Sanjiang Estuary as the boundary, and Long Fei guarded the west. It's even more difficult, but the Jiangdong Army is easier to deal with."

Liu Ye hurriedly said, "Didn't my lord send Mao Jie to look for Yu Jin, how did he arrive in Huangzhou?"

Cao Cao laughed and said: "It seems that even you have been deceived. Looking for Yu Jin is just a cover. Yu Jin is in the army, and Mao Jie was asked to lead the army to paralyze Long Fei and others. Now it seems that they don't care about Mao Jie. These soldiers and horses."

Dong Zhaodao: "Think twice, my lord. Although Wuchang is good, it is a small city and it is dilapidated. If we send people to attack Long Fei and Zhou Yu from both sides, we may suffer Huarong's defeat again! It is not too late to withdraw our troops for the current plan. My lord Wan Don’t get bogged down any deeper.”

Dong Zhao poured a basin of cold water, and everyone in the tent fell silent.Cao Cao also nodded silently, attacking Wuchang was extremely risky, and he didn't know if what the insider said was true.After thinking for a long time, Cao Cao said: "This time we have spent all our troops and horses in attacking Jiangdong. If we cannot win as soon as possible, it will be a disastrous defeat. No matter whether Wuchang can be defended or not, we have to try!"

"Where is Le Jin!"

Le Jin hurried out, Cao Cao picked up the bag that had been on the table and handed it to Le Jin: "After opening it at night, follow the plan, and never let the second person know."

Le Jin quickly reached out to catch it and nodded repeatedly: "No!"

Cao Cao called Li Dian and did the same thing as Yu Jin, but there was a small time difference.Everyone didn't know what was in the kit, let alone asked, but there was some inexplicable sadness in their hearts.Cao Cao conveyed his news in this way, obviously, it was not reassuring for them.The successive failures made Cao Cao suspicious of his opponents, and they were very suspicious.

It was not only Cao Cao who had doubts, but even Sun Quan who was far away in Moling began to doubt.In order to deal with Cao Cao this time, Sun Quan can be said to have put all Jiangdong's chips on Zhou Yu.Zhou Yu's tens of thousands of soldiers and horses are all Jiang Dong can produce.If Zhou Yu had any intentions, he would be powerless to deal with it, so Sun Quan sent a Lu Su to supervise him.

This time Yu Fan came from Moling, one is to mourn the Jingzhou soldiers, and the other is to see if Zhou Yu has any other plans.In the big tent of the Jiangdong Army, Yu Fan was very polite and polite to everyone.After chatting with Zhou Yu for a long time, I didn't notice anything wrong.He already knew Zhou Yu's performance these days from Lu Su's mouth, so he didn't have much doubt.

Standing up to say goodbye, Zhou Yu personally sent out of the tent.Zhou Yu naturally knew the purpose of Yu Fan, and shook his head and sighed after sending Yu Fan away, while Zhu Huan beside him said, "Governor, my lord is very kind to us, and even sent Yu Fan to work in the army, the accessories my lord gave to Da Du are really beautiful. "Zhou Yu didn't speak, just glanced at him and left with his head down.

Yu Fan left the barracks all the way under the escort of Lu Su.The two were exchanging greetings at the gate of the camp when a fast horse galloped suddenly from the left camp.In the bursts of dust-filled air, the two choked and coughed again and again.Before the horse came to a complete stop, Huang Gai jumped off the horse as soon as he raised his leg.Lu Su groaned inwardly that something was wrong, and was about to speak when Huang Gai suddenly drew out his sword with a clang.

"Yu Fan, I have something to tell you. It's just you and me. If anyone else dares to take a step closer, I'll cut him off with a single sword!" Huang Gai glared at Lu Su and a group of Jiangdong soldiers behind him viciously.

Yu Fan took two steps back.Huang Gai grabbed Yu Fan's wrist and pulled him to the nearby woods.Everyone wanted to follow, but Lu Su stretched out his arm to stop them: "Don't worry, Old General Huang won't do anything to Master Yu!"

It took a full hour before Yu Fan came out of the woods with a very strange expression on his face.Behind him, holding a sword in one hand, Huang Gai opened his clothes and strode towards his horse.Turning on his horse, he put his sword back into its sheath and cupped his hands at Yu Fan: "Master Yu, the life and death of our Jiangdong is in your hands, we must persuade the lord, and we must not raise tigers into danger!"

When Lu Su heard this, he hurriedly glanced at Yu Fan.Yu Fan nodded: "Don't worry, old general, I will definitely have a good talk with my lord."

Huang Gai clipped the horse's belly and rode away.Lu Su grabbed Yu Fan and moved aside: "What did General Huang say?"

Yu Fan looked at Lu Su, then turned to look at the galloping Huang Gai: "This! This matter is very important, I can only report to the Lord, and I hope Lu Canjun will forgive me!"

Lu Su let out a long breath, looked at Yu Fan and said, "I'll know if you don't tell me, but I would like to advise you, don't tell your lord what General Huang said before this battle is over, otherwise I, Jiangdong, will really have a hard time." danger!"

"Ah?" Yu Fan was in a dilemma: "This...!"

Lu Su said: "Is there any general in Jiangdong who can resist Cao Cao? Although Cheng Pu and Huang Gai are also generals, they are also veterans of my Jiangdong, but they have no wisdom. Neither you nor I, a scholar, have the ability to charge forward. If this matter Leaked, the lord does not know what he will do in his rage, please think again, Mr. Yu!"

Yu Fan stopped talking, and the expression on his face was extraordinarily serious.Now he feels that he is holding a hot potato in his hand, he can't hold it and he can't let it go, he is in a dilemma.Yu Fan nodded: "I've written down what Lu said about joining the army, and the lower officials will handle it as appropriate, so I'll leave!"

It was hundreds of miles from Sanjiangkou to Moling, and Yu Fan had something on his mind, so the carriage walked back slowly.At the foot of Moling City, Yu Fan didn't even think about how to deal with it as before.This matter was going around in my mind, as soon as I closed my eyes, there would be Huang Gai and Lu Su, one on the left and the other on the right, arguing and chattering endlessly, and they couldn't even sleep peacefully.

Sun Quan personally met Yu Fan in the study.Just as Yu Fan entered the door, Sun Quan stood up suddenly: "How is it? Is there any movement in the Sanjiangkou barracks?"
