late han empire

Chapter 120 The end of the hero

Sun Quan's navy was wiped out. For this guy who is not used to naval warfare, bullying him is really not technical at all.

His tactics are largely biased towards water battles in inland lakes. In fact, it is also because most of his navy generals were once water thieves in the south of the Yangtze River.

If fighting in places like the Yangtze River or Dongting Lake, relying on the relatively narrow environment, Sun Quan's water army will restrict the movement of the enemy with walking boats.

It's just that in the wide sea, the large roundabout of the ship can easily bypass those walking boats.At that time, as long as you take the opportunity to destroy the large ships and medium-sized warships, the remaining walking ships will not be able to turn over any troubles.

Not to mention, most of the warships under Sun Quan's command are traditional warships, and there has been no progress in imitating Liu Ming's warships.The gap in shipbuilding technology between the two sides was so great that even though Sun Quan had spent all his energy to catch up, he still couldn't easily catch up.

As a result, using that kind of backward ship that is not suitable for turning around on the sea to engage in a naval battle with a real sea ship is a pure death.

Gan Ning briefly resupplied in Yazhou, and then led the fleet to kill Wujun.At the same time, Ma Chao and Ma Dai ended their guerrilla career and returned to Liu Ming.

The tactics of Ma Chao and Ma Dai have been used by Lu Xun. In recent battles, there is almost no way to win under Lu Xun's calculations.Of course, it is not considered a failure. It can only be said that relying on the combat effectiveness of the two and the resentment of the soldiers towards Sun Quan's soldiers, they barely drew a tie with Lu Xun.

But this is obviously not the casualty rate Liu Ming needs, so the two of them can only return to the rear.As soon as they came back, Guan Hai, Gao Lan, and Cao Xing entered the territory under Sun Quan as the second batch of guerrilla troops.

Perhaps because of the change in fighting methods, Lu Xun couldn't help but suffer a bit when he first came into contact with them.However, Lu Xun is Lu Xun after all, and the loss of failure is minimized.At the same time, he also understood that his enemies had changed again, so he had to start anew.

During this period of time, compared to Sun Quan's desperation, Cao Cao can only be said to be extremely depressed.

Liu Ming's guerrilla troops and the main force of the guard did not intend to punish him to death.But also because of this, this kind of war mode that does not take the initiative to attack but sticks to it, does not deliberately attack the vital points, but always comes out to gain a sense of presence, people will feel very uncomfortable.

"Have you found out what the origin of that army is?" Cao Cao looked at Xun Chen very dissatisfied.

"It's not from Liu Ming's side. Liu Ming is a good son-in-law. Time has proved everything. But this group of people always cleverly attack our vital points at our most critical moments. Up to now, more granaries have been killed. The food on the front line is in short supply..." Xun Chen wiped the sweat from his brow.

"I'm not interested in knowing how much we lost. What I need to know now is what the origin of this army is!" Cao Cao stopped Xun Chen from speaking.

"Since it's not Liu Ming, then only Sun Quan and Liu Bei." Xun Chen smiled wryly, he had hinted at this before.

How did he know that Cao Cao had actually thought of this, and even thought that this army came from Liu Bei's command.It's just that he needs someone to prove his idea.

"That guy Liu Bei, doesn't he know he's playing with fire?" Cao Cao was very puzzled.

"According to the latest information we have received, Chengdu has been taken down by Liu Ming. It's just that it's empty there, but I don't know where Liu Bei moved the people. Now Liu Bei's territory is only Nanzhong and Jiaozhou. In this place, signs of defeat have appeared." Xun You stepped forward to report.

"So you want to drag us to die together?" Cao Cao asked through gritted teeth.

"But it's unlikely. Pang Tong's layout is not that simple. Besides, Liu Bei also has a mastermind named Xu Shu, who is not much less talented than Pang Tong." Xun You immediately denied that statement.

"Forget it, let's not mention that guy. What I need to know now is, how do we deal with those guys who always make trouble for us?" Cao Cao simply got to the point.

If they don't deal with it, they will have to retreat, and the soldiers on the front line have already started to run out of food.

"Since Liu Bei can't count on the three alliances of Cao, Sun and Liu, why doesn't he want to ask Sun Quan for help? Anyway, it shouldn't be too difficult to get some supplies." Liu Ye made an opinion.

"Well, it's the same thing, and we need to arrange people to ask for help immediately. But during the time when the things are shipped back, how should we deal with the problem of food and grass?" Cao Cao nodded, and then asked again.

"Most of the large households in the territory have food and grass reserves, and we may buy some emergency supplies from them," Xun Chen remonstrated.

"It's okay to buy, but where does the money come from?" Cao Cao was also very depressed.

"You can get a loan from Huaxia Bank. Didn't they claim that they are a neutral bank for thousands of years? As long as we give us collateral, it shouldn't be a problem to get a certain loan from them." Liu Ye came out.

"It's also a way... I didn't expect that in the end, we would actually borrow money from our enemy." Cao Cao said with a bit of self-deprecation.

"Report!" But at this time, a soldier came to report in a hurry.

"What's wrong?" Cao Cao asked angrily.

"Suddenly an army came outside the city and has surrounded Changsha!" the soldier said in a hurry.

"What is the origin?!" Cao Cao stood up abruptly.

"From the banner armor, it can be seen that it is Liu Bei!" The soldier quickly replied.

"Damn it, the enemy appeared here so openly, is it possible that our scouts are all dead?!" Cao Cao was really angry, and no one reported such a big event.

"It's true that the sentries in various places haven't reported for nearly a day. Maybe the sentry has really died!" Xiahou Dun recalled it carefully, and then gave his own opinion.

According to Cao Jun's mechanism, sentries in various places change their guards every day.Therefore, if the soldiers who have not changed their shift for more than one day return, the army will immediately go out to guard.

It's just that Liu Bei calculated the time of the day, so he rushed to the city of Changsha in the shortest time and surrounded it.

Cao Cao also knew the mechanism of his army.Just because I knew it, I couldn't help feeling: It is said that soldiers are impermanent, and a system that is too rigid is really easy to be exploited.

But what's the use of complaining now?In desperation, Cao Cao had no choice but to lead the crowd to the top of the wall.

"Liu Bei, what do you mean by that?!" Cao Cao looked at the army below and cursed angrily.

"Old Cao, it's all right for you to give up your territory, but you came to my territory. Look at the four counties in Jingnan, shouldn't they be my territory? No, I just put what was originally my territory. Just take back my things. I have to thank Liu Ming, he can do me a big favor!" Liu Bei said without blushing.

"Liu Bei, is this your purpose?" Cao Cao realized a certain possibility.

"Yes, with my desolate land of Bashu and Jingbei with a crippled opinion, it is very difficult to unilaterally resist Liu Ming. But it is not my own territory to ally with you. I can't believe it. Therefore, Why can't you take advantage of Liu Ming's military power and take the opportunity to absorb the two territories under your own name?" Liu Bei didn't shy away, and directly stated his purpose.

I have to say, this is indeed very ruthless.

The original intention of the three alliances is to jointly resist the mighty Liu Ming.This was originally proposed by Liu Bei, and the two agreed after considering the pros and cons.Everyone knows that it is unwise to unilaterally resist Liu Ming's attack under the current situation where Liu Ming is sitting at the top.

When the war broke out, I am afraid that I and Sun Quan really worked hard to deal with Liu Ming.However, Liu Bei fought Liu Ming very perfunctorily. If not many people were killed and many generals were captured, Cao Cao and Sun Quan might really question Liu Bei's intentions.

Even so, Liu Bei still used this alliance to weaken his protracted war ability to the greatest extent.Even if he wants to call up soldiers at this stage, the lack of food and grass is enough to break the morale of the army.

"Old Cao, we have met each other anyway. Don't worry, I will let you leave this world without pain." Liu Bei smiled, and then waved his hand.

This was an order to attack, and at almost the same time, Liu Bei's soldiers began to attack the couch.The more than 50 cannons pulled by Yunnan horses in the rear fired shells towards the city gate and the city wall.

"Let's fight!" Cao Cao would not be caught without a fight, but he would immediately fire at the artillery on the city wall.

"Report to the Prime Minister, His Majesty was assassinated and died!" But at this critical moment, a soldier hurried forward to report.

At that moment, Cao Cao's thinking became blank.

"What's going on, tell me quickly!" Seeing this, Xun You ordered immediately.

"Just a quarter of an hour ago, a court lady passed by His Majesty's bedroom, intending to ask His Majesty to get up for dinner, but she didn't want to see His Majesty lying on the bed, but her decapitated body was already in a different place!" The soldier reported crying.

"This..." Xun You was shocked first, and then he realized something.

It's Liu Bei!Only he would be the first to assassinate Emperor Han when he attacked Changsha.Only in this way, after eating Cao Cao's territory, will he not feel depressed about the hot potato of Emperor Han.

Looking at Cao Cao again, he still hasn't recovered from the blow at this moment.Xun You knew that there was still a little bit of loyalty in this hero's heart.He is a Hanchen, a Hanchen who wishes to assist His Majesty to rejuvenate the great Han.This is the last attachment in Cao Cao's heart. This attachment will bind him, even if he dies, he will not usurp the throne.

This is indeed the case with him in another time and space. He did not usurp the throne until his death, but only became the king of Wei.He needs a prince to satisfy his last vanity.As for usurping the throne, leave it to future generations.In fact, Cao Pi usurped the throne after his death.

Because of this persistence, Cao Cao really couldn't accept this fact at this moment.His majesty, who had been closely guarded, even mobilized the most elite soldiers to protect him, was assassinated! ?

I just thought about this question, but I didn't want my chest to hurt, and my eyes slowly moved down.

But he saw that soldier had come in front of him.In his hand, holds a dagger.

"You..." Cao Cao looked at the soldier weakly.

"Let's go!" The soldier pulled out his dagger, and then quickly hid and fled.

Yes, he is a disciple of the Natural Sect, and everything he did before was just a plan to assassinate Cao Cao.It's ironic to say that the anti-assassination treaty was only signed some time ago, but now they are playing with it again.

That guy Liu Bei really explained perfectly the phrase 'the existence of the treaty is to be benefited'.

"Meng De, Meng De!" Xiahou Dun stepped forward immediately, but Cao Cao's eyes were dimmed.

"Yuan Rang...North..." Cao Cao looked at Xiahou Dun with dull eyes, and said three words with difficulty.

Then, all consciousness finally slackened and disappeared, and the hand that was going to be stretched out also dropped down.

"Meng De!!!" Xiahou Dun raised his head to the sky and screamed.
