Three Kingdoms New Malaysia Super League

Chapter 695
The sky is filled with flags and smoke billows.The [-] troops with stable military capacity meandered forward, immediately bringing an atmosphere of fear and panic to Shanyang County.

The people in Shanyang County, which had just been captured by Cao Jun, looked at the big banner with the word "Cao" in the distance with horrified eyes from the bottom of their hearts, and they all backed away.Many people wept and cried, as if what came before them was not an army, but a group of demons who had just woken up from hell.

"They're here again!" A villager shouted, and hurried home to pack up and salute, as if one step later, he would immediately turn into a corpse.

"Let's hide!" Another villager shouted anxiously. The impression of the fear of Xiahouyuan's tiger and leopard rider before made the villagers feel an indescribable fear of the soldier in the vermilion battle robe.

However, at this moment, Cao Jun had already dispatched a scout, rushed to the villagers and shouted: "Master Sikong has an order, and he wants to visit a private house. I wonder which old man will welcome him?"

When everyone heard the words, they looked at each other in panic, feeling a little unbelievable.Although this request was meant to be sympathetic to the people, but everyone dared not contact someone like Cao Cao who held the power of life and death.I am afraid that if I am not careful, I will say the wrong thing and hurt everyone.

But the scout waited for a while, and found that everyone was silent, he couldn't help feeling a little anxious, and shouted again: "If no one greets you, Lord Sikong will blame you, don't blame me for not being able to protect you!"

At this time, an old man stepped forward, bowed and said, "Come to the little old man's house. The little old man has no children or daughters, and he has nothing to worry about... If you neighbors can trust the little old man, let the little old man From generation to generation, all high neighbors welcome Lord Sikong."

When everyone heard the words, they all thanked the old man for coming forward.But the scout got the letter, and without saying a word, he drove back and returned to his command.

When Cao Cao entered the house, his brows were frowned, not because of other reasons, but the old man's house was too shabby and miserable: the old man lived in a low thatched hut, and after entering, the light was so dim that no one could be seen on the opposite side. .The wind was a little stronger, and the whole house seemed to be shaking, and grass clippings and dust fell down.The old man was over 50 years old. Apart from the six children who died young, five sons survived.But three of them died in the bandits' looting, and were abducted by someone for an hour. The remaining one was captured by the Quexuan rebels.At this time, I don't even know whether I am dead or alive.

A few years ago, my wife died of grief and premature death.The old man was left alone, barely surviving on the assistance of the villagers and a few acres of Susukida, without even a complete piece of clothing.

At this time, the old man lit a fire, borrowed some corn from the neighbor, cooked a pot of porridge, brought it to Cao Cao, and said, "Master Sikong, please don't mind, there is nothing good in the countryside..."

Cao Cao looked at the bowl with a few holes in front of him, and saw that the corn inside hadn't even been peeled off, and there were a lot of weeds and tree roots... This kind of food is not even what the army's war horses eat. Better than better!As a result, Cao Cao couldn't help frowning even tighter.However, after seeing the trembling look of the old man, he relaxed his tone and said: "Don't panic, old man. Cao is just tired from marching, so he rests here."

Hearing this, the old man was a little relieved.But looking at the powerful and brave posture of the two burly and sturdy generals beside Cao Cao, he couldn't help but took two steps back.When Cao Cao saw this, he turned around and said, "Xu Chu, Dian Wei, you two step down!"

The two were waiting to obey, but at this moment, a strong wind hit.The beams on the old man's low thatched hut have been decayed for a long time, and they are already unbearable.After two squeaks, it actually broke!The wooden thorn at the break was smashing head-on at where Cao Cao was!

"My lord, be careful!..." Seeing this, the other guards shouted.

But Cao Cao was unmoved at all.With Xu Chu and Dian Wei at his side, he knew that his life was not in danger.Sure enough, after a burst of thatch and mud fell, Cao Cao was only a little embarrassed, without a trace of scars.And the broken beam on his head was being grabbed by a big hand.Dian Wei's majestic body bowed and covered Cao Cao, so that Cao Cao was not injured at all.But Xu Chu was even more knowledgeable. He immediately rushed to the side of the earth wall at the headwind, and smashed the adobe wall with his body, so that the earth wall did not fall to Cao Cao's side along the wind direction.

"My lord..." Seeing this, the old man was so frightened that his soul died.Hastily knelt down in front of Cao Cao, kowtowed like pounding garlic and begged, "My lord, please spare me, please spare me!"

"It's nothing, it's more open and bright. It's just that this hut has been in disrepair for a long time, and Cao has violated an old saying!" Cao Cao laughed loudly, not at all frightened by the collapse of the hut.Standing up to help the old man, he continued to speak: "A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, but the world is full of dangerous walls, where should the people of the world stand?!"

The old man couldn't understand what Cao Cao meant, but he knew that he had escaped a catastrophe.However, Cao Cao, who was far-sighted and far-sighted, could see the situation of Xuzhou and even the world only from the experience of the old man: Although there was no war in Xuzhou, people in troubled times did not have a place of peace.Since Tao Qian took office as the governor of the state, he has experienced governance several times. Although there has been improvement, his decadent thinking cannot solve some deep-seated contradictions, such contradictions as the gap between the rich and the poor, and uneven distribution.A powerful man can sometimes occupy thousands of fertile fields, but a poor family has no place to stand.This is a fact that no one can change in this era.But only, I heard that the Ma family in Yongzhou...

Thinking of this, Cao Cao couldn't help but look a little ugly.But after thinking about it for a while, he immediately returned to his eyes, turned around and said, "Come here, repair the old man's hut! Tell the food officer to leave some food for the old man."

"My lord, there is no need to keep it. If the little old man left food, he might attract bandits to rob him. Although the little old man didn't want to live a long time ago, he didn't want to implicate all the villagers..." Hearing this, the old man's eyes showed nothing Surprised and moved, he said numbly: "If your lord is really caring, please ask the general to make this hut stronger, so that it will be good for those homeless people to shelter from wind and rain in the future."

After Cao Cao heard what the old man said, he was obviously taken aback.I want to applaud the old man for being alone and carefree, but I can hear the helplessness and despair in the old man's words, and I don't know how to comfort him.After pondering for a while, he opened his mouth and said, "Have you heard that, according to what the old man said, repair this house to make it stronger. After the repairs are completed and Mr. Cao inspects it, the army will move on again!"

When Cao Cao gave an order, his own soldiers cut down trees and mud, and Xu Chu and Dian Wei even carried a freshly felled beam and started repairing it.Cao Cao watched from the side, and murmured: "Xuzhou is like an old man's house. Although it looks acceptable on the outside, the inside is riddled with holes and rotten. Hmph, the gold and jade outside are ruined, which is very suitable for Tao Gongzu." man!"

"My lord!" Cheng Yu stepped forward at this time, seeing that Cao Jun was actually doing these miscellaneous things, he couldn't help but said, "Since you have already agreed to Cheng's poisonous plan, why are you doing such useless things now?"

"Cao saw the disaster in Xuzhou, so he naturally agreed with your poisonous scheme of 'slaughter one city and demolish ten cities'. But Cao is also a person who cares about the country, so naturally he can't ignore what happened to the old man! The two seem to be contradictory, but But I can’t talk to my colleagues!” Cao Cao said, a complicated light flashed in his eyes, as if the whole person was in a kind of contradiction and confusion.

And Cheng Yu looked at Cao Cao's firm face, and was suddenly touched by Cao Cao's domineering, and had nothing to say.After stroking his long beard, he opened his mouth and said, "Did Ming Gong think about how to fight Tao Qian's main force?"

"Tao Gongzu is a whimsical man, he can be defeated in a single battle!" Cao Cao didn't take Tao Qian seriously at all, and after saying this, he said coldly, "After Tao Qian is determined to win or lose in a battle, then you will start your dark righteousness. At that time, people in Xuzhou will be in a state of panic, and it is also heard that Cao has completely slaughtered the city, so the whole of Xuzhou will be in Cao's pocket in just ten months!"

After that, Cao Cao turned his head and added in a low voice: "Only at that time, Cao will be qualified to fight Yuan Shao and Ma Chao!!..."
