Emperor Road of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 280 Drama
"My lord, my lord, move slowly, move slowly!" In the boundless night, suddenly a horse galloped like crazy.

The hair of the war horse was flying, and the beads of sweat were also flying, which showed how fast he was running, and this also showed how urgent the situation was.

Just when the war horse came in front of Liu Yu, the soldier on the horse reined in the horse, rolled off the saddle, half knelt on the ground, panting heavily.After panting for a long time, he repeated the words he had been shouting before, "My lord, please slow down."

Seeing the scout's appearance, Liu Yu knew that the situation was urgent, and thought something was going on, so he immediately asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter, what happened?"

The scouts heard the questioning voices, but they didn't open their mouths to answer. They just reached into their waists and took out a silk book and presented it to Liu Yu.At the same time, he said: "My lord, General Xiahou asked me to hand over this secret letter to you, and he said that you will understand after reading it."

Although he didn't know what happened or what Xia Houlan was going to do, Liu Yu still took the silk scroll and looked at it with a glance.But after reading it once, he couldn't help but read it again line by line.After reading it this time, a very strange expression appeared on his face, half happy and half dumbfounded.

Zhou Cang on the side had been paying attention to Liu Yu all the time, seeing that Liu Yu had a strange expression on his face after reading the silk book, he couldn't help asking immediately: "My lord, what news did you hear from Bogu? Vice expression."

Liu Yu didn't answer Zhou Cang's question, but continued to look at Zhou Cang with that expression on his face, which made Zhou Cang's scalp tingle.And just when Zhou Cang's scalp was numb, Liu Yu suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed heartily, as if he had won the battle.

But it is not an exaggeration to say that the battle was won, because the news from Xia Houlan was almost like winning the war.No, it is better than winning the war to make people feel refreshed, and winning the war may not necessarily save Shang Cai.And this news is simply saying that Shang Cai is fine.

In fact, Liu Yu had guessed this news a long time ago, it was Zhang Xiu's surrender and rebellion.Before, Liu Yu didn't dare to put his hopes on this matter, for fear that history would be changed, and Zhang Xiu did not rebel again.If this is the case, and Liu Yu pins his hopes on this, he will definitely die a miserable death.It was for this reason that he led the army here, preferring to risk his life rather than resign himself to fate.

But just when he was ready to fight to the death, Xia Houlan suddenly sent such a news——Zhang Xiu rebelled!

This news made him dumbfounded, and he had the urge to kill someone, it was not for him to make this trip in vain.But after he couldn't laugh or cry, he was ecstatic, thinking that he could return to Yangquan immediately.But after thinking about it again, he denied the idea of ​​returning to Yangquan immediately.

Wouldn't he be too stupid if he didn't grasp such a good opportunity?

"Haha, Yuanfu, Shangcai is worry-free!" Liu Yu said emotionally to Zhou Cang after a lot of thinking and laughing up to the sky.It's impossible not to be emotional, no one would take such an exciting thing lightly.

Liu Yu was full of excitement at the moment, but Zhou Cang was not. He was full of doubts, and asked a little dumbfounded: "What's the matter, Shangcai is fine, did Bogu repel Cao Ren?"

"Haha, it's not that Bogu repelled Cao Ren, it's like this..." Liu Yu smiled triumphantly, as if he was excited that he had expected the development of the matter.Apparently, he had forgotten that he didn't believe it.

After telling Zhou Cang the matter, Zhou Cang's expression became more complicated than that of Liu Yu.Then, he also laughed with his head up to the sky, and his smile was even more exaggerated than Liu Yu's.

In fact, Liu Yu and Zhou Cang were stunned by this incident, Liu Yu was even better, and Xia Houlan and Cao Ren were stunned by it.No way, this matter is simply too speechless.

When Xiahou received the news, he got it from the envoy sent by Zhang Xiu, and he was stupid at that time.Speaking of the envoy, it was sent by Zhang Xiu overnight.If Zhang Xiu wanted to rebel again, how could he not unite with Liu Yu.At that time, it was not only Liu Yu, but also Liu Biao.In fact, Zhang Xiu was more inclined to Liu Biao, and was even afraid of conflicts between Liu Biao and Liu Yu, so he was unwilling to contact Liu Yu.But Jia Xu advised Zhang Xiu to get in touch with Liu Yu.

How could Zhang Xiu not listen to Jia Xu's words, even though he really thought it was useless to join forces with Liu Yu.

It was precisely because of this that Xia Houlan got the news so quickly.Then, he agreed without hesitation, even though he didn't know what the promise would do.By the way, he did not exceed his authority, because Liu Yu gave him arbitrary power.

After agreeing, he couldn't wait to pass the news to Liu Yu, firstly to reassure Liu Yu, secondly, because he was afraid of Liu Yu's rebellion, he really fought against Cao Ren with the widow.

When it comes to Cao Ren, I have to say that he is in a more disgusting mood than eating a fly.

When he first received the news of Zhang Xiu's rebellion, his first reaction was not to believe it, but he couldn't help it.As a result, his mood instantly turned into rage, and he kicked the person who reported the news, and at the same time shouted, "This is impossible!"

But after some yelling, he still accepted the news, carefully questioned the reporting soldiers, and got a thorough understanding of the situation.After fully understanding the situation, his complexion changed drastically, and he roared angrily: "Damn Zhang Xiu, I will kill you!"

Because Cao Cao's loss was too great this time, how could Cao Ren not be angry.Don't talk about soldiers, don't talk about generals, just a nephew, a son, and Cao Cao's favorite general Dian Wei are enough to make Cao Ren angry.

And this is not the key, the key is Cao Cao's defeat, its influence is huge.Not to mention that the little princes everywhere are starting to move again, the royalists in the court alone are enough for Cao Cao to drink a pot.Of course, there was another point that made Cao Ren very upset, that is, he was about to capture Shangcai, but he had to retreat at this time.

Yes, we must retreat, this is Cao Cao's meaning, let him retreat immediately to resist Zhang Xiu's attack.

What can Cao Ren do? He is not an ignorant person. He immediately ordered the camp to be packed and prepared to retreat overnight.In fact, this is just the manifestation of his rationality, Xia Houlan would never dare to pursue after retreating in the dark night.But Cao Ren didn't know that Xia Houlan already knew what was going on, so naturally Xia Houlan would not suspect his retreat.

In addition, he didn't even know that Liu Yu, a fierce tiger, was lurking around him. If he knew, he would never dare to retreat overnight.

Just as he didn't know, Liu Yu was already sharpening his knife, ready to slaughter his fat sheep.Perhaps Zhang Xiu didn't know that it was his alliance with Liu Yu that prompted this battle.

For Zhang Xiu, this battle was definitely worth it.Not to mention who wins and who loses, it is a good thing for Zhang Xiu just because Liu Yu prevents Cao Ren from returning to help.

　Uh, sorry, I'm drinking again, it will be later...
