This is a saber with a more solemn style, and the black scabbard reveals a sense of calmness and grandeur.
Clang!
He drew his sword out of its sheath and let out a crisp sword cry.
The sword is about four feet long, with a sharp edge, and two small seal characters are engraved on the body of the sword.Little Lingdang reads few books, so her knowledge is naturally the same. Fortunately, she can still recognize the word '天' below.
"Brother, tell me honestly, where did you get this sword?"
With the sword back in its sheath, Little Bell imitated his master's serious face and seriously questioned his younger brother.
After all, Lu Xiao used to steal things a lot when he was young.
"The little eye with the beard was knocked away by me, and his sword fell to the ground. I looked good, so I wanted to give it to Sister."
Like an obedient baby, Lu Xiao confessed the truth.
"Sister, do you like it?"
"Yes, I like it."
"Hee~hee~"
"Don't giggle!"
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
Heshan, Cao Jun camp.
Cao Cao, who escaped from the deadly battle, returned with a group of defeated soldiers. The soldiers drooped their heads, all of them were ashamed.
"My lord, are you alright?"
Xun You, who was pacing back and forth outside the gate of the camp, came up to greet him quickly, with a worried expression on his face.
"It's okay, it's okay, Gongda, you let the evil come to save me in time, otherwise, you might not see me!" Cao Cao waved his hand, joking.
As long as he doesn't die, no one can destroy his ambition of Cao Mengde.
Back at the commander's tent, Cao Cao removed his armor and put on clean clothes. Then he ordered someone to call Xun You and asked, "Gongda, have the other generals returned?"
In the last night's battle, Cao Cao mistakenly fell into an ambush by Lu's army, almost all of the three thousand elite cavalry were wiped out, and less than one out of ten escaped.Cao Cao spent a lot of money to cultivate these elite cavalry. They wanted to use them as secret weapons on the battlefield in the future, but they fell apart completely overnight.
It was my carelessness, and I underestimated the enemy too much!
Cao Cao blamed himself especially in his heart, and at the same time he learned a lot.
"My lord, Xia Hou, Le Jin, Yu Jin and other generals have all returned one after another. Only General Cao Hong is left, and no soldiers have come to report for a long time."
As soon as Xun You's words fell, a loud voice sounded from outside.
report~
Hearing this pass, Cao Cao showed a knowing smile on his face, and laughed loudly: "Hahaha, Zilian must be back!"
When the soldiers were recruited into the tent, Cao Cao asked, "What's the matter?"
The soldier replied, "General Cao Hong is back."
Sure enough, as expected.
Cao Cao looked at Xun You with a smug expression on his face, "Gongda, am I right?"
Without waiting for Xun You's answer, the soldier added: "My lord, how should the remains of General Cao Hong be placed?"
The smile on his face froze in an instant, and Cao Cao, who was still smiling a moment ago, turned his head in disbelief, staring at the messenger soldier, and said every word with his teeth slowly: "You! Say! What! What! "
The soldiers were terrified by Cao Cao's expression, knocked their heads on the ground, and replied tremblingly: "Just now the enemy sent someone to bring General Cao Hong's body, but General Ren Jun didn't know how to arrange it, so he sent a villain to report to you. .”
The soldiers did not hear Cao Cao's reply, only heard hurried footsteps passing by, and when he raised his head cautiously, Cao Cao had already rushed out of the camp.
Cao Hong's body was transported into the village from the gate, and the generals and soldiers of Cao Ying bowed their heads in silence for the general of the Cao family.
Zilian, Zilian...
Cao Cao yelled loudly, stumbling over, and the soldiers gathered here consciously made way for the lord.
Lying on a stretcher in the middle of the crowd, covered by a white plain cloth, the face of the corpse could not be seen.
Cao Cao squatted down, and slowly opened it with trembling hands.
Under the plain cloth, Cao Hongwei closed his eyes, his face was very serene, completely different from the image of the violent general in the past.The battle armor worn on his body was broken, with countless knife marks engraved on it, and many arrow wounds. He should have been shot and killed by random arrows when he broke through the encirclement.
"Zi Lian, Zi Lian, wake up, wake up! I am clan brother Meng De, open your eyes quickly, I order you as the lord, open your eyes and look at me! Open your eyes! !"
Cao Cao cried out in pain, tears rolling down his face.
If it wasn't for covering himself and retreating, Cao Hong wouldn't have died!
Cao Cao was distraught.
Xun You who followed didn't have much sadness. War is like this, and no one knows when he will die suddenly.
He found Ren Jun who was patrolling the camp in the morning, and asked in a low voice, "Did the enemy say anything when they sent General Cao Hong back?"
Ren Jun thought for a while and replied: "He said that General Cao Hong is a true warrior and will always be respected, so he sent the body back to Cao Ying."
"Oh, by the way, the enemy general asked me to tell the military adviser that you have won this time." Ren Jun suddenly remembered, and added another sentence.
There was a ray of anger on Xun You's face. After Cao Jun suffered such a big loss, the other party claimed that he had won by himself, which was clearly humiliating himself.
report~
At this time, the loud and long emergency call sounded again, all the way from the gate of the camp to here.The soldiers who came to report looked anxious, and the two soldiers who followed were holding a square wooden box in each hand.
Cao Cao, who was in grief, had no time to take care of it, so Xun You asked instead, "What happened?"
The soldier knelt down, clasped his fists and said: "Back to the military division, more than ten cavalry soldiers came from outside the camp just now. They said that they were ordered by the Great Sima to come here to give the Lord a gift. Be sure to ask the Lord to open it himself."
"Bring it!"
Cao Cao snorted, he wants to see what kind of medicine is sold in Lu Bu's gourd!
"My lord, beware of fraud!"
Xun You and all the generals reminded loudly.
Cao Cao turned a deaf ear to him and had known him for many years. He thought he knew Lu Bu better than anyone else.In Cao Cao's eyes, Lu Bu is the kind of person who likes to win by strength and disdains to use small tricks. He is very similar to the overlord of Western Chu back then.
