When Cao Shuang's carriage arrived, Cao Liang went down to the city to greet him personally.

After Cao Shuang saw Cao Liang, he said with emotion: "Ziming, you saved a certain life again!" ”

Cao Liang said politely: "The general praised it falsely, and it is the honor of the last general to share the worries and solve problems for the general." ”

Xiahou Xuan said with a smile: "Ziming won the Golden Siege this time, not only to solve the general, but also to save the lives of tens of thousands of generals in our army, all of which are the merits of the factor. ”

"Of course, when I return to Luoyang, I will be rewarded." Cao Shuang is full of promises.

When he arrived at Jinjinwei, he was naturally out of danger, Cao Shuang's mood also became extremely refreshing, the mood was good, and the spirit of the person was good, Cao Shuang was now radiant, not like he had lost a battle, but like a triumphant return.

Cao Liang secretly smiled bitterly, Cao Shuang is really wide-hearted and fat, the Wei army has been defeated so badly, it is rare for him to still have such a good mood.

But for Cao Shuang, this is a desperate situation, originally he himself has lost confidence, completely desperate, if he is buried in the boom, then Cao Shuang is a real tragedy, it has not been long since he became a general, a lot of glory and wealth have not had time to enjoy, just died in a foreign land, how can he be willing.

Just when he was in despair, Cao Liang's victory over the Golden Circle was completely equivalent to giving him a ray of light again, how not to make him excited, Cao Shuang even secretly swore that he would never leave Luoyang even if he died in this life, and it was better to leave the high-risk matter of fighting a war to someone else.

Cao Shuang is naturally very happy to be able to get out of danger, as for those Wei soldiers who died, they will naturally have the mercy of the imperial court, and there will be a special person to be responsible, so Cao Shuang will not bother.

Yanghu saw Sima Zhao and Guo Huai behind Cao Shuang, with a frowning look, Yanghu immediately sneered: "Captain Cao won the Golden Wai this time, and the fight was also extremely dangerous, the most important thing is that he still has the courage to break the cauldron and face the difficulties, unlike some people, the battle has not yet been fought, they are afraid of the head and tail, and there are a lot of difficulties, but at this time, I still have to sit back and enjoy the success, and I don't know where the face is?" ”

Guo Huai's face was flushed, and it was true that he was too full of words at the beginning, and this time he let Yanghu come out and slap his face, which made Guo Huai a little embarrassed.

Sima Zhao said angrily: "What Guo Tingshi said is also true, Cao Changshi won the Golden Siege, it is just a fluke, not enough to worry about." ”

Sima Zhao was not on good terms with Cao Liang, this time Cao Liang made a great contribution, he saw it in his eyes, and he was jealous and hateful in his heart, and now Yanghu ridiculed Guo Huai, Sima Zhao immediately ridiculed each other and despised Cao Liang.

Yanghu was about to refute, but Cao Liang pulled him and smiled slightly: "It's really a fluke in the next place, but the second son was able to 'luck' pick up a life because of this, I don't know how you feel?" ”

Sima Zhao was speechless, so he had to retreat in a huff.

Cao Liang didn't pay attention to him anymore, people will humiliate themselves, and future generations will humiliate him, Sima Zhao despises Cao Liang's credit, but he is humiliating himself.

Cao Liang turned back to Cao Shuang and said: "General, this is not a place to stay for a long time, this is only a two-day journey to Xicheng, and I also ask the general to work hard to go to Xicheng as soon as possible to be safe." ”

"Okay, good," Cao Shuang said in a loud voice, "It's still Ziming who thinks about it thoroughly." ”

Cao Liang said to Xiahou Xuan again: "Brother Taichu, there is still a way to go to Xicheng, there is still a long way to go, there are many brave soldiers who have escaped from the Shu army, so we must be more careful along the way, and pay attention to protecting the general." ”

Cao Liang is not alarmist, although those guerrillas of the Shu army are not a threat to the men and horses of the Wei army, but these people are familiar with geography, if they hide somewhere and try to assassinate, they still have to be careful.

Xiahou Xuan nodded yes, said goodbye to Cao Liang, and followed Cao Shuang's car, left Jinjinwei, and headed for Xicheng.

Sima Zhao and Guo Huai also left, but they walked with shy faces, in this battle of Hanzhong, it was Cao Liang who was in the limelight, Sima Zhao was disgraced, and some couldn't raise their heads.

Although Sima Zhao's purpose is to stir up Huang Cao Shuang's expedition, now his goal has been achieved, but he always has a breath in his heart, he can't spit it out or swallow it, and he is very aggrieved.

The Wei army continued to stream through, and the endless army seemed to have no end in sight.

The Golden Siege also seems to have become a watershed of life and death, due to the frantic pursuit of the Shu army, the Wei army behind the palace suffered extremely heavy casualties, and the entire army of the whole song has the possibility of being annihilated by the Shu army, so the Wei army that passed through the Golden Siege should be said to be safe and sound, and those Wei troops who have not yet passed the Golden Siege can be said to have one foot on the ghost gate.

Yanghu was secretly a little anxious, because so far, he had not seen Xiahou Ba's figure, he stopped and asked many Wei soldiers, and they all said that Xiahou Ba was in charge of the task after the break, and his life and death were unknown.

After the break was originally the most dangerous errand, Cao Shuang did not arrange for him to come to the end of the break, but Xiahou Ba was ashamed because he did not fight well in the battle of the watershed, so he took the initiative to ask Ying to serve as the queen of the break.

In order to ensure the smooth retreat of the army, Xiahouba's task is to delay and block the pursuit of the Shu army, this task is very arduous, it can be said to be accompanied by death, the Shu army is taking advantage of the victory at the moment, it is completely red-eyed, eager to catch up with the Wei army, so he bites off a piece of meat.

Xiahou Ba fought and retreated, his subordinates were almost exhausted, and Xiahou Ba himself was injured in many places, and his blood-stained robes were stained.

The most difficult thing is that since Xiahouba retreated from the watershed, he has not closed his eyes for several days and nights, constantly breaking through, fighting, staying on the war horse for more than eight hours every day, and even eating and drinking are solved on horseback.

At this moment, Xiahou Ba was already so tired that he was sleepy and tired, so he relied on his breath to hold on, so he didn't fall off the horse.

"General, you have to hold on, there is a golden enclosure in front of you!" The lieutenant next to him cheered him up and encouraged.

Xiahou Ba reluctantly raised his head and smiled, and said, "Oh, it's almost time to reach the Golden Circle, I didn't expect that we would hold out for so long, presumably the generals have already passed the Golden Circle, right?" ”

The adjutant general said: "It's already over, General Xiahou, let's go quickly, when we get to Jinjinwei, it's safe." ”

Xiahou Ba laughed and said: "Okay, the general is safe and sound, and a certain task has been completed, although it is not a pity!" ”

The chasing soldiers of the Shu army behind him shouted and killed, and the deputy general hurriedly said: "General Xiahou, let's go, it's too late if you don't leave." ”
