Chapter 63: Ning Rong Arrives and Greets Him
The third day of April! On the territory of Fan County! Falling Wind Slope!
The clouds covered the sky, the wind swept the ground, and tens of thousands of wounded soldiers were stationed on the windy slope, groaning, painful, whispering, a mournful and dilapidated image, and the army guarded a big black tent in the center.
The black tent was full of generals, and they all looked worriedly at the bed due north.
On the bed sat Cao Cao, who was dressed in a red robe, with a pale face and a constant cough, and the guards on the side served carefully, cutting off a bowl of hot soup and putting it in front of him.
The sad news came, Bao Xin did not escape the persecution of the Yellow Turban thieves in the war after all, Cao Cao cried with tears in his eyes, and offered a heavy reward for Bao Xin's body, and he wanted to bury Bao Xin.
However, with the passage of time, that battlefield has long been turned over by Cao Cao and others, and the body of Bao Xin has never been found, so in desperation, he had to carve a wooden statue of Bao Xin with old wood, and Cao Cao melted the golden crown to smear the whole body, and buried it with a golden statue!
The failure of the attack, the death of his friend, and the repeated blows, Cao Cao's whole person was a lot haggard.
Cao Cao has been sitting silently on the bed since he buried Bao Xin, not speaking, not eating or drinking, and the oppressive atmosphere in the big tent is breathless.
"Rustle...... Rustle......"
The hurried pace and panicked voice made Xiahou Yuan frown, it was really something that didn't know whether to live or die!
"Newspaper~~"
The guard knelt on one knee and raised his voice,
Cao Cao glanced at the guard expressionlessly, and said in a low voice, "Tell me!" ”
"Lord Qiyu, Captain Cao Hong, Military Advisor Guo Jia, engaged in Ning Rong to sign up for the camp!"
Well?
Cao Cao blinked, he was stunned for a moment, and the generals also looked at the guards and were stunned for a moment, they have been fighting back and forth these days, but they have forgotten this rear army.
"Hahaha...... Fengxiao, Zhiyuan is coming? The time limit for the Yellow Turban Thieves has arrived! Cao Cao stood up on the bed suddenly, laughed wildly with tears in his eyes, and hurried out of the tent.
"Lord, are you not wearing shoes?" Xiahou Yuan shouted from behind, and chased Cao Cao out with Cao Cao's shoes.
"Bonghyo ~~"
"Zhiyuan~~Zhiyuan~~"
Cao Cao shouted as he walked, his dark face was stained with tears, and his two eyes were constantly searching.
The soldiers in the barracks all stared incredulously, looking at Cao Cao, who was disheveled and unworn, what was so urgent?
…………
…………
Ning Rong, Guo Jia and Cao Hong learned that Cao Cao actually led the army to attack the Yellow Turban, for fear that Cao Cao would lose, so they rushed to Fan County non-stop, but when they arrived in Fan County, they knew that Cao Cao had set off a few days ago.
At that time, Ning Rong, Guo Jia and Cao Hong decided to lead the army to help, but ...... Taking out the marching map and looking at the distance from Shouzhang to Fan County, Ning Rong decisively gave up his plan to catch up.
It's too late!
Maybe by the time he arrived, the battle would have been over a long time ago, and by then, it would be useless whether he won or lost.
Cao Hong was so anxious that he turned around, it was obvious that Ning Rong was not optimistic about the lord's attack on the Yellow Turban, if he was really defeated, wouldn't it be dangerous!
In the end, there was no choice but to make two preparations, and after discussing with Guo Jia, Ning Rong decided to bypass Liangshan, surprise the troops, and march into Dongping County.
Dongping County is north of Shouzhang, the terrain is flat, if the Yellow Turban Thief is defeated, he and others can beat the water dog, if Cao Cao is defeated, he and others can cut off the back road of the Yellow Turban Thief, attack it must be saved, and reduce the pressure on Cao Cao.
Walking to the road, they met Cao Cao's deserters one after another, Ning Rong asked about the situation, Cao Hong took them under control, and it was not until he was halfway through that he heard the news that Cao Cao was defeated and fled, and the three of them immediately turned back to pursue, until they came to this downhill slope.
Guo Jia saw Cao Cao's appearance from afar, and hurriedly pulled Ning Rong over.
"Lord!" Guo Jia bowed his head and saluted, but he was stunned, looking at Cao Cao who was not wearing shoes, his eyes were slightly red, and he couldn't help but blame himself for a while, if he and others marched faster, how could he let the lord suffer the humiliation of this defeated army.
"Lord, Jia...... Guilty! ”
Guo Jia took a deep breath, his eyes were full of tears, and his voice was moving.
This is...... Greet Xu Yu's posture?
Ning Rong looked at Xiahou Yuan, who was chasing after him with his shoes, and then looked at Cao Cao's haggard appearance, and muttered to himself, everyone in the world says that Cao Cao is treacherous, but for the people he sincerely approves, he really treats them with his heart.
Ning Rong's nose was sour, and he clenched his fists and shouted: "Lord, Rong is late!" ”
Cao Cao excitedly grabbed Ning Rong and Guo Jia's hands, his eyes were full of tears, and he nodded chokedly: "Fengxiao, Zhiyuan, not guilty!" You are not guilty! It's incompetent, and it's harming the three armies~~"
The sin is mine, and it has nothing to do with the ministers!
Ning Rong was quite moved in his heart, Cao Cao is a hero and a hero, and a leader who can take the initiative to take responsibility for his subordinates will always be a good leader.
"Let's go! Walk! Feng Xiao and Zhiyuan are here, and the death of the Yellow Turban Thief has arrived! ”
Cao Cao was really happy, he didn't seem to see the shoes in Xiahou Yuan's hand, and he didn't feel the pain under his feet, and he didn't feel it at all, and pulled Guo Jia and Ning Rong one by one and went straight to the big tent.
Xiahou Yuan shook his head with a wry smile, shook the shoes on his hands, and followed behind the three of them speechlessly,
Belch?
Cao Cao walked halfway, stood abruptly, quickly turned his head and stared at Ning Rong's face, just looking at it so directly, Ning Rong was seen creepy, blinked, and pretended to be a pure little white rabbit.
"This ......"
"Zhiyuan is the only one who calls the master?" Cao Cao stared at Ning Rong's face tightly and asked eagerly.
"Huh?" Ning Rong was obviously stupid, what does this mean? The reason for this is to ask this?
Ning Rong replied suspiciously: "Yes, does the lord have any questions?" ”
Cao Cao repeatedly confirmed: "Really? ”
"It's true!" Ning Rong nodded, turned around and looked at Guo Jia in confusion, this lord won't be stupid, right? Didn't you go to him a long time ago? This reflection arc is too long!
"Hahaha...... That's great! That's great! Cao Cao got an affirmative answer, and jumped up with joy like a child.
"Although our army was defeated, we can go far and like each other today, what a blessing!"
"Hahahaha...... I have to go far like a dragon with wings, a tiger with wings, and I will be able to soar for nine days and crisscross the seas! ”
Ning Rong ignored the happy Cao Cao, couldn't help rolling his eyes, and muttered, "Gotcha!" After doing it for a long time, I still couldn't escape the fate of being wings, but fortunately it wasn't chicken wings, and it was braised by someone! ”
"Huh? Ha ha! Zhiyuan is funny, funny, chatting with you is like drinking elixir and jade liquid, which is refreshing! ”
Ning Rong said with uneasy concern: "Your lord...... You okay? ”
Cao Cao was stupid and didn't understand: "I...... I am fine! ”
"That's good! That's good! ”
Ning Rong touched his nose and nodded, it seemed that his head was not caught by the door.
