353 heroes died
In the palace in Jinyang City, Cao Cao, his wife, and children were all huddled in a room, and through the cracks in the windows, he could clearly see the situation outside.
The Han army surrounded the water here, and Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Tai Shici, Gao Shun, LΓΌ Meng and others were all eyeing there.
The house was filled with the cries of women and babies because of fear, and the people were disturbed.
Suddenly, Cao Cao turned his face and looked at his wife and children, full of guilt.
"We are already surrounded by enemy legions, and the reason why they are not attacking is probably because they are thinking about who should go with my head! Today, I will surely die, you are all my family, and after I die, the enemy will not treat you well, so instead of leaving you in the world to suffer the destruction and torment of the enemy, it is better for me to kill you all first, so that you will not suffer. β
As soon as these words came out, the whole family was stunned, the women did not dare to talk back, just sat there and wept, and some of the younger children cried loudly.
"Cry what cry!" Suddenly, a teenager about thirteen years old walked out of the crowd and said sharply.
This young man is none other than Cao Cao's current eldest son, Cao Pi. Although he is only thirteen years old, he has already married a wife, and his wife is Wang Ling's sister, who is only twelve years old, and they are still children.
Originally, Cao Cao had an eldest son named Cao Ang, but he was killed by Zhang Yan in the year of his expedition to Xuzhou, so Cao Cao hated Zhang Yan to the core.
Cao Pi's roar shocked everyone in the room, and they saw Cao Pi walking to Cao Cao's side. Suddenly pulled out the long sword that Cao Cao was wearing at his waist. Directly on his neck. said to Cao Cao: "Father, the child has taken the first step." β
After speaking, Cao Pi killed himself.
Cao Cao frowned, seeing that Cao Pi was so bold at a young age, he couldn't help but be stunned, feeling that if this son did not die, he would definitely do something in the future.
It's a pity that Cao Cao has reached the end of his crossbow. is even more surrounded by people, and I am afraid that there will be no day to turn over in this life and this life.
"Father, I am also willing to go to Huangquan with my father!" Cao Zhang, who was only ten years old, picked up the bloody sword from the corpse of his brother Cao Pi after saying this, and also killed himself.
Cao Pi and Cao Zhang killed themselves one after another, which shocked the rest of the people, but after that, whether it was Cao Cao's wife, or Cao Cao's son, daughter, and daughter-in-law. They were all panicked and frightened. They all knelt on the ground and begged Cao Cao for mercy.
When Cao Cao saw such a scene, he just sighed softly, picked up the long sword from the ground, and said to the family members in front of him: "It's not that I want to kill you, it's really that you don't die, you will be tortured, I really don't want to see the enemy destroy you, don't blame me for being ruthless, I'm all for your good." After I kill you, I will kill myself again, and our whole family will be reunited under the Yellow Spring. β
After speaking, Cao Cao carried a long sword and slaughtered indiscriminately in the house, and for a while, the screams in the house continued, and the screams were endless.
Tai Shici, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Gao Shun, Lu Meng and others, who were outside the house, heard the screams coming from inside the house, and they didn't know what was happening, everyone exchanged a look with each other, and they all rushed forward.
Gao Shun ran the fastest, raised his leg and kicked open the door, and saw a bloody scene in the house, Cao Cao was carrying a bloody long sword, chasing his wife and children, killing one with a sword, stabbing all the vital parts, and striving to kill with a sword.
All the people who rushed over were stunned, Cao Cao seemed to be crazy, and he didn't even let go of the baby who had just completed the moon.
When Cao Cao killed one of his own children, he glanced at the shocked Han generals outside the door, and suddenly hahadaxiao said: "Don't you want my head?" I'll give it to you! β
As soon as the words fell, he saw Cao Cao tear off the bloody clothes on his body, revealing the thunderbolt fire thunder tied all over his body, and the other hand didn't know where to get a fire fold, which directly ignited the thunderbolt on his body.
Seeing this, Tai Shici, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Gao Shun, Lu Meng and others immediately made a frightened appearance and shouted one after another: "Retreat!" Hurry back! β
The group quickly withdrew from the house, and at this moment, there was a loud "boom" in the house, and the thunderbolt exploded, and Cao Cao's whole person was blown apart, and blood was splashed everywhere in the house!
The impact of the explosion knocked Tai Shici, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Gao Shun, Lu Meng and others to the ground, which shows how powerful the thunderbolt and thunder tied to Cao Cao's body were.
Tai Shici, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Gao Shun, Lu Meng and others got up from the ground one after another, and after a moment of silence, suddenly everyone rushed into the house together and began to fight for Cao Cao's broken limbs.
After a while, Tai Shici, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Gao Shun, Lu Meng and others walked out one after another, each carrying a huge harvest in their hands, Tai Shici and Zhang Liao respectively picked up Cao Cao's legs, Xu Huang and Gao Shun picked up Cao Cao's two arms, and Lu Meng picked up Cao Cao's head.
The biggest harvest is Lu Meng, Lu Meng is the happiest at this time, but as everyone knows, this is the generals who deliberately let him be a young man.
When it was almost noon, the battle in Jinyang City was basically over, but near the south gate, Xu Chu and Dian Wei were still fighting fiercely.
Tai Shici, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Gao Shun, Lu Meng and others came to the south gate one after another, ready to ask Zhang Yan for credit, and when they saw Xu Chu and Dian Wei fighting, everyone watched and cheered for Xu Chu on the side.
At this time, Dian Wei noticed that Lu Meng was carrying Cao Cao's head in his hand, and his face suddenly showed a look of surprise, and he immediately let out a hysterical roar: "Lord-"
At the same time, Dian Wei struggled to throw the two big iron halberds in his hand towards Lu Meng, who was holding Cao Cao's head.
Lu Meng was on the rise, and he didn't notice this at all, if it wasn't for Gao Shun shouting "be careful", he wouldn't have realized his danger.
However, if you want to avoid it, you are not in a hurry, the big iron halberd flew towards Lu Meng quickly, and it was already about to reach the front.
"Get out of the way!" Gao Shun was on Lu Meng's side, seeing that Lu Meng was stunned there, he hurriedly hit Lu Meng with his body, Lu Meng's body twisted, and he fell to the side, and the big iron halberd flew over with a "whoosh" from his ear, and if he was one step too late, he was afraid that his life would be gone.
However, Lu Meng dodged one, but there was also a big iron halberd flying, and the second big iron halberd seemed to know that Lu Meng was going to dodge, and flew directly towards his chest.
Lu Meng was terrified for a while, and secretly thought: "It's over, it's over, it's really over now......"
Just between the lightning and the fire, the three weapons were killed at the same time, directly in front of Lu Meng, Tai Shi Ci held a halberd, Zhang Liao held a spear, Xu Huang held a big axe, and the three generals came to rescue Lu Meng, and they were stunned to block Dian Wei's big iron halberd, which allowed Lu Meng to escape by luck.
At the same time, Xu Chu's knife suddenly slashed Dian Wei's shoulder, and the entire blade was stuck in Dian Wei's body, Dian Wei didn't scream, just stared at Lu Meng and the others with vicious eyes.
Xu Chu was surprised, and hurriedly asked, "You can obviously dodge, weishenme doesn't dodge?" β
Dian Wei sneered and said, "My lord is dead, what does it mean for me to live?" You and I have been at war for a long time, if it weren't for each other's masters, I should have become a very good friend, and I can die in your hands, and I have no regrets in this life. β
After speaking, Dian Wei suddenly stretched out his hands, grabbed Xu Chu's steel knife, exerted all his strength, and pressed it hard, and the sharp blade directly cut off one of his arms. Then, Dian Wei's heart thrust forward, directly hitting the tip of Xu Chu's knife, the entire steel knife passed through his heart, and Dian Wei was about to lose consciousness, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Ahh
Xu Chu shouted, hugged Dian Wei's body, and muttered to himself: "Why are you so troubled, I originally planned to recommend you to the regent's ......"
"Multi-...... Thank you very much, but ...... I...... There can only be one ...... Host...... Master......" Dian Wei said in a very weak voice.
As soon as the words fell, Dian Wei died directly and died in Xu Chu's arms.
Tai Shici, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Gao Shun, Lu Meng and others also felt sorry for each other, and when they saw Dian Wei and Xu Chu sympathizing with each other, they also sighed.
Then, everyone came over and began to comfort Xu Chu.
At noon, the battle was over, and the city of Jinyang was in a mess, with corpses everywhere, and the entire city seemed to be washed away by blood.
The generals came to Zhang Yan to report the news, but Xu Chu was still immersed in the grief of Dian Wei's death and asked for a thick burial of Dian Wei.
Zhang Yan agreed to Xu Chu's request and handed over the matter to Xu Chu to do, but hung Cao Cao's head on the wall of Jinyang City, and then asked the soldiers to recount their merits, and they all recorded them in the merit book, and waited until later to make rewards.
After that, the battlefield was cleared, the bodies were buried, and the deep pits in the urn city were filled.
When the soldiers of the Han army were cleaning up the battlefield, they accidentally found Gan Ning who was immortal at the bottom of the pit, so they rescued Gan Ning and immediately went to tell Zhang Yan the good news.
Zhang Yan rushed over when he heard the news, and when he saw that Gan Ning was safe and sound, he was happy, and he hugged Gan Ning in his arms, and asked for warmth.
Gan Ning was moved for a while, and his words of gratitude were indescribable, so he hugged his fists and said: "The last general will not die, there will be blessings in the future, and I will do my best to serve the regent in the future to repay the regent's love!" β
Zhang Yan hahadaxiao got up, asked Gan Ning to go down to rest, and asked Gan Ning's name to be removed from the list of killed, and recorded Gan Ning's credit for charging into the battle and opening the city gate in the credit book.
On the same day, Zhang Yan personally went to meet the captured Wang Ling, and after some conversation, Wang Ling surrendered, and was still appointed by Zhang Yan as the Taiyuan Taishou, and the official was reinstated. And all the officials who surrendered and merged with the state, all the officials were reinstated, Zhang Yan and the residents of the city agreed on three chapters, and the army was disciplined, leaving a very good impression on the people of Jinyang.
Cao Cao died, Zhang Yan's heart finally calmed down, but Cao Cao's remnants were still there, Xiahou Yuan and Xun You were still confronting Zang Ba in Nanpi, Youzhou had not yet been subdued, and there were still many things to be done to pacify Hebei...... (To be continued......)
