1015 Tiger Marquis Blood and Tears
"At that time, I did not want to participate in the struggle for succession, so I left my father and left the country. Now that his father has returned to Yiling, Chong'er guards the tomb day and night, and if it is not for the general, he will not come out. Cao Chong said.
"Sure enough, it's Chong'er!" Jia Xu in the rear rubbed his eyes carefully, and finally confirmed the matter, and tears flashed in his eyes.
"Jia Bo, Chong'er lives in Yiling, do you want me to drift away in a foreign land again?" Cao Chong said politely.
"Weichen doesn't dare!" Jia Xu hurriedly arched his hand.
"This was also arranged by my father during his lifetime." Cao Chong reminded again, and Jia Xu gave up his hand again and again, secretly sighing.
"Chong'er, I don't know something, how did the prime minister come to Yiling?" Xu Chu wiped a handful of tears and asked puzzled.
Cao Chong glanced at Wang Baoyu, and Wang Baoyu sighed: "Actually, the prime minister's ashes are placed in Yiling, alas, it's a pity that you came to disturb him." ”
Both Xu Chu and Jia Xu were stunned and couldn't believe it, Cao Chong nodded and said, "What my brother said is true, my father is in Yiling today." ”
"The prime minister has long been buried, and it is nonsense to put ashes in Yiling! Chong'er, you must have been coaxed by Wang Baoyu to help him speak! The prime minister was bewitched by Wang Baoyu before his death, and he was shamelessly used by him after his death, and today the old minister will definitely bring you back to the north, and Yi Ling cannot be left! Jia Xu almost roared, Wang Baoyu's big words simply went to the sky.
"Lao Jia, here is a letter, written by Lao Cao himself, open your eyes and take a good look at it yourself." Wang Baoyu snorted coldly, took the letter out of his arms, and sent a soldier to send it over.
Jia Xu took it with trembling hands, and was stunned on the spot, unable to say a word. Xu Chu anxiously snatched the letter and looked at it carefully.
At the end of this letter, Xu Chu actually saw his name, especially the eight words "Kindness is deep, only hatred parting", like a knife, stabbed his heart.
"Prime Minister! Xu Chu is here! Xu Chu shouted, turned over and dismounted, and kowtowed to the statue in Cao Chong's hand.
"General Xu, hurry up!" Jia Xu suddenly panicked, if Wang Baoyu launched a counterattack at this time, both he and Xu Chu would be unable to save their lives.
"Baoyu, if you step forward this time, you will definitely kill Xu Chu." Fan Jinqiang whispered.
"You can't take advantage of people's danger, just look and see." Wang Baoyu hesitated for a moment, but still said so.
Xu Chu knelt on the ground, howling and crying, no matter how Jia Xu persuaded him, he just couldn't get up, Jia Xu was still unwilling, "Xu is Wang Baoyu fabricated the facts, there is no verifiability!" ”
"Hmph, Lao Jia, you are really smart but you are mistaken by cleverness. When you go back, ask the person in charge, Zhong Xuan, and then ask your new master, Cao Pi, presumably they can prove this. Wang Baoyu said disdainfully.
This, this! Jia Xu was completely stunned, took two steps back and squatted on the ground, cold sweat and old tears intertwined.
Xu Chu cried and fell to the ground, and finally, several soldiers desperately stepped forward to pull Xu Chu up, but the scene in front of him stunned everyone.
Xu Chu's face was covered with blood, he looked terrifying, he was too sad, what he shed was not tears, it was blood!
"Tiger idiot general, stop crying!" Jia Xu was shocked and hurriedly persuaded.
"Prime Minister, I wish to go with you! Go with you! Xu Chu shouted at the sky, and suddenly fell backwards, unconscious.
Jia Xu was stupid, only to hear Wang Baoyu sigh faintly, and said: "Old Jia, don't fight anymore, don't retreat, don't you force me to kill you all?" ”
When Jia Xu heard this, he woke up like a dream, and hurriedly ordered the army to retreat, and Wang Baoyu did not chase after him, and immediately ordered a group of people to climb the earth mountain and dig a deep ditch to separate the earth mountain from the city wall.
Xu Chu was carried back to the camp and summoned repeatedly, and it took him half a day to wake up, his eyes glazed over, and he muttered only four words in his mouth, defend Yiling.
In this situation, how can he still lead the troops to fight, seeing that the two armies are coming, Jia Xu has no choice but to give up the attack on Yiling, and lead the army straight to the north, and the entire plan to attack Yiling has fallen short.
Wang Baoyu did not send troops to chase, he was merciful, it does not mean that others are like this, I heard that Jia Xu led his troops to the north in a hurry, Han Dang led an army of 30,000 to chase after him, and Mo Qianxun took Ma Yunlu and others, and also began to pursue Jia Xu's army.
"Zhongkang! Hurry up and meet the enemy! Jia Xu had the mind to cry to death.
"Defend the Yi Tomb!" Xu Chu was like a fool, and he still repeated this sentence in his mouth.
Jia Xu could only order the deputy general to go to meet the battle, Ma Yunlu and Han Dang were familiar with each other, and soon started a cooperation battle, and several deputy generals couldn't resist at all and were defeated one after another.
On the edge of the Han River, a big battle lasted for two days and two nights, and Jia Xu finally ordered the soldiers to swim across the Han River, and grabbed a few fishing boats before reluctantly transporting Xu Chu to the other side, killing and wounding more than 30,000 people, and drowning in the Han River.
After counting the soldiers and horses, there were less than 50,000 people left, all of which were robbed of grain, grass, baggage, etc., and there was no possibility of going to Xiangyang again.
Cao Jun retreated to the north very miserably, and Jia Xu, who was conceited and intelligent, was hit hard by his soul and was silent all the way.
After returning to Yecheng, Jia Xu kowtowed to Cao Pi and pleaded guilty, detailing the battle situation. Cao Pi didn't blame him, nor did he blame Xu Chu, because he was also stupid.
The ashes of his father Cao Cao were placed in Yiling, which has always made Cao Pi haunted, but what he didn't expect was that his younger brother Cao Chong also appeared in Yiling, which was really unbelievable.
Cao Pi's mouth was full of bitterness, Cao Chong was a well-known candidate for succession back then, and if the old ministers learned about this, they were afraid that their position would also be threatened. Cao Pi immediately issued a strict order, and this matter must not be publicized.
"Father, in your heart, what is the status of your son?" Cao Pi put a stick of incense in front of Cao Cao's spiritual throne alone, "When I was a child, I was proud of being reincarnated as your son, and I secretly resolved that when I grew up, I would be as heroic as you. However, as he grew older, Erchen became more and more afraid, and he was really afraid of death, because the younger brothers who were born one after another were better than the other, I am not as good as Cao Zhang in terms of loyalty and bravery, I am not as good as Cao Zhi in terms of intelligence, and Chong'er, his benevolence is beyond my reach in eternal life. Father, you tell me that if you are determined to let your sons succeed to the throne, why do you let these brothers who are so much loved by you live in this world and are eyeing my throne? Father, you sue me, sue me! Don't you be able to do it yourself, so you leave them to do it for you? Isn't that so?! ”
Cao Pi was so angry that he secretly gritted his teeth and swore that sooner or later he would take Wang Baoyu's life, including his younger brother Cao Chong.
After two defeats and a loss of 200,000 soldiers and horses, Cao Pi did not dare to act rashly for a while, and ordered to go down, continue to recruit troops and buy horses, accumulate money and grain, and definitely send a larger number of troops in the coming day to comprehensively conquer Wang Baoyu.
