Back to Qu Ah, at this time, Qu Ah, the land of Danjiu, is the last base of Liu Qi, a generation of Han emperors.

"Father, there is no hope for our army to win!" Liu Qi's eldest son said with a depressed expression.

Liu Qi's eyes were fixed, he was silent for a long time, and sat down on the main seat, Liu Qi glanced at the hall, only to see that it was empty, and he couldn't help but think of the grand occasion of the fierce generals like clouds and the ministers like rain in the past, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Prime Minister, do you think there is still hope for victory?"

"Your Majesty, for Weichen, whether there is or not, Weichen will fight Cao Cao to the death, and he has repaid the kindness of His Majesty and the Han family!"

Liu Qi looked at Zhuge Liang, wanted to speak and stopped, he understood that his prime minister had put life and death out of the way, thinking of this, Liu Qi's face suddenly flushed, and he laughed: "Even the prime minister has this ambition, how can I lose, life can meet an opponent like Cao Cao, it is not in vain, the prime minister can rest assured, I am here waiting for the prime minister to return victorious!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, may Your Majesty be happy for a long time!" Zhuge Liang bowed deeply to Liu Qi, and a touch of emotion and determination flashed in his eyes!

Zhuge Liang decided to fight Cao Cao to the end in Qu'a City, and for this reason he ordered all the men in Hao County to be recruited and all the grain collected.

Liu Jun hurriedly made preparations to defend the city, and the chickens and dogs jumped in the song, and the cries of the people were everywhere, and at the same time, Cao Cao finally arrived in Shicheng.

As soon as Cao Cao arrived in Shicheng, he hurried to see Ma Chao, who was seriously injured, and was placed in the wing of the Shicheng Office, where the healer and the best local doctor were found.

The situation of the Fifth Army in the city was stable. It was not affected much by Ma Chao's injury, but the Hun Legion was a little shaken.

Cao Cao came to Ma Chao's bed. I saw Ma Chao leaning on the cushion, red. The naked upper body is covered with thick bandages. There was a faint bright red under the bandage, and his face was pale, probably caused by excessive blood loss, but Ma Chao's spirit was not bad.

Cao Cao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said half-jokingly: "I just said that how could you, Jinma Chao, be so easy to die in battle!" ”

Ma Chao grinned, and then Ma Chao suddenly knelt down towards Cao Cao in severe pain, and knocked: "Please Your Majesty to cure the crime of defeat!" At this moment, the wound that had not yet been closed was torn open and spilled out from under the bandage, and in an instant, a large area of the bandage was dyed blood-red.

Cao Cao was taken aback. Hurriedly helped Zhang Fei to lie down, glared and scolded: "Bastard, you don't want to die!" Lie down for me! ”

Cao Cao didn't get out of his anger yet, got down from the bed, pointed at Ma Chao's nose and scolded: "If you bastard guy are messing around with me, I will drag your pants to the school yard and beat you!" ”

Everyone looked at Cao Cao, who was out of shape, in amazement.

Cao Cao glared at the doctor who was stunned and said, "What are you doing in a daze?" Don't hurry up and redress his wounds! ”

The doctor was startled and woke up, and hurriedly confessed and began to redress Ma Chao's wounds, Cao Cao glared at Ma Chao and warned: "If you mess around again, see how I clean you up!" ”

Ma Chao didn't even dare to squeak. But there was a flash of emotion in his eyes.

Then Cao Cao went to the military camp outside the city accompanied by Xiahoudun, Dian Wei, and Xu Chu, and after returning, Cao Cao decided not to wait for the Xuanjia cavalry, and the next day he marched into the army.

When the bill is scattered. Guo Jia suddenly remembered Zhou Tai, who had woken up, so he asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to see Zhou Tai?" ”

Cao Cao's mind flashed with information about Zhou Tai in his previous life. Cao Cao is still very interested in this famous sailor general.

But then Cao Cao thought of a question. After hesitating for a moment, he finally shook his head and said, "Although Zhou Tai was born as a water bandit. If you don't meet it, you are extremely arrogant and extremely loyal! You might as well chill him off first! ”

"Your Majesty is wise!" Guo Jia said with heartfelt admiration.

Cao Cao smiled slightly, "Okay, Fengxiao will also go down and prepare!" ”

"Yes, Weichen retired."

Early the next morning, Cao Cao, surrounded by Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Xiahou Xuan, Zhang He and Guo Jia, led the main force of the Fifth Army and the main force of the Xiongnu Army with a total of 80,000 people to leave Shicheng and drive towards the Shenting Ridge in the east.

The 80,000-strong army marched non-stop all the way and arrived at the foot of the Shenting Ridge three days later and set up camp.

Cao Cao led a team of Imperial Forest Army to climb an isolated mountain near Shenting Ridge, accompanied by Guo Jia, Dian Wei, and Xu Chu. ”

Guo Jia on the side couldn't help but nodded, and said: "And this kind of terrain is very easy to set ambushes and traps, and our army will be unable to guard against this!" Cao Cao looked at the terrain and frowned: "This Zhuge Kongming is very good at choosing places!" ”

"Your Majesty, for the sake of today's plan, after removing the strong attack, you can only look to see if there is a path to go!"

Due to the advantages of the location, Guo Jia really had no good way, so he could only choose to sneak attack from the path, looking at this undulating Shenting Ridge, Cao Cao nodded helplessly.

That night, the scout team found a few hunters who often went to Shenting Ridge to hunt from the vicinity and brought them to the Wei army's big tent, and a few hunters who had never seen a big scene saw the dozen or so generals in the big tent who were heavily armoured, burly and hideous, and couldn't help but fall down on their knees with weak legs, and bowed tremblingly: "Xiaomin, worship, worship, farewell, meet the general!" ”

Guo Jia smiled and said, "This is His Majesty the Great Wei Emperor!" ”

Several Orions were stunned on the spot, looking at Cao Cao who was sitting on the main seat with a smile on his face, and Xiahoudun on the side coughed, which made several Orions return to their senses, and hurriedly bowed down and said: "Xiaomin see Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live!" ”

"Alright, alright! You don't have to be polite! I asked you to come here because I wanted you to help! Cao Cao smiled.

Several Orions were taken aback, their faces showed disbelief, and they secretly said obediently! The Emperor wants us to help!?

"You don't have to kneel, get up and speak!" Cao Cao's face was kind and authentic.

Seeing Cao Cao's demeanor and tone, several Orions became less flustered and stood up, standing very uncomfortably.

Cao Cao asked, "Do you often go to Shenting Ridge to hunt?" ”

Several Orions nodded hurriedly.

Cao Cao couldn't help but be overjoyed, and asked again, "Do you know if there is a path that can bypass Shenting Ridge!" ”

Several of the younger hunters were about to set their eyes on one of the older hunters, and the older hunter thought for a moment and said, "If you want to talk about the path, there is one!" (To be continued.) )
