684 Therefore, the calculation is repeated
"Can Wen Ruo explain before he dies?" Cao Cao wiped his tears and asked Xun Yun.
Xun Yun's face was embarrassed, and he said: "My father is grateful for the grace of the prime minister, but he can't repay it without a holiday, and tells me to inherit my will and serve the prime minister for the work of dogs and horses." ”
Cao Cao was even more sad when he heard this, and tears kept falling, "Wen Ruo treats me loyally, but it is a pity that he can't see his last face." Even if you don't say it, you know that Wen Ruo has a lot of complaints about me in his heart. ”
Xun Yun was so shocked that he immediately kowtowed, and said that the prime minister was too worried, and his father had no such intention, and after hesitating, he still said truthfully: "Before my father died, he took my hand, and finally couldn't understand the meaning of the prime minister sending an empty box of halva? ”
Cao Cao was immediately stunned, thought about it carefully, and immediately understood that the box of halva must have been taken away by Yang Xiu, leaving only an empty box. Xun Yu had already rushed into himself one after another, and received an empty box, so it was inevitable that he would think too much in his heart, so he resigned with illness. Alas, I never expected that such a seemingly oolong incident would damage an important strategist.
"Alas, Gu Shi was kind enough to send snacks to Wen Ruo to recuperate with peace of mind, but he didn't know that the box was empty, and it was Lone's fault that Wen Ruo lost his life!" Cao Cao sighed and commented.
Of course Xun Yun won't say anything more, this is also to blame his father for not thinking about it, he has the courage to accuse the prime minister on weekdays, why don't he ask about this dim sum matter, he has to guess randomly, and he will die unknown?
Cao Cao immediately ordered Xun Yu to be buried, and wrote a letter to Xun Yun, asking Xun Yun to take it to meet the saint, and named Xun Yu as the Marquis, and named his son Xun Yun as the general of the Tiger Ben.
Xun Yu's death made Cao Cao regretful, although he mourned after his death, but the deceased died forever, and he did not know the world. Of course, it's no wonder that Yang Xiu is doing this, after all, he also did it unintentionally, since the prime minister let one person take a bite of crisp, or put two boxes together, the snacks inside are the same, and most people will think that all two boxes can be eaten.
But Xun Yu's death touched Cao Cao very much, especially when he lost it, he knew how to cherish it, recalling the bits and pieces of the decades, the more he thought about it, the more he felt regretful, so that he was annoyed when he saw Yang Xiu, which laid the root cause for Yang Xiu's death later.
Cao Cao was in high spirits for many days because of Xun Yu's incident. The war has not yet begun, but it is in danger one after another, and it is very unlucky to lose important strategists by mistake.
Cao Cao sighed during the day, and couldn't sleep well at night, often dreaming that Xun Yu came to chat with him, or holding an empty box and huddled in a corner and wept. If you don't sleep well, headaches will be more frequent, Cao Cao can't bear to be disturbed, and in the end, he can only put Lou Zibo'an's small wooden sword under the pillow to finally sleep peacefully.
Sun Quan did not move, the war was in a stalemate, and in the blink of an eye, in the late autumn, the fallen leaves were sluggish, which made people feel lonely. This night, Cao Cao, who was in an unhappy mood, pulled Wang Baoyu to drink a lot of wine, and talked about the past, some things Wang Baoyu had heard several times, and his ears were calloused, and he was even wondering if people were like this when they were old, and they liked to reminisce about the past.
It was not until midnight that the two separated, and Cao Cao was confided in his heart, and he fell asleep. However, not long after Wang Baoyu left Cao Cao, a thick fog rose on the surface of the lake, and Cao's soldiers immediately raised their vigilance, lest the Jiangdong army come to attack.
At two or three o'clock in the second half of the night, the drums suddenly rumbled on the lake, and the shadows of the ships were heavy, and the Jiangdong warships with countless shadows rushed towards this side.
"Prime Minister, the Jiangdong army took advantage of the fog to attack!" Cao Hong hurriedly ran into the tent to report.
Cao Cao drank too much, his eyes were sleepy, and he said dissatisfiedly: "This matter is very simple, just let the arrow stop it." ”
"Prime Minister, will there be fraud in it?" Cao Hong asked again.
Cao Cao rolled over, didn't listen to the words, turned his head and continued to fall asleep.
According to Cao Cao's orders, Cao Hong immediately led a large army and frantically fired arrows at the shadow of the ship on the lake. The effect seemed to be obvious, and the screams of the Jiangdong soldiers were heard from time to time, but the Jiangdong ships had no intention of retreating.
When it was almost dawn, Cao Cao woke up, rubbing his swollen head, in a trance, as if dreaming of Jiangdong coming. When his feet occupied the area and looked at the figure shuttling outside the camp, he slapped his head suddenly, it was not a dream, it was really such a thing!
Cao Cao immediately cheered up, ran to wake up Wang Baoyu, who was also in a daze, and went to the front line to check the military situation together.
On the edge of the lake, the war is still going on, Cao Hong is high-spirited, constantly commanding the soldiers to release arrows, wisps of blood, floating from the misty lake to this side, it seems that the casualties of the Jiangdong soldiers are not small.
The warships of Jiangdong never docked, but they did not retreat, and the black pressure in the fog gathered together, still drumming and shouting endlessly.
As soon as he saw this scene, Wang Baoyu frowned and complained to Cao Cao: "Alas, old Cao, people say that you can't trip over the same stone twice, you are fooled." ”
Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, then reacted, patted his head in annoyance, and said: "Alas, is it really old that Lone is really old, drunk and dizzy, and he actually forgot about borrowing arrows from the grass boat." ”
"Stop firing arrows!" Cao Cao hurriedly ordered.
"Prime Minister, Jiangdong's blood is stained with the river, and there are countless casualties." Cao Hong said unwillingly.
"How do you know it's human blood?" Wang Baoyu asked.
"This ......" Cao Hong was speechless for a moment, and he also realized that he seemed to have been fooled, and then hurriedly said: "Let's go and order to stop firing arrows!" ”
Wang Baoyu grabbed him and said, "You can't stop firing arrows, you still have to change to rocket attacks." ”
Cao Cao immediately chimed in: "Yes, attack with rockets immediately." ”
Cao Hong also suddenly realized, and hurriedly asked the soldiers to replace them with rockets, and countless fire balls attacked the Jiangdong ships.
Soon, a fire broke out on the lake, and after a while, the drumming and shouting of the Jiangdong warship came to an abrupt end, and the ship quickly retreated, only to hear someone on the largest ship shouting: "Cao Mengde, my plan has been seen through by you, and I will fight again in the coming day!" ”
It was Sun Quan's voice, I really didn't expect that Sun Quan's courage was so big, and he personally led the troops to come, which was too arrogant. Cao Cao was annoyed, and only hated that his warship could not be transported, otherwise, he would have gone all out to capture Sun Quan.
The fog on the lake gradually receded, and the water seemed to be full of the corpses of Jiangdong soldiers. Many straw men are densely packed with arrows, and due to the heavy eating, they are slowly falling into the water.
It goes without saying that the blood that floats in must also be livestock, which shows that Sun Quan has made a lot of preparations in advance for this straw boat to borrow arrows.
