Cao Cao crosses Wu Dalang

Chapter 418
Sanruan went away for a long time and did not return, Cao Cao couldn't help feeling worried, he took a group of brothers and went to wait in front of the camp gate, but he saw a person walking in a hurry on the canal.

Wu Song had sharp eyes, pointed and shouted: "But it's not Niu Gao? Why did he come back alone?"

Cao Cao frowned, went to the water's edge, saw him covered in blood and dust, and his face was bruised, and asked anxiously, "Why are you in such a mess? Where are the three brothers?"

Niu Gao jumped ashore, knelt on the ground, and cried loudly: "Brother, what a disaster! The four of us wanted to prevent the city from being flooded, so we rowed to a mountain peak in Taihu Lake to see the water situation. Unexpectedly, there were four villains on that island. In charge of two or three hundred men capable of fighting, their words and deeds were very rude, and they started to fight at a disagreement with him. He cast a fishing net and caught the second and seventh brothers, and caught the fifth brother with the hook. The younger brother ran into the woods , They couldn't cast a net, so the younger brother fled to the water's edge, and walked back with the broken wave shoes, but the three older brothers were stuck on the island, saying that they wanted to eat their hearts."

Everyone was surprised and angry when they heard this, and Li Kui shouted, "Dare to eat our brother? What a daring man! Brother, give me a team, and Tie Niu will level the island for brother."

Cao Cao waved his hands and said, "If you fight on land, you will naturally use you, but he is on the island. Now that the Ruan family brothers have been killed, how can we still fight with people in water?"

After all, he had experienced the Battle of Chibi, and he knew that water warfare is completely different from land warfare, and that only specialized personnel are needed to be worthy of a battle.

Li Kui said anxiously: "Don't you care about the three of them?"

Wu Song said angrily: "Why don't you ignore it? Don't ask me to talk about it, let the elder brother think about it carefully."

Everyone didn't dare to make a sound, Cao Cao questioned Niu Gao carefully for a while, repeated every word the other said, nodded and said: "In this way, this group of people are not the ones to wait for nothing."

Lu Junyi wondered: "How did you start?"

Cao Cao said: "Fang La is a great man in the Jianghu. This time the rebellion is very powerful. There are famous heroes in the south of the Yangtze River, and all of them are under his command, just like Lu Shinang and even the twelve gods in the south of the Yangtze River. In terms of these four people, who can understand He is water-based, and he can fight against Sanruan, and he has a cadre of troops under his command. If he is willing to take refuge in Fang La, it is not an exaggeration to make him the commander of the navy, right? But he would rather be free and easy, which shows that he has a lot of troubles in his heart."

Everyone nodded when they heard this, and Cao Cao said again: "They live in Taihu Lake, and the upper and lower states are all occupied by Fang La, but they sit and watch them screaming proudly. It can be seen that his island is by no means easy to fight. By the side, why let him sleep soundly?"

Lu Junyi rubbed his head and smiled, "I also listened to what Niu Gao said, but I never thought of what my brother thinks."

Bian Xiang was thoughtful, and said slowly: "If you say it like this, wouldn't we be unable to impress him?"

Cao Cao nodded and sighed: "Although the 3000 men and horses in our battalion are all capable of fighting, there are very few who are good at sailing boats. There are also few warships, and they don't know the water conditions of Taihu Lake. Therefore, if we want to fight with these few It is really not the best policy to sit on the ground and start a war."

Everyone was very upset when they heard this, but after thinking about it, everything Cao Cao said was true, so he had to swallow his anger.

Lu Junyi frowned and said: "In this way, do you want to give in to him?"

Cao Cao smiled disapprovingly: "If you can save the lives of my three brothers, what's the point of being subdued? If he is really rude, after he is rescued, I will call the Yellow River and Dengzhou Navy to kill him. Do not stay."

Niu Gao said happily: "Brother's words are exactly the same as what my younger brother said, and my younger brother also said that if they don't respect the three elder brothers of the Ruan family, they will send an army to kill him."

Cao Cao nodded and said, "That's the most correct thing you said! I guess they will not dare to hurt Sanruan easily when they see that you have a treasure in your body and that you are a general of the imperial court. Otherwise, everything will be over."

After finishing speaking, he said: "In the current situation, since we can't take it by force, we have to move it with emotion. Erlang—"

Wu Song heard him call him, and quickly responded: "Brother, brother is here."

Cao Cao said indifferently: "You and I, brothers, go to his island together, do you dare?"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and Wu Song laughed loudly and said, "Brother, didn't you mean to tease brother? The palace in the sky, the city of death in the underworld, are there any places that Wu Song dare not go? It's just that the elder brother doesn't have to take the risk himself. Wait for my little brother..."

Before he finished speaking, Cao Cao interrupted him, pointing and laughing: "Look, everyone, I asked him if he dared, and he said yes, but then said I don't want to go, wouldn't he still dare?"

Li Kui quickly explained: "Second brother is always smart, but why did he stay here today? Brother is not asking if you dare to go, but if you dare to let him go."

Wu Song didn't expect that there was a trap in Cao Cao's words, so he glared at Li Kui: "You are so clever!"

Sighing, he looked at Cao Cao: "Brother, as the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. There are many brothers who are like wolves and tigers. No matter who they are, if you come with me, you will surely rescue the three brothers of the Ruan family. Eldest brother has the Han family Qianqiu on his shoulders, why bother to take risks?"

When he said this, all the brothers nodded and advised Cao Cao not to go in person.Lu Junyi rubbed his belly, stabbed and said: "Brother only cares about sitting high, and wait for my younger brother to bring Xiao Yi, and go for a walk with Erlang. If you don't pick up his three brothers back, younger brother will come to see you."

Du Po, Bian Xiang, Han Shizhong and others also rushed to go.

Cao Cao waved his hand and stopped everyone from talking: "You don't need to fight for your brothers. If you want to go for a brother, it's not to be brave. If you go to battle and kill the enemy, you will naturally wait for your brothers. However, this is a peace, and there must be Many affairs require critical decisions, and only being a brother is the most suitable. As for the danger..."

He looked up at Wu Song and said triumphantly: "Although I am afraid that he will fight in the water, but now there are only two of us going, doesn't he dare to let me go to the island? Now that I am on the island, hehe, my second brother is invincible in the world, don't say He has two or three hundred people, even two or three thousand people, what can he do to me?"

When he said the phrase "My second brother is invincible in the world", he was beaming with joy and was very pleased with himself. Wu Song benefited greatly from what he heard, even though he didn't want Cao Cao to take risks, but this sentence hit his itching point.Immediately held his head high and chest out, he punched all the brothers, and said with emotion: "Brothers, don't worry, but with Wu Song breathing, my elder brother can't hurt a single hair."

Niu Gao was a little dissatisfied when he heard this: "Second brother, none of the brothers are not convinced by your ability, but you have never seen that guy has a fishing net array, and the nets are scattered all over the sky, and they are hard to guard against. If you eat other nets Among them, even the gods are helpless."

Yanqing smiled and said, "Brother Niu, are you crazy? Don't you know the twelve short halberds of Second Brother Wu? Within twenty or thirty steps, they are useless, and those fellows are still waiting to cast their nets? I'm afraid they just raised them. hand, life is at stake."

Wu Song laughed loudly: "Yan Xiao Yi Duan is very knowledgeable, Wu Er thinks so too."

Li Kui shouted: "Although the second brother is capable, he is not superhuman after all. It is better to take my Tieniu with him. If there is a fight, the second brother will kill the enemy by himself, and Tie Niu will protect the elder brother. Wouldn't he have no worries about the future?"

Cao Cao said: "Brother, it's because he refuses to take you. It's just that Erlang is already a majestic man. If he brings you such an imposing man, he will definitely have doubts. If he stops me from leaving the island, everything will be over."

Some words persuaded the crowd, and Han Shizhong was ordered to guard the camp. He and Wu Song found a small boat and let two soldiers who knew how to swim row the oars. Niu Gao led the way. Into Taihu Lake.

At this time, the sky was getting dark, and a ray of setting sun spread across the lake surface, illuminating the lake, hills and mountains far and near a golden red.Just a breeze rolled over the lake, sparkling waves, like a lake of broken gold.Cao Cao saw it in his eyes and praised him endlessly, at this moment he heard Niu Gao shouting: "Brother, that's the island."

Cao Cao withdrew his gaze, glanced at the big island in front of him, and told Niu Gao to step on the water to go back, and let the soldiers who were rowing the oars go straight to it.

When he got closer, he suddenly heard the sound of whining conch, and many strong men rushed out of the island, jumped straight to the small boats, and surrounded Cao Cao's boats on the lake. people.

Wu Song stood up, picked up the double halberds, and stood in front of Cao Cao.

Lao Cao remained calm, pushed Wu Song away, and punched Wu Song with a smile: "Brothers Wu Zhi and Wu Song from Yanggu County have come all the way to the south to pay a special visit to the four heroes in Taihu Lake. I hope you can meet them in person!"

There are different teachings: Xiaoao mountains and rivers are full of joy, and the rivers and lakes are turbulent.Why do you want to break into the tiger wolf's lair?My second brother is invincible in the world.
