Three Kingdoms: Madam, I am a decent person

Chapter 526 Xun You and Cao Cao's Despair

When Xiahou Yuan heard what Zhang Sui said, his face felt a little hot.

He was really afraid of this kid.

I was suppressed by this kid several times.

I feel like I've lived in vain.

When Cao Cao saw Cao Hong's head, he dared not move forward.

During this expedition, he approached Zhang Sui twice and was almost killed once, and Xi Zhicai was almost killed once.

It was all due to Zhang Sui’s lack of martial ethics and sudden attack.

Cao Cao asked Le Jin to step forward.

Le Jin looked at Zhang Sui and felt a little scared.

He had seen with his own eyes Xu Huang being swept away by Zhang Sui's lance.

My martial arts skills are not much different from Xu Huang's.

If Zhang Sui suddenly attacks me, I might end up dying here too!
However, at this time, he had no choice.

Among all the generals today, he and Xu Huang have the lowest status.

After a slight hesitation, Le Jin rode his horse forward and came in front of Zhang Sui.

Zhang Sui looked at Le Jin's cautious look and felt like laughing.

Suddenly, he snorted at Le Jin.

Le Jin was so frightened that he turned his horse around and was about to leave.

Everyone: "."

Cao Cao looked at Zhang Sui: "."

My son-in-law has absolutely no bottom line!

In a life-and-death battle, he still played such a prank.

However, Cao Cao's heart was also bleeding.

If he had some doubts before whether the Xianchen Camp and Yan Liang's 3,000 cavalry army were here, now he had no doubts at all.

In such a situation, his son-in-law was still able to play a prank, which showed how relaxed he was.

Without sufficient confidence, he would never do such a thing.

Hebei, how could it be taken down so easily?
Before, he only had Xuzhou and Lujiang, and he had the confidence to sign an alliance agreement with him.

Now, he not only controls Xuzhou and Lujiang, but also swallows up the whole Hebei.

Cao Cao couldn't even think of any way to deal with him!

Le Jin was also so angry at Zhang Sui's prank that his face turned red.

Feeling the gazes all around him, Le Jin wished he could find a hole to crawl into.

What a shame!
I have fought on the battlefield for more than ten years, but I was scared like this!

After glaring at Zhang Sui fiercely, Le Jin turned his horse around and stretched out his hand towards Zhang Sui.

His eyes were always on Zhang Sui's right hand holding the lance.

Once Zhang Sui was about to attack, even if he couldn't defeat him, he would have a chance to react.

Zhang Sui did not scare Le Jin again this time.

One moment is enough.

Zhang Sui handed Cao Hong's head to Le Jin, and then said to Cao Cao: "Father-in-law, I will give you three days to withdraw the army from Lihu County, and we will continue to implement the alliance agreement."

"If you don't withdraw within three days, I will no longer care about our friendship."

"When the time comes, I will have the Xianchen Camp and Yan Liang's two armies of 3,000 cavalry go out at the same time."

"Don't blame me for not caring about the relationship between father-in-law and son-in-law at that time."

After Zhang Sui finished speaking, he turned his horse around and left with Chen Gong, Zhang Liao, Xu Dan and others.

The army also slowly withdrew following Zhang Sui.

Cao Cao stared at Zhang Sui so hard that his teeth were about to break.

Facing his son-in-law Zhang Sui, he actually felt even more terrified than facing Yuan Shao!

How old is Yuan Shao?

Moreover, he is the true descendant of three generations of officials.

How old is Zhang Sui's son-in-law?

Moreover, he came from a farming family!

However, no matter how much hatred you feel at this moment, it will be of no use.

Cao Cao watched Le Jin come back and took Cao Hong's head from Le Jin. Tears immediately rolled down his cheeks and he shook his head, saying, "Zilian, it's all my fault."

"If I hadn't insisted on taking the opportunity to go north and find out the situation, you wouldn't have died in a foreign land."

Xun You and Cheng Yu both looked a little hot-tempered.

As Cao Cao said this, he put his forehead against Cao Hong's and burst into tears.

All the generals and soldiers were silent. Cao Cao cried for a long time before signaling the army to withdraw to Lihu County.

Xun You was about to ride his horse forward.

He always felt that this matter was becoming more and more strange.

He still thinks this is a scam!

He still firmly believed in that truth: the more guilty one is, the weaker one is, the more one should show one's fangs to intimidate the enemy.

But before he could go forward, he was stopped by Xi Zhicai.

Xun You frowned, somewhat impatient.

Xi Zhicai smiled and whispered, "My lord is in pain right now, and General Cao Hong was killed in the battle."

"At this point, even if you can talk till you're drunk, he won't listen."

"The lord has always been a man of ideas, and he has come this far relying on his ideas."

"We made a big mistake and underestimated Zhang Sui's strength, which led to such a disastrous defeat."

"If you keep giving advice, it will only annoy him."

After pondering for a moment, Xi Zhicai whispered, "Besides, I feel that Zhang Sui and his men do have some troops this time."

"The reason why he arranged this this time is very likely not only to weaken our strength, but also to alienate the relationship between us, the strategists, and the lord."

"If the Lord becomes suspicious of us and refuses to listen to our advice, then the next time he attacks us, we will surely be defeated."

"Bear it!"

After Xi Zhicai finished speaking, he let go of Xun You's wrist and rode his horse to catch up with Cao Cao.

Xun You looked at the backs of Xi Zhicai and Cao Cao as they left, and slapped his thigh hard with his right hand, making a loud clapping sound.

He firmly believed that this was the best opportunity to go north and take Hebei.

With Zhang Sui's ability, if he missed this opportunity, it would be almost impossible for him to take over Hebei again in the future!
His fourth uncle came to him for help.

Ju Shou and Tian Feng were both unparalleled talents in the country.

There were also brave generals like Yan Liang, Wen Chou, and Gao Shun.

How is this played?
Xun You looked up at the sky, his eyes bloodshot.

Is this life?
Xun You sighed as Xi Zhicai's words just now echoed in his mind.

On Zhang Sui's side, there are talented people who are no less talented than us.

Especially that Chen Gong, who understood his lord's thoughts thoroughly.

These people of ours are really being played to death!

Jia Xu rode over, glanced at Xun You, and shook his head.

young people.

Too utilitarian.

Such a person, even if he is not plotted to death by the monarch, will die from overwork.

It's nothing more than getting into officialdom, gaining power, and ensuring that you have enough food and drink.

Is it worth going to so much trouble?
Whoever wins in the end doesn’t win?

If you put in so much effort now, what if it is Zhang Sui who wins the world in the future? By then, not only will your life be in danger, but your family will also be implicated and will die with you.

does it worth?
No matter how much the world fights, it will never fall into the hands of his advisers.

Doing this for the sake of others' great cause——

Jia Xu rode past Xun You and said, "I am old, and I am not as eager as you young people to achieve success. However, this kind of thing will happen naturally. Don't be impatient, otherwise, you will hurt others and yourself."

After hearing what Jia Xu said, Xun You lowered his head, stopped patting his thigh, and followed the army towards Lihu County.

Cao Cao led his army to Lihu County and immediately ordered people to deal with Cao Hong's body.

He sat alone beside Xiahou Dun's bed, silently shedding tears.

When he came into this war, he was full of high spirits. He even fantasized about taking over Hebei in one fell swoop and sweeping across the world from then on.

But now, not only did he fail to take Hebei, but he also lost tens of thousands of troops, his cousin Cao Hong, and Xiahou Dun's life and death were in danger.

Cao Cao wiped the tears from his face with his right hand and let out a long sigh.

He has always targeted Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang.

Even Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang was in a similar situation, yet he was able to establish the Han Dynasty.

How could I, who possesses such strong power now, end up in such a state?

Now that Yuan Shao had just passed away and Zhang Sui had just taken over Hebei, he had no way of winning.

Cao Cao shook his head silently.

He couldn't imagine any possibility of taking over Hebei in the future!
Just as Cao Cao was sighing, there was a knock on the door.

Cao Cao suddenly turned around, a trace of anger appeared on his tear-stained face, and he drew the sword from his waist.

He wanted to see who was so blind as to disturb him at this time!
