Chapter 172

"No, this Xia people are really despicable!"

Xu Chu's complexion changed drastically, with veins bursting out on his complexion, and he tightly grasped the saber in his hand.

Not only him, but Cao Ren and other generals all tensed up after seeing Lu Yu waving his hand.

Streams of anger burned in their eyes.

The momentum of the entire army was mobilized.

If the Xia people really dare to do something, then today they will definitely die!
Cao Ren and the others had a stern look on their faces, and a terrifying aura rushed out of their bodies, and the terrifying aura burst out suddenly.

The tiger and wolf generals were all on alert.

But fortunately, Daxia's soldiers and horses did not leave.

This made them breathe a sigh of relief.

But it's not a good feeling to be so nervous.

On the battlefield, Lu Yu and Cao Cao were different from the nervous soldiers. Instead, they sipped their tea leisurely with an easy-going demeanor.

In the sight of the soldiers of the two armies, several followers rushed over.

"Since Prime Minister Cao thinks this tea is good, I will give it to Prime Minister." Lu Yu chuckled.

The smile on Cao Cao's face froze, he didn't expect it to be such a thing.

"Then I would like to thank King Wu, but after talking about it today, I think King Wu is not just here to drink tea."

Cao Cao stared straight at Lu Yu and spoke intently.

"Why not? I heard that there is no good tea in Jingzhou, so I specially brought some here as a kindness to the landlord." Lu Yu said calmly.

"Although the tea is good, it's not as good as the wine. I like better wine." Cao Cao stroked his beard lightly and said calmly.

"Spirited wine is indeed good, but drinking is a mistake. If you delay the date of returning home, it will be bad for everyone."

Cao Cao's nerves shook, and wisps of wisdom flashed in his eyes, "Sure enough, it's still for this matter."

"Didn't Prime Minister Cao expressly say that the soldiers were homesick before, why did they stay in Wanzhou for such a long time now?" Lu Yu stared straight at Cao Cao with sharp eyes.

"That's true, but our army urgently needs to be repaired after repeated hard battles, so we have no choice but to stay here, but why did King Wu send soldiers to surround Bai County? Is this to put our soldiers to death?"

Cao Cao sighed, and then asked directly.

"It's nothing, Prime Minister, don't think too much, it's just that the sergeant is homesick."

Lu Yu tasted the tea and said lightly.

This made the corners of Cao Cao's mouth tremble suddenly, and homesickness turned out to be the best excuse.

"What are they talking about, Prime Minister?"

Xu Chu asked in a deep voice, those eyes were fixed on the distance, wishing to see all the scenes in the distance.

"Don't worry, what Lu Yu is talking about must be related to the current situation. Don't look at Lu Yu's aggressive approach, but in fact, he is nothing more than a strong outsider. At this time, what the Xia people want most is to seek peace!"

Cheng Yu had a calm face, and he had seen through Lu Yu's thoughts.

"Peace? What's there to talk about?"

Xu Chu looked puzzled. In his mind, asking for peace meant sending an envoy over and offering some gifts.

As long as the heart is sincere enough, most of them can be accomplished.

"It's not that simple. This Lu Yu will never ask for peace so easily." Cheng Yu shook his head, his eyes were deep, and his whole body carried a mysterious and unpredictable aura.

This made Xu Chu even more puzzled.

On the other side, Wang Meng and the others glanced back and forth in Cao Jun's formation, and then he suddenly lingered in Yang Zaixing's ear, and said softly, "General Yang, you can take five thousand Qingqi around to the rear of Cao Jun. Attacking Cao Jun's rear battalion will surely achieve great success!"

"it is good!"

Yang Zaixing didn't hesitate for a moment, he just turned his head and left.

"Bring Le Jin up."

Wang Meng didn't stop and said directly.

Yang Zaixing's sudden move was likely to be seen by others, so bringing Le Jin up could also attract Cao Jun's attention.

As long as Yang Zaixing can successfully go around, it will be too late for Cao Jun to react.

"Let me go! Kill me if you can!"

Le Jin was tied up and sent to the front of the formation, even so, he was still twisting his body, trying to resist.

A burst of divine power erupted from his body, and even the soldiers escorting him were all shocked.

However, Le Jin was tied up after all, so no matter how powerful he was, no matter how much he did, it would be useless.

"Is that man General Le Jin?"

"Could it be that the prime minister really has an agreement with the Xia people?"

After seeing Le Jin being sent to the camp, Cao Jun's camp suddenly became noisy and discussed.

"Shut up all of them, but those who speak lies will be killed without mercy!"

Cao Ren roared angrily, and the soldiers behind him immediately fell silent.

It's just that among the sergeants, the sense of doubt is even stronger at this moment.

Cao Ren's eyes fell on Le Jin again, and he gritted his teeth.

His thoughts were spinning, thinking about how to save Le Jin.

"General Le Jin has been with the prime minister for quite a while, and the prime minister probably doesn't want to see him die unexpectedly."

After seeing Le Jin being pushed out, Lu Yu said with a smile.

Cao Cao's complexion suddenly became gloomy, with a bit of anger on his face, "What does King Wu mean?"

"By the way, there are also soldiers from Bai County. There must be nearly [-] people there. Although there are not many, they are still human lives."

Lu Yu ignored Cao Cao, but said to himself, "There is also Xiahou Dun, I am afraid he is also surrounded now."

Originally, Cao Cao's expression was just gloomy. After all, what Lu Yu said at the beginning was within his expectation, but when he mentioned Xiahou Dun, his expression suddenly changed.

How is this possible, how could Xiahoudun be besieged!

Even if it is to dispatch troops and generals, it should not be so fast. Moreover, where did Lu Yu get so many soldiers and horses?
"Prime Minister, don't be amazed. We are a small country in Great Xia. Naturally, the population is not comparable to that of other states. Now that there are continuous wars, soldiers are scarce. In desperation, we can only find those old soldiers, and some young people who are farming have given up farming. When it comes up, although it is no better than a sergeant in the fighting years, there is only one advantage, that is, there are more people.

Such a number, together with Hu Luguang's soldiers and horses, is more than enough to besiege [-] soldiers and horses. "

When Cao Cao heard this, his face turned red and he became short of breath.

He resisted the urge to wave his sleeves away, and snorted coldly, "So what, there are probably nearly [-] people in Bai County, and I don't believe that King Wu dares to besiege to the end!"

"The prime minister dared to abandon those soldiers and horses, as well as the lives of Le Jin and Xiahou Dun. Why wouldn't I dare? What's more, those people were all killed by people from Jingzhou. What does it have to do with my siege?"

Lu Yu made up his mind and said bluntly.

At this time, he can't admit defeat.

The two looked at each other for a long time.

Call ~
"I didn't expect that you are so young, but your heart is so cruel."

Cao Cao heaved a long sigh after going through some ideological struggle, his expression was unprecedentedly dignified.

I don't want to admit it, but that's the truth.

He couldn't do such a lose-lose exchange.

Losing the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers and two generals, this deal is not worth it.

"We are willing to withdraw troops."

After Cao Cao's words fell, Lu Yu's expression remained unchanged, but he just shook his head.

"What else do you want?"

Cao Cao looked at Lu Yu deeply, and uttered a sentence from his mouth word by word.

"The prime minister should also know that our Great Xia fought successively and suffered great losses. Before the Qin army invaded the territory, many farmlands were all destroyed, so we have no food to use now. I am afraid that both the army and the civilians will be starved." die."

"So I want to ask the prime minister to send 30 stones of grain and grass." Lu Yu said softly.

But before he finished speaking, Cao Cao's expression changed.

If he hadn't suppressed the anger in his heart, he would have almost cursed directly.

30 stone!

This is clearly robbery.

Although 30 stones of grain and grass are nothing to Cao Cao.

After unifying the northern border of Jingzhou, his soldiers have been garrisoning the fields, and the weather has been good. When the harvest is good, a lot of food and grass have been saved.

30 shi is really just a small amount for him now.

But why?
Why should he give Lu Yu 30 shi!
"30 shi, King Wu really has a good appetite!"

Cao Cao waved his sleeves and stood up, staring at Lu Yu coldly with a bad expression on his face.

"Is Prime Minister Cao going to refuse?"

Lu Yu chuckled, raised his head slightly, and stared straight at Cao Cao.

"Now that we both have the handle in the other party's hands, why didn't King Wu give us 30 stones of food and grass?"

Snorting contemptuously, Cao Cao was about to leave.

"It's only tens of thousands of people. Although there are few people in Wanzhou, there are still some, and there are many refugees in Qingzhou. We are already migrating part of them. However, there are two generals and [-] strong soldiers. I don't know how long the prime minister will spend. Time to cultivate?"

Cao Cao's body staggered, his eyes repelled the blood, he stared at Lu Yu, cursing shamelessly in his heart.

Is it really less than whose loss?
mean!

With a cold snort, Cao Cao walked directly towards the army formation without looking back.

"Prime Minister Cao, you will change your mind."

Lu Yu said with a smile.

This made Cao Cao frowned, but he didn't slow down and strode away.

"Kill, kill Lu Yu here!"

After Cao Cao returned to the army formation, he ordered directly.

However, before he left, he heard the sound of killing from among the rear army.

"what happened?"

"Prime Minister, it's not good. This Yang Zaixing got around to the rear of our army at some point, and now he's already fighting."

The faces of everyone changed suddenly.

Cao Cao looked gloomyly at Lu Yu's figure in the distance, his teeth bared and his eyes cracked.

"Let's withdraw troops."

Reluctantly spit out a word.

Cao Jun retreated slowly.

But who knows, after returning to Daying, another piece of bad news came, which completely broke Cao Cao's spirit.

Recalling Lu Yu's last sentence, Cao Cao swung his sword back and forth in the big tent!

 Thank you Huan Yueyu for your reward
