Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 251 Killing Cao Ren, Surprised!

"Cao Ying's iron wall really deserves its reputation. Even in such adversity, it can cause so many casualties to our army."

Yuan Tan took a step forward, and the black horse followed closely behind him, sometimes making a hissing sound, wanting to let the master ride it to gallop around the city and kill the enemy.

It's just that Yuan Tan didn't pay attention to Wu Zhima's eagerness to fight, his eyes stayed on Cao Ren, and he praised softly.

Even Pang De and Huang Zhong, even if they are extremely arrogant in their hearts.

Looking at Cao Ren's eyes at this moment, there is no lack of admiration.

If they are relocated, neither Huang Zhong nor Pang De has the confidence to keep the fighting spirit of the soldiers under his command until this time.

I am afraid that as early as the moment Shouchun City was broken, the soldiers under his command had already wanted to coerce him.

Either abandoned the city and fled, or surrendered before the battle.

However, Cao Ren was able to rely on his usual prestige to forcefully support the [-] Shouchun defenders who were underpowered.

After the Shouchun city wall was broken, they still entangled with Yuan Tan's [-] troops along the road in Shouchun city for half a day.

In half a day, except for a small number of Shouchun defenders who surrendered, most of them died on the battlefield.

This bravery and fortitude alone is enough for Cao Ren to win the respect of all the enemy generals.

Hearing Yuan Tan's praise, Cao Ren couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Once upon a time, he was good, Cao Cao was good, and even any reputable general in Cao Ying.

They didn't pay attention to Yuan Tan, a junior, especially after finding out about Yuan Tan's absurd actions in the military's secret work.

This disregard turned into extreme contempt.

However, following the defeat in the Battle of Guandu and the strong rise of Yuan Tan, Cao Ying paid more and more attention to the ability of the eldest son of the Yuan family.

Even Cao Ren couldn't figure out how Yuan Tan managed to soar into the sky.

After all, normal young people, at Yuan Tan's age, are full of vigor and unstoppable aspirations.

However, Yuan Tan, from the beginning to the end, always presented himself as a dandy, and he didn't know what he was afraid of.

Cao Ren took a deep look at Yuan Tan, shook his head, dispelled the complicated thoughts in his mind, and said slowly:
"The general of a defeated army does not dare to speak bravely, but seeks a battle to comfort his life."

From the moment Yuan Tan entered Shouchun City, Cao Ren knew that he would never be able to escape.

This has nothing to do with his own ability, it is purely whether Yuan Tan, the enemy general, will give him a chance.

But the facts proved that Yuan Tan obviously did not intend to let the tiger go back to the mountain.

So Cao Ren was on the tower at that time, and after a short period of loss of mind and grief, he quickly organized his thoughts and made his own choice.

If he breaks through with that trusted general.

Yuan Tan, who was determined to keep Cao Ren in Shouchun, was determined not to let that trusted general go.

And Yuan Tan, who has the black horse in his hand and the most brave man in the world, if he directly pursues them.

Don't talk about Cao Ren, even the general he sent to report the news, it is difficult to escape this death.

Instead, he stayed in Shouchun City and used his life to stop Yuan Tan, but he could give the general who sent the letter a chance.

Fortunately, Cao Ren did not lose the bet.

In other words, Cao Ren never expected from the very beginning that Yuan Tan didn't care that the information about the Tiger Crouching Pao was leaked.

Anyway, even if it was leaked, other princes would not be able to make ammunition, even the simplest gunpowder bomb.

Without the formula of gunpowder, it is simply impossible to cast it.

Moreover, Yuan Tan was not prepared to use the tiger squatting cannon many times from the beginning.

It was only by chance that Shouchun City became the cornerstone of the Tiger Crouching Cannon's fame.

"Very good, let's go, General!"

Seeing that Cao Ren's eyes showed a will to die, Yuan Tan didn't want to say any more.

Be it Xia Houyuan or Cao Ren, these Cao family members are all loyal to Cao Cao.

Persuading to capitulate or something is just a waste of words and time.

Therefore, after a brief conversation with Cao Ren, Yuan Tan stopped talking nonsense and jumped on the horse.

In an instant, the black horse burst out at a terrifying speed, carrying Yuan Tan like a black lightning bolt.

From Cao Ren's side, it suddenly passed by.

Cao Ren didn't even complete the movement of raising the knife, and his figure completely froze in mid-air!
A moment later, a spray of blood rose from the throat of his neck to the sky!

Cao Ying is an iron wall, Cao Ren Cao Zixiao.

On the evening of September 27th, he died in battle in Shouchun City!
When it is, the setting sun is like blood!

……

"What did you say?! Zixiao never came back after he died? Miaocai died in battle in Shouchun City. Now Zixiao's life and death are also unknown?!"

At this moment in Xudu, the atmosphere was dead silent.

Therefore, in the dead silence, Cao Cao's anger, shock and fear were mixed together, so that his voice was out of tune and distorted.

They all seemed extremely harsh.

The trusted general who was urgently sent back to Xudu by Cao Ren to report back to Cao Cao tried his best to bury his head.

Cao Cao, who was afraid of being enraged, would find any reason to cut off his head, and he would have been wronged too much.

Fortunately, although Cao Cao was annoyed, he was still able to maintain the most basic rationality.

After several deep breaths, Cao Cao finally managed to calm down, looked around at the many counselors present, and said in a deep voice:

"I intend to send troops to Shouchun to help Zixiao, to see if I can rescue Zixiao from the chaos."

In all fairness, Cao Cao's arrangement did not have many omissions.

After all, Cao Ren's position in Cao Ying is too important. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the mainstay. It can be said that he is the second most powerful general after Cao Cao.

If something really happened to Cao Cao right now.

In the case of Cao Ang's early death and Cao Pi's young age, if the Caoying Group wants to continue.

Cao Ren, who supported Cao Cao's family brother and was deeply loved by Cao Ying's soldiers, was the best choice.

But now the problem is...

"My lord, although General Cao Ren sent a message saying that the mysterious weapon used by the thief Yuan Tan to destroy the city is difficult to reuse, but our army is weak right now. If we rashly go to Shouchun to rescue, I am afraid that I will rescue General Cao Ren." If it doesn’t work, it will give Hebei an opportunity to take advantage of it!”

Immediately, Cheng Yu came out of the line, bowed and said.

Guo Jia on the side also coughed again and again, bowed to Cao Cao and said in a low voice:
"Prime Minister, please remain calm. Nearly two days have passed since Shouchun City was broken. If General Zixiao can escape, he will be able to leave the Shouchun theater sooner or later within two days. At most, he can return to Xudu in ten days."

The relationship between Guo Jia and Cao Cao can be said to be extremely close.

Therefore, it is difficult for Cheng Yu and others to say a lot of things, but Guo Jia can say them very straightforwardly.

Immediately, Guo Jia added another sentence:

"As for our army to rush to Shouchun now, it will take five days at the earliest. Five days plus two days is seven days. If General Cao Ren had to escape, he would have already escaped. When our army goes to Shouchun, it will be just a matter of time." The bamboo basket fetches water in vain."

"And if General Cao Ren hadn't escaped, I'm afraid he would have fallen into the hands of the thieves right now, or he would be killed or imprisoned, no matter what kind, it is not a problem that we can send troops to rescue and solve."

After speaking, Guo Jia bowed to the bottom again, and said in a deep voice:

"Yes, I ask the prime minister to suspend the worries and anger in my heart, and wait for the exact news to come back!"
