[Three Kingdoms] I am the queen of the Great Wei Dynasty

The army arrived in Wushou in May, and was preparing to leave the Binhai Road, cross Jieshi, and then attack Liucheng, the base camp of Wuhuan.

However, it rained continuously for months, and the heavy rain was flooding day by day. It was difficult for the army to move forward for a while, so they could only stay in place and wait for the opportunity.

Having been in turmoil with the army for many days, Guo Jia's body has deteriorated day by day as far as the eye can see, and his already weak body bones have become more and more like a porcelain vase as thin as a cicada's wings, as if it would break if pushed.

"Jijiu's disease... I'm afraid it will be difficult to cure. I can't find any effective prescription for treatment for a while. Forgive me..." The military doctor sighed hesitantly, "Now we can only live for one day. It's been a day."

He shook his head in embarrassment, A Sheng who was standing opposite him understood that he was speaking in a tactful way, but in fact he was afraid that there was really nothing he could do.

Guo Jia's camp tent next to him was suddenly raised, and Cao Cao slowly paced out from inside, lowering his head in thought, looking preoccupied.

Hearing A Sheng's voice, he raised his head to look at her, closed his eyes and said softly: "I just saw that the inside of Feng Xiao's lapel is full of blood. Even now he is still trying to hide his illness, still Smiling at me like I'm okay makes me feel more guilty."

"He came to me when he was more than [-] years old, and since then he has been fighting with me everywhere, from birth to death. How can he, a frail scholar, survive these tortures and bumps in the battlefield?"

His voice was so hoarse that he was soaked in the endless night of July, and the early summer wind blew lightly on his face, but the blow made his body shaky, and he couldn't even stand up.

"If something happens to him, I will never forgive myself in my life."

A Sheng looked at him silently, but couldn't say anything to comfort him for a while, and simply swallowed it back into his stomach.

In an instant, the sound of horseshoes approached gradually, and stopped in front of Cao Cao with a sound of "wow".

Then a warrior in full armor jumped off his horse, raised his hem and knelt on the ground, cupping his hands and said: "Sikong, the scouts in front have reported that Wuhuan is ready, and they are leading the army to deepen the city and strengthen the city defense. I'm afraid it will be difficult to break through."

The general has thick eyebrows and big eyes, about 40 years old, and his face is full of worries at the moment.

"Is this report true?"

"It's absolutely true. After Hong received the news, he sneaked to observe it himself. General Wuhuan is leading the troops to repair the antler camp. I'm afraid he already knew our army's intentions."

Cao Cao was silent for a few seconds, as if he was thinking about something, and then he said, "What suggestions do Zixiao and Yuan Rang have?"

Cao Hong raised his head hesitantly, frowned, and murmured again and again: "Sikong, brother Zixiao is always very cautious. He said that since Wuhuan is on guard, the enemy army is now taking advantage of their leisure time. In addition, the recent heavy rain has flooded the intersection. It is difficult for the army to move forward, and it is not too late to retreat now, and it will not be too late in the future."

"Retreat?"

"Master is not allowed!"

Suddenly there was a loud shout in the tent, and the people outside couldn't help but look inside in amazement, and found that Guo Jia hastily opened the curtain, and ran over barefoot on the cold ground without caring about his clothes. After standing still, he hastily bowed his head: "Retiring at this moment means that all previous efforts will be for naught. If Wuhuan is not eliminated for a day, Youzhou will be lost!"

He covered his face and coughed a few times, and then said: "My lord must understand the pros and cons, there is no need for Jia to say more."

Cao Cao's eyes were full of unbearable, he stepped forward to support the overwhelmed military division, took off his robe and put it on him.

Breaking off his shoulders, staring straight at his stubborn counselor, his tone was pitiful but tough: "Is Gu a person who quits halfway? If Feng Xiao doesn't care about his body like this, Gu will be annoyed, and go back soon." lie down."

Hearing this, Guo Jia's withered and thin lips twitched slightly, and smiled knowingly at the lord.

"promise."

He turned around and walked obediently into the tent.The back is slender and firm, like a butterfly at noon in summer. Even though its wings are wet with heavy dew and it is difficult to lift them up, it still insists on flying in the shade of willows.

"Guo Junshi... Take care of yourself." Cao Hong watched Guo Jia leave, and couldn't help sighing with emotion.

Cao Cao glanced at him: "Do you understand Zilian? Fengxiao means Gu, and don't mention the matter of retreating. Go back and tell Cao Ren and Xia Houyuan that you can't win the position of a mere Wuhuan. They might as well not sit."

"Yes yes yes!" Cao Hong replied hastily, bowing several times, "The general will always keep this in mind. Don't worry, Sikong, the general will definitely pass on your instructions."

Seeing his horse galloping away, Cao Cao came over and took Ah Sheng's wrist, and said, "Come with me for a walk outside."

She understood the worries in his heart, and couldn't help but clenched his arm with her right hand, touching the scorching temperature of her body through the armor.

"We will always encounter a lot of tribulations." She took a deep breath to make her voice sound calmer, "Didn't you say that fate is like an abyss, we all inevitably fall into it, everyone is The future is uncertain. So all we can do is cherish the present and come up with ways we can think of to face the future together.”

She said "we", not "you", not "I".

He was stunned for a moment, then looked at her: "Thank you."

His eyes are like countless stars floating and sinking to disperse ignorance, which seems to reflect the moonlit night in the sky at this moment, intertwined with the cold wind blowing on his face.

"It's just that it's hard for me to remain rational now, and I can't even calm down and think about the way forward." He whispered, "It doesn't sound like my style, does it? But the fact is that, it's far from what I want The closer everything you have, the more you lose than you gain."

"I can understand," she said.

The terrain here is relatively high, and the heavy rain did not form stagnant water here.The weeds under the feet are spreading vigorously, and there are dots of small wild flowers rushing among them. They can't be named, but they are interesting.

The wind was cold and cold, and it brought damp and cold moisture to her face, and she couldn't help coughing a few times.

"Is it cold?" Cao Cao wanted to take off his robe and give it to her, but suddenly remembered that he had just given it to Guo Jia, so he hugged her shoulders tightly, trying to block some of the cold wind for her.

"It's okay, I can hold on."

"It's only July, and Wuhuan is actually so cold."

"I heard that there is a custom in Wuhuan." When she mentioned this place, she seemed to think of something immediately, and sat down to rest on the trunk of a trifoliate tree. "After the people there die, relatives and friends will ask the shaman to guide their souls back to Chishan. , Burning all the clothes, thinking that the fallen leaves return to their roots."

"Unexpectedly, they pay great attention to the destination after death, and they are no different from us Central Plains people."

"This is human nature, just like an old horse knowing the way. It is born like this. In order for the soul to return to its homeland, no matter how poor people are, they will spend money to invite shamans to recite, and even kill the owner's dog for burial. It is also because of this intention."

"Is that shaman a wizard?"

"Yes." A Sheng nodded, "It is equivalent to the dancers they believe in, and they are the same as our Central Plains. When they encounter confusion and need to be cleared up, they will provide guidance and convey the will of God through righteousness."

"Guide..." Cao Cao murmured, for some reason, a clear light suddenly flashed in his gloomy eyes, and he suddenly said excitedly, "I know what to do."

Immediately, his eyes fixed on her, and he bent his lips into a smile: "Thank you Madam for reminding me."

He immediately grabbed A Sheng's wrist and ran back, as if he couldn't wait for a moment, she was pulled by him while running, and she cried out in surprise: "What are you going to do?"

The wind of the wilderness passes through the side of the body and the ears recklessly, lifting the light corners of the clothes, and the stars in the sky are far away across the night sky.

"Go to the shaman."

His voice was disturbed by the wind, making it hard to hear clearly.

"What are you going to do with the shaman?" But before she could ask any further, the two had already arrived at the camp.

Before he sat still, he winked at Mao Jie who was dealing with military affairs. The latter was so obedient, immediately put down the official document, and respectfully cupped his hands: "What's the matter, Sikong Huan?"

"Mao please take a hundred bolts of silk and ten loads of gold beads, and then go to the city of Wushang with the title of Marquis of Duting and invite someone here."

Mao Jie was puzzled: "Who?"

"Tian Chou Tian Zitai." He picked up the teacup and poured six ears for Ah Sheng, "The key to victory lies in him."

She took the teacup, her eyes met his, and she gave herself a meaningful smile.

When the eyes flickered, she immediately understood what he meant.

Now it was her turn to realize.

"Mr. Tian Chou has lived in western Liaoning for a long time, and he is very familiar with Wuhuan, but Sikong wants to invite him out of the mountain?"

"Exactly. Since the heavy rain has blocked the road and Wuhuan is prepared, Gu must make it unexpected. Gu is not as good as Wuhuan expected, but he needs a guide like Xun Tianchou if he wants to make a surprise attack on the trail." Guidance, the more difficult the mountain road is, the more Wuhuan will let down his vigilance, and Liucheng will fall into the hands of himself in a short time."

"Sikong is a great strategy, your subordinates should obey orders carefully." Mao Jie hurriedly bowed.

At this time, Cao Cao looked at A Sheng who was thinking silently, and sat across from her with a smile, watching her face: "Madam, would you like to take risks with your husband? Next, we will lead cavalry raids across the mountains overnight, Madam, are you afraid?"

"Why not." She played with the earrings of the teacup in her hand, and smiled back, "It is rare to encounter this adventure in one's life, and I finally caught it. It would be a waste not to go."

"I knew my wife was bold and would not back down willingly. But the road ahead is difficult, you must ride Chasing Wind and follow me closely, and you must not run around."

He paused, stared at her and continued: "In that case, you and I are considered dead."

"Who wants to die with you?" She rolled her eyes suddenly moody, dropped the teacup with a "bang", opened the curtain and left without looking back.

Tian Chou heard that he was recruited, and immediately ordered his subordinates to pack up and pack their luggage, and arrived in the camp within a few days.

Cao Cao ordered a few wooden signs to be erected beside the waterside road, and wrote a letter saying "It's summer and summer, the roads are impassable, and we will march again after autumn and winter", and quietly sent people to spread rumors in Liucheng that they were going to retreat.

Sure enough, Wuhuan fell for the trick and withdrew many lines of defense, thinking that Cao Jun had no intention of attacking again, so he immediately relaxed.

Unexpectedly, on the other side, Tian Chou was leading his subordinates as guides, leading Cao's army to drop their luggage and sneak out of danger quickly.

They climbed over Xuwu Mountain, exited the border and entered the upper valley of the Luan River, marched more than [-] miles in this difficult area, turned eastward at Pinggang, crossed the pastureland of Xianbei, and entered the border mountains again.

"This is White Wolf Mountain." Cao Cao pointed down the mountain with his whip, and Ah Sheng looked in the direction he pointed, and saw a lush forest below, waves rising with the wind, and mountains in the distance rolling up and down, surrounded by a cool and empty atmosphere Between the nose and the whole body, there is a smell that belongs to forests and lakes.

The non-stop exhaustion of the past few days was swept away immediately, she breathed in the air here heavily, and even choked a few times.

Suddenly, thick smoke billowed from the foot of the mountain, bursts of dust and military flags came into view instantly, and loud shouts and beating drums came instantly.

"Report—" the scout ran up the mountain in a panic, "Sikong, the Wuhuan Army is here!"
