Three Kingdoms: Five-year-old Chibi offering poison, shocking Cao Cao

After getting off the handsome boat, the breeze on the river was blowing.

Cao Rui could not help but feel at ease both physically and mentally.

"Little boy, what should we do next?"

Zhang Liao couldn't help but said curiously.

Although this trip is to fight Jiangxia with Cao Rui.

But right now he doesn't know anything about Cao Rui's thoughts.

It is impossible to directly lead the army to Jiangxia, right?

"Don't worry, first send a scout to tell General Wen to retreat and join us."

"After meeting, get up and go back to Jiangling."

Cao Rui spoke indifferently.

Hearing this, Zhang Liao couldn't help but be stunned for a moment:

"Why is this little boy?"

"If you let General Wen retreat, wouldn't that release Liu Bei's army from Jiangxia?"

"Going to Jiangling at this time, I'm afraid something is wrong."

Although Cao Cao has ordered, he has full authority to obey Cao Rui's dispatch.

But with such a risk, Zhang Liao couldn't help reminding him.

Cao Rui smiled indifferently and said:

"General Wen Yuan can rest assured that even if General Wen does not retreat, our army will encounter Liu Bei's ambush when we go to Jiangxia."

Zhang Liao nodded thoughtfully:

"So that's the case, then..."

"Wait, what did the young master just say?"

"On the way to Jiangling, will you meet Liu Bei's ambush?!"

When he came back to his senses, Zhang Liao almost vomited out a mouthful of old blood.

Cao Rui didn't say it, but Zhang Liao didn't understand it.

Knowing that there is an ambush and still going forward, isn't this a death sentence?

"Wen Yuan, don't be impatient, you might as well listen to the young master."

"It's not like I haven't seen the cleverness of the young master. He naturally has his reasons for doing so."

At this moment, Xu Huang said.

Compared to Zhang Liao, who is more impatient, Xu Huang appears to be much more stable.

This is one of the reasons why Cao Rui chose to take Xu Huang with him.

Cao Rui smiled slightly:

"Do you know why Liu Bei set up an ambush on the only way to Jiangling?"

"It's because Liu Bei believes that our army will be defeated!"

"They want to block the way to Jiangling when our army is defeated, and kill my eldest father here."

Hearing Cao Rui's firm words, the three generals looked at each other.

Although I don't know why Cao Rui is so determined.

But after Cao Rui said this, everyone immediately understood why Cao Rui wanted Wenpin to withdraw.

Did Cao Rui want to use himself as bait to lure Liu Bei's army out of Jiangxia?

But this is just speculation. Except Cao Rui himself, no one can know what he is thinking.

"Since the young master said so, I will act as ordered!"

Xu Huang said in a deep voice, and when he finished speaking, he called for the scouts to come.

"General Zhang, there is one more thing you need to do."

Cao Rui nodded slightly and said solemnly:

"Tear down the flag of our army, and then ask the soldiers to make the armor as old as possible."

"Better put some dirt on your face."

Zhang Liao originally thought that there was some crucial task to be entrusted to him.

Hearing this, he immediately said in confusion:

"Little son, our army has won a big victory, and the morale is booming, why should we throw away the flag?"

"If that's the case, isn't it self-defeating morale?"

Regardless of morale, the flag is the soul of the army!

Throwing the flag of a general in battle will be severely punished according to military law!

Zhang Liao understood that Cao Rui came up with a strange plan, but it was not necessary, right?

Cao Rui glanced at Zhang Liao and said indifferently:

"Have the general ever seen the defeated division still hold the flag high and march forward?"

"If you are an ambush soldier, would you dare to fight when you see this team?"

Hearing this, Zhang Liao immediately understood:

"The last general takes orders!"

After all, Zhang Liao gritted his teeth, got up and tore the flag down.

After Xu Huang came back, Cao Rui ordered Xu Huang to lead 3,000 soldiers into an ambush.

And he only needs to bring 2,000 people and horses to walk on the avenue.

"Little son, this is too risky."

After leaving, Xu Chu said all worriedly.

He was not afraid of an ambush by the enemy.

The big deal is over.

But there is still Cao Rui in the army!

If a fight really broke out, the sword and spear would have no eyes, and only two thousand soldiers would guard him.

If I hurt Cao Rui, how should I go back to the Prime Minister?

Cao Rui smiled indifferently:

"General Xu, don't worry."

"Look, the path ahead is luxuriant, but extremely narrow."

"If there is an ambush, how many people can be accommodated at most?"

Xu Chu narrowed his eyes and looked intently.

There are many hiding places on this road, but it is really narrow.

"If there are Tibetan soldiers here... I'm afraid there are at most a thousand people."

Xu Chu murmured.

Thinking about it this way, it seems that the odds are quite good.

After some preparations, Cao Rui pretended to be defeated and led the army to march quickly along the path.

The leaves rustled, and the silence in the forest was terrifying.

Xu Chu raised his spirits 120,000 points, staring at the left and right, not daring to leave Cao Rui even half a step.

But after walking for a long time, there was still no sound around.

Xu Chu couldn't help frowning slightly, and became suspicious.

Then Liu Bei was trapped in Jiangxia by Wenpin, and the army could not get out.

Is there really an ambush here?

Just when Xu Chu was suspicious.

Suddenly, there was a rustling sound around.

Through the dark night, you can clearly see several figures flashing in front of you!

Xu Chu was suddenly startled, and hurriedly pulled out his big knife:

"There is an ambush!"

All the soldiers of Cao's army clenched their weapons tightly and were ready to fight.

Hearing Xu Chu shouting loudly, the ambush soldiers hiding on the left and right couldn't hold back any longer, and they emerged one after another.

"Changshan Zhao Zilong has been waiting here for a long time!"*
