Chapter 71 The Tragic Wen Chou!
Chapter 71 The Tragic Wen Chou!
Seeing Zang Ba step forward, Wen Chou was immediately delighted...
This person is easier to deal with than I imagined; a few words from him can easily provoke him.
Since that's the case, let's maximize its effect.
He rode up to them, looking down at Zang Ba. "Looks like... you're not entirely convinced!"
Zang Ba glared at him angrily, "You'd better know what you're doing!"
"Don't forget what Yuan Shao promised my lord, and who the food you're eating right now came from!"
"Hahaha!" Wen Chou laughed loudly, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
He raised his broadsword, pointed it at Zang Ba, and said, word by word, "That peasant begged my lord to give you the peace you have now."
"They don't really think that just because they produce some food, they can do whatever they want, do they?"
"Listen to me, you've got to give my lord whatever he wants!"
"That's the truth, understand?"
Anger gathered in his chest, Zang Ba clenched his fists, and tried his best to control his emotions.
There's no point in lashing out now; it will only give the other side an excuse to attack!
Suddenly.
A soldier ran up quickly, reporting in a panic that Cao Cao's army was approaching.
Wen Chou's expression changed drastically, and he abruptly turned his head to look northwest.
This area borders Cao Cao's territory, and his general Xiahou Dun was stationed near Kaiyang County.
Before the operation, Guo Tu and others repeatedly assured him that Cao Cao would not make a move.
He'll just sit back and watch the fight, and might even hope they win!
Is this guy playing me for fools?
To be on the safe side, Wen Chou ordered his men to restrain Zang Ba and the others.
Furthermore, a strict order was issued that nothing should be done to them; simply keep an eye on them.
Followed by.
He personally went northwest to confirm whether it was indeed the North Korean army that had arrived.
Zang Ba let himself be bound by ropes, his brows furrowed as he looked in the direction Wen Chou had disappeared.
Why would Cao Cao's men make a move?
Or... is there some other unexpected event?
……
It was several miles away from where Zang Ba was.
Lü Bu, along with Chen Gong and hundreds of cavalrymen, was running back and forth frantically.
They created a huge spectacle, as if a large army was about to attack.
Chen Gong was a great help in this plan!
Only he truly understood what kind of clothes Cao Jun wore and every other detail.
Li Zhao's task for them was simple: to direct the fire towards Cao Cao.
Zang Ba's geographical location was quite delicate, as it bordered Yanzhou.
According to his analysis, Yuan Shao was simply trying to extort more good things from him through this method.
It was also a form of protest, a fear that he would slip out of control and cause them to lose these benefits.
therefore.
Zang Ba and his ilk should be out of danger!
The only problem is how to cleverly redirect the fire.
Chen Gong volunteered to take charge of the overall plan, while Li Chao simply waited for the results.
I originally thought that Li Zhao would make arrangements in advance and would only adopt some of his suggestions.
Unexpectedly.
Li Zhao really handed over command to him!
At the same time, Lu Bu must be arranged to completely obey his demands.
Chen Gong had previously strived with all his might to achieve the results he had hoped for, but he never expected to succeed in this way.
"Sir, are you sure this will work?" Lu Bu led his troops around again before returning to the starting position.
Chen Gong stood with his hands behind his back, watching the dust swirling ahead, his eyes slightly narrowed. "Don't worry, he'll come and see no matter what!"
"Once they show up, the rest will be easy to solve!"
We had barely finished speaking when we heard some noise in the distance.
The cavalrymen appeared and disappeared in the distance. Chen Gong's eyes flashed, and he immediately ordered Lü Bu to proceed according to the original plan.
They mounted their horses simultaneously and sped off towards Kaiyang.
Wen Chou saw from afar that a large part of the army was returning in an orderly manner.
Based on their previous intelligence analysis, they made their judgment by observing the flags, weapons, and armor.
Those really were Cao Cao's troops!
Whether they take action or not, their presence here is a very dangerous sign.
In order to make an accurate judgment, after a brief hesitation, Wen Chou personally led his men to the location where Lü Bu and his men had previously been.
Analysis was conducted based on the dense hoofprints and marching marks on the ground.
There are at least a thousand people here!
"What the hell are these bastards up to?" Wen Chou stroked the hoofprints on the ground, rubbed his fingers together, and muttered to himself with a solemn expression.
"General! There's something here!"
A voice broke his thoughts, and he quickly got up and went to investigate.
Not far away, several soldiers were gathered together, looking at the anomaly on the ground.
There were still many hoofprints there, the only difference being that there was a slight bump.
It seems there's something buried inside, and they're planning to dig it out to take a look.
"Don't move..." Wen Chou immediately signaled everyone to step back.
Years of experience and keen intuition made him sense a dangerous atmosphere.
You absolutely must not touch anything in here!
At least wait until most people have left before sending someone to check!
To his surprise, similar sounds kept coming from afar.
It appears that the same problem has been found in many places.
"Immediately issue the order: no one is allowed to move. Anyone who spots this thing must retreat immediately!"
"If anyone disobeys orders..."
Before he could finish speaking, a deafening roar was heard!
"boom--"
The ground seemed to be trembling violently, and countless soldiers looked in horror toward the source of the noise.
The soldiers who had gathered there scattered like sand in all directions.
A heart-wrenching scream rang out!
Some of the soldiers lying on the ground had broken legs, their white bones exposed.
By the time some realized what was happening, his hand was already far away.
This horrific scene quickly triggered even greater chaos.
Those who were originally checking for anomalies unknowingly touched the ground that was already half-excavated!
The rumbling sound continued...
Within just a few breaths, hundreds of people screamed and fell to the ground.
For a time, this place was like a hellish battlefield.
Wen Chou roared, leaped onto his horse, and, wielding his broadsword, shouted for everyone to stay still.
Anyone who runs amok will be killed without exception!
He barely managed to control the situation through his absolute authority.
But the feeling of panic spread rapidly and uncontrollably.
Some people have already started trying to find a way to escape from here.
When war actually breaks out, perhaps no one will be afraid of dying.
But the unknown fear, and the horrific sight of those lying on the ground screaming in agony, were driving them to the brink of madness.
No!
We absolutely cannot die here!
It's unclear who started it, but more and more people began to flee in a frenzy.
What started as a simple desire to get away from this place eventually turned into an escape...
