Three Kingdoms: Becoming Cao Cao's Chief Adviser at the Start

Chapter 166 The Battle of Chibi Ends, Lu Bu's Death

The battle at Chibi was extremely tragic.

Almost all of Lu Bu's army was annihilated, and Lu Bu was also killed in the battle, and Chen Gong was also shot and killed by the arrow in the sky.

The trapped camp and Gao Shun were captured on land, and Gao Shun wept bitterly as he watched Lü Bu's ship sink into the river.

The civil strife in Jiangdong caused Sun Quan to flee.

Except for the remnants of Liu Biao's old army and Cao Jun, Jingzhou did not have any other forces.

With no one to stop him, all Cao's troops crossed the river and entered Hanshou County, Wuling County, where Jingzhou ruled.

At this moment, the old Jingzhou army had already run out of troops, and they were all drained by Sun Quan and Lu Bu, and the same was true of the baggage.

There is no difficulty at all in capturing the remaining three counties.

In the administrative center, the counselors stood on one side.

The last person came slowly, and Cao Cao revealed a smile.

"Zijing, how is Ziyi's condition?

During the Battle of Chibi, Sun Quan's actions made Taishi Ci angry, and his old illness relapsed and he was bedridden.

Fortunately, Hua Tuo came with the army and treated him in time.

Lu Su looked at Cao Cao with a smile.

"Thank you lord for your concern, Ziyi is fine. 99

Cao Cao nodded.

"Everyone has arrived, so let's make arrangements for the next thing. 35

Although there is no interference from others in Jingzhou now, there are still old troops guarding it, and people will definitely be sent to recover it.

Looking at the line of generals, Cao Cao nodded.

"Dare to ask who is willing to take Changsha for me?"

As soon as this statement came out, they all rushed to be listed first.

Zhao Yun said directly.

"The last general is willing to lead three thousand troops to capture Changsha!"

Today, there are only a few thousand soldiers in Changsha. Zhao Yun knows that the city defense of Changsha County is relatively conservative.

Moreover, the recovery of the Jingzhou Nanjun three places is not necessarily hindered. Now that the Cao army is powerful, the weak and cowardly may surrender directly.

Guan Yu on the side was quite dissatisfied with Zhao Yun, and stepped forward lightly.

"The last general can take down Changsha with only five hundred school knives!"

Everyone showed a hint of surprise, Guan Yu was still arrogant, and he didn't expect to come up to compete with Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun also showed a hint of surprise, glanced at Guan Yu, and didn't say much.

Seeing that Guan Yu was arguing with Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei and Dian Wei didn't stand up, and even watched the play with a smile on one side.

Cao Cao looked at the two arguing, showing hesitation, but just when he was about to make up his mind.

Cao Yang, who was at the top of the strategist column, suddenly spoke up.

"My lord, I have thought of an excellent candidate."

At this moment, the surroundings suddenly became quiet, Zhao Yun and Guan Yu both turned their heads to look at Cao Yang and said at the same time.

"who?"

Everyone showed curiosity.

Is there a more suitable candidate than Zhao Yun and Guan Yu?

Even Cao Cao showed an interesting look and asked the same.

"Dare to ask who is here?"

Cao Yang shook his head with a hint of a smile.

"This man is not a strategist.

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked, it was not a counselor and a general?

Who would that be? It's impossible to let some literati come forward and curse at the outer slope of Changsha County.

What kind of siege method is this?

Cao Cao told everyone's doubts.

"Who is that!"

Cao Yang said with a light smile.

"Medical Saint Hua Tuo!

Countless people were surprised, never expecting Cao Yang to send this person.

Cao Yang showed a smile. In his previous life, Hua Tuo was suspected of dying by Cao Cao, but now he is reusing this medical saint.

You must know that nowadays only some common diseases can cause death, and now there are only two famous doctors available.

One is Hua Tuo and the other is Zhang Zhongjing.

In today's knowledge of medicine, it is called Fangji, and it is called cheap industry. Although Hua Tuo is not a medical sage, there are many people who want to ask him to take action, but he is not respected at all.

While Cao Yang respected him, Hua Tuo was naturally grateful.

Cao Cao couldn't help showing a strange color.

"Send Hua Tuo to attack the city?"

The others were all surprised and whispered, and only Zhuge Liang showed a smile.

Cao Yang shook his head.

"No!

"Han Xuan, the prefect of Changsha County, is not the most important person. 99

"Huang Zhong, the general under his command, is the top priority.

"This person is holding an iron tire bow, and his skills in archery can be said to be the pinnacle. 35

Cao Cao once again showed doubts.

"What's the relationship between Hua Tuo and Huang Zhong?"

"Or is it that Huang Zhong has a dark disease? 99

Apparently Cao Cao got the idea.

Cao Yang said with a smile.

"No, Huang Zhong has a son named Huang Xu. He has been frail and sick since childhood, and he must have suffered from malaria. If Hua Tuo did not say that he was completely cured, he would at least be able to prolong his life for a few years."

"Now our army is the general trend, and Liu Biao's old army has long been fragmented. 35

"Didn't you find a red blood saber when you pacified Nanjun a few days ago?

"It's better to give it to Huang Zhong as a gift, and then ask Hua Tuo to help, and he will definitely surrender."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone realized it. It turned out to be the case. This is the "method of siege" that the military division said!

Cao Cao nodded and said in a deep voice again.

"Since that's the case, who would be willing to take it for me in Lingling County?"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone's eyes paid a little attention.

Lingling was originally intended as a retreat for Lu Bu's army. Lu Bu left behind many soldiers, and all he took away were sailors.

But there was no way out of the battle at Chibi, and the fifty thousand soldiers stayed here forever.

Now that Lu Bu's forces have completely disappeared and have withdrawn from the struggle for the world, these soldiers have been taken by Liu Du, the prefect of Lingling.

But that's all, the same countless soldiers came forward to ask for their names.

"The last general, willing to go there for the lord!"

"I only need 30,000 elite soldiers to take down Lingling."

"In Lingling County, I can get a certain Guan."

Cao Cao nodded and looked to the side.

"Master, what do you think about this battle?

Everyone turned their attention to the column of Cao Yang and Kong Ming.

"Master, let me go! 39

That Zhang Fei was still shouting hurriedly.

Guan Yu on one side glanced at him before he became honest.

I am quite impressed with this Lingling Cao Yang, not for other reasons, just because this Lingling Liu Du has a general Xing Daorong.

Cao Yang had also heard that Xing Daorong and Lu Bu did not lose their lives in the battle, and he was a little curious about this general.

"I want to go and see for myself, I heard that Lingling has beautiful scenery.

Everyone showed a strange look. What other beautiful scenery is Lingling? Isn't the scenery in southern Hunan all the same.

But it was relieved for a moment, how could a person like the military division be compared with these rough people.

Cao Cao was also a little curious and didn't ask much, whether Cao Yang's shot would be successful or not.

"Okay, since that's the case, everyone is ready to start moving."

Now that Jiangdong has retreated and Lu Bu has been wiped out, he doesn't want to cause any trouble.

Naturally, I want to quickly win Jingzhou and make a foregone conclusion.

After the discussion was over, Cao Yang did not immediately go to order troops and generals, but handed it all over to Zhuge Liang.

He called to his personal guard Xu Chu.

"Zhongkang follows me to the prison."

Cao Yang was very concerned about Gao Shun who was captured alive.

Only Gao Shun could control the trapped camp, and even though Lu Bu was brave but not talented, this elite group could not be used to the best of his ability.

Even though the prestige of the trap camp is still so far-reaching, it is rumored that the trap camp is the first pawn, and Cao Yang naturally covets it.

However, Gao Shun was a dutiful person and never drank alcohol. He was also extremely loyal to Lu Bu in his previous life. After Lu Bu died, he would rather die than surrender.

But now Cao Yang wants to give it a try, because he has a characteristic that increases the probability of recruiting and surrendering the enemy.

Xu Chu showed a smile and followed Cao Yang's pace.

"I don't know who the sergeant wants to see?

Cao Yang said lightly without pausing in his footsteps.

"Gao Shun. 35

Cao Yang had no idea whether he could recruit Gao Shun or not, but he just had the mentality of giving it a try.

However, it can be clearly seen that the armor of the seven hundred trap camps is excellent, each of them is brave and good at fighting, and they are extremely obedient to orders.

If Guan Yu and Zhang Feisheng hadn't captured Gao Shun, the 700 trapped camp would have lost many soldiers of Cao's army.

Under the leadership of Xu Chu, Cao Yang soon came to the prison.

Just after the war, in this prison, all were prisoners.

However, for these Cao Yang, he went straight to the deepest place without any regard for it.

The cell here is not as narrow and crowded as the other cells, even damp, cold and smelly.

Instead, the arrangement here is like a comfortable bedroom, with tables, chairs, water, food, and even a quilt on the bed.

And Gao Shun was there, his hands didn't even carry shackles.

I saw him staring blankly, sitting there in a daze.

Seemingly aware of Cao Yang coming, he raised his head and said,

"If the military advisor is here to persuade surrender, then please come back. 35

Cao Yang showed a smile, this Lu Bu is already dead, this Gao Shun is as expected, I am afraid that it is not easy to recruit and surrender, it is a tough bone.

"Zhongkang, open the prison door."

Xu Chu nodded, he had already obtained the key from the jailer.

And with him around, how could Gao Shun, who was just an unarmed man, move the military advisor. As Cao Yang's personal guard, Xu Chu still had this confidence.

"Crash!" The sound of the chain sounded.

Cao Yang took Xu Chu into the prison door.

After watching the two come in, Gao Shun just looked up and ignored it.

Cao Yang smiled again.

"If I want to persuade you to surrender, why didn't I find your former friend Wen Yuan?"

At this time, Gao Shun raised his head, and Godless eyes were filled with a strange color.

He looked at Cao Yang aggressively.

"What did the military officer come to do?""

‘Want to control that trapped camp?

Gao Shun chuckled lightly and didn't say more.

It was only for a moment that Gao was stunned by the way.

Because Cao Yang still shook his head and responded.

"Not those things."

Gao Shun's eyes wandered over Cao Yang, revealing a strange color and sneered.

"Neither did you come to recruit me, and you didn't come to ask for the camp, then why did you come here? 35

"Come and laugh at me, Gao Shun, in such a situation?"

Cao Yang shook his head again and said.

"I specifically asked the Prime Minister to let you out of prison for a day.

Hearing this, Gao Shun looked strange again.

What the hell was Cao Cao's chief military officer doing, he couldn't help asking.

"What kind of medicine do you sell in your candied fruit?

Cao Yang said with a sigh.

"I am also a little saddened by the death of Wenhou.

It was obvious that after Cao Yang said this, Gao Shun fell silent.

However, Cao Yang ignored Gao Shun's silence and continued.

"Wenhou I was extremely brave, even though he died in the last battle on the river, he did not lose. 39

"How can the corpses of such heroes be silent in the Yangtze River?"

Hearing this, Gao Shun raised his head, showing an incredible look, and looked at Cao Yang.

Cao Yang still said to himself.

"After the battle that day, I specially sent tens of thousands of soldiers who were well versed in water to the river to salvage."

"It took three days and three nights to salvage Wenhou's body. 99

“Now he is buried not far from Hanshou County. 35

"If you want, go and worship.

Cao Yang, who wanted to continue talking, was interrupted by Gao Shun's cry.

I saw Gao Shun's eyes filled with tears, and he burst into tears. He knelt on the ground and bowed to Cao Yang.

"Thank you, Gao Shun, Sergeant!

"This kind of grace, Gao Shun will keep in mind, there is no way to return it!

Cao Yang sighed and shook his head, also slightly affected by Gao Shun's mood.

"Zhongkang, take him there." 9

Although Xu Chu also had some feelings, he still shouted loudly at this time.

"Cry ass, man, man, don't be like a bitch.""

Gao Shun's mood was obviously stabilized by Xu Chu's few words.

When he walked out of the prison, he bowed to Cao Yang again, and then followed Xu Chu.

Only then did Cao Yang reveal a smile. Although he didn't even mention the matter of surrendering, he had the answer, and Gao Shun would definitely surrender to Cao.

This progress is much faster than I imagined.

From the beginning, he knew that if he wanted to get Gao Shun down, he would have to salvage Lu Bu's body. Although this was labor-intensive, it could win people's hearts.

As expected by Cao Yang, Gao Chuan was immediately moved. Since Gao Shun surrendered, this trapped camp will inevitably be surrendered.
