Chapter 426 I Want to Kill Cao Mengde
Luo Jiu: "Did Yuan Shao give it to you?"
Fu Bao smiled and said, "He rewarded me with a thousand gold coins and also gave me a set of armor."
Luo Jiu nodded, "You are the greatest contributor to this battle, he rewarded you, firstly to show his love for talent, and secondly to show his kindness as the leader of the alliance.
But what he thinks is his business. No matter what his selfish motives are, you have benefited, and Second Mother is happy for you."
Fu Bao chuckled, "What did you say to Cao Cao?"
Luo Jiu said: "I advise him to retreat once he reaches Xingyang, and be careful of ambushes."
Fu Bao was stunned. "Isn't this the content of the original novel? I remember that he was lying in ambush outside Xingyang City. If he had listened to it and suffered less setbacks, would he have become stronger faster and become our formidable enemy?"
Luo Jiu smiled and shook his head, "How could he listen? If he listened, he would not be Cao Mengde."
Fu Bao was even more curious now, "Since Second Mom knew he wouldn't listen, why did she tell him?"
Luo Jiu smiled and looked at her, "Because I also have selfish motives. I want him to know that my predictions are correct time and time again, and my judgment ability is far better than his.
I hope that one day he will accept his fate, that he cannot defeat me, and can only submit to me."
Fubao took a deep breath and sighed: Your minds are too complicated, I'm tired for you.
The two led the team back to the camp at Hulao Pass, where Feng Qi was on patrol.
Luo Jiu asked: "Is there anything unusual?"
Feng Qi said: "Everything is fine. I even picked up a few lost horses. By the way, Cao Cao just led his troops there.
He asked me if I could accompany him to hunt down Dong Zhuo. I said that we were all surrendered soldiers and I was afraid that if I left, someone would rebel. He smiled and left.
Luo Jiu chuckled, and he guessed that Cao Cao was also speechless.
Feng Qi asked again: "Can he use the emperor to control the princes this time?"
Luo Jiu said: "Not this time. He couldn't catch up with Dong Zhuo this time. He was ambushed and chased to death."
"So miserable?" Feng Qi felt a little sorry for what he said, "I really think he's a good guy."
Luo Jiu smiled and said, "Who do you think is bad?"
Feng Qi said: "Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, I am fed up with them. And those princes who are always being sarcastic and looking down on us, I wish I could beat them up.
But I think Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Jian are okay, and they even gave us gifts."
These people who will achieve great things in the future, although they have not yet established any achievements, it can already be seen that they are different from ordinary people.
Luo Jiu nodded and said, "Yes, it's easy to be merciful. Why don't you go and take a look, rescue him, and let him owe us a favor."
So Feng Qi borrowed the Red Hare from Fu Bao and chased after him.
Cao Cao was chasing Dong Zhuo overnight. When he was about to reach Xingyang City, Cao Cao hesitated. Cao Hong asked hurriedly, "My lord, why are you hesitating?"
Cao Cao then told him what Luo Jiu had told him, and Cao Hong said, "General Luo is quite wise. In that case, let's go back."
Cao Cao shook his head. "No, that's not right! Why did she say that she would stop chasing after him if she couldn't catch up with him in Xingyang?"
Cao Hong said: "It's a long way from here. If we can't catch up here, then there's no need to chase."
Cao Cao chuckled, "You are totally wrong. The long distance here is the key to victory. We have already chased Dong Zhuo to Xingyang, and he still can't get rid of us. After Xingyang, they will have nowhere to rely on and will definitely fall into my hands. Luo Jiu is afraid that I will get the emperor before her. Haha, how could I fall into her trap?
Quick! Chase after him and capture Dong Zhuo alive!"
As a result, he was naturally ambushed and was chased by Lu Bu.
Luo Jiu slept until midnight, when he was awakened by the night duty sergeant, "Madam, Cao Cao has led his troops back to escape."
Luo Jiu quickly stood up and went outside the tent to see that Cao Cao was in such a miserable state, with only some wounded soldiers around him.
Cao Cao's clothes were torn, his hair was disheveled, and his face was covered in black and gray patches. It was obvious that he had been beaten badly.
When he saw Luo Jiu, Cao Cao immediately knelt down and kowtowed.
Luo Jiu hurriedly asked: "Meng De, what are you doing?"
Cao Cao said, "We were chased by Dong Zhuo, and the rest of our troops have all fled. These personal soldiers who escorted me out were all injured. We have no war horses, and we really don't have the strength to run back to Chenliu. Can you borrow your precious land to rest for a night, so that they can bandage their wounds and catch their breath for a while?"
Luo Jiu secretly sighed and thought: Cao Cao is really good at winning people's hearts. If I were the soldiers behind him, seeing him kneeling for us, we would want to block a few more swords for him.
Luo Jiu hurriedly said: "Why not? These are all heroes. Come! Bring the medicine box, I want to apply medicine to them personally."
Luo Jiu secretly swore: I will kill Cao Mengde!
Cheng Yaoyao and Zhong Jialing came out quickly and helped to settle Cao Cao and the wounded soldiers.
At this time, Cao Cao didn't want to sleep anymore, so he sat outside and warmed himself by the fire with them.
Fu Bao asked Cao Cao curiously, "Lord Cao, didn't my mistress tell you not to chase us to Xingyang and be careful of ambushes? How did you still fall into an ambush?"
Cao Cao's face flashed with embarrassment, and he said, "General Luo's words were good advice to me, so how could I not listen? I didn't expect Dong Zhuo to be so cunning and set an ambush before I even arrived in Xingyang, so I fell into his trap."
Fu Bao was surprised and asked, "Ah? There are ambushes before we even reach Xingyang?"
Luo Jiu smiled faintly and thought: This silly kid took it seriously. Cao Cao is just being stubborn and lying.
Cao Cao was afraid that they would ask more questions if he stayed, so he quickly said he was tired and went back to the camp to sleep.
But Luo Jiu was a little confused. Where was Feng Qi? She went to save Cao Cao, but Cao Cao had already run back. Who did she save?
At this time, Chen Gong came out and advised, "Madam, you have been working hard for days, go and rest. General Cheng and Zhong Zhubu should also go to sleep. I have slept for a while and am waiting for General Feng to come back."
So Luo Jiu and the other two returned to the camp. After a while, Fu Bao finished patrolling everywhere and also returned to the camp to rest.
At daybreak, Chen Gong suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves. He stood up and saw that it was Feng Qi.
He hurried over and asked, "Where has General Feng gone? Cao Cao has brought his men back and is resting in our camp."
Feng Qi hurriedly asked, "Is Cao Cao here? Keep your voice down. I have something important to tell you. Please listen to me closely."
She whispered something in Chen Gong's ear, and Chen Gong's eyes widened in fear. "Really?"
Feng Qi gestured at the package on his back and whispered, "Take me to see the mistress."
Chen Gong brought Feng Qi to the outside of Luo Jiu's tent. Feng Qi walked in quickly and immediately woke Luo Jiu up, "Wake up! I brought the emperor back to you!"
Luo Jiu was so shocked that he almost fell off the bed. "What nonsense are you talking about? How is this possible?"
Feng Qi tied the package behind him and said, "It's absolutely right. I caught him by accident. He is right here."
At this time, Chen Gong was stamping his feet outside the tent anxiously, and asked hurriedly: "Madam, can I come in?"
