, couldn't even open his eyes, let alone fight to the death against the Wancheng defenders across the city gate.

Although the Wancheng defenders in the city were choked with tears and coughed due to the black smoke, after all, they were separated by a city gate, which was much better than Cao Jun who was in the city gate cave. In addition, Zhang Lie and others were leading the manpower

He arrived, seized this opportunity, thoroughly cleared away the things that were crowded at the city gate, and finally closed the city gate...

Pang Shanmin lay down under the battlements, looking at the rising flames and black smoke, wiping the snot and tears on his face with his sleeves, and then realized that he had cut his arm at some point, and not only was he in unbearable pain

, the blood is dripping even more, and has already soaked half of the sleeve...

If there was such an injury in normal times, Pang Shanmin might have called for the servants to protect him, and then he might have sat in the hall with a pale face to deal with the wound, but now Pang Shanmin only feels happy in his heart, even with the burning pain in his arm,

It seems to be even more enjoyable.

Defended!

Although it is said that if the suspension bridge is lost, it will face subsequent attacks and challenges, but after all, it is temporarily defended for now!

Pang Shanmin stood up with support, then looked back towards the city, smiling slightly. That direction was his home, with his family, so Pang Shanmin would still be here, even if it was his first time on the battlefield, he was a little clumsy, careless and

He is at a loss, but he will continue to fight and protect!

Xia Houyuan outside the city looked at the blazing flames and billowing black smoke, and let out a meaningless howl angrily. He rode his horse back and forth several times. Even though he was wearing a battle armor on the outside, he was still flesh and blood on the inside and could resist the same.

Unable to withstand the scorching flames and the invasion of black smoke, Xia Houyuan could only give the order with extreme reluctance and retreat in frustration. He could only reorganize the offensive after the flames were extinguished...

Fire does not distinguish between good and evil. Originally, humans used flames to keep warm, bake food, and even drive away wild beasts to protect themselves. Then humans later learned to set fire to kill people, to eliminate traces when destroying corpses, and to eradicate the roots...

Near Bishui, a troop of troops was stationed.

Cao Cao looked at the Cao family's banner above his head and was speechless. What did he want to do when he formed the army? Oh, now that I think about it, I almost forgot...

The wind blows from the north.

The cold wind in autumn always gets stronger and colder day by day.

Cao Cao was not wearing a helmet, and his slightly disheveled hair was fixed with hairpins, but his temples were still blown by the north wind, like the tentacles of an octopus, stretching out in all directions, most of which were black.

, but there are also some hair strands that are a little gray or even a little white.

A little cold.

Cao Cao rolled up his cloak and glanced sideways behind him. Behind him were Cao's soldiers and horses, doing various things nervously and orderly. Of course, these trivial things did not require Cao Cao to worry too much.

Well, when was the last time I did these trivial and complicated things? I forgot. It seems to have been a long time. It seems that when I was recruiting soldiers in Yangzhou, I personally arranged the queues and set up tents, even for those Yangzhou soldiers.

None of them had a good look on their faces, and he still kept a smile on his face and asked for help, in order to gather the morale of the soldiers as soon as possible and make those Yangzhou soldiers listen to the command as soon as possible...

Then what about those Yangzhou soldiers? Cao Cao suddenly laughed and his eyes became slightly colder. He was the most attentive at that time and was so busy that he almost worshiped those Yangzhou soldiers as uncles. As a result, in one night's work, these cheap uncles Yangzhou

The soldiers howled at night and escaped in one breath!

That year, that day, it seemed to be so cold.

People from Jiangdong and soldiers from Yangzhou are not good people! Cao Cao gritted his teeth, and he would have to settle the score sooner or later! As soon as Cao Cao finished thinking about this, he couldn't help but smile. After so many years, he is still a cautious person.

, but, it has changed a lot over the years, hasn’t it?

When recruiting Yangzhou soldiers, all the money used belonged to Cao Hong. Cao Hong took out almost all his assets, sold everything, and was completely ruined by those Yangzhou soldiers...

Even so, Cao Hong never complained. Cao Cao remembered that at that time, he was just like he is now, sitting on a stone without a helmet, with his messy hair blowing in the wind. Cao Hong stood behind him, smiling.

He said, as usual, "Brother, it's okay, we'll come back again! Don't worry about money matters, I'll figure it out later!"

Cao Cao wrinkled his nose and felt a little uncomfortable. So for so many years, even if Cao Cao knew that Cao Hong's family was somewhat of a bastard, he still turned a blind eye.

Those who had experienced it at that time also believed that some of Cao Hong's current behavior of amassing money were probably leftover from his mental illness at that time, so they basically said nothing.

Even this time, Cao Hong was responsible for researching imitation armor, but it ended up being purchased...

Purchased hussar armor!

Why!

Cao Cao didn't even know what to say...

This big man is riding a horse!

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes slightly, remembering that time when the sun was shining brightly and was much warmer than now, Fei Qian was holding the wooden box carefully outside the gate of Cai Yong's house, not even daring to look at him.

.If I had known at that time that Fei Qian would become like this, would I have simply stabbed him to death with a bamboo stick?

Haha, well, that was Fei Qian’s fake bamboo stick.

Cao Cao suddenly remembered the conversation he had with Fei Qian later. He recalled that Fei Qian once meaningfully said that "the world" is very big and that he wanted to go "outside" to see it. Now, Ziyuan, you have already set your sights on the outside.

, are you ready to take a look outside the cave? So you didn’t even come this time, and just sent Taishi Ci and Xu Huang? Do you underestimate me, or do you no longer care about the gains and losses here?

In the distance, where the wind was blowing and the grass was blowing, three or two Cao Jun scouts came on horseback, bringing with them the dust from the wind and rolling down in front of Cao Cao.

"Report! Fancheng has sent troops to Wancheng!"

Cao Cao nodded, then picked up the bag with his backhand, clasped the messy hair and thoughts under the bag, tightened the ribbon, stood up proudly, raised his arms, and waved forward: "Send the order! March!"
Chapter completed!
