Chapter 27

The crescent moon was setting in the west, the night was dark, and the city of Chencang was silent.

Zhuge Liang stood on the top of the majestic city, frowning in thought.

Ma Di was also in deep thought, but because he disobeyed the military order twice, Zhuge Liang pushed him to the end and suppressed him.And depending on the situation, this difficult situation will continue for a long time.

It could be months, or even years.

Isn't it a waste of talent for the prime minister to do this?

Although in the Shu army controlled by the prime minister, everything must be subject to the will of the prime minister, no second voice is allowed, and no generals are allowed to make their own decisions.

But he will be outside, Shuai Ming will not accept it.

Precise response is the kingly way!

Unable to figure it out anyway, Ma Su shook his head and calmed down.

Forget it, since ancient times, among those amazing and brilliant figures, which one didn't rise and fall three times, only to achieve positive results?

For example, Sima Yi...

I'm just going up and down, don't panic.

……

In the third watch, outside Chencang city.

Several of the soldiers around Cao Zhen yawned subconsciously, and the horses lying on the ground also snorted irritablely and pawed the ground repeatedly.

After squatting for most of the night, there was no movement in Chencang City.

Both man and horse were troubled.

Cao Zhen also yawned for a long time, holding back the waves of drowsiness, looked up at the stars in the night sky, guessed that the time seemed to have passed the third watch, and then slapped his son Cao Shuang who was dozing aside , got up and waved his hand, signaling the soldiers to withdraw to the camp.

The military orders were passed down layer by layer, causing waves of commotion in the darkness.

Some people drew their swords out of their sheaths in a panic and looked around, thinking that the Shu army was coming;

On the way back to the army, Wei's army appeared scattered and disorganized.No longer able to maintain the orderliness when they came, even the high morale sank to the bottom.

Everyone turned their backs and rolled their flags, and walked back with their heads bowed.

If it weren't for the prestige of the governor Cao Zhen in the army, they would have complained in their hearts, complaining that "one general is incompetent, and the three armies are exhausted to death".

Not honestly staying in Dazhai to sleep in the middle of the night, but running out to suffer...

What picture?

Even Cao Zhen himself had an ugly expression on his face.

There is no reason, Zhuge Liang has no reason not to come and rob the village!

Could it be that the governor was wrong?

How can this be?

While doubting his life, he suddenly heard the sound of heavy footsteps behind him, from far to near, coming very fast.

Da da da--

Da da da--

Cao Zhenxin was startled, his face turned pale instantly, tried his best to control his panic, and turned around to look far away.

With the faint light of the stars in the sky, he could barely recognize the army coming from behind, wearing Wei army uniforms and carrying the Wei army banner, with a big "Zhang" on the flag.

It seems that they are friends rather than enemies... Cao Zhen heaved a sigh of relief.

"Father, this...Which General Zhang's team is this? There may be more than 1 troops... No, there may be [-]!" Cao Shuang murmured with his eyes wide open.

The army of more than 2 people moved with great momentum, and the width of the army formation alone was several miles.

Even at night, you can still vaguely see a mass of darkness, boundless, like a monstrous ocean wave.

Cao Zhen suddenly realized something, and said anxiously: "Wait! Zhang... General Zhang?"

There is no general named Zhang under his command!

In fact, strictly speaking, there is still one general surnamed Zhang, Zhang He.

But Zhang He is in Longxi, not in Chencang!

Cao Zhen, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, raised his heart to his throat in an instant, exhausted all his strength, and shouted at the "Wei Jun" who rushed over: "Come on, stop!"

"Stop!"

"end……"

Seeing that the opponent was still rushing over regardless, Cao Zhen hurriedly shouted to the left and right: "The whole army meets the enemy!"

"Meet the enemy!"

Although Cao Zhen reacted quickly before the battle, the soldiers of the Wei army were also awakened by the sound, and they took out their tools one after another...

But it was still too late.

An indiscriminate, overwhelming wave of people roared and violently passed over ten thousand Wei troops.

Then pass through the formation and kill in the direction of Wei Jun Dazhai.

They didn't look back, nor did they return to the army to beat up the defeated Wei army who had been dispersed, and none of them said a word.

They just punch.

At the critical moment, Cao Zhen only had time to drag Cao Shuang to roll aside, pressed his son under him, and tightly covered his mouth with a big hand.

But Cao Zhen still felt that among the chaotic army, there were countless big feet trampling on him mercilessly from his body, face, and back.

Almost crushed his old waist.

Cao Zhen couldn't remember how much blood he spat.

Maybe ten, maybe twenty, or even more...

Cao Zhen felt that his head became more and more numb, and his vision became more and more blurred.

Even so, he still lay tightly on Cao Shuang's back to protect his son from being stepped on.

Although this son is very stupid and has no skills, he will leave his old father to live alone when he is in danger...

But this is already his best son.

How could he not be kind to protect each other!
……

People come and go faster.

After a strange encounter.

On the fragmented battlefield.

The surviving Wei soldiers moved their bodies, cried, and wept bitterly, complaining to their companions that "we were fucked by friendly troops."

The Wei army just now was extremely cruel, even their own people...

Is there still military law?Is there still Wang Fa?
Only Cao Zhen knew that this army was not a friendly army, but the Shu army.

Zhuge Liang is coming to sneak attack!
He guessed the beginning, but not the ending.

'Zhuge Liang... You won this time, but I, Da Wei, will not lose. '

'Although this governor fell, there are thousands of other governors standing up. '

'I, Dawei, will never lose! '

Thinking so, Cao Zhen, who was dying, let go of his hand, slipped powerlessly from Cao Shuang's body, lay on the ground, and listened to the sound of fighting coming from the direction of Dazhai not far away, opened his mouth, and his consciousness fell into darkness.

A chaotic battle.

……

Three days later, two hundred miles east of Chencang City, the Wei army camped.

Cao Zhen was lying on a simple plank bed, blood was constantly overflowing from the corner of his mouth, and that distorted face in pain showed a trace of indifference that could see through life and death.

He looked calmly at Cao Shuang who was waiting by the side, and said intermittently: "Shuang'er, you are still young, and my father is worried that you will not be able to convince the public, and you will not be able to stand in the court and lead the ministers."

Two of the four life-saving ministers left by the late emperor Cao Pi have died, leaving only Chen Qun and Sima Yi.

Next, it will be the time of his son Cao Shuang.

Is he okay?
Cao really didn't know.

In fact, there are two other worries that Cao Zhen refrained from saying. Compared to standing in court, he was more worried that his son Cao Shuang would not be Zhuge Liang's opponent or Sima Yi's opponent.

But when he thought that His Majesty Cao Rui had ordered Sima Yi to go to Guanzhong to resist Zhuge Liang, he suppressed this worry.

Maybe the two will fight to the death and lose both, that's unknown.

Sima Yi was nearly fifty, so he probably didn't have many years to live.

Thinking of this, Cao Zhen gradually felt relieved.

The only worry now is whether Cao Shuang can inherit his prestige and lead the Great Wei Dynasty.

After the sudden change, Cao Shuang suddenly calmed down a lot. With red eyes, he said firmly, "Father, please rest assured that all the officials in the court will listen to my command, and Great Wei will definitely be stronger than when you were here, Father."

Cao Zhen coughed heavily, looking at the bright red in front of his eyes, his eyes showed relief: "You have such confidence, you can rest assured as a father."

"What will you do if they don't obey your command and don't want to follow you?"

They...the court officials are all elite children of aristocratic families, and they have a lot of ideas.

Cao Shuang frowned slightly, but said nothing.

He was thinking about what to do when this happened.Is it killing, Huairou, or using other means.

Still too young Cao Zhen stretched out his hand with difficulty, patted Cao Shuang's hand who was afraid of him, and said the last advice: "Shuang'er, if they don't want to follow you, you can let them follow me!"

"Father, what do you mean by that?" Cao Shuang looked bewildered.

Cao Zhen did not explain further.

It's too late to explain.

He has to go.

He looked at Cao Shuang with nostalgia, and his arms slowly dropped.

Swing by the bed.

Seeing this, Cao Shuang suddenly understood the meaning of his father's last words.

 Thank you: the monthly pass for the governor of Pengcheng, the monthly pass for the decadent premonition, the monthly pass for 16031107...

  Thanks: Yuan Gangzhen's two monthly tickets, and Aowao's two monthly tickets.

  thank!
