Three Kingdoms: The identity of the financial master behind the scenes was exposed by Cao Cao

North of Fengcheng.

Xu Chu and Yan Yunwei were escorting carriages north along the avenue.

Mi Zhen remained silent and could only follow them northward.

There were too many carriages and they were not moving fast. By the time it was almost evening, they were only ten miles away from Fengcheng.

"If you want to take me to see your young master, I advise you to abandon these carriages. Don't be greedy for money. Instead, you will kill yourself, and you will also be implicated in killing me."

Mi Zhen, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.

Xu Chu was startled and turned to look at her:"Girl, what do you mean, why did I kill you?"

"If you kidnap me, my brother will definitely go to Xiaopei to report Liu Xuande. How can he just let it go? He will definitely send troops to pursue him."

"If you walk so slowly, you will be overtaken sooner or later, and we will start fighting. The swords have no eyes. What should I do if I get hurt? Mi

Zhen frowned and revealed the reason.

Xu Chu suddenly realized and shouted:"This girl reminds me, hurry up, speed up.""

Yan Yunwei immediately urged the carriage to move forward faster.

But the foot strength of these mules and horses pulling the carriage could not be compared to their red rabbit horses. No matter how fast they were, they could get nowhere fast.

At this moment, dust and mist rolled behind them, The sound of killing rumbled.

Xu Chu looked back and saw more than a thousand soldiers and horses chasing after him.

In the dust and fog, the flag with the word"Zhang" was faintly flying.

"It's that Zhang Fei who is chasing after him with his troops! Mi

Zhen raised her eyebrows and gave a clear drink.

Xu Chu rolled his eyes at her and muttered:"You are really a crow's mouth!""

After that, Xu Chu urged the chariot and horses to speed up again.

Less than a mile out, the pursuers behind him were approaching, and they were about to catch up. A fight was inevitable.

"I wouldn't be afraid if a hundred people came, but if a thousand people came chasing me at once, I might be a little overwhelmed....."

Xu Chu weighed it in his mind and had to order fifty carts of property to be abandoned, taking only Mi Zhen with him.

However, even if these belongings could not be brought back to Fengcheng, he would not leave them to Liu Bei, so he asked Yan Yunwei to set them on fire.

Yan Yunwei received the order and hurriedly lit torches and prepared to set fire.

A few hundred steps away.

Zhang Fei, who was running wildly, couldn't help but feel ecstatic when he saw that he had finally caught up.

"General Yide, no, they are going to set fire to it!"

Zhang Da, the deputy general beside him, shouted. Zhang Fei was startled and looked up, and sure enough he saw the torch in front of him was lit.

His heart suddenly skipped a beat.

The fifty carts of dowry were the entire Mi family's wealth, and his eldest brother had to support six thousand The life-saving straw for military expenses.

These dowries can be said to be more important than Mi Zhen, the sister-in-law.

If she is burned, what is the point of recovering Mi Zhen?

"Quick, rush forward and stop them from setting fire!"

Zhang Fei's eyes popped open and he roared excitedly.

More than a thousand soldiers of Liu Sgt. rushed forward regardless of everything.

But they didn't know that in the woods beside the road, countless pairs of fierce eyes were looking at them. Staring at them.

Like staring at prey caught in a trap

"My niece-in-law is indeed as Meng De said, there is nothing left to be said. Liu Bei indeed sent people to pursue him....."

Xia Houyuan, who immediately struck out with his sword, let out a heartfelt sigh.

Subsequently.

Xia Houyuan pointed his sword and shouted:"Crossbowmen, shoot arrows for me!"

The horn sounded.

Two hundred Cao Jun's crossbowmen who were ambushing in the forest immediately appeared.

Bent the bow and shoot the arrow!

There was a sudden sound of breaking through the air, and three hundred sharp arrows whizzed away.

The soldiers of Sergeant Liu who were running wildly were unprepared and were instantly pinned to the ground in pieces.

Screams came and went, and streams of blood rose into the sky.

"No, there's an ambush in the woods!"

"We've fallen into a trap!"

"Avoid arrows!"

The screams of the soldiers rang out, and the morale of the soldiers was suddenly frustrated and they were in chaos.

In the woods.

"

The second trumpet sounded immediately.

The remaining 800 infantrymen of Cao Jun appeared immediately, with a shocking sound of killing, pouring out of the woods and rushing towards the panicked Liu Jun.

Cao Jun attacked from two wings and collided in the blink of an eye. Xiang Liu Jun cut them into countless pieces.

Xia Houyuan took the lead and ran into the enemy army. He danced wildly with his sword and chopped off the heads one by one under the horse.

Zhang Fei was shocked and suddenly reined in his horse.

Looking at it , The soldier who was nailed to the ground looked at Cao Jun's troops descending from all directions. The anger on his face turned into shock and astonishment.

"There is an ambush hidden here!"

"Could it be that Cao Yuan, the boy, had predicted that his elder brother would send troops to pursue him and ambush his troops here in advance?"

Zhang Fei suddenly realized, and the shock on his face once again turned into deep surprise and confusion.

This series of plans were interconnected, and their every move was calculated accurately.

What a clever plan this is!

That one Cao Yuan was just an unknown official, how could he be so cunning?

Just when Zhang Fei was surprised and confused, Liu's soldiers had collapsed and fled like ants bursting from the nest.

Xiahou Yuan led Cao's army like a wolf driving sheep. Same, being killed on all sides

"General Yide, the situation is over, let's retreat quickly!"

Zhang Da, who was covered in blood, rushed forward to persuade him.

"Get rid of your mother! Zhang

Fei slapped Zhang Da in the face and cursed angrily:"My eldest brother and I have issued a military order. If we don't take back my sister-in-law and her dowry, do you want me to go back to see him with my head raised?""

Zhang Da covered his face in grievance, squeaking and not knowing what to do.

"Don't retreat, hold on for me!"

Zhang Fei roared and shouted, killing several defeated soldiers in an attempt to suppress the defeat.

To no avail.

Liu Jun, whose military morale was shattered, could not care about his threat and still ran away.

Countless Cao Jun troops were about to rush in front of him.

"Brother, it’s not that I don’t try my best to get my sister-in-law back, it’s that that little thief Cao Yuan is too cunning!"

"I still want to help you support the big man, how can I die here!"

Zhang Fei paved the steps for himself in his heart, gritted his teeth unwillingly, turned around and fled.

Liu Jun was defeated and fled south in a hurry.

But in front of the battlefield.

Xu Chu's eyes widened, looking at Cao Jun who suddenly came out, his eyes were full of excitement. The surprise was inexplicable.

Mi Zhen was also stunned, with eyes in disbelief.

Obviously, neither of them expected that an ambush of Cao's army would break out here.

The ambush was over in an instant.

Xia Houyuan also pursued Zhang Fei and ordered the generals to Fifty carriages escorted them away, and they rode horses to meet Xu Chu.

"General Xiahou!

Xu Chu's eyes lit up and he said happily:"Why do you appear here?""

"After you left, your son You Gongzi calculated that Liu Bei would definitely send troops to pursue him, so he asked me to lead my troops and make a double journey to set up an ambush here."

"Unexpectedly, every move of Liu Bei was accurately calculated by your young master."

"You young master You are really resourceful."

Xia Houyuan told the truth, with admiration in his eyes.

Xu Chu suddenly understood, and looked at Mi Zhen with a proud smile:"Girl, you have already thought of my young master. Now you can relax and go to see me in peace. I think he's my son-in-law."

At this time, Mi Zhen's face was pale, her eyes were shocked, and she was in a trance looking at the defeated Liu Jun.

"This Cao Yuan actually has such uncanny abilities. Could it be that he is the mysterious man behind Cao Cao as rumored?"

Mi Zhen's heart was shaken, and this idea suddenly popped into her mind.
